In the beginning of God's preparing the heavens and the earth --
field: 1001002
1
1
2
the earth hath existed waste and void, and darkness `is' on the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God fluttering on the face of the waters,
field: 1001003
1
1
3
and God saith, `Let light be;' and light is.
field: 1001004
1
1
4
And God seeth the light that `it is' good, and God separateth between the light and the darkness,
field: 1001005
1
1
5
and God calleth to the light `Day,' and to the darkness He hath called `Night;' and there is an evening, and there is a morning -- day one.
field: 1001006
1
1
6
And God saith, `Let an expanse be in the midst of the waters, and let it be separating between waters and waters.'
field: 1001007
1
1
7
And God maketh the expanse, and it separateth between the waters which `are' under the expanse, and the waters which `are' above the expanse: and it is so.
field: 1001008
1
1
8
And God calleth to the expanse `Heavens;' and there is an evening, and there is a morning -- day second.
field: 1001009
1

And God saith, `Let the waters under the heavens be collected unto one place, and let the dry land be seen:' and it is so.
field: 1001010
1
1
10
And God calleth to the dry land `Earth,' and to the collection of the waters He hath called `Seas;' and God seeth that `it is' good.
field: 1001011
1
1
11
And God saith, `Let the earth yield tender grass, herb sowing seed, fruit-tree (whose seed `is' in itself) making fruit after its kind, on the earth:' and it is so.
field: 1001012
1
1
12
And the earth bringeth forth tender grass, herb sowing seed after its kind, and tree making fruit (whose seed `is' in itself) after its kind; and God seeth that `it is' good;
field: 1001013
1
1
13
and there is an evening, and there is a morning -- day third.
field: 1001014

And God saith, `Let luminaries be in the expanse of the heavens, to make a separation between the day and the night, then they have been for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years,
field: 1001015
1
1
15
and they have been for luminaries in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth:' and it is so.
field: 1001016
1
1
16
And God maketh the two great luminaries, the great luminary for the rule of the day, and the small luminary -- and the stars -- for the rule of the night;
field: 1001017
1
1
17
and God giveth them in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth,
field: 1001018
1

and to rule over day and over night, and to make a separation between the light and the darkness; and God seeth that `it is' good;

1
1
19
and there is an evening, and there is a morning -- day fourth.
field: 1001020

And God saith, `Let the waters teem with the teeming living creature, and fowl let fly on the earth on the face of the expanse of the heavens.'
field: 1001021
1
1
21
And God prepareth the great monsters, and every living creature that is creeping, which the waters have teemed with, after their kind, and every fowl with wing, after its kind, and God seeth that `it is' good.
field: 1001022
1
1
22
And God blesseth them, saying, `Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and the fowl let multiply in the earth:'
field: 1001023
1
1
23
and there is an evening, and there is a morning -- day fifth.
field: 1001024
1

And God saith, `Let the earth bring forth the living creature after its kind, cattle and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after its kind:' and it is so.
field: 1001025
1

25
And God maketh the beast of the earth after its kind, and the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, and God seeth that `it is' good.
field: 1001026
1
1
26
And God saith, `Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness, and let them rule over fish of the sea, and over fowl of the heavens, and over cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that is creeping on the earth.'
field: 1001027
1
1
27
And God prepareth the man in His image; in the image of God He prepared him, a male and a female He prepared them.
field: 1001028
1
1
28
And God blesseth them, and God saith to them, `Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over fish of the sea, and over fowl of the heavens, and over every living thing that is creeping upon the earth.'
field: 1001029
1
1
29
And God saith, `Lo, I have given to you every herb sowing seed, which `is' upon the face of all the earth, and every tree in which `is' the fruit of a tree sowing seed, to you it is for food;
field: 1001030
1

and to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the heavens, and to every creeping thing on the earth, in which `is' breath of life, every green herb `is' for food:' and it is so.
field: 1001031

And God seeth all that He hath done, and lo, very good; and there is an evening, and there is a morning -- day the sixth.

1

1
And the heavens and the earth are completed, and all their host;
field: 1002002

and God completeth by the seventh day His work which He hath made, and ceaseth by the seventh day from all His work which He hath made.
field: 1002003

And God blesseth the seventh day, and sanctifieth it, for in it He hath ceased from all His work which God had prepared for making.
field: 1002004

These `are' births of the heavens and of the earth in their being prepared, in the day of Jehovah God's making earth and heavens;
field: 1002005
1
2
5
and no shrub of the field is yet in the earth, and no herb of the field yet sprouteth, for Jehovah God hath not rained upon the earth, and a man there is not to serve the ground,
field: 1002006
1
2
6
and a mist goeth up from the earth, and hath watered the whole face of the ground.
field: 1002007
1
2
7
And Jehovah God formeth the man -- dust from the ground, and breatheth into his nostrils breath of life, and the man becometh a living creature.
field: 1002008
1
2
8
And Jehovah God planteth a garden in Eden, at the east, and He setteth there the man whom He hath formed;
field: 1002009
1
2
9
and Jehovah God causeth to sprout from the ground every tree desirable for appearance, and good for food, and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
field: 1002010
1
2
10
And a river is going out from Eden to water the garden, and from thence it is parted, and hath become four chief `rivers';
field: 1002011
1
2
11
the name of the one `is' Pison, it `is' that which is surrounding the whole land of the Havilah where the gold `is',
field: 1002012
1
2
12
and the gold of that land `is' good, there `is' the bdolach and the shoham stone;
field: 1002013

2
13
and the name of the second river `is' Gibon, it `is' that which is surrounding the whole land of Cush;
field: 1002014
1
2
14
and the name of the third river `is' Hiddekel, it `is' that which is going east of Asshur; and the fourth river is Phrat.
field: 1002015

2
15
And Jehovah God taketh the man, and causeth him to rest in the garden of Eden, to serve it, and to keep it.
field: 1002016
1
2
16
And Jehovah God layeth a charge on the man, saying, `Of every tree of the garden eating thou dost eat;
field: 1002017
1
2
17
and of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou dost not eat of it, for in the day of thine eating of it -- dying thou dost die.'
field: 1002018
1
2
18
And Jehovah God saith, `Not good for the man to be alone, I do make to him an helper -- as his counterpart.'
field: 1002019
1
2
19
And Jehovah God formeth from the ground every beast of the field, and every fowl of the heavens, and bringeth in unto the man, to see what he doth call it; and whatever the man calleth a living creature, that `is' its name.
field: 1002020
1
2
20
And the man calleth names to all the cattle, and to fowl of the heavens, and to every beast of the field; and to man hath not been found an helper -- as his counterpart.
field: 1002021
1
2
21
And Jehovah God causeth a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he sleepeth, and He taketh one of his ribs, and closeth up flesh in its stead.
field: 1002022
1
2
22
And Jehovah God buildeth up the rib which He hath taken out of the man into a woman, and bringeth her in unto the man;
field: 1002023
1
2
23
and the man saith, `This `is' the `proper' step! bone of my bone, and flesh of my flesh!' for this it is called Woman, for from a man hath this been taken;
field: 1002024
1
2
24
therefore doth a man leave his father and his mother, and hath cleaved unto his wife, and they have become one flesh.
field: 1002025
1
2
25
And they are both of them naked, the man and his wife, and they are not ashamed of themselves.
field: 1003001
1

1
And the serpent hath been subtile above every beast of the field which Jehovah God hath made, and he saith unto the woman, `Is it true that God hath said, Ye do not eat of every tree of the garden?'
field: 1003002
1
3
2
And the woman saith unto the serpent, `Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we do eat,
field: 1003003
1
3
3
and of the fruit of the tree which `is' in the midst of the garden God hath said, Ye do not eat of it, nor touch it, lest ye die.'
field: 1003004
1
3
4
And the serpent saith unto the woman, `Dying, ye do not die,
field: 1003005
1
3
5
for God doth know that in the day of your eating of it -- your eyes have been opened, and ye have been as God, knowing good and evil.'
field: 1003006
1
3
6
And the woman seeth that the tree `is' good for food, and that it `is' pleasant to the eyes, and the tree is desirable to make `one' wise, and she taketh of its fruit and eateth, and giveth also to her husband with her, and he doth eat;
field: 1003007
1
3
7
and the eyes of them both are opened, and they know that they `are' naked, and they sew fig-leaves, and make to themselves girdles.
field: 1003008
1
3
8
And they hear the sound of Jehovah God walking up and down in the garden at the breeze of the day, and the man and his wife hide themselves from the face of Jehovah God in the midst of the trees of the garden.
field: 1003009
1
3
9
And Jehovah God calleth unto the man, and saith to him, `Where `art' thou?'
field: 1003010
1
3
10
and he saith, `Thy sound I have heard in the garden, and I am afraid, for I am naked, and I hide myself.'
field: 1003011
1
3
11
And He saith, `Who hath declared to thee that thou `art' naked? of the tree of which I have commanded thee not to eat, hast thou eaten?'
field: 1003012
1
3
12
and the man saith, `The woman whom Thou didst place with me -- she hath given to me of the tree -- and I do eat.'
field: 1003013
1
3
13
And Jehovah God saith to the woman, `What `is' this thou hast done?' and the woman saith, `The serpent hath caused me to forget -- and I do eat.'
field: 1003014
1
3
14
And Jehovah God saith unto the serpent, `Because thou hast done this, cursed `art' thou above all the cattle, and above every beast of the field: on thy belly dost thou go, and dust thou dost eat, all days of thy life;
field: 1003015
1
3
15
and enmity I put between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; he doth bruise thee -- the head, and thou dost bruise him -- the heel.'
field: 1003016
1
3
16
Unto the woman He said, `Multiplying I multiply thy sorrow and thy conception, in sorrow dost thou bear children, and toward thy husband `is' thy desire, and he doth rule over thee.'
field: 1003017
1
3
17
And to the man He said, `Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and dost eat of the tree concerning which I have charged thee, saying, Thou dost not eat of it, cursed `is' the ground on thine account; in sorrow thou dost eat of it all days of thy life,
field: 1003018
1
3
18
and thorn and bramble it doth bring forth to thee, and thou hast eaten the herb of the field;
field: 1003019
1
3
19
by the sweat of thy face thou dost eat bread till thy return unto the ground, for out of it hast thou been taken, for dust thou `art', and unto dust thou turnest back.'
field: 1003020
1
3
20
And the man calleth his wife's name Eve: for she hath been mother of all living.
field: 1003021
1
3
21
And Jehovah God doth make to the man and to his wife coats of skin, and doth clothe them.
field: 1003022
1
3
22
And Jehovah God saith, `Lo, the man was as one of Us, as to the knowledge of good and evil; and now, lest he send forth his hand, and have taken also of the tree of life, and eaten, and lived to the age,' --
field: 1003023
1
3
23
Jehovah God sendeth him forth from the garden of Eden to serve the ground from which he hath been taken;
field: 1003024
1
3
24
yea, he casteth out the man, and causeth to dwell at the east of the garden of Eden the cherubs and the flame of the sword which is turning itself round to guard the way of the tree of life.
field: 1004001

1
And the man knew Eve his wife, and she conceiveth and beareth Cain, and saith, `I have gotten a man by Jehovah;'
field: 1004002
1
4
2
and she addeth to bear his brother, even Abel. And Abel is feeding a flock, and Cain hath been servant of the ground.
field: 1004003
1
4
3
And it cometh to pass at the end of days that Cain bringeth from the fruit of the ground a present to Jehovah;
field: 1004004
1
4
4
and Abel, he hath brought, he also, from the female firstlings of his flock, even from their fat ones; and Jehovah looketh unto Abel and unto his present,
field: 1004005
1
4
5
and unto Cain and unto his present He hath not looked; and it is very displeasing to Cain, and his countenance is fallen.
field: 1004006
1
4
6
And Jehovah saith unto Cain, `Why hast thou displeasure? and why hath thy countenance fallen?
field: 1004007
1
4
7
Is there not, if thou dost well, acceptance? and if thou dost not well, at the opening a sin-offering is crouching, and unto thee its desire, and thou rulest over it.'
field: 1004008
1
4
8
And Cain saith unto Abel his brother, ``Let us go into the field;'' and it cometh to pass in their being in the field, that Cain riseth up against Abel his brother, and slayeth him.
field: 1004009
1
4
9
And Jehovah saith unto Cain, `Where `is' Abel thy brother?' and he saith, `I have not known; my brother's keeper -- I?'
field: 1004010
1
4
10
And He saith, `What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood is crying unto Me from the ground;
field: 1004011
1
4
11
and now, cursed `art' thou from the ground, which hath opened her mouth to receive the blood of thy brother from thy hand;
field: 1004012
1
4
12
when thou tillest the ground, it doth not add to give its strength to thee -- a wanderer, even a trembling one, thou art in the earth.'
field: 1004013
1
4
13
And Cain saith unto Jehovah, `Greater is my punishment than to be borne;
field: 1004014
1
4
14
lo, Thou hast driven me to-day from off the face of the ground, and from Thy face I am hid; and I have been a wanderer, even a trembling one, in the earth, and it hath been -- every one finding me doth slay me.'
field: 1004015
1
4
15
And Jehovah saith to him, `Therefore -- of any slayer of Cain sevenfold it is required;' and Jehovah setteth to Cain a token that none finding him doth slay him.
field: 1004016
1
4
16
And Cain goeth out from before Jehovah, and dwelleth in the land, moving about east of Eden;
field: 1004017
1
4
17
and Cain knoweth his wife, and she conceiveth, and beareth Enoch; and he is building a city, and he calleth the name of the city, according to the name of his son -- Enoch.
field: 1004018
1
4
18
And born to Enoch is Irad; and Irad hath begotten Mehujael; and Mehujael hath begotten Methusael; and Methusael hath begotten Lamech.
field: 1004019
1

19
And Lamech taketh to himself two wives, the name of the one Adah, and the name of the second Zillah.
field: 1004020
1

20
And Adah beareth Jabal, he hath been father of those inhabiting tents and purchased possessions;

1

21
and the name of his brother `is' Jubal, he hath been father of every one handling harp and organ.
field: 1004022

22
And Zillah she also bare Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every artificer in brass and iron; and a sister of Tubal-Cain `is' Naamah.
field: 1004023
1

23
And Lamech saith to his wives: -- `Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; Wives of Lamech, give ear `to' my saying: For a man I have slain for my wound, Even a young man for my hurt;

For sevenfold is required for Cain, And for Lamech seventy and sevenfold.'
field: 1004025

25
And Adam again knoweth his wife, and she beareth a son, and calleth his name Seth, `for God hath appointed for me another seed instead of Abel:' for Cain had slain him.
field: 1004026

26
And to Seth, to him also a son hath been born, and he calleth his name Enos; then a beginning was made of preaching in the name of Jehovah.

This `is' an account of the births of Adam: In the day of God's preparing man, in the likeness of God He hath made him;

And Jehovah seeth that abundant `is' the wickedness of man in the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart only evil all the day;
field: 1006006
1
6

and Jehovah repenteth that He hath made man in the earth, and He grieveth Himself -- unto His heart.
field: 1006007

And Jehovah saith, `I wipe away man whom I have prepared from off the face of the ground, from man unto beast, unto creeping thing, and unto fowl of the heavens, for I have repented that I have made them.'
field: 1006008

And Noah found grace in the eyes of Jehovah.
field: 1006009

These `are' births of Noah: Noah `is' a righteous man; perfect he hath been among his generations; with God hath Noah walked habitually.
field: 1006010
1
6
10
And Noah begetteth three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
field: 1006011

11
And the earth is corrupt before God, and the earth is filled `with' violence.
field: 1006012
1

12
And God seeth the earth, and lo, it hath been corrupted, for all flesh hath corrupted its way on the earth.
field: 1006013
1

13
And God said to Noah, `An end of all flesh hath come before Me, for the earth hath been full of violence from their presence; and lo, I am destroying them with the earth.

`Make for thyself an ark of gopher-wood; rooms dost thou make with the ark, and thou hast covered it within and without with cypress;
field: 1006015

and this `is' that which thou dost with it: three hundred cubits `is' the length of the ark, fifty cubits its breadth, and thirty cubits its height;

a window dost thou make for the ark, and unto a cubit thou dost restrain it from above; and the opening of the ark thou dost put in its side, -- lower, second, and third `stories' dost thou make it.

`And I, lo, I am bringing in the deluge of waters on the earth to destroy all flesh, in which `is' a living spirit, from under the heavens; all that `is' in the earth doth expire.

`And I have established My covenant with thee, and thou hast come in unto the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy son's wives with thee;

and of all that liveth, of all flesh, two of every `sort' thou dost bring in unto the ark, to keep alive with thee; male and female are they.

`And thou, take to thyself of all food that is eaten; and thou hast gathered unto thyself, and it hath been to thee and to them for food.'

And Noah doth according to all that God hath commanded him; so hath he done.
field: 1007001
1

1
And Jehovah saith to Noah, `Come in, thou and all thy house, unto the ark, for thee I have seen righteous before Me in this generation;
field: 1007002
1
7
2
of all the clean beasts thou dost take to thee seven pairs, a male and its female; and of the beasts which are not clean two, a male and its female;
field: 1007003
1
7
3
also, of fowl of the heavens seven pairs, a male and a female, to keep alive seed on the face of all the earth;
field: 1007004
1

for after other seven days I am sending rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and have wiped away all the substance that I have made from off the face of the ground.'
field: 1007005
1
7
5
And Noah doth according to all that Jehovah hath commanded him:
field: 1007006
1
7
6
and Noah `is' a son of six hundred years, and the deluge of waters hath been upon the earth.
field: 1007007
1

7
And Noah goeth in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, unto the ark, from the presence of the waters of the deluge;
field: 1007008
1
7
8
of the clean beasts and of the beasts that `are' not clean, and of the fowl, and of every thing that is creeping upon the ground,
field: 1007009
1
7
9
two by two they have come in unto Noah, unto the ark, a male and a female, as God hath commanded Noah.
field: 1007010
1
7
10
And it cometh to pass, after the seventh of the days, that waters of the deluge have been on the earth.
field: 1007011
1
7
11
In the six hundredth year of the life of Noah, in the second month, in the seventeenth day of the month, in this day have been broken up all fountains of the great deep, and the net-work of the heavens hath been opened,
field: 1007012
1
7
12
and the shower is on the earth forty days and forty nights.
field: 1007013
1
7
13
In this self-same day went in Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, sons of Noah, and Noah's wife and the three wives of his sons with them, unto the ark;
field: 1007014
1
7
14
they, and every living creature after its kind, and every beast after its kind, and every creeping thing that is creeping on the earth after its kind, and every fowl after its kind, every bird -- every wing.
field: 1007015
1
7
15
And they come in unto Noah, unto the ark, two by two of all the flesh in which `is' a living spirit;
field: 1007016
1
7
16
and they that are coming in, male and female of all flesh, have come in as God hath commanded him, and Jehovah doth close `it' for him.
field: 1007017
1

17
And the deluge is forty days on the earth, and the waters multiply, and lift up the ark, and it is raised up from off the earth;
field: 1007018
1
7
18
and the waters are mighty, and multiply exceedingly upon the earth; and the ark goeth on the face of the waters.
field: 1007019
1
7
19
And the waters have been very very mighty on the earth, and covered are all the high mountains which `are' under the whole heavens;
field: 1007020
1
7
20
fifteen cubits upwards have the waters become mighty, and the mountains are covered;
field: 1007021
1
7
21
and expire doth all flesh that is moving on the earth, among fowl, and among cattle, and among beasts, and among all the teeming things which are teeming on the earth, and all mankind;
field: 1007022
1
7
22
all in whose nostrils `is' breath of a living spirit -- of all that `is' in the dry land -- have died.
field: 1007023
1
7
23
And wiped away is all the substance that is on the face of the ground, from man unto beast, unto creeping thing, and unto fowl of the heavens; yea, they are wiped away from the earth, and only Noah is left, and those who `are' with him in the ark;
field: 1007024
1
7
24
and the waters are mighty on the earth a hundred and fifty days.
field: 1008001
1

1
And God remembereth Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle which `are' with him in the ark, and God causeth a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subside,
field: 1008002
1
8
2
and closed are the fountains of the deep and the net-work of the heavens, and restrained is the shower from the heavens.
field: 1008003
1

3
And turn back do the waters from off the earth, going on and returning; and the waters are lacking at the end of a hundred and fifty days.
field: 1008004
1
8
4
And the ark resteth, in the seventh month, in the seventeenth day of the month, on mountains of Ararat;
field: 1008005
1
8
5
and the waters have been going and becoming lacking till the tenth month; in the tenth `month', on the first of the month, appeared the heads of the mountains.
field: 1008006
1
8
6
And it cometh to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah openeth the window of the ark which he made,
field: 1008007
1
8
7
and he sendeth forth the raven, and it goeth out, going out and turning back till the drying of the waters from off the earth.
field: 1008008
1
8
8
And he sendeth forth the dove from him to see whether the waters have been lightened from off the face of the ground,
field: 1008009
1
8
9
and the dove hath not found rest for the sole of her foot, and she turneth back unto him, unto the ark, for waters `are' on the face of all the earth, and he putteth out his hand, and taketh her, and bringeth her in unto him, unto the ark.
field: 1008010
1
8
10
And he stayeth yet other seven days, and addeth to send forth the dove from the ark;
field: 1008011
1
8
11
and the dove cometh in unto him at even-time, and lo, an olive leaf torn off in her mouth; and Noah knoweth that the waters have been lightened from off the earth.
field: 1008012
1
8
12
And he stayeth yet other seven days, and sendeth forth the dove, and it added not to turn back unto him any more.
field: 1008013
1
8
13
And it cometh to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first `month', in the first of the month, the waters have been dried from off the earth; and Noah turneth aside the covering of the ark, and looketh, and lo, the face of the ground hath been dried.
field: 1008014
1
8
14
And in the second month, in the seven and twentieth day of the month, the earth hath become dry.
field: 1008015
1
8
15
And God speaketh unto Noah, saying, `Go out from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee;
field: 1008016
1
8
16
every living thing that `is' with thee, of all flesh, among fowl, and among cattle, and among every creeping thing which is creeping on the earth, bring out with thee;
field: 1008017
1
8
17
and they have teemed in the earth, and been fruitful, and have multiplied on the earth.'
field: 1008018
1
8
18
And Noah goeth out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him;
field: 1008019
1
8
19
every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl; every creeping thing on the earth, after their families, have gone out from the ark.
field: 1008020
1
8
20
And Noah buildeth an altar to Jehovah, and taketh of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and causeth burnt-offerings to ascend on the altar;
field: 1008021
1
8
21
and Jehovah smelleth the sweet fragrance, and Jehovah saith unto His heart, `I continue not to disesteem any more the ground because of man, though the imagination of the heart of man `is' evil from his youth; and I continue not to smite any more all living, as I have done;
field: 1008022
1

22
during all days of the earth, seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, do not cease.'
field: 1009001
1

1
And God blesseth Noah, and his sons, and saith to them, `Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth;

1
9
2
and your fear and your dread is on every beast of the earth, and on every fowl of the heavens, on all that creepeth on the ground, and on all fishes of the sea -- into your hand they have been given.
field: 1009003
1

3
Every creeping thing that is alive, to you it is for food; as the green herb I have given to you the whole;

only flesh in its life -- its blood -- ye do not eat.

`And only your blood for your lives do I require; from the hand of every living thing I require it, and from the hand of man, from the hand of every man's brother I require the life of man;

whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man is his blood shed: for in the image of God hath He made man.

7
And ye, be fruitful and multiply, teem in the earth, and multiply in it.'
field: 1009008
1

And God speaketh unto Noah, and unto his sons with him, saying,
field: 1009009
1
9
9
`And I, lo, I am establishing My covenant with you, and with your seed after you,

and with every living creature which `is' with you, among fowl, among cattle, and among every beast of the earth with you, from all who are going out of the ark -- to every beast of the earth.
field: 1009011
1

11
And I have established My covenant with you, and all flesh is not any more cut off by waters of a deluge, and there is not any more a deluge to destroy the earth.'
field: 1009012
1

12
And God saith, `This is a token of the covenant which I am giving between Me and you, and every living creature that `is' with you, to generations age-during;

1
9
13
My bow I have given in the cloud, and it hath been for a token of a covenant between Me and the earth;
field: 1009014
1
9
14
and it hath come to pass (in My sending a cloud over the earth) that the bow hath been seen in the cloud,
field: 1009015
1
9
15
and I have remembered My covenant which is between Me and you, and every living creature among all flesh, and the waters become no more a deluge to destroy all flesh;
field: 1009016
1
9
16
and the bow hath been in the cloud, and I have seen it -- to remember the covenant age-during between God and every living creature among all flesh which `is' on the earth.'
field: 1009017
1

17
And God saith unto Noah, `This `is' a token of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that `is' upon the earth.'
field: 1009018
1
9
18
And the sons of Noah who are going out of the ark are Shem, and Ham, and Japheth; and Ham is father of Canaan.
field: 1009019
1
9
19
These three `are' sons of Noah, and from these hath all the earth been overspread.
field: 1009020
1
9
20
And Noah remaineth a man of the ground, and planteth a vineyard,
field: 1009021
1
9
21
and drinketh of the wine, and is drunken, and uncovereth himself in the midst of the tent.
field: 1009022
1
9
22
And Ham, father of Canaan, seeth the nakedness of his father, and declareth to his two brethren without.
field: 1009023
1
9
23
And Shem taketh -- Japheth also -- the garment, and they place on the shoulder of them both, and go backward, and cover the nakedness of their father; and their faces `are' backward, and their father's nakedness they have not seen.
field: 1009024
1
9
24
And Noah awaketh from his wine, and knoweth that which his young son hath done to him,
field: 1009025
1
9
25
and saith: `Cursed `is' Canaan, Servant of servants he is to his brethren.'
field: 1009026
1

26
And he saith: `Blessed of Jehovah my God `is' Shem, And Canaan is servant to him.
field: 1009027
1
9
27
God doth give beauty to Japheth, And he dwelleth in tents of Shem, And Canaan is servant to him.'
field: 1009028

And Noah liveth after the deluge three hundred and fifty years;

29
and all the days of Noah are nine hundred and fifty years, and he dieth.

And these `are' births of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and born to them are sons after the deluge.

`Sons of Japheth `are' Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.

By these have the isles of the nations been parted in their lands, each by his tongue, by their families, in their nations.

And Cush hath begotten Nimrod;

he hath begun to be a hero in the land; he hath been a hero in hunting before Jehovah; therefore it is said, `As Nimrod the hero `in' hunting before Jehovah.'
field: 1010010

10
And the first part of his kingdom is Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar;
field: 1010011
1
10
11
from that land he hath gone out to Asshur, and buildeth Nineveh, even the broad places of the city, and Calah,

12
and Resen, between Nineveh and Calah; it `is' the great city.

And Mitzraim hath begotten the Ludim, and the Anamim, and the Lehabim, and the Naphtuhim,

14
and the Pathrusim, and the Casluhim, (whence have come out Philistim,) and the Caphtorim.

15
And Canaan hath begotten Sidon his first-born, and Heth,

and the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,

and the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite; and afterwards have the families of the Canaanite been scattered.

And the border of the Canaanite is from Sidon, `in' thy coming towards Gerar, unto Gaza; `in' thy coming towards Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, unto Lasha.

These `are' sons of Ham, by their families, by their tongues, in their lands, in their nations.
field: 1010021
1
10
21
As to Shem, father of all sons of Eber, brother of Japheth the elder, he hath also begotten:
field: 1010022
1
10
22
Sons of Shem `are' Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.
field: 1010023

10
23
And sons of Aram `are' Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.

1
10
24
And Arphaxad hath begotten Salah, and Salah hath begotten Eber.
field: 1010025
1
10
25
And to Eber have two sons been born; the name of the one `is' Peleg (for in his days hath the earth been divided,) and his brother's name `is' Joktan.
field: 1010026
1
10
26
And Joktan hath begotten Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,
field: 1010027

10
27
and Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,

10

and Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,
field: 1010029
1
10
29
and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab; all these `are' sons of Joktan;
field: 1010030
1
10
30
and their dwelling is from Mesha, `in' thy coming towards Sephar, a mount of the east.
field: 1010031
1
10
31
These `are' sons of Shem, by their families, by their tongues, in their lands, by their nations.
field: 1010032
1
10
32
These `are' families of the sons of Noah, by their births, in their nations, and by these have the nations been parted in the earth after the deluge.
field: 1011001
1
11
1
And the whole earth is of one pronunciation, and of the same words,
field: 1011002
1
11
2
and it cometh to pass, in their journeying from the east, that they find a valley in the land of Shinar, and dwell there;
field: 1011003
1
11
3
and they say each one to his neighbour, `Give help, let us make bricks, and burn `them' thoroughly:' and the brick is to them for stone, and the bitumen hath been to them for mortar.
field: 1011004
1
11
4
And they say, `Give help, let us build for ourselves a city and tower, and its head in the heavens, and make for ourselves a name, lest we be scattered over the face of all the earth.'
field: 1011005
1
11
5
And Jehovah cometh down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men have builded;
field: 1011006
1
11
6
and Jehovah saith, `Lo, the people `is' one, and one pronunciation `is' to them all, and this it hath dreamed of doing; and now, nothing is restrained from them of that which they have purposed to do.
field: 1011007
1
11
7
Give help, let us go down, and mingle there their pronunciation, so that a man doth not understand the pronunciation of his companion.'
field: 1011008
1
11
8
And Jehovah doth scatter them from thence over the face of all the earth, and they cease to build the city;
field: 1011009
1
11
9
therefore hath `one' called its name Babel, for there hath Jehovah mingled the pronunciation of all the earth, and from thence hath Jehovah scattered them over the face of all the earth.
field: 1011010
1
11
10
These `are' births of Shem: Shem `is' a son of an hundred years, and begetteth Arphaxad two years after the deluge.
field: 1011011

11
And Shem liveth after his begetting Arphaxad five hundred years, and begetteth sons and daughters.

And Serug liveth thirty years, and begetteth Nahor.

And Serug liveth after his begetting Nahor two hundred years, and begetteth sons and daughters.

And Nahor liveth after his begetting Terah an hundred and nineteen years, and begetteth sons and daughters.
field: 1011026
1
11
26
And Terah liveth seventy years, and begetteth Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
field: 1011027
1
11
27
And these `are' births of Terah: Terah hath begotten Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran hath begotten Lot;
field: 1011028
1
11
28
and Haran dieth in the presence of Terah his father, in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chaldees.
field: 1011029
1
11
29
And Abram and Nahor take to themselves wives; the name of Abram's wife `is' Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife `is' Milcah, daughter of Haran, father of Milcah, and father of Iscah.
field: 1011030
1
11
30
And Sarai is barren -- she hath no child.
field: 1011031
1
11
31
And Terah taketh Abram his son, and Lot, son of Haran, his son's son, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, wife of Abram his son, and they go out with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go towards the land of Canaan; and they come unto Charan, and dwell there.
field: 1011032
1
11
32
And the days of Terah are two hundred and five years, and Terah dieth in Charan.
field: 1012001
1
12
1
And Jehovah saith unto Abram, `Go for thyself, from thy land, and from thy kindred, and from the house of thy father, unto the land which I shew thee.
field: 1012002
1
12
2
And I make thee become a great nation, and bless thee, and make thy name great; and be thou a blessing.
field: 1012003
1
12
3
And I bless those blessing thee, and him who is disesteeming thee I curse, and blessed in thee have been all families of the ground.'
field: 1012004
1
12
4
And Abram goeth on, as Jehovah hath spoken unto him, and Lot goeth with him, and Abram `is' a son of five and seventy years in his going out from Charan.
field: 1012005
1
12
5
And Abram taketh Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they have gained, and the persons that they have obtained in Charan; and they go out to go towards the land of Canaan; and they come in to the land of Canaan.
field: 1012006
1
12
6
And Abram passeth over into the land, unto the place Shechem, unto the oak of Moreh; and the Canaanite `is' then in the land.
field: 1012007
1
12
7
And Jehovah appeareth unto Abram, and saith, `To thy seed I give this land;' and he buildeth there an altar to Jehovah, who hath appeared unto him.
field: 1012008
1
12
8
And he removeth from thence towards a mountain at the east of Beth-El, and stretcheth out the tent (Beth-El at the west, and Hai at the east), and he buildeth there an altar to Jehovah, and preacheth in the name of Jehovah.
field: 1012009
1
12
9
And Abram journeyeth, going on and journeying towards the south.
field: 1012010
1
12
10
And there is a famine in the land, and Abram goeth down towards Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine `is' grievous in the land;
field: 1012011
1
12
11
and it cometh to pass as he hath drawn near to enter Egypt, that he saith unto Sarai his wife, `Lo, I pray thee, I have known that thou `art' a woman of beautiful appearance;
field: 1012012
1
12
12
and it hath come to pass that the Egyptians see thee, and they have said, `This `is' his wife,' and they have slain me, and thee they keep alive:
field: 1012013
1
12
13
say, I pray thee, thou `art' my sister, so that it is well with me because of thee, and my soul hath lived for thy sake.'
field: 1012014
1
12
14
And it cometh to pass, at the entering of Abram into Egypt, that the Egyptians see the woman that she `is' exceeding fair;
field: 1012015
1
12
15
and princes of Pharaoh see her, and praise her unto Pharaoh, and the woman is taken `to' Pharaoh's house;
field: 1012016
1
12
16
and to Abram he hath done good because of her, and he hath sheep and oxen, and he-asses, and men-servants, and handmaids, and she-asses, and camels.
field: 1012017
1
12
17
And Jehovah plagueth Pharaoh and his house -- great plagues -- for the matter of Sarai, Abram's wife.
field: 1012018
1
12
18
And Pharaoh calleth for Abram, and saith, `What `is' this thou hast done to me? why hast thou not declared to me that she `is' thy wife?
field: 1012019
1
12
19
Why hast thou said, She `is' my sister, and I take her to myself for a wife? and now, lo, thy wife, take and go.'
field: 1012020
1
12
20
And Pharaoh chargeth men concerning him, and they send him away, and his wife, an all that he hath.
field: 1013001
1
13
1
And Abram goeth up from Egypt (he and his wife, and all that he hath, and Lot with him) towards the south;
field: 1013002
1
13
2
and Abram `is' exceedingly wealthy in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
field: 1013003
1
13
3
And he goeth on his journeyings from the south, even unto Bethel, unto the place where his tent had been at the commencement, between Bethel and Hai --
field: 1013004
1
13
4
unto the place of the altar which he made there at the first, and there doth Abram preach in the name of Jehovah.
field: 1013005
1
13
5
And also to Lot, who is going with Abram, there hath been sheep and oxen and tents;
field: 1013006
1
13
6
and the land hath not suffered them to dwell together, for their substance hath been much, and they have not been able to dwell together;
field: 1013007
1
13
7
and there is a strife between those feeding Abram's cattle and those feeding Lot's cattle; and the Canaanite and the Perizzite `are' then dwelling in the land.
field: 1013008
1
13
8
And Abram saith unto Lot, `Let there not, I pray thee, be strife between me and thee, and between my shepherds and thy shepherds, for we `are' men -- brethren.
field: 1013009
1
13
9
Is not all the land before thee? be parted, I pray thee, from me; if to the left, then I to the right; and if to the right, then I to the left.'
field: 1013010
1
13
10
And Lot lifteth up his eyes, and seeth the whole circuit of the Jordan that it `is' all a watered country (before Jehovah's destroying Sodom and Gomorrah, as Jehovah's garden, as the land of Egypt,) in thy coming toward Zoar,
field: 1013011
1
13
11
and Lot chooseth for himself the whole circuit of the Jordan; and Lot journeyeth from the east, and they are parted -- a man from his companion;
field: 1013012
1
13
12
Abram hath dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot hath dwelt in the cities of the circuit, and tenteth unto Sodom;
field: 1013013
1
13
13
and the men of Sodom `are' evil, and sinners before Jehovah exceedingly.
field: 1013014
1
13
14
And Jehovah said unto Abram, after Lot's being parted from him, `Lift up, I pray thee, thine eyes, and look from the place where thou `art', northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward;
field: 1013015
1
13
15
for the whole of the land which thou are seeing, to thee I give it, and to thy seed -- to the age.
field: 1013016
1
13
16
And I have set thy seed as dust of the earth, so that, if one is able to number the dust of the earth, even thy seed is numbered;
field: 1013017
1
13
17
rise, go up and down through the land, to its length, and to its breadth, for to thee I give it.'
field: 1013018
1
13
18
And Abram tenteth, and cometh, and dwelleth among the oaks of Mamre, which `are' in Hebron, and buildeth there an altar to Jehovah.
field: 1014001
1
14
1
And it cometh to pass in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goyim,
field: 1014002
1
14
2
they have made war with Bera king of Sodom, and with Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, and Shemeber king of Zeboim, and the king of Bela, which `is' Zoar.
field: 1014003
1
14
3
All these have been joined together unto the valley of Siddim, which `is' the Salt Sea;
field: 1014004
1
14
4
twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and the thirteenth year they rebelled.
field: 1014005
1
14
5
And in the fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer, and the kings who `are' with him, and they smite the Rephaim in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim in Shaveh Kiriathaim,
field: 1014006
1
14
6
and the Horites in their mount Seir, unto El-Paran, which `is' by the wilderness;
field: 1014007
1
14
7
and they turn back and come in unto En-Mishpat, which `is' Kadesh, and smite the whole field of the Amalekite, and also the Amorite who is dwelling in Hazezon-Tamar.
field: 1014008
1
14
8
And the king of Sodom goeth out, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboim, and the king of Bela, which `is' Zoar; and they set the battle in array with them in the valley of Siddim,
field: 1014009
1
14
9
with Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goyim, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings with the five.
field: 1014010
1
14
10
And the valley of Siddim `is' full of bitumen-pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah flee, and fall there, and those left have fled to the mountain.
field: 1014011
1
14
11
And they take the whole substance of Sodom and Gomorrah, and the whole of their food, and go away;
field: 1014012
1
14
12
and they take Lot, Abram's brother's son (seeing he is dwelling in Sodom), and his substance, and go away.
field: 1014013
1
14
13
And one who is escaping cometh and declareth to Abram the Hebrew, and he is dwelling among the oaks of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner, and they `are' Abram's allies.
field: 1014014
1
14
14
And Abram heareth that his brother hath been taken captive, and he draweth out his trained domestics, three hundred and eighteen, and pursueth unto Dan.
field: 1014015
1
14
15
And he divideth himself against them by night, he and his servants, and smiteth them, and pursueth them unto Hobah, which `is' at the left of Damascus;
field: 1014016
1
14
16
and he bringeth back the whole of the substance, and also Lot his brother and his substance hath he brought back, and also the women and the people.
field: 1014017
1
14
17
And the king of Sodom goeth out to meet him (after his turning back from the smiting of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings who `are' with him), unto the valley of Shaveh, which `is' the king's valley.
field: 1014018
1
14
18
And Melchizedek king of Salem hath brought out bread and wine, and he `is' priest of God Most High;
field: 1014019
1
14
19
and he blesseth him, and saith, `Blessed `is' Abram to God Most High, possessing heaven and earth;
field: 1014020
1
14
20
and blessed `is' God Most High, who hath delivered thine adversaries into thy hand;' and he giveth to him a tenth of all.
field: 1014021
1
14
21
And the king of Sodom saith unto Abram, `Give to me the persons, and the substance take to thyself,'
field: 1014022
1
14
22
and Abram saith unto the king of Sodom, `I have lifted up my hand unto Jehovah, God Most High, possessing heaven and earth --
field: 1014023
1
14
23
from a thread even unto a shoe-latchet I take not of anything which thou hast, that thou say not, I -- I have made Abram rich;
field: 1014024
1
14
24
save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who have gone with me -- Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre -- they take their portion.'
field: 1015001
1
15
1
After these things hath the word of Jehovah been unto Abram in a vision, saying, `Fear not, Abram, I `am' a shield to thee, thy reward `is' exceeding great.'
field: 1015002
1
15
2
And Abram saith, `Lord Jehovah, what dost Thou give to me, and I am going childless? and an acquired son in my house is Demmesek Eliezer.'
field: 1015003
1
15
3
And Abram saith, `Lo, to me Thou hast not given seed, and lo, a domestic doth heir me.'
field: 1015004
1
15
4
And lo, the word of Jehovah `is' unto him, saying, `This `one' doth not heir thee; but he who cometh out from thy bowels, he doth heir thee;'
field: 1015005
1
15
5
and He bringeth him out without, and saith, `Look attentively, I pray thee, towards the heavens, and count the stars, if thou art able to count them;' and He saith to him, `Thus is thy seed.'
field: 1015006
1
15
6
And he hath believed in Jehovah, and He reckoneth it to him -- righteousness.
field: 1015007
1
15
7
And He saith unto him, `I `am' Jehovah who brought thee out from Ur of the Chaldees, to give to thee this land to possess it;'
field: 1015008
1
15
8
and he saith, `Lord Jehovah, whereby do I know that I possess it?'
field: 1015009
1
15
9
And He saith unto him, `Take for Me a heifer of three years, and a she-goat of three years, and a ram of three years, and a turtle-dove, and a young bird;'
field: 1015010
1
15
10
and he taketh to him all these, and separateth them in the midst, and putteth each piece over against its fellow, but the bird he hath not divided;
field: 1015011
1
15
11
and the ravenous birds come down upon the carcases, and Abram causeth them to turn back.
field: 1015012
1
15
12
And the sun is about to go in, and deep sleep hath fallen upon Abram, and lo, a terror of great darkness is falling upon him;
field: 1015013
1
15
13
and He saith to Abram, `knowing -- know that thy seed is a sojourner in a land not theirs, and they have served them, and they have afflicted them four hundred years,
field: 1015014
1
15
14
and the nation also whom they serve I judge, and after this they go out with great substance;
field: 1015015
1
15
15
and thou -- thou comest in unto thy fathers in peace; thou art buried in a good old age;
field: 1015016
1
15
16
and the fourth generation doth turn back hither, for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet complete.'
field: 1015017
1
15
17
And it cometh to pass -- the sun hath gone in, and thick darkness hath been -- and lo, a furnace of smoke, and a lamp of fire, which hath passed over between those pieces.
field: 1015018
1
15
18
In that day hath Jehovah made with Abram a covenant, saying, `To thy seed I have given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Phrat,
field: 1015019
1
15
19
with the Kenite, and the Kenizzite, and the Kadmonite,
field: 1015020
1
15
20
and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Rephaim,
field: 1015021
1
15
21
and the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Girgashite, and the Jebusite.'
field: 1016001
1
16
1
And Sarai, Abram's wife, hath not borne to him, and she hath an handmaid, an Egyptian, and her name `is' Hagar;
field: 1016002
1
16
2
and Sarai saith unto Abram, `Lo, I pray thee, Jehovah hath restrained me from bearing, go in, I pray thee, unto my handmaid; perhaps I am built up from her;' and Abram hearkeneth to the voice of Sarai.
field: 1016003
1
16
3
And Sarai, Abram's wife, taketh Hagar the Egyptian, her handmaid, at the end of the tenth year of Abram's dwelling in the land of Canaan, and giveth her to Abram her husband, to him for a wife,
field: 1016004
1
16
4
and he goeth in unto Hagar, and she conceiveth, and she seeth that she hath conceived, and her mistress is lightly esteemed in her eyes.
field: 1016005
1
16
5
And Sarai saith unto Abram, `My violence `is' for thee; I -- I have given mine handmaid into thy bosom, and she seeth that she hath conceived, and I am lightly esteemed in her eyes; Jehovah doth judge between me and thee.'
field: 1016006
1
16
6
And Abram saith unto Sarai, `Lo, thine handmaid `is' in thine hand, do to her that which is good in thine eyes;' and Sarai afflicted her, and she fleeth from her presence.
field: 1016007
1
16
7
And a messenger of Jehovah findeth her by the fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way `to' Shur,
field: 1016008
1
16
8
and he saith, `Hagar, Sarai's handmaid, whence hast thou come, and whither dost thou go?' and she saith, `From the presence of Sarai, my mistress, I am fleeing.'
field: 1016009
1
16
9
And the messenger of Jehovah saith to her, `Turn back unto thy mistress, and humble thyself under her hands;'
field: 1016010
1
16
10
and the messenger of Jehovah saith to her, `Multiplying I multiply thy seed, and it is not numbered from multitude;'
field: 1016011
1
16
11
and the messenger of Jehovah saith to her, `Behold thou `art' conceiving, and bearing a son, and hast called his name Ishmael, for Jehovah hath hearkened unto thine affliction;
field: 1016012
1
16
12
and he is a wild-ass man, his hand against every one, and every one's hand against him -- and before the face of all his brethren he dwelleth.'
field: 1016013
1
16
13
And she calleth the name of Jehovah who is speaking unto her, `Thou `art', O God, my beholder;' for she said, `Even here have I looked behind my beholder?'
field: 1016014
1
16
14
therefore hath one called the well, `The well of the Living One, my beholder;' lo, between Kadesh and Bered.
field: 1016015
1
16
15
And Hagar beareth to Abram a son; and Abram calleth the name of his son, whom Hagar hath borne, Ishmael;
field: 1016016
1
16
16
and Abram `is' a son of eighty and six years in Hagar's bearing Ishmael to Abram.
field: 1017001
1
17
1
And Abram is a son of ninety and nine years, and Jehovah appeareth unto Abram, and saith unto him, `I `am' God Almighty, walk habitually before Me, and be thou perfect;
field: 1017002
1
17
2
and I give My covenant between Me and thee, and multiply thee very exceedingly.'
field: 1017003
1
17
3
And Abram falleth upon his face, and God speaketh with him, saying,
field: 1017004
1
17
4
`I -- lo, My covenant `is' with thee, and thou hast become father of a multitude of nations;
field: 1017005
1
17
5
and thy name is no more called Abram, but thy name hath been Abraham, for father of a multitude of nations have I made thee;
field: 1017006
1
17
6
and I have made thee exceeding fruitful, and made thee become nations, and kings go out from thee.
field: 1017007
1
17
7
`And I have established My covenant between Me and thee, and thy seed after thee, to their generations, for a covenant age-during, to become God to thee, and to thy seed after thee;
field: 1017008
1
17
8
and I have given to thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land of thy sojournings, the whole land of Canaan, for a possession age-during, and I have become their God.'
field: 1017009
1
17
9
And God saith unto Abraham, `And thou dost keep My covenant, thou and thy seed after thee, to their generations;
field: 1017010
1
17
10
this `is' My covenant which ye keep between Me and you, and thy seed after thee: Every male of you `is' to be circumcised;
field: 1017011
1
17
11
and ye have circumcised the flesh of your foreskin, and it hath become a token of a covenant between Me and you.
field: 1017012
1
17
12
`And a son of eight days is circumcised by you; every male to your generations, born in the house, or bought with money from any son of a stranger, who is not of thy seed;
field: 1017013
1
17
13
he is certainly circumcised who `is' born in thine house, or bought with thy money; and My covenant hath become in your flesh a covenant age-during;
field: 1017014
1
17
14
and an uncircumcised one, a male, the flesh of whose foreskin is not circumcised, even that person hath been cut off from his people; My covenant he hath broken.'
field: 1017015
1
17
15
And God saith unto Abraham, `Sarai thy wife -- thou dost not call her name Sarai, for Sarah `is' her name;
field: 1017016
1
17
16
and I have blessed her, and have also given to thee a son from her; and I have blessed her, and she hath become nations -- kings of peoples are from her.'
field: 1017017
1
17
17
And Abraham falleth upon his face, and laugheth, and saith in his heart, `To the son of an hundred years is one born? or doth Sarah -- daughter of ninety years -- bear?'
field: 1017018
1
17
18
And Abraham saith unto God, `O that Ishmael may live before Thee;'
field: 1017019
1
17
19
and God saith, `Sarah thy wife is certainly bearing a son to thee, and thou hast called his name Isaac, and I have established My covenant with him, for a covenant age-during, to his seed after him.
field: 1017020
1
17
20
As to Ishmael, I have heard thee; lo, I have blessed him, and made him fruitful, and multiplied him, very exceedingly; twelve princes doth he beget, and I have made him become a great nation;
field: 1017021
1
17
21
and My covenant I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah doth bear to thee at this appointed time in the next year;'
field: 1017022
1
17
22
and He finisheth speaking with him, and God goeth up from Abraham.
field: 1017023
1
17
23
And Abraham taketh Ishmael his son, and all those born in his house, and all those bought with his money -- every male among the men of Abraham's house -- and circumciseth the flesh of their foreskin, in this self-same day, as God hath spoken with him.
field: 1017024

And Abraham `is' a son of ninety and nine years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;

and Ishmael his son `is' a son of thirteen years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;
field: 1017026
1
17
26
in this self-same day hath Abraham been circumcised, and Ishmael his son;
field: 1017027
1
17
27
and all the men of his house -- born in the house, and bought with money from the son of a stranger -- have been circumcised with him.
field: 1018001

1
And Jehovah appeareth unto him among the oaks of Mamre, and he is sitting at the opening of the tent, about the heat of the day;
field: 1018002
1
18
2
and he lifteth up his eyes and looketh, and lo, three men standing by him, and he seeth, and runneth to meet them from the opening of the tent, and boweth himself towards the earth,
field: 1018003
1
18
3
And he saith, `My Lord, if, I pray thee, I have found grace in thine eyes, do not, I pray thee, pass on from thy servant;
field: 1018004
1
18
4
let, I pray thee, a little water be accepted, and wash your feet, and recline under the tree;
field: 1018005
1
18
5
and I bring a piece of bread, and support ye your heart; afterwards pass on, for therefore have ye passed over unto your servant;' and they say, `So mayest thou do as thou has spoken.'
field: 1018006
1
18
6
And Abraham hasteth towards the tent, unto Sarah, and saith, `Hasten three measures of flour-meal, knead, and make cakes;'
field: 1018007
1
18
7
and Abraham ran unto the herd, and taketh a son of the herd, tender and good, and giveth unto the young man, and he hasteth to prepare it;
field: 1018008
1
18
8
and he taketh butter and milk, and the son of the herd which he hath prepared, and setteth before them; and he is standing by them under the tree, and they do eat.
field: 1018009
1
18
9
And they say unto him, `Where `is' Sarah thy wife?' and he saith, `Lo -- in the tent;'
field: 1018010
1
18
10
and he saith, `returning I return unto thee, about the time of life, and lo, to Sarah thy wife a son.'
field: 1018011
1
18
11
And Sarah is hearkening at the opening of the tent, which is behind him;
field: 1018012
1
18
12
and Abraham and Sarah `are' aged, entering into days -- the way of women hath ceased to be to Sarah;
field: 1018013
1
18
13
and Sarah laugheth in her heart, saying, `After I have waxed old I have had pleasure! -- my lord also `is' old!'
field: 1018014
1
18
14
And Jehovah saith unto Abraham, `Why `is' this? Sarah hath laughed, saying, Is it true really -- I bear -- and I am aged? Is any thing too wonderful for Jehovah? at the appointed time I return unto thee, about the time of life, and Sarah hath a son.'
field: 1018015
1
18
15
And Sarah denieth, saying, `I did not laugh;' for she hath been afraid; and He saith, `Nay, but thou didst laugh.'
field: 1018016
1
18
16
And the men rise from thence, and look on the face of Sodom, and Abraham is going with them to send them away;
field: 1018017
1
18
17
and Jehovah said, `Am I concealing from Abraham that which I am doing,
field: 1018018
1
18
18
and Abraham certainly becometh a nation great and mighty, and blessed in him have been all nations of the earth?
field: 1018019
1
18
19
for I have known him, that he commandeth his children, and his house after him (and they have kept the way of Jehovah), to do righteousness and judgment, that Jehovah may bring on Abraham that which He hath spoken concerning him.'
field: 1018020
1
18
20
And Jehovah saith, `The cry of Sodom and Gomorrah -- because great; and their sin -- because exceeding grievous:
field: 1018021
1
18
21
I go down now, and see whether according to its cry which is coming unto Me they have done completely -- and if not -- I know;'
field: 1018022
1
18
22
and the men turn from thence, and go towards Sodom; and Abraham is yet standing before Jehovah.
field: 1018023
1
18
23
And Abraham draweth nigh and saith, `Dost Thou also consume righteous with wicked?
field: 1018024
1
18
24
peradventure there are fifty righteous in the midst of the city; dost Thou also consume, and not bear with the place for the sake of the fifty -- the righteous who `are' in its midst?
field: 1018025
1
18
25
Far be it from Thee to do according to this thing, to put to death the righteous with the wicked; that it hath been -- as the righteous so the wicked -- far be it from Thee; doth the Judge of all the earth not do justice?'
field: 1018026
1
18
26
And Jehovah saith, `If I find in Sodom fifty righteous in the midst of the city, then have I borne with all the place for their sake.'
field: 1018027
1
18
27
And Abraham answereth and saith, `Lo, I pray thee, I have willed to speak unto the Lord, and I -- dust and ashes;
field: 1018028
1
18
28
peradventure there are lacking five of the fifty righteous -- dost Thou destroy for five the whole of the city?' and He saith, `I destroy `it' not, if I find there forty and five.'
field: 1018029
1
18
29
And he addeth again to speak unto Him and saith, `Peradventure there are found there forty?' and He saith, `I do `it' not, because of the forty.'
field: 1018030
1
18
30
And he saith, `Let it not be, I Pray thee, displeasing to the Lord, and I speak: peradventure there are found there thirty?' and He saith, `I do `it' not, if I find there thirty.'
field: 1018031
1
18
31
And he saith, `Lo, I pray thee, I have willed to speak unto the Lord: peradventure there are found there twenty?' and He saith, `I do not destroy `it', because of the twenty.'
field: 1018032
1
18
32
And he saith, `Let it not be, I pray Thee, displeasing to the Lord, and I speak only this time: peradventure there are found there ten?' and He saith, `I do not destroy `it', because of the ten.'
field: 1018033
1
18
33
And Jehovah goeth on, when He hath finished speaking unto Abraham, and Abraham hath turned back to his place.
field: 1019001

1
And two of the messengers come towards Sodom at even, and Lot is sitting at the gate of Sodom, and Lot seeth, and riseth to meet them, and boweth himself -- face to the earth,
field: 1019002
1
19
2
and he saith, `Lo, I pray you, my lords, turn aside, I pray you, unto the house of your servant, and lodge, and wash your feet -- then ye have risen early and gone on your way;' and they say, `Nay, but in the broad place we do lodge.'
field: 1019003
1
19
3
And he presseth on them greatly, and they turn aside unto him, and come in unto his house; and he maketh for them a banquet, and hath baked unleavened things; and they do eat.
field: 1019004
1
19
4
Before they lie down, the men of the city -- men of Sodom -- have come round about against the house, from young even unto aged, all the people from the extremity;
field: 1019005
1
19
5
and they call unto Lot and say to him, `Where `are' the men who have come in unto thee to-night? bring them out unto us, and we know them.'
field: 1019006
1
19
6
And Lot goeth out unto them, to the opening, and the door hath shut behind him,
field: 1019007
1
19
7
and saith, `Do not, I pray you, my brethren, do evil;
field: 1019008
1
19
8
lo, I pray you, I have two daughters, who have not known any one; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do to them as `is' good in your eyes; only to these men do not anything, for therefore have they come in within the shadow of my roof.'
field: 1019009
1
19
9
And they say, `Come nigh hither;' they say also, `This one hath come in to sojourn, and he certainly judgeth! now, we do evil to thee more than `to' them;' and they press against the man, against Lot greatly, and come nigh to break the door.
field: 1019010
1
19
10
And the men put forth their hand, and bring in Lot unto them, into the house, and have shut the door;
field: 1019011
1
19
11
and the men who `are' at the opening of the house they have smitten with blindness, from small even unto great, and they weary themselves to find the opening.
field: 1019012
1
19
12
And the men say unto Lot, `Whom hast thou here still? son-in-law, thy sons also, and thy daughters, and all whom thou hast in the city, bring out from this place;
field: 1019013
1
19
13
for we are destroying this place, for their cry hath been great `before' the face of Jehovah, and Jehovah doth send us to destroy it.'
field: 1019014
1
19
14
And Lot goeth out, and speaketh unto his sons-in-law, those taking his daughters, and saith, `Rise, go out from this place, for Jehovah is destroying the city;' and he is as `one' mocking in the eyes of his sons-in-law.
field: 1019015
1
19
15
And when the dawn hath ascended, then the messengers press upon Lot, saying, `Rise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters who are found present, lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.'
field: 1019016
1
19
16
And he lingereth, and the men lay hold on his hand, and on the hand of his wife, and on the hand of his two daughters, through the mercy of Jehovah unto him, and they bring him out, and cause him to rest without the city.
field: 1019017
1
19
17
And it cometh to pass when he hath brought them out without, that he saith, `Escape for thy life; look not expectingly behind thee, nor stand thou in all the circuit; to the mountain escape, lest thou be consumed.'
field: 1019018
1
19
18
And Lot saith unto them, `Not `so', I pray thee, my lord;
field: 1019019
1
19
19
lo, I pray thee, thy servant hath found grace in thine eyes, and thou dost make great thy kindness which thou hast done with me by saving my life, and I am unable to escape to the mountain, lest the evil cleave `to' me, and I have died;
field: 1019020
1
19
20
lo, I pray thee, this city `is' near to flee thither, and it `is' little; let me escape, I pray thee, thither, (is it not little?) and my soul doth live.'
field: 1019021
1
19
21
And he saith unto him, `Lo, I have accepted thy face also for this thing, without overthrowing the city `for' which thou hast spoken;
field: 1019022
1
19
22
haste, escape thither, for I am not able to do anything till thine entering thither;' therefore hath he calleth the name of the city Zoar.
field: 1019023
1
19
23
The sun hath gone out on the earth, and Lot hath entered into Zoar,
field: 1019024
1
19
24
and Jehovah hath rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Jehovah, from the heavens;
field: 1019025
1
19
25
and He overthroweth these cities, and all the circuit, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which is shooting up from the ground.
field: 1019026
1
19
26
And his wife looketh expectingly from behind him, and she is -- a pillar of salt!
field: 1019027
1
19
27
And Abraham riseth early in the morning, unto the place where he hath stood `before' the face of Jehovah;
field: 1019028
1
19
28
and he looketh on the face of Sodom and Gomorrah, and on all the face of the land of the circuit, and seeth, and lo, the smoke of the land went up as smoke of the furnace.
field: 1019029
1
19
29
And it cometh to pass, in God's destroying the cities of the circuit, that God remembereth Abraham, and sendeth Lot out of the midst of the overthrow in the overthrowing of the cities in which Lot dwelt.
field: 1019030
1
19
30
And Lot goeth up out of Zoar, and dwelleth in the mountain, and his two daughters with him, for he hath been afraid of dwelling in Zoar, and he dwelleth in a cave, he and his two daughters.
field: 1019031
1
19
31
And the first-born saith unto the younger, `Our father `is' old, and a man there is not in the earth to come in unto us, as `is' the way of all the earth;
field: 1019032
1
19
32
come, we cause our father to drink wine, and lie with him, and preserve from our father -- a seed.'
field: 1019033
1
19
33
And they cause their father to drink wine on that night; and the first-born goeth in, and lieth with her father, and he hath not known in her lying down, or in her rising up.
field: 1019034
1
19
34
And it cometh to pass, on the morrow, that the first-born saith unto the younger, `Lo, I have lain yesterday-night with my father: we cause him to drink wine also to-night, and go thou in, lie with him, and we preserve from our father -- a seed.'
field: 1019035
1
19
35
And they cause their father to drink wine on that night also, and the younger riseth and lieth with him, and he hath not known in her lying down, or in her rising up.
field: 1019036
1
19
36
And the two daughters of Lot conceive from their father,
field: 1019037
1
19
37
and the first-born beareth a son, and calleth his name Moab; he `is' father of Moab unto this day;
field: 1019038
1
19
38
as to the younger, she also hath born a son, and calleth his name Ben-Ammi: he `is' father of the Beni-Ammon unto this day.
field: 1020001
1
20
1
And Abraham journeyeth from thence toward the land of the south, and dwelleth between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourneth in Gerar;
field: 1020002
1
20
2
and Abraham saith concerning Sarah his wife, `She is my sister;' and Abimelech king of Gerar sendeth and taketh Sarah.
field: 1020003
1
20
3
And God cometh in unto Abimelech in a dream of the night, and saith to him, `Lo, thou `art' a dead man, because of the woman whom thou hast taken -- and she married to a husband.'
field: 1020004
1
20
4
And Abimelech hath not drawn near unto her, and he saith, `Lord, also a righteous nation dost thou slay?
field: 1020005
1
20
5
hath not he himself said to me, She `is' my sister! and she, even she herself, said, He `is' my brother; in the integrity of my heart, and in the innocency of my hands, I have done this.'
field: 1020006
1
20
6
And God saith unto him in the dream, `Yea, I -- I have known that in the integrity of thy heart thou hast done this, and I withhold thee, even I, from sinning against Me, therefore I have not suffered thee to come against her;
field: 1020007
1
20
7
and now send back the man's wife, for he `is' inspired, and he doth pray for thee, and live thou; and if thou do not send back, know that dying thou dost die, thou, and all that thou hast.'
field: 1020008
1
20
8
And Abimelech riseth early in the morning, and calleth for all his servants, and speaketh all these words in their ears; and the men fear exceedingly;
field: 1020009
1
20
9
and Abimelech calleth for Abraham, and saith to him, `What hast thou done to us? and what have I sinned against thee, that thou hast brought upon me, and upon my kingdom, a great sin? works which are not done thou hast done with me.'
field: 1020010
1
20
10
Abimelech also saith unto Abraham, `What hast thou seen that thou hast done this thing?'
field: 1020011
1
20
11
And Abraham saith, `Because I said, `Surely the fear of God is not in this place, and they have slain me for the sake of my wife;
field: 1020012
1
20
12
and also, truly she is my sister, daughter of my father, only not daughter of my mother, and she becometh my wife;
field: 1020013
1
20
13
and it cometh to pass, when God hath caused me to wander from my father's house, that I say to her, This `is' thy kindness which thou dost with me: at every place whither we come, say of me, He `is' my brother.'
field: 1020014
1
20
14
And Abimelech taketh sheep and oxen, and servants and handmaids, and giveth to Abraham, and sendeth back to him Sarah his wife;
field: 1020015
1
20
15
and Abimelech saith, `Lo, my land `is' before thee, where it is good in thine eyes, dwell;'
field: 1020016
1
20
16
and to Sarah he hath said, `Lo, I have given a thousand silverlings to thy brother; lo, it is to thee a covering of eyes, to all who are with thee;' and by all this she is reasoned with.
field: 1020017
1
20
17
And Abraham prayeth unto God, and God healeth Abimelech and his wife, and his handmaids, and they bear:
field: 1020018
1
20
18
for Jehovah restraining had restrained every womb of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.
field: 1021001
1
21
1
And Jehovah hath looked after Sarah as He hath said, and Jehovah doth to Sarah as He hath spoken;
field: 1021002
1
21
2
and Sarah conceiveth, and beareth a son to Abraham, to his old age, at the appointed time that God hath spoken of with him;
field: 1021003
1
21
3
and Abraham calleth the name of his son who is born to him, whom Sarah hath born to him -- Isaac;
field: 1021004
1
21
4
and Abraham circumciseth Isaac his son, `being' a son of eight days, as God hath commanded him.
field: 1021005
1
21
5
And Abraham `is' a son of a hundred years in Isaac his son being born to him,
field: 1021006
1
21
6
and Sarah saith, `God hath made laughter for me; every one who is hearing laugheth for me.'
field: 1021007
1
21
7
She saith also, `Who hath said to Abraham, Sarah hath suckled sons, that I have born a son for his old age?'
field: 1021008
1
21
8
And the lad groweth, and is weaned, and Abraham maketh a great banquet in the day of Isaac's being weaned;
field: 1021009
1
21
9
and Sarah seeth the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she hath borne to Abraham, mocking,
field: 1021010
1
21
10
and she saith to Abraham, `Cast out this handmaid and her son; for the son of this handmaid hath no possession with my son -- with Isaac.'
field: 1021011
1
21
11
And the thing is very wrong in the eyes of Abraham, for his son's sake;
field: 1021012
1
21
12
and God saith unto Abraham, `Let it not be wrong in thine eyes because of the youth, and because of thy handmaid: all that Sarah saith unto thee -- hearken to her voice, for in Isaac is a seed called to thee.
field: 1021013
1
21
13
As to the son of the handmaid also, for a nation I set him, because he `is' thy seed.'
field: 1021014
1
21
14
And Abraham riseth early in the morning, and taketh bread, and a bottle of water, and giveth unto Hagar (placing `it' on her shoulder), also the lad, and sendeth her out; and she goeth on, and goeth astray in the wilderness of Beer-Sheba;
field: 1021015
1
21
15
and the water is consumed from the bottle, and she placeth the lad under one of the shrubs.
field: 1021016
1
21
16
And she goeth and sitteth by herself over-against, afar off, about a bow-shot, for she said, `Let me not look on the death of the lad;' and she sitteth over-against, and lifteth up her voice, and weepeth.
field: 1021017
1
21
17
And God heareth the voice of the youth; and the messenger of God calleth unto Hagar from the heavens, and saith to her, `What to thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath hearkened unto the voice of the youth where he `is';
field: 1021018
1
21
18
rise, lift up the youth, and lay hold on him with thy hand, for for a great nation I set him.'
field: 1021019
1
21
19
And God openeth her eyes, and she seeth a well of water, and she goeth and filleth the bottle `with' water, and causeth the youth to drink;
field: 1021020
1
21
20
and God is with the youth, and he groweth, and dwelleth in the wilderness, and is an archer;
field: 1021021
1
21
21
and he dwelleth in the wilderness of Paran, and his mother taketh for him a wife from the land of Egypt.
field: 1021022
1
21
22
And it cometh to pass at that time that Abimelech speaketh -- Phichol also, head of his host -- unto Abraham, saying, `God `is' with thee in all that thou art doing;
field: 1021023
1
21
23
and now, swear to me by God here: thou dost not lie to me, or to my continuator, or to my successor; according to the kindness which I have done with thee thou dost with me, and with the land in which thou hast sojourned.'
field: 1021024
1
21
24
And Abraham saith, `I -- I do swear.'
field: 1021025
1
21
25
And Abraham reasoned with Abimelech concerning the matter of a well of water which Abimelech's servants have taken violently away,
field: 1021026
1
21
26
and Abimelech saith, `I have not known who hath done this thing, and even thou didst not declare to me, and I also, I have not heard save to-day.'
field: 1021027
1
21
27
And Abraham taketh sheep and oxen, and giveth to Abimelech, and they make, both of them, a covenant;
field: 1021028
1
21
28
and Abraham setteth seven Lambs of the flock by themselves.
field: 1021029
1
21
29
And Abimelech saith unto Abraham, `What `are' they -- these seven lambs which thou hast set by themselves?'
field: 1021030
1
21
30
And he saith, `For -- the seven lambs thou dost accept from my hand, so that it becometh a witness for me that I have digged this well;'
field: 1021031
1
21
31
therefore hath he called that place `Beer-Sheba,' for there have both of them sworn.
field: 1021032
1
21
32
And they make a covenant in Beer-Sheba, and Abimelech riseth -- Phichol also, head of his host -- and they turn back unto the land of the Philistines;
field: 1021033
1
21
33
and `Abraham' planteth a tamarask in Beer-Sheba, and preacheth there in the name of Jehovah, God age-during;
field: 1021034
1
21
34
and Abraham sojourneth in the land of the Philistines many days.
field: 1022001
1
22
1
And it cometh to pass after these things that God hath tried Abraham, and saith unto him, `Abraham;' and he saith, `Here `am' I.'
field: 1022002
1
22
2
And He saith, `Take, I pray thee, thy son, thine only one, whom thou hast loved, even Isaac, and go for thyself unto the land of Moriah, and cause him to ascend there for a burnt-offering on one of the mountains of which I speak unto thee.'
field: 1022003
1
22
3
And Abraham riseth early in the morning, and saddleth his ass, and taketh two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and he cleaveth the wood of the burnt-offering, and riseth and goeth unto the place of which God hath spoken to him.
field: 1022004
1
22
4
On the third day -- Abraham lifteth up his eyes, and seeth the place from afar;
field: 1022005
1
22

and Abraham saith unto his young men, `Remain by yourselves here with the ass, and I and the youth go yonder and worship, and turn back unto you.'

And Abraham taketh the wood of the burnt-offering, and placeth on Isaac his son, and he taketh in his hand the fire, and the knife; and they go on both of them together.
field: 1022007
1
22
7
And Isaac speaketh unto Abraham his father, and saith, `My father,' and he saith, `Here `am' I, my son.' And he saith, `Lo, the fire and the wood, and where the lamb for a burnt-offering?'
field: 1022008
1
22
8
and Abraham saith, `God doth provide for Himself the lamb for a burnt-offering, my son;' and they go on both of them together.
field: 1022009
1
22
9
And they come in unto the place of which God hath spoken to him, and there Abraham buildeth the altar, and arrangeth the wood, and bindeth Isaac his son, and placeth him upon the altar above the wood;
field: 1022010
1
22
10
and Abraham putteth forth his hand, and taketh the knife -- to slaughter his son.
field: 1022011
1
22
11
And the messenger of Jehovah calleth unto him from the heavens, and saith, `Abraham, Abraham;' and he saith, `Here `am' I;'
field: 1022012
1
22
12
and He saith, `Put not forth thine hand unto the youth, nor do anything to him, for now I have known that thou art fearing God, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only one, from Me.'
field: 1022013
1
22
13
And Abraham lifteth up his eyes, and looketh, and lo, a ram behind, seized in a thicket by its horns; and Abraham goeth, and taketh the ram, and causeth it to ascend for a burnt-offering instead of his son;
field: 1022014
1
22
14
and Abraham calleth the name of that place `Jehovah-Jireh,' because it is said this day in the mount, `Jehovah doth provide.'
field: 1022015
1
22
15
And the messenger of Jehovah calleth unto Abraham a second time from the heavens,
field: 1022016
1
22
16
and saith, `By Myself I have sworn -- the affirmation of Jehovah -- that because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only one --
field: 1022017
1
22
17
that blessing I bless thee, and multiplying I multiply thy seed as stars of the heavens, and as sand which `is' on the sea-shore; and thy seed doth possess the gate of his enemies;
field: 1022018
1
22
18
and blessed themselves in thy seed have all nations of the earth, because that thou hast hearkened to My voice.'
field: 1022019
1
22
19
And Abraham turneth back unto his young men, and they rise and go together unto Beer-Sheba; and Abraham dwelleth in Beer-Sheba.
field: 1022020
1
22
20
And it cometh to pass after these things that it is declared to Abraham, saying, `Lo, Milcah hath borne, even she, sons to Nahor thy brother:
field: 1022021
1
22
21
Huz his first-born, and Buz his brother; and Kemuel father of Aram,
field: 1022022
1

22
and Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel;

23
and Bethuel hath begotten Rebekah;' these eight hath Milcah borne to Nahor, Abraham's brother;
field: 1022024
1
22
24
and his concubine, whose name `is' Reumah, she also hath borne Tebah, and Gaham, and Tahash, and Maachah.

And the life of Sarah is a hundred and twenty and seven years -- years of the life of Sarah;
field: 1023002
1
23
2
and Sarah dieth in Kirjath-Arba, which `is' Hebron, in the land of Caanan, and Abraham goeth in to mourn for Sarah, and to bewail her.
field: 1023003
1
23
3
And Abraham riseth up from the presence of his dead, and speaketh unto the sons of Heth, saying,
field: 1023004
1
23
4
`A sojourner and a settler I `am' with you; give to me a possession of a burying-place with you, and I bury my dead from before me.'
field: 1023005
1
23
5
And the sons of Heth answer Abraham, saying to him,
field: 1023006
1
23
6
`Hear us, my lord; a prince of God `art' thou in our midst; in the choice of our burying-places bury thy dead: none of us his burying-place doth withhold from thee, from burying thy dead.'
field: 1023007
1
23
7
And Abraham riseth and boweth himself to the people of the land, to the sons of Heth,
field: 1023008
1
23
8
and he speaketh with them, saying, `If it is your desire to bury my dead from before me, hear me, and meet for me with Ephron, son of Zoar;
field: 1023009
1
23
9
and he giveth to me the cave of Machpelah, which he hath, which `is' in the extremity of his field; for full money doth he give it to me, in your midst, for a possession of a burying-place.'
field: 1023010
1
23
10
And Ephron is sitting in the midst of the sons of Heth, and Ephron the Hittite answereth Abraham in the ears of the sons of Heth, of all those entering the gate of his city, saying,
field: 1023011
1
23
11
`Nay, my lord, hear me: the field I have given to thee, and the cave that `is' in it, to thee I have given it; before the eyes of the sons of my people I have given it to thee -- bury thy dead.'
field: 1023012
1
23
12
And Abraham boweth himself before the people of the land,
field: 1023013
1
23
13
and speaketh unto Ephron in the ears of the people of the land, saying, `Only -- if thou wouldst hear me -- I have given the money of the field -- accept from me, and I bury my dead there.'
field: 1023014
1
23
14
And Ephron answereth Abraham, saying to him,
field: 1023015
1
23
15
`My lord, hear me: the land -- four hundred shekels of silver; between me and thee, what `is' it? -- thy dead bury.'
field: 1023016
1
23
16
And Abraham hearkeneth unto Ephron, and Abraham weigheth to Ephron the silver which he hath spoken of in the ears of the sons of Heth, four hundred silver shekels, passing with the merchant.
field: 1023017
1
23
17
And established are the field of Ephron, which `is' in Machpelah, which `is' before Mamre, the field and the cave which `is' in it, and all the trees which `are' in the field, which `are' in all its border round about,
field: 1023018
1
23
18
to Abraham by purchase, before the eyes of the sons of Heth, among all entering the gate of his city.
field: 1023019
1
23
19
And after this hath Abraham buried Sarah his wife at the cave of the field of Machpelah before Mamre (which `is' Hebron), in the land of Canaan;
field: 1023020
1
23
20
and established are the field, and the cave which `is' in it, to Abraham for a possession of a burying-place, from the sons of Heth.
field: 1024001
1
24
1
And Abraham `is' old, he hath entered into days, and Jehovah hath blessed Abraham in all `things';
field: 1024002
1
24
2
and Abraham saith unto his servant, the eldest of his house, who is ruling over all that he hath, `Put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh,
field: 1024003
1
24
3
and I cause thee to swear by Jehovah, God of the heavens, and God of the earth, that thou dost not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanite, in the midst of whom I am dwelling;
field: 1024004
1
24
4
but unto my land and unto my kindred dost thou go, and hast taken a wife for my son, for Isaac.'
field: 1024005
1
24
5
And the servant saith unto him, `It may be the woman is not willing to come after me unto this land; do I at all cause thy son to turn back unto the land from whence thou camest out?'
field: 1024006
1
24
6
And Abraham saith unto him, `Take heed to thyself, lest thou cause my son to turn back thither;
field: 1024007
1
24
7
Jehovah, God of the heavens, who hath taken me from the house of my father, and from the land of my birth, and who hath spoken to me, and who hath sworn to me, saying, To thy seed I give this land, He doth send His messenger before thee, and thou hast taken a wife for my son from thence;
field: 1024008
1
24
8
and if the woman be not willing to come after thee, then thou hast been acquitted from this mine oath: only my son thou dost not cause to turn back thither.'
field: 1024009
1
24
9
And the servant putteth his hand under the thigh of Abraham his lord, and sweareth to him concerning this matter.
field: 1024010
1
24
10
And the servant taketh ten camels of the camels of his lord and goeth, also of all the goods of his lord in his hand, and he riseth, and goeth unto Aram-Naharaim, unto the city of Nahor;
field: 1024011
1
24
11
and he causeth the camels to kneel at the outside of the city, at the well of water, at even-time, at the time of the coming out of the women who draw water.
field: 1024012
1
24
12
And he saith, `Jehovah, God of my lord Abraham, cause to meet, I pray Thee, before me this day -- (and do kindness with my lord Abraham;
field: 1024013
1
24
13
lo, I am standing by the fountain of water, and daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water;
field: 1024014
1
24
14
and it hath been, the young person unto whom I say, Incline, I pray thee, thy pitcher, and I drink, and she hath said, Drink, and I water also thy camels) -- her Thou hast decided for Thy servant, for Isaac; and by it I know that Thou hast done kindness with my lord.'
field: 1024015
1
24
15
And it cometh to pass, before he hath finished speaking, that lo, Rebekah (who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, wife of Nahor, brother of Abraham) is coming out, and her pitcher on her shoulder,
field: 1024016
1
24
16
and the young person `is' of very good appearance, a virgin, and a man hath not known her; and she goeth down to the fountain, and filleth her pitcher, and cometh up.
field: 1024017
1
24
17
And the servant runneth to meet her, and saith, `Let me swallow, I pray thee, a little water from thy pitcher;'
field: 1024018
1
24
18
and she saith, `Drink, my lord;' and she hasteth, and letteth down her pitcher upon her hand, and giveth him drink.
field: 1024019
1
24
19
And she finisheth giving him drink, and saith, `Also for thy camels I draw till they have finished drinking;'
field: 1024020
1
24
20
and she hasteth, and emptieth her pitcher into the drinking-trough, and runneth again unto the well to draw, and draweth for all his camels.
field: 1024021
1
24
21
And the man, wondering at her, remaineth silent, to know whether Jehovah hath made his way prosperous or not.
field: 1024022
1
24
22
And it cometh to pass when the camels have finished drinking, that the man taketh a golden ring (whose weight `is' a bekah), and two bracelets for her hands (whose weight `is' ten `bekahs' of gold),
field: 1024023
1
24
23
and saith, `Whose daughter `art' thou? declare to me, I pray thee, is the house of thy father a place for us to lodge in?'
field: 1024024
1
24
24
And she saith unto him, `I `am' daughter of Bethuel, son of Milcah, whom she hath borne to Nahor.'
field: 1024025
1
24
25
She saith also unto him, `Both straw and provender `are' abundant with us, also a place to lodge in.'
field: 1024026
1
24
26
And the man boweth, and doth obeisance to Jehovah,
field: 1024027
1
24
27
and saith, `Blessed `is' Jehovah, God of my lord Abraham, who hath not left off His kindness and His truth with my lord; -- I `being' in the way, Jehovah hath led me to the house of my lord's brethren.'
field: 1024028
1
24
28
And the young person runneth, and declareth to the house of her mother according to these words.
field: 1024029
1
24
29
And Rebekah hath a brother, and his name `is' Laban, and Laban runneth unto the man who `is' without, unto the fountain;
field: 1024030
1
24
30
yea, it cometh to pass, when he seeth the ring, and the bracelets on the hands of his sister, and when he heareth the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, `Thus hath the man spoken unto me,' that he cometh in unto the man, and lo, he is standing by the camels by the fountain.
field: 1024031
1
24
31
And he saith, `Come in, O blessed one of Jehovah, why standest thou without, and I -- I have prepared the house and place for the camels!'
field: 1024032
1
24
32
And he bringeth in the man into the house, and looseth the camels, and giveth straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet, and the feet of the men who `are' with him:
field: 1024033
1
24
33
and setteth before him to eat; but he saith, `I do not eat till I have spoken my word;' and he saith, `Speak.'
field: 1024034
1
24
34
And he saith, `I `am' Abraham's servant;
field: 1024035
1
24
35
and Jehovah hath blessed my lord exceedingly, and he is great; and He giveth to him flock, and herd, and silver, and gold, and men-servants, and maid-servants, and camels, and asses;
field: 1024036
1
24
36
and Sarah, my lord's wife, beareth a son to my lord, after she hath been aged, and he giveth to him all that he hath.
field: 1024037
1
24
37
`And my lord causeth me to swear, saying, Thou dost not take a wife to my son from the daughters of the Canaanite, in whose land I am dwelling.
field: 1024038
1
24
38
If not -- unto the house of my father thou dost go, and unto my family, and thou hast taken a wife for my son.

24
39
`And I say unto my lord, It may be the woman doth not come after me;

and he saith unto me, Jehovah, before whom I have walked habitually, doth send His messenger with thee, and hath prospered thy way, and thou hast taken a wife for my son from my family, and from the house of my father;
field: 1024041
1
24
41
then art thou acquitted from my oath, when thou comest unto my family, and if they give not `one' to thee; then thou hast been acquitted from my oath.
field: 1024042

`And I come to-day unto the fountain, and I say, Jehovah, God of my lord Abraham, if Thou art, I pray Thee, making prosperous my way in which I am going --

1
24
43
(lo, I am standing by the fountain of water), then the virgin who is coming out to draw, and I have said unto her, Let me drink, I pray thee, a little water from thy pitcher,
field: 1024044
1
24
44
and she hath said unto me, Both drink thou, and also for thy camels I draw -- she is the woman whom Jehovah hath decided for my lord's son.
field: 1024045
1
24
45
`Before I finish speaking unto my heart, then lo, Rebekah is coming out, and her pitcher on her shoulder, and she goeth down to the fountain, and draweth; and I say unto her, Let me drink, I pray thee,
field: 1024046

24
46
and she hasteth and letteth down her pitcher from off her and saith, Drink, and thy camels also I water; and I drink, and the camels also she hath watered.
field: 1024047
1
24
47
`And I ask her, and say, Whose daughter `art' thou? and she saith, Daughter of Bethuel, son of Nahor, whom Milcah hath borne to him, and I put the ring on her nose, and the bracelets on her hands,
field: 1024048
1
24
48
and I bow, and do obeisance before Jehovah, and I bless Jehovah, God of my lord Abraham, who hath led me in the true way to receive the daughter of my lord's brother for his son.
field: 1024049
1
24
49
`And now, if ye are dealing kindly and truly with my lord, declare to me; and if not, declare to me; and I turn unto the right or unto the left.'
field: 1024050
1
24
50
And Laban answereth -- Bethuel also -- and they say, `The thing hath gone out from Jehovah; we are not able to speak unto thee bad or good;
field: 1024051
1
24
51
lo, Rebekah `is' before thee, take and go, and she is a wife to thy lord's son, as Jehovah hath spoken.'
field: 1024052
1
24
52
And it cometh to pass, when the servant of Abraham hath heard their words, that he boweth himself towards the earth before Jehovah;
field: 1024053
1
24
53
and the servant taketh out vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and giveth to Rebekah; precious things also he hath given to her brother and to her mother.
field: 1024054
1
24
54
And they eat and drink, he and the men who `are' with him, and lodge all night; and they rise in the morning, and he saith, `Send me to my lord;'
field: 1024055
1
24
55
and her brother saith -- her mother also -- `Let the young person abide with us a week or ten days, afterwards doth she go.'
field: 1024056
1
24
56
And he saith unto them, `Do not delay me, seeing Jehovah hath prospered my way; send me away, and I go to my lord;'
field: 1024057
1
24
57
and they say, `Let us call for the young person, and ask at her mouth;'
field: 1024058
1
24
58
and they call for Rebekah, and say unto her, `Dost thou go with this man?' and she saith, `I go.'
field: 1024059
1
24
59
And they send away Rebekah their sister, and her nurse, and Abraham's servant, and his men;
field: 1024060
1
24
60
and they bless Rebekah, and say to her, `Thou `art' our sister; become thou thousands of myriads, and thy seed doth possess the gate of those hating it.'
field: 1024061
1
24
61
And Rebekah and her young women arise, and ride on the camels, and go after the man; and the servant taketh Rebekah and goeth.
field: 1024062
1
24
62
And Isaac hath come in from the entrance of the Well of the Living One, my Beholder; and he is dwelling in the land of the south,
field: 1024063
1
24
63
and Isaac goeth out to meditate in the field, at the turning of the evening, and he lifteth up his eyes, and looketh, and lo, camels are coming.
field: 1024064
1
24
64
And Rebekah lifteth up her eyes, and seeth Isaac, and alighteth from off the camel;
field: 1024065
1
24
65
and she saith unto the servant, `Who `is' this man who is walking in the field to meet us?' and the servant saith, `It `is' my lord;' and she taketh the veil, and covereth herself.
field: 1024066
1
24
66
And the servant recounteth to Isaac all the things that he hath done,
field: 1024067
1
24
67
and Isaac bringeth her in unto the tent of Sarah his mother, and he taketh Rebekah, and she becometh his wife, and he loveth her, and Isaac is comforted after `the death of' his mother.

And Abraham addeth and taketh a wife, and her name `is' Keturah;

2
and she beareth to him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
field: 1025003
1

And Jokshan hath begotten Sheba and Dedan; and the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim;

and the sons of Midian `are' Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abidah, and Eldaah: all these `are' sons of Keturah.
field: 1025005
1
25
5
And Abraham giveth all that he hath to Isaac;

1
25
6
and to the sons of the concubines whom Abraham hath, Abraham hath given gifts, and sendeth them away from Isaac his son (in his being yet alive) eastward, unto the east country.
field: 1025007
1
25
7
And these `are' the days of the years of the life of Abraham, which he lived, a hundred and seventy and five years;
field: 1025008
1
25
8
and Abraham expireth, and dieth in a good old age, aged and satisfied, and is gathered unto his people.
field: 1025009
1
25
9
And Isaac and Ishmael his sons bury him at the cave of Machpelah, at the field of Ephron, son of Zoar the Hittite, which `is' before Mamre --

10
the field which Abraham bought from the sons of Heth -- there hath Abraham been buried, and Sarah his wife.

And it cometh to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blesseth Isaac his son; and Isaac dwelleth by the Well of the Living One, my Beholder.

12
And these `are' births of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, hath borne to Abraham;

13
and these `are' the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their births: first-born of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,

these are sons of Ishmael, and these their names, by their villages, and by their towers; twelve princes according to their peoples.
field: 1025017

And these `are' the years of the life of Ishmael, a hundred and thirty and seven years; and he expireth, and dieth, and is gathered unto his people;

and they tabernacle from Havilah unto Shur, which `is' before Egypt, in `thy' going towards Asshur; in the presence of all his brethren hath he fallen.

And these `are' births of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham hath begotten Isaac;

and Isaac is a son of forty years in his taking Rebekah, daughter of Bethuel the Aramaean, from Padan-Aram, sister of Laban the Aramaean, to him for a wife.
field: 1025021

25
21
And Isaac maketh entreaty to Jehovah before his wife, for she `is' barren: and Jehovah is entreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceiveth,

1
25
22
and the children struggle together within her, and she saith, `If `it is' right -- why `am' I thus?' and she goeth to seek Jehovah.
field: 1025023
1
25
23
And Jehovah saith to her, `Two nations `are' in thy womb, and two peoples from thy bowels are parted; and the `one' people than the `other' people is stronger; and the elder doth serve the younger.'
field: 1025024
1

And her days to bear are fulfilled, and lo, twins `are' in her womb;

and afterwards hath his brother come out, and his hand is taking hold on Esau's heel, and one calleth his name Jacob; and Isaac `is' a son of sixty years in her bearing them.
field: 1025027
1
25
27
And the youths grew, and Esau is a man acquainted `with' hunting, a man of the field; and Jacob `is' a plain man, inhabiting tents;
field: 1025028
1
25
28
and Isaac loveth Esau, for `his' hunting `is' in his mouth; and Rebekah is loving Jacob.
field: 1025029
1
25
29
And Jacob boileth pottage, and Esau cometh in from the field, and he `is' weary;
field: 1025030
1
25
30
and Esau saith unto Jacob, `Let me eat, I pray thee, some of this red red thing, for I `am' weary;' therefore hath `one' called his name Edom `Red';
field: 1025031
1
25
31
and Jacob saith, `Sell to-day thy birthright to me.'
field: 1025032
1
25
32
And Esau saith, `Lo, I am going to die, and what is this to me -- birthright?'
field: 1025033
1
25
33
and Jacob saith, `Swear to me to-day:' and he sweareth to him, and selleth his birthright to Jacob;
field: 1025034
1
25
34
and Jacob hath given to Esau bread and pottage of lentiles, and he eateth, and drinketh, and riseth, and goeth; and Esau despiseth the birthright.
field: 1026001
1
26
1
And there is a famine in the land, besides the first famine which was in the days of Abraham, and Isaac goeth unto Abimelech king of the Philistines, to Gerar.
field: 1026002
1
26
2
And Jehovah appeareth unto him, and saith, `Go not down towards Egypt, tabernacle in the land concerning which I speak unto thee,
field: 1026003
1
26
3
sojourn in this land, and I am with thee, and bless thee, for to thee and to thy seed I give all these lands, and I have established the oath which I have sworn to Abraham thy father;
field: 1026004
1
26
4
and I have multiplied thy seed as stars of the heavens, and I have given to thy seed all these lands; and blessed themselves in thy seed have all nations of the earth;
field: 1026005
1
26
5
because that Abraham hath hearkened to My voice, and keepeth My charge, My commands, My statutes, and My laws.'
field: 1026006
1
26
6
And Isaac dwelleth in Gerar;
field: 1026007
1
26
7
and men of the place ask him of his wife, and he saith, `She `is' my sister:' for he hath been afraid to say, `My wife -- lest the men of the place kill me for Rebekah, for she `is' of good appearance.'
field: 1026008
1
26
8
And it cometh to pass, when the days have been prolonged to him there, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looketh through the window, and seeth, and lo, Isaac is playing with Rebekah his wife.
field: 1026009
1
26
9
And Abimelech calleth for Isaac, and saith, `Lo, she `is' surely thy wife; and how hast thou said, She `is' my sister?' and Isaac saith unto him, `Because I said, Lest I die for her.'
field: 1026010
1
26
10
And Abimelech saith, `What `is' this thou hast done to us? as a little thing one of the people had lain with thy wife, and thou hadst brought upon us guilt;'
field: 1026011
1
26
11
and Abimelech commandeth all the people, saying, `He who cometh against this man or against his wife, dying doth die.'
field: 1026012
1
26
12
And Isaac soweth in that land, and findeth in that year a hundredfold, and Jehovah blesseth him;
field: 1026013
1
26
13
and the man is great, and goeth on, going on and becoming great, till that he hath been very great,
field: 1026014
1
26
14
and he hath possession of a flock, and possession of a herd, and an abundant service; and the Philistines envy him,
field: 1026015
1
26
15
and all the wells which his father's servants digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines have stopped them, and fill them with dust.
field: 1026016
1
26
16
And Abimelech saith unto Isaac, `Go from us; for thou hast become much mightier than we;'
field: 1026017
1
26
17
and Isaac goeth from thence, and encampeth in the valley of Gerar, and dwelleth there;
field: 1026018
1
26
18
and Isaac turneth back, and diggeth the wells of water which they digged in the days of Abraham his father, which the Philistines do stop after the death of Abraham, and he calleth to them names according to the names which his father called them.
field: 1026019
1
26
19
And Isaac's servants dig in the valley, and find there a well of living water,
field: 1026020
1
26
20
and shepherds of Gerar strive with shepherds of Isaac, saying, `The water `is' ours;' and he calleth the name of the well `Strife,' because they have striven habitually with him;
field: 1026021
1
26
21
and they dig another well, and they strive also for it, and he calleth its name `Hatred.'
field: 1026022
1
26
22
And he removeth from thence, and diggeth another well, and they have not striven for it, and he calleth its name Enlargements, and saith, `For -- now hath Jehovah given enlargement to us, and we have been fruitful in the land.'
field: 1026023
1
26
23
And he goeth up from thence `to' Beer-Sheba,
field: 1026024
1
26
24
and Jehovah appeareth unto him during that night, and saith, `I `am' the God of Abraham thy father, fear not, for I `am' with thee, and have blessed thee, and have multiplied thy seed, because of Abraham My servant;'
field: 1026025
1
26
25
and he buildeth there an altar, and preacheth in the name of Jehovah, and stretcheth out there his tent, and there Isaac's servants dig a well.
field: 1026026
1
26
26
And Abimelech hath gone unto him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath his friend, and Phichol head of his host;
field: 1026027
1
26
27
and Isaac saith unto them, `Wherefore have ye come unto me, and ye have hated me, and ye send me away from you?'
field: 1026028
1
26
28
And they say, `We have certainly seen that Jehovah hath been with thee, and we say, `Let there be, we pray thee, an oath between us, between us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee;
field: 1026029
1
26
29
do not evil with us, as we have not touched thee, and as we have only done good with thee, and send thee away in peace; thou `art' now blessed of Jehovah.'
field: 1026030
1
26
30
And he maketh for them a banquet, and they eat and drink,
field: 1026031
1
26
31
and rise early in the morning, and swear one to another, and Isaac sendeth them away, and they go from him in peace.
field: 1026032
1
26
32
And it cometh to pass during that day that Isaac's servants come and declare to him concerning the circumstances of the well which they have digged, and say to him, `We have found water;'
field: 1026033
1
26
33
and he calleth it Shebah, `oath,' therefore the name of the city `is' Beer-Sheba, `well of the oath,' unto this day.
field: 1026034
1
26
34
And Esau is a son of forty years, and he taketh a wife, Judith, daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath, daughter of Elon the Hittite,
field: 1026035
1
26
35
and they are a bitterness of spirit to Isaac and to Rebekah.
field: 1027001
1
27
1
And it cometh to pass that Isaac `is' aged, and his eyes are too dim for seeing, and he calleth Esau his elder son, and saith unto him, `My son;' and he saith unto him, `Here `am' I.'
field: 1027002
1
27
2
And he saith, `Lo, I pray thee, I have become aged, I have not known the day of my death;
field: 1027003
1
27
3
and now, take up, I pray thee, thy instruments, thy quiver, and thy bow, and go out to the field, and hunt for me provision,
field: 1027004
1
27
4
and make for me tasteful things, `such' as I have loved, and bring in to me, and I do eat, so that my soul doth bless thee before I die.'
field: 1027005
1
27
5
And Rebekah is hearkening while Isaac is speaking unto Esau his son; and Esau goeth to the field to hunt provision -- to bring in;
field: 1027006
1
27
6
and Rebekah hath spoken unto Jacob her son, saying, `Lo, I have heard thy father speaking unto Esau thy brother, saying,
field: 1027007
1
27
7
Bring for me provision, and make for me tasteful things, and I do eat, and bless thee before Jehovah before my death.
field: 1027008
1
27
8
`And now, my son, hearken to my voice, to that which I am commanding thee:
field: 1027009
1
27
9
Go, I pray thee, unto the flock, and take for me from thence two good kids of the goats, and I make them tasteful things for thy father, `such' as he hath loved;
field: 1027010
1
27
10
and thou hast taken in to thy father, and he hath eaten, so that his soul doth bless thee before his death.
field: 1027011
1
27
11
And Jacob saith unto Rebekah his mother, `Lo, Esau my brother `is' a hairy man, and I a smooth man,
field: 1027012
1
27
12
it may be my father doth feel me, and I have been in his eyes as a deceiver, and have brought upon me disesteem, and not a blessing;'
field: 1027013
1
27
13
and his mother saith to him, `On me thy disesteem, my son; only hearken to my voice, and go, take for me.'
field: 1027014
1
27
14
And he goeth, and taketh, and bringeth to his mother, and his mother maketh tasteful things, `such' as his father hath loved;
field: 1027015
1
27
15
and Rebekah taketh the desirable garments of Esau her elder son, which `are' with her in the house, and doth put on Jacob her younger son;
field: 1027016
1
27
16
and the skins of the kids of the goats she hath put on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck,
field: 1027017
1
27
17
and she giveth the tasteful things, and the bread which she hath made, into the hand of Jacob her son.
field: 1027018
1
27
18
And he cometh in unto his father, and saith, `My father;' and he saith, `Here `am' I; who `art' thou, my son?'
field: 1027019
1
27
19
And Jacob saith unto his father, `I `am' Esau thy first-born; I have done as thou hast spoken unto me; rise, I pray thee, sit, and eat of my provision, so that thy soul doth bless me.'
field: 1027020
1
27
20
And Isaac saith unto his son, `What `is' this thou hast hasted to find, my son?' and he saith, `That which Jehovah thy God hath caused to come before me.'
field: 1027021
1
27
21
And Isaac saith unto Jacob, `Come nigh, I pray thee, and I feel thee, my son, whether thou `art' he, my son Esau, or not.'
field: 1027022
1
27
22
And Jacob cometh nigh unto Isaac his father, and he feeleth him, and saith, `The voice `is' the voice of Jacob, and the hands hands of Esau.'
field: 1027023
1
27
23
And he hath not discerned him, for his hands have been hairy, as the hands of Esau his brother, and he blesseth him,
field: 1027024
1
27
24
and saith, `Thou art he -- my son Esau?' and he saith, `I `am'.'
field: 1027025
1
27
25
And he saith, `Bring nigh to me, and I do eat of my son's provision, so that my soul doth bless thee;' and he bringeth nigh to him, and he eateth; and he bringeth to him wine, and he drinketh.
field: 1027026
1
27
26
And Isaac his father saith to him, `Come nigh, I pray thee, and kiss me, my son;'
field: 1027027
1
27
27
and he cometh nigh, and kisseth him, and he smelleth the fragrance of his garments, and blesseth him, and saith, `See, the fragrance of my son `is' as the fragrance of a field which Jehovah hath blessed;
field: 1027028
1
27
28
and God doth give to thee of the dew of heaven, and of the fatness of the earth, and abundance of corn and wine;
field: 1027029
1
27
29
peoples serve thee, and nations bow themselves to thee, be thou mighty over thy brethren, and the sons of thy mother bow themselves to thee; those who curse thee `are' cursed, and those who bless thee `are' blessed.'
field: 1027030
1
27
30
And it cometh to pass, as Isaac hath finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob is only just going out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother hath come in from his hunting;
field: 1027031
1
27
31
and he also maketh tasteful things, and bringeth to his father, and saith to his father, `Let my father arise, and eat of his son's provision, so that thy soul doth bless me.'
field: 1027032
1
27
32
And Isaac his father saith to him, `Who `art' thou?' and he saith, `I `am' thy son, thy first-born, Esau;'
field: 1027033
1
27
33
and Isaac trembleth a very great trembling, and saith, `Who, now, `is' he who hath provided provision, and bringeth in to me, and I eat of all before thou comest in, and I bless him? -- yea, blessed is he.'
field: 1027034
1
27
34
When Esau heareth the words of his father, then he crieth a very great and bitter cry, and saith to his father, `Bless me, me also, O my father;'
field: 1027035
1
27
35
and he saith, `Thy brother hath come with subtilty, and taketh thy blessing.'
field: 1027036
1
27
36
And he saith, `Is it because `one' called his name Jacob that he doth take me by the heel these two times? my birthright he hath taken; and lo, now, he hath taken my blessing;' he saith also, `Hast thou not kept back a blessing for me?'
field: 1027037
1
27
37
And Isaac answereth and saith to Esau, `Lo, a mighty one have I set him over thee, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants, and `with' corn and wine have I sustained him; and for thee now, what shall I do, my son?'
field: 1027038
1
27
38
And Esau saith unto his father, `One blessing hast thou my father? bless me, me also, O my father;' and Esau lifteth up his voice, and weepeth.
field: 1027039
1
27
39
And Isaac his father answereth and saith unto him, `Lo, of the fatness of the earth is thy dwelling, and of the dew of the heavens from above;
field: 1027040
1
27
40
and by thy sword dost thou live, and thy brother dost thou serve; and it hath come to pass when thou rulest, that thou hast broken his yoke from off thy neck.'
field: 1027041
1
27
41
And Esau hateth Jacob, because of the blessing with which his father blessed him, and Esau saith in his heart, `The days of mourning `for' my father draw near, and I slay Jacob my brother.'
field: 1027042
1
27
42
And the words of Esau her elder son are declared to Rebekah, and she sendeth and calleth for Jacob her younger son, and saith unto him, `Lo, Esau thy brother is comforting himself in regard to thee -- to slay thee;
field: 1027043
1
27
43
and now, my son, hearken to my voice, and rise, flee for thyself unto Laban my brother, to Haran,
field: 1027044
1
27
44
and thou hast dwelt with him some days, till thy brother's fury turn back,
field: 1027045
1
27
45
till thy brother's anger turn back from thee, and he hath forgotten that which thou hast done to him, and I have sent and taken thee from thence; why am I bereaved even of you both the same day?'
field: 1027046
1
27
46
And Rebekah saith unto Isaac, `I have been disgusted with my life because of the presence of the daughters of Heth; if Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, like these -- from the daughters of the land -- why do I live?'
field: 1028001
1
28
1
And Isaac calleth unto Jacob, and blesseth him, and commandeth him, and saith to him, `Thou dost not take a wife of the daughters of Caanan;
field: 1028002
1
28
2
rise, go to Padan-Aram, to the house of Bethuel, thy mother's father, and take for thyself from thence a wife, of the daughters of Laban, thy mother's brother;
field: 1028003
1
28
3
and God Almighty doth bless thee, and make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, and thou hast become an assembly of peoples;
field: 1028004
1
28
4
and He doth give to thee the blessing of Abraham, to thee and to thy seed with thee, to cause thee to possess the land of thy sojournings, which God gave to Abraham.'
field: 1028005
1
28
5
And Isaac sendeth away Jacob, and he goeth to Padan-Aram, unto Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramaean, brother of Rebekah, mother of Jacob and Esau.
field: 1028006
1
28
6
And Esau seeth that Isaac hath blessed Jacob, and hath sent him to Padan-Aram to take to himself from thence a wife -- in his blessing him that he layeth a charge upon him, saying, Thou dost not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan --
field: 1028007
1
28
7
that Jacob hearkeneth unto his father and unto his mother, and goeth to Padan-Aram --
field: 1028008
1
28
8
and Esau seeth that the daughters of Canaan are evil in the eyes of Isaac his father,
field: 1028009
1
28
9
and Esau goeth unto Ishmael, and taketh Mahalath, daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, sister of Nebajoth, unto his wives, to himself, for a wife.
field: 1028010
1
28
10
And Jacob goeth out from Beer-Sheba, and goeth toward Haran,
field: 1028011
1
28
11
and he toucheth at a `certain' place, and lodgeth there, for the sun hath gone in, and he taketh of the stones of the place, and maketh `them' his pillows, and lieth down in that place.
field: 1028012
1
28
12
And he dreameth, and lo, a ladder set up on the earth, and its head is touching the heavens; and lo, messengers of God are going up and coming down by it;
field: 1028013
1
28
13
and lo, Jehovah is standing upon it, and He saith, `I `am' Jehovah, God of Abraham thy father, and God of Isaac; the land on which thou art lying, to thee I give it, and to thy seed;
field: 1028014
1
28
14
and thy seed hath been as the dust of the land, and thou hast broken forth westward, and eastward, and northward, and southward, and all families of the ground have been blessed in thee and in thy seed.
field: 1028015
1
28
15
`And lo, I `am' with thee, and have kept thee whithersoever thou goest, and have caused thee to turn back unto this ground; for I leave thee not till that I have surely done that which I have spoken to thee.'
field: 1028016
1
28
16
And Jacob awaketh out of his sleep, and saith, `Surely Jehovah is in this place, and I knew not;'
field: 1028017
1
28
17
and he feareth, and saith, `How fearful `is' this place; this is nothing but a house of God, and this a gate of the heavens.'
field: 1028018
1
28
18
And Jacob riseth early in the morning, and taketh the stone which he hath made his pillows, and maketh it a standing pillar, and poureth oil upon its top,
field: 1028019
1
28
19
and he calleth the name of that place Bethel, `house of God,' and yet, Luz `is' the name of the city at the first.
field: 1028020
1
28
20
And Jacob voweth a vow, saying, `Seeing God is with me, and hath kept me in this way which I am going, and hath given to me bread to eat, and a garment to put on --
field: 1028021
1
28
21
when I have turned back in peace unto the house of my father, and Jehovah hath become my God,
field: 1028022
1
28
22
then this stone which I have made a standing pillar is a house of God, and all that Thou dost give to me -- tithing I tithe to Thee.'
field: 1029001
1
29
1
And Jacob lifteth up his feet, and goeth towards the land of the sons of the east;
field: 1029002
1
29
2
and he looketh, and lo, a well in the field, and lo, there three droves of a flock crouching by it, for from that well they water the droves, and the great stone `is' on the mouth of the well.
field: 1029003
1
29
3
(When thither have all the droves been gathered, and they have rolled the stone from off the mouth of the well, and have watered the flock, then they have turned back the stone on the mouth of the well to its place.)
field: 1029004
1
29
4
And Jacob saith to them, `My brethren, from whence `are' ye?' and they say, `We `are' from Haran.'
field: 1029005
1
29
5
And he saith to them, `Have ye known Laban, son of Nahor?' and they say, `We have known.'
field: 1029006
1
29
6
And he saith to them, `Hath he peace?' and they say, `Peace; and lo, Rachel his daughter is coming with the flock.'
field: 1029007
1
29
7
And he saith, `Lo, the day `is' still great, `it is' not time for the cattle to be gathered; water ye the flock, and go, delight yourselves.'
field: 1029008
1
29
8
And they say, `We are not able, till that all the droves be gathered together, and they have rolled away the stone from the mouth of the well, and we have watered the flock.'
field: 1029009
1
29
9
He is yet speaking with them, and Rachel hath come with the flock which her father hath, for she `is' shepherdess;
field: 1029010
1
29
10
and it cometh to pass when Jacob hath seen Rachel, daughter of Laban his mother's brother, and the flock of Laban his mother's brother, that Jacob cometh nigh and rolleth the stone from off the mouth of the well, and watereth the flock of Laban his mother's brother.
field: 1029011
1
29
11
And Jacob kisseth Rachel, and lifteth up his voice, and weepeth,
field: 1029012
1
29
12
and Jacob declareth to Rachel that he `is' her father's brother, and that he `is' Rebekah's son, and she runneth and declareth to her father.
field: 1029013
1
29
13
And it cometh to pass, when Laban heareth the report of Jacob his sister's son, that he runneth to meet him, and embraceth him, and kisseth him, and bringeth him in unto his house; and he recounteth to Laban all these things,
field: 1029014
1
29
14
and Laban saith to him, `Only my bone and my flesh `art' thou;' and he dwelleth with him a month of days.
field: 1029015
1
29
15
And Laban saith to Jacob, `Is it because thou `art' my brother that thou hast served me for nought? declare to me what `is' thy hire.'
field: 1029016
1
29
16
And Laban hath two daughters, the name of the elder `is' Leah, and the name of the younger Rachel,

1
29
17
and the eyes of Leah `are' tender, and Rachel hath been fair of form and fair of appearance.

And Jacob loveth Rachel, and saith, `I serve thee seven years for Rachel thy younger daughter:'

and Laban saith, `It is better for me to give her to thee than to give her to another man; dwell with me;'
field: 1029020
1
29
20
and Jacob serveth for Rachel seven years; and they are in his eyes as some days, because of his loving her.
field: 1029021
1
29
21
And Jacob saith unto Laban, `Give up my wife, for my days have been fulfilled, and I go in unto her;'
field: 1029022
1
29
22
and Laban gathereth all the men of the place, and maketh a banquet.
field: 1029023
1
29
23
And it cometh to pass in the evening, that he taketh Leah, his daughter, and bringeth her in unto him, and he goeth in unto her;
field: 1029024
1
29
24
and Laban giveth to her Zilpah, his maid-servant, to Leah his daughter, a maid-servant.
field: 1029025
1
29
25
And it cometh to pass in the morning, that lo, it `is' Leah; and he saith unto Laban, `What `is' this thou hast done to me? for Rachel have I not served with thee? and why hast thou deceived me?'
field: 1029026
1
29
26
And Laban saith, `It is not done so in our place, to give the younger before the first-born;
field: 1029027
1
29
27
fulfil the week of this one, and we give to thee also this one, for the service which thou dost serve with me yet seven other years.'
field: 1029028
1
29
28
And Jacob doth so, and fulfilleth the week of this one, and he giveth to him Rachel his daughter, to him for a wife;
field: 1029029
1
29
29
and Laban giveth to Rachel his daughter Bilhah his maid-servant, for a maid-servant to her.
field: 1029030
1
29
30
And he goeth in also unto Rachel, and he also loveth Rachel more than Leah; and he serveth with him yet seven other years.
field: 1029031
1
29
31
And Jehovah seeth that Leah `is' the hated one, and He openeth her womb, and Rachel `is' barren;
field: 1029032
1
29
32
and Leah conceiveth, and beareth a son, and calleth his name Reuben, for she said, `Because Jehovah hath looked on mine affliction; because now doth my husband love me.'
field: 1029033
1
29
33
And she conceiveth again, and beareth a son, and saith, `Because Jehovah hath heard that I `am' the hated one, He also giveth to me even this `one';' and she calleth his name Simeon.
field: 1029034
1
29
34
And she conceiveth again, and beareth a son, and saith, `Now `is' the time, my husband is joined unto me, because I have born to him three sons,' therefore hath `one' called his name Levi.
field: 1029035
1
29
35
And she conceiveth again, and beareth a son, and saith this time, `I praise Jehovah;' therefore hath she called his name Judah; and she ceaseth from bearing.
field: 1030001
1
30
1
And Rachel seeth that she hath not borne to Jacob, and Rachel is envious of her sister, and saith unto Jacob, `Give me sons, and if there is none -- I die.'
field: 1030002
1
30
2
And Jacob's anger burneth against Rachel, and he saith, `Am I in stead of God who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?'
field: 1030003
1
30
3
And she saith, `Lo, my handmaid Bilhah, go in unto her, and she doth bear on my knees, and I am built up, even I, from her;'
field: 1030004
1
30
4
and she giveth to him Bilhah her maid-servant for a wife, and Jacob goeth in unto her;
field: 1030005
1
30
5
and Bilhah conceiveth, and beareth to Jacob a son,
field: 1030006
1
30
6
and Rachel saith, `God hath decided for me, and also hath hearkened to my voice, and giveth to me a son;' therefore hath she called his name Dan.
field: 1030007
1
30
7
And Bilhah, Rachel's maid-servant, conceiveth again, and beareth a second son to Jacob,
field: 1030008
1
30
8
and Rachel saith, `With wrestlings of God I have wrestled with my sister, yea, I have prevailed;' and she calleth his name Napthali.
field: 1030009
1
30
9
And Leah seeth that she hath ceased from bearing, and she taketh Zilpah her maid-servant, and giveth her to Jacob for a wife;
field: 1030010
1
30
10
and Zilpah, Leah's maid-servant, beareth to Jacob a son,
field: 1030011
1
30
11
and Leah saith, `A troop is coming;' and she calleth his name Gad.
field: 1030012
1
30
12
And Zilpah, Leah's maid-servant, beareth a second son to Jacob,
field: 1030013
1
30
13
and Leah saith, `Because of my happiness, for daughters have pronounced me happy;' and she calleth his name Asher.
field: 1030014
1
30
14
And Reuben goeth in the days of wheat-harvest, and findeth love-apples in the field, and bringeth them in unto Leah, his mother, and Rachel saith unto Leah, `Give to me, I pray thee, of the love-apples of thy son.'
field: 1030015
1
30
15
And she saith to her, `Is thy taking my husband a little thing, that thou hast taken also the love-apples of my son?' and Rachel saith, `Therefore doth he lie with thee to-night, for thy son's love-apples.'
field: 1030016
1
30
16
And Jacob cometh in from the field at evening; and Leah goeth to meet him, and saith, `Unto me dost thou come in, for hiring I have hired thee with my son's love-apples;' and he lieth with her during that night.
field: 1030017
1
30
17
And God hearkeneth unto Leah, and she conceiveth, and beareth to Jacob a son, a fifth,
field: 1030018
1
30
18
and Leah saith, `God hath given my hire, because I have given my maid-servant to my husband;' and she calleth his name Issachar.
field: 1030019
1
30
19
And conceive again doth Leah, and she beareth a sixth son to Jacob,
field: 1030020
1
30
20
and Leah saith, `God hath endowed me -- a good dowry; this time doth my husband dwell with me, for I have borne to him six sons;' and she calleth his name Zebulun;
field: 1030021
1
30
21
and afterwards hath she born a daughter, and calleth her name Dinah.
field: 1030022
1
30
22
And God remembereth Rachel, and God hearkeneth unto her, and openeth her womb,
field: 1030023
1
30
23
and she conceiveth and beareth a son, and saith, `God hath gathered up my reproach;'
field: 1030024
1
30
24
and she calleth his name Joseph, saying, `Jehovah is adding to me another son.'
field: 1030025
1
30
25
And it cometh to pass, when Rachel hath borne Joseph, that Jacob saith unto Laban, `Send me away, and I go unto my place, and to my land;
field: 1030026
1
30
26
give up my wives and my children, for whom I have served thee, and I go; for thou -- thou hast known my service which I have served thee.'
field: 1030027
1
30
27
And Laban saith unto him, `If, I pray thee, I have found grace in thine eyes -- I have observed diligently that Jehovah doth bless me for thy sake.'
field: 1030028
1
30
28
He saith also, `Define thy hire to me, and I give.'
field: 1030029
1
30
29
And he saith unto him, `Thou -- thou hast known that which I have served thee `in', and that which thy substance was with me;
field: 1030030
1
30
30
for `it is' little which thou hast had at my appearance, and it breaketh forth into a multitude, and Jehovah blesseth thee at my coming; and now, when do I make, I also, for mine own house?'
field: 1030031
1
30
31
And he saith, `What do I give to thee?' And Jacob saith, `Thou dost not give me anything; if thou do for me this thing, I turn back; I have delight; thy flock I watch;
field: 1030032
1
30
32
I pass through all thy flock to-day to turn aside from thence every sheep speckled and spotted, and every brown sheep among the lambs, and speckled and spotted among the goats -- and it hath been my hire;
field: 1030033
1
30
33
and my righteousness hath answered for me in the day to come, when it cometh in for my hire before thy face; -- every one which is not speckled and spotted among `my' goats, and brown among `my' lambs -- it is stolen with me.'
field: 1030034
1
30
34
And Laban saith, `Lo, O that it were according to thy word;'
field: 1030035
1
30
35
and he turneth aside during that day the ring-straked and the spotted he-goats, and all the speckled and the spotted she-goats, every one that `hath' white in it, and every brown one among the lambs, and he giveth into the hand of his sons,
field: 1030036
1
30
36
and setteth a journey of three days between himself and Jacob; and Jacob is feeding the rest of the flock of Laban.
field: 1030037
1
30
37
And Jacob taketh to himself a rod of fresh poplar, and of the hazel and chesnut, and doth peel in them white peelings, making bare the white that `is' on the rods,
field: 1030038
1
30
38
and setteth up the rods which he hath peeled in the gutters in the watering troughs (when the flock cometh in to drink), over-against the flock, that they may conceive in their coming in to drink;
field: 1030039
1
30
39
and the flocks conceive at the rods, and the flock beareth ring-straked, speckled, and spotted ones.
field: 1030040
1
30
40
And the lambs hath Jacob parted, and he putteth the face of the flock towards the ring-straked, also all the brown in the flock of Laban, and he setteth his own droves by themselves, and hath not set them near Laban's flock.
field: 1030041
1
30
41
And it hath come to pass whenever the strong ones of the flock conceive, that Jacob set the rods before the eyes of the flock in the gutters, to cause them to conceive by the rods,
field: 1030042
1
30
42
and when the flock is feeble, he doth not set `them'; and the feeble ones have been Laban's, and the strong ones Jacob's.
field: 1030043
1
30
43
And the man increaseth very exceedingly, and hath many flocks, and maid-servants, and men-servants, and camels, and asses.
field: 1031001
1
31
1
And he heareth the words of Laban's sons, saying, `Jacob hath taken all that our father hath; yea, from that which our father hath, he hath made all this honour;'
field: 1031002
1
31
2
and Jacob seeth the face of Laban, and lo, it is not with him as heretofore.
field: 1031003
1
31
3
And Jehovah saith unto Jacob, `Turn back unto the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred, and I am with thee.'
field: 1031004
1
31
4
And Jacob sendeth and calleth for Rachel and for Leah to the field unto his flock;
field: 1031005
1
31
5
and saith to them, `I am beholding your father's face -- that it is not towards me as heretofore, and the God of my father hath been with me,
field: 1031006
1
31
6
and ye -- ye have known that with all my power I have served your father,
field: 1031007
1
31
7
and your father hath played upon me, and hath changed my hire ten times; and God hath not suffered him to do evil with me.
field: 1031008
1
31
8
`If he say thus: The speckled are thy hire, then bare all the flock speckled ones; and if he say thus: The ring-straked are thy hire, then bare all the flock ring-straked;
field: 1031009
1
31
9
and God taketh away the substance of your father, and doth give to me.
field: 1031010
1
31
10
`And it cometh to pass at the time of the flock conceiving, that I lift up mine eyes and see in a dream, and lo, the he-goats, which are going up on the flock, `are' ring-straked, speckled, and grisled;
field: 1031011
1
31
11
and the messenger of God saith unto me in the dream, Jacob, and I say, Here `am' I.
field: 1031012
1
31
12
`And He saith, Lift up, I pray thee, thine eyes, and see -- all the he-goats which are going up on the flock `are' ring-straked, speckled, and grisled, for I have seen all that Laban is doing to thee;
field: 1031013
1
31
13
I `am' the God of Bethel where thou hast anointed a standing pillar, where thou hast vowed a vow to me; now, arise, go out from this land, and turn back unto the land of thy birth.'
field: 1031014
1
31
14
And Rachel answereth -- Leah also -- and saith to him, `Have we yet a portion and inheritance in the house of our father?
field: 1031015
1
31
15
have we not been reckoned strangers to him? for he hath sold us, and he also utterly consumeth our money;
field: 1031016
1
31
16
for all the wealth which God hath taken away from our father, it `is' ours, and our children's; and now, all that God hath said unto thee -- do.'
field: 1031017
1
31
17
And Jacob riseth, and lifteth up his sons and his wives on the camels,
field: 1031018
1
31
18
and leadeth all his cattle, and all his substance which he hath acquired, the cattle of his getting, which he hath acquired in Padan-Aram, to go unto Isaac his father, to the land of Canaan.
field: 1031019
1
31
19
And Laban hath gone to shear his flock, and Rachel stealeth the teraphim which her father hath;
field: 1031020
1
31
20
and Jacob deceiveth the heart of Laban the Aramaean, because he hath not declared to him that he is fleeing;
field: 1031021
1
31
21
and he fleeth, he and all that he hath, and riseth, and passeth over the River, and setteth his face `toward' the mount of Gilead.
field: 1031022
1
31
22
And it is told to Laban on the third day that Jacob hath fled,
field: 1031023
1
31
23
and he taketh his brethren with him, and pursueth after him a journey of seven days, and overtaketh him in the mount of Gilead.
field: 1031024
1
31
24
And God cometh in unto Laban the Aramaean in a dream of the night, and saith to him, `Take heed to thyself lest thou speak with Jacob from good unto evil.'
field: 1031025
1
31
25
And Laban overtaketh Jacob; and Jacob hath fixed his tent in the mount; and Laban with his brethren have fixed `theirs' in the mount of Gilead.
field: 1031026
1
31
26
And Laban saith to Jacob, `What hast thou done that thou dost deceive my heart, and lead away my daughters as captives of the sword?
field: 1031027
1
31
27
Why hast thou hidden thyself to flee, and deceivest me, and hast not declared to me, and I send thee away with joy and with songs, with tabret and with harp,
field: 1031028
1
31
28
and hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? -- now thou hast acted foolishly in doing `so';
field: 1031029
1
31
29
my hand is to God to do evil with you, but the God of your father yesternight hath spoken unto me, saying, Take heed to thyself from speaking with Jacob from good unto evil.
field: 1031030
1
31
30
`And now, thou hast certainly gone, because thou hast been very desirous for the house of thy father; why hast thou stolen my gods?'
field: 1031031
1
31
31
And Jacob answereth and saith to Laban, `Because I was afraid, for I said, Lest thou take violently away thy daughters from me;
field: 1031032
1
31
32
with whomsoever thou findest thy gods -- he doth not live; before our brethren discern for thyself what `is' with me, and take to thyself:' and Jacob hath not known that Rachel hath stolen them.
field: 1031033
1
31
33
And Laban goeth into the tent of Jacob, and into the tent of Leah, and into the tent of the two handmaidens, and hath not found; and he goeth out from the tent of Leah, and goeth into the tent of Rachel.
field: 1031034
1
31
34
And Rachel hath taken the teraphim, and putteth them in the furniture of the camel, and sitteth upon them; and Laban feeleth all the tent, and hath not found;
field: 1031035
1
31
35
and she saith unto her father, `Let it not be displeasing in the eyes of my lord that I am not able to rise at thy presence, for the way of women `is' on me;' and he searcheth, and hath not found the teraphim.
field: 1031036
1
31
36
And it is displeasing to Jacob, and he striveth with Laban; and Jacob answereth and saith to Laban, `What `is' my transgression? what my sin, that thou hast burned after me?
field: 1031037
1
31
37
for thou hast felt all my vessels: what hast thou found of all the vessels of thy house? set here before my brethren, and thy brethren, and they decide between us both.
field: 1031038
1
31
38
`These twenty years I `am' with thee: thy ewes and thy she-goats have not miscarried, and the rams of thy flock I have not eaten;
field: 1031039
1
31
39
the torn I have not brought in unto thee -- I, I repay it -- from my hand thou dost seek it; I have been deceived by day, and I have been deceived by night;
field: 1031040
1
31
40
I have been `thus': in the day consumed me hath drought, and frost by night, and wander doth my sleep from mine eyes.
field: 1031041
1
31
41
`This `is' to me twenty years in thy house: I have served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy flock; and thou changest my hire ten times;
field: 1031042
1
31
42
unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the Fear of Isaac, had been for me, surely now empty thou hadst sent me away; mine affliction and the labour of my hands hath God seen, and reproveth yesternight.'
field: 1031043
1
31
43
And Laban answereth and saith unto Jacob, `The daughters `are' my daughters, and the sons my sons, and the flock my flock, and all that thou art seeing `is' mine; and to my daughters -- what do I to these to-day, or to their sons whom they have born?
field: 1031044
1
31
44
and now, come, let us make a covenant, I and thou, and it hath been for a witness between me and thee.'
field: 1031045
1
31
45
And Jacob taketh a stone, and lifteth it up `for' a standing pillar;
field: 1031046
1
31
46
and Jacob saith to his brethren, `Gather stones,' and they take stones, and make a heap; and they eat there on the heap;
field: 1031047
1
31
47
and Laban calleth it Jegar-Sahadutha; and Jacob hath called it Galeed.
field: 1031048
1
31
48
And Laban saith, `This heap `is' witness between me and thee to-day;' therefore hath he called its name Galeed;
field: 1031049
1
31
49
Mizpah also, for he said, `Jehovah doth watch between me and thee, for we are hidden one from another;
field: 1031050
1
31
50
if thou afflict my daughters, or take wives beside my daughters -- there is no man with us -- see, God `is' witness between me and thee.'
field: 1031051
1
31
51
And Laban saith to Jacob, `Lo, this heap, and lo, the standing pillar which I have cast between me and thee;
field: 1031052
1
31
52
this heap `is' witness, and the standing pillar `is' witness, that I do not pass over this heap unto thee, and that thou dost not pass over this heap and this standing pillar unto me -- for evil;
field: 1031053
1
31
53
the God of Abraham and the God of Nahor, doth judge between us -- the God of their father,' and Jacob sweareth by the Fear of his father Isaac.
field: 1031054
1
31
54
And Jacob sacrificeth a sacrifice in the mount, and calleth to his brethren to eat bread, and they eat bread, and lodge in the mount;
field: 1031055
1
31
55
and Laban riseth early in the morning, and kisseth his sons and his daughters, and blesseth them; and Laban goeth on, and turneth back to his place.
field: 1032001
1
32
1
And Jacob hath gone on his way, and messengers of God come upon him;
field: 1032002
1
32
2
and Jacob saith, when he hath seen them, `This `is' the camp of God;' and he calleth the name of that place `Two Camps.'
field: 1032003
1
32
3
And Jacob sendeth messengers before him unto Esau his brother, towards the land of Seir, the field of Edom,
field: 1032004
1
32
4
and commandeth them, saying, `Thus do ye say to my lord, to Esau: Thus said thy servant Jacob, With Laban I have sojourned, and I tarry until now;
field: 1032005
1
32
5
and I have ox, and ass, flock, and man-servant, and maid-servant, and I send to declare to my lord, to find grace in his eyes.'
field: 1032006
1
32
6
And the messengers turn back unto Jacob, saying, `We came in unto thy brother, unto Esau, and he also is coming to meet thee, and four hundred men with him;'
field: 1032007
1
32
7
and Jacob feareth exceedingly, and is distressed, and he divideth the people who `are' with him, and the flock, and the herd, and the camels, into two camps,
field: 1032008
1
32
8
and saith, `If Esau come in unto the one camp, and have smitten it -- then the camp which is left hath been for an escape.'
field: 1032009
1
32
9
And Jacob saith, `God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, Jehovah who saith unto me, Turn back to thy land, and to thy kindred, and I do good with thee:
field: 1032010
1
32
10
I have been unworthy of all the kind acts, and of all the truth which Thou hast done with thy servant -- for, with my staff I passed over this Jordan, and now I have become two camps.
field: 1032011
1
32
11
`Deliver me, I pray Thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I am fearing him, less he come and have smitten me -- mother beside sons;
field: 1032012
1
32
12
and Thou -- Thou hast said, I certainly do good with thee, and have set thy seed as the sand of the sea, which is not numbered because of the multitude.'
field: 1032013
1
32
13
And he lodgeth there during that night, and taketh from that which is coming into his hand, a present for Esau his brother:
field: 1032014
1
32
14
she-goats two hundred, and he-goats twenty, ewes two hundred, and rams twenty,
field: 1032015
1
32
15
suckling camels and their young ones thirty, cows forty, and bullocks ten, she-asses twenty, and foals ten;
field: 1032016
1
32
16
and he giveth into the hand of his servants, every drove by itself, and saith unto his servants, `Pass over before me, and a space ye do put between drove and drove.'
field: 1032017
1
32
17
And he commandeth the first, saying, `When Esau my brother meeteth thee, and hath asked thee, saying, Whose `art' thou? and whither goest thou? and whose `are' these before thee?
field: 1032018
1
32
18
then thou hast said, Thy servant Jacob's: it `is' a present sent to my lord, to Esau; and lo, he also `is' behind us.'
field: 1032019

32
19
And he commandeth also the second, also the third, also all who are going after the droves, saying, `According to this manner do ye speak unto Esau in your finding him,
field: 1032020
1
32
20
and ye have said also, Lo, thy servant Jacob `is' behind us;' for he said, `I pacify his face with the present which is going before me, and afterwards I see his face; it may be he lifteth up my face;'
field: 1032021
1
32
21
and the present passeth over before his face, and he hath lodged during that night in the camp.
field: 1032022
1
32
22
And he riseth in that night, and taketh his two wives, and his two maid-servants, and his eleven children, and passeth over the passage of Jabbok;
field: 1032023
1
32
23
and he taketh them, and causeth them to pass over the brook, and he causeth that which he hath to pass over.
field: 1032024
1
32
24
And Jacob is left alone, and one wrestleth with him till the ascending of the dawn;
field: 1032025
1
32
25
and he seeth that he is not able for him, and he cometh against the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob's thigh is disjointed in his wrestling with him;
field: 1032026
1
32
26
and he saith, `Send me away, for the dawn hath ascended:' and he saith, `I send thee not away, except thou hast blessed me.'
field: 1032027
1
32
27
And he saith unto him, `What `is' thy name?' and he saith, `Jacob.'
field: 1032028
1
32
28
And he saith, `Thy name is no more called Jacob, but Israel; for thou hast been a prince with God and with men, and dost prevail.'
field: 1032029
1
32
29
And Jacob asketh, and saith, `Declare, I pray thee, thy name;' and he saith, `Why `is' this, thou askest for My name?' and He blesseth him there.
field: 1032030
1
32
30
And Jacob calleth the name of the place Peniel: for `I have seen God face unto face, and my life is delivered;'
field: 1032031
1
32
31
and the sun riseth on him when he hath passed over Penuel, and he is halting on his thigh;
field: 1032032
1
32
32
therefore the sons of Israel do not eat the sinew which shrank, which `is' on the hollow of the thigh, unto this day, because He came against the hollow of Jacob's thigh, against the sinew which shrank.
field: 1033001
1
33
1
And Jacob lifteth up his eyes, and looketh, and lo, Esau is coming, and with him four hundred men; and he divideth the children unto Leah, and unto Rachel, and unto the two maid-servants;
field: 1033002
1
33
2
and he setteth the maid-servants and their children first, and Leah and her children behind, and Rachel and Joseph last.
field: 1033003
1
33
3
And he himself passed over before them, and boweth himself to the earth seven times, until his drawing nigh unto his brother,
field: 1033004
1
33
4
and Esau runneth to meet him, and embraceth him, and falleth on his neck, and kisseth him, and they weep;
field: 1033005
1
33
5
and he lifteth up his eyes, and seeth the women and the children, and saith, `What `are' these to thee?' And he saith, `The children with whom God hath favoured thy servant.'
field: 1033006
1
33
6
And the maid-servants draw nigh, they and their children, and bow themselves;
field: 1033007
1
33
7
and Leah also draweth nigh, and her children, and they bow themselves; and afterwards Joseph hath drawn nigh with Rachel, and they bow themselves.
field: 1033008
1
33
8
And he saith, `What to thee `is' all this camp which I have met?' and he saith, `To find grace in the eyes of my lord.'
field: 1033009
1
33
9
And Esau saith, `I have abundance, my brother, let it be to thyself that which thou hast.'
field: 1033010
1
33
10
And Jacob saith, `Nay, I pray thee, if, I pray thee, I have found grace in thine eyes, then thou hast received my present from my hand, because that I have seen thy face, as the seeing of the face of God, and thou art pleased with me;
field: 1033011
1
33
11
receive, I pray thee, my blessing, which is brought to thee, because God hath favoured me, and because I have all `things';' and he presseth on him, and he receiveth,
field: 1033012
1
33
12
and saith, `Let us journey and go on, and I go on before thee.'
field: 1033013
1
33
13
And he saith unto him, `My lord knoweth that the children `are' tender, and the suckling flock and the herd `are' with me; when they have beaten them one day, then hath all the flock died.
field: 1033014
1
33
14
Let my lord, I pray thee, pass over before his servant, and I -- I lead on gently, according to the foot of the work which `is' before me, and to the foot of the children, until that I come unto my lord, to Seir.'
field: 1033015
1
33
15
And Esau saith, `Let me, I pray thee, place with thee some of the people who `are' with me;' and he said, `Why `is' this? I find grace in the eyes of my lord.'
field: 1033016
1
33
16
And turn back on that day doth Esau on his way to Seir;
field: 1033017
1
33
17
and Jacob hath journeyed to Succoth, and buildeth to himself a house, and for his cattle hath made booths, therefore hath he called the name of the place Succoth.
field: 1033018
1
33
18
And Jacob cometh in to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which `is' in the land of Canaan, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and encampeth before the city,
field: 1033019
1
33
19
and he buyeth the portion of the field where he hath stretched out his tent, from the hand of the sons of Hamor, father of Shechem, for a hundred kesitah;
field: 1033020
1
33
20
and he setteth up there an altar, and proclaimeth at it God -- the God of Israel.
field: 1034001
1
34
1
And Dinah, daughter of Leah, whom she hath borne to Jacob, goeth out to look on the daughters of the land,
field: 1034002
1
34
2
and Shechem, son of Hamor the Hivite, a prince of the land, seeth her, and taketh her, and lieth with her, and humbleth her;
field: 1034003
1
34
3
and his soul cleaveth to Dinah, daughter of Jacob, and he loveth the young person, and speaketh unto the heart of the young person.
field: 1034004
1
34
4
And Shechem speaketh unto Hamor his father, saying, `Take for me this damsel for a wife.'
field: 1034005
1
34
5
And Jacob hath heard that he hath defiled Dinah his daughter, and his sons were with his cattle in the field, and Jacob kept silent till their coming.
field: 1034006
1
34
6
And Hamor, father of Shechem, goeth out unto Jacob to speak with him;
field: 1034007
1
34
7
and the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard, and the men grieve themselves, and it `is' very displeasing to them, for folly he hath done against Israel, to lie with the daughter of Jacob -- and so it is not done.
field: 1034008
1
34
8
And Hamor speaketh with them, saying, `Shechem, my son, his soul hath cleaved to your daughter; give her, I pray you, to him for a wife,
field: 1034009
1
34
9
and join ye in marriage with us; your daughters ye give to us, and our daughters ye take to yourselves,
field: 1034010
1
34
10
and with us ye dwell, and the land is before you; dwell ye and trade `in' it, and have possessions in it.'
field: 1034011
1
34
11
And Shechem saith unto her father, and unto her brethren, `Let me find grace in your eyes, and that which ye say unto me, I give;
field: 1034012
1
34
12
multiply on me exceedingly dowry and gift, and I give as ye say unto me, and give to me the young person for a wife.'
field: 1034013
1
34
13
And the sons of Jacob answer Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and they speak (because he defiled Dinah their sister),
field: 1034014
1
34
14
and say unto them, `We are not able to do this thing, to give our sister to one who hath a foreskin: for it `is' a reproach to us.
field: 1034015
1
34
15
`Only for this we consent to you; if ye be as we, to have every male of you circumcised,
field: 1034016
1
34
16
then we have given our daughters to you, and your daughters we take to ourselves, and we have dwelt with you, and have become one people;
field: 1034017
1
34
17
and if ye hearken not unto us to be circumcised, then we have taken our daughter, and have gone.'
field: 1034018
1
34
18
And their words are good in the eyes of Hamor, and in the eyes of Shechem, Hamor's son;
field: 1034019
1
34
19
and the young man delayed not to do the thing, for he had delight in Jacob's daughter, and he is honourable above all the house of his father.
field: 1034020
1
34
20
And Hamor cometh -- Shechem his son also -- unto the gate of their city, and they speak unto the men of their city, saying,
field: 1034021
1
34
21
`These men are peaceable with us; then let them dwell in the land, and trade `in' it; and the land, lo, `is' wide before them; their daughters let us take to ourselves for wives, and our daughters give to them.
field: 1034022
1
34
22
`Only for this do the men consent to us, to dwell with us, to become one people, in every male of us being circumcised, as they are circumcised;
field: 1034023
1
34
23
their cattle, and their substance, and all their beasts -- are they not ours? only let us consent to them, and they dwell with us.'
field: 1034024
1
34
24
And unto Hamor, and unto Shechem his son, hearken do all those going out of the gate of his city, and every male is circumcised, all those going out of the gate of his city.
field: 1034025
1
34
25
And it cometh to pass, on the third day, in their being pained, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, take each his sword, and come in against the city confidently, and slay every male;
field: 1034026
1
34
26
and Hamor, and Shechem his son, they have slain by the mouth of the sword, and they take Dinah out of Shechem's house, and go out.
field: 1034027
1
34
27
Jacob's sons have come in upon the wounded, and they spoil the city, because they had defiled their sister;
field: 1034028
1
34
28
their flock and their herd, and their asses, and that which `is' in the city, and that which `is' in the field, have they taken;
field: 1034029
1
34
29
and all their wealth, and all their infants, and their wives they have taken captive, and they spoil also all that `is' in the house.
field: 1034030
1
34
30
And Jacob saith unto Simeon and unto Levi, `Ye have troubled me, by causing me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanite, and among the Perizzite: and I `am' few in number, and they have been gathered against me, and have smitten me, and I have been destroyed, I and my house.'
field: 1034031
1
34
31
And they say, `As a harlot doth he make our sister?'
field: 1035001
1
35
1
And God saith unto Jacob, `Rise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there, and make there an altar to God, who appeared unto thee in thy fleeing from the face of Esau thy brother.'
field: 1035002
1
35
2
And Jacob saith unto his household, and unto all who `are' with him, `Turn aside the gods of the stranger which `are' in your midst, and cleanse yourselves, and change your garments;
field: 1035003
1
35
3
and we rise, and go up to Bethel, and I make there an altar to God, who is answering me in the day of my distress, and is with me in the way that I have gone.'
field: 1035004
1
35
4
And they give unto Jacob all the gods of the stranger that `are' in their hand, and the rings that `are' in their ears, and Jacob hideth them under the oak which `is' by Shechem;
field: 1035005
1
35
5
and they journey, and the terror of God is on the cities which `are' round about them, and they have not pursued after the sons of Jacob.
field: 1035006
1
35
6
And Jacob cometh in to Luz which `is' in the land of Canaan (it `is' Bethel), he and all the people who `are' with him,
field: 1035007
1
35
7
and he buildeth there an altar, and proclaimeth at the place the God of Bethel: for there had God been revealed unto him, in his fleeing from the face of his brother.
field: 1035008
1
35
8
And Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, dieth, and she is buried at the lower part of Bethel, under the oak, and he calleth its name `Oak of weeping.'
field: 1035009
1
35
9
And God appeareth unto Jacob again, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and blesseth him;
field: 1035010
1
35
10
and God saith to him, `Thy name `is' Jacob: thy name is no more called Jacob, but Israel is thy name;' and He calleth his name Israel.
field: 1035011
1
35
11
And God saith to him, `I `am' God Almighty; be fruitful and multiply, a nation and an assembly of nations is from thee, and kings from thy loins go out;
field: 1035012
1
35
12
and the land which I have given to Abraham and to Isaac -- to thee I give it, yea to thy seed after thee I give the land.'
field: 1035013
1
35
13
And God goeth up from him, in the place where He hath spoken with him.
field: 1035014
1
35
14
And Jacob setteth up a standing pillar in the place where He hath spoken with him, a standing pillar of stone, and he poureth on it an oblation, and he poureth on it oil;
field: 1035015
1
35
15
and Jacob calleth the name of the place where God spake with him Bethel.
field: 1035016
1
35
16
And they journey from Bethel, and there is yet a kibrath of land before entering Ephratha, and Rachel beareth, and is sharply pained in her bearing;
field: 1035017
1
35
17
and it cometh to pass, in her being sharply pained in her bearing, that the midwife saith to her, `Fear not, for this also `is' a son for thee.'
field: 1035018
1
35
18
And it cometh to pass in the going out of her soul (for she died), that she calleth his name Ben-Oni; and his father called him Benjamin;
field: 1035019
1
35
19
and Rachel dieth, and is buried in the way to Ephratha, which `is' Bethlehem,
field: 1035020
1
35
20
and Jacob setteth up a standing pillar over her grave; which `is' the standing pillar of Rachel's grave unto this day.
field: 1035021
1
35
21
And Israel journeyeth, and stretcheth out his tent beyond the tower of Edar;
field: 1035022
1
35
22
and it cometh to pass in Israel's dwelling in that land, that Reuben goeth, and lieth with Bilhah his father's concubine; and Israel heareth.
field: 1035023
1
35
23
And the sons of Jacob are twelve. Sons of Leah: Jacob's first-born Reuben, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.
field: 1035024
1
35
24

field: 1035027
1
35
27
And Jacob cometh unto Isaac his father, at Mamre, the city of Arba (which `is' Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac have sojourned.
field: 1035028
1
35
28
And the days of Isaac are a hundred and eighty years,
field: 1035029
1
35
29
and Isaac expireth, and dieth, and is gathered unto his people, aged and satisfied with days; and bury him do Esau and Jacob his sons.
field: 1036001
1
36
1
And these `are' births of Esau, who `is' Edom.
field: 1036002
1
36
2
Esau hath taken his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah daughter of Anah, daughter of Zibeon the Hivite,
field: 1036003
1

6
And Esau taketh his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and his cattle, and all his beasts, and all his substance which he hath acquired in the land of Canaan, and goeth into the country from the face of Jacob his brother;
field: 1036007
1
36
7
for their substance was more abundant than to dwell together, and the land of their sojournings was not able to bear them because of their cattle;
field: 1036008
1
36
8
and Esau dwelleth in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.

chief Magdiel, chief Iram: these `are' chiefs of Edom, in reference to their dwellings, in the land of their possession; he `is' Esau father of Edom.

And Jacob dwelleth in the land of his father's sojournings -- in the land of Canaan.
field: 1037002
1
37
2
These `are' births of Jacob: Joseph, a son of seventeen years, hath been enjoying himself with his brethren among the flock, (and he `is' a youth,) with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives, and Joseph bringeth in an account of their evil unto their father.
field: 1037003
1
37
3
And Israel hath loved Joseph more than any of his sons, for he `is' a son of his old age, and hath made for him a long coat;
field: 1037004
1
37
4
and his brethren see that their father hath loved him more than any of his brethren, and they hate him, and have not been able to speak `to' him peaceably.
field: 1037005
1
37
5
And Joseph dreameth a dream, and declareth to his brethren, and they add still more to hate him.
field: 1037006
1
37
6
And he saith unto them, `Hear ye, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:
field: 1037007
1
37
7
that, lo, we are binding bundles in the midst of the field, and lo, my bundle hath arisen, and hath also stood up, and lo, your bundles are round about, and bow themselves to my bundle.'
field: 1037008
1
37
8
And his brethren say to him, `Dost thou certainly reign over us? dost thou certainly rule over us?' and they add still more to hate him, for his dreams, and for his words.
field: 1037009
1
37
9
And he dreameth yet another dream, and recounteth it to his brethren, and saith, `Lo, I have dreamed a dream again, and lo, the sun and the moon, and eleven stars, are bowing themselves to me.'
field: 1037010
1
37
10
And he recounteth unto his father, and unto his brethren; and his father pusheth against him, and saith to him, `What `is' this dream which thou hast dreamt? do we certainly come -- I, and thy mother, and thy brethren -- to bow ourselves to thee, to the earth?'
field: 1037011
1
37
11
and his brethren are zealous against him, and his father hath watched the matter.
field: 1037012
1
37
12
And his brethren go to feed the flock of their father in Shechem,
field: 1037013
1
37
13
and Israel saith unto Joseph, `Are not thy brethren feeding in Shechem? come, and I send thee unto them;' and he saith to him, `Here `am' I;'
field: 1037014
1
37
14
and he saith to him, `Go, I pray thee, see the peace of thy brethren, and the peace of the flock, and bring me back word;' and he sendeth him from the valley of Hebron, and he cometh to Shechem.
field: 1037015
1
37
15
And a man findeth him, and lo, he is wandering in the field, and the man asketh him, saying, `What seekest thou?'
field: 1037016
1
37
16
and he saith, `My brethren I am seeking, declare to me, I pray thee, where they are feeding?'
field: 1037017
1
37
17
And the man saith, `They have journeyed from this, for I have heard some saying, Let us go to Dothan,' and Joseph goeth after his brethren, and findeth them in Dothan.
field: 1037018
1
37
18
And they see him from afar, even before he draweth near unto them, and they conspire against him to put him to death.
field: 1037019
1
37
19
And they say one unto another, `Lo, this man of the dreams cometh;
field: 1037020
1
37
20
and now, come, and we slay him, and cast him into one of the pits, and have said, An evil beast hath devoured him; and we see what his dreams are.'
field: 1037021
1
37
21
And Reuben heareth, and delivereth him out of their hand, and saith, `Let us not smite the life;'
field: 1037022
1
37
22
and Reuben saith unto them, `Shed no blood; cast him into this pit which `is' in the wilderness, and put not forth a hand upon him,' -- in order to deliver him out of their hand, to bring him back unto his father.
field: 1037023
1
37
23
And it cometh to pass, when Joseph hath come unto his brethren, that they strip Joseph of his coat, the long coat which `is' upon him,
field: 1037024
1
37
24
and take him and cast him into the pit, and the pit `is' empty, there is no water in it.
field: 1037025
1
37
25
And they sit down to eat bread, and they lift up their eyes, and look, and lo, a company of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead, and their camels bearing spices, and balm, and myrrh, going to take `them' down to Egypt.
field: 1037026
1
37
26
And Judah saith unto his brethren, `What gain when we slay our brother, and have concealed his blood?
field: 1037027
1
37
27
Come, and we sell him to the Ishmaelites, and our hands are not on him, for he `is' our brother -- our flesh;' and his brethren hearken.
field: 1037028
1
37
28
And Midianite merchantmen pass by and they draw out and bring up Joseph out of the pit, and sell Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty silverlings, and they bring Joseph into Egypt.
field: 1037029
1
37
29
And Reuben returneth unto the pit, and lo, Joseph is not in the pit, and he rendeth his garments,
field: 1037030
1
37
30
and he returneth unto his brethren, and saith, `The lad is not, and I -- whither am I going?'
field: 1037031
1
37
31
And they take the coat of Joseph, and slaughter a kid of the goats, and dip the coat in the blood,
field: 1037032
1
37
32
and send the long coat, and they bring `it' in unto their father, and say, `This have we found; discern, we pray thee, whether it `is' thy son's coat or not?'
field: 1037033
1
37
33
And he discerneth it, and saith, `My son's coat! an evil beast hath devoured him; torn -- torn is Joseph!'
field: 1037034
1
37
34
And Jacob rendeth his raiment, and putteth sackcloth on his loins, and becometh a mourner for his son many days,
field: 1037035
1
37
35
and all his sons and all his daughters rise to comfort him, and he refuseth to comfort himself, and saith, `For -- I go down mourning unto my son, to Sheol,' and his father weepeth for him.
field: 1037036
1
37
36
And the Medanites have sold him unto Egypt, to Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, head of the executioners.
field: 1038001
1
38
1
And it cometh to pass, at that time, that Judah goeth down from his brethren, and turneth aside unto a man, an Adullamite, whose name `is' Hirah;
field: 1038002
1
38
2
and Judah seeth there the daughter of a man, a Canaanite, whose name `is' Shuah, and taketh her, and goeth in unto her.
field: 1038003
1
38
3
And she conceiveth, and beareth a son, and he calleth his name Er;
field: 1038004
1
38
4
and she conceiveth again, and beareth a son, and calleth his name Onan;
field: 1038005
1
38
5
and she addeth again, and beareth a son, and calleth his name Shelah; and he was in Chezib in her bearing him.
field: 1038006
1
38
6
And Judah taketh a wife for Er, his first-born, and her name `is' Tamar;
field: 1038007
1
38
7
and Er, Judah's first-born, is evil in the eyes of Jehovah, and Jehovah doth put him to death.
field: 1038008
1
38
8
And Judah saith to Onan, `Go in unto the wife of thy brother, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother;'
field: 1038009
1
38
9
and Onan knoweth that the seed is not `reckoned' his; and it hath come to pass, if he hath gone in unto his brother's wife, that he hath destroyed `it' to the earth, so as not to give seed to his brother;
field: 1038010
1
38
10
and that which he hath done is evil in the eyes of Jehovah, and He putteth him also to death.
field: 1038011
1
38
11
And Judah saith to Tamar his daughter-in-law, `Abide a widow at thy father's house, till Shelah my son groweth up;' for he said, `Lest he die -- even he -- like his brethren;' and Tamar goeth and dwelleth at her father's house.
field: 1038012
1
38
12
And the days are multiplied, and the daughter of Shuah, Judah's wife, dieth; and Judah is comforted, and goeth up unto his sheep-shearers, he and Hirah his friend the Adullamite, to Timnath.
field: 1038013
1
38
13
And it is declared to Tamar, saying, `Lo, thy husband's father is going up to Timnath to shear his flock;'
field: 1038014
1
38
14
and she turneth aside the garments of her widowhood from off her, and covereth herself with a vail, and wrappeth herself up, and sitteth in the opening of Enayim, which `is' by the way to Timnath, for she hath seen that Shelah hath grown up, and she hath not been given to him for a wife.
field: 1038015
1
38
15
And Judah seeth her, and reckoneth her for a harlot, for she hath covered her face,
field: 1038016
1
38
16
and he turneth aside unto her by the way, and saith, `Come, I pray thee, let me come in unto thee,' (for he hath not known that she `is' his daughter-in-law); and she saith, `What dost thou give to me, that thou mayest come in unto me?'
field: 1038017
1
38
17
and he saith, `I -- I send a kid of the goats from the flock.' And she saith, `Dost thou give a pledge till thou send `it'?'
field: 1038018
1
38
18
and he saith, `What `is' the pledge that I give to thee?' and she saith, `Thy seal, and thy ribbon, and thy staff which `is' in thy hand;' and he giveth to her, and goeth in unto her, and she conceiveth to him;
field: 1038019
1
38
19
and she riseth, and goeth, and turneth aside her vail from off her, and putteth on the garments of her widowhood.
field: 1038020
1
38
20
And Judah sendeth the kid of the goats by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the hand of the woman, and he hath not found her.
field: 1038021
1
38
21
And he asketh the men of her place, saying, `Where `is' the separated one -- she in Enayim, by the way?' and they say, `There hath not been in this `place' a separated one.'
field: 1038022
1
38
22
And he turneth back unto Judah, and saith, `I have not found her; and the men of the place also have said, There hath not been in this `place' a separated one,'
field: 1038023
1
38
23
and Judah saith, `Let her take to herself, lest we become despised; lo, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.'
field: 1038024
1
38
24
And it cometh to pass about three months `after', that it is declared to Judah, saying, `Tamar thy daughter-in-law hath committed fornication; and also, lo, she hath conceived by fornication:' and Judah saith, `Bring her out -- and she is burnt.'
field: 1038025
1
38
25
She is brought out, and she hath sent unto her husband's father, saying, `To a man whose these `are', I `am' pregnant;' and she saith, `Discern, I pray thee, whose `are' these -- the seal, and the ribbons, and the staff.'
field: 1038026
1
38
26
And Judah discerneth and saith, `She hath been more righteous than I, because that I did not give her to Shelah my son;' and he hath not added to know her again.
field: 1038027
1
38
27
And it cometh to pass in the time of her bearing, that lo, twins `are' in her womb;
field: 1038028
1
38
28
and it cometh to pass in her bearing, that `one' giveth out a hand, and the midwife taketh and bindeth on his hand a scarlet thread, saying, `This hath come out first.'
field: 1038029
1
38
29
And it cometh to pass as he draweth back his hand, that lo, his brother hath come out, and she saith, `What! thou hast broken forth -- on thee `is' the breach;' and he calleth his name Pharez;
field: 1038030
1
38
30
and afterwards hath his brother come out, on whose hand `is' the scarlet thread, and he calleth his name Zarah.
field: 1039001

1
And Joseph hath been brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, head of the executioners, an Egyptian man, buyeth him out of the hands of the Ishmaelites who have brought him thither.
field: 1039002
1
39
2
And Jehovah is with Joseph, and he is a prosperous man, and he is in the house of his lord the Egyptian,
field: 1039003
1
39
3
and his lord seeth that Jehovah is with him, and all that he is doing Jehovah is causing to prosper in his hand,
field: 1039004
1
39
4
and Joseph findeth grace in his eyes and serveth him, and he appointeth him over his house, and all that he hath he hath given into his hand.
field: 1039005
1
39
5
And it cometh to pass from the time that he hath appointed him over his house, and over all that he hath, that Jehovah blesseth the house of the Egyptian for Joseph's sake, and the blessing of Jehovah is on all that he hath, in the house, and in the field;
field: 1039006
1
39
6
and he leaveth all that he hath in the hand of Joseph, and he hath not known anything that he hath, except the bread which he is eating. And Joseph is of a fair form, and of a fair appearance.
field: 1039007
1
39
7
And it cometh to pass after these things, that his lord's wife lifteth up her eyes unto Joseph, and saith, `Lie with me;'
field: 1039008
1
39
8
and he refuseth, and saith unto his lord's wife, `Lo, my lord hath not known what `is' with me in the house, and all that he hath he hath given into my hand;
field: 1039009
1
39
9
none is greater in this house than I, and he hath not withheld from me anything, except thee, because thou `art' his wife; and how shall I do this great evil? -- then have I sinned against God.'
field: 1039010
1
39
10
And it cometh to pass at her speaking unto Joseph day `by' day, that he hath not hearkened unto her, to lie near her, to be with her;
field: 1039011
1
39
11
and it cometh to pass about this day, that he goeth into the house to do his work, and there is none of the men of the house there in the house,
field: 1039012
1
39
12
and she catcheth him by his garment, saying, `Lie with me;' and he leaveth his garment in her hand, and fleeth, and goeth without.
field: 1039013
1
39
13
And it cometh to pass when she seeth that he hath left his garment in her hand, and fleeth without,
field: 1039014
1
39
14
that she calleth for the men of her house, and speaketh to them, saying, `See, he hath brought in to us a man, a Hebrew, to play with us; he hath come in unto me, to lie with me, and I call with a loud voice,
field: 1039015
1
39
15
and it cometh to pass, when he heareth that I have lifted up my voice and call, that he leaveth his garment near me, and fleeth, and goeth without.'
field: 1039016
1
39
16
And she placeth his garment near her, until the coming in of his lord unto his house.
field: 1039017
1
39
17
And she speaketh unto him according to these words, saying, `The Hebrew servant whom thou hast brought unto us, hath come in unto me to play with me;
field: 1039018
1
39
18
and it cometh to pass, when I lift my voice and call, that he leaveth his garment near me, and fleeth without.'
field: 1039019
1
39
19
And it cometh to pass when his lord heareth the words of his wife, which she hath spoken unto him, saying, `According to these things hath thy servant done to me,' that his anger burneth;
field: 1039020
1
39
20
and Joseph's lord taketh him, and putteth him unto the round-house, a place where the king's prisoners `are' bound; and he is there in the round-house.
field: 1039021
1
39
21
And Jehovah is with Joseph, and stretcheth out kindness unto him, and putteth his grace in the eyes of the chief of the round-house;
field: 1039022
1
39
22
and the chief of the round-house giveth into the hand of Joseph all the prisoners who `are' in the round-house, and of all that they are doing there, he hath been doer;
field: 1039023
1
39
23
the chief of the round-house seeth not anything under his hand, because Jehovah `is' with him, and that which he is doing Jehovah is causing to prosper.
field: 1040001
1
40
1
And it cometh to pass, after these things -- the butler of the king of Egypt and the baker have sinned against their lord, against the king of Egypt;
field: 1040002
1
40
2
and Pharaoh is wroth against his two eunuchs, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers,
field: 1040003
1
40
3
and giveth them in charge in the house of the chief of the executioners, unto the round-house, the place where Joseph `is' a prisoner,
field: 1040004
1
40
4
and the chief of the executioners chargeth Joseph with them, and he serveth them; and they are days in charge.
field: 1040005
1
40
5
And they dream a dream both of them, each his dream in one night, each according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker whom the king of Egypt hath, who `are' prisoners in the round-house.
field: 1040006
1
40
6
And Joseph cometh in unto them in the morning, and seeth them, and lo, they `are' morose;
field: 1040007
1
40
7
and he asketh Pharaoh's eunuchs who `are' with him in charge in the house of his lord, saying, `Wherefore `are' your faces sad to-day?'
field: 1040008
1
40
8
And they say unto him, `A dream we have dreamed, and there is no interpreter of it;' and Joseph saith unto them, `Are not interpretations with God? recount, I pray you, to me.'
field: 1040009
1
40
9
And the chief of the butlers recounteth his dream to Joseph, and saith to him, `In my dream, then lo, a vine `is' before me!
field: 1040010
1
40
10
and in the vine `are' three branches, and it `is' as it were flourishing; gone up hath its blossom, its clusters have ripened grapes;
field: 1040011
1
40
11
and Pharaoh's cup `is' in my hand, and I take the grapes and press them into the cup of Pharaoh, and I give the cup into the hand of Pharaoh.'
field: 1040012
1
40
12
And Joseph saith to him, `This `is' its interpretation: the three branches are three days;
field: 1040013
1
40
13
yet, within three days doth Pharaoh lift up thy head, and hath put thee back on thy station, and thou hast given the cup of Pharaoh into his hand, according to the former custom when thou wast his butler.
field: 1040014
1
40
14
`Surely if thou hast remembered me with thee, when it is well with thee, and hast done (I pray thee) kindness with me, and hast made mention of me unto Pharaoh, then hast thou brought me out from this house,
field: 1040015
1
40
15
for I was really stolen from the land of the Hebrews; and here also have I done nothing that they have put me in the pit.'
field: 1040016
1
40
16
And the chief of the bakers seeth that he hath interpreted good, and he saith unto Joseph, `I also `am' in a dream, and lo, three baskets of white bread `are' on my head,
field: 1040017
1
40
17
and in the uppermost basket `are' of all `kinds' of Pharaoh's food, work of a baker; and the birds are eating them out of the basket, from off my head.'
field: 1040018
1
40
18
And Joseph answereth and saith, `This `is' its interpretation: the three baskets are three days;
field: 1040019
1
40
19
yet, within three days doth Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and hath hanged thee on a tree, and the birds have eaten thy flesh from off thee.'
field: 1040020
1
40
20
And it cometh to pass, on the third day, Pharaoh's birthday, that he maketh a banquet to all his servants, and lifteth up the head of the chief of the butlers, and the head of the chief of the bakers among his servants,
field: 1040021
1
40
21
and he putteth back the chief of the butlers to his butlership, and he giveth the cup into the hand of Pharaoh;
field: 1040022
1
40
22
and the chief of the bakers he hath hanged, as Joseph hath interpreted to them;
field: 1040023
1
40
23
and the chief of the butlers hath not remembered Joseph, but forgetteth him.
field: 1041001
1
41
1
And it cometh to pass, at the end of two years of days that Pharaoh is dreaming, and lo, he is standing by the River,
field: 1041002
1
41
2
and lo, from the River coming up are seven kine, of fair appearance, and fat `in' flesh, and they feed among the reeds;
field: 1041003
1
41
3
and lo, seven other kine are coming up after them out of the River, of bad appearance, and lean `in' flesh, and they stand near the kine on the edge of the River,
field: 1041004
1
41
4
and the kine of bad appearance and lean `in' flesh eat up the seven kine of fair appearance, and fat -- and Pharaoh awaketh.
field: 1041005
1
41
5
And he sleepeth, and dreameth a second time, and lo, seven ears are coming up on one stalk, fat and good,
field: 1041006
1
41
6
and lo, seven ears, thin, and blasted with an east wind, are springing up after them;
field: 1041007
1
41
7
and the thin ears swallow the seven fat and full ears -- and Pharaoh awaketh, and lo, a dream.
field: 1041008
1
41
8
And it cometh to pass in the morning, that his spirit is moved, and he sendeth and calleth all the scribes of Egypt, and all its wise men, and Pharaoh recounteth to them his dream, and there is no interpreter of them to Pharaoh.
field: 1041009
1
41
9
And the chief of the butlers speaketh with Pharaoh, saying, `My sin I mention this day:
field: 1041010
1
41
10
Pharaoh hath been wroth against his servants, and giveth me into charge in the house of the chief of the executioners, me and the chief of the bakers;
field: 1041011
1
41
11
and we dream a dream in one night, I and he, each according to the interpretation of his dream we have dreamed.
field: 1041012
1
41
12
And there `is' with us a youth, a Hebrew, servant to the chief of the executioners, and we recount to him, and he interpreteth to us our dreams, `to' each according to his dream hath he interpreted,
field: 1041013
1
41
13
and it cometh to pass, as he hath interpreted to us so it hath been, me he put back on my station, and him he hanged.'
field: 1041014
1
41
14
And Pharaoh sendeth and calleth Joseph, and they cause him to run out of the pit, and he shaveth, and changeth his garments, and cometh in unto Pharaoh.
field: 1041015
1
41
15
And Pharaoh saith unto Joseph, `A dream I have dreamed, and there is no interpreter of it, and I -- I have heard concerning thee, saying, Thou understandest a dream to interpret it,'

41
16
and Joseph answereth Pharaoh, saying, `Without me -- God doth answer Pharaoh with peace.'
field: 1041017
1
41
17
And Pharaoh speaketh unto Joseph: `In my dream, lo, I am standing by the edge of the River,
field: 1041018
1
41
18
and lo, out of the River coming up are seven kine, fat `in' flesh, and of fair form, and they feed among the reeds;
field: 1041019
1
41
19
and lo, seven other kine are coming up after them, thin, and of very bad form, and lean `in' flesh; I have not seen like these in all the land of Egypt for badness.
field: 1041020
1
41
20
`And the lean and the bad kine eat up the first seven fat kine,
field: 1041021
1
41
21
and they come in unto their midst, and it hath not been known that they have come in unto their midst, and their appearance `is' bad as at the commencement; and I awake.
field: 1041022
1
41
22
`And I see in my dream, and lo, seven ears are coming up on one stalk, full and good;
field: 1041023
1
41
23
and lo, seven ears, withered, thin, blasted with an east wind, are springing up after them;
field: 1041024
1
41
24
and the thin ears swallow the seven good ears; and I tell unto the scribes, and there is none declaring to me.'
field: 1041025
1
41
25
And Joseph saith unto Pharaoh, `The dream of Pharaoh is one: that which God is doing he hath declared to Pharaoh;
field: 1041026
1
41
26
the seven good kine are seven years, and the seven good ears are seven years, the dream is one;
field: 1041027
1
41
27
and the seven thin and bad kine which are coming up after them are seven years, and the seven empty ears, blasted with an east wind, are seven years of famine;
field: 1041028
1
41
28
this `is' the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: That which God is doing, he hath shewn Pharaoh.
field: 1041029
1
41
29
`Lo, seven years are coming of great abundance in all the land of Egypt,
field: 1041030
1
41
30
and seven years of famine have arisen after them, and all the plenty is forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine hath finished the land,
field: 1041031
1
41
31
and the plenty is not known in the land because of that famine afterwards, for it `is' very grievous.
field: 1041032
1
41
32
`And because of the repeating of the dream unto Pharaoh twice, surely the thing is established by God, and God is hastening to do it.
field: 1041033
1
41
33
`And now, let Pharaoh provide a man, intelligent and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt;
field: 1041034
1
41
34
let Pharaoh make and appoint overseers over the land, and receive a fifth of the land of Egypt in the seven years of plenty,
field: 1041035
1
41
35
and they gather all the food of these good years that are coming, and heap up corn under the hand of Pharaoh -- food in the cities; and they have kept `it',
field: 1041036
1
41
36
and the food hath been for a store for the land, for the seven years of famine which are in the land of Egypt; and the land is cut off by the famine.'
field: 1041037
1
41
37
And the thing is good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants,
field: 1041038
1
41
38
and Pharaoh saith unto his servants, `Do we find like this, a man in whom the spirit of God `is'?'
field: 1041039
1
41
39
and Pharaoh saith unto Joseph, `After God's causing thee to know all this, there is none intelligent and wise as thou;
field: 1041040
1
41
40
thou -- thou art over my house, and at thy mouth do all my people kiss; only in the throne I am greater than thou.'
field: 1041041
1
41
41
And Pharaoh saith unto Joseph, `See, I have put thee over all the land of Egypt.'
field: 1041042
1
41
42
And Pharaoh turneth aside his seal-ring from off his hand, and putteth it on the hand of Joseph, and clotheth him `with' garments of fine linen, and placeth a chain of gold on his neck,
field: 1041043
1
41
43
and causeth him to ride in the second chariot which he hath, and they proclaim before him, `Bow the knee!' and -- to put him over all the land of Egypt.
field: 1041044
1
41
44
And Pharaoh saith unto Joseph, `I `am' Pharaoh, and without thee a man doth not lift up his hand and his foot in all the land of Egypt;'
field: 1041045
1
41
45
and Pharaoh calleth Joseph's name Zaphnath-Paaneah, and he giveth to him Asenath daughter of Poti-Pherah, priest of On, for a wife, and Joseph goeth out over the land of Egypt.
field: 1041046
1
41
46
And Joseph `is' a son of thirty years in his standing before Pharaoh king of Egypt, and Joseph goeth out from the presence of Pharaoh, and passeth over through all the land of Egypt;
field: 1041047
1
41
47
and the land maketh in the seven years of plenty by handfuls.
field: 1041048
1
41
48
And he gathereth all the food of the seven years which have been in the land of Egypt, and putteth food in the cities; the food of the field which `is' round about `each' city hath he put in its midst;
field: 1041049
1
41
49
and Joseph gathereth corn as sand of the sea, multiplying exceedingly, until that he hath ceased to number, for there is no number.
field: 1041050
1
41
50
And to Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine cometh, whom Asenath daughter of Poti-Pherah, priest of On, hath borne to him,
field: 1041051
1
41
51
and Joseph calleth the name of the first-born Manasseh: `for, God hath made me to forget all my labour, and all the house of my father;'
field: 1041052
1
41
52
and the name of the second he hath called Ephraim: `for, God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of mine affliction.'
field: 1041053
1
41
53
And the seven years of plenty are completed which have been in the land of Egypt,
field: 1041054
1
41
54
and the seven years of famine begin to come, as Joseph said, and famine is in all the lands, but in all the land of Egypt hath been bread;
field: 1041055
1
41
55
and all the land of Egypt is famished, and the people crieth unto Pharaoh for bread, and Pharaoh saith to all the Egyptians, `Go unto Joseph; that which he saith to you -- do.'
field: 1041056
1
41
56
And the famine has been over all the face of the land, and Joseph openeth all `places' which have `corn' in them, and selleth to the Egyptians; and the famine is severe in the land of Egypt,
field: 1041057
1
41
57
and all the earth hath come to Egypt, to buy, unto Joseph, for the famine was severe in all the earth.
field: 1042001
1
42
1
And Jacob seeth that there is corn in Egypt, and Jacob saith to his sons, `Why do you look at each other?'
field: 1042002
1
42
2
he saith also, `Lo, I have heard that there is corn in Egypt, go down thither, and buy for us from thence, and we live and do not die;'
field: 1042003
1
42
3
and the ten brethren of Joseph go down to buy corn in Egypt,
field: 1042004
1
42
4
and Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob hath not sent with his brethren, for he said, `Lest mischief meet him.'
field: 1042005
1
42
5
And the sons of Israel come to buy in the midst of those coming, for the famine hath been in the land of Canaan,
field: 1042006
1
42
6
and Joseph is the ruler over the land, he who is selling to all the people of the land, and Joseph's brethren come and bow themselves to him -- face to the earth.
field: 1042007
1
42
7
And Joseph seeth his brethren, and discerneth them, and maketh himself strange unto them, and speaketh with them sharp things, and saith unto them, `From whence have ye come?' and they say, `From the land of Canaan -- to buy food.'
field: 1042008
1
42
8
And Joseph discerneth his brethren, but they have not discerned him,
field: 1042009
1
42
9
and Joseph remembereth the dreams which he dreamed of them, and saith unto them, `Ye `are' spies; to see the nakedness of the land ye have come.'
field: 1042010
1
42
10
And they say unto him, `No, my lord, but thy servants have come to buy food;
field: 1042011
1
42
11
we `are' all of us sons of one man, we `are' right men; thy servants have not been spies;'
field: 1042012
1
42
12
and he saith unto them, `No, but the nakedness of the land ye have come to see;'
field: 1042013
1
42
13
and they say, `Thy servants `are' twelve brethren; we `are' sons of one man in the land of Canaan, and lo, the young one `is' with our father to-day, and the one is not.'
field: 1042014
1
42
14
And Joseph saith unto them, `This `is' that which I have spoken unto you, saying, Ye `are' spies,
field: 1042015
1
42
15
by this ye are proved: Pharaoh liveth! if ye go out from this -- except by your young brother coming hither;
field: 1042016
1
42
16
send one of you, and let him bring your brother, and ye, remain ye bound, and let your words be proved, whether truth be with you: and if not -- Pharaoh liveth! surely ye `are' spies;'
field: 1042017
1
42
17
and he removeth them unto charge three days.
field: 1042018
1
42
18
And Joseph saith unto them on the third day, `This do and live; God I fear!
field: 1042019
1
42
19
if ye `are' right men, let one of your brethren be bound in the house of your ward, and ye, go, carry in corn `for' the famine of your houses,
field: 1042020
1
42
20
and your young brother ye bring unto me, and your words are established, and ye die not;' and they do so.
field: 1042021
1
42
21
And they say one unto another, `Verily we `are' guilty concerning our brother, because we saw the distress of his soul, in his making supplication unto us, and we did not hearken: therefore hath this distress come upon us.'
field: 1042022
1
42
22
And Reuben answereth them, saying, `Spake I not unto you, saying, Sin not against the lad? and ye hearkened not; and his blood also, lo, it is required.'
field: 1042023
1
42
23
And they have not known that Joseph understandeth, for the interpreter `is' between them;
field: 1042024
1
42
24
and he turneth round from them, and weepeth, and turneth back unto them, and speaketh unto them, and taketh from them Simeon, and bindeth him before their eyes.
field: 1042025
1
42
25
And Joseph commandeth, and they fill their vessels `with' corn, also to put back the money of each unto his sack, and to give to them provision for the way; and one doth to them so.
field: 1042026
1
42
26
And they lift up their corn upon their asses, and go from thence,
field: 1042027
1
42
27
and the one openeth his sack to give provender to his ass at a lodging-place, and he seeth his money, and lo, it `is' in the mouth of his bag,
field: 1042028
1
42
28
and he saith unto his brethren, `My money hath been put back, and also, lo, in my bag:' and their heart goeth out, and they tremble, one to another saying, `What `is' this God hath done to us!'
field: 1042029
1
42
29
And they come in unto Jacob their father, to the land of Canaan, and they declare to him all the things meeting them, saying,
field: 1042030
1
42
30
`The man, the lord of the land, hath spoken with us sharp things, and maketh us as spies of the land;
field: 1042031
1
42
31
and we say unto him, We `are' right men, we have not been spies,
field: 1042032
1
42
32
we `are' twelve brethren, sons of our father, the one is not, and the young one `is' to-day with our father in the land of Canaan.
field: 1042033
1
42
33
`And the man, the lord of the land, saith unto us, By this I know that ye `are' right men -- one of your brethren leave with me, and `for' the famine of your houses take ye and go,
field: 1042034
1
42
34
and bring your young brother unto me, and I know that ye `are' not spies, but ye `are' right men; your brother I give to you, and ye trade with the land.'
field: 1042035
1
42
35
And it cometh to pass, they are emptying their sacks, and lo, the bundle of each man's silver `is' in his sack, and they see their bundles of silver, they and their father, and are afraid;
field: 1042036
1
42
36
and Jacob their father saith unto them, `Me ye have bereaved; Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and Benjamin ye take -- against me have been all these.'
field: 1042037
1
42
37
And Reuben speaketh unto his father, saying, `My two sons thou dost put to death, if I bring him not in unto thee; give him into my hand, and I -- I bring him back unto thee;'
field: 1042038
1
42
38
and he saith, `My son doth not go down with you, for his brother `is' dead, and he by himself is left; when mischief hath met him in the way in which ye go, then ye have brought down my grey hairs in sorrow to sheol.'
field: 1043001
1
43
1
And the famine `is' severe in the land;
field: 1043002
1
43
2
and it cometh to pass, when they have finished eating the corn which they brought from Egypt, that their father saith unto them, `Turn back, buy for us a little food.'
field: 1043003
1
43
3
And Judah speaketh unto him, saying, `The man protesting protested to us, saying, Ye do not see my face without your brother `being' with you;
field: 1043004
1
43
4
if thou art sending our brother with us, we go down, and buy for thee food,
field: 1043005
1
43
5
and if thou art not sending -- we do not go down, for the man said unto us, Ye do not see my face without your brother `being' with you.'
field: 1043006
1
43
6
And Israel saith, `Why did ye evil to me, by declaring to the man that ye had yet a brother?'
field: 1043007
1
43
7
and they say, `The man asked diligently concerning us, and concerning our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? have ye a brother? and we declare to him according to the tenor of these things; do we certainly know that he will say, Bring down your brother?'
field: 1043008
1
43
8
And Judah saith unto Israel his father, `Send the youth with me, and we arise, and go, and live, and do not die, both we, and thou, and our infants.
field: 1043009
1
43
9
I -- I am surety `for' him, from my hand thou dost require him; if I have not brought him in unto thee, and set him before thee -- then I have sinned against thee all the days;
field: 1043010
1
43
10
for if we had not lingered, surely now we had returned these two times.'
field: 1043011
1
43
11
And Israel their father saith unto them, `If so, now, this do: take of the praised thing of the land in your vessels, and take down to the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices and myrrh, nuts and almonds;
field: 1043012
1
43
12
and double money take in your hand, even the money which is brought back in the mouth of your bags, ye take back in your hand, it may be it `is' an oversight.
field: 1043013
1
43
13
`And take your brother, and rise, turn back unto the man;
field: 1043014
1
43
14
and God Almighty give to you mercies before the man, so that he hath sent to you your other brother and Benjamin; and I, when I am bereaved -- I am bereaved.'
field: 1043015
1
43
15
And the men take this present, double money also they have taken in their hand, and Benjamin; and they rise, and go down to Egypt, and stand before Joseph;
field: 1043016
1
43
16
and Joseph seeth Benjamin with them, and saith to him who `is' over his house, `Bring the men into the house, and slaughter an animal, and make ready, for with me do the men eat at noon.'
field: 1043017
1
43
17
And the man doth as Joseph hath said, and the man bringeth in the men into the house of Joseph,
field: 1043018
1
43
18
and the men are afraid because they have been brought into the house of Joseph, and they say, `For the matter of the money which was put back in our bags at the commencement are we brought in -- to roll himself upon us, and to throw himself on us, and to take us for servants -- our asses also.'
field: 1043019
1
43
19
And they come nigh unto the man who `is' over the house of Joseph, and speak unto him at the opening of the house,
field: 1043020
1
43
20
and say, `O, my lord, we really come down at the commencement to buy food;
field: 1043021
1
43
21
and it cometh to pass, when we have come in unto the lodging-place, and open our bags, that lo, each one's money `is' in the mouth of his bag, our money in its weight, and we bring it back in our hand;
field: 1043022
1
43
22
and other money have we brought down in our hand to buy food; we have not known who put our money in our bags.'
field: 1043023
1
43
23
And he saith, `Peace to you, fear not: your God and the God of your father hath given to you hidden treasure in your bags, your money came unto me;' and he bringeth out Simeon unto them.
field: 1043024
1
43
24
And the man bringeth in the men into Joseph's house, and giveth water, and they wash their feet; and he giveth provender for their asses,
field: 1043025
1
43
25
and they prepare the present until the coming of Joseph at noon, for they have heard that there they do eat bread.
field: 1043026
1
43
26
And Joseph cometh into the house, and they bring to him the present which `is' in their hand, into the house, and bow themselves to him, to the earth;
field: 1043027
1
43
27
and he asketh of them of peace, and saith, `Is your father well? the aged man of whom ye have spoken, is he yet alive?'
field: 1043028
1
43
28
and they say, `Thy servant our father `is' well, he is yet alive;' and they bow, and do obeisance.
field: 1043029
1
43
29
And he lifteth up his eyes, and seeth Benjamin his brother, his mother's son, and saith, `Is this your young brother, of whom ye have spoken unto me?' and he saith, `God favour thee, my son.'
field: 1043030
1
43
30
And Joseph hasteth, for his bowels have been moved for his brother, and he seeketh to weep, and entereth the inner chamber, and weepeth there;
field: 1043031
1
43
31
and he washeth his face, and goeth out, and refraineth himself, and saith, `Place bread.'
field: 1043032
1
43
32
And they place for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians who are eating with him by themselves: for the Egyptians are unable to eat bread with the Hebrews, for it `is' an abomination to the Egyptians.
field: 1043033
1
43
33
And they sit before him, the first-born according to his birthright, and the young one according to his youth, and the men wonder one at another;
field: 1043034
1
43
34
and he lifteth up gifts from before him unto them, and the gift of Benjamin is five hands more than the gifts of all of them; and they drink, yea, they drink abundantly with him.
field: 1044001
1
44
1
And he commandeth him who `is' over his house, saying, `Fill the bags of the men `with' food, as they are able to bear, and put the money of each in the mouth of his bag;
field: 1044002
1
44
2
and my cup, the silver cup, thou dost put in the mouth of the bag of the young one, and his corn-money;' and he doth according to the word of Joseph which he hath spoken.
field: 1044003
1
44
3
The morning is bright, and the men have been sent away, they and their asses --
field: 1044004
1
44
4
they have gone out of the city -- they have not gone far off -- and Joseph hath said to him who `is' over his house, `Rise, pursue after the men; and thou hast overtaken them, and thou hast said unto them, Why have ye recompensed evil for good?
field: 1044005
1
44
5
Is not this that with which my lord drinketh? and he observeth diligently with it; ye have done evil `in' that which ye have done.'
field: 1044006
1
44
6
And he overtaketh them, and speaketh unto them these words,
field: 1044007
1
44
7
and they say unto him, `Why doth my lord speak according to these words? far be it from thy servants to do according to this word;
field: 1044008
1
44
8
lo, the money which we found in the mouth of our bags we brought back unto thee from the land of Canaan, and how do we steal from the house of thy lord silver or gold?
field: 1044009
1
44
9
with whomsoever of thy servants it is found, he hath died, and we also are to my lord for servants.'
field: 1044010
1
44
10
And he saith, `Now, also, according to your words, so it `is'; he with whom it is found becometh my servant, and ye are acquitted;'
field: 1044011
1
44
11
and they hasten and take down each his bag to the earth, and each openeth his bag;
field: 1044012
1
44
12
and he searcheth -- at the eldest he hath begun, and at the youngest he hath completed -- and the cup is found in the bag of Benjamin;
field: 1044013
1
44
13
and they rend their garments, and each ladeth his ass, and they turn back to the city.
field: 1044014
1
44
14
And Judah -- his brethren also -- cometh in unto the house of Joseph, and he is yet there, and they fall before him to the earth;
field: 1044015
1
44
15
and Joseph saith to them, `What `is' this deed that ye have done? have ye not known that a man like me doth diligently observe?'
field: 1044016
1
44
16
And Judah saith, `What do we say to my lord? what do we speak? and what -- do we justify ourselves? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants; lo, we `are' servants to my lord, both we, and he in whose hand the cup hath been found;'
field: 1044017
1
44
17
and he saith, `Far be it from me to do this; the man in whose hand the cup hath been found, he becometh my servant; and ye, go ye up in peace unto your father.'
field: 1044018
1
44
18
And Judah cometh nigh unto him, and saith, `O, my lord, let thy servant speak, I pray thee, a word in the ears of my lord, and let not thine anger burn against thy servant -- for thou art as Pharaoh.
field: 1044019
1
44
19
My lord hath asked his servants, saying, Have ye a father or brother?
field: 1044020
1
44
20
and we say unto my lord, We have a father, an aged one, and a child of old age, a little one; and his brother died, and he is left alone of his mother, and his father hath loved him.

`And thou sayest unto thy servants, Bring him down unto me, and I set mine eye upon him;
field: 1044022

22
and we say unto my lord, The youth is not able to leave his father, when he hath left his father, then he hath died;
field: 1044023
1
44
23
and thou sayest unto thy servants, If your young brother come not down with you, ye add not to see my face.
field: 1044024
1
44
24
`And it cometh to pass, that we have come up unto thy servant my father, that we declare to him the words of my lord;

1
44
25
and our father saith, Turn back, buy for us a little food,
field: 1044026
1
44
26
and we say, We are not able to go down; if our young brother is with us, then we have gone down; for we are not able to see the man's face, and our young brother not with us.
field: 1044027
1
44
27
`And thy servant my father saith unto us, Ye -- ye have known that two did my wife bare to me,
field: 1044028
1
44
28
and the one goeth out from me, and I say, Surely he is torn -- torn! and I have not seen him since;
field: 1044029
1
44
29
when ye have taken also this from my presence, and mischief hath met him, then ye have brought down my grey hairs with evil to sheol.
field: 1044030
1
44
30
`And now, at my coming in unto thy servant my father, and the youth not with us (and his soul is bound up in his soul),
field: 1044031
1
44
31
then it hath come to pass when he seeth that the youth is not, that he hath died, and thy servants have brought down the grey hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to sheol;
field: 1044032
1
44
32
for thy servant obtained the youth by surety from my father, saying, If I bring him not in unto thee -- then I have sinned against my father all the days.
field: 1044033
1
44
33
`And now, let thy servant, I pray thee, abide instead of the youth a servant to my lord, and the youth goeth up with his brethren,

for how do I go up unto my father, and the youth not with me? lest I look on the evil which doth find my father.'

And Joseph hath not been able to refrain himself before all those standing by him, and he calleth, `Put out every man from me;' and no man hath stood with him when Joseph maketh himself known unto his brethren,
field: 1045002
1
45
2
and he giveth forth his voice in weeping, and the Egyptians hear, and the house of Pharaoh heareth.
field: 1045003
1
45
3
And Joseph saith unto his brethren, `I `am' Joseph, is my father yet alive?' and his brethren have not been able to answer him, for they have been troubled at his presence.
field: 1045004
1
45
4
And Joseph saith unto his brethren, `Come nigh unto me, I pray you,' and they come nigh; and he saith, `I `am' Joseph, your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt;
field: 1045005
1
45
5
and now, be not grieved, nor let it be displeasing in your eyes that ye sold me hither, for to preserve life hath God sent me before you.

`Because these two years the famine `is' in the heart of the land, and yet `are' five years, `in' which there is neither ploughing nor harvest;

1
45
7
and God sendeth me before you, to place of you a remnant in the land, and to give life to you by a great escape;
field: 1045008
1
45
8
and now, ye -- ye have not sent me hither, but God, and He doth set me for a father to Pharaoh, and for lord to all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
field: 1045009
1
45
9
`Haste, and go up unto my father, then ye have said to him, Thus said Joseph thy son, God hath set me for lord to all Egypt; come down unto me, stay not,

and thou hast dwelt in the land of Goshen, and been near unto me, thou and thy sons, and thy son's sons, and thy flock, and thy herd, and all that thou hast,

and I have nourished thee there -- for yet `are' five years of famine -- lest thou become poor, thou and thy household, and all that thou hast.

`And lo, your eyes are seeing, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that `it is' my mouth which is speaking unto you;

and ye have declared to my father all my honour in Egypt, and all that ye have seen, and ye have hasted, and have brought down my father hither.'
field: 1045014
1
45
14
And he falleth on the neck of Benjamin his brother, and weepeth, and Benjamin hath wept on his neck;
field: 1045015
1
45
15
and he kisseth all his brethren, and weepeth over them; and afterwards have his brethren spoken with him.

And the sound hath been heard in the house of Pharaoh, saying, `Come have the brethren of Joseph;' and it is good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants,
field: 1045017
1
45
17
and Pharaoh saith unto Joseph, `Say unto thy brethren, This do ye: lade your beasts, and go, enter ye the land of Canaan,
field: 1045018
1
45
18
and take your father, and your households, and come unto me, and I give to you the good of the land of Egypt, and eat ye the fat of the land.

1
45
19
`Yea, thou -- thou hast been commanded: this do ye, take for yourselves out of the land of Egypt, waggons for your infants, and for your wives, and ye have brought your father, and come;

20
and your eye hath no pity on your vessels, for the good of all the land of Egypt `is' yours.'
field: 1045021
1
45
21
And the sons of Israel do so, and Joseph giveth waggons to them by the command of Pharaoh, and he giveth to them provision for the way;
field: 1045022
1
45
22
to all of them hath he given -- to each changes of garments, and to Benjamin he hath given three hundred silverlings, and five changes of garments;
field: 1045023
1
45
23
and to his father he hath sent thus: ten asses bearing of the good things of Egypt, and ten she-asses bearing corn and bread, even food for his father for the way.
field: 1045024
1
45
24
And he sendeth his brethren away, and they go; and he saith unto them, `Be not angry in the way.'
field: 1045025
1
45
25
And they go up out of Egypt, and come in to the land of Canaan, unto Jacob their father,
field: 1045026
1
45
26
and they declare to him, saying, `Joseph `is' yet alive,' and that he `is' ruler over all the land of Egypt; and his heart ceaseth, for he hath not given credence to them.
field: 1045027
1
45
27
And they speak unto him all the words of Joseph, which he hath spoken unto them, and he seeth the waggons which Joseph hath sent to bear him away, and live doth the spirit of Jacob their father;
field: 1045028
1
45
28
and Israel saith, `Enough! Joseph my son `is' yet alive; I go and see him before I die.'
field: 1046001

And Israel journeyeth, and all that he hath, and cometh in to Beer-Sheba, and sacrificeth sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac;

and God speaketh to Israel in visions of the night, and saith, `Jacob, Jacob;' and he saith, `Here `am' I.'

And He saith, `I `am' God, God of thy father, be not afraid of going down to Egypt, for for a great nation I set thee there;

And Jacob riseth from Beer-Sheba, and the sons of Israel bear away Jacob their father, And their infants, and their wives, in the waggons which Pharaoh hath sent to bear him,

And Judah he hath sent before him unto Joseph, to direct before him to Goshen, and they come into the land of Goshen;

29
and Joseph harnesseth his chariot, and goeth up to meet Israel his father, to Goshen, and appeareth unto him, and falleth on his neck, and weepeth on his neck again;

46
30
and Israel saith unto Joseph, `Let me die this time, after my seeing thy face, for thou `art' yet alive.'
field: 1046031
1
46
31
And Joseph saith unto his brethren, and unto the house of his father, `I go up, and declare to Pharaoh, and say unto him, My brethren, and the house of my father who `are' in the land of Canaan have come in unto me;
field: 1046032
1
46
32
and the men `are' feeders of a flock, for they have been men of cattle; and their flock, and their herd, and all that they have, they have brought.'
field: 1046033
1
46
33
`And it hath come to pass when Pharaoh calleth for you, and hath said, What `are' your works?
field: 1046034
1
46
34
that ye have said, Thy servants have been men of cattle from our youth, even until now, both we and our fathers, -- in order that ye may dwell in the land of Goshen, for the abomination of the Egyptians is every one feeding a flock.'
field: 1047001
1
47
1
And Joseph cometh, and declareth to Pharaoh, and saith, `My father, and my brethren, and their flock, and their herd, and all they have, have come from the land of Canaan, and lo, they `are' in the land of Goshen.'
field: 1047002
1
47
2
And out of his brethren he hath taken five men, and setteth them before Pharaoh;
field: 1047003
1
47
3
and Pharaoh saith unto his brethren, `What `are' your works?' and they say unto Pharaoh, `Thy servants `are' feeders of a flock, both we and our fathers;'
field: 1047004
1
47
4
and they say unto Pharaoh, `To sojourn in the land we have come, for there is no pasture for the flock which thy servants have, for grievous `is' the famine in the land of Canaan; and now, let thy servants, we pray thee, dwell in the land of Goshen.'
field: 1047005
1
47
5
And Pharaoh speaketh unto Joseph, saying, `Thy father and thy brethren have come unto thee:
field: 1047006
1
47
6
the land of Egypt is before thee; in the best of the land cause thy father and thy brethren to dwell -- they dwell in the land of Goshen, and if thou hast known, and there are among them men of ability, then thou hast set them heads over the cattle I have.'
field: 1047007
1
47
7
And Joseph bringeth in Jacob his father, and causeth him to stand before Pharaoh; and Jacob blesseth Pharaoh.
field: 1047008
1
47
8
And Pharaoh saith unto Jacob, `How many `are' the days of the years of thy life?'
field: 1047009
1
47
9
And Jacob saith unto Pharaoh, `The days of the years of my sojournings `are' an hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not reached the days of the years of the life of my fathers, in the days of their sojournings.'
field: 1047010
1
47
10
And Jacob blesseth Pharaoh, and goeth out from before Pharaoh.
field: 1047011
1
47
11
And Joseph settleth his father and his brethren, and giveth to them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh commanded;
field: 1047012
1
47
12
and Joseph nourisheth his father, and his brethren, and all the house of his father `with' bread, according to the mouth of the infants.
field: 1047013
1
47
13
And there is no bread in all the land, for the famine `is' very grievous, and the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan are feeble because of the famine;
field: 1047014
1
47
14
and Joseph gathereth all the silver that is found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corn that they are buying, and Joseph bringeth the silver into the house of Pharaoh.
field: 1047015
1
47
15
And the silver is consumed out of the land of Egypt, and out of the land of Canaan, and all the Egyptians come in unto Joseph, saying, `Give to us bread -- why do we die before thee, though the money hath ceased?'
field: 1047016
1
47
16
and Joseph saith, `Give your cattle; and I give to you for your cattle, if the money hath ceased.'
field: 1047017
1
47
17
And they bring in their cattle unto Joseph, and Joseph giveth to them bread, for the horses, and for the cattle of the flock, and for the cattle of the herd, and for the asses; and he tendeth them with bread, for all their cattle, during that year.
field: 1047018
1
47
18
And that year is finished, and they come in unto him on the second year, and say to him, `We do not hide from my lord, that since the money hath been finished, and possession of the cattle `is' unto my lord, there hath not been left before my lord save our bodies, and our ground;
field: 1047019
1
47
19
why do we die before thine eyes, both we and our ground? buy us and our ground for bread, and we and our ground are servants to Pharaoh; and give seed, and we live, and die not, and the ground is not desolate.'
field: 1047020
1
47
20
And Joseph buyeth all the ground of Egypt for Pharaoh, for the Egyptians have sold each his field, for the famine hath been severe upon them, and the land becometh Pharaoh's;
field: 1047021
1
47
21
as to the people he hath removed them to cities from the `one' end of the border of Egypt even unto its `other' end.
field: 1047022
1
47
22
Only the ground of the priests he hath not bought, for the priests have a portion from Pharaoh, and they have eaten their portion which Pharaoh hath given to them, therefore they have not sold their ground.
field: 1047023
1
47
23
And Joseph saith unto the people, `Lo, I have bought you to-day and your ground for Pharaoh; lo, seed for you, and ye have sown the ground,
field: 1047024
1
47
24
and it hath come to pass in the increases, that ye have given a fifth to Pharaoh, and four of the parts are for yourselves, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for those who `are' in your houses, and for food for your infants.'
field: 1047025
1
47
25
And they say, `Thou hast revived us; we find grace in the eyes of my lord, and have been servants to Pharaoh;'
field: 1047026
1
47
26
and Joseph setteth it for a statute unto this day, concerning the ground of Egypt, `that' Pharaoh hath a fifth; only the ground of the priests alone hath not become Pharaoh's.
field: 1047027
1
47
27
And Israel dwelleth in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen, and they have possession in it, and are fruitful, and multiply exceedingly;
field: 1047028
1
47
28
and Jacob liveth in the land of Egypt seventeen years, and the days of Jacob, the years of his life, are an hundred and forty and seven years.
field: 1047029
1
47
29
And the days of Israel are near to die, and he calleth for his son, for Joseph, and saith to him, `If, I pray thee, I have found grace in thine eyes, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and thou hast done with me kindness and truth; bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt,
field: 1047030
1
47
30
and I have lain with my fathers, and thou hast borne me out of Egypt, and buried me in their burying-place.' And he saith, `I -- I do according to thy word;'
field: 1047031
1
47
31
and he saith, `Swear to me;' and he sweareth to him, and Israel boweth himself on the head of the bed.
field: 1048001
1
48
1
And it cometh to pass, after these things, that `one' saith to Joseph, `Lo, thy father is sick;' and he taketh his two sons with him, Manasseh and Ephraim.
field: 1048002
1
48
2
And `one' declareth to Jacob, and saith, `Lo, thy son Joseph is coming unto thee;' and Israel doth strengthen himself, and sit upon the bed.
field: 1048003
1
48
3
And Jacob saith unto Joseph, `God Almighty hath appeared unto me, in Luz, in the land of Canaan, and blesseth me,
field: 1048004
1
48
4
and saith unto me, Lo, I am making thee fruitful, and have multiplied thee, and given thee for an assembly of peoples, and given this land to thy seed after thee, a possession age-during.
field: 1048005
1
48
5
`And now, thy two sons, who are born to thee in the land of Egypt, before my coming unto thee to Egypt, mine they `are'; Ephraim and Manasseh, as Reuben and Simeon they are mine;

6
and thy family which thou hast begotten after them are thine; by the name of their brethren they are called in their inheritance.

`And I -- in my coming in from Padan-`Aram' Rachel hath died by me in the land of Canaan, in the way, while yet a kibrath of land to enter Ephrata, and I bury her there in the way of Ephrata, which `is' Bethlehem.'
field: 1048008
1
48
8
And Israel seeth the sons of Joseph, and saith, `Who `are' these?'
field: 1048009
1
48
9
and Joseph saith unto his father, `They `are' my sons, whom God hath given to me in this `place';' and he saith, `Bring them, I pray thee, unto me, and I bless them.'
field: 1048010
1
48
10
And the eyes of Israel have been heavy from age, he is unable to see; and he bringeth them nigh unto him, and he kisseth them, and cleaveth to them;
field: 1048011
1
48
11
and Israel saith unto Joseph, `To see thy face I had not thought, and lo, God hath shewed me also thy seed.'
field: 1048012
1
48
12
And Joseph bringeth them out from between his knees, and boweth himself on his face to the earth;
field: 1048013
1
48
13
and Joseph taketh them both, Ephraim in his right hand towards Israel's left, and Manasseh in his left towards Israel's right, and bringeth `them' nigh to him.
field: 1048014
1
48
14
And Israel putteth out his right hand, and placeth `it' upon the head of Ephraim, who `is' the younger, and his left hand upon the head of Manasseh; he hath guided his hands wisely, for Manasseh `is' the first-born.
field: 1048015
1
48
15
And he blesseth Joseph, and saith, `God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked habitually: God who is feeding me from my being unto this day:
field: 1048016
1
48
16
the Messenger who is redeeming me from all evil doth bless the youths, and my name is called upon them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and they increase into a multitude in the midst of the land.'
field: 1048017
1
48
17
And Joseph seeth that his father setteth his right hand on the head of Ephraim, and it is wrong in his eyes, and he supporteth the hand of his father to turn it aside from off the head of Ephraim to the head of Manasseh;
field: 1048018
1
48
18
and Joseph saith unto his father, `Not so, my father, for this `is' the first-born; set thy right hand on his head.'
field: 1048019
1
48
19
And his father refuseth, and saith, `I have known, my son, I have known; he also becometh a people, and he also is great, and yet, his young brother is greater than he, and his seed is the fulness of the nations;'
field: 1048020
1
48
20
and he blesseth them in that day, saying, `By thee doth Israel bless, saying, God set thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh;' and he setteth Ephraim before Manasseh.
field: 1048021
1
48
21
And Israel saith unto Joseph, `Lo, I am dying, and God hath been with you, and hath brought you back unto the land of your fathers;

And Joseph goeth up to bury his father, and go up with him do all the servants of Pharaoh, elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,

and all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and the house of his father; only their infants, and their flock, and their herd, have they left in the land of Goshen;

and there go up with him both chariot and horsemen, and the camp is very great.
field: 1050010

And they come unto the threshing-floor of Atad, which `is' beyond the Jordan, and they lament there, a lamentation great and very grievous; and he maketh for his father a mourning seven days,

1
50
11
and the inhabitant of the land, the Canaanite, see the mourning in the threshing-floor of Atad, and say, `A grievous mourning `is' this to the Egyptians;' therefore hath `one' called its name `The mourning of the Egyptians,' which `is' beyond the Jordan.

And his sons do to him so as he commanded them,

And Joseph turneth back to Egypt, he and his brethren, and all who are going up with him to bury his father, after his burying his father.

And the brethren of Joseph see that their father is dead, and say, `Peradventure Joseph doth hate us, and doth certainly return to us all the evil which we did with him.'
field: 1050016
1
50
16
And they give a charge for Joseph, saying, `Thy father commanded before his death, saying,

17
Thus ye do say to Joseph, I pray thee, bear, I pray thee, with the transgression of thy brethren, and their sin, for they have done thee evil; and now, bear, we pray thee, with the transgression of the servants of the God of thy father;' and Joseph weepeth in their speaking unto him.

And his brethren also go and fall before him, and say, `Lo, we `are' to thee for servants.'

And Joseph saith unto them, `Fear not, for `am' I in the place of God?

As for you, ye devised against me evil -- God devised it for good, in order to do as `at' this day, to keep alive a numerous people;

and now, fear not: I do nourish you and your infants;' and he comforteth them, and speaketh unto their heart.

And Joseph dwelleth in Egypt, he and the house of his father, and Joseph liveth a hundred and ten years,

and Joseph looketh on Ephraim's sons of the third `generation'; sons also of Machir, son of Manasseh, have been born on the knees of Joseph.

And Joseph saith unto his brethren, `I am dying, and God doth certainly inspect you, and hath caused you to go up from this land, unto the land which He hath sworn to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.'

1
50

And Joseph causeth the sons of Israel to swear, saying, `God doth certainly inspect you, and ye have brought up my bones from this `place'.'

And Joseph dieth, a son of an hundred and ten years, and they embalm him, and he is put into a coffin in Egypt.

And these `are' the names of the sons of Israel who are coming into Egypt with Jacob; a man and his household have they come;

Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.

And all the persons coming out of the thigh of Jacob are seventy persons; as to Joseph, he was in Egypt.
field: 2001006

And Joseph dieth, and all his brethren, and all that generation;
field: 2001007
2

7
and the sons of Israel have been fruitful, and they teem, and multiply, and are very very mighty, and the land is filled with them.
field: 2001008
2

8
And there riseth a new king over Egypt, who hath not known Joseph,
field: 2001009
2

9
and he saith unto his people, `Lo, the people of the sons of Israel `is' more numerous and mighty than we;
field: 2001010
2
1
10
give help! let us act wisely concerning it, lest it multiply, and it hath come to pass, when war happeneth, that it hath been joined, even it, unto those hating us, and hath fought against us, and hath gone out up of the land.'
field: 2001011

11
And they set over it princes of tribute, so as to afflict it with their burdens, and it buildeth store-cities for Pharaoh, Pithom and Raamses;
field: 2001012
2
1
12
and as they afflict it, so it multiplieth, and so it breaketh forth, and they are vexed because of the sons of Israel;
field: 2001013
2
1
13
and the Egyptians cause the sons of Israel to serve with rigour,
field: 2001014
2
1
14
and make their lives bitter in hard service, in clay, and in brick, and in every `kind' of service in the field; all their service in which they have served `is' with rigour.
field: 2001015

15
And the king of Egypt speaketh to the midwives, the Hebrewesses, (of whom the name of the one `is' Shiphrah, and the name of the second Puah),
field: 2001016
2
1
16
and saith, `When ye cause the Hebrew women to bear, and have looked on the children; if it `is' a son -- then ye have put him to death; and if it `is' a daughter -- then she hath lived.'
field: 2001017
2
1
17
And the midwives fear God, and have not done as the king of Egypt hath spoken unto them, and keep the lads alive;
field: 2001018
2
1
18
and the king of Egypt calleth for the midwives, and saith to them, `Wherefore have ye done this thing, and keep the lads alive?'
field: 2001019
2
1
19
And the midwives say unto Pharaoh, `Because the Hebrew women `are' not as the Egyptian women, for they `are' lively; before the midwife cometh in unto them -- they have borne!'
field: 2001020
2
1
20
And God doth good to the midwives, and the people multiply, and are very mighty;
field: 2001021
2

21
and it cometh to pass, because the midwives have feared God, that He maketh for them households;
field: 2001022
2
1
22
and Pharaoh layeth a charge on all his people, saying, `Every son who is born -- into the River ye do cast him, and every daughter ye do keep alive.'
field: 2002001
2
2
1
And there goeth a man of the house of Levi, and he taketh the daughter of Levi,
field: 2002002
2
2
2
and the woman conceiveth, and beareth a son, and she seeth him that he `is' fair, and she hideth him three months,
field: 2002003
2
2
3
and she hath not been able any more to hide him, and she taketh for him an ark of rushes, and daubeth it with bitumen and with pitch, and putteth the lad in it, and putteth `it' in the weeds by the edge of the River;
field: 2002004
2
2
4
and his sister stationeth herself afar off, to know what is done to him.
field: 2002005
2

And a daughter of Pharaoh cometh down to bathe at the River, and her damsels are walking by the side of the River, and she seeth the ark in the midst of the weeds, and sendeth her handmaid, and she taketh it,
field: 2002006
2
2
6
and openeth, and seeth him -- the lad, and lo, a child weeping! and she hath pity on him, and saith, `This is `one' of the Hebrews' children.'
field: 2002007
2
2
7
And his sister saith unto the daughter of Pharaoh, `Do I go? when I have called for thee a suckling woman of the Hebrews, then she doth suckle the lad for thee;'
field: 2002008
2
2
8
and the daughter of Pharaoh saith to her, `Go;' and the virgin goeth, and calleth the mother of the lad,
field: 2002009
2
2
9
and the daughter of Pharaoh saith to her, `Take this lad away, and suckle him for me, and I -- I give thy hire;' and the woman taketh the lad, and suckleth him.
field: 2002010
2
2
10
And the lad groweth, and she bringeth him in to the daughter of Pharaoh, and he is to her for a son, and she calleth his name Moses, and saith, `Because -- from the water I have drawn him.'
field: 2002011
2
2
11
And it cometh to pass, in those days, that Moses is grown, and he goeth out unto his brethren, and looketh on their burdens, and seeth a man, an Egyptian, smiting a man, a Hebrew, `one' of his brethren,
field: 2002012
2
2
12
and he turneth hither and thither, and seeth that there is no man, and smiteth the Egyptian, and hideth him in the sand.
field: 2002013
2
2
13
And he goeth out on the second day, and lo, two men, Hebrews, striving! and he saith to the wrong-doer, `Why dost thou smite thy neighbour?'
field: 2002014
2
2
14
and he saith, `Who set thee for a head and a judge over us? to slay me art thou saying `it', as thou hast slain the Egyptian?' and Moses feareth, and saith, `Surely the thing hath been known.'
field: 2002015
2
2
15
And Pharaoh heareth of this thing, and seeketh to slay Moses, and Moses fleeth from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelleth in the land of Midian, and dwelleth by the well.
field: 2002016
2
2
16
And to a priest of Midian `are' seven daughters, and they come and draw, and fill the troughs, to water the flock of their father,
field: 2002017
2
2
17
and the shepherds come and drive them away, and Moses ariseth, and saveth them, and watereth their flock.
field: 2002018
2
2
18
And they come in to Reuel their father, and he saith, `Wherefore have ye hastened to come in to-day?'
field: 2002019
2
2
19
and they say, `A man, an Egyptian, hath delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and also hath diligently drawn for us, and watereth the flock;'
field: 2002020
2
2
20
and he saith unto his daughters, `And where `is' he? why `is' this? -- ye left the man! call for him, and he doth eat bread.'
field: 2002021
2
2
21
And Moses is willing to dwell with the man, and he giveth Zipporah his daughter to Moses,
field: 2002022
2
2
22
and she beareth a son, and he calleth his name Gershom, for he said, `A sojourner I have been in a strange land.'
field: 2002023
2
2
23
And it cometh to pass during these many days, that the king of Egypt dieth, and the sons of Israel sigh because of the service, and cry, and their cry goeth up unto God, because of the service;
field: 2002024
2
2
24
and God heareth their groaning, and God remembereth His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob;

2
2
25
and God seeth the sons of Israel, and God knoweth.
field: 2003001

And Moses hath been feeding the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, priest of Midian, and he leadeth the flock behind the wilderness, and cometh in unto the mount of God, to Horeb;
field: 2003002
2
3
2
and there appeareth unto him a messenger of Jehovah in a flame of fire, out of the midst of the bush, and he seeth, and lo, the bush is burning with fire, and the bush is not consumed.
field: 2003003
2
3
3
And Moses saith, `Let me turn aside, I pray thee, and I see this great appearance; wherefore is the bush not burned?'
field: 2003004
2
3
4
and Jehovah seeth that he hath turned aside to see, and God calleth unto him out of the midst of the bush, and saith, `Moses, Moses;' and he saith, `Here `am' I.'
field: 2003005
2
3
5
And He saith, `Come not near hither: cast thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place on which thou art standing is holy ground.'
field: 2003006
2
3
6
He saith also, `I `am' the God of thy father, God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Jacob;' and Moses hideth his face, for he is afraid to look towards God.
field: 2003007
2
3
7
And Jehovah saith, `I have certainly seen the affliction of My people who `are' in Egypt, and their cry I have heard, because of its exactors, for I have known its pains;
field: 2003008
2
3
8
and I go down to deliver it out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to cause it to go up out of the land, unto a land good and broad, unto a land flowing with milk and honey -- unto the place of the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

`And now, lo, the cry of the sons of Israel hath come in unto Me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians are oppressing them,

10
and now, come, and I send thee unto Pharaoh, and bring thou out My people, the sons of Israel, out of Egypt.'

And Moses saith unto God, `Who `am' I, that I go unto Pharaoh, and that I bring out the sons of Israel from Egypt?'

12
and He saith, `Because I am with thee, and this `is' to thee the sign that I have sent thee: in thy bringing out the people from Egypt -- ye do serve God on this mount.'

2
3
13
And Moses saith unto God, `Lo, I am coming unto the sons of Israel, and have said to them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you, and they have said to me, What `is' His name? what do I say unto them?'
field: 2003014

And God saith unto Moses, `I AM THAT WHICH I AM;' He saith also, `Thus dost thou say to the sons of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.'

15
And God saith again unto Moses, `Thus dost thou say unto the sons of Israel, Jehovah, God of your fathers, God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you; this `is' My name -- to the age, and this My memorial, to generation -- generation.

`Go, and thou hast gathered the elders of Israel, and hast said unto them: Jehovah, God of your fathers, hath appeareth unto me, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, I have certainly inspected you, and that which is done to you in Egypt;

17
and I say, I bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt, unto the land of the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, unto a land flowing `with' milk and honey.

`And they have hearkened to thy voice, and thou hast entered, thou and the elders of Israel, unto the king of Egypt, and ye have said unto him, Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, hath met with us; and now, let us go, we pray thee, a journey of three days into the wilderness, and we sacrifice to Jehovah our God.

And Jehovah saith unto him, `What `is' this in thy hand?' and he saith, `A rod;'

And Jehovah saith to him again, `Put in, I pray thee, thy hand into thy bosom;' and he putteth in his hand into his bosom, and he bringeth it out, and lo, his hand `is' leprous as snow;

7
and He saith, `Put back thy hand unto thy bosom;' and he putteth back his hand unto his bosom, and he bringeth it out from his bosom, and lo, it hath turned back as his flesh --

`And it hath come to pass, if they do not give credence even to these two signs, nor hearken to thy voice, that thou hast taken of the waters of the River, and hast poured on the dry land, and the waters which thou takest from the River have been, yea, they have become -- blood on the dry land.'
field: 2004010

10
And Moses saith unto Jehovah, `O, my Lord, I `am' not a man of words, either yesterday, or before, or since Thy speaking unto Thy servant, for I `am' slow of mouth, and slow of tongue.'
field: 2004011
2
4
11
And Jehovah saith unto him, `Who appointed a mouth for man? or who appointeth the dumb, or deaf, or open, or blind? is it not I, Jehovah?
field: 2004012
2
4
12
and now, go, and I -- I am with thy mouth, and have directed thee that which thou speakest;'
field: 2004013
2
4
13
and he saith, `O, my Lord, send, I pray thee, by the hand Thou dost send.'
field: 2004014
2

14
And the anger of Jehovah burneth against Moses, and He saith, `Is not Aaron the Levite thy brother? I have known that he speaketh well, and also, lo, he is coming out to meet thee; when he hath seen thee, then he hath rejoiced in his heart,
field: 2004015
2

15
and thou hast spoken unto him, and hast set the words in his mouth, and I -- I am with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and have directed you that which ye do;
field: 2004016
2
4
16
and he, he hath spoken for thee unto the people, and it hath come to pass, he -- he is to thee for a mouth, and thou -- thou art to him for God;
field: 2004017
2
4
17
and this rod thou dost take in thy hand, with which thou doest the signs.'
field: 2004018
2
4
18
And Moses goeth and turneth back unto Jethro his father-in-law, and saith to him, `Let me go, I pray thee, and I turn back unto my brethren who `are' in Egypt, and I see whether they are yet alive.' And Jethro saith to Moses, `Go in peace.'
field: 2004019
2

19
And Jehovah saith unto Moses in Midian, `Go, turn back to Egypt, for all the men have died who seek thy life;'
field: 2004020
2
4
20
and Moses taketh his wife, and his sons, and causeth them to ride on the ass, and turneth back to the land of Egypt, and Moses taketh the rod of God in his hand.
field: 2004021
2
4
21
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `In thy going to turn back to Egypt, see -- all the wonders which I have put in thy hand -- that thou hast done them before Pharaoh, and I -- I strengthen his heart, and he doth not send the people away;
field: 2004022
2

22
and thou hast said unto Pharaoh, Thus said Jehovah, My son, My first-born `is' Israel,
field: 2004023
2
4
23
and I say unto thee, Send away My son, and he doth serve Me; and -- thou dost refuse to send him away -- lo, I am slaying thy son, thy first-born.'
field: 2004024
2
4
24
And it cometh to pass in the way, in a lodging place, that Jehovah meeteth him, and seeketh to put him to death;
field: 2004025
2
4
25
and Zipporah taketh a flint, and cutteth off the foreskin of her son, and causeth `it' to touch his feet, and saith, `Surely a bridegroom of blood `art' thou to me;'
field: 2004026
2
4
26
and He desisteth from him: then she said, `A bridegroom of blood,' in reference to the circumcision.
field: 2004027

27
And Jehovah saith unto Aaron, `Go to meet Moses into the wilderness;' and he goeth, and meeteth him in the mount of God, and kisseth him,
field: 2004028
2
4
28
and Moses declareth to Aaron all the words of Jehovah with which He hath sent him, and all the signs with which He hath charged him.
field: 2004029
2
4
29
And Moses goeth -- Aaron also -- and they gather all the elders of the sons of Israel,
field: 2004030
2
4
30
and Aaron speaketh all the words which Jehovah hath spoken unto Moses, and doth the signs before the eyes of the people;
field: 2004031
2
4
31
and the people believe when they hear that Jehovah hath looked after the sons of Israel, and that He hath seen their affliction; and they bow and do obeisance.
field: 2005001
2

And afterwards have Moses and Aaron entered, and they say unto Pharaoh, `Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Send My people away, and they keep a feast to Me in the wilderness;'
field: 2005002
2
5
2
and Pharaoh saith, `Who `is' Jehovah, that I hearken to His voice, to send Israel away? I have not known Jehovah, and Israel also I do not send away.'
field: 2005003
2
5
3
And they say, `The God of the Hebrews hath met with us, let us go, we pray thee, a journey of three days into the wilderness, and we sacrifice to Jehovah our God, lest He meet us with pestilence or with sword.'
field: 2005004
2
5
4
And the king of Egypt saith unto them, `Why, Moses and Aaron, do ye free the people from its works? go to your burdens.'
field: 2005005
2
5
5
Pharaoh also saith, `Lo, numerous now `is' the people of the land, and ye have caused them to cease from their burdens!'
field: 2005006
2
5
6
And Pharaoh commandeth, on that day, the exactors among the people and its authorities, saying,
field: 2005007
2
5
7
`Ye do not add to give straw to the people for the making of the bricks, as heretofore -- they go and have gathered straw for themselves;
field: 2005008
2
5
8
and the proper quantity of the bricks which they are making heretofore ye do put on them, ye do not diminish from it, for they are remiss, therefore they are crying, saying, Let us go, let us sacrifice to our God;
field: 2005009
2
5
9
let the service be heavy on the men, and let them work at it, and not be dazzled by lying words.'
field: 2005010
2
5
10
And the exactors of the people, and its authorities, go out, and speak unto the people, saying, `Thus said Pharaoh, I do not give you straw,
field: 2005011
2
5
11
ye -- go ye, take for yourselves straw where ye find `it', for there is nothing of your service diminished.'
field: 2005012
2
5
12
And the people is scattered over all the land of Egypt, to gather stubble for straw,
field: 2005013
2
5
13
and the exactors are making haste, saying, `Complete your works, the matter of a day in its day, as when there is straw.'
field: 2005014
2
5
14
And the authorities of the sons of Israel, whom the exactors of Pharaoh have placed over them, are beaten, saying, `Wherefore have ye not completed your portion in making brick as heretofore, both yesterday and to-day?'
field: 2005015
2
5
15
And the authorities of the sons of Israel come in and cry unto Pharaoh, saying, `Why dost thou thus to thy servants?
field: 2005016
2
5
16
Straw is not given to thy servants, and they are saying to us, Make bricks, and lo, thy servants are smitten -- and thy people hath sinned.'
field: 2005017
2
5
17
And he saith, `Remiss -- ye are remiss, therefore ye are saying, Let us go, let us sacrifice to Jehovah;
field: 2005018
2
5
18
and now, go, serve; and straw is not given to you, and the measure of bricks ye do give.'
field: 2005019
2
5
19
And the authorities of the sons of Israel see them in affliction, saying, `Ye do not diminish from your bricks; the matter of a day in its day.'
field: 2005020
2
5
20
And they meet Moses and Aaron standing to meet them, in their coming out from Pharaoh,
field: 2005021
2
5
21
and say unto them, `Jehovah look upon you, and judge, because ye have caused our fragrance to stink in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants -- to give a sword into their hand to slay us.'
field: 2005022
2
5
22
And Moses turneth back unto Jehovah, and saith, `Lord, why hast Thou done evil to this people? why `is' this? -- Thou hast sent me!
field: 2005023
2
5
23
and since I have come unto Pharaoh, to speak in Thy name, he hath done evil to this people, and Thou hast not at all delivered Thy people.'
field: 2006001
2

1
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Now dost thou see that which I do to Pharaoh, for with a strong hand he doth send them away, yea, with a strong hand he doth cast them out of his land.'
field: 2006002
2
6
2
And God speaketh unto Moses, and saith unto him, `I `am' Jehovah,
field: 2006003
2
6
3
and I appear unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as God Almighty; as to My name Jehovah, I have not been known to them;
field: 2006004
2
6
4
and also I have established My covenant with them, to give to them the land of Canaan, the land of their sojournings, wherein they have sojourned;
field: 2006005
2
6
5
and also I have heard the groaning of the sons of Israel, whom the Egyptians are causing to serve, and I remember My covenant.
field: 2006006
2
6
6
`Therefore say to the sons of Israel, I `am' Jehovah, and I have brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and have delivered you from their service, and have redeemed you by a stretched-out arm, and by great judgments,
field: 2006007
2

7
and have taken you to Me for a people, and I have been to you for God, and ye have known that I `am' Jehovah your God, who is bringing you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians;

and I have brought you in unto the land which I have lifted up My hand to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, and have given it to you -- a possession; I `am' Jehovah.'
field: 2006009
2

9
And Moses speaketh so unto the sons of Israel, and they hearkened not unto Moses, for anguish of spirit, and for harsh service.
field: 2006010
2
6
10
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

6
11
`Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he doth send the sons of Israel out of his land;

field: 2006013
2

13
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and chargeth them for the sons of Israel, and for Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring out the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt.

these are they who are speaking unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring out the sons of Israel from Egypt, this `is' Moses -- and Aaron.

that Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying, `I `am' Jehovah, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I am speaking unto thee.'

And Moses saith before Jehovah, `Lo, I `am' of uncircumcised lips, and how doth Pharaoh hearken unto me?'

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `See, I have given thee a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron thy brother is thy prophet;

`And I harden the heart of Pharaoh, and have multiplied My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt,

and the Egyptians have known that I `am' Jehovah, in My stretching out My hand against Egypt; and I have brought out the sons of Israel from their midst.'

And Moses doth -- Aaron also -- as Jehovah commanded them; so have they done;

and Moses `is' a son of eighty years, and Aaron `is' a son of eighty and three years, in their speaking unto Pharaoh.

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

`When Pharaoh speaketh unto you, saying, Give for yourselves a wonder; then thou hast said unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast before Pharaoh -- it becometh a monster.'

10
And Moses goeth in -- Aaron also -- unto Pharaoh, and they do so as Jehovah hath commanded; and Aaron casteth his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it becometh a monster.
field: 2007011

7
11
And Pharaoh also calleth for wise men, and for sorcerers; and the scribes of Egypt, they also, with their flashings, do so,

12
and they cast down each his rod, and they become monsters, and the rod of Aaron swalloweth their rods;

and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken.
field: 2007014
2

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `The heart of Pharaoh hath been hard, he hath refused to send the people away;

15
go unto Pharaoh in the morning, lo, he is going out to the water, and thou hast stood to meet him by the edge of the River, and the rod which was turned to a serpent thou dost take in thy hand,

`Thus said Jehovah: By this thou knowest that I `am' Jehovah; lo, I am smiting with the rod which `is' in my hand, on the waters which `are' in the River, and they have been turned to blood,

and the fish that `are' in the River die, and the River hath stank, and the Egyptians have been wearied of drinking waters from the River.'
field: 2007019
2

19
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thy hand against the waters of Egypt, against their streams, against their rivers, and against their ponds, and against all their collections of waters; and they are blood -- and there hath been blood in all the land of Egypt, both in `vessels of' wood, and in `those of' stone.'
field: 2007020

And Moses and Aaron do so, as Jehovah hath commanded, and he lifteth up `his hand' with the rod, and smiteth the waters which `are' in the River, before the eyes of Pharaoh, and before the eyes of his servants, and all the waters which `are' in the River are turned to blood,

2
7
21
and the fish which `is' in the River hath died, and the River stinketh, and the Egyptians have not been able to drink water from the River; and the blood is in all the land of Egypt.
field: 2007022
2
7
22
And the scribes of Egypt do so with their flashings, and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken,
field: 2007023
2
7
23
and Pharaoh turneth and goeth in unto his house, and hath not set his heart even to this;

24
and all the Egyptians seek water round about the river to drink, for they have not been able to drink of the waters of the River.

2

25
And seven days are completed after Jehovah's smiting the River,
field: 2008001
2

1
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Go in unto Pharaoh: and thou hast said unto him, Thus said Jehovah, Send My people away, and they serve Me;

2
8
2
and if thou art refusing to send away, lo, I am smiting all thy border with frogs;

3
and the River hath teemed `with' frogs, and they have gone up and gone into thy house, and into the inner-chamber of thy bed, and on thy couch, and into the house of thy servants, and among thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneading-troughs;

2
8
4
yea, on thee, and on thy people, and on all thy servants do the frogs go up.'
field: 2008005
2
8
5
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy hand, with thy rod, against the streams, against the rivers, and against the ponds, and cause the frogs to come up against the land of Egypt.'
field: 2008006
2
8
6
And Aaron stretcheth out his hand against the waters of Egypt, and the frog cometh up, and covereth the land of Egypt;
field: 2008007
2
8
7
and the scribes do so with their flashings, and cause the frogs to come up against the land of Egypt.
field: 2008008
2
8
8
And Pharaoh calleth for Moses and for Aaron, and saith, `Make supplication unto Jehovah, that he turn aside the frogs from me, and from my people, and I send the people away, and they sacrifice to Jehovah.'
field: 2008009
2
8
9
And Moses saith to Pharaoh, `Beautify thyself over me; when do I make supplication for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, to cut off the frogs from thee and from thy houses -- only in the River they do remain?'
field: 2008010
2
8
10
and he saith, `To-morrow.' And he saith, According to thy word `it is', so that thou knowest that there is none like Jehovah our God,
field: 2008011
2
8
11
and the frogs have turned aside from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people; only in the River they do remain.'
field: 2008012
2
8
12
And Moses -- Aaron also -- goeth out from Pharaoh, and Moses crieth unto Jehovah, concerning the matter of the frogs which He hath set on Pharaoh;
field: 2008013
2
8
13
and Jehovah doth according to the word of Moses, and the frogs die out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields,
field: 2008014
2
8
14
and they heap them up together, and the land stinketh.
field: 2008015
2
8
15
And Pharaoh seeth that there hath been a respite, and he hath hardened his heart, and hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken.
field: 2008016
2
8
16
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the land, and it hath become gnats in all the land of Egypt.'
field: 2008017
2
8
17
And they do so, and Aaron stretcheth out his hand with his rod, and smiteth the dust of the land, and the gnats are on man and on beast; all the dust of the land hath been gnats in all the land of Egypt.
field: 2008018
2
8
18
And the scribes do so with their flashings, to bring out the gnats, and they have not been able, and the gnats are on man and on beast;
field: 2008019
2
8
19
and the scribes say unto Pharaoh, `It `is' the finger of God;' and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken.
field: 2008020
2
8
20
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Rise early in the morning, and station thyself before Pharaoh, lo, he is going out to the waters, and thou hast said unto him, Thus said Jehovah, Send My people away, and they serve Me;
field: 2008021
2
8
21
for, if thou art not sending My people away, lo, I am sending against thee, and against thy servants, and against thy people, and against thy houses, the beetle, and the houses of the Egyptians have been full of the beetle, and also the ground on which they are.
field: 2008022
2
8
22
`And I have separated in that day the land of Goshen, in which My people are staying, that the beetle is not there, so that thou knowest that I `am' Jehovah in the midst of the land,

23
and I have put a division between My people and thy people: to-morrow is this sign.'
field: 2008024

And Jehovah doth so, and the grievous beetle entereth the house of Pharaoh, and the house of his servants, and in all the land of Egypt the land is corrupted from the presence of the beetle.
field: 2008025

8
25
And Pharaoh calleth unto Moses and to Aaron, and saith, `Go, sacrifice to your God in the land;'
field: 2008026

26
and Moses saith, `Not right to do so, for the abomination of the Egyptians we do sacrifice to Jehovah our God; lo, we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes -- and they do not stone us!

27
A journey of three days we go into the wilderness, and have sacrificed to Jehovah our God, as He saith unto us.'

And Pharaoh saith, `I send you away, and ye have sacrificed to Jehovah your God in the wilderness, only go not very far off; make ye supplication for me;'
field: 2008029
2
8
29
and Moses saith, `Lo, I am going out from thee, and have made supplication unto Jehovah, and the beetle hath turned aside from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people -- to-morrow, only let not Pharaoh add to deceive -- in not sending the people away to sacrifice to Jehovah.'
field: 2008030
2
8
30
And Moses goeth out from Pharaoh, and maketh supplication unto Jehovah,
field: 2008031
2
8
31
and Jehovah doth according to the word of Moses, and turneth aside the beetle from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people -- there hath not been left one;
field: 2008032
2
8
32
and Pharaoh hardeneth his heart also at this time, and hath not sent the people away.
field: 2009001
2

1
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Go in unto Pharaoh, and thou hast spoken unto him, Thus said Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, Send My people away, and they serve me,
field: 2009002
2
9
2
for, if thou art refusing to send away, and art still keeping hold upon them,
field: 2009003
2
9
3
lo, the hand of Jehovah is on thy cattle which `are' in the field, on horses, on asses, on camels, on herd, and on flock -- a pestilence very grievous.
field: 2009004
2
9
4
`And Jehovah hath separated between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt, and there doth not die a thing of all the sons of Israel's;
field: 2009005
2
9
5
and Jehovah setteth an appointed time, saying, To-morrow doth Jehovah do this thing in the land.'
field: 2009006
2
9
6
And Jehovah doth this thing on the morrow, and all the cattle of Egypt die, and of the cattle of the sons of Israel not one hath died;
field: 2009007
2
9
7
and Pharaoh sendeth, and lo, not even one of the cattle of Israel hath died, and the heart of Pharaoh is hard, and he hath not sent the people away.
field: 2009008
2
9
8
And Jehovah saith unto Moses and unto Aaron, `Take to you the fulness of your hands `of' soot of a furnace, and Moses hath sprinkled it towards the heavens, before the eyes of Pharaoh,
field: 2009009
2
9
9
and it hath become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and it hath become on man and on cattle a boil breaking forth `with' blains, in all the land of Egypt.'
field: 2009010
2
9
10
And they take the soot of the furnace, and stand before Pharaoh, and Moses sprinkleth it towards the heavens, and it is a boil `with' blains, breaking forth, on man and on beast;
field: 2009011
2
9
11
and the scribes have not been able to stand before Moses, because of the boil, for the boil hath been on the scribes, and on all the Egyptians.
field: 2009012
2
9
12
And Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken unto Moses.
field: 2009013
2
9
13
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Rise early in the morning, and station thyself before Pharaoh, and thou hast said unto him, Thus said Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, Send My people away, and they serve Me,
field: 2009014
2
9
14
for, at this time I am sending all My plagues unto thy heart, and on thy servants, and on thy people, so that thou knowest that there is none like Me in all the earth,
field: 2009015
2
9
15
for now I have put forth My hand, and I smite thee, and thy people, with pestilence, and thou art hidden from the earth.
field: 2009016
2
9
16
`And yet for this I have caused thee to stand, so as to show thee My power, and for the sake of declaring My Name in all the earth;
field: 2009017
2
9
17
still thou art exalting thyself against My people -- so as not to send them away;
field: 2009018
2
9
18
lo, I am raining about `this' time to-morrow hail very grievous, such as hath not been in Egypt, even from the day of its being founded, even until now.
field: 2009019
2
9
19
`And, now, send, strengthen thy cattle and all that thou hast in the field; every man and beast which is found in the field, and is not gathered into the house -- come down on them hath the hail, and they have died.'
field: 2009020
2
9
20
He who is fearing the word of Jehovah among the servants of Pharaoh hath caused his servants and his cattle to flee unto the houses;
field: 2009021
2
9
21
and he who hath not set his heart unto the word of Jehovah leaveth his servants and his cattle in the field.
field: 2009022
2
9
22
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Stretch forth thy hand towards the heavens, and there is hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on beast, and on every herb of the field in the land of Egypt.'
field: 2009023
2
9
23
And Moses stretcheth out his rod towards the heavens, and Jehovah hath given voices and hail, and fire goeth towards the earth, and Jehovah raineth hail on the land of Egypt,
field: 2009024
2
9
24
and there is hail, and fire catching itself in the midst of the hail, very grievous, such as hath not been in all the land of Egypt since it hath become a nation.
field: 2009025
2
9
25
And the hail smiteth in all the land of Egypt all that `is' in the field, from man even unto beast, and every herb of the field hath the hail smitten, and every tree of the field it hath broken;
field: 2009026
2
9
26
only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel `are', there hath been no hail.
field: 2009027
2
9
27
And Pharaoh sendeth, and calleth for Moses and for Aaron, and saith unto them, `I have sinned this time, Jehovah `is' the Righteous, and I and my people `are' the Wicked,
field: 2009028
2
9
28
make ye supplication unto Jehovah, and plead that there be no voices of God and hail, and I send you away, and ye add not to remain.'
field: 2009029
2
9
29
And Moses saith unto him, `At my going out of the city, I spread my palms unto Jehovah -- the voices cease, and the hail is not any more, so that thou knowest that the earth `is' Jehovah's;
field: 2009030
2
9
30
but thou and thy servants -- I have known that ye are not yet afraid of the face of Jehovah God.'
field: 2009031
2
9
31
And the flax and the barley have been smitten, for the barley `is' budding, and the flax forming flowers,
field: 2009032
2
9
32
and the wheat and the rye have not been smitten, for they are late.
field: 2009033
2
9
33
And Moses goeth out from Pharaoh, `from' the city, and spreadeth his hands unto Jehovah, and the voices and the hail cease, and rain hath not been poured out to the earth;
field: 2009034
2
9
34
and Pharaoh seeth that the rain hath ceased, and the hail and the voices, and he continueth to sin, and hardeneth his heart, he and his servants;
field: 2009035
2
9
35
and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not sent the sons of Israel away, as Jehovah hath spoken by the hand of Moses.
field: 2010001
2
10
1
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Go in unto Pharaoh, for I have declared hard his heart, and the heart of his servants, so that I set these My signs in their midst,
field: 2010002
2
10
2
and so that thou recountest in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, that which I have done in Egypt, and My signs which I have set among them, and ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.'
field: 2010003
2
10
3
And Moses cometh in -- Aaron also -- unto Pharaoh, and they say unto him, `Thus said Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, Until when hast thou refused to be humbled at My presence? send My people away, and they serve Me,
field: 2010004
2
10
4
for if thou art refusing to send My people away, lo, I am bringing in to-morrow the locust into thy border,
field: 2010005
2
10
5
and it hath covered the eye of the land, and none is able to see the land, and it hath eaten the remnant of that which is escaped, which is left to you from the hail, and it hath eaten every tree which is springing for you out of the field;
field: 2010006
2
10
6
and they have filled thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, which neither thy fathers nor thy father's fathers have seen, since the day of their being on the ground unto this day,' -- and he turneth and goeth out from Pharaoh.
field: 2010007
2
10
7
And the servants of Pharaoh say unto him, `Until when doth this `one' become a snare to us? send the men away, and they serve Jehovah their God; knowest thou not yet that Egypt hath perished?'
field: 2010008
2
10
8
And Moses is brought back -- Aaron also -- unto Pharaoh, and he saith unto them, `Go, serve Jehovah your God; -- who and who `are' those going?'
field: 2010009
2
10
9
And Moses saith, `With our young ones, and with our aged ones, we go, with our sons, and with our daughters, with our flock, and our herd, we go, for we have a festival to Jehovah.'
field: 2010010
2
10
10
And he saith unto them, `Be it so, Jehovah `be' with you when I send you and your infants away; see -- for evil `is' before your faces;
field: 2010011
2
10
11
not so! go now, ye who `are' men, and serve Jehovah, for that ye are seeking;' and `one' casteth them out from the presence of Pharaoh.
field: 2010012
2
10
12
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Stretch out thy hand against the land of Egypt for the locust, and it goeth up against the land of Egypt, and doth eat every herb of the land -- all that the hail hath left.'
field: 2010013
2
10
13
And Moses stretcheth out his rod against the land of Egypt, and Jehovah hath led an east wind over the land all that day, and all the night; the morning hath been, and the east wind hath lifted up the locust.
field: 2010014
2
10
14
And the locust goeth up against all the land of Egypt, and resteth in all the border of Egypt -- very grievous: before it there hath not been such a locust as it, and after it there is none such;
field: 2010015
2
10
15
and it covereth the eye of all the land, and the land is darkened; and it eateth every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail hath left, and there hath not been left any green thing in the trees, or in the herb of the field, in all the land of Egypt.'
field: 2010016
2
10
16
And Pharaoh hasteth to call for Moses and for Aaron, and saith, `I have sinned against Jehovah your God, and against you,
field: 2010017
2
10
17
and now, bear with, I pray you, my sin, only this time, and make ye supplication to Jehovah your God, that He turn aside from off me only this death.'
field: 2010018
2
10
18
And he goeth out from Pharaoh, and maketh supplication unto Jehovah,
field: 2010019
2
10
19
and Jehovah turneth a very strong sea wind, and it lifteth up the locust, and bloweth it into the Red Sea -- there hath not been left one locust in all the border of Egypt;
field: 2010020
2
10
20
and Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not sent the sons of Israel away.
field: 2010021
2
10
21
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Stretch out thy hand towards the heavens, and there is darkness over the land of Egypt, and the darkness is felt.'
field: 2010022
2
10
22
And Moses stretcheth out his hand towards the heavens, and there is darkness -- thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days;
field: 2010023
2
10
23
they have not seen one another, and none hath risen from his place three days; and to all the sons of Israel there hath been light in their dwellings.'
field: 2010024
2
10
24
And Pharaoh calleth unto Moses and saith, `Go ye, serve Jehovah, only your flock and your herd are stayed, your infants also go with you;'
field: 2010025
2
10
25
and Moses saith, `Thou also dost give in our hand sacrifices and burnt-offerings, and we have prepared for Jehovah our God;
field: 2010026
2
10
26
and also our cattle doth go with us, there is not left a hoof, for from it we do take to serve Jehovah our God; and we -- we know not how we do serve Jehovah till our going thither.'
field: 2010027
2
10
27
And Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not been willing to send them away;
field: 2010028
2
10
28
and Pharaoh saith to him, `Go from me, take heed to thyself, add not to see my face, for in the day thou seest my face thou diest;'
field: 2010029
2
10
29
and Moses saith, `Rightly hast thou spoken, I add not any more to see thy face.'
field: 2011001
2
11
1
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `One plague more I do bring in on Pharaoh, and on Egypt, afterwards he doth send you away from this; when he is sending you away, he surely casteth you out altogether from this `place';
field: 2011002
2
11
2
speak, I pray thee, in the ears of the people, and they ask -- each man from his neighbour, and each woman from her neighbour, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold.'
field: 2011003
2
11
3
And Jehovah giveth the grace of the people in the eyes of the Egyptians; also the man Moses `is' very great in the land of Egypt, in the eyes of the servants of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of the people.
field: 2011004
2
11
4
And Moses saith, `Thus said Jehovah, About midnight I am going out into the midst of Egypt,
field: 2011005
2
11
5
and every first-born in the land of Egypt hath died, from the first-born of Pharaoh who is sitting on his throne, unto the first-born of the maid-servant who `is' behind the millstones, and all the first-born of beasts;
field: 2011006
2
11
6
and there hath been a great cry in all the land of Egypt, such as there hath not been, and such as there is not again.
field: 2011007
2
11
7
`And against all the sons of Israel a dog sharpeneth not its tongue, from man even unto beast, so that ye know that Jehovah doth make a separation between the Egyptians and Israel;
field: 2011008
2
11
8
and all these thy servants have come down unto me, and bowed themselves to me, saying, Go out, thou and all the people who `are' at thy feet; and afterwards I do go out;' -- and he goeth out from Pharaoh in the heat of anger.
field: 2011009
2
11
9
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Pharaoh doth not hearken unto you, so as to multiply My wonders in the land of Egypt;'
field: 2011010
2
11
10
and Moses and Aaron have done all these wonders before Pharaoh, and Jehovah strengtheneth Pharaoh's heart, and he hath not sent the sons of Israel out of his land.
field: 2012001
2
12
1
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, in the land of Egypt, saying,
field: 2012002
2
12
2
`This month `is' to you the chief of months -- it `is' the first to you of the months of the year;
field: 2012003
2
12
3
speak ye unto all the company of Israel, saying, In the tenth of this month -- they take to them each man a lamb for the house of the fathers, a lamb for a house.
field: 2012004
2
12
4
`(And if the household be too few for a lamb, then hath he taken, he and his neighbour who is near unto his house, for the number of persons, each according to his eating ye do count for the lamb,)
field: 2012005
2
12
5
a lamb, a perfect one, a male, a son of a year, let be to you; from the sheep or from the goats ye do take `it'.
field: 2012006
2
12
6
`And it hath become a charge to you, until the fourteenth day of this month, and the whole assembly of the company of Israel have slaughtered it between the evenings;
field: 2012007
2
12
7
and they have taken of the blood, and have put on the two side-posts, and on the lintel over the houses in which they eat it.
field: 2012008
2
12
8
`And they have eaten the flesh in this night, roast with fire; with unleavened things and bitters they do eat it;
field: 2012009
2
12
9
ye do not eat of it raw, or boiled at all in water, but roast with fire, its head with its legs, and with its inwards;
field: 2012010
2
12
10
and ye do not leave of it till morning, and that which is remaining of it till morning with fire ye do burn.
field: 2012011
2
12
11
`And thus ye do eat it: your loins girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand, and ye have eaten it in haste; it is Jehovah's passover,
field: 2012012
2
12
12
and I have passed over through the land of Egypt during this night, and have smitten every first-born in the land of Egypt, from man even unto beast, and on all the gods of Egypt I do judgments; I `am' Jehovah.
field: 2012013
2
12
13
`And the blood hath become a sign for you on the houses where ye `are', and I have seen the blood, and have passed over you, and a plague is not on you for destruction in My smiting in the land of Egypt.
field: 2012014
2
12
14
`And this day hath become to you a memorial, and ye have kept it a feast to Jehovah to your generations; -- a statute age-during; ye keep it a feast.
field: 2012015
2
12
15
Seven days ye eat unleavened things; only -- in the first day ye cause leaven to cease out of your houses; for any one eating anything fermented from the first day till the seventh day, even that person hath been cut off from Israel.
field: 2012016
2
12
16
`And in the first day `is' a holy convocation, and in the seventh day ye have a holy convocation; any work is not done in them, only that which is eaten by any person -- it alone is done by you,
field: 2012017
2
12
17
and ye have observed the unleavened things, for in this self-same day I have brought out your hosts from the land of Egypt, and ye have observed this day to your generations -- a statute age-during.
field: 2012018
2
12
18
`In the first `month', in the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, ye do eat unleavened things until the one and twentieth day of the month, at evening;
field: 2012019
2
12
19
seven days leaven is not found in your houses, for any `one' eating anything fermented -- that person hath been cut off from the company of Israel, among the sojourners or among the natives of the land;
field: 2012020
2
12
20
anything fermented ye do not eat, in all your dwellings ye do eat unleavened things.'
field: 2012021
2
12
21
And Moses calleth for all the elders of Israel, and saith unto them, `Draw out and take for yourselves `from' the flock, for your families, and slaughter the passover-sacrifice;
field: 2012022
2
12
22
and ye have taken a bunch of hyssop, and have dipped `it' in the blood which `is' in the basin, and have struck `it' on the lintel, and on the two side-posts, from the blood which `is' in the basin, and ye, ye go not out each from the opening of his house till morning.
field: 2012023
2
12
23
`And Jehovah hath passed on to smite the Egyptians, and hath seen the blood on the lintel, and on the two side-posts, and Jehovah hath passed over the opening, and doth not permit the destruction to come into your houses to smite.
field: 2012024
2
12
24
`And ye have observed this thing, for a statute to thee, and to thy sons -- unto the age;
field: 2012025
2
12
25
and it hath been, when ye come in unto the land which Jehovah giveth to you, as He hath spoken, that ye have kept this service;
field: 2012026
2
12
26
and it hath come to pass when your sons say unto you, What `is' this service ye have?
field: 2012027
2
12
27
that ye have said, A sacrifice of passover it `is' to Jehovah, who passed over the houses of the sons of Israel in Egypt, in His smiting the Egyptians, and our houses He delivered.'
field: 2012028
2
12
28
And the people bow and do obeisance, and the sons of Israel go and do as Jehovah commanded Moses and Aaron; so have they done.
field: 2012029
2
12
29
And it cometh to pass, at midnight, that Jehovah hath smitten every first-born in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of Pharaoh who is sitting on his throne, unto the first-born of the captive who `is' in the prison-house, and every first-born of beasts.
field: 2012030
2
12
30
And Pharaoh riseth by night, he and all his servants, and all the Egyptians, and there is a great cry in Egypt, for there is not a house where there is not `one' dead,
field: 2012031
2
12
31
and he calleth for Moses and for Aaron by night, and saith, `Rise, go out from the midst of my people, both ye and the sons of Israel, and go, serve Jehovah according to your word;
field: 2012032
2
12
32
both your flock and your herd take ye, as ye have spoken, and go; then ye have blessed also me.'
field: 2012033
2
12
33
And the Egyptians are urgent on the people, hasting to send them away out of the land, for they said, `We are all dead;'
field: 2012034
2
12
34
and the people taketh up its dough before it is fermented, their kneading-troughs `are' bound up in their garments on their shoulder.
field: 2012035
2
12
35
And the sons of Israel have done according to the word of Moses, and they ask from the Egyptians vessels of silver and vessels of gold, and garments;
field: 2012036
2
12
36
and Jehovah hath given the grace of the people in the eyes of the Egyptians, and they cause them to ask, and they spoil the Egyptians.
field: 2012037
2
12
37
And the sons of Israel journey from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, apart from infants;
field: 2012038
2
12
38
and a great rabble also hath gone up with them, and flock and herd -- very much cattle.
field: 2012039
2
12
39
And they bake with the dough which they have brought out from Egypt unleavened cakes, for it hath not fermented; for they have been cast out of Egypt, and have not been able to delay, and also provision they have not made for themselves.
field: 2012040
2
12
40
And the dwelling of the sons of Israel which they have dwelt in Egypt `is' four hundred and thirty years;
field: 2012041
2
12
41
and it cometh to pass, at the end of four hundred and thirty years -- yea, it cometh to pass in this self-same day -- all the hosts of Jehovah have gone out from the land of Egypt.
field: 2012042
2
12
42
A night of watchings it `is' to Jehovah, to bring them out from the land of Egypt; it `is' this night to Jehovah of watchings to all the sons of Israel to their generations.
field: 2012043
2
12
43
And Jehovah saith unto Moses and Aaron, `This `is' a statute of the passover; Any son of a stranger doth not eat of it;
field: 2012044
2
12
44
and any man's servant, the purchase of money, when thou hast circumcised him -- then he doth eat of it;
field: 2012045
2
12
45
a settler or hired servant doth not eat of it;
field: 2012046
2
12
46
in one house it is eaten, thou dost not carry out of the house `any' of the flesh without, and a bone ye do not break of it;
field: 2012047
2
12
47
all the company of Israel do keep it.
field: 2012048
2
12
48
`And when a sojourner sojourneth with thee, and hath made a passover to Jehovah, every male of his `is' to be circumcised, and then he doth come near to keep it, and he hath been as a native of the land, but any uncircumcised one doth not eat of it;
field: 2012049
2
12
49
one law is to a native, and to a sojourner who is sojourning in your midst.'
field: 2012050
2
12
50
And all the sons of Israel do as Jehovah commanded Moses and Aaron; so have they done.
field: 2012051

And it cometh to pass in this self-same day, Jehovah hath brought out the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, by their hosts.

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 2013002
2
13
2
`Sanctify to Me every first-born, opening any womb among the sons of Israel, among man and among beast; it `is' Mine.'
field: 2013003

And Moses saith unto the people, `Remember this day `in' which ye have gone out from Egypt, from the house of servants, for by strength of hand hath Jehovah brought you out from this, and any thing fermented is not eaten;
field: 2013004
2
13
4
To-day ye are going out, in the month of Abib.
field: 2013005

`And it hath been, when Jehovah bringeth thee in unto the land of the Canaanite, and of the Hittite, and of the Amorite, and of the Hivite, and of the Jebusite, which He hath sworn to thy fathers to give to thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou hast done this service in this month.

`Seven days thou dost eat unleavened things, and in the seventh day `is' a feast to Jehovah;
field: 2013007

7
unleavened things are eaten the seven days, and any thing fermented is not seen with thee; yea, leaven is not seen with thee in all thy border.
field: 2013008
2
13

`And thou hast declared to thy son in that day, saying, ``It is' because of what Jehovah did to me, in my going out from Egypt,
field: 2013009
2
13
9
and it hath been to thee for a sign on thy hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, so that the law of Jehovah is in thy mouth, for by a strong hand hath Jehovah brought thee out from Egypt;
field: 2013010
2
13
10
and thou hast kept this statute at its appointed season from days to days.
field: 2013011
2
13
11
`And it hath been, when Jehovah bringeth thee in unto the land of the Canaanite, as He hath sworn to thee and to thy fathers, and hath given it to thee,
field: 2013012
2
13
12
that thou hast caused every one opening a womb to pass over to Jehovah, and every firstling -- the increase of beasts which thou hast: the males `are' Jehovah's.
field: 2013013
2
13
13
`And every firstling of an ass thou dost ransom with a lamb, and if thou dost not ransom `it', then thou hast beheaded it: and every first-born of man among thy sons thou dost ransom.
field: 2013014
2
13
14
`And it hath been, when thy son asketh thee hereafter, saying, What `is' this? that thou hast said unto him, By strength of hand hath Jehovah brought us out from Egypt, from a house of servants;
field: 2013015
2
13
15
yea, it cometh to pass, when Pharaoh hath been pained to send us away, that Jehovah doth slay every first-born in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of man even unto the first-born of beast; therefore I am sacrificing to Jehovah all opening a womb who `are' males, and every first-born of my sons I ransom;
field: 2013016
2
13
16
and it hath been for a token on thy hand, and for frontlets between thine eyes, for by strength of hand hath Jehovah brought us out of Egypt.'
field: 2013017
2
13
17
And it cometh to pass in Pharaoh's sending the people away, that God hath not led them the way of the land of the Philistines, for it `is' near; for God said, `Lest the people repent in their seeing war, and have turned back towards Egypt;'
field: 2013018
2
13
18
and God turneth round the people the way of the wilderness of the Red Sea, and by fifties have the sons of Israel gone up from the land of Egypt.
field: 2013019
2
13
19
And Moses taketh the bones of Joseph with him, for he certainly caused the sons of Israel to swear, saying, `God doth certainly inspect you, and ye have brought up my bones from this with you.'
field: 2013020
2
13
20
And they journey from Succoth, and encamp in Etham at the extremity of the wilderness,
field: 2013021
2
13
21
and Jehovah is going before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them in the way, and by night in a pillar of fire, to give light to them, to go by day and by night;
field: 2013022
2
13
22
He removeth not the pillar of the cloud by day, and the pillar of the fire by night, `from' before the people.
field: 2014001

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 2014002
2
14
2
`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and they turn back and encamp before Pi-Hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal-Zephon; over-against it ye do encamp by the sea,
field: 2014003
2
14
3
and Pharaoh hath said of the sons of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut upon them;
field: 2014004
2
14
4
and I have strengthened the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath pursued after them, and I am honoured on Pharaoh, and on all his force, and the Egyptians have known that I `am' Jehovah;' and they do so.
field: 2014005
2
14
5
And it is declared to the king of Egypt that the people hath fled, and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants is turned against the people, and they say, `What `is' this we have done? that we have sent Israel away from our service.'
field: 2014006
2
14
6
And he harnesseth his chariot, and his people he hath taken with him,
field: 2014007
2
14
7
and he taketh six hundred chosen chariots, even all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over them all;
field: 2014008
2
14
8
and Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursueth after the sons of Israel, and the sons of Israel are going out with a high hand,
field: 2014009
2
14
9
and the Egyptians pursue after them, and all the chariot horses of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his force, overtake them, encamping by the sea, by Pi-Hahiroth, before Baal-Zephon.
field: 2014010
2
14
10
And Pharaoh hath drawn near, and the sons of Israel lift up their eyes, and lo, the Egyptians are journeying after them, and they fear exceedingly, and the sons of Israel cry unto Jehovah.
field: 2014011
2
14
11
And they say unto Moses, `Because there are no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in a wilderness? what is this thou hast done to us -- to bring us out from Egypt?
field: 2014012
2
14
12
Is not this the word which we spake unto thee in Egypt, saying, Cease from us, and we serve the Egyptians; for better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in a wilderness?'
field: 2014013
2
14
13
And Moses saith unto the people, `Fear not, station yourselves, and see the salvation of Jehovah, which He doth for you to-day; for, as ye have seen the Egyptians to-day, ye add no more to see them -- to the age;

2
14
14
Jehovah doth fight for you, and ye keep silent.'
field: 2014015
2
14
15
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `What? thou criest unto Me -- speak unto the sons of Israel, and they journey;
field: 2014016
2
14
16
and thou, lift up thy rod, and stretch out thy hand towards the sea, and cleave it, and the sons of Israel go into the midst of the sea on dry land.
field: 2014017
2
14
17
`And I -- lo, I am strengthening the heart of the Egyptians, and they go in after them, and I am honoured on Pharaoh, and on all his force, on his chariots, and on his horsemen;

18
and the Egyptians have known that I `am' Jehovah, in My being honoured on Pharaoh, on his chariots, and on his horsemen.'

19
And the messenger of God, who is going before the camp of Israel, journeyeth and goeth at their rear; and the pillar of the cloud journeyeth from their front, and standeth at their rear,
field: 2014020
2
14
20
and cometh in between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel, and the cloud and the darkness are, and he enlighteneth the night, and the one hath not drawn near unto the other all the night.
field: 2014021
2
14
21
And Moses stretcheth out his hand towards the sea, and Jehovah causeth the sea to go on by a strong east wind all the night, and maketh the sea become dry ground, and the waters are cleaved,
field: 2014022
2
14
22
and the sons of Israel go into the midst of the sea, on dry land, and the waters `are' to them a wall, on their right and on their left.
field: 2014023
2
14
23
And the Egyptians pursue, and go in after them (all the horses of Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen) unto the midst of the sea,
field: 2014024
2
14
24
and it cometh to pass, in the morning watch, that Jehovah looketh unto the camp of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubleth the camp of the Egyptians,
field: 2014025
2
14
25
and turneth aside the wheels of their chariots, and they lead them with difficulty, and the Egyptians say, `Let us flee from the face of Israel, for Jehovah is fighting for them against the Egyptians.'
field: 2014026
2
14
26
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Stretch out thy hand toward the sea, and the waters turn back on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen.'
field: 2014027
2
14
27
And Moses stretcheth out his hand towards the sea, and the sea turneth back, at the turning of the morning, to its perennial flow, and the Egyptians are fleeing at its coming, and Jehovah shaketh off the Egyptians in the midst of the sea,
field: 2014028
2
14
28
and the waters turn back, and cover the chariots and the horsemen, even all the force of Pharaoh, who are coming in after them into the sea -- there hath not been left of them even one.
field: 2014029
2
14
29
And the sons of Israel have gone on dry land in the midst of the sea, and the waters `are' to them a wall, on their right and on their left;
field: 2014030
2
14
30
and Jehovah saveth Israel in that day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel seeth the Egyptians dead on the sea-shore,
field: 2014031
2
14
31
and Israel seeth the great hand with which Jehovah hath wrought against the Egyptians, and the people fear Jehovah, and remain stedfast in Jehovah, and in Moses His servant.

Then singeth Moses and the sons of Israel this song to Jehovah, and they speak, saying: -- `I sing to Jehovah, For triumphing He hath triumphed; The horse and its rider He hath thrown into the sea.
field: 2015002
2
15

My strength and song is JAH, And He is become my salvation: This `is' my God, and I glorify Him; God of my father, and I exalt Him.

Jehovah `is' a man of battle; Jehovah `is' His name.

Chariots of Pharaoh and his force He hath cast into the sea; And the choice of his captains Have sunk in the Red Sea!

And in the abundance of Thine excellency Thou throwest down Thy withstanders, Thou sendest forth Thy wrath -- It consumeth them as stubble.

8
And by the spirit of Thine anger Have waters been heaped together; Stood as a heap have flowings; Congealed have been depths In the heart of a sea.

The enemy said, I pursue, I overtake; I apportion spoil; Filled is my soul with them; I draw out my sword; My hand destroyeth them: --

Thou hast blown with Thy wind The sea hath covered them; They sank as lead in mighty waters.

Who `is' like Thee among the gods, O Jehovah? Who `is' like Thee -- honourable in holiness -- Fearful in praises -- doing wonders?

2
15
12
Thou hast stretched out Thy right hand -- Earth swalloweth them!

Thou hast led forth in Thy kindness The people whom Thou hast redeemed. Thou hast led on in Thy strength Unto Thy holy habitation.

Peoples have heard, they are troubled; Pain hath seized inhabitants of Philistia.

15
Then have chiefs of Edom been troubled: Mighty ones of Moab -- Trembling doth seize them! Melted have all inhabitants of Canaan!

Fall on them doth terror and dread; By the greatness of Thine arm They are still as a stone, Till Thy people pass over, O Jehovah; Till the people pass over Whom Thou hast purchased.

Thou dost bring them in, And dost plant them In a mountain of Thine inheritance, A fixed place for Thy dwelling Thou hast made, O Jehovah; A sanctuary, O Lord, Thy hands have established;

Jehovah reigneth -- to the age, and for ever!'

For the horse of Pharaoh hath gone in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and Jehovah turneth back on them the waters of the sea, and the sons of Israel have gone on dry land in the midst of the sea.

And Miriam the inspired one, sister of Aaron, taketh the timbrel in her hand, and all the women go out after her, with timbrels and with choruses;

and Miriam answereth to them: -- `Sing ye to Jehovah, For Triumphing He hath triumphed; The horse and its rider He hath thrown into the sea!'

And Moses causeth Israel to journey from the Red Sea, and they go out unto the wilderness of Shur, and they go three days in the wilderness, and have not found water,
field: 2015023
2
15
23
and they come in to Marah, and have not been able to drink the waters of Marah, for they `are' bitter; therefore hath `one' called its name Marah.
field: 2015024
2
15
24
And the people murmur against Moses, saying, `What do we drink?'
field: 2015025
2
15
25
and he crieth unto Jehovah, and Jehovah sheweth him a tree, and he casteth unto the waters, and the waters become sweet. There He hath made for them a statute, and an ordinance, and there He hath tried them,
field: 2015026
2
15
26
and He saith, `If thou dost really hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God, and dost that which is right in His eyes, and hast hearkened to His commands, and kept all His statutes: none of the sickness which I laid on the Egyptians do I lay on thee, for I, Jehovah, am healing thee.

27
And they come to Elim, and there `are' twelve fountains of water, and seventy palm trees; and they encamp there by the waters.
field: 2016001
2
16
1
And they journey from Elim, and all the company of the sons of Israel come in unto the wilderness of Sin, which `is' between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month of their going out from the land of Egypt.
field: 2016002
2
16
2
And all the company of the sons of Israel murmur against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness;
field: 2016003
2
16
3
and the sons of Israel say unto them, `Oh that we had died by the hand of Jehovah in the land of Egypt, in our sitting by the flesh-pot, in our eating bread to satiety -- for ye have brought us out unto this wilderness to put all this assembly to death with hunger.'
field: 2016004
2
16
4
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Lo, I am raining to you bread from the heavens -- and the people have gone out and gathered the matter of a day in its day -- so that I try them whether they walk in My law, or not;
field: 2016005
2
16
5
and it hath been on the sixth day, that they have prepared that which they bring in, and it hath been double above that which they gather day `by' day.'
field: 2016006
2
16
6
And Moses saith -- Aaron also -- unto all the sons of Israel, `Evening -- and ye have known that Jehovah hath brought you out from the land of Egypt;
field: 2016007
2
16
7
and morning -- and ye have seen the honour of Jehovah, in His hearing your murmurings against Jehovah, and what `are' we, that ye murmur against us?'
field: 2016008
2
16
8
And Moses saith, `In Jehovah's giving to you in the evening flesh to eat, and bread in the morning to satiety -- in Jehovah's hearing your murmurings, which ye are murmuring against Him, and what `are' we? your murmurings `are' not against us, but against Jehovah.'
field: 2016009
2
16
9
And Moses saith unto Aaron, `Say unto all the company of the sons of Israel, Come ye near before Jehovah, for He hath heard your murmurings;'
field: 2016010
2
16
10
and it cometh to pass, when Aaron is speaking unto all the company of the sons of Israel, that they turn towards the wilderness, and lo, the honour of Jehovah is seen in the cloud.
field: 2016011
2
16
11
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 2016012
2
16
12
`I have heard the murmurings of the sons of Israel; speak unto them, saying, Between the evenings ye eat flesh, and in the morning ye are satisfied `with' bread, and ye have known that I `am' Jehovah your God.'
field: 2016013
2
16
13
And it cometh to pass in the evening, that the quail cometh up, and covereth the camp, and in the morning there hath been the lying of dew round about the camp,
field: 2016014
2
16
14
and the lying of the dew goeth up, and lo, on the face of the wilderness a thin, bare thing, thin as hoar-frost on the earth.
field: 2016015
2
16
15
And the sons of Israel see, and say one unto another, `What `is' it?' for they have not known what it `is'; and Moses saith unto them, `It `is' the bread which Jehovah hath given to you for food.
field: 2016016
2
16
16
`This `is' the thing which Jehovah hath commanded: Gather of it each according to his eating, an omer for a poll; and the number of your persons, take ye each for those in his tent.'
field: 2016017
2
16
17
And the sons of Israel do so, and they gather, he who is `gathering' much, and he who is `gathering' little;
field: 2016018
2
16
18
and they measure with an omer, and he who is `gathering' much hath nothing over, and he who is `gathering' little hath no lack, each according to his eating they have gathered.
field: 2016019
2
16
19
And Moses saith unto them, `Let no man leave of it till morning;'
field: 2016020
2
16
20
and they have not hearkened unto Moses, and some of them do leave of it till morning, and it bringeth up worms and stinketh; and Moses is wroth with them.
field: 2016021
2
16
21
And they gather it morning by morning, each according to his eating; when the sun hath been warm, then it hath melted.
field: 2016022
2
16
22
And it cometh to pass on the sixth day, they have gathered a second bread, two omers for one, and all the princes of the company come in, and declare to Moses.
field: 2016023
2
16
23
And he saith unto them, `It `is' that which Jehovah hath spoken `of'; a rest -- a holy sabbath to Jehovah -- `is' to-morrow; that which ye bake, bake; and that which ye boil, boil; and all that is over, let rest for yourselves in charge till the morning.'
field: 2016024
2
16
24
And they let it rest until the morning, as Moses hath commanded, and it hath not stank, and a worm hath not been in it.
field: 2016025
2
16
25
And Moses saith, `Eat it to-day, for to-day `is' a sabbath to Jehovah; to-day ye find it not in the field:
field: 2016026
2
16
26
six days ye do gather it, and in the seventh day -- the sabbath -- in it there is none.'
field: 2016027
2
16
27
And it cometh to pass on the seventh day, some of the people have gone out to gather, and have not found.
field: 2016028
2
16
28
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `How long have ye refused to keep My commands, and My laws?
field: 2016029
2
16
29
see, because Jehovah hath given to you the sabbath, therefore He is giving to you on the sixth day bread of two days; abide ye each `in' his place, no one doth go out from his place on the seventh day.'
field: 2016030
2
16
30
And the people rest on the seventh day,

2
16
31
and the house of Israel call its name Manna, and it `is' as coriander seed, white; and its taste `is' as a cake with honey.
field: 2016032
2
16
32
And Moses saith, `This `is' the thing which Jehovah hath commanded: Fill the omer with it, for a charge for your generations, so that they see the bread which I have caused you to eat in the wilderness, in My bringing you out from the land of Egypt.'
field: 2016033
2
16
33
And Moses saith unto Aaron, `Take one pot, and put there the fulness of the omer of manna, and let it rest before Jehovah, for a charge for your generations;'
field: 2016034
2
16
34
as Jehovah hath given commandment unto Moses, so doth Aaron let it rest before the Testimony, for a charge.
field: 2016035
2
16
35
And the sons of Israel have eaten the manna forty years, until their coming in unto the land to be inhabited; the manna they have eaten till their coming in unto the extremity of the land of Canaan.
field: 2016036
2
16
36
and the omer is a tenth of the ephah.

1
And all the company of the sons of Israel journey from the wilderness of Sin, on their journeyings, by the command of Jehovah, and encamp in Rephidim, and there is no water for the people to drink;
field: 2017002
2
17
2
and the people strive with Moses, and say, `Give us water, and we drink.' And Moses saith to them, `What? -- ye strive with me, what? -- ye try Jehovah?'
field: 2017003
2
17
3
and the people thirst there for water, and the people murmur against Moses, and say, `Why `is' this? -- thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to put us to death, also our sons and our cattle, with thirst.'
field: 2017004
2
17
4
And Moses crieth to Jehovah, saying, `What do I to this people? yet a little, and they have stoned me.'
field: 2017005
2
17
5
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Pass over before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel, and thy rod with which thou hast smitten the River take in thy hand, and thou hast gone:
field: 2017006
2
17
6
Lo, I am standing before thee there on the rock in Horeb, and thou hast smitten on the rock, and waters have come out from it, and the people have drunk.' And Moses doth so before the eyes of the elders of Israel,
field: 2017007
2
17
7
and he calleth the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the `strife' of the sons of Israel, and because of their `trying' Jehovah, saying, `Is Jehovah in our midst or not?'

And Amalek cometh, and fighteth with Israel in Rephidim,

and Moses saith unto Joshua, `Choose for us men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to-morrow I am standing on the top of the hill, and the rod of God in my hand.'

And Joshua doth as Moses hath said to him, to fight with Amalek, and Moses, Aaron, and Hur, have gone up `to' the top of the height;

and it hath come to pass, when Moses lifteth up his hand, that Israel hath been mighty, and when he letteth his hands rest, that Amalek hath been mighty.

then hath his lord brought him nigh unto God, and hath brought him nigh unto the door, or unto the side-post, and his lord hath bored his ear with an awl, and he hath served him -- to the age.

`And when a man selleth his daughter for a handmaid, she doth not go out according to the going out of the men-servants;

if evil in the eyes of her lord, so that he hath not betrothed her, then he hath let her be ransomed; to a strange people he hath not power to sell her, in his dealing treacherously with her.

2
30
23
`And thou, take to thyself principal spices, wild honey five hundred `shekels'; and spice-cinnamon, the half of that, two hundred and fifty; and spice-cane two hundred and fifty;
field: 2030024
2
30
24
and cassia five hundred, by the shekel of the sanctuary, and olive oil a hin;
field: 2030025
2
30
25
and thou hast made it a holy anointing oil, a compound mixture, work of a compounder; it is a holy anointing oil.
field: 2030026
2
30
26
`And thou hast anointed with it the tent of meeting, and the ark of the testimony,
field: 2030027
2
30
27
and the table and all its vessels, and the candlestick and its vessels, and the altar of perfume,
field: 2030028
2
30
28
and the altar of burnt-offering and all its vessels, and the laver and its base;
field: 2030029
2
30
29
and thou hast sanctified them, and they have been most holy; all that is coming against them is holy;
field: 2030030
2
30
30
and Aaron and his sons thou dost anoint, and hast sanctified them for being priests to Me.
field: 2030031
2
30
31
`And unto the sons of Israel thou dost speak, saying, A holy anointing oil is this to Me, to your generations;
field: 2030032
2
30
32
on flesh of man it is not poured, and with its proper proportion ye make none like it; it `is' holy; it is holy to you;
field: 2030033
2
30
33
a man who compoundeth `any' like it, or who putteth of it on a stranger -- hath even been cut off from his people.'
field: 2030034
2
30
34
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Take to thee spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum, spices and pure frankincense; they are part for part;
field: 2030035
2
30
35
and thou hast made it a perfume, a compound, work of a compounder, salted, pure, holy;
field: 2030036
2
30
36
and thou hast beaten `some' of it small, and hast put of it before the testimony, in the tent of meeting, whither I am met with thee; most holy it is to you.
field: 2030037
2
30
37
`As to the perfume which thou makest, with its proper proportion ye do not make to yourselves, holy it is to thee to Jehovah;
field: 2030038
2
30
38
a man who maketh `any' like it -- to be refreshed by it -- hath even been cut off from his people.'
field: 2031001
2
31
1
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 2031002
2
31
2
`See, I have called by name Bezaleel, son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,
field: 2031003
2
31
3
and I fill him `with' the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all work,
field: 2031004
2
31
4
to devise devices to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
field: 2031005
2

and in graving of stone for settings, and in graving of wood to work in all work.
field: 2031006
2
31
6
`And I, lo, I have given with him Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, and in the heart of every wise-hearted one I have given wisdom, and they have made all that which I have commanded thee.
field: 2031007
2
31
7
`The tent of meeting, and the ark of testimony, and the mercy-seat which `is' on it, and all the vessels of the tent,

and the altar of the burnt-offering and all its vessels, and the laver and its base,

11
and the anointing oil, and the perfume of the spices for the sanctuary; according to all that I have commanded thee -- they do.'
field: 2031012
2
31
12
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 2031013
2
31
13
`And thou, speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Only, My sabbaths ye do keep, for it `is' a sign between Me and you, to your generations, to know that I, Jehovah, am sanctifying you;
field: 2031014
2
31
14
and ye have kept the sabbath, for it `is' holy to you, he who is polluting it is certainly put to death -- for any who doeth work in it -- that person hath even been cut off from the midst of his people.
field: 2031015
2
31
15
`Six days is work done, and in the seventh day `is' a sabbath of holy rest to Jehovah; any who doeth work in the sabbath-day is certainly put to death,
field: 2031016
2
31
16
and the sons of Israel have observed the sabbath; to keep the sabbath to their generations `is' a covenant age-during,
field: 2031017
2
31
17
between Me and the sons of Israel it `is' a sign -- to the age; for six days Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, and in the seventh day He hath ceased, and is refreshed.'
field: 2031018
2
31
18
And He giveth unto Moses, when He finisheth speaking with him in mount Sinai, two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written by the finger of God.
field: 2032001
2
32
1
And the people see that Moses is delaying to come down from the mount, and the people assemble against Aaron, and say unto him, `Rise, make for us gods who go before us, for this Moses -- the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt -- we have not known what hath happened to him.'
field: 2032002
2
32
2
And Aaron saith unto them, `Break off the rings of gold which `are' in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring in unto me;'
field: 2032003
2
32
3
and all the people themselves break off the rings of gold which `are' in their ears, and bring in unto Aaron,
field: 2032004
2
32
4
and he receiveth from their hand, and doth fashion it with a graving tool, and doth make it a molten calf, and they say, `These thy gods, O Israel, who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.'
field: 2032005
2
32
5
And Aaron seeth, and buildeth an altar before it, and Aaron calleth, and saith, `A festival to Jehovah -- to-morrow;'
field: 2032006
2
32
6
and they rise early on the morrow, and cause burnt-offerings to ascend, and bring nigh peace-offerings; and the people sit down to eat and to drink, and rise up to play.
field: 2032007
2
32
7
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Go, descend, for thy people whom thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt hath done corruptly,
field: 2032008
2
32
8
they have turned aside hastily from the way that I have commanded them; they have made for themselves a molten calf, and bow themselves to it, and sacrifice to it, and say, These thy gods, O Israel, who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.'
field: 2032009
2
32
9
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `I have seen this people, and lo, it `is' a stiff-necked people;
field: 2032010
2
32
10
and now, let Me alone, and My anger doth burn against them, and I consume them, and I make thee become a great nation.'
field: 2032011
2
32
11
And Moses appeaseth the face of Jehovah his God, and saith, `Why, O Jehovah, doth Thine anger burn against Thy people, whom Thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a strong hand?
field: 2032012
2
32
12
why do the Egyptians speak, saying, For evil He brought them out to slay them among mountains, and to consume them from off the face of the ground? turn back from the heat of Thine anger, and repent of the evil against Thy people.
field: 2032013
2
32
13
`Be mindful of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, Thy servants, to whom Thou hast sworn by Thyself, and unto whom Thou speakest: I multiply your seed as stars of the heavens, and all this land, as I have said, I give to your seed, and they have inherited to the age;'
field: 2032014
2
32
14
and Jehovah repenteth of the evil which He hath spoken of doing to His people.
field: 2032015
2
32
15
And Moses turneth, and goeth down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony `are' in his hand, tables written on both their sides, on this and on that `are' they written;
field: 2032016
2
32
16
and the tables are the work of God, and the writing is the writing of God, graven on the tables.
field: 2032017
2
32
17
And Joshua heareth the voice of the people in their shouting, and saith unto Moses, `A noise of battle in the camp!'
field: 2032018
2
32
18
and he saith, `It is not the voice of the crying of might, nor is it the voice of the crying of weakness -- a voice of singing I am hearing.'
field: 2032019
2
32
19
And it cometh to pass, when he hath drawn near unto the camp, that he seeth the calf, and the dancing, and the anger of Moses burneth, and he casteth out of his hands the tables, and breaketh them under the mount;
field: 2032020
2
32
20
and he taketh the calf which they have made, and burneth `it' with fire, and grindeth until `it is' small, and scattereth on the face of the waters, and causeth the sons of Israel to drink.
field: 2032021
2
32
21
And Moses saith unto Aaron, `What hath this people done to thee, that thou hast brought in upon it a great sin?'
field: 2032022
2
32
22
and Aaron saith, `Let not the anger of my lord burn; thou -- thou hast known the people that it `is' in evil;
field: 2032023
2
32
23
and they say to me, Make for us gods, who go before us, for this Moses -- the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt -- we have not known what hath happened to him;
field: 2032024
2
32
24
and I say to them, Whoso hath gold, let them break `it' off, and they give to me, and I cast it into the fire, and this calf cometh out.'
field: 2032025
2
32
25
And Moses seeth the people that it `is' unbridled, for Aaron hath made it unbridled for contempt among its withstanders,
field: 2032026
2
32
26
and Moses standeth in the gate of the camp, and saith, `Who `is' for Jehovah? -- unto me!' and all the sons of Levi are gathered unto him;
field: 2032027
2
32
27
and he saith to them, `Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Put each his sword by his thigh, pass over and turn back from gate to gate through the camp, and slay each his brother, and each his friend, and each his relation.'
field: 2032028
2
32
28
And the sons of Levi do according to the word of Moses, and there fall of the people on that day about three thousand men,
field: 2032029
2
32
29
and Moses saith, `Consecrate your hand to-day to Jehovah, for a man `is' against his son, and against his brother, so as to bring on you to-day a blessing.'
field: 2032030
2
32
30
And it cometh to pass, on the morrow, that Moses saith unto the people, `Ye -- ye have sinned a great sin, and now I go up unto Jehovah, if so be I atone for your sin.'
field: 2032031
2
32
31
And Moses turneth back unto Jehovah, and saith, `Oh this people hath sinned a great sin, that they make to themselves a god of gold;
field: 2032032
2
32
32
and now, if Thou takest away their sin -- and if not -- blot me, I pray thee, out of Thy book which Thou hast written.'
field: 2032033
2
32
33
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Whoso hath sinned against Me -- I blot him out of My book;
field: 2032034
2
32
34
and now, go, lead the people whithersoever I have spoken to thee of; lo, My messenger goeth before thee, and in the day of my charging -- then I have charged upon them their sin.'
field: 2032035
2
32
35
And Jehovah plagueth the people, because they made the calf which Aaron made.
field: 2033001
2
33
1
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, `Go, ascend from this `place', thou and the people, whom thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I have sworn to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, To thy seed I give it,'
field: 2033002
2
33
2
(and I have sent before thee a messenger, and have cast out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite,)
field: 2033003
2
33
3
unto a land flowing with milk and honey, for I do not go up in thy midst, for thou `art' a stiff-necked people -- lest I consume thee in the way.'
field: 2033004
2
33
4
And the people hear this sad thing, and mourn; and none put his ornaments on him.
field: 2033005
2
33
5
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Say unto the sons of Israel, Ye `are' a stiff-necked people; one moment -- I come up into thy midst, and have consumed thee; and now, put down thine ornaments from off thee, and I know what I do to thee;'
field: 2033006
2
33
6
and the sons of Israel take off their ornaments at mount Horeb.
field: 2033007
2
33
7
And Moses taketh the tent, and hath stretched it out at the outside of the camp, afar off from the camp, and hath called it, `Tent of Meeting;' and it hath come to pass, every one seeking Jehovah goeth out unto the tent of meeting, which `is' at the outside of the camp.
field: 2033008
2
33
8
And it hath come to pass, at the going out of Moses unto the tent, all the people rise, and have stood, each at the opening of his tent, and have looked expectingly after Moses, until his going into the tent.
field: 2033009
2
33
9
And it hath come to pass, at the going in of Moses to the tent, the pillar of the cloud cometh down, and hath stood at the opening of the tent, and He hath spoken with Moses;
field: 2033010
2
33
10
and all the people have seen the pillar of the cloud standing at the opening of the tent, and all the people have risen and bowed themselves, each at the opening of his tent.
field: 2033011
2
33
11
And Jehovah hath spoken unto Moses face unto face, as a man speaketh unto his friend; and he hath turned back unto the camp, and his minister Joshua, son of Nun, a youth, departeth not out of the tent.
field: 2033012
2
33
12
And Moses saith unto Jehovah, `See, Thou art saying unto me, Bring up this people, and Thou hast not caused me to know whom Thou dost send with me; and Thou hast said, I have known thee by name, and also thou hast found grace in Mine eyes.
field: 2033013
2
33
13
`And now, if, I pray Thee, I have found grace in Thine eyes, cause me to know, I pray Thee, Thy way, and I know Thee, so that I find grace in Thine eyes, and consider that this nation `is' Thy people;'
field: 2033014
2
33
14
and He saith, `My presence doth go, and I have given rest to thee.'
field: 2033015
2
33
15
And he saith unto Him, `If Thy presence is not going -- take us not up from this `place';
field: 2033016
2
33
16
and in what is it known now, that I have found grace in Thine eyes -- I and Thy people -- is it not in Thy going with us? and we have been distinguished -- I and Thy people -- from all the people who `are' on the face of the ground.'
field: 2033017
2
33
17
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Even this thing which thou hast spoken I do; for thou hast found grace in Mine eyes, and I know thee by name.'
field: 2033018
2
33
18
And he saith, `Shew me, I pray Thee, Thine honour;'
field: 2033019
2
33
19
and He saith, `I cause all My goodness to pass before thy face, and have called concerning the Name of Jehovah before thee, and favoured him whom I favour, and loved him whom I love.'
field: 2033020
2
33
20
He saith also, `Thou art unable to see My face, for man doth not see Me, and live;'
field: 2033021
2
33
21
Jehovah also saith, `Lo, a place `is' by Me, and thou hast stood on the rock,
field: 2033022
2
33
22
and it hath come to pass, in the passing by of Mine honour, that I have set thee in a cleft of the rock, and spread out My hands over thee, until My passing by,
field: 2033023
2
33
23
and I have turned aside My hands, and thou hast seen My back parts, and My face is not seen.'
field: 2034001
2
34
1
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Hew for thyself two tables of stone like the first, and I have written on the tables the words which were on the first tables which thou hast broken;
field: 2034002
2
34
2
and be prepared at morning, and thou hast come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and hast stood before Me there, on the top of the mount,
field: 2034003
2
34
3
and no man cometh up with thee, and also no man is seen in all the mount, also the flock and the herd do not feed over-against that mount.'
field: 2034004
2
34
4
And he heweth two tables of stone like the first, and Moses riseth early in the morning, and goeth up unto mount Sinai, as Jehovah commanded him, and he taketh in his hand two tables of stone.
field: 2034005
2
34
5
And Jehovah cometh down in a cloud, and stationeth Himself with him there, and calleth in the Name of Jehovah,
field: 2034006
2
34
6
and Jehovah passeth over before his face, and calleth: `Jehovah, Jehovah God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in kindness and truth,
field: 2034007
2
34
7
keeping kindness for thousands, taking away iniquity, and transgression, and sin, and not entirely acquitting, charging iniquity of fathers on children, and on children's children, on a third `generation', and on a fourth.'
field: 2034008
2
34
8
And Moses hasteth, and boweth to the earth, and doth obeisance,
field: 2034009
2
34
9
and saith, `If, I pray Thee, I have found grace in Thine eyes, O my Lord, let my Lord, I pray Thee, go in our midst (for it `is' a stiff-necked people), and thou hast forgiven our iniquity and our sin, and hast inherited us.'
field: 2034010
2
34
10
And He saith, `Lo, I am making a covenant: before all thy people I do wonders, which have not been done in all the earth, or in any nation, and all the people in whose midst thou `art' have seen the work of Jehovah, for it `is' fearful that which I am doing with thee.

2
34
11
`Observe for thyself that which I am commanding thee to-day: lo, I am casting out from before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite;

take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitant of the land into which thou art going, lest it become a snare in thy midst;

13
for their altars ye break down, and their standing pillars ye shiver, and its shrines ye cut down;

14
for ye do not bow yourselves to another god -- for Jehovah, whose name `is' Zealous, is a zealous God.

2
34
15
`Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitant of the land, and they have gone a-whoring after their gods, and have sacrificed to their gods, and `one' hath called to thee, and thou hast eaten of his sacrifice,

`Six days thou dost work, and on the seventh day thou dost rest; in ploughing-time and in harvest thou dost rest.

`Three times in a year do all thy males appear before the Lord Jehovah, God of Israel;

`Thou dost not slaughter with a fermented thing the blood of My sacrifice; and the sacrifice of the feast of the passover doth not remain till morning:

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Write for thyself these words, for, according to the tenor of these words I have made with thee a covenant, and with Israel.'

And he is there with Jehovah forty days and forty nights; bread he hath not eaten, and water he hath not drunk; and he writeth on the tables the matters of the covenant -- the ten matters.
field: 2034029
2
34
29
And it cometh to pass, when Moses is coming down from mount Sinai (and the two tables of the testimony `are' in the hand of Moses in his coming down from the mount), that Moses hath not known that the skin of his face hath shone in His speaking with him,
field: 2034030
2
34
30
and Aaron seeth -- all the sons of Israel also -- Moses, and lo, the skin of his face hath shone, and they are afraid of coming nigh unto him.
field: 2034031

31
And Moses calleth unto them, and Aaron and all the princes in the company return unto him, and Moses speaketh unto them;

32
and afterwards have all the sons of Israel come nigh, and he chargeth them with all that Jehovah hath spoken with him in mount Sinai.

And Moses finisheth speaking with them, and putteth on his face a vail;

34
and in the going in of Moses before Jehovah to speak with Him, he turneth aside the vail until his coming out; and he hath come out and hath spoken unto the sons of Israel that which he is commanded;

and the sons of Israel have seen the face of Moses that the skin of the face of Moses hath shone, and Moses hath put back the vail on his face until his going in to speak with Him.

And Moses assembleth all the company of the sons of Israel, and saith unto them, `These `are' the things which Jehovah hath commanded -- to do them:

and He doth fill him `with' the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all work,

And all the wise men, who are doing all the work of the sanctuary, come each from his work which they are doing,

5
and speak unto Moses, saying, `The people are multiplying to bring in more than sufficient for the service of the work which Jehovah commanded to make.'
field: 2036006

`On the first day of the month, in the first month, thou dost raise up the tabernacle of the tent of meeting,

and hast set there the ark of the testimony, and hast covered over the ark with the vail,

and hast brought in the table, and set its arrangement in order, and hast brought in the candlestick, and caused its lamps to go up.

5
`And thou hast put the golden altar for perfume before the ark of the testimony, and hast put the covering of the opening to the tabernacle,

and hast put the altar of the burnt-offering before the opening of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting,
field: 2040007
2
40
7
and hast put the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and hast put water there.
field: 2040008
2
40
8
`And thou hast set the court round about, and hast placed the covering of the gate of the court,
field: 2040009
2
40
9
and hast taken the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle, and all that `is' in it, and hallowed it, and all its vessels, and it hath been holy;
field: 2040010
2
40
10
and thou hast anointed the altar of the burnt-offering, and all its vessels, and sanctified the altar, and the altar hath been most holy;
field: 2040011
2
40
11
and thou hast anointed the laver and its base, and sanctified it.
field: 2040012
2
40
12
`And thou hast brought near Aaron and his sons unto the opening of the tent of meeting, and hast bathed them with water;

2
40
13
and thou hast clothed Aaron with the holy garments, and anointed him, and sanctified him, and he hath acted as priest to Me.
field: 2040014
2
40
14
`And his sons thou dost bring near, and hast clothed them with coats,
field: 2040015
2
40
15
and anointed them as thou hast anointed their father, and they have acted as priests to Me, and their anointing hath been to be to them for a priesthood age-during, to their generations.'
field: 2040016
2
40
16
And Moses doth according to all that Jehovah hath commanded him; so he hath done.
field: 2040017
2
40
17
And it cometh to pass, in the first month, in the second year, in the first of the month, the tabernacle hath been raised up;
field: 2040018
2
40
18
and Moses raiseth up the tabernacle, and setteth its sockets, and placeth its boards, and placeth its bars, and raiseth its pillars,
field: 2040019
2
40
19
and spreadeth the tent over the tabernacle, and putteth the covering of the tent upon it above, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
field: 2040020
2
40
20
And he taketh and putteth the testimony unto the ark, and setteth the staves on the ark, and putteth the mercy-seat on the ark above;
field: 2040021
2
40
21
and bringeth in the ark unto the tabernacle, and placeth the vail of the covering, and covereth over the ark of the testimony, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
field: 2040022
2
40
22
And he putteth the table in the tent of meeting, on the side of the tabernacle northward, at the outside of the vail,
field: 2040023
2
40
23
and setteth in order upon it the arrangement of bread, before Jehovah, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
field: 2040024
2
40
24
And he putteth the candlestick in the tent of meeting, over-against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward,
field: 2040025
2
40
25
and causeth the lamps to go up before Jehovah, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
field: 2040026
2
40
26
And he setteth the golden altar in the tent of meeting, before the vail,
field: 2040027
2
40
27
and maketh perfume on it -- spice-perfume -- as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
field: 2040028
2
40
28
And he setteth the covering of the opening to the tabernacle,
field: 2040029
2
40
29
and the altar of the burnt-offering he hath set at the opening of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and causeth the burnt-offering to go up upon it, and the present, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
field: 2040030
2
40
30
And he putteth the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and putteth water there for washing,
field: 2040031
2
40
31
and Moses and Aaron and his sons have washed their hands and their feet at the same;
field: 2040032
2
40
32
in their going in unto the tent of meeting, and in their drawing near unto the altar, they wash, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
field: 2040033
2
40
33
And he raiseth up the court round about the tabernacle, and about the altar, and placeth the covering of the gate of the court; and Moses completeth the work.
field: 2040034
2
40
34
And the cloud covereth the tent of meeting, and the honour of Jehovah hath filled the tabernacle;
field: 2040035
2
40
35
and Moses hath not been able to go in unto the tent of meeting, for the cloud hath tabernacled on it, and the honour of Jehovah hath filled the tabernacle.
field: 2040036
2
40
36
And in the going up of the cloud from off the tabernacle the sons of Israel journey in all their journeys;
field: 2040037
2
40
37
and if the cloud go not up then they journey not, until the day of its going up:
field: 2040038

for the cloud of Jehovah `is' on the tabernacle by day, and fire is in it by night, before the eyes of all the house of Israel in all their journeys.

And Jehovah calleth unto Moses, and speaketh unto him out of the tent of meeting, saying,

`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, Any man of you when he doth bring near an offering to Jehovah, out of the cattle -- out of the herd, or out of the flock -- ye do bring near your offering.

`And he hath stripped the burnt-offering, and hath cut it into its pieces;

`And if his offering `is' a burnt-offering out of the fowl to Jehovah, than he hath brought near his offering out of the turtle-doves or out of the young pigeons,

17
and he hath cleaved it with its wings (he doth not separate `it'), and the priest hath made it a perfume on the altar, on the wood, which `is' on the fire; it `is' a burnt-offering, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah.

and out of the basket of unleavened things, which `is' before Jehovah, he hath taken one unleavened cake, and one cake of oiled bread, and one thin cake, and putteth `them' on the fat, and on the right leg;

And Moses taketh them from off their hands, and maketh perfume on the altar, on the burnt-offering, they `are' consecrations for sweet fragrance; it `is' a fire-offering to Jehovah;

And Moses saith unto Aaron, and unto his sons, `Boil ye the flesh at the opening of the tent of meeting, and there ye do eat it and the bread which `is' in the basket of the consecrations, as I have commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons do eat it.

And it cometh to pass on the eighth day, Moses hath called for Aaron and for his sons, and for the elders of Israel,

and he saith unto Aaron, `Take to thyself a calf, a son of the herd, for a sin-offering, and a ram for a burnt-offering, perfect ones, and bring near before Jehovah.

and a bullock and a ram for peace-offerings, to sacrifice before Jehovah, and a present mixed with oil; for to-day Jehovah hath appeared unto you.'
field: 3009005

And they take that which Moses hath commanded unto the front of the tent of meeting, and all the company draw near and stand before Jehovah;

and Moses saith, `This `is' the thing which Jehovah hath commanded; do `it', and the honour of Jehovah doth appear unto you.'

And Moses saith unto Aaron, `Draw near unto the altar, and make thy sin-offering, and thy burnt-offering, and make atonement for thyself, and for the people, and make the offering of the people, and make atonement for them, as Jehovah hath commanded.'
field: 3009008

And Aaron draweth near unto the altar, and slaughtereth the calf of the sin-offering, which `is' for himself;

and the sons of Aaron bring the blood near unto him, and he dippeth his finger in the blood, and putteth `it' on the horns of the altar, and the blood he hath poured out at the foundation of the altar;

And he bringeth near the offering of the people, and taketh the goat of the sin-offering which `is' for the people, and slaughtered it, and maketh it a sin-offering, like the first;

And he slaughtereth the bullock and the ram, a sacrifice of the peace-offerings, which `are' for the people, and sons of Aaron present the blood unto him (and he sprinkleth it on the altar round about),

And the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, take each his censer, and put in them fire, and put on it perfume, and bring near before Jehovah strange fire, which He hath not commanded them;

and fire goeth out from before Jehovah, and consumeth them, and they die before Jehovah.

And Moses saith unto Aaron, and to Eleazar, and to Ithamar his sons, `Your heads ye do not uncover, and your garments ye do not rend, that ye die not, and on all the company He be wroth; as to your brethren, the whole house of Israel, they bewail the burning which Jehovah hath kindled;

And Jehovah speaketh unto Aaron, saying,

`Wine and strong drink thou dost not drink, thou, and thy sons with thee, in your going in unto the tent of meeting, and ye die not -- a statute age-during to your generations;

so as to make a separation between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the pure;

10
11
and to teach the sons of Israel all the statutes which Jehovah hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.'
field: 3010012
3

12
And Moses speaketh unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar, and unto Ithamar his sons, who are left, `Take ye the present that is left from the fire-offerings of Jehovah, and eat it unleavened near the altar, for it `is' most holy,
field: 3010013
3
10
13
and ye have eaten it in the holy place, for it `is' thy portion, and the portion of thy sons, from the fire-offerings of Jehovah; for so I have been commanded.
field: 3010014
3
10
14
`And the breast of the wave-offering, and the leg of the heave-offering, ye do eat in a clean place, thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee; for thy portion and the portion of thy sons they have been given, out of the sacrifices of peace-offerings of the sons of Israel;

the leg of the heave-offering, and breast of the wave-offering, besides fire-offerings of the fat, they do bring in to wave a wave-offering before Jehovah, and it hath been to thee, and to thy sons with thee, by a statute age-during, as Jehovah hath commanded.'
field: 3010016
3
10
16
And the goat of the sin-offering hath Moses diligently sought, and lo, it is burnt, and he is wroth against Eleazar, and against Ithamar, sons of Aaron, who are left, saying,
field: 3010017
3
10
17
`Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin-offering in the holy place, for it `is' most holy -- and it He hath given to you to take away the iniquity of the company, to make atonement for them before Jehovah?

18
lo, its blood hath not been brought in unto the holy place within; eating ye do eat it in the holy place, as I have commanded.'

19
And Aaron speaketh unto Moses, `Lo, to-day they have brought near their sin-offering and their burnt-offering before Jehovah; and `things' like these meet me, yet I have eaten a sin-offering to-day; is it good in the eyes of Jehovah?'
field: 3010020

And Moses hearkeneth, and it is good in his eyes.

`And if the people of the land really hide their eyes from that man, in his giving of his seed to the Molech, so as not to put him to death,

`Say unto them, To your generations, any man who draweth near, out of all your seed, unto the holy things which the sons of Israel do sanctify to Jehovah, and his uncleanness on him -- even that person hath been cut off from before Me; I `am' Jehovah.

`Any man of the seed of Aaron, and is leprous or hath an issue -- of the holy things he doth not eat till that he is clean; and he who is coming against any uncleanness of a person, or a man whose seed of copulation goeth out from him,

or a man who cometh against any teeming thing which is unclean to him, or against a man who is unclean to him, even any of his uncleanness --

6
the person who cometh against it -- hath even been unclean till the evening, and doth not eat of the holy things, but hath bathed his flesh with water,

7
and the sun hath gone in, and he hath been clean, and afterwards he doth eat of the holy things, for it `is' his food;

10
`And no stranger doth eat of the holy thing; a settler of a priest and an hireling doth not eat of the holy thing;

11
and when a priest buyeth a person, the purchase of his money, he doth eat of it, also one born in his house; they do eat of his bread.

`And a priest's daughter, when she is a strange man's, -- she, of the heave-offering of the holy things doth not eat;

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

`Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, Any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners in Israel, who bringeth near his offering, of all his vows, or of all his willing offerings which they bring near to Jehovah for a burnt-offering;

nothing in which `is' blemish do ye bring near, for it is not for a pleasing thing for you.

`And when a man bringeth near a sacrifice of peace-offerings to Jehovah, to complete a vow, or for a willing-offering, of the herd or of the flock, it is perfect for a pleasing thing: no blemish is in it;

3
22

blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed -- ye do not bring these near to Jehovah, and a fire-offering ye do not make of them on the altar to Jehovah.

`As to an ox or a sheep enlarged or dwarfed -- a willing-offering ye do make it, but for a vow it is not pleasing.

As to a bruised, or beaten, or enlarged, or cut thing -- ye do not bring `it' near to Jehovah; even in your land ye do not do it.

25
And from the hand of a son of a stranger ye do not bring near the bread of your God, of any of these, for their corruption `is' in them; blemish `is' in them; they are not pleasing for you.'

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

27
`When ox or lamb or goat is born, and it hath been seven days under its dam, then from the eighth day and henceforth, it is pleasing for an offering, a fire-offering to Jehovah;

And a son of an Israelitish woman goeth out (and he `is' son of an Egyptian man), in the midst of the sons of Israel, and strive in the camp do the son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel,

24
11
and the son of the Israelitish woman execrateth the Name, and revileth; and they bring him in unto Moses; and his mother's name `is' Shelomith daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan;

3
24
12
and he causeth him to rest in charge -- to explain to them by the mouth of Jehovah.
field: 3024013

13
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

3
24
14
`Bring out the reviler unto the outside of the camp; and all those hearing have laid their hands on his head, and all the company have stoned him.
field: 3024015

15
`And unto the sons of Israel thou dost speak, saying, When any man revileth his God -- then he hath borne his sin;
field: 3024016
3
24
16
and he who is execrating the name of Jehovah is certainly put to death; all the company do certainly cast stones at him; as a sojourner so a native, in his execrating the Name, is put to death.
field: 3024017
3
24
17
`And when a man smiteth any soul of man, he is certainly put to death.

18
`And he who smiteth a beast repayeth it, body for body.

`And he who smiteth a beast repayeth it, and he who smiteth `the life of' man is put to death;

one judgment is to you; as a sojourner so is a native; for I `am' Jehovah your God.'

And Moses speaketh unto the sons of Israel, and they bring out the reviler unto the outside of the camp, and stone him with stones; and the sons of Israel have done as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, in mount Sinai, saying,
field: 3025002
3
25
2
`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye come in unto the land which I am giving to you, then hath the land kept a sabbath to Jehovah.

`Six years thou dost sow thy field, and six years thou dost prune thy vineyard, and hast gathered its increase,

3
25
5
the spontaneous growth of thy harvest thou dost not reap, and the grapes of thy separated thing thou dost not gather, a year of rest it is to the land.

`And the sabbath of the land hath been to you for food, to thee, and to thy man-servant, and to thy handmaid, and to thy hireling, and to thy settler, who are sojourning with thee;

3
25
10
and ye have hallowed the year, the fiftieth year; and ye have proclaimed liberty in the land to all its inhabitants; a jubilee it is to you; and ye have turned back each unto his possession; yea, each unto his family ye do turn back.
field: 3025011
3
25
11
`A jubilee it `is', the fiftieth year, a year it is to you; ye sow not, nor reap its spontaneous growth, nor gather its separated things;

3
25
12
for a jubilee it `is', holy it is to you; out of the field ye eat its increase;

3
25
13
in the year of this jubilee ye turn back each unto his possession.
field: 3025014

`And when thou sellest anything to thy fellow, or buyest from the hand of thy fellow, ye do not oppress one another;

16
according to the multitude of the years thou dost multiply its price, and according to the fewness of the years thou dost diminish its price; for a number of increases he is selling to thee;

`And ye have done My statutes, and My judgments ye keep, and have done them, and ye have dwelt on the land confidently,

`And when ye say, What do we eat in the seventh year, lo, we do not sow, nor gather our increase?

then I have commanded My blessing on you in the sixth year, and it hath made the increase for three years;

27
then he hath reckoned the years of its sale, and hath given back that which is over to the man to whom he sold `it', and he hath returned to his possession.

28
`And if his hand hath not found sufficiency to give back to him, then hath his sold thing been in the hand of him who buyeth it till the year of jubilee; and it hath gone out in the jubilee, and he hath returned to his possession.

30
and if it is not redeemed until the fulness to him of a perfect year, then hath the house which `is' in a walled city been established to extinction to the buyer of it, to his generations; it goeth not out in the jubilee;
field: 3025031
3
25
31
and a house of the villages which have no wall round about, on the field of the country is reckoned; redemption is to it, and in the jubilee it goeth out.

`As to cities of the Levites -- houses of the cities of their possession -- redemption age-during is to the Levites;
field: 3025033
3
25
33
as to him who redeemeth from the Levites, both the sale of a house and the city of his possession have gone out in the jubilee, for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession in the midst of the sons of Israel.

field: 3027021

21
and the field hath been, in its going out in the jubilee, holy to Jehovah as a field which is devoted; to the priest is its possession.
field: 3027022

27
22
`And if the field of his purchase (which `is' not of the fields of his possession) `one' sanctify to Jehovah --
field: 3027023
3
27
23
then hath the priest reckoned to him the amount of thy valuation unto the year of jubilee, and he hath given thy valuation in that day -- a holy thing to Jehovah;
field: 3027024
3
27
24
in the year of the jubilee the field returneth to him from whom he bought it, to him whose `is' the possession of the land.
field: 3027025

field: 3027027

27
And if among the unclean beasts, then he hath ransomed `it' at thy valuation, and he hath added its fifth to it; and if it is not redeemed, then it hath been sold at thy valuation.
field: 3027028
3
27
28
`Only, no devoted thing which a man devoteth to Jehovah, of all that he hath, of man, and beast, and of the field of his possession, is sold or redeemed; every devoted thing is most holy to Jehovah.
field: 3027029
3
27
29
`No devoted thing, which is devoted of man, is ransomed, it is surely put to death.
field: 3027030

And all tithe of the land, of the seed of the land, of the fruit of the tree, is Jehovah's -- holy to Jehovah.

27
31
`And if a man really redeem `any' of his tithe, its fifth he addeth to it.
field: 3027032

27
32
`And all the tithe of the herd and of the flock -- all that passeth by under the rod -- the tenth is holy to Jehovah;
field: 3027033
3
27
33
he enquireth not between good and bad, nor doth he change it; and if he really change it -- then it hath been -- it and its exchange is holy; it is not redeemed.'

`Speak unto Aaron, and thou hast said unto him, In thy causing the lights to go up, over-against the face of the candlestick do the seven lights give light.'

9
and thou hast brought near the Levites before the tent of meeting, and thou hast assembled the whole company of the sons of Israel,

4
8
10
and thou hast brought near the Levites before Jehovah, and the sons of Israel have laid their hands on the Levites,

8
11
and Aaron hath waved the Levites -- a wave-offering before Jehovah, from the sons of Israel, and they have been -- for doing the service of Jehovah.

12
`And the Levites lay their hands on the head of the bullocks, and make thou the one a sin-offering, and the one a burnt-offering to Jehovah, to atone for the Levites,

4

13
and thou hast caused the Levites to stand before Aaron, and before his sons, and hast waved them -- a wave-offering to Jehovah;

14
and thou hast separated the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel, and the Levites have become Mine;

field: 4008017
4
8
17
for Mine `is' every first-born among the sons of Israel, among man and among beast; in the day of my smiting every first-born in the land of Egypt I sanctified them for Myself;

4
8
18

4
8
23
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

24
`This `is' that which `is' the Levites': from a son of five and twenty years and upward he doth go in to serve the host in the service of the tent of meeting,

25
and from a son of fifty years he doth return from the host of the service, and doth not serve any more,

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, in the wilderness of Sinai, in the second year of their going out of the land of Egypt, in the first month, saying,
field: 4009002
4
9
2
`Also, the sons of Israel prepare the passover in its appointed season;

4
9

in the fourteenth day of this month between the evenings ye prepare it in its appointed season; according to all its statutes, and according to all its ordinances ye prepare it.'

And Moses speaketh unto the sons of Israel to prepare the passover,

4
9
5
and they prepare the passover in the first `month', on the fourteenth day of the month, between the evenings, in the wilderness of Sinai; according to all that Jehovah hath commanded Moses, so have the sons of Israel done.
field: 4009006
4

6
And there are men who have been defiled by the body of a man, and they have not been able to prepare the passover on that day, and they come near before Moses, and before Aaron, on that day,
field: 4009007
4
9
7
and those men say unto him, `We are defiled by the body of a man; why are we withheld so as not to bring near the offering of Jehovah in its appointed season, in the midst of the sons of Israel?'
field: 4009008
4
9
8
And Moses saith unto them, `Stand ye, and I hear what Jehovah hath commanded concerning you.'
field: 4009009
4
9
9
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4009010
4
9
10
`Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Though any man is unclean by a body or in a distant journey (of you or of your generations), yet he hath prepared a passover to Jehovah;
field: 4009011
4
9
11
in the second month, on the fourteenth day, between the evenings they prepare it; with unleavened and bitter things they eat it;
field: 4009012
4
9
12
they do not leave of till morning; and a bone they do not break in it: according to all the statute of the passover they prepare it.
field: 4009013
4
9
13
`And the man who is clean, and hath not been on a journey, and hath ceased to prepare the passover, even that person hath been cut off from his people; because the offering of Jehovah he hath not brought near, in its appointed season, that man doth bear his sin.
field: 4009014
4

14
`And when a sojourner sojourneth with you, then he hath prepared a passover to Jehovah, according to the statute of the passover, and according to its ordinance, so he doth; one statute is to you, even to a sojourner, and to a native of the land.'

And in the day of the raising up of the tabernacle hath the cloud covered the tabernacle, even the tent of the testimony; and in the evening there is on the tabernacle as an appearance of fire till morning;

16
so it is continually; the cloud covereth it, also the appearance of fire by night.
field: 4009017

And according to the going up of the cloud from off the tent and afterwards do the sons of Israel journey; and in the place where the cloud doth tabernacle, there do the sons of Israel encamp;

by the command of Jehovah the sons of Israel journey, and by the command of Jehovah they encamp; all the days that the cloud doth tabernacle over the tabernacle they encamp.

And in the cloud prolonging itself over the tabernacle many days, then have the sons of Israel kept the charge of Jehovah, and journey not,

`Make to thee two trumpets of silver; beaten work thou dost make them, and they have been to thee for the convocation of the company, and for the journeying of the camps;

and they have blown with them, and all the company have met together unto thee, unto the opening of the tent of meeting.
field: 4010004
4
10
4
And if with one they blow, then have the princes, heads of the thousands of Israel, met together unto thee;

5
`And ye have blown -- a shout, and the camps which are encamping eastward have journeyed.

`And ye have blown -- a second shout, and the camps which are encamping southward have journeyed; a shout they blow for their journeys.

10
7
`And in the assembling of the assembly ye blow, and do not shout;

`And in the day of your gladness, and in your appointed seasons, and in the beginnings of your months, ye have blown also with the trumpets over your burnt-offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace-offerings, and they have been to you for a memorial before your God; I, Jehovah, `am' your God.'

And the standard of the camp of the sons of Ephraim hath journeyed, by their hosts, and over its host `is' Elishama son of Ammihud.

And Moses saith to Hobab son of Raguel the Midianite, father-in-law of Moses, `We are journeying unto the place of which Jehovah hath said, I give it to you; go with us, and we have done good to thee; for Jehovah hath spoken good concerning Israel.'
field: 4010030

And he saith unto him, `I do not go; but unto my land and unto my kindred do I go.'
field: 4010031

10

And he saith, `I pray thee, forsake us not, because thou hast known our encamping in the wilderness, and thou hast been to us for eyes;

and it hath come to pass when thou goest with us, yea, it hath come to pass -- that good which Jehovah doth kindly with us -- it we have done kindly to thee.'

And they journey from the mount of Jehovah a journey of three days; and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah is journeying before them the journey of three days, to spy out for them a resting-place;
field: 4010034
4
10
34
and the cloud of Jehovah `is' on them by day, in their journeying from the camp.
field: 4010035
4
10
35
And it cometh to pass in the journeying of the ark, that Moses saith, `Rise, O Jehovah, and Thine enemies are scattered, and those hating Thee flee from Thy presence.'

And in its resting he saith, `Return, O Jehovah, `to' the myriads, the thousands of Israel.'

And the people is evil, as those sighing habitually in the ears of Jehovah, and Jehovah heareth, and His anger burneth, and the fire of Jehovah burneth among them, and consumeth in the extremity of the camp.
field: 4011002
4
11
2
And the people cry unto Moses, and Moses prayeth unto Jehovah, and the fire is quenched;
field: 4011003
4

3
and he calleth the name of that place Taberah, for the fire of Jehovah hath `burned' among them.
field: 4011004

And the rabble who `are' in its midst have lusted greatly, and the sons of Israel also turn back and weep, and say, `Who doth give us flesh?

We have remembered the fish which we do eat in Egypt for nought, the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick;
field: 4011006
4
11
6
and now our soul `is' dry, there is not anything, save the manna, before our eyes.'
field: 4011007
4
11
7
And the manna is as coriander seed, and its aspect as the aspect of bdolach;
field: 4011008
4
11
8
the people have turned aside and gathered `it', and ground `it' with millstones, or beat `it' in a mortar, and boiled `it' in a pan, and made it cakes, and its taste hath been as the taste of the moisture of oil.
field: 4011009

And in the descending of the dew on the camp by night, the manna descendeth upon it.

And Moses heareth the people weeping by its families, each at the opening of his tent, and the anger of Jehovah burneth exceedingly, and in the eyes of Moses `it is' evil.
field: 4011011
4

11
And Moses saith unto Jehovah, `Why hast Thou done evil to Thy servant? and why have I not found grace in Thine eyes -- to put the burden of all this people upon me?
field: 4011012
4
11
12
I -- have I conceived all this people? I -- have I begotten it, that Thou sayest unto me, Carry it in thy bosom as the nursing father beareth the suckling, unto the ground which Thou hast sworn to its fathers?
field: 4011013
4
11
13
Whence have I flesh to give to all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give to us flesh, and we eat.
field: 4011014
4
11
14
I am not able -- I alone -- to bear all this people, for `it is' too heavy for me;

and if thus Thou art doing to me -- slay me, I pray Thee; slay, if I have found grace in thine eyes, and let me not look on mine affliction.'

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Gather to Me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou hast known that they are elders of the people, and its authorities; and thou hast taken them unto the tent of meeting, and they have stationed themselves there with thee,
field: 4011017
4
11
17
and I have come down and spoken with thee there, and have kept back of the Spirit which `is' upon thee, and have put on them, and they have borne with thee some of the burden of the people, and thou dost not bear `it' thyself alone.
field: 4011018
4
11
18
`And unto the people thou dost say, Sanctify yourselves for to-morrow, and ye have eaten flesh (for ye have wept in the ears of Jehovah, saying, Who doth give us flesh? for we `had' good in Egypt) -- and Jehovah hath given to you flesh, and ye have eaten.
field: 4011019

Ye do not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days; --

11
20
unto a month of days, till that it come out from your nostrils, and it hath become to you an abomination; because that ye have loathed Jehovah, who `is' in your midst, and weep before Him, saying, Why is this? -- we have come out of Egypt!'
field: 4011021

11
21
And Moses saith, `Six hundred thousand footmen `are' the people in whose midst I `am'; and Thou, Thou hast said, Flesh I give to them, and they have eaten, a month of days!

Is flock and herd slaughtered for them, that one hath found for them? -- are all the fishes of the sea gathered for them -- that one hath found for them?'

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Is the hand of Jehovah become short? now thou dost see whether My word meeteth thee or not.'
field: 4011024
4
11
24
And Moses goeth out, and speaketh unto the people the words of Jehovah, and gathereth seventy men of the elders of the people, and causeth them to stand round about the tent,
field: 4011025
4
11
25
and Jehovah cometh down in the cloud, and speaketh unto him, and keepeth back of the Spirit which `is' on him, and putteth on the seventy men of the elders; and it cometh to pass at the resting of the Spirit on them, that they prophesy, and do not cease.
field: 4011026
4
11
26
And two of the men are left in the camp, the name of the one `is' Eldad, and the name of the second Medad, and the spirit resteth upon them, (and they are among those written, and have not gone out to the tent), and they prophesy in the camp;
field: 4011027
4
11
27
and the young man runneth, and declareth to Moses, and saith, `Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.'

And Joshua son of Nun, minister of Moses, `one' of his young men, answereth and saith, `My lord Moses, restrain them.'

And Moses saith to him, `Art thou zealous for me? O that all Jehovah's people were prophets! that Jehovah would put His Spirit upon them!'

30
And Moses is gathered unto the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
field: 4011031

31
And a spirit hath journeyed from Jehovah, and cutteth off quails from the sea, and leaveth by the camp, as a day's journey here, and as a day's journey there, round about the camp, and about two cubits, on the face of the land.
field: 4011032
4

32
And the people rise all that day, and all the night, and all the day after, and gather the quails -- he who hath least hath gathered ten homers -- and they spread them out for themselves round about the camp.
field: 4011033

The flesh is yet between their teeth -- it is not yet cut off -- and the anger of Jehovah hath burned among the people, and Jehovah smiteth among the people -- a very great smiting;

34
and `one' calleth the name of that place Kibroth-Hattaavah, for there they have buried the people who lust.

From Kibroth-Hattaavah have the people journeyed to Hazeroth, and they are in Hazeroth.

And Miriam speaketh -- Aaron also -- against Moses concerning the circumstance of the Cushite woman whom he had taken: for a Cushite woman he had taken;
field: 4012002
4
12
2
and they say, `Only by Moses hath Jehovah spoken? also by us hath he not spoken?' and Jehovah heareth.
field: 4012003

And the man Moses `is' very humble, more than any of the men who `are' on the face of the ground.
field: 4012004
4
12
4
And Jehovah saith suddenly unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam, `Come out ye three unto the tent of meeting;' and they three come out.
field: 4012005
4
12
5
And Jehovah cometh down in the pillar of the cloud, and standeth at the opening of the tent, and calleth Aaron and Miriam, and they come out both of them.
field: 4012006
4

6
And He saith, `Hear, I pray you, My words: If your prophet is of Jehovah -- in an appearance unto him I make Myself known; in a dream I speak with him;

not so My servant Moses; in all My house he `is' stedfast;

8
mouth unto mouth I speak with him, and `by' an appearance, and not in riddles; and the form of Jehovah he beholdeth attentively; and wherefore have ye not been afraid to speak against My servant -- against Moses?'

And the anger of Jehovah burneth against them, and He goeth on,

and the cloud hath turned aside from off the tent, and lo, Miriam `is' leprous as snow; and Aaron turneth unto Miriam, and lo, leprous!

And Aaron saith unto Moses, `O, my lord, I pray thee, lay not upon us sin `in' which we have been foolish, and `in' which we have sinned;

let her not, I pray thee, be as `one' dead, when in his coming out from the womb of his mother -- the half of his flesh is consumed.'

And Moses crieth unto Jehovah, saying, `O God, I pray Thee, give, I pray Thee, healing to her.'

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `And her father had but spat in her face -- is she not ashamed seven days? she is shut out seven days at the outside of the camp, and afterwards she is gathered.'
field: 4012015
4
12
15
And Miriam is shut out at the outside of the camp seven days, and the people hath not journeyed till Miriam is gathered;

and afterwards have the people journeyed from Hazeroth, and they encamp in the wilderness of Paran.

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

`Send for thee men, and they spy the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the sons of Israel; one man, one man for the tribe of his fathers ye do send, every one a prince among them.'

And Moses sendeth them from the wilderness of Paran by the command of Jehovah; all of them `are' men, heads of the sons of Israel they are,

and these their names: For the tribe of Reuben, Shammua son of Zaccur.

These `are' the names of the men whom Moses hath sent to spy the land; and Moses calleth Hoshea son of Nun, Jehoshua.
field: 4013017
4
13
17
And Moses sendeth them to spy the land of Canaan, and saith unto them, `Go ye up this `way' into the south, and ye have gone up the mountain,
field: 4013018
4
13
18
and have seen the land what it `is', and the people which is dwelling on it, whether it `is' strong or feeble; whether it `is' few or many;
field: 4013019
4
13
19
and what the land `is' in which it is dwelling, whether it `is' good or bad; and what `are' the cities in which it is dwelling, whether in camps or in fortresses;

4
13
20
And what the land `is', whether it `is' fat or lean; whether there is wood in it or not; and ye have strengthened yourselves, and have taken of the fruit of the land;' and the days `are' days of the first-fruits of grapes.
field: 4013021
4
13
21
And they go up and spy the land, from the wilderness of Zin unto Rehob at the going in to Hamath;
field: 4013022
4
13
22
and they go up by the south, and come in unto Hebron, and there `are' Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, children of Anak (and Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt),
field: 4013023
4
13
23
and they come in unto the brook of Eshcol, and cut down thence a branch and one cluster of grapes, and they bear it on a staff by two, also `some' of the pomegranates, and of the figs.
field: 4013024
4
13
24
That place hath `one' called Brook of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the sons of Israel cut from thence.
field: 4013025
4
13
25
And they turn back from spying the land at the end of forty days.
field: 4013026
4
13
26
And they go and come in unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto all the company of the sons of Israel, unto the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and they bring them and all the company back word, and shew them the fruit of the land.
field: 4013027
4
13
27
And they recount to him, and say, `We came in unto the land whither thou hast sent us, and also it `is' flowing with milk and honey -- and this `is' its fruit;
field: 4013028
4
13
28
only, surely the people which is dwelling in the land `is' strong; and the cities are fenced, very great; and also children of Anak we have seen there.

29
Amalek is dwelling in the land of the south, and the Hittite, and the Jebusite, and the Amorite is dwelling in the hill country, and the Canaanite is dwelling by the sea, and by the side of the Jordan.'

And Caleb stilleth the people concerning Moses, and saith, `Let us certainly go up -- and we have possessed it; for we are thoroughly able for it.'
field: 4013031
4
13
31
And the men who have gone up with him said, `We are not able to go up against the people, for it `is' stronger than we;'
field: 4013032
4
13
32
and they bring out an evil account of the land which they have spied unto the sons of Israel, saying, `The land into which we passed over to spy it, is a land eating up its inhabitants; and all the people whom we saw in its midst `are' men of stature;
field: 4013033
4
13
33
and there we saw the Nephilim, sons of Anak, of the Nephilim; and we are in our own eyes as grasshoppers; and so we were in their eyes.'
field: 4014001
4
14
1
And all the company lifteth up and give forth their voice, and the people weep during that night;
field: 4014002
4
14
2
and all the sons of Israel murmur against Moses, and against Aaron, and all the company say unto them, `O that we had died in the land of Egypt, or in this wilderness, O that we had died!

4
14
3
and why is Jehovah bringing us in unto this land to fall by the sword? our wives and our infants are become a prey; is it not good for us to turn back to Egypt?'

4
14
4
And they say one unto another, `Let us appoint a head, and turn back to Egypt.'
field: 4014005
4
14
5
And Moses falleth -- Aaron also -- on their faces, before all the assembly of the company of the sons of Israel.
field: 4014006
4
14
6
And Joshua son of Nun, and Caleb son of Jephunneh, of those spying the land, have rent their garments,
field: 4014007
4
14
7
and they speak unto all the company of the sons of Israel, saying, `The land into which we have passed over to spy it, `is' a very very good land;
field: 4014008
4
14
8
if Jehovah hath delighted in us, then He hath brought us in unto this land, and hath given it to us, a land which is flowing with milk and honey;

4
14
9
only, against Jehovah rebel not ye: and ye, fear not ye the people of the land, for our bread they `are'; their defence hath turned aside from off them, and Jehovah `is' with us; fear them not.'

10
And all the company say to stone them with stones, and the honour of Jehovah hath appeared in the tent of meeting unto all the sons of Israel.
field: 4014011
4
14
11
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Until when doth this people despise Me? and until when do they not believe in Me, for all the signs which I have done in its midst?
field: 4014012
4
14
12
I smite it with pestilence, and dispossess it, and make thee become a nation greater and mightier than it.'
field: 4014013
4
14
13
And Moses saith unto Jehovah, `Then have the Egyptians heard! for Thou hast brought up with Thy power this people out of their midst,

4
14
14
and they have said `it' unto the inhabitant of this land, they have heard that Thou, Jehovah, `art' in the midst of this people, that eye to eye Thou art seen -- O Jehovah, and Thy cloud is standing over them, -- and in a pillar of cloud Thou art going before them by day, and in a pillar of fire by night.

`And Thou hast put to death this people as one man, and the nations who have heard Thy fame have spoken, saying,

From Jehovah's want of ability to bring in this people unto the land which He hath sworn to them -- He doth slaughter them in the wilderness.

`And now, let, I pray Thee, the power of my Lord be great, as Thou hast spoken, saying:

Jehovah `is' slow to anger, and of great kindness; bearing away iniquity and transgression, and not entirely acquitting, charging iniquity of fathers on sons, on a third `generation', and on a fourth; --

4
14
19
forgive, I pray Thee, the iniquity of this people, according to the greatness of Thy kindness, and as Thou hast borne with this people from Egypt, even until now.'

And Jehovah saith, `I have forgiven, according to thy word;

and yet, I live -- and it is filled -- the whole earth -- `with' the honour of Jehovah;

for all the men who are seeing My honour, and My signs, which I have done in Egypt, and in the wilderness, and try Me these ten times, and have not hearkened to My voice --

23
they see not the land which I have sworn to their fathers, yea, none of those despising Me see it;

I `am' Jehovah, I have spoken; if I do not this to all this evil company who are meeting against me; -- in this wilderness they are consumed, and there they die.'
field: 4014036
4
14
36
And the men whom Moses hath sent to spy the land, and they turn back and cause all the company to murmur against him, by bringing out an evil account concerning the land,
field: 4014037
4
14
37
even the men bringing out an evil account of the land die by the plague before Jehovah;
field: 4014038
4
14
38
and Joshua son of Nun, and Caleb son of Jephunneh, have lived of those men who go to spy out the land.
field: 4014039
4
14
39
And Moses speaketh these words unto all the sons of Israel, and the people mourn exceedingly,
field: 4014040
4
14
40
and they rise early in the morning, and go up unto the top of the mountain, saying, `Here we `are', and we have come up unto the place which Jehovah hath spoken of, for we have sinned.'
field: 4014041
4
14
41
And Moses saith, `Why `is' this? -- ye are transgressing the command of Jehovah, and it doth not prosper;
field: 4014042
4
14
42
go not up, for Jehovah is not in your midst, and ye are not smitten before your enemies;
field: 4014043
4
14
43
for the Amalekite and the Canaanite `are' there before you, and ye have fallen by the sword, because that ye have turned back from after Jehovah, and Jehovah is not with you.'
field: 4014044
4
14
44
And they presume to go up unto the top of the mountain, and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah and Moses have not departed out of the midst of the camp.
field: 4014045
4
14
45
And the Amalekite and the Canaanite who are dwelling in that mountain come down and smite them, and beat them down -- unto Hormah.
field: 4015001
4
15
1
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4015002
4
15
2
`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye come in unto the land of your dwellings, which I am giving to you,
field: 4015003
4
15
3
then ye have prepared a fire-offering to Jehovah, a burnt-offering, or a sacrifice, at separating a vow or free-will-offering, or in your appointed things, to make a sweet fragrance to Jehovah, out of the herd, or out of the flock.
field: 4015004
4
15
4
`And he who is bringing near his offering to Jehovah hath brought near a present of flour, a tenth deal, mixed with a fourth of the hin of oil;
field: 4015005
4
15
5
and wine for a libation, a fourth of the hin thou dost prepare for the burnt-offering or for a sacrifice, for the one lamb;
field: 4015006
4
15
6
or for a ram thou dost prepare a present of flour, two-tenth deals, mixed with oil, a third of the hin;
field: 4015007
4
15
7
and wine for a libation, a third part of the hin, thou dost bring near -- a sweet fragrance to Jehovah.
field: 4015008
4
15
8
`And when thou makest a son of the herd a burnt-offering or a sacrifice, at separating a vow or peace-offerings to Jehovah,
field: 4015009
4
15
9
then he hath brought near for the son of the herd a present of flour, three-tenth deals, mixed with oil, a half of the hin;
field: 4015010
4
15
10
and wine thou bringest near for a libation, a half of the hin -- a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah;
field: 4015011
4
15
11
thus it is done for the one ox, or for the one ram, or for a lamb of the sheep or of the goats.
field: 4015012
4
15
12
`According to the number that ye prepare, so ye do to each, according to their number;
field: 4015013
4
15
13
every native doth thus with these, at bringing near a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah;
field: 4015014
4
15
14
and when a sojourner sojourneth with you, or whoso `is' in your midst to your generations, and he hath made a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah, as ye do so he doth.
field: 4015015
4
15
15
`One statute is for you of the congregation and for the sojourner who is sojourning, a statute age-during to your generations: as ye `are' so is the sojourner before Jehovah;
field: 4015016
4
15
16
one law and one ordinance is to you and to the sojourner who is sojourning with you.'
field: 4015017
4
15
17
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4015018
4
15
18
`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, In your coming in unto the land whither I am bringing you in,
field: 4015019
4
15
19
then it hath been, in your eating of the bread of the land, ye heave up a heave-offering to Jehovah;
field: 4015020
4
15
20
the beginning of your dough a cake ye heave up -- a heave-offering; as the heave-offering of a threshing-floor, so ye do heave it.
field: 4015021
4
15
21
Of the beginning of your dough ye do give to Jehovah a heave-offering -- to your generations.
field: 4015022
4
15
22
`And when ye err, and do not all these commands which Jehovah hath spoken unto Moses,
field: 4015023
4
15
23
the whole that Jehovah hath charged upon you by the hand of Moses, from the day that Jehovah hath commanded, and henceforth, to your generations,
field: 4015024
4
15
24
then it hath been, if from the eyes of the company it hath been done in ignorance, that all the company have prepared one bullock, a son of the herd, for a burnt-offering, for sweet fragrance to Jehovah, and its present, and its libation, according to the ordinance, and one kid of the goats for a sin-offering.
field: 4015025
4
15
25
`And the priest hath made atonement for all the company of the sons of Israel, and it hath been forgiven them, for it `is' ignorance, and they -- they have brought in their offering, a fire-offering to Jehovah, even their sin-offering before Jehovah for their ignorance;
field: 4015026
4
15
26
and it hath been forgiven to all the company of the sons of Israel, and to the sojourner who is sojourning in their midst; for to all the company `it is done' in ignorance.
field: 4015027
4
15
27
`And if one person sin in ignorance, then he hath brought near a she-goat, daughter of a year, for a sin-offering;
field: 4015028
4
15
28
and the priest hath made atonement for the person who is erring, in his sinning in ignorance before Jehovah, by making atonement for him, and it hath been forgiven him;
field: 4015029
4
15
29
for the native among the sons of Israel, and for the sojourner who is sojourning in their midst -- one law is to you, for him who is doing `anything' through ignorance.
field: 4015030
4
15
30
`And the person who doth `aught' with a high hand -- of the native or of the sojourner -- Jehovah he is reviling, and that person hath been cut off from the midst of his people;
field: 4015031
4
15
31
because the word of Jehovah he despised, and His command hath broken -- that person is certainly cut off; his iniquity `is' on him.'
field: 4015032
4
15
32
And the sons of Israel are in the wilderness, and they find a man gathering wood on the sabbath-day,
field: 4015033
4
15
33
and those finding him gathering wood bring him near unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto all the company,
field: 4015034
4
15
34
and they place him in ward, for it `is' not explained what is `to be' done to him.
field: 4015035
4
15
35
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `The man is certainly put to death, all the company stoning him with stones, at the outside of the camp.'
field: 4015036
4
15
36
And all the company bring him out unto the outside of the camp, and stone him with stones, and he dieth, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
field: 4015037
4
15
37
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4015038
4
15
38
`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, and they have made for themselves fringes on the skirts of their garments, to their generations, and they have put on the fringe of the skirt a ribbon of blue,
field: 4015039
4
15
39
and it hath been to you for a fringe, and ye have seen it, and have remembered all the commands of Jehovah, and have done them, and ye search not after your heart, and after your eyes, after which ye are going a-whoring;
field: 4015040
4
15
40
so that ye remember and have done all My commands, and ye have been holy to your God;
field: 4015041

41
I `am' Jehovah your God, who hath brought you out from the land of Egypt to become your God; I, Jehovah, `am' your God.'

And Korah, son of Izhar, son of Kohath, son of Levi, taketh both Dathan and Abiram sons of Eliab, and On son of Peleth, sons of Reuben,
field: 4016002
4
16
2
and they rise up before Moses, with men of the sons of Israel, two hundred and fifty, princes of the company, called of the convention, men of name,
field: 4016003
4
16
3
and they are assembled against Moses and against Aaron, and say unto them, `Enough of you! for all the company -- all of them `are' holy, and in their midst `is' Jehovah; and wherefore do ye lift yourselves up above the assembly of Jehovah?'
field: 4016004
4
16
4
And Moses heareth, and falleth on his face,
field: 4016005
4
16
5
and he speaketh unto Korah, and unto all his company, saying, `Morning! -- and Jehovah is knowing those who are his, and him who is holy, and hath brought near unto Him; even him whom He doth fix on He bringeth near unto Him.
field: 4016006
4
16
6
This do: take to yourselves censers, Korah, and all his company,
field: 4016007
4
16
7
and put in them fire, and put on them perfume, before Jehovah to-morrow, and it hath been, the man whom Jehovah chooseth, he `is' the holy one; -- enough of you, sons of Levi.'
field: 4016008
4
16
8
And Moses saith unto Korah, `Hear ye, I pray you, sons of Levi;
field: 4016009
4
16
9
is it little to you that the God of Israel hath separated you from the company of Israel to bring you near unto Himself, to do the service of the tabernacle of Jehovah, and to stand before the company to serve them? --
field: 4016010
4
16
10
yea, He doth bring thee near, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee -- and ye have sought also the priesthood!
field: 4016011
4
16
11
Therefore, thou and all thy company who are met `are' against Jehovah; and Aaron, what `is' he, that ye murmur against him?'
field: 4016012
4
16
12
And Moses sendeth to call for Dathan and for Abiram sons of Eliab, and they say, `We do not come up;
field: 4016013
4
16
13
is it little that thou hast brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey to put us to death in a wilderness that thou also certainly makest thyself prince over us?
field: 4016014
4
16
14
Yea, unto a land flowing with milk and honey thou hast not brought us in, nor dost thou give to us an inheritance of field and vineyard; the eyes of these men dost thou pick out? we do not come up.'
field: 4016015
4
16
15
And it is very displeasing to Moses, and he saith unto Jehovah, `Turn not Thou unto their present; not one ass from them have I taken, nor have I afflicted one of them.'
field: 4016016
4
16
16
And Moses saith unto Korah, `Thou and all thy company, be ye before Jehovah, thou, and they, and Aaron, to-morrow;
field: 4016017
4
16
17
and take ye each his censer, and ye have put on them perfume, and brought near before Jehovah, each his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; and thou and Aaron, each his censer.'
field: 4016018
4
16
18
And they take each his censer, and put on them fire, and lay on them perfume, and they stand at the opening of the tent of meeting, with Moses and Aaron.
field: 4016019
4
16
19
And Korah assembleth against them all the company unto the opening of the tent of meeting, and the honour of Jehovah is seen by all the company.
field: 4016020
4
16
20
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
field: 4016021
4
16
21
`Be ye separated from the midst of this company, and I consume them in a moment;'
field: 4016022
4
16
22
and they fall on their faces, and say, `God, God of the spirits of all flesh -- the one man sinneth, and against all the company Thou art wroth!'
field: 4016023
4
16
23
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4016024
4
16
24
`Speak unto the company, saying, Go ye up from round about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.'
field: 4016025
4
16
25
And Moses riseth, and goeth unto Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel go after him,
field: 4016026
4
16
26
and he speaketh unto the company, saying, `Turn aside, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and come not against anything that they have, lest ye be consumed in all their sins.'
field: 4016027
4
16
27
And they go up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan and Abiram, from round about, and Dathan, and Abiram have come out, standing at the opening of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their infants.
field: 4016028
4
16
28
And Moses saith, `By this ye do know that Jehovah hath sent me to do all these works, that `they are' not from my own heart;
field: 4016029
4
16
29
if according to the death of all men these die -- or the charge of all men is charged upon them -- Jehovah hath not sent me;
field: 4016030
4
16
30
and if a strange thing Jehovah do, and the ground hath opened her mouth and swallowed them, and all that they have, and they have gone down alive to Sheol -- then ye have known that these men have despised Jehovah.'
field: 4016031
4
16
31
And it cometh to pass at his finishing speaking all these words, that the ground which `is' under them cleaveth,
field: 4016032
4
16
32
and the earth openeth her mouth, and swalloweth them, and their houses, and all the men who `are' for Korah, and all the goods,
field: 4016033
4
16
33
and they go down, they, and all that they have, alive to Sheol, and the earth closeth over them, and they perish from the midst of the assembly;
field: 4016034
4
16
34
and all Israel who `are' round about them have fled at their voice, for they said, `Lest the earth swallow us;'
field: 4016035
4
16
35
and fire hath come out from Jehovah, and consumeth the two hundred and fifty men bringing near the perfume.
field: 4016036
4
16
36
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4016037
4
16
37
`Say unto Eleazar son of Aaron the priest, and he lifteth up the censers from the midst of the burning, and the fire scatter thou yonder, for they have been hallowed,
field: 4016038
4
16
38
`even' the censers of these sinners against their own souls; and they have made them spread-out plates, a covering for the altar, for they have brought them near before Jehovah, and they are hallowed; and they are become a sign to the sons of Israel.'
field: 4016039
4
16
39
And Eleazar the priest taketh the brazen censers which they who are burnt had brought near, and they spread them out, a covering for the altar --
field: 4016040
4
16
40
a memorial to the sons of Israel, so that a stranger who is not of the seed of Aaron doth not draw near to make a perfume before Jehovah, and is not as Korah, and as his company, -- as Jehovah hath spoken by the hand of Moses to him.
field: 4016041
4
16
41
And all the company of the sons of Israel murmur, on the morrow, against Moses and against Aaron, saying, `Ye -- ye have put to death the people of Jehovah.'
field: 4016042
4
16
42
And it cometh to pass, in the company being assembled against Moses and against Aaron, that they turn towards the tent of meeting, and lo, the cloud hath covered it, and the honour of Jehovah is seen;
field: 4016043
4
16
43
and Moses cometh -- Aaron also -- unto the front of the tent of meeting.
field: 4016044
4
16
44
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4016045
4
16
45
`Get you up from the midst of this company, and I consume them in a moment;' and they fall on their faces,
field: 4016046
4
16
46
and Moses saith unto Aaron, `Take the censer, and put on it fire from off the altar, and place perfume, and go, hasten unto the company, and make atonement for them, for the wrath hath gone out from the presence of Jehovah -- the plague hath begun.'
field: 4016047
4
16
47
And Aaron taketh as Moses hath spoken, and runneth unto the midst of the assembly, and lo, the plague hath begun among the people; and he giveth the perfume, and maketh atonement for the people,
field: 4016048
4
16
48
and standeth between the dead and the living, and the plague is restrained;
field: 4016049
4
16
49
and those who die by the plague are fourteen thousand and seven hundred, apart from those who die for the matter of Korah;
field: 4016050
4
16
50
and Aaron turneth back unto Moses, unto the opening of the tent of meeting, and the plague hath been restrained.
field: 4017001
4
17
1
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4017002
4
17
2
`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and take from them each a rod, for a father's house, from all their princes, for the house of their fathers, twelve rods; the name of each thou dost write on his rod,
field: 4017003
4
17
3
and Aaron's name thou dost write on the tribe of Levi; for one rod `is' for the head of their fathers' house:
field: 4017004
4
17
4
and thou hast placed them in the tent of meeting, before the testimony, where I meet with you.
field: 4017005
4
17
5
`And it hath come to pass, the man's rod on whom I fix doth flourish, and I have caused to cease from off me the murmurings of the sons of Israel, which they are murmuring against you.'
field: 4017006
4
17
6
And Moses speaketh unto the sons of Israel, and all their princes give unto him one rod for a prince, one rod for a prince, for their fathers' house, twelve rods, and the rod of Aaron `is' in the midst of their rods;
field: 4017007
4
17
7
and Moses placeth the rods before Jehovah, in the tent of the testimony.
field: 4017008
4
17
8
And it cometh to pass, on the morrow, that Moses goeth in unto the tent of the testimony, and lo, the rod of Aaron hath flourished for the house of Levi, and is bringing out flourishing, and doth blossom blossoms, and doth produce almonds;
field: 4017009
4
17
9
and Moses bringeth out all the rods from before Jehovah, unto all the sons of Israel, and they look, and take each his rod.
field: 4017010
4
17
10
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Put back the rod of Aaron, before the testimony, for a charge, for a sign to the sons of rebellion, and thou dost remove their murmurings from off me, and they do not die;'
field: 4017011
4
17
11
and Moses doth as Jehovah hath commanded him; so he hath done.
field: 4017012
4
17
12
And the sons of Israel speak unto Moses, saying, `Lo, we have expired; we have perished; we have all of us perished;
field: 4017013
4
17
13
any who is at all drawing near unto the tabernacle of Jehovah dieth; have we not been consumed -- to expire?'
field: 4018001
4
18
1
And Jehovah saith unto Aaron, `Thou, and thy sons, and the house of thy father with thee, do bear the iniquity of the sanctuary; and thou, and thy sons with thee, do bear the iniquity of your priesthood;
field: 4018002
4
18

and also thy brethren, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy father, bring near with thee, and they are joined unto thee, and serve thee, even thou and thy sons with thee, before the tent of the testimony.

4
18
3
`And they have kept thy charge, and the charge of all the tent; only, unto the vessels of the sanctuary and unto the altar they do not come near, and they die not, either they or you;

4
18
4
and they have been joined unto thee, and have kept the charge of the tent of meeting, for all the service of the tent; and a stranger doth not come near unto you;
field: 4018005
4
18
5
and ye have kept the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar, and there is no more wrath against the sons of Israel.
field: 4018006
4
18
6
`And I, lo, I have taken your brethren the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel; to you a gift they are given by Jehovah, to do the service of the tent of meeting;

7
and thou, and thy sons with thee, do keep your priesthood, for everything of the altar, and within the vail, and ye have served; a service of gift I make your priesthood; and the stranger who is coming near is put to death.'
field: 4018008
4
18
8
And Jehovah speaketh unto Aaron: `And I, lo, I have given to thee the charge of My heave-offerings, of all the hallowed things of the sons of Israel -- to thee I have given them for the anointing, and to thy sons, by a statute age-during.

all the best of the oil, and all the best of the new wine, and wheat -- their first-`fruits' which they give to Jehovah -- to thee I have given them.

all the heave-offerings of the holy things which the sons of Israel lift up to Jehovah I have given to thee and to thy sons, and to thy daughters with thee, by a statute age-during, a covenant of salt, age-during it `is' before Jehovah, to thee and to thy seed with thee.'

And Jehovah saith unto Aaron, `In their land thou dost not inherit, and a portion thou hast not in their midst: I `am' thy portion, and thine inheritance in the midst of the sons of Israel;
field: 4018021
4
18
21
and to the sons of Levi, lo, I have given all the tenth in Israel for inheritance in exchange for their service which they are serving -- the service of the tent of meeting.
field: 4018022

18
22
`And the sons of Israel come no more near unto the tent of meeting, to bear sin, to die,
field: 4018023

18
23
and the Levites have done the service of the tent of meeting, and they -- they bear their iniquity; a statute age-during to your generations, that in the midst of the sons of Israel they have no inheritance;
field: 4018024
4
18
24
but the tithe of the sons of Israel which they lift up to Jehovah, a heave-offering, I have given to the Levites for inheritance; therefore I have said of them, In the midst of the sons of Israel they have no inheritance.'
field: 4018025
4
18
25
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4018026
4
18
26
`And unto the Levites thou dost speak; and thou hast said unto them, When ye take from the sons of Israel the tithe which I have given to you from them, for your inheritance, then ye have lifted up from it the heave-offering of Jehovah, a tithe of the tithe;
field: 4018027
4
18
27
and your heave-offering hath been reckoned to you as corn from the threshing-floor, and as fulness from the wine-vat;
field: 4018028
4
18
28
so ye do lift up -- ye also -- the heave-offering of Jehovah from all your tithes which ye receive from the sons of Israel; and ye have given from it the heave-offering of Jehovah to Aaron the priest;
field: 4018029
4
18
29
out of all your gifts ye do lift up the whole heave-offering of Jehovah; out of all its fat, -- its hallowed part -- out of it.
field: 4018030
4
18
30
`And thou hast said unto them, In your lifting up its fat out of it, then it hath been reckoned to the Levites, as increase of a threshing-floor, and as increase of a wine-vat;
field: 4018031
4
18
31
and ye have eaten it in every place, ye and your households, for it `is' your hire in exchange for your service in the tent of meeting;
field: 4018032
4
18
32
and ye bear no sin for it, in your lifting up its fat out of it, and the holy things of the sons of Israel ye do not pollute, and ye die not.'

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, and unto Aaron, saying,

`This `is' a statute of the law which Jehovah hath commanded, saying, Speak unto the sons of Israel, and they bring unto thee a red cow, a perfect one, in which there is no blemish, on which no yoke hath gone up;

4
19
3
and ye have given it unto Eleazar the priest, and he hath brought it out unto the outside of the camp, and hath slaughtered it before him.
field: 4019004

`And Eleazar the priest hath taken of its blood with his finger, and hath sprinkled over-against the front of the tent of meeting of her blood seven times;

5
and `one' hath burnt the cow before his eyes; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, besides her dung, he doth burn;
field: 4019006
4

6
and the priest hath taken cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and hath cast unto the midst of the burning of the cow;
field: 4019007

and the priest hath washed his garments, and hath bathed his flesh with water, and afterwards doth come in unto the camp, and the priest is unclean till the evening;

Any one who is coming against the dead, against the body of man who dieth, and cleanseth not himself -- the tabernacle of Jehovah he hath defiled, and that person hath been cut off from Israel, for water of separation is not sprinkled upon him; he is unclean; his uncleanness `is' still upon him.

`This `is' the law, when a man dieth in a tent: every one who is coming in unto the tent, and all that `is' in the tent, is unclean seven days;

And there hath been no water for the company, and they are assembled against Moses, and against Aaron,

And Moses taketh the rod from before Jehovah, as He hath commanded him,

and Moses and Aaron assemble the assembly unto the front of the rock, and he saith to them, `Hear, I pray you, O rebels, from this rock do we bring out to you water?'
field: 4020011

11
and Moses lifteth up his hand, and smiteth the rock with his rod twice; and much water cometh out, and the company drink, also their beasts.
field: 4020012
4

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, and unto Aaron, `Because ye have not believed in Me to sanctify Me before the eyes of the sons of Israel, therefore ye do not bring in this assembly unto the land which I have given to them.'
field: 4020013
4

These `are' waters of Meribah, because the sons of Israel have `striven' with Jehovah, and He is sanctified upon them.

And Moses sendeth messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, `Thus said thy brother Israel, Thou -- thou hast known all the travail which hath found us;

15
that our fathers go down to Egypt, and we dwell in Egypt many days, and the Egyptians do evil to us and to our fathers;

and we cry unto Jehovah, and He heareth our voice, and sendeth a messenger, and is bringing us out of Egypt; and lo, we `are' in Kadesh, a city `in' the extremity of thy border.
field: 4020017
4
20
17
Let us pass over, we pray thee, through thy land; we pass not over through a field, or through a vineyard, nor do we drink waters of a well; the way of the king we go, we turn not aside -- right or left -- till that we pass over thy border.'
field: 4020018
4
20
18
And Edom saith unto him, `Thou dost not pass over through me, lest with sword I come out to meet thee.'
field: 4020019
4
20
19
And the sons of Israel say unto him, `In the highway we go, and if of thy waters we drink -- I and my cattle -- then I have given their price; only (it is nothing) on my feet I pass over.'
field: 4020020
4
20
20
And he saith, `Thou dost not pass over;' and Edom cometh out to meet him with much people, and with a strong hand;

and Edom refuseth to suffer Israel to pass over through his border, and Israel turneth aside from off him.

22
And the sons of Israel, the whole company, journey from Kadesh, and come in unto mount Hor,
field: 4020023
4
20
23
and Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron in mount Hor, on the border of the land of Edom, saying,
field: 4020024
4
20
24
`Aaron is gathered unto his people, for he doth not go in unto the land which I have given to the sons of Israel, because that ye provoked My mouth at the waters of Meribah.

`Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and cause them to go up mount Hor,

and strip Aaron of his garments, and thou hast clothed `with' them Eleazar his son, and Aaron is gathered, and doth die there.'

And Moses doth as Jehovah hath commanded, and they go up unto mount Hor before the eyes of all the company,
field: 4020028
4
20
28
and Moses strippeth Aaron of his garments, and clotheth with them Eleazar his son, and Aaron dieth there on the top of the mount; and Moses cometh down -- Eleazar also -- from the mount,
field: 4020029

and all the company see that Aaron hath expired, and they bewail Aaron thirty days -- all the house of Israel.

2
And Israel voweth a vow to Jehovah, and saith, `If Thou dost certainly give this people into my hand, then I have devoted their cities;'

and Jehovah hearkeneth to the voice of Israel, and giveth up the Canaanite, and he devoteth them and their cities, and calleth the name of the place Hormah.
field: 4021004

4
And they journey from mount Hor, the way of the Red Sea, to compass the land of Edom, and the soul of the people is short in the way,

4

5
and the people speak against God, and against Moses, `Why hast thou brought us up out of Egypt to die in a wilderness? for there is no bread, and there is no water, and our soul hath been weary of this light bread.'

And Jehovah sendeth among the people the burning serpents, and they bite the people, and much people of Israel die;

21
7
and the people come in unto Moses and say, `We have sinned, for we have spoken against Jehovah, and against thee; pray unto Jehovah, and He doth turn aside from us the serpent;' and Moses prayeth in behalf of the people.
field: 4021008
4
21
8
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Make for thee a burning `serpent', and set it on an ensign; and it hath been, every one who is bitten and hath seen it -- he hath lived.
field: 4021009
4
21
9
And Moses maketh a serpent of brass, and setteth it on the ensign, and it hath been, if the serpent hath bitten any man, and he hath looked expectingly unto the serpent of brass -- he hath lived.

And the sons of Israel journey, and encamp in Oboth.
field: 4021011
4
21

And they journey from Oboth, and encamp in Ije-Abarim, in the wilderness that `is' on the front of Moab, at the rising of the sun.
field: 4021012
4
21
12
From thence they have journeyed, and encamp in the valley of Zared.
field: 4021013
4
21
13
From thence they have journeyed, and encamp beyond Arnon, which `is' in the wilderness which is coming out of the border of the Amorite, for Arnon `is' the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorite;
field: 4021014
4
21
14
therefore it is said in a book, `The wars of Jehovah,' -- `Waheb in Suphah, And the brooks of Arnon;
field: 4021015
4
21
15
And the spring of the brooks, Which turned aside to the dwelling of Ar, And hath leaned to the border of Moab.'
field: 4021016
4
21
16
And from thence `they journeyed' to Beer; it `is' the well `concerning' which Jehovah said to Moses, `Gather the people, and I give to them -- water.'
field: 4021017
4
21
17
Then singeth Israel this song, concerning the well -- they have answered to it:
field: 4021018
4
21
18
`A well -- digged it have princes, Prepared it have nobles of the people, With the lawgiver, with their staves.' And from the wilderness `they journeyed' to Mattanah,
field: 4021019
4
21
19
and from Mattanah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
field: 4021020
4
21
20
and from Bamoth in the valley which `is' in the field of Moab `to' the top of Pisgah, which hath looked on the front of the wilderness.
field: 4021021
4
21
21
And Israel sendeth messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorite, saying,
field: 4021022
4
21
22
`Let me pass through thy land, we do not turn aside into a field, or into a vineyard, we do not drink waters of a well; in the king's way we go, till that we pass over thy border.'
field: 4021023
4
21
23
And Sihon hath not suffered Israel to pass through his border, and Sihon gathereth all his people, and cometh out to meet Israel into the wilderness, and cometh in to Jahaz, and fighteth against Israel.
field: 4021024
4
21
24
And Israel smiteth him by the mouth of the sword, and possesseth his land from Arnon unto Jabbok -- unto the sons of Ammon; for the border of the sons of Ammon `is' strong.
field: 4021025
4
21
25
And Israel taketh all these cities, and Israel dwelleth in all the cities of the Amorite, in Heshbon, and in all its villages;
field: 4021026
4
21
26
for Heshbon is a city of Sihon king of the Amorite, and he hath fought against the former king of Moab, and taketh all his land out of his hand, unto Arnon;
field: 4021027
4
21
27
therefore those using similes say -- `Enter ye Heshbon, Let the city of Sihon be built and ready,
field: 4021028
4
21
28
For fire hath gone out from Heshbon, A flame from the city of Sihon, It hath consumed Ar of Moab, Owners of the high places of Arnon.
field: 4021029

21
29
Wo to thee, O Moab, Thou hast perished, O people of Chemosh, He hath given his sons who escape -- Also his daughters -- Into captivity, to a king of the Amorite -- Sihon!

4
21
30
And we shoot them, Perished hath Heshbon unto Dibon, And we make desolate unto Nophah, Which `is' unto Medeba.'

4
21
31
And Israel dwelleth in the land of the Amorite,
field: 4021032
4
21
32
and Moses sendeth to spy out Jaazer, and they capture its villages, and dispossess the Amorite who `is' there,
field: 4021033
4
21
33
and turn and go up the way of Bashan, and Og king of Bashan cometh out to meet them, he and all his people, to battle, `at' Edrei.
field: 4021034
4
21
34
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Fear him not, for into thy hand I have given him, and all his people, and his land, and thou hast done to him as thou hast done to Sihon king of the Amorite, who is dwelling in Heshbon.'
field: 4021035
4
21
35
And they smite him, and his sons, and all his people, until he hath not left to him a remnant, and they possess his land.
field: 4022001
4
22
1
And the sons of Israel journey and encamp in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan, `by' Jericho.
field: 4022002
4
22
2
And Balak son of Zippor seeth all that Israel hath done to the Amorite,
field: 4022003
4
22
3
and Moab is exceedingly afraid of the presence of the people, for it `is' numerous; and Moab is vexed by the presence of the sons of Israel,
field: 4022004
4
22
4
and Moab saith unto the elders of Midian, `Now doth the assembly lick up all that is round about us, as the ox licketh up the green thing of the field.' And Balak son of Zippor `is' king of Moab at that time,
field: 4022005
4
22
5
and he sendeth messengers unto Balaam son of Beor, to Pethor, which `is' by the River of the land of the sons of his people, to call for him, saying, `Lo, a people hath come out of Egypt; lo, it hath covered the eye of the land, and it is abiding over-against me;

4
22
6
and now, come, I pray thee, curse for me this people, for it `is' mightier than I; it may be I prevail -- we smite it -- and I cast it out from the land; for I have known -- that which thou blessest is blessed, and that which thou cursest is cursed.'
field: 4022007
4
22
7
And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian go, and divinations in their hand, and they come in unto Balaam, and speak unto him the words of Balak,
field: 4022008
4
22
8
and he saith unto them, `Lodge here to-night, and I have brought you back word, as Jehovah speaketh unto me;' and the princes of Moab abide with Balaam.
field: 4022009
4
22
9
And God cometh in unto Balaam, and saith, `Who `are' these men with thee?'
field: 4022010
4
22
10
And Balaam saith unto God, `Balak, son of Zippor, king of Moab, hath sent unto me:

22
11
Lo, the people that is coming out from Egypt and covereth the eye of the land, -- now come, pierce it for me; it may be I am able to fight against it, and have cast it out;'

4
22
12
and God saith unto Balaam, `Thou dost not go with them; thou dost not curse the people; for it `is' blessed.'
field: 4022013
4
22
13
And Balaam riseth in the morning, and saith unto the princes of Balak, `Go unto your land, for Jehovah is refusing to suffer me to go with you;'
field: 4022014
4
22
14
and the princes of Moab rise, and come in unto Balak, and say, `Balaam is refusing to come with us.'
field: 4022015
4
22
15
And Balak addeth yet to send princes, more numerous and honoured than these,
field: 4022016
4
22
16
and they come in unto Balaam, and say to him, `Thus said Balak son of Zippor, Be not, I pray thee, withheld from coming unto me,

4
22
17
for very greatly I honour thee, and all that thou sayest unto me I do; and come, I pray thee, pierce for me this people.'
field: 4022018
4
22
18
And Balaam answereth and saith unto the servants of Balak, `If Balak doth give to me the fulness of his house of silver and gold, I am not able to pass over the command of Jehovah my God, to do a little or a great thing;

and, now, abide, I pray you, in this `place', you also, to-night; and I know what Jehovah is adding to speak with me.'
field: 4022020

And God cometh in unto Balaam, by night, and saith to him, `If to call for thee the men have come, rise, go with them, and only the thing which I speak unto thee -- it thou dost do.'

And Balaam riseth in the morning, and saddleth his ass, and goeth with the princes of Moab,

22
and the anger of God burneth because he is going, and a messenger of Jehovah stationeth himself in the way for an adversary to him, and he is riding on his ass, and two of his servants `are' with him,

22
23
and the ass seeth the messenger of Jehovah standing in the way, and his drawn sword in his hand, and the ass turneth aside out of the way, and goeth into a field, and Balaam smiteth the ass to turn it aside into the way.
field: 4022024

24
And the messenger of Jehovah standeth in a narrow path of the vineyards -- a wall on this `side' and a wall on that --
field: 4022025

22
25
and the ass seeth the messenger of Jehovah, and is pressed unto the wall, and presseth Balaam's foot unto the wall, and he addeth to smite her;

4
22
26
and the messenger of Jehovah addeth to pass over, and standeth in a strait place where there is no way to turn aside -- right or left --

and the ass seeth the messenger of Jehovah, and croucheth under Balaam, and the anger of Balaam burneth, and he smiteth the ass with a staff.

and the ass saith unto Balaam, `Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden since `I was' thine unto this day? have I at all been accustomed to do to thee thus?' and he saith, `No.'
field: 4022031

22
31
And Jehovah uncovereth the eyes of Balaam, and he seeeth the messenger of Jehovah standing in the way, and his drawn sword in his hand, and he boweth and doth obeisance, to his face;
field: 4022032
4
22
32
and the messenger of Jehovah saith unto him, `Wherefore hast thou smitten thine ass these three times? lo, I -- I have come out for an adversary, for `thy' way hath been perverse before me,
field: 4022033
4
22
33
and the ass seeth me, and turneth aside at my presence these three times; unless she had turned aside from my presence, surely now also, thee I had slain, and her kept alive.'
field: 4022034
4
22
34
And Balaam saith unto the messenger of Jehovah, `I have sinned, for I did not know that thou `art' standing to meet me in the way; and now, if evil in thine eyes -- I turn back by myself.'
field: 4022035
4

And the messenger of Jehovah saith unto Balaam, `Go with the men; and only the word which I speak unto thee -- it thou dost speak;' and Balaam goeth with the princes of Balak.

22
36
And Balak heareth that Balaam hath come, and goeth out to meet him, unto a city of Moab, which `is' on the border of Arnon, which `is' in the extremity of the border;

field: 4022038
4
22
38
And Balaam saith unto Balak, `Lo, I have come unto thee; now -- am I at all able to speak anything? the word which God setteth in my mouth -- it I do speak.'
field: 4022039
4

39
And Balaam goeth with Balak, and they come to Kirjath-Huzoth,

40
and Balak sacrificeth oxen and sheep, and sendeth to Balaam, and to the princes who `are' with him;

4
22
41
and it cometh to pass in the morning, that Balak taketh Balaam, and causeth him to go up the high places of Baal, and he seeth from thence the extremity of the people.

1
And Balaam saith unto Balak, `Build for me in this `place' seven altars, and make ready for me in this `place' seven bullocks and seven rams.'

2
And Balak doth as Balaam hath spoken, and Balak -- Balaam also -- offereth a bullock and a ram on the altar,
field: 4023003
4
23
3
and Balaam saith to Balak, `Station thyself by thy burnt-offering and I go on, it may be Jehovah doth come to meet me, and the thing which He sheweth me -- I have declared to thee;' and he goeth `to' a high place.
field: 4023004

And God cometh unto Balaam, and he saith unto Him, `The seven altars I have arranged, and I offer a bullock and a ram on the altar;'

and Jehovah putteth a word in the mouth of Balaam, and saith, `Turn back unto Balak, and thus thou dost speak.'

And he turneth back unto him, and lo, he is standing by his burnt-offering, he and all the princes of Moab.
field: 4023007
4

7
And he taketh up his simile, and saith: `From Aram he doth lead me -- Balak king of Moab; From mountains of the east: Come -- curse for me Jacob, And come -- be indignant `with' Israel.

Who hath counted the dust of Jacob, And the number of the fourth of Israel? Let me die the death of upright ones, And let my last end be like his!'

And Balak saith unto Balaam, `What hast thou done to me? to pierce mine enemies I have taken thee -- and lo, thou hast certainly blessed;'

23
12
and he answereth and saith, `That which Jehovah doth put in my mouth -- it do I not take heed to speak?'

51
These `are' numbered ones of the sons of Israel, six hundred thousand, and a thousand, seven hundred and thirty.
field: 4026052
4
26
52
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4026053
4
26
53
`To these is the land apportioned by inheritance, by the number of names;
field: 4026054
4
26
54
to the many thou dost increase their inheritance, and to the few thou dost diminish their inheritance; `to' each according to his numbered ones is given his inheritance.
field: 4026055
4
26
55
`Only by lot is the land apportioned, by the names of the tribes of their fathers they inherit;
field: 4026056
4
26
56
according to the lot is their inheritance apportioned between many and few.'
field: 4026057
4
26
57
And these `are' numbered ones of the Levite by their families: of Gershon `is' the family of the Gershonite; of Kohath the family of the Kohathite; of Merari the family of the Merarite.
field: 4026058
4
26
58
These `are' families of the Levite: the family of the Libnite, the family of the Hebronite, the family of the Mahlite, the family of the Mushite, the family of the Korathite. And Kohath hath begotten Amram,
field: 4026059
4
26
59
and the name of Amram's wife is Jochebed, daughter of Levi, whom `one' hath born to Levi in Egypt; and she beareth to Amram Aaron, and Moses, and Miriam their sister.
field: 4026060

And born to Aaron Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar;

and Nadab dieth -- Abihu also -- in their bringing near strange fire before Jehovah.
field: 4026062
4
26
62
And their numbered ones are three and twenty thousand, every male from a son of a month and upwards, for they have not numbered themselves in the midst of the sons of Israel; for an inheritance hath not been given to them in the midst of the sons of Israel.
field: 4026063
4
26
63
These `are' those numbered by Moses and Eleazar the priest, who have numbered the sons of Israel in the plains of Moab, by Jordan, `near' Jericho;
field: 4026064
4
26
64
and among these there hath not been a man of those numbered by Moses, and Aaron the priest, who numbered the sons of Israel in the wilderness of Sinai,
field: 4026065

field: 4027002
4
27
2
and stand before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes, and all the company, at the opening of the tent of meeting, saying:
field: 4027003
4
27
3
`Our father died in the wilderness, and he -- he was not in the midst of the company who were met together against Jehovah in the company of Korah, but for his own sin he died, and had no sons;
field: 4027004
4
27
4
why is the name of our father withdrawn from the midst of his family because he hath no son? give to us a possession in the midst of the brethren of our father;'
field: 4027005
4
27
5
and Moses bringeth near their cause before Jehovah.
field: 4027006
4
27
6
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4027007
4
27
7
`Rightly are the daughters of Zelophehad speaking; thou dost certainly give to them a possession of an inheritance in the midst of their father's brethren, and hast caused to pass over the inheritance of their father to them.
field: 4027008
4
27
8
`And unto the sons of Israel thou dost speak, saying, When a man dieth, and hath no son, then ye have caused his inheritance to pass over to his daughter;
field: 4027009
4
27
9
and if he have no daughter, then ye have given his inheritance to his brethren;
field: 4027010
4
27
10
and if he have no brethren, then ye have given his inheritance to his father's brethren;
field: 4027011
4
27
11
and if his father have no brethren, then ye have given his inheritance to his relation who is near unto him of his family, and he hath possessed it;' and it hath been to the sons of Israel for a statute of judgment, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
field: 4027012
4
27
12
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Go up unto this mount Abarim, and see the land which I have given to the sons of Israel;
field: 4027013
4
27
13
and thou hast seen it, and thou hast been gathered unto thy people, also thou, as Aaron thy brother hath been gathered,
field: 4027014
4
27
14
because ye provoked My mouth in the wilderness of Zin, in the strife of the company -- to sanctify Me at the waters before their eyes;' they `are' waters of Meribah, in Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin.
field: 4027015
4
27
15
And Moses speaketh unto Jehovah, saying,
field: 4027016
4
27
16
`Jehovah -- God of the spirits of all flesh -- appoint a man over the company,
field: 4027017
4
27
17
who goeth out before them, and who cometh in before them, and who taketh them out, and who bringeth them in, and the company of Jehovah is not as sheep which have no shepherd.'
field: 4027018
4
27
18
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Take to thee Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom `is' the Spirit, and thou hast laid thine hand upon him,
field: 4027019
4
27
19
and hast caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the company, and hast charged him before their eyes,

4

20
and hast put of thine honour upon him, so that all the company of the sons of Israel do hearken.
field: 4027021

27
21
`And before Eleazar the priest he standeth, and he hath asked for him by the judgment of the Lights before Jehovah; at His word they go out, and at His word they come in; he, and all the sons of Israel with him, even all the company.'
field: 4027022
4
27
22
And Moses doth as Jehovah hath commanded him, and taketh Joshua, and causeth him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the company,
field: 4027023
4
27
23
and layeth his hands upon him, and chargeth him, as Jehovah hath spoken by the hand of Moses.

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

`Command the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, My offering, My bread for My fire-offerings, My sweet fragrance, ye take heed to bring near to Me in its appointed season.

and Moses is wroth against the inspectors of the force, chiefs of the thousands, and chiefs of the hundreds, who are coming in from the host of the battle.
field: 4031015
4
31
15
And Moses saith unto them, `Have ye kept alive every female?
field: 4031016
4
31
16
lo, they -- they have been to the sons of Israel, through the word of Balaam, to cause a trespass against Jehovah in the matter of Peor, and the plague is in the company of Jehovah.
field: 4031017
4
31
17
`And now, slay ye every male among the infants, yea, every woman known of man by the lying of a male ye have slain;
field: 4031018
4
31
18
and all the infants among the women, who have not known the lying of a male, ye have kept alive for yourselves.
field: 4031019
4
31
19
`And ye, encamp ye at the outside of the camp seven days -- any who hath slain a person, and any who hath come against a pierced one, ye cleanse yourselves on the third day, and on the seventh day -- ye and your captives;
field: 4031020
4
31
20
and every garment, and every skin vessel, and every work of goats' `hair', and every wooden vessel, ye yourselves cleanse.'
field: 4031021
4
31
21
And Eleazar the priest saith unto the men of the host who go in to battle, `This `is' the statute of the law which Jehovah hath commanded Moses:
field: 4031022
4
31
22
only, the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
field: 4031023
4
31
23
every thing which may go into fire, ye cause to pass over through fire, and it hath been clean; only, with the water of separation it is cleansed, and all that may not go into fire, ye cause to pass over through water;
field: 4031024
4
31
24
and ye have washed your garments on the seventh day, and have been clean, and afterwards ye come in unto the camp.'
field: 4031025
4
31
25
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4031026
4
31
26
`Take up the sum of the prey of the captives, among man and among beast, thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the fathers of the company;
field: 4031027
4
31
27
and thou hast halved the prey between those handling the battle who go out to the host and all the company;
field: 4031028
4
31
28
and thou hast raised a tribute to Jehovah from the men of war, who go out to the host, one body out of five hundred, of man, and of the herd, and of the asses, and of the flock;
field: 4031029
4
31
29
from their half ye do take, and thou hast given to Eleazar the priest -- the heave-offering of Jehovah.
field: 4031030
4
31
30
`And from the sons of Israel's half thou dost take one possession out of fifty, of man, of the herd, of the asses, and of the flock, of all the cattle, and thou hast given them to the Levites keeping the charge of the tabernacle of Jehovah.'
field: 4031031
4
31
31
And Moses doth -- Eleazar the priest also -- as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
field: 4031032
4
31
32
And the prey, the residue of the spoil which the people of the host have spoiled, is of the flock six hundred thousand, and seventy thousand, and five thousand;
field: 4031033
4
31
33
and of the herd two and seventy thousand;
field: 4031034
4
31
34
and of asses one and sixty thousand;
field: 4031035
4
31
35
and of human beings -- of the women who have not known the lying of a male -- all the persons `are' two and thirty thousand.
field: 4031036
4
31
36
And the half -- the portion of those who go out into the host -- the number of the flock is three hundred thousand, and thirty thousand, and seven thousand and five hundred.
field: 4031037
4
31
37
And the tribute to Jehovah of the sheep is six hundred five and seventy;
field: 4031038
4
31
38
and the herd `is' six and thirty thousand, and their tribute to Jehovah `is' two and seventy;
field: 4031039
4
31
39
and the asses `are' thirty thousand and five hundred, and their tribute to Jehovah `is' one and sixty;
field: 4031040
4
31
40
and the human beings `are' sixteen thousand, and their tribute to Jehovah `is' two and thirty persons.
field: 4031041
4
31
41
And Moses giveth the tribute -- Jehovah's heave-offering -- to Eleazar the priest, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
field: 4031042
4
31
42
And of the sons of Israel's half, which Moses halved from the men who war --
field: 4031043
4
31
43
and the company's half is, of the flock three hundred thousand, and thirty thousand, seven thousand and five hundred;
field: 4031044
4
31
44
and of the herd six and thirty thousand;
field: 4031045
4
31
45
and of asses thirty thousand and five hundred;
field: 4031046
4
31
46
and of human beings sixteen thousand --
field: 4031047
4
31
47
Moses taketh from the sons of Israel's half the one possession from the fifty, of man and of beast, and giveth them to the Levites keeping the charge of the tabernacle of Jehovah, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
field: 4031048
4
31
48
And the inspectors whom the thousands of the host hath, (heads of the thousands and heads of the hundreds), draw near unto Moses,
field: 4031049
4
31
49
and they say unto Moses, `Thy servants have taken up the sum of the men of war who `are' with us, and not a man of us hath been missed;
field: 4031050
4
31
50
and we bring near Jehovah's offering, each that which he hath found, vessels of gold -- chain, and bracelet, seal-ring, `ear'-ring, and bead -- to make atonement for ourselves before Jehovah.'
field: 4031051
4
31
51
And Moses receiveth -- Eleazar the priest also -- the gold from them, every made vessel,
field: 4031052
4
31
52
and all the gold of the heave-offering which they have lifted up to Jehovah is sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels, from heads of the thousands, and from heads of the hundreds;
field: 4031053
4
31
53
(the men of the host have spoiled each for himself);
field: 4031054
4
31
54
and Moses taketh -- Eleazar the priest also -- the gold from the heads of the thousands and of the hundreds, and they bring it in unto the tent of meeting -- a memorial for the sons of Israel before Jehovah.
field: 4032001
4
32
1
And much cattle hath been to the sons of Reuben and to the sons of Gad, very many; and they see the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead, and lo, the place `is' a place `for' cattle;
field: 4032002
4
32
2
and the sons of Gad, and the sons of Reuben, come in and speak unto Moses, and unto Eleazar the priest, and unto the princes of the company, saying:
field: 4032003
4
32
3
`Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon --
field: 4032004
4
32
4
the land which Jehovah hath smitten before the company of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle.'
field: 4032005
4
32
5
And they say, `If we have found grace in thine eyes, let this land be given to thy servants for a possession; cause us not to pass over the Jordan.'
field: 4032006
4
32
6
And Moses saith to the sons of Gad and to the sons of Reuben, `Do your brethren go in to the battle, and ye -- do ye sit here?
field: 4032007
4
32
7
and why discourage ye the heart of the sons of Israel from passing over unto the land which Jehovah hath given to them?
field: 4032008
4
32
8
`Thus did your fathers in my sending them from Kadesh-Barnea to see the land;
field: 4032009
4
32
9
and they go up unto the valley of Eshcol, and see the land, and discourage the heart of the sons of Israel so as not to go in unto the land which Jehovah hath given to them;
field: 4032010
4
32
10
and the anger of Jehovah burneth in that day, and He sweareth, saying,
field: 4032011
4
32
11
They do not see -- the men who are coming up out of Egypt from a son of twenty years and upward -- the ground which I have sworn to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, for they have not been fully after Me;
field: 4032012
4
32
12
save Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua son of Nun, for they have been fully after Jehovah;
field: 4032013
4
32
13
and the anger of Jehovah burneth against Israel, and He causeth them to wander in the wilderness forty years, until the consumption of all the generation which is doing the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah.
field: 4032014
4
32
14
`And lo, ye have risen in the stead of your fathers, an increase of men -- sinners, to add yet to the fury of the anger of Jehovah toward Israel;
field: 4032015
4
32
15
when ye turn back from after Him, then He hath added yet to leave him in the wilderness, and ye have done corruptly to all this people.'
field: 4032016
4
32
16
And they come nigh unto him, and say, `Folds for the flock we build for our cattle here, and cities for our infants;
field: 4032017
4
32
17
and we -- we are armed hasting before the sons of Israel till that we have brought them in unto their place; and our infants have dwelt in the cities of defence because of the inhabitants of the land;
field: 4032018
4
32
18
we do not turn back unto our houses till the sons of Israel have inherited each his inheritance,
field: 4032019
4
32
19
for we do not inherit with them beyond the Jordan and yonder, for our inheritance hath come unto us beyond the Jordan at the `sun'-rising.'
field: 4032020
4
32
20
And Moses saith unto them, `If ye do this thing: if ye are armed before Jehovah for battle,
field: 4032021
4
32
21
and every armed one of you hath passed over the Jordan before Jehovah, till his dispossessing His enemies from before Him,
field: 4032022
4
32
22
and the land hath been subdued before Jehovah -- then afterwards ye do turn back, and have been acquitted by Jehovah, and by Israel; and this land hath been to you for a possession before Jehovah.
field: 4032023
4
32
23
`And if ye do not so, lo, ye have sinned against Jehovah, and know ye your sin, that it doth find you;
field: 4032024
4
32
24
build for yourselves cities for your infants, and folds for your flock, and that which is going out from your mouth do ye.'
field: 4032025
4
32
25
And the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben speak unto Moses, saying, `Thy servants do as my lord is commanding;
field: 4032026
4
32
26
our infants, our wives, our cattle, and all our beasts, are there in cities of Gilead,
field: 4032027
4
32
27
and thy servants pass over, every armed one of the host, before Jehovah, to battle, as my lord is saying.'
field: 4032028
4
32
28
And Moses commandeth concerning them Eleazar the priest, and Joshua son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the sons of Israel;
field: 4032029
4
32
29
and Moses saith unto them, `If the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben pass over with you the Jordan, every one armed for battle, before Jehovah, and the land hath been subdued before you, then ye have given to them the land of Gilead for a possession;
field: 4032030
4
32
30
and if they do not pass over armed with you, then they have possessions in your midst in the land of Canaan.'
field: 4032031
4
32
31
And the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben answer, saying, `That which Jehovah hath spoken unto thy servants -- so we do;
field: 4032032
4
32
32
we -- we pass over armed before Jehovah `to' the land of Canaan, and with us `is' the possession of our inheritance beyond the Jordan.'
field: 4032033
4
32
33
And Moses giveth to them, to the sons of Gad, and to the sons of Reuben, and to the half of the tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorite, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land by its cities, in the borders, the cities of the land round about.
field: 4032034
4
32
34
And the sons of Gad build Dihon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,

4
32
35
and Atroth, Shophan, and Jaazer, and Jogbehah,
field: 4032036

36
and Beth-Nimrah, and Beth-Haran, cities of defence, and sheepfolds.
field: 4032037
4
32
37
And the sons of Reuben have build Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kirjathaim,
field: 4032038
4
32
38
and Nebo, and Baal-Meon (changed in name), and Shibmah, and they call by `these' names the names of the cities which they have built.
field: 4032039
4
32
39
And sons of Machir son of Manasseh go to Gilead, and capture it, and dispossess the Amorite, who `is' in it;
field: 4032040
4
32
40
and Moses giveth Gilead to Machir son of Manasseh, and he dwelleth in it.

These `are' journeys of the sons of Israel who have come out of the land of Egypt, by their hosts, by the hand of Moses and Aaron;

4
33
2
and Moses writeth their outgoings, by their journeys, by the command of Jehovah; and these `are' their journeys, by their outgoings:

4
33
3
And they journey from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month, on the morrow of the passover have the sons of Israel gone out with a high hand, before the eyes of all the Egyptians --

`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye are passing over the Jordan unto the land of Canaan,

33
52
then ye have dispossessed all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and have destroyed all their imagery, yea, all their molten images ye destroy, and all their high places ye lay waste,
field: 4033053
4

53
and ye have possessed the land, and dwelt in it, for to you I have given the land -- to possess it.

`And ye have inherited the land by lot, by your families; to the many ye increase their inheritance, and to the few ye diminish their inheritance; whither the lot goeth out to him, it is his; by the tribes of your fathers ye inherit.

and it hath come to pass, as I thought to do to them -- I do to you.'

then hath the south quarter been to you from the wilderness of Zin, by the sides of Edom, yea, the south border hath been to you from the extremity of the Salt Sea, eastward;

And Moses commandeth the sons of Israel, saying, `This `is' the land which ye inherit by lot, which Jehovah hath commanded to give to the nine tribes and the half of the tribe;

the two tribes and the half of the tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan, `near' Jericho, eastward, at the `sun'-rising.'

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

17
`These `are' the names of the men who give to you the inheritance of the land: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua son of Nun,

`And these `are' the names of the men: of the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;

These `are' those whom Jehovah hath commanded to give the sons of Israel inheritance in the land of Canaan.
field: 4035001

1
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, in the plains of Moab, by Jordan, `near' Jericho, saying,
field: 4035002
4
35
2
`Command the sons of Israel, and they have given to the Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to inhabit; also a suburb for the cities round about them ye do give to the Levites.
field: 4035003
4
35
3
And the cities have been to them to inhabit, and their suburbs are for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.
field: 4035004
4
35
4
`And the suburbs of the cities which ye give to the Levites `are', from the wall of the city and without, a thousand cubits round about.
field: 4035005
4
35
5
And ye have measured from the outside of the city, the east quarter, two thousand by the cubit, and the south quarter, two thousand by the cubit, and the west quarter, two thousand by the cubit, and the north quarter, two thousand by the cubit; and the city `is' in the midst; this is to them the suburbs of the cities.
field: 4035006
4
35
6
`And the cities which ye give to the Levites `are' the six cities of refuge, which ye give for the fleeing thither of the man-slayer, and besides them ye give forty and two cities;

4
35
7
all the cities which ye give to the Levites `are' forty and eight cities, them and their suburbs.
field: 4035008
4
35
8
And the cities which ye give `are' of the possession of the sons of Israel, from the many ye multiply, and from the few ye diminish; each, according to his inheritance which they inherit, doth give of his cities to the Levites.'
field: 4035009
4
35
9
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
field: 4035010
4
35
10
`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye are passing over the Jordan to the land of Canaan,
field: 4035011
4
35
11
and have prepared to yourselves cities -- cities of refuge they are to you -- then fled thither hath a man-slayer, smiting a person unawares,
field: 4035012
4
35
12
and the cities have been to you for a refuge from the redeemer, and the man-slayer doth not die till his standing before the company for judgment.
field: 4035013
4
35
13
`As to the cities which ye give -- six `are' cities of refuge to you;
field: 4035014
4
35
14
the three of the cities ye give beyond the Jordan, and the three of the cities ye give in the land of Canaan; cities of refuge they are.
field: 4035015
4
35
15
To sons of Israel, and to a sojourner, and to a settler in their midst, are these six cities for a refuge, for the fleeing thither of any one smiting a person unawares.

35
16
`And if with an instrument of iron he hath smitten him, and he dieth, he `is' a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.

17
`And if with a stone `in' the hand, wherewith he dieth, he hath smitten him, and he dieth, he `is' a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.

19
`The redeemer of blood himself doth put the murderer to death; in his coming against him he doth put him to death.

`And if in hatred he thrust him through, or hath cast `anything' at him by lying in wait, and he dieth;

21
or in enmity he hath smitten him with his hand, and he dieth; the smiter is certainly put to death; he `is' a murderer; the redeemer of blood doth put the murderer to death in his coming against him.

4
35
24
then have the company judged between the smiter and the redeemer of blood, by these judgments.
field: 4035025
4
35
25
`And the company have delivered the man-slayer out of the hand of the redeemer of blood, and the company have caused him to turn back unto the city of his refuge, whither he hath fled, and he hath dwelt in it till the death of the chief priest, who hath been anointed with the holy oil.
field: 4035026
4

And the heads of the fathers of the families of the sons of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, come near, and speak before Moses, and before the princes, heads of the fathers of the sons of Israel,
field: 4036002

and say, Jehovah commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the sons of Israel, and my lord hath been commanded by Jehovah to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.

`And -- they have been to one of the sons of the `other' tribes of the sons of Israel for wives, and their inheritance hath been withdrawn from the inheritance of our fathers, and hath been added to the inheritance of the tribe which is theirs, and from the lot of our inheritance it is withdrawn,

and if it is the jubilee of the sons of Israel, then hath their inheritance been added to the inheritance of the tribe which is theirs, and from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers is their inheritance withdrawn.'

And Moses commandeth the sons of Israel, by the command of Jehovah, saying, `Rightly are the tribe of the sons of Joseph speaking;

this `is' the thing which Jehovah hath commanded concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, To those good in their eyes let them be for wives; only, to a family of the tribe of their fathers let them be for wives;

and the inheritance of the sons of Israel doth not turn round from tribe unto tribe; for each to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers, do the sons of Israel cleave.

`And every daughter possessing an inheritance, of the tribes of the sons of Israel, is to one of the family of the tribe of her father for a wife, so that the sons of Israel possess each the inheritance of his fathers,

As Jehovah hath commanded Moses, so have the daughters of Zelophehad done,

after his smiting Sihon king of the Amorite who is dwelling in Heshbon, and Og king of Bashan who is dwelling in Ashtaroth in Edrei,

beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, hath Moses begun to explain this law, saying:

`Jehovah our God hath spoken unto us in Horeb, saying, Enough to you -- of dwelling in this mount;

turn ye and journey for you, and enter the mount of the Amorite, and unto all its neighbouring places, in the plain, in the hill-country, and in the low country, and in the south, and in the haven of the sea, the land of the Canaanite, and of Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Phrat;

Jehovah, God of your fathers, is adding to you, as ye `are', a thousand times, and doth bless you as He hath spoken to you.

`How do I bear by myself your pressure, and your burden, and your strife?

ye do not discern faces in judgment; as the little so the great ye do hear; ye are not afraid of the face of any, for the judgment is God's, and the thing which is too hard for you, ye bring near unto me, and I have heard it;

`For the land whither thou art going in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt whence ye have come out, where thou sowest thy seed, and hast watered with thy foot, as a garden of the green herb;

but the land whither ye are passing over to possess it, `is' a land of hills and valleys; of the rain of the heavens it drinketh water;
field: 5011012

a land which Jehovah thy God is searching; continually `are' the eyes of Jehovah thy God upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the latter end of the year.

14
that I have given the rain of your land in its season -- sprinkling and gathered -- and thou hast gathered thy corn, and thy new wine, and thine oil,

the blessing, when ye hearken unto the commands of Jehovah your God, which I am commanding you to-day;

ye do utterly destroy all the places where the nations which ye are dispossessing served their gods, on the high mountains, and on the heights, and under every green tree;

`See, I have set before thee to-day life and good, and death and evil,

16
in that I am commanding thee to-day to love Jehovah thy God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commands, and His statutes, and His judgments; and thou hast lived and multiplied, and Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee in the land whither thou art going in to possess it.

`And if thy heart doth turn, and thou dost not hearken, and hast been driven away, and hast bowed thyself to other gods, and served them,
field: 5030018

I have declared to you this day, that ye do certainly perish, ye do not prolong days on the ground which thou art passing over the Jordan to go in thither to possess it.
field: 5030019
5

19
`I have caused to testify against you to-day the heavens and the earth; life and death I have set before thee, the blessing and the reviling; and thou hast fixed on life, so that thou dost live, thou and thy seed,

30
20
to love Jehovah thy God, to hearken to His voice, and to cleave to Him (for He `is' thy life, and the length of thy days), to dwell on the ground which Jehovah hath sworn to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to them.'

And Moses goeth and speaketh these words unto all Israel,
field: 5031002
5
31
2
and he saith unto them, `A son of a hundred and twenty years `am' I to-day; I am not able any more to go out and to come in, and Jehovah hath said unto me, Thou dost not pass over this Jordan,
field: 5031003
5
31

`Jehovah thy God He is passing over before thee, He doth destroy these nations from before thee, and thou hast possessed them; Joshua -- he is passing over before thee as Jehovah hath spoken,
field: 5031004
5
31
4
and Jehovah hath done to them as he hath done to Sihon and to Og, kings of the Amorite, and to their land, whom He destroyed.
field: 5031005
5
31
5
And Jehovah hath given them before your face, and ye have done to them according to all the command which I have commanded you;
field: 5031006
5
31
6
be strong and courageous, fear not, nor be terrified because of them, for Jehovah thy God `is' He who is going with thee; He doth not fail thee nor forsake thee.'
field: 5031007
5
31
7
And Moses calleth for Joshua, and saith unto him before the eyes of all Israel, `Be strong and courageous, for thou -- thou dost go in with this people unto the land which Jehovah hath sworn to their fathers to give to them, and thou -- thou dost cause them to inherit it;
field: 5031008

and Jehovah `is' He who is going before thee, He himself is with thee; He doth not fail thee nor forsake thee; fear not, nor be affrighted.'
field: 5031009
5
31
9
And Moses writeth this law, and giveth it unto the priests (sons of Levi, those bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah), and unto all the elders of Israel,
field: 5031010
5
31
10
and Moses commandeth them, saying, `At the end of seven years, in the appointed time, the year of release, in the feast of booths,
field: 5031011
5
31
11
in the coming in of all Israel to see the face of Jehovah in the place which He chooseth, thou dost proclaim this law before all Israel, in their ears.
field: 5031012
5
31
12
`Assemble the people, the men, and the women, and the infants, and thy sojourner who `is' within thy gates, so that they hear, and so that they learn, and have feared Jehovah your God, and observed to do all the words of this law;
field: 5031013
5
31
13
and their sons, who have not known, do hear, and have learned to fear Jehovah your God all the days which ye are living on the ground whither ye are passing over the Jordan to possess it.'
field: 5031014
5
31
14
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Lo, thy days have drawn near to die; call Joshua, and station yourselves in the tent of meeting, and I charge him;' and Moses goeth -- Joshua also -- and they station themselves in the tent of meeting,
field: 5031015
5
31
15
and Jehovah is seen in the tent, in a pillar of a cloud; and the pillar of the cloud standeth at the opening of the tent.
field: 5031016
5
31
16
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Lo, thou art lying down with thy fathers, and this people hath risen, and gone a-whoring after the gods of the stranger of the land into the midst of which it hath entered, and forsaken Me, and broken My covenant which I made with it;
field: 5031017
5
31
17
and Mine anger hath burned against it in that day, and I have forsaken them, and hidden My face from them, and it hath been for consumption, and many evils and distresses have found it, and it hath said in that day, Is it not because that my God is not in my midst -- these evils have found me?
field: 5031018
5
31
18
and I certainly hide My face in that day for all the evil which it hath done, for it hath turned unto other gods.
field: 5031019
5
31
19
`And now, write for you this song, and teach it the sons of Israel; put it in their mouths, so that this song is to Me for a witness against the sons of Israel,
field: 5031020
5
31
20
and I bring them in unto the ground which I have sworn to their fathers -- flowing with milk and honey, and they have eaten, and been satisfied, and been fat, and have turned unto other gods, and they have served them, and despised Me, and broken My covenant.
field: 5031021
5
31
21
`And it hath been, when many evils and distresses do meet it, that this song hath testified to its face for a witness; for it is not forgotten out of the mouth of its seed, for I have known its imagining which it is doing to-day, before I bring them in unto the land of which I have sworn.'
field: 5031022
5
31
22
And Moses writeth this song on that day, and doth teach it the sons of Israel,
field: 5031023
5
31
23
and He commandeth Joshua son of Nun, and saith, `Be strong and courageous, for thou dost bring in the sons of Israel unto the land which I have sworn to them, and I -- I am with thee.'
field: 5031024
5
31
24
And it cometh to pass, when Moses finisheth to write the words of this law on a book till their completion,
field: 5031025
5
31
25
that Moses commandeth the Levites bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, saying,
field: 5031026
5
31
26
`Take this Book of the Law, and thou hast set it on the side of the ark of the covenant of Jehovah your God, and it hath been there against thee for a witness;

5
31
27
for I -- I have known thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck; lo, in my being yet alive with you to-day, rebellious ye have been with Jehovah, and also surely after my death.

28
`Assemble unto me all the elders of your tribes, and your authorities, and I speak in their ears these words, and cause to testify against them the heavens and the earth,

5
31
29
for I have known that after my death ye do very corruptly, and have turned aside out of the way which I commanded you, and evil hath met you in the latter end of the days, because ye do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, to make Him angry with the work of your hands.'
field: 5031030
5
31
30
And Moses speaketh in the ears of all the assembly of Israel the words of this song, till their completion: --
field: 5032001
5
32
1
`Give ear, O heavens, and I speak; And thou dost hear, O earth, sayings of my mouth!
field: 5032002

32
2
Drop as rain doth My doctrine; Flow as dew doth My sayings; As storms on the tender grass, And as showers on the herb,

3
For the Name of Jehovah I proclaim, Ascribe ye greatness to our God!
field: 5032004

The Rock! -- perfect `is' His work, For all His ways `are' just; God of stedfastness, and without iniquity: Righteous and upright `is' He.
field: 5032005
5
32
5
It hath done corruptly to Him; Their blemish is not His sons', A generation perverse and crooked!
field: 5032006
5
32
6
To Jehovah do ye act thus, O people foolish and not wise? Is not He thy father -- thy possessor? He made thee, and doth establish thee.
field: 5032007
5
32
7
Remember days of old -- Understand the years of many generations -- Ask thy father, and he doth tell thee; Thine elders, and they say to thee:
field: 5032008
5
32
8
In the Most High causing nations to inherit, In His separating sons of Adam -- He setteth up the borders of the peoples By the number of the sons of Israel.
field: 5032009
5

For Jehovah's portion `is' His people, Jacob `is' the line of His inheritance.

10
He findeth him in a land -- a desert, And in a void -- a howling wilderness, He turneth him round -- He causeth him to understand -- He keepeth him as the apple of His eye.

11
As an eagle waketh up its nest, Over its young ones fluttereth, Spreadeth its wings -- taketh them, Beareth them on its pinions; --

12
Jehovah alone doth lead him, And there is no strange god with him.
field: 5032013
5
32
13
He maketh him ride on high places of earth, And he eateth increase of the fields, And He maketh him suck honey from a rock, And oil out of the flint of a rock;
field: 5032014
5
32
14
Butter of the herd, and milk of the flock, With fat of lambs, and rams, sons of Bashan, And he-goats, with fat of kidneys of wheat; And of the blood of the grape thou dost drink wine!
field: 5032015
5
32
15
And Jeshurun waxeth fat, and doth kick: Thou hast been fat -- thou hast been thick, Thou hast been covered. And he leaveth God who made him, And dishonoureth the Rock of his salvation.
field: 5032016
5
32
16
They make Him zealous with strangers, With abominations they make Him angry.

They sacrifice to demons -- no god! Gods they have not known -- New ones -- from the vicinity they came; Not feared them have your fathers!

5
32
18
The Rock that begat thee thou forgettest, And neglectest God who formeth thee.
field: 5032019
5

19
And Jehovah seeth and despiseth -- For the provocation of His sons and His daughters.
field: 5032020
5
32
20
And He saith: I hide My face from them, I see what `is' their latter end; For a froward generation `are' they, Sons in whom is no stedfastness.
field: 5032021
5
32
21
They have made Me zealous by `no-god,' They made Me angry by their vanities; And I make them zealous by `no-people,' By a foolish nation I make them angry.

For a fire hath been kindled in Mine anger, And it burneth unto Sheol -- the lowest, And consumeth earth and its increase, And setteth on fire foundations of mountains.

23
I gather upon them evils, Mine arrows I consume upon them.
field: 5032024
5

24
Exhausted by famine, And consumed by heat, and bitter destruction. And the teeth of beasts I send upon them, With poison of fearful things of the dust.

Without bereave doth the sword, And at the inner-chambers -- fear, Both youth and virgin, Suckling with man of grey hair.

If not -- the anger of an enemy I fear, Lest their adversaries know -- Lest they say, Our hand is high, And Jehovah hath not wrought all this.
field: 5032028

28
For a nation lost to counsels `are' they, And there is no understanding in them.
field: 5032029
5

29
If they were wise -- They deal wisely `with' this; They attend to their latter end:

30
How doth one pursue a thousand, And two cause a myriad to flee! If not -- that their rock hath sold them, And Jehovah hath shut them up?

32
31
For not as our Rock `is' their rock, (And our enemies `are' judges!)

For of the vine of Sodom their vine `is', And of the fields of Gomorrah; Their grapes `are' grapes of gall -- They have bitter clusters;

The poison of dragons `is' their wine And the fierce venom of asps.

Mine `are' vengeance and recompense, At the due time -- doth their foot slide; For near is a day of their calamity, And haste do things prepared for them.
field: 5032036
5

36
For Jehovah doth judge His people, And for His servants doth repent Himself. For He seeth -- the going away of power, And none is restrained and left.
field: 5032037
5
32
37
And He hath said, Where `are' their gods -- The rock in which they trusted;

5
32
38
Which the fat of their sacrifices do eat, They drink the wine of their libation! Let them arise and help you, Let it be for you a hiding-place!

39
See ye, now, that I -- I `am' He, And there is no god with Me: I put to death, and I keep alive; I have smitten, and I heal; And there is not from My hand a deliverer,

5
32
40
For I lift up unto the heavens My hand, And have said, I live -- to the age!
field: 5032041
5
32
41
If I have sharpened the brightness of My sword, And My hand doth lay hold on judgment, I turn back vengeance to Mine adversaries, And to those hating Me -- I repay!
field: 5032042
5
32
42
I make drunk Mine arrows with blood, And My sword devoureth flesh, From the blood of the pierced and captive, From the head of the freemen of the enemy.
field: 5032043
5
32
43
Sing ye nations -- `with' his people, For the blood of His servants He avengeth, And vengeance He turneth back on His adversaries, And hath pardoned His land -- His people.'
field: 5032044
5
32
44
And Moses cometh and speaketh all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he and Hoshea son of Nun;
field: 5032045
5
32
45
and Moses finisheth to speak all these words unto all Israel,
field: 5032046
5
32
46
and saith unto them, `Set your heart to all the words which I am testifying against you to-day, that ye command your sons to observe to do all the words of this law,
field: 5032047
5
32
47
for it `is' not a vain thing for you, for it `is' your life, and by this thing ye prolong days on the ground whither ye are passing over the Jordan to possess it.'
field: 5032048
5
32
48
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, in this self-same day, saying,
field: 5032049
5
32
49
`Go up unto this mount Abarim, mount Nebo, which `is' in the land of Moab, which `is' on the front of Jericho, and see the land of Canaan which I am giving to the sons of Israel for a possession;
field: 5032050
5
32
50
and die in the mount whither thou art going up, and be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother hath died in the mount Hor, and is gathered unto his people:
field: 5032051
5
32
51
`Because ye trespassed against me in the midst of the sons of Israel at the waters of Meribath-Kadesh, the wilderness of Zin -- because ye sanctified Me not in the midst of the sons of Israel;
field: 5032052
5
32
52
but over-against thou seest the land, and thither thou dost not go in, unto the land which I am giving to the sons of Israel.'
field: 5033001
5
33
1
And this `is' the blessing `with' which Moses the man of God blessed the sons of Israel before his death,
field: 5033002
5
33
2
and he saith: -- `Jehovah from Sinai hath come, And hath risen from Seir for them; He hath shone from mount Paran, And hath come `with' myriads of holy ones; At His right hand `are' springs for them.
field: 5033003
5
33
3
Also He `is' loving the peoples; All His holy ones `are' in thy hand, And they -- they sat down at thy foot, `Each' He lifteth up at thy words.

Let Reuben live, and not die, And let his men be a number.

And this `is' for Judah; and he saith: -- Hear, O Jehovah, the voice of Judah, And unto his people do Thou bring him in; His hand hath striven for him, And an help from his adversaries art Thou.
field: 5033008
5
33
8
And of Levi he said: -- Thy Thummim and thy Urim `are' for thy pious one, Whom Thou hast tried in Massah, Thou dost strive with Him at the waters of Meribah;

Who is saying of his father and his mother, I have not seen him; And his brethren he hath not discerned, And his sons he hath not known; For they have observed Thy saying, And Thy covenant they keep.

Of Benjamin he said: -- The beloved of Jehovah doth tabernacle confidently by him, Covering him over all the day; Yea, between his shoulders He doth tabernacle.

33
13
And of Joseph he said: -- Blessed of Jehovah `is' his land, By precious things of the heavens, By dew, and by the deep crouching beneath,

14
And by precious things -- fruits of the sun, And by precious things -- cast forth by the moons,

And by chief things -- of the ancient mountains, And by precious things -- of the age-during heights,

And of Zebulun he said: -- Rejoice, O Zebulun, in thy going out, And, O Issachar, in thy tents;

Peoples `to' the mountain they call, There they sacrifice righteous sacrifices; For the abundance of the seas they suck, And hidden things hidden in the sand.

And of Gad he said: -- Blessed of the Enlarger `is' Gad, As a lioness he doth tabernacle, And hath torn the arm -- also the crown!

And he provideth the first part for himself, For there the portion of the lawgiver is covered, And he cometh `with' the heads of the people; The righteousness of Jehovah he hath done, And His judgments with Israel.

And of Dan he said: -- Dan `is' a lion's whelp; he doth leap from Bashan.

And of Naphtali he said: -- O Naphtali, satisfied with pleasure, And full of the blessing of Jehovah, West and south possess thou.

And of Asher he said: -- Blessed with sons `is' Asher, Let him be accepted by his brethren, And dipping in oil his foot.

A habitation `is' the eternal God, And beneath `are' arms age-during. And He casteth out from thy presence the enemy, and saith, `Destroy!'

And Israel doth tabernacle `in' confidence alone; The eye of Jacob `is' unto a land of corn and wine; Also His heavens drop down dew.

O thy happiness, O Israel! who is like thee? A people saved by Jehovah, The shield of thy help, And He who `is' the sword of thine excellency: And thine enemies are subdued for thee, And thou on their high places dost tread.'

And Moses goeth up from the plains of Moab unto mount Nebo, the top of Pisgah, which `is' on the front of Jericho, and Jehovah sheweth him all the land -- Gilead unto Dan,

And Jehovah saith unto him, `This `is' the land which I have sworn to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, To thy seed I give it; I have caused thee to see with thine eyes, and thither thou dost not pass over.'

And Moses, servant of the Lord, dieth there, in the land of Moab, according to the command of Jehovah;

and He burieth him in a valley in the land of Moab, over-against Beth-Peor, and no man hath known his burying place unto this day.

And Moses `is' a son of a hundred and twenty years when he dieth; his eye hath not become dim, nor hath his moisture fled.

And Joshua commandeth the authorities of the people, saying,

11
`Pass over into the midst of the camp, and command the people, saying, Prepare for yourselves provision, for within three days ye are passing over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land which Jehovah your God is giving to you to possess it.'
field: 6001012

12
And to the Reubenite, and to the Gadite, and to the half of the tribe of Manasseh, hath Joshua spoken, saying,
field: 6001013
6
1
13
`Remember the word which Moses, servant of Jehovah, commanded you, saying, Jehovah your God is giving rest to you, and He hath given to you this land;
field: 6001014

14
your wives, your infants, and your substance, abide in the land which Moses hath given to you beyond the Jordan, and ye -- ye pass over by fifties, before your brethren, all the mighty ones of valour, and have helped them,
field: 6001015
6

15
till that Jehovah giveth rest to your brethren as to yourselves, and they have possessed, even they, the land which Jehovah your God is giving to them; then ye have turned back to the land of your possession, and have possessed it, which Moses, servant of Jehovah, hath given to you beyond the Jordan, `at' the sun-rising.'
field: 6001016
6

16
And they answer Joshua, saying, `All that thou hast commanded us we do; and unto every `place' whither thou dost send us, we go;
field: 6001017
6

17
according to all that we hearkened unto Moses `in', so we hearken unto thee; surely Jehovah thy God is with thee as He hath been with Moses.

Any man who doth provoke thy mouth, and doth not hear thy words, in all that thou dost command him, is put to death; only, be strong and courageous.'

And Joshua son of Nun sendeth from Shittim, two men, spies, silently, saying, `Go, see the land -- and Jericho;' and they go and come into the house of a woman, a harlot, and her name `is' Rahab, and they lie down there.
field: 6002002

And it is told to the king of Jericho, saying, `Lo, men have come in hither to-night, from the sons of Israel, to search the land.

And the king of Jericho sendeth unto Rahab, saying, `Bring out the men who are coming in unto thee, who have come into thy house, for to search the whole of the land they have come in.

And the woman taketh the two men, and hideth them, and saith thus: `The men came in unto me, and I have not known whence they `are';
field: 6002005

5
and it cometh to pass -- the gate is to `be' shut -- in the dark, and the men have gone out; I have not known whither the men have gone; pursue ye, hasten after them, for ye overtake them;'
field: 6002006
6

and she hath caused them to go up on the roof, and hideth them with the flax wood, which is arranged for her on the roof.

And the men have pursued after them the way of the Jordan, by the fords, and the gate they have shut afterwards, when the pursuers have gone out after them.

And -- before they lie down -- she hath gone up unto them on the roof,
field: 6002009
6

and she saith unto the men, `I have known that Jehovah hath given to you the land, and that your terror hath fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land have melted at your presence.
field: 6002010

10
`For we have heard how Jehovah dried up the waters of the Red Sea at your presence, in your going out of Egypt, and that which ye have done to the two kings of the Amorite who `are' beyond the Jordan; to Sihon and to Og whom ye devoted.
field: 6002011

And we hear, and melt doth our heart, and there hath not stood any more spirit in `any' man, from your presence, for Jehovah your God, He `is' God in the heavens above, and on the earth beneath.
field: 6002012

12
`And now, swear ye, I pray you, to me by Jehovah -- because I have done with you kindness -- that ye have done, even ye, kindness with the house of my father, and have given to me a true token,
field: 6002013
6

13
and have kept alive my father, and my mother, and my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and have delivered our souls from death.'
field: 6002014
6

14
And the men say to her, `Our soul for yours -- to die; if ye declare not this our matter, then it hath been, in Jehovah's giving to us this land, that we have done with thee kindness and truth.'
field: 6002015
6

15
And she causeth them to go down by a rope through the window, for her house `is' in the side of the wall, and in the wall she `is' dwelling;
field: 6002016
6
2
16
and she saith to them, `To the mountain go, lest the pursuers come upon you; and ye have been hidden there three days till the turning back of the pursuers, and afterwards ye go on your way.'
field: 6002017
6
2
17
And the men say unto her, `We are acquitted of this thine oath which thou hast caused us to swear:

2
18
lo, we are coming into the land, this line of scarlet thread thou dost bind to the window by which thou hast caused us to go down, and thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all the house of thy father thou dost gather unto thee, to the house;

19
and it hath been, any one who goeth out from the doors of thy house without, his blood `is' on his head, and we are innocent; and any one who is with thee in the house, his blood `is' on our head, if a hand is on him;
field: 6002020

2
20
and if thou declare this our matter, then we have been acquitted from thine oath which thou hast caused us to swear.'
field: 6002021
6

21
And she saith, `According unto your words, so it `is';' and she sendeth them away, and they go; and she bindeth the scarlet line to the window.
field: 6002022
6
2
22
And they go, and come in to the mountain, and abide there three days until the pursuers have turned back; and the pursuers seek in all the way, and have not found.
field: 6002023
6
2
23
And the two men turn back, and come down from the hill, and pass over, and come in unto Joshua son of Nun, and recount to him all that hath come upon them;
field: 6002024
6
2
24
and they say unto Joshua, `Surely Jehovah hath given into our hand all the land; and also, all the inhabitants of the land have melted at our presence.'

And Joshua riseth early in the morning, and they journey from Shittim, and come in unto the Jordan, he and all the sons of Israel, and they lodge there before they pass over.
field: 6003002
6

2
And it cometh to pass, at the end of three days, that the authorities pass over into the midst of the camp,
field: 6003003
6
3
3
and command the people, saying, `When ye see the ark of the covenant of Jehovah your God, and the priests, the Levites, bearing it, then ye journey from your place, and have gone after it;
field: 6003004
6
3
4
only, a distance is between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure; ye do not come near unto it, so that ye know the way in which ye go, for ye have not passed over in the way heretofore.'

And Joshua saith unto the people, `Sanctify yourselves, for to-morrow doth Jehovah do in your midst wonders.'
field: 6003006

And Joshua speaketh unto the priests, saying, `Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass over before the people;' and they take up the ark of the covenant, and go before the people.
field: 6003007

And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, `This day I begin to make thee great in the eyes of all Israel, so that they know that as I was with Moses I am with thee;

and thou, thou dost command the priests bearing the ark of the covenant, saying, When ye come unto the extremity of the waters of the Jordan -- in the Jordan ye stand.'

And Joshua saith unto the sons of Israel, `Come nigh hither, and hear the words of Jehovah your God;

10
and Joshua saith, `By this ye know that the living God `is' in your midst, and He doth certainly dispossess from before you the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Hivite, and the Perizzite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Jebusite:

6

11
lo, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth is passing over before you into Jordan;
field: 6003012
6
3
12
and now, take for you twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, one man -- one man for a tribe;
field: 6003013
6
3
13
and it hath been, at the resting of the soles of the feet of the priests bearing the ark of Jehovah, Lord of all the earth, in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan are cut off -- the waters which are coming down from above -- and they stand -- one heap.'
field: 6003014
6
3
14
And it cometh to pass, in the journeying of the people from their tents to pass over the Jordan, and of the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people,
field: 6003015
6
3
15
and at those bearing the ark coming in unto the Jordan, and the feet of the priests bearing the ark have been dipped in the extremity of the waters (and the Jordan is full over all its banks all the days of harvest) --
field: 6003016
6
3
16
that the waters stand; those coming down from above have risen -- one heap, very far above Adam the city, which `is' at the side of Zaretan; and those going down by the sea of the plain, the Salt Sea, have been completely cut off; and the people have passed through over-against Jericho;
field: 6003017
6
3
17
and the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah stand on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan -- established, and all Israel are passing over on dry ground till that all the nation hath completed to pass over the Jordan.
field: 6004001
6
4
1
And it cometh to pass, when all the nation hath completed to pass over the Jordan, that Jehovah speaketh unto Joshua, saying,
field: 6004002
6
4
2
`Take for you out of the people twelve men, one man -- one man out of a tribe;
field: 6004003
6
4
3
and command ye them, saying, Take up for you from this `place', from the midst of the Jordan, from the established standing-place of the feet of the priests, twelve stones, and ye have removed them over with you, and placed them in the lodging-place in which ye lodge to-night.'
field: 6004004
6
4
4
And Joshua calleth unto the twelve men whom he prepared out of the sons of Israel, one man -- one man out of a tribe;
field: 6004005
6
4
5
and Joshua saith to them, `Pass over before the ark of Jehovah your God unto the midst of the Jordan and lift up for you each, one stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel,
field: 6004006
6
4
6
so that this is a sign in your midst, when your children ask hereafter, saying, What `are' these stones to you?
field: 6004007
6
4
7
that ye have said to them, Because the waters of the Jordan were cut off, at the presence of the ark of the covenant of Jehovah; in its passing over into the Jordan were the waters of the Jordan cut off; and these stones have been for a memorial to the sons of Israel -- to the age.'
field: 6004008
6
4
8
And the sons of Israel do so as Joshua commanded, and take up twelve stones out of the midst of the Jordan, as Jehovah hath spoken unto Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel, and remove them over with them unto the lodging-place, and place them there,
field: 6004009
6
4
9
even the twelve stones hath Joshua raised up out of the midst of the Jordan, the place of the standing of the feet of the priests bearing the ark of the covenant, and they are there unto this day.
field: 6004010
6
4
10
And the priests bearing the ark are standing in the midst of the Jordan till the completion of the whole thing which Jehovah commanded Joshua to speak unto the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua, and the people haste and pass over.
field: 6004011
6
4
11
And it cometh to pass when all the people have completed to pass over, that the ark of Jehovah passeth over, and the priests, in the presence of the people;
field: 6004012
6
4
12
and the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, pass over, by fifties, before the sons of Israel, as Moses had spoken unto them;
field: 6004013
6
4
13
about forty thousand, armed ones of the host, passed over before Jehovah for battle, unto the plains of Jericho.
field: 6004014
6
4
14
On that day hath Jehovah made Joshua great in the eyes of all Israel, and they reverence him, as they reverenced Moses, all days of his life.
field: 6004015
6
4
15
And Jehovah speaketh unto Joshua, saying,
field: 6004016
6
4
16
`Command the priests bearing the ark of the testimony, and they come up out of the Jordan.'
field: 6004017
6
4
17
And Joshua commandeth the priests, saying, `Come ye up out of the Jordan.'
field: 6004018
6
4
18
And it cometh to pass, in the coming up of the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of the midst of the Jordan -- the soles of the feet of the priests have been drawn up into the dry ground -- and the waters of the Jordan turn back to their place, and go as heretofore over all its banks.
field: 6004019
6
4
19
And the people have come up out of the Jordan on the tenth of the first month, and encamp in Gilgal, in the extremity east of Jericho;
field: 6004020
6
4
20
and these twelve stones, which they have taken out of the Jordan, hath Joshua raised up in Gilgal.
field: 6004021
6
4
21
And he speaketh unto the sons of Israel, saying, `When your sons ask their fathers hereafter, saying, What `are' these stones?
field: 6004022
6
4
22
then ye have caused your sons to know, saying, On dry land Israel passed over this Jordan;
field: 6004023
6
4
23
because Jehovah your God dried up the waters of the Jordan at your presence, till your passing over, as Jehovah your God did to the Red Sea which He dried up at our presence till our passing over;
field: 6004024
6
4
24
so that all the people of the land do know the hand of Jehovah that it `is' strong, so that ye have reverenced Jehovah your God all the days.'
field: 6005001
6
5
1
And it cometh to pass when all the kings of the Amorite which `are' beyond the Jordan, towards the sea, and all the kings of the Canaanite which `are' by the sea, hear how that Jehovah hath dried up the waters of the Jordan at the presence of the sons of Israel till their passing over, that their heart is melted, and there hath not been in them any more spirit because of the presence of the sons of Israel.
field: 6005002
6

2
At that time said Jehovah unto Joshua, `Make for thee knives of flint, and turn back, circumcise the sons of Israel a second time;'
field: 6005003
6
5
3
and Joshua maketh for him knives of flint, and circumciseth the sons of Israel at the height of the foreskins.
field: 6005004
6
5
4
And this `is' the thing `for' which Joshua circumciseth `them': all the people who are coming out of Egypt, who are males, all the men of war have died in the wilderness, in the way, in their coming out of Egypt,
field: 6005005
6
5
5
for all the people who are coming out were circumcised, and all the people who `are' born in the wilderness, in the way, in their coming out from Egypt, they have not circumcised;
field: 6005006
6
5
6
for forty years have the sons of Israel gone in the wilderness, till all the nation of the men of war who are coming out of Egypt, who hearkened not to the voice of Jehovah, to whom Jehovah hath sworn not to show them the land which Jehovah sware to their fathers to give to us, a land flowing with milk and honey, are consumed;
field: 6005007
6
5
7
and their sons He raised up in their stead, them hath Joshua circumcised, for they have been uncircumcised, for they have not circumcised them in the way.
field: 6005008
6
5
8
And it cometh to pass when all the nation have completed to be circumcised, that they abide in their places in the camp till their recovering;
field: 6005009
6
5
9
and Jehovah saith unto Joshua, `To-day I have rolled the reproach of Egypt from off you;' and `one' calleth the name of that place Gilgal unto this day.
field: 6005010
6
5
10
And the sons of Israel encamp in Gilgal, and make the passover on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the plains of Jericho;
field: 6005011
6
5
11
and they eat of the old corn of the land on the morrow of the passover, unleavened things and roasted `corn', in this self-same day;
field: 6005012
6
5
12
and the manna doth cease on the morrow in their eating of the old corn of the land, and there hath been no more manna to the sons of Israel, and they eat of the increase of the land of Canaan in that year.
field: 6005013
6
5
13
And it cometh to pass in Joshua's being by Jericho, that he lifteth up his eyes, and looketh, and lo, one standing over-against him, and his drawn sword in his hand, and Joshua goeth unto him, and saith to him, `Art thou for us or for our adversaries?'
field: 6005014
6
5
14
And He saith, `No, for I `am' Prince of Jehovah's host; now I have come;' and Joshua falleth on his face to the earth, and doth obeisance, and saith to Him, `What is my Lord speaking unto His servant?'
field: 6005015
6
5
15
And the Prince of Jehovah's host saith unto Joshua, `Cast off thy shoe from off thy foot, for the place on which thou art standing is holy;' and Joshua doth so;
field: 6006001
6
6
1
(And Jericho shutteth itself up, and is shut up, because of the presence of the sons of Israel -- none going out, and none coming in;)
field: 6006002
6
6
2
And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, `See, I have given into thy hand Jericho and its king -- mighty ones of valour,
field: 6006003
6
6
3
and ye have compassed the city -- all the men of battle -- going round the city once; thus thou dost six days;
field: 6006004
6
6
4
and seven priests do bear seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark, and on the seventh day ye compass the city seven times, and the priests blow with the trumpets,
field: 6006005
6
6
5
and it hath been, in the prolongation of the horn of the jubilee, in your hearing the voice of the trumpet, all the people shout -- a great shout, and the wall of the city hath fallen under it, and the people have gone up, each over-against him.'
field: 6006006
6
6
6
And Joshua son of Nun calleth unto the priests, and saith unto them, `Bear ye the ark of the covenant, and seven priests do bear seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark of Jehovah;'
field: 6006007
6
6
7
and He said unto the people, `Pass over, and compass the city, and he who is armed doth pass over before the ark of Jehovah.'
field: 6006008
6
6
8
And it cometh to pass, when Joshua speaketh unto the people, that the seven priests bearing seven trumpets of the jubilee before Jehovah have passed over and blown with the trumpets, and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah is going after them;
field: 6006009
6
6
9
and he who is armed is going before the priests blowing the trumpets, and he who is gathering up is going after the ark, going on and blowing with the trumpets;
field: 6006010
6
6
10
and the people hath Joshua commanded, saying, `Ye do not shout, nor cause your voice to be heard, nor doth there go out from your mouth a word, till the day of my saying unto you, Shout ye -- then ye have shouted.'
field: 6006011
6
6
11
And the ark of Jehovah doth compass the city, going round once, and they come into the camp, and lodge in the camp.
field: 6006012
6
6
12
And Joshua riseth early in the morning, and the priests bear the ark of Jehovah,
field: 6006013
6
6
13
and seven priests bearing seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark of Jehovah are walking, going on, and they have blown with the trumpets -- and he who is armed is going before them, and he who is gathering up is going behind the ark of Jehovah -- going on and blowing with the trumpets.
field: 6006014
6
6
14
And they compass the city on the second day once, and turn back to the camp; thus they have done six days.
field: 6006015
6
6
15
And it cometh to pass, on the seventh day, that they rise early, at the ascending of the dawn, and compass the city, according to this manner, seven times; (only, on that day they have compassed the city seven times);
field: 6006016
6
6
16
and it cometh to pass, at the seventh time, the priests have blown with the trumpets, and Joshua saith unto the people, `Shout ye, for Jehovah hath given to you the city;
field: 6006017
6
6
17
and the city hath been devoted, it and all that `is' in it, to Jehovah; only Rahab the harlot doth live, she and all who `are' with her in the house, for she hid the messengers whom we sent;
field: 6006018
6
6
18
and surely ye have kept from the devoted thing, lest ye devote `yourselves', and have taken from the devoted thing, and have made the camp of Israel become a devoted thing, and have troubled it;
field: 6006019
6
6
19
and all the silver and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, holy they `are' to Jehovah; into the treasury of Jehovah they come.'
field: 6006020
6
6
20
And the people shout, and blow with the trumpets, and it cometh to pass when the people hear the voice of the trumpet, that the people shout -- a great shout, and the wall falleth under it, and the people goeth up into the city, each over-against him, and they capture the city;
field: 6006021
6
6
21
and they devote all that `is' in the city, from man even unto woman, from young even unto aged, even unto ox, and sheep, and ass, by the mouth of the sword.
field: 6006022
6
6
22
And to the two men who are spying the land Joshua said, `Go into the house of the woman, the harlot, and bring out thence the woman, and all whom she hath, as ye have sworn to her.'
field: 6006023
6
6
23
And the young man, the spies, go in and bring out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all whom she hath; yea, all her families they have brought out, and place them at the outside of the camp of Israel.
field: 6006024
6
6
24
And the city they have burnt with fire, and all that `is' in it; only, the silver and the gold, and the vessels of brass, and of iron, they have given `to' the treasury of the house of Jehovah;
field: 6006025
6
6
25
and Rahab the harlot, and the house of her father, and all whom she hath, hath Joshua kept alive; and she dwelleth in the midst of Israel unto this day, for she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
field: 6006026
6
6
26
And Joshua adjureth `them' at that time, saying, `Cursed `is' the man before Jehovah who raiseth up and hath built this city, `even' Jericho; in his first-born he doth lay its foundation, and in his youngest he doth set up its doors;'

and Jehovah is with Joshua, and his fame is in all the land.

And the sons of Israel commit a trespass in the devoted thing, and Achan, son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, taketh of the devoted thing, and the anger of Jehovah burneth against the sons of Israel.

And Joshua sendeth men from Jericho to Ai, which `is' near Beth-Aven, on the east of Bethel, and speaketh unto them, saying, `Go up and spy the land;' and the men go up and spy Ai,

and they turn back unto Joshua, and say unto him, `Let not all the people go up; let about two thousand men, or about three thousand men, go up, and they smite Ai; cause not all the people to labour thither; for they `are' few.'
field: 6007004

And there go up of the people thither about three thousand men, and they flee before the men of Ai,

and the men of Ai smite of them about thirty and six men, and pursue them before the gate unto Shebarim, and they smite them in Morad; and the heart of the people is melted, and becometh water.

And Joshua rendeth his garments, and falleth on his face to the earth before the ark of Jehovah till the evening, he and the elders of Israel, and they cause dust to go up on their head.

And Joshua saith, `Ah, Lord Jehovah, why hast Thou at all caused this people to pass over the Jordan, to give us into the hand of the Amorite to destroy us? -- and oh that we had been willing -- and we dwell beyond the Jordan!
field: 6007008

Oh, Lord, what do I say, after that Israel hath turned the neck before its enemies?
field: 6007009

and the Canaanite and all the inhabitants of the land do hear, and have come round against us, and cut off our name out of the earth; and what dost Thou do for Thy great name?'
field: 6007010

And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, `Rise for thee, why `is' this? -- thou `art' falling on thy face?

Israel hath sinned, and also they have transgressed My covenant which I commanded them, and also taken of the devoted thing, and also stolen, and also deceived, and also put `it' among their vessels,
field: 6007012
6
7
12
and the sons of Israel have not been able to stand before their enemies; the neck they turn before their enemies, for they have become a devoted thing; I add not to be with you -- if ye destroy not the devoted thing out of your midst.
field: 6007013
6
7
13
`Rise, sanctify the people, and thou hast said, Sanctify yourselves for to-morrow; for thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, A devoted thing `is' in thy midst, O Israel, thou art not able to stand before thine enemies till your turning aside of the devoted thing out of your midst;
field: 6007014

and ye have been brought near in the morning by your tribes, and it hath been, the tribe which Jehovah doth capture doth draw near by families, and the family which Jehovah doth capture doth draw near by households, and the household which Jehovah doth capture doth draw near by men;
field: 6007015
6
7
15
and it hath been, he who is captured with the devoted thing is burnt with fire, he and all that he hath, because he hath transgressed the covenant of Jehovah, and because he hath done folly in Israel.'
field: 6007016
6
7
16
And Joshua riseth early in the morning, and bringeth Israel near by its tribes, and the tribe of Judah is captured;
field: 6007017
6
7
17
and he bringeth near the family of Judah, and he captureth the family of the Zarhite; and he bringeth near the family of the Zarhite by men, and Zabdi is captured;
field: 6007018
6

18
and he bringeth near his household by men, and Achan -- son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah -- is captured.

And Joshua saith unto Achan, `My son, put, I pray thee, honour on Jehovah, God of Israel, and give to Him thanks, and declare, I pray thee, to me, what thou hast done -- hide not from me.'

And Achan answereth Joshua, and saith, `Truly I have sinned against Jehovah, God of Israel, and thus and thus I have done;

21
and I see among the spoil a goodly robe of Shinar, and two hundred shekels of silver, and one wedge of gold, whose weight `is' fifty shekels, and I desire them, and take them; and lo, they `are' hid in the earth, in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it.'
field: 6007022

22
And Joshua sendeth messengers, and they run unto the tent, and lo, it is hidden in his tent, and the silver under it;
field: 6007023
6

and they take them out of the midst of the tent, and bring them in unto Joshua, and unto all the sons of Israel, and pour them out before Jehovah.
field: 6007024
6

24
And Joshua taketh Achan son of Zerah, and the silver, and the robe, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his ox, and his ass, and his flock, and his tent, and all that he hath, and all Israel with him, and they cause them to go up the valley of Achor.
field: 6007025

25
And Joshua saith, `What! thou hast troubled us! -- Jehovah doth trouble thee this day;' and all Israel cast stones at him, and they burn them with fire, and they stone them with stones,
field: 6007026
6

26
and they raise up over him a great heap of stones unto this day, and Jehovah turneth back from the heat of His anger, therefore hath `one' called the name of that place `Valley of Achor' till this day.

And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, `Fear not, nor be affrighted, take with thee all the people of war, and rise, go up to Ai; see, I have given into thy hand the king of Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land,
field: 6008002
6

and thou hast done to Ai and to her king as thou hast done to Jericho and to her king; only, its spoil and its cattle ye spoil for yourselves; set for thee an ambush for the city at its rear.'
field: 6008003
6

And Joshua riseth, and all the people of war, to go up to Ai, and Joshua chooseth thirty thousand men, mighty ones of valour, and sendeth them away by night,
field: 6008004
6
8
4
and commandeth them, saying, `See, ye are liers in wait against the city, at the rear of the city, ye go not very far off from the city, and all of you have been prepared,
field: 6008005
6
8
5
and I and all the people who `are' with me draw near unto the city, and it hath come to pass when they come out to meet us as at the first, and we have fled before them,
field: 6008006
6
8
6
and they have come out after us till we have drawn them out of the city, for they say, They are fleeing before us as at the first, and we have fled before them,
field: 6008007
6
8
7
and ye rise from the ambush, and have occupied the city, and Jehovah your God hath given it into your hand;
field: 6008008
6
8
8
and it hath been, when ye capture the city, ye burn the city with fire, according to the word of Jehovah ye do, see, I have commanded you.'
field: 6008009
6
8
9
And Joshua sendeth them away, and they go unto the ambush, and abide between Bethel and Ai, on the west of Ai; and Joshua lodgeth on that night in the midst of the people.
field: 6008010
6
8
10
And Joshua riseth early in the morning, and inspecteth the people, and goeth up, he and the elders of Israel, before the people to Ai;
field: 6008011
6
8
11
and all the people of war who `are' with him have gone up, and draw nigh and come in over-against the city, and encamp on the north of Ai; and the valley `is' between him and Ai.
field: 6008012
6
8
12
And he taketh about five thousand men, and setteth them an ambush between Bethel and Ai, on the west of the city;
field: 6008013
6
8
13
and they set the people, all the camp which `is' on the north of the city, and its rear on the west of the city, and Joshua goeth on that night into the midst of the valley.
field: 6008014
6
8
14
And it cometh to pass, when the king of Ai seeth `it', that hasten, and rise early, and go out do the men of the city to meet Israel for battle, he and all his people, at the appointed season, at the front of the plain, and he hath not known that an ambush `is' against him, on the rear of the city.
field: 6008015
6
8
15
And Joshua and all Israel `seem' stricken before them, and flee the way of the wilderness,
field: 6008016
6
8
16
and all the people who `are' in the city are called to pursue after them, and they pursue after Joshua, and are drawn away out of the city,
field: 6008017
6
8
17
and there hath not been left a man in Ai and Bethel who hath not gone out after Israel, and they leave the city open, and pursue after Israel.
field: 6008018
6
8
18
And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, `Stretch out with the javelin which `is' in thy hand towards Ai, for into thy hand I give it;' and Joshua stretcheth out with the javelin which `is' in his hand toward the city,
field: 6008019
6
8
19
and the ambush hath risen `with' haste, out of its place, and they run at the stretching out of his hand, and go into the city, and capture it, and hasten, and burn the city with fire.
field: 6008020
6
8
20
And the men of Ai look behind them, and see, and lo, the smoke of the city hath gone up unto the heavens, and there hath not been in them power to flee hither and thither -- and the people who are fleeing to the wilderness have turned against the pursuer, --
field: 6008021
6
8
21
and Joshua and all Israel have seen that the ambush hath captured the city, and that the smoke of the city hath gone up, and they turn back and smite the men of Ai;
field: 6008022
6
8
22
and these have come out from the city to meet them, and they are in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that, and they smite them till he hath not left to them a remnant and escaped one;
field: 6008023
6
8
23
and the king of Ai they caught alive, and bring him near unto Joshua.
field: 6008024
6
8
24
And it cometh to pass, at Israel's finishing to slay all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness in which they pursued them (and they fall all of them by the mouth of the sword till their consumption), that all Israel turn back to Ai, and smite it by the mouth of the sword;
field: 6008025
6
8
25
and all who fall during the day, of men and of women, are twelve thousand -- all men of Ai.
field: 6008026
6
8
26
And Joshua hath not brought back his hand which he stretched out with the javelin till that he hath devoted all the inhabitants of Ai;
field: 6008027
6
8
27
only, the cattle and the spoil of that city have Israel spoiled for themselves, according to the word of Jehovah which He commanded Joshua.
field: 6008028
6
8
28
And Joshua burneth Ai, and maketh it a heap age-during -- a desolation unto this day;
field: 6008029
6
8
29
and the king of Ai he hath hanged on the tree till even-time, and at the going in of the sun hath Joshua commanded, and they take down his carcase from the tree, and cast it unto the opening of the gate of the city, and raise over it a great heap of stones till this day.
field: 6008030
6
8
30
Then doth Joshua build an altar to Jehovah, God of Israel, in mount Ebal,
field: 6008031
6
8
31
as Moses, servant of Jehovah, commanded the sons of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses -- an altar of whole stones, over which he hath not waved iron -- and they cause to go up upon it burnt-offerings to Jehovah, and sacrifice peace-offerings;
field: 6008032
6
8
32
and he writeth there on the stones the copy of the law of Moses, which he hath written in the presence of the sons of Israel.
field: 6008033
6
8
33
And all Israel, and its elders, and authorities, and its judges, are standing on this side and on that of the ark, over-against the priests, the Levites, bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, as well the sojourner as the native, half of them over-against mount Gerizim, and the half of them over-against mount Ebal, as Moses servant of Jehovah commanded to bless the people of Israel at the first.
field: 6008034
6
8
34
And afterwards he hath proclaimed all the words of the law, the blessing and the reviling, according to all that is written in the book of the law;
field: 6008035
6
8
35
there hath not been a thing of all that Moses commanded which Joshua hath not proclaimed before all the assembly of Israel, and the women, and the infants, and the sojourner who is going in their midst.

And it cometh to pass, when all the kings who `are' beyond the Jordan, in the hill-country, and in the low-country, and in every haven of the great sea, over-against Lebanon, the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, hear --
field: 6009002
6
9
2
that they gather themselves together to fight with Joshua, and with Israel -- one mouth.
field: 6009003
6
9
3
And the inhabitants of Gibeon have heard that which Joshua hath done to Jericho and to Ai,
field: 6009004
6
9
4
and they work, even they, with subtilty, and go, and feign to be ambassadors, and take old sacks for their asses, and wine-bottles, old, and rent, and bound up,
field: 6009005
6
9
5
and sandals, old and patched, on their feet, and old garments upon them, and all the bread of their provision is dry -- it was crumbs.
field: 6009006
6
9
6
And they go unto Joshua, unto the camp at Gilgal, and say unto him, and unto the men of Israel, `From a land far off we have come, and now, make with us a covenant;'
field: 6009007
6
9
7
and the men of Israel say unto the Hivite, `It may be in our midst ye are dwelling, and how do we make with thee a covenant?'
field: 6009008
6
9
8
and they say unto Joshua, `Thy servants we `are'.' And Joshua saith unto them, `Who `are' ye? and whence come ye?'
field: 6009009
6
9
9
And they say unto him, `From a land very far off have thy servants come, for the name of Jehovah thy God, for we have heard His fame, and all that He hath done in Egypt,
field: 6009010
6
9
10
and all that He hath done to the two kings of the Amorite who `are' beyond the Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon, and to Og king of Bashan, who `is' in Ashtaroth.
field: 6009011
6
9
11
`And our elders, and all the inhabitants of our land speak unto us, saying, Take in your hand provision for the way, and go to meet them, and ye have said unto them, Your servants we `are', and now, make with us a covenant;
field: 6009012
6
9
12
this our bread -- hot we provided ourselves with it out of our houses, on the day of our coming out to go unto you, and now, lo, it is dry, and hath been crumbs;
field: 6009013
6
9
13
and these `are' the wine-bottles which we filled, new, and lo, they have rent; and these, our garments and our sandals, have become old, from the exceeding greatness of the way.'
field: 6009014
6
9
14
And the men take of their provision, and the mouth of Jehovah have not asked;
field: 6009015
6
9
15
and Joshua maketh with them peace, and maketh with them a covenant, to keep them alive; and swear to them do the princes of the company.
field: 6009016
6
9
16
And it cometh to pass, at the end of three days after that they have made with them a covenant, that they hear that they `are' their neighbours -- that in their midst they are dwelling.
field: 6009017
6
9
17
And the sons of Israel journey and come in unto their cities on the third day -- and their cities `are' Gibeon, and Chephirah, and Beeroth, and Kirjath-Jearim --
field: 6009018
6
9
18
and the sons of Israel have not smitten them, for sworn to them have the princes of the company by Jehovah God of Israel, and all the company murmur against the princes.
field: 6009019
6
9
19
And all the princes say unto all the company, `We -- we have sworn to them by Jehovah, God of Israel; and now, we are not able to come against them;
field: 6009020
6
9
20
this we do to them, and have kept them alive, and wrath is not upon us, because of the oath which we have sworn to them.'
field: 6009021
6
9
21
And the princes say unto them, `They live, and are hewers of wood and drawers of water for all the company, as the princes spake to them.'
field: 6009022
6
9
22
And Joshua calleth for them, and speaketh unto them, saying, `Why have ye deceived us, saying, We are very far from you, and ye in our midst dwelling?
field: 6009023
6
9
23
and now, cursed are ye, and none of you is cut off `from being' a servant, even hewers of wood and drawers of water, for the house of my God.'
field: 6009024
6
9
24
And they answer Joshua and say, `Because it was certainly declared to thy servants, that Jehovah thy God commanded Moses His servant to give to you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you; and we fear greatly for ourselves because of you, and we do this thing;
field: 6009025
6
9
25
and now, lo, we `are' in thy hand, as `it is' good, and as `it is' right in thine eyes to do to us -- do.'
field: 6009026
6
9
26
And he doth to them so, and delivereth them from the hand of the sons of Israel, and they have not slain them;
field: 6009027
6
9
27
and Joshua maketh them on that day hewers of wood and drawers of water for the company, and for the altar of Jehovah, unto this day, at the place which He doth choose.

1
And it cometh to pass, when Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem heareth that Joshua hath captured Ai, and doth devote it (as he had done to Jericho and to her king so he hath done to Ai and to her king), and that the inhabitants of Gibeon have made peace with Israel, and are in their midst, --
field: 6010002
6
10
2
that they are greatly afraid, because Gibeon `is' a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it `is' greater than Ai, and all its men -- heroes.
field: 6010003
6
10
3
And Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem sendeth unto Hoham king of Hebron, and unto Piram king of Jarmuth, and unto Japhia king of Lachish, and unto Debir king of Eglon, saying,
field: 6010004
6
10
4
`Come up unto me, and help me, and we smite Gibeon, for it hath made peace with Joshua, and with the sons of Israel.'
field: 6010005
6
10
5
And five kings of the Amorite (the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon) are gathered together, and go up, they and all their camps, and encamp against Gibeon, and fight against it.
field: 6010006
6
10
6
And the men of Gibeon send unto Joshua, unto the camp at Gilgal, saying, `Let not thy hand cease from thy servants; come up unto us `with' haste, and give safety to us, and help us; for all the kings of the Amorite, dwelling in the hill-country, have been assembled against us.'
field: 6010007
6
10
7
And Joshua goeth up from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, even all the mighty men of valour.
field: 6010008
6
10
8
And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, `Be not afraid of them, for into thy hand I have given them, there doth not stand a man of them in thy presence.'
field: 6010009
6
10
9
And Joshua cometh in unto them suddenly (all the night he hath gone up from Gilgal),
field: 6010010
6
10
10
and Jehovah doth crush them before Israel, and it smiteth them -- a great smiting -- at Gibeon, and pursueth them the way of the ascent of Beth-Horon, and smiteth them unto Azekah, and unto Makkedah.
field: 6010011
6
10
11
And it cometh to pass, in their fleeing from the face of Israel -- they `are' in the descent of Beth-Horon -- and Jehovah hath cast upon them great stones out of the heavens, unto Azekah, and they die; more are they who have died by the hailstones than they whom the sons of Israel have slain by the sword.
field: 6010012
6
10
12
Then speaketh Joshua to Jehovah in the day of Jehovah's giving up the Amorites before the sons of Israel, and he saith, before the eyes of Israel, `Sun -- in Gibeon stand still; and moon -- in the valley of Ajalon;'
field: 6010013
6
10
13
and the sun standeth still, and the moon hath stood -- till the nation taketh vengeance `on' its enemies; is it not written on the Book of the Upright, `and the sun standeth in the midst of the heavens, and hath not hasted to go in -- as a perfect day?'
field: 6010014
6
10
14
And there hath not been like that day before it or after it, for Jehovah's hearkening to the voice of a man; for Jehovah is fighting for Israel.
field: 6010015
6
10
15
And Joshua turneth back, and all Israel with him, unto the camp at Gilgal.
field: 6010016
6
10
16
And these five kings flee, and are hidden in a cave at Makkedah,
field: 6010017
6
10
17
and it is declared to Joshua, saying, `The five kings have been found hidden in a cave at Makkedah.'
field: 6010018
6
10
18
And Joshua saith, `Roll great stones unto the mouth of the cave, and appoint over it men to watch them;
field: 6010019
6
10
19
and ye, stand not, pursue after your enemies, and ye have smitten the hindmost of them; suffer them not to go in unto their cities, for Jehovah your God hath given them into your hand.'
field: 6010020
6
10
20
And it cometh to pass, when Joshua and the sons of Israel finish to smite them -- a very great smiting, till they are consumed, and the remnant who have remained of them go in unto the fenced cities,
field: 6010021
6
10
21
that all the people turn back to the camp, unto Joshua, `at' Makkedah, in peace; none moved sharply his tongue against the sons of Israel.
field: 6010022
6
10
22
And Joshua saith, `Open ye the mouth of the cave, and bring out unto me these five kings from the cave;'
field: 6010023
6
10
23
and they do so, and bring out unto him these five kings from the cave: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon.
field: 6010024
6
10
24
And it cometh to pass, when they bring out these kings unto Joshua, that Joshua calleth unto every man of Israel, and saith unto the captains of the men of war, who have gone with him, `Draw near, set your feet on the necks of these kings;' and they draw near, and set their feet on their necks.
field: 6010025
6
10
25
And Joshua saith unto them, `Fear not, nor be affrighted; be strong and courageous; for thus doth Jehovah do to all your enemies with whom ye are fighting;'
field: 6010026
6
10
26
and Joshua smiteth them afterwards, and putteth them to death, and hangeth them on five trees; and they are hanging on the trees till the evening.
field: 6010027
6
10
27
And it cometh to pass, at the time of the going in of the sun, Joshua hath commanded, and they take them down from off the trees, and cast them unto the cave where they had been hid, and put great stones on the mouth of the cave till this very day.
field: 6010028
6
10
28
And Makkedah hath Joshua captured on that day, and he smiteth it by the mouth of the sword, and its king he hath devoted, them and every person who `is' in it -- he hath not left a remnant; and he doth to the king of Makkedah as he did to the king of Jericho.
field: 6010029
6
10
29
And Joshua passeth over, and all Israel with him, from Makkedah `to' Libnah, and fighteth with Libnah;
field: 6010030
6
10
30
and Jehovah giveth also it into the hand of Israel, and its king, and it smiteth it by the mouth of the sword, and every person who `is' in it -- it left not in it a remnant; and it doth to its king as it did to the king of Jericho.
field: 6010031
6
10

And Joshua passeth over, and all Israel with him, from Libnah to Lachish, and encampeth against it, and fighteth against it;

And Jehovah giveth Lachish into the hand of Israel, and it captureth it on the second day, and smiteth it by the mouth of the sword, and every person who `is' in it, according to all that it did to Libnah.

and capture it, and smite it by the mouth of the sword, and its king, and all its cities, and every person who `is' in it -- he hath not left a remnant -- according to all that he did to Eglon -- and doth devote it, and every person who `is' in it.

And Joshua turneth back, and all Israel with him, to Debir, and fighteth against it,

and captureth it, and its king, and all its cities, and they smite them by the mouth of the sword, and devote every person who `is' in it -- he hath not left a remnant; as he did to Hebron so he did to Debir, and to its king, and as he did to Libnah, and to its king.
field: 6010040
6
10

And Joshua smiteth all the land of the hill-country, and of the south, and of the low-country, and of the springs, and all their kings -- he hath not left a remnant, and all that doth breathe he hath devoted, as Jehovah, God of Israel, commanded.
field: 6010041
6
10
41
And Joshua smiteth them from Kadesh-Barnea, even unto Gaza, and all the land of Goshen, even unto Gibeon;
field: 6010042
6
10
42
and all these kings and their land hath Joshua captured `at' one time, for Jehovah, God of Israel, is fighting for Israel.

and Joshua turneth back, and all Israel with him, unto the camp at Gilgal.

and they go out, they and all their camps with them, a people numerous, as the sand which `is' on the sea-shore for multitude, and horse and charioteer very many;
field: 6011005
6
11
5
and all these kings are met together, and they come and encamp together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.
field: 6011006
6
11
6
And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, `Be not afraid of their presence, for to-morrow about this time I am giving all of them wounded before Israel; their horses thou dost hough, and their chariots burn with fire.'
field: 6011007
6
11
7
And Joshua cometh, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly, and they fall on them;
field: 6011008
6
11
8
and Jehovah giveth them into the hand of Israel, and they smite them and pursue them unto the great Zidon, and unto Misrephoth-Maim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward, and they smite them, till he hath not left to them a remnant;

and Joshua doth to them as Jehovah said to him; their horses he hath houghed, and their chariots burnt with fire.
field: 6011010
6
11
10
And Joshua turneth back at that time, and captureth Hazor, and its king he hath smitten by the sword; for Hazor formerly `is' head of all these kingdoms;
field: 6011011
6
11
11
and they smite every person who `is' in it by the mouth of the sword; he hath devoted -- he hath not left any one breathing, and Hazor he hath burnt with fire;
field: 6011012
6
11
12
and all the cities of these kings, and all their kings, hath Joshua captured, and he smiteth them by the mouth of the sword; he devoted them, as Moses, servant of Jehovah, commanded.
field: 6011013
6
11
13
Only, all the cities which are standing by their hill, Israel hath not burned them, save Hazor only, `it' hath Joshua burnt;
field: 6011014
6
11
14
and all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, have the sons of Israel spoiled for themselves; only, every human being they have smitten by the mouth of the sword, till their destroying them; they have not left any one breathing.
field: 6011015
6
11
15
As Jehovah commanded Moses His servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so hath Joshua done; he hath not turned aside a thing of all that Jehovah commanded Moses.
field: 6011016
6
11
16
And Joshua taketh all this land: the hill-country, and all the south, and all the land of Goshen, and the low country, and the plain, even the hill-country of Israel and its low lands,
field: 6011017
6
11

field: 6011018
6
11
18
Many days hath Joshua made with all these kings war;
field: 6011019
6
11
19
there hath not been a city which made peace with the sons of Israel save the Hivite, inhabitants of Gibeon; the whole they have taken in battle;
field: 6011020
6
11
20
for from Jehovah it hath been to strengthen their heart, to meet in battle with Israel, in order to devote them, so that they have no grace, but in order to destroy them, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
field: 6011021
6
11
21
And Joshua cometh at that time, and cutteth off the Anakim from the hill-country, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, even from all the hill-country of Judah, and from all the hill-country of Israel; with their cities hath Joshua devoted them.
field: 6011022

There hath not been left Anakim in the land of the sons of Israel; only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, were they left.
field: 6011023

And Joshua taketh the whole of the land, according to all that Jehovah hath spoken unto Moses, and Joshua giveth it for an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions, by their tribes; and the land hath rest from war.

field: 6017017

field: 6017018
6
17
18
because the mountain is thine; because it `is' a forest -- thou hast prepared it, and its outgoings have been thine; because thou dost dispossess the Canaanite, though it hath chariots of iron -- though it `is' strong.'
field: 6018001

And there are left among the sons of Israel who have not shared their inheritance, seven tribes,
field: 6018003

and Joshua saith unto the sons of Israel, `Till when are ye remiss to go in to possess the land which He hath given to you, Jehovah, God of your fathers?
field: 6018004
6
18
4
Give for you three men for a tribe, and I send them, and they rise and go up and down through the land, and describe it according to their inheritance, and come in unto me,
field: 6018005
6
18
5
and they have divided it into seven portions -- Judah doth stay by its border on the south, and the house of Joseph do stay by their border on the north --
field: 6018006
6
18
6
and ye describe the land `in' seven portions, and have brought `it' in unto me hither, and I have cast for you a lot here before Jehovah our God;
field: 6018007
6
18
7
for there is no portion to the Levites in your midst, for the priesthood of Jehovah `is' their inheritance, and Gad, and Reuben, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh received their inheritance beyond the Jordan eastward, which Moses servant of Jehovah gave to them.'
field: 6018008
6
18

And the men rise and go; and Joshua commandeth those who are going to describe the land, saying, `Go, and walk up and down through the land, and describe it, and turn back unto me, and here I cast for you a lot before Jehovah in Shiloh.'
field: 6018009
6
18

And the men go, and pass over through the land, and describe it by cities, in seven portions, on a book, and they come in unto Joshua, unto the camp, `at' Shiloh.

And the border of the sons of Dan goeth out from them, and the sons of Dan go up and fight with Leshem, and capture it, and smite it by the mouth of the sword, and possess it, and dwell in it, and call Leshem, Dan, according to the name of Dan their father.

These `are' the inheritances which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the sons of Israel, have caused to inherit by lot, in Shiloh, before Jehovah, at the opening of the tent of meeting; and they finish to apportion the land.

And Jehovah speaketh unto Joshua, saying,
field: 6020002
6
20
2
`Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Give for you cities of refuge, as I have spoken unto you by the hand of Moses,
field: 6020003

for the fleeing thither of a man-slayer smiting life inadvertently, without knowledge; and they have been to you for a refuge from the redeemer of blood.
field: 6020004
6
20

`When `one' hath fled unto one of these cities, and hath stood `at' the opening of the gate of the city, and hath spoken in the ears of the elders of that city his matter, then they have gathered him into the city unto them, and have given to him a place, and he hath dwelt with them.
field: 6020005
6
20
5
`And when the redeemer of blood doth pursue after him, then they do not shut up the man-slayer into his hand, for without knowledge he hath smitten his neighbour, and is not hating him hitherto;

6
20
6
and he hath dwelt in that city till his standing before the company for judgment, till the death of the chief priest who is in those days -- then doth the man-slayer turn back and hath come unto his city, and unto his house, unto the city whence he fled.'

And they sanctify Kedesh in Galilee, in the hill-country of Naphtali, and Shechem in the hill-country of Ephraim, and Kirjath-Arba (it `is' Hebron), in the hill-country of Judah;

And Jehovah giveth to Israel the whole of the land which He hath sworn to give to their fathers, and they possess it, and dwell in it;

6
21
44
and Jehovah giveth rest to them round about, according to all that which He hath sworn to their fathers, and there hath not stood a man in their presence of all their enemies, the whole of their enemies hath Jehovah given into their hand;

there hath not fallen a thing of all the good thing which Jehovah spake unto the house of Israel -- the whole hath come.

ye have not left your brethren these many days unto this day, and have kept the charge -- the command of Jehovah your God.

`And, now, Jehovah your God hath given rest to your brethren, as He spake to them; and now, turn ye, and go for yourselves to your tents, unto the land of your possession, which Moses, servant of Jehovah, hath given to you beyond the Jordan.

Only, be very watchful to do the command and the law which Moses, servant of Jehovah, commanded you, to love Jehovah your God, and to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commands, and to cleave to Him, and to serve Him, with all your heart, and with all your soul.'

And Joshua blesseth them, and sendeth them away, and they go unto their tents.

And to the half of the tribe of Manasseh hath Moses given, in Bashan, and to its `other' half hath Joshua given with their brethren beyond the Jordan westward; and also when Joshua hath sent them away unto their tents, then he doth bless them,

and speak unto them, saying, `With great riches turn ye back unto your tents, and with very much cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with brass, and with iron, and with very much raiment; divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.'

And the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, turn back and go from the sons of Israel out of Shiloh, which `is' in the land of Canaan, to go unto the land of Gilead, unto the land of their possession, in which they have possession, according to the command of Jehovah, by the hand of Moses;
field: 6022010
6
22
10
and they come in unto the districts of the Jordan, which `are' in the land of Canaan, and the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, build there an altar by the Jordan -- a great altar for appearance.
field: 6022011
6
22
11
And the sons of Israel hear, saying, `Lo, the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, have built the altar over-against the land of Canaan, on the districts of the Jordan, at the passage of the sons of Israel.'

`Thus said all the company of Jehovah, What `is' this trespass which ye have trespassed against the God of Israel, to turn back to-day from after Jehovah, by your building for you an altar, for your rebelling to-day against Jehovah?

22
17
Is the iniquity of Peor little to us, from which we have not been cleansed till this day -- and the plague is in the company of Jehovah,

that ye turn back to-day from after Jehovah? and it hath been -- ye rebel to-day against Jehovah -- and to-morrow against all the company of Israel He is wroth.

19
`And surely, if the land of your possession is unclean, pass over for you unto the land of the possession of Jehovah, where the tabernacle of Jehovah hath tabernacled, and have possession in our midst; and against Jehovah rebel not, and against us rebel not, by your building for you an altar, besides the altar of Jehovah our God.

And the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, answer and speak with the heads of the thousands of Israel:

`The God of gods -- Jehovah, the God of gods -- Jehovah, He is knowing, and Israel, he doth know, if in rebellion, and if in trespass against Jehovah (Thou dost not save us this day!)

`we are' building for ourselves an altar to turn back from after Jehovah, and if to cause to go up on it burnt-offering and present, and if to make on it peace-offerings -- Jehovah Himself doth require `it'.

`And if not, from fear of `this' thing we have done it, saying, Hereafter your sons do speak to ours sons, saying, What to you and to Jehovah God of Israel?

for a border hath Jehovah put between us and you, O sons of Reuben, and sons of Gad -- Jordan; ye have no portion in Jehovah -- and your sons have caused our sons to cease, not to fear Jehovah.
field: 6022026
6
22
26
`And we say, Pray let us prepare for ourselves to build the altar -- not for burnt-offering nor for sacrifice --

6
22
27
but a witness it `is' between us and you, and between our generations after us, to do the service of Jehovah before Him with our burnt-offerings, and with our sacrifices, and with our peace-offerings, and your sons do not say hereafter to our sons, Ye have no portion in Jehovah.

`And we say, And it hath been, when they say `so' unto us, and unto our generations hereafter, that we have said, See the pattern of the altar of Jehovah, which our fathers made -- not for burnt-offering nor for sacrifice -- but a witness it `is' between us and you.

`Far be it from us to rebel against Jehovah, and to turn back to-day from after Jehovah, to build an altar for burnt-offering, for present, and for sacrifice, apart from the altar of Jehovah our God, which `is' before His tabernacle.'

And Phinehas the priest, and the princes of the company, and the heads of the thousands of Israel, who `are' with him, hear the words which the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the sons of Manasseh have spoken, and it is good in their eyes.
field: 6022031
6

31
And Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest saith unto the sons of Reuben, and unto the sons of Gad, and unto the sons of Manasseh, `To-day we have known that Jehovah `is' in our midst, because ye have not committed against Jehovah this trespass -- then ye have delivered the sons of Israel out of the hand of Jehovah.'
field: 6022032

22
32
And Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes, turn back from the sons of Reuben, and from the sons of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, unto the land of Canaan, unto the sons of Israel, and bring them back word;
field: 6022033
6
22
33
and the thing is good in the eyes of the sons of Israel, and the sons of Israel bless God, and have not said to go up against them to war, to destroy the land which the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, are dwelling in.
field: 6022034

And the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad proclaim concerning the altar, that `it `is' a witness between us that Jehovah `is' God.'

And it cometh to pass, many days after that Jehovah hath given rest to Israel from all their enemies round about, that Joshua is old, entering into days,

one man of you doth pursue a thousand, for Jehovah your God `is' He who is fighting for you, as He hath spoken to you;

know certainly that Jehovah your God is not continuing to dispossess these nations from before you, and they have been to you for a gin, and for a snare, and for a scourge, in your sides, and for thorns in your eyes, till ye perish from off this good ground which Jehovah your God hath given to you.

and they cry unto Jehovah, and He setteth thick darkness between you and the Egyptians, and bringeth on them the sea, and covereth them, and your eyes see that which I have done in Egypt; and ye dwell in a wilderness many days.

`And I bring you in unto the land of the Amorite who is dwelling beyond the Jordan, and they fight with you, and I give them into your hand, and ye possess their land, and I destroy them out of your presence.

`And Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab, riseth and fighteth against Israel, and sendeth and calleth for Balaam son of Beor, to revile you,

`And ye pass over the Jordan, and come in unto Jericho, and fight against you do the possessors of Jericho -- the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Girgashite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite -- and I give them into your hand.
field: 6024012

And I send before you the hornet, and it casteth them out from your presence -- two kings of the Amorite -- not by thy sword, nor by thy bow.

`And I give to you a land for which thou hast not laboured, and cities which ye have not built, and ye dwell in them; of vineyards and olive-yards which ye have not planted ye are eating.

`And now, fear ye Jehovah, and serve Him, in perfection and in truth, and turn aside the gods which your fathers served beyond the River, and in Egypt, and serve ye Jehovah;

24
15
and if wrong in your eyes to serve Jehovah -- choose for you to-day whom ye do serve; -- whether the gods whom your fathers served, which `are' beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorite in whose land ye are dwelling; and I and my house -- we serve Jehovah.'
field: 6024016
6
24
16
And the people answer and say, `Far be it from us to forsake Jehovah, to serve other gods;
field: 6024017
6
24
17
for Jehovah our God `is' He who is bringing us and our fathers up out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants, and who hath done before our eyes these great signs, and doth keep us in all the way in which we have gone, and among all the peoples through whose midst we passed;
field: 6024018
6

and Jehovah casteth out the whole of the peoples, even the Amorite inhabiting the land, from our presence; we also do serve Jehovah, for He `is' our God.'
field: 6024019
6
24
19
And Joshua saith unto the people, `Ye are not able to serve Jehovah, for a God most holy He `is'; a zealous God He `is'; He doth not bear with your transgression and with your sins.
field: 6024020
6
24
20
When ye forsake Jehovah, and have served gods of a stranger, then He hath turned back and done evil to you, and consumed you, after that He hath done good to you.'
field: 6024021
6
24
21
And the people saith unto Joshua, `No, but Jehovah we do serve.'
field: 6024022
6
24

And Joshua saith unto the people, `Witnesses ye are against yourselves, that ye have chosen for you Jehovah to serve Him (and they say, `Witnesses!')
field: 6024023
6
24
23
and, now, turn aside the gods of the stranger which `are' in your midst, and incline your heart unto Jehovah, God of Israel.'

And the people say unto Joshua, `Jehovah our God we serve, and to His voice we hearken.'
field: 6024025

25
And Joshua maketh a covenant with the people on that day, and layeth on it a statute and an ordinance, in Shechem.
field: 6024026
6
24
26
And Joshua writeth these words in the Book of the Law of God, and taketh a great stone, and raiseth it up there under the oak which `is' in the sanctuary of Jehovah.
field: 6024027
6
24
27
And Joshua saith unto all the people, `Lo, this stone is against us for a witness, for it hath heard all the sayings of Jehovah which He hath spoken with us, and it hath been against you for a witness, lest ye lie against your God.'

And Joshua sendeth the people away, each to his inheritance.

And it cometh to pass, after these things, that Joshua son of Nun, servant of Jehovah, dieth, a son of a hundred and ten years,

32

And Jehovah saith, `Judah doth go up; lo, I have given the land into his hand.'

and they find Adoni-Bezek in Bezek, and fight against him, and smite the Canaanite and the Perizzite.

And Adoni-Bezek fleeth, and they pursue after him, and seize him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes,

And the sons of Judah fight against Jerusalem, and capture it, and smite it by the mouth of the sword, and the city they have sent into fire;

and afterwards have the sons of Judah gone down to fight against the Canaanite, inhabiting the hill-country, and the south, and the low country;

And he goeth thence unto the inhabitants of Debir (and the name of Debir formerly `is' Kirjath-Sepher),

and Caleb saith, `He who smiteth Kirjath-Sepher -- and hath captured it -- then I have given to him Achsah my daughter for a wife.'

And Othniel son of Kenaz, younger brother of Caleb, doth capture it, and he giveth to him Achsah his daughter for a wife.

And it cometh to pass in her coming in, that she persuadeth him to ask from her father the field, and she lighteth from off the ass, and Caleb saith to her, `What -- to thee?'

And Judah captureth Gaza and its border, and Askelon and its border, and Ekron and its border;

1
19
and Jehovah is with Judah, and he occupieth the hill-country, but not to dispossess the inhabitants of the valley, for they have chariots of iron.

And they give to Caleb Hebron, as Moses hath spoken, and he dispossesseth thence the three sons of Anak.

and the watchers see a man coming out from the city, and say to him, `Shew us, we pray thee, the entrance of the city, and we have done with thee kindness.'
field: 7001025
7

25
And he sheweth them the entrance of the city, and they smite the city by the mouth of the sword, and the man and all his family they have sent away;

27
And Manasseh hath not occupied Beth-Shean and its towns, and Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Iblaim and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns, and the Canaanite is desirous to dwell in that land;

And I also have said, I do not cast them out from your presence, and they have been to you for adversaries, and their gods are to you for a snare.'

And it cometh to pass, when the messenger of Jehovah speaketh these words unto all the sons of Israel, that the people lift up their voice and weep,

and they call the name of that place Bochim, and sacrifice there to Jehovah.

And Joshua son of Nun, servant of Jehovah, dieth, a son of a hundred and ten years,

and also all that generation have been gathered unto their fathers, and another generation riseth after them who have not known Jehovah, and even the work which He hath done to Israel.
field: 7002011

11
And the sons of Israel do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and serve the Baalim,
field: 7002012
7
2
12
and forsake Jehovah, God of their fathers, who bringeth them out from the land of Egypt, and go after other gods (of the gods of the peoples who `are' round about them), and bow themselves to them, and provoke Jehovah,

7
2
13
yea, they forsake Jehovah, and do service to Baal and to Ashtaroth.
field: 7002014

And the anger of Jehovah burneth against Israel, and He giveth them into the hand of spoilers, and they spoil them, and He selleth them into the hand of their enemies round about, and they have not been able any more to stand before their enemies;
field: 7002015
7
2
15
in every `place' where they have gone out, the hand of Jehovah hath been against them for evil, as Jehovah hath spoken, and as Jehovah hath sworn to them, and they are distressed -- greatly.

16
And Jehovah raiseth up judges, and they save them from the hand of their spoilers;
field: 7002017
7

17
and also unto their judges they have not hearkened, but have gone a-whoring after other gods, and bow themselves to them; they have turned aside `with' haste out of the way `in' which their fathers walked to obey the commands of Jehovah -- they have not done so.
field: 7002018
7
2
18
And when Jehovah raised up to them judges -- then was Jehovah with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for it repenteth Jehovah, because of their groaning from the presence of their oppressors, and of those thrusting them away.
field: 7002019
7
2
19
And it hath come to pass, at the death of the judge -- they turn back and have done corruptly above their fathers, to go after other gods, to serve them, and to bow themselves to them; they have not fallen from their doings, and from their stiff way.
field: 7002020
7
2
20
And the anger of Jehovah doth burn against Israel, and He saith, `Because that this nation have transgressed My covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened to My voice --

21
I also continue not to dispossess any from before them of the nations which Joshua hath left when he dieth,

in order to try Israel by them, whether they are keeping the way of Jehovah, to go in it, as their fathers kept `it' or not.'

And Jehovah leaveth these nations, so as not to dispossess them hastily, and did not give them into the hand of Joshua.

And these `are' the nations which Jehovah left, to try Israel by them, all who have not known all the wars of Canaan;

five princes of the Philistines, and all the Canaanite, and the Zidonian, and the Hivite inhabiting mount Lebanon, from mount Baal-Hermon unto the entering in of Hamath;

and they are to prove Israel by them, to know whether they obey the commands of Jehovah that He commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.

And the sons of Israel have dwelt in the midst of the Canaanite, the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite,

7
3
6
and take their daughters to them for wives, and their daughters have given to their sons, and they serve their gods;

and the sons of Israel do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and forget Jehovah their God, and serve the Baalim and the shrines.

And the anger of Jehovah burneth against Israel, and He selleth them into the hand of Chushan-Rishathaim king of Aram-Naharaim, and the sons of Israel serve Chushan-Rishathaim eight years;

9
and the sons of Israel cry unto Jehovah, and Jehovah raiseth a saviour to the sons of Israel, and he saveth them -- Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother;

7
3
10
and the Spirit of Jehovah is upon him, and he judgeth Israel, and goeth out to battle, and Jehovah giveth unto his hand Chushan-Rishathaim king of Aram, and strong is his hand against Chushan-Rishathaim;

and the land resteth forty years. And Othniel son of Kenaz dieth,
field: 7003012
7

12
and the sons of Israel add to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah; and Jehovah strengtheneth Eglon king of Moab against Israel, because that they have done the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah;

7
3
13
and he gathereth unto him the Bene-Ammon and Amalek, and goeth and smiteth Israel, and they possess the city of palms;

and the sons of Israel serve Eglon king of Moab eighteen years.

And the sons of Israel cry unto Jehovah, and Jehovah raiseth to them a saviour, Ehud son of Gera, a Benjamite (a man -- shut of his right hand), and the sons of Israel send by his hand a present to Eglon king of Moab;
field: 7003016
7
3
16
and Ehud maketh for himself a sword, and it hath two mouths (a cubit `is' its length), and he girdeth it under his long robe on his right thigh;

7
3
17
and he bringeth near the present to Eglon king of Moab, and Eglon `is' a very fat man.
field: 7003018

3
18
And it cometh to pass, when he hath finished to bring near the present, that he sendeth away the people bearing the present,
field: 7003019
7
3
19
and he himself hath turned back from the graven images which `are' at Gilgal, and saith, `A secret word I have unto thee, O king;' and he saith, `Hush!' and go out from him do all those standing by him.
field: 7003020
7
3
20
And Ehud hath come unto him, and he is sitting in the upper chamber of the wall which he hath for himself, and Ehud saith, `A word of God I have unto thee;' and he riseth from off the throne;
field: 7003021
7
3
21
and Ehud putteth forth his left hand, and taketh the sword from off his right thigh, and striketh it into his belly;

7
3
22
and the haft also goeth in after the blade, and the fat shutteth on the blade, that he hath not drawn the sword out of his belly, and it goeth out at the fundament.
field: 7003023
7
3
23
And Ehud goeth out at the porch, and shutteth the doors of the upper chamber upon him, and hath bolted `it';

7
3
24
and he hath gone out, and his servants have come in, and look, and lo, the doors of the upper chamber are bolted, and they say, `He is only covering his feet in the inner chamber of the wall.'
field: 7003025
7

25
And they stay till confounded, and lo, he is not opening the doors of the upper chamber, and they take the key, and open, and lo, their lord is fallen to the earth -- dead.
field: 7003026
7
3
26
And Ehud escaped during their tarrying, and hath passed by the images, and is escaped to Seirath.
field: 7003027
7
3
27
And it cometh to pass, in his coming in, that he bloweth with a trumpet in the hill-country of Ephraim, and go down with him do the sons of Israel from the hill-country, and he before them;

28
and he saith unto them, `Pursue after me, for Jehovah hath given your enemies, the Moabites, into your hand;' and they go down after him, and capture the passages of the Jordan towards Moab, and have not permitted a man to pass over.
field: 7003029
7

29
And they smite Moab at that time, about ten thousand men, all robust, and every one a man of valour, and not a man hath escaped,

and Moab is humbled in that day under the hand of Israel; and the land resteth eighty years.

And the sons of Israel add to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah when Ehud is dead,

and Jehovah selleth them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who hath reigned in Hazor, and the head of his host `is' Sisera, and he is dwelling in Harosheth of the Goyim;

And she sendeth and calleth for Barak son of Abinoam, out of Kedesh-Naphtali, and saith unto him, `Hath not Jehovah, God of Israel, commanded? go, and thou hast drawn towards mount Tabor, and hast taken with thee ten thousand men, out of the sons of Naphtali, and out of the sons of Zebulun,

and encamp against them, and destroy the increase of the land till thine entering Gaza; and they leave no sustenance in Israel, either sheep, or ox, or ass;

that Jehovah sendeth a man, a prophet, unto the sons of Israel, and he saith to them, `Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, I -- I have brought you up out of Egypt, and I bring you out from a house of servants,

and the messenger of Jehovah appeareth unto him, and saith unto him, `Jehovah `is' with thee, O mighty one of valour.'

And Gideon saith unto him, `O, my lord -- and Jehovah is with us! -- and why hath all this found us? and where `are' all His wonders which our fathers recounted to us, saying, Hath not Jehovah brought us up out of Egypt? and now Jehovah hath left us, and doth give us into the hand of Midian.'

And Jehovah turneth unto him and saith, `Go in this -- thy power; and thou hast saved Israel out of the hand of Midian -- have not I sent thee.'

And he saith unto him, `O, my lord, wherewith do I save Israel? lo, my chief `is' weak in Manasseh, and I the least in the house of my father.'

And Jehovah saith unto him, `Because I am with thee -- thou hast smitten the Midianites as one man.'

And the messenger of Jehovah putteth forth the end of the staff which `is' in His hand, and cometh against the flesh, and against the unleavened things, and the fire goeth up out of the rock and consumeth the flesh and the unleavened things -- and the messenger of Jehovah hath gone from his eyes.

And it cometh to pass, on that night, that Jehovah saith to him, `Take the young ox which `is' to thy father, and the second bullock of seven years, and thou hast thrown down the altar of Baal which `is' to thy father, and the shrine which `is' by it thou dost cut down,
field: 7006026

and thou hast built an altar to Jehovah thy God on the top of this stronghold, by the arrangement, and hast taken the second bullock, and caused to ascend a burnt-offering with the wood of the shrine which thou cuttest down.'
field: 7006027

And Gideon taketh ten men of his servants, and doth as Jehovah hath spoken unto him, and it cometh to pass, because he hath been afraid of the house of his father, and the men of the city, to do `it' by day, that he doth `it' by night.
field: 7006028

And the men of the city rise early in the morning, and lo, broken down hath been the altar of Baal, and the shrine which is by it hath been cut down, and the second bullock hath been offered on the altar which is built.

And they say one to another, `Who hath done this thing?' and they inquire and seek, and they say, `Gideon son of Joash hath done this thing.'

And the men of the city say unto Joash, `Bring out thy son, and he dieth, because he hath broken down the altar of Baal, and because he hath cut down the shrine which `is' by it.'

7
6
31
And Joash saith to all who have stood against him, `Ye, do ye plead for Baal? ye -- do ye save him? he who pleadeth for him is put to death during the morning; if he `is' a god he himself doth plead against him, because he hath broken down his altar.'

And he calleth him, on that day, Jerubbaal, saying, `The Baal doth plead against him, because he hath broken down his altar.'

And all Midian and Amalek and the sons of the east have been gathered together, and pass over, and encamp in the valley of Jezreel,

and the Spirit of Jehovah hath clothed Gideon, and he bloweth with a trumpet, and Abi-Ezer is called after him;

And Gideon saith unto God, `If Thou art Saviour of Israel by my hand, as Thou hast spoken,

And Gideon saith unto God, `Let not Thine anger burn against me, and I speak only this time; let me try, I pray Thee, only this time with the fleece -- let there be, I pray Thee, drought on the fleece alone, and on all the earth let there be dew.'

And God doth so on that night, and there is drought on the fleece alone, and on all the earth there hath been dew.

And Jerubbaal (he `is' Gideon) riseth early, and all the people who `are' with him, and they encamp by the well of Harod, and the camp of Midian hath been on the south of him, on the height of Moreh, in the valley.
field: 7007002

And Jehovah saith unto Gideon, `Too many `are' the people who `are' with thee for My giving Midian into their hand, lest Israel beautify itself against Me, saying, My hand hath given salvation to me;

7
7

and now, call, I pray thee, in the ears of the people, saying, Whoso `is' afraid and trembling, let him turn back and go early from mount Gilead;' and there turn back of the people twenty and two thousand, and ten thousand have been left.

And Jehovah saith unto Gideon, `Yet `are' the people too many; bring them down unto the water, and I refine it for thee there; and it hath been, he of whom I say unto thee, This doth go with thee -- he doth go with thee; and any of whom I say unto thee, This doth not go with thee -- he doth not go.'
field: 7007005
7

And he bringeth down the people unto the water, and Jehovah saith unto Gideon, `Every one who lappeth with his tongue of the water as the dog lappeth -- thou dost set him apart; also every one who boweth on his knees to drink.'
field: 7007006
7
7

And the number of those lapping with their hand unto their mouth is three hundred men, and all the rest of the people have bowed down on their knees to drink water.

And Jehovah saith unto Gideon, `By the three hundred men who are lapping I save you, and have given Midian into thy hand, and all the people go, each to his place.'
field: 7007008
7
7
8
And the people take the provision in their hand, and their trumpets, and every man of Israel he hath sent away, each to his tents; and on the three hundred men he hath kept hold, and the camp of Midian hath been by him at the lower part of the valley.
field: 7007009
7
7

And it cometh to pass, on that night, that Jehovah saith unto him, `Rise, go down into the camp, for I have given it into thy hand;

10
and if thou art afraid to go down -- go down, thou and Phurah thy young man, unto the camp,

and thou hast heard what they speak, and afterwards are thy hands strengthened, and thou hast gone down against the camp.' And he goeth down, he and Phurah his young man, unto the extremity of the fifties who `are' in the camp;

and Midian and Amalek, and all the sons of the east are lying in the valley, as the locust for multitude, and of their camels there is no number, as sand which `is' on the sea-shore for multitude.

And Gideon cometh in, and lo, a man is recounting to his companion a dream, and saith, `Lo, a dream I have dreamed, and lo, a cake of barley-bread is turning itself over into the camp of Midian, and it cometh in unto the tent, and smiteth it, and it falleth, and turneth it upwards, and the tent hath fallen.'

And his companion answereth and saith, `This is nothing save the sword of Gideon son of Joash, a man of Israel; God hath given into his hand Midian and all the camp.'
field: 7007015
7
7
15
And it cometh to pass, when Gideon heareth the narration of the dream and its interpretation, that he boweth himself, and turneth back unto the camp of Israel, and saith, `Rise ye, for Jehovah hath given into your hand the camp of Midian.'
field: 7007016
7
7
16
And he divideth the three hundred men `into' three detachments, and putteth trumpets into the hand of all of them, and empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.

7
7
17
And he saith unto them, `Look at me, and thus do; and lo, I am coming into the extremity of the camp -- and it hath been -- as I do so ye do;

and I have blown with a trumpet -- I and all who `are' with me, and ye have blown with trumpets, even ye, round about all the camp, and have said, For Jehovah and for Gideon.'

And Gideon cometh -- and the hundred men who `are' with him -- into the extremity of the camp, `at' the beginning of the middle watch (it hath only just confirmed the watchmen), and they blow with trumpets -- dashing in pieces also the pitchers which `are' in their hand;
field: 7007020
7
7
20
and the three detachments blow with trumpets, and break the pitchers, and keep hold with their left hand on the lamps, and with their right hand on the trumpets to blow, and they cry, `The sword of Jehovah and of Gideon.'

7
7
21
And they stand each in his place, round about the camp, and all the camp runneth, and they shout, and flee;

7
7
22
and the three hundred blow the trumpets, and Jehovah setteth the sword of each against his companion, even through all the camp; and the camp fleeth unto Beth-Shittah, at Zererath, unto the border of Abel-Meholah, by Tabbath.
field: 7007023

And the men of Israel are called from Naphtali, and from Asher, and from all Manasseh, and pursue after Midian.

And messengers hath sent Gideon into all the hill-country of Ephraim, saying, `Come down to meet Midian, and capture before them the waters unto Beth-Barah, and the Jordan;' and every man of Ephraim is called, and they capture the waters unto Beth-Barah, and the Jordan,

7
7
25
and they capture two of the heads of Midian, Oreb, and Zeeb, and slay Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they have slain at the wine-vat of Zeeb, and they pursue unto Midian; and the heads of Oreb and Zeeb they have brought in unto Gideon beyond the Jordan.

7

And the men of Ephraim say unto him, `What `is' this thing thou hast done to us -- not to call for us when thou didst go to fight with Midian?' and they strive with him severely;

7
8
2
and he saith unto them, `What have I done now like you? are not the gleanings of Ephraim better than the harvest of Abi-Ezer?

Into your hand hath God given the heads of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb; and what have I been able to do like you?' Then their temper desisted from off him in his speaking this thing.

And Gideon cometh in unto the Jordan, passing over, he and the three hundred men who `are' with him -- wearied, and pursuing,

and he saith to the men of Succoth, `Give, I pray you, cakes of bread to the people who `are' at my feet, for they `are' wearied, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna kings of Midian.'

And the heads of Succoth say, `Is the hand of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thy hand, that we give to thy host bread?'

And Gideon saith, `Therefore -- in Jehovah's giving Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand -- I have threshed your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness, and with the threshing instruments.'

And he goeth up thence `to' Penuel, and speaketh unto them thus; and the men of Penuel answer him as the men of Succoth answered.

And he speaketh also to the men of Penuel, saying, `In my turning back in peace, I break down this tower.'

And Gideon goeth up the way of those who tabernacle in tents, on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and smiteth the camp, and the camp was confident;

7
8
12
and Zebab and Zalmunna flee, and he pursueth after them, and captureth the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and all the camp he hath caused to tremble.
field: 7008013
7
8
13
And Gideon son of Joash turneth back from the battle, at the going up of the sun,
field: 7008014
7
8
14
and captureth a young man of the men of Succoth, and asketh him, and he describeth unto him the heads of Succoth, and its elders -- seventy and seven men.
field: 7008015
7
8
15
And he cometh in unto the men of Succoth, and saith, `Lo Zebah and Zalmunna, with whom ye reproached me, saying, Is the hand of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thy hand that we give to thy men who `are' wearied bread?'
field: 7008016
7
8
16
And he taketh the elders of the city, and the thorns of the wilderness, and the threshing instruments, and teacheth by them the men of Succoth,
field: 7008017
7
8
17
and the tower of Penuel he hath broken down, and slayeth the men of the city.
field: 7008018
7
8
18
And he saith unto Zebah and unto Zalmunna, `How -- the men whom ye slew in Tabor?' and they say, `As thou -- so they, one -- as the form of the king's sons.'
field: 7008019
7
8
19
And he saith, `My brethren -- sons of my mother -- they; Jehovah liveth, if ye had kept them alive -- I had not slain you.'
field: 7008020
7
8
20
And he saith to Jether his first-born, `Rise, slay them;' and the young man hath not drawn his sword, for he hath been afraid, for he `is' yet a youth.
field: 7008021
7
8
21
And Zebah saith -- also Zalmunna -- `Rise thou, and fall upon us; for as the man -- his might;' and Gideon riseth, and slayeth Zebah and Zalmunna, and taketh their round ornaments which `are' on the necks of their camels.
field: 7008022
7
8
22
And the men of Israel say unto Gideon, `Rule over us, both thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, for thou hast saved us from the hand of Midian.'
field: 7008023
7
8
23
And Gideon saith unto them, `I do not rule over you, nor doth my son rule over you; Jehovah doth rule over you.'
field: 7008024
7
8
24
And Gideon saith unto them, `Let me ask of you a petition, and give ye to me each the ring of his prey, for they have rings of gold, for they `are' Ishmaelites.'
field: 7008025
7
8
25
And they say, `We certainly give;' and they spread out the garment, and cast thither each the ring of his prey;
field: 7008026
7
8
26
and the weight of the rings of gold which he asked is a thousand and seven hundred `shekels' of gold, apart from the round ornaments, and the drops, and the purple garments, which `are' on the kings of Midian, and apart from the chains which `are' on the necks of their camels,
field: 7008027
7
8
27
and Gideon maketh it into an ephod, and setteth it up in his city, in Ophrah, and all Israel go a-whoring after it there, and it is to Gideon and to his house for a snare.
field: 7008028
7
8
28
And Midian is humbled before the sons of Israel, and have not added to lift up their head; and the land resteth forty years in the days of Gideon.
field: 7008029
7
8
29
And Jerubbaal son of Joash goeth and dwelleth in his own house,
field: 7008030
7
8
30
and to Gideon there have been seventy sons, coming out of his loin, for he had many wives;
field: 7008031
7
8
31
and his concubine, who `is' in Shechem, hath born to him -- even she -- a son, and he appointeth his name Abimelech.
field: 7008032
7
8
32
And Gideon son of Joash dieth, in a good old age, and is buried in the burying-place of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abi-Ezrite.
field: 7008033
7
8
33
And it cometh to pass, when Gideon `is' dead, that the sons of Israel turn back and go a-whoring after the Baalim, and set over them Baal-Berith for a god;
field: 7008034
7
8
34
and the sons of Israel have not remembered Jehovah their God, who is delivering them out of the hand of all their enemies round about,
field: 7008035
7
8
35
neither have they done kindness with the house of Jerubbaal -- Gideon -- according to all the good which he did with Israel.
field: 7009001
7

1
and Abimelech son of Jerubbaal goeth to Shechem, unto his mother's brethren, and speaketh unto them, and unto all the family of the house of his mother's father, saying,
field: 7009002
7
9
2
`Speak, I pray you, in the ears of all the masters of Shechem, Which `is' good for you -- the ruling over you of seventy men (all the sons of Jerubbaal), or the ruling over you of one man? -- and ye have remembered that I `am' your bone and your flesh.'
field: 7009003
7
9
3
And his mother's brethren speak concerning him, in the ears of all the masters of Shechem, all these words, and their heart inclineth after Abimelech, for they said, `He `is' our brother;'
field: 7009004
7
9
4
and they give to him seventy silverings out of the house of Baal-Berith, and Abimelech hireth with them men, vain and unstable, and they go after him;
field: 7009005
7
9
5
and he goeth into the house of his father at Ophrah, and slayeth his brethren, sons of Jerubbaal, seventy men, on one stone; and Jotham, youngest son of Jerubbaal, is left, for he was hidden.
field: 7009006
7
9
6
And all the masters of Shechem are gathered together, and all the house of Millo, and come and cause Abimelech to reign for king at the oak of the camp which `is' in Shechem;
field: 7009007
7
9
7
and they declare `it' to Jotham, and he goeth and standeth on the top of mount Gerizim, and lifteth up his voice, and calleth, and saith to them, `Hearken unto me, O masters of Shechem, and God doth hearken unto you:

`The trees have diligently gone to anoint over them a king, and they say to the olive, Reign thou over us.

And the olive saith to them, Have I ceased from my fatness, by which they honour gods and men, that I have gone to stagger over the trees?

7
9
10
And the trees say to the fig, Come thou, reign over us.
field: 7009011

And the fig saith to them, Have I ceased from my sweetness, and my good increase, that I have gone to stagger over the trees?

7
9
12
`And the trees say to the vine, Come thou, reign over us.

13
And the vine saith to them, Have I ceased from my new wine, which is rejoicing gods and men, that I have gone to stagger over the trees?
field: 7009014
7
9
14
And all the trees say unto the bramble, Come thou, reign over us.
field: 7009015
7
9
15
And the bramble saith unto the trees, If in truth ye are anointing me for king over you, come, take refuge in my shadow; and if not -- fire cometh out from the bramble, and devoureth the cedars of Lebanon.
field: 7009016

`And, now, if in truth and in sincerity ye have acted, when ye make Abimelech king; and if ye have done good with Jerubbaal, and with his house; and if according to the deed of his hands ye have done to him --

17
because my father hath fought for you, and doth cast away his life from `him', and deliver you from the hand of Midian;

7
9
18
and ye have risen against the house of my father to-day, and slay his sons, seventy men, on one stone, and cause Abimelech son of his handmaid to reign over the masters of Shechem, because he `is' your brother --

19
yea, if in truth and in sincerity ye have acted with Jerubbaal and with his house this day, rejoice ye in Abimelech, and he doth rejoice -- even he -- in you;

and if not -- fire cometh out from Abimelech and devoureth the masters of Shechem and the house of Millo, and fire cometh out from the masters of Shechem and from the house of Millo, and devoureth Abimelech.'
field: 7009021
7

21
And Jotham hasteth, and fleeth, and goeth to Beer, and dwelleth there, from the face of Abimelech his brother.
field: 7009022
7
9
22
And Abimelech is prince over Israel three years,
field: 7009023
7
9
23
and God sendeth an evil spirit between Abimelech and the masters of Shechem, and the masters of Shechem deal treacherously with Abimelech,
field: 7009024
7
9
24
for the coming in of the violence `to' the seventy sons of Jerubbaal, and of their blood to place `it' on Abimelech their brother, who slew them, and on the masters of Shechem, who strengthened his hands to slay his brethren.
field: 7009025
7
9
25
And the masters of Shechem set for him ambushes on the top of the hills, and rob every one who passeth over by them in the way, and it is declared to Abimelech.
field: 7009026
7
9
26
And Gaal son of Ebed cometh -- also his brethren -- and they pass over into Shechem, and the masters of Shechem trust in him,
field: 7009027
7
9
27
and go out into the field, and gather their vineyards, and tread, and make praises, and go into the house of their god, and eat and drink, and revile Abimelech.
field: 7009028
7
9
28
And Gaal son of Ebed saith, `Who `is' Abimelech, and who `is' Shechem, that we serve him? is `he' not son of Jerubbaal? and Zebul his commander? Serve ye the men of Hamor father of Shechem, and wherefore do we serve him -- we?
field: 7009029
7
9
29
and oh that this people were in my hand -- then I turn Abimelech aside;' and he saith to Abimelech, `Increase thy host, and come out.'
field: 7009030
7
9
30
And Zebul, prince of the city, heareth the words of Gaal son of Ebed, and his anger burneth,
field: 7009031
7
9
31
and he sendeth messengers unto Abimelech deceitfully, saying, `Lo, Gaal son of Ebed and his brethren are coming into Shechem, and lo, they are fortifying the city against thee;

7
9
32
and, now, rise by night, thou and the people who `are' with thee, and lay wait in the field,

33
and it hath been, in the morning, about the rising of the sun, thou dost rise early, and hast pushed against the city; and lo, he and the people who `are' with him are going out unto thee -- and thou hast done to him as thy hand doth find.'
field: 7009034
7
9
34
And Abimelech riseth, and all the people who `are' with him, by night, and they lay wait against Shechem -- four detachments;
field: 7009035
7
9
35
and Gaal son of Ebed goeth out, and standeth at the opening of the gate of the city, and Abimelech riseth -- also the people who `are' with him -- from the ambush,
field: 7009036
7
9
36
and Gaal seeth the people, and saith unto Zebul, `Lo, people are coming down from the top of the hills;' and Zebul saith unto him, `The shadow of the hills thou art seeing like men.'
field: 7009037
7
9
37
And Gaal addeth yet to speak, and saith, `Lo, people are coming down from the high part of the land, and another detachment is coming by the way of the oak of Meonenim.'
field: 7009038
7
9
38
And Zebul saith unto him, `Where `is' now thy mouth, in that thou sayest, Who `is' Abimelech that we serve him? is not this the people against which thou hast kicked? go out, I pray thee now, and fight against it.'
field: 7009039
7
9
39
And Gaal goeth out before the masters of Shechem, and fighteth against Abimelech,
field: 7009040
7
9
40
and Abimelech pursueth him, and he fleeth from his presence, and many fall wounded -- unto the opening of the gate.
field: 7009041
7
9
41
And Abimelech abideth in Arumah, and Zebul casteth out Gaal and his brethren from dwelling in Shechem.
field: 7009042
7
9
42
And it cometh to pass, on the morrow, that the people go out to the field, and they declare `it' to Abimelech,
field: 7009043
7
9
43
and he taketh the people, and divideth them into three detachments, and layeth wait in a field, and looketh, and lo, the people are coming out from the city, and he riseth against them, and smiteth them.
field: 7009044
7
9
44
And Abimelech and the detachments who `are' with him have pushed on, and stand at the opening of the gate of the city, and the two detachments have pushed against all who are in the field, and smite them,
field: 7009045
7
9
45
and Abimelech hath fought against the city all that day, and captureth the city, and the people who `are' in it he hath slain, and he breaketh down the city, and soweth it `with' salt.
field: 7009046
7
9
46
And all the masters of the tower of Shechem hear, and go in unto the high place of the house of the god Berith,
field: 7009047
7
9
47
and it is declared to Abimelech that all the masters of the tower of Shechem have gathered themselves together,
field: 7009048
7
9
48
and Abimelech goeth up to mount Zalmon, he and all the people who `are' with him, and Abimelech taketh the great axe in his hand, and cutteth off a bough of the trees, and lifteth it up, and setteth `it' on his shoulder, and saith unto the people who `are' with him, `What ye have seen I have done -- haste, do ye like it.'
field: 7009049
7
9
49
And all the people also cut down each one his bough, and go after Abimelech, and set `them' at the high place, and burn by these the high place with fire, and also all the men of the tower of Shechem die, about a thousand men and women.
field: 7009050
7
9
50
And Abimelech goeth unto Thebez, and encampeth against Thebez, and captureth it,
field: 7009051
7
9
51
and a strong tower hath been in the midst of the city, and thither flee do all the men and the women, and all the masters of the city, and they shut `it' behind them, and go up on the roof of the tower.
field: 7009052
7
9
52
And Abimelech cometh unto the tower, and fighteth against it, and draweth nigh unto the opening of the tower to burn it with fire,
field: 7009053
7
9
53
and a certain woman doth cast a piece of a rider on the head of Abimelech, and breaketh his skull,
field: 7009054
7
9
54
and he calleth hastily unto the young man bearing his weapons, and saith to him, `Draw thy sword, and thou hast put me to death, lest they say of me -- A woman slew him;' and his young man pierced him through, and he dieth.
field: 7009055
7
9
55
And the men of Israel see that Abimelech `is' dead, and go each one to his place;
field: 7009056
7
9
56
and God turneth back the evil of Abimelech which he did to his father to slay his seventy brethren;

and all the evil of the men of Shechem hath God turned back on their head, and come unto them doth the cursing of Jotham son of Jerubbaal.

And there riseth after Abimelech, to save Israel, Tola son of Puah, son of Dodo, a man of Issachar, and he is dwelling in Shamir, in the hill-country of Ephraim,
field: 7010002
7
10
2
and he judgeth Israel twenty and three years, and he dieth, and is buried in Shamir.

7

3
And there riseth after him Jair the Gileadite, and he judgeth Israel twenty and two years,
field: 7010004
7
10
4
and he hath thirty sons riding on thirty ass-colts, and they have thirty cities, (they call them Havoth-Jair unto this day), which `are' in the land of Gilead;

7
10
5
and Jair dieth, and is buried in Kamon.
field: 7010006
7
10
6
And the sons of Israel add to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and serve the Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Aram, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the Bene-Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsake Jehovah, and have not served Him;
field: 7010007
7
10
7
and the anger of Jehovah burneth against Israel, and He selleth them into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the Bene-Ammon,
field: 7010008
7
10
8
and they crush and oppress the sons of Israel in that year -- eighteen years all the sons of Israel `who' are beyond the Jordan, in the land of the Amorite, which `is' in Gilead.
field: 7010009
7
10
9
And the Bene-Ammon pass over the Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim, and Israel hath great distress.
field: 7010010
7
10
10
And the sons of Israel cry unto Jehovah, saying, `We have sinned against Thee, even because we have forsaken our God, and serve the Baalim.'
field: 7010011
7
10
11
And Jehovah saith unto the sons of Israel, ``Have I' not `saved you' from the Egyptians, and from the Amorite, from the Bene-Ammon, and from the Philistines?
field: 7010012
7
10
12
And the Zidonians, and Amalek, and Maon have oppressed you, and ye cry unto Me, and I save you out of their hand;
field: 7010013
7
10
13
and ye -- ye have forsaken Me, and serve other gods, therefore I add not to save you.
field: 7010014
7
10
14
Go and cry unto the gods on which ye have fixed; they -- they save you in the time of your adversity.'
field: 7010015
7
10
15
And the sons of Israel say unto Jehovah, `We have sinned, do Thou to us according to all that is good in Thine eyes; only deliver us, we pray Thee, this day.'
field: 7010016
7
10
16
And they turn aside the gods of the stranger out of their midst, and serve Jehovah, and His soul is grieved with the misery of Israel.
field: 7010017
7
10
17
And the Bene-Ammon are called together, and encamp in Gilead, and the sons of Israel are gathered together, and encamp in Mizpah.
field: 7010018
7
10
18
And the people -- heads of Gilead -- say one unto another, `Who `is' the man that doth begin to fight against the Bene-Ammon? he is for head to all inhabitants of Gilead.'
field: 7011001
7
11
1
And Jephthah the Gileadite hath been a mighty man of valour, and he `is' son of a woman, a harlot; and Gilead begetteth Jephthah,
field: 7011002
7
11
2
and the wife of Gilead beareth to him sons, and the wife's sons grow up and cast out Jephthah, and say to him, `Thou dost not inherit in the house of our father; for son of another woman `art' thou.'
field: 7011003
7
11
3
And Jephthah fleeth from the face of his brethren, and dwelleth in the land of Tob; and vain men gather themselves together unto Jephthah, and they go out with him.
field: 7011004
7
11
4
And it cometh to pass, after a time, that the Bene-Ammon fight with Israel,
field: 7011005
7
11
5
and it cometh to pass, when the Bene-Ammon have fought with Israel, that the elders of Gilead go to take Jephthah from the land of Tob;

6
and they say unto Jephthah, `Come, and thou hast been to us for captain, and we fight against the Bene-Ammon.'
field: 7011007
7
11
7
And Jephthah saith to the elders of Gilead, `Have not ye hated me? and ye cast me out from the house of my father, and wherefore have ye come unto me now when ye are in distress?'
field: 7011008
7
11
8
and the elders of Gilead say unto Jephthah, `Therefore, now, we have turned back unto thee; and thou hast gone with us, and fought against the Bene-Ammon, and thou hast been to us for head -- to all the inhabitants of Gilead.'
field: 7011009
7
11
9
And Jephthah saith unto the elders of Gilead, `If ye are taking me back to fight against the Bene-Ammon, and Jehovah hath given them before me -- I, am I to you for a head?'
field: 7011010
7
11
10
And the elders of Gilead say unto Jephthah, `Jehovah is hearkening between us -- if according to thy word we do not so.'
field: 7011011
7
11
11
And Jephthah goeth with the elders of Gilead, and the people set him over them for head and for captain, and Jephthah speaketh all his words before Jehovah in Mizpeh.

7
11
12
And Jephthah sendeth messengers unto the king of the Bene-Ammon, saying, `What -- to me and to thee, that thou hast come in unto me, to fight in my land.'
field: 7011013
7
11
13
And the king of the Bene-Ammon saith unto the messengers of Jephthah, `Because Israel took my land in his coming up out of Egypt, from Arnon, and unto the Jabbok, and unto the Jordan; and now, restore them in peace.'
field: 7011014
7
11
14
And Jephthah addeth yet and sendeth messengers unto the king of the Bene-Ammon,

15
and saith to him, `Thus said Jephthah, Israel took not the land of Moab, and the land of the Bene-Ammon,

for in their coming up out of Egypt, Israel goeth in the wilderness unto the Red Sea, and cometh in to Kadesh,

and Israel sendeth messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me pass over, I pray thee, through thy land, and the king of Edom hearkened not; and also unto the king of Moab hath `Israel' sent, and he hath not been willing; and Israel abideth in Kadesh,

18
and he goeth through the wilderness, and compasseth the land of Edom and the land of Moab, and cometh in at the rising of the sun of the land of Moab, and they encamp beyond Arnon, and have not come into the border of Moab, for Arnon `is' the border of Moab.

`And Israel sendeth messengers unto Sihon, king of the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and Israel saith to him, Let us pass over, we pray thee, through thy land, unto my place,

and Sihon hath not trusted Israel to pass over through his border, and Sihon gathereth all his people, and they encamp in Jahaz, and fight with Israel;

`And now, `art' thou at all better than Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab? did he at all strive with Israel? did he at all fight against them?

In Israel's dwelling in Heshbon and in its towns, and in Aroer and in its towns, and in all the cities which `are' by the sides of Arnon three hundred years -- and wherefore have ye not delivered them in that time?
field: 7011027

And I -- I have not sinned against thee, and thou art doing with me evil -- to fight against me. Jehovah, the Judge, doth judge to-day between the sons of Israel and the sons of Ammon.'

28
And the king of the Bene-Ammon hath not hearkened unto the words of Jephthah which he sent unto him,
field: 7011029
7
11
29
and the Spirit of Jehovah is on Jephthah, and he passeth over Gilead and Manasseh, and passeth over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he hath passed over to the Bene-Ammon.
field: 7011030

And Jephthah voweth a vow to Jehovah, and saith, `If Thou dost at all give the Bene-Ammon into my hand --

7
11
31
then it hath been, that which at all cometh out from the doors of my house to meet me in my turning back in peace from the Bene-Ammon -- it hath been to Jehovah, or I have offered up for it -- a burnt-offering.'
field: 7011032
7
11
32
And Jephthah passeth over unto the Bene-Ammon to fight against them, and Jehovah giveth them into his hand,
field: 7011033
7
11
33
and he smiteth them from Aroer, and unto thy going in to Minnith, twenty cities, and unto the meadow of the vineyards -- a very great smiting; and the Bene-Ammon are humbled at the presence of the sons of Israel.
field: 7011034
7
11
34
And Jephthah cometh into Mizpeh, unto his house, and lo, his daughter is coming out to meet him with timbrels, and with choruses, and save her alone, he hath none, son or daughter.
field: 7011035
7
11
35
And it cometh to pass, when he seeth her, that he rendeth his garments, and saith, `Alas, my daughter, thou hast caused me greatly to bend, and thou hast been among those troubling me; and I -- I have opened my mouth unto Jehovah, and I am not able to turn back.'
field: 7011036
7
11
36
And she saith unto him, `My father -- thou hast opened thy mouth unto Jehovah, do to me as it hath gone out from thy mouth, after that Jehovah hath done for thee vengeance on thine enemies, on the Bene-Ammon.'
field: 7011037
7

And she saith unto her father, `Let this thing be done to me; desist from me two months, and I go on, and have gone down on the hills, and I weep for my virginity -- I and my friends.'
field: 7011038
7
11
38
And he saith, `Go;' and he sendeth her away two months, and she goeth, she and her friends, and she weepeth for her virginity on the hills;

7
11
39
and it cometh to pass at the end of two months that she turneth back unto her father, and he doth to her his vow which he hath vowed, and she knew not a man; and it is a statute in Israel:

from time to time the daughters of Israel go to talk to the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite, four days in a year.

And the men of Ephraim are called together, and pass over northward, and say to Jephthah, `Wherefore has thou passed over to fight against the Bene-Ammon, and on us hast not called to go with thee? thy house we burn over thee with fire.'
field: 7012002
7
12
2
And Jephthah saith unto them, `A man of great strife I have been (I and my people) with the Bene-Ammon, and I call you, and ye have not saved me out of their hand,

7
12

and I see that thou art not a saviour, and I put my life in my hand, and pass over unto the Bene-Ammon, and Jehovah giveth them into my hand -- and why have ye come up unto me this day to fight against me?'
field: 7012004

And Jephthah gathered all the men of Gilead, and fighteth with Ephraim, and the men of Gilead smite Ephraim, because they said, `Fugitives of Ephraim `are' ye Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim -- in the midst of Manasseh.'
field: 7012005

And Gilead captureth the passages of the Jordan to Ephraim, and it hath been, when `any of' the fugitives of Ephraim say, `Let me pass over,' and the men of Gilead say to him, `An Ephramite thou?' and he saith, `No;'

7

that they say to him, `Say, I pray thee, Shibboleth;' and he saith, `Sibboleth,' and is not prepared to speak right -- and they seize him, and slaughter him at the passages of the Jordan, and there fall at that time, of Ephraim, forty and two chiefs.

And there is a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danite, and his name `is' Manoah, his wife `is' barren, and hath not borne;

and a messenger of Jehovah appeareth unto the woman, and saith unto her, `Lo, I pray thee, thou `art' barren, and hast not borne; when thou hast conceived, then thou hast borne a son.

4
And, now, take heed, I pray thee, and do not drink wine, and strong drink, and do not eat any unclean thing,
field: 7013005
7

for, lo, thou art conceiving and bearing a son, and a razor doth not go up on his head, for a Nazarite to God is the youth from the womb, and he doth begin to save Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.'
field: 7013006
7
13
6
And the woman cometh and speaketh to her husband, saying, `A man of God hath come unto me, and his appearance `is' as the appearance of a messenger of God, very fearful, and I have not asked him whence he `is', and his name he hath not declared to me;
field: 7013007
7
13

and he saith to me, Lo, thou art pregnant, and bearing a son, and now do not drink wine and strong drink, and do not eat any unclean thing, for a Nazarite to God is the youth from the womb till the day of his death.'
field: 7013008
7

And Manoah maketh entreaty unto Jehovah, and saith, `O, my Lord, the man of God whom Thou didst send, let him come in, I pray thee, again unto us, and direct us what we do to the youth who is born.'

And God hearkeneth to the voice of Manoah, and the messenger of God cometh again unto the woman, and she `is' sitting in a field, and Manoah her husband is not with her,

and the woman hasteth, and runneth, and declareth to her husband, and saith unto him, `Lo, he hath appeared unto me -- the man who came on `that' day unto me.'

And Manoah riseth, and goeth after his wife, and cometh unto the man, and saith to him, `Art thou the man who spake unto the woman?' and he saith, `I `am'.'

12
And Manoah saith, `Now let thy words come to pass; what is the custom of the youth -- and his work?'
field: 7013013

13
And the messenger of Jehovah saith unto Manoah, `Of all that I said unto the woman let her take heed;

of anything which cometh out from the wine-vine she doth not eat, and wine and strong drink she doth not drink, and any unclean thing she doth not eat; all that I have commanded her she doth observe.'

And Manoah saith unto the messenger of Jehovah, `Let us detain thee, we pray thee, and prepare before thee a kid of the goats.'

7
13
16
And the messenger of Jehovah saith unto Manoah, `If thou detain me -- I do not eat of thy bread; and if thou prepare a burnt-offering -- to Jehovah thou dost offer it;' for Manoah hath not known that He `is' a messenger of Jehovah.

And Manoah saith unto the messenger of Jehovah, `What `is' thy name? when thy words come to pass, then we have honoured thee.'

And the messenger of Jehovah saith to him, `Why `is' this -- thou dost ask for My name? -- and it `is' Wonderful.'

And Manoah taketh the kid of the goats, and the present, and offereth on the rock to Jehovah, and He is doing wonderfully, and Manoah and his wife are looking on,

13
20
and it cometh to pass, in the going up of the flame from off the altar toward the heavens, that the messenger of Jehovah goeth up in the flame of the altar, and Manoah and his wife are looking on, and they fall on their faces to the earth,
field: 7013021

and the messenger of Jehovah hath not added again to appear unto Manoah, and unto his wife, then hath Manoah known that He `is' a messenger of Jehovah.

22
And Manoah saith unto his wife, `We certainly die, for we have seen God.'

And his wife saith to him, `If Jehovah were desirous to put us to death, He had not received from our hands burnt-offering and present, nor shewed us all these things, nor as `at this' time caused us to hear `anything' like this.'

And the woman beareth a son, and calleth his name Samson, and the youth groweth, and Jehovah doth bless him,

And his father saith to him -- also his mother, `Is there not among the daughters of thy brethren, and among all my people, a woman, that thou art going to take a woman from the uncircumcised Philistines?' and Samson saith unto his father, `Take her for me, for she is right in mine eyes.'
field: 7014004

And his father and his mother have not known that from Jehovah it `is', that a meeting he is seeking of the Philistines; and at that time the Philistines are ruling over Israel.

And Samson goeth down -- also his father and his mother, to Timnath, and they come unto the vineyards of Timnath, and lo, a lion's whelp roareth at meeting him,

6
and the Spirit of Jehovah prospereth over him, and he rendeth it as the rending of a kid, and there is nothing in his hand, and he hath not declared to his father and to his mother that which he hath done.

And he goeth down and speaketh to the woman, and she is right in the eyes of Samson;

8
and he turneth back after `some' days to take her, and turneth aside to see the carcase of the lion, and lo, a company of bees `are' in the body of the lion -- and honey.

7
14
9
And he taketh it down on to his hands, and goeth on, going and eating; and he goeth unto his father, and unto his mother, and giveth to them, and they eat, and he hath not declared to them that from the body of the lion he took down the honey.
field: 7014010

And his father goeth down unto the woman, and Samson maketh there a banquet, for so the young men do;

14
11
and it cometh to pass when they see him, that they take thirty companions, and they are with him.
field: 7014012
7
14
12
And Samson saith to them, `Let me, I pray you, put forth to you a riddle; if ye certainly declare it to me `in' the seven days of the banquet, and have found `it' out, then I have given to you thirty linen shirts, and thirty changes of garments;
field: 7014013
7
14
13
and if ye are not able to declare `it' to me, then ye have given to me thirty linen shirts, and thirty changes of garments.' And they say to him, `Put forth thy riddle, and we hear it!'
field: 7014014
7
14
14
And he saith to them: `Out of the eater came forth meat, And out of the strong came forth sweetness;' and they were not able to declare the riddle `in' three days.
field: 7014015
7
14
15
And it cometh to pass, on the seventh day, that they say to Samson's wife, `Entice thy husband, that he declare to us the riddle, lest we burn thee and the house of thy father with fire; to possess us have ye called for us? is it not?'
field: 7014016
7
14
16
And Samson's wife weepeth for it, and saith, `Thou hast only hated me, and hast not loved me; the riddle thou hast put forth to the sons of my people -- and to me thou hast not declared it;' and he saith to her, `Lo, to my father and to my mother I have not declared `it' -- and to thee I declare `it'!'
field: 7014017
7
14
17
And she weepeth for it the seven days `in' which their banquet hath been, and it cometh to pass on the seventh day that he declareth `it' to her, for she hath distressed him; and she declareth the riddle to the sons of her people.
field: 7014018
7
14
18
And the men of the city say to him on the seventh day, before the sun goeth in: -- `What `is' sweeter than honey? And what stronger than a lion?' And he saith to them: `Unless ye had ploughed with my heifer, Ye had not found out my riddle.'
field: 7014019
7
14
19
And the Spirit of Jehovah prospereth over him, and he goeth down to Ashkelon, and smiteth of them thirty men, and taketh their armour, and giveth the changes to those declaring the riddle; and his anger burneth, and he goeth up to the house of his father;
field: 7014020
7
14
20
and Samson's wife becometh his companion's, who `is' his friend.
field: 7015001

1
And it cometh to pass, after `some' days, in the days of wheat-harvest, that Samson looketh after his wife, with a kid of the goats, and saith, `I go in unto my wife, to the inner chamber;' and her father hath not permitted him to go in,
field: 7015002
7
15
2
and her father saith, I certainly said, that thou didst certainly hate her, and I give her to thy companion; is not her sister -- the young one -- better than she? Let her be, I pray thee, to thee, instead of her.'
field: 7015003
7
15
3
And Samson saith of them, `I am more innocent this time than the Philistines, though I am doing with them evil.'
field: 7015004
7
15
4
And Samson goeth and catcheth three hundred foxes, and taketh torches, and turneth tail unto tail, and putteth a torch between the two tails, in the midst,
field: 7015005
7
15
5
and kindleth fire in the torches, and sendeth `them' out into the standing corn of the Philistines, and burneth `it' from heap even unto standing corn, even unto vineyard -- olive-yard.
field: 7015006
7
15
6
And the Philistines say, `Who hath done this?' And they say, `Samson, son-in-law of the Timnite, because he hath taken away his wife, and giveth her to his companion;' and the Philistines go up, and burn her and her father with fire.
field: 7015007
7
15
7
And Samson saith to them, `Though ye do thus, nevertheless I am avenged on you, and afterwards I cease!'
field: 7015008
7
15
8
And he smiteth them hip and thigh -- a great smiting, and goeth down and dwelleth in the cleft of the rock Etam.
field: 7015009
7
15
9
And the Philistines go up, and encamp in Judah, and are spread out in Lehi,

10
and the men of Judah say, `Why have ye come up against us?' and they say, `To bind Samson we have come up, to do to him as he hath done to us.'
field: 7015011
7
15
11
And three thousand men of Judah go down unto the cleft of the rock Etam, and say to Samson, `Hast thou now known that the Philistines are rulers over us? and what `is' this thou hast done to us?' And he saith to them, `As they did to me, so I did to them.'
field: 7015012
7
15
12
And they say to him, `To bind thee we have come down -- to give thee into the hand of the Philistines.' And Samson saith to them, `Swear to me, lest ye fall upon me yourselves.'
field: 7015013
7
15
13
And they speak to him, saying, No, but we certainly bind thee, and have given thee into their hand, and we certainly do not put thee to death;' and they bind him with two thick bands, new ones, and bring him up from the rock.
field: 7015014
7
15
14
He hath come unto Lehi -- and the Philistines have shouted at meeting him -- and the Spirit of Jehovah prospereth over him, and the thick bands which `are' on his arms are as flax which they burn with fire, and his bands are wasted from off his hands,
field: 7015015
7
15
15
and he findeth a fresh jaw-bone of an ass, and putteth forth his hand and taketh it, and smiteth with it -- a thousand men.
field: 7015016
7
15
16
And Samson saith, `With a jaw-bone of the ass -- an ass upon asses -- with a jaw-bone of the ass I have smitten a thousand men.'
field: 7015017
7
15
17
And it cometh to pass when he finisheth speaking, that he casteth away the jaw-bone out of his hand, and calleth that place Ramath-Lehi;
field: 7015018
7
15
18
and he thirsteth exceedingly, and calleth unto Jehovah, and saith, `Thou -- Thou hast given by the hand of Thy servant this great salvation; and now, I die with thirst, and have fallen into the hand of the uncircumcised.'
field: 7015019
7
15
19
And God cleaveth the hollow place which `is' in Lehi, and waters come out of it, and he drinketh, and his spirit cometh back, and he reviveth; therefore hath `one' called its name `The fountain of him who is calling,' which `is' in Lehi unto this day.
field: 7015020
7
15
20
And he judgeth Israel in the days of the Philistines twenty years.
field: 7016001

And Samson goeth to Gaza, and seeth there a woman, a harlot, and goeth in unto her;

7
16
2
`it is told' to the Gazathites, saying, `Samson hath come in hither;' and they go round and lay wait for him all the night at the gate of the city, and keep themselves silent all the night, saying, `Till the light of the morning -- then we have slain him.'
field: 7016003
7
16
3
And Samson lieth down till the middle of the night, and riseth in the middle of the night, and layeth hold on the doors of the gate of the city, and on the two side posts, and removeth them with the bar, and putteth on his shoulders, and taketh them up unto the top of the hill, which `is' on the front of Hebron.
field: 7016004
7

4
And it cometh to pass afterwards that he loveth a woman in the valley of Sorek, and her name `is' Delilah,

7
16
5
and the princes of the Philistines come up unto her, and say to her, `Entice him, and see wherein his great power `is', and wherein we are able for him -- and we have bound him to afflict him, and we -- we give to thee, each one, eleven hundred silverlings.'
field: 7016006
7
16
6
And Delilah saith unto Samson, `Declare, I pray thee, to me, wherein thy great power `is', and wherewith thou art bound, to afflict thee.'
field: 7016007
7
16
7
And Samson saith unto her, `If they bind me with seven green withs which have not been dried, then I have been weak, and have been as one of the human race.'
field: 7016008
7
16
8
And the princes of the Philistines bring up to her seven green withs which have not been dried, and she bindeth him with them.
field: 7016009
7
16
9
And the ambush is abiding with her in an inner chamber, and she saith unto him, `Philistines `are' upon thee, Samson;' and he breaketh the withs as a thread of tow is broken in its smelling fire, and his power hath not been known.
field: 7016010
7
16
10
And Delilah saith unto Samson, `Lo, thou hast played upon me, and speakest unto me lies; now, declare, I pray thee, to me, wherewith thou art bound.'
field: 7016011
7
16
11
And he saith unto her, `If they certainly bind me with thick bands, new ones, by which work hath not been done, then I have been weak, and have been as one of the human race.'
field: 7016012
7
16
12
And Delilah taketh thick bands, new ones, and bindeth him with them, and saith unto him, `Philistines `are' upon thee, Samson;' and the ambush is abiding in an inner chamber, and he breaketh them from off his arms as a thread.
field: 7016013
7
16
13
And Delilah saith unto Samson, `Hitherto thou hast played upon me, and dost speak unto me lies; declare to me wherewith thou art bound.' And he saith unto her, `If thou weavest the seven locks of my head with the web.'
field: 7016014
7
16
14
And she fixeth `it' with the pin, and saith unto him, `Philistines `are' upon thee, Samson;' and he awaketh out of his sleep, and journeyeth with the pin of the weaving machine, and with the web.
field: 7016015
7
16
15
And she saith unto him, `How dost thou say, I have loved thee, and thy heart is not with me? these three times thou hast played upon me, and hast not declared to me wherein thy great power `is'.'
field: 7016016
7
16
16
And it cometh to pass, because she distressed him with her words all the days, and doth urge him, and his soul is grieved to death,

7
16
17
that he declareth to her all his heart, and saith to her, `A razor hath not gone up on my head, for a Nazarite to God I `am' from the womb of my mother; if I have been shaven, then hath my power turned aside from me, and I have been weak, and have been as any of the human race.'

18
And Delilah seeth that he hath declared to her all his heart, and she sendeth and calleth for the princes of the Philistines, saying, `Come up this time, for he hath declared to me all his heart;' and the princes of the Philistines have come up unto her, and bring up the money in their hand.
field: 7016019

and she maketh him sleep on her knees, and calleth for a man, and shaveth the seven locks of his head, and beginneth to afflict him, and his power turneth aside from off him;

And the Philistines seize him, and pick out his eyes, and bring him down to Gaza, and bind him with two brazen fetters; and he is grinding in the prison-house.
field: 7016022

22
And the hair of his head beginneth to shoot up, when he hath been shaven,
field: 7016023

16
23
and the princes of the Philistines have been gathered together to sacrifice a great sacrifice to Dagon their god, and to rejoice; and they say, `Our god hath given into our hand Samson our enemy.'
field: 7016024
7
16
24
And the people see him, and praise their god, for they said, `Our god hath given in our hand our enemy, and he who is laying waste our land, and who multiplied our wounded.'
field: 7016025

16
25
And it cometh to pass, when their heart `is' glad, that they say, `Call for Samson, and he doth play before us;' and they call for Samson out of the prison-house, and he playeth before them, and they cause him to stand between the pillars.
field: 7016026

16
26
And Samson saith unto the young man who is keeping hold on his hand, `Let me alone, and let me feel the pillars on which the house is established, and I lean upon them.'
field: 7016027
7
16
27
And the house hath been full of men and of women, and thither `are' all the princes of the Philistines, and on the roof `are' about three thousand men and women, who are looking on the playing of Samson.

28
And Samson calleth unto Jehovah, and saith, `Lord Jehovah, remember me, I pray Thee, and strengthen me, I pray Thee, only this time, O God; and I am avenged -- vengeance at once -- because of my two eyes, on the Philistines.'
field: 7016029

And Samson turneth aside `to' the two middle pillars, on which the house is established, and on which it is supported, `to' the one with his right hand, and one with his left;
field: 7016030
7
16
30
and Samson saith, `Let me die with the Philistines,' and he inclineth himself powerfully, and the house falleth on the princes, and on all the people who `are' in it, and the dead whom he hath put to death in his death are more than those whom he put to death in his life.

And his brethren come down, and all the house of his father, and lift him up, and bring him up, and bury him between Zorah and Eshtaol, in the burying-place of Manoah his father; and he hath judged Israel twenty years.

And there is a man of the hill-country of Ephraim, and his name `is' Micah,

and he saith to his mother, `The eleven hundred silverlings which have been taken of thine, and `of which' thou hast sworn, and also spoken in mine ears; lo, the silver `is' with me, I have taken it;' and his mother saith, `Blessed `is' my son of Jehovah.'
field: 7017003
7
17

And he giveth back the eleven hundred silverlings to his mother, and his mother saith, `I had certainly sanctified the silver to Jehovah, from my hand, for my son, to make a graven image, and a molten image; and now, I give it back to thee.'
field: 7017004
7
17

And he giveth back the money to his mother, and his mother taketh two hundred silverlings, and giveth them to a refiner, and he maketh them a graven image, and a molten image, and it is in the house of Micah.

As to the man Micah, he hath a house of gods, and he maketh an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrateth the hand of one of his sons, and he is to him for a priest;

in those days there is no king in Israel, each that which is right in his own eyes doth.

And there is a young man of Beth-Lehem-Judah, of the family of Judah, and he `is' a Levite, and he `is' a sojourner there.
field: 7017008
7
17
8
And the man goeth out of the city, out of Beth-Lehem-Judah, to sojourn where he doth find, and cometh to the hill-country of Ephraim, unto the house of Micah, to work his way.
field: 7017009
7

And Micah saith to him, `Whence comest thou?' and he saith unto him, `A Levite `am' I, of Beth-Lehem-Judah, and I am going to sojourn where I do find.'
field: 7017010
7
17
10
And Micah saith to him, `Dwell with me, and be to me for a father and for a priest, and I give to thee ten silverlings for the days, and a suit of garments, and thy sustenance;' and the Levite goeth `in'.
field: 7017011
7
17
11
And the Levite is willing to dwell with the man, and the young man is to him as one of his sons.
field: 7017012
7
17
12
And Micah consecrateth the hand of the Levite, and the young man is to him for a priest, and he is in the house of Micah,
field: 7017013

13
and Micah saith, `Now I have known that Jehovah doth good to me, for the Levite hath been to me for a priest.'

In those days there is no king in Israel, and in those days the tribe of the Danite is seeking for itself an inheritance to inhabit, for `that' hath not fallen to it unto that day in the midst of the tribes of Israel by inheritance.

And the sons of Dan send, out of their family, five men of them, men, sons of valour, from Zorah, and from Eshtaol, to traverse the land, and to search it, and they say unto them, `Go, search the land;' and they come into the hill-country of Ephraim, unto the house of Micah, and lodge there.
field: 7018003
7
18

They `are' with the household of Micah, and they have discerned the voice of the young man, the Levite, and turn aside there, and say to him, `Who hath brought thee hither? and what art thou doing in this `place?' and what to thee here?'
field: 7018004
7

And he saith unto them, `Thus and thus hath Micah done to me; and he hireth me, and I am to him for a priest.'

And they say to him, `Ask, we pray thee, at God, and we know whether our way is prosperous on which we are going.'

And the priest saith to them, `Go in peace; over-against Jehovah `is' your way in which ye go.'

And the five men go, and come in to Laish, and see the people which `is' in its midst, dwelling confidently, according to the custom of Zidonians, quiet and confident; and there is none putting to shame in the land in `any' thing, possessing restraint, and they `are' far off from the Zidonians, and have no word with `any' man.
field: 7018008

And they come in unto their brethren, at Zorah and Eshtaol, and their brethren say to them, `What -- ye?'
field: 7018009
7
18

And they say, `Rise, and we go up against them, for we have seen the land, and lo, very good; and ye are keeping silent! be not slothful to go -- to enter to possess the land.
field: 7018010

When ye go, ye come in unto a people confident, and the land `is' large on both hands, for God hath given it into your hand, a place where there is no lack of anything which `is' in the land.'
field: 7018011
7

11
And there journey thence, of the family of the Danite, from Zorah, and from Eshtaol, six hundred men girded with weapons of war.
field: 7018012
7
18
12
And they go up and encamp in Kirjath-Jearim, in Judah, therefore they have called that place, `Camp of Dan,' till this day; lo, behind Kirjath-Jearim.
field: 7018013
7
18
13
And they pass over thence `to' the hill-country of Ephraim, and come in unto the house of Micah.
field: 7018014
7
18
14
And the five men, those going to traverse the land of Laish, answer and say unto their brethren, `Have ye known that there is in these houses an ephod, and teraphim, and graven image, and molten image? and now, know what ye do.'
field: 7018015
7
18
15
And they turn aside thither, and come in unto the house of the young man the Levite, the house of Micah, and ask of him of welfare, --

18
16
(and the six hundred men girded with their weapons of war, who `are' of the sons of Dan, are standing at the opening of the gate), --

7
18
17
yea, the five men, those going to traverse the land, go up -- they have come in thither -- they have taken the graven image, and the ephod, and the teraphim, and the molten image -- and the priest is standing at the opening of the gate, and the six hundred men who are girded with weapons of war --
field: 7018018
7
18
18
yea, these have entered the house of Micah, and take the graven image, the ephod, and the teraphim, and the molten image; and the priest saith unto them, `What are ye doing?'
field: 7018019
7
18
19
and they say to him, `Keep silent, lay thy hand on thy mouth, and go with us, and be to us for a father and for a priest: is it better thy being a priest to the house of one man, or thy being priest to a tribe and to a family in Israel?'
field: 7018020
7
18
20
And the heart of the priest is glad, and he taketh the ephod, and the teraphim, and the graven image, and goeth into the midst of the people,
field: 7018021
7
18
21
and they turn and go, and put the infants, and the cattle, and the baggage, before them.
field: 7018022
7
18
22
They have been far off from the house of Micah -- and the men who `are' in the houses which `are' near the house of Micah have been called together, and overtake the sons of Dan,
field: 7018023
7
18
23
and call unto the sons of Dan, and they turn round their faces, and say to Micah, `What -- to thee that thou hast been called together?'
field: 7018024
7
18
24
And he saith, `My gods which I made ye have taken, and the priest, and ye go; and what to me more? and what `is' this ye say unto me, What -- to thee!'
field: 7018025
7
18
25
And the sons of Dan say unto him, `Let not thy voice be heard with us, lest men bitter in soul fall upon you, and thou hast gathered thy life, and the life of thy household;'
field: 7018026
7
18
26
and the sons of Dan go on their way, and Micah seeth that they are stronger than he, and turneth, and goeth back unto his house.
field: 7018027
7
18
27
And they have taken that which Micah had made, and the priest whom he had, and come in against Laish, against a people quiet and confident, and smite them by the mouth of the sword, and the city have burnt with fire,
field: 7018028
7
18
28
and there is no deliverer, for it `is' far off from Zidon, and they have no word with `any' man, and it `is' in the valley which `is' by Beth-Rehob; and they build the city, and dwell in it,
field: 7018029
7
18
29
and call the name of the city Dan, by the name of Dan their father, who was born to Israel; and yet Laish `is' the name of the city at the first.

And the sons of Dan raise up for themselves the graven image, and Jonathan son of Gershom, son of Manasseh, he and his sons have been priests to the tribe of the Danite, till the day of the removal of `the people' of the land.

And they appoint for them the graven image of Micah, which he had made, all the days of the house of God being in Shiloh.

And it cometh to pass, in those days, when there is no king in Israel, that there is a man a Levite, a sojourner in the sides of the hill-country of Ephraim, and he taketh to him a wife, a concubine, out of Beth-Lehem-Judah;

and commit whoredom against him doth his concubine, and she goeth from him unto the house of her father, unto Beth-Lehem-Judah, and is there days -- four months.

And her husband riseth and goeth after her, to speak unto her heart, to bring her back, and his young man `is' with him, and a couple of asses; and she bringeth him into the house of her father, and the father of the young woman seeth him, and rejoiceth to meet him.

And keep hold on him doth his father-in-law, father of the young woman, and he abideth with him three days, and they eat and drink, and lodge there.

5
And it cometh to pass, on the fourth day, that they rise early in the morning, and he riseth to go, and the father of the young woman saith unto his son-in-law, `Support thy heart with a morsel of bread, and afterward ye go on.'
field: 7019006

And they sit and eat both of them together, and drink, and the father of the young woman saith unto the man, `Be willing, I pray thee, and lodge all night, and let thy heart be glad.'

And the man riseth to go, and his father-in-law presseth on him, and he turneth back and lodgeth there.

And he riseth early in the morning, on the fifth day, to go, and the father of the young woman saith, `Support, I pray thee, thy heart;' and they have tarried till the turning of the day, and they eat, both of them.
field: 7019009

And the man riseth to go, he and his concubine, and his young man, and his father-in-law, father of the young woman, saith to him, `Lo, I pray thee, the day hath fallen toward evening, lodge all night, I pray thee; lo, the declining of the day! lodge here, and let thine heart be glad -- and ye have risen early to-morrow for your journey, and thou hast gone to thy tent.'

And the man hath not been willing to lodge all night, and he riseth, and goeth, and cometh in till over-against Jebus (It `is' Jerusalem), and with him `are' a couple of asses saddled; and his concubine `is' with him.
field: 7019011

11
They `are' near Jebus, and the day hath gone greatly down, and the young man saith unto his lord, `Come, I pray thee, and we turn aside unto this city of the Jebusite, and lodge in it.'
field: 7019012
7
19
12
And his lord saith unto him, `Let us not turn aside unto the city of a stranger, that is not of the sons of Israel, thither, but we have passed over unto Gibeah.'

13
And he saith to his young man, `Come, and we draw near to one of the places, and have lodged in Gibeah, or in Ramah.'
field: 7019014

14
And they pass over, and go on, and the sun goeth in upon them near Gibeah, which is to Benjamin;

and they turn aside there to go in to lodge in Gibeah, and he goeth in and sitteth in a broad place of the city, and there is no man gathering them into the house to lodge.

And lo, a man, an aged one, hath come from his work from the field in the evening, and the man `is' of the hill-country of Ephraim, and he `is' a sojourner in Gibeah, and the men of the place `are' Benjamites.

And he lifteth up his eyes, and seeth the man, the traveller, in a broad place of the city, and the aged man saith, `Whither goest thou? and whence comest thou?'

19
18
And he saith unto him, `We are passing over from Beth-Lehem-Judah unto the sides of the hill-country of Ephraim -- thence I `am', and I go unto Beth-Lehem-Judah; and to the house of Jehovah I am going, and there is no man gathering me into the house,

and both straw and provender are for our asses, and also bread and wine there are for me, and for thy handmaid, and for the young man with thy servants; there is no lack of anything.'

And he bringeth him in to his house, and mixeth `food' for the asses, and they wash their feet, and eat and drink.

19
22
They are making their heart glad, and lo, men of the city, men -- sons of worthlessness -- have gone round about the house, beating on the door, and they speak unto the old man, the master of the house, saying, `Bring out the man who hath come unto thine house, and we know him.'

And the man, the master of the house, goeth out unto them, and saith unto them, `Nay, my brethren, do not evil, I pray you, after that this man hath come in unto my house, do not this folly;

lo, my daughter, the virgin, and his concubine, let me bring them out, I pray you, and humble ye them, and do to them that which is good in your eyes, and to this man do not this foolish thing.'

And the men have not been willing to hearken to him, and the man taketh hold on his concubine, and bringeth `her' out unto them without, and they know her, and roll themselves upon her all the night, till the morning, and send her away in the ascending of the dawn;

And her lord riseth in the morning, and openeth the doors of the house, and goeth out to go on his way, and lo, the woman, his concubine, is fallen at the opening of the house, and her hands `are' on the threshold,

And it hath come to pass, every one who seeth hath said, `There hath not been -- yea, there hath not been seen like this, from the day of the coming up of the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt till this day; set your `heart' upon it, take counsel, and speak.'

And all the sons of Israel go out, and the company is assembled as one man, from Dan even unto Beer-Sheba, and the land of Gilead, unto Jehovah, at Mizpeh.

And the chiefs of all the people, of all the tribes of Israel, station themselves in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen drawing sword.

And the sons of Benjamin hear that the sons of Israel have gone up to Mizpeh. And the sons of Israel say, `Speak ye, how hath this evil been?'

And the man, the Levite, husband of the woman who hath been murdered, answereth and saith, `Into Gibeah (which `is' to Benjamin) I have come, I and my concubine, to lodge;

and I lay hold on my concubine, and cut her in pieces, and send her into all the country of the inheritance of Israel; for they have done wickedness and folly in Israel;

lo, ye `are' all sons of Israel; give for you a word and counsel here.'

And all the people rise as one man, saying, `None of us doth go to his tent, and none of us doth turn aside to his house;

and now, this `is' the thing which we do to Gibeah -- against it by lot!

and we have taken ten men of a hundred, of all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred of a thousand, and a thousand of a myriad, to receive provision for the people, to do, at their coming to Gibeah of Benjamin, according to all the folly which it hath done in Israel.'

And every man of Israel is gathered unto the city, as one man -- companions.

And the tribes of Israel send men among all the tribes of Benjamin, saying, `What `is' this evil which hath been among you?

13
And now, give up the men -- sons of worthlessness -- which `are' in Gibeah, and we put them to death, and we put away evil from Israel.' And `the sons of' Benjamin have not been willing to hearken to the voice of their brethren, the sons of Israel;

and the sons of Benjamin are gathered out of the cities to Gibeah, to go out to battle with the sons of Israel.

And the sons of Benjamin number themselves on that day; out of the cities `are' twenty and six thousand men drawing sword, apart from the inhabitants of Gibeah, `who' numbered themselves, seven hundred chosen men;

among all this people `are' seven hundred chosen men, bound of their right hand, each of these slinging with a stone at the hair, and he doth not err.

And the men of Israel numbered themselves, apart from Benjamin, four hundred thousand men, drawing sword, each of these a man of war.

And they rise and go up to Beth-El, and ask of God, and the sons of Israel say, `Who doth go up for us at the commencement to battle with the sons of Benjamin?' and Jehovah saith, `Judah -- at the commencement.'

And the sons of Israel rise in the morning, and encamp against Gibeah,

and the sons of Benjamin come out from Gibeah, and destroy in Israel on that day two and twenty thousand men -- to the earth.

And the people, the men of Israel, strengthen themselves, and add to set the battle in array in the place where they arranged themselves on the first day.

And the sons of Israel go up and weep before Jehovah till the evening, and ask of Jehovah, saying, `Do I add to draw nigh to battle with the sons of Benjamin, my brother?' And Jehovah saith, `Go up against him.'

And Israel setteth liers in wait against Gibeah, round about,
field: 7020030
7
20
30
and the sons of Israel go up against the sons of Benjamin, on the third day, and arrange themselves against Gibeah, as time by time.
field: 7020031
7
20
31
And the sons of Benjamin come out to meet the people; they have been drawn away out of the city, and begin to smite `some' of the people -- wounded as time by time, in the highways (of which one is going up to Beth-El, and the other to Gibeah in the field), `are' about thirty men of Israel.
field: 7020032
7
20
32
And the sons of Benjamin say, `They are smitten before us as at the beginning;' but the sons of Israel said, `Let us flee, and draw them away out of the city, unto the highways.'
field: 7020033
7
20
33
And all the men of Israel have risen from their place, and arrange themselves at Baal-Tamar, and the ambush of Israel is coming forth out of its place, out of the meadow of Gibeah.
field: 7020034
7
20
34
And they come in over against Gibeah -- ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel -- and the battle `is' grievous, and they have not known that the evil is striking against them.
field: 7020035
7
20
35
And Jehovah smiteth Benjamin before Israel, and the sons of Israel destroy in Benjamin, on that day, twenty and five thousand, and a hundred men; all these `are' drawing sword.
field: 7020036
7
20
36
And the sons of Benjamin see that they have been smitten -- and the men of Israel give place to Benjamin, for they have trusted unto the ambush which they had set against Gibeah,
field: 7020037
7
20
37
and the ambush have hasted, and push against Gibeah, and the ambush draweth itself out, and smiteth the whole of the city by the mouth of the sword.
field: 7020038
7
20
38
And there was the appointed sign to the men of Israel with the ambush -- their causing to go up a great volume of smoke from the city.
field: 7020039
7
20
39
And the men of Israel turn in battle, and Benjamin hath begun to smite the wounded among the men of Israel, about thirty men, for they said, `Surely they are utterly smitten before us, as `at' the first battle;
field: 7020040
7
20
40
and the volume hath begun to go up from the city -- a pillar of smoke -- and Benjamin turneth behind, and lo, gone up hath the perfection of the city toward the heavens.
field: 7020041
7
20
41
And the men of Israel have turned, and the men of Benjamin are troubled, for they have seen that the evil hath stricken against them --
field: 7020042
7
20
42
and they turn before the men of Israel unto the way of the wilderness, and the battle hath followed them; and those who `are' from the city are destroying them in their midst;
field: 7020043
7
20
43
they have compassed the Benjamites -- they have pursued them -- with ease they have trodden them down till over-against Gibeah, at the sun-rising.
field: 7020044
7
20
44
And there fall of Benjamin eighteen thousand men -- the whole of these `are' men of valour;
field: 7020045
7
20
45
and they turn and flee toward the wilderness, unto the rock of Rimmon; and they glean of them in the highways five thousand men, and follow after them unto Gidom, and smite of them two thousand men.
field: 7020046
7
20
46
And all those falling of Benjamin are twenty and five thousand men drawing sword, on that day -- the whole of these `are' men of valour;
field: 7020047
7
20
47
and there turn and flee into the wilderness, unto the rock of Rimmon six hundred men, and they dwell in the rock Rimmon four months.
field: 7020048
7
20
48
And the men of Israel have turned back unto the sons of Benjamin, and smite them by the mouth of the sword out of the city, -- men unto cattle, unto all that is found; also all the cities which are found they have sent into fire.
field: 7021001
7
21
1
And the men of Israel have sworn in Mizpeh, saying, `None of us doth give his daughter to Benjamin for a wife.'
field: 7021002
7
21
2
And the people come in to Beth-El, and sit there till the evening before God, and lift up their voice, and weep -- a great weeping,
field: 7021003
7
21
3
and say, `Why, O Jehovah, God of Israel, hath this been in Israel -- to be lacking to-day, from Israel, one tribe?'
field: 7021004
7
21
4
And it cometh to pass on the morrow, that the people rise early, and build there an altar, and cause to ascend burnt-offerings and peace-offerings.
field: 7021005
7
21
5
And the sons of Israel say, `Who `is' he that hath not come up in the assembly out of all the tribes of Israel unto Jehovah?' for the great oath hath been concerning him who hath not come up unto Jehovah to Mizpeh, saying, `He is surely put to death.'
field: 7021006
7
21
6
And the sons of Israel repent concerning Benjamin their brother, and say, `There hath been to-day cut off one tribe from Israel,
field: 7021007
7
21
7
what do we do for them -- for those who are left -- for wives, and we -- we have sworn by Jehovah not to give to them of our daughters for wives?'
field: 7021008
7
21
8
And they say, `Who is `that' one out of the tribes of Israel who hath not come up unto Jehovah to Mizpeh?' and lo, none hath come in unto the camp from Jabesh-Gilead -- unto the assembly.
field: 7021009
7
21
9
And the people numbered themselves, and lo, there is not there a man of the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead.
field: 7021010
7
21
10
And the company send there twelve thousand men of the sons of valour, and command them, saying, `Go -- and ye have smitten the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead by the mouth of the sword, even the women and the infants.
field: 7021011
7
21
11
And this `is' the thing which ye do; every male, and every woman knowing the lying of a male, ye devote.'
field: 7021012
7
21
12
And they find out of the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead four hundred young women, virgins, who have not known man by the lying of a male, and they bring them in unto the camp at Shiloh, which `is' in the land of Canaan.
field: 7021013
7
21
13
And all the company send, and speak, unto the sons of Benjamin who `are' in the rock Rimmon, and proclaim to them peace;
field: 7021014
7
21
14
and Benjamin turneth back at that time, and they give to them the women whom they have kept alive of the women of Jabesh-Gilead, and they have not found for `all of' them so.
field: 7021015
7
21
15
And the people repented concerning Benjamin, for Jehovah had made a breach among the tribes of Israel.
field: 7021016
7
21
16
And the elders of the company say, `What do we do to the remnant for wives -- for the women have been destroyed out of Benjamin?'
field: 7021017
7
21
17
And they say, `A possession of an escaped party `is' to Benjamin, and a tribe is not blotted out from Israel;
field: 7021018
7
21
18
and we -- we are not able to give to them wives out of our daughters, for the sons of Israel have sworn, saying, Cursed `is' he who is giving a wife to Benjamin.'
field: 7021019
7
21
19
And they say, `Lo, a festival of Jehovah `is' in Shiloh, from time to time, which `is' on the north of Beth-El, at the rising of the sun, by the highway which is going up from Beth-El to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah.'
field: 7021020
7
21
20
And they command the sons of Benjamin, saying, `Go -- and ye have laid wait in the vineyards,
field: 7021021
7
21
21
and have seen, and lo, if the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in dances -- then ye have gone out from the vineyards, and caught for you each his wife out of the daughters of Shiloh, and gone to the land of Benjamin;
field: 7021022
7
21
22
and it hath been, when their fathers or their brethren come in to plead unto us, that we have said unto them, Favour us `by' them, for we have not taken `to' each his wife in battle, for ye -- ye have not given to them at this time `that' ye are guilty.'
field: 7021023
7
21
23
And the sons of Benjamin do so, and take women according to their number, out of the dancers whom they have taken violently away; and they go, and turn back unto their inheritance, and build the cities, and dwell in them.
field: 7021024
7
21
24
And the sons of Israel go up and down thence at that time, each to his tribe, and to his family; and they go out thence each to his inheritance.
field: 7021025
7
21
25
In those days there is no king in Israel; each doth that which is right in his own eyes.
field: 8001001
8

1
And it cometh to pass, in the days of the judging of the judges, that there is a famine in the land, and there goeth a man from Beth-Lehem-Judah to sojourn in the fields of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
field: 8001002
8
1
2
And the name of the man `is' Elimelech, and the name of his wife Naomi, and the name of his two sons Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites from Beth-Lehem-Judah; and they come into the fields of Moab, and are there.
field: 8001003
8
1
3
And Elimelech husband of Naomi dieth, and she is left, she and her two sons;
field: 8001004
8
1
4
and they take to them wives, Moabitesses: the name of the one `is' Orpah, and the name of the second Ruth; and they dwell there about ten years.
field: 8001005
8
1
5
And they die also, both of them -- Mahlon and Chilion -- and the woman is left of her two children and of her husband.
field: 8001006
8
1
6
And she riseth, she and her daughters-in-law, and turneth back from the fields of Moab, for she hath heard in the fields of Moab that God hath looked after His people, -- to give to them bread.
field: 8001007
8
1
7
And she goeth out from the place where she hath been, and her two daughters-in-law with her, and they go in the way to turn back unto the land of Judah.
field: 8001008
8
1
8
And Naomi saith to her two daughters-in-law, `Go, turn back, each to the house of her mother; Jehovah doth with you kindness as ye have done with the dead, and with me;
field: 8001009
8
1
9
Jehovah doth grant to you, and find ye rest each in the house of her husband;' and she kisseth them, and they lift up their voice and weep.
field: 8001010
8
1
10
And they say to her, `Surely with thee we go back to thy people.'
field: 8001011
8
1
11
And Naomi saith, `Turn back, my daughters; why do ye go with me? are there yet to me sons in my bowels that they have been to you for husbands?
field: 8001012
8
1
12
Turn back, my daughters, go, for I am too aged to be to a husband; though I had said, There is for me hope, also, I have been to-night to a husband, and also I have borne sons:
field: 8001013
8
1
13
for them do ye wait till that they grow up? for them do ye shut yourselves up, not to be to a husband? nay, my daughters, for more bitter to me than to you, for the hand of Jehovah hath gone out against me.'
field: 8001014
8
1
14
And they lift up their voice, and weep again, and Orpah kisseth her mother-in-law, and Ruth hath cleaved to her.
field: 8001015
8
1
15
And she saith, `Lo, thy sister-in-law hath turned back unto her people, and unto her god, turn thou back after thy sister-in-law.'
field: 8001016
8
1
16
And Ruth saith, `Urge me not to leave thee -- to turn back from after thee; for whither thou goest I go, and where thou lodgest I lodge; thy people `is' my people, and thy God my God.
field: 8001017
8
1
17
Where thou diest I die, and there I am buried; thus doth Jehovah to me, and thus doth He add -- for death itself doth part between me and thee.'
field: 8001018
8
1
18
And she seeth that she is strengthening herself to go with her, and she ceaseth to speak unto her;
field: 8001019
8
1
19
and they go both of them till their coming in to Beth-Lehem; and it cometh to pass at their coming in to Beth-Lehem, that all the city is moved at them, and they say, `Is this Naomi?'
field: 8001020
8
1
20
And she saith unto them, `Call me not Naomi; call me Mara, for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly to me,
field: 8001021
8
1
21
I went out full, and empty hath Jehovah brought me back, why do ye call me Naomi, and Jehovah hath testified against me, and the Almighty hath done evil to me?'
field: 8001022
8
1
22
And Naomi turneth back, and Ruth the Moabitess her daughter-in-law with her, who hath turned back from the fields of Moab, and they have come in to Beth-Lehem at the commencement of barley-harvest.
field: 8002001
8
2
1
And Naomi hath an acquaintance of her husband's, a man mighty in wealth, of the family of Elimelech, and his name `is' Boaz.
field: 8002002
8
2
2
And Ruth the Moabitess saith unto Naomi, `Let me go, I pray thee, into the field, and I gather among the ears of corn after him in whose eyes I find grace;' and she saith to her, `Go, my daughter.'
field: 8002003
8
2
3
And she goeth and cometh and gathereth in a field after the reapers, and her chance happeneth -- the portion of the field is Boaz's who `is' of the family of Elimelech.
field: 8002004
8
2
4
And lo, Boaz hath come from Beth-Lehem, and saith to the reapers, `Jehovah `is' with you;' and they say to him, `Jehovah doth bless thee.'
field: 8002005
8
2
5
And Boaz saith to his young man who is set over the reapers, `Whose `is' this young person?'
field: 8002006
8
2
6
And the young man who is set over the reapers answereth and saith, `A young woman -- Moabitess -- she `is', who came back with Naomi from the fields of Moab,
field: 8002007
8
2
7
and she saith, Let me glean, I pray thee -- and I have gathered among the sheaves after the reapers; and she cometh and remaineth since the morning and till now; she sat in the house a little.
field: 8002008
8
2
8
And Boaz saith unto Ruth, `Hast thou not heard, my daughter? go not to glean in another field, and also, pass not over from this, and thus thou dost cleave to my young women:
field: 8002009
8
2
9
thine eyes `are' on the field which they reap, and thou hast gone after them; have not I charged the young men not to touch thee? when thou art athirst then thou hast gone unto the vessels, and hast drunk from that which the young men draw.'
field: 8002010
8
2
10
And she falleth on her face, and boweth herself to the earth, and saith unto him, `Wherefore have I found grace in thine eyes, to discern me, and I a stranger?'
field: 8002011
8
2
11
And Boaz answereth and saith to her, `It hath thoroughly been declared to me all that thou hast done with thy mother-in-law, after the death of thy husband, and thou dost leave thy father, and thy mother, and the land of thy birth, and dost come in unto a people which thou hast not known heretofore.
field: 8002012
8
2
12
Jehovah doth recompense thy work, and thy reward is complete from Jehovah, God of Israel, under whose wings thou hast come to take refuge.'
field: 8002013
8
2
13
And she saith, `Let me find grace in thine eyes, my lord, because thou hast comforted me, and because thou hast spoken unto the heart of thy maid-servant, and I -- I am not as one of thy maid-servants.'
field: 8002014
8
2
14
And Boaz saith to her, `At meal-time come nigh hither, and thou hast eaten of the bread, and dipped thy morsel in the vinegar.' And she sitteth at the side of the reapers, and he reacheth to her roasted corn, and she eateth, and is satisfied, and leaveth.
field: 8002015
8
2
15
And she riseth to glean, and Boaz chargeth his young men, saying, `Even between the sheaves she doth glean, and ye do not cause her to blush;
field: 8002016
8
2
16
and also ye do surely cast to her of the handfuls -- and have left, and she hath gleaned, and ye do not push against her.'
field: 8002017
8
2
17
And she gleaneth in the field till the evening, and beateth out that which she hath gleaned, and it is about an ephah of barley;
field: 8002018
8
2
18
and she taketh `it' up, and goeth into the city, and her mother-in-law seeth that which she hath gleaned, and she bringeth out and giveth to her that which she left from her satiety.
field: 8002019
8
2
19
And her mother-in-law saith to her, `Where hast thou gleaned to-day? and where hast thou wrought? may he who is discerning thee be blessed.' And she declareth to her mother-in-law with whom she hath wrought, and saith, `The name of the man with whom I have wrought to-day `is' Boaz.'
field: 8002020
8
2
20
And Naomi saith to her daughter-in-law, `Blessed `is' he of Jehovah who hath not forsaken His kindness with the living and with the dead;' and Naomi saith to her, `The man is a relation of ours; he `is' of our redeemers.'
field: 8002021
8
2
21
And Ruth the Moabitess saith, `Also he surely said unto me, Near the young people whom I have thou dost cleave till they have completed the whole of the harvest which I have.'
field: 8002022
8
2
22
And Naomi saith unto Ruth her daughter-in-law, `Good, my daughter, that thou goest out with his young women, and they come not against thee in another field.'
field: 8002023
8
2
23
And she cleaveth to the young women of Boaz to glean, till the completion of the barley-harvest, and of the wheat-harvest, and she dwelleth with her mother-in-law.
field: 8003001
8
3
1
And Naomi her mother-in-law saith to her, `My daughter, do not I seek for thee rest, that it may be well with thee?
field: 8003002
8
3
2
and now, is not Boaz of our acquaintance, with whose young women thou hast been? lo, he is winnowing the threshing-floor of barley to-night,
field: 8003003
8
3
3
and thou hast bathed, and anointed thyself, and put thy garments upon thee, and gone down to the threshing-floor; let not thyself be known to the man till he complete to eat and to drink;
field: 8003004
8
3
4
and it cometh to pass when he lieth down, that thou hast known the place where he lieth down, and hast gone in, and uncovered his feet, and lain down, -- and he doth declare to thee that which thou dost do.'
field: 8003005
8
3
5
And she saith unto her, `All that thou sayest -- I do.'
field: 8003006
8
3
6
And she goeth down `to' the threshing-floor, and doth according to all that her mother-in-law commanded her
field: 8003007
8
3
7
And Boaz eateth and drinketh, and his heart is glad; and he goeth in to lie down at the end of the heap; and she cometh in gently, and uncovereth his feet, and lieth down.
field: 8003008
8
3
8
And it cometh to pass, at the middle of the night, that the man trembleth, and turneth himself, and lo, a woman is lying at his feet.
field: 8003009
8
3
9
And he saith, `Who `art' thou?' and she saith, `I `am' Ruth thy handmaid, and thou hast spread thy skirt over thy handmaid, for thou `art' a redeemer.'
field: 8003010
8
3
10
And he saith, `Blessed `art' thou of Jehovah, my daughter; thou hast dealt more kindly at the latter end than at the beginning -- not to go after the young men, either poor or rich.
field: 8003011
8
3
11
And now, my daughter, fear not, all that thou sayest I do to thee, for all the gate of my people doth know that thou `art' a virtuous woman.
field: 8003012
8
3
12
And now, surely, true, that I `am' a redeemer, but also there is a redeemer nearer than I.
field: 8003013
8
3
13
Lodge to night, and it hath been in the morning, if he doth redeem thee, well: he redeemeth; and if he delight not to redeem thee, then I have redeemed thee -- I; Jehovah liveth! lie down till the morning.'
field: 8003014
8
3
14
And she lieth down at his feet till the morning, and riseth before one doth discern another; and he saith, `Let it not be known that the woman hath come into the floor.'
field: 8003015
8
3
15
And he saith, `Give the covering which `is' on thee, and keep hold on it;' and she keepeth hold on it, and he measureth six `measures' of barley, and layeth `it' on her; and he goeth into the city.
field: 8003016
8
3
16
And she cometh in unto her mother-in-law, and she saith, `Who `art' thou, my daughter?' and she declareth to her all that the man hath done to her.
field: 8003017
8
3
17
And she saith, `These six `measures' of barley he hath given to me, for he said, Thou dost not go in empty unto thy mother-in-law.'
field: 8003018
8
3
18
And she saith, `Sit still, my daughter, till thou dost know how the matter falleth, for the man doth not rest except he hath completed the matter to-day.'
field: 8004001
8
4
1
And Boaz hath gone up to the gate, and sitteth there, and lo, the redeemer is passing by of whom Boaz had spoken, and he saith, `Turn aside, sit down here, such a one, such a one;' and he turneth aside and sitteth down.
field: 8004002
8
4
2
And he taketh ten men of the elders of the city, and saith, `Sit down here;' and they sit down.
field: 8004003
8
4
3
And he saith to the redeemer, `A portion of the field which `is' to our brother, to Elimelech, hath Naomi sold, who hath come back from the fields of Moab;
field: 8004004
8
4
4
and I said, I uncover thine ear, saying, Buy before the inhabitants, and before the elders of my people; if thou dost redeem -- redeem, and if none doth redeem -- declare to me, and I know, for there is none save thee to redeem, and I after thee.' And he saith, I redeem `it'.'
field: 8004005
8
4
5
And Boaz saith, `In the day of thy buying the field from the hand of Naomi, then from Ruth the Moabitess, wife of the dead, thou hast bought `it', to raise up the name of the dead over his inheritance.'
field: 8004006
8
4
6
And the redeemer saith, `I am not able to redeem `it' for myself, lest I destroy mine inheritance; redeem for thyself -- thou -- my right of redemption, for I am not able to redeem.'
field: 8004007
8
4
7
And this `is' formerly in Israel for redemption and for changing, to establish anything: a man hath drawn off his sandal, and given `it' to his neighbour, and this `is' the testimony in Israel.
field: 8004008
8
4
8
And the redeemer saith to Boaz, `Buy `it' for thyself,' and draweth off his sandal.
field: 8004009
8
4
9
And Boaz saith to the elders, and `to' all the people, `Witnesses `are' ye to-day that I have bought all that `is' to Elimelech, and all that `is' to Chilion and Mahlon, from the hand of Naomi;
field: 8004010
8
4
10
and also Ruth the Moabitess, wife of Mahlon, I have bought to myself for a wife, to raise up the name of the dead over his inheritance; and the name of the dead is not cut off from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place; witnesses ye `are' to-day.'
field: 8004011
8
4
11
And all the people who `are' in the gate say -- also the elders -- `Witnesses! Jehovah make the woman who is coming in unto thy house as Rachel and as Leah, both of whom built the house of Israel; and do thou virtuously in Ephrathah, and proclaim the Name in Beth-Lehem;
field: 8004012
8
4
12
and let thy house be as the house of Pharez (whom Tamar bare to Judah), of the seed which Jehovah doth give to thee of this young woman.'
field: 8004013
8
4
13
And Boaz taketh Ruth, and she becometh his wife, and he goeth in unto her, and Jehovah giveth to her conception, and she beareth a son.

And the women say unto Naomi, `Blessed `is' Jehovah who hath not let a redeemer cease to thee to-day, and his name is proclaimed in Israel,

and he hath been to thee for a restorer of life, and for a nourisher of thine old age, for thy daughter-in-law who hath loved thee -- who is better to thee than seven sons -- hath borne him.'

And Naomi taketh the lad, and layeth him in her bosom, and is to him for a nurse;

And there is a certain man of Ramathaim-Zophim, of the hill-country of Ephraim, and his name `is' Elkanah, son of Jeroham, son of Elihu, son of Tohu, son of Zuph, and Ephrathite,
field: 9001002

and he hath two wives, the name of the one `is' Hannah, and the name of the second Peninnah, and Peninnah hath children, and Hannah hath no children.

And that man hath gone up out of his city from time to time, to bow himself, and to sacrifice, before Jehovah of Hosts, in Shiloh, and there `are' two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests to Jehovah.
field: 9001004
9

And the day cometh, and Elkanah sacrificeth, and he hath given to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions,
field: 9001005
9
1
5
and to Hannah he giveth a certain portion -- double, for he hath loved Hannah, and Jehovah hath shut her womb;
field: 9001006
9
1
6
and her adversity hath also provoked her greatly, so as to make her tremble, for Jehovah hath shut up her womb.
field: 9001007
9

7
And so he doth year by year, from the time of her going up into the house of Jehovah, so it provoketh her, and she weepeth, and doth not eat.
field: 9001008
9

8
And Elkanah her husband saith to her, `Hannah, why weepest thou? and why dost thou not eat? and why is thy heart afflicted? am I not better to thee than ten sons?'
field: 9001009
9
1
9
And Hannah riseth after eating in Shiloh, and after drinking, and Eli the priest is sitting on the throne by the side-post of the temple of Jehovah.
field: 9001010
9
1
10
And she is bitter in soul, and prayeth unto Jehovah, and weepeth greatly,
field: 9001011
9
1
11
and voweth a vow, and saith, `Jehovah of Hosts, if Thou dost certainly look on the affliction of Thy handmaid, and hast remembered me, and dost not forget Thy handmaid, and hast given to Thy handmaid seed of men -- then I have given him to Jehovah all days of his life, and a razor doth not go up upon his head.'
field: 9001012
9
1
12
And it hath been, when she multiplied praying before Jehovah, that Eli is watching her mouth,
field: 9001013
9
1
13
and Hannah, she is speaking to her heart, only her lips are moving, and her voice is not heard, and Eli reckoneth her to be drunken.
field: 9001014
9
1
14
And Eli saith unto her, `Until when are thou drunken? turn aside thy wine from thee.'
field: 9001015
9
1
15
And Hannah answereth and saith, `No, my lord, A woman sharply pained in spirit I `am', and wine and strong drink I have not drunk, and I pour out my soul before Jehovah;
field: 9001016
9
1
16
put not thy handmaid before a daughter of worthlessness, for from the abundance of my meditation, and of my provocation, I have spoken hitherto.'
field: 9001017
9
1
17
And Eli answereth and saith, `Go in peace, and the God of Israel doth give thy petition which thou hast asked of Him.'
field: 9001018
9
1
18
And she saith, `Let thy handmaid find grace in thine eyes;' and the woman goeth on her way, and eateth, and her countenance hath not been `sad' for it any more.
field: 9001019
9
1
19
And they rise early in the morning, and bow themselves before Jehovah, and turn back, and come in unto their house in Ramah, and Elkanah knoweth Hannah his wife, and Jehovah remembereth her;
field: 9001020
9
1
20
and it cometh to pass, at the revolution of the days, that Hannah conceiveth, and beareth a son, and calleth his name Samuel, `for, from Jehovah I have asked him.'
field: 9001021
9
1
21
And the man Elkanah goeth up, and all his house, to sacrifice to Jehovah the sacrifice of the days, and his vow.
field: 9001022
9
1
22
And Hannah hath not gone up, for she said to her husband, `Till the youth is weaned -- then I have brought him in, and he hath appeared before the face of Jehovah, and dwelt there -- unto the age.'
field: 9001023
9
1
23
And Elkanah her husband saith to her, `Do that which is good in thine eyes; abide till thy weaning him; only, Jehovah establish His word;' and the woman abideth and suckleth her son till she hath weaned him,
field: 9001024
9
1
24
and she causeth him to go up with her when she hath weaned him, with three bullocks, and one ephah of flour, and a bottle of wine, and she bringeth him into the house of Jehovah at Shiloh, and the youth `is but' a youth.
field: 9001025
9
1
25
And they slaughter the bullock, and bring in the youth unto Eli,
field: 9001026

and she saith, `O, my lord, thy soul liveth! my lord, I `am' the woman who stood with thee in this `place', to pray unto Jehovah;

1
27
for this youth I prayed, and Jehovah doth give to me my petition which I asked of Him;
field: 9001028

and also I have caused him to be asked for Jehovah, all the days that he hath lived -- he is asked for Jehovah;' and he boweth himself there before Jehovah.

And Hannah prayeth, and saith: `My heart hath exulted in Jehovah, My horn hath been high in Jehovah, My mouth hath been large over mine enemies, For I have rejoiced in Thy salvation.

There is none holy like Jehovah, For there is none save Thee, And there is no rock like our God.

The satiated for bread hired themselves, And the hungry have ceased. While the barren hath borne seven, And she abounding with sons hath languished.

Jehovah putteth to death, and keepeth alive, He bringeth down to Sheol, and bringeth up.

Jehovah dispossesseth, and He maketh rich, He maketh low, yea, He maketh high.
field: 9002008
9
2
8
He raiseth from the dust the poor, From a dunghill He lifteth up the needy, To cause `them' to sit with nobles, Yea, a throne of honour He doth cause them to inherit, For to Jehovah `are' the fixtures of earth, And He setteth on them the habitable world.
field: 9002009

The feet of His saints He keepeth, And the wicked in darkness are silent, For not by power doth man become mighty.

Jehovah -- broken down are His adversaries, Against them in the heavens He thundereth: Jehovah judgeth the ends of earth, And giveth strength to His king, And exalteth the horn of His anointed.'
field: 9002011

11
And Elkanah goeth to Ramath, unto his house, and the youth hath been serving Jehovah, `in' the presence of Eli the priest;
field: 9002012
9
2
12
and the sons of Eli `are' sons of worthlessness, they have not known Jehovah.
field: 9002013

13
And the custom of the priests with the people `is': any man sacrificing a sacrifice -- then hath the servant of the priest come in when the flesh is boiling, and the hook of three teeth in his hand,
field: 9002014
9
2
14
and hath struck `it' into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the hook bringeth up doth the priest take for himself; thus they do to all Israel who are coming in, there, in Shiloh.
field: 9002015
9
2
15
Also before they make perfume with the fat -- then hath the priest's servant come in, and said to the man who is sacrificing, `Give flesh to roast for the priest, and he doth not take of thee flesh boiled, but raw;'
field: 9002016
9
2
16
and the man saith unto him, `Let them surely make a perfume (as to-day) with the fat, then take to thee as thy soul desireth;' and he hath said to him, `Surely now thou dost give; and if not -- I have taken by strength.'
field: 9002017
9

17
And the sin of the young men is very great `in' the presence of Jehovah, for the men have despised the offering of Jehovah.
field: 9002018
9
2
18
And Samuel is ministering `in' the presence of Jehovah, a youth girt `with' an ephod of linen;
field: 9002019
9
2
19
and a small upper coat doth his mother make to him, and she hath brought it up to him from time to time, in her coming up with her husband to sacrifice the sacrifice of the time.
field: 9002020
9
2
20
And Eli blessed Elkanah, and his wife, and said, `Jehovah doth appoint for thee seed of this woman, for the petition which she asked for Jehovah;' and they have gone to their place.
field: 9002021
9
2
21
When Jehovah hath looked after Hannah, then she conceiveth and beareth three sons and two daughters; and the youth Samuel groweth up with Jehovah.
field: 9002022
9
2
22
And Eli `is' very old, and hath heard all that his sons do to all Israel, and how that they lie with the women who are assembling `at' the opening of the tent of meeting,
field: 9002023
9
2
23
and he saith to them, `Why do ye things like these? for I am hearing of your evil words from all the people -- these!
field: 9002024
9
2
24
Nay, my sons; for the report which I am hearing is not good causing the people of Jehovah to transgress. --
field: 9002025
9
2
25
If a man sin against a man, then hath God judged him; but if against Jehovah a man sin, who doth pray for him?' and they hearken not to the voice of their father, though Jehovah hath delighted to put them to death.
field: 9002026
9
2
26
And the youth Samuel is going on and growing up, and `is' good both with Jehovah, and also with men.
field: 9002027
9
2
27
And there cometh a man of God unto Eli, and saith unto him, `Thus said Jehovah, Was I really revealed unto the house of thy father in their being in Egypt, before Pharaoh's house,
field: 9002028
9
2
28
even to choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to Me for a priest, to go up on Mine altar, to make a perfume, to bear an ephod before Me, and I give to the house of thy father all the fire-offerings of the sons of Israel?
field: 9002029
9
2
29
Why do ye kick at My sacrifice, and at Mine offering which I commanded `in' My habitation, and dost honour thy sons above Me, to make yourselves fat from the first part of every offering of Israel, of My people?
field: 9002030
9
2
30
`Therefore -- the affirmation of Jehovah, God of Israel -- I certainly said, Thy house and the house of thy father, do walk up and down before Me to the age; and now -- the affirmation of Jehovah -- Far be it from Me! for he who is honouring Me, I honour, and those despising Me, are lightly esteemed.
field: 9002031
9
2
31
`Lo, days `are' coming, and I have cut off thine arm, and the arm of the house of thy father, that an old man is not in thy house;
field: 9002032
9
2
32
and thou hast beheld an adversary `in My' habitation, in all that He doth good with Israel, and there is not an old man in thy house all the days.
field: 9002033
9
2
33
`And the man I cut not off of thine from Mine altar, `is' to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thy soul; and all the increase of thy house do die men;
field: 9002034
9
2
34
and this `is' to thee the sign that cometh unto thy two sons, unto Hophni and Phinehas -- in one day they die both of them;
field: 9002035
9
2
35
and I have raised up for Me a stedfast priest; as in My heart and in My soul he doth do; and I have built for him a stedfast house, and he hath walked up and down before Mine anointed all the days;
field: 9002036
9
2
36
and it hath been, every one who is left in thy house doth come in to bow himself to him, for a wage of silver, and a cake of bread, and hath said, Admit me, I pray thee, unto one of the priest's offices, to eat a morsel of bread.'

And the youth Samuel is serving Jehovah before Eli, and the word of Jehovah hath been precious in those days -- there is no vision broken forth.
field: 9003002
9
3
2
And it cometh to pass, at that time, that Eli is lying down in his place, and his eyes have begun to be dim -- he is not able to see.
field: 9003003
9
3
3
And the lamp of God is not yet extinguished, and Samuel is lying down in the temple of Jehovah, where the ark of God `is',
field: 9003004
9
3
4
and Jehovah calleth unto Samuel, and he saith, `Here `am' I.'
field: 9003005
9
3
5
And he runneth unto Eli, and saith, `Here `am' I, for thou hast called for me;' and he saith, `I called not; turn back, lie down;' and he goeth and lieth down.
field: 9003006
9
3
6
And Jehovah addeth to call again Samuel, and Samuel riseth and goeth unto Eli, and saith, `Here `am' I, for thou hast called for me;' and he saith, `I have not called, my son, turn back, lie down.'
field: 9003007
9
3
7
And Samuel hath not yet known Jehovah, and the word of Jehovah is not yet revealed unto him.
field: 9003008
9
3
8
And Jehovah addeth to call Samuel the third time, and he riseth and goeth unto Eli, and saith, `Here `am' I, for thou hast called for me;' and Eli understandeth that Jehovah is calling to the youth.
field: 9003009
9
3
9
And Eli saith to Samuel, `Go, lie down, and it hath been, if He doth call unto thee, that thou hast said, Speak, Jehovah, for Thy servant is hearing;' and Samuel goeth and lieth down in his place.
field: 9003010
9
3
10
And Jehovah cometh, and stationeth Himself, and calleth as time by time, `Samuel, Samuel;' and Samuel saith, `Speak, for Thy servant if hearing.'
field: 9003011
9
3
11
And Jehovah saith unto Samuel, `Lo, I am doing a thing in Israel, at which the two ears of every one hearing it do tingle.
field: 9003012
9
3
12
In that day I establish unto Eli all that I have spoken unto his house, beginning and completing;
field: 9003013
9
3
13
and I have declared to him that I am judging his house -- to the age, for the iniquity which he hath known, for his sons are making themselves vile, and he hath not restrained them,
field: 9003014
9
3
14
and therefore I have sworn to the house of Eli: the iniquity of the house of Eli is not atoned for, by sacrifice, and by offering -- unto the age.'
field: 9003015
9
3
15
And Samuel lieth till the morning, and openeth the doors of the house of Jehovah, and Samuel is afraid of declaring the vision unto Eli.
field: 9003016
9
3
16
And Eli calleth Samuel, and saith, `Samuel, my son;' and he saith, `Here `am' I.'
field: 9003017
9
3
17
And he saith, `What `is' the word which He hath spoken unto thee? I pray thee, hide it not from me; so doth God do to thee, and so doth He add, if thou hidest from me a word of all the words that He hath spoken unto thee.'
field: 9003018
9
3
18
And Samuel declareth to him the whole of the words, and hath not hid from him; and he saith, `It `is' Jehovah; that which is good in His eyes He doth.'
field: 9003019
9
3
19
And Samuel groweth up, and Jehovah hath been with him, and hath not let fall any of his words to the earth;
field: 9003020
9
3
20
and all Israel know, from Dan even unto Beer-Sheba, that Samuel is established for a prophet to Jehovah.
field: 9003021
9
3
21
And Jehovah addeth to appear in Shiloh, for Jehovah hath been revealed unto Samuel, in Shiloh, by the word of Jehovah.
field: 9004001
9
4
1
And the word of Samuel is to all Israel, and Israel goeth out to meet the Philistines for battle, and they encamp by Eben-Ezer, and the Philistines have encamped in Aphek,
field: 9004002
9
4
2
and the Philistines set themselves in array to meet Israel, and the battle spreadeth itself, and Israel is smitten before the Philistines, and they smite among the ranks in the field about four thousand men.
field: 9004003
9
4
3
And the people cometh in unto the camp, and the elders of Israel say, `Why hath Jehovah smitten us to-day before the Philistines? we take unto us from Shiloh the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and it cometh into our midst, and He doth save us out of the hand of our enemies.'
field: 9004004
9
4
4
And the people sendeth to Shiloh, and they take up thence the ark of the covenant of Jehovah of Hosts, inhabiting the cherubs, and there `are' two sons of Eli, with the ark of the covenant of God, Hophni and Phinehas.
field: 9004005
9
4
5
And it cometh to pass, at the coming in of the ark of the covenant of Jehovah unto the camp, that all Israel shout -- a great shout -- and the earth is moved.
field: 9004006
9
4
6
And the Philistines hear the noise of the shouting, and say, `What `is' the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews?' and they perceive that the ark of Jehovah hath come in unto the camp.
field: 9004007
9
4
7
And the Philistines are afraid, for they said, `God hath come in unto the camp;' and they say, `Wo to us, for there hath not been like this heretofore.
field: 9004008
9
4
8
Wo to us, who doth deliver us out of the hand of these honourable gods? these `are' the gods who are smiting the Egyptians with every plague in the wilderness.
field: 9004009
9
4
9
Strengthen yourselves, and become men, O Philistines, lest ye do service to Hebrews, as they have done to you -- then ye have become men, and have fought.'
field: 9004010
9
4
10
And the Philistines fight, and Israel is smitten, and they flee each to his tents, and the blow is very great, and there fall of Israel thirty thousand footmen;
field: 9004011
9
4
11
and the ark of God hath been taken, and the two sons of Eli have died, Hophni and Phinehas.
field: 9004012
9
4
12
And a man of Benjamin runneth out of the ranks, and cometh into Shiloh, on that day, and his long robes `are' rent, and earth on his head;
field: 9004013
9
4
13
and he cometh in, and lo, Eli is sitting on the throne by the side of the way, watching, for his heart hath been trembling for the ark of God, and the man hath come in to declare `it' in the city, and all the city crieth out.
field: 9004014
9
4
14
And Eli heareth the noise of the cry, and saith, `What -- the noise of this tumult!' And the man hasted, and cometh in, and declareth to Eli.
field: 9004015
9
4
15
And Eli is a son of ninety and eight years, and his eyes have stood, and he hath not been able to see.
field: 9004016
9
4
16
And the man saith unto Eli, `I `am' he who hath come out of the ranks, and I out of the ranks have fled to-day;' and he saith, `What hath been the matter, my son?'
field: 9004017
9
4
17
And he who is bearing tidings answereth and saith, `Israel hath fled before the Philistines, and also a great slaughter hath been among the people, and also thy two sons have died -- Hophni and Phinehas -- and the ark of God hath been captured.'
field: 9004018
9
4
18
And it cometh to pass, at his mentioning the ark of God, that he falleth from off the throne backward, by the side of the gate, and his neck is broken, and he dieth, for the man `is' old and heavy, and he hath judged Israel forty years.
field: 9004019
9
4
19
And his daughter-in-law, wife of Phinehas, `is' pregnant, about to bear, and she heareth the report of the taking of the ark of God, that her father-in-law and her husband have died, and she boweth, and beareth, for her pains have turned upon her.
field: 9004020
9
4
20
And at the time of her death, when the women who are standing by her say, `Fear not, for a son thou hast borne,' she hath not answered, nor set her heart `to it';
field: 9004021
9
4
21
and she calleth the youth I-Chabod, saying, `Honour hath removed from Israel,' because of the taking of the ark of God, and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
field: 9004022
9
4
22
And she saith, `Honour hath removed from Israel, for the ark of God hath been taken.'
field: 9005001
9

1
And the Philistines have taken the ark of God, and bring it in from Eben-Ezer to Ashdod,
field: 9005002
9
5
2
and the Philistines take the ark of God and bring it into the house of Dagon, and set it near Dagon.
field: 9005003
9
5
3
And the Ashdodites rise early on the morrow, and lo, Dagon is fallen on its face to the earth, before the ark of Jehovah; and they take Dagon, and put it back to its place.
field: 9005004
9
5
4
And they rise early in the morning on the morrow, and lo, Dagon is fallen on its face to the earth, before the ark of Jehovah, and the head of Dagon, and the two palms of its hands are cut off at the threshold, only the fishy part hath been left to him;
field: 9005005
9
5
5
therefore the priests of Dagon, and all those coming into the house of Dagon, tread not on the threshold of Dagon, in Ashdod, till this day.
field: 9005006
9
5
6
And the hand of Jehovah is heavy on the Ashdodites, and He maketh them desolate, and smiteth them with emerods, Ashdod and its borders.
field: 9005007
9
5
7
And the men of Ashdod see that `it is' so, and have said, `The ark of the God of Israel doth not abide with us, for hard hath been His hand upon us, and upon Dagon our god.'
field: 9005008
9
5
8
And they send and gather all the princes of the Philistines unto them, and say, `What do we do to the ark of the God of Israel?' and they say, `To Gath let the ark of the God of Israel be brought round;' and they bring round the ark of the God of Israel;
field: 9005009
9

9
and it cometh to pass after they have brought it round, that the hand of Jehovah is against the city -- a very great destruction; and He smiteth the men of the city, from small even unto great; and break forth on them do emerods.
field: 9005010
9
5
10
And they send the ark of God to Ekron, and it cometh to pass, at the coming in of the ark of God to Ekron, that the Ekronites cry out, saying, `They have brought round unto us the ark of the God of Israel, to put us to death -- and our people.'

And they send and gather all the princes of the Philistines, and say, `Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and it turneth back to its place, and it doth not put us to death -- and our people;' for there hath been a deadly destruction throughout all the city, very heavy hath the hand of God been there,
field: 9005012

5
12
and the men who have not died have been smitten with emerods, and the cry of the city goeth up into the heavens.
field: 9006001
9

1
And the ark of Jehovah is in the field of the Philistines seven months,
field: 9006002
9
6
2
and the Philistines call for priests and for diviners, saying, `What do we do to the ark of Jehovah? let us know wherewith we send it to its place?'
field: 9006003
9
6
3
And they say, `If ye are sending away the ark of the God of Israel, ye do not send it away empty; for ye do certainly send back to Him a guilt-offering; then ye are healed, and it hath been known to you why His hand doth not turn aside from you.'
field: 9006004
9
6
4
And they say, `What `is' the guilt-offering which we send back to Him?' and they say, `The number of the princes of the Philistines -- five golden emerods, and five golden mice -- for one plague `is' to you all, and to your princes,
field: 9006005
9
6
5
and ye have made images of your emerods, and images of your mice that are corrupting the land, and have given honour to the God of Israel; it may be He doth lighten His hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land;
field: 9006006
9
6
6
and why do ye harden your heart as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their heart? do they not -- when He hath rolled Himself upon them -- send them away, and they go?
field: 9006007
9
6
7
`And now, take and make one new cart, and two suckling kine, on which a yoke hath not gone up, and ye have bound the kine in the cart, and caused their young ones to turn back from after them to the house,
field: 9006008
9
6
8
and ye have taken the ark of Jehovah, and put it on the cart, and the vessels of gold which ye have returned to Him -- a guilt-offering -- ye put in a coffer on its side, and have sent it away, and it hath gone;
field: 9006009
9
6
9
and ye have seen, if the way of its own border it goeth up to Beth-Shemesh -- He hath done to us this great evil; and if not, then we have known that His hand hath not come against us; an accident it hath been to us.'
field: 9006010
9
6
10
And the men do so, and take two suckling kine, and bind them in the cart, and their young ones they have shut up in the house;
field: 9006011
9
6
11
and they place the ark of Jehovah upon the cart, and the coffer, and the golden mice, and the images of their emerods.
field: 9006012
9
6
12
And the kine go straight in the way, on the way to Beth-Shemesh, in one highway they have gone, going and lowing, and have not turned aside right or left; and the princes of the Philistines are going after them unto the border of Beth-Shemesh.
field: 9006013
9
6
13
And the Beth-Shemeshites are reaping their wheat-harvest in the valley, and they lift up their eyes, and see the ark, and rejoice to see `it'.
field: 9006014
9
6
14
And the cart hath come in unto the field of Joshua the Beth-Shemeshite, and standeth there, and there `is' a great stone, and they cleave the wood of the cart, and the kine they have caused to ascend -- a burnt-offering to Jehovah.
field: 9006015
9
6
15
And the Levites have taken down the ark of Jehovah, and the coffer which `is' with it, in which `are' the vessels of gold, and place `them' on the great stone; and the men of Beth-Shemesh have caused to ascend burnt-offerings and sacrifice sacrifices in that day to Jehovah;
field: 9006016
9
6
16
and the five princes of the Philistines have seen `it', and turn back `to' Ekron, on that day.
field: 9006017
9
6
17
And these `are' the golden emerods which the Philistines have sent back -- a guilt-offering to Jehovah: for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Ashkelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one;
field: 9006018
9
6
18
and the golden mice -- the number of all the cities of the Philistines -- for the five princes, from the fenced city even unto the hamlet of the villages, even unto the great meadow on which they placed the ark of Jehovah -- `are' unto this day in the field of Joshua the Beth-Shemeshite.
field: 9006019
9
6
19
And He smiteth among the men of Beth-Shemesh, for they looked into the ark of Jehovah, yea, He smiteth among the people seventy men -- fifty chief men; and the people mourn, because Jehovah smote among the people -- a great smiting.
field: 9006020
9
6
20
And the men of Beth-Shemesh say, `Who is able to stand before Jehovah, this holy God? and unto whom doth He go up from us?'
field: 9006021
9
6
21
And they send messengers unto the inhabitants of Kirjath-Jearim, saying, `The Philistines have sent back the ark of Jehovah; come down, take it up unto you.'
field: 9007001
9
7
1
And the men of Kirjath-Jearim come and bring up the ark of Jehovah, and bring it in unto the house of Abinadab, in the height, and Eleazar his son they have sanctified to keep the ark of Jehovah.
field: 9007002
9
7
2
And it cometh to pass, from the day of the dwelling of the ark in Kirjath-Jearim, that the days are multiplied -- yea, they are twenty years -- and wail do all the house of Israel after Jehovah.
field: 9007003
9
7
3
And Samuel speaketh unto all the house of Israel, saying, `If with all your heart ye are turning back unto Jehovah -- turn aside the gods of the stranger from your midst, and Ashtaroth; and prepare your heart unto Jehovah, and serve Him only, and He doth deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.'
field: 9007004
9
7
4
And the sons of Israel turn aside the Baalim and Ashtaroth, and serve Jehovah alone;
field: 9007005
9
7
5
and Samuel saith, `Gather all Israel to Mizpeh, and I pray for you unto Jehovah.'
field: 9007006
9
7
6
And they are gathered to Mizpeh, and draw water, and pour out before Jehovah, and fast on that day, and say there, `We have sinned against Jehovah;' and Samuel judgeth the sons of Israel in Mizpeh.
field: 9007007
9
7
7
And the Philistines hear that the sons of Israel have gathered themselves to Mizpeh; and the princes of the Philistines go up against Israel, and the sons of Israel hear, and are afraid of the presence of the Philistines.
field: 9007008
9
7
8
And the sons of Israel say unto Samuel, `Keep not silent for us from crying unto Jehovah our God, and He doth save us out of the hand of the Philistines.'
field: 9007009
9
7
9
And Samuel taketh a fat lamb, and causeth it to go up -- a burnt-offering whole to Jehovah; and Samuel crieth unto Jehovah for Israel, and Jehovah answereth him;
field: 9007010
9
7
10
and Samuel is causing the burnt-offering to go up -- and the Philistines have drawn nigh to battle against Israel -- and Jehovah doth thunder with a great noise, on that day, upon the Philistines, and troubleth them, and they are smitten before Israel.
field: 9007011
9
7
11
And the men of Israel go out from Mizpeh, and pursue the Philistines, and smite them unto the place of Beth-Car.
field: 9007012
9
7
12
And Samuel taketh a stone, and setteth `it' between Mizpeh and Shen, and calleth its name Eben-Ezer, saying, `Hitherto hath Jehovah helped us.'
field: 9007013
9
7
13
And the Philistines are humbled, and have not added any more to come into the border of Israel, and the hand of Jehovah is on the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
field: 9007014
9
7
14
And the cities which the Philistines have taken from Israel are restored to Israel -- from Ekron even unto Gath -- and their border hath Israel delivered out of the hand of the Philistines; and there is peace between Israel and the Amorite.
field: 9007015
9
7
15
And Samuel judgeth Israel all the days of his life,
field: 9007016
9
7
16
and he hath gone from year to year, and gone round Beth-El, and Gilgal, and Mizpeh, and judged Israel `in' all these places;
field: 9007017
9
7
17
and his returning `is' to Ramath, for there `is' his house, and there he hath judged Israel, and he buildeth there an altar to Jehovah.
field: 9008001
9
8
1
And it cometh to pass, when Samuel `is' aged, that he maketh his sons judges over Israel.
field: 9008002
9
8
2
And the name of his first-born son is Joel, and the name of his second Abiah, judges in Beer-Sheba:
field: 9008003
9
8
3
and his sons have not walked in his ways, and turn aside after the dishonest gain, and take a bribe, and turn aside judgment.
field: 9008004
9
8
4
And all the elders of Israel gather themselves together, and come in unto Samuel to Ramath,
field: 9008005
9
8
5
and say unto him, `Lo, thou hast become aged, and thy sons have not walked in thy ways; now, appoint to us a king, to judge us, like all the nations.'
field: 9008006
9
8
6
And the thing is evil in the eyes of Samuel, when they have said, `Give to us a king to judge us;' and Samuel prayeth unto Jehovah.
field: 9008007
9
8
7
And Jehovah saith unto Samuel, `Hearken to the voice of the people, to all that they say unto thee, for thee they have not rejected, but Me they have rejected, from reigning over them.
field: 9008008
9
8
8
According to all the works that they have done from the day of My bringing them up out of Egypt, even unto this day, when they forsake Me, and serve other gods -- so they are doing also to thee.
field: 9008009
9
8
9
And now, hearken to their voice; only, surely thou dost certainly protest to them, and hast declared to them the custom of the king who doth reign over them.'
field: 9008010
9
8
10
And Samuel speaketh all the words of Jehovah unto the people who are asking from him a king,
field: 9008011
9
8
11
and saith, `This is the custom of the king who doth reign over you: Your sons he doth take, and hath appointed for himself among his chariots, and among his horsemen, and they have run before his chariots;
field: 9008012
9
8
12
also to appoint for himself heads of thousands, and heads of fifties; also to plow his plowing, and to reap his reaping; and to make instruments of his war, and instruments of his charioteer.
field: 9008013
9
8
13
`And your daughters he doth take for perfumers, and for cooks, and for bakers;
field: 9008014
9
8
14
and your fields, and your vineyards, and your olive-yards -- the best -- he doth take, and hath given to his servants.
field: 9008015
9
8
15
And your seed and your vineyards he doth tithe, and hath given to his eunuchs, and to his servants.
field: 9008016
9
8
16
And your men-servants, and your maid-servants, and your young men -- the best, and your asses, he doth take, and hath prepared for his own work;
field: 9008017
9
8
17
your flock he doth tithe, and ye are to him for servants.
field: 9008018
9
8
18
And ye have cried out in that day because of the king whom ye have chosen for yourselves, and Jehovah doth not answer you in that day.'
field: 9008019
9
8
19
And the people refuse to hearken to the voice of Samuel, and say, `Nay, but a king is over us,
field: 9008020
9
8
20
and we have been, even we, like all the nations; and our king hath judged us, and gone out before us, and fought our battles.'
field: 9008021
9
8
21
And Samuel heareth all the words of the people, and speaketh them in the ears of Jehovah;
field: 9008022
9
8
22
and Jehovah saith unto Samuel, `Hearken to their voice, and thou hast caused to reign over them a king.' And Samuel saith unto the men of Israel, `Go ye each to his city.'

1
And there is a man of Benjamin, and his name `is' Kish, son of Abiel, son of Zeror, son of Bechorath, son of Aphiah, a Benjamite, mighty of valour,
field: 9009002
9
9
2
and he hath a son, and his name `is' Saul, a choice youth and goodly, and there is not a man among the sons of Israel goodlier than he -- from his shoulder and upward, higher than any of the people.
field: 9009003
9
9
3
And the asses of Kish, father of Saul, are lost, and Kish saith unto Saul his son, `Take, I pray thee, with thee, one of the young men, and rise, go, seek the asses.'
field: 9009004
9
9
4
And he passeth over through the hill-country of Ephraim, and passeth over through the land of Shalisha, and they have not found; and they pass over through the land of Shaalim, and they are not; and he passeth over through the land of Benjamin, and they have not found.
field: 9009005
9
9
5
They have come in unto the land of Zuph, and Saul hath said to his young man who `is' with him, `Come, and we turn back, lest my father leave off from the asses, and hath been sorrowful for us.'
field: 9009006
9
9
6
And he saith to him, `Lo, I pray thee, a man of God `is' in this city, and the man is honoured; all that he speaketh doth certainly come; now, we go there, it may be he doth declare to us our way on which we have gone.'
field: 9009007
9
9
7
And Saul saith to his young man, `And lo, we go, and what do we bring in to the man? for the bread hath gone from our vessels, and a present there is not to bring in to the man of God -- what `is' with us?'
field: 9009008
9
9
8
And the young man addeth to answer Saul, and saith, `Lo, there is found with me a fourth of a shekel of silver: and I have given to the man of God, and he hath declared to us our way.'
field: 9009009
9
9
9
Formerly in Israel, thus said the man in his going to seek God, `Come and we go unto the seer,' for the `prophet' of to-day is called formerly `the seer.'
field: 9009010
9
9
10
And Saul saith to his young man, `Thy word `is' good; come, we go;' and they go unto the city where the man of God `is'.
field: 9009011
9
9
11
They are going up in the ascent of the city, and have found young women going out to draw water, and say to them, `Is the seer in this `place'?'
field: 9009012
9
9
12
And they answer them and say, `He is; lo, before thee! haste, now, for to-day he hath come in to the city, for the people hath a stated sacrifice in a high place.
field: 9009013
9
9
13
At your going in to the city so ye do find him, before he doth go up in to the high place to eat; for the people do not eat till his coming, for he doth bless the sacrifice; afterwards they eat, who are called, and now, go up, for at this time ye find him.'
field: 9009014
9
9
14
And they go up in to the city; they are coming in to the midst of the city, and lo, Samuel is coming out to meet them, to go up to the high place;
field: 9009015
9
9
15
and Jehovah had uncovered the ear of Samuel one day before the coming of Saul, saying,
field: 9009016
9
9
16
`At this time tomorrow, I send unto thee a man out of the land of Benjamin -- and thou hast anointed him for leader over My people Israel, and he hath saved My people out of the hand of the Philistines; for I have seen My people, for its cry hath come in unto Me.'
field: 9009017
9
9
17
When Samuel hath seen Saul, then hath Jehovah answered him, `Lo, the man of whom I have spoken unto thee; this `one' doth restrain My people.'
field: 9009018
9
9
18
And Saul draweth nigh to Samuel in the midst of the gate, and saith, `Declare, I pray thee, to me, where `is' this -- the seer's house?'
field: 9009019
9
9
19
And Samuel answereth Saul and saith, `I `am' the seer; go up before me into the high place, and ye have eaten with me to-day, and I have sent thee away in the morning, and all that `is' in thy heart I declare to thee.
field: 9009020
9
9
20
As to the asses which are lost to thee this day three days, set not thy heart to them, for they have been found; and to whom `is' all the desire of Israel?' is it not to thee and to all thy father's house?'
field: 9009021
9
9
21
And Saul answereth and saith, `Am not I a Benjamite -- of the smallest of the tribes of Israel? and my family the least of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? and why hast thou spoken unto me according to this word?'
field: 9009022
9
9
22
And Samuel taketh Saul, and his young man, and bringeth them in to the chamber, and giveth to them a place at the head of those called; and they `are' about thirty men.
field: 9009023
9
9
23
And Samuel saith to the cook, `Give the portion which I gave to thee, of which I said unto thee, `Set it by thee?'
field: 9009024
9
9
24
(and the cook lifteth up the leg, and that which `is' on it, and setteth before Saul), and he saith, `Lo, that which is left; set `it' before thee -- eat, for to this appointed season it is kept for thee, saying, The people I have called;' and Saul eateth with Samuel on that day.
field: 9009025
9
9
25
And they come down from the high place to the city, and he speaketh with Saul on the roof.
field: 9009026
9
9
26
And they rise early, and it cometh to pass, at the ascending of the dawn, that Samuel calleth unto Saul, on the roof, saying, `Rise, and I send thee away;' and Saul riseth, and they go out, both of them -- he and Samuel, without.
field: 9009027
9
9
27
They are going down in the extremity of the city, and Samuel hath said unto Saul, `Say to the young man that he pass on before us (and he passeth on), and thou, stand at this time, and I cause thee to hear the word of God.'
field: 9010001
9

And Samuel taketh the vial of the oil, and poureth on his head, and kisseth him, and saith, `Is it not because Jehovah hath appointed thee over His inheritance for leader?

2
In thy going to-day from me -- then thou hast found two men by the grave of Rachel, in the border of Benjamin, at Zelzah, and they have said unto thee, The asses have been found which thou hast gone to seek; and lo, thy father hath left the matter of the asses, and hath sorrowed for you, saying, What do I do for my son?
field: 9010003
9
10
3
`And thou hast passed on thence, and beyond, and hast come in unto the oak of Tabor, and found thee there have three men going up unto God to Beth-El, one bearing three kids, and one bearing three cakes of bread, and one bearing a bottle of wine,

and they have asked of thee of welfare, and given to thee two loaves, and thou hast received from their hand.

`Afterwards thou dost come unto the hill of God, where the garrison of the Philistines `is', and it cometh to pass, at thy coming in thither to the city, that thou hast met a band of prophets coming down from the high place, and before them psaltery, and tabret, and pipe, and harp, and they are prophesying;
field: 9010006
9
10
6
and prospered over thee hath the Spirit of Jehovah, and thou hast prophesied with them, and hast been turned to another man;

and it hath been, when these signs come to thee -- do for thyself as thy hand findeth, for God `is' with thee.

`And thou hast gone down before me to Gilgal, and lo, I am going down unto thee, to cause to ascend burnt-offerings, to sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings; seven days thou dost wait till my coming in unto thee, and I have made known to thee that which thou dost do.'
field: 9010009
9
10
9
And it hath been, at his turning his shoulder to go from Samuel, that God turneth to him another heart, and all these signs come on that day,

9
10
10
and they come in thither to the height, and lo, a band of prophets -- to meet him, and prosper over him doth the Spirit of God, and he prophesieth in their midst.
field: 9010011
9
10
11
And it cometh to pass, all his acquaintance heretofore, see, and lo, with prophets he hath prophesied, and the people say one unto another, `What `is' this hath happened to the son of Kish? is Saul also among the prophets?'
field: 9010012
9
10
12
And a man thence answereth and saith, `And who `is' their father?' therefore it hath been for a simile, `Is Saul also among the prophets?'
field: 9010013
9
10
13
And he ceaseth from prophesying, and cometh in to the high place,
field: 9010014
9
10
14
and the uncle of Saul saith unto him, and unto his young man, `Whither went ye?' and he saith, `To seek the asses; and we see that they are not, and we come in unto Samuel.'

9
10
15
And the uncle of Saul saith, `Declare, I pray thee, to me, what Samuel said to you?'
field: 9010016
9
10
16
And Saul saith unto his uncle, `He certainly declared to us that the asses were found;' and of the matter of the kingdom he hath not declared to him that which Samuel said.
field: 9010017
9
10
17
And Samuel calleth the people unto Jehovah to Mizpeh,
field: 9010018
9
10
18
and saith unto the sons of Israel, `Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, I have brought up Israel out of Egypt, and I deliver you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms who are oppressing you;

19
and ye to-day have rejected your God, who `is' Himself your saviour out of all your evils and your distresses, and ye say, `Nay, but -- a king thou dost set over us; and now, station yourselves before Jehovah, by your tribes, and by your thousands.'

20
And Samuel bringeth near the whole tribes of Israel, and the tribe of Benjamin is captured,

9
10
21
and he bringeth near the tribe of Benjamin by its families, and the family of Matri is captured, and Saul son of Kish is captured, and they seek him, and he hath not been found.
field: 9010022
9
10
22
And they ask again at Jehovah, `Hath the man yet come hither?' and Jehovah saith, `Lo, he hath been hidden near the vessels.'
field: 9010023
9
10
23
And they run and bring him thence, and he stationed himself in the midst of the people, and he is higher than any of the people from his shoulder and upward.
field: 9010024
9
10
24
And Samuel saith unto all the people, `Have ye seen him on whom Jehovah hath fixed, for there is none like him among all the people?' And all the people shout, and say, `Let the king live!'
field: 9010025
9
10

And Samuel speaketh unto the people the right of the kingdom, and writeth in a book, and placeth before Jehovah; and Samuel sendeth all the people away, each to his house.

And also Saul hath gone to his house, to Gibeah, and the force go with him whose heart God hath touched;

and the sons of worthlessness have said, `What! this one doth save us!' and they despise him, and have not brought to him a present; and he is as one deaf.

And Nahash the Ammonite cometh up, and encampeth against Jabesh-Gilead, and all the men of Jabesh say unto Nahash, `Make with us a covenant, and we serve thee.'

and lo, Saul hath come after the herd out of the field, and Saul saith, `What -- to the people, that they weep?' and they recount to him the words of the men of Jabesh.
field: 9011006
9
11
6
And the Spirit of God doth prosper over Saul, in his hearing these words, and his anger burneth greatly,
field: 9011007
9
11
7
and he taketh a couple of oxen, and cutteth them in pieces, and sendeth through all the border of Israel, by the hand of the messengers, saying, `He who is not coming out after Saul and after Samuel -- thus it is done to his oxen;' and the fear of Jehovah falleth on the people, and they come out as one man.
field: 9011008
9
11
8
And he inspecteth them in Bezek, and the sons of Israel are three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
field: 9011009
9
11
9
And they say to the messengers who are coming, `Thus do ye say to the men of Jabesh-Gilead: To-morrow ye have safety -- by the heat of the sun;' and the messengers come and declare to the men of Jabesh, and they rejoice;
field: 9011010
9
11
10
and the men of Jabesh say `to the Ammonites', `To-morrow we come out unto you, and ye have done to us according to all that `is' good in your eyes.'
field: 9011011
9
11
11
And it cometh to pass, on the morrow, that Saul putteth the people in three detachments, and they come into the midst of the camp in the morning-watch, and smite Ammon till the heat of the day; and it cometh to pass that those left are scattered, and there have not been left of them two together.
field: 9011012
9
11
12
And the people say unto Samuel, `Who is he that saith, Saul doth reign over us! give ye up the men, and we put them to death.'
field: 9011013
9
11
13
And Saul saith, `There is no man put to death on this day, for to-day hath Jehovah wrought salvation in Israel.'
field: 9011014
9
11
14
And Samuel saith unto the people, `Come and we go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there;'
field: 9011015
9
11
15
and all the people go to Gilgal, and cause Saul to reign there before Jehovah in Gilgal, and sacrifice there sacrifices of peace-offerings before Jehovah, and there Saul rejoiceth -- and all the men of Israel -- very greatly.
field: 9012001
9
12
1
And Samuel saith unto all Israel, `Lo, I have hearkened to your voice, to all that ye said to me, and I cause to reign over you a king,
field: 9012002
9
12
2
and now, lo, the king is walking habitually before you, and I have become aged and gray-headed, and my sons, lo, they `are' with you, and I have walked habitually before you from my youth till this day.
field: 9012003
9
12
3
`Lo, here `am' I; testify against me, over-against Jehovah, and over-against His anointed; whose ox have I taken, and whose ass have I taken, and whom have I oppressed; whom have I bruised, and of whose hand have I taken a ransom, and hide mine eyes with it? -- and I restore to you.'
field: 9012004
9
12
4
And they say, `Thou hast not oppressed us, nor hast thou crushed us, nor hast thou taken from the hand of any one anything.'
field: 9012005
9
12
5
And he saith unto them, `A witness `is' Jehovah against you: and a witness `is' His anointed this day, that ye have not found anything in my hand;' and they say, `A witness.'
field: 9012006
9
12
6
And Samuel saith unto the people, `Jehovah -- He who made Moses and Aaron, and who brought up your fathers out of the land of Egypt!
field: 9012007
9
12
7
and, now, station yourselves, and I judge you before Jehovah, with all the righteous acts of Jehovah, which He did with you, and with your fathers.
field: 9012008
9
12
8
`When Jacob hath come in to Egypt, and your fathers cry unto Jehovah, then Jehovah sendeth Moses and Aaron, and they bring out your fathers from Egypt, and cause them to dwell in this place,
field: 9012009
9
12
9
and they forget Jehovah their God, and He selleth them into the hand of Sisera, head of the host of Hazor, and into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the king of Moab, and they fight against them,
field: 9012010
9
12
10
and they cry unto Jehovah, and say, We have sinned, because we have forsaken Jehovah, and serve the Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and now, deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, and we serve Thee.
field: 9012011
9
12
11
`And Jehovah sendeth Jerubbaal, and Bedan, and Jephthah, and Samuel, and delivereth you out of the hand of your enemies round about, and ye dwell confidently.
field: 9012012
9
12
12
`And ye see that Nahash king of the Bene-Ammon hath come against you, and ye say to me, Nay, but a king doth reign over us; and Jehovah your God `is' your king!
field: 9012013
9
12
13
And, now, lo, the king whom ye have chosen -- whom ye have asked! and lo, Jehovah hath placed over you a king.
field: 9012014
9
12
14
`If ye fear Jehovah, and have served Him, and hearkened to His voice, then ye do not provoke the mouth of Jehovah, and ye have been -- both ye and the king who hath reigned over you -- after Jehovah your God.
field: 9012015
9
12
15
`And if ye do not hearken to the voice of Jehovah -- then ye have provoked the mouth of Jehovah, and the hand of Jehovah hath been against you, and against your fathers.
field: 9012016
9
12
16
`Also now, station yourselves and see this great thing which Jehovah is doing before your eyes;
field: 9012017
9
12
17
is it not wheat-harvest to-day? I call unto Jehovah, and He doth give voices and rain; and know ye and see that your evil is great which ye have done in the eyes of Jehovah, to ask for you a king.'
field: 9012018
9
12
18
And Samuel calleth unto Jehovah, and Jehovah giveth voices and rain, on that day, and all the people greatly fear Jehovah and Samuel;
field: 9012019
9
12
19
and all the people say unto Samuel, `Pray for thy servants unto Jehovah thy God, and we do not die, for we have added to all our sins evil to ask for us a king.'
field: 9012020
9
12
20
And Samuel saith unto the people, `Fear not; ye have done all this evil; only, turn not aside from after Jehovah -- and ye have served Jehovah with all your heart,
field: 9012021
9
12
21
and ye do not turn aside after the vain things which do not profit nor deliver, for they `are' vain,
field: 9012022

12
22
for Jehovah doth not leave His people, on account of His great name; for Jehovah hath been pleased to make you to Him for a people.
field: 9012023
9
12
23
`I, also, far be it from me to sin against Jehovah, by ceasing to pray for you, and I have directed you in the good and upright way;

only, fear ye Jehovah, and ye have served Him in truth with all your heart, for see that which He hath made great with you;

A son of a year `is' Saul in his reigning, yea, two years he hath reigned over Israel,
field: 9013002
9
13
2
and Saul chooseth for himself three thousand `men' out of Israel; and two thousand are with Saul in Michmash, and in the hill-country of Beth-El; and a thousand have been with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin; and the remnant of the people he hath sent each to his tents.
field: 9013003
9
13
3
And Jonathan smiteth the garrison of the Philistines which `is' in Geba, and the Philistines hear, and Saul hath blown with a trumpet through all the land, saying, `Let the Hebrews hear.'
field: 9013004
9
13
4
And all Israel have heard, saying, `Saul hath smitten the garrison of the Philistines,' and also, `Israel hath been abhorred by the Philistines;' and the people are called after Saul to Gilgal.
field: 9013005
9
13
5
And the Philistines have been gathered to fight with Israel; thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and a people as the sand which `is' on the sea-shore for multitude; and they come up and encamp in Michmash, east of Beth-Aven.
field: 9013006
9
13
6
And the men of Israel have seen that they are distressed, that the people hath been oppressed, and the people hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in high places, and in pits.
field: 9013007
9
13
7
And Hebrews have passed over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead; and Saul `is' yet in Gilgal, and all the people have trembled after him.
field: 9013008
9
13
8
And he waiteth seven days, according to the appointment with Samuel, and Samuel hath not come to Gilgal, and the people are scattered from off him.
field: 9013009
9
13
9
And Saul saith, `Bring nigh unto me the burnt-offering, and the peace-offerings;' and he causeth the burnt-offering to ascend.
field: 9013010
9
13
10
And it cometh to pass at his completing to cause the burnt-offering to ascend, that lo, Samuel hath come, and Saul goeth out to meet him, to bless him;
field: 9013011
9
13
11
and Samuel saith, `What hast thou done?' And Saul saith, `Because I saw that the people were scattered from off me, and thou hadst not come at the appointment of the days, and the Philistines are gathered to Michmash,
field: 9013012
9
13
12
and I say, Now do the Philistines come down unto me to Gilgal, and the face of Jehovah I have not appeased; and I force myself, and cause the burnt-offering to ascend.'
field: 9013013
9
13
13
And Samuel saith unto Saul, `Thou hast been foolish; thou hast not kept the command of Jehovah thy God, which He commanded thee, for now had Jehovah established thy kingdom over Israel unto the age;
field: 9013014
9
13
14
and, now, thy kingdom doth not stand, Jehovah hath sought for Himself a man according to His own heart, and Jehovah chargeth him for leader over His people, for thou hast not kept that which Jehovah commanded thee.'
field: 9013015
9
13
15
And Samuel riseth, and goeth up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin; and Saul inspecteth the people who are found with him, about six hundred men,
field: 9013016
9
13
16
and Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people who are found with them, are abiding in Gibeah of Benjamin, and the Philistines have encamped in Michmash.
field: 9013017
9
13
17
And the destroyer goeth out from the camp of the Philistines -- three detachments; the one detachment turneth unto the way of Ophrah, unto the land of Shual;
field: 9013018
9
13
18
and the one detachment turneth the way of Beth-Horon, and the one detachment turneth the way of the border which is looking on the valley of the Zeboim, toward the wilderness.
field: 9013019
9
13
19
And an artificer is not found in all the land of Israel, for the Philistines said, `Lest the Hebrews make sword or spear;'
field: 9013020
9
13
20
and all Israel go down to the Philistines, to sharpen each his ploughshare, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock;
field: 9013021
9
13
21
and there hath been the file for mattocks, and for coulters, and for three-pronged rakes, and for the axes, and to set up the goads.
field: 9013022
9
13
22
And it hath been, in the day of battle, that there hath not been found sword and spear in the hand of any of the people who `are' with Saul and with Jonathan -- and there is found to Saul and to Jonathan his son.
field: 9013023
9
13
23
And the station of the Philistines goeth out unto the passage of Michmash.
field: 9014001
9
14
1
And the day cometh that Jonathan son of Saul saith unto the young man bearing his weapons, `Come, and we pass over unto the station of the Philistines, which `is' on the other side of this;' and to his father he hath not declared `it'.
field: 9014002
9
14
2
And Saul is abiding at the extremity of Gibeah, under the pomegranate which `is' in Migron, and the people who `are' with him, about six hundred men,
field: 9014003
9
14
3
and Ahiah, son of Ahitub, brother of I-Chabod, son of Phinehas son of Eli priest of Jehovah in Shiloh, bearing an ephod; and the people knew not that Jonathan hath gone.
field: 9014004
9
14
4
And between the passages where Jonathan sought to pass over unto the station of the Philistines `is' the edge of a rock on the one side, and the edge of a rock on the other side, and the name of the one is Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.
field: 9014005
9
14
5
The one edge `is' fixed on the north over-against Michmash, and the one on the south over-against Gibeah.
field: 9014006
9
14
6
And Jonathan saith unto the young man bearing his weapons, `Come, and we pass over unto the station of these uncircumcised; it may be Jehovah doth work for us, for there is no restraint to Jehovah to save by many or by few.'
field: 9014007
9
14
7
And the bearer of his weapons saith to him, `Do all that `is' in thy heart; turn for thee; lo, I `am' with thee, as thine own heart.'
field: 9014008
9
14
8
And Jonathan saith, `Lo, we are passing over unto the men, and are revealed unto them;
field: 9014009
9
14
9
if thus they say unto us, `Stand still till we have come unto you,' then we have stood in our place, and do not go up unto them;
field: 9014010
9
14
10
and if thus they say, `Come up against us,' then we have gone up, for Jehovah hath given them into our hand, and this to us `is' the sign.
field: 9014011
9
14
11
And revealed are both of them unto the station of the Philistines, and the Philistines say, `Lo, Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hid themselves.'
field: 9014012
9
14
12
And the men of the station answer Jonathan, and the bearer of his weapons, and say, `Come up unto us, and we cause you to know something.' And Jonathan saith unto the bearer of his weapons, `Come up after me, for Jehovah hath given them into the hand of Israel.'
field: 9014013
9
14
13
And Jonathan goeth up on his hands, and on his feet, and the bearer of his weapons after him; and they fall before Jonathan, and the bearer of his weapons is putting to death after him.
field: 9014014
9
14
14
And the first smiting which Jonathan and the bearer of his weapons have smitten is of about twenty men, in about half a furrow of a yoke of a field,
field: 9014015
9
14
15
and there is a trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people, the station and the destroyers have trembled -- even they, and the earth shaketh, and it becometh a trembling of God.
field: 9014016
9
14
16
And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin see, and lo, the multitude hath melted away, and it goeth on, and is beaten down.
field: 9014017
9
14
17
And Saul saith to the people who `are' with him, `Inspect, I pray you, and see; who hath gone from us?' and they inspect, and lo, Jonathan and the bearer of his weapons are not.
field: 9014018
9
14
18
And Saul saith to Ahiah, `Bring nigh the ark of God;' for the ark of God hath been on that day with the sons of Israel.
field: 9014019
9
14
19
And it cometh to pass, while Saul spake unto the priest, that the noise which `is' in the camp of the Philistines goeth on, going on and becoming great, and Saul saith unto the priest, `Remove thy hand.'
field: 9014020
9
14
20
And Saul is called, and all the people who `are' with him, and they come in unto the battle, and, lo, the sword of each hath been against his neighbour -- a very great destruction.
field: 9014021
9
14
21
And the Hebrews `who' have been for the Philistines as heretofore, who had gone up with them into the camp, have turned round, even they, to be with Israel who `are' with Saul and Jonathan,
field: 9014022
9
14
22
and all the men of Israel, who are hiding themselves in the hill-country of Ephraim, have heard that the Philistines have fled, and they pursue -- even they -- after them in battle.
field: 9014023
9
14
23
And Jehovah saveth Israel on that day, and the battle hath passed over to Beth-Aven.
field: 9014024
9
14
24
And the men of Israel have been distressed on that day, and Saul adjureth the people, saying, `Cursed `is' the man who eateth food till the evening, and I have been avenged of mine enemies;' and none of the people hath tasted food.
field: 9014025
9
14
25
And all `they of' the land have come into a forest, and there is honey on the face of the field;
field: 9014026
9
14
26
and the people come in unto the forest, and lo, the honey dropped, and none is moving his hand unto his mouth, for the people feared the oath.
field: 9014027
9
14
27
And Jonathan hath not heard of his father's adjuring the people, and putteth forth the end of the rod, which `is' in his hand, and dippeth it in the honeycomb, and bringeth back his hand unto his mouth -- and his eyes see!
field: 9014028
9
14
28
And a man of the people answereth and saith, `Thy father certainly adjured the people, saying, Cursed `is' the man who eateth food to-day; and the people are weary.'
field: 9014029
9
14
29
And Jonathan saith, `My father hath troubled the land; see, I pray you, that mine eyes have become bright because I tasted a little of this honey.
field: 9014030
9
14
30
How much more if the people had well eaten to-day of the spoil of its enemies which it hath found, for now, the smiting hath not been great among the Philistines.'
field: 9014031
9
14
31
And they smite on that day among the Philistines from Michmash to Aijalon, and the people are very weary,
field: 9014032
9
14
32
and the people make unto the spoil, and take sheep, and oxen, and sons of the herd, and slaughter on the earth, and the people eat with the blood.
field: 9014033
9
14
33
And they declare to Saul, saying, `Lo, the people are sinning against Jehovah, to eat with the blood.' And he saith, `Ye have dealt treacherously, roll unto me to-day a great stone.'
field: 9014034
9
14
34
And Saul saith, `Be ye scattered among the people, and ye have said to them, Bring ye nigh unto me each his ox, and each his sheep; and ye have slain `them' in this place, and eaten, and ye do not sin against Jehovah to eat with the blood.' And all the people bring nigh each his ox, in his hand, that night, and slaughter `them' there.
field: 9014035
9
14
35
And Saul buildeth an alter to Jehovah; with it he hath begun to build altars to Jehovah.
field: 9014036
9
14
36
And Saul saith, `Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and we prey upon them till the light of the morning, and leave not a man of them.' And they say, `All that is good in thine eyes do.' And the priest saith, `Let us draw near hither unto God.'
field: 9014037
9
14
37
And Saul asketh of God, `Do I go down after the Philistines? dost Thou give them into the hand of Israel?' and He hath not answered him on that day.
field: 9014038
9
14
38
And Saul saith, `Draw ye nigh hither all, the chiefs of the people, and know and see in what this sin hath been to-day;
field: 9014039
9
14
39
for, Jehovah liveth, who is saving Israel: surely if it be in Jonathan my son, surely he doth certainly die;' and none is answering him out of all the people.
field: 9014040
9
14
40
And he saith unto all Israel, `Ye -- ye are on one side, and I and Jonathan my son are on another side;' and the people say unto Saul, `That which is good in thine eyes do.'
field: 9014041
9
14
41
And Saul saith unto Jehovah, God of Israel, `Give perfection;' and Jonathan and Saul are captured, and the people went out.
field: 9014042
9
14
42
And Saul saith, `Cast between me and Jonathan my son;' and Jonathan is captured.
field: 9014043
9
14
43
And Saul saith unto Jonathan, `Declare to me, what hast thou done?' and Jonathan declareth to him, and saith, `I certainly tasted with the end of the rod that `is' in my hand a little honey; lo, I die!'
field: 9014044
9
14
44
And Saul saith, `Thus doth God do, and thus doth He add, for thou dost certainly die, Jonathan.'
field: 9014045
9
14
45
And the people say unto Saul, `Doth Jonathan die who wrought this great salvation in Israel? -- a profanation! Jehovah liveth, if there falleth from the hair of his head to the earth, for with God he hath wrought this day;' and the people rescue Jonathan, and he hath not died.
field: 9014046
9
14
46
And Saul goeth up from after the Philistines, and the Philistines have gone to their place;
field: 9014047
9
14
47
and Saul captured the kingdom over Israel, and he fighteth round about against all his enemies, against Moab, and against the Bene-Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines, and whithersoever he turneth he doth vex `them'.
field: 9014048
9
14
48
And he maketh a force, and smiteth Amalek, and delivereth Israel out of the hand of its spoiler.
field: 9014049
9
14
49
And the sons of Saul are Jonathan, and Ishui, and Melchi-Shua; as to the name of his two daughters, the name of the first-born `is' Merab, and the name of the younger Michal;
field: 9014050
9
14
50
and the name of the wife of Saul `is' Ahinoam, daughter of Ahimaaz; and the name of the head of his host `is' Abner son of Ner, uncle of Saul;
field: 9014051
9
14
51
and Kish `is' father of Saul, and Ner father of Abner `is' son of Ahiel.
field: 9014052
9
14
52
And the war is severe against the Philistines all the days of Saul; when Saul hath seen any mighty man, and any son of valour, then he doth gather him unto himself.
field: 9015001
9
15
1
And Samuel saith unto Saul, `Me did Jehovah send to anoint thee for king over His people, over Israel; and now, hearken to the voice of the words of Jehovah:
field: 9015002
9
15
2
`Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, I have looked after that which Amalek did to Israel, that which he laid for him in the way in his going up out of Egypt.
field: 9015003
9
15
3
Now, go, and thou hast smitten Amalek, and devoted all that it hath, and thou hast no pity on it, and hast put to death from man unto woman, from infant unto suckling, from ox unto sheep, from camel unto ass.'
field: 9015004
9
15
4
And Saul summoneth the people, and inspecteth them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand `are' men of Judah.
field: 9015005
9
15
5
And Saul cometh in unto a city of Amalek, and layeth wait in a valley;
field: 9015006
9
15
6
and Saul saith unto the Kenite, `Go, turn aside, go down from the midst of Amalek, lest I consume thee with it, and thou didst kindness with all the sons of Israel, in their going up out of Egypt;' and the Kenite turneth aside from the midst of Amalek.
field: 9015007
9
15
7
And Saul smiteth Amalek from Havilah -- thy going in to Shur, which `is' on the front of Egypt,
field: 9015008
9
15
8
and he catcheth Agag king of Amalek alive, and all the people he hath devoted by the mouth of the sword;
field: 9015009
9
15
9
and Saul hath pity -- also the people -- on Agag, and on the best of the flock, and of the herd, and of the seconds, and on the lambs, and on all that `is' good, and have not been willing to devote them; and all the work, despised and wasted -- it they devoted.
field: 9015010
9
15
10
And the word of Jehovah is unto Samuel, saying,
field: 9015011
9
15
11
`I have repented that I caused Saul to reign for king, for he hath turned back from after Me, and My words he hath not performed;' and it is displeasing to Samuel, and he crieth unto Jehovah all the night.
field: 9015012

15
12
And Samuel riseth early to meet Saul in the morning, and it is declared to Samuel, saying, `Saul hath come in to Carmel, and lo, he is setting up to himself a monument, and goeth round, and passeth over, and goeth down to Gilgal.'
field: 9015013
9
15
13
And Samuel cometh in unto Saul, and Saul saith to him, `Blessed `art' thou of Jehovah; I have performed the word of Jehovah.'
field: 9015014
9
15
14
And Samuel saith, `And what `is' the noise of this flock in mine ears -- and the noise of the herd which I am hearing?'
field: 9015015
9
15
15
And Saul saith, `From Amalek they have brought them, because the people had pity on the best of the flock, and of the herd, in order to sacrifice to Jehovah thy God, and the remnant we have devoted.'
field: 9015016
9
15
16
And Samuel saith unto Saul, `Desist, and I declare to thee that which Jehovah hath spoken unto me to-night;' and he saith to him, `Speak.'
field: 9015017
9
15
17
And Samuel saith, `Art not thou, if thou `art' little in thine own eyes, head of the tribes of Israel? and Jehovah doth anoint thee for king over Israel,
field: 9015018
9
15
18
and Jehovah sendeth thee in the way, and saith, Go, and thou hast devoted the sinners, the Amalekite, and fought against them till they are consumed;
field: 9015019
9
15
19
and why hast thou not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah -- and dost fly unto the spoil, and dost do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah?'
field: 9015020
9
15
20
And Saul saith unto Samuel, `Because -- I have hearkened to the voice of Jehovah, and I go in the way which Jehovah hath sent me, and bring in Agag king of Amalek, and Amalek I have devoted;
field: 9015021
9
15
21
and the people taketh of the spoil of the flock and herd, the first part of the devoted thing, for sacrifice to Jehovah thy God in Gilgal.'
field: 9015022
9
15
22
And Samuel saith, `Hath Jehovah had delight in burnt-offerings and sacrifices as `in' hearkening to the voice of Jehovah? lo, hearkening than sacrifice is better; to give attention than fat of rams;
field: 9015023
9
15
23
for a sin of divination `is' rebellion, and iniquity and teraphim `is' stubbornness; because thou hast rejected the word of Jehovah, He also doth reject thee from `being' king.'
field: 9015024
9
15
24
And Saul saith unto Samuel, `I have sinned, for I passed over the command of Jehovah, and thy words; because I have feared the people, I also hearken to their voice;
field: 9015025
9
15
25
and now, bear, I pray thee, with my sin, and turn back with me, and I bow myself to Jehovah.'
field: 9015026
9
15
26
And Samuel saith unto Saul, `I do not turn back with thee; for thou hast rejected the word of Jehovah, and Jehovah doth reject thee from being king over Israel.'
field: 9015027
9
15
27
And Samuel turneth round to go, and he layeth hold on the skirt of his upper robe -- and it is rent!
field: 9015028
9
15
28
And Samuel saith unto him, `Jehovah hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee to-day, and given it to thy neighbour who is better than thou;
field: 9015029
9
15
29
and also, the Pre-eminence of Israel doth not lie nor repent, for He `is' not a man to be penitent.'
field: 9015030
9
15
30
And he saith, `I have sinned; now, honour me, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn back with me; and I have bowed myself to Jehovah thy God.'
field: 9015031
9
15
31
And Samuel turneth back after Saul, and Saul boweth himself to Jehovah;
field: 9015032
9
15
32
and Samuel saith, `Bring ye nigh unto me Agag king of Amalek,' and Agag cometh unto him daintily, and Agag saith, `Surely the bitterness of death hath turned aside.'
field: 9015033
9
15
33
And Samuel saith, `As thy sword bereaved women -- so is thy mother bereaved above women;' and Samuel heweth Agag in pieces before Jehovah in Gilgal.
field: 9015034
9
15
34
And Samuel goeth to Ramath, and Saul hath gone unto his house -- to Gibeah of Saul.
field: 9015035
9
15
35
And Samuel hath not added to see Saul till the day of his death, for Samuel mourned for Saul, and Jehovah repented that He had caused Saul to reign over Israel.
field: 9016001
9
16
1
And Jehovah saith unto Samuel, `Till when art thou mourning for Saul, and I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thy horn with oil, and go, I send thee unto Jesse the Beth-Lehemite, for I have seen among his sons for Myself a king.
field: 9016002
9
16
2
And Samuel saith, `How do I go? when Saul hath heard, then he hath slain me.' And Jehovah saith, `A heifer of the herd thou dost take in thy hand, and hast said, To sacrifice to Jehovah I have come;
field: 9016003
9
16
3
and thou hast called for Jesse in the sacrifice, and I cause thee to know that which thou dost do, and thou hast anointed to Me him of whom I speak unto thee.'
field: 9016004
9
16
4
And Samuel doth that which Jehovah hath spoken, and cometh in to Beth-Lehem, and the elders of the city tremble to meet him, and `one' saith, `Is thy coming peace?'
field: 9016005
9
16
5
and he saith, `Peace; to sacrifice to Jehovah I have come, sanctify yourselves, and ye have come in with me to the sacrifice;' and he sanctifieth Jesse and his sons, and calleth them to the sacrifice.
field: 9016006
9

6
And it cometh to pass, in their coming in, that he seeth Eliab, and saith, `Surely, before Jehovah `is' His anointed.'
field: 9016007
9

And Jehovah saith unto Samuel, `Look not unto his appearance, and unto the height of his stature, for I have rejected him; for `it is' not as man seeth -- for man looketh at the eyes, and Jehovah looketh at the heart.'
field: 9016008
9
16

And Jesse calleth unto Abinadab, and causeth him to pass by before Samuel; and he saith, `Also on this Jehovah hath not fixed.'

16
9
And Jesse causeth Shammah to pass by, and he saith, `Also on this Jehovah hath not fixed.'
field: 9016010

10
And Jesse causeth seven of his sons to pass by before Samuel, and Samuel saith to Jesse, `Jehovah hath not fixed on these.'
field: 9016011
9
16
11
And Samuel saith unto Jesse, `Are the young men finished?' and he saith, `Yet hath been left the youngest; and lo, he delighteth himself among the flock;' and Samuel saith unto Jesse, `Send and take him, for we do not turn round till his coming in hither.'
field: 9016012
9
16
12
And he sendeth, and bringeth him in, and he `is' ruddy, with beauty of eyes, and of good appearance; and Jehovah saith, `Rise, anoint him, for this `is' he.'
field: 9016013
9
16
13
And Samuel taketh the horn of oil, and anointeth him in the midst of his brethren, and prosper over David doth the Spirit of Jehovah from that day and onwards; and Samuel riseth and goeth to Ramath.
field: 9016014
9
16
14
And the Spirit of Jehovah turned aside from Saul, and a spirit of sadness from Jehovah terrified him;
field: 9016015
9
16
15
and the servants of Saul say unto him, `Lo, we pray thee, a spirit of sadness `from' God is terrifying thee;

16
16
let our lord command, we pray thee, thy servants before thee, they seek a skilful man, playing on a harp, and it hath come to pass, in the spirit of sadness `from' God being upon thee, that he hath played with his hand, and `it is' well with thee.'
field: 9016017

17
And Saul saith unto his servants, `Provide, I pray you, for me a man playing well -- then ye have brought `him' in unto me.'
field: 9016018
9
16
18
And one of the servants answereth and saith, `Lo, I have seen a son of Jesse the Beth-Lehemite, skilful in playing, and a mighty virtuous man, and a man of battle, and intelligent in word, and a man of form, and Jehovah `is' with him.'
field: 9016019

19
And Saul sendeth messengers unto Jesse, and saith, `Send unto me David thy son, who `is' with the flock.'
field: 9016020
9
16
20
And Jesse taketh an ass, `with' bread, and a bottle of wine, and one kid of the goats, and sendeth by the hand of David his son unto Saul.
field: 9016021
9
16
21
And David cometh in unto Saul, and standeth before him, and he loveth him greatly; and he is a bearer of his weapons.

And Saul sendeth unto Jesse, saying, `Let David, I pray thee, stand before me, for he hath found grace in mine eyes.'
field: 9016023
9
16
23
And it hath come to pass, in the spirit of `sadness from' God being on Saul, that David hath taken the harp, and played with his hand, and Saul hath refreshment and gladness, and the spirit of sadness hath turned aside from off him.

And the Philistines gather their camps to battle, and are gathered to Shochoh, which `is' to Judah, and encamp between Shochoh and Azekah, in Ephes-Dammim;
field: 9017002
9
17
2
and Saul and the men of Israel have been gathered, and encamp by the valley of Elah, and set the battle in array to meet the Philistines.
field: 9017003

And the Philistines are standing on the mountain on this side, and the Israelites are standing on the mountain on that side, and the valley `is' between them.
field: 9017004
9
17
4
And there goeth out a man of the duellists from the camps of the Philistines, Goliath `is' his name, from Gath; his height `is' six cubits and a span,
field: 9017005
9
17
5
and a helmet of brass `is' on his head, and `with' a scaled coat of mail he `is' clothed, and the weight of the coat of mail `is' five thousand shekels of brass,

and a frontlet of brass `is' on his feet, and a javelin of brass between his shoulders,

and the wood of his spear `is' like a beam of weavers', and the flame of his spear `is' six hundred shekels of iron, and the bearer of the buckler is going before him.
field: 9017008
9
17
8
And he standeth and calleth unto the ranks of Israel, and saith to them, `Why are ye come out to set in array the battle? `am' not I the Philistine, and ye servants to Saul? choose for you a man, and let him come down unto me;
field: 9017009
9
17
9
if he be able to fight with me, and have smitten me, then we have been to you for servants; and if I am able for him, and have smitten him, then ye have been to us for servants, and have served us.'
field: 9017010
9
17
10
And the Philistine saith, `I have reproached the ranks of Israel this day; give to me a man, and we fight together.'
field: 9017011
9
17
11
And Saul heareth -- and all Israel -- these words of the Philistine, and they are broken down and greatly afraid.

12
And David `is' son of this Ephrathite of Beth-Lehem-Judah, whose name `is' Jesse, and he hath eight sons, and the man in the days of Saul hath become aged among men;
field: 9017013
9
17

and the three eldest sons of Jesse go, they have gone after Saul to battle; and the name of his three sons who have gone into battle `are' Eliab the first-born, and his second Abinadab, and the third Shammah.
field: 9017014

17
14
And David is the youngest, and the three eldest have gone after Saul,

and David is going and returning from Saul, to feed the flock of his father at Beth-Lehem.

17
16
And the Philistine draweth nigh, morning and evening, and stationeth himself forty days.
field: 9017017
9
17
17
And Jesse saith to David his son, `Take, I pray thee, to thy brethren, an ephah of this roasted `corn', and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brethren;

17
18
and these ten cuttings of the cheese thou dost take in to the head of the thousand, and thy brethren thou dost inspect for welfare, and their pledge dost receive.'

19
And Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel `are' in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.
field: 9017020
9
17
20
And David riseth early in the morning, and leaveth the flock to a keeper, and lifteth up, and goeth, as Jesse commanded him, and he cometh in to the path, and to the force which is going out unto the rank, and they have shouted for battle;
field: 9017021
9
17
21
and Israel and the Philistines set in array rank to meet rank.
field: 9017022
9
17
22
And David letteth down the goods from off him on the hand of a keeper of the goods, and runneth into the rank, and cometh and asketh of his brethren of welfare.
field: 9017023
9
17
23
And he is speaking with them, and lo, a man of the duellists is coming up, Goliath the Philistine `is' his name, of Gath, out of the ranks of the Philistines, and he speaketh according to those words, and David heareth;
field: 9017024
9
17
24
and all the men of Israel when they see the man flee from his presence, and are greatly afraid.
field: 9017025
9
17
25
And the men of Israel say, `Have ye seen this man who is coming up? for, to reproach Israel he is coming up, and it hath been -- the man who smiteth him, the king doth enrich him with great riches, and his daughter he doth give to him, and his father's house doth make free in Israel.'
field: 9017026
9
17
26
And David speaketh unto the men who are standing by him, saying, `What is done to the man who smiteth this Philistine, and hath turned aside reproach from Israel? for who `is' this uncircumcised Philistine that he hath reproached the ranks of the living God?'
field: 9017027
9
17
27
And the people speak to him according to this word, saying, `Thus it is done to the man who smiteth him.'
field: 9017028
9
17
28
And Eliab, his eldest brother, heareth when he speaketh unto the men, and the anger of Eliab burneth against David, and he saith, `Why `is' this -- thou hast come down! and to whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I have known thy pride, and the evil of thy heart -- for, to see the battle thou hast come down.'
field: 9017029
9
17
29
And David saith, `What have I done now? is it not a word?'
field: 9017030
9
17
30
And he turneth round from him unto another, and saith according to this word, and the people return him word as the first word.
field: 9017031
9
17
31
And the words which David hath spoken are heard, and they declare before Saul, and he receiveth him;
field: 9017032
9
17
32
and David saith unto Saul, `Let no man's heart fall because of him, thy servant doth go, and hath fought with this Philistine.'
field: 9017033
9
17
33
And Saul saith unto David, `Thou art not able to go unto this Philistine, to fight with him, for a youth thou `art', and he a man of war from his youth.'
field: 9017034
9
17
34
And David saith unto Saul, `A shepherd hath thy servant been to his father among the sheep, and the lion hath come -- and the bear -- and hath taken away a sheep out of the drove,
field: 9017035
9
17
35
and I have gone out after him, and smitten him, and delivered out of his mouth, and he riseth against me, and I have taken hold on his beard, and smitten him, and put him to death.
field: 9017036
9
17
36
Both the lion and the bear hath thy servant smitten, and this uncircumcised Philistine hath been as one of them, for he hath reproached the ranks of the living God.'
field: 9017037
9
17
37
And David saith, `Jehovah, who delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, He doth deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.' And Saul saith unto David, `Go, and Jehovah is with thee.'
field: 9017038
9
17
38
And Saul clotheth David with his long robe, and hath put a helmet of brass on his head, and doth clothe him with a coat of mail.
field: 9017039
9
17
39
And David girded his sword above his long robe, and beginneth to go, for he hath not tried `it'; and David saith unto Saul, `I am not able to go with these, for I had not tried;' and David turneth them aside from off him.
field: 9017040
9
17
40
And he taketh his staff in his hand, and chooseth for him five smooth stones from the brook, and putteth them in the shepherds' habiliments that he hath, even in the scrip, and his sling `is' in his hand, and he draweth nigh unto the Philistine.
field: 9017041
9
17
41
And the Philistine goeth on, going and drawing near unto David, and the man bearing the buckler `is' before him,
field: 9017042
9
17
42
and the Philistine looketh attentively, and seeth David, and despiseth him, for he was a youth, and ruddy, with a fair appearance.
field: 9017043
9
17
43
And the Philistine saith unto David, `Am I a dog that thou art coming unto me with staves?' and the Philistine revileth David by his gods,
field: 9017044
9
17
44
and the Philistine saith unto David, `Come unto me, and I give thy flesh to the fowl of the heavens, and to the beast of the field.'
field: 9017045
9
17
45
And David saith unto the Philistine, `Thou art coming unto me with sword, and with spear, and with buckler, and I am coming unto thee in the name of Jehovah of Hosts, God of the ranks of Israel, which thou hast reproached.
field: 9017046
9
17
46
This day doth Jehovah shut thee up into my hand -- and I have smitten thee, and turned aside thy head from off thee, and given the carcase of the camp of the Philistines this day to the fowl of the heavens, and to the beast of the earth, and all the earth do know that God is for Israel.
field: 9017047
9
17
47
and all this assembly do know that not by sword and by spear doth Jehovah save, that the battle `is' Jehovah's, and He hath given you into our hand.'
field: 9017048
9
17
48
And it hath come to pass, that the Philistine hath risen, and goeth, and draweth near to meet David, and David hasteth and runneth to the rank to meet the Philistine,
field: 9017049
9
17
49
and David putteth forth his hand unto the vessel, and taketh thence a stone, and slingeth, and smiteth the Philistine on his forehead, and the stone sinketh into his forehead, and he falleth on his face to the earth.
field: 9017050
9
17
50
And David is stronger than the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smiteth the Philistine, and putteth him to death, and there is no sword in the hand of David,
field: 9017051
9
17
51
and David runneth and standeth over the Philistine, and taketh his sword, and draweth it out of its sheath, and putteth him to death, and cutteth off with it his head; and the Philistines see that their hero `is' dead, and flee.
field: 9017052
9
17
52
And the men of Israel rise -- also Judah -- and shout, and pursue the Philistines till thou enter the valley, and unto the gates of Ekron, and the wounded of the Philistines fall in the way of Shaaraim, even unto Gath, and unto Ekron,
field: 9017053
9
17
53
and the sons of Israel turn back from burning after the Philistines, and spoil their camps.
field: 9017054
9
17
54
And David taketh the head of the Philistine, and bringeth it in to Jerusalem, and his weapons he hath put in his own tent.
field: 9017055
9
17
55
And when Saul seeth David going out to meet the Philistine, he hath said unto Abner, head of the host, `Whose son `is' this -- the youth, Abner?' and Abner saith, `Thy soul liveth, O king, I have not known.'
field: 9017056
9
17
56
And the king saith, `Ask thou whose son this `is' -- the young man.'
field: 9017057
9
17
57
And when David turneth back from smiting the Philistine, then Abner taketh him and bringeth him in before Saul, and the head of the Philistine in his hand;
field: 9017058
9
17
58
and Saul saith unto him, `Whose son `art' thou, O youth?' and David saith, `Son of thy servant Jesse, the Beth-Lehemite.'
field: 9018001

1
And it cometh to pass, when he finisheth to speak unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan hath been bound to the soul of David, and Jonathan loveth him as his own soul.
field: 9018002
9
18
2
And Saul taketh him on that day, and hath not permitted him to turn back to the house of his father.
field: 9018003
9
18
3
And Jonathan maketh -- also David -- a covenant, because he loveth him as his own soul,
field: 9018004
9
18
4
and Jonathan strippeth himself of the upper robe which `is' upon him, and giveth it to David, and his long robe, even unto his sword, and unto his bow, and unto his girdle.
field: 9018005
9
18
5
And David goeth out whithersoever Saul doth send him; he acted wisely, and Saul setteth him over the men of war, and it is good in the eyes of all the people, and also in the eyes of the servants of Saul.
field: 9018006
9
18
6
And it cometh to pass, in their coming in, in David's returning from smiting the Philistine, that the women come out from all the cities of Israel to sing -- also the dancers -- to meet Saul the king, with tabrets, with joy, and with three-stringed instruments;
field: 9018007
9
18
7
and the women answer -- those playing, and say, `Saul hath smitten among his thousands, And David among his myriads.'
field: 9018008
9
18
8
And it is displeasing to Saul exceedingly, and this thing is evil in his eyes, and he saith, `They have given to David myriads, and to me they have given the thousands, and more to him `is' only the kingdom;'
field: 9018009
9
18
9
and Saul is eyeing David from that day and thenceforth.
field: 9018010
9
18
10
And it cometh to pass, on the morrow, that the spirit of sadness `from' God prospereth over Saul, and he prophesieth in the midst of the house, and David is playing with his hand, as day by day, and the javelin `is' in the hand of Saul,
field: 9018011
9
18
11
and Saul casteth the javelin, and saith, `I smite through David, even through the wall;' and David turneth round out of his presence twice.
field: 9018012
9
18
12
And Saul is afraid of the presence of David, for Jehovah hath been with him, and from Saul He hath turned aside;
field: 9018013
9
18
13
and Saul turneth him aside from him, and appointeth him to himself head of a thousand, and he goeth out an cometh in, before the people.
field: 9018014
9
18
14
And David is in all his ways acting wisely, and Jehovah `is' with him,
field: 9018015
9
18
15
and Saul seeth that he is acting very wisely, and is afraid of him,
field: 9018016
9
18
16
and all Israel and Judah love David when he is going out and coming in before them.
field: 9018017
9
18
17
And Saul saith unto David, `Lo, my elder daughter Merab -- her I give to thee for a wife; only, be to me for a son of valour, and fight the battles of Jehovah;' and Saul said, `Let not my hand be on him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.'

And David saith unto Saul, `Who `am' I? and what my life -- the family of my father in Israel -- that I am son-in-law to the king?'
field: 9018019
9
18
19
And it cometh to pass, at the time of the giving of Merab daughter of Saul to David, that she hath been given to Adriel the Meholathite for a wife.
field: 9018020
9
18
20
And Michal daughter of Saul loveth David, and they declare to Saul, and the thing is right in his eyes,
field: 9018021
9
18
21
and Saul saith, `I give her to him, and she is to him for a snare, and the hand of the Philistines is on him;' and Saul saith unto David, `By the second -- thou dost become my son-in-law to-day.'
field: 9018022
9
18
22
And Saul commandeth his servants, `Speak unto David gently, saying, Lo, the king hath delighted in thee, and all his servants have loved thee, and now, be son-in-law to the king.'
field: 9018023
9
18
23
And the servants of Saul speak in the ears of David these words, and David saith, `Is it a light thing in your eyes to be son-in-law to the king -- and I a poor man, and lightly esteemed?'
field: 9018024
9
18
24
And the servants of Saul declare to him, saying, `According to these words hath David spoken.'
field: 9018025
9
18
25
And Saul saith, `Thus do ye say to David, There is no delight to the king in dowry, but in a hundred foreskins of the Philistines -- to be avenged on the enemies of the king;' and Saul thought to cause David to fall by the hand of the Philistines.
field: 9018026
9
18
26
And his servants declare to David these words, and the thing is right in the eyes of David, to be son-in-law to the king; and the days have not been full,
field: 9018027
9
18
27
and David riseth and goeth, he and his men, and smiteth among the Philistines two hundred men, and David bringeth in their foreskins, and they set them before the king, to be son-in-law to the king; and Saul giveth to him Michal his daughter for a wife.
field: 9018028
9
18
28
And Saul seeth and knoweth that Jehovah `is' with David, and Michal daughter of Saul hath loved him,
field: 9018029
9
18
29
and Saul addeth to be afraid of the presence of David yet; and Saul is an enemy with David all the days.
field: 9018030
9
18
30
And the princes of the Philistines come out, and it cometh to pass from the time of their coming out, David hath acted more wisely than any of the servants of Saul, and his name is very precious.
field: 9019001
9
19
1
And Saul speaketh unto Jonathan his son, and unto all his servants, to put David to death,
field: 9019002
9
19
2
and Jonathan son of Saul delighted exceedingly in David, and Jonathan declareth to David, saying, `Saul my father is seeking to put thee to death, and, now, take heed, I pray thee, in the morning, and thou hast abode in a secret place, and been hidden,
field: 9019003
9
19
3
and I -- I go out, and have stood by the side of my father in the field where thou `art', and I speak of thee unto my father, and have seen what `is coming', and have declared to thee.'
field: 9019004
9
19
4
And Jonathan speaketh good of David unto Saul his father, and saith unto him, `Let not the king sin against his servant, against David, because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works for thee `are' very good;
field: 9019005
9
19
5
yea, he putteth his life in his hand, and smiteth the Philistine, and Jehovah worketh a great salvation for all Israel; thou hast seen, and dost rejoice, and why dost thou sin against innocent blood, to put David to death for nought?'
field: 9019006
9
19
6
And Saul hearkeneth to the voice of Jonathan, and Saul sweareth, `Jehovah liveth -- he doth not die.'
field: 9019007
9
19
7
And Jonathan calleth for David, and Jonathan declareth to him all these words, and Jonathan bringeth in David unto Saul, and he is before him as heretofore.
field: 9019008
9
19
8
And there addeth to be war, and David goeth out and fighteth against the Philistines, and smiteth among them -- a great smiting, and they flee from his face.
field: 9019009
9
19
9
And a spirit of sadness `from' Jehovah is unto Saul, and he is sitting in his house, and his javelin in his hand, and David is playing with the hand,
field: 9019010
9
19
10
and Saul seeketh to smite with the javelin through David, and through the wall, and he freeth himself from the presence of Saul, and he smiteth the javelin through the wall; and David hath fled and escapeth during that night.
field: 9019011
9
19
11
And Saul sendeth messengers unto the house of David to watch him, and to put him to death in the morning; and Michal his wife declareth to David, saying, `If thou art not delivering thy life to-night -- tomorrow thou art put to death.'
field: 9019012
9
19
12
And Michal causeth David to go down through the window, and he goeth on, and fleeth, and escapeth;
field: 9019013
9
19
13
and Michal taketh the teraphim, and layeth on the bed, and the mattress of goats' `hair' she hath put `for' his pillows, and covereth with a garment.
field: 9019014
9
19
14
And Saul sendeth messengers to take David, and she saith, `He `is' sick.'
field: 9019015
9
19
15
And Saul sendeth the messengers to see David, saying, `Bring him up in the bed unto me,' -- to put him to death.
field: 9019016
9
19
16
And the messengers come in, and lo, the teraphim `are' on the bed, and the mattress of goats' `hair', `for' his pillows.
field: 9019017
9
19
17
And Saul saith unto Michal, `Why thus hast thou deceived me -- that thou dost send away mine enemy, and he is escaped?' and Michal saith unto Saul, `He said unto me, Send me away: why do I put thee to death?'
field: 9019018
9
19
18
And David hath fled, and is escaped, and cometh in unto Samuel to Ramath, and declareth to him all that Saul hath done to him, and he goeth, he and Samuel, and they dwell in Naioth.
field: 9019019
9
19
19
And it is declared to Saul, saying, `Lo, David `is' in Naioth in Ramah.'
field: 9019020
9
19
20
And Saul sendeth messengers to take David, and they see the assembly of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing, set over them, and the Spirit of God is on Saul's messengers, and they prophesy -- they also.
field: 9019021
9
19
21
And they declare `it' to Saul, and he sendeth other messengers, and they prophesy -- they also; and Saul addeth and sendeth messengers a third time, and they prophesy -- they also.
field: 9019022
9
19
22
And he goeth -- he also -- to Ramath, and cometh in unto the great well which `is' in Sechu, and asketh, and saith, `Where `are' Samuel and David?' and `one' saith, `Lo, in Naioth in Ramah.'
field: 9019023
9
19
23
And he goeth thither -- unto Naioth in Ramah, and the Spirit of God is upon him -- him also; and he goeth, going on, and he prophesyeth till his coming in to Naioth in Ramah,
field: 9019024
9
19
24
and he strippeth off -- he also -- his garments, and prophesieth -- he also -- before Samuel, and falleth down naked all that day and all the night; therefore they say, `Is Saul also among the prophets?'
field: 9020001
9
20
1
And David fleeth from Naioth in Ramah, and cometh, and saith before Jonathan, `What have I done? what `is' mine iniquity? and what my sin before thy father, that he is seeking my life?'
field: 9020002
9
20
2
And he saith to him, `Far be it! thou dost not die; lo, my father doth not do anything great or small and doth not uncover mine ear; and wherefore doth my father hide from me this thing? this `thing' is not.'
field: 9020003
9
20
3
And David sweareth again, and saith, `Thy father hath certainly known that I have found grace in thine eyes, and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved; and yet, Jehovah liveth, and thy soul liveth, but -- as a step between me and death.'
field: 9020004
9
20
4
And Jonathan saith to David, `What doth thy soul say? -- and I do it for thee.'
field: 9020005
9
20
5
And David saith unto Jonathan, `Lo, the new moon `is' to-morrow; and I do certainly sit with the king to eat; and thou hast sent me away, and I have been hidden in a field till the third evening;
field: 9020006
9
20
6
if thy father at all look after me, and thou hast said, David asked earnestly of me to run to Beth-Lehem his city, for a sacrifice of the days `is' there for all the family.
field: 9020007
9
20
7
If thus he say: Good; peace `is' for thy servant; and if it be very displeasing to him -- know that the evil hath been determined by him;
field: 9020008
9
20
8
and thou hast done kindness, to thy servant, for into a covenant of Jehovah thou hast brought thy servant with thee; -- and if there is in me iniquity, put thou me to death; and unto thy father, why is this -- thou dost bring me in?'
field: 9020009
9
20
9
And Jonathan saith, `Far be it from thee! for I certainly do not know that the evil hath been determined by my father to come upon thee, and I do not declare it to thee.'
field: 9020010
9
20
10
And David saith unto Jonathan, `Who doth declare to me? or what `if' thy father doth answer thee sharply?'
field: 9020011
9
20
11
And Jonathan saith unto David, `Come, and we go out into the field;' and they go out both of them into the field.
field: 9020012
9
20
12
And Jonathan saith unto David, `Jehovah, God of Israel -- when I search my father, about `this' time to-morrow `or' the third `day', and lo, good `is' towards David, and I do not then send unto thee, and have uncovered thine ear --
field: 9020013
9
20
13
thus doth Jehovah do to Jonathan, and thus doth He add; when the evil concerning thee is good to my father, then I have uncovered thine ear, and sent thee away, and thou hast gone in peace, and Jehovah is with thee, as he was with my father;
field: 9020014
9
20
14
and not only while I am alive dost thou do with me the kindness of Jehovah, and I die not,
field: 9020015
9
20
15
but thou dost not cut off thy kindness from my house unto the age, nor in Jehovah's cutting off the enemies of David, each one from off the face of the ground.'
field: 9020016
9
20
16
And Jonathan covenanteth with the house of David, and Jehovah hath sought `it' from the hand of the enemies of David;
field: 9020017
9
20
17
and Jonathan addeth to cause David to swear, because he loveth him, for with the love of his own soul he hath loved him.
field: 9020018
9
20
18
And Jonathan saith to him, `To-morrow `is' new moon, and thou hast been looked after, for thy seat is looked after;
field: 9020019
9
20
19
and on the third day thou dost certainly come down, and hast come in unto the place where thou wast hidden in the day of the work, and hast remained near the stone Ezel.
field: 9020020
9
20
20
`And I shoot three of the arrows at the side, sending out for myself at a mark;
field: 9020021
9
20
21
and lo, I send the youth: Go, find the arrows. If I at all say to the youth, Lo, the arrows `are' on this side of thee -- take them, -- then come thou, for peace `is' for thee, and there is nothing; Jehovah liveth.
field: 9020022
9
20
22
And if thus I say to the young man, Lo, the arrows `are' beyond thee, -- go, for Jehovah hath sent thee away;
field: 9020023
9
20
23
as to the thing which we have spoken, I and thou, lo, Jehovah `is' between me and thee -- unto the age.'
field: 9020024
9
20
24
And David is hidden in the field, and it is the new moon, and the king sitteth down by the food to eat,
field: 9020025
9
20
25
and the king sitteth on his seat, as time by time, on a seat by the wall, and Jonathan riseth, and Abner sitteth at the side of Saul, and David's place is looked after.
field: 9020026
9
20
26
And Saul hath not spoken anything on that day, for he said, `It `is' an accident; he is not clean -- surely not clean.'
field: 9020027
9
20
27
And it cometh to pass on the second morrow of the new moon, that David's place is looked after, and Saul saith unto Jonathan his son, `Wherefore hath the son of Jesse not come in, either yesterday or to-day, unto the food?'
field: 9020028
9
20
28
And Jonathan answereth Saul, `David hath been earnestly asked of me unto Beth-Lehem,
field: 9020029
9
20
29
and he saith, Send me away, I pray thee, for a family sacrifice we have in the city, and my brother himself hath given command to me, and now, if I have found grace in thine eyes, let me go away, I pray thee, and see my brethren; therefore he hath not come unto the table of the king.'
field: 9020030
9
20
30
And the anger of Saul burneth against Jonathan, and he saith to him, `Son of a perverse rebellious woman! have I not known that thou art fixing on the son of Jesse to thy shame, and to the shame of the nakedness of thy mother?
field: 9020031
9
20
31
for all the days that the son of Jesse liveth on the ground thou art not established, thou and thy kingdom; and now, send and bring him unto me, for he `is' a son of death.'
field: 9020032
9
20
32
And Jonathan answereth Saul his father, and saith unto him, `Why is he put to death? what hath he done?'
field: 9020033
9
20
33
And Saul casteth the javelin at him to smite him, and Jonathan knoweth that it hath been determined by his father to put David to death.
field: 9020034
9
20
34
And Jonathan riseth from the table in the heat of anger, and hath not eaten food on the second day of the new moon, for he hath been grieved for David, for his father put him to shame.
field: 9020035
9
20
35
And it cometh to pass in the morning, that Jonathan goeth out into the field for the appointment with David, and a little youth `is' with him.
field: 9020036
9
20
36
And he saith to his youth, `Run, find, I pray thee, the arrows which I am shooting;' the youth is running, and he hath shot the arrow, causing `it' to pass over him.
field: 9020037
9
20
37
And the youth cometh unto the place of the arrow which Jonathan hath shot, and Jonathan calleth after the youth, and saith, `Is not the arrow beyond thee?'
field: 9020038
9
20
38
and Jonathan calleth after the youth, `Speed, haste, stand not;' and Jonathan's youth gathereth the arrows, and cometh unto his lord.
field: 9020039
9
20
39
And the youth hath not known anything, only Jonathan and David knew the word.
field: 9020040
9
20
40
And Jonathan giveth his weapons unto the youth whom he hath, and saith to him, `Go, carry into the city.'
field: 9020041
9
20
41
The youth hath gone, and David hath risen from Ezel, at the south, and falleth on his face to the earth, and boweth himself three times, and they kiss one another, and they weep one with another, till David exerted himself;
field: 9020042
9
20
42
and Jonathan saith to David, `Go in peace, in that we have sworn -- we two -- in the name of Jehovah, saying, Jehovah is between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed -- unto the age;' and he riseth and goeth; and Jonathan hath gone in to the city.
field: 9021001
9
21
1
And David cometh in to Nob, unto Ahimelech the priest, and Ahimelech trembleth at meeting David, and saith to him, `Wherefore `art' thou thyself alone, and no man with thee?'
field: 9021002
9
21
2
And David saith to Ahimelech the priest, `The king hath commanded me a matter, and he saith unto me, Let no man know anything of the matter about which I am sending thee, and which I have commanded thee; and the young men I have caused to know at such and such a place;
field: 9021003
9
21
3
and now, what is there under thy hand? five loaves give into my hand, or that which is found.'
field: 9021004
9
21
4
And the priest answereth David, and saith, `There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if the youths have been kept only from women.'
field: 9021005
9
21
5
And David answereth the priest, and saith to him, `Surely, if women have been restrained from us as heretofore in my going out, then the vessels of the young men are holy, and it `is' a common way: and also, surely to-day it is sanctified in the vessel.'
field: 9021006
9
21
6
And the priest giveth to him the holy thing, for there was no bread there except the bread of the Presence which is turned aside from the presence of Jehovah to put hot bread in the day of its being taken away.
field: 9021007
9
21
7
And there `is' a man of the servants of Saul on that day detained before Jehovah, and his name `is' Doeg the Edomite, chief of the shepherds whom Saul hath.
field: 9021008
9
21
8
And David saith to Ahimelech, `And is there not here under thy hand spear or sword? for neither my sword nor my vessels have I taken in my hand, for the matter of the king was urgent.'
field: 9021009
9
21
9
And the priest saith, `The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou didst smite in the valley of Elah, lo, it is wrapt in a garment behind the ephod, if it thou dost take to thyself, take; for there is none other save it in this `place'.' And David saith, `There is none like it -- give it to me.'
field: 9021010
9
21
10
And David riseth and fleeth on that day from the face of Saul, and cometh in unto Achish king of Gath;
field: 9021011
9
21
11
and the servants of Achish say unto him, `Is not this David king of the land? is it not of this one they sing in dances, saying, `Saul smote among his thousands, and David among his myriads?'
field: 9021012
9
21
12
And David layeth these words in his heart, and is exceedingly afraid of the face of Achish king of Gath,
field: 9021013
9
21
13
and changeth his behaviour before their eyes, and feigneth himself mad in their hand, and scribbleth on the doors of the gate, and letteth down his spittle unto his beard.
field: 9021014
9
21
14
And Achish saith unto his servants, `Lo, ye see a man acting as a madman; why do ye bring him in unto me?
field: 9021015
9
21
15
A lack of madmen `have' I, that ye have brought in this one to act as a madman by me! doth this one come in unto my house?'
field: 9022001
9
22
1
And David goeth thence, and is escaped unto the cave of Adullam, and his brethren hear, and all the house of his father, and go down unto him thither;
field: 9022002
9
22
2
and gather themselves unto him do every man in distress, and every man who hath an exactor, and every man bitter in soul, and he is over them for head, and there are with him about four hundred men.
field: 9022003
9
22
3
And David goeth thence to Mizpeh of Moab, and saith unto the king of Moab, `Let, I pray thee, my father and my mother go out with you, till that I know what God doth for me;'
field: 9022004
9
22
4
and he leadeth them before the king of Moab, and they dwell with him all the days of David's being in the fortress.
field: 9022005
9
22
5
And Gad the prophet saith unto David, `Thou dost not abide in a fortress, go, and thou hast entered for thee the land of Judah;' and David goeth and entereth the forest of Hareth.
field: 9022006
9
22
6
And Saul heareth that David hath become known, and the men who `are' with him, and Saul is abiding in Gibeah, under the grove in Ramah, and his spear `is' in his hand, and all his servants standing by him.
field: 9022007
9
22
7
And Saul saith to his servants who are standing by him, `Hear, I pray you, ye Benjamites; also to all of you doth the son of Jesse give fields and vineyards! all of you he doth appoint heads of thousands and heads of hundreds!
field: 9022008
9
22
8
for ye have conspired all of you against me, and there is none uncovering mine ear about my son's covenanting with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you grieving for me, and uncovering mine ear, that my son hath raised up my servant against me, to lie in wait as `at' this day.'
field: 9022009
9
22
9
And answer doth Doeg the Edomite, who is set over the servants of Saul, and saith, `I have seen the son of Jesse coming in to Nob, unto Ahimelech son of Ahitub,
field: 9022010
9
22
10
and he asketh for him at Jehovah, and provision hath given to him, and the sword of Goliath the Philistine hath given to him.
field: 9022011
9
22
11
And the king sendeth to call Ahimelech son of Ahitub, the priest, and all the house of his father, the priests, who `are' in Nob, and they come all of them unto the king;
field: 9022012
9
22
12
and Saul saith, `Hear, I pray thee, son of Ahitub;' and he saith, `Here `am' I, my lord.'
field: 9022013
9
22
13
And Saul saith unto him, `Why have ye conspired against me, thou and the son of Jesse, by thy giving to him bread and a sword, and to ask for him at God, to rise against me, to lie in wait, as `at' this day?'
field: 9022014
9
22
14
And Ahimelech answereth the king and saith, `And who among all thy servants `is' as David -- faithful, and son-in-law of the king, and hath turned aside unto thy council, and is honoured in thy house?
field: 9022015
9
22
15
To-day have I begun to ask for him at God? far be it from me! let not the king lay anything against his servant, against any of the house of my father, for thy servant hath known nothing of all this, less or more.'
field: 9022016
9
22
16
And the king saith, `Thou dost surely die, Ahimelech, thou, and all the house of thy father.'
field: 9022017
9
22
17
And the king saith to runners, those standing by him, `Turn round, and put to death the priests of Jehovah, because their hand also `is' with David, and because they have known that he is fleeing, and have not uncovered mine ear;' and the servants of the king have not been willing to put forth their hand to come against the priests of Jehovah.
field: 9022018
9
22
18
And the king saith to Doeg, `Turn round thou, and come against the priests;' and Doeg the Edomite turneth round, and cometh himself against the priests, and putteth to death in that day eighty and five men bearing a linen ephod,
field: 9022019
9
22
19
and Nob, the city of the priests, he hath smitten by the mouth of the sword, from man even unto woman, from infant even unto suckling, and ox, and ass, and sheep, by the mouth of the sword.
field: 9022020
9
22
20
And there escapeth one son of Ahimelech, son of Ahitub, and his name `is' Abiathar, and he fleeth after David,
field: 9022021
9
22
21
and Abiathar declareth to David that Saul hath slain the priests of Jehovah.
field: 9022022
9
22
22
And David saith to Abiathar, `I have known on that day when Doeg the Edomite `is' there, that he doth certainly declare `it' to Saul; I have brought `it' round to every person of the house of thy father;

And David asketh at Jehovah, saying, `Do I go? -- and have I smitten among these Philistines?' And Jehovah saith unto David, `Go, and thou hast smitten among the Philistines, and saved Keilah.'

And David's men say unto him, `Lo, we here in Judah are afraid; and how much more when we go to Keilah, unto the ranks of the Philistines?'
field: 9023004
9
23
4
And David addeth again to ask at Jehovah, and Jehovah answereth him, and saith, `Rise, go down to Keilah, for I am giving the Philistines into thy hand.'
field: 9023005
9
23
5
And David goeth, and his men, to Keilah, and fighteth with the Philistines, and leadeth away their cattle, and smiteth among them -- a great smiting, and David saveth the inhabitants of Keilah.
field: 9023006

6
And it cometh to pass, in the fleeing of Abiathar son of Ahimelech unto David, to Keilah, an ephod came down in his hand.
field: 9023007
9
23
7
And it is declared to Saul that David hath come in to Keilah, and Saul saith, `God hath made him known for my hand, for he hath been shut in, to enter into a city of doors and bar.'
field: 9023008
9
23
8
And Saul summoneth the whole of the people to battle, to go down to Keilah, to lay siege unto David and unto his men.
field: 9023009
9

9
And David knoweth that against him Saul is devising the evil, and saith unto Abiathar the priest, `Bring nigh the ephod.'
field: 9023010
9
23
10
And David saith, `Jehovah, God of Israel, Thy servant hath certainly heard that Saul is seeking to come in unto Keilah, to destroy the city on mine account.
field: 9023011
9
23
11
Do the possessors of Keilah shut me up into his hand? doth Saul come down as Thy servant hath heard? Jehovah, God of Israel, declare, I pray Thee, to Thy servant.' And Jehovah saith, `He doth come down.'
field: 9023012
9
23
12
And David saith, `Do the possessors of Keilah shut me up, and my men, into the hand of Saul?' And Jehovah saith, `They shut `thee' up.'
field: 9023013
9
23
13
And David riseth -- and his men -- about six hundred men, and they go out from Keilah, and go up and down where they go up and down; and to Saul it hath been declared that David hath escaped from Keilah, and he ceaseth to go out.
field: 9023014
9
23
14
And David abideth in the wilderness, in fortresses, and abideth in the hill-country, in the wilderness of Ziph; and Saul seeketh him all the days, and God hath not given him into his hand.
field: 9023015
9

15
And David seeth that Saul hath come out to seek his life, and David `is' in the wilderness of Ziph, in a forest.
field: 9023016

16
And Jonathan son of Saul riseth, and goeth unto David to the forest, and strengtheneth his hand in God,

9
23
17
and saith unto him, `Fear not, for the hand of Saul my father doth not find thee, and thou dost reign over Israel, and I am to thee for second, and also so knoweth Saul my father.'
field: 9023018
9
23
18
And they make a covenant both of them before Jehovah; and David abideth in the forest, and Jonathan hath gone to his house.
field: 9023019
9

19
And the Ziphites go up unto Saul to Gibeah, saying, `Is not David hiding himself with us in fortresses, in the forest, in the height of Hachilah, which `is' on the south of the desolate place?
field: 9023020
9
23
20
And, now, by all the desire of thy soul, O king, to come down, come down, and ours `is' to shut him up into the hand of the king.'
field: 9023021

23
21
And Saul saith, `Blessed `are' ye of Jehovah, for ye have pity on me;

22
go, I pray you, prepare yet, and know and see his place where his foot is; who hath seen him there? for `one' hath said unto me, He is very subtile.

And see and know of all the hiding-places where he hideth himself, and ye have turned back unto me prepared, and I have gone with you, and it hath been, if he is in the land, that I have searched him out through all the thousands of Judah.'

And they rise and go to Ziph before Saul, and David and his men `are' in the wilderness of Maon, in the plain, at the south of the desolate place.

And Saul and his men go to seek, and they declare to David, and he goeth down the rock, and abideth in the wilderness of Maon; and Saul heareth, and pursueth after David `to' the wilderness of Maon.
field: 9023026
9
23
26
And Saul goeth on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain, and David is hastened to go from the face of Saul, and Saul and his men are compassing David and his men, to catch them.
field: 9023027
9
23
27
And a messenger hath come in unto Saul, saying, `Haste, and come, for the Philistines have pushed against the land.'
field: 9023028

And Saul turneth back from pursuing after David, and goeth to meet the Philistines, therefore they have called that place `The Rock of Divisions.'

And David goeth up thence, and abideth in fortresses `at' En-gedi.

And Saul taketh three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and goeth to seek David and his men, on the front of the rocks of the wild goats,

and he cometh in unto folds of the flock, on the way, and there `is' a cave, and Saul goeth in to cover his feet; and David and his men in the sides of the cave are abiding.

4
And the men of David say unto him, `Lo, the day of which Jehovah said unto thee, Lo, I am giving thine enemy into thy hand, and thou hast done to him as it is good in thine eyes;' and David riseth and cutteth off the skirt of the upper robe which `is' on Saul -- gently.
field: 9024005

5
And it cometh to pass afterwards that the heart of David smiteth him, because that he hath cut off the skirt which `is' on Saul,

and he saith to his men, `Far be it from me, by Jehovah; I do not do this thing to my lord -- to the anointed of Jehovah -- to put forth my hand against him, for the anointed of Jehovah he `is'.'
field: 9024007
9
24

And David subdueth his men by words, and hath not permitted them to rise against Saul; and Saul hath risen from the cave, and goeth on the way;
field: 9024008
9
24
8
and David riseth afterwards, and goeth out from the cave, and calleth after Saul, saying, `My lord, O king!' And Saul looketh attentively behind him, and David boweth -- face to the earth -- and doth obeisance.
field: 9024009
9

And David saith to Saul, `Why dost thou hear the words of man, saying, Lo, David is seeking thine evil?

10
Lo, this day have thine eyes seen how that Jehovah hath given thee to-day into my hand in the cave; and `one' said to slay thee, and `mine eye' hath pity on thee, and I say, I do not put forth my hand against my lord, for the anointed of Jehovah he `is'.

`And, my father, see, yea see the skirt of thine upper robe in my hand; for by cutting off the skirt of thy upper robe, and I have not slain thee, know and see that there is not in my hand evil and transgression, and I have not sinned against thee, and thou art hunting my soul to take it!

`Jehovah doth judge between me and thee, and Jehovah hath avenged me of thee, and my hand is not on thee;

And it cometh to pass, when David completeth to speak these words unto Saul, that Saul saith, `Is this thy voice, my son David?' and Saul lifteth up his voice, and weepeth.
field: 9024017
9
24
17
And he saith unto David, `More righteous thou `art' than I; for thou hast done me good, and I have done thee evil;

9
24
18
and thou hast declared to-day how that thou hast done good with me, how that Jehovah shut me up into thy hand, and thou didst not slay me,

and that a man doth find his enemy, and hath sent him away in a good manner; and Jehovah doth repay thee good for that which thou didst to me this day.

`And, now, lo, I have known that thou dost certainly reign, and the kingdom of Israel hath stood in thy hand;

and, now, swear to me by Jehovah -- thou dost not cut off my seed after me, nor dost thou destroy my name from the house of my father.'

And David sweareth to Saul, and Saul goeth unto his house, and David and his men have gone up unto the fortress.

And Samuel dieth, and all Israel are gathered, and mourn for him, and bury him in his house, in Ramah; and David riseth and goeth down unto the wilderness of Paran.

2
And `there is' a man in Maon, and his work `is' in Carmel; and the man `is' very great, and he hath three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats; and he is shearing his flock in Carmel.

And the name of the man `is' Nabal, and the name of his wife Abigail, and the woman `is' of good understanding, and of fair form, and the man `is' hard and evil `in' doings; and he `is' a Calebite.

9
25
4
And David heareth in the wilderness that Nabal is shearing his flock,

9
25
5
and David sendeth ten young men, and David saith to the young men, `Go ye up to Carmel, and ye have come in unto Nabal, and asked of him in my name of welfare,

9
25
6
and said thus: To life! and thou, peace; and thy house, peace; and all that thou hast -- peace!
field: 9025007
9

7
and, now, I have heard that thou hast shearers; now, the shepherds whom thou hast have been with us, we have not put them to shame, nor hath anything been looked after by them, all the days of their being in Carmel.

`Ask thy young men, and they declare to thee, and the young men find grace in thine eyes, for on a good day we have come; give, I pray thee, that which thy hand findeth, to thy servants, and to thy son, to David.'

9
And the young men of David come in, and speak unto Nabal according to all these words, in the name of David -- and rest.
field: 9025010

25
10
And Nabal answereth the servants of David and saith, `Who `is' David, and who the son of Jesse? to-day have servants been multiplied who are breaking away each from his master;

9
25
11
and I have taken my bread, and my water, and my flesh, which I slaughtered for my shearers, and have given `it' to men whom I have not known whence they `are'!'

12
And the young men of David turn on their way, and turn back, and come in, and declare to him according to all these words.

And David saith to his men, `Gird ye on each his sword;' and they gird on each his sword, and David also girdeth on his sword, and there go up after David about four hundred men, and two hundred have remained by the vessels.

9
25
14
And to Abigail wife of Nabal hath one young man of the youths declared, saying, `Lo, David hath sent messengers out of the wilderness to bless our lord, and he flieth upon them;

25
15
and the men `are' very good to us, and have not put us to shame, and we have not looked after anything all the days we have gone up and down with them, in our being in the field;

`And, now, know and consider what thou dost; for evil hath been determined against our lord, and against all his house, and he `is' too much a son of worthlessness to be spoken to.'

And Abigail hasteth, and taketh two hundred loaves, and two bottles of wine, and five sheep, prepared, and five measures of roasted corn, and a hundred bunches of raisins, and two hundred bunches of figs, and setteth `them' on the asses.

And she saith to her young men, `Pass over before me; lo, after you I am coming;' and to her husband Nabal she hath not declared `it';

and it hath come to pass, she is riding on the ass and is coming down in the secret part of the hill-country, and lo, David and his men are coming down to meet her, and she meeteth them.

And David said, `Only, in vain I have kept all that this `one' hath in the wilderness, and nothing hath been looked after of all that he hath, and he turneth back to me evil for good;

And Abigail seeth David, and hasteth and cometh down from off the ass, and falleth before David on her face, and boweth herself to the earth,

and falleth at his feet and saith, `On me, my lord, the iniquity; and let, I pray thee, thy handmaid speak in thine ear, and hear the words of thy handmaid.

`Let not, I pray thee, my lord set his heart to this man of worthlessness, on Nabal, for as his name `is' so `is' he; Nabal `is' his name, and folly `is' with him; and I, thine handmaid, did not see the young men of my lord whom thou didst send;

and now, my lord, Jehovah liveth, and thy soul liveth, in that Jehovah hath withheld thee from coming in with blood, and to save thy hand to thee -- now let thine enemies be as Nabal, even those seeking evil unto my lord.

`And, now, this blessing which thy maid-servant hath brought to my lord -- it hath been given to the young men who are going up and down at the feet of my lord.

And man riseth to pursue thee and to seek thy soul, and the soul of my lord hath been bound in the bundle of life with Jehovah thy God; as to the soul of thine enemies, He doth sling them out in the midst of the hollow of the sling.

`And it hath been, when Jehovah doth to my lord according to all the good which He hath spoken concerning thee, and appointed thee for leader over Israel,

And David saith to Abigail, `Blessed `is' Jehovah, God of Israel, who hath sent thee this day to meet me,

and blessed `is' thy discretion, and blessed `art' thou in that thou hast restrained me this day from coming in with blood, and to restrain my hand to myself.

And yet, Jehovah liveth, God of Israel, who hath kept me back from doing evil with thee, for unless thou hadst hasted, and dost come to meet me, surely there had not been left to Nabal till the light of the morning, of those sitting on the wall.'

And David receiveth from her hand that which she hath brought to him, and to her he hath said, `Go up in peace to thy house; see, I have hearkened to thy voice, and accept thy face.'

And Abigail cometh in unto Nabal, and lo, he hath a banquet in his house, like a banquet of the king, and the heart of Nabal `is' glad within him, and he `is' drunk unto excess, and she hath not declared to him anything, less or more, till the light of the morning.

And it cometh to pass in the morning, when the wine is gone out from Nabal, that his wife declareth to him these things, and his heart dieth within him, and he hath been as a stone.

And it cometh to pass, `in' about ten days, that Jehovah smiteth Nabal, and he dieth,

and David heareth that Nabal `is' dead, and saith, `Blessed `is' Jehovah who hath pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and His servant hath kept back from evil, and the wickedness of Nabal hath Jehovah turned back on his own head;' and David sendeth and speaketh with Abigail, to take her to him for a wife.

And Saul riseth, and goeth down unto the wilderness of Ziph, and with him three thousand men, chosen ones of Israel, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.

And Saul encampeth in the height of Hachilah, which `is' on the front of the desert, by the way, and David is abiding in the wilderness, and he seeth that Saul hath come after him in to the wilderness;

And David cometh -- and Abishai -- unto the people by night, and lo, Saul is lying sleeping in the path, and his spear struck into the earth at his pillow, and abner and the people are lying round about him.

And David saith, `Jehovah liveth; except Jehovah doth smite him, or his day come that he hath died, or into battle he go down, and hath been consumed --

Not good is this thing which thou hast done; Jehovah liveth, but ye `are' sons of death, in that ye have not watched over your lord, over the anointed of Jehovah; and now, see where the king's spear `is', and the cruse of water which `is' at his bolster.'

And David saith unto his heart, `Now am I consumed one day by the hand of Saul; there is nothing for me better than that I diligently escape unto the land of the Philistines, and Saul hath been despairing of me -- of seeking me any more in all the border of Israel, and I have escaped out of his hand.'

And the number of the days which David hath dwelt in the field of the Philistines `is' days and four months;

Neither man nor woman doth David keep alive, to bring in `word' to Gath, saying, `Lest they declare `it' against us, saying, Thus hath David done, and thus `is' his custom all the days that he hath dwelt in the fields of the Philistines.'

And Jehovah doth for Himself as He hath spoken by my hand, and Jehovah rendeth the kingdom out of thy hand, and giveth it to thy neighbour -- to David.

Because thou hast not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah, nor didst the fierceness of His anger on Amalek -- therefore this thing hath Jehovah done to thee this day;

And Achish calleth unto David, and saith unto him, `Jehovah liveth, surely thou `art' upright, and good in mine eyes is thy going out, and thy coming in, with me in the camp, for I have not found in thee evil from the day of thy coming in unto me till this day; and in the eyes of the princes thou art not good;

And David saith to him, `Whose `art' thou? and whence `art' thou?' And he saith, `An Egyptian youth I `am', servant to a man, an Amalekite, and my lord forsaketh me, for I have been sick three days,

And there hath not lacked to them `anything', from small unto great, and unto sons and daughters, and from the spoil, even unto all that they had taken to themselves, the whole hath David brought back,

And David cometh in unto the two hundred men who were too faint to go after David, and whom they cause to abide at the brook of Besor, and they go out to meet David, and to meet the people who `are' with him, and David approacheth the people, and asketh of them of welfare.

And every bad and worthless man, of the men who have gone with David, answereth, yea, they say, `Because that they have not gone with us we do not give to them of the spoil which we have delivered, except each his wife and his children, and they lead away and go.

And the battle is hard against Saul, and the archers find him -- men with bow -- and he is pained greatly by the archers;

And it cometh to pass afterwards, that David asketh at Jehovah, saying, `Do I go up into one of the cities of Judah?' and Jehovah saith unto him, `Go up.' And David saith, `Whither do I go up?' and He saith, `To Hebron.'
field: 10002002
10

And David goeth up thither, and also his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelite;

and his men who `are' with him hath David brought up -- a man and his household -- and they dwell in the cities of Hebron.

And the men of Judah come, and anoint there David for king over the house of Judah; and they declare to David, saying, `The men of Jabesh-Gilead `are' they who buried Saul.'

10

And David sendeth messengers unto the men of Jabesh-Gilead, and saith unto them, `Blessed `are' ye of Jehovah, in that ye have done this kindness with your lord, with Saul, that ye bury him.

`And, now, Jehovah doth with you kindness and truth, and also, I do with you this good because ye have done this thing;

And Abner, son of Ner, head of the host which Saul hath, hath taken Ish-Bosheth, son of Saul, and causeth him to pass over to Mahanaim,
field: 10002009
10

and causeth him to reign over Gilead, and over the Ashurite, and over Jezreel, and over Ephraim, and over Benjamin, and over Israel -- all of it.

A son of forty years, `is' Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, in his reigning over Israel, and two years he hath reigned, only the house of Judah have been after David.

11
And the number of the days that David hath been king in Hebron, over the house of Judah, is seven years and six months.
field: 10002012
10

12
And Abner son of Ner goeth out, and servants of Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, from Mahanaim to Gibeon.

And Joab son of Zeruiah, and servants of David, have gone out, and they meet by the pool of Gibeon together, and sit down, these by the pool on this `side', and these by the pool on that.
field: 10002014
10

14
And Abner saith unto Joab, `Let the youths rise, I pray thee, and they play before us;' and Joab saith, `Let them rise.'
field: 10002015
10

15
And they rise and pass over, in number twelve of Benjamin, even of Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, and twelve of the servants of David.
field: 10002016
10

16
And they lay hold, each on the head of his companion, and his sword `is' in the side of his companion, and they fall together, and `one' calleth that place Helkath-Hazzurim, which `is' in Gibeon,
field: 10002017
10

17
and the battle is very hard on that day, and Abner is smitten, and the men of Israel, before the servants of David.

10

18
And there are there three sons of Zeruiah, Joab, and Abishai, and Asahel, and Asahel `is' light on his feet, as one of the roes which `are' in the field,
field: 10002019
10

19
And Asahel pursueth after Abner, and hath not turned aside to go to the right or to the left, from after Abner.

20
And Abner looketh behind him, and saith, `Art thou he -- Asahel?' and he saith, `I `am'.'

10

And Abner saith to him, `Turn thee aside to thy right hand or to thy left, and seize for thee one of the youths, and take to thee his armour;' and Asahel hath not been willing to turn aside from after him.
field: 10002022
10
2
22
And Abner addeth again, saying unto Asahel, `Turn thee aside from after me, why do I smite thee to the earth? and how do I lift up my face unto Joab thy brother?'
field: 10002023
10
2
23
And he refuseth to turn aside, and Abner smiteth him with the hinder part of the spear unto the fifth `rib', and the spear cometh out from behind him, and he falleth there, and dieth under it; and it cometh to pass, every one who hath come unto the place where Asahel hath fallen and dieth -- they stand still.
field: 10002024
10

24
And Joab and Abishai pursue after Abner, and the sun hath gone in, and they have come in unto the height of Ammah, which `is' on the front of Giah, the way of the wilderness of Gibeon.
field: 10002025
10
2
25
And the sons of Benjamin gather themselves together after Abner, and become one troop, and stand on the top of a certain height,
field: 10002026
10
2
26
and Abner calleth unto Joab, and saith, `For ever doth the sword consume? hast thou not known that it is bitterness in the latter end? and till when dost thou not say to the people to turn back from after their brethren?'
field: 10002027
10

And Joab saith, `God liveth! for unless thou hadst spoken, surely then from the morning had the people gone up each from after his brother.'

And Joab bloweth with a trumpet, and all the people stand still, and pursue no more after Israel, nor have they added any more to fight.

And Abner and his men have gone through the plain all that night, and pass over the Jordan, and go on `through' all Bithron, and come in to Mahanaim.
field: 10002030
10
2
30
And Joab hath turned back from after Abner, and gathereth all the people, and there are lacking of the servants of David nineteen men, and Asahel;
field: 10002031
10
2
31
and the servants of David have smitten of Benjamin, even among the men of Abner, three hundred and sixty men -- they died.
field: 10002032
10

And they lift up Asahel, and bury him in the burying-place of his father, which `is' in Beth-Lehem, and they go all the night -- Joab and his men -- and it is light to them in Hebron.

And the war is long between the house of Saul and the house of David, and David is going on and `is' strong, and the house of Saul are going on and `are' weak.

And there are born to David sons in Hebron, and his first-born is Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess,

And it cometh to pass, in the war being between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner hath been strengthening himself in the house of Saul,

10

7
and Saul hath a concubine, and her name `is' Rizpah daughter of Aiah, and `Ish-Bosheth' saith unto Abner, `Wherefore hast thou gone in unto the concubine of my father?'
field: 10003008
10
3
8
And it is displeasing to Abner exceedingly, because of the words of Ish-Bosheth, and he saith, `The head of a dog `am' I -- that in reference to Judah to-day I do kindness with the house of Saul thy father, unto his brethren, and unto his friends, and have not delivered thee into the hand of David -- that thou chargest against me iniquity concerning the woman to-day?
field: 10003009
10

thus doth God to Abner, and thus He doth add to him, surely as Jehovah hath sworn to David -- surely so I do to him:
field: 10003010
10

10
to cause the kingdom to pass over from the house of Saul, and to raise up the throne of David over Israel, and over Judah, from Dan even unto Beer-Sheba.'
field: 10003011
10

11
And he is not able any more to turn back Abner a word, because of his fearing him.
field: 10003012
10

12
And Abner sendeth messengers unto David for himself, saying, `Whose `is' the land?' saying, `Make thy covenant with me, and lo, my hand `is' with thee, to bring round unto thee all Israel.'
field: 10003013
10

13
And he saith, `Good -- I make with thee a covenant; only, one thing I am asking of thee, that is, Thou dost not see my face, except thou dost first bring in Michal, daughter of Saul in thy coming into see my face.'
field: 10003014
10

14
And David sendeth messengers unto Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, saying, `Give up my wife Michal, whom I betrothed to myself with a hundred foreskins of the Philistines.'
field: 10003015
10
3
15
And Ish-Bosheth sendeth, and taketh her from a man, from Phaltiel son of Laish,
field: 10003016
10
3
16
and her husband goeth with her, going on and weeping behind her, unto Bahurim, and Abner saith unto him, `Go, turn back;' and he turneth back.
field: 10003017
10
3
17
And the word of Abner was with the elders of Israel, saying, `Heretofore ye have been seeking David for king over you,
field: 10003018
10
3
18
and now, do `it', for Jehovah hath spoken of David saying, By the hand of David my servant -- to save My people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.'
field: 10003019
10

19
And Abner speaketh also in the ears of Benjamin, and Abner goeth also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that `is' good in the eyes of Israel, and in the eyes of all the house of Benjamin,
field: 10003020
10
3
20
and Abner cometh in unto David, to Hebron, and with him twenty men, and David maketh for Abner, and for the men who `are' with him, a banquet.
field: 10003021
10
3
21
And Abner saith unto David, `I arise, and go, and gather unto my lord the king the whole of Israel, and they make with thee a covenant, and thou hast reigned over all that thy soul desireth;' and David sendeth away Abner, and he goeth in peace.
field: 10003022
10

22
And lo, the servants of David, and Joab, have come from the troop, and much spoil have brought with them, and Abner is not with David in Hebron, for he hath sent him away, and he goeth in peace;

10
3
23
and Joab and all the host that `is' with him have come, and they declare to Joab, saying, `Abner son of Ner hath come unto the king, and he sendeth him away, and he goeth in peace.'
field: 10003024
10

24
And Joab cometh unto the king, and saith, `What hast thou done? lo, Abner hath come unto thee! why `is' this -- thou hast sent him away, and he is really gone?
field: 10003025
10
3
25
Thou hast known Abner son of Ner, that to deceive thee he came, and to know thy going out and thy coming in, and to know all that thou art doing.'
field: 10003026
10

26
And Joab goeth out from David, and sendeth messengers after Abner, and they bring him back from the well of Sirah, and David knew not.
field: 10003027
10
3
27
And Abner turneth back to Hebron, and Joab turneth him aside unto the midst of the gate to speak with him quietly, and smiteth him there in the fifth `rib' -- and he dieth -- for the blood of Asahel his brother.
field: 10003028
10
3
28
And David heareth afterwards and saith, `Acquitted `am' I, and my kingdom, by Jehovah, unto the age, from the blood of Abner son of Ner;
field: 10003029
10
3
29
it doth stay on the head of Joab, and on all the house of his father, and there is not cut off from the house of Joab one having an issue, and leprous, and laying hold on a staff, and falling by a sword, and lacking bread.'

30
And Joab and Abishai his brother slew Abner because that he put to death Asahel their brother, in Gibeon, in battle.
field: 10003031
10

31
And David saith unto Joab, and unto all the people who `are' with him, `Rend your garments, and gird on sackcloth, and mourn before Abner;' and king David is going after the bier.
field: 10003032
10
3
32
And they bury Abner in Hebron, and the king lifteth up his voice, and weepeth at the grave of Abner, and all the people weep;

33
and the king lamenteth for Abner, and saith: -- `As the death of a fool doth Abner die?

34
Thy hands not bound, And thy feet to fetters not brought nigh! As one falling before sons of evil -- Thou hast fallen!' and all the people add to weep over him.
field: 10003035
10

35
And all the people come to cause David to eat bread while yet day, and David sweareth, saying, `Thus doth God to me, and thus He doth add, for -- before the going in of the sun, I taste no bread or any other thing.'
field: 10003036
10

36
And all the people have discerned `it', and it is good in their eyes, as all that the king hath done is good in the eyes of all the people;

37
and all the people know, even all Israel, in that day, that it hath not been from the king -- to put to death Abner son of Ner.

And the king saith unto his servants, `Do ye not know that a prince and a great one hath fallen this day in Israel?

and I to-day `am' tender, and an anointed king: and these men, sons of Zeruiah, `are' too hard for me; Jehovah doth recompense to the doer of the evil according to his evil.'

And the son of Saul heareth that Abner `is' dead in Hebron, and his hands are feeble, and all Israel have been troubled.

And two men, heads of troops, have been `to' the son of Saul, the name of the one `is' Baanah, and the name of the second Rechab, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the sons of Benjamin, for also Beeroth is reckoned to Benjamin,

And to Jonathan son of Saul `is' a son -- lame; he was a son of five years at the coming in of the rumour of `the death of' Saul and Jonathan, out of Jezreel, and his nurse lifteth him up, and fleeth, and it cometh to pass in her hasting to flee, that he falleth, and becometh lame, and his name `is' Mephibosheth.

And the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, go, and come in at the heat of the day unto the house of Ish-Bosheth, and he is lying down -- the lying down of noon;

and thither they have come, unto the midst of the house, taking wheat, and they smite him unto the fifth `rib', and Rechab and Baanah his brother have escaped;

7
yea, they come in to the house, and he is lying on his bed, in the inner part of his bed-chamber, and they smite him, and put him to death, and turn aside his head, and they take his head, and go the way of the plain all the night,

and bring in the head of Ish-Bosheth unto David in Hebron, and say unto the king, `Lo, the head of Ish-Bosheth, son of Saul, thine enemy, who sought thy life; and Jehovah doth give to my lord the king vengeance this day, of Saul and of his seed.'

And David answereth Rechab and Baanah his brother, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and saith to them, `Jehovah liveth, who hath redeemed my soul out of all adversity,

10
when one is declaring to me, saying, Lo, Saul is dead, and he was as a bearer of tidings in his own eyes, then I take hold on him, and slay him in Ziklag, instead of my giving to him `for' the tidings.

And David commandeth the young men, and they slay them, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hang `them' over the pool in Hebron, and the head of Ish-Bosheth they have taken, and bury `it' in the burying-place of Abner in Hebron.

And all the tribes of Israel come unto David, to Hebron, and speak, saying, `Lo, we `are' thy bone and thy flesh;

also heretofore, in Saul's being king over us, thou hast been he who is bringing out and bringing in Israel, and Jehovah saith to thee, Thou dost feed My people Israel, and thou art for leader over Israel.'

in Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years, over all Israel and Judah.

And the king goeth, and his men, to Jerusalem, unto the Jebusite, the inhabitant of the land, and they speak to David, saying, `Thou dost not come in hither, except thou turn aside the blind and the lame;' saying, `David doth not come in hither.'

And David captureth the fortress of Zion, it `is' the city of David.

And David saith on that day, `Any one smiting the Jebusite, (let him go up by the watercourse), and the lame and the blind -- the hated of David's soul,' -- because the blind and lame say, `He doth not come into the house.'

And David dwelleth in the fortress, and calleth it -- City of David, and David buildeth round about, from Millo and inward,

and David goeth, going on and becoming great, and Jehovah, God of Hosts, `is' with him.

and David knoweth that Jehovah hath established him for king over Israel, and that He hath lifted up his kingdom, because of His people Israel.

And David taketh again concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after his coming from Hebron, and there are born again to David sons and daughters.

And these `are' the names of those born to him in Jerusalem: Shammuah, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,

And the Philistines hear that they have anointed David for king over Israel, and all the Philistines come up to seek David, and David heareth, and goeth down unto the fortress,

18
and the Philistines have come, and are spread out in the valley of Rephaim.

And David asketh of Jehovah, saying, `Do I go up unto the Philistines? dost Thou give them into my hand?' And Jehovah saith unto David, `Go up, for I certainly give the Philistines into thy hand.'

And David cometh in to Baal-Perazim, and David smiteth them there, and saith, `Jehovah hath broken forth `on' mine enemies before me, as the breaking forth of waters;' therefore he hath called the name of that place Baal-Perazim.

And they forsake there their idols, and David and his men lift them up.

And the Philistines add again to come up, and are spread out in the valley of Rephaim,

and David asketh of Jehovah, and He saith, `Thou dost not go up, turn round unto their rear, and thou hast come to them over-against the mulberries,

24
and it cometh to pass, in thy hearing the sound of a stepping in the tops of the mulberries, then thou dost move sharply, for then hath Jehovah gone out before thee to smite in the camp of the Philistines.'

And David doth so, as Jehovah commanded him, and smiteth the Philistines from Geba unto thy coming to Gazer.

And David gathered again every chosen one in Israel, thirty thousand,

and David riseth and goeth, and all the people who `are' with him, from Baale-Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God, whose name hath been called -- the name of Jehovah of Hosts, inhabiting the cherubs -- upon it.

And they cause the ark of God to ride on a new cart, and lift it up from the house of Abinadab, which `is' in the height, and Uzzah and Ahio sons of Abinadab are leading the new cart;

and David and all the house of Israel are playing before Jehovah, with all kinds of `instruments' of fir-wood, even with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cornets, and with cymbals.

10

And they come unto the threshing-floor of Nachon, and Uzzah putteth forth `his hand' unto the ark of God, and layeth hold on it, for they released the oxen;

and the anger of Jehovah burneth against Uzzah, and God smiteth him there for the error, and he dieth there by the ark of God.

And it is displeasing to David, because that Jehovah hath broken forth a breach upon Uzzah, and `one' calleth that place Perez-Uzzah, unto this day;

and David feareth Jehovah on that day, and saith, `How doth the ark of Jehovah come in unto me?'

And David hath not been willing to turn aside unto himself the ark of Jehovah, to the city of David, and David turneth it aside to the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite,

11
and the ark of Jehovah doth inhabit the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months, and Jehovah blesseth Obed-Edom and all his house.
field: 10006012
10
6
12
And it is declared to king David, saying, `Jehovah hath blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that he hath, because of the ark of God;' and David goeth and bringeth up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the city of David with joy.
field: 10006013
10

13
And it cometh to pass, when those bearing the ark of Jehovah have stepped six steps, that he sacrificeth an ox and a fatling.
field: 10006014

14
And David is dancing with all strength before Jehovah, and David is girded with a linen ephod,
field: 10006015
10
6
15
and David and all the house of Israel are bringing up the ark of Jehovah with shouting, and with the voice of a trumpet,

10

16
and it hath come to pass, the ark of Jehovah hath come in to the city of David, and Michal daughter of Saul, hath looked through the window, and seeth king David moving and dancing before Jehovah, and despiseth him in her heart.
field: 10006017
10
6
17
And they bring in the ark of Jehovah, and set it up in its place, in the midst of the tent which David hath spread out for it, and David causeth to ascend burnt-offerings before Jehovah, and peace-offerings.
field: 10006018
10

18
And David finisheth from causing to ascend the burnt-offering, and the peace-offerings, and blesseth the people in the name of Jehovah of Hosts,
field: 10006019
10
6
19
and he apportioneth to all the people, to all the multitude of Israel, from man even unto woman, to each, one cake of bread, and one eshpar, and one ashisha, and all the people go, each to his house.
field: 10006020
10

20
And David turneth back to bless his house, and Michal daughter of Saul goeth out to meet David, and saith, `How honourable to-day was the king of Israel, who was uncovered to-day before the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain ones is openly uncovered!'
field: 10006021
10
6
21
And David saith unto Michal, `-- Before Jehovah, who fixed on me above thy father, and above all his house, to appoint me leader over the people of Jehovah, and over Israel, -- yea, I played before Jehovah;
field: 10006022
10

22
and I have been more vile than this, and have been low in mine eyes, and with the handmaids whom thou hast spoken of, with them I am honoured.'

As to Michal daughter of Saul, she had no child till the day of her death.

And it cometh to pass, when the king sat in his house, and Jehovah hath given rest to him round about, from all his enemies,
field: 10007002
10
7
2
that the king saith unto Nathan the prophet, `See, I pray thee, I am dwelling in a house of cedars, and the ark of God is dwelling in the midst of the curtain.'
field: 10007003
10
7
3
And Nathan saith unto the king, `All that `is' in thine heart -- go, do, for Jehovah `is' with thee.'
field: 10007004
10
7
4
And it cometh to pass in that night, that the word of Jehovah is unto Nathan, saying,
field: 10007005
10
7
5
`Go, and thou hast said unto My servant, unto David, Thus said Jehovah, Dost thou build for Me a house for My dwelling in?
field: 10007006
10
7
6
for I have not dwelt in a house even from the day of My bringing up the sons of Israel out of Egypt, even unto this day, and am walking up and down in a tent and in a tabernacle.
field: 10007007
10
7
7
During all `the time' that I have walked up and down among all the sons of Israel, a word have I spoken with one of the tribes of Israel which I commanded to feed my people Israel, saying, `Why have ye not built to Me a house of cedars?
field: 10007008
10
7
8
and now, thus dost thou say to My servant, to David: `Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, I have taken thee from the comely place, from after the flock, to be leader over My people, over Israel;
field: 10007009
10
7
9
and I am with thee whithersoever thou hast gone, and I cut off all thine enemies from thy presence, and have made for thee a great name, as the name of the great ones who `are' in the earth,
field: 10007010
10
7
10
and I have appointed a place for My people, for Israel, and have planted it, and it hath tabernacled in its place, and it is not troubled any more, and the sons of perverseness do not add to afflict it any more, as in the beginning,
field: 10007011
10
7
11
even from the day that I appointed judges over My people Israel; and I have given rest to thee from all thine enemies, and Jehovah hath declared to thee that Jehovah doth make for thee a house.
field: 10007012
10
7
12
`When thy days are full, and thou hast lain with thy fathers, then I have raised up thy seed after thee which goeth out from thy bowels, and have established his kingdom;
field: 10007013
10
7
13
He doth build a house for My Name, and I have established the throne of his kingdom unto the age.
field: 10007014
10
7
14
I am to him for a father, and he is to Me for a son; whom in his dealings perversely I have even reproved with a rod of men, and with strokes of the sons of Adam,
field: 10007015
10
7
15
and My kindness doth not turn aside from him, as I turned it aside from Saul, whom I turned aside from before thee,

10

16
and stedfast `is' thy house and thy kingdom unto the age before thee, thy throne is established unto the age.'
field: 10007017
10
7
17
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so spake Nathan unto David.
field: 10007018
10
7
18
And king David cometh in and sitteth before Jehovah, and saith, `Who `am' I, Lord Jehovah? and what my house, that Thou hast brought me hitherto?
field: 10007019
10
7
19
And yet this `is' little in Thine eyes, Lord Jehovah, and Thou dost speak also concerning the house of Thy servant afar off; and this `is' the law of the Man, Lord Jehovah.
field: 10007020
10
7
20
And what doth David add more to speak unto Thee? and Thou, Thou hast known Thy servant, Lord Jehovah.
field: 10007021
10
7
21
Because of Thy word, and according to Thy heart, Thou hast done all this greatness, to cause Thy servant to know `it'.
field: 10007022
10
7
22
Therefore Thou hast been great, Jehovah God, for there is none like Thee, and there is no God save Thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
field: 10007023
10

23
`And who `is' as Thy people, as Israel -- one nation in the earth, whom God hath gone to redeem to Him for a people, and to make for Him a name -- and to do for you the greatness -- even fearful things for Thy land, at the presence of Thy people, whom Thou hast redeemed to Thee out of Egypt -- `among the' nations and their gods?
field: 10007024
10

24
Yea, Thou dost establish to Thee Thy people Israel, to Thee for a people unto the age, and Thou, Jehovah, hast been to them for God.
field: 10007025
10

25
`And now, Jehovah God, the word which Thou hast spoken concerning Thy servant, and concerning his house, establish unto the age, and do as Thou hast spoken;
field: 10007026
10
7
26
And Thy Name is great unto the age, saying, Jehovah of Hosts `is' God over Israel, and the house of Thy servant David is established before Thee,
field: 10007027
10
7
27
For Thou, Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Thou hast uncovered the ear of Thy servant, saying, A house I build for thee, therefore hath Thy servant found his heart to pray unto Thee this prayer;
field: 10007028
10
7
28
And now, Lord Jehovah, Thou `art' God Himself, and Thy words are truth, and Thou speakest unto Thy servant this goodness,

And now, begin and bless the house of Thy servant, to be unto the age before Thee, for Thou, Lord Jehovah, hast spoken, and by Thy blessing is the house of Thy servant blessed -- to the age.'

And Aram of Damascus cometh to give help to Hadadezer king of Zobah, and David smiteth of Aram twenty and two thousand men;

and David putteth garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and Aram is to David for a servant, bearing a present; and Jehovah saveth David whithersoever he hath gone;

and David taketh the shields of gold which were on the servants of Hadadezer, and bringeth them to Jerusalem;

and Toi sendeth Joram his son unto king David to ask of him of welfare, and to bless him, (because that he hath fought against Hadadezer, and smiteth him, for a man of wars `with' Toi had Hadadezer been), and in his hand have been vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass,

And David maketh a name in his turning back from his smiting Aram in the valley of Salt -- eighteen thousand;

and he putteth in Edom garrisons -- in all Edom he hath put garrisons, and all Edom are servants to David; and Jehovah saveth David whithersoever he hath gone.

And it cometh to pass afterwards, that the king of the Bene-Ammon dieth, and Hanun his son reigneth in his stead,

and David saith, `I do kindness with Hanun son of Nahash, as his father did with me kindness;' and David sendeth to comfort him by the hand of his servants concerning his father, and the servants of David come in to the land of the Bene-Ammon.

And the heads of the Bene-Ammon say unto Hanun their lord, `Is David honouring thy father in thine eyes because he hath sent to thee comforters? for to search the city, and to spy it, and to overthrow it, hath not David sent his servants unto thee?'

And Hanun taketh the servants of David, and shaveth off the half of their beard, and cutteth off their long robes in the midst -- unto their buttocks, and sendeth them away;

And the Bene-Ammon see that they have been abhorred by David, and the Bene-Ammon send and hire Aram of Beth-Rehob, and Aram of Zoba, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Maacah `with' a thousand men, and Ish-Tob `with' twelve thousand men;

And the Bene-Ammon come out, and set battle in array, at the opening of the gate, and Aram of Zoba, and Rehob, and Ish-Tob, and Maacah, `are' by themselves in the field;

and Joab seeth that the front of the battle hath been unto him before and behind, and he chooseth of all the chosen in Israel, and setteth in array to meet Aram,

and the rest of the people he hath given into the hand of Abishai his brother, and setteth in array to meet the Bene-Ammon.

And he saith, `If Aram be stronger than I, then thou hast been to me for salvation, and if the Bene-Ammon be stronger than thou, then I have come to give salvation to thee;

be strong and strengthen thyself for our people, and for the cities of our God, and Jehovah doth that which is good in His eyes.'

And Joab draweth nigh, and the people who `are' with him, to battle against Aram, and they flee from his presence;

and the Bene-Ammon have seen that Aram hath fled, and they flee from the presence of Abishai, and go in to the city; and Joab turneth back from the Bene-Ammon, and cometh in to Jerusalem.

And Aram seeth that it is smitten before Israel, and they are gathered together;

and Hadadezer sendeth, and bringeth out Aram which `is' beyond the River, and they come in to Helam, and Shobach head of the host of Hadadezer `is' before them.

And it is declared to David, and he gathereth all Israel, and passeth over the Jordan, and cometh in to Helam, and Aram setteth itself in array to meet David, and they fight with him;

and Aram fleeth from the presence of Israel, and David slayeth of Aram seven hundred charioteers, and forty thousand horsemen, and Shobach head of its host he hath smitten, and he dieth there.

And all the kings -- servants of Hadadezer -- see that they have been smitten before Israel, and make peace with Israel, and serve them; and Aram is afraid to help any more the Bene-Ammon.

And it cometh to pass, at the revolution of the year -- at the time of the going out of the messengers -- that David sendeth Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel, and they destroy the Bene-Ammon, and lay siege against Rabbah. And David is dwelling in Jerusalem,

And David sendeth messengers, and taketh her, and she cometh unto him, and he lieth with her -- and she is purifying herself from her uncleanness -- and she turneth back unto her house;

And David saith to Uriah, `Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet;' and Uriah goeth out of the king's house, and there goeth out after him a gift from the king,

And Uriah saith unto David, `The ark, and Israel, and Judah, are abiding in booths, and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, on the face of the field are encamping; and I -- I go in unto my house to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife! -- thy life, and the life of thy soul -- if I do this thing.'

And it cometh to pass in the morning, that David writeth a letter unto Joab, and sendeth by the hand of Uriah;

and he writeth in the letter, saying, `Place ye Uriah over-against the front of the severest battle, and ye have turned back from after him, and he hath been smitten, and hath died.'

And it cometh to pass in Joab's watching of the city, that he appointeth Uriah unto the place where he knew that valiant men `are';

and the men of the city go out and fight with Joab, and there fall `some' of the people, of the servants of David; and there dieth also Uriah the Hittite.

And Joab sendeth and declareth to David all the matters of the war,

and commandeth the messenger, saying, `At thy finishing all the matters of the war to speak unto the king,

then, it hath been, if the king's fury ascend, and he hath said to thee, Wherefore did ye draw nigh unto the city to fight? did ye not know that they shoot from off the wall?

and the mourning passeth by, and David sendeth and gathereth her unto his house, and she is to him for a wife, and beareth to him a son; and the thing which David hath done is evil in the eyes of Jehovah.
field: 10012001
10
12
1
And Jehovah sendeth Nathan unto David, and he cometh unto him, and saith to him: `Two men have been in one city; One rich and one poor;
field: 10012002
10
12
2
The rich hath flocks and herds very many;
field: 10012003
10
12
3
And the poor one hath nothing, Except one little ewe-lamb, Which he hath bought, and keepeth alive, And it groweth up with him, And with his sons together; Of his morsel it eateth, And from his cup it drinketh, And in his bosom it lieth, And it is to him as a daughter;
field: 10012004
10
12
4
And there cometh a traveller to the rich man, And he spareth to take Of his own flock, and of his own herd, To prepare for the traveller Who hath come to him, And he taketh the ewe-lamb of the poor man, And prepareth it for the man Who hath come unto him.'
field: 10012005
10
12
5
And the anger of David burneth against the man exceedingly, and he saith unto Nathan, `Jehovah liveth, surely a son of death `is' the man who is doing this,
field: 10012006
10
12
6
and the ewe-lamb he doth repay fourfold, because that he hath done this thing, and because that he had no pity.'
field: 10012007
10
12
7
And Nathan saith unto David, `Thou `art' the man! Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, I anointed thee for king over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;
field: 10012008
10
12
8
and I give to thee the house of thy lord, and the wives of thy lord, into thy bosom, and I give to thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if little, then I add to thee such and such `things'.
field: 10012009
10
12

`Wherefore hast thou despised the word of Jehovah, to do the evil thing in His eyes? Uriah the Hittite thou hast smitten by the sword, and his wife thou hast taken to thee for a wife, and him thou hast slain by the sword of the Bene-Ammon.
field: 10012010
10
12
10
`And now, the sword doth not turn aside from thy house unto the age, because thou hast despised Me, and dost take the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be to thee for a wife;
field: 10012011
10
12
11
thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am raising up against thee evil, out of thy house, and have taken thy wives before thine eyes, and given to thy neighbour, and he hath lain with thy wives before the eyes of this sun;
field: 10012012
10
12
12
for thou hast done `it' in secret, and I do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.'
field: 10012013
10
12
13
And David saith unto Nathan, `I have sinned against Jehovah.' And Nathan saith unto David, `Also -- Jehovah hath caused thy sin to pass away; thou dost not die;
field: 10012014
10
12
14
only, because thou hast caused the enemies of Jehovah greatly to despise by this thing, also the son who is born to thee doth surely die.'
field: 10012015
10
12
15
And Nathan goeth unto his house, and Jehovah smiteth the lad, whom the wife of Uriah hath born to David, and it is incurable;
field: 10012016
10
12
16
and David seeketh God for the youth, and David keepeth a fast, and hath gone in and lodged, and lain on the earth.
field: 10012017
10
12
17
And the elders of his house rise against him, to raise him up from the earth, and he hath not been willing, nor hath he eaten with them bread;
field: 10012018
10
12
18
and it cometh to pass on the seventh day, that the lad dieth, and the servants of David fear to declare to him that the lad is dead, for they said, `Lo, in the lad being alive we spake unto him, and he did not hearken to our voice; and how do we say unto him, The lad is dead? -- then he hath done evil.'
field: 10012019
10
12
19
And David seeth that his servants are whispering, and David understandeth that the lad is dead, and David saith unto his servants, `Is the lad dead?' and they say, `Dead.'
field: 10012020
10
12
20
And David riseth from the earth, and doth bathe and anoint `himself', and changeth his raiment, and cometh in to the house of Jehovah, and boweth himself, and cometh unto his house, and asketh and they place for him bread, and he eateth.
field: 10012021
10
12
21
And his servants say unto him, `What `is' this thing thou hast done? because of the living lad thou hast fasted and dost weep, and when the lad is dead thou hast risen and dost eat bread.'
field: 10012022
10
12
22
And he saith, `While the lad is alive I have fasted, and weep, for I said, Who knoweth? -- Jehovah doth pity me, and the lad hath lived;
field: 10012023
10
12
23
and now, he hath died, why `is' this -- I fast? am I able to bring him back again? I am going unto him, and he doth not turn back unto me.'
field: 10012024
10
12
24
And David comforteth Bath-Sheba his wife, and goeth in unto her, and lieth with her, and she beareth a son, and he calleth his name Solomon; and Jehovah hath loved him,
field: 10012025
10
12
25
and sendeth by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and calleth his name Jedidiah, because of Jehovah.

And Joab fighteth against Rabbah of the Bene-Ammon, and captureth the royal city,
field: 10012027
10
12
27
and Joab sendeth messengers unto David, and saith, `I have fought against Rabbah -- also I have captured the city of waters;
field: 10012028
10
12
28
and now, gather the rest of the people, and encamp against the city, and capture it, lest I capture the city, and my name hath been called upon it.'

And David gathereth all the people, and goeth to Rabbah, and fighteth against it, and captureth it;

10
12
30
and he taketh the crown of their king from off his head, and its weight `is' a talent of gold, and precious stones, and it is on the head of David; and the spoil of the city he hath brought out, very much;
field: 10012031
10
12
31
and the people who `are' in it he hath brought out, and setteth to the saw, and to cutting instruments of iron, and to axes of iron, and hath caused them to pass over into the brick-kiln; and so he doth to all the cities of the Bene-Ammon; and David turneth back, and all the people, to Jerusalem.

And it cometh to pass afterwards that Absalom son of David hath a fair sister, and her name `is' Tamar, and Amnon son of David loveth her.
field: 10013002
10
13
2
And Amnon hath distress -- even to become sick, because of Tamar his sister, for she `is' a virgin, and it is hard in the eyes of Amnon to do anything to her.
field: 10013003
10
13
3
And Amnon hath a friend, and his name `is' Jonadab, son of Shimeah, David's brother, and Jonadab `is' a very wise man,
field: 10013004
10
13
4
and saith to him, `Wherefore `art' thou thus lean, O king's son, morning by morning? dost thou not declare to me?' And Amnon saith to him, `Tamar -- sister of Absalom my brother -- I am loving.'
field: 10013005
10
13
5
And Jonadab saith to him, `Lie down on thy couch, and feign thyself sick, and thy father hath come in to see thee, and thou hast said unto him, `Let, I pray thee, Tamar my sister come in and give me bread to eat; and she hath made the food before mine eyes so that I see `it', and have eaten from her hand.'
field: 10013006
10
13
6
And Amnon lieth down, and feigneth himself sick, and the king cometh in to see him, and Amnon saith unto the king, `Let, I pray thee, Tamar my sister come, and she maketh before mine eyes two cakes, and I eat from her hand.'
field: 10013007
10
13
7
And David sendeth unto Tamar, to the house, saying, `Go, I pray thee, to the house of Amnon thy brother, and make for him food.'
field: 10013008
10
13
8
And Tamar goeth to the house of Amnon her brother, and he is lying down, and she taketh the dough, and kneadeth, and maketh cakes before his eyes, and cooketh the cakes,
field: 10013009
10
13
9
and taketh the frying-pan, and poureth out before him, and he refuseth to eat, and Amnon saith, `Take ye out every one from me;' and they go out every one from him.
field: 10013010
10
13
10
And Amnon saith unto Tamar, `Bring the food into the inner chamber, and I eat from thy hand;' and Tamar taketh the cakes that she hath made, and bringeth in to Amnon her brother, into the inner chamber,
field: 10013011
10
13
11
and she bringeth nigh unto him to eat, and he layeth hold on her, and saith to her, `Come, lie with me, my sister.'
field: 10013012
10
13
12
And she saith to him, `Nay, my brother, do not humble me, for it is not done so in Israel; do not this folly.
field: 10013013
10
13
13
And I -- whither do I cause my reproach to go? and thou -- thou art as one of the fools in Israel; and now, speak, I pray thee, unto the king; for he doth not withhold me from thee.'
field: 10013014
10
13
14
And he hath not been willing to hearken to her voice, and is stronger than she, and humbleth her, and lieth with her.
field: 10013015
10
13
15
And Amnon hateth her -- a very great hatred -- that greater `is' the hatred with which he hath hated her than the love with which he loved her, and Amnon saith to her, `Rise, go.'
field: 10013016
10
13
16
And she saith to him, `Because of the circumstances this evil is greater than the other that thou hast done with me -- to send me away;' and he hath not been willing to hearken to her,
field: 10013017
10
13
17
and calleth his young man, his servant, and saith, `Send away, I pray thee, this one from me without, and bolt the door after her;'
field: 10013018
10
13
18
-- and upon her `is' a long coat, for such upper robes do daughters of the king who `are' virgins put on, -- and his servant taketh her out without, and hath bolted the door after her.
field: 10013019
10
13
19
And Tamar taketh ashes for her head, and the long coat that `is' on her she hath rent, and putteth her hand on her head, and goeth, going on and crying;
field: 10013020
10
13
20
and Absalom her brother saith unto her, `Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? and now, my sister, keep silent, he `is' thy brother; set not thy heart to this thing;' and Tamar dwelleth -- but desolate -- in the house of Absalom her brother.
field: 10013021
10
13
21
And king David hath heard all these things, and it is very displeasing to him;
field: 10013022
10
13
22
and Absalom hath not spoken with Amnon either evil or good, for Absalom is hating Amnon, because that he humbled Tamar his sister.
field: 10013023
10
13
23
And it cometh to pass, after two years of days, that Absalom hath shearers in Baal-Hazor, which `is' with Ephraim, and Absalom calleth for all the sons of the king.
field: 10013024
10
13
24
And Absalom cometh unto the king, and saith, `Lo, I pray thee, thy servant hath shearers, let the king go, I pray thee, and his servants, with thy servant.'
field: 10013025
10
13
25
And the king saith unto Absalom, `Nay, my son, let us not all go, I pray thee, and we are not too heavy on thee;' and he presseth on him, and he hath not been willing to go, and he blesseth him.
field: 10013026
10
13
26
And Absalom saith, `If not -- let, I pray thee, Amnon my brother go with us;' and the king saith to him, `Why doth he go with thee?'
field: 10013027
10
13
27
and Absalom urgeth on him, and he sendeth with him Amnon, and all the sons of the king.
field: 10013028
10
13
28
And Absalom commandeth his young men, saying, `See, I pray thee, when the heart of Amnon `is' glad with wine, and I have said unto you, Smite Amnon, that ye have put him to death; fear not; is it not because I have commanded you? be strong, yea, become sons of valour.'
field: 10013029
10
13
29
And the young men of Absalom do to Amnon as Absalom commanded, and rise do all the sons of the king, and they ride, each on his mule, and flee.
field: 10013030
10
13
30
And it cometh to pass -- they `are' in the way -- and the report hath come unto David, saying, `Absalom hath smitten all the sons of the king, and there is not left of them one;'
field: 10013031
10
13
31
and the king riseth, and rendeth his garments, and lieth on the earth, and all his servants are standing by `with' rent garments.
field: 10013032
10
13
32
And Jonadab son of Shimeah, David's brother, answereth and saith, `Let not my lord say, The whole of the young men, the sons of the king, they have put to death; for Amnon alone `is' dead, for by the command of Absalom it hath been appointed from the day of his humbling Tamar his sister;

33
and now, let not my lord the king lay unto his heart the word, saying, All the sons of the king have died, for Amnon alone `is' dead.'
field: 10013034
10

34
And Absalom fleeth, and the young man who is watching lifteth up his eyes and looketh, and lo, much people are coming by the way behind him, on the side of the hill.
field: 10013035
10
13
35
And Jonadab saith unto the king, `Lo, the sons of the king have come; as the word of thy servant, so it hath been.'
field: 10013036
10
13
36
And it cometh to pass at his finishing to speak, that lo, the sons of the king have come, and they lift up their voice, and weep, and also the king and all his servants have wept -- a very great weeping.
field: 10013037
10
13
37
And Absalom hath fled, and goeth unto Talmai, son of Ammihud, king of Geshur, and `David' mourneth for his son all the days.
field: 10013038
10
13
38
And Absalom hath fled, and goeth to Geshur, and is there three years;
field: 10013039
10
13
39
and `the soul of' king David determineth to go out unto Absalom, for he hath been comforted for Amnon, for `he is' dead.

And Joab son of Zeruial knoweth that the heart of the king `is' on Absalom,

10
14
2
and Joab sendeth to Tekoah, and taketh thence a wise woman, and saith unto her, `Feign thyself a mourner, I pray thee, and put on, I pray thee, garments of mourning, and anoint not thyself with oil, and thou hast been as a woman these many days mourning for the dead,
field: 10014003
10

and thou hast gone unto the king, and spoken unto him, according to this word;' and Joab putteth the words into her mouth.

And the woman of Tekoah speaketh unto the king, and falleth on her face to the earth, and doth obeisance, and saith, `Save, O king.'

And the king saith to her, `What -- to thee?' and she saith, `Truly a widow woman `am' I, and my husband dieth,

6
and thy maid-servant hath two sons; and they strive both of them in a field, and there is no deliverer between them, and the one smiteth the other, and putteth him to death;

10
14
7
and lo, the whole family hath risen against thy maid-servant, and say, Give up him who smiteth his brother, and we put him to death for the life of his brother whom he hath slain, and we destroy also the heir; and they have quenched my coal which is left -- so as not to set to my husband a name and remnant on the face of the ground.'

And the king saith unto the woman, `Go to thine house, and I give charge concerning thee.'

And the woman of Tekoah saith unto the king, `On me, my lord, O king, `is' the iniquity, and on the house of my father; and the king and his throne `are' innocent.'

11
And she saith, `Let, I pray thee, the king remember by Jehovah thy God, that the redeemer of blood add not to destroy, and they destroy not my son;' and he saith, `Jehovah liveth; if there doth fall of the hair of thy son to the earth.'
field: 10014012

And the woman saith, `Let, I pray thee, thy maid-servant speak unto my lord the king a word;' and he saith, `Speak.'

And the woman saith, `And why hast thou thought thus concerning the people of God? yea, the king is speaking this thing as a guilty one, in that the king hath not brought back his outcast;

`And now that I have come to speak unto the king my lord this word, `it is' because the people made me afraid, and thy maid-servant saith, Let me speak, I pray thee, unto the king; it may be the king doth do the word of his handmaid,

And the king saith, `Is the hand of Joab with thee in all this?'

And the king saith unto Joab, `Lo, I pray thee, thou hast done this thing; and go, bring back the young man Absalom.'

And Joab falleth on his face to the earth, and doth obeisance, and blesseth the king, and Joab saith, `To-day hath thy servant known that I have found grace in thine eyes, my lord, O king, in that the king hath done the word of his servant.'

and the king saith, `Let him turn round unto his house, and my face he doth not see.' And Absalom turneth round unto his house, and the face of the king he hath not seen.

And like Absalom there was no man `so' fair in all Israel, to praise greatly; from the sole of his foot even unto his crown there was no blemish in him;

26
and in his polling his head -- and it hath been at the end of year by year that he polleth `it', for it `is' heavy on him, and he hath polled it -- he hath even weighed out the hair of his head -- two hundred shekels by the king's weight.

And there are born to Absalom three sons, and one daughter, and her name `is' Tamar; she was a woman of a fair appearance.

And Absalom dwelleth in Jerusalem two years of days, and the face of the king he hath not seen;

And he saith unto his servants, `See, the portion of Joab `is' by the side of mine, and he hath barley there; go, and burn it with fire;' and the servants of Absalom burn the portion with fire.

And Joab riseth and cometh unto Absalom in the house, and saith unto him, `Why have thy servants burned the portion that I have with fire?'

And Absalom saith unto Joab, `Lo, I sent unto thee, saying, Come hither, and I send thee unto the king to say, Why have I come in from Geshur? -- good for me while I `am' there -- and now, let me see the king's face, and if there is in me iniquity then thou hast put me to death.'

And Joab cometh unto the king, and declareth `it' to him, and he calleth unto Absalom, and he cometh unto the king, and boweth himself to him, on his face, to the earth, before the king, and the king giveth a kiss to Absalom.

And it cometh to pass afterwards, that Absalom prepareth for himself a chariot, and horses, and fifty men are running before him;

and Absalom hath risen early, and stood by the side of the way of the gate, and it cometh to pass, every man who hath a pleading to come unto the king for judgment, that Absalom calleth unto him, and saith, `Of what city `art' thou?' and he saith, `Of one of the tribes of Israel `is' thy servant.'

And Absalom saith unto him, `See, thy matters `are' good and straightforward -- and there is none hearkening to thee from the king.'

And Absalom saith, `Who doth make me a judge in the land, that unto me doth come every man who hath a plea and judgment? -- then I have declared him righteous.'

And it hath come to pass, in the drawing nearing of any one to bow himself to him, that he hath put forth his hand, and laid hold on him, and given a kiss to him;

And the king saith to him, `Go in peace;' and he riseth and goeth to Hebron,

10
15
10
and Absalom sendeth spies through all the tribes of Israel, saying, `At your hearing the voice of the trumpet, then ye have said, Absalom hath reigned in Hebron.'
field: 10015011
10
15
11
And with Absalom have gone two hundred men, out of Jerusalem, invited ones, and they are going in their simplicity, and have not known anything;
field: 10015012
10
15
12
and Absalom sendeth Ahithophel the Gilonite, a counsellor of David, out of his city, out of Gilo, in his sacrificing sacrifices; and the conspiracy is strong, and the people are going and increasing with Absalom.
field: 10015013
10
15
13
And he who is declaring tidings cometh in unto David, saying, `The heart of the men of Israel hath been after Absalom.'
field: 10015014
10
15
14
And David saith to all his servants who `are' with him in Jerusalem, `Rise, and we flee, for we have no escape from the face of Absalom; haste to go, lest he hasten, and have overtaken us, and forced on us evil, and smitten the city by the mouth of the sword.'
field: 10015015
10
15
15
And the servants of the king say unto the king, `According to all that my lord the king chooseth -- lo, thy servants `do'.'
field: 10015016
10
15
16
And the king goeth out, and all his household at his feet, and the king leaveth ten women -- concubines -- to keep the house.
field: 10015017
10
15
17
And the king goeth out, and all the people at his feet, and they stand still at the farthest off house.
field: 10015018
10
15
18
And all his servants are passing on at his side, and all the Cherethite, and all the Pelethite, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who came at his feet from Gath, are passing on at the front of the king.
field: 10015019
10
15
19
And the king saith unto Ittai the Gittite, `Why dost thou go -- thou also -- with us? turn back -- and abide with the king, for thou `art' a stranger, and also an exile thou -- to thy place.
field: 10015020
10
15
20
Yesterday `is' thy coming in, and to-day I move thee to go with us, and I am going on that which I am going! -- turn back, and take back thy brethren with thee, -- kindness and truth.'
field: 10015021
10
15
21
And Ittai answereth the king and saith, `Jehovah liveth, and my lord the king liveth, surely in the place where my lord the king is -- if for death, if for life, surely there is thy servant.'
field: 10015022
10
15
22
And David saith unto Ittai, `Go and pass over;' and Ittai the Gittite passeth over, and all his men, and all the infants who `are' with him.
field: 10015023
10
15
23
And all the land are weeping -- a great voice, and all the people are passing over; and the king is passing over through the brook Kidron, and all the people are passing over on the front of the way of the wilderness;
field: 10015024
10
15
24
and lo, also Zadok, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God, and they make the ark of God firm, and Abiathar goeth up, till the completion of all the people to pass over out of the city.
field: 10015025
10
15
25
And the king saith to Zadok, `Take back the ark of God to the city; if I find grace in the eyes of Jehovah, then He hath brought me back, and shewn me it and His habitation;
field: 10015026
10
15
26
and if thus He say, I have not delighted in thee; here `am' I, He doth to me as `is' good in His eyes.'
field: 10015027
10
15
27
And the king saith unto Zadok the priest, `Art thou a seer? turn back to the city in peace, and Ahimaaz thy son, and Jonathan son of Abiathar, your two sons with you;
field: 10015028
10
15
28
see ye, I am tarrying in the plains of the wilderness till the coming in of a word from you to declare to me.'
field: 10015029
10
15
29
And Zadok taketh back -- and Abiathar -- the ark of God to Jerusalem, and they abide there.
field: 10015030
10
15
30
And David is going up in the ascent of the olives, going up and weeping, and he hath the head covered, and he is going barefooted, and all the people who `are' with him have covered each his head, and have gone up, going up and weeping;
field: 10015031
10
15
31
and David declared, saying, `Ahithophel `is' among the conspirators with Absalom;' and David saith, `Make foolish, I pray Thee, the counsel of Ahithophel, O Jehovah.'
field: 10015032
10
15
32
And it cometh to pass, David hath come unto the top, where he boweth himself to God, and lo, to meet him `is' Hushai the Archite, his coat rent, and earth on his head;
field: 10015033
10
15
33
and David saith to him, `If thou hast passed on with me then thou hast been on me for a burden,
field: 10015034
10
15
34
and if to the city thou dost turn back, and hast said to Absalom, Thy servant I am, O king; servant of thy father I `am' also hitherto, and now, I `am' also thy servant; then thou hast made void for me the counsel of Ahithophel;
field: 10015035
10
15
35
and are there not with thee there Zadok and Abiathar the priests? and it hath been, the whole of the matter that thou hearest from the house of the king thou dost declare to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests.
field: 10015036
10
15
36
Lo, there with them `are' their two sons, Ahimaaz to Zadok, and Jonathan to Abiathar, and ye have sent by their hand unto me anything that ye hear.'
field: 10015037

15
37
And Hushai, David's friend, cometh in to the city, and Absalom cometh in to Jerusalem.

And David hath passed on a little from the top, and lo, Ziba, servant of Mephibosheth -- to meet him, and a couple of asses saddled, and upon them two hundred loaves, and a hundred bunches of raisins, and a hundred `of' summer-fruit, and a bottle of wine.
field: 10016002
10
16
2
And the king saith unto Ziba, `What -- these to thee?' and Ziba saith, `The asses for the household of the king to ride on, and the bread and the summer-fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine for the wearied to drink in the wilderness.'
field: 10016003
10
16
3
And the king saith, `And where `is' the son of thy lord?' and Ziba saith unto the king, `Lo, he is abiding in Jerusalem, for he said, To-day do the house of Israel give back to me the kingdom of my father.'
field: 10016004
10
16
4
And the king saith to Ziba, `Lo, thine `are' all that Mephibosheth hath;' and Ziba saith, `I have bowed myself -- I find grace in thine eyes, my lord, O king.'
field: 10016005
10
16
5
And king David hath come in unto Bahurim, and lo, thence a man is coming out, of the family of the house of Saul, and his name `is' Shimei, son of Gera, he cometh out, coming out and reviling;
field: 10016006
10
16
6
and he stoneth David with stones, and all the servants of king David, and all the people, and all the mighty men on his right and on his left.
field: 10016007
10
16
7
And thus said Shimei in his reviling, `Go out, go out, O man of blood, and man of worthlessness!
field: 10016008
10
16
8
Jehovah hath turned back on thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned, and Jehovah doth give the kingdom in to the hand of Absalom thy son; and lo, thou `art' in thine evil, for a man of blood thou `art'.'
field: 10016009
10
16
9
And Abishai son of Zeruiah saith unto the king, `Why doth this dead dog revile my lord the king? let me pass over, I pray thee, and I turn aside his head.'
field: 10016010
10
16
10
And the king saith, `What -- to me and to you, O sons of Zeruiah? for -- let him revile; even because Jehovah hath said to him, Revile David; and who saith, Wherefore hast Thou done so?'
field: 10016011
10
16
11
And David saith unto Abishai, and unto all his servants, `Lo, my son who came out of my bowels is seeking my life, and also surely now the Benjamite; leave him alone, and let him revile, for Jehovah hath said `so' to him;
field: 10016012
10
16
12
it may be Jehovah doth look on mine affliction, and Jehovah hath turned back to me good for his reviling this day.'
field: 10016013
10
16
13
And David goeth with his men in the way, and Shimei is going at the side of the hill over-against him, going on, and he revileth, and stoneth with stones over-against him, and hath dusted with dust.
field: 10016014
10
16
14
And the king cometh in, and all the people who `are' with him, wearied, and they are refreshed there.
field: 10016015
10
16
15
And Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, have come in to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him,
field: 10016016
10
16
16
and it cometh to pass, when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, hath come unto Absalom, that Hushai saith unto Absalom, `Let the king live! let the king live!'
field: 10016017
10
16
17
And Absalom saith unto Hushai, `This thy kindness with thy friend! why hast thou not gone with thy friend?'
field: 10016018
10
16
18
And Hushai saith unto Absalom, `Nay, for he whom Jehovah hath chosen, and this people, even all the men of Israel, his I am, and with him I abide;
field: 10016019
10
16
19
and secondly, for whom do I labour? is it not before his son? as I served before thy father so am I before thee.'
field: 10016020
10
16
20
And Absalom saith unto Ahithophel, `Give for you counsel what we do.'
field: 10016021
10
16
21
And Ahithophel saith unto Absalom, `Go in unto the concubines of thy father, whom he left to keep the house, and all Israel hath heard that thou hast been abhorred by thy father, and the hands of all who `are' with thee have been strong.'
field: 10016022
10
16
22
And they spread out for Absalom the tent on the roof, and Absalom goeth in unto the concubines of his father before the eyes of all Israel.
field: 10016023
10
16
23
And the counsel of Ahithophel which he counselled in those days `is' as `when' one inquireth at the word of God; so `is' all the counsel of Ahithophel both to David and to Absalom.
field: 10017001
10
17
1
And Ahithophel said unto Absalom, `Let me choose, I pray thee, twelve thousand men, and I arise and pursue after David to-night,
field: 10017002
10
17
2
and come upon him, and he weary and feeble-handed, and I have caused him to tremble, and all the people have fled who `are' with him, and I have smitten the king by himself,
field: 10017003
10
17
3
and I bring back all the people unto thee -- as the turning back of the whole `is' the man whom thou art seeking -- all the people are peace.
field: 10017004
10
17
4
And the thing is right in the eyes of Absalom, and in the eyes of all the elders of Israel.
field: 10017005
10
17
5
And Absalom saith, `Call, I pray thee, also for Hushai the Archite, and we hear what `is' in his mouth -- even he.'
field: 10017006
10
17
6
And Hushai cometh in unto Absalom, and Absalom speaketh unto him, saying, `According to this word hath Ahithophel spoken; do we do his word? if not, thou -- speak thou.'
field: 10017007
10
17
7
And Hushai saith unto Absalom, `Not good `is' the counsel that Ahithophel hath counselled at this time.'
field: 10017008
10
17
8
And Hushai saith, `Thou hast known thy father and his men, that they `are' heroes, and they are bitter in soul as a bereaved bear in a field, and thy father `is' a man of war, and doth not lodge with the people;
field: 10017009
10
17
9
lo, now, he is hidden in one of the pits, or in one of the places, and it hath been, at the falling among them at the commencement, that the hearer hath heard, and said, There hath been a slaughter among the people who `are' after Absalom;
field: 10017010
10
17
10
and he also, the son of valour, whose heart `is' as the heart of the lion, doth utterly melt, for all Israel doth know that thy father is a hero, and sons of valour `are' those with him.
field: 10017011
10
17
11
`So that I have counselled: Let all Israel be diligently gathered unto thee, from Dan even unto Beer-Sheba, as the sand that `is' by the sea for multitude, and thou thyself art going in the midst;
field: 10017012
10
17
12
and we have come in unto him in one of the places where he is found, and we `are' upon him as the dew falleth on the ground, and there hath not been left of him and of all the men who `are' with him even one.
field: 10017013
10
17
13
And if unto a city he is gathered, then they have caused all Israel to bear unto that city ropes, and we have drawn it unto the brook till that there hath not been found there even a stone.'
field: 10017014
10
17
14
And Absalom saith -- and all the men of Israel -- `Better `is' the counsel of Hushai the Archite than the counsel of Ahithophel;' and Jehovah willed to make void the good counsel of Ahithophel for the sake of Jehovah's bringing unto Absalom the evil.
field: 10017015
10
17
15
And Hushai saith unto Zadok and unto Abiathar the priests, `Thus and thus hath Ahithophel counselled Absalom and the elders of Israel, and thus and thus I have counselled;
field: 10017016
10
17
16
and now, send hastily, and declare to David, saying, Lodge not to-night in the plains of the wilderness, and also, certainly pass over, lest there be a swallowing up of the king and of all the people who are with him.'
field: 10017017
10
17
17
And Jonathan and Ahimaaz are standing at En-Rogel, and the maid-servant hath gone and declared to them -- and they go and have declared `it' to king David -- for they are not able to be seen to go in to the city.
field: 10017018
10
17
18
And a youth seeth them, and declareth to Absalom; and they go on both of them hastily, and come in unto the house of a man in Bahurim, and he hath a well in his court, and they go down there,
field: 10017019
10
17
19
and the woman taketh and spreadeth the covering over the face of the well, and spreadeth on it the ground corn, and the thing hath not been known.
field: 10017020
10
17
20
And the servants of Absalom come in unto the woman to the house, and say, `Where `are' Ahimaaz and Jonathan?' and the woman saith to them, `They passed over the brook of water;' and they seek, and have not found, and turn back to Jerusalem.
field: 10017021
10
17
21
And it cometh to pass, after their going on, that they come up out of the well, and go and declare to king David, and say unto David, `Rise ye, and pass over hastily the waters, for thus hath Ahithophel counselled against you.'
field: 10017022
10
17
22
And David riseth, and all the people who `are' with him, and they pass over the Jordan, till the light of the morning, till one hath not been lacking who hath not passed over the Jordan.
field: 10017023
10
17
23
And Ahithophel hath seen that his counsel was not done, and he saddleth the ass, and riseth and goeth unto his house, unto his city, and giveth charge unto his household, and strangleth himself, and dieth, and he is buried in the burying-place of his father.
field: 10017024
10

And David came to Mahanaim, and Absalom passed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him;

and Amasa hath Absalom set instead of Joab over the host, and Amasa `is' a man's son whose name is Ithra the Israelite who hath gone in unto Abigail, daughter of Nahash, sister of Zeruiah, mother of Joab;

and Israel encampeth with Absalom `in' the land of Gilead.

And it cometh to pass at the coming in of David to Mahanaim, that Shobi, son of Nahash, from Rabbah of the Bene-Ammon, and Machir son of Ammiel, from Lo-Debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite, from Rogelim,

and honey, and butter, and sheep, and cheese of kine, have brought nigh for David, and for the people who `are' with him to eat, for they said, `Thy people `is' hungry, and weary, and thirsty, in the wilderness.'
field: 10018001
10
18
1
And David inspecteth the people who `are' with him, and setteth over them heads of thousands and heads of hundreds,
field: 10018002
10
18
2
and David sendeth the third of the people by the hand of Joab, and the third by the hand of Abishai, son of Zeruiah, brother of Joab, and the third by the hand of Ittai the Gittite, and the king saith unto the people, `I certainly go out -- I also -- with you.'
field: 10018003
10
18
3
And the people say, `Thou dost not go out, for if we utterly flee, they do not set `their' heart upon us; and if half of us die, they do not set `their' heart unto us -- for now like us `are' ten thousand; and now, better that thou be to us from the city for an helper.'
field: 10018004
10
18
4
And the king saith unto them, `That which is good in your eyes I do;' and the king standeth at the side of the gate, and all the people have gone out by hundreds and by thousands,

10
18
5
and the king chargeth Joab, and Abishai, and Ittai, saying, `Gently -- for me, for the youth, for Absalom;' and all the people heard in the king's charging all the heads concerning Absalom.
field: 10018006
10
18
6
And the people goeth out into the field to meet Israel, and the battle is in a forest of Ephraim;

7
and smitten there are the people of Israel before the servants of David, and the smiting there is great on that day -- twenty thousand;

and the battle is there scattered over the face of all the land, and the forest multiplieth to devour among the people more than those whom the sword hath devoured in that day.
field: 10018009
10

9
And Absalom meeteth before the servants of David, and Absalom is riding on the mule, and the mule cometh in under an entangled bough of the great oak, and his head taketh hold on the oak, and he is placed between the heavens and the earth, and the mule that `is' under him hath passed on.
field: 10018010
10

10
And one man seeth, and declareth to Joab, and saith, `Lo, I saw Absalom hanged in an oak.'
field: 10018011
10
18
11
And Joab saith to the man who is declaring `it' to him, `And lo, thou hast seen -- and wherefore didst thou not smite him there to the earth -- and on me to give to thee ten silverlings and one girdle?'
field: 10018012
10
18
12
And the man saith unto Joab, `Yea, though I am weighing on my hand a thousand silverlings, I do not put forth my hand unto the son of the king; for in our ears hath the king charged thee, and Abishai, and Ittai, saying, Observe ye who `is' against the youth -- against Absalom;

18
13
or I had done against my soul a vain thing, and no matter is hid from the king, and thou -- thou dost station thyself over-against.'

14
And Joab saith, `Not right -- I tarry before thee;' and he taketh three darts in his hand, and striketh them into the heart of Absalom, while he `is' alive, in the midst of the oak.
field: 10018015
10
18
15
And they go round -- ten youths bearing weapons of Joab -- and smite Absalom, and put him to death.
field: 10018016
10
18
16
And Joab bloweth with a trumpet, and the people turneth back from pursuing after Israel, for Joab hath kept back the people;

10
18
17
and they take Absalom and cast him in the forest unto the great pit, and set up over him a very great heap of stones, and all Israel have fled -- each to his tent.
field: 10018018
10
18
18
And Absalom hath taken, and setteth up for himself in his life, the standing-pillar that `is' in the king's valley, for he said, `I have no son to cause my name to be remembered;' and he calleth the standing-pillar by his own name, and it is called `The monument of Absalom' unto this day.

20
and Joab saith to him, `Thou art not a man of tidings this day, but thou hast borne tidings on another day, and this day thou dost not bear tidings, because the king's son `is' dead.'

And Joab saith to Cushi, `Go, declare to the king that which thou hast seen;' and Cushi boweth himself to Joab, and runneth.

And Ahimaaz son of Zadok addeth again, and saith unto Joab, `And whatever it be, let me run, I pray thee, I also, after the Cushite.' And Joab saith, `Why `is' this -- thou art running, my son, and for thee there are no tidings found?' --

`And, whatever it be, `said he,' let me run.' And he saith to him, `Run;' and Ahimaaz runneth the way of the circuit, and passeth by the Cushite.

And David is sitting between the two gates, and the watchman goeth unto the roof of the gate, unto the wall, and lifteth up his eyes, and looketh, and lo, a man running by himself.

And the watchman calleth, and declareth to the king, and the king saith, `If by himself, tidings `are' in his mouth;' and he cometh, coming on and drawing near.

And the watchman seeth another man running, and the watchman calleth unto the gatekeeper, and saith, `Lo, a man running by himself;' and the king saith, `Also this one is bearing tidings.'

And the watchman saith, `I see the running of the first as the running of Ahimaaz son of Zadok.' And the king saith, `This `is' a good man, and with good tidings he cometh.'

And Ahimaaz calleth and saith unto the king, `Peace;' and he boweth himself to the king, on his face, to the earth, and saith, `Blessed `is' Jehovah thy God who hath shut up the men who lifted up their hand against my lord the king.'

And the king saith, `Peace to the youth -- to Absalom?' And Ahimaaz saith, `I saw the great multitude, at the sending away of the servant of the king, even thy servant `by' Joab, and I have not known what `it is'.'

And lo, the Cushite hath come, and the Cushite saith, `Let tidings be proclaimed, my lord, O king; for Jehovah hath delivered thee to-day out of the hand of all those rising up against thee.'
field: 10018032
10
18
32
And the king saith unto the Cushite, `Peace to the youth -- to Absalom?' And the Cushite saith, `Let them be -- as the youth -- the enemies of my lord the king, and all who have risen up against thee for evil.'
field: 10018033
10
18
33
And the king trembleth, and goeth up on the upper chamber of the gate, and weepeth, and thus he hath said in his going, `My son! Absalom my son; my son Absalom; oh that I had died for thee, Absalom, my son, my son.'
field: 10019001
10
19
1
And it is declared to Joab, `Lo, the king is weeping and mourning for Absalom;'
field: 10019002
10
19
2
and the salvation on that day becometh mourning to all the people, for the people hath heard on that day, saying, `The king hath been grieved for his son.'
field: 10019003
10
19
3
And the people stealeth away, on that day, to go in to the city, as the people steal away, who are ashamed, in their fleeing in battle;
field: 10019004
10
19
4
and the king hath covered his face, yea, the king crieth -- a loud voice -- `My son Absalom, Absalom, my son, my son.'
field: 10019005
10
19
5
And Joab cometh in unto the king to the house, and saith, `Thou hast put to shame to-day the faces of all thy servants, those delivering thy life to-day, and the life of thy sons, and of thy daughters, and the life of thy wives, and the life of thy concubines,
field: 10019006
10
19
6
to love thine enemies, and to hate those loving thee, for thou hast declared to-day that thou hast no princes and servants, for I have known to-day that if Absalom `were' alive, and all of us to-day dead, that then it were right in thine eyes.
field: 10019007
10
19
7
`And now, rise, go out and speak unto the heart of thy servants, for by Jehovah I have sworn, that -- thou art not going out -- there doth not lodge a man with thee to-night; and this `is' worse for thee than all the evil that hath come upon thee from thy youth till now.'
field: 10019008
10
19
8
And the king riseth, and sitteth in the gate, and to all the people they have declared, saying, `Lo, the king is sitting in the gate;' and all the people come in before the king, and Israel hath fled, each to his tents.
field: 10019009
10
19
9
And it cometh to pass, all the people are contending through all the tribes of Israel, saying, `The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, yea, he himself delivered us out of the hand of the Philistines, and now he hath fled out of the land because of Absalom,
field: 10019010
10

10
and Absalom whom we anointed over us `is' dead in battle, and now, why are ye silent -- to bring back the king?'
field: 10019011
10
19
11
And king David sent unto Zadok and unto Abiathar the priests, saying, `Speak ye unto the elders of Judah, saying, Why are ye last to bring back the king unto his house? (and the word of all Israel hath come unto the king, unto his house;)

12
my brethren ye `are', my bone and my flesh ye `are', and why are ye last to bring back the king?

And to Amasa say ye, Art not thou my bone and my flesh? Thus doth God do to me, and thus He doth add, if thou art not head of the host before me all the days instead of Joab.'
field: 10019014
10

And he inclineth the heart of all the men of Judah as one man, and they send unto the king, `Turn back, thou, and all thy servants.'

10

15
And the king turneth back, and cometh in unto the Jordan, and Judah hath come to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to bring the king over the Jordan,

10
19
16
and Shimei son of Gera, the Benjamite, who `is' from Bahurim, hasteth, and cometh down with the men of Judah, to meet king David,

and a thousand men `are' with him from Benjamin, and Ziba servant of the house of Saul, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him, and they have gone prosperously over the Jordan before the king.

And passed over hath the ferry-boat to carry over the household of the king, and to do that which `is' good in his eyes, and Shimei son of Gera hath fallen before the king in his passing over into Jordan,

10
19
19
and saith unto the king, `Let not my lord impute to me iniquity; neither do thou remember that which thy servant did perversely in the day that my lord the king went out from Jerusalem, -- for the king to set `it' unto his heart;

for thy servant hath known that I have sinned; and lo, I have come to-day, first of all the house of Joseph, to go down to meet my lord the king.'

And Abishai son of Zeruiah answereth and saith, `For this is not Shimei put to death -- because he reviled the anointed of Jehovah?'

10
19
22
And David saith, `What -- to me and to you, O sons of Zeruiah, that ye are to me to-day for an adversary? to-day is any man put to death in Israel? for have I not known that to-day I `am' king over Israel?'
field: 10019023

And the king saith unto Shimei, `Thou dost not die;' and the king sweareth to him.

And Mephibosheth son of Saul hath come down to meet the king -- and he prepared not his feet, nor did he prepare his upper lip, yea, his garments he washed not, even from the day of the going away of the king, till the day that he came in peace --

and it cometh to pass, when he hath come to Jerusalem to meet the king, that the king saith to him, `Why didst thou not go with me, Mephibosheth?'

26
And he saith, `My lord, O king, my servant deceived me, for thy servant said, I saddle for me the ass, and ride on it, and go with the king, for thy servant `is' lame;

and he uttereth slander against thy servant unto my lord the king, and my lord the king `is' as a messenger of God; and do thou that which is good in thine eyes,
field: 10019028
10
19
28
for all the house of my father have been nothing except men of death before my lord the king, and thou dost set thy servant among those eating at thy table, and what right have I any more -- even to cry any more unto the king?'

And the king saith to him, `Why dost thou speak any more of thy matters? I have said, Thou and Ziba -- share ye the field.'

And Barzillai the Gileadite hath gone down from Rogelim, and passeth over the Jordan with the king, to send him away over the Jordan;

and Barzillai `is' very aged, a son of eighty years, and he hath sustained the king in his abiding in Mahanaim, for he `is' a very great man;

and the king saith unto Barzillai, `Pass thou over with me, and I have sustained thee with me in Jerusalem.'

And Barzillai saith unto the king, `How many `are' the days of the years of my life, that I go up with the king to Jerusalem?

19
35
A son of eighty years I `am' to-day; do I know between good and evil? doth thy servant taste that which I am eating, and that which I drink? do I hearken any more to the voice of singers and songstresses? and why is thy servant any more for a burden unto my lord the king?
field: 10019036
10

36
As a little thing, thy servant doth pass over the Jordan with the king, and why doth the king recompense me this recompense?

37
Let, I pray thee, thy servant turn back again, and I die in mine own city, near the burying-place of my father and of my mother, -- and lo, thy servant Chimham, let him pass over with my lord the king, and do thou to him that which `is' good in thine eyes.'

And the king saith, `With me doth Chimham go over, and I do to him that which `is' good in thine eyes, yea, all that thou dost fix on me I do to thee.'

And all the people pass over the Jordan, and the king hath passed over, and the king giveth a kiss to Barzillai, and blesseth him, and he turneth back to his place.

And the king passeth over to Gilgal, and Chimham hath passed over with him, and all the people of Judah, and they bring over the king, and also the half of the people of Israel.

10
19
41
And, lo, all the men of Israel are coming unto the king, and they say unto the king, `Wherefore have they stolen thee -- our brethren, the men of Judah?' (and they bring the king and his household over the Jordan, and all the men of David with him).
field: 10019042
10
19
42
And all the men of Judah answer against the men of Israel, `Because the king `is' near unto us, and why `is' this -- ye are displeased about this matter? have we at all eaten of the king's `substance?' a gift hath he lifted up to us?'
field: 10019043
10
19
43
And the men of Israel answer the men of Judah, and say, `Ten parts we have in the king, and also in David more than you; and wherefore have ye lightly esteemed us, that our word hath not been first to bring back our king?' And the word of the men of Judah is sharper than the word of the men of Israel.

And there hath been called there a man of worthlessness, and his name `is' Sheba, son of Bichri, a Benjamite, and he bloweth with a trumpet, and saith, `We have no portion in David, and we have no inheritance in the son of Jesse; each to his tents, O Israel.'
field: 10020002
10

And every man of Israel goeth up from after David, after Sheba son of Bichri, and the men of Judah have cleaved to their king, from the Jordan even unto Jerusalem.

And David cometh in unto his house at Jerusalem, and the king taketh the ten women-concubines -- whom he had left to keep the house, and putteth them in a house of ward, and sustaineth them, and unto them he hath not gone in, and they are shut up unto the day of their death, in widowhood living.

And the king saith unto Amasa, `Call for me the men of Judah `in' three days, and thou, stand here,'

5
and Amasa goeth to call Judah, and tarrieth beyond the appointed time that he had appointed him;

and David saith unto Abishai, `Now doth Sheba son of Bichri do evil to us more than Absalom; thou, take the servants of thy lord, and pursue after him, lest he have found for himself fenced cities, and delivered himself `from' our eye.'

And the men of Joab go out after him, and the Cherethite, and the Pelethite, and all the mighty men, and they go out from Jerusalem to pursue after Sheba son of Bichri;

they `are' near the great stone that `is' in Gibeon, and Amasa hath gone before them, and Joab `is' girded; his long robe he hath put on him, and upon it a girdle -- a sword `is' fastened upon his loins in its sheath; and he hath gone out, and it falleth.
field: 10020009
10

And Joab saith to Amasa, `Art thou `in' peace, my brother?' and the right hand of Joab layeth hold on the beard of Amasa to give a kiss to him;

10
20
10
and Amasa hath not been watchful of the sword that `is' in the hand of Joab, and he smiteth him with it unto the fifth `rib', and sheddeth out his bowels to the earth, and he hath not repeated `it' to him, and he dieth; and Joab and Abishai his brother have pursued after Sheba son of Bichri.
field: 10020011

And a man hath stood by him, of the young men of Joab, and saith, `He who hath delight in Joab, and he who `is' for David -- after Joab!'

And Amasa is rolling himself in blood, in the midst of the highway, and the man seeth that all the people have stood still, and he bringeth round Amasa out of the highway to the field, and casteth over him a garment, when he hath seen that every one who hath come by him -- hath stood still.
field: 10020013

When he hath been removed out of the highway, every man hath passed on after Joab, to pursue after Sheba son of Bichri.

14
And he passeth over through all the tribes of Israel to Abel, and to Beth-Maachah, and to all the Berites, and they are assembled, and go in also after him,
field: 10020015
10
20
15
and they go in and lay siege against him, in Abel of Beth-Maachah, and cast up a mount against the city, and it standeth in a trench, and all the people who are `are' with Joab are destroying, to cause the wall to fall.
field: 10020016

16
And a wise woman calleth out of the city, `Hear, hear; say, I pray you, unto Joab, Come near hither, and I speak unto thee.'
field: 10020017
10
20
17
And he cometh near unto her, and the woman saith, `Art thou Joab?' and he saith, `I `am'.' And she saith to him, `Hear the words of thy handmaid;' and he saith, `I am hearing.'

and she speaketh, saying, `They spake often in former times, saying, Let them diligently ask at Abel, and so they finished.

I `am' of the peaceable -- faithful ones of Israel; thou art seeking to destroy a city, and a mother in Israel; why dost thou swallow up the inheritance of Jehovah?

20
And Joab answereth and saith, `Far be it -- far be it from me; I do not swallow up nor destroy.
field: 10020021
10
20
21
The matter `is' not so; for a man of the hill-country of Ephraim -- Sheba son of Bichri his name -- hath lifted up his hand against the king, against David; give ye up him by himself, and I go away from the city.' And the woman saith unto Joab, `Lo, his head is cast unto thee over the wall.'
field: 10020022
10
20
22
And the woman cometh unto all the people in her wisdom, and they cut off the head of Sheba son of Bichri, and cast `it' unto Joab, and he bloweth with a trumpet, and they are scattered from the city, each to his tents, and Joab hath turned back to Jerusalem unto the king.

And the king calleth for the Gibeonites, and saith unto them -- as to the Gibeonites, they `are' not of the sons of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorite, and the sons of Israel had sworn to them, and Saul seeketh to smite them in his zeal for the sons of Israel and Judah --

yea, David saith unto the Gibeonites, `What do I do for you? and with what do I make atonement? and bless ye the inheritance of Jehovah.'

And the Gibeonites say to him, `We have no silver and gold by Saul and by his house, and we have no man to put to death in Israel;' and he saith, `What ye are saying I do to you.'

let there be given to us seven men of his sons, and we have hanged them before Jehovah, in the height of Saul, the chosen of Jehovah.' And the king saith, `I do give;'

And Rizpah daughter of Aiah taketh the sackcloth, and stretcheth it out for herself on the rock, from the commencement of harvest till water hath been poured out upon them from the heavens, and hath not suffered a fowl of the heavens to rest upon them by day, or the beast of the field by night.

And it is declared to David that which Rizpah daughter of Aiah, concubine of Saul, hath done,

21
12
and David goeth and taketh the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, from the possessors of Jabesh-Gilead, who had stolen them from the broad place of Beth-Shan, where the Philistines hanged them, in the day of the Philistines smiting Saul in Gilboa;

and bury the bones of Saul and of Jonathan his son in the land of Benjamin, in Zelah, in the burying-place of Kish his father, and do all that the king commanded, and God is entreated for the land afterwards.

And again have the Philistines war with Israel, and David goeth down, and his servants with him, and they fight with the Philistines; and David is weary,

For all His judgments `are' before me, As to His statutes, I turn not from them.

Making my feet like hinds, And on my high places causeth me to stand,
field: 10022035
10

Teaching my hands for battle, And brought down was a bow of brass by mine arms,

36
And Thou givest to me the shield of Thy salvation, And Thy lowliness maketh me great.

10
22
37
Thou enlargest my step under me, And mine ankles have not slidden.

38
I pursue mine enemies and destroy them, And I turn not till they are consumed.

And I consume them, and smite them, And they rise not, and fall under my feet.

And Thou girdest me `with' strength for battle, Thou causest my withstanders to bow under me.

And mine enemies -- Thou givest to me the neck, Those hating me -- and I cut them off.

They look, and there is no saviour; Unto Jehovah, and He hath not answered them.

Sons of a stranger feign obedience to me, At the hearing of the ear they hearken to me.

God -- who is giving vengeance to me, And bringing down peoples under me,

field: 10023010
10
23
10
he hath arisen, and smiteth among the Philistines till that his hand hath been weary, and his hand cleaveth unto the sword, and Jehovah worketh a great salvation on that day, and the people turn back after him only to strip off.

And after him `is' Shammah son of Agee the Hararite, and the Philistines are gathered into a company, and there is there a portion of the field full of lentiles, and the people hath fled from the presence of the Philistines,

10
23
16
And the three mighty ones cleave through the camp of the Philistines, and draw water out of the well of Beth-Lehem, which `is' by the gate, and take `it' up, and bring in unto David; and he was not willing to drink it, and poureth it out to Jehovah,
field: 10023017
10

17
and saith, `Far be it from me, O Jehovah, to do this; is it the blood of the men who are going with their lives?' and he was not willing to drink it; these `things' did the three mighty ones.

And Benaiah cometh in unto the tent of Jehovah, and saith unto him, `Thus said the king, Come out;' and he saith, `Nay, but here I die.' And Benaiah bringeth back the king word, saying, `Thus spake Joab, yea, thus he answered me.'

32
And he speaketh three thousand similes, and his songs `are' five, and the chief one;
field: 11004033
11

33
and he speaketh concerning the trees, from the cedar that `is' in Lebanon, even unto the hyssop that is coming out in the wall, and he speaketh concerning the cattle, and concerning the fowl, and concerning the creeping things, and concerning the fishes,
field: 11004034

34
and there come out of all the peoples to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth who have heard of his wisdom.
field: 11005001

1
And Hiram king of Tyre sendeth his servants unto Solomon, for he heard that they had anointed him for king instead of his father, for Hiram was a lover of David all the days;
field: 11005002
11
5
2
and Solomon sendeth unto Hiram, saying,
field: 11005003
11
5
3
`Thou hast known David my father, that he hath not been able to build a house to the name of Jehovah his God, because of the wars that have been round about him, till Jehovah's putting them under the soles of his feet.
field: 11005004
11
5
4
`And now, Jehovah my God hath given rest to me round about, there is no adversary nor evil occurrence,
field: 11005005
11
5
5
and lo, I am saying to build a house to the name of Jehovah my God, as Jehovah spake unto David my father, saying, Thy son whom I appoint in thy stead on thy throne, he doth build the house for My name.
field: 11005006
11
5
6
`And now, command, and they cut down for me cedars out of Lebanon, and my servants are with thy servants, and the hire of thy servants I give to thee according to all that thou sayest, for thou hast known that there is not among us a man acquainted with cutting wood, like the Sidonians.'
field: 11005007
11
5
7
And it cometh to pass at Hiram's hearing the words of Solomon, that he rejoiceth exceedingly, and saith, `Blessed `is' Jehovah to-day, who hath given to David a wise son over this numerous people.'
field: 11005008
11
5
8
And Hiram sendeth unto Solomon, saying, I have heard that which thou hast sent unto me, I do all thy desire concerning cedar-wood, and fir-wood,
field: 11005009
11
5
9
my servants bring down from Lebanon to the sea, and I make them floats in the sea unto the place that thou sendest unto me, and I have spread them out there; and thou dost take `them' up, and thou dost execute my desire, to give the food of my house.'
field: 11005010
11
5
10
And Hiram is giving to Solomon cedar-trees, and fir-trees, all his desire,
field: 11005011
11
5
11
and Solomon hath given to Hiram twenty thousand cors of wheat, food for his house, and twenty cors of beaten oil; thus doth Solomon give to Hiram year by year.
field: 11005012
11
5
12
And Jehovah hath given wisdom to Solomon as He spake to him, and there is peace between Hiram and Solomon, and they make a covenant both of them.
field: 11005013
11
5
13
And king Solomon lifteth up a tribute out of all Israel, and the tribute is thirty thousand men,
field: 11005014
11
5
14
and he sendeth them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month, by changes, a month they are in Lebanon, two months in their own house; and Adoniram `is' over the tribute.
field: 11005015
11
5
15
And king Solomon hath seventy thousand bearing burdens, and eighty thousand hewing in the mountain,
field: 11005016
11
5
16
apart from the heads of the officers of Solomon, who `are' over the work, three thousand and three hundred, those ruling over the people who are working in the business.
field: 11005017
11
5
17
And the king commandeth, and they bring great stones, precious stone, to lay the foundation of the house, hewn stones;
field: 11005018
11
5
18
and the builders of Solomon, and the builders of Hiram, and the Giblites hew, and prepare the wood and the stones to build the house.
field: 11006001
11

1
And it cometh to pass, in the four hundred and eightieth year of the going out of the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, in the fourth year -- in the month of Zif, it `is' the second month -- of the reigning of Solomon over Israel, that he buildeth the house for Jehovah.
field: 11006002
11
6
2
As to the house that king Solomon hath built for Jehovah, sixty cubits `is' its length, and twenty its breadth, and thirty cubits its height.
field: 11006003
11
6
3
As to the porch on the front of the temple of the house, twenty cubits `is' its length on the front of the breadth of the house; ten by the cubit `is' its breadth on the front of the house;
field: 11006004
11
6
4
and he maketh for the house windows of narrow lights.
field: 11006005
11
6
5
And he buildeth against the wall of the house a couch round about, `even' the walls of the house round about, of the temple and of the oracle, and maketh sides round about.
field: 11006006
11
6
6
The lowest couch, five by the cubit `is' its breadth; and the middle, six by the cubit `is' its breadth; and the third, seven by the cubit `is' its breadth, for withdrawings he hath put to the house round about, without -- not to lay hold on the walls of the house.
field: 11006007
11
6
7
And the house, in its being built, of perfect stone brought `thither' hath been built, and hammer, and the axe -- any instrument of iron -- was not heard in the house, in its being built.
field: 11006008
11
6
8
The opening of the middle side `is' at the right shoulder of the house, and with windings they go up on the middle one, and from the middle one unto the third.
field: 11006009
11
6
9
And he buildeth the house, and completeth it, and covereth the house `with' beams and rows of cedars.
field: 11006010
11
6
10
And he buildeth the couch against all the house, five cubits `is' its height, and it taketh hold of the house by cedar-wood.
field: 11006011
11
6
11
And the word of Jehovah is unto Solomon, saying,
field: 11006012
11
6
12
`This house that thou art building -- if thou dost walk in My statutes, and My judgments dost do, yea, hast done all My commands, to walk in them, then I have established My word with thee, which I spake unto David thy father,
field: 11006013
11
6
13
and have tabernacled in the midst of the sons of Israel, and do not forsake My people Israel.'
field: 11006014
11
6
14
And Solomon buildeth the house and completeth it;
field: 11006015
11
6
15
and he buildeth the walls of the house within with beams of cedar, from the floor of the house unto the walls of the ceiling; he hath overlaid with wood the inside, and covereth the floor of the house with ribs of fir.
field: 11006016
11
6
16
And he buildeth the twenty cubits on the sides of the house with ribs of cedar, from the floor unto the walls; and he buildeth for it within, for the oracle, for the holy of holies.
field: 11006017
11
6
17
And forty by the cubit was the house, it `is' the temple before `it'.
field: 11006018
11
6
18
And the cedar for the house within `is' carvings of knobs and openings of flowers; the whole `is' cedar, there is not a stone seen.
field: 11006019
11
6
19
And the oracle in the midst of the house within he hath prepared, to put there the ark of the covenant of Jehovah.
field: 11006020
11
6
20
And before the oracle `is' twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits `is' its height; and he overlayeth it with gold refined, and overlayeth the altar with cedar.
field: 11006021
11
6
21
And Solomon overlayeth the house within with gold refined, and causeth `it' to pass over in chains of gold before the oracle, and overlayeth it with gold.
field: 11006022
11
6
22
And the whole of the house he hath overlaid with gold, till the completion of all the house; and the whole of the altar that the oracle hath, he hath overlaid with gold.
field: 11006023
11
6
23
And he maketh within the oracle two cherubs, of the oil-tree, ten cubits `is' their height;
field: 11006024
11
6
24
and five cubits `is' the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the second wing of the cherub, ten cubits from the ends of its wings even unto the ends of its wings;
field: 11006025
11
6
25
and ten by the cubit `is' the second cherub, one measure and one form `are' to the two cherubs,
field: 11006026
11
6
26
the height of the one cherub `is' ten by the cubit, and so `is' the second cherub;
field: 11006027
11
6
27
and he setteth the cherubs in the midst of the inner house, and they spread out the wings of the cherubs, and a wing of the one cometh against the wall, and a wing of the second cherub is coming against the second wall, and their wings `are' unto the midst of the house, coming wing against wing;
field: 11006028
11
6
28
and he overlayeth the cherubs with gold,
field: 11006029
11
6
29
and all the walls of the house round about he hath carved with openings of carvings, cherubs, and palm trees, and openings of flowers, within and without.
field: 11006030
11
6
30
And the floor of the house he hath overlaid with gold, within and without;
field: 11006031
11
6
31
as to the opening of the oracle, he made doors of the oil-tree; the lintel, side-posts, a fifth.
field: 11006032
11
6
32
And the two doors `are' of the oil-tree, and he hath carved upon them carvings of cherubs, and palm-trees, and openings of flowers, and overlaid with gold, and he causeth the gold to go down on the cherubs and on the palm-trees.
field: 11006033
11
6
33
And so he hath made for the opening of the temple, side-posts of the oil-tree, from the fourth.
field: 11006034
11
6
34
And the two doors `are' of fir-tree, the two sides of the one door are revolving, and the two hangings of the second door are revolving.
field: 11006035
11
6
35
And he hath carved cherubs, and palms, and openings of flowers, and overlaid with straightened gold the graved work.
field: 11006036
11
6
36
And he buildeth the inner court, three rows of hewn work, and a row of beams of cedar.
field: 11006037
11
6
37
In the fourth year hath the house of Jehovah been founded, in the month Zif,
field: 11006038
11
6
38
and in the eleventh year, in the month Bul -- `that is' the eighth month -- hath the house been finished in all its matters, and in all its ordinances, and he buildeth it seven years.
field: 11007001
11
7
1
And his own house hath Solomon built thirteen years, and he finisheth all his house.
field: 11007002
11
7
2
And he buildeth the house of the forest of Lebanon; a hundred cubits `is' its length, and fifty cubits its breadth, and thirty cubits its height, on four rows of cedar pillars, and cedar-beams on the pillars;
field: 11007003
11
7
3
and `it is' covered with cedar above, on the sides that `are' on the forty and five pillars, fifteen in the row.
field: 11007004
11
7
4
And windows `are' in three rows, and sight `is' over-against sight three times.
field: 11007005
11
7
5
And all the openings and the side-posts `are' square -- windows; and sight `is' over-against sight three times.
field: 11007006
11
7
6
And the porch of the pillars he hath made; fifty cubits its length, and thirty cubits its breadth, and the porch `is' before them, and pillars and a thick place `are' before them.
field: 11007007
11
7
7
And the porch of the throne where he judgeth -- the porch of judgment -- he hath made, and `it is' covered with cedar from the floor unto the floor.
field: 11007008
11
7
8
As to his house where he dwelleth, the other court `is' within the porch -- as this work it hath been; and a house he maketh for the daughter of Pharaoh -- whom Solomon hath taken -- like this porch.
field: 11007009
11
7
9
All these `are' of precious stone, according to the measures of hewn work, sawn with a saw, within and without, even from the foundation unto the coping, and at the outside, unto the great court.
field: 11007010
11
7
10
And the foundation `is' of precious stone, great stones, stones of ten cubits, and stones of eight cubits;
field: 11007011
11
7
11
and above `are' precious stone, according to the measures of hewn work, and cedar;
field: 11007012
11
7
12
and the great court round about `is' three rows of hewn work, and a row of cedar-beams, even for the inner court of the house of Jehovah, and for the porch of the house.
field: 11007013
11
7
13
And king Solomon sendeth and taketh Hiram out of Tyre --
field: 11007014
11
7
14
he `is' son of a woman, a widow, of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father a man of Tyre, a worker in brass, and he is filled with the wisdom and the understanding, and the knowledge to do all work in brass -- and he cometh unto king Solomon, and doth all his work.
field: 11007015
11
7
15
And he formeth the two pillars of brass; eighteen cubits `is' the height of the one pillar, and a cord of twelve cubits doth compass the second pillar.
field: 11007016
11
7
16
And two chapiters he hath made to put on the tops of the pillars, cast in brass; five cubits the height of the one chapiter, and five cubits the height of the second chapiter.
field: 11007017
11
7
17
Nets of net-work, wreaths of chain-work `are' for the chapiters that `are' on the top of the pillars, seven for the one chapiter, and seven for the second chapiter.
field: 11007018
11
7
18
And he maketh the pillars, and two rows round about on the one net-work, to cover the chapiters that `are' on the top, with the pomegranates, and so he hath made for the second chapiter.
field: 11007019
11
7
19
And the chapiters that `are' on the top of the pillars `are' of lily-work in the porch, four cubits;
field: 11007020
11
7
20
and the chapiters on the two pillars also above, over-against the protuberance that `is' beside the net; and the pomegranates `are' two hundred, in rows round about on the second chapiter.
field: 11007021
11
7
21
And he raiseth up the pillars for the porch of the temple, and he raiseth up the right pillar, and calleth its name Jachin, and he raiseth up the left pillar, and calleth its name Boaz;
field: 11007022
11
7
22
and on the top of the pillars `is' lily-work; and the work of the pillars `is' completed.
field: 11007023
11
7
23
And he maketh the molten sea, ten by the cubit from its edge unto its edge; `it is' round all about, and five by the cubit `is' its height, and a line of thirty by the cubit doth compass it round about;
field: 11007024
11
7
24
and knops beneath its brim round about are compassing it, ten by the cubit, going round the sea round about; in two rows `are' the knops, cast in its being cast.
field: 11007025
11
7
25
It is standing on twelve oxen, three facing the north, and three facing the west, and three facing the south, and three facing the east, and the sea `is' upon them above, and all their hinder parts `are' inward.
field: 11007026
11
7
26
And its thickness `is' an handbreadth, and its edge as the work of the edge of a cup, flowers of lilies; two thousand baths it containeth.
field: 11007027
11
7
27
And he maketh the ten bases of brass; four by the cubit `is' the length of the one base, and four by the cubit its breadth, and three by the cubit its height.
field: 11007028
11
7
28
And this `is' the work of the base: they have borders, and the borders `are' between the joinings;
field: 11007029
11
7
29
and on the borders that `are' between the joinings `are' lions, oxen, and cherubs, and on the joinings a base above, and beneath the lions and the oxen `are' additions -- sloping work.
field: 11007030
11
7
30
And four wheels of brass `are' to the one base, and axles of brass; and its four corners have shoulders -- under the laver `are' the molten shoulders, beside each addition.
field: 11007031
11
7
31
And its mouth within the chapiter and above `is' by the cubit, and its mouth `is' round, the work of the base, a cubit and half a cubit; and also on its mouth `are' carvings and their borders, square, not round.
field: 11007032
11
7
32
And the four wheels `are' under the borders, and the spokes of the wheels `are' in the base, and the height of the one wheel `is' a cubit and half a cubit.
field: 11007033
11
7
33
And the work of the wheels `is' as the work of the wheel of a chariot, their spokes, and their axles, and their felloes, and their naves; the whole `is' molten.
field: 11007034
11
7
34
And four shoulders `are' unto the four corners of the one base; out of the base `are' its shoulders.
field: 11007035
11
7
35
And in the top of the base `is' the half of a cubit in the height all round about; and on the top of the base its spokes and its borders `are' of the same.
field: 11007036
11
7
36
And he openeth on the tablets of its spokes, and on its borders, cherubs, lions, and palm-trees, according to the void space of each, and additions round about.
field: 11007037
11
7
37
Thus he hath made the ten bases; one casting, one measure, one form, have they all.
field: 11007038
11
7
38
And he maketh ten lavers of brass; forty baths doth the one laver contain, four by the cubit `is' the one laver, one laver on the one base `is' to the ten bases;
field: 11007039
11
7
39
and he putteth the five bases on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house, and the sea he hath put on the right side of the house, eastward -- over-against the south.
field: 11007040
11
7
40
And Hiram maketh the lavers, and the shovels, and the bowls; and Hiram completeth to do all the work that he made for king Solomon, `for' the house of Jehovah;
field: 11007041
11
7
41
pillars two, and bowls of the chapiters that `are' on the top of the pillars two, and the nets two, to cover the two bowls of the chapiters that `are' on the top of the pillars;
field: 11007042
11
7
42
and the pomegranates four hundred for the two nets, two rows of pomegranates for the one net, to cover the two bowls of the chapiters that `are' on the front of the pillars;
field: 11007043
11
7
43
and the ten bases, and the ten lavers on the bases;
field: 11007044
11
7
44
and the one sea, the twelve oxen under the sea,
field: 11007045
11
7
45
and the pots, and the shovels, and the bowls; and all these vessels, that Hiram hath made to king Solomon `for' the house of Jehovah, `are' of brass -- polished.
field: 11007046
11
7
46
In the circuit of the Jordan hath the king cast them, in the thick soil of the ground, between Succoth and Zarthan.
field: 11007047
11
7
47
And Solomon placeth the whole of the vessels; because of the very great abundance, the weight of the brass hath not been searched out.
field: 11007048
11
7
48
And Solomon maketh all the vessels that `are' in the house of Jehovah: the altar of gold, and the table -- on which `is' the bread of the Presence -- of gold,
field: 11007049
11
7
49
and the candlesticks, five on the right, and five on the left, before the oracle, of refined gold, and the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs, of gold,
field: 11007050
11
7
50
and the basins, and the snuffers, and the bowls, and the spoons, and the censers, of refined gold, and the hinges for the doors of the inner-house, for the holy of holies, for the doors of the house of the temple, of gold.
field: 11007051
11
7
51
And it is complete -- all the work that king Solomon hath made `for' the house of Jehovah, and Solomon bringeth in the sanctified things of David his father; the silver, and the gold, and the vessels he hath put in the treasuries of the house of Jehovah.
field: 11008001
11
8
1
Then doth Solomon assemble the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, princes of the fathers of the sons of Israel, unto king Solomon, to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah from the city of David -- it `is' Zion;
field: 11008002
11
8
2
and all the men of Israel are assembled unto king Solomon, in the month of Ethanim, in the festival -- `is' the seventh month.
field: 11008003
11
8
3
And all the elders of Israel come in, and the priests lift up the ark,
field: 11008004
11
8
4
and bring up the ark of Jehovah, and the tent of meeting, and all the holy vessels that `are' in the tent, yea, the priests and the Levites bring them up.
field: 11008005
11
8
5
And king Solomon and all the company of Israel who are met unto him `are' with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that are not counted nor numbered for multitude.
field: 11008006
11
8
6
And the priests bring in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah unto its place, unto the oracle of the house, unto the holy of holies, unto the place of the wings of the cherubs;
field: 11008007
11
8
7
for the cherubs are spreading forth two wings unto the place of the ark, and the cherubs cover over the ark, and over its staves from above;
field: 11008008
11
8
8
and they lengthen the staves, and the heads of the staves are seen from the holy `place' on the front of the oracle, and are not seen without, and they are there unto this day.
field: 11008009
11
8
9
There is nothing in the ark, only the two tables of stone which Moses put there in Horeb, when Jehovah covenanted with the sons of Israel in their going out of the land of Egypt.
field: 11008010
11
8
10
And it cometh to pass, in the going out of the priests from the holy `place', that the cloud hath filled the house of Jehovah,
field: 11008011
11
8
11
and the priests have not been able to stand to minister because of the cloud, for the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house of Jehovah.
field: 11008012
11
8
12
Then said Solomon, `Jehovah hath said to dwell in thick darkness;
field: 11008013
11
8
13
I have surely built a house of habitation for Thee; a fixed place for Thine abiding to the ages.'
field: 11008014
11
8
14
And the king turneth round his face, and blesseth the whole assembly of Israel; and all the assembly of Israel is standing.
field: 11008015
11
8
15
And he saith, `Blessed `is' Jehovah, God of Israel, who spake by His mouth with David my father, and by His hand hath fulfilled `it', saying,

From the day that I brought out My people, even Israel, from Egypt, I have not fixed on a city out of all the tribes of Israel, to build a house for My name being there; and I fix on David to be over My people Israel.
field: 11008017

17
`And it is with the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of Jehovah, God of Israel,
field: 11008018
11
8
18
and Jehovah saith unto David my father, Because that it hath been with thy heart to build a house for My name, thou hast done well that it hath been with thy heart;
field: 11008019
11
8
19
only, thou dost not build the house, but thy son who is coming out from thy loins, he doth build the house for My name.
field: 11008020
11
8
20
`And Jehovah doth establish His word which He spake, and I am risen up instead of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as Jehovah spake, and build the house for the name of Jehovah, God of Israel,
field: 11008021
11
8
21
and set there a place for the ark, where `is' the covenant of Jehovah which He made with our fathers in His bringing them out from the land of Egypt.'
field: 11008022
11
8
22
And Solomon standeth before the altar of Jehovah, over-against all the assembly of Israel, and spreadeth his hands towards the heavens,
field: 11008023
11
8
23
and saith, `Jehovah, God of Israel, there is not a God like Thee, in the heavens above, and on the earth beneath, keeping the covenant and the kindness for Thy servants, those walking before Thee with all their heart,
field: 11008024
11

24
who hast kept for Thy servant David my father that which Thou spakest to him; yea, Thou speakest with Thy mouth, and with Thy hand hast fulfilled `it', as `at' this day.
field: 11008025
11
8
25
`And now, Jehovah, God of Israel, keep for Thy servant David my father that which Thou spakest to him, saying, There is not cut off to thee a man from before Me, sitting on the throne of Israel -- only, if thy sons watch their way, to walk before Me as thou hast walked before Me.
field: 11008026
11
8
26
`And now, O God of Israel, let it be established, I pray Thee, Thy word which Thou hast spoken to Thy servant, David my father.
field: 11008027
11

27
But, is it true? -- God dwelleth on the earth! lo, the heavens, and the heavens of the heavens do not contain Thee, how much less this house which I have builded!
field: 11008028
11
8
28
`Then thou hast turned unto the prayer of Thy servant, and unto his supplication, O Jehovah my God, to hearken unto the cry and unto the prayer which Thy servant is praying before Thee to-day,
field: 11008029

`Then Thou hast hearkened unto the supplication of Thy servant, and of Thy people Israel, which they pray towards this place; yea, Thou dost hearken in the place of Thy dwelling, in the heavens -- and Thou hast hearkened, and hast forgiven,

Thou dost hear in the heavens, the settled place of Thy dwelling, and hast done according to all that the stranger calleth unto Thee for, in order that all the peoples of the earth may know Thy name, to fear Thee like Thy people Israel, and to know that Thy name hath been called on this house which I have builded.

yea, they have turned back unto Thee, with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies who have taken them captive, and have prayed unto Thee the way of their land, which Thou gavest to their fathers, the city which Thou hast chosen, and the house which I have builded for Thy name:

`Then Thou hast heard in the heavens, the settled place of Thy dwelling, their prayer and their supplication, and hast maintained their cause,

(for Thy people and Thy inheritance `are' they, whom Thou didst bring out of Egypt, out of the midst of the furnace of iron) --

field: 11008054
11
8
54
And it cometh to pass, at Solomon's finishing to pray unto Jehovah all this prayer and supplication, he hath risen from before the altar of Jehovah, from bending on his knees, and his hands spread out to the heavens,
field: 11008055
11
8
55
and he standeth and blesseth all the assembly of Israel `with' a loud voice, saying,
field: 11008056
11
8
56
`Blessed `is' Jehovah who hath given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He hath spoken; there hath not fallen one word of all His good word, which He spake by the hand of Moses his servant.

`Jehovah our God is with us as He hath been with our fathers; He doth not forsake us nor leave us;

to incline our heart unto Himself, to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commands, and His statutes, and His judgments, which He commanded our fathers;
field: 11008059
11
8
59
and these my words with which I have made supplication before Jehovah, are near unto Jehovah our God by day and by night, to maintain the cause of His servant, and the cause of His people Israel, the matter of a day in its day;
field: 11008060
11
8
60
for all the peoples of the earth knowing that Jehovah, He `is' God; there is none else;
field: 11008061
11
8
61
and your heart hath been perfect with Jehovah our God, to walk in His statutes, and to keep His commands, as `at' this day.'
field: 11008062
11
8
62
And the king and all Israel with him are sacrificing a sacrifice before Jehovah;
field: 11008063
11
8
63
and Solomon sacrificeth the sacrifice of peace-offerings, which he hath sacrificed to Jehovah, oxen, twenty and two thousand, and sheep, a hundred and twenty thousand; and the king and all the sons of Israel dedicate the house of Jehovah.
field: 11008064
11
8
64
On that day hath the king sanctified the middle of the court that `is' before the house of Jehovah, for he hath made there the burnt-offering, and the present, and the fat of the peace-offerings; for the altar of brass that `is' before Jehovah `is' too little to contain the burnt-offering, and the present, and the fat of the peace-offerings.
field: 11008065
11
8
65
And Solomon maketh, at that time, the festival -- and all Israel with him, a great assembly from the entering in of Hamath unto the brook of Egypt -- before Jehovah our God, seven days and seven days; fourteen days.
field: 11008066
11
8
66
On the eighth day he hath sent the people away, and they bless the king, and go to their tents, rejoicing and glad of heart for all the good that Jehovah hath done to David His servant, and to Israel His people.
field: 11009001
11

And it cometh to pass, at Solomon's finishing to build the house of Jehovah, and the house of the king, and all the desire of Solomon that he delighted to do,
field: 11009002
11
9
2
that Jehovah appeareth unto Solomon a second time, as He appeared unto him in Gibeon,
field: 11009003
11
9
3
and Jehovah saith unto him, `I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication with which thou hast made supplication before Me; I have hallowed this house that thou hast built to put My name there -- unto the age, and Mine eyes and My heart have been there all the days.
field: 11009004
11

4
`And thou -- if thou dost walk before Me as David thy father walked, in simplicity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee -- My statutes and My judgments thou dost keep --
field: 11009005
11
9
5
then I have established the throne of thy kingdom over Israel -- to the age, as I spake unto David thy father, saying, There is not cut off to thee a man from `being' on the throne of Israel.
field: 11009006
11
9
6
`If ye at all turn back -- you and your sons -- from after Me, and keep not My commands -- My statutes, that I have set before you, and ye have gone and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them,
field: 11009007
11
9
7
then I have cut off Israel from the face of the ground that I have given to them, and the house that I have hallowed for My name I send away from My presence, and Israel hath been for a simile and for a byword among all the peoples;
field: 11009008
11
9
8
as to this house, `that' is high, every one passing by it is astonished, and hath hissed, and they have said, Wherefore hath Jehovah done thus to this land and to this house?
field: 11009009
11
9
9
and they have said, Because that they have forsaken Jehovah their God, who brought out their fathers from the land of Egypt, and they lay hold on other gods, and bow themselves to them, and serve them; therefore hath Jehovah brought in upon them all this evil.'
field: 11009010
11
9
10
And it cometh to pass, at the end of twenty years, that Solomon hath built the two houses, the house of Jehovah, and the house of the king.
field: 11009011
11

11
Hiram king of Tyre hath assisted Solomon with cedar-trees, and with fir-trees, and with gold, according to all his desire; then doth king Solomon give to Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
field: 11009012
11
9
12
And Hiram cometh out from Tyre to see the cities that Solomon hath given to him, and they have not been right in his eyes,
field: 11009013
11
9
13
and he saith, `What `are' these cities that thou hast given to me, my brother?' and one calleth them the land of Cabul unto this day.
field: 11009014
11
9
14
And Hiram sendeth to the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold.
field: 11009015
11
9
15
And this `is' the matter of the tribute that king Solomon hath lifted up, to build the house of Jehovah, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer,
field: 11009016
11
9
16
(Pharaoh king of Egypt hath gone up and doth capture Gezer, and doth burn it with fire, and the Canaanite who is dwelling in the city he hath slain, and giveth it `with' presents to his daughter, wife of Solomon.)
field: 11009017
11
9
17
And Solomon buildeth Gezer, and Beth-Horon the lower,
field: 11009018
11
9
18
and Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land;
field: 11009019
11
9
19
and all the cities of stores that king Solomon hath, and the cities of the chariots, and the cities of the horsemen, and the desire of Solomon that he desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
field: 11009020
11
9
20
The whole of the people that is left of the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, who `are' not of the sons of Israel --
field: 11009021
11
9
21
their sons who are left behind them in the land, whom the sons of Israel have not been able to devote -- he hath even lifted up `on' them a tribute of service unto this day.
field: 11009022
11
9
22
And out of the sons of Israel Solomon hath not appointed a servant, for they `are' the men of war, and his servants, and his heads, and his captains, and the heads of his chariots, and his horsemen.
field: 11009023
11
9
23
These `are' the heads of the officers who `are' over the work of Solomon, fifty and five hundred, those ruling among the people who are labouring in the work.
field: 11009024
11
9
24
Only, the daughter of Pharaoh went up out of the city of David unto her house that `Solomon' built for her; then he built Millo.
field: 11009025
11
9
25
And Solomon caused to ascend, three times in a year, burnt-offerings and peace-offerings on the altar that he built to Jehovah, and he perfumed it with that which `is' before Jehovah, and finished the house.
field: 11009026
11
9
26
And a navy hath king Solomon made in Ezion-Geber, that is beside Eloth, on the edge of the Sea of Suph, in the land of Edom.
field: 11009027
11
9
27
And Hiram sendeth in the navy his servants, shipmen knowing the sea, with servants of Solomon,
field: 11009028
11
9
28
and they come in to Ophir and take thence gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and bring `it' in unto king Solomon.
field: 11010001
11
10
1
And the queen of Sheba is hearing of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of Jehovah, and cometh to try him with enigmas,
field: 11010002
11
10
2
and she cometh to Jerusalem, with a very great company, camels bearing spices, and very much gold, and precious stone, and she cometh unto Solomon, and speaketh unto him all that hath been with her heart.
field: 11010003
11
10
3
And Solomon declareth to her all her matters -- there hath not been a thing hid from the king that he hath not declared to her.
field: 11010004
11
10
4
And the queen of Sheba seeth all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he built,
field: 11010005
11
10
5
and the food of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the standing of his ministers, and their clothing, and his butlers, and his burnt-offering that he causeth to ascend in the house of Jehovah, and there hath not been in her any more spirit.
field: 11010006
11
10
6
And she saith unto the king, `True hath been the word that I heard in my land, concerning thy matters and thy wisdom;
field: 11010007
11
10
7
and I gave no credence to the words till that I have come, and my eyes see, and lo, it was not declared to me -- the half; thou hast added wisdom and goodness unto the report that I heard.
field: 11010008
11
10
8
O the happiness of thy men, O the happiness of thy servants -- these -- who are standing before thee continually, who are hearing thy wisdom!
field: 11010009
11
10
9
Jehovah thy God is blessed who delighted in thee, to put thee on the throne of Israel; in Jehovah's loving Israel to the age He doth set thee for king, to do judgment and righteousness.
field: 11010010
11
10
10
And she giveth to the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices very many, and precious stone; there came not like that spice any more for abundance that the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon.
field: 11010011
11
10
11
And also, the navy of Hiram that bore gold from Ophir, brought in from Ophir almug-trees very many, and precious stone;
field: 11010012
11
10
12
and the king maketh the almug-trees a support for the house of Jehovah, and for the house of the king, and harps and psalteries for singers; there have not come such almug-trees, nor have there been seen `such' unto this day.
field: 11010013
11
10
13
And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire that she asked, apart from that which he gave to her as a memorial of king Solomon, and she turneth and goeth to her land, she and her servants.
field: 11010014
11
10
14
And the weight of the gold that hath come to Solomon in one year is six hundred sixty and six talents of gold,
field: 11010015
11
10
15
apart from `that of' the tourists, and of the traffic of the merchants, and of all the kings of Arabia, and of the governors of the land.
field: 11010016
11
10
16
And king Solomon maketh two hundred targets of alloyed gold -- six hundred of gold go up on the one target;
field: 11010017
11
10
17
and three hundred shields of alloyed gold -- three pounds of gold go up on the one shield; and the king putteth them `in' the house of the forest of Lebanon.
field: 11010018
11
10
18
And the king maketh a great throne of ivory, and overlayeth it with refined gold;
field: 11010019
11
10
19
six steps hath the throne, and a round top `is' to the throne behind it, and hands `are' on this `side' and on that, unto the place of the sitting, and two lions are standing near the hands,
field: 11010020
11
10
20
and twelve lions are standing there on the six steps, on this `side' and on that; it hath not been made so for any kingdom.
field: 11010021
11
10
21
And all the drinking vessels of king Solomon `are' of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon `are' of refined gold -- there are none of silver; it was not reckoned in the days of Solomon for anything,
field: 11010022
11
10
22
for a navy of Tarshish hath the king at sea with a navy of Hiram; once in three years cometh the navy of Tarshish, bearing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
field: 11010023
11
10
23
And king Solomon is greater than any of the kings of the earth for riches and for wisdom,
field: 11010024
11
10
24
and all the earth is seeking the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom that God hath put into his heart,
field: 11010025
11
10
25
and they are bringing each his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and armour, and spices, horses, and mules, the matter of a year in a year.
field: 11010026
11
10
26
And Solomon gathereth chariots, and horsemen, and he hath a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, and he placeth them in the cities of the chariot, and with the king in Jerusalem.
field: 11010027
11
10
27
And the king maketh the silver in Jerusalem as stones, and the cedars he hath made as the sycamores that `are' in the low country, for abundance.
field: 11010028
11
10
28
And the outgoing of the horses that king Solomon hath `is' from Egypt, and from Keveh; merchants of the king take from Keveh at a price;
field: 11010029
11
10
29
and a chariot cometh up and cometh out of Egypt for six hundred silverlings, and a horse for fifty and a hundred, and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and for the kings of Aram; by their hand they bring out.
field: 11011001
11
11
1
And king Solomon hath loved many strange women, and the daughter of Pharaoh, females of Moab, Ammon, Edom, Zidon, `and' of the Hittites,
field: 11011002
11
11
2
of the nations of which Jehovah said unto the sons of Israel, `Ye do not go in to them, and they do not go in to you; surely they turn aside your heart after their gods;' to them hath Solomon cleaved for love.
field: 11011003
11
11
3
And he hath women, princesses, seven hundred, and concubines three hundred; and his wives turn aside his heart.
field: 11011004
11
11
4
And it cometh to pass, at the time of the old age of Solomon, his wives have turned aside his heart after other gods, and his heart hath not been perfect with Jehovah his God, like the heart of David his father.
field: 11011005
11
11
5
And Solomon goeth after Ashtoreth god`dess' of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites;
field: 11011006
11
11
6
and Solomon doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and hath not been fully after Jehovah, like David his father.
field: 11011007
11
11
7
Then doth Solomon build a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, in the hill that `is' on the front of Jerusalem, and for Molech the abomination of the sons of Ammon;
field: 11011008
11
11
8
and so he hath done for all his strange women, who are perfuming and sacrificing to their gods.
field: 11011009
11
11
9
And Jehovah sheweth Himself angry with Solomon, for his heart hath turned aside from Jehovah, God of Israel, who had appeared unto him twice,
field: 11011010
11
11
10
and given a charge unto him concerning this thing, not to go after other gods; and he hath not kept that which Jehovah commanded,
field: 11011011
11
11
11
and Jehovah saith to Solomon, `Because that this hath been with thee, and thou hast not kept My covenant and My statutes that I charged upon thee, I surely rend the kingdom from thee, and have given it to thy servant.
field: 11011012
11
11
12
`Only, in thy days I do it not, for the sake of David thy father; out of the hand of thy son I rend it;

only all the kingdom I do not rend away; one tribe I give to thy son, for the sake of David My servant, and for the sake of Jerusalem, that I have chosen.'
field: 11011014
11
11
14
And Jehovah raiseth up an adversary to Solomon, Hadad the Edomite; of the seed of the king `is' he in Edom;
field: 11011015
11
11
15
and it cometh to pass, in David's being with Edom, in the going up of Joab head of the host to bury the slain, that he smiteth every male in Edom --
field: 11011016
11
11
16
for six months did Joab abide there, and all Israel, till the cutting off of every male in Edom --
field: 11011017
11
11
17
and Hadad fleeth, he and certain Edomites, of the servants of his father, with him, to go in to Egypt, and Hadad `is' a little youth,
field: 11011018
11
11
18
and they rise out of Midian, and come into Paran, and take men with them out of Paran, and come in to Egypt, unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he giveth to him a house, and bread hath commanded for him, and land hath given to him.
field: 11011019
11
11
19
And Hadad findeth grace in the eyes of Pharaoh exceedingly, and he giveth to him a wife, the sister of his own wife, sister of Tahpenes the mistress;
field: 11011020
11
11
20
and the sister of Tahpenes beareth to him Genubath his son, and Tahpenes weaneth him within the house of Pharaoh, and Genubath is in the house of Pharaoh in the midst of the sons of Pharaoh.
field: 11011021
11
11
21
And Hadad hath heard in Egypt that David hath lain with his fathers, and that Joab head of the host is dead, and Hadad saith unto Pharaoh, `Send me away, and I go unto my land.'
field: 11011022
11
11
22
And Pharaoh saith to him, `But, what art thou lacking with me, that lo, thou art seeking to go unto thine own land?' and he saith, `Nay, but thou dost certainly send me away.'
field: 11011023
11
11
23
And God raiseth to him an adversary, Rezon son of Eliadah, who hath fled from Hadadezer king of Zobah, his lord,
field: 11011024
11
11
24
and gathereth unto himself men, and is head of a troop in David's slaying them, and they go to Damascus, and dwell in it, and reign in Damascus;
field: 11011025
11
11
25
and he is an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, (besides the evil that Hadad `did'), and he cutteth off in Israel, and reigneth over Aram.
field: 11011026
11
11
26
And Jeroboam son of Nebat, an Ephrathite of Zereda -- the name of whose mother `is' Zeruah, a widow woman -- servant to Solomon, he also lifteth up a hand against the king;
field: 11011027
11
11
27
and this `is' the thing `for' which he lifted up a hand against the king: Solomon built Millo -- he shut up the breach of the city of David his father,
field: 11011028
11
11
28
and the man Jeroboam `is' mighty in valour, and Solomon seeth the young man that he is doing business, and appointeth him over all the burden of the house of Joseph.
field: 11011029
11
11
29
And it cometh to pass, at that time, that Jeroboam hath gone out from Jerusalem, and Ahijah the Shilonite, the prophet, findeth him in the way, and he is covering himself with a new garment; and both of them `are' by themselves in a field,
field: 11011030
11
11
30
and Ahijah layeth hold on the new garment that `is' on him, and rendeth it -- twelve pieces,
field: 11011031
11
11
31
and saith to Jeroboam, `Take to thee ten pieces, for thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, lo, I am rending the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and have given to thee the ten tribes,

11

and the one tribe he hath for My servant David's sake, and for Jerusalem's sake, the city which I have fixed on, out of all the tribes of Israel.
field: 11011033

`Because they have forsaken Me, and bow themselves to Ashtoreth, god`dess' of the Zidonians, to Chemosh god of Moab, and to Milcom god of the sons of Ammon, and have not walked in My ways, to do that which `is' right in Mine eyes, and My statutes and My judgments, like David his father.

`And I do not take the whole of the kingdom out of his hand, for prince I make him all days of his life, for the sake of David My servant whom I chose, who kept My commands and My statutes;

11
35
and I have taken the kingdom out of the hand of his son, and given it to thee -- the ten tribes;
field: 11011036
11
11
36
and to his son I give one tribe, for there being a lamp to David My servant all the days before Me in Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen to Myself to put My name there.

37
`And thee I take, and thou hast reigned over all that thy soul desireth, and thou hast been king over Israel;

38
and it hath been, if thou dost hear all that I command thee, and hast walked in My ways, and done that which is right in Mine eyes, to keep My statutes and My commands, as did David My servant, that I have been with thee, and have built for thee a stedfast house, as I built for David, and have given to thee Israel,

11

and I humble the seed of David for this; only, not all the days.'
field: 11011040
11
11

And Solomon seeketh to put Jeroboam to death, and Jeroboam riseth and fleeth to Egypt, unto Shishak king of Egypt, and he is in Egypt till the death of Solomon.
field: 11011041
11
11
41
And the rest of the matters of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, are they not written on the book of the matters of Solomon?
field: 11011042
11
11
42
And the days that Solomon hath reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel `are' forty years,
field: 11011043
11
11
43
and Solomon lieth with his fathers, and is buried in the city of David his father, and reign doth Rehoboam his son in his stead.
field: 11012001
11
12
1
And Rehoboam goeth to Shechem, for to Shechem hath all Israel come to make him king.
field: 11012002
11
12
2
And it cometh to pass, at Jeroboam son of Nebat's hearing (and he `is' yet in Egypt where he hath fled from the presence of Solomon the king, and Jeroboam dwelleth in Egypt),
field: 11012003
11
12
3
that they send and call for him; and they come -- Jeroboam and all the assembly of Israel -- and speak unto Rehoboam, saying,
field: 11012004
11
12
4
`Thy father made hard our yoke, and thou, now, make light `some' of the hard service of thy father, and his heavy yoke that he put upon us, and we serve thee.'
field: 11012005
11
12
5
And he saith unto them, `Go -- yet three days, and come back unto me;' and the people go.
field: 11012006
11
12
6
And king Rehoboam consulteth with the elders who have been standing in the presence of Solomon his father, in his being alive, saying, `How are ye counselling to answer this people?'
field: 11012007
11
12
7
And they speak unto him, saying, `If, to-day, thou art servant to this people, and hast served them, and answered them, and spoken unto them good words, then they have been to thee servants all the days.'
field: 11012008
11
12
8
And he forsaketh the counsel of the elders which they counselled him, and consulteth with the lads who have grown up with him, who are standing before him;
field: 11012009
11
12
9
and he saith unto them, `What are ye counselling, and we answer this people, who have spoken unto me, saying, Lighten `somewhat' of the yoke that thy father put upon us?'
field: 11012010
11
12
10
And they speak unto him -- the lads who had grown up with him -- saying, `Thus dost thou say to this people who have spoken unto thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, and thou, make `it' light upon us; thus dost thou speak unto them, My little `finger' is thicker than the loins of my father;
field: 11012011
11
12
11
and now, my father laid on you a heavy yoke, and I add to your yoke; my father chastised you with whips, and I -- I chastise you with scorpions.'
field: 11012012
11
12
12
And they come -- Jeroboam and all the people -- unto Rehoboam, on the third day, as the king had spoken, saying, `Come back unto me on the third day.'
field: 11012013
11
12
13
And the king answereth the people sharply, and forsaketh the counsel of the elders which they counselled him,
field: 11012014
11
12
14
and speaketh unto them, according to the counsel of the lads, saying, `My father made your yoke heavy, and I add to your yoke; my father chastised you with whips, and I -- I chastise you with scorpions;'
field: 11012015
11
12
15
and the king hearkened not unto the people, for the revolution was from Jehovah, in order to establish His word that Jehovah spake by the hand of Ahijah the Shilonite unto Jeroboam son of Nebat.
field: 11012016
11
12
16
And all Israel see that the king hath not hearkened unto them, and the people send the king back word, saying, `What portion have we in David? yea, there is no inheritance in the son of Jesse; to thy tents, O Israel; now see thy house, O David!' and Israel goeth to its tents.
field: 11012017
11
12
17
As to the sons of Israel, those dwelling in the cities of Judah -- over them reign doth Rehoboam.
field: 11012018
11
12
18
And king Rehoboam sendeth Adoram who `is' over the tribute, and all Israel cast at him stones, and he dieth; and king Rehoboam hath strengthened himself to go up into a chariot to flee to Jerusalem;
field: 11012019
11
12
19
and Israel transgresseth against the house of David unto this day.
field: 11012020
11
12
20
And it cometh to pass, at all Israel's hearing that Jeroboam hath returned, that they send and call him unto the company, and cause him to reign over all Israel; none hath been after the house of David save the tribe of Judah alone.
field: 11012021
11
12
21
And Rehoboam cometh to Jerusalem, and assembleth all the house of Judah and the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand chosen warriors, to fight with the house of Israel, to bring back the kingdom to Rehoboam son of Solomon.
field: 11012022
11
12
22
And the word of God is unto Shemaiah a man of God, saying,
field: 11012023
11
12
23
`Speak unto Rehoboam son of Solomon, king of Judah, and unto all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and the rest of the people, saying,
field: 11012024
11
12
24
Thus said Jehovah, Ye do not go up nor fight with your brethren the sons of Israel; turn back each to his house, for from Me hath this thing been;' and they hear the word of Jehovah, and turn back to go according to the word of Jehovah.
field: 11012025
11
12
25
And Jeroboam buildeth Shechem in the hill-country of Ephraim, and dwelleth in it, and goeth out thence, and buildeth Penuel;
field: 11012026
11
12
26
and Jeroboam saith in his heart, `Now doth the kingdom turn back to the house of David --
field: 11012027
11
12
27
if this people go up to make sacrifices in the house of Jehovah in Jerusalem, then hath the heart of this people turned back unto their lord, unto Rehoboam king of Judah, and they have slain me, and turned back unto Rehoboam king of Judah.'
field: 11012028
11
12
28
And the king taketh counsel, and maketh two calves of gold, and saith unto them, `Enough to you of going up to Jerusalem; lo, thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.'
field: 11012029
11
12
29
And he setteth the one in Beth-El, and the other he hath put in Dan,
field: 11012030
11
12
30
and this thing becometh a sin, and the people go before the one -- unto Dan.
field: 11012031
11
12
31
And he maketh the house of high places, and maketh priests of the extremities of the people, who were not of the sons of Levi;
field: 11012032
11
12
32
and Jeroboam maketh a festival in the eighth month, in the fifteenth day of the month, like the festival that `is' in Judah, and he offereth on the altar -- so did he in Beth-El -- to sacrifice to the calves which he made, and he hath appointed in Beth-El the priests of the high places that he made.
field: 11012033
11
12
33
And he offereth up on the altar that he made in Beth-El, on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, in the month that he devised of his own heart, and he maketh a festival to the sons of Israel, and offereth on the altar -- to make perfume.
field: 11013001
11
13
1
And lo, a man of God hath come from Judah, by the word of Jehovah, unto Beth-El, and Jeroboam is standing by the altar -- to make perfume;
field: 11013002
11
13
2
and he calleth against the altar, by the word of Jehovah, and saith, `Altar! altar! thus said Jehovah, Lo, a son is born to the house of David -- Josiah his name -- and he hath sacrificed on thee the priests of the high places who are making perfume on thee, and bones of man are burnt on thee.'
field: 11013003
11
13
3
And he hath given on that day a sign, saying, `This `is' the sign that Jehovah hath spoken, Lo, the altar is rent, and the ashes poured forth that `are' on it.'
field: 11013004
11
13
4
And it cometh to pass, at the king's hearing the word of the man of God that he calleth against the altar in Beth-El, that Jeroboam putteth forth his hand from off the altar, saying, `Catch him;' and his hand is dried up that he hath put forth against him, and he is not able to bring it back unto him,
field: 11013005
11
13
5
and the altar is rent, and the ashes poured forth from the altar, according to the sign that the man of God had given by the word of Jehovah.
field: 11013006
11
13
6
And the king answereth and saith unto the man of God, `Appease, I pray thee, the face of Jehovah thy God, and pray for me, and my hand doth come back unto me;' and the man of God appeaseth the face of Jehovah, and the hand of the king cometh back unto him, and it is as at the beginning.
field: 11013007
11
13
7
And the king speaketh unto the man of God, `Come in with me to the house, and refresh thyself, and I give to thee a gift.'
field: 11013008
11
13
8
And the man of God saith unto the king, `If thou dost give to me the half of thine house, I do not go in with thee, nor do I eat bread, nor do I drink water, in this place;
field: 11013009
11
13
9
for so He commanded me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink water, nor turn back in the way that thou hast come.'
field: 11013010
11
13
10
And he goeth on in another way, and hath not turned back in the way in which he came in unto Beth-El.
field: 11013011
11
13
11
And a certain aged prophet is dwelling in Beth-El, and his son cometh and recounteth to him all the deed that the man of God hath done to-day in Beth-El, the words that he hath spoken unto the king, -- yea, they recount them to their father.
field: 11013012
11
13
12
And their father saith unto them, `Where `is' this -- the way he hath gone?' and his sons see the way that the man of God hath gone who came from Judah.
field: 11013013
11
13
13
And he saith unto his sons, `Saddle for me the ass,' and they saddle for him the ass, and he rideth on it,
field: 11013014
11
13
14
and goeth after the man of God, and findeth him sitting under the oak, and saith unto him, `Art thou the man of God who hast come from Judah?' and he saith, `I `am'.'
field: 11013015
11
13
15
And he saith unto him, `Come with me to the house, and eat bread.'
field: 11013016
11
13
16
And he saith, `I am not able to turn back with thee, and to go in with thee, nor do I eat bread or drink with thee water in this place,
field: 11013017
11
13
17
for a word `is' unto me by the word of Jehovah, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink there water, thou dost not turn back to go in the way in which thou camest.'
field: 11013018
11
13
18
And he saith to him, `I also `am' a prophet like thee, and a messenger spake unto me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Bring him back with thee unto thy house, and he doth eat bread and drink water;' -- he hath lied to him.
field: 11013019
11
13
19
And he turneth back with him, and eateth bread in his house, and drinketh water.
field: 11013020
11
13
20
And it cometh to pass -- they are sitting at the table -- and a word of Jehovah is unto the prophet who brought him back,
field: 11013021
11
13
21
and he calleth unto the man of God who came from Judah, saying, `Thus said Jehovah, Because that thou hast provoked the mouth of Jehovah, and hast not kept the command that Jehovah thy God charged thee,
field: 11013022
11
13
22
and turnest back and dost eat bread and drink water in the place of which He said unto thee, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink water -- thy carcase cometh not in unto the burying-place of thy fathers.'
field: 11013023
11
13
23
And it cometh to pass, after his eating bread, and after his drinking, that he saddleth for him the ass, for the prophet whom he had brought back,
field: 11013024
11
13
24
and he goeth, and a lion findeth him in the way, and putteth him to death, and his carcase is cast in the way, and the ass is standing near it, and the lion is standing near the carcase.
field: 11013025
11
13
25
And lo, men are passing by, and see the carcase cast in the way, and the lion standing near the carcase, and they come and speak `of it' in the city in which the old prophet is dwelling.
field: 11013026
11
13
26
And the prophet who brought him back out of the way heareth and saith, `It `is' the man of God who provoked the mouth of Jehovah, and Jehovah giveth him to the lion, and it destroyeth him, and putteth him to death, according to the word of Jehovah that he spake to him.'
field: 11013027
11
13
27
And he speaketh unto his sons saying, `Saddle for me the ass,' and they saddle `it'.
field: 11013028
11
13
28
And he goeth and findeth his carcase cast in the way, and the ass and the lion are standing near the carcase -- the lion hath not eaten the carcase nor destroyed the ass.
field: 11013029
11
13
29
And the prophet taketh up the carcase of the man of God, and placeth it on the ass, and bringeth it back, and the old prophet cometh in unto the city to mourn and to bury him,
field: 11013030
11
13
30
and he placeth his carcase in his own grave, and they mourn for him, `Oh, my brother!'
field: 11013031
11
13
31
And it cometh to pass, after his burying him, that he speaketh unto his sons, saying, `At my death -- ye have buried me in the burying-place in which the man of God is buried; near his bones place my bones;
field: 11013032
11
13
32
for the word certainly cometh to pass that he called by the word of Jehovah concerning the altar which `is' Beth-El, and concerning all the houses of the high places that `are' in cities of Samaria.'
field: 11013033
11
13
33
After this thing Jeroboam hath not turned from his evil way, and turneth back, and maketh of the extremities of the people priests of high places; he who is desirous he consecrateth his hand, and he is of the priests of the high places.
field: 11013034
11
13
34
And in this thing is the sin of the house of Jeroboam, even to cut `it' off, and to destroy `it' from off the face of the ground.

At that time was Abijah son of Jeroboam sick,

2
and Jeroboam saith to his wife, `Rise, I pray thee, and change thyself, and they know not that thou `art' wife of Jeroboam, and thou hast gone to Shiloh; lo, there `is' Ahijah the prophet; he spake unto me of `being' king over this people;

and thou hast taken in thy hand ten loaves, and crumbs, and a bottle of honey, and hast gone in unto him; he doth declare to thee what becometh of the youth.'

And the wife of Jeroboam doth so, and riseth, and goeth to Shiloh, and entereth the house of Ahijah, and Ahijah is not able to see, for his eyes have stood because of his age.

11

5
And Jehovah said unto Ahijah, `Lo, the wife of Jeroboam is coming to seek a word from thee concerning her son, for he is sick; thus and thus thou dost speak unto her, and it cometh to pass at her coming in, that she is making herself strange.'
field: 11014006
11
14

And it cometh to pass, at Ahijah's hearing the sound of her feet `as' she came in to the opening, that he saith, `Come in, wife of Jeroboam, why is this -- thou art making thyself strange? and I am sent unto thee `with' a sharp thing:

Go, say to Jeroboam, Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Because that I have made thee high out of the midst of the people, and appoint thee leader over my people Israel,

`Therefore, lo, I am bringing in evil unto the house of Jeroboam, and have cut off to Jeroboam those sitting on the wall -- shut up and left -- in Israel, and have put away the posterity of the house of Jeroboam, as one putteth away the dung till its consumption;

18
and they bury him, and mourn for him do all Israel, according to the word of Jehovah, that he spake by the hand of His servant Ahijah the prophet.
field: 11014019
11
14
19
And the rest of the matters of Jeroboam, how he fought, and how he reigned, lo, they are written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel.

And Rehoboam son of Solomon hath reigned in Judah; a son of forty and one years `is' Rehoboam in his reigning, and seventeen years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, the city that Jehovah chose to set His name there, out of all the tribes of Israel, and the name of his mother `is' Naamah the Ammonitess.
field: 11014022
11
14
22
And Judah doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and they make Him zealous above all that their fathers did by their sins that they have sinned.
field: 11014023
11
14
23
And they build -- also they -- for themselves high places, and standing-pillars, and shrines, on every high height, and under every green tree;
field: 11014024
11
14
24
and also a whoremonger hath been in the land; they have done according to all the abominations of the nations that Jehovah dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel.
field: 11014025
11
14
25
And it cometh to pass, in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, gone up hath Shishak king of Egypt against Jerusalem,
field: 11014026
11
14
26
and he taketh the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the house of the king, yea, the whole he hath taken; and he taketh all the shields of gold that Solomon made.
field: 11014027
11
14
27
And king Rehoboam maketh in their stead shields of brass, and hath made `them' a charge on the hand of the heads of the runners, those keeping the opening of the house of the king,
field: 11014028
11
14
28
and it cometh to pass, from the going in of the king to the house of Jehovah, the runners bear them, and have brought them back unto the chamber of the runners.
field: 11014029
11
14
29
And the rest of the matters of Rehoboam, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?

31
and Rehoboam lieth with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers, in the city of David, and the name of his mother `is' Naamah the Ammonitess, and reign doth Abijam his son in his stead.
field: 11015001
11

three years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother `is' Maachah daughter of Abishalom;

11
15

and he walketh in all the sins of his father, that he did before him, and his heart hath not been perfect with Jehovah his God, as the heart of David his father;
field: 11015004
11
15
4
but for David's sake hath Jehovah his God given to him a lamp in Jerusalem, to raise up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem,
field: 11015005
11
15
5
in that David did that which `is' right in the eyes of Jehovah, and turned not aside from all that He commanded him all days of his life -- only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite;
field: 11015006
11
15
6
and war hath been between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.
field: 11015007
11
15
7
And the rest of the matters of Abijam, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah? And war hath been between Abijam and Jeroboam;

and Abijam lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the city of David, and reign doth Asa his son in his stead.

And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel reigned hath Asa over Judah,

10
and forty and one years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother `is' Maachah daughter of Abishalom.
field: 11015011
11
15
11
And Asa doth that which `is' right in the eyes of Jehovah, like David his father,
field: 11015012
11
15
12
and removeth the whoremongers out of the land, and turneth aside all the idols that his fathers made;
field: 11015013
11
15
13
and also Maachah his mother -- he turneth her aside from being mistress, in that she made a horrible thing for a shrine, and Asa cutteth down her horrible thing, and burneth `it' by the brook Kidron;
field: 11015014
11
15
14
and the high places have not turned aside; only, the heart of Asa hath been perfect with Jehovah all his days,
field: 11015015
11
15
15
and he bringeth in the sanctified things of his father, and his own sanctified things, to the house of Jehovah, silver, and gold, and vessels.
field: 11015016
11
15
16
And war hath been between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days,
field: 11015017
11

and Baasha king of Israel goeth up against Judah, and buildeth Ramah, not to permit any one going out and coming in to Asa king of Judah.
field: 11015018
11
15
18
And Asa taketh all the silver and the gold that are left in the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the house of the king, and giveth them into the hand of his servants, and king Asa sendeth them unto Ben-Hadad, son of Tabrimmon, son of Hezion king of Aram, who is dwelling in Damascus, saying,
field: 11015019
11
15
19
`A covenant `is' between me and thee, between my father and thy father; lo, I have sent to thee a reward of silver and gold; go, break thy covenant with Baasha king of Israel, and he goeth up from off me.'
field: 11015020
11
15
20
And Ben-Hadad hearkeneth unto king Asa, and sendeth the heads of the forces that he hath against cities of Israel, and smiteth Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-Beth-Maachah, and all Chinneroth, besides all the land of Naphtali;
field: 11015021
11
15
21
and it cometh to pass at Baasha's hearing, that he ceaseth from building Ramah, and dwelleth in Tirzah.
field: 11015022
11
15
22
And king Asa hath summoned all Judah -- there is none exempt -- and they lift up the stones of Ramah, and its wood, that Baasha hath built, and king Asa buildeth with them Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
field: 11015023
11
15
23
And the rest of all the matters of Asa, and all his might, and all that he did, and the cities that he built, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah? Only, at the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet;
field: 11015024
11
15
24
and Asa lieth with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of David his father, and Jehoshaphat his son reigneth in his stead.
field: 11015025
11
15
25
And Nadab son of Jeroboam hath reigned over Israel, in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and he reigneth over Israel two years,

11
15
26
and doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and goeth in the way of his father, and in his sin that he made Israel to sin.
field: 11015027
11
15
27
And conspire against him doth Baasha son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, and Baasha smiteth him in Gibbethon, which `is' to the Philistines -- and Nadab and all Israel are laying siege against Gibbethon --

28
yea, Baasha putteth him to death in the third year of Asa king of Judah, and reigneth in his stead.

11
15
30
because of the sins of Jeroboam that he sinned, and that he caused Israel to sin, by his provocation with which he provoked to anger Jehovah, God of Israel.

31
And the rest of the matters of Nadab, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?

In the third year of Asa king of Judah reigned hath Baasha son of Ahijah over all Israel in Tirzah, twenty and four years,
field: 11015034
11
15
34
and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and walketh in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin that he caused Israel to sin.
field: 11016001
11
16
1
And a word of Jehovah is unto Jehu son of Hanani, against Baasha, saying,
field: 11016002
11
16
2
`Because that I have raised thee up out of the dust, and appoint thee leader over My people Israel, and thou walkest in the way of Jeroboam, and causest My people Israel to sin -- to provoke Me to anger with their sins;
field: 11016003
11
16
3
lo, I am putting away the posterity of Baasha, even the posterity of his house, and have given up thy house as the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat;
field: 11016004
11
16
4
him who dieth of Baasha in a city do the dogs eat, and him who dieth of his in a field do fowl of the heavens eat.'
field: 11016005
11
16
5
And the rest of the matters of Baasha, and that which he did, and his might, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?
field: 11016006
11

6
And Baasha lieth with his fathers, and is buried in Tirzah, and Elah his son reigneth in his stead.
field: 11016007
11
16
7
And also by the hand of Jehu son of Hanani the prophet a word of Jehovah hath been concerning Baasha, and concerning his house, and concerning all the evil that he did in the eyes of Jehovah to provoke Him to anger with the work of his hands, to be like the house of Jeroboam, and concerning that for which he smote him.
field: 11016008
11
16
8
In the twenty and sixth year of Asa king of Judah reigned hath Elah son of Baasha over Israel in Tirzah, two years;

and conspire against him doth his servant Zimri (head of the half of the chariots) and he `is' in Tirzah drinking -- a drunkard in the house of Arza, who `is' over the house in Tirzah.
field: 11016010
11
16
10
And Zimri cometh in and smiteth him, and putteth him to death, in the twenty and seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and reigneth in his stead;
field: 11016011
11
16
11
and it cometh to pass in his reigning, at his sitting on his throne, he hath smitten the whole house of Baasha; he hath not left to him any sitting on the wall, and of his redeemers, and of his friends.
field: 11016012
11
16
12
And Zimri destroyeth the whole house of Baasha, according to the word of Jehovah, that He spake concerning Baasha, by the hand of Jehu the prophet:
field: 11016013
11
16
13
concerning all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son, that they sinned, and that they caused Israel to sin to provoke Jehovah, God of Israel, with their vanities.
field: 11016014
11
16

And the rest of the matters of Elah, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?
field: 11016015
11
16
15
In the twenty and seventh year of Asa king of Judah, reigned hath Zimri seven days in Tirzah; and the people are encamping against Gibbethon, which `is' to the Philistines;
field: 11016016
11
16
16
and the people who are encamping hear, saying, `Zimri hath conspired, and also hath smitten the king;' and all Israel cause Omri head of the host to reign over Israel on that day in the camp.
field: 11016017
11
16
17
And Omri goeth up, and all Israel with him, from Gibbethon, and they lay siege to Tirzah.
field: 11016018
11
16
18
And it cometh to pass, at Zimri's seeing that the city hath been captured, that he cometh in unto a high place of the house of the king, and burneth over him the house of the king with fire, and dieth,
field: 11016019
11
16
19
for his sins that he sinned, to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, to walk in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin that he did, to cause Israel to sin;

11
16

field: 11016021
11
16
21
Then are the sons of Israel parted into halves; half of the people hath been after Tibni son of Ginath to cause him to reign, and the half after Omri;
field: 11016022
11
16
22
and stronger are the people that are after Omri than the people that are after Tibni son of Ginath, and Tibni dieth, and Omri reigneth.
field: 11016023
11
16
23
In the thirty and first year of Asa king of Judah reigned hath Omri over Israel twelve years; in Tirzah he hath reigned six years,
field: 11016024
11
16
24
and he buyeth the mount Samaria from Shemer, with two talents of silver, and buildeth `on' the mount, and calleth the name of the city that he hath built by the name of Shemer, lord of the hill -- Samaria.
field: 11016025
11
16
25
And Omri doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and doth evil above all who `are' before him,
field: 11016026
11
16
26
and walketh in all the way of Jeroboam son of Nebat, and in his sin that he caused Israel to sin, to provoke Jehovah, God of Israel, with their vanities.
field: 11016027
11
16
27
And the rest of the matters of Omri that he did, and his might that he got, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?
field: 11016028
11
16

field: 11016031
11
16
31
And it cometh to pass -- hath it been light his walking in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat? -- then he taketh a wife, Jezebel daughter of Ethbaal, king of the Zidonians, and goeth and serveth Baal, and boweth himself to it,
field: 11016032
11
16
32
and raiseth up an altar for Baal, in the house of the Baal, that he built in Samaria;
field: 11016033
11
16
33
and Ahab maketh the shrine, and Ahab addeth to do so as to provoke Jehovah, God of Israel, above all the kings of Israel who have been before him.
field: 11016034
11
16
34
In his days hath Hiel the Beth-Elite built Jericho; in Abiram his first-born he laid its foundation, and in Segub his youngest he set up its doors, according to the word of Jehovah that He spake by the hand of Joshua son of Nun.
field: 11017001
11
17
1
And Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, saith unto Ahab, `Jehovah, God of Israel, liveth, before whom I have stood, there is not these years dew and rain, except according to my word.'
field: 11017002
11
17
2
And the word of Jehovah is unto him, saying,
field: 11017003
11
17
3
`Go from this `place'; and thou hast turned for thee eastward, and been hidden by the brook Cherith, that `is' on the front of the Jordan,
field: 11017004
11
17
4
and it hath been, from the brook thou dost drink, and the ravens I have commanded to sustain thee there.'
field: 11017005
11
17
5
And he goeth and doth according to the word of Jehovah, yea, he goeth and dwelleth by the brook Cherith, that `is' on the front of the Jordan,
field: 11017006
11
17
6
and the ravens are bringing to him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening, and of the brook he drinketh.
field: 11017007
11
17
7
And it cometh to pass, at the end of days, that the brook drieth up, for there hath been no rain in the land,
field: 11017008
11
17
8
and the word of Jehovah is unto him, saying,
field: 11017009
11
17
9
`Rise, go to Zarephath, that `is' to Zidon, and thou hast dwelt there; lo, I have commanded there a widow woman to sustain thee.'
field: 11017010
11
17
10
And he riseth, and goeth to Zarephath, and cometh in unto the opening of the city, and lo there, a widow woman gathering sticks, and he calleth unto her, and saith, `Bring, I pray thee, to me, a little water in a vessel, and I drink.'
field: 11017011
11
17
11
And she goeth to bring `it', and he calleth unto her and saith, `Bring, I pray thee, to me a morsel of bread in thy hand.'
field: 11017012
11
17
12
And she saith, `Jehovah thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but the fulness of the hand of meal in a pitcher, and a little oil in a dish; and lo, I am gathering two sticks, and have gone in and prepared it for myself, and for my son, and we have eaten it -- and died.'
field: 11017013
11
17
13
And Elijah saith unto her, `Fear not, go, do according to thy word, only make for me thence a little cake, in the first place, and thou hast brought out to me; and for thee and for thy son make -- last;
field: 11017014
11
17
14
for thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, The pitcher of meal is not consumed, and the dish of oil is not lacking, till the day of Jehovah's giving a shower on the face of the ground.'
field: 11017015
11
17
15
And she goeth, and doth according to the word of Elijah, and she eateth, she and he, and her household -- days;
field: 11017016
11
17
16
the pitcher of meal was not consumed, and the dish of oil did not lack, according to the word of Jehovah that He spake by the hand of Elijah.
field: 11017017
11
17
17
And it cometh to pass, after these things, the son of the woman, mistress of the house, hath been sick, and his sickness is very severe till that no breath hath been left in him.
field: 11017018
11
17
18
And she saith unto Elijah, `What -- to me and to thee, O man of God? thou hast come unto me to cause mine iniquity to be remembered, and to put my son to death!'
field: 11017019
11
17
19
And he saith unto her, `Give to me thy son;' and he taketh him out of her bosom, and taketh him up unto the upper chamber where he is abiding, and layeth him on his own bed,
field: 11017020
11
17
20
and crieth unto Jehovah, and saith, `Jehovah my God, also on the widow with whom I am sojourning hast Thou done evil -- to put her son to death?'
field: 11017021
11
17
21
And he stretcheth himself out on the lad three times, and calleth unto Jehovah, and saith, `O Jehovah my God, let turn back, I pray Thee, the soul of this lad into his midst;'
field: 11017022
11
17
22
and Jehovah hearkeneth to the voice of Elijah, and the soul of the lad turneth back into his midst, and he liveth.
field: 11017023
11
17
23
And Elijah taketh the lad, and bringeth him down from the upper chamber of the house, and giveth him to his mother, and Elijah saith, `See, thy son liveth!'
field: 11017024
11
17
24
And the woman saith unto Elijah, `Now, this I have known, that a man of God thou `art', and the word of Jehovah in thy mouth `is' truth.'
field: 11018001
11
18
1
And the days are many, and the word of Jehovah hath been unto Elijah in the third year, saying, `Go, appear unto Ahab, and I give rain on the face of the ground;'
field: 11018002
11
18
2
and Elijah goeth to appear unto Ahab. And the famine is severe in Samaria,
field: 11018003
11
18
3
and Ahab calleth unto Obadiah, who `is' over the house -- and Obadiah hath been fearing Jehovah greatly,
field: 11018004
11
18
4
and it cometh to pass, in Jezebel's cutting off the prophets of Jehovah, that Obadiah taketh a hundred prophets, and hideth them, fifty men in a cave, and hath sustained them with bread and water --
field: 11018005
11
18

and Ahab saith unto Obadiah, `Go through the land, unto all fountains of waters, and unto all the brooks, if so be we find hay, and keep alive horse and mule, and do not cut off any of the cattle.'
field: 11018006
11
18

And they apportion to themselves the land, to pass over into it; Ahab hath gone in one way by himself, and Obadiah hath gone in another way by himself;
field: 11018007
11
18
7
and Obadiah `is' in the way, and lo, Elijah -- to meet him; and he discerneth him, and falleth on his face, and saith, `Art thou he -- my lord Elijah?'
field: 11018008
11
18
8
And he saith to him, `I `am'; go, say to thy lord, Lo, Elijah.'
field: 11018009
11
18

And he saith, `What have I sinned, that thou art giving thy servant into the hand of Ahab -- to put me to death?
field: 11018010
11
18
10
Jehovah thy God liveth, if there is a nation and kingdom whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee; and they said, He is not, then he caused the kingdom and the nation to swear, that it doth not find thee;

11
and now, thou art saying, Go, say to thy lord, Lo, Elijah;

18
12
and it hath been, I go from thee, and the Spirit of Jehovah doth lift thee up, whither I know not, and I have come to declare to Ahab, and he doth not find thee, and he hath slain me; and thy servant is fearing Jehovah from my youth.

`Hath it not been declared to my lord that which I have done in Jezebel's slaying the prophets of Jehovah, that I hide of the prophets of Jehovah a hundred men, fifty by fifty in a cave, and sustained them with bread and water?

And Obadiah goeth to meet Ahab, and declareth `it' to him, and Ahab goeth to meet Elijah,
field: 11018017
11
18
17
and it cometh to pass at Ahab's seeing Elijah, that Ahab saith unto him, `Art thou he -- the troubler of Israel?'
field: 11018018
11
18
18
And he saith, `I have not troubled Israel, but thou and the house of thy father, in your forsaking the commands of Jehovah, and thou goest after the Baalim;
field: 11018019
11
18
19
and now, send, gather unto me all Israel, unto the mount of Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the shrine, four hundred -- eating at the table of Jezebel.'
field: 11018020
11
18
20
And Ahab sendeth among all the sons of Israel, and gathereth the prophets unto the mount of Carmel;
field: 11018021
11
18
21
and Elijah cometh nigh unto all the people, and saith, `Till when are ye leaping on the two branches? -- if Jehovah `is' God, go after Him; and if Baal, go after him;' and the people have not answered him a word.
field: 11018022
11
18
22
And Elijah saith unto the people, `I -- I have been left a prophet of Jehovah -- by myself; and the prophets of Baal `are' four hundred and fifty men;
field: 11018023
11
18
23
and let them give to us two bullocks, and they choose for themselves the one bullock, and cut it in pieces, and place `it' on the wood, and place no fire; and I -- I prepare the other bullock, and have put `it' on the wood, and fire I do not place; --
field: 11018024
11
18
24
and ye have called in the name of your god, and I -- I call in the name of Jehovah, and it hath been, the god who answereth by fire -- He `is' the God.' And all the people answer and say, `Good `is' the word.'
field: 11018025
11
18
25
And Elijah saith to the prophets of Baal, `Choose for you the one bullock, and prepare first, for ye `are' the multitude, and call ye in the name of your god, and place no fire.'
field: 11018026
11
18
26
And they take the bullock that `one' gave to them, and prepare, and call in the name of Baal from the morning even till the noon, saying, `O Baal, answer us!' and there is no voice, and there is none answering; and they leap on the altar that one had made.
field: 11018027
11
18
27
And it cometh to pass, at noon, that Elijah playeth on them, and saith, `Call with a loud voice, for he `is' a god, for he is meditating, or pursuing, or on a journey; it may be he is asleep, an doth awake.'
field: 11018028
11
18
28
And they call with a loud voice, and cut themselves, according to their ordinance, with swords and with spears, till a flowing of blood `is' on them;
field: 11018029
11
18
29
and it cometh to pass, at the passing by of the noon, that they feign themselves prophets till the going up of the present, and there is no voice, and there is none answering, and there is none attending.
field: 11018030
11
18
30
And Elijah saith to all the people, `Come nigh unto me;' and all the people come nigh unto him, and he repaireth the altar of Jehovah that is broken down;
field: 11018031
11
18
31
and Elijah taketh twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of Jehovah was, saying, `Israel is thy name;'
field: 11018032
11
18
32
and he buildeth with the stones an altar, in the name of Jehovah, and maketh a trench, as about the space of two measures of seed, round about the altar.
field: 11018033
11
18
33
And he arrangeth the wood, and cutteth in pieces the bullock, and placeth `it' on the wood, and saith, `Fill ye four pitchers of water, and pour on the burnt-offering, and on the wood;
field: 11018034
11
18
34
and he saith, `Do `it' a second time;' and they do `it' a second time; and he saith, `Do `it' a third time;' and they do `it' a third time;
field: 11018035
11
18
35
and the water goeth round about the altar, and also, the trench he hath filled with water.
field: 11018036
11
18
36
And it cometh to pass, at the going up of the `evening-'present, that Elijah the prophet cometh nigh and saith, `Jehovah, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, to-day let it be known that Thou `art' God in Israel, and I Thy servant, that by Thy word I have done the whole of these things;
field: 11018037
11
18
37
answer me, O Jehovah, answer me, and this people doth know that Thou `art' Jehovah God; and Thou hast turned their heart backward.'
field: 11018038
11
18
38
And there falleth a fire of Jehovah, and consumeth the burnt-offering, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and the water that `is' in the trench it hath licked up.
field: 11018039
11
18
39
And all the people see, and fall on their faces, and say, `Jehovah, He `is' the God, Jehovah, He `is' the God.'
field: 11018040
11
18
40
And Elijah saith to them, `Catch ye the prophets of Baal; let not a man escape of them;' and they catch them, and Elijah bringeth them down unto the stream Kishon, and doth slaughter them there.
field: 11018041
11
18
41
And Elijah saith to Ahab, `Go up, eat and drink, because of the sound of the noise of the shower.'
field: 11018042
11
18
42
And Ahab goeth up to eat, and to drink, and Elijah hath gone up unto the top of Carmel, and he stretcheth himself out on the earth, and he placeth his face between his knees,
field: 11018043
11
18
43
and saith unto his young man, `Go up, I pray thee, look attentively the way of the sea;' and he goeth up and looketh attentively, and saith, `There is nothing;' and he saith, `Turn back,' seven times.
field: 11018044
11
18
44
And it cometh to pass, at the seventh, that he saith, `Lo, a little thickness as the palm of a man is coming up out of the sea.' And he saith, `Go up, say unto Ahab, `Bind -- and go down, and the shower doth not restrain thee.'
field: 11018045
11
18
45
And it cometh to pass, in the meantime, that the heavens have become black -- thick clouds and wind -- and the shower is great; and Ahab rideth, and goeth to Jezreel,
field: 11018046
11
18
46
and the hand of Jehovah hath been on Elijah, and he girdeth up his loins, and runneth before Ahab, till thine entering Jezreel.
field: 11019001
11

1
And Ahab declareth to Jezebel all that Elijah did, and all how he slew all the prophets by the sword,
field: 11019002
11
19
2
and Jezebel sendeth a messenger unto Elijah, saying, `Thus doth the gods, and thus do they add, surely about this time to-morrow, I make thy life as the life of one of them.'
field: 11019003
11
19
3
And he feareth, and riseth, and goeth for his life, and cometh in to Beer-Sheba, that `is' Judah's, and leaveth his young man there,

11
19
4
and he himself hath gone into the wilderness a day's Journey, and cometh and sitteth under a certain retem-tree, and desireth his soul to die, and saith, `Enough, now, O Jehovah, take my soul, for I `am' not better than my fathers.'
field: 11019005
11
19
5
And he lieth down and sleepeth under a certain retem-tree, and lo, a messenger cometh against him, and saith to him, `Rise, eat;'
field: 11019006
11
19
6
and he looketh attentively, and lo, at his bolster a cake `baken on' burning stones, and a dish of water, and he eateth, and drinketh, and turneth, and lieth down.
field: 11019007
11
19
7
And the messenger of Jehovah turneth back a second time, and cometh against him, and saith, `Rise, eat, for the way is too great for thee;'
field: 11019008
11
19
8
and he riseth, and eateth, and drinketh, and goeth in the power of that food forty days and forty nights, unto the mount of God -- Horeb.
field: 11019009
11
19
9
And he cometh in there, unto the cave, and lodgeth there, and lo, the word of Jehovah `is' unto him, and saith to him, `What -- to thee, here, Elijah?'
field: 11019010
11
19
10
And he saith, `I have been very zealous for Jehovah, God of Hosts, for the sons of Israel have forsaken Thy covenant -- Thine altars they have thrown down, and Thy prophets they have slain by the sword, and I am left, I, by myself, and they seek my life -- to take it.'
field: 11019011
11
19
11
And He saith, `Go out, and thou hast stood in the mount before Jehovah.' And lo, Jehovah is passing by, and a wind -- great and strong -- is rending mountains, and shivering rocks before Jehovah: -- not in the wind `is' Jehovah; and after the wind a shaking: -- not in the shaking `is' Jehovah;

12
and after the shaking a fire: -- not in the fire `is' Jehovah; and after the fire a voice still small;
field: 11019013
11
19
13
and it cometh to pass, at Elijah's hearing `it', that he wrappeth his face in his robe, and goeth out, and standeth at the opening of the cave, and lo, unto him `is' a voice, and it saith, `What -- to thee, here, Elijah?'
field: 11019014
11
19
14
And he saith, `I have been very zealous for Jehovah, God of Hosts; for the sons of Israel have forsaken Thy covenant, Thine altars they have thrown down, and Thy prophets they have slain by the sword, and I am left, I, by myself, and they seek my life -- to take it.'
field: 11019015
11
19
15
And Jehovah saith unto him, `Go turn back on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus, and thou hast gone in, and anointed Hazael for king over Aram,

11
19
16
and Jehu son of Nimshi thou dost anoint for king over Israel, and Elisha son of Shaphat, of Abel-Meholah, thou dost anoint for prophet in thy stead.

`And it hath been, him who is escaped from the sword of Hazael, put to death doth Jehu, and him who is escaped from the sword of Jehu put to death doth Elisha;

and I have left in Israel seven thousand, all the knees that have not bowed to Baal, and every mouth that hath not kissed him.'

11
19
19
And he goeth thence, and findeth Elisha son of Shaphat, and he is plowing; twelve yoke `are' before him, and he `is' with the twelfth; and Elijah passeth over unto him, and casteth his robe upon him,

11
19
20
and he forsaketh the oxen, and runneth after Elijah, and saith, `Let me give a kiss, I pray thee, to my father and to my mother, and I go after thee.' And he saith to him, `Go, turn back, for what have I done to thee?'
field: 11019021
11
19
21
And he turneth back from after him, and taketh the yoke of oxen, and sacrificeth it, and with instruments of the oxen he hath boiled their flesh, and giveth to the people, and they eat, and he riseth, and goeth after Elijah, and serveth him.

And Ben-Hadad king of Aram hath gathered all his force, and thirty and two kings `are' with him, and horse and chariot, and he goeth up and layeth siege against Samaria, and fighteth with it,

11
20
2
and sendeth messengers unto Ahab king of Israel, to the city,
field: 11020003
11
20
3
and saith to him, `Thus said Ben-Hadad, `Thy silver and thy gold are mine, and thy wives and thy sons -- the best -- are mine.'

And the king of Israel answereth and saith, `According to thy word, my lord, O king: I `am' thine, and all that I have.'

And the messengers turn back and say, `Thus spake Ben-Hadad, saying, Surely I sent unto thee, saying, Thy silver, and thy gold, and thy wives, and thy sons, to me thou dost give;

for if, at this time to-morrow, I send my servants unto thee then they have searched thy house, and the houses of thy servants, and it hath been, every desirable thing of thine eyes they place in their hand, and have taken away.'

And the king of Israel calleth to all the elders of the land, and saith, `Know, I pray you, and see that evil this `one' is seeking, for he sent unto me for my wives, and for my sons, and for my silver, and for my gold, and I withheld not from him.'

And all the elders and all the people say unto him, `Do not hearken, nor consent.'

And he saith to the messengers of Ben-Hadad, `Say to my lord the king, All that thou didst send for unto thy servant at the first I do, and this thing I am not able to do;' and the messengers go and take him back word.
field: 11020010

And Ben-Hadad sendeth unto him, and saith, `Thus do the gods to me, and thus do they add, if the dust of Samaria suffice for handfuls for all the people who `are' at my feet.'

11

And the king of Israel answereth and saith, `Speak ye: let not him who is girding on boast himself as him who is loosing `his armour'.'
field: 11020012
11
20
12
And it cometh to pass at the hearing of this word -- and he is drinking, he and the kings, in the booths -- that he saith unto his servants, `Set yourselves;' and they set themselves against the city.

11
20

And lo, a certain prophet hath come nigh unto Ahab king of Israel, and saith, `Thus said Jehovah, `Hast thou seen all this great multitude? lo, I am giving it into thy hand to-day, and thou hast known that I `am' Jehovah.'

And Ahab saith, `By whom?' and he saith, `Thus said Jehovah, By the young men of the heads of the provinces;' and he saith, `Who doth direct the battle?' and he saith, `Thou.'

11
20
15
And he inspecteth the young men of the heads of the provinces, and they are two hundred, two and thirty, and after them he hath inspecteth the whole of the people, all the sons of Israel, seven thousand,

11
20
16
and they go out at noon, and Ben-Hadad is drinking -- drunk in the booths, he and the kings, the thirty and two kings, helping him.
field: 11020017
11
20
17
And the young men of the heads of the provinces go out at the first, and Ben-Hadad sendeth, and they declare to him, saying, `Men have come out of Samaria.'

11
20
18
And he saith, `If for peace they have come out -- catch them alive; and if for battle they have come out -- alive catch them.'
field: 11020019
11
20
19
And these have gone out of the city -- the young men of the heads of the provinces -- and the force that `is' after them,
field: 11020020
11
20
20
and smite each his man, and Aram fleeth, and Israel pursueth them, and Ben-Hadad king of Aram escapeth on a horse, and the horsemen;

11
20
21
and the king of Israel goeth out, and smiteth the horses, and the charioteers, and hath smitten among the Aramaeans a great smiting.

11
20
22
And the prophet cometh nigh unto the king of Israel, and saith to him, `Go, strengthen thyself, and know and see that which thou dost, for at the turn of the year the king of Aram is coming up against thee.'
field: 11020023
11
20
23
And the servants of the king of Aram said unto him, `Gods of hills `are' their gods, therefore they were stronger than we; and yet, we fight with them in the plain -- are we not stronger than they?
field: 11020024
11
20
24
`And this thing do thou: turn aside the kings each out of his place, and set captains in their stead;

25
and thou, number to thee a force as the force that is fallen from thee, and horse for horse, and chariot for chariot, and we fight with them in the plain; are we not stronger than they?' and he hearkeneth to their voice, and doth so.
field: 11020026
11
20
26
And it cometh to pass at the turn of the year, that Ben-Hadad inspecteth the Aramaeans, and goeth up to Aphek, to battle with Israel,
field: 11020027
11
20
27
and the sons of Israel have been inspected, and supported, and go to meet them, and the sons of Israel encamp before them, like two flocks of goats, and the Aramaeans have filled the land.
field: 11020028
11
20
28
And there cometh nigh a man of God, and speaketh unto the king of Israel, and saith, `Thus said Jehovah, Because that the Aramaeans have said, God of hills `is' Jehovah, and He `is' not God of valleys -- I have given the whole of this great multitude into thy hand, and ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.'

And they encamp one over-against another seven days, and it cometh to pass on the seventh day, that the battle draweth near, and the sons of Israel smite Aram -- a hundred thousand footmen in one day.

And those left flee to Aphek, unto the city, and the wall falleth on twenty and seven chief men who are left, and Ben-Hadad hath fled, and cometh in unto the city, into the innermost part.

And his servants say unto him, `Lo, we pray thee, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel -- that they are kind kings; let us put, we pray thee, sackcloth on our loins, and ropes on our heads, and we go out unto the king of Israel; it may be he doth keep thee alive.'

And they gird sackcloth on their loins, and ropes `are' on their heads, and they come in unto the king of Israel, and say, `Thy servant Ben-Hadad hath said, Let me live, I pray thee;' and he saith, `Is he yet alive? he `is' my brother.'

11
20
33
And the men observe diligently, and hasten, and catch it from him, and say, `Thy brother Ben-Hadad;' and he saith, `Go ye in, bring him;' and Ben-Hadad cometh out unto him, and he causeth him to come up on the chariot.
field: 11020034

And he saith unto him, `The cities that my father took from thy father, I give back, and streets thou dost make for thee in Damascus, as my father did in Samaria;' -- `and I, with a covenant, send thee away;' and he maketh with him a covenant, and sendeth him away.

And a certain man of the sons of the prophets said unto his neighbour by the word of Jehovah, `Smite me, I pray thee;' and the man refuseth to smite him,

20
36
and he saith to him, `Because that thou hast not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah, lo, thou art going from me, and the lion hath smitten thee;' and he goeth from him, and the lion findeth him, and smiteth him.

And he findeth another man, and saith, `Smite me, I pray thee;' and the man smiteth him, smiting and wounding,

and the prophet goeth and standeth for the king on the way, and disguiseth himself with ashes on his eyes.

And it cometh to pass -- the king is passing by -- that he hath cried unto the king, and saith, `Thy servant went out into the midst of the battle, and lo, a man hath turned aside and bringeth in unto me a man, and saith, Keep this man; if he be at all missing, then hath thy life been for his life, or a talent of silver thou dost weigh out;

And he hasteth and turneth aside the ashes from off his eyes, and the king of Israel discerneth him, that he `is' of the prophets,

and the king of Israel goeth unto his house, sulky and wroth, and cometh in to Samaria.

And it cometh to pass, after these things, a vineyard hath been to Naboth the Jezreelite, that `is' in Jezreel, near the palace of Ahab king of Samaria,

and Ahab speaketh unto Naboth, saying, `Give to me thy vineyard, and it is to me for a garden of green herbs, for it `is' near by my house, and I give to thee in its stead a better vineyard than it; if good in thine eyes, I give to thee silver -- its price.'

And Naboth saith unto Ahab, `Far be it from me, by Jehovah, my giving the inheritance of my fathers to thee;'

and Ahab cometh in unto his house, sulky and wroth, because of the word that Naboth the Jezreelite hath spoken unto him when he saith, `I do not give to thee the inheritance of my fathers,' and he lieth down on his bed, and turneth round his face, and hath not eaten bread.

And Jezebel his wife cometh in unto him, and speaketh unto him, `What `is' this? -- thy spirit sulky, and thou art not eating bread!'

And he saith unto her, `Because I speak unto Naboth the Jezreelite, and say to him, Give to me thy vineyard for money, or if thou desire, I give to thee a vineyard in its stead; and he saith, I do not give to thee my vineyard.'

And it cometh to pass, at Jezebel's hearing that Naboth hath been stoned, and is dead, that Jezebel saith unto Ahab, `Rise, possess the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, that he refused to give to thee for money, for Naboth is not alive but dead.'

18
`Rise, go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, who `is' in Samaria, -- lo, in the vineyard of Naboth, whither he hath gone down to possess it,

And Ahab saith unto Elijah, `Hast thou found me, O mine enemy?' and he saith, `I have found -- because of thy selling thyself to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah;

21
21

him who dieth of Ahab in a city do the dogs eat, and him who dieth in a field do fowl of the heavens eat;

surely there hath none been like Ahab, who sold himself to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, whom Jezebel his wife hath moved,

and he doth very abominably to go after the idols, according to all that the Amorite did whom Jehovah dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel.'

and goeth and sendeth unto Jehoshaphat king of Judah, saying, `The king of Moab hath transgressed against me; dost thou go with me unto Moab for battle?' and he saith, `I go up, as I, so thou; as my people, so thy people; as my horses, so thy horses.

And the king of Israel goeth, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom, and they turn round the way seven days, and there hath been no water for the camp, and for the cattle that `are' at their feet,

10
and the king of Israel saith, `Alas, for Jehovah hath called for these three kings, to give them into the hand of Moab.'

11
And Jehoshaphat saith, `Is there not here a prophet of Jehovah, and we seek Jehovah by him?' And one of the servants of the king of Israel answereth and saith, `Here `is' Elisha son of Shaphat, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.'

And Jehoshaphat saith, `The word of Jehovah is with him;' and go down unto him do the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat, and the king of Edom.

And Elisha saith unto the king of Israel, `What -- to me and to thee? go unto the prophets of thy father, and unto the prophets of thy mother;' and the king of Israel saith to him, `Nay, for Jehovah hath called for these three kings to give them into the hand of Moab.'

And Elisha saith, `Jehovah of Hosts liveth, before whom I have stood; for unless the face of Jehoshaphat king of Judah I am lifting up, I do not look unto thee, nor see thee;

and now, bring to me a minstrel; and it hath been, at the playing of the minstrel, that the hand of Jehovah is on him,

12

16
and he saith, `Thus said Jehovah, Make this valley ditches -- ditches;

17
for thus said Jehovah, Ye do not see wind, nor do ye see rain, and that valley is full of water, and ye have drunk -- ye, and your cattle, and your beasts.

`And this hath been light in the eyes of Jehovah, and he hath given Moab into your hand,

and ye have smitten every fenced city, and every choice city, and every good tree ye cause to fall, and all fountains of waters ye stop, and every good portion ye mar with stones.'

And it cometh to pass in the morning, at the ascending of the `morning'-present, that lo, waters are coming in from the way of Edom, and the land is filled with the waters,

And they rise early in the morning, and the sun hath shone on the waters, and the Moabites see, from over-against, the waters red as blood,

and say, `Blood this `is'; the kings have been surely destroyed, and they smite each his neighbour; and now for spoil, Moab!'
field: 12003024

24
And they come in unto the camp of Israel, and the Israelites rise, and smite the Moabites, and they flee from their face; and they enter into Moab, so as to smite Moab,

25
and the cities they break down, and `on' every good portion they cast each his stone, and have filled it, and every fountain of water they stop, and every good tree they cause to fall -- till one had left its stones in Kir-Haraseth, and the slingers go round and smite it.

And the king of Moab seeth that the battle has been too strong for him, and he taketh with him seven hundred men, drawing sword, to cleave through unto the king of Edom, and they have not been able,

and he taketh his son, the first-born who reigneth in his stead, and causeth him to ascend -- a burnt-offering on the wall, and there is great wrath against Israel, and they journey from off him, and turn back to the land.

And a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets hath cried unto Elisha, saying, `Thy servant, my husband, is dead, and thou hast known that thy servant was fearing Jehovah, and the lender hath come to take my two children to him for servants.'

And Elisha saith unto her, `What do I do for thee? declare to me, what hast thou in the house?' and she saith, `Thy maid-servant hath nothing in the house except a pot of oil.'

And he saith, `Go, ask for thee vessels from without, from all thy neighbours -- empty vessels -- let `them' not be few;

and thou hast entered, and shut the door upon thee, and upon thy sons, and hast poured out into all these vessels, and the full ones thou dost remove.'

And she goeth from him, and shutteth the door upon her, and upon her sons; they are bringing nigh unto her, and she is pouring out,

and it cometh to pass, at the filling of the vessels, that she saith unto her son, `Bring nigh unto me a vessel more,' and he saith unto her, `There is not a vessel more;' and the oil stayeth.

And the day cometh that Elisha passeth over unto Shunem, and there `is' a great woman, and she layeth hold on him to eat bread, and it cometh to pass, at the time of his passing over, he turneth aside thither to eat bread,

And the day cometh, that he cometh in thither, and turneth aside unto the upper chamber, and lieth there,

And he saith to him, `Say, I pray thee, unto her, Lo, thou hast troubled thyself concerning us with all this trouble; what -- to do for thee? is it to speak for thee unto the king, or unto the head of the host?' and she saith, `In the midst of my people I am dwelling.'

And he saith, `And what -- to do for her?' and Gehazi saith, `Verily she hath no son, and her husband `is' aged.'

And he saith, `Call for her;' and he calleth for her, and she standeth at the opening,

And the lad groweth, and the day cometh that he goeth out unto his father, unto the reapers,

And she goeth up, and layeth him on the bed of the man of God, and shutteth `the door' upon him, and goeth out,

and calleth unto her husband, and saith, `Send, I pray thee, to me, one of the young men, and one of the asses, and I run unto the man of God, and return.'

And she saddleth the ass, and saith unto her young man, `Lead, and go, do not restrain riding for me, except I have said `so' to thee.'

And she goeth, and cometh in unto the man of God, unto the hill of Carmel, and it cometh to pass, at the man of God's seeing her from over-against, that he saith unto Gehazi his young man, `Lo, this Shunammite;

And she cometh in unto the man of God, unto the hill, and layeth hold on his feet, and Gehazi cometh nigh to thrust her away, and the man of God saith, `Let her alone, for her soul `is' bitter to her, and Jehovah hath hidden `it' from me, and hath not declared `it' to me.'

And she saith, `Did I ask a son from my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me?'

And he saith to Gehazi, `Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thy hand, and go; when thou dost meet a man, thou dost not salute him; and when a man doth salute thee, thou dost not answer him; and thou hast laid my staff on the face of the youth.'

And the mother of the youth saith, `Jehovah liveth, and thy soul liveth -- if I leave thee;' and he riseth and goeth after her.

31
And Gehazi hath passed on before them, and layeth the staff on the face of the youth, and there is no voice, and there is no attention, and he turneth back to meet him, and declareth to him, saying, `The youth hath not awaked.'
field: 12004032

32
And Elisha cometh in to the house, and lo, the youth is dead, laid on his bed,

33
and he goeth in and shutteth the door upon them both, and prayeth unto Jehovah.

12
4
34
And he goeth up, and lieth down on the lad, and putteth his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands, and stretcheth himself upon him, and the flesh of the lad becometh warm;

35
and he turneth back and walketh in the house, once hither and once thither, and goeth up and stretcheth himself upon him, and the youth sneezeth till seven times, and the youth openeth his eyes.

And he calleth unto Gehazi, and saith, `Call unto this Shunammite;' and he calleth her, and she cometh in unto him, and he saith, `Lift up thy son.'

And she goeth in, and falleth at his feet, and boweth herself to the earth, and lifteth up her son, and goeth out.

And Elisha hath turned back to Gilgal, and the famine `is' in the land, and the sons of the prophets are sitting before him, and he saith to his young man, `Set on the great pot, and boil pottage for the sons of the prophets.'

39
And one goeth out unto the field to gather herbs, and findeth a vine of the field, and gathereth of it gourds of the field -- the fulness of his garment -- and cometh in and splitteth `them' into the pot of pottage, for they knew `them' not;

and they pour out for the men to eat, and it cometh to pass at their eating of the pottage, that they have cried out, and say, `Death `is' in the pot, O man of God!' and they have not been able to eat.

And the Aramaeans have gone out `by' troops, and they take captive out of the land of Israel a little damsel, and she is before the wife of Naaman,

And the king of Aram saith, `Go thou, enter, and I send a letter unto the king of Israel;' and he goeth and taketh in his hand ten talents of silver, and six thousand `pieces' of gold, and ten changes of garments.

And he bringeth in the letter unto the king of Israel, saying, `And now, at the coming in of this letter unto thee, lo, I have sent unto thee Naaman my servant, and thou hast recovered him from his leprosy.'

And it cometh to pass, at the king of Israel's reading the letter, that he rendeth his garments, and saith, `Am I God, to put to death and to keep alive, that this `one' is sending unto me to recover a man from his leprosy? for surely know, I pray you, and see, for he is presenting himself to me.'

And Naaman cometh, with his horses and with his chariot, and standeth at the opening of the house for Elisha;

And Naaman is wroth, and goeth on, and saith, `Lo, I said, Unto me he doth certainly come out, and hath stood and called in the name of Jehovah his God, and waved his hand over the place, and recovered the leper.

Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? do I not wash in them and I have been clean?' and he turneth and goeth on in fury.

And his servants come nigh, and speak unto him, and say, `My father, a great thing had the prophet spoken unto thee -- dost thou not do `it'? and surely, when he hath said unto thee, Wash, and be clean.'

And he turneth back unto the man of God, he and all his camp, and cometh in, and standeth before him, and saith, `Lo, I pray thee, I have known that there is not a God in all the earth except in Israel; and now, take, I pray thee, a blessing from thy servant.'

And Naaman saith, `If not -- let be given, I pray thee, to thy servant, a couple of mules' burden of earth, for thy servant doth make no more burnt-offering and sacrifice to other gods, but to Jehovah.

For this thing Jehovah be propitious to thy servant, in the coming in of my lord into the house of Rimmon to bow himself there, and he was supported by my hand, and I bowed myself `in' the house of Rimmon; for my bowing myself in the house of Rimmon Jehovah be propitious, I pray thee, to thy servant in this thing.'

And he sendeth thither horses and chariot, and a heavy force, and they come in by night, and go round against the city.

And he saith, `Thou dost not smite; those whom thou hast taken captive with thy sword and with thy bow art thou smiting? set bread and water before them, and they eat, and drink, and go unto their lord.'

23
And he prepareth for them great provision, and they eat and drink, and he sendeth them away, and they go unto their lord: and troops of Aram have not added any more to come in to the land of Israel.
field: 12006024
12

24
And it cometh to pass afterwards, that Ben-Hadad king of Aram gathereth all his camp, and goeth up, and layeth siege to Samaria,
field: 12006025
12

25
and there is a great famine in Samaria, and lo, they are laying siege to it, till the head of an ass is at eighty silverlings, and a forth of the cab of dovesdung at five silverlings.
field: 12006026
12

And it cometh to pass, the king of Israel is passing by on the wall, and a woman hath cried unto him, saying, `Save, my lord, O king.'
field: 12006027
12
6
27
And he saith, `Jehovah doth not save thee -- whence do I save thee? out of the threshing-floor, or out of the wine-vat?'
field: 12006028
12

28
And the king saith to her, `What -- to thee?' and she saith, `This woman said unto me, Give thy son, and we eat him to-day, and my son we eat to-morrow;
field: 12006029
12
6
29
and we boil my son and eat him, and I say unto her on the next day, Give thy son, and we eat him; and she hideth her son.'
field: 12006030
12

30
And it cometh to pass, at the king's hearing the words of the woman, that he rendeth his garments, and he is passing by on the wall, and the people see, and lo, the sackcloth `is' on his flesh within.
field: 12006031
12

31
And he saith, `Thus doth God do to me, and thus He doth add -- if it remain -- the head of Elisha son of Shaphat -- upon him this day.'
field: 12006032
12
6
32
And Elisha is sitting in his house, and the elders are sitting with him, and `the king' sendeth a man from before him; before the messenger doth come unto him, even he himself said unto the elders, `Have ye seen that this son of the murderer hath sent to turn aside my head? see, at the coming in of the messenger, shut the door, and ye have held him fast at the door, is not the sound of the feet of his lord behind him?'
field: 12006033
12

33
He is yet speaking with them, and lo, the messenger is coming down unto him, and he saith, `Lo, this `is' the evil from Jehovah: what -- do I wait for Jehovah any more?'
field: 12007001
12

And Elisha saith, `Hear ye a word of Jehovah: thus said Jehovah, About this time to-morrow, a measure of fine flour `is' at a shekel, and two measures of barley at a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.'
field: 12007002
12

And the captain whom the king hath, by whose hand he hath been supported, answereth the man of God and saith, `Lo, Jehovah is making windows in the heavens -- shall this thing be?' and he saith, `Lo, thou art seeing it with thine eyes, and thereof thou dost not eat.'
field: 12007003
12

And four men have been leprous, at the opening of the gate, and they say one unto another, `What -- we are sitting here till we have died;
field: 12007004
12
7
4
if we have said, We go in to the city, then the famine `is' in the city, and we have died there; and if we have sat here, then we have died; and now, come and we fall unto the camp of Aram; if they keep us alive, we live, and if they put us to death -- we have died.'
field: 12007005
12

And they rise in the twilight, to go in unto the camp of Aram, and they come in unto the extremity of the camp of Aram, and lo, there is not a man there,
field: 12007006
12
7
6
seeing Jehovah hath caused the camp of Aram to hear a noise of chariot and a noise of horse -- a noise of great force, and they say one unto another, `Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of Egypt, to come against us.'
field: 12007007
12
7
7
And they rise and flee in the twilight, and forsake their tents, and their horses, and their asses -- the camp as it `is' -- and flee for their life.
field: 12007008
12
7
8
And these lepers come in unto the extremity of the camp, and come in unto one tent, and eat, and drink, and lift up thence silver, and gold, and garments, and go and hide; and they turn back and go in unto another tent, and lift up thence, and go and hide.
field: 12007009
12

And they say one unto another, `We are not doing right this day; a day of tidings it `is', and we are keeping silent; and -- we have waited till the light of the morning, then hath punishment found us; and now, come and we go in and declare to the house of the king.'
field: 12007010
12
7
10
And they come in, and call unto the gatekeeper of the city, and declare for themselves, saying, `We have come in unto the camp of Aram, and lo, there is not there a man, or sound of man, but the bound horse, and the bound ass, and tents as they `are'.'
field: 12007011
12
7
11
and he calleth the gatekeepers, and they declare to the house of the king within.
field: 12007012
12

12
And the king riseth by night, and saith unto his servants, `Let me declare, I pray you, to you that which the Aramaeans have done to us; they have known that we are famished, and they are gone out from the camp to be hidden in the field, saying, When they come out from the city, then we catch them alive, and unto the city we enter.'
field: 12007013
12

13
And one of his servants answereth and saith, `Then let them take, I pray thee, five of the horses that are left, that have been left in it -- lo, they `are' as all the multitude of Israel who have been left in it; lo, they are as all the multitude of Israel who have been consumed -- and we send and see.'
field: 12007014

And they take two chariot-horses, and the king sendeth after the camp of Aram, saying, `Go, and see.'
field: 12007015
12

15
And they go after them unto the Jordan, and lo, all the way is full of garments and vessels that the Aramaeans have cast away in their haste, and the messengers turn back and declare to the king.
field: 12007016
12

And the people go out and spoil the camp of Aram, and there is a measure of fine flour at a shekel, and two measures of barley at a shekel, according to the word of Jehovah.
field: 12007017
12
7
17
And the king hath appointed the captain, by whose hand he is supported, over the gate, and the people tread him down in the gate, and he dieth, as the man of God spake, which he spake in the coming down of the king unto him,
field: 12007018
12

18
yea, it cometh to pass, according to the speaking of the man of God unto the king, saying, `Two measures of barley at a shekel, and a measure of fine flour at a shekel are, at this time to-morrow, in the gate of Samaria;'
field: 12007019
12

19
and the captain answereth the man of God, and saith, `And lo, Jehovah is making windows in the heavens -- it is according to this word?' and he saith, `Lo, thou art seeing with thine eyes, and thereof thou dost not eat;'

And Elisha spake unto the woman whose son he had revived, saying, `Rise and go, thou and thy household, and sojourn where thou dost sojourn, for Jehovah hath called for a famine, and also, it is coming unto the land seven years.'

And the woman riseth, and doth according to the word of the man of God, and goeth, she and her household, and sojourneth in the land of the Philistines seven years.

And it cometh to pass, at the end of seven years, that the woman turneth back from the land of the Philistines, and goeth out to cry unto the king, for her house, and for her field.

5
And it cometh to pass, he is recounting to the king how he had revived the dead, and lo, the woman whose son he had revived is crying unto the king, for her house and for her field, and Gehazi saith, `My lord, O king, this `is' the woman, and this her son, whom Elisha revived.'
field: 12008006
12

And the king asketh at the woman, and she recounteth to him, and the king appointeth to her a certain eunuch, saying, `Give back all that she hath, and all the increase of the field from the day of her leaving the land even till now.'

And Elisha cometh in to Damascus, and Ben-Hadad king of Aram is sick, and it is declared to him, saying, `The man of God hath come hither.'

And the king saith unto Hazael, `Take in thy hand a present, and go to meet the man of God, and thou hast sought Jehovah by him, saying, Do I revive from this sickness?'
field: 12008009
12

And Hazael goeth to meet him, and taketh a present in his hand, even of every good thing of Damascus, a burden of forty camels, and he cometh in and standeth before him, and saith, `Thy son Ben-Hadad, king of Aram, hath sent me unto thee, saying, Do I revive from this sickness?'
field: 12008010
12
8
10
And Elisha saith unto him, `Go, say, Thou dost certainly not revive, seeing Jehovah hath shewed me that he doth surely die.'
field: 12008011
12
8
11
And he setteth his face, yea, he setteth `it' till he is ashamed, and the man of God weepeth.
field: 12008012
12
8
12
And Hazael saith, `Wherefore is my lord weeping?' and he saith, `Because I have known the evil that thou dost to the sons of Israel -- their fenced places thou dost send into fire, and their young men with sword thou dost slay, and their sucklings thou dost dash to pieces, and their pregnant women thou dost rip up.'
field: 12008013
12

13
And Hazael saith, `But what, `is' thy servant the dog, that he doth this great thing?' And Elisha saith, `Jehovah hath shewed me thee -- king of Aram.'
field: 12008014
12
8

And he goeth from Elisha, and cometh in unto his lord, and he saith unto him, `What said Elisha to thee?' and he saith, `He said to me, Thou dost certainly recover.'

a son of thirty and two years was he in his reigning, and eight years he hath reigned in Jerusalem.
field: 12008018
12

18
And he walketh in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab, for a daughter of Ahab was to him for a wife, and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah,
field: 12008019
12

and Jehovah was not willing to destroy Judah, for the sake of David his servant, as He said to him, to give to him a lamp -- to his sons all the days.

In his days hath Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and they cause a king to reign over them,

and Joram passeth over to Zair, and all the chariots with him, and he himself hath risen by night, and smiteth Edom, that is coming round about unto him, and the heads of the chariots, and the people fleeth to its tents;

and Edom revolteth from under the hand of Judah till this day; then doth Libnah revolt at that time.

And the rest of the matters of Joram, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?

and he walketh in the way of the house of Ahab, and doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, like the house of Ahab, for he `is' son-in-law of the house of Ahab.

And he goeth with Joram son of Ahab to battle with Hazael king of Aram in Ramoth-Gilead, and the Aramaeans smite Joram,

and perished hath all the house of Ahab, and I have cut off to Ahab those sitting on the wall, and restrained, and left, in Israel,

and I have given up the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat, and as the house of Baasha son of Ahijah,

and Jezebel do the dogs eat in the portion of Jezreel, and there is none burying;' and he openeth the door and fleeth.

And Jehu hath gone out unto the servants of his lord, and `one' saith to him, `Is there peace? wherefore came this madman unto thee?' and he saith unto them, `Ye have known the man and his talk.'

And they say, `False, declare, we pray thee, to us;' and he saith, `Thus and thus spake he unto me, saying, Thus said Jehovah, I have anointed thee for king unto Israel.'

15
and king Joram turneth back to be healed in Jezreel, of the wounds with which the Aramaeans smite him, in his fighting with Hazael king of Aram) -- and Jehu saith, `If it is your mind, let not an escaped one go out from the city, to go to declare `it' in Jezreel.'

And the watchman is standing on the tower in Jezreel, and seeth the company of Jehu in his coming, and saith, `A company I see;' and Joram saith, `Take a rider and send to meet them, and let him say, Is there peace?'

18
and the rider on the horse goeth to meet him, and saith, `Thus said the king, Is there peace?' and Jehu saith, `What -- to thee and to peace? turn round behind me.' And the watchman declareth, saying, `The messenger came unto them, and he hath not returned.'

And they turn back, and declare to him, and he saith, `The word of Jehovah it `is', that He spake by the hand of this servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, In the portion of Jezreel do the dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel,

And the king of Asshur findeth in Hoshea a conspiracy, in that he hath sent messengers unto So king of Egypt, and hath not caused a present to go up to the king of Asshur, as year by year, and the king of Asshur restraineth him, and bindeth him in a house of restraint.

And it cometh to pass, because the sons of Israel have sinned against Jehovah their God -- who bringeth them up out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt -- and fear other gods,
field: 12017008
12
17
8
and walk in the statutes of the nations that Jehovah dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel, and of the kings of Israel that they made;
field: 12017009
12
17
9
and the sons of Israel do covertly things that `are' not right against Jehovah their God, and build for them high places in all their cities, from a tower of the watchers unto the fenced city,
field: 12017010
12
17
10
and set up for them standing-pillars and shrines on every high height, and under every green tree,
field: 12017011

and make perfume there in all high places, like the nations that Jehovah removed from their presence, and do evil things to provoke Jehovah,

17
12
and serve the idols, of which Jehovah said to them, `Ye do not do this thing;'

And Jehovah testifieth against Israel, and against Judah, by the hand of every prophet, and every seer, saying, `Turn back from your evil ways, and keep My commands, My statutes, according to all the law that I commanded your fathers, and that I sent unto you by the hand of My servants the prophets;'
field: 12017014

and they have not hearkened, and harden their neck, like the neck of their fathers, who did not remain stedfast in Jehovah their God,
field: 12017015
12
17
15
and reject His statutes and His covenant that He made with their fathers, and His testimonies that He testified against them, and go after the vain thing, and become vain, and after the nations that are round about them, of whom Jehovah commanded them not to do like them;
field: 12017016
12
17
16
And they forsake all the commands of Jehovah their God, and make to them a molten image -- two calves, and make a shrine, and bow themselves to all the host of the heavens, and serve Baal,
field: 12017017
12
17
17
and cause their sons and their daughters to pass over through fire, and divine divinations, and use enchantments, and sell themselves to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, to provoke Him;
field: 12017018
12

19
Also Judah hath not kept the commands of Jehovah their God, and they walk in the statutes of Israel that they had made.
field: 12017020
12
17
20
And Jehovah kicketh against all the seed of Israel, and afflicteth them, and giveth them into the hand of spoilers, till that He hath cast them out of His presence,
field: 12017021
12
17
21
for He hath rent Israel from the house of David, and they make Jeroboam son of Nebat king, and Jeroboam driveth Israel from after Jehovah, and hath caused them to sin a great sin,
field: 12017022
12
17
22
and the sons of Israel walk in all the sins of Jeroboam that he did, they have not turned aside therefrom,
field: 12017023
12
17
23
till that Jehovah hath turned Israel aside from His presence, as He spake by the hand of all His servants the prophets, and Israel is removed from off its land to Asshur, unto this day.
field: 12017024
12
17
24
And the king of Asshur bringeth in from Babylon and from Cutha, and from Ava, and from Hamath, and Sepharvaim, and causeth `them' to dwell in the cities of Samaria instead of the sons of Israel, and they possess Samaria, and dwell in its cities;
field: 12017025
12
17
25
and it cometh to pass, at the commencement of their dwelling there, they have not feared Jehovah, and Jehovah doth send among them the lions, and they are destroying among them.
field: 12017026
12
17
26
And they speak to the king of Asshur, saying, `The nations that thou hast removed, and dost place in the cities of Samaria, have not known the custom of the God of the land, and He sendeth among them the lions, and lo, they are destroying them, as they do not know the custom of the God of the land.'
field: 12017027
12
17
27
And the king of Asshur commandeth, saying, `Cause to go thither one of the priests whom ye removed thence, and they go and dwell there, and he doth teach them the custom of the God of the land.'
field: 12017028
12
17
28
And one of the priests whom they removed from Samaria cometh in, and dwelleth in Beth-El, and he is teaching them how they do fear Jehovah,
field: 12017029
12
17
29
and they are making each nation its gods, and place `them' in the houses of the high places that the Samaritans have made, each nation in their cities where they are dwelling.
field: 12017030
12
17
30
And the men of Babylon have made Succoth-Benoth, and the men of Cuth have made Nergal, and the men of Hamath have made Ashima,

12
17
31
and the Avites have made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites are burning their sons with fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, gods of Sepharvim.
field: 12017032
12
17
32
And they are fearing Jehovah, and make to themselves from their extremities priests of high places, and they are acting for them in the house of the high places.
field: 12017033
12
17
33
Jehovah they are fearing, and their gods they are serving, according to the custom of the nations whence they removed them.
field: 12017034
12
17
34
Unto this day they are doing according to the former customs -- they are not fearing Jehovah, and are not doing according to their statutes, and according to their ordinances, and according to the law, and according to the command, that Jehovah commanded the sons of Jacob whose name He made Israel,
field: 12017035
12
17
35
and Jehovah maketh with them a covenant, and chargeth them, saying, `Ye do not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them,

12
17
36
but Jehovah who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a stretched-out arm, Him ye do fear, and to Him ye bow yourselves, and to Him ye do sacrifice;

17
38
and the covenant that I have made with you ye do not forget, and ye do not fear other gods;

17
39
but Jehovah your God ye do fear, and He doth deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies;'
field: 12017040
12
17
40
and they have not hearkened, but according to their former custom they are doing,
field: 12017041
12

41
and these nations are fearing Jehovah, and their graven images they have served, both their sons and their sons' sons; as their fathers did, they are doing unto this day.

And he doth that which `is' right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that David his father did,

12
18
4
he hath turned aside the high places, and broken in pieces the standing-pillars, and cut down the shrine, and beaten down the brazen serpent that Moses made, for unto these days were the sons of Israel making perfume to it, and he calleth it `a piece of brass.'
field: 12018005
12
18
5
In Jehovah, God of Israel, he hath trusted, and after him there hath not been like him among all the kings of Judah, nor `among any' who were before him;
field: 12018006
12
18
6
and he cleaveth to Jehovah, he hath not turned aside from after Him, and keepeth His commands that Jehovah commanded Moses.
field: 12018007
12
18
7
And Jehovah hath been with him, in every place where he goeth out he acteth wisely, and he rebelleth against the king of Asshur, and hath not served him;

12
18
8
he hath smitten the Philistines unto Gaza, and its borders, from a tower of watchers unto the fenced city.

and Hezekiah king of Judah sendeth unto the king of Asshur to Lachish, saying, `I have sinned, turn back from off me; that which thou puttest on me I bear;' and the king of Asshur layeth on Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold,
field: 12018015
12
18
15
and Hezekiah giveth all the silver that is found in the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the house of the king;
field: 12018016
12
18
16
at that time hath Hezekiah cut off the doors of the temple of Jehovah, and the pillars that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and giveth them to the king of Asshur.
field: 12018017
12
18
17
And the king of Asshur sendeth Tartan, and the chief of the eunuchs, and the chief of the butlers, from Lachish, unto king Hezekiah, with a heavy force, to Jerusalem, and they go up and come in to Jerusalem, and they go up, and come in and stand by the conduit of the upper pool that `is' in the highway of the fuller's field.
field: 12018018
12
18
18
And they call unto the king, and go out unto them doth Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who `is' over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the remembrancer.
field: 12018019
12
18
19
And the chief of the butlers saith unto them, `Say, I pray you, unto Hezekiah, Thus said the great king, the king of Asshur, What `is' this confidence in which thou hast confided?
field: 12018020
12
18
20
Thou hast said: Only a word of the lips! counsel and might `are' for battle; now, on whom hast thou trusted that thou hast rebelled against me?

18
21
`Now, lo, thou hast trusted for thee on the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; which a man leaneth on, and it hath gone into his hand, and pierced it! -- so `is' Pharaoh king of Egypt to all those trusting on him.

12
18
22
`And when ye say unto me, Unto Jehovah our God we have trusted, is it not He whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath turned aside, and saith to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar do ye bow yourselves in Jerusalem?

12
18
23
`And, now, give a pledge for thee, I pray thee, to my lord the king of Asshur, and I give to thee two thousand horses, if thou art able to give for thee riders on them.

24
And how dost thou turn back the face of one captain of the least of the servants of my lord, that thou dost trust for thee on Egypt for chariot, and for horsemen?
field: 12018025
12
18
25
Now, without Jehovah have I come up against this place to destroy it? Jehovah said unto me, Go up against this land, and thou hast destroyed it.'

26
And Eliakim son of Hilkiah saith -- and Shebna, and Joah -- to the chief of the butlers, `Speak, we pray thee, unto thy servants `in' Aramaean, for we are understanding, and do not speak with us `in' Jewish, in the ears of the people who `are' on the wall.'
field: 12018027
12
18

And the chief of the butlers saith unto them, `For thy lord, and unto thee, hath my lord sent me to speak these words? is it not for the men, those sitting on the wall to eat their own dung and to drink their own water, with you?'
field: 12018028
12
18
28
And the chief of the butlers standeth and calleth with a great voice `in' Jewish, and speaketh and saith, `Hear ye a word of the great king, the king of Asshur:

and let not Hezekiah make you trust unto Jehovah, saying, Jehovah doth certainly deliver us, and this city is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur.

`Do not hearken unto Hezekiah, for thus said the king of Asshur, Make with me a blessing, and come out unto me, and eat ye each of his vine, and each of his fig-tree, and drink ye each the waters of his own well,

And Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who `is' over the house, cometh in, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the remembrancer, unto Hezekiah, with rent garments, and they declare to him the words of the chief of the butlers.

And it cometh to pass, at king Hezekiah's hearing, that he rendeth his garments, and covereth himself with sackcloth, and entereth the house of Jehovah,

and sendeth Eliakim, who `is' over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covering themselves with sackcloth, unto Isaiah the prophet, son of Amoz,

And the servants of king Hezekiah come in unto Isaiah,

And he heareth concerning Tirhakah king of Cush, saying, `Lo, he hath come out to fight with thee;' and he turneth and sendeth messengers unto Hezekiah, saying,

Lo, thou hast heard that which the kings of Asshur have done to all the lands -- to devote them; and thou art delivered!

And Hezekiah taketh the letters out of the hand of the messengers, and readeth them, and goeth up to the house of Jehovah, and Hezekiah spreadeth it before Jehovah.

17
`Truly, O Jehovah, kings of Asshur have laid waste the nations, and their land,

and have put their gods into fire, for they `are' no gods, but work of the hands of man, wood and stone, and destroy them.

And now, O Jehovah our God, save us, we pray Thee, out of his hand, and know do all kingdoms of the earth that Thou `art' Jehovah God -- Thyself alone.'

And Isaiah son of Amoz sendeth unto Hezekiah, saying, `Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, That which thou hast prayed unto Me concerning Sennacherib king of Asshur I have heard:

21
this `is' the word that Jehovah spake concerning him: `Trampled on thee -- laughed at thee, Hath the virgin daughter of Zion Behind thee shaken the head -- Hath the daughter of Jerusalem?

Whom hast thou reproached and reviled? And against whom lifted up a voice? Yea, thou dost lift up on high thine eyes -- Against the Holy One of Israel!
field: 12019023
12
19
23
By the hand of thy messengers Thou hast reproached the Lord, and sayest: In the multitude of my chariots I have come up to a high place of mountains -- The sides of Lebanon, And I cut down the height of its cedars, The choice of its firs, And I enter the lodging of its extremity, The forest of its Carmel.

I have digged, and drunk strange waters, And I dry up with the sole of my steps All floods of a bulwark.

Hast thou not heard from afar, it I made, From days of old that I formed it? Now I have brought it in, And it becometh a desolation, Ruinous heaps `are' fenced cities,

26
And their inhabitants `are' feeble-handed, They were broken down, and are dried up, They have been the herb of the field, And the greenness of the tender grass, Grass of the roofs, And blasted corn -- before it hath risen up!
field: 12019027
12
19
27
And thy sitting down, and thy going out, And thy coming in, I have known, And thine anger towards Me;
field: 12019028
12
19
28
Because of thine anger towards Me, And thy noise -- it came up into Mine ears, I have put My hook in thy nose, And My bridle in thy lips, And have caused thee to turn back, In the way in which thou camest.

29
And this to thee `is' the sign, Food of the year `is' the spontaneous growth, And in the second year the self-produced, And in the third year sow ye, and reap, And plant vineyards, and eat their fruits.

30
And it hath continued -- The escaped of the house of Judah That hath been left -- to take root beneath, And hath made fruit upward.
field: 12019031
12
19
31
For from Jerusalem goeth out a remnant, And an escape from mount Zion; The zeal of Jehovah `of Hosts' doth this.
field: 12019032
12
19
32
Therefore, thus said Jehovah, Concerning the king of Asshur: He doth not come in unto this city, Nor doth he shoot there an arrow, Nor doth he come before it with shield. Nor doth he pour out against it a mount.
field: 12019033
12

In the way that he cometh in -- In it he turneth back, And unto this city he doth not come in, The affirmation of Jehovah --

12
19
34
And I have covered over this city, To save it, for Mine own sake, And for the sake of David My servant.'

35
And it cometh to pass, in that night, that a messenger of Jehovah goeth out, and smiteth in the camp of Asshur a hundred eighty and five thousand, and they rise early in the morning, and lo, all of them `are' dead corpses.

36
And Sennacherib king of Asshur journeyeth, and goeth, and turneth back, and dwelleth in Nineveh;

12
19
37
and it cometh to pass, he is bowing himself in the house of Nisroch his god, and Adramelech and Sharezar `his sons' have smitten him with the sword, and they have escaped to the land of Ararat, and Esar-Haddon his son reigneth in his stead.

In those days hath Hezekiah been sick unto death, and come unto him doth Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet, and saith unto him, `Thus said Jehovah: Give a charge to thy house, for thou art dying, and dost not live.'

And he turneth round his face unto the wall, and prayeth unto Jehovah, saying,

12
20
3
`I pray Thee, O Jehovah, remember, I pray Thee, how I have walked habitually before Thee in truth, and with a perfect heart, and that which `is' good in Thine eyes I have done;' and Hezekiah weepeth -- a great weeping.
field: 12020004
12
20
4
And it cometh to pass -- Isaiah hath not gone out to the middle court -- that the word of Jehovah hath been unto him, saying,

12
20
5
`Turn back, and thou hast said unto Hezekiah, leader of My people: Thus said Jehovah, God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tear, lo, I give healing to thee, on the third day thou dost go up to the house of Jehovah;

and I have added to thy days fifteen years, and out of the hand of the king of Asshur I deliver thee and this city, and have covered over this city for Mine own sake, and for the sake of David My servant.'

And Isaiah saith, `Take ye a cake of figs;' and they take and lay `it' on the boil, and he reviveth.
field: 12020008
12
20
8
And Hezekiah saith unto Isaiah, `What `is' the sign that Jehovah doth give healing to me, that I have gone up on the third day to the house of Jehovah?'
field: 12020009
12
20
9
And Isaiah saith, `This `is' to thee the sign from Jehovah, that Jehovah doth the thing that He hath spoken -- The shadow hath gone on ten degrees, or it doth turn back ten degrees?'
field: 12020010
12
20
10
And Hezekiah saith, `It hath been light for the shadow to incline ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow turn backward ten degrees.'
field: 12020011
12
20
11
And Isaiah the prophet calleth unto Jehovah, and He bringeth back the shadow by the degrees that it had gone down in the degrees of Ahaz -- backward ten degrees.

12
20
12
At that time hath Berodach-Baladan son of Baladan king of Babylon sent letters and a present unto Hezekiah, for he heard that Hezekiah had been sick;
field: 12020013
12
20
13
and Hezekiah hearkeneth unto them, and sheweth them all the house of his treasury, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the good ointment, and all the house of his vessels, and all that hath been found in his treasuries; there hath not been a thing that Hezekiah hath not shewed them, in his house, and in all his dominion.
field: 12020014
12
20

And Isaiah the prophet cometh in unto king Hezekiah, and saith unto him, `What said these men? and whence come they unto thee?' And Hezekiah saith, `From a land afar off they have come -- from Babylon.'
field: 12020015
12
20
15
And he saith, `What saw they in thy house?' and Hezekiah saith, `All that `is' in my house they saw; there hath not been a thing that I have not shewed them among my treasures.'
field: 12020016
12
20
16
And Isaiah saith unto Hezekiah, `Hear a word of Jehovah:

20
17
Lo, days are coming, and borne hath been all that `is' in thy house, and that thy father have treasured up till this day, to Babylon; there is not left a thing, said Jehovah;

and of thy sons who go out from thee, whom thou begettest, they take away, and they have been eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.'

And the rest of the matters of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made the pool, and the conduit, and bringeth in the waters to the city, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?

and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, according to the abominations of the nations that Jehovah dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel,
field: 12021003
12
21
3
and he turneth and buildeth the high places that Hezekiah his father destroyed, and raiseth altars for Baal, and maketh a shrine, as did Ahab king of Israel, and boweth himself to all the host of the heavens, and serveth them.
field: 12021004
12
21
4
And he hath built altars in the house of Jehovah, of which Jehovah said, `In Jerusalem I put My name.'
field: 12021005
12
21
5
And he buildeth altars to all the host of the heavens in the two courts of the house of Jehovah;
field: 12021006
12
21
6
and he hath caused his son to pass through fire, and observed clouds, and used enchantment, and dealt with a familiar spirit and wizards; he hath multiplied to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah -- to provoke to anger.
field: 12021007
12
21
7
And he setteth the graven image of the shrine that he made in the house of which Jehovah said unto David and unto Solomon his son, `In this house, and in Jerusalem, that I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I put My name -- to the age;

and I do not add to cause the foot of Israel to move from the ground that I gave to their fathers, only, if they observe to do according to all that I commanded them, and to all the law that My servant Moses commanded them.'

And they have not hearkened, and Manasseh causeth them to err, to do the evil thing above the nations that Jehovah destroyed from the presence of the sons of Israel.

And Jehovah speaketh by the hand of his servants the prophets, saying,

21
11
`Because that Manasseh king of Judah hath done these abominations -- he hath done evil above all that the Amorites have done who `are' before him, and causeth also Judah to sin by his idols;

12
therefore thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Lo, I am bringing in evil on Jerusalem and Judah, that whoever heareth of it, tingle do his two ears.
field: 12021013
12
21
13
And I have stretched out over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab, and wiped Jerusalem as one wipeth the dish -- he hath wiped, and hath turned `it' on its face.

`And I have left the remnant of Mine inheritance, and given them into the hand of their enemies, and they have been for a prey and for a spoil to all their enemies,

15
because that they have done the evil thing in Mine eyes, and are provoking Me to anger from the day that their fathers came out of Egypt, even unto this day.'
field: 12021016
12
21
16
And also, innocent blood hath Manasseh shed very much, till that he hath filled Jerusalem -- mouth to mouth; apart from his sin that he hath caused Judah to sin, to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah.

and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, as did Manasseh his father,

and walketh in all the way that his father walked in, and serveth the idols that his father served, and boweth himself to them,

and forsaketh Jehovah, God of his fathers, and hath not walked in the way of Jehovah.

And the servants of Amon conspire against him, and put the king to death in his own house,

and the people of the land smite all those conspiring against king Amon, and the people of the land cause Josiah his son to reign in his stead.

And the rest of the matters of Amon that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?

And Shaphan the scribe cometh in unto the king, and bringeth the king back word, and saith, `Thy servants have poured out the silver that hath been found in the house, and give it into the hand of the doers of the work, the inspectors, in the house of Jehovah.'

And Shaphan the scribe declareth to the king, saying, `A book hath Hilkiah the priest given to me;' and Shaphan readeth it before the king.
field: 12022011
12

11
And it cometh to pass, at the king's hearing the words of the book of the law, that he rendeth his garments,
field: 12022012
12
22
12
and the king commandeth Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam son of Shaphan, and Achbor son of Michaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asahiah servant of the king, saying,
field: 12022013
12
22
13
`Go, seek Jehovah for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found, for great `is' the fury of Jehovah that is kindled against us, because that our fathers have not hearkened unto the words of this book, to do according to all that is written for us.'

And Hilkiah the priest goeth, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asahiah, unto Huldah the prophetess, wife of Shallum, son of Tikvah, son of Harhas, keeper of the garments, and she is dwelling in Jerusalem in the second, and they speak unto her.

And she saith unto them, `Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Say to the man who hath sent you unto me:

16
Thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am bringing in evil unto this place and on its inhabitants, all the words of the book that the king of Judah hath read,
field: 12022017
12
22
17
because that they have forsaken Me, and make perfume to other gods, so as to provoke Me to anger with every work of their hands, and My wrath hath been kindled against this place, and it is not quenched.

`And unto the king of Judah, who is sending you to seek Jehovah, thus do ye say unto him, Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, The words that thou hast heard --

12
22
19
because thy heart `is' tender, and thou art humbled because of Jehovah, in thy hearing that which I have spoken against this place, and against its inhabitants, to be for a desolation, and for a reviling, and dost rend thy garments, and weep before Me -- I also have heard -- the affirmation of Jehovah --
field: 12022020
12

20
therefore, lo, I am gathering thee unto thy fathers, and thou hast been gathered unto thy grave in peace, and thine eyes do not look on any of the evil that I am bringing in on this place;' and they bring the king back word.

And the king sendeth, and they gather unto him all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem,
field: 12023002
12
23
2
and the king goeth up to the house of Jehovah, and every man of Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, from small unto great, and he readeth in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant that is found in the house of Jehovah.
field: 12023003
12

And the king standeth by the pillar, and maketh the covenant before Jehovah, to walk after Jehovah, and to keep His commands, and His testimonies, and His statutes, with all the heart, and with all the soul, to establish the words of this covenant that are written on this book, and all the people stand in the covenant.

And the king commandeth Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the threshold, to bring out from the temple of Jehovah all the vessels that are made for Baal, and for the shrine, and for all the host of the heavens, and he burneth them at the outside of Jerusalem, in the fields of Kidron, and hath borne their ashes to Beth-El.
field: 12023005
12
23

And he hath caused to cease the idolatrous priests whom the kings of Judah have appointed, (and they make perfume in high places, in cities of Judah and suburbs of Jerusalem,) and those making perfume to Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of the heavens.
field: 12023006
12

And he bringeth out the shrine from the house of Jehovah to the outside of Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burneth it at the brook Kidron, and beateth it small to dust, and casteth its dust on the grave of the sons of the people.
field: 12023007

And he breaketh down the houses of the whoremongers that `are' in the house of Jehovah, where the women are weaving houses for the shrine.

12

8
And he bringeth in all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defileth the high places where the priests have made perfume, from Geba unto Beer-Sheba, and hath broken down the high places of the gates that `are' at the opening of the gate of Joshua, head of the city, that `is' on a man's left hand at the gate of the city;
field: 12023009
12

only, the priests of the high places come not up unto the altar of Jehovah in Jerusalem, but they have eaten unleavened things in the midst of their brethren.
field: 12023010

And he hath defiled Topheth, that `is' in the valley of the son of Hinnom, so that no man doth cause his son and his daughter to pass over through fire to Molech.
field: 12023011
12
23
11
And he causeth to cease the horses that the kings of Judah have given to the sun from the entering in of the house of Jehovah, by the chamber of Nathan-Melech the eunuch, that `is' in the suburbs, and the chariots of the sun he hath burnt with fire.
field: 12023012
12
23
12
And the altars that `are' on the top of the upper chamber of Ahaz, that the kings of Judah made, and the altars that Manasseh made in the two courts of the house of Jehovah, hath the king broken down, and removeth thence, and hath cast their dust unto the brook Kidron.
field: 12023013
12
23
13
And the high places that `are' on the front of Jerusalem, that `are' on the right of the mount of corruption, that Solomon king of Israel had built to Ashtoreth abomination of the Zidonians, and Chemosh abomination of Moab, and to Milcom abomination of the sons of Ammon, hath the king defiled.
field: 12023014
12
23
14
And he hath broken in pieces the standing-pillars, and cutteth down the shrines, and filleth their place with bones of men;
field: 12023015
12
23
15
and also the altar that `is' in Beth-El, the high place that Jeroboam son of Nebat made, by which he made Israel sin, both that altar and the high place he hath broken down, and doth burn the high place -- he hath beat it small to dust, and hath burnt the shrine.
field: 12023016
12
23
16
And Josiah turneth, and seeth the graves that `are' there in the mount, and sendeth and taketh the bones out of the graves, and burneth `them' on the altar, and defileth it, according to the word of Jehovah that the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these things.
field: 12023017
12
23
17
And he saith, `What `is' this sign that I see?' and the men of the city say unto him, `The grave of the man of God who hath come from Judah, and proclaimeth these things that thou hast done concerning the altar of Beth-El.'
field: 12023018
12

And he saith, `Let him alone, let no man touch his bones;' and they let his bones escape, with the bones of the prophet who came out of Samaria.
field: 12023019
12
23
19
And also all the houses of the high places that `are' in the cities of Samaria, that the kings of Israel made to provoke to anger, hath Josiah turned aside, and doth to them according to all the deeds that he did in Beth-El.
field: 12023020
12
23
20
And he slayeth all the priests of the high places who `are' there by the altars, and burneth the bones of man upon them, and turneth back to Jerusalem.
field: 12023021

And the king commandeth the whole of the people, saying, `Make ye a passover to Jehovah your God, as it is written on this book of the covenant.'
field: 12023022
12
23
22
Surely there hath not been made like this passover from the days of the judges who judged Israel, even all the days of the kings of Israel, and of the kings of Judah;
field: 12023023
12
23
23
but in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, hath this passover been made to Jehovah in Jerusalem.
field: 12023024
12
23
24
And also, those having familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the teraphim, and the idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah, and in Jerusalem, hath Josiah put away, in order to establish the words of the law that are written on the book that Hilkiah the priest hath found in the house of Jehovah.
field: 12023025
12

25
And like him there hath not been before him a king who turned back unto Jehovah with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses, and after him there hath none risen like him.
field: 12023026
12

Only, Jehovah hath not turned back from the fierceness of His great anger with which His anger burned against Judah, because of all the provocations with which Manasseh provoked him,
field: 12023027
12
23
27
and Jehovah saith, `Also Judah I turn aside from my presence, as I turned Israel aside, and I have rejected this city that I have chosen -- Jerusalem, and the house of which I said, My name is there.'

In his days hath Pharaoh-Nechoh king of Egypt come up against the king of Asshur, by the river Phrat, and king Josiah goeth out to meet him, and he putteth him to death in Megiddo, when he seeth him.

only, by the command of Jehovah it hath been against Judah to turn `them' aside from His presence, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did,

and also the innocent blood that he hath shed, and he filleth Jerusalem with innocent blood, and Jehovah was not willing to forgive.

And David dwelleth in the fortress, therefore they have called it, `City of David;'

field: 13011011
13
11

And this `is' an account of the mighty ones whom David hath: Jashobeam son of a Hachmonite `is' head of the thirty; he is lifting up his spear against three hundred -- wounded, at one time.
field: 13011012
13
11
12
And after him `is' Eleazar son of Dodo the Ahohite, he `is' among the three mighty;
field: 13011013
13
11
13
he hath been with David in Pas-Dammim, and the Philistines have been gathered there to battle, and a portion of the field is full of barley, and the people have fled from the face of the Philistines,
field: 13011014
13
11
14
and they station themselves in the midst of the portion, and deliver it, and smite the Philistines, and Jehovah saveth -- a great salvation.
field: 13011015
13
11
15
And three of the thirty heads go down on the rock unto David, unto the cave of Adullam, and the host of the Philistines is encamping in the valley of Rephaim,
field: 13011016
13
11
16
and David `is' then in the fortress, and the station of the Philistines `is' then in Beth-Lehem,
field: 13011017
13
11
17
and David longeth, and saith, `Who doth give me to drink water from the well of Beth-Lehem, that `is' at the gate!'
field: 13011018
13
11
18
And the three break through the camp of the Philistines, and draw water from the well of Beth-Lehem, that `is' at the gate, and bear and bring in unto David, and David hath not been willing to drink it, and poureth it out to Jehovah,
field: 13011019
13
11
19
and saith, `Far be it from me, by my God, to do this; the blood of these men do I drink with their lives? for with their lives they have brought it;' and he was not willing to drink it; these `things' did the three mighty ones.
field: 13011020
13
11
20
And Abishai brother of Joab, he hath been head of the three: and he is lifting up his spear against three hundred -- wounded, and hath a name among three.

13
11
21
Of the three by the two he is honoured, and becometh their head; and unto the `first' three he hath not come.
field: 13011022
13
11
22
Benaiah son of Jehoiada, son of a man of valour, of great deeds, from Kabzeel: he hath smitten the two lion-like Moabites, and he hath gone down and smitten the lion in the midst of the pit, in the day of snow.
field: 13011023
13
11
23
And he hath smitten the man, the Egyptian -- a man of measure, five by the cubit -- and in the hand of the Egyptian `is' a spear like a beam of weavers, and he goeth down unto him with a rod, and taketh violently away the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slayeth him with his own spear.
field: 13011024
13
11
24
These `things' hath Benaiah son of Jehoiada done, and hath a name among the three mighty ones.

And there come of the sons of Benjamin and Judah unto the stronghold to David,

And the Spirit hath clothed Amasai, head of the captains: `To thee, O David, and with thee, O son of Jesse -- peace! peace to thee, and peace to thy helper, for thy God hath helped thee;' and David receiveth them, and putteth them among the heads of the troop.

for at that time, day by day, they come in unto David to help him, till it is a great camp, like a camp of God.

12
38
All these `are' men of war, keeping rank -- with a perfect heart they have come to Hebron, to cause David to reign over all Israel, and also all the rest of Israel `are' of one heart, to cause David to reign,
field: 13012039
13
12

12
40
And also those near unto them, unto Issachar, and Zebulun, and Naphtali, are bringing in bread on asses, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen -- food of fine flour, fig-cakes and grape-cakes, and wine, and oil, and oxen, and sheep, in abundance, for joy `is' in Israel.
field: 13013001
13
13
1
And David consulteth with the heads of the thousands, and of the hundreds, every leader,
field: 13013002
13
13
2
and David saith to all the assembly of Israel, `If unto you it be good, and from Jehovah our God it hath broken forth -- we send unto our brethren, those left in all the lands of Israel, and with them the priests and the Levites, in the cities of their suburbs, and they are gathered unto us,
field: 13013003
13
13
3
and we bring round the ark of our God unto us, for we sought Him not in the days of Saul.'
field: 13013004
13
13
4
And all the assembly say to do so, for the thing is right in the eyes of all the people.
field: 13013005
13
13
5
And David assembleth all Israel from Shihor of Egypt even unto the entering in of Hamath, to bring in the ark of God from Kirjath-Jearim,
field: 13013006
13
13
6
and David goeth up, and all Israel, to Baalah, unto Kirjath-Jearim that `is' to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God Jehovah, inhabiting the cherubs, where the Name is called on.
field: 13013007
13
13
7
And they place the ark of God on a new cart, from the house of Abinadab, and Uzza and Ahio are leading the cart,
field: 13013008
13
13
8
and David and all Israel are playing before God, with all strength, and with songs, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
field: 13013009
13
13
9
And they come in unto the threshing-floor of Chidon, and Uzza putteth forth his hand to seize the ark, for the oxen were released,
field: 13013010
13
13
10
and the anger of Jehovah is kindled against Uzza, and He smiteth him, because that he hath put forth his hand on the ark, and he dieth there before God.
field: 13013011
13
13
11
And it is displeasing to David, because Jehovah hath made a breach upon Uzza, and one calleth that place `Breach of Uzza' unto this day.
field: 13013012
13
13
12
And David feareth God on that day, saying, `How do I bring in unto me the ark of God?'
field: 13013013
13
13
13
And David hath not turned aside the ark unto himself, unto the city of David, and turneth it aside unto the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
field: 13013014
13
13
14
And the ark of God dwelleth with the household of Obed-Edom, in his house, three months, and Jehovah blesseth the house of Obed-Edom, and all that he hath.
field: 13014001
13
14
1
And Huram king of Tyre sendeth messengers unto David, and cedar-wood, and artificers of walls, and artificers of wood, to build to him a house.
field: 13014002
13
14
2
And David knoweth that Jehovah hath established him for king over Israel, because of the lifting up on high of his kingdom, for the sake of His people Israel.
field: 13014003
13
14
3
And David taketh again wives in Jerusalem, and David begetteth again sons and daughters;
field: 13014004
13
14
4
and these `are' the names of the children whom he hath in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,

And the Philistines hear that David hath been anointed for king over all Israel, and all the Philistines go up to seek David, and David heareth, and goeth out before them.
field: 13014009
13
14
9
And the Philistines have come, and rush into the valley of Rephaim,
field: 13014010
13
14
10
and David asketh of God, saying, `Do I go up against the Philistines -- and hast Thou given them into my hand?' And Jehovah saith to him, `Go up, and I have given them into thy hand.'
field: 13014011
13
14
11
And they go up into Baal-Perazim, and David smiteth them there, and David saith, `God hath broken up mine enemies by my hand, like the breaking up of waters;' therefore they have called the name of that place Baal-Perazim.
field: 13014012
13
14
12
And they leave there their gods, and David speaketh, and they are burnt with fire.
field: 13014013
13
14
13
And the Philistines add again, and rush into the valley,
field: 13014014
13
14
14
and David asketh again of God, and God saith to him, `Do not go up after them, turn round from them, and thou hast come to them from over-against the mulberries;
field: 13014015
13
14
15
and it cometh to pass, when thou hearest the sound of the stepping at the heads of the mulberries, then thou goest out into battle, for God hath gone out before thee to smite the camp of the Philistines.'
field: 13014016
13
14
16
And David doth as God commanded him, and they smite the camp of the Philistines from Gibeon even unto Gazer;
field: 13014017
13
14
17
and the name of David goeth out into all the lands, and Jehovah hath put his fear on all the nations.
field: 13015001
13
15
1
And he maketh for himself houses in the city of David, and prepareth a place for the ark of God, and stretcheth out for it a tent.
field: 13015002
13
15
2
Then said David, `None `are' to carry the ark of God, except the Levites, for on them hath Jehovah fixed to carry the ark of God, and to serve Him -- unto the age.'
field: 13015003
13
15
3
And David assembleth all Israel unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of Jehovah unto its place that he had prepared for it.
field: 13015004
13
15
4
And David gathereth the sons of Aaron, and the Levites.

And David calleth to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, and to the Levites, to Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab,
field: 13015012
13
15
12
and saith to them, `Ye `are' heads of the fathers of the Levites; sanctify yourselves, ye and your brethren, and ye have brought up the ark of Jehovah, God of Israel, unto `the place' I have prepared for it;
field: 13015013
13
15
13
because at the first `it was' not ye, Jehovah our God made a breach upon us, because we sought Him not according to the ordinance.'
field: 13015014
13
15
14
And the priests and the Levites sanctify themselves, to bring up the ark of Jehovah, God of Israel;
field: 13015015
13
15
15
and sons of the Levites bear the ark of God, as Moses commanded, according to the word of Jehovah, on their shoulder, with staves, above them.
field: 13015016
13
15
16
And David saith to the heads of the Levites to appoint their brethren the singers, with instruments of song, psalteries, and harps, and cymbals, sounding, to lift up with the voice for joy.
field: 13015017
13
15

And the Levites appoint Heman son of Joel, and of his brethren, Asaph son of Berechiah, and of the sons of Merari their brethren, Ethan son of Kushaiah;

15
18

And Chenaniah, head of the Levites, `is' over the burden; he instructeth about the burden, for he `is' intelligent.
field: 13015023
13
15
23
And Berechiah and Elkanah `are' gatekeepers for the ark.

And Shebaniah, and Joshaphat, and Nethaneel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer the priests, are blowing with trumpets before the ark of God; and Obed-Edom and Jehiah `are' gatekeepers for the ark.
field: 13015025
13
15
25
And it is David, and the elders of Israel, and the heads of the thousands, who are going to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah from the house of Obed-Edom with joy;
field: 13015026
13
15
26
and it cometh to pass, in God's helping the Levites bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, that they sacrifice seven bullocks and seven rams.
field: 13015027
13
15
27
And David is wrapped in an upper robe of fine linen, and all the Levites who are bearing the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah head of the burden of the singers; and on David `is' an Ephod of linen.
field: 13015028
13

And all Israel are bringing up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah with shouting, and with the sound of a cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, sounding with psalteries and harps,
field: 13015029
13
15
29
and it cometh to pass, the ark of the covenant of Jehovah is entering in unto the city of David, and Michal daughter of Saul is looking through the window, and seeth king David dancing and playing, and despiseth him in her heart.
field: 13016001
13
16

And they bring in the ark of God, and set it up in the midst of the tent that David hath stretched out for it, and they bring near burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before God;
field: 13016002
13
16
2
and David ceaseth from offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, and blesseth the people in the name of Jehovah,
field: 13016003
13
16
3
and giveth a portion to every man of Israel, both man and woman: to each a cake of bread, and a measure of wine, and a grape-cake.
field: 13016004
13
16
4
And he putteth before the ark of Jehovah, of the Levites, ministers, even to make mention of, and to thank, and to give praise to Jehovah, God of Israel,

and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests `are' with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.
field: 13016007

On that day then hath David given at the beginning to give thanks to Jehovah by the hand of Asaph and his brethren: --

Give thanks to Jehovah, call in His name, Make known among the peoples His doings.

field: 13016016
13
16
16
Which He hath made with Abraham, And His oath -- to Isaac,
field: 13016017
13
16
17
And He establisheth it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel -- a covenant age-during.
field: 13016018
13
16
18
Saying: To thee I give the land of Canaan, The portion of your inheritance,
field: 13016019
13
16
19
When ye are few of number, As a little thing, and sojourners in it.
field: 13016020
13
16
20
And they go up and down, From nation unto nation, And from a kingdom unto another people.
field: 13016021
13
16
21
He hath not suffered any to oppress them, And reproveth on their account kings:
field: 13016022
13
16
22
Come not against Mine anointed ones, And against My prophets do not evil.
field: 13016023
13

23
Sing to Jehovah, all the earth, Proclaim from day unto day His salvation.
field: 13016024
13
16
24
Rehearse among nations His glory, Among all the peoples His wonders.
field: 13016025
13
16
25
For great `is' Jehovah, and praised greatly, And fearful He `is' above all gods.
field: 13016026
13
16
26
For all gods of the peoples `are' nought, And Jehovah the heavens hath made.
field: 13016027
13
16
27
Honour and majesty `are' before Him, Strength and joy `are' in His place.
field: 13016028
13
16
28
Ascribe to Jehovah, ye families of peoples, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.
field: 13016029
13
16
29
Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Lift up a present, and come before Him. Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the beauty of holiness.
field: 13016030
13
16
30
Be pained before Him, all the earth:
field: 13016031
13
16
31
Also, established is the world, It is not moved! The heavens rejoice, and the earth is glad, And they say among nations: Jehovah hath reigned.
field: 13016032
13
16
32
Roar doth the sea, and its fulness, Exult doth the field, and all that `is' in it,
field: 13016033
13
16
33
Then sing do trees of the forest, From the presence of Jehovah, For He hath come to judge the earth!
field: 13016034
13
16
34
Give thanks to Jehovah, for good, For to the age, `is' His kindness,
field: 13016035
13
16
35
And say, Save us, O God of our salvation, And gather us, and deliver us from the nations, To give thanks to Thy holy name, To triumph in Thy praise.
field: 13016036
13
16
36
Blessed `is' Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age and unto the age;' And all the people say, `Amen,' and have given praise to Jehovah.

37
And he leaveth there before the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, for Asaph and for his brethren, to minister before the ark continually, according to the matter of a day in its day,

16
38
both Obed-Edom and their brethren, sixty and eight, and Obed-Edom son of Jeduthun, and Hosah for gatekeepers,

39
and Zadok the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of Jehovah, in a high place that `is' in Gibeon,
field: 13016040

16
40
to cause to ascend burnt-offerings to Jehovah, on the altar of burnt-offering continually, morning and evening, and for all that is written in the law of Jehovah, that He charged on Israel.
field: 13016041
13
16
41
And with them `are' Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest of those chosen, who were defined by name, to give thanks to Jehovah, for to the age `is' His kindness,
field: 13016042
13
16
42
and with them -- Heman and Jeduthun -- `are' trumpets and cymbals for those sounding, and instruments of the song of God, and the sons of Jeduthun `are' at the gate.
field: 13016043
13
16
43
And all the people go, each to his house, and David turneth round to bless his house.
field: 13017001
13
17
1
And it cometh to pass as David sat in his house, that David saith unto Nathan the prophet, `Lo, I am dwelling in a house of cedars, and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah `is' under curtains;'
field: 13017002
13
17
2
and Nathan saith unto David, `All that `is' in thy heart do, for God `is' with thee.'
field: 13017003
13
17
3
And it cometh to pass on that night that a word of God is unto Nathan, saying,
field: 13017004
13
17
4
`Go, and thou hast said unto David My servant, Thus said Jehovah, Thou dost not build for Me the house to dwell in:
field: 13017005
13
17
5
for I have not dwelt in a house from the day that I brought up Israel till this day, and I am from tent unto tent: and from the tabernacle,
field: 13017006
13
17
6
whithersoever I have walked up and down among all Israel, a word spake I, with one of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to feed My people, saying, Why have ye not built for Me a house of cedars?
field: 13017007
13
17
7
`And now, thus dost thou say to My servant, to David, Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, I have taken thee from the habitation, from after the sheep, to be leader over My people Israel,
field: 13017008
13
17
8
and I am with thee whithersoever thou hast walked, and I cut off all thine enemies from thy presence, and have made for thee a name like the name of the great ones who `are' in the earth.
field: 13017009
13
17
9
`And I have prepared a place for My people Israel, and planted it, and it hath dwelt in its place, and is not troubled any more, and the sons of perverseness add not to wear it out as at first,
field: 13017010
13
17
10
yea, even from the days that I appointed judges over My people Israel. `And I have humbled all thine enemies, and I declare to thee that a house doth Jehovah build for thee,
field: 13017011
13
17
11
and it hath come to pass, when thy days have been fulfilled to go with thy fathers, that I have raised up thy seed after thee, who is of thy sons, and I have established his kingdom,
field: 13017012
13
17
12
he doth build for Me a house, and I have established his throne unto the age;
field: 13017013
13
17
13
I am to him for a father, and he is to Me for a son, and My kindness I turn not aside from him as I turned it aside from him who was before thee,
field: 13017014
13
17
14
and I have established him in My house, and in My kingdom unto the age, and his throne is established unto the age.'
field: 13017015
13
17
15
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so spake Nathan unto David.
field: 13017016
13
17
16
And David the king cometh in and sitteth before Jehovah, and saith, `Who `am' I, O Jehovah God, and what my house, that Thou hast brought me hitherto?
field: 13017017
13
17
17
And this is small in Thine eyes, O God, and Thou speakest concerning the house of thy servant afar off, and hast seen me as a type of the man who is on high, O Jehovah God!
field: 13017018
13
17
18
`What doth David add more unto Thee for the honour of Thy servant; and Thou Thy servant hast known.
field: 13017019
13
17
19
O Jehovah, for Thy servant's sake, and according to Thine own heart Thou hast done all this greatness, to make known all these great things.
field: 13017020
13
17
20
O Jehovah, there is none like Thee, and there is no god save Thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
field: 13017021
13
17
21
`And who `is' as Thy people Israel, one nation in the earth whom God hath gone to ransom to Him for a people, to make for Thee a name great and fearful, to cast out from the presence of Thy people whom Thou hast ransomed out of Egypt -- nations?
field: 13017022
13
17
22
Yea, Thou dost appoint Thy people Israel to Thee for a people unto the age, and Thou, O Jehovah, hast been to them for God.
field: 13017023
13
17
23
`And now, O Jehovah, the word that Thou hast spoken concerning Thy servant, and concerning his house, let be stedfast unto the age, and do as Thou hast spoken;
field: 13017024
13
17
24
and let it be stedfast, and Thy name is great unto the age, saying, Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, is God to Israel, and the house of Thy servant David is established before Thee;
field: 13017025
13
17
25
for Thou, O my God, Thou hast uncovered the ear of Thy servant -- to build to him a house, therefore hath Thy servant found to pray before Thee.
field: 13017026
13
17
26
`And now, Jehovah, Thou `art' God Himself, and Thou speakest concerning Thy servant this goodness;
field: 13017027
13
17
27
and now, Thou hast been pleased to bless the house of Thy servant, to be to the age before Thee; for Thou, O Jehovah, hast blessed, and it is blessed to the age.'
field: 13018001

And it cometh to pass after this, that David smiteth the Philistines, and humbleth them, and taketh Gath and its small towns out of the hand of the Philistines;
field: 13018002
13
18
2
and he smiteth Moab, and the Moabites are servants to David, bringing a present.
field: 13018003
13
18
3
And David smiteth Hadarezer king of Zobah, at Hamath, in his going to establish his power by the river Phrat,
field: 13018004
13
18
4
and David captureth from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen, and David destroyeth utterly all the chariots, and leaveth of them a hundred chariots `only'.
field: 13018005
13
18
5
And Aram of Damascus cometh in to give help to Hadarezer king of Zobah, and David smiteth in Aram twenty and two thousand men,
field: 13018006
13
18
6
and David putteth `garrisons' in Aram of Damascus, and the Aramaeans are to David for servants, bearing a present, and Jehovah giveth salvation to David whithersoever he hath gone.
field: 13018007
13
18
7
And David taketh the shields of gold that have been on the servants of Hadarezer, and bringeth them in to Jerusalem;
field: 13018008
13
18
8
and from Tibhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, hath David taken very much brass; with it hath Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.
field: 13018009
13
18
9
And Tou king of Hamath heareth that David hath smitten the whole force of Hadarezer king of Zobah,
field: 13018010
13
18
10
and he sendeth Hadoram his son unto king David, to ask of him of peace, and to bless him (because that he hath fought against Hadarezer, and smiteth him, for a man of wars with Tou had Hadarezer been,) and all kinds of vessels, of gold, and silver, and brass;
field: 13018011
13
18
11
also them hath king David sanctified to Jehovah with the silver and the gold that he hath taken from all the nations, from Edom, and from Moab, and from the sons of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek.
field: 13018012
13
18
12
And Abishai son of Zeruiah hath smitten Edom in the valley of salt -- eighteen thousand,
field: 13018013
13
18
13
and he putteth in Edom garrisons, and all the Edomites are servants to David; and Jehovah saveth David whithersoever he hath gone.
field: 13018014
13
18
14
And David reigneth over all Israel, and he is doing judgment and righteousness to all his people,
field: 13018015
13
18
15
and Joab son of Zeruiah `is' over the host, and Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud `is' remembrancer,

16
and Zadok son of Ahitub, and Abimelech son of Abiathar, `are' priests, and Shavsha `is' scribe,

17
and Benaiah son of Jehoiada `is' over the Cherethite and the Pelethite, and the elder sons of David `are' at the hand of the king.
field: 13019001
13
19
1
And it cometh to pass after this, that Nahash king of the sons of Ammon dieth, and his son reigneth in his stead,
field: 13019002
13
19
2
and David saith, `I do kindness with Hanun son of Nahash, for his father did with me kindness;' and David sendeth messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And the servants of David come in unto the land of the sons of Ammon, unto Hanun, to comfort him,
field: 13019003
13
19
3
and the heads of the sons of Ammon say to Hanun, `Is David honouring thy father, in thine eyes, because he hath sent to thee comforters? in order to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out, the land, have not his servants come in unto thee?'
field: 13019004
13
19
4
And Hanun taketh the servants of David, and shaveth them, and cutteth their long robes in the midst, unto the buttocks, and sendeth them away.
field: 13019005
13
19
5
And `some' go, and declare to David concerning the men, and he sendeth to meet them -- for the men have been greatly ashamed -- and the king saith, `Dwell in Jericho till that your beard is grown, then ye have returned.'
field: 13019006
13
19
6
And the sons of Ammon see that they have made themselves abhorred by David, and Hanun and the sons of Ammon send a thousand talents of silver, to hire to them, from Aram-Naharaim, and from Aram-Maachah, and from Zobah, chariots and horsemen;
field: 13019007
13
19
7
and they hire to them two and thirty thousand chariots, and the king of Maachah and his people, and they come in and encamp before Medeba, and the sons of Ammon have been gathered out of their cities, and come in to the battle.
field: 13019008
13
19
8
And David heareth, and sendeth Joab, and all the host of the mighty men,
field: 13019009
13
19
9
and the sons of Ammon come out and set battle in array at the opening of the city, and the kings who have come `are' by themselves in the field.
field: 13019010
13
19
10
And Joab seeth that the front of the battle hath been unto him, before and behind, and he chooseth out of all the choice in Israel, and setteth in array to meet Aram,
field: 13019011
13
19
11
and the remnant of the people he hath given into the hand of Abishai his brother, and they set in array to meet the sons of Ammon.
field: 13019012
13
19
12
And he saith, `If Aram be stronger than I, then thou hast been to me for salvation; and if the sons of Ammon be stronger than thou, then I have saved thee;
field: 13019013
13
19
13
be strong, and we strengthen ourselves, for our people, and for the cities of our God, and Jehovah doth that which is good in His eyes.'
field: 13019014
13
19
14
And Joab draweth nigh, and the people who `are' with him, before Aram to battle, and they flee from his face;
field: 13019015
13
19
15
and the sons of Ammon have seen that Aram hath fled, and they flee -- they also -- from the face of Abishai his brother, and go in to the city. And Joab cometh in to Jerusalem.
field: 13019016
13
19
16
And Aram seeth that they have been smitten before Israel, and send messengers, and bring out Aram that `is' beyond the River, and Shophach head of the host of Hadarezer `is' before them.
field: 13019017
13
19
17
And it is declared to David, and he gathereth all Israel, and passeth over the Jordan, and cometh in unto them, and setteth in array against them; yea, David setteth in array the battle to meet Aram, and they fight with him;
field: 13019018
13
19
18
and Aram fleeth from the face of Israel, and David slayeth of Aram seven thousand charioteers, and forty thousand footmen, and Shophach head of the host he hath put to death.
field: 13019019
13
19
19
And the servants of Hadarezer see that they have been smitten before Israel, and they make peace with David and serve him, and Aram hath not been willing to help the sons of Ammon any more.
field: 13020001
13
20
1
And it cometh to pass, at the time of the turn of the year -- at the time of the going out of the messengers -- that Joab leadeth out the force of the host, and destroyeth the land of the sons of Ammon, and cometh in and beseigeth Rabbah -- David is abiding in Jerusalem -- and Joab smiteth Rabbah, and breaketh it down.
field: 13020002
13
20
2
And David taketh the crown of their king from off his head, and findeth it `in' weight a talent of gold, and in it a precious stone, and it is on the head of David: and spoil of the city he hath brought out very much,
field: 13020003
13
20
3
and the people who `are' in it he hath brought out, and setteth to the saw, and to cutting instruments of iron, and to axes; and thus doth David to all cities of the sons of Ammon, and David turneth back, and all the people, to Jerusalem.
field: 13020004
13
20
4
And it cometh to pass, after this, that there remaineth war in Gezer with the Philistines, then hath Sibbechai the Hushathite smitten Sippai, of the children of the giant, and they are humbled.
field: 13020005
13
20
5
And there is again war with the Philistines, and Elhanan son of Jair smiteth Lahmi, brother of Goliath the Gittite, the wood of whose spear `is' like a beam of weavers.
field: 13020006
13
20
6
And there is again war in Gath, and there is a man of measure, and his fingers and his toes `are' six and six, twenty and four, and also, he hath been born to the giant.
field: 13020007
13
20
7
And he reproacheth Israel, and smite him doth Jonathan son of Shimea, brother of David.
field: 13020008
13
20
8
These were born to the giant in Gath, and they fall by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
field: 13021001
13
21
1
And there standeth up an adversary against Israel, and persuadeth David to number Israel,
field: 13021002
13
21
2
And David saith unto Joab, and unto the heads of the people, `Go, number Israel from Beer-Sheba even unto Dan, and bring unto me, and I know their number.'
field: 13021003
13
21
3
And Joab saith, `Jehovah doth add to His people as they are a hundred times; are they not, my lord, O king, all of them to my lord for servants? why doth my lord seek this? why is he for a cause of guilt to Israel?'
field: 13021004
13
21
4
And the word of the king `is' severe against Joab, and Joab goeth out, and goeth up and down in all Israel, and cometh in to Jerusalem.
field: 13021005
13
21
5
And Joab giveth the account of the numbering of the people unto David, and all Israel is a thousand thousand and a hundred thousand, each drawing sword, and Judah `is' four hundred and seventy thousand, each drawing sword.
field: 13021006
13
21
6
And Levi and Benjamin he hath not numbered in their midst, for the word of the king was abominable with Joab.
field: 13021007
13
21
7
And it is evil in the eyes of God concerning this thing, and He smiteth Israel,
field: 13021008
13
21
8
and David saith unto God, `I have sinned exceedingly, in that I have done this thing; and now, cause to pass away, I pray Thee, the iniquity of Thy servant, for I have acted very foolishly.'
field: 13021009
13
21
9
And Jehovah speaketh unto Gad, seer of David, saying:
field: 13021010
13
21
10
`Go, and thou hast spoken unto David, saying, Thus said Jehovah, Three -- I am stretching out unto thee; choose for thee one of these, and I do `it' to thee.'
field: 13021011
13
21
11
And Gad cometh in unto David, and saith to him, `Thus said Jehovah, Take for thee --
field: 13021012
13
21
12
either for three years -- famine, or three months to be consumed from the face of thine adversaries, even the sword of thine enemies to overtake, or three days the sword of Jehovah, even pestilence in the land, and a messenger of Jehovah destroying in all the border of Israel; and now, see; what word do I return to Him who is sending me?'
field: 13021013
13
21
13
And David saith unto Gad, `I am greatly distressed, let me fall, I pray thee, into the hand of Jehovah, for very many `are' His mercies, and into the hand of man let me not fall.'
field: 13021014
13
21
14
And Jehovah giveth a pestilence in Israel, and there fall of Israel seventy thousand men,
field: 13021015
13
21
15
and God sendeth a messenger to Jerusalem to destroy it, and as he is destroying Jehovah hath seen, and is comforted concerning the evil, and saith to the messenger who `is' destroying, `Enough, now, cease thy hand.' And the messenger of Jehovah is standing by the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite,
field: 13021016
13
21
16
and David lifteth up his eyes, and seeth the messenger of Jehovah standing between the earth and the heavens, and his sword drawn in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem, and David falleth, and the elders, covered with sackcloth, on their faces.
field: 13021017
13
21
17
And David saith unto God, `Did not I -- I say to number the people? Yea, I it `is' who have sinned, and done great evil: and these, the flock, what did they? O Jehovah, my God, let, I pray Thee, Thy hand be on me, and on the house of my father, and not on Thy people -- to be plagued.'
field: 13021018
13
21
18
And the messenger of Jehovah spake unto Gad, saying for David, `Surely David doth go up to raise an altar to Jehovah in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.'
field: 13021019
13
21
19
And David goeth up by the word of Gad, that he spake in the name of Jehovah.
field: 13021020
13
21
20
And Ornan turneth back, and seeth the messenger, and his four sons `are' with him, hiding themselves, and Ornan is threshing wheat.
field: 13021021
13
21
21
And David cometh in unto Ornan, and Ornan looketh attentively, and seeth David, and goeth out from the threshing-floor, and boweth himself to David -- face to the earth.
field: 13021022
13
21
22
And David saith unto Ornan, `Give to me the place of the threshing-floor, and I build in it an altar to Jehovah; for full silver give it to me, and the plague is restrained from the people.'
field: 13021023
13
21
23
And Ornan saith unto David, `Take to thee -- and my lord the king doth that which is good in his eyes: see, I have given the oxen for burnt-offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for a present; the whole I have given.'
field: 13021024
13
21
24
And king David saith to Ornan, `Nay, for I surely buy for full silver; for I do not lift up that which is thine to Jehovah, so as to offer a burnt-offering without cost.'
field: 13021025
13
21
25
And David giveth to Ornan for the place shekels of gold `in' weight six hundred;

And Jehovah saith to the messenger, and he turneth back his sword unto its sheath.
field: 13021028
13
21
28
At that time when David seeth that Jehovah hath answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificeth there;
field: 13021029
13
21
29
and the tabernacle of Jehovah that Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt-offering, `are' at that time in a high place, in Gibeon;
field: 13021030
13
21
30
and David is not able to go before it to seek God, for he hath been afraid because of the sword of the messenger of Jehovah.
field: 13022001
13
22
1
And David saith, `This is the house of Jehovah God, and this the altar for burnt-offering for Israel.'
field: 13022002
13
22
2
And David saith to gather the sojourners who `are' in the land of Israel, and appointeth hewers to hew hewn-stones to build a house of God.

And David saith, `Solomon my son `is' a youth and tender, and the house to be built to Jehovah `is' to be made exceedingly great, for name and for beauty to all the lands; let me prepare, I pray Thee, for it;' and David prepareth in abundance before his death.
field: 13022006
13
22
6
And he calleth for Solomon his son, and chargeth him to build a house to Jehovah, God of Israel,
field: 13022007
13
22
7
and David saith to Solomon his son, `As for me, it hath been with my heart to build a house to the name of Jehovah my God,
field: 13022008
13
22
8
and the word of Jehovah `is' against me, saying, Blood in abundance thou hast shed, and great wars thou hast made: thou dost not build a house to My name, for much blood thou hast shed to the earth before Me.
field: 13022009
13
22
9
`Lo, a son is born to thee; he is a man of rest, and I have given rest to him from all his enemies round about, for Solomon is his name, and peace and quietness I give unto Israel in his days;
field: 13022010

22
10
he doth build a house to My name, and he is to Me for a son, and I `am' to him for a father, and I have established the throne of his kingdom over Israel unto the age.
field: 13022011
13
22
11
`Now, my son, Jehovah is with thee, and thou hast prospered, and hast built the house of Jehovah thy God, as He spake concerning thee.
field: 13022012
13
22
12
Only, Jehovah give to thee wisdom and understanding, and charge thee concerning Israel, even to keep the law of Jehovah thy God;
field: 13022013
13
22
13
then thou dost prosper, if thou dost observe to do the statutes and the judgments that Jehovah charged Moses with concerning Israel; be strong and courageous; do not fear, nor be cast down.
field: 13022014
13
22
14
`And lo, in mine affliction, I have prepared for the house of Jehovah of gold talents a hundred thousand, and of silver a thousand thousand talents; and of brass and of iron there is no weighing, for in abundance it hath been, and wood and stones I have prepared, and to them thou dost add.
field: 13022015
13
22
15
`And with thee in abundance `are' workmen, hewers and artificers of stone and of wood, and every skilful man for every work.
field: 13022016
13
22
16
To the gold, to the silver, and to the brass, and to the iron, there is no number; arise and do, and Jehovah is with thee.'
field: 13022017
13
22
17
And David giveth charge to all heads of Israel to give help to Solomon his son,
field: 13022018
13
22
18
`Is not Jehovah your God with you? yea, He hath given rest to you round about, for He hath given into my hand the inhabitants of the land, and subdued hath been the land before His people.
field: 13022019

`Now, give your heart and your soul to seek to Jehovah your God, and rise and build the sanctuary of Jehovah God, to bring in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and the holy vessels of God, to the house that is built to the name of Jehovah.'
field: 13023001
13
23
1
And David is old, and satisfied with days, and causeth his son Solomon to reign over Israel,
field: 13023002
13
23
2
and gathereth all the heads of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites;
field: 13023003
13
23
3
and the Levites are numbered from a son of thirty years and upward, and their number, by their polls, is of mighty men thirty and eight thousand.

Of these to preside over the work of the house of Jehovah `are' twenty and four thousand, and officers and judges six thousand,

and also of the Levites, `None `are' to bear the tabernacle and all its vessels for its service;'

And Solomon sitteth on the throne of Jehovah for king instead of David his father, and prospereth, and all Israel hearken unto him,

and all the heads, and the mighty men, and also all the sons of king David have given a hand under Solomon the king;

And God saith to Solomon, `Because that this hath been with thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, and honour, and the life of those hating thee, and also many days hast not asked, and dost ask for thyself wisdom and knowledge, so that thou dost judge My people over which I have caused thee to reign --

`And now, send to me a wise man to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and crimson, and blue, and knowing to grave gravings with the wise men who `are' with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father prepared;

And Huram saith, `Blessed `is' Jehovah, God of Israel, who made the heavens and the earth, who hath given to David the king a wise son, knowing wisdom and understanding, who doth build a house for Jehovah, and a house for his kingdom.

And Solomon numbereth all the men, the sojourners who `are' in the land of Israel, after the numbering with which David his father numbered them, and they are found a hundred and fifty thousand, and three thousand, and six hundred;

And Solomon beginneth to build the house of Jehovah, in Jerusalem, in the mount of Moriah, where He appeared to David his father, in the place that David had prepared, in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite,

and he beginneth to build in the second `day', in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.

And `in' these hath Solomon been instructed to build the house of God: The length `in' cubits by the former measure `is' sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.

As to the porch that `is' on the front, the length `is' by the front of the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the height a hundred and twenty, and he overlayeth it within with pure gold.

And the large house he hath covered with fir-trees, and he doth cover it with good gold, and causeth to ascend on it palms and chains,

and he overlayeth the house with precious stone for beauty, and the gold `is' gold of Parvaim,

and he covereth the house, the beams, the thresholds, and its walls, and its doors, with gold, and hath graved cherubs on the walls.

And he maketh the most holy house: its length `is' by the front of the breadth of the house twenty cubits, and its breadth twenty cubits, and he covereth it with good gold, to six hundred talents;

and the weight of the nails `is' fifty shekels of gold, and the upper chambers he hath covered with gold.
field: 14003010
14

And he maketh in the most holy house two cherubs, image work, and he overlayeth them with gold;

11
as to the wings of the cherubs, their length `is' twenty cubits, the wing of the one `is' five cubits, touching the wall of the house, and the other wing `is' five cubits, touching the wing of the other cherub.

The wings of these cherubs are spreading forth twenty cubits, and they are standing on their feet and their faces `are' inward.
field: 14003014

And he maketh the vail of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and causeth cherubs to go up on it.
field: 14003015
14

15
And he maketh at the front of the house two pillars, thirty and five cubits in length, and the ornament that `is' on their heads five cubits.

And he maketh chains in the oracle, and putteth on the heads of the pillars, and maketh a hundred pomegranates, and putteth on the chains.

And he raiseth up the pillars on the front of the temple, one on the right, and one on the left, and calleth the name of that on the right Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.

And he maketh an altar of brass, twenty cubits its length, and twenty cubits its breadth, and ten cubits its height.

And he maketh the molten sea; ten by the cubit, from its edge unto its edge, round in compass, and five by the cubit its height, and a line of thirty by the cubit doth compass it, round about.

It is standing on twelve oxen, three facing the north, and three facing the west, and three facing the south, and three facing the east, and the sea `is' upon them above, and all their hinder parts `are' within.

And he maketh ten lavers, and putteth five on the right, and five on the left, to wash with them; the work of the burnt-offering they purge with them; and the sea `is' for priests to wash with.

And he maketh the ten candlesticks of gold, according to their ordinance, and placeth in the temple, five on the right, and five on the left.

And he maketh ten tables, and placeth in the temple, five on the right, and five on the left; and he maketh bowls of gold a hundred.

And he maketh the court of the priests, and the great court, and doors for the court, and their doors he hath overlaid with brass.

And the sea he hath placed on the right shoulder eastward, over-against the south.

And Huram maketh the pots, and the shovels, and the bowls, and Huram finisheth to make the work that he made for king Solomon in the house of God;

two pillars, and the bowls, and the crowns on the heads of the two pillars, and the two wreaths to cover the two bowls of the crowns that `are' on the heads of the pillars;

and the pomegranates four hundred to the two wreaths, two rows of pomegranates to the one wreath, to cover the two bowls of the crowns that `are' on the front of the pillars.

And the bases he hath made; and the lavers he hath made on the bases;

the one sea, and the twelve oxen under it,

and the pots, and the shovels, and the forks, and all their vessels, hath Huram his father made for king Solomon, for the house of Jehovah, of brass purified.

17
In the circuit of the Jordan hath the king cast them, in the thick soil of the ground, between Succoth and Zeredathah.
field: 14004018
14
4
18
And Solomon maketh all these vessels in great abundance, that the weight of the brass hath not been searched out.
field: 14004019
14
4
19
And Solomon maketh all the vessels that `are for' the house of God, and the altar of gold, and the tables, and on them `is' bread of the presence;
field: 14004020
14
4
20
and the candlesticks, and their lamps, for their burning according to the ordinance, before the oracle, of gold refined;

14

21
and the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs of gold -- it `is' the perfection of gold;
field: 14004022
14

22
and the snuffers, and the bowls, and the spoons, and the censers, of gold refined, and the opening of the house, its innermost doors to the holy of holies, and the doors of the house to the temple, of gold.
field: 14005001

And all the work that Solomon made for the house of Jehovah is finished, and Solomon bringeth in the sanctified things of David his father, and the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels he hath put among the treasures of the house of God.
field: 14005002
14

2
Then doth Solomon assemble the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, princes of the fathers of the sons of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah from the city of David -- it `is' Zion.
field: 14005003
14
5
3
And assembled unto the king are all the men of Israel in the feast -- it `is' the seventh month;
field: 14005004
14
5
4
and all the elders of Israel come in, and the Levites lift up the ark,
field: 14005005
14
5
5
and they bring up the ark, and the tent of meeting, and all the vessels of the sanctuary that `are' in the tent; brought them up have the priests, the Levites;
field: 14005006
14
5
6
and king Solomon and all the company of Israel who are convened unto him before the ark are sacrificing sheep and oxen, that are not counted nor numbered from multitude.
field: 14005007
14
5
7
And the priests bring in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah unto its place, unto the oracle of the house, unto the holy of holies, unto the place of the wings of the cherubs;
field: 14005008
14
5
8
and the cherubs are spreading out wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubs cover over the ark, and over its staves, from above;
field: 14005009
14
5
9
and they lengthen the staves, and the heads of the staves are seen out of the ark on the front of the oracle, and they are not seen without; and it is there unto this day.
field: 14005010
14
5
10
There is nothing in the ark but the two tables that Moses gave in Horeb, where Jehovah covenanted with the sons of Israel, in their going out from Egypt.
field: 14005011
14
5
11
And it cometh to pass, in the going out of the priests from the sanctuary -- for all the priests who are present have sanctified themselves, there is none to watch by courses,
field: 14005012
14
5
12
and the Levites, the singers, to all of them, to Asaph, to Heman, to Jeduthun, and to their sons, and to their brethren, clothed in white linen, with cymbals, and with psalteries, and harps, are standing on the east of the altar, and with them priests, to a hundred and twenty, blowing with trumpets --
field: 14005013
14
5
13
yea, it cometh to pass, as one `are' trumpeters and singers, to sound -- one voice -- to praise and to give thanks to Jehovah, and at the lifting up of the sound with trumpets, and with cymbals, and with instruments of song, and at giving praise to Jehovah, for good, for to the age `is' His kindness, that the house is filled with a cloud -- the house of Jehovah,
field: 14005014
14
5
14
and the priests have not been able to stand to minister from the presence of the cloud, for the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house of God.

Then said Solomon, `Jehovah said -- to dwell in thick darkness,
field: 14006002
14

2
and I -- I have built a house of habitation for Thee, and a fixed place for Thy dwelling to the ages.'

And the king turneth round his face, and blesseth the whole assembly of Israel, and the whole assembly of Israel is standing,

14

4
and he saith, `Blessed `is' Jehovah, God of Israel, who hath spoken with His mouth with David my father, and with His hands hath fulfilled `it', saying:

14
6
5
`From the day that I brought out My people from the land of Egypt, I have not fixed on a city out of any of the tribes of Israel to build a house for my name being there, and I have not fixed on a man to be leader over My people Israel;

14

and I fix on Jerusalem for My name being there, and I fix on David to be over My people Israel.

6
7
`And it is with the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of Jehovah God of Israel,

8
and Jehovah saith unto David my father, Because that it hath been with thy heart to build a house for My name, thou hast done well that it hath been with thy heart,
field: 14006009
14
6
9
but thou dost not build the house, for thy son who cometh forth out from thy loins, he doth build the house for My name.

14
6
10
`And Jehovah doth establish His word that He spake, and I rise up in the stead of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as Jehovah spake, and I build the house for the name of Jehovah, God of Israel,

11
and I place there the ark, where `is' the covenant of Jehovah that He made with the sons of Israel.'

And he standeth before the altar of Jehovah, over-against all the assembly of Israel, and spreadeth out his hand, --

13
for Solomon hath made a scaffold of brass, and putteth it in the midst of the court, five cubits its length, and five cubits its breadth, and three cubits its height, and he standeth upon it, and kneeleth on his knees over-against all the assembly of Israel, and spreadeth forth his hands towards the heavens --
field: 14006014
14

and saith, `O Jehovah God of Israel, there is not like Thee a god in the heavens and in the earth, keeping the covenant and the kindness for Thy servants who are walking before Thee with all their heart;

And all the sons of Israel are looking on the descending of the fire, and the honour of Jehovah on the house, and they bow -- faces to the earth -- on the pavement, and do obeisance, and give thanks to Jehovah, for good, for to the age `is' His kindness.

11
And Solomon finisheth the house of Jehovah, and the house of the king; and all that hath come on the heart of Solomon to do in the house of Jehovah, and in his own house, he hath caused to prosper.
field: 14007012
14
7
12
And Jehovah appeareth unto Solomon by night, and saith to him, `I have heard thy prayer, and have fixed on this place to Me for a house of sacrifice.
field: 14007013
14
7
13
If I restrain the heavens and there is no rain, and if I lay charge on the locust to consume the land, and if I send pestilence among My people --
field: 14007014
14
7
14
and My people on whom My name is called be humbled, and pray, and seek My face, and turn back from their evil ways, then I -- I hear from the heavens, and forgive their sin, and heal their land.
field: 14007015
14
7
15
`Now, Mine eyes are open, and Mine ears attentive, to the prayer of this place;
field: 14007016
14
7
16
and now, I have chosen and sanctified this house for My name being there unto the age; yea, Mine eyes and My heart have been there all the days.
field: 14007017
14
7
17
`And thou, if thou dost walk before Me as David thy father walked, even to do according to all that I have commanded thee, and My statutes and My judgments dost keep --
field: 14007018
14
7
18
then I have established the throne of thy kingdom, as I covenanted with David thy father, saying, There is not cut off a man to thee -- a ruler in Israel;
field: 14007019
14
7
19
and if ye turn back -- ye -- and have forsaken My statutes, and My commands, that I have placed before you, and have gone and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them -- then I have plucked them from off My ground that I have given to them,
field: 14007020
14
7
20
and this house that I have sanctified for My name, I cast from before My face, and make it for a proverb, and for a byword, among all the peoples.
field: 14007021
14
7
21
`And this house that hath been high, to every one passing by it, is an astonishment, and he hath said, Wherefore hath Jehovah done thus to this land, and to this house?
field: 14007022
14
7
22
and they have said, Because that they have forsaken Jehovah, God of their fathers, who brought them out from the land of Egypt, and lay hold on other gods, and bow themselves to them, and serve them, therefore He hath brought upon them all this evil.'
field: 14008001
14

1
And it cometh to pass, at the end of twenty years, that Solomon hath built the house of Jehovah, and his own house.
field: 14008002
14
8
2
As to the cities that Huram hath given to Solomon, Solomon hath built them, and there he causeth the sons of Israel to dwell.
field: 14008003
14
8
3
And Solomon goeth to Hamath-Zobah, and layeth hold upon it;
field: 14008004
14
8
4
and he buildeth Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the cities of store that he hath built in Hamath.
field: 14008005
14
8
5
And he buildeth Beth-Horon the upper, and Beth-Horon the lower -- cities of defence, with walls, two-leaved doors, and bar --
field: 14008006
14
8
6
and Baalath, and all the cities of store that Solomon had, and all the cities of the chariot, and the cities of the horsemen, and all the desire of Solomon that he desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
field: 14008007
14
8
7
All the people who are left of the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, who are not of Israel --
field: 14008008
14
8
8
of their sons who have been left after them in the land, whom the sons of Israel consumed not -- doth Solomon lift up a tribute unto this day.
field: 14008009
14
8
9
And none of the sons of Israel hath Solomon made servants for his work, but they `are' men of war, and heads of his captains, and heads of his charioteers, and of his horsemen;
field: 14008010
14
8
10
and these `are' heads of the officers whom king Solomon hath, two hundred and fifty who are rulers among the people.
field: 14008011
14
8
11
And the daughter of Pharaoh hath Solomon brought up from the city of David to the house that he built for her, for he said, `My wife doth not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, for they are holy unto whom hath come the ark of Jehovah.'
field: 14008012
14
8
12
Then hath Solomon caused to ascend burnt-offerings to Jehovah on the altar of Jehovah that he built before the porch,
field: 14008013
14
8
13
even by the matter of a day in its day, to cause to ascend according to the command of Moses, on sabbaths, and on new moons, and on appointed seasons, three times in a year -- in the feast of unleavened things, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of booths.
field: 14008014
14
8
14
And he establisheth, according to the ordinance of David his father, the courses of the priests over their service, and of the Levites over their charges, to praise and to minister over-against the priests, according to the matter of a day in its day, and the gatekeepers in their courses at gate and gate, for so `is' the command of David the man of God.
field: 14008015
14
8
15
And they have not turned aside `from' the command of the king concerning the priests and the Levites, in reference to any matter, and to the treasures.
field: 14008016
14
8
16
And all the work of Solomon is prepared till the day of the foundation of the house of Jehovah, and till its completion; perfect is the house of Jehovah.
field: 14008017
14
8
17
Then hath Solomon gone to Ezion-Geber, and unto Elath, on the border of the sea, in the land of Edom;
field: 14008018
14
8
18
and Huram sendeth to him, by the hand of his servants, ships and servants knowing the sea, and they go with servants of Solomon to Ophir, and take thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and bring in unto king Solomon.
field: 14009001
14
9
1
And the queen of Sheba hath heard of the fame of Solomon, and cometh in to try Solomon with acute sayings, to Jerusalem, with a very great company, and camels bearing spices and gold in abundance, and precious stone; and she cometh in unto Solomon, and speaketh with him all that hath been with her heart,
field: 14009002
14
9
2
and Solomon declareth to her all her matters, and there hath not been hid a thing from Solomon that he hath not declared to her.
field: 14009003
14
9
3
And the queen of Sheba seeth the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he hath built,
field: 14009004
14
9
4
and the food of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the standing of his ministers, and their clothing, and his stewards, and their clothing, an his burnt-offering that he offered up in the house of Jehovah, and there hath not been any more spirit in her.
field: 14009005
14
9
5
And she saith unto the king, `True `is' the word that I heard in my land concerning thy matters and concerning thy wisdom,
field: 14009006
14
9
6
and I have given no credence to their words, till that I have come, and mine eyes see, and lo, there hath not been declared to me the half of the abundance of thy wisdom -- thou hast added unto the report that I heard.
field: 14009007
14
9
7
`O the happiness of thy men, and the happiness of thy servants -- these -- who are standing before thee continually, and hearing thy wisdom.
field: 14009008
14
9
8
Let Jehovah thy God be blessed who hath delighted in thee, to put thee on His throne for king for Jehovah thy God; in the love of thy God to Israel, to establish it to the age, He hath put thee over them for king, to do judgment and righteousness.'
field: 14009009
14
9
9
And she giveth to the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices in great abundance, and precious stone; and there hath not been any such spice as the queen of Sheba hath given to king Solomon.
field: 14009010
14
9
10
And also, servants of Huram, and servants of Solomon, who brought in gold from Ophir, have brought in algum-trees and precious stone.
field: 14009011
14
9
11
And the king maketh the algum-trees staircases for the house of Jehovah, and for the house of the king, and harps and psalteries for singers; and there have been none seen like these before in the land of Judah.
field: 14009012
14
9
12
And king Solomon hath given to the queen of Sheba all her desire that she asked, apart from that which she had brought unto the king, and she turneth and goeth to her land, she and her servants.
field: 14009013
14
9
13
And the weight of the gold that is coming to Solomon in one year is six hundred and sixty and six talents of gold,
field: 14009014
14
9
14
apart from `what' the tourists, and the merchants, are bringing in; and all the kings of Arabia, and the governors of the land, are bringing in gold and silver to Solomon.
field: 14009015
14
9
15
And king Solomon maketh two hundred targets of alloyed gold, six hundred `shekels' of alloyed gold he causeth to go up on the one target;
field: 14009016
14
9
16
and three hundred shields of alloyed gold, three hundred `shekels' of gold he causeth to go up on the one shield, and the king putteth them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
field: 14009017
14
9
17
And the king maketh a great throne of ivory, and overlayeth it with pure gold;
field: 14009018
14
9
18
and six steps `are' to the throne, and a footstool of gold, to the throne they are fastened, and hands `are' on this `side' and on that on the place of the sitting, and two lions are standing near the hands,
field: 14009019
14
9
19
and twelve lions are standing there on the six steps on this `side', and on that: it hath not been made so for any kingdom.
field: 14009020
14
9
20
And all the drinking vessels of king Solomon `are' of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon `are' of refined gold -- silver is not reckoned in the days of Solomon for anything;
field: 14009021
14
9
21
for ships of the king are going to Tarshish, with servants of Huram: once in three years come do the ships of Tarshish bearing gold, and silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks.
field: 14009022
14
9
22
And king Solomon becometh greater than any of the kings of the earth for riches and wisdom;
field: 14009023
14
9
23
and all the kings of the earth are seeking the presence of Solomon to hear his wisdom that God hath put in his heart,
field: 14009024
14
9
24
and they are bringing in each his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, harness, and spices, horses, and mules, a rate year by year.
field: 14009025
14
9
25
And there are to Solomon four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, and he placed them in cities of the chariot, and with the king in Jerusalem.
field: 14009026
14
9
26
And he is ruling over all the kings from the River even unto the land of the Philistines, and unto the border of Egypt.
field: 14009027
14
9
27
And the king maketh the silver in Jerusalem as stones, and the cedars he hath made as sycamores, that `are' in the low country, for abundance,
field: 14009028
14
9
28
and they are bringing out horses from Egypt to Solomon, and from all the lands.
field: 14009029
14
9
29
And the rest of the matters of Solomon, the first and the last, are they not written beside the matters of Nathan the prophet, and beside the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and with the visions of Iddo the seer concerning Jeroboam son of Nebat?
field: 14009030
14
9
30
And Solomon reigneth in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years,
field: 14009031
14
9
31
and Solomon lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the city of David his father, and reign doth Rehoboam his son in his stead.
field: 14010001
14
10
1
And Rehoboam goeth to Shechem, for `to' Shechem have all Israel come to cause him to reign.
field: 14010002
14
10
2
And it cometh to pass, at Jeroboam son of Nebat's -- who `is' in Egypt because he hath fled from the face of Solomon the king -- hearing, that Jeroboam turneth back out of Egypt;
field: 14010003
14
10
3
and they send and call for him, and Jeroboam cometh in, and all Israel, and speak unto Rehoboam, saying,
field: 14010004
14
10
4
`Thy father made our yoke sharp, and now, make light `somewhat' of the sharp service of thy father, and of his heavy yoke that he put upon us, and we serve thee.'
field: 14010005
14
10
5
And he saith unto them, `Yet three days -- then return ye unto me;' and the people go.
field: 14010006
14
10
6
And king Rehoboam consulteth with the aged men who have been standing before Solomon his father in his being alive, saying, `How are ye counselling to answer this people?'
field: 14010007
14
10
7
And they speak unto him, saying, `If thou dost become good to this people, and hast been pleased with them, and spoken unto them good words, then they have been to thee servants all the days.'
field: 14010008
14
10
8
And he forsaketh the counsel of the aged men that they counselled him, and consulteth with the lads who have grown up with him, those standing before him,
field: 14010009
14
10
9
and he saith unto them, `What are ye counselling, and we answer this people that have spoken unto me, saying, Make light `somewhat' of the yoke that thy father put upon us?'
field: 14010010
14
10
10
And the lads who have grown up with him, speak with him, saying, `Thus dost thou say to the people who have spoken unto thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, and thou, make light `somewhat' of our yoke; thus dost thou say unto them, My little finger is thicker than the loins of my father;
field: 14010011
14
10
11
and now, my father laid on you a heavy yoke, and I -- I add unto your yoke; my father chastised you with whips, and I -- with scorpions.'
field: 14010012
14
10
12
And Jeroboam cometh in, and all the people, unto Rehoboam on the third day, as the king spake, saying, `Return unto me on the third day.'
field: 14010013
14
10
13
And the king answereth them sharply, and king Rehoboam forsaketh the counsel of the aged men,
field: 14010014
14
10
14
and speaketh unto them according to the counsel of the lads, saying, `My father made your yoke heavy, and I -- I add unto it; my father chastised you with whips, and I -- with scorpions.'
field: 14010015
14
10
15
And the king hath not hearkened unto the people, for the revolution hath been from God, for the sake of Jehovah's establishing His word that He spake by the hand of Abijah the Shilonite unto Jeroboam son of Nebat.
field: 14010016
14
10
16
And all Israel have seen that the king hath not hearkened to them, and the people send back `to' the king, saying, `What portion have we in David? yea, there is no inheritance in a son of Jesse; each to thy tents, O Israel; now, see thy house -- David,' and all Israel go to their tents.
field: 14010017
14
10
17
As to the sons of Israel who are dwelling in the cities of Judah -- Rehoboam reigneth over them.
field: 14010018
14
10
18
And king Rehoboam sendeth Hadoram, who `is' over the tribute, and the sons of Israel cast at him stones, and he dieth; and king Rehoboam hath strengthened himself to go up into a chariot to flee to Jerusalem;
field: 14010019
14
10
19
and Israel transgress against the house of David unto this day.
field: 14011001
14
11
1
And Rehoboam cometh in to Jerusalem, and assembleth the house of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand chosen warriors, to fight with Israel, to bring back the kingdom to Rehoboam.
field: 14011002
14
11
2
And a word of Jehovah is unto Shemaiah, a man of God, saying,
field: 14011003
14
11
3
`Speak unto Rehoboam son of Solomon king of Judah, and unto all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
field: 14011004
14
11
4
Thus said Jehovah, Ye do not go up nor fight with your brethren, turn back each to his house, for from Me hath this thing been;' and they hear the words of Jehovah, and turn back from going against Jeroboam.
field: 14011005
14
11
5
And Rehoboam dwelleth in Jerusalem, and buildeth cities for a bulwark in Judah,
field: 14011006
14
11
6
yea, he buildeth Beth-Lehem and Etam, and Tekoa,
field: 14011007
14
11
7
and Beth-Zur, and Shocho, and Adullam,
field: 14011008
14
11
8
and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
field: 14011009
14
11
9
and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
field: 14011010
14
11
10
and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, that `are' in Judah and in Benjamin, cities of bulwarks.
field: 14011011
14
11
11
And he strengtheneth the bulwarks, and putteth in them leaders, and treasures of food, and oil, and wine,
field: 14011012
14
11
12
and in every city and city targets and spears, and strengtheneth them very greatly; and he hath Judah and Benjamin.
field: 14011013
14
11
13
And the priests, and the Levites, that `are' in all Israel, have stationed themselves by him, out of all their border,
field: 14011014
14
11
14
for the Levites have left their suburbs and their possession, and they come to Judah and to Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons have cast them off from acting as priests to Jehovah,
field: 14011015
14
11
15
and he establisheth to him priests for high places, and for goats, and for calves, that he made --
field: 14011016
14
11
16
and after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, those giving their heart to seek Jehovah, God of Israel, have come in to Jerusalem to sacrifice to Jehovah, God of their father.
field: 14011017
14
11
17
And they strengthen the kingdom of Judah, and strengthen Rehoboam son of Solomon, for three years, because they walked in the way of David and Solomon for three years.
field: 14011018
14
11
18
And Rehoboam taketh to him a wife, Mahalath, child of Jerimoth son of David, `and' Abigail daughter of Eliab, son of Jesse.
field: 14011019
14
11
19
And she beareth to him sons, Jeush, and Shamaria, and Zaham.
field: 14011020
14
11
20
And after her he hath taken Maachah daughter of Absalom, and she beareth to him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
field: 14011021
14
11
21
And Rehoboam loveth Maachah daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines -- for eighteen wives he hath taken, and sixty concubines -- and he begetteth twenty and eight sons, and sixty daughters.
field: 14011022
14
11
22
And Rehoboam appointeth for head Abijah son of Maachah, for leader among his brethren, for to cause him to reign.
field: 14011023
14
11
23
And he hath understanding, and spreadeth out of all his sons to all lands of Judah and Benjamin, to all cities of the bulwarks, and giveth to them provision in abundance; and he asketh a multitude of wives.
field: 14012001
14
12
1
And it cometh to pass, at the establishing of the kingdom of Rehoboam, and at his strengthening himself, he hath forsaken the law of Jehovah, and all Israel with him.
field: 14012002
14
12
2
And it cometh to pass, in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, come up hath Shishak king of Egypt against Jerusalem -- because they trespassed against Jehovah --
field: 14012003
14
12
3
with a thousand and two hundred chariots, and with sixty thousand horsemen, and there is no number to the people who have come with him out of Egypt -- Lubim, Sukkiim, and Cushim --
field: 14012004
14
12
4
and he captureth the cities of the bulwarks that `are' to Judah, and cometh in unto Jerusalem.
field: 14012005
14
12
5
And Shemaiah the prophet hath come in unto Rehoboam and the heads of Judah who have been gathered unto Jerusalem from the presence of Shishak, and saith to them, `Thus said Jehovah, Ye have forsaken Me, and also, I have left you in the hand of Shishak;'
field: 14012006
14
12
6
and the heads of Israel are humbled, and the king, and they say, `Righteous `is' Jehovah.'
field: 14012007
14
12
7
And when Jehovah seeth that they have been humbled, a word of Jehovah hath been unto Shemaiah, saying, `They have been humbled; I do not destroy them, and I have given to them as a little thing for an escape, and I pour not out My fury in Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak;
field: 14012008
14
12
8
but they become servants to him, and they know My service, and the service of the kingdoms of the lands.'
field: 14012009
14
12
9
And Shishak king of Egypt cometh up against Jerusalem, and taketh the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the house of the king -- the whole he hath taken -- and he taketh the shields of gold that Solomon had made;
field: 14012010
14
12
10
and king Rehoboam maketh in their stead shields of brass, and hath given `them' a charge on the hand of the heads of the runners who are keeping the opening of the house of the king;
field: 14012011
14
12
11
and it cometh to pass, from the time of the going in of the king to the house of Jehovah, the runners have come in and lifted them up, and brought them back unto the chamber of the runners.
field: 14012012
14
12
12
And in his being humbled, turned back from him hath the wrath of Jehovah, so as not to destroy to completion; and also, in Judah there have been good things.
field: 14012013
14
12
13
And king Rehoboam strengtheneth himself in Jerusalem, and reigneth; for a son of forty and two years `is' Rehoboam in his reigning, and seventeen years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, the city that Jehovah hath chosen to put His name there, out of all the tribes of Israel, and the name of his mother `is' Naamah the Ammonitess,
field: 14012014
14
12
14
and he doth the evil thing, for he hath not prepared his heart to seek Jehovah.
field: 14012015
14
12
15
And the matters of Rehoboam, the first and the last, are they not written among the matters of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer, concerning genealogy? And the wars of Rehoboam and Jeroboam `are' all the days;
field: 14012016
14
12
16
and Rehoboam lieth with his fathers, and is buried in the city of David, and reign doth Abijah his son in his stead.
field: 14013001
14
13
1
In the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam -- Abijah reigneth over Judah;
field: 14013002
14
13
2
three years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, (and the name of his mother `is' Michaiah daughter of Uriel, from Gibeah,) and war hath been between Abijah and Jeroboam.
field: 14013003
14
13
3
And Abijah directeth the war with a force of mighty men of war, four hundred thousand chosen men, and Jeroboam hath set in array with him battle, with eight hundred thousand chosen men, mighty of valour.
field: 14013004
14
13
4
And Abijah riseth up on the hill of Zemaraim that `is' in the hill-country of Ephraim, and saith, `Hear me, Jeroboam and all Israel!

Is it not for you to know that Jehovah, God of Israel, hath given the kingdom to David over Israel to the age, to him and to his sons -- a covenant of salt?
field: 14013006
14
13
6
and rise up doth Jeroboam, son of Nebat, servant of Solomon son of David, and rebelleth against his lord!
field: 14013007
14
13
7
`And there are gathered unto him vain men, sons of worthlessness, and they strengthen themselves against Rehoboam son of Solomon, and Rehoboam was a youth, and tender of heart, and hath not strengthened himself against them.
field: 14013008
14
13
8
`And now, ye are saying to strengthen yourselves before the kingdom of Jehovah in the hand of the sons of David, and ye `are' a numerous multitude, and with you calves of gold that Jeroboam hath made to you for gods.
field: 14013009
14
13

`Have ye not cast out the priests of Jehovah, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and make to you priests like the peoples of the lands? every one who hath come to fill his hand with a bullock, a son of the herd, and seven rams, even he hath been a priest to No-gods!
field: 14013010
14
13
10
`As for us, Jehovah `is' our God, and we have not forsaken Him, and priests are ministering to Jehovah, sons of Aaron and the Levites, in the work,
field: 14013011
14
13
11
and are making perfume to Jehovah, burnt-offerings morning by morning, and evening by evening, and perfume of spices, and the arrangement of bread `is' on the pure table, and the candlestick of gold, and its lamps, to burn evening by evening, for we are keeping the charge of Jehovah our God, and ye -- ye have forsaken Him.
field: 14013012
14
13
12
`And lo, with us -- at `our' head -- `is' God, and His priests and trumpets of shouting to shout against you; O sons of Israel, do not fight with Jehovah, God of your fathers, for ye do not prosper.'
field: 14013013
14
13
13
And Jeroboam hath brought round the ambush to come in from behind them, and they are before Judah, and the ambush `is' behind them.
field: 14013014
14
13
14
And Judah turneth, and lo, against them `is' the battle, before and behind, and they cry to Jehovah, and the priests are blowing with trumpets,
field: 14013015
14
13
15
and the men of Judah shout -- and it cometh to pass, at the shouting of the men of Judah, that God hath smitten Jeroboam, and all Israel, before Abijah and Judah.
field: 14013016
14
13
16
And the sons of Israel flee from the face of Judah, and God giveth them into their hand,
field: 14013017
14
13
17
and Abijah and his people smite among them a great smiting, and there fall wounded of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men.
field: 14013018
14
13
18
And the sons of Israel are humbled at that time, and the sons of Judah are strong, for they have leant on Jehovah, God of their fathers.
field: 14013019
14
13
19
And Abijah pursueth after Jeroboam, and captureth from him cities, Beth-El and its small towns, and Jeshanah and its small towns, and Ephraim and its small towns.
field: 14013020
14
13
20
And Jeroboam hath not retained power any more in the days of Abijah, and Jehovah smiteth him, and he dieth.
field: 14013021
14
13
21
And Abijah strengtheneth himself, and taketh to him fourteen wives, and begetteth twenty and two sons, and sixteen daughters,
field: 14013022
14
13
22
and the rest of the matters of Abijah, and his ways, and his words, are written in the `Inquiry' of the prophet Iddo.
field: 14014001
14
14
1
And Abijah lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the city of David, and reign doth Asa his son in his stead: in his days was the land quiet ten years.
field: 14014002
14
14
2
And Asa doth that which is good, and that which is right, in the eyes of Jehovah his God,
field: 14014003
14
14
3
and turneth aside the altars of the stranger, and the high places, and breaketh the standing-pillars, and cutteth down the shrines,
field: 14014004
14
14
4
and saith to Judah to seek Jehovah, God of their fathers, and to do the law and the command;
field: 14014005
14
14
5
and he turneth aside out of all cities of Judah the high places and the images, and the kingdom is quiet before him.
field: 14014006
14
14
6
And he buildeth cities of bulwarks in Judah, for the land hath quiet, and there is no war with him in these years, because Jehovah hath given rest to him.
field: 14014007
14
14
7
And he saith to Judah, `Let us build these cities, and compass `them' with wall, and towers, two-leaved doors, and bars, while the land `is' before us, because we have sought Jehovah our God, we have sought, and He giveth rest to us round about;' and they build and prosper.
field: 14014008
14
14
8
And there is to Asa a force bearing target and spear, out of Judah three hundred thousand, and out of Benjamin, bearing shield and treading bow, two hundred and eighty thousand: all these `are' mighty of valour.
field: 14014009
14
14
9
And come out unto them doth Zerah the Cushite with a force of a thousand thousand, and chariots three hundred, and he cometh in unto Mareshah,
field: 14014010
14
14
10
and Asa goeth out before him, and they set battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.
field: 14014011
14
14
11
And Asa calleth unto Jehovah his God, and saith, `Jehovah! it is nothing with Thee to help, between the mighty and those who have no power; help us, O Jehovah, our God, for on Thee we have leant, and in Thy name we have come against this multitude; O Jehovah, our God thou `art'; let him not prevail with Thee -- mortal man!
field: 14014012
14
14
12
And Jehovah smiteth the Cushim before Asa, and before Judah, and the Cushim flee,
field: 14014013
14
14
13
and Asa and the people who `are' with him pursue them even to Gerar, and there fall of the Cushim, for they have no preserving, because they have been broken before Jehovah, and before His camp; and they bear away very much spoil,
field: 14014014
14
14
14
and smite all the cities round about Gerar, for a fear of Jehovah hath been upon them, and they spoil all the cities, for abundant spoil hath been in them;
field: 14014015
14
14
15
and also tents of cattle they have smitten, and they capture sheep in abundance, and camels, and turn back to Jerusalem.
field: 14015001
14
15
1
And upon Azariah son of Oded hath been the Spirit of God,
field: 14015002
14
15
2
and he goeth out before Asa, and saith to him, `Hear, me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; Jehovah `is' with you -- in your being with Him, and if ye seek Him, He is found of you, and if ye forsake Him, He forsaketh you;
field: 14015003
14
15
3
and many days `are' to Israel without a true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law,
field: 14015004
14
15
4
and it turneth back in its distress unto Jehovah, God of Israel, and they seek Him, and He is found of them,
field: 14015005
14
15
5
and in those times there is no peace to him who is going out, and to him who is coming in, for many troubles `are' on all the inhabitants of the lands,
field: 14015006
14
15
6
and they have been beaten down, nation by nation, and city by city, for God hath troubled them with every adversity;
field: 14015007
14
15
7
and ye, be ye strong, and let not your hands be feeble, for there is a reward for your work.'
field: 14015008
14
15
8
And at Asa's hearing these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he hath strengthened himself, and doth cause the abominations to pass away out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities that he hath captured from the hill-country of Ephraim, and reneweth the altar of Jehovah that `is' before the porch of Jehovah,
field: 14015009
14
15
9
and gathereth all Judah and Benjamin, and the sojourners with them out of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and out of Simeon -- for they have fallen unto him from Israel in abundance, in their seeing that Jehovah his God `is' with him.
field: 14015010
14
15
10
And they are gathered to Jerusalem in the third month of the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa,
field: 14015011
14
15
11
and sacrifice to Jehovah on that day from the spoil they have brought in -- oxen seven hundred, and sheep seven thousand,
field: 14015012
14
15
12
and they enter into a covenant to seek Jehovah, God of their fathers, with all their heart, and with all their soul,
field: 14015013
14
15
13
and every one who doth not seek for Jehovah, God of Israel, is put to death, from small unto great, from man unto woman.
field: 14015014
14
15
14
And they swear to Jehovah with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets,
field: 14015015
14
15
15
and rejoice do all Judah concerning the oath, for with all their heart they have sworn, and with all their good-will they have sought Him, and He is found of them, and Jehovah giveth rest to them round about.
field: 14015016
14
15
16
And also Maachah, mother of Asa the king -- he hath removed her from `being' mistress, in that she hath made for a shrine a horrible thing, and Asa cutteth down her horrible thing, and beateth `it' small, and burneth `it' by the brook Kidron:
field: 14015017
14
15
17
yet the high places have not turned aside from Israel; only, the heart of Asa hath been perfect all his days.
field: 14015018
14
15
18
And he bringeth in the sanctified things of his father, and his own sanctified things, to the house of God, silver, and gold, and vessels.
field: 14015019
14
15
19
And war hath not been till the thirty and fifth year of the reign of Asa.
field: 14016001
14
16
1
In the thirty and sixth year of the reign of Asa, come up hath Baasha king of Israel, against Judah, and buildeth Ramah, so as not to permit any going out and coming in to Asa king of Judah.
field: 14016002
14
16
2
And Asa bringeth out silver and gold from the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and of the house of the king, and sendeth unto Ben-Hadad king of Aram, who is dwelling in Damascus, saying,
field: 14016003
14
16
3
`A covenant `is' between me and thee, and between my father and thy father, lo, I have sent to thee silver and gold; go, break thy covenant with Baasha king of Israel, and he doth go up from off me.'
field: 14016004
14
16
4
And Ben-Hadad hearkeneth unto king Asa, and sendeth the heads of the forces that he hath unto cities of Israel, and they smite Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-Maim, and all the stores, cities of Naphtali.
field: 14016005
14
16
5
And it cometh to pass, at Baasha's hearing, that he ceaseth from building Ramah, and letteth his work rest;
field: 14016006
14
16
6
and Asa the king hath taken all Judah, and they bear away the stones of Ramah, and its wood, that Baasha hath built, and he buildeth with them Geba and Mizpah.
field: 14016007
14
16
7
And at that time hath Hanani the seer come in unto Asa king of Judah, and saith unto him, `Because of thy leaning on the king of Aram, and thou hast not leaned on Jehovah thy God, therefore hath the force of the king of Aram escaped from thy hand.
field: 14016008
14
16
8
Did not the Cushim and the Lubim become a very great force for multitude, for chariot, and for horsemen? and in thy leaning on Jehovah He gave them into thy hand,
field: 14016009
14
16
9
for Jehovah -- His eyes go to and fro in all the earth, to show Himself strong `for' a people whose heart `is' perfect towards Him; thou hast been foolish concerning this, because -- henceforth there are with thee wars.'
field: 14016010
14
16
10
And Asa is angry at the seer, and giveth him to the house of torture, for `he is' in a rage with him for this; and Asa oppresseth `some' of the people at that time.
field: 14016011
14
16
11
And lo, the matters of Asa, the first and the last, lo, they are written on the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
field: 14016012
14
16
12
And Asa is diseased -- in the thirty and ninth year of his reign -- in his feet, till his disease is excessive, and also in his disease he hath not sought Jehovah, but among physicians.
field: 14016013
14
16
13
And Asa lieth with his fathers, and dieth in the forty and first year of his reign,
field: 14016014
14
16
14
and they bury him in `one of' his graves, that he had prepared for himself in the city of David, and they cause him to lie on a bed that `one' hath filled `with' spices, and divers kinds of mixtures, with perfumed work; and they burn for him a burning -- very great.
field: 14017001
14
17
1
And Jehoshaphat his son reigneth in his stead, and he strengtheneth himself against Israel,
field: 14017002
14
17
2
and putteth a force in all the fenced cities of Judah, and putteth garrisons in the land of Judah, and in the cities of Ephraim that Asa his father had captured.
field: 14017003
14
17
3
And Jehovah is with Jehoshaphat, for he hath walked in the first ways of David his father, and hath not sought to Baalim,
field: 14017004
14
17
4
for to the God of his father he hath sought, and in His commands he hath walked, and not according to the work of Israel.
field: 14017005
14
17
5
And Jehovah doth establish the kingdom in his hand, and all Judah give a present to Jehoshaphat, and he hath riches and honour in abundance,
field: 14017006
14
17
6
and his heart is high in the ways of Jehovah, and again he hath turned aside the high places and the shrines out of Judah.
field: 14017007
14
17
7
And in the third year of his reign he hath sent for his heads, for Ben-Hail, and for Obadiah, and for Zechariah, and for Nethaneel, and for Michaiah, to teach in cities of Judah,
field: 14017008
14
17
8
and with them the Levites, Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehonathan, and Adonijah, and Tobijath, and Tob-Adonijah, the Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram, the priests.
field: 14017009
14
17
9
And they teach in Judah, and with them `is' the Book of the Law of Jehovah, and they go round about into all cities of Judah, and teach among the people.
field: 14017010
14
17
10
And here is a fear of Jehovah on all kingdoms of the lands that `are' round about Judah, and they have not fought with Jehoshaphat;
field: 14017011
14
17
11
and of the Philistines they are bringing in to Jehoshaphat a present, and tribute silver; also, the Arabians are bringing to him a flock, rams seven thousand an seven hundred, and he-goats seven thousand and seven hundred.
field: 14017012
14
17
12
And Jehoshaphat is going on and becoming very great, and he buildeth in Judah palaces and cities of store,
field: 14017013
14
17
13
and he hath much work in cities of Judah; and men of war, mighty of valour, `are' in Jerusalem.
field: 14017014
14
17
14
And these `are' their numbers, for the house of their fathers: Of Judah, heads of thousands, Adnah the head, and with him mighty ones of valour, three hundred chiefs.
field: 14017015
14
17
15
And at his hand `is' Jehohanan the head, and with him two hundred and eighty chiefs.
field: 14017016
14
17
16
And at his hand `is' Amasiah son of Zichri, who is willingly offering himself to Jehovah, and with him two hundred chiefs, mighty of valour.
field: 14017017
14
17
17
And of Benjamin: mighty of valour, Eliada, and with him, armed with bow and shield, two hundred chiefs.
field: 14017018
14
17
18
And at his hand `is' Jehozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty chiefs, armed ones of the host.
field: 14017019
14
17
19
These `are' those serving the king, apart from those whom the king put in the cities of fortress, in all Judah.
field: 14018001
14
18
1
And Jehoshaphat hath riches and honour in abundance, and joineth affinity to Ahab,
field: 14018002
14
18
2
and goeth down at the end of `certain' years unto Ahab to Samaria, and Ahab sacrificeth for him sheep and oxen in abundance, and for the people who `are' with him, and persuadeth him to go up unto Ramoth-Gilead.
field: 14018003
14
18
3
And Ahab king of Israel saith unto Jehoshaphat king of Judah, `Dost thou go with me `to' Ramoth-Gilead?' And he saith to him, `As I -- so thou, and as thy people -- my people, even with thee in battle.'
field: 14018004
14
18
4
And Jehoshaphat saith unto the king of Israel, `Seek, I pray thee, this day, the word of Jehovah.'
field: 14018005
14
18
5
And the king of Israel gathereth the prophets, four hundred men, and saith unto them, `Do we go unto Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or do I forbear?' And they say, `Go up, and God doth give `it' into the hand of the king.'
field: 14018006
14
18
6
And Jehoshaphat saith, `Is there not here a prophet of Jehovah still, and we seek from him?'
field: 14018007
14
18
7
And the king of Israel saith unto Jehoshaphat, `Still -- one man to seek Jehovah from him, and I -- I have hated him, for he is not prophesying concerning me of good, but all his days of evil, he `is' Micaiah son of Imlah;' and Jehoshaphat saith, `Let not the king say so.'
field: 14018008
14
18
8
And the king of Israel calleth unto a certain officer, and saith, `Hasten Micaiah son of Imlah.'
field: 14018009
14
18
9
And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah are sitting, each on his throne, clothed with garments, and they are sitting in a threshing-floor at the opening of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets are prophesying before them.
field: 14018010
14
18
10
And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah maketh for himself horns of iron, and saith, `Thus said Jehovah,
field: 14018011
14
18
11
With these thou dost push Aram till thou hast consumed them.' And all the prophets are prophesying so, saying, `Go up `to' Ramath-Gilead and prosper, and Jehovah hath given `it' into the hand of the king.'
field: 14018012
14
18
12
And the messenger who hath gone to call for Micaiah hath spoken unto him, saying, `Lo, the words of the prophets -- one mouth -- `are' good towards the king, and let, I pray thee, thy word be like one of theirs: and thou hast spoken good.'
field: 14018013
14
18
13
And Micaiah saith `Jehovah liveth, surely that which my God saith, it I speak.'
field: 14018014
14
18
14
And he cometh in unto the king, and the king saith unto him, `Micaiah, do we go unto Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or do I forbear?' And he saith, `Go ye up, and prosper, and they are given into your hand.'
field: 14018015
14
18
15
And the king saith unto him, `How many times am I adjuring thee, that thou speak unto me only truth in the name of Jehovah?'
field: 14018016
14
18
16
And he saith, `I have seen all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd, and Jehovah saith, There are no masters to these, they turn back each to his house in peace.'
field: 14018017
14
18
17
And the king of Israel saith unto Jehoshaphat, `Did I not say unto thee, He doth not prophesy concerning me good, but rather of evil?'
field: 14018018
14
18
18
And he saith, `Therefore, hear ye a word of Jehovah: I have seen Jehovah sitting on His throne, and all the host of the heavens standing on His right and His left;
field: 14018019
14
18
19
and Jehovah saith, Who doth entice Ahab king of Israel, and he doth go up and fall in Ramoth-Gilead? And this speaker saith thus, and that speaker thus.
field: 14018020
14
18
20
And go out doth the spirit, and stand before Jehovah, and saith, I do entice him; and Jehovah saith unto him, With what?
field: 14018021
14
18
21
and he saith, I go out, and have become a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all his prophets. And He saith, Thou dost entice, and also, thou art able; go out and do so.
field: 14018022
14
18
22
And, now, lo, Jehovah hath put a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of these thy prophets, and Jehovah hath spoken concerning thee -- evil.'
field: 14018023
14
18
23
And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah cometh nigh, and smiteth Micaiah on the cheek, and saith, `Where `is' this -- the way the Spirit of Jehovah passed over from me to speak with thee?'
field: 14018024
14
18
24
And Micaiah saith, `Lo, thou dost see in that day, that thou dost enter into the innermost chamber to be hidden.'
field: 14018025
14
18
25
And the king of Israel saith, `Take ye Micaiah, and turn him back unto Amon head of the city, and unto Joash son of the king,
field: 14018026
14
18
26
and ye have said, Thus said the king, Put ye this `one' in the house of restraint, and cause him to eat bread of oppression, and water of oppression, till my return in peace.'
field: 14018027
14
18
27
And Micaiah saith, `If thou dost certainly return in peace, Jehovah hath not spoken by me;' and he saith, `Hear ye, O peoples, all of them!'
field: 14018028
14
18
28
And the king of Israel goeth up, and Jehoshaphat king of Judah, unto Ramoth-Gilead;
field: 14018029
14
18
29
and the king of Israel saith unto Jehoshaphat to disguise himself, and to go into battle, `And thou, put on thy garments.' And the king of Israel disguiseth himself, and they go into battle.
field: 14018030
14
18
30
And the king of Aram hath commanded the heads of the charioteers whom he hath, saying, `Ye do not fight with small or with great, except with the king of Israel by himself.'
field: 14018031
14
18
31
And it cometh to pass at the heads of the charioteers seeing Jehoshaphat, that they have said, `The king of Israel he is,' and they turn round against him to fight, and Jehoshaphat crieth out, and Jehovah hath helped him, and God enticeth them from him,
field: 14018032
14
18
32
yea, it cometh to pass, at the heads of the charioteers seeing that it hath not been the king of Israel -- they turn back from after him.
field: 14018033
14
18
33
And a man hath drawn with a bow, in his simplicity, and smiteth the king of Israel between the joinings and the coat of mail, and he saith to the charioteer, `Turn thy hand, and thou hast brought me out of the camp, for I have become sick.'
field: 14018034
14
18

And the battle increaseth on that day, and the king of Israel hath been stayed up in the chariot over-against Aram till the evening, and he dieth at the time of the going in of the sun.

And Jehoshaphat king of Judah turneth back unto his house in peace to Jerusalem,
field: 14019002
14
19
2
and go out unto his presence doth Jehu son of Hanani, the seer, and saith unto king Jehoshaphat, `To give help to the wicked, and to those hating Jehovah, dost thou love? and for this against thee `is' wrath from before Jehovah,
field: 14019003
14
19
3
but good things have been found with thee, for thou hast put away the shrines out of the land, and hast prepared thy heart to seek God.'
field: 14019004
14
19
4
And Jehoshaphat dwelleth in Jerusalem, and he turneth back and goeth out among the people from Beer-Sheba unto the hill-country of Ephraim, and bringeth them back unto Jehovah, God of their fathers.
field: 14019005
14
19
5
And he establisheth judges in the land, in all the fenced cities of Judah, for every city,
field: 14019006
14
19
6
and saith unto the judges, `See what ye are doing -- for not for man do ye judge, but for Jehovah, who `is' with you in the matter of judgment;
field: 14019007
14
19
7
and now, let fear of Jehovah be upon you, observe and do, for there is not with Jehovah our God perverseness, and acceptance of faces, and taking of a bribe.'
field: 14019008
14
19
8
And also in Jerusalem hath Jehoshaphat appointed of the Levites, and of the priests, and of the heads of the fathers of Israel, for the judgment of Jehovah, and for strife; and they turn back to Jerusalem,
field: 14019009
14
19
9
and he layeth a charge upon them, saying, `Thus do ye do in the fear of Jehovah, in faithfulness, and with a perfect heart,
field: 14019010
14
19
10
and any strife that cometh in unto you of your brethren who are dwelling in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and command, statutes, and judgments, then ye have warned them and they become not guilty before Jehovah, and wrath hath not been on you and on your brethren; thus do ye do, and ye are not guilty.
field: 14019011
14
19
11
`And, lo, Amariah the head priest `is' over you for every matter of Jehovah, and Zebadiah son of Ishmael, the leader of the house of Judah, `is' for every matter of the king, and officers the Levites `are' before you; be strong and do, and Jehovah is with the good.'
field: 14020001
14
20
1
And it cometh to pass after this, the sons of Moab have come in, and the sons of Ammon, and with them of the peoples, against Jehoshaphat to battle.
field: 14020002
14
20
2
And they come in and declare to Jehoshaphat, saying, `Come against thee hath a great multitude from beyond the sea, from Aram, and lo, they `are' in Hazezon-Tamar -- it `is' En-Gedi.'
field: 14020003
14
20
3
And Jehoshaphat feareth, and setteth his face to seek to Jehovah, and proclaimeth a fast over all Judah;
field: 14020004
14
20
4
and Judah is gathered to inquire of Jehovah; also, from all the cities of Judah they have come in to seek Jehovah.
field: 14020005
14
20
5
And Jehoshaphat standeth in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of Jehovah, at the front of the new court,
field: 14020006
14
20
6
and saith, `O Jehovah, God of our fathers, art not Thou -- God in the heavens? yea, Thou art ruling over all kingdoms of the nations, and in Thy hand `is' power and might, and there is none with Thee to station himself.
field: 14020007
14
20
7
`Art not Thou our God? Thou hast dispossessed the inhabitants of this land from before Thy people Israel, and dost give it to the seed of Abraham Thy friend to the age,
field: 14020008
14
20
8
and they dwell in it, and build to Thee in it a sanctuary for Thy name, saying,
field: 14020009
14
20
9
If evil doth come upon us -- sword, judgment, and pestilence, and famine -- we stand before this house, and before Thee, for Thy name `is' in this house, and cry unto Thee out of our distress, and Thou dost hear and save.
field: 14020010
14
20
10
`And now, lo, sons of Ammon, and Moab, and mount Seir, whom Thou didst not grant to Israel to go in against in their coming out of the land of Egypt, for they turned aside from off them and destroyed them not,
field: 14020011
14
20
11
and lo, they are recompensing to us -- to come in to drive us out of Thy possession, that Thou hast caused us to possess.
field: 14020012
14
20
12
`O our God, dost Thou not execute judgment upon them? for there is no power in us before this great multitude that hath come against us, and we know not what we do, but on Thee `are' our eyes.'
field: 14020013
14
20
13
And all Judah are standing before Jehovah, also their infants, their wives, and their sons.
field: 14020014
14
20
14
And upon Jahaziel, son of Zechariah, son of Benaiah, son of Jeiel, son of Mattaniah, the Levite, of the sons of Asaph, hath the Spirit of Jehovah been, in the midst of the assembly,
field: 14020015
14
20
15
and he saith, `Attend, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and O king Jehoshaphat, Thus said Jehovah to you, Ye fear not, nor are afraid of the face of this great multitude, for not for you `is' the battle, but for God.
field: 14020016
14
20
16
To-morrow, go ye down against them, lo, they are coming up by the ascent of Ziz, and ye have found them in the end of the valley, the front of the wilderness of Jeruel.
field: 14020017
14
20
17
Not for you to fight in this; station yourselves, stand, and see the salvation of Jehovah with you, O Judah and Jerusalem -- be not afraid nor fear ye -- to-morrow go out before them, and Jehovah `is' with you.'
field: 14020018
14
20
18
And Jehoshaphat boweth -- face to the earth -- and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem have fallen before Jehovah, to bow themselves to Jehovah.
field: 14020019
14
20
19
And the Levites, of the sons of the Kohathites, and of the sons of the Korhites, rise to give praise to Jehovah, God of Israel, with a loud voice on high.
field: 14020020
14
20
20
And they rise early in the morning, and go out to the wilderness of Tekoa, and in their going out Jehoshaphat hath stood and saith, `Hear me, O Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem, remain stedfast in Jehovah your God, and be stedfast; remain stedfast in His prophets, and prosper.'
field: 14020021
14
20
21
And he taketh counsel with the people, and appointeth singers to Jehovah, and those giving praise to the honour of holiness, in the going out before the armed `men', and saying, `Give ye thanks to Jehovah, for to the age `is' His kindness.'
field: 14020022
14
20
22
And at the time they have begun with singing and praise, Jehovah hath put ambushments against the sons of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, who are coming in to Judah, and they are smitten,
field: 14020023
14
20
23
and the sons of Ammon stand up, and Moab, against the inhabitants of mount Seir, to devote and to destroy, and at their finishing with the inhabitants of Seir, they helped, a man against his neighbour, to destroy.
field: 14020024
14
20
24
And Judah hath come in unto the watch-tower, to the wilderness, and they look unto the multitude, and lo, they `are' carcases fallen to the earth, and there is none escaped,
field: 14020025
14
20
25
and Jehoshaphat cometh in, and his people, to seize their spoil, and they find among them, in abundance, both goods and carcases, and desirable vessels, and they take spoil to themselves without prohibition, and they are three days seizing the spoil, for it `is' abundant.
field: 14020026
14
20
26
And on the fourth day they have been assembled at the valley of Blessing, for there they blessed Jehovah: therefore they have called the name of that place, `Valley of Blessing,' unto this day.
field: 14020027
14
20
27
And they turn back, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat at their head, to go back unto Jerusalem with joy, for Jehovah hath made them rejoice over their enemies.
field: 14020028
14
20
28
And they come in to Jerusalem with psalteries, and with harps, and with trumpets, unto the house of Jehovah.
field: 14020029
14
20
29
And there is a fear of God on all kingdoms of the lands in their hearing that Jehovah hath fought with the enemies of Israel,
field: 14020030
14
20
30
and the kingdom of Jehoshaphat is quiet, and his God giveth rest to him round about.
field: 14020031
14
20
31
And Jehoshaphat reigneth over Judah, a son of thirty and five years in his reigning, and twenty and five years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother `is' Azubah daughter of Shilhi.
field: 14020032
14
20
32
And he walketh in the way of his father Asa, and hath not turned aside from it, to do that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah.
field: 14020033
14
20
33
Only, the high places have not turned aside, and still the people have not prepared their heart for the God of their fathers.
field: 14020034
14
20
34
And the rest of the matters of Jehoshaphat, the first and the last, lo, they are written among the matters of Jehu son of Hanani, who hath been mentioned on the book of the kings of Israel.
field: 14020035
14
20
35
And after this hath Jehoshaphat king of Judah joined himself with Ahaziah king of Israel, (he did wickedly in `so' doing),
field: 14020036
14
20
36
and he joineth him with himself to make ships to go to Tarshish, and they make ships in Ezion-Geber,
field: 14020037
14
20
37
and prophesy doth Eliezer son of Dodavah, of Mareshah, against Jehoshaphat, saying, `For thy joining thyself with Ahaziah, Jehovah hath broken up thy works;' and the ships are broken, and have not retained `power' to go unto Tarshish.
field: 14021001
14

And Jehoshaphat lieth with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of David, and Jehoram his son reigneth in his stead.
field: 14021002
14
21
2
And he hath brethren, sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah; all these `are' sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel,
field: 14021003
14
21
3
and their father giveth to them many gifts of silver and of gold, and of precious things, with fenced cities in Judah, and the kingdom he hath given to Jehoram, for He `is' the first-born.
field: 14021004
14
21
4
And Jehoram riseth up over the kingdom of his father, and strengtheneth himself, and slayeth all his brethren with the sword, and also -- of the heads of Israel.
field: 14021005
14
21
5
A son of thirty and two years `is' Jehoram in his reigning, and eight years he hath reigned in Jerusalem,
field: 14021006
14
21
6
and he walketh in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab, for a daughter of Ahab hath been to him for a wife, and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah,
field: 14021007
14
21
7
and Jehovah hath not been willing to destroy the house of David, for the sake of the covenant that He made with David, and as He had said to give to him a lamp, and to his sons -- all the days.
field: 14021008
14
21
8
In his days hath Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and cause a king to reign over them;
field: 14021009
14
21
9
and Jehoram passeth over with his heads, and all the chariots with him, and it cometh to pass, he hath risen by night and smiteth the Edomites who are coming round against him, and the princes of the chariots,
field: 14021010
14
21
10
and Edom revolteth from under the hand of Judah unto this day; then doth Libnah revolt at that time from under his hand, because he hath forsaken Jehovah, God of his fathers,
field: 14021011
14
21
11
also, he hath made high places in the mountains of Judah, and causeth the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit whoredom, and compelleth Judah.
field: 14021012
14
21
12
And there cometh in unto him a writing from Elijah the prophet, saying, `Thus said Jehovah, God of David thy father, Because that thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, and in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
field: 14021013
14
21
13
and thou dost walk in the way of the kings of Israel, and dost cause Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit whoredom like the whoredoms of the house of Ahab, and also thy brethren, the house of thy father, who are better than thyself, thou hast slain;
field: 14021014
14
21
14
lo, Jehovah is smiting -- a great smiting -- among thy people, and among thy sons, and among thy wives, and among all thy goods --
field: 14021015
14
21
15
and thou, with many sicknesses, with disease of thy bowels, till thy bowels come out, by the sickness, day by day.'
field: 14021016
14
21
16
And Jehovah waketh up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, who `are' beside the Cushim,
field: 14021017
14
21
17
and they come up into Judah, and rend it, and take captive all the substance that is found at the house of the king, and also his sons, and his wives, and there hath not been left to him a son except Jehoahaz the youngest of his sons.
field: 14021018
14
21
18
And after all this hath Jehovah plagued him in his bowels by a disease for which there is no healing,
field: 14021019
14
21
19
and it cometh to pass, from days to days, and at the time of the going out of the end of two years, his bowels have gone out with his sickness, and he dieth of sore diseases, and his people have not made for him a burning like the burning of his fathers.
field: 14021020
14
21
20
A son of thirty and two `years' was he in his reigning, and eight years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and he goeth without desire, and they bury him in the city of David, and not in the graves of the kings.
field: 14022001
14
22
1
And the inhabitants of Jerusalem cause Ahaziah his youngest son to reign in his stead, (for all the elder had the troop slain that came in with the Arabians to the camp,) and Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah reigneth.
field: 14022002
14
22
2
A son of twenty and two years `is' Ahaziah in his reigning, and one year he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother `is' Athaliah daughter of Omri;
field: 14022003
14
22
3
he also hath walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, for his mother hath been his counsellor to do wickedly.
field: 14022004
14
22
4
And he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, like the house of Ahab, for they have been his counsellors, after the death of his father, for destruction to him.
field: 14022005
14
22
5
Also, in their counsel he hath walked, and goeth with Jehoram son of Ahab king of Israel to battle against Hazael king of Aram, in Ramoth-Gilead, and they of Ramah smite Joram;
field: 14022006
14
22
6
and he turneth back to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds with which they had smitten him in Ramah, in his fighting with Hazael king of Aram. And Azariah son of Jehoram king of Judah hath gone down to see Jehoram son of Ahab, in Jezreel, for he `is' sick;
field: 14022007
14
22
7
and from God hath been the destruction of Ahaziah, to come unto Joram: and in his coming he hath gone out with Jehoram unto Jehu son of Nimshi, whom Jehovah anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.
field: 14022008
14
22
8
And it cometh to pass, in Jehu's executing judgment with the house of Ahab, that he findeth the heads of Judah and sons of the brethren of Ahaziah, ministers of Ahaziah, and slayeth them.
field: 14022009
14
22
9
And he seeketh Ahaziah, and they capture him, (and he is hiding himself in Samaria), and bring him in unto Jehu, and put him to death, and bury him, for they said, `He `is' son of Jehoshaphat, who sought Jehovah with all his heart;' and there is none to the house of Ahaziah to retain power for the kingdom.
field: 14022010
14
22
10
And Athaliah mother of Ahaziah hath seen that her son is dead, and she riseth and destroyeth the whole seed of the kingdom of the house of Judah.
field: 14022011
14
22
11
And Jehoshabeath daughter of the king taketh Joash son of Ahaziah, and stealeth him from the midst of the sons of the king who are put to death, and putteth him and his nurse into the inner part of the bed-chambers, and Jehoshabeath daughter of king Jehoram, wife of Jehoiada the priest, because she hath been sister of Ahaziah, hideth him from the face of Athaliah, and she hath not put him to death.
field: 14022012
14
22
12
And he is with them in the house of God hiding himself six years, and Athaliah is reigning over the land.
field: 14023001
14
23
1
And in the seventh year hath Jehoiada strengthened himself, and taketh the heads of the hundreds, even Azariah son of Jeroham, and Ishmael son of Jehohanan, and Azariah son of Obed, and Maaseiah son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat son of Zichri, with him into covenant.
field: 14023002
14
23
2
And they go round about in Judah, and gather the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and heads of the fathers of Israel, and come in unto Jerusalem,
field: 14023003
14
23
3
and all the assembly make a covenant in the house of God with the king, and he saith to them, `Lo, the son of the king doth reign, as Jehovah spake concerning the sons of David.
field: 14023004
14
23
4
`This `is' the thing that ye do: The third of you, going in on the sabbath, of the priests, and of the Levites, `are' for gatekeepers of the thresholds,

14
23
5
and the third `are' at the house of the king, and the third at the gate of the foundation, and all the people `are' in the courts of the house of Jehovah.
field: 14023006
14
23
6
`And none doth enter the house of Jehovah except the priests, and those ministering of the Levites (they go in for they `are' holy), and all the people keep the watch of Jehovah:
field: 14023007
14
23
7
and the Levites have compassed the king round about, each with his weapon in his hand, and he who hath gone in unto the house is put to death; and be ye with the king in his coming in and in his going out.'
field: 14023008
14
23
8
And the Levites and all Judah do according to all that Jehoiada the priest hath commanded, and take each his men going in on the sabbath, with those going out on the sabbath, for Jehoiada the priest hath not let away the courses.
field: 14023009
14
23
9
And Jehoiada the priest giveth to the heads of the hundreds the spears, and the shields, and the bucklers that `are' king David's, that `are' in the house of God;
field: 14023010
14
23
10
and he stationeth the whole of the people, and each his dart in his hand, from the right shoulder of the house unto the left shoulder of the house, at the altar, and at the house, by the king, round about.
field: 14023011
14
23
11
And they bring out the son of the king, and put upon him the crown, and the testimony, and cause him to reign; and Jehoiada and his sons anoint him, and say, `Let the king live!'
field: 14023012
14
23
12
And Athaliah heareth the voice of the people who are running, and who are praising the king, and she cometh in unto the people in the house of Jehovah,
field: 14023013
14
23
13
and seeth, and lo, the king is standing by his pillar in the entrance, and the heads, and the trumpets `are' by the king, and all the people of the land rejoicing and shouting with trumpets, and the singers with instruments of song, and the teachers, to praise, and Athaliah rendeth her garments, and saith, `Conspiracy, conspiracy.'
field: 14023014
14
23
14
And Jehoiada the priest bringeth out the heads of the hundreds, inspectors of the force, and saith unto them, `Take her out from within the rows, and he who hath gone after her is put to death by the sword;' for the priest said, `Put her not to death `in' the house of Jehovah.'
field: 14023015
14
23
15
And they make for her sides, and she cometh in unto the entrance of the gate of the horses at the house of the king, and they put her to death there.
field: 14023016
14
23
16
And Jehoiada maketh a covenant between him, and between all the people, and between the king, to be for a people to Jehovah;
field: 14023017
14
23
17
and all the people enter the house of Baal, and break it down, yea, his altars and his images they have broken, and Mattan priest of Baal they have slain before the altars.
field: 14023018
14
23
18
And Jehoiada putteth the offices of the house of Jehovah into the hand of the priests the Levites whom David had apportioned over the house of Jehovah, to cause to ascend the burnt-offerings of Jehovah, as written in the law of Moses, with joy, and with singing, by the hands of David;
field: 14023019
14
23
19
and he stationeth the gatekeepers over the gates of the house of Jehovah, and the unclean in anything doth not go in.
field: 14023020
14
23
20
And he taketh the heads of the hundreds, and the honourable ones, and the rulers among the people, and all the people of the land, and bringeth down the king from the house of Jehovah, and they come in through the high gate to the house of the king, and cause the king to sit on the throne of the kingdom.
field: 14023021
14
23
21
And all the people of the land rejoice, and the city hath been quiet, and Athaliah they have put to death by the sword.

A son of seven years `is' Joash in his reigning, and forty years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother `is' Zibiah of Beer-Sheba.
field: 14024002
14
24
2
And Joash doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
field: 14024003
14
24
3
And Jehoiada taketh for him two wives, and he begetteth sons and daughters.
field: 14024004
14
24
4
And it cometh to pass after this, it hath been with the heart of Joash to renew the house of Jehovah,
field: 14024005
14
24
5
and he gathereth the priests and the Levites, and saith to them, `Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather from all Israel money to strengthen the house of your God sufficiently year by year, and ye, ye do haste to the matter;' and the Levites have not hasted.
field: 14024006
14
24
6
And the king calleth for Jehoiada the head, and saith to him, `Wherefore hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the tribute of Moses, servant of Jehovah, and of the assembly of Israel, for the tent of the testimony?
field: 14024007
14
24
7
for sons of Athaliah, the wicked one, have broken up the house of God, and also, all the holy things of the house of Jehovah they have prepared for Baalim.'
field: 14024008
14
24
8
And the king speaketh, and they make one chest, and put it at the gate of the house of Jehovah without,

9
and give an intimation in Judah and in Jerusalem to bring in to Jehovah the tribute of Moses, servant of God, `laid' on Israel in the wilderness.

And all the heads, and all the people rejoice, and they bring in, and cast into the chest, unto completion.

And it cometh to pass, at the time one bringeth in the chest for the inspection of the king by the hand of the Levites, and at their seeing that the money `is' abundant, that a scribe of the king hath come in, and an officer of the head-priest, and they empty the chest, and take it up and turn it back unto its place; thus they have done day by day, and gather money in abundance.

And the king and Jehoiada give it unto the doers of the work of the service of the house of Jehovah, and they are hiring hewers and artificers to renew the house of Jehovah, and also -- to artificers in iron and brass to strengthen the house of Jehovah.
field: 14024013
14
24
13
And those doing the business work, and there goeth up lengthening to the work by their hand, and they establish the house of God, by its proper measure, and strengthen it.
field: 14024014
14
24
14
And at their completing `it', they have brought in before the king and Jehoiada the rest of the money, and they make it vessels for the house of Jehovah, vessels of serving, and of offering up, and spoons, even vessels of gold and silver; and they are causing burnt-offerings to ascend in the house of Jehovah continually, all the days of Jehoiada.
field: 14024015
14
24
15
And Jehoiada is aged and satisfied with days, and dieth -- a son of a hundred and thirty years in his death,
field: 14024016
14
24
16
and they bury him in the city of David, with the kings, for he hath done good in Israel, and with God, and his house.
field: 14024017
14
24
17
And after the death of Jehoiada come in have heads of Judah, and bow themselves to the king; then hath the king hearkened unto them,
field: 14024018
14
24
18
and they forsake the house of Jehovah, God of their fathers, and serve the shrines and the idols, and there is wrath upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their guilt.
field: 14024019
14
24
19
And He sendeth among them prophets, to bring them back unto Jehovah, and they testify against them, and they have not given ear;
field: 14024020
14
24
20
and the Spirit of God hath clothed Zechariah son of Jehoiada the priest, and he standeth over-against the people, and saith to them, `Thus said God, Why are ye transgressing the commands of Jehovah, and prosper not? because ye have forsaken Jehovah -- He doth forsake you.'
field: 14024021
14
24
21
And they conspire against him, and stone him with stones by the command of the king, in the court of the house of Jehovah,
field: 14024022
14
24
22
and Joash the king hath not remembered the kindness that Jehoiada his father did with him, and slayeth his son, and in his death he said, `Jehovah doth see, and require.'
field: 14024023
14
24
23
And it cometh to pass, at the turn of the year, come up hath the force of Aram against him, and they come in unto Judah and Jerusalem, and destroy all the heads of the people from the people, and all their spoil they have sent to the king of Damascus,
field: 14024024
14
24
24
for with few men have the force of Aram come in, and Jehovah hath given into their hand a mighty force for multitude, because they have forsaken Jehovah, God of their fathers; and with Joash they have executed judgments.
field: 14024025
14
24
25
And in their going from him -- for they left him with many diseases -- his servants themselves have conspired against him, for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and slay him on his bed, and he dieth; and they bury him in the city of David, and have not buried him in the graves of the kings.
field: 14024026
14
24
26
And these `are' those conspiring against him, Zabad son of Shimeath the Ammonitess, and Jehozabad son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
field: 14024027
14
24
27
As to his sons, and the greatness of the burden upon him, and the foundation of the house of God, lo, they are written on the `Inquiry' of the book of the Kings; and reign doth Amaziah his son in his stead.
field: 14025001
14
25
1
A son of twenty and five years hath Amaziah reigned, and twenty and nine years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother `is' Jehoaddan of Jerusalem,
field: 14025002
14
25
2
and he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah -- only, not with a perfect heart.
field: 14025003
14
25
3
And it cometh to pass, when the kingdom hath been strong upon him, that he slayeth his servants, those smiting the king his father,
field: 14025004
14
25
4
and their sons he hath not put to death, but `did' as is written in the law, in the book of Moses, whom Jehovah commanded, saying, `Fathers do not die for sons, and sons die not for fathers, but each for his own sin they die.'
field: 14025005
14
25
5
And Amaziah gathereth Judah, and appointeth them, according to the house of the fathers, for heads of the thousands, and for heads of the hundreds, for all Judah and Benjamin; and he inspecteth them from a son of twenty years and upward, and findeth them three hundred thousand chosen ones, going forth to the host, holding spear and target.
field: 14025006
14
25
6
And he hireth out of Israel a hundred thousand mighty ones of valour, with a hundred talents of silver;
field: 14025007
14
25
7
and a man of God hath come in unto him, saying, `O king, the host of Israel doth not go with thee; for Jehovah is not with Israel -- all the sons of Ephraim;
field: 14025008
14
25
8
but if thou art going -- do `it', be strong for battle, God doth cause thee to stumble before an enemy, for there is power in God to help, and to cause to stumble.'
field: 14025009
14
25
9
And Amaziah saith to the man of God, `And what -- to do for the hundred talents that I have given to the troop of Israel?' And the man of God saith, `Jehovah hath more to give to thee than this.'
field: 14025010
14
25
10
And Amaziah separateth them -- for the troop that hath come in unto him from Ephraim to go to their own place, and their anger doth burn mightily against Judah, and they turn back to their place in the heat of anger.
field: 14025011
14
25
11
And Amaziah hath strengthened himself, and leadeth his people, and goeth to the Valley of Salt, and smiteth the sons of Seir -- ten thousand.
field: 14025012
14
25
12
And ten thousand alive have the sons of Judah taken captive, and they bring them to the top of the rock, and cast them from the top of the rock, and all of them have been broken.
field: 14025013
14
25
13
And the sons of the troop that Amaziah hath sent back from going with him to battle -- they rush against cities of Judah, from Samaria even unto Beth-Horon, and smite of them three thousand, and seize much prey.
field: 14025014
14
25
14
And it cometh to pass, after the coming in of Amaziah from smiting the Edomites, that he bringeth in the gods of the sons of Seir, and establisheth them to him for gods, and before them doth bow himself, and to them he maketh perfume.
field: 14025015
14
25
15
And the anger of Jehovah burneth against Amaziah, and He sendeth unto him a prophet, and he saith unto him, `Why hast thou sought the gods of the people that have not delivered their people out of thy hand?'
field: 14025016
14
25
16
And it cometh to pass, in his speaking unto him, that he saith to him, `For a counsellor to the king have we appointed thee? cease for thee; why do they smite thee?' And the prophet ceaseth, and saith, `I have known that God hath counselled to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened to my counsel.'
field: 14025017
14
25
17
And Amaziah king of Judah taketh counsel, and sendeth unto Joash son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying,
field: 14025018
14
25
18
`Come, we look one another in the face.' And Joash king of Israel sendeth unto Amaziah king of Judah, saying, `The thorn that `is' in Lebanon hath sent unto the cedar that `is' in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son for a wife; and pass by doth a beast of the field that `is' in Lebanon, and treadeth down the thorn.
field: 14025019
14
25
19
Thou hast said, Lo, I have smitten Edom; and thy heart hath lifted thee up to boast; now, abide in thy house, why dost thou stir thyself up in evil, that thou hast fallen, thou, and Judah with thee?'
field: 14025020
14
25
20
And Amaziah hath not hearkened, for from God it `is' in order to give them into hand, because they have sought the gods of Edom;
field: 14025021
14
25
21
and go up doth Joash king of Israel, and they look one another in the face, he and Amaziah king of Judah, in Beth-Shemesh, that `is' Judah's,
field: 14025022
14
25
22
and Judah is smitten before Israel, and they flee -- each to his tents.
field: 14025023
14
25
23
And Amaziah king of Judah, son of Joash, son of Jehoahaz, hath Joash king of Israel caught in Beth-Shemesh, and bringeth him in to Jerusalem, and breaketh down in the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim unto the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits,
field: 14025024
14
25
24
and `taketh' all the gold, and the silver, and all the vessels that are found in the house of God with Obed-Edom, and the treasures of the house of the king, and the sons of the pledges, and turneth back to Samaria.
field: 14025025
14
25
25
And Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, liveth after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, fifteen years;

14
25
26
and the rest of the matters of Amaziah, the first and the last, lo, are they not written on the books of the kings of Judah and Israel?
field: 14025027
14
25
27
And from the time that Amaziah hath turned aside from after Jehovah -- they make a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fleeth to Lachish, and they send after him to Lachish, and put him to death there,
field: 14025028
14
25
28
and lift him up on the horses, and bury him with his fathers in the city of Judah.
field: 14026001
14
26
1
And all the people of Judah take Uzziah (and he `is' a son of sixteen years), and cause him to reign instead of his father Amaziah.
field: 14026002
14
26
2
He hath built Eloth, and restoreth it to Judah after the king's lying with his fathers.

A son of sixteen years `is' Uzziah in his reigning, and fifty and two years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother `is' Jecholiah of Jerusalem.
field: 14026004
14
26
4
And he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that Amaziah his father did,
field: 14026005
14
26
5
and he is as one seeking God in the days of Zechariah who hath understanding in visions of God: and in the days of his seeking Jehovah, God hath caused him to prosper.
field: 14026006
14
26
6
And he goeth forth, and fighteth with the Philistines, and breaketh down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod, and buildeth cities about Ashdod, and among the Philistines.
field: 14026007
14

7
And God helpeth him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians who are dwelling in Gur-Baal and the Mehunim.
field: 14026008
14
26
8
And the Ammonites give a present to Uzziah, and his name goeth unto the entering in of Egypt, for he strengthened himself greatly.
field: 14026009
14
26
9
And Uzziah buildeth towers in Jerusalem, by the gate of the corner, and by the gate of the valley, and by the angle, and strengtheneth them;
field: 14026010
14
26
10
and he buildeth towers in the wilderness, and diggeth many wells, for he had much cattle, both in the low country and in the plain, husbandmen and vine-dressers in the mountains, and in Carmel; for he was a lover of the ground.
field: 14026011
14
26
11
And Uzziah hath a force, making war, going forth to the host, by troops, in the number of their reckoning by the hand of Jeiel the scribe and Masseiah the officer, by the hand of Hananiah `one' of the heads of the king.
field: 14026012
14
26
12
The whole number of heads of the fathers of the mighty ones of valour `is' two thousand and six hundred;
field: 14026013
14
26
13
and by their hand `is' the force of the host, three hundred thousand, and seven thousand, and five hundred warriors, with mighty power to give help to the king against the enemy.
field: 14026014
14
26
14
And Uzziah prepareth for them, for all the host, shields, and spears, and helmets, and coats of mail, and bows, even to stones of the slings.
field: 14026015
14
26
15
And he maketh in Jerusalem inventions -- a device of an inventor -- to be on the towers, and on the corners, to shoot with arrows and with great stones, and his name goeth out unto a distance, for he hath been wonderfully helped till that he hath been strong.
field: 14026016
14
26
16
And at his being strong his heart hath been high unto destruction, and he trespasseth against Jehovah his God, and goeth in unto the temple of Jehovah to make perfume upon the altar of perfume.
field: 14026017
14
26
17
And Azariah the priest goeth in after him, and with him priests of Jehovah eighty, sons of valour,
field: 14026018
14
26
18
and they stand up against Uzziah the king, and say to him, `Not for thee, O Uzziah, to make perfume to Jehovah, but for priests, sons of Aaron, who are sanctified to make perfume; go forth from the sanctuary, for thou hast trespassed, and `it is' not to thee for honour from Jehovah God.'
field: 14026019
14
26
19
And Uzziah is wroth, and in his hand `is' a censer to make perfume, and in his being wroth with the priests -- the leprosy hath risen in his forehead, before the priests, in the house of Jehovah, from beside the altar of perfume.
field: 14026020
14
26
20
And Azariah the head priest looketh unto him, and all the priests, and lo, he `is' leprous in his forehead, and they hasten him thence, and also he himself hath hastened to go out, for Jehovah hath plagued him.
field: 14026021
14
26
21
And Uzziah the king is a leper unto the day of his death, and inhabiteth a separate house -- a leper, for he hath been cut off from the house of Jehovah, and Jotham his son `is' over the house of the king, judging the people of the land.
field: 14026022
14
26
22
And the rest of the matters of Uzziah, the first and the last, hath Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet written;
field: 14026023
14
26
23
and Uzziah lieth with his fathers, and they bury him with his fathers, in the field of the burying-place that the kings have, for they said, `He `is' a leper;' and reign doth Jotham his son in his stead.

And he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that Uzziah his father did; only, he hath not come in unto the temple of Jehovah; and again are the people doing corruptly.

14
27

He hath built the upper gate of the house of Jehovah, and in the wall of Ophel he hath built abundantly;

and cities he hath built in the hill-country of Judah, and in the forests he hath built palaces and towers.

14
27
5
And he hath fought with the king of the sons of Ammon, and prevaileth over them, and the sons of Ammon give to him in that year a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cors of wheat, and of barley ten thousand; this have the sons of Ammon returned to him both in the second year, and in the third.

A son of twenty years `is' Ahaz in his reigning, and sixteen years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and he hath not done that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, as David his father,

and walketh in the ways of the kings of Israel, and also, molten images hath made for Baalim,

and himself hath made perfume in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burneth his sons with fire according to the abominations of the nations that Jehovah dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel,

and sacrificeth and maketh perfume in high places, and on the heights, and under every green tree.

And Jehovah his God giveth him into the hand of the king of Aram, and they smite him, and take captive from him a great captivity, and bring `them' in to Damascus, and also into the hand of the king of Israel he hath been given, and he smiteth him -- a great smiting.

And there hath been there a prophet of Jehovah (Oded `is' his name), and he goeth out before the host that hath come in to Samaria, and saith to them, `Lo, in the fury of Jehovah God of your fathers against Judah, He hath given them into your hand, and ye slay among them in rage -- unto the heavens it hath come;

and now, sons of Judah and Jerusalem ye are saying to subdue for men-servants and for maid-servants to you; but are there not with you causes of guilt before Jehovah your God?
field: 14028011
14

and now, hear me, and send back the captives whom ye have taken captive of your brethren, for the heat of the anger of Jehovah `is' upon you.'

And certain of the heads of the sons of Ephraim (Azariah son of Johanan, Berechiah son of Meshillemoth, and Jehizkiah son of Shallum, and Amasa son of Hadlai), rise up against those coming in from the host,
field: 14028013
14
28

and say to them, `Ye do not bring in the captives hither, for, to guilt against Jehovah on us, ye are saying to add unto our sin and unto our guilt? for abundant `is' the guilt we have, and the fierceness of anger on Israel.'
field: 14028014
14

And the armed men leave the captives and the prey before the heads and all the assembly;

28
15
and the men who have been expressed by name rise and take hold on the captives, and all their naked ones they have clothed from the spoil, yea, they clothe them, and shoe them, and cause them to eat and drink, and anoint them, and lead them on asses, even every feeble one, and bring them in to Jericho, the city of palms, near their brethren, and turn back to Samaria.

At that time hath king Ahaz sent unto the king of Asshur to give help to him;

and again the Edomites have come, and smite in Judah, and take captive a captivity.

And the Philistines have rushed against the cities of the low country, and of the south of Judah, and capture Beth-Shemesh, and Aijalon, and Gederoth, and Shocho and its villages, and Timnah and its villages, and Gimzo and its villages, and dwell there,

And Tilgath-Pilneser king of Asshur cometh in unto him, and doth distress him, and hath not strengthened him,

though Ahaz hath taken a portion `out' of the house of Jehovah, and `out' of the house of the king, and of the princes, and giveth to the king of Asshur, yet it is no help to him.

And in the time of his distress -- he addeth to trespass against Jehovah, (this king Ahaz),

14
28
23
and he sacrificeth to the gods of Damascus -- those smiting him, and saith, `Because the gods of the kings of Aram are helping them, to them I sacrifice, and they help me,' and they have been to him to cause him to stumble, and to all Israel.

And Ahaz gathereth the vessels of the house of God, and cutteth in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and shutteth the doors of the house of Jehovah, and maketh to himself altars in every corner in Jerusalem.
field: 14028025
14
28

And in every city and city of Judah he hath made high places to make perfume to other gods, and provoketh Jehovah, God of his fathers.

and he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that David his father did.

He, in the first year of his reign, in the first month, hath opened the doors of the house of Jehovah, and strengtheneth them,

4
and bringeth in the priests and the Levites, and gathereth them to the broad place to the east.

And he saith to them, `Hear me, O Levites, now, sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of Jehovah, God of your fathers, and bring out the impurity from the sanctuary,

`Also -- they have shut the doors of the porch, and quench the lamps, and perfume they have not made, and burnt-offering have not caused to ascend in the sanctuary to the God of Israel,

And lo, fallen have our fathers by the sword, and our sons, and our daughters, and our wives `are' in captivity for this.

And the Levites rise -- Mahath son of Amasai, and Joel son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathite; and of the sons of Merari: Kish son of Abdi, and Azariah son of Jehalelel; and of the Gershonite: Joah son of Zimmah, and Eden son of Joah;
field: 14029013
14
29
13
and of the sons of Elizaphan: Shimri, and Jeiel; and of the sons of Asaph: Zechariah and Mattaniah;
field: 14029014
14
29
14
and of the sons of Heman: Jehiel and Shimei; and of the sons of Jeduthun: Shemaiah and Uzziel --
field: 14029015
14
29
15
and they gather their brethren, and sanctify themselves, and come in, according to the command of the king in the matters of Jehovah, to cleanse the house of Jehovah,
field: 14029016
14
29
16
and the priests come in to the inner part of the house of Jehovah to cleanse `it', and bring out all the uncleanness that they have found in the temple of Jehovah to the court of the house of Jehovah, and the Levites receive `it', to take `it' out to the brook Kidron without.
field: 14029017
14
29
17
And they begin on the first of the first month to sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month they have come to the porch of Jehovah, and they sanctify the house of Jehovah in eight days, and on the sixteenth day of the first month they have finished.
field: 14029018
14
29
18
And they come in within unto Hezekiah the king, and say, `We have cleansed all the house of Jehovah, and the altar of the burnt-offering, and all its vessels, and the table of the arrangement, and all its vessels,
field: 14029019
14
29
19
and all the vessels that king Ahaz cast away in his reign -- in his trespass -- we have prepared and sanctified, and lo, they `are' before the altar of Jehovah.'
field: 14029020
14
29
20
And Hezekiah the king riseth early, and gathereth the heads of the city, and goeth up to the house of Jehovah;
field: 14029021
14
29
21
and they bring in seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven young he-goats, for a sin-offering for the kingdom, and for the sanctuary, and for Judah; and he saith to sons of Aaron, the priests, to cause `them' to ascend on the altar of Jehovah.
field: 14029022
14
29
22
And they slaughter the oxen, and the priests receive the blood, and sprinkle on the altar; and they slaughter the rams, and sprinkle the blood on the altar; and they slaughter the lambs, and sprinkle the blood on the altar;
field: 14029023
14
29
23
and they bring nigh the he-goats of the sin-offering before the king and the assembly, and they lay their hands upon them;
field: 14029024
14
29
24
and the priests slaughter them, and make a sin-offering with their blood on the altar, to make atonement for all Israel, for `For all Israel,' said the king, ``is' the burnt-offering and the sin-offering.'
field: 14029025
14
29
25
And he appointeth the Levites in the house of Jehovah with cymbals, with psalteries, and with harps, by the command of David, and of Gad, seer of the king, and of Nathan the prophet, for by the hand of Jehovah `is' the command, by the hand of His prophets;
field: 14029026
14
29
26
and the Levites stand with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
field: 14029027
14
29
27
And Hezekiah saith to cause the burnt-offering to ascend on the altar; and at the time the burnt-offering began -- began the song of Jehovah, and the trumpets, even by the hands of the instruments of David king of Israel.
field: 14029028
14
29
28
And all the assembly are doing obeisance, and the singers singing, and the trumpeters blowing; the whole `is' till the completion of the burnt-offering.
field: 14029029
14
29
29
And at the completion of the offering up bowed have the king and all those found with him, and do obeisance.
field: 14029030
14
29
30
And Hezekiah the king saith, and the princes, to the Levites to give praise to Jehovah in the words of David, and of Asaph the seer, and they praise -- unto joy, and they bow, and do obeisance.
field: 14029031
14
29
31
And Hezekiah answereth and saith, `Now ye have filled your hand to Jehovah, come nigh, and bring in sacrifices and thank-offerings to the house of Jehovah;' and the assembly bring in sacrifices and thank-offerings, and every willing-hearted one -- burnt-offerings.
field: 14029032
14
29
32
And the number of the burnt-offerings that the assembly have brought in, is seventy oxen, a hundred rams, lambs two hundred; for a burnt-offering to Jehovah `are' all these.
field: 14029033
14
29
33
And the sanctified things `are' oxen six hundred, and sheep three thousand.
field: 14029034
14
29
34
Only, the priests have become few, and have not been able to strip the whole of the burnt-offerings, and their brethren the Levites strengthen them till the completion of the work, and till the priests sanctify themselves, for the Levites `are' more upright of heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.
field: 14029035
14
29
35
And also, burnt-offerings `are' in abundance, with fat of the peace-offerings, and with oblations for the burnt-offering; and the service of the house of Jehovah is established,
field: 14029036
14
29
36
and rejoice doth Hezekiah and all the people, because of God's giving preparation to the people, for the thing hath been suddenly.
field: 14030001
14
30
1
And Hezekiah sendeth unto all Israel and Judah, and also letters he hath written unto Ephraim and Manasseh, to come in to the house of Jehovah in Jerusalem, to make a passover to Jehovah, God of Israel.
field: 14030002
14
30
2
And the king taketh counsel, and his heads, and all the assembly in Jerusalem, to make the passover in the second month,
field: 14030003
14
30
3
for they have not been able to make it at that time, for the priests have not sanctified themselves sufficiently, and the people have not been gathered to Jerusalem.
field: 14030004
14
30
4
And the thing is right in the eyes of the king, and in the eyes of all the assembly,
field: 14030005
14
30
5
and they establish the thing, to cause to pass over an intimation into all Israel, from Beer-Sheba even unto Dan, to come in to make a passover to Jehovah, God of Israel, in Jerusalem, for not for a long time had they done as it is written.
field: 14030006
14
30
6
And the runners go with letters from the hand of the king and his heads, into all Israel and Judah, even according to the command of the king, saying, `O sons of Israel, turn back unto Jehovah, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, and He doth turn back unto the escaped part that is left of you from the hand of the kings of Asshur;
field: 14030007
14
30
7
and do not be like your fathers, and like your brethren, who trespassed against Jehovah, God of their fathers, and He giveth them to desolation, as ye do see.
field: 14030008
14
30
8
`Now, harden not your neck like your fathers, give a hand to Jehovah, and come in to His sanctuary, that He hath sanctified to the age, and serve Jehovah your God, and the fierceness of His anger doth turn back from you;
field: 14030009
14
30
9
for in your turning back unto Jehovah, your brethren and your sons have mercies before their captors, even to return to this land, for gracious and merciful `is' Jehovah your God, and He doth not turn aside the face from you, if ye turn back unto Him.'
field: 14030010
14
30
10
And the runners are passing over from city to city, in the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, even unto Zebulun: and they are laughing at them, and mocking at them,
field: 14030011
14
30
11
only, certain from Asher, and Manasseh, and from Zebulun, have been humbled, and come in to Jerusalem.
field: 14030012
14
30
12
Also, in Judah hath the hand of God been to give to them one heart to do the command of the king and of the heads, in the matter of Jehovah;
field: 14030013
14
30
13
and much people are gathered to Jerusalem, to make the feast of unleavened things in the second month -- a mighty assembly for multitude.
field: 14030014
14
30
14
And they arise and turn aside the altars that `are' in Jerusalem, and all the perfume altars they have turned aside, and cast `them' to the brook Kidron;
field: 14030015
14
30
15
and they slaughter the passover-offering on the fourteenth of the second month, and the priests and the Levites have been ashamed, and sanctify themselves, and bring in burnt-offerings to the house of Jehovah.
field: 14030016
14
30
16
And they stand on their station according to their ordinance; according to the law of Moses the man of God the priests are sprinkling the blood out of the hand of the Levites,
field: 14030017
14
30
17
for many `are' in the assembly who have not sanctified themselves, and the Levites `are' over the slaughtering of the passover-offerings for every one not clean, to sanctify `him' to Jehovah:
field: 14030018
14
30
18
for a multitude of the people, many from Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, have not been cleansed, but have eaten the passover otherwise than it is written; but Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, `Jehovah, who `is' good, doth receive atonement for every one
field: 14030019
14
30
19
who hath prepared his heart to seek God -- Jehovah, God of his fathers -- yet not according to the cleansing of the sanctuary;'
field: 14030020
14
30
20
and Jehovah hearkeneth unto Hezekiah, and healeth the people.
field: 14030021
14
30
21
And the sons of Israel, those found in Jerusalem, make the feast of unleavened things seven days with great joy; and giving praise to Jehovah day by day are the Levites and the priests, with instruments of praise before Jehovah.
field: 14030022
14
30
22
And Hezekiah speaketh unto the heart of all the Levites, those giving good understanding concerning Jehovah, and they eat the appointed thing seven days; sacrificing sacrifices of peace-offerings, and making confession to Jehovah, God of their fathers.
field: 14030023
14
30
23
And all the assembly take counsel to keep other seven days, and they keep seven days `with' joy;
field: 14030024
14
30
24
for Hezekiah king of Judah hath presented to the assembly a thousand bullocks, and seven thousand sheep; and the heads have presented to the assembly bullocks a thousand, and sheep ten thousand; and priests sanctify themselves in abundance.
field: 14030025
14
30
25
And all the assembly of Judah rejoice, and the priests, and the Levites, and all the assembly, those coming in from Israel, and the sojourners, those coming in from the land of Israel, and those dwelling in Judah,
field: 14030026
14
30
26
and there is great joy in Jerusalem; for from the days of Solomon son of David king of Israel there is not like this in Jerusalem,
field: 14030027
14
30
27
and the priests, the Levites, rise and bless the people, and their voice is heard, and their prayer cometh in to His holy habitation, to the heavens.
field: 14031001
14
31
1
And at the completion of all this, gone out have all Israel who are found present to the cities of Judah, and break the standing-pillars, and cut down the shrines, and break down the high places and the altars, out of all Judah and Benjamin, and in Ephraim and Manasseh, even to completion, and all the sons of Israel turn back, each to his Possession, to their cities.
field: 14031002
14
31
2
And Hezekiah appointeth the courses of the priests, and of the Levites, by their courses, each according to his service, of the priests and of the Levites, for burnt-offering, and for peace-offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to give praise in the gates of the camps of Jehovah.
field: 14031003
14
31
3
And a portion of the king, from his substance, `is' for burnt-offerings, for burnt-offerings of the morning, and of the evening, and the burnt-offerings of sabbaths, and of new moons, and of appointed seasons, as it is written in the law of Jehovah.
field: 14031004
14
31
4
And he saith to the people, to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to give the portion of the priests, and of the Levites, so that they are strengthened in the law of Jehovah;
field: 14031005
14
31
5
and at the spreading forth of the thing have the sons of Israel multiplied the first-fruit of corn, new wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field, and the tithe of the whole in abundance they have brought in.
field: 14031006
14
31
6
And the sons of Israel and Judah, those dwelling in cities of Judah, they also a tithe of herd and flock, and a tithe of the holy things that are sanctified to Jehovah their God, have brought in, and they give -- heaps, heaps;
field: 14031007
14
31
7
in the third month they have begun to lay the foundation of the heaps, and in the seventh month they have finished.
field: 14031008
14
31
8
And Hezekiah and the heads come in and see the heaps, and bless Jehovah and His people Israel,
field: 14031009
14
31
9
and Hezekiah inquireth at the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps,
field: 14031010
14
31
10
and Azariah the head priest, of the house of Zadok, speaketh unto him, and saith, `From the beginning of the bringing of the heave-offering to the house of Jehovah, `there is' to eat, and to be satisfied, and to leave abundantly, for Jehovah hath blessed His people, and that left `is' this store.'
field: 14031011
14
31
11
And Hezekiah saith to prepare chambers in the house of Jehovah, and they prepare,
field: 14031012
14
31
12
and they bring in the heave-offering, and the tithe, and the holy things faithfully; and over them is a leader, Conaniah the Levite, and Shimei his brother `is' second;
field: 14031013
14
31
13
and Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, `are' inspectors under the hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah leader of the house of God.
field: 14031014
14
31
14
And Kore son of Imnah the Levite, the gatekeeper at the east, `is' over the willing-offerings of God, to give the heave-offering of Jehovah, and the most holy things.
field: 14031015
14
31
15
And by his hand `are' Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shechaniah, in cities of the priests, faithfully to give to their brethren in courses, as the great so the small,
field: 14031016
14
31
16
apart from their genealogy, to males from a son of three years and upward, to every one who hath gone in to the house of Jehovah, by the matter of a day in its day, for their service in their charges, according to their courses;
field: 14031017
14
31
17
and the genealogy of the priests by the house of their fathers, and of the Levites, from a son of twenty years and upward, in their charges, in their courses;
field: 14031018
14
31
18
and to the genealogy among all their infants, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters to all the congregation, for in their faithfulness they sanctify themselves in holiness.
field: 14031019
14
31
19
And to sons of Aaron, the priests, in the fields of the suburb of their cities, in every city and city, `are' men who have been defined by name, to give portions to every male among the priests, and to every one who reckoned himself by genealogy among the Levites.
field: 14031020
14
31
20
And Hezekiah doth thus in all Judah, and doth that which is good, and that which is right, and that which is true, before Jehovah his God;
field: 14031021
14
31
21
and in every work that he hath begun for the service of the house of God, and for the law, and for the command, to seek to his God, with all his heart he hath wrought and prospered.
field: 14032001
14

1
After these things and this truth, come hath Sennacherib king of Asshur, yea, he cometh in to Judah, and encampeth against the cities of the bulwarks, and saith to rend them unto himself.
field: 14032002
14
32
2
And Hezekiah seeth that Sennacherib hath come, and his face `is' to the battle against Jerusalem,
field: 14032003
14
32
3
and he taketh counsel with his heads and his mighty ones, to stop the waters of the fountains that `are' at the outside of the city -- and they help him,
field: 14032004
14
32
4
and much people are gathered, and they stop all the fountains and the brook that is rushing into the midst of the land, saying, `Why do the kings of Asshur come, and have found much water?'
field: 14032005
14
32
5
And he strengtheneth himself, and buildeth the whole of the wall that is broken, and causeth `it' to ascend unto the towers, and at the outside of the wall another, and strengtheneth Millo, `in' the city of David, and maketh darts in abundance, and shields.
field: 14032006
14
32
6
And he putteth heads of war over the people, and gathereth them unto him, unto the broad place of a gate of the city, and speaketh unto their heart, saying,
field: 14032007
14
32
7
`Be strong and courageous, be not afraid, nor be cast down from the face of the king of Asshur, and from the face of all the multitude that `is' with him, for with us `are' more than with him.
field: 14032008
14
32
8
With him `is' an arm of flesh, and with us `is' Jehovah our God, to help us, and to fight our battles;' and the people are supported by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
field: 14032009
14
32
9
After this hath Sennacherib king of Asshur sent his servants to Jerusalem -- and he `is' by Lachish, and all his power with him -- against Hezekiah king of Judah, and against all Judah, who `are' in Jerusalem, saying,
field: 14032010
14
32
10
`Thus said Sennacherib king of Asshur, On what are ye trusting and abiding in the bulwark, in Jerusalem?
field: 14032011
14
32
11
`Is not Hezekiah persuading you, to give you up to die by famine, and by thirst, saying, Jehovah our God doth deliver us from the hand of the king of Asshur?
field: 14032012
14
32
12
Hath not Hezekiah himself turned aside His high places, and His altars, and speaketh to Judah and to Jerusalem, saying, Before one altar ye bow yourselves, and on it ye make perfume?
field: 14032013
14
32
13
`Do ye not know what I have done -- I and my fathers -- to all peoples of the lands? Were the gods of the nations of the lands at all able to deliver their land out of my hand?
field: 14032014
14
32
14
Who among all the gods of these nations whom my fathers have devoted to destruction `is' he who hath been able to deliver his people out of my hand, that your God is able to deliver you out of my hand?
field: 14032015
14
32
15
`And, now, let not Hezekiah lift you up, nor persuade you thus, nor give credence to him, for no god of any nation and kingdom is able to deliver his people from my hand, and from the hand of my fathers: also, surely your God doth not deliver you from my hand!'
field: 14032016
14
32
16
And again have his servants spoken against Jehovah God, and against Hezekiah His servant,
field: 14032017
14
32
17
and letters he hath written to give reproach to Jehovah, God of Israel, and to speak against Him, saying, `As the gods of the nations of the lands that have not delivered their people from my hand, so the God of Hezekiah doth not deliver His people from my hand.'
field: 14032018
14
32
18
And they call with a great voice `in' Jewish, against the people of Jerusalem who `are' on the wall, to frighten them, and to trouble them, that they may capture the city,
field: 14032019
14
32
19
and they speak against the God of Jerusalem as against the gods of the peoples of the land -- work of the hands of man.
field: 14032020
14
32
20
And Hezekiah the king prayeth, and Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet, concerning this, and they cry to the heavens,
field: 14032021
14
32
21
and Jehovah sendeth a messenger, and cutteth off every mighty one of valour -- both leader and head -- in the camp of the king of Asshur, and he turneth back with shame of face to his land, and entereth the house of his god, and those coming out of his bowels have caused him to fall there by the sword.
field: 14032022
14
32
22
And Jehovah saveth Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib king of Asshur, and from the hand of all, and He leadeth them round about;
field: 14032023
14
32
23
and many are bringing in an offering to Jehovah, to Jerusalem, and precious things to Hezekiah king of Judah, and he is lifted up before the eyes of all the nations after this.
field: 14032024
14
32
24
In those days hath Hezekiah been sick even unto death, and he prayeth unto Jehovah, and He speaketh to him, and a wonder hath appointed for him;
field: 14032025
14
32
25
and Hezekiah hath not returned according to the deed `done' unto him, for his heart hath been lofty, and there is wrath upon him, and upon Judah and Jerusalem;
field: 14032026
14
32
26
and Hezekiah is humbled for the loftiness of his heart, he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the wrath of Jehovah hath not come upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
field: 14032027
14
32
27
And Hezekiah hath riches and honour very much, and treasures he hath made to himself of silver, and of gold, and of precious stone, and of spices, and of shields, and of all `kinds' of desirable vessels,
field: 14032028
14
32
28
and storehouses for the increase of corn, and new wine, and oil, and stalls for all kinds of cattle, and herds for stalls;
field: 14032029
14
32
29
and cities he hath made for himself, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance, for God hath given to him very much substance.
field: 14032030
14
32
30
And Hezekiah himself hath stopped the upper source of the waters of Gihon, and directeth them beneath to the west of the city of David, and Hezekiah prospereth in all his work;
field: 14032031
14
32
31
and so with the ambassadors of the heads of Babylon, those sending unto him to inquire of the wonder that hath been in the land, God hath left him to try him, to know all in his heart,
field: 14032032
14
32
32
And the rest of the matters of Hezekiah, and his kind acts, lo, they are written in the vision of Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet, on the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
field: 14032033
14
32
33
And Hezekiah lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the uppermost of the graves of the sons of David, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem have done honour to him at his death, and reign doth Manasseh his son in his stead.
field: 14033001
14
33
1
A son of twelve years is Manasseh in his reigning, and fifty and five years he hath reigned in Jerusalem;
field: 14033002
14
33
2
and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, like the abominations of the nations that Jehovah dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel,
field: 14033003
14
33
3
and he turneth and buildeth the high places that Hezekiah his father hath broken down, and raiseth altars for Baalim, and maketh shrines, and boweth himself to all the host of the heavens, and serveth them.
field: 14033004
14
33
4
And he hath built altars in the house of Jehovah of which Jehovah had said, `In Jerusalem is My name to the age.'
field: 14033005
14
33
5
And he buildeth altars to all the host of the heavens in the two courts of the house of Jehovah.
field: 14033006
14
33
6
And he hath caused his sons to pass over through fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and observed clouds and used enchantments and witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and a wizard; he hath multiplied to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger.
field: 14033007
14
33

And he placeth the graven image of the idol that he made in the house of God, of which God said unto David, and unto Solomon his son, `In this house, and in Jerusalem that I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I put My name to the age,

14
33
8
and I add not to turn aside the foot of Israel from off the ground that I appointed to your fathers, only, if they watch to do all that I have commanded them -- to all the law, and the statutes, and the ordinances by the hand of Moses.'
field: 14033009
14

And Manasseh maketh Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to err, to do evil above the nations that Jehovah destroyed from the presence of the sons of Israel.
field: 14033010
14
33
10
And Jehovah speaketh unto Manasseh and unto his people, and they have not attended,
field: 14033011
14
33
11
and Jehovah bringeth in against them the heads of the host that the king of Asshur hath, and they capture Manasseh among the thickets, and bind him with brazen fetters, and cause him to go to Babylon.
field: 14033012
14
33
12
And when he is in distress he hath appeased the face of Jehovah his God, and is humbled exceedingly before the God of his fathers,
field: 14033013
14
33
13
and prayeth unto Him, and He is entreated of him, and heareth his supplication, and bringeth him back to Jerusalem, to his kingdom, and Manasseh knoweth that Jehovah -- He `is' God.
field: 14033014
14
33
14
And after this he hath built an outer wall to the city of David, on the west of Gihon, in the valley, and at the entering in at the fish-gate, and it hath gone round to the tower, and he maketh it exceeding high, and he putteth heads of the force in all the cities of the bulwarks in Judah.
field: 14033015
14
33
15
And he turneth aside the gods of the stranger, and the idol, out of the house of Jehovah, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of Jehovah and in Jerusalem, and casteth `them' to the outside of the city.
field: 14033016
14
33
16
And he buildeth the altar of Jehovah, and sacrificeth upon it sacrifices of peace-offerings and thank-offering, and saith to Judah to serve Jehovah, God of Israel;
field: 14033017
14
33
17
but still the people are sacrificing in high places, only -- to Jehovah their God.
field: 14033018
14
33
18
And the rest of the matters of Manasseh, and his prayer unto his God, and the matters of the seers, those speaking unto him in the name of Jehovah, God of Israel, lo, they are `on the book of' the matters of the kings of Israel;
field: 14033019
14
33
19
and his prayer, and his entreaty, and all his sin, and his trespass, and the places in which he had built high places, and established the shrines and the graven images before his being humbled, lo, they are written beside the matters of Hozai.

And Manasseh lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in his own house, and reign doth Amon his son in his stead.
field: 14033021
14
33
21
A son of twenty and two years `is' Amon in his reigning, and two years he hath reigned in Jerusalem,
field: 14033022
14
33
22
and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, as did Manasseh his father, and to all the graven images that Manasseh his father had made hath Amon sacrificed, and serveth them,
field: 14033023
14
33
23
and hath not been humbled before Jehovah, like the humbling of Manasseh his father, for Amon himself hath multiplied guilt.
field: 14033024
14
33
24
And his servants conspire against him, and put him to death in his own house,
field: 14033025
14
33
25
and the people of the land smite all those conspiring against king Amon, and the people of the land cause Josiah his son to reign in his stead.

A son of eight years `is' Josiah in his reigning, and thirty and one years he hath reigned in Jerusalem,

14

and he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, and walketh in the ways of David his father, and hath not turned aside -- right or left.
field: 14034003
14
34
3
And in the eighth year of his reign (and he yet a youth), he hath begun to seek to the God of David his father, and in the twelfth year he hath begun to cleanse Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the shrines, and the graven images, and the molten images.
field: 14034004
14
34
4
And they break down before him the altars of the Baalim, and the images that `are' on high above them he hath cut down, and the shrines, and the graven images, and the molten images, he hath broken and beaten small, and streweth on the surface of the graves of those sacrificing to them,
field: 14034005
14
34
5
and the bones of the priests he hath burnt on their altars, and cleanseth Judah and Jerusalem,
field: 14034006
14
34
6
and in the cities of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and Simeon, even unto Naphtali, with their tools, round about.
field: 14034007
14
34
7
And he breaketh down the altars and the shrines, and the graven images he hath beaten down very small, and all the images he hath cut down in all the land of Israel, and turneth back to Jerusalem.
field: 14034008
14
34
8
And in the eighteenth year of his reign, to purify the land and the house he hath sent Shaphan son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah head of the city, and Joah son of Johaz the remembrancer, to strengthen the house of Jehovah his God.

And they come in unto Hilkiah the high priest, and they give the money that is brought in to the house of God, that the Levites, keeping the threshold, have gathered from the hand of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and from all the remnant of Israel, and from all Judah, and Benjamin, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem,
field: 14034010
14
34
10
and they give `it' into the hand of the workmen, those appointed over the house of Jehovah, and they give it `to' the workmen who are working in the house of Jehovah, to repair and to strengthen the house;
field: 14034011
14
34
11
and they give `it' to artificers, and to builders, to buy hewn stones, and wood for couplings and for beams to the houses that the kings of Judah had destroyed.
field: 14034012
14
34
12
And the men are working faithfully in the business, and over them are appointed Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathite, to overlook; and of the Levites, every one understanding about instruments of song,

And in their bringing out the money that is brought in to the house of Jehovah, hath Hilkiah the priest found the book of the law of Jehovah by the hand of Moses,
field: 14034015
14
34
15
and Hilkiah answereth and saith unto Shaphan the scribe, `A book of the law I have found in the house of Jehovah;' and Hilkiah giveth the book unto Shaphan,
field: 14034016
14
34
16
and Shaphan bringeth in the book unto the king, and bringeth the king back word again, saying, `All that hath been given into the hand of thy servants they are doing,
field: 14034017
14
34
17
and they pour out the money that is found in the house of Jehovah, and give it into the hand of those appointed, and into the hands of those doing the work.'
field: 14034018
14
34
18
And Shaphan the scribe declareth to the king, saying, `A book hath Hilkiah the priest given to me;' and Shaphan readeth in it before the king.
field: 14034019
14
34
19
And it cometh to pass, at the king's hearing the words of the law, that he rendeth his garments,
field: 14034020
14
34
20
and the king commandeth Hilkiah, and Ahikam son of Shaphan, and Abdon son of Micah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah, servant of the king, saying,
field: 14034021
14
34
21
`Go, seek Jehovah for me, and for him who is left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the book that is found, for great `is' the fury of Jehovah that is poured on us, because that our fathers kept not the word of Jehovah, to do according to all that is written on this book.'
field: 14034022
14
34
22
And Hilkiah goeth, and they of the king, unto Huldah the prophetess, wife of Shallum son of Tikvath, son of Hasrah, keeper of the garments, and she is dwelling in Jerusalem in the Second, and they speak unto her thus.
field: 14034023
14
34
23
And she saith to them, `Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Say to the man who hath sent you unto me,
field: 14034024
14
34
24
Thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am bringing in evil on this place, and on its inhabitants, all the execrations that are written on the book that they read before the king of Judah;
field: 14034025
14
34
25
because that they have forsaken Me, and make perfume to other gods, so as to provoke Me with all the works of their hands, and poured out is My fury upon this place, and it is not quenched.
field: 14034026
14
34
26
`And unto the king of Judah, who is sending you to inquire of Jehovah, thus do ye say unto him: Thus said Jehovah God of Israel, whose words thou hast heard:
field: 14034027
14
34
27
Because thy heart `is' tender, and thou art humbled before God in thy hearing His words concerning this place, and concerning its inhabitants, and art humbled before Me, and dost rend thy garments, and weep before Me: even I also have heard -- the affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 14034028
14
34
28
Lo, I am gathering thee unto thy fathers, and thou hast been gathered unto thy graves in peace, and thine eyes do not look on all the evil that I am bringing upon this place, and upon its inhabitants;' and they bring the king back word.
field: 14034029
14
34
29
And the king sendeth and gathereth all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem,
field: 14034030
14
34
30
and the king goeth up to the house of Jehovah, and every man of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests, and the Levites, even all the people, from great even unto small, and he readeth in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant that is found in the house of Jehovah.
field: 14034031
14
34
31
And the king standeth on his station, and maketh the covenant before Jehovah, to walk after Jehovah, and to keep His commands, and His testimonies, and His statutes, with all his heart, and with all his soul, to do the words of the covenant that are written on this book.
field: 14034032
14
34
32
And he presenteth every one who is found in Jerusalem and Benjamin, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem do according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.
field: 14034033
14
34
33
And Josiah turneth aside all the abominations out of all the lands that the sons of Israel have, and causeth every one who is found in Israel to serve, to serve Jehovah their God; all his days they turned not aside from after Jehovah, God of their fathers.
field: 14035001
14
35
1
And Josiah maketh in Jerusalem a passover to Jehovah, and they slaughter the passover-offering on the fourteenth of the first month,
field: 14035002
14
35
2
and he stationeth the priests over their charges, and strengtheneth them for the service of the house of Jehovah,
field: 14035003
14
35
3
and saith to the Levites -- who are teaching all Israel -- who are sanctified to Jehovah, `Put the holy ark in the house that Solomon son of David king of Israel built; it is not to you a burden on the shoulder. `Now, serve Jehovah your God, and His people Israel,
field: 14035004
14
35
4
and prepare, by the house of your fathers, according to your courses, by the writing of David king of Israel, and by the writing of Solomon his son,
field: 14035005
14
35
5
and stand in the sanctuary, by the divisions of the house of the fathers of your brethren, sons of the people, and the portion of the house of a father of the Levites,
field: 14035006
14
35
6
and slaughter the passover-offering and sanctify yourselves, and prepare for your brethren, to do according to the word of Jehovah by the hand of Moses.'
field: 14035007
14
35
7
And Josiah lifteth up to the sons of the people a flock of lambs and young goats, the whole for passover-offerings, for every one who is found, to the number of thirty thousand, and oxen three thousand: these `are' from the substance of the king.
field: 14035008
14
35
8
And his heads, for a willing-offering to the people, to the priests, and to the Levites, have lifted up; Hilkiah, and Zechariah, and Jehiel, leaders in the house of God, to the priests have given for passover-offerings two thousand and six hundred, and oxen three hundred;
field: 14035009
14
35
9
and Conaniah, and Shemaiah, and Nethaneel, his brethren, and Hashabiah, and Jeiel, and Jozabad, heads of the Levites, have lifted up to the Levites, for passover-offerings, five thousand, and oxen five hundred.
field: 14035010
14
35
10
And the service is prepared, and the priests stand on their station, and the Levites on their courses, according to the command of the king,
field: 14035011
14
35
11
and they slaughter the passover-offering, and the priests sprinkle out of their hand, and the Levites are striping;
field: 14035012
14
35
12
and they turn aside the burnt-offering, to put them by the divisions of the house of the fathers of the sons of the people, to bring near to Jehovah, as it is written in the book of Moses -- and so to the oxen.
field: 14035013
14
35
13
And they cook the passover with fire, according to the ordinance, and the sanctified things they have cooked in pots, and in kettles, and in pans -- for all the sons of the people.
field: 14035014
14
35
14
And afterward they have prepared for themselves, and for the priests: for the priests, sons of Aaron, `are' in the offering up of the burnt-offering and of the fat till night; and the Levites have prepared for themselves, and for the priests, sons of Aaron.
field: 14035015
14
35
15
And the singers, sons of Asaph, `are' on their station, according to the command of David, and Asaph, and Heman, and Jeduthun seer of the king, and the gate keepers `are' at gate and gate; it is not for them to turn aside from off their service, for their brethren the Levites have prepared for them.
field: 14035016
14
35
16
And all the service of Jehovah is prepared on that day, to keep the passover, and to cause to ascend burnt-offering upon the altar of Jehovah, according to the command of king Josiah.
field: 14035017
14
35
17
And the sons of Israel who are found make the passover at that time, and the feast of unleavened things, seven days.
field: 14035018
14
35
18
And there hath not been made a passover like it in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet, and none of the kings of Israel made such a passover as Josiah hath made, and the priests, and the Levites, and all Judah and Israel who are found, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
field: 14035019
14
35
19
In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah hath this passover been made.
field: 14035020
14
35
20
After all this, when Josiah hath prepared the house, come up hath Necho king of Egypt, to fight against Carchemish by Phrat, and Josiah goeth forth to meet him;
field: 14035021
14
35
21
and he sendeth unto him messengers, saying, `What -- to me and to thee, O king of Judah? not against thee do I come to-day, but unto the house with which I have war, and God said to haste me; cease for thee from God who `is' with me, and He doth not destroy thee.'
field: 14035022
14
35
22
And Josiah hath not turned round his face from him, but to fight against him hath disguised himself, and hath not hearkened unto the words of Necho, from the mouth of God, and cometh in to fight in the valley of Megiddo;
field: 14035023
14
35
23
and the archers shoot at king Josiah, and the king saith to his servants, `Remove me, for I have become very sick.'
field: 14035024
14
35
24
And his servants remove him from the chariot, and cause him to ride on the second chariot that he hath, and cause him to go to Jerusalem, and he dieth, and is buried in the graves of his fathers, and all Judah and Jerusalem are mourning for Josiah,
field: 14035025
14
35
25
and Jeremiah lamenteth for Josiah, and all the singers and the songstresses speak in their lamentations of Josiah unto this day, and set them for a statute on Israel, and lo, they are written beside the lamentations.
field: 14035026
14
35
26
And the rest of the matters of Josiah, and his kind acts, according as it is written in the law of Jehovah,

even his matters, the first and the last, lo, they are written on the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.

13
and also, against king Nebuchadnezzar he hath rebelled, who had caused him to swear by God, and he hardeneth his neck, and strengtheneth his heart, against turning back unto Jehovah, God of Israel.

Also, all the heads of the priests, and the people, having multiplied to commit a trespass according to all the abominations of the nations, and they defile the house of Jehovah that He hath sanctified in Jerusalem.

From the first day of the seventh month they have begun to cause burnt-offerings to ascend to Jehovah, and the temple of Jehovah hath not been founded,

and they give money to hewers and to artificers, and food, and drink, and oil to Zidonians and to Tyrians, to bring in cedar-trees from Lebanon unto the sea of Joppa, according to the permission of Cyrus king of Persia concerning them.

And in the second year of their coming in unto the house of God, to Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua son of Jozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all those coming from the captivity to Jerusalem, and they appoint the Levites from a son of twenty years and upward, to overlook the work of the house of Jehovah.

And adversaries of Judah and Benjamin hear that the sons of the captivity are building a temple to Jehovah, God of Israel,

and they draw nigh unto Zerubbabel, and unto heads of the fathers, and say to them, `Let us build with you; for, like you, we seek to your God, and we are not sacrificing since the days of Esar-Haddon king of Asshur, who brought us up hither.'

And Zerubbabel saith to them, also Jeshua, and the rest of the heads of the fathers of Israel, `Not for you, and for us, to build a house to our God; but we ourselves together do build to Jehovah God of Israel, as the king Cyrus, king of Persia, commanded us.'

This `is' a copy of a letter that they have sent unto him, unto Artaxerxes the king: `Thy servants, men beyond the river, and at such a time;

12
Be it known to the king, that the Jews who have come up from thee unto us, have come in to Jerusalem, the rebellious and base city they are building, and the walls they have finished, and the foundations they join.

15

`Now, be it known to the king, that if this city be builded, and the walls finished, toll, tribute, and custom they do not give; and at length `to' the kings it doth cause loss.
field: 15004014
15

14
Now, because that the salt of the palace `is' our salt, and the nakedness of the king we have no patience to see, therefore we have sent and made known to the king;
field: 15004015
15
4
15
so that he doth seek in the book of the records of thy fathers, and thou dost find in the book of the records, and dost know, that this city `is' a rebellious city, and causing loss `to' kings and provinces, and makers of sedition `are' in its midst from the days of old, therefore hath this city been wasted.
field: 15004016
15

16
We are making known to the king that, if this city be builded and the walls finished, by this means a portion beyond the river thou hast none.'
field: 15004017
15

17
An answer hath the king sent unto Rehum counsellor, and Shimshai scribe, and the rest of their companions who are dwelling in Samaria, and the rest beyond the river, `Peace, and at such a time:

The letter that ye sent unto us, explained, hath been read before me,

and by me a decree hath been made, and they sought, and have found that this city from the days of old against kings is lifting up itself, and rebellion and sedition is made in it,

and mighty kings have been over Jerusalem, even rulers over all beyond the river, and toll, tribute, and custom is given to them.

`Now, make ye a decree to cause these men to cease, and this city is not builded, till by me a decree is made.

Then from the time that a copy of the letter of king Artaxerxes is read before Rehum, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they have gone in haste to Jerusalem, unto the Jews, and caused them to cease by force and strength;

Then thus we have said to them, `What `are' the names of the men who are building this building?'

`To Darius the king, all peace! be it known to the king that we have gone to the province of Judah, to the great house of God, and it is built `with' rolled stones, and wood is placed in the walls, and this work is done speedily, and prospering in their hand.

Then we have asked of these elders, thus we have said to them, Who hath made for you a decree this house to build, and this wall to finish?

And also their names we have asked of them, to let thee know, that we might write the names of the men who `are' at their head.

`And thus they have returned us word, saying, We `are' servants of the God of heaven and earth, and are building the house that was built many years before this, that a great king of Israel built and finished:

12
but after that our fathers made the God of heaven angry, he gave them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon the Chaldean, and this house he destroyed, and the people he removed to Babylon;

but in the first year of Cyrus king of Babylon, Cyrus the king made a decree to build this house of God,

and also, the vessels of the house of God, of gold and silver, that Nebuchadnezzar had taken forth out of the temple that `is' in Jerusalem, and brought them to the temple of Babylon, them hath Cyrus the king brought forth out of the temple of Babylon, and they have been given to `one', Sheshbazzar `is' his name, whom he made governor,

Then Tatnai, governor beyond the river, Shethar-Boznai, and their companions, according to that which Darius the king hath sent, so they have done speedily;

14
and the elders of the Jews are building and prospering through the prophecy of Haggai the prophet, and Zechariah son of Iddo, and they have built and finished by the decree of the God of Israel, and by the decree of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia.
field: 15006015
15

15
And this house hath gone out till the third day of the month Adar, that is `in' the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
field: 15006016
15

16
And the sons of Israel have made, `and' the priests, and the Levites, and the rest of the sons of the captivity, a dedication of this house of God with joy,
field: 15006017
15
6
17
and have brought near for the dedication of this house of God, bullocks a hundred, rams two hundred, lambs four hundred; and young he-goats for a sin-offering for all Israel, twelve, according to the number of the tribes of Israel;
field: 15006018
15
6
18
and they have established the priests in their divisions, and the Levites in their courses, over the service of God that `is' in Jerusalem, as it is written in the book of Moses.
field: 15006019
15
6
19
And the sons of the captivity make the passover on the fourteenth of the first month,
field: 15006020
15
6
20
for the priests and the Levites have been purified together -- all of them `are' pure -- and they slaughter the passover for all the sons of the captivity, and for their brethren the priests, and for themselves.
field: 15006021
15
6
21
And the sons of Israel, those returning from the captivity, and every one who is separated from the uncleanness of the nations of the land unto them, to seek to Jehovah, God of Israel, do eat,
field: 15006022
15
6
22
and they make the feast of unleavened things seven days with joy, for Jehovah made them to rejoice, and turned round the heart of the king of Asshur unto them, to strengthen their hands in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel.

And after these things, in the reign of Artaxerxes king of Persia, Ezra son of Seraiah, son of Azariah, son of Hilkiah,

15

2
son of Shallum, son of Zadok, son of Ahitub,

son of Amariah, son of Azariah, son of Meraioth,

son of Zerahiah, son of Uzzi, son of Bukki,
field: 15007005

son of Abishua, son of Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the head priest;

15

Ezra himself hath come up from Babylon, and he `is' a scribe ready in the law of Moses, that Jehovah God of Israel gave, and the king giveth to him -- according to the hand of Jehovah his God upon him -- all his request.
field: 15007007
15
7
7
And there go up of the sons of Israel, and of the priests, and the Levites, and the singers, and the gatekeepers, and the Nethinim, unto Jerusalem, in the seventh year of Artaxerxes the king.
field: 15007008
15
7
8
And he cometh in to Jerusalem in the fifth month, that `is in' the seventh year of the king,
field: 15007009
15
7
9
for on the first of the month he hath founded the ascent from Babylon, and on the first of the fifth month he hath come in unto Jerusalem, according to the good hand of his God upon him,
field: 15007010
15
7
10
for Ezra hath prepared his heart to seek the law of Jehovah, and to do, and to teach in Israel statute and judgment.
field: 15007011
15
7
11
And this `is' a copy of the letter that the king Artaxerxes gave to Ezra the priest, the scribe, a scribe of the words of the commands of Jehovah, and of His statutes on Israel:
field: 15007012
15
7
12
`Artaxerxes, king of kings, to Ezra the priest, a perfect scribe of the law of the God of heaven, and at such a time:
field: 15007013
15
7
13
By me hath been made a decree that every one who is willing, in my kingdom, of the people of Israel and of its priests and Levites, to go to Jerusalem with thee, doth go;
field: 15007014
15
7
14
because that from the king and his seven counsellors thou art sent, to inquire concerning Judah and concerning Jerusalem, with the law of God that `is' in thy hand,
field: 15007015
15
7
15
and to carry silver and gold that the king and his counsellors willingly offered to the God of Israel, whose tabernacle `is' in Jerusalem,
field: 15007016
15
7
16
and all the silver and gold that thou findest in all the province of Babylon, with the free-will offerings of the people, and of the priests, offering willingly, for the house of their God that `is' in Jerusalem,
field: 15007017
15
7
17
therefore thou dost speedily buy with this money, bullocks, rams, lambs, and their presents, and their libations, and dost bring them near to the altar of the house of your God that `is' in Jerusalem,
field: 15007018
15
7
18
and that which to thee and to thy brethren is good to do with the rest of the silver and gold, according to the will of your God ye do.'
field: 15007019
15
7
19
`And the vessels that are given to thee, for the service of the house of thy God, make perfect before the God of Jerusalem;
field: 15007020
15
7
20
and the rest of the needful things of the house of thy God, that it falleth to thee to give, thou dost give from the treasure-house of the king.
field: 15007021
15
7
21
`And by me -- I Artaxerxes the king -- is made a decree to all treasurers who `are' beyond the river, that all that Ezra the priest, scribe of the law of the God of heaven, doth ask of you, be done speedily:
field: 15007022
15
7
22
Unto silver a hundred talents, and unto wheat a hundred cors, and unto wine a hundred baths, and unto oil a hundred baths, and salt without reckoning;
field: 15007023
15
7
23
all that `is' by the decree of the God of heaven, let be done diligently for the house of the God of heaven; for why is there wrath against the kingdom of the king and his sons?
field: 15007024
15
7
24
`And to you we are making known, that upon any of the priests and Levites, singers, gatekeepers, Nethinim, and servants of the house of God, tribute and custom there is no authority to lift up.
field: 15007025
15
7
25
`And thou, Ezra, according to the wisdom of thy God, that `is' in thy hand, appoint magistrates and judges who may be judges to all the people who are beyond the river, to all knowing the law of thy God, and he who hath not known ye cause to know;
field: 15007026
15
7
26
and any who doth not do the law of thy God, and the law of the king, speedily is judgment done upon him, whether to death, or to banishment, or to confiscation of riches, and to bonds.'
field: 15007027
15
7
27
Blessed `is' Jehovah, God of our fathers, who hath given such a thing as this in the heart of the king, to beautify the house of Jehovah that `is' in Jerusalem,
field: 15007028
15
7
28
and unto me hath stretched out kindness before the king and his counsellors, and before all the mighty heads of the king: and I have strengthened myself as the hand of Jehovah my God `is' upon me, and I gather out of Israel heads to go up with me.

And from the sons of Bebai: Zechariah son of Bebai, and with him twenty and eight who are males.

14
And from the sons of Bigvai, Uthai and Zabbud, and with them seventy who are males.
field: 15008015
15

15
And I gather them unto the river that is going unto Ahava, and we encamp there three days; and I consider about the people, and about the priests, and of the sons of Levi I have found none there;
field: 15008016
15
8
16
and I send for Eliezer, for Ariel, for Shemaiah, and for Elnathan, and for Jarib, and for Elnathan, and for Nathan, and for Zechariah, and for Meshullam, heads, and for Joiarib, and for Elnathan, men of understanding;
field: 15008017
15
8
17
and I charge them for Iddo the head, in the place Casiphia, and put in their mouth words to speak unto Iddo, `and' his brethren the Nethinim, in the place Casiphia, to bring to us ministrants for the house of our God.
field: 15008018
15
8
18
And they bring to us, according to the good hand of our God upon us, a man of understanding, of the sons of Mahli, son of Levi, son of Israel, and Sherebiah, and his sons, and his brethren, eighteen;
field: 15008019
15
8
19
and Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah, of the sons of Merari, his brethren, and their sons, twenty;
field: 15008020
15
8
20
and from the Nethinim, whom David and the heads gave for the service of the Levites, two hundred and twenty Nethinim, all of them defined by name.
field: 15008021
15
8
21
And I proclaim there a fast, by the river Ahava, to afflict ourselves before our God, to seek from Him a right way for us, and for our infants, and for all our substance,
field: 15008022
15
8
22
for I was ashamed to ask from the king a force and horsemen to help us because of the enemy in the way, for we spake to the king, saying, `The hand of our God `is' upon all seeking Him for good, and His strength and His wrath `is' upon all forsaking Him.'
field: 15008023
15
8
23
And we fast, and seek from our God for this, and He is entreated of us.
field: 15008024
15
8
24
And I separate from the heads of the priests, twelve, even Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and with them of their brethren ten,
field: 15008025
15
8
25
and I weigh to them the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, a heave-offering of the house of our God, that the king, and his counsellors, and his heads, and all Israel -- those present -- lifted up;
field: 15008026
15
8
26
and I weigh to their hand, of silver, talents six hundred and fifty, and of vessels of silver a hundred talents, of gold a hundred talents,
field: 15008027
15
8
27
and basins of gold twenty, of a thousand drams, and two vessels of good shining brass, desirable as gold.
field: 15008028
15
8
28
And I say unto them, `Ye `are' holy to Jehovah, and the vessels `are' holy, and the silver and the gold `are' a willing-offering to Jehovah, God of your fathers;
field: 15008029
15
8
29
watch, and keep, till ye weigh before the heads of the priests, and of the Levites, and the heads of the fathers of Israel, in Jerusalem, in the chambers of the house of Jehovah.'
field: 15008030
15
8
30
And the priests and the Levites took the weight of the silver, and of the gold, and of the vessels, to bring to Jerusalem to the house of our God.
field: 15008031
15
8
31
And we journey from the river Ahava, on the twelfth of the first month, to go to Jerusalem, and the hand of our God hath been upon us, and He delivereth us from the hand of the enemy and the lier in wait by the way;
field: 15008032
15
8
32
and we come in to Jerusalem, and dwell there three days.
field: 15008033
15
8
33
And on the fourth day hath been weighed the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, in the house of our God, unto the hand of Meremoth son of Uriah the priest, and with him Eleazar son of Phinehas, and with them Jozabad son of Jeshua, and Noadiah son of Binnui, the Levites:
field: 15008034
15
8
34
by number, by weight of every one, and all the weight is written at that time.
field: 15008035
15

35
Those coming in of the captives -- sons of the removal -- have brought near burnt-offerings to the God of Israel, bullocks twelve, for all Israel, rams ninety and six, lambs seventy and seven, young he-goats for a sin-offering twelve -- the whole a burnt-offering to Jehovah;
field: 15008036
15
8
36
and they give the laws of the king to the lieutenants of the king and the governors beyond the river, and they have lifted up the people and the house of God.
field: 15009001
15

1
And at the completion of these things, drawn nigh unto me have the heads, saying, `The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not been separated from the peoples of the lands, as to their abominations, even the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite, the Ammonite, the Moabite, the Egyptian, and the Amorite,
field: 15009002
15
9
2
for they have taken of their daughters to them, and to their sons, and the holy seed have mingled themselves among the peoples of the lands, and the hand of the heads and of the seconds have been first in this trespass.'
field: 15009003
15
9
3
And at my hearing this word, I have rent my garment and my upper robe, and pluck out of the hair of my head, and of my beard, and sit astonished,
field: 15009004
15
9
4
and unto me are gathered every one trembling at the words of the God of Israel, because of the trespass of the removal, and I am sitting astonished till the present of the evening.
field: 15009005
15
9
5
And at the present of the evening I have risen from mine affliction, and at my rending my garment and my upper robe, then I bow down on my knees, and spread out my hands unto Jehovah my God,
field: 15009006
15
9
6
and say, `O my God, I have been ashamed, and have blushed to lift up, O my God, my face unto Thee, for our iniquities have increased over the head, and our guilt hath become great unto the heavens.
field: 15009007
15
9
7
`From the days of our fathers we `are' in great guilt unto this day, and in our iniquities we have been given -- we, our kings, our priests -- into the hand of the kings of the lands, with sword, with captivity, and with spoiling, and with shame of face, as `at' this day.
field: 15009008
15
9
8
`And now, as a small moment hath grace been from Jehovah our God, to leave to us an escape, and to give to us a nail in His holy place, by our God's enlightening our eyes, and by giving us a little quickening in our servitude;
field: 15009009
15
9
9
for servants we `are', and in our servitude our God hath not forsaken us, and stretcheth out unto us kindness before the kings of Persia, to give to us a quickening to lift up the house of our God, and to cause its wastes to cease, and to give to us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.
field: 15009010
15
9
10
`And now, what do we say, O our God, after this? for we have forsaken Thy commands,
field: 15009011
15
9
11
that Thou hast commanded by the hands of thy servants the prophets, saying, The land into which ye are going to possess it, `is' a land of impurity, by the impurity of the people of the lands, by their abominations with which they have filled it -- from mouth unto mouth -- by their uncleanness;
field: 15009012
15
9
12
and now, your daughters ye do not give to their sons, and their daughters ye do not take to your sons, and ye do not seek their peace, and their good -- unto the age, so that ye are strong, and have eaten the good of the land, and given possession to your sons unto the age.
field: 15009013
15
9
13
`And after all that hath come upon us for our evil works, and for our great guilt (for Thou, O our God, hast kept back of the rod from our iniquities, and hast given to us an escape like this),
field: 15009014
15
9
14
do we turn back to break Thy commands, and to join ourselves in marriage with the people of these abominations? art not Thou angry against us -- even to consumption -- till there is no remnant and escaped part?
field: 15009015
15
9
15
`O Jehovah, God of Israel, righteous `art' Thou, for we have been left an escape, as `it is' this day; lo, we `are' before Thee in our guilt, for there is none to stand before Thee concerning this.'
field: 15010001
15
10
1
And at Ezra's praying, and at his making confession, weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, there have been gathered unto him out of Israel an assembly very great -- men and women and children -- for the people have wept, multiplying weeping.
field: 15010002
15
10
2
And Shechaniah son of Jehiel, of the sons of Elam, answereth and saith to Ezra, `We -- we have trespassed against our God, and we settle strange women of the peoples of the land; and now there is hope for Israel concerning this,
field: 15010003
15
10
3
and now, let us make a covenant with our God, to cause all the women to go out, and that which is born of them, by the counsel of the Lord, and of those trembling at the command of our God, and according to law it is done;
field: 15010004
15
10
4
rise, for on thee `is' the matter, and we `are' with thee; be strong, and do.'
field: 15010005
15
10
5
And Ezra riseth, and causeth the heads of the priests, the Levites, and all Israel, to swear to do according to this word -- and they swear.
field: 15010006
15
10
6
And Ezra riseth from before the house of God, and goeth unto the chamber of Jehohanan son of Eliashib; yea, he goeth there, bread he hath not eaten, and water he hath not drunk, for he is mourning because of the trespass of the removal.
field: 15010007
15
10
7
And they cause a voice to pass over into Judah and Jerusalem, to all sons of the removal, to be gathered to Jerusalem,
field: 15010008
15
10
8
and every one who cometh not in by the third day, according to the counsel of the heads and of the elders, all his substance is devoted, and himself separated from the assembly of the removal.
field: 15010009
15
10
9
And gathered are all the men of Judah and Benjamin to Jerusalem by the third day, it `is' the ninth month, on the twentieth of the month, and all the people sit in the broad place of the house of God, trembling on account of the matter and of the showers.
field: 15010010
15
10
10
And Ezra the priest riseth, and saith unto them, `Ye -- ye have trespassed, and ye settle strange women, to add to the guilt of Israel;
field: 15010011
15
10
11
and, now, make confession to Jehovah, God of your fathers, and do His good pleasure, and be separated from the peoples of the land, and from the strange women.'
field: 15010012
15
10
12
And all the assembly answer and say `with' a great voice, `Right; according to thy word -- on us to do;
field: 15010013
15
10
13
but the people `are' many, and `it is' the time of showers, and there is no power to stand without, and the work `is' not for one day, nor for two, for we have multiplied to transgress in this thing.
field: 15010014
15
10
14
`Let, we pray thee, our heads of all the assembly stand, and all who `are' in our cities, who have settled strange wives, do come in at the times appointed, and with them the elders of city and city, and its judges, till the turning back of the fury of the wrath of our God from us, for this thing.'
field: 15010015
15
10
15
Only Jonathan son of Asahel, and Jahaziah son of Tikvah, stood against this, and Meshullam, and Shabbethai the Levite, helped them.
field: 15010016
15
10
16
And the sons of the removal do so, and Ezra the priest, `and' men, heads of the fathers, for the house of their fathers, are separated, even all of them by name, and they sit on the first day of the tenth month, to examine the matter;
field: 15010017
15
10
17
and they finish with all the men who have settled strange women unto the first day of the first month.
field: 15010018
15
10
18
And there are found of the sons of the priests that have settled strange women: of the sons of Jeshua son of Jozadak, and his brethren, Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah;
field: 15010019
15

and they give their hand to send out their wives, and, being guilty, a ram of the flock, for their guilt.

Words of Nehemiah son of Hachaliah. And it cometh to pass, in the month of Chisleu, the twentieth year, and I have been in Shushan the palace,
field: 16001002
16

2
and come in doth Hanani, one of my brethren, he and men of Judah, and I ask them concerning the Jews, the escaped part that have been left of the captivity, and concerning Jerusalem;
field: 16001003
16

3
and they say to me, `Those left, who have been left of the captivity there in the province, `are' in great evil, and in reproach, and the wall of Jerusalem is broken down, and its gates have been burnt with fire.'
field: 16001004
16

And it cometh to pass, at my hearing these words, I have sat down, and I weep and mourn `for' days, and I am fasting and praying before the God of the heavens.
field: 16001005
16

5
And I say, `I beseech thee, O Jehovah, God of the heavens, God, the great and the fearful, keeping the covenant and kindness for those loving Him, and for those keeping His commands,

16

let Thine ear be, I pray Thee, attentive, and Thine eyes open, to hearken unto the prayer of Thy servant, that I am praying before Thee to-day, by day and by night, concerning the sons of Israel Thy servants, and confessing concerning the sins of the sons of Israel, that we have sinned against Thee; yea, I and the house of my father have sinned;
field: 16001007
16

we have acted very corruptly against Thee, and have not kept the commands, and the statutes, and the judgments, that Thou didst command Moses Thy servant.

`Remember, I pray Thee, the word that Thou didst command Moses Thy servant, saying, Ye -- ye trespass -- I scatter you among peoples;

16

9
and ye have turned back unto Me, and kept My commands, and done them -- if your outcast is in the end of the heavens, thence I gather them, and have brought them in unto the place that I have chosen to cause My name to tabernacle there.

`I beseech Thee, O Lord, let, I pray Thee, Thine ear be attentive unto the prayer of Thy servant, and unto the prayer of Thy servants, those delighting to fear Thy Name; and give prosperity, I pray Thee, to Thy servant to-day, and give him for mercies before this man;' and I have been butler to the king.

And it cometh to pass, in the month of Nisan, the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king, wine `is' before him, and I lift up the wine, and give to the king, and I had not been sad before him;
field: 16002002
16
2
2
and the king saith to me, `Wherefore `is' thy face sad, and thou not sick? this is nothing except sadness of heart;' and I fear very much,
field: 16002003
16
2
3
and say to the king, `Let the king to the age live! wherefore should not my face be sad, when the city, the place of the graves of my fathers, `is' a waste, and its gates have been consumed with fire?'
field: 16002004
16

4
And the king saith to me, `For what art thou seeking?' and I pray unto the God of the heavens,
field: 16002005
16
2
5
and say to the king, `If to the king `it be' good, and if thy servant be pleasing before thee, that thou send me unto Judah, unto the city of the graves of my fathers, and I built it.'
field: 16002006
16

And the king saith to me (and the queen is sitting near him), `How long is thy journey? and when dost thou return?' and it is good before the king, and he sendeth me away, and I set to him a time.
field: 16002007
16

And I say to the king, `If to the king `it be' good, letters let be given to me for the governors beyond the River, that they let me pass over till that I come in unto Judah:

and a letter unto Asaph, keeper of the paradise that the king hath, that he give to me trees for beams `for' the gates of the palace that the house hath, and for the wall of the city, and for the house into which I enter;' and the king giveth to me, according to the good hand of my God upon me.

And I come in unto the governors beyond the River, and give to them the letters of the king; and the king sendeth with me heads of a force, and horsemen;
field: 16002010

10
and Sanballat the Horonite heareth, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, and it is evil to them -- a great evil -- that a man hath come in to seek good for the sons of Israel.

16

11
And I come in unto Jerusalem, and I am there three days,
field: 16002012
16
2
12
and I rise by night, I and a few men with me, and have not declared to a man what my God is giving unto my heart to do for Jerusalem, and there is no beast with me except the beast on which I am riding.
field: 16002013
16
2
13
And I go out through the gate of the valley by night, and unto the front of the fountain of the dragon, and unto the gate of the dunghill, and I am measuring about the walls of Jerusalem, that are broken down, and its gates consumed with fire.
field: 16002014
16

14
And I pass over unto the gate of the fountain, and unto the pool of the king, and there is no place for the beast under me to pass over,
field: 16002015
16

15
and I am going up through the brook by night, and am measuring about the wall, and turn back, and come in through the gate of the valley, and turn back.

16
And the prefects have not known whither I have gone, and what I am doing; and to the Jews, and to the priests, and to the freemen, and to the prefects, and to the rest of those doing the work, hitherto I have not declared `it';
field: 16002017
16
2
17
and I say unto them, `Ye are seeing the evil that we are in, in that Jerusalem `is' waste, and its gates have been burnt with fire; come and we build the wall of Jerusalem, and we are not any more a reproach.'
field: 16002018
16
2
18
And I declare to them the hand of my God that is good upon me, and also the words of the king that he said to me, and they say, `Let us rise, and we have built;' and they strengthen their hands for good.

And Sanballat the Horonite heareth, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, and Geshem the Arabian, and they mock at us, and despise us, and say, `What `is' this thing that ye are doing? against the king are ye rebelling?'
field: 16002020
16

And I return them word, and say to them, `The God of the heavens -- He doth give prosperity to us, and we His servants rise and have built; and to you there is no portion, and right, and memorial in Jerusalem.'

And it cometh to pass, when Sanballat hath heard that we are building the wall, that it is displeasing to him, and he is very angry and mocketh at the Jews,
field: 16004002
16

2
and saith before his brethren and the force of Samaria, yea, he saith, `What `are' the weak Jews doing? are they left to themselves? do they sacrifice? do they complete in a day? do they revive the stones out of the heaps of the rubbish? -- and they burnt!'
field: 16004003
16

And Tobiah the Ammonite `is' by him and saith, `Also, that which they are building -- if a fox doth go up, then it hath broken down their stone wall.'
field: 16004004
16

4
Hear, O our God, for we have been despised; and turn back their reproach on their own head, and give them for a spoil in a land of captivity;
field: 16004005
16
4
5
and do not cover over their iniquity, and their sin from before Thee let not be blotted out, for they have provoked to anger -- over-against those building.
field: 16004006
16
4
6
And we build the wall, and all the wall is joined -- unto its half, and the people have a heart to work.
field: 16004007
16

7
And it cometh to pass, when Sanballat hath heard, and Tobiah, and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites, that lengthening hath gone up to the walls of Jerusalem, that the breeches have begun to be stopped, then it is very displeasing to them,
field: 16004008
16
4
8
and they conspire, all of them together, to come in to fight against Jerusalem, and to do to it injury.
field: 16004009
16
4
9
And we pray unto our God, and appoint a watch against them, by day and by night, because of them.
field: 16004010
16

10
And Judah saith, `The power of the burden-bearers hath become feeble, and the rubbish `is' abundant, and we are not able to build on the wall.'
field: 16004011
16
4
11
And our adversaries say, `They do not know, nor see, till that we come in to their midst, and have slain them, and caused the work to cease.'
field: 16004012
16
4
12
And it cometh to pass, when the Jews have come who are dwelling near them, that they say to us ten times from all the places whither ye return -- `they are' against us.
field: 16004013
16
4
13
And I appoint at the lowest of the places, at the back of the wall, in the clear places, yea, I appoint the people, by their families, with their swords, their spears, and their bows.
field: 16004014
16
4
14
And I see, and rise up, and say unto the freemen, and unto the prefects, and unto the rest of the people, `Be not afraid of them; the Lord, the great and the fearful, remember ye, and fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses.'
field: 16004015
16
4
15
And it cometh to pass, when our enemies have heard that it hath been known to us, and God doth frustrate their counsel, and we turn back, all of us, unto the wall, each unto his work;
field: 16004016
16
4
16
yea, it cometh to pass, from that day, half of my servants are working in the business, and half of them are keeping hold of both the spears, the shields, and the bows, and the coats of mail; and the heads `are' behind all the house of Judah.
field: 16004017
16
4
17
The builders on the wall, and the bearers of the burden, those lading, `each' with one of his hands is working in the business, and one is laying hold of the missile.
field: 16004018
16
4
18
And the builders `are' each with his sword, girded on his loins, and building, and he who is blowing with a trumpet `is' beside me.
field: 16004019
16
4
19
And I say unto the freemen, and unto the prefects, and unto the rest of the people, `The work is abundant, and large, and we are separated on the wall, far off one from another;
field: 16004020
16
4
20
in the place that ye hear the voice of the trumpet thither ye are gathered unto us; our God doth fight for us.'
field: 16004021
16
4
21
And we are working in the business, and half of them are keeping hold of the spears, from the going up of the dawn till the coming forth of the stars.
field: 16004022
16
4
22
Also, at that time I said to the people, `Let each with his servant lodge in the midst of Jerusalem, and they have been to us by night a guard, and by day `for' the work:'
field: 16004023
16
4
23
and there are none -- I and my brethren and my servants, the men of the guard who `are' after me -- there are none of us putting off our garments, each `hath' his vessel of water.
field: 16005001
16
5
1
And there is a great cry of the people and their wives, concerning their brethren the Jews,
field: 16005002
16
5
2
yea, there are who are saying, `Our sons, and our daughters, we -- are many, and we receive corn, and eat, and live.'
field: 16005003
16
5
3
And there are who are saying, `Our fields, and our vineyards, and our houses, we are pledging, and we receive corn for the famine.'
field: 16005004
16
5
4
And there are who are saying, `We have borrowed money for the tribute of the king, `on' our fields, and our vineyards;
field: 16005005
16
5
5
and now, as the flesh of our brethren `is' our flesh, as their sons `are' our sons, and lo, we are subduing our sons and our daughters for servants, and there are of our daughters subdued, and our hand hath no might, and our fields and our vineyards `are' to others.'
field: 16005006
16
5
6
And it is very displeasing to me when I have heard their cry and these words,
field: 16005007
16
5
7
and my heart reigneth over me, and I strive with the freemen, and with the prefects, and say to them, `Usury one upon another ye are exacting;' and I set against them a great assembly,
field: 16005008
16
5
8
and say to them, `We have acquired our brethren the Jews, those sold to the nations, according to the ability that `is' in us, and ye also sell your brethren, and they have been sold to us!' and they are silent, and have not found a word.
field: 16005009
16
5
9
And I say, `Not good `is' the thing that ye are doing; in the fear of our God do ye not walk, because of the reproach of the nations our enemies?
field: 16005010
16
5
10
And also, I, my brethren, and my servants, are exacting of them silver and corn; let us leave off, I pray you, this usury.
field: 16005011
16
5
11
Give back, I pray you, to them, as to-day, their fields, their vineyards, their olive-yards, and their houses, and the hundredth `part' of the money, and of the corn, of the new wine, and of the oil, that ye are exacting of them.'
field: 16005012
16
5
12
And they say, `We give back, and of them we seek nothing; so we do as thou art saying.' And I call the priests, and cause them to swear to do according to this thing;
field: 16005013
16
5
13
also, my lap I have shaken, and I say, `Thus doth God shake out every man, who doth not perform this thing, from his house, and from his labour; yea, thus is he shaken out and empty;' and all the assembly say, `Amen,' and praise Jehovah; and the people do according to this thing.
field: 16005014
16
5
14
Also, from the day that he appointed me to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even unto the thirty and second year of Artaxerxes the king -- twelve years -- I, and my brethren, the bread of the governor have not eaten:
field: 16005015
16
5
15
the former governors who `are' before me have made themselves heavy on the people, and take of them in bread and wine, besides in silver forty shekels; also, their servants have ruled over the people -- and I have not done so, because of the fear of God.
field: 16005016
16
5
16
And also, in the work of this wall I have done mightily, even a field we have not bought, and all my servants are gathered there for the work;
field: 16005017
16
5
17
and of the Jews, and of the prefects, a hundred and fifty men, and those coming in unto us of the nations that `are' round about us, `are' at my table;
field: 16005018
16
5
18
and that which hath been prepared for one day `is' one ox, six fat sheep, also fowls have been prepared for me, and once in ten days of all wines abundantly, and with this, the bread of the governor I have not sought, for heavy is the service on this people.
field: 16005019
16

19
Remember for me, O my God, for good, all that I have done for this people.
field: 16006001
16

And it cometh to pass, when it hath been heard by Sanballat, and Tobiah, and by Geshem the Arabian, and by the rest of our enemies, that I have builded the wall, and there hath not been left in it a breach, (also, till that time the doors I had not set up in the gates,)

and they send unto me, according to this word, four times, and I return them `word' according to this word.
field: 16006005

And Sanballat sendeth unto me, according to this word, a fifth time, his servant, and an open letter in his hand;

And I send unto him, saying, `It hath not been according to these words that thou art saying, for from thine own heart thou art devising them;'

And I discern, and lo, God hath not sent him, for in the prophecy he hath spoken unto me both Tobiah and Sanballat hired him,

Also, in those days the freemen of Judah are multiplying their letters going unto Tobiah, and those of Tobiah are coming in unto them;

And they find written in the law that Jehovah commanded by the hand of Moses, that the sons of Israel dwell in booths in the feast, in the seventh month,

15
and that they proclaim and cause to pass over all their cities, (and in Jerusalem,) saying, `Go ye out to the mount, and bring leaves of the olive, and leaves of the oil tree, and leaves of the myrtle, and leaves of the palms, and leaves of thick trees, to make booths as it is written.'
field: 16008016
16

And the people go out, and bring in, and make for themselves booths, each on his roof, and in their courts, and in the courts of the house of God, and in the broad place of the water-gate, and in the broad place of the gate of Ephraim.

and that we give not our daughters to the peoples of the land, and their daughters we take not to our sons;

and the peoples of the land who are bringing in the wares and any corn on the sabbath-day to sell, we receive not of them on the sabbath, and on a holy day, and we leave the seventh year, and usury on every hand.

And we have appointed for ourselves commands, to put on ourselves the third of a shekel in a year, for the service of the house of our God,

And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them in to Jerusalem, to make the dedication even with gladness, and with thanksgivings, and with singing, `with' cymbals, psalteries, and with harps;

And I bring up the heads of Judah upon the wall, and appoint two great thanksgiving companies and processions. At the right, on the wall, to the dung-gate;

field: 16012038
16

38
And the second thanksgiving company that is going over-against, and I after it, and half of the people on the wall from beyond the tower of the furnaces and unto the broad wall,

field: 16012044
16
12
44
And certain are appointed on that day over the chambers for treasures, for heave-offerings, for first-fruits, and for tithes, to gather into them out of the fields of the cities the portions of the law for priests, and for Levites, for the joy of Judah `is' over the priests, and over the Levites, who are standing up.
field: 16012045
16
12
45
And the singers and the gatekeepers keep the charge of their God, even the charge of the cleansing -- according to the command of David `and' Solomon his son,
field: 16012046
16
12

And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, are giving the portions of the singers, and of the gatekeepers, the matter of a day in its day, and are sanctifying to the Levites, and the Levites are sanctifying to the sons of Aaron.

On that day there was read in the book of Moses, in the ears of the people, and it hath been found written in it that an Ammonite and Moabite doth not come into the assembly of God -- unto the age,
field: 16013002
16
13

because they have not come before the sons of Israel with bread and with water, and hire against them Balaam to revile them, and our God turneth the reviling into a blessing.

And it cometh to pass, at their hearing the law, that they separate all the mixed people from Israel.

And before this Eliashib the priest, appointed over chambers of the house of our God, `is' a relation of Tobiah,
field: 16013005
16
13

and he maketh for him a great chamber, and there they were formerly putting the present, the frankincense, and the vessels, and the tithe of the corn, the new wine, and the oil -- the commanded thing of the Levites, and the singers, and the gatekeepers -- and the heave-offering of the priests.
field: 16013006
16
13

And during all this I was not in Jerusalem, for in the thirty and second year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon did I come unto the king, and at the end of days I have asked of the king,
field: 16013007
16
13
7
and I come in to Jerusalem, and understand concerning the evil that Eliashib hath done for Tobiah, to make to him a chamber in the courts of the house of God,
field: 16013008
16
13
8
and it is very displeasing to me, and I cast all the vessels of the house of Tobiah without, out of the chamber,
field: 16013009
16
13
9
and I speak, and they cleanse the chambers, and I bring back thither the vessels of the house of God with the present and the frankincense.
field: 16013010
16
13
10
And I know that the portions of the Levites have not been given, and they flee each to his field -- the Levites and the singers, doing the work.
field: 16013011
16
13
11
And I strive with the prefects, and say, `Wherefore hath the house of God been forsaken?' and I gather them, and set them on their station;
field: 16013012
16
13
12
and all Judah have brought in the tithe of the corn, and of the new wine, and of the oil, to the treasuries.
field: 16013013
16
13
13
And I appoint treasurers over the treasuries, Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and Pedaiah of the Levites; and by their hand `is' Hanan son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah, for stedfast they have been reckoned, and on them `it is' to give a portion to their brethren.
field: 16013014
16

14
Be mindful of me, O my God, for this, and do not blot out my kind acts that I have done, for the house of my God, and for its charges.

15
In those days I have seen in Judah those treading wine-vats on sabbath, and bringing in the sheaves, and lading on the asses, and also, wine, grapes, and figs, and every burden, yea, they are bringing in to Jerusalem on the sabbath-day, and I testify in the day of their selling provision.
field: 16013016
16
13
16
And the Tyrians have dwelt in it, bringing in fish, and every ware, and selling on sabbath to the sons of Judah and in Jerusalem.
field: 16013017
16
13
17
And I strive with the freemen of Judah, and say to them, `What `is' this evil thing that ye are doing, and polluting the sabbath-day?
field: 16013018
16
13
18
Thus did not your fathers do? and our God bringeth in on us all this evil, and on this city, and ye are adding fierceness on Israel, to pollute the sabbath.'
field: 16013019
16
13
19
And it cometh to pass, when the gates of Jerusalem have been dark before the sabbath, that I speak, and the doors are shut, and I say, that they do not open them till after the sabbath; and of my servants I have stationed at the gates; there doth not come in a burden on the sabbath-day.
field: 16013020
16
13
20
And they lodge -- the merchants and sellers of all ware -- at the outside of Jerusalem, once or twice,
field: 16013021
16
13
21
and I testify against them, and say unto them, `Wherefore are ye lodging over-against the wall? if ye repeat `it', a hand I put forth upon you;' from that time they have not come in on the sabbath.
field: 16013022
16
13
22
And I say to the Levites, that they be cleansed, and, coming in, keeping the gates, to sanctify the sabbath-day. Also, this, remember for me, O my God, and have pity on me, according to the abundance of Thy kindness.
field: 16013023

Also, in those days, I have seen the Jews `who' have settled women of Ashdod, of Ammon, of Moab.
field: 16013024
16
13
24
And of their sons, half are speaking Ashdoditish -- and are not knowing to speak Jewish -- and according to the language of people and people.
field: 16013025
16
13
25
And I strive with them, and declare them vile, and smite certain of them, and pluck off their hair, and cause them to swear by God, `Ye do not give your daughters to their sons, nor do ye take of their daughters to your sons, and to yourselves.

`By these did not Solomon king of Israel sin? and among the many nations there was no king like him, and beloved by his God he was, and God maketh him king over all Israel -- even him did the strange women cause to sin.

And `one' of the sons of Joiada son of Eliashib the high priest, `is' son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite, and I cause him to flee from off me.

And it cometh to pass, in the days of Ahasuerus -- he `is' Ahasuerus who is reigning from Hodu even unto Cush, seven and twenty and a hundred provinces --
field: 17001002
17

in those days, at the sitting of the king Ahasuerus on the throne of his kingdom, that `is' in Shushan the palace,
field: 17001003
17

in the third year of his reign, he hath made a banquet to all his heads and his servants; of the force of Persia and Media, the chiefs and heads of the provinces `are' before him,

in his shewing the wealth of the honour of his kingdom, and the glory of the beauty of his greatness, many days -- eighty and a hundred days.
field: 17001005
17

And at the fulness of these days hath the king made to all the people who are found in Shushan the palace, from great even unto small, a banquet, seven days, in the court of the garden of the house of the king --

17

white linen, white cotton, and blue, fastened with cords of fine linen and purple on rings of silver, and pillars of marble, couches of gold, and of silver, on a pavement of smaragdus, and white marble, and mother-of-pearl, and black marble --

and the giving of drink in vessels of gold, and the vessels `are' divers vessels, and the royal wine `is' abundant, as a memorial of the king.
field: 17001008
17

And the drinking `is' according to law, none is pressing, for so hath the king appointed for every chief one of his house, to do according to the pleasure of man and man.

Also Vashti the queen hath made a banquet for women, in the royal house that the king Ahasuerus hath.
field: 17001010
17
1
10
On the seventh day, as the heart of the king is glad with wine, he hath said to Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven eunuchs who are ministering in the presence of the king Ahasuerus,
field: 17001011
17
1
11
to bring in Vashti the queen before the king, with a royal crown, to shew the peoples and the heads her beauty, for she `is' of good appearance,
field: 17001012
17
1
12
and the queen Vashti refuseth to come in at the word of the king that `is' by the hand of the eunuchs, and the king is very wroth, and his fury hath burned in him.
field: 17001013
17
1
13
And the king saith to wise men, knowing the times -- for so `is' the word of the king before all knowing law and judgment,
field: 17001014
17
1
14
and he who is near unto him `is' Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, Memucan, seven heads of Persia and Media seeing the face of the king, who are sitting first in the kingdom --
field: 17001015
17
1
15
`According to law, what -- to do with queen Vashti, because that she hath not done the saying of the king Ahasuerus by the hand of the eunuchs?'
field: 17001016
17
1
16
And Memucan saith before the king and the heads, `Not against the king by himself hath Vashti the queen done perversely, but against all the heads, and against all the peoples that `are' in all provinces of the king Ahasuerus;
field: 17001017
17
1
17
for go forth doth the word of the queen unto all the women, to render their husbands contemptible in their eyes, in their saying, The king Ahasuerus said to bring in Vashti the queen before him, and she did not come;
field: 17001018
17
1
18
yea, this day do princesses of Persia and Media, who have heard the word of the queen, say `so' to all heads of the king, even according to the sufficiency of contempt and wrath.
field: 17001019
17
1
19
`If to the king `it be' good, there goeth forth a royal word from before him, and it is written with the laws of Persia and Media, and doth not pass away, that Vashti doth not come in before the king Ahasuerus, and her royalty doth the king give to her companion who `is' better than she;
field: 17001020
17

20
and the sentence of the king that he maketh hath been heard in all his kingdom -- for it `is' great -- and all the wives give honour to their husbands, from great even unto small.'
field: 17001021
17

21
And the thing is good in the eyes of the king, and of the princes, and the king doth according to the word of Memucan,
field: 17001022
17
1
22
and sendeth letters unto all provinces of the king, unto province and province according to its writing, and unto people and people according to its tongue, for every man being head in his own house -- and speaking according to the language of his people.

After these things, at the ceasing of the fury of the king Ahasuerus, he hath remembered Vashti, and that which she did, and that which hath been decreed concerning her;
field: 17002002
17
2
2
and servants of the king, his ministers, say, `Let them seek for the king young women, virgins, of good appearance,
field: 17002003
17

3
and the king doth appoint inspectors in all provinces of his kingdom, and they gather every young woman -- virgin, of good appearance -- unto Shushan the palace, unto the house of the women, unto the hand of Hege eunuch of the king, keeper of the women, and to give their purifications,
field: 17002004
17

and the young woman who is good in the eyes of the king doth reign instead of Vashti;' and the thing is good in the eyes of the king, and he doth so.

A man, a Jew, there hath been in Shushan the palace, and his name `is' Mordecai son of Jair, son of Shimei, son of Kish, a Benjamite --

who had been removed from Jerusalem with the removal that was removed with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon removed --

and he is supporting Hadassah -- she `is' Esther -- daughter of his uncle, for she hath neither father nor mother, and the young woman `is' of fair form, and of good appearance, and at the death of her father and her mother hath Mordecai taken her to him for a daughter.

17

8
And it cometh to pass, in the word of the king, even his law, being heard, and in many young women being gathered unto Shushan the palace, unto the hand of Hegai, that Esther is taken unto the house of the king, unto the hand of Hegai, keeper of the women,
field: 17002009
17

and the young woman is good in his eyes, and she receiveth kindness before him, and he hasteneth her purifications and her portions -- to give to her, and the seven young women who are provided -- to give to her, from the house of the king, and he changeth her and her young women to a good `place in' the house of the women.
field: 17002010
17

10
Esther hath not declared her people, and her kindred, for Mordecai hath laid a charge on her that she doth not declare `it';

17

11
and during every day Mordecai is walking up and down before the court of the house of the women to know the welfare of Esther, and what is done with her.

17

12
And in the drawing nigh of the turn of each young woman to come in unto the king Ahasuerus, at the end of there being to her -- according to the law of the women -- twelve months, for so they fulfil the days of their purifications; six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with spices, and with the purifications of women,
field: 17002013
17
2
13
and with this the young woman hath come in unto the king, all that she saith is given to her, to go in with her, out of the house of the women, unto the house of the king;
field: 17002014
17
2
14
in the evening she hath gone in, and in the morning she hath turned back unto the second house of the women, unto the hand of Shaashgaz eunuch of the king, keeper of the concubines; she cometh not in any more unto the king except the king hath delighted in her, and she hath been called by name.
field: 17002015
17
2
15
And in the drawing nigh of the turn of Esther -- daughter of Abihail, uncle of Mordecai, whom he had taken to him for a daughter -- to come in unto the king, she hath not sought a thing except that which Hegai eunuch of the king, keeper of the women, saith, and Esther is receiving grace in the eyes of all seeing her.
field: 17002016
17

16
And Esther is taken unto the king Ahasuerus, unto his royal house, in the tenth month -- it `is' the month of Tebeth -- in the seventh year of his reign,

17
2
17
and the king loveth Esther above all the women, and she receiveth grace and kindness before him above all the virgins, and he setteth a royal crown on her head, and causeth her to reign instead of Vashti,

17
2
18
and the king maketh a great banquet to all his heads and his servants -- the banquet of Esther -- and a release to the provinces hath made, and giveth gifts as a memorial of the king.

And in the virgins being gathered a second time, then Mordecai is sitting in the gate of the king;
field: 17002020
17
2
20
Esther is not declaring her kindred and her people, as Mordecai hath laid a charge upon her, and the saying of Mordecai Esther is doing as when she was truly with him.
field: 17002021
17
2
21
In those days, when Mordecai is sitting in the gate of the king, hath Bigthan been wroth, and Teresh, (two of the eunuchs of the king, the keepers of the threshold,) and they seek to put forth a hand on king Ahasuerus,
field: 17002022
17

22
and the thing is known to Mordecai, and he declareth `it' to Esther the queen, and Esther speaketh to the king in the name of Mordecai,

and the thing is sought out, and found, and they are hanged both of them on a tree, and it is written in the book of the Chronicles before the king.

After these things hath the king Ahasuerus exalted Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and lifteth him up, and setteth his throne above all the heads who `are' with him,
field: 17003002
17
3
2
and all servants of the king, who `are' in the gate of the king, are bowing and doing obeisance to Haman, for so hath the king commanded for him; and Mordecai doth not bow nor do obeisance.

And the servants of the king, who `are' in the gate of the king, say to Mordecai, `Wherefore `art' thou transgressing the command of the king?'

17
3
4
And it cometh to pass, in their speaking unto him, day by day, and he hath not hearkened unto them, that they declare `it' to Haman, to see whether the words of Mordecai do stand, for he hath declared to them that he `is' a Jew.
field: 17003005

5
And Haman seeth that Mordecai is not bowing and doing obeisance to him, and Haman is full of fury,

6
and it is contemptible in his eyes to put forth a hand on Mordecai by himself, for they have declared to him the people of Mordecai, and Haman seeketh to destroy all the Jews who `are' in all the kingdom of Ahasuerus -- the people of Mordecai.

In the first month -- it `is' the month of Nisan -- in the twelfth year of the king Ahasuerus, hath one caused to fall Pur (that `is' the lot) before Haman, from day to day, and from month to month, `to' the twelfth, it `is' the month of Adar.

And Haman saith to the king Ahasuerus, `There is one people scattered and separated among the peoples, in all provinces of thy kingdom, and their laws `are' diverse from all people, and the laws of the king they are not doing, and for the king it is not profitable to suffer them;

if to the king `it be' good, let it be written to destroy them, and ten thousand talents of silver I weigh into the hands of those doing the work, to bring `it' in unto the treasuries of the king.'

And scribes of the king are called, on the first month, on the thirteenth day of it, and it is written according to all that Haman hath commanded, unto lieutenants of the king, and unto the governors who `are' over province and province, and unto the heads of people and people, province and province, according to its writing, and people and people according to its tongue, in the name of the king Ahasuerus it hath been written and sealed with the signet of the king,

a copy of the writing to be made law in every province and province is revealed to all the peoples, to be ready for this day.

The runners have gone forth, hastened by the word of the king, and the law hath been given in Shushan the palace, and the king and Haman have sat down to drink, and the city Shushan is perplexed.

And Mordecai hath known all that hath been done, and Mordecai rendeth his garments, and putteth on sackcloth and ashes, and goeth forth into the midst of the city and crieth -- a cry loud and bitter,

17

and he cometh in unto the front of the gate of the king, but none is to come in unto the gate of the king with a sackcloth-garment.

And in every province and province, the place where the word of the king, even his law, is coming, a great mourning have the Jews, and fasting, and weeping, and lamenting: sackcloth and ashes are spread for many.

And young women of Esther come in and her eunuchs, and declare `it' to her, and the queen is exceedingly pained, and sendeth garments to clothe Mordecai, and to turn aside his sackcloth from off him, and he hath not received `them'.

And Esther calleth to Hatach, of the eunuchs of the king, whom he hath stationed before her, and giveth him a charge for Mordecai, to know what this `is', and wherefore this `is'.

And Hatach goeth out unto Mordecai, unto a broad place of the city, that `is' before the gate of the king,

and the copy of the writing of the law that had been given in Shushan to destroy them he hath given to him, to shew Esther, and to declare `it' to her, and to lay a charge on her to go in unto the king, to make supplication to him, and to seek from before him, for her people.

And Hatach cometh in and declareth to Esther the words of Mordecai,

`All servants of the king, and people of the provinces of the king, do know that any man and woman, who cometh in unto the king, unto the inner court, who is not called -- one law `of' his `is' to put `them' to death, apart from him to whom the king holdeth out the golden sceptre, then he hath lived; and I -- I have not been called to come in unto the king these thirty days.'

but if thou keep entirely silent at this time, respite and deliverance remaineth to the Jews from another place, and thou and the house of thy fathers are destroyed; and who knoweth whether for a time like this thou hast come to the kingdom?'

and it cometh to pass, at the king's seeing Esther the queen standing in the court, she hath received grace in his eyes, and the king holdeth out to Esther the golden sceptre that `is' in his hand, and Esther draweth near, and toucheth the top of the sceptre.

And the king saith to her, `What -- to thee Esther, O queen? and what thy request? unto the half of the kingdom -- and it is given to thee.'

And Esther saith, `If unto the king `it be' good, the king doth come in, and Haman, to-day, unto the banquet that I have made for him;'
field: 17005005

and the king saith, `Haste ye Haman -- to do the word of Esther;' and the king cometh in, and Haman, unto the banquet that Esther hath made.

And the king saith to Esther, during the banquet of wine, `What `is' thy petition? and it is given to thee; and what thy request? unto the half of the kingdom -- and it is done.'

if I have found grace in the eyes of the king, and if unto the king `it be' good, to give my petition, and to perform my request, the king doth come, and Haman, unto the banquet that I make for them, and to-morrow I do according to the word of the king.'

And Haman goeth forth on that day rejoicing and glad in heart, and at Haman's seeing Mordecai in the gate of the king, and he hath not risen nor moved for him, then is Haman full of fury against Mordecai.

And Haman forceth himself, and cometh in unto his house, and sendeth, and bringeth in his friends, and Zeresh his wife,

and Haman recounteth to them the glory of his wealth, and the abundance of his sons, and all that with which the king made him great, and with which he lifted him up above the heads and servants of the king.

And Haman saith, `Yea, Esther the queen brought none in with the king, unto the feast that she made, except myself, and also for to-morrow I am called to her, with the king,

and all this is not profitable to me, during all the time that I am seeing Mordecai the Jew sitting in the gate of the king.'

And Zeresh his wife saith to him, and all his friends, `Let them prepare a tree, in height fifty cubits, and in the morning speak to the king, and they hang Mordecai on it, and go thou in with the king unto the banquet rejoicing;' and the thing is good before Haman, and he prepareth the tree.

and it is found written that Mordecai had declared concerning Bigthana and Teresh, two of the eunuchs of the king, of the keepers of the threshold, who sought to put forth a hand on king Ahasuerus.

And the king saith, `Who `is' in the court?' -- and Haman hath come in to the outer court of the house of the king, to say to the king to hang Mordecai on the tree that he had prepared for him --

And Haman cometh in, and the king saith to him, `What -- to do with the man in whose honour the king hath delighted?' And Haman saith in his heart, `To whom doth the king delight to do honour more than myself?'
field: 17006007
17

And Haman saith unto the king, `The man in whose honour the king hath delighted,

let them bring in royal clothing that the king hath put on himself, and a horse on which the king hath ridden, and that the royal crown be put on his head,

and to give the clothing and the horse into the hand of a man of the heads of the king, the chiefs, and they have clothed the man in whose honour the king hath delighted, and caused him to ride on the horse in a broad place of the city, and called before him: Thus it is done to the man in whose honour the king hath delighted.'

And the king saith to Haman, `Haste, take the clothing and the horse, as thou hast spoken, and do so to Mordecai the Jew, who is sitting in the gate of the king; there doth not fall a thing of all that thou hast spoken.'

And Mordecai turneth back unto the gate of the king, and Haman hath been hastened unto his house mourning, and with covered head,

and Haman recounteth to Zeresh his wife, and to all his friends, all that hath met him, and his wise men say to him, and Zeresh his wife, `If Mordecai `is' of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou art not able for him, but dost certainly fall before him.'

They are yet speaking with him, and eunuchs of the king have come, and haste to bring in Haman unto the banquet that Esther hath made.

And the king cometh in, and Haman, to drink with Esther the queen,

And Esther the queen answereth and saith, `If I have found grace in thine eyes, O king, and if to the king `it be' good, let my life be given to me at my petition, and my people at my request;

for we have been sold, I and my people, to cut off, to slay, and to destroy; and if for men-servants and for maid-servants we had been sold I had kept silent -- but the adversity is not equal to the loss of the king.'

And the king Ahasuerus saith, yea, he saith to Esther the queen, `Who `is' he -- this one? and where `is' this one? -- he whose heart hath filled him to do so?'

And the king hath risen, in his fury, from the banquet of wine, unto the garden of the house, and Haman hath remained to seek for his life from Esther the queen, for he hath seen that evil hath been determined against him by the king.

And the king hath turned back out of the garden of the house unto the house of the banquet of wine, and Haman is falling on the couch on which Esther `is', and the king saith, `Also to subdue the queen with me in the house?' the word hath gone out from the mouth of the king, and the face of Haman they have covered.

And Harbonah, one of the eunuchs, saith before the king, `Also lo, the tree that Haman made for Mordecai, who spake good for the king, is standing in the house of Haman, in height fifty cubits;' and the king saith, `Hang him upon it.'

On that day hath the king Ahasuerus given to Esther the queen the house of Haman, adversary of the Jews, and Mordecai hath come in before the king, for Esther hath declared what he `is' to her,

And Esther addeth, and speaketh before the king, and falleth before his feet, and weepeth, and maketh supplication to him, to cause the evil of Haman the Agagite to pass away, and his device that he had devised against the Jews;

and the king holdeth out to Esther the golden sceptre, and Esther riseth, and standeth before the king,

and saith, `If to the king `it be' good, and if I have found grace before him, and the thing hath been right before the king, and I `be' good in his eyes, let it be written to bring back the letters -- a device of Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite -- that he wrote to destroy the Jews who `are' in all provinces of the king,

for how do I endure when I have looked on the evil that doth find my people? and how do I endure when I have looked on the destruction of my kindred?'

And the king Ahasuerus saith to Esther the queen, and to Mordecai the Jew, `Lo, the house of Haman I have given to Esther, and him they have hanged on the tree, because that he put forth his hand on the Jews,

And the scribes of the king are called, at that time, in the third month -- it `is' the month of Sivan -- in the three and twentieth of it, and it is written, according to all that Mordecai hath commanded, unto the Jews, and unto the lieutenants, and the governors, and the heads of the provinces, that `are' from Hodu even unto Cush, seven and twenty and a hundred provinces -- province and province according to its writing, and people and people according to its tongue, and unto the Jews according to their writing, and according to their tongue.

And he writeth in the name of the king Ahasuerus, and sealeth with the signet of the king, and sendeth letters by the hand of the runners with horses, riders of the dromedary, the mules, the young mares,

In one day, in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, on the thirteenth of the twelfth month -- it `is' the month of Adar --

a copy of the writing to be made law in every province and province is revealed to all the peoples, and for the Jews being ready at this day to be avenged of their enemies.

And Mordecai went out from before the king, in royal clothing of blue and white, and a great crown of gold, and a garment of fine linen and purple, and the city of Shushan hath rejoiced and been glad;

And in the twelfth month -- it `is' the month of Adar -- on the thirteenth day of it, in which the word of the king, even his law, hath come to be done, in the day that the enemies of the Jews had hoped to rule over them, and it is turned that the Jews rule over those hating them --

ten sons of Haman son of Hammedatha, adversary of the Jews, they have slain, and on the prey they have not put forth their hand.

On that day hath come the number of the slain in Shushan the palace before the king,

and the king saith to Esther the queen, `In Shushan the palace have the Jews slain and destroyed five hundred men, and the ten sons of Haman; in the rest of the provinces of the king what have they done? and what `is' thy petition? and it is given to thee; and what thy request again? and it is done.'
field: 17009013
17

13
And Esther saith, `If to the king `it be' good, let it be given also to-morrow, to the Jews who `are' in Shushan, to do according to the law of to-day; and the ten sons of Haman they hang on the tree.'
field: 17009014

And the king saith -- `to be done so;' and a law is given in Shushan, and the ten sons of Haman they have hanged.

15
And the Jews who `are' in Shushan are assembled also on the fourteenth day of the month of Adar, and they slay in Shushan three hundred men, and on the prey they have not put forth their hand.
field: 17009016
17
9
16
And the rest of the Jews, who `are' in the provinces of the king, have been assembled, even to stand for their life, and to rest from their enemies, and to slay among those hating them five and seventy thousand, and on the prey they have not put forth their hand;
field: 17009017

17
on the thirteenth day of the month of Adar, even to rest on the fourteenth of it, and to make it a day of banquet and of joy.

And the Jews who `are' in Shushan have been assembled, on the thirteenth day of it, and on the fourteenth of it, even to rest on the fifteenth of it, and to make it a day of banquet and of joy.

Therefore the Jews of the villages, who are dwelling in cities of the villages, are making the fourteenth day of the month of Adar -- joy and banquet, and a good day, and of sending portions one to another.

And Mordecai writeth these things, and sendeth letters unto all the Jews who `are' in all provinces of the king Ahasuerus, who are near and who are far off,

21
to establish on them, to be keeping the fourteenth day of the month of Adar, and the fifteenth day of it, in every year and year,

as days on which the Jews have rested from their enemies, and the month that hath been turned to them from sorrow to joy, and from mourning to a good day, to make them days of banquet and of joy, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts to the needy.
field: 17009023

9
23
And the Jews have received that which they had begun to do, and that which Mordecai hath written unto them,
field: 17009024
17
9
24
because Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, adversary of all the Jews, had devised concerning the Jews to destroy them, and had caused to fall Pur -- that `is' the lot -- to crush them and to destroy them;

17

25
and in her coming in before the king, he said with the letter, `Let his evil device that he devised against the Jews turn back upon his own head,' and they have hanged him and his sons on the tree,
field: 17009026
17
9
26
therefore they have called these days Purim -- by the name of the lot -- therefore, because of all the words of this letter, and what they have seen concerning this, and what hath come unto them,
field: 17009027
17
9
27
the Jews have established and received upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all those joined unto them, and it doth not pass away, to be keeping these two days according to their writing, and according to their season, in every year and year;
field: 17009028
17

and these days are remembered and kept in every generation and generation, family and family, province and province, and city and city, and these days of Purim do not pass away from the midst of the Jews, and their memorial is not ended from their seed.

And Esther the queen, daughter of Abihail, writeth, and Mordecai the Jew, with all might, to establish this second letter of Purim,

30
and he sendeth letters unto all the Jews, unto the seven and twenty and a hundred provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus -- words of peace and truth --

31
to establish these days of Purim, in their seasons, as Mordecai the Jew hath established on them, and Esther the queen, and as they had established on themselves, and on their seed -- matters of the fastings, and of their cry.

and it cometh to pass, when they have gone round the days of the banquet, that Job doth send and sanctify them, and hath risen early in the morning, and caused to ascend burnt-offerings -- the number of them all -- for Job said, `Perhaps my sons have sinned, yet blessed God in their heart.'

And Jehovah saith unto the Adversary, `Hast thou set thy heart unto My servant Job because there is none like him in the land, a man perfect and upright, fearing God and turning aside from evil? and still he is keeping hold on his integrity, and thou dost move Me against him to swallow him up for nought!'
field: 18002004
18

4
And the Adversary answereth Jehovah and saith, `A skin for a skin, and all that a man hath he doth give for his life.
field: 18002005
18
2
5
Yet, put forth, I pray Thee, Thy hand, and strike unto his bone and unto his flesh -- if not: unto Thy face he doth bless Thee!'
field: 18002006
18
2
6
And Jehovah saith unto the Adversary, `Lo, he `is' in thy hand; only his life take care of.'
field: 18002007
18
2
7
And the Adversary goeth forth from the presence of Jehovah, and smiteth Job with a sore ulcer from the sole of his foot unto his crown.
field: 18002008
18
2
8
And he taketh to him a potsherd to scrape himself with it, and he is sitting in the midst of the ashes.
field: 18002009
18
2
9
And his wife saith to him, `Still thou art keeping hold on thine integrity: bless God and die.'
field: 18002010
18
2
10
And he saith unto her, `As one of the foolish women speaketh, thou speakest; yea, the good we receive from God, and the evil we do not receive.' In all this Job hath not sinned with his lips.
field: 18002011
18
2
11
And three of the friends of Job hear of all this evil that hath come upon him, and they come in each from his place -- Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite -- and they are met together to come in to bemoan him, and to comfort him;
field: 18002012
18
2
12
and they lift up their eyes from afar and have not discerned him, and they lift up their voice and weep, and rend each his robe, and sprinkle dust on their heads -- heavenward.
field: 18002013
18
2
13
And they sit with him on the earth seven days and seven nights, and there is none speaking unto him a word when they have seen that the pain hath been very great.
field: 18003001
18

1
After this hath Job opened his mouth, and revileth his day.
field: 18003002
18
3
2
And Job answereth and saith: --
field: 18003003
18
3
3
Let the day perish in which I am born, And the night that hath said: `A man-child hath been conceived.'
field: 18003004
18
3
4
That day -- let it be darkness, Let not God require it from above, Nor let light shine upon it.
field: 18003005
18
3
5
Let darkness and death-shade redeem it, Let a cloud tabernacle upon it, Let them terrify it as the most bitter of days.
field: 18003006
18
3
6
That night -- let thick darkness take it, Let it not be united to days of the year, Into the number of months let it not come.
field: 18003007
18
3
7
Lo! that night -- let it be gloomy, Let no singing come into it.
field: 18003008
18
3
8
Let the cursers of day mark it, Who are ready to wake up Leviathan.
field: 18003009
18
3
9
Let the stars of its twilight be dark, Let it wait for light, and there is none, And let it not look on the eyelids of the dawn.
field: 18003010
18
3
10
Because it hath not shut the doors Of the womb that was mine! And hide misery from mine eyes.
field: 18003011
18
3
11
Why from the womb do I not die? From the belly I have come forth and gasp!
field: 18003012
18
3
12
Wherefore have knees been before me? And what `are' breasts, that I suck?
field: 18003013
18
3
13
For now, I have lain down, and am quiet, I have slept -- then there is rest to me,
field: 18003014
18
3
14
With kings and counsellors of earth, These building wastes for themselves.
field: 18003015
18
3
15
Or with princes -- they have gold, They are filling their houses `with' silver.
field: 18003016
18
3
16
(Or as a hidden abortion I am not, As infants -- they have not seen light.)
field: 18003017
18
3
17
There the wicked have ceased troubling, And there rest do the wearied in power.
field: 18003018
18
3
18
Together prisoners have been at ease, They have not heard the voice of an exactor,
field: 18003019
18
3
19
Small and great `are' there the same. And a servant `is' free from his lord.
field: 18003020
18
3
20
Why giveth He to the miserable light, and life to the bitter soul?
field: 18003021
18
3
21
Who are waiting for death, and it is not, And they seek it above hid treasures.
field: 18003022
18
3
22
Who are glad -- unto joy, They rejoice when they find a grave.
field: 18003023
18
3
23
To a man whose way hath been hidden, And whom God doth shut up?
field: 18003024
18
3
24
For before my food, my sighing cometh, And poured out as waters `are' my roarings.
field: 18003025
18
3
25
For a fear I feared and it meeteth me, And what I was afraid of doth come to me.
field: 18003026
18
3
26
I was not safe -- nor was I quiet -- Nor was I at rest -- and trouble cometh!
field: 18004001
18
4
1
And Eliphaz the Temanite answereth and saith: --
field: 18004002
18
4
2
Hath one tried a word with thee? -- Thou art weary! And to keep in words who is able?
field: 18004003
18
4
3
Lo, thou hast instructed many, And feeble hands thou makest strong.
field: 18004004
18
4
4
The stumbling one do thy words raise up, And bowing knees thou dost strengthen.
field: 18004005
18
4
5
But now, it cometh in unto thee, And thou art weary; It striketh unto thee, and thou art troubled.
field: 18004006
18
4
6
Is not thy reverence thy confidence? Thy hope -- the perfection of thy ways?
field: 18004007
18
4
7
Remember, I pray thee, Who, being innocent, hath perished? And where have the upright been cut off?
field: 18004008
18
4
8
As I have seen -- ploughers of iniquity, And sowers of misery, reap it!
field: 18004009
18
4
9
From the breath of God they perish, And from the spirit of His anger consumed.
field: 18004010
18
4
10
The roaring of a lion, And the voice of a fierce lion, And teeth of young lions have been broken.
field: 18004011
18
4
11
An old lion is perishing without prey, And the whelps of the lioness do separate.
field: 18004012
18
4
12
And unto me a thing is secretly brought, And receive doth mine ear a little of it.
field: 18004013
18
4
13
In thoughts from visions of the night, In the falling of deep sleep on men,
field: 18004014
18
4
14
Fear hath met me, and trembling, And the multitude of my bones caused to fear.
field: 18004015
18
4
15
And a spirit before my face doth pass, Stand up doth the hair of my flesh;
field: 18004016
18
4
16
It standeth, and I discern not its aspect, A similitude `is' over-against mine eyes, Silence! and a voice I hear:
field: 18004017
18
4
17
`Is mortal man than God more righteous? Than his Maker is a man cleaner?
field: 18004018
18
4
18
Lo, in His servants He putteth no credence, Nor in His messengers setteth praise.'
field: 18004019
18
4
19
Also -- the inhabitants of houses of clay, (Whose foundation `is' in the dust, They bruise them before a moth.)
field: 18004020
18
4
20
From morning to evening are beaten down, Without any regarding, for ever they perish.
field: 18004021
18
4
21
Hath not their excellency been removed with them? They die, and not in wisdom!
field: 18005001
18
5
1
Pray, call, is there any to answer thee? And unto which of the holy ones dost thou turn?
field: 18005002
18
5
2
For provocation slayeth the perverse, And envy putteth to death the simple,
field: 18005003
18
5
3
I -- I have seen the perverse taking root, And I mark his habitation straightway,
field: 18005004
18
5
4
Far are his sons from safety, And they are bruised in the gate, And there is no deliverer.
field: 18005005
18
5
5
Whose harvest the hungry doth eat, And even from the thorns taketh it, And the designing swallowed their wealth.
field: 18005006
18
5
6
For sorrow cometh not forth from the dust, Nor from the ground springeth up misery.
field: 18005007
18
5
7
For man to misery is born, And the sparks go high to fly.
field: 18005008
18
5
8
Yet I -- I inquire for God, And for God I give my word,
field: 18005009
18
5
9
Doing great things, and there is no searching. Wonderful, till there is no numbering.
field: 18005010
18
5
10
Who is giving rain on the face of the land, And is sending waters on the out-places.
field: 18005011
18
5
11
To set the low on a high place, And the mourners have been high `in' safety.
field: 18005012
18
5
12
Making void thoughts of the subtile, And their hands do not execute wisdom.
field: 18005013
18
5
13
Capturing the wise in their subtilty, And the counsel of wrestling ones was hastened,
field: 18005014
18
5
14
By day they meet darkness, And as night -- they grope at noon.
field: 18005015
18
5
15
And He saveth the wasted from their mouth, And from a strong hand the needy,
field: 18005016
18
5
16
And there is hope to the poor, And perverseness hath shut her mouth.
field: 18005017
18
5
17
Lo, the happiness of mortal man, God doth reprove him: And the chastisement of the Mighty despise not,
field: 18005018
18
5
18
For He doth pain, and He bindeth up, He smiteth, and His hands heal.
field: 18005019
18
5
19
In six distresses He delivereth thee, And in seven evil striketh not on thee.
field: 18005020
18
5
20
In famine He hath redeemed thee from death, And in battle from the hands of the sword.
field: 18005021
18
5
21
When the tongue scourgeth thou art hid, And thou art not afraid of destruction, When it cometh.
field: 18005022
18
5
22
At destruction and at hunger thou mockest, And of the beast of the earth, Thou art not afraid.
field: 18005023
18
5
23
(For with sons of the field `is' thy covenant, And the beast of the field Hath been at peace with thee.)
field: 18005024
18
5
24
And thou hast known that thy tent `is' peace, And inspected thy habitation, and errest not,
field: 18005025
18
5
25
And hast known that numerous `is' Thy seed, And thine offspring as the herb of the earth;
field: 18005026
18
5
26
Thou comest in full age unto the grave, As the going up of a stalk in its season.
field: 18005027
18
5
27
Lo, this -- we searched it out -- it `is' right, hearken; And thou, know for thyself!
field: 18006001
18
6
1
And Job answereth and saith: --
field: 18006002
18
6
2
O that my provocation were thoroughly weighed, And my calamity in balances They would lift up together!
field: 18006003
18
6
3
For now, than the sands of the sea it is heavier, Therefore my words have been rash.
field: 18006004
18
6
4
For arrows of the Mighty `are' with me, Whose poison is drinking up my spirit. Terrors of God array themselves `for' me!
field: 18006005
18
6
5
Brayeth a wild ass over tender grass? Loweth an ox over his provender?
field: 18006006
18
6
6
Eaten is an insipid thing without salt? Is there sense in the drivel of dreams?
field: 18006007
18
6
7
My soul is refusing to touch! They `are' as my sickening food.
field: 18006008
18
6
8
O that my request may come, That God may grant my hope!
field: 18006009
18
6
9
That God would please -- and bruise me, Loose His hand and cut me off!
field: 18006010
18
6
10
And yet it is my comfort, (And I exult in pain -- He doth not spare,) That I have not hidden The sayings of the Holy One.
field: 18006011
18
6
11
What `is' my power that I should hope? And what mine end That I should prolong my life?
field: 18006012
18
6
12
Is my strength the strength of stones? Is my flesh brazen?
field: 18006013
18
6
13
Is not my help with me, And substance driven from me?
field: 18006014
18
6
14
To a despiser of his friends `is' shame, And the fear of the Mighty he forsaketh.
field: 18006015
18
6
15
My brethren have deceived as a brook, As a stream of brooks they pass away.
field: 18006016
18
6
16
That are black because of ice, By them doth snow hide itself.
field: 18006017
18
6
17
By the time they are warm they have been cut off, By its being hot they have been Extinguished from their place.
field: 18006018
18
6
18
Turn aside do the paths of their way, They ascend into emptiness, and are lost.
field: 18006019
18
6
19
Passengers of Tema looked expectingly, Travellers of Sheba hoped for them.
field: 18006020
18
6
20
They were ashamed that one hath trusted, They have come unto it and are confounded.
field: 18006021
18
6
21
Surely now ye have become the same! Ye see a downfall, and are afraid.
field: 18006022
18
6
22
Is it because I said, Give to me? And, By your power bribe for me?
field: 18006023
18
6
23
And, Deliver me from the hand of an adversary? And, From the hand of terrible ones ransom me?
field: 18006024
18
6
24
Shew me, and I -- I keep silent, And what I have erred, let me understand.
field: 18006025
18
6
25
How powerful have been upright sayings, And what doth reproof from you reprove?
field: 18006026
18
6
26
For reproof -- do you reckon words? And for wind -- sayings of the desperate.
field: 18006027
18
6
27
Anger on the fatherless ye cause to fall, And are strange to your friend.
field: 18006028
18
6
28
And, now, please, look upon me, Even to your face do I lie?
field: 18006029
18
6
29
Turn back, I pray you, let it not be perverseness, Yea, turn back again -- my righteousness `is' in it.
field: 18006030
18
6
30
Is there in my tongue perverseness? Discerneth not my palate desirable things?
field: 18007001
18
7
1
Is there not a warfare to man on earth? And as the days of an hireling his days?
field: 18007002
18
7
2
As a servant desireth the shadow, And as a hireling expecteth his wage,
field: 18007003
18
7
3
So I have been caused to inherit months of vanity, And nights of misery they numbered to me.
field: 18007004
18
7
4
If I lay down then I said, `When do I rise!' And evening hath been measured, And I have been full of tossings till dawn.
field: 18007005
18
7
5
Clothed hath been my flesh `with' worms, And a clod of dust, My skin hath been shrivelled and is loathsome,
field: 18007006
18
7
6
My days swifter than a weaving machine, And they are consumed without hope.
field: 18007007
18
7
7
Remember Thou that my life `is' a breath, Mine eye turneth not back to see good.
field: 18007008
18
7
8
The eye of my beholder beholdeth me not. Thine eyes `are' upon me -- and I am not.
field: 18007009
18
7
9
Consumed hath been a cloud, and it goeth, So he who is going down to Sheol cometh not up.
field: 18007010
18
7
10
He turneth not again to his house, Nor doth his place discern him again.
field: 18007011
18
7
11
Also I -- I withhold not my mouth -- I speak in the distress of my spirit, I talk in the bitterness of my soul.
field: 18007012
18
7
12
A sea-`monster' am I, or a dragon, That thou settest over me a guard?
field: 18007013
18
7
13
When I said, `My bed doth comfort me,' He taketh away in my talking my couch.
field: 18007014
18
7
14
And thou hast affrighted me with dreams, And from visions thou terrifiest me,
field: 18007015
18
7
15
And my soul chooseth strangling, Death rather than my bones.
field: 18007016
18
7
16
I have wasted away -- not to the age do I live. Cease from me, for my days `are' vanity.
field: 18007017
18
7
17
What `is' man that Thou dost magnify him? And that Thou settest unto him Thy heart?
field: 18007018
18
7
18
And inspectest him in the mornings, In the evenings dost try him?
field: 18007019
18
7
19
How long dost Thou not look from me? Thou dost not desist till I swallow my spittle.
field: 18007020
18
7
20
I have sinned, what do I to Thee, O watcher of man? Why hast Thou set me for a mark to Thee, And I am for a burden to myself -- and what?
field: 18007021
18
7
21
Thou dost not take away my transgression, And cause to pass away mine iniquity, Because now, for dust I lie down: And Thou hast sought me -- and I am not!
field: 18008001
18
8
1
And Bildad the Shuhite answereth and saith: --
field: 18008002
18
8
2
Till when dost thou speak these things? And a strong wind -- sayings of thy mouth?
field: 18008003
18
8
3
Doth God pervert judgment? And doth the Mighty One pervert justice?
field: 18008004
18
8
4
If thy sons have sinned before Him, And He doth send them away, By the hand of their transgression,
field: 18008005
18
8
5
If thou dost seek early unto God, And unto the Mighty makest supplication,
field: 18008006
18
8
6
If pure and upright thou `art', Surely now He waketh for thee, And hath completed The habitation of thy righteousness.
field: 18008007
18
8
7
And thy beginning hath been small, And thy latter end is very great.
field: 18008008
18
8
8
For, ask I pray thee of a former generation, And prepare to a search of their fathers,
field: 18008009
18
8
9
(For of yesterday we `are', and we know not, For a shadow `are' our days on earth.)
field: 18008010
18
8
10
Do they not shew thee -- speak to thee, And from their heart bring forth words?
field: 18008011
18
8
11
`Doth a rush wise without mire? A reed increase without water?
field: 18008012
18
8
12
While it `is' in its budding -- uncropt, Even before any herb it withereth.
field: 18008013
18
8
13
So `are' the paths of all forgetting God, And the hope of the profane doth perish,
field: 18008014
18
8
14
Whose confidence is loathsome, And the house of a spider his trust.
field: 18008015
18
8
15
He leaneth on his house -- and it standeth not: He taketh hold on it -- and it abideth not.
field: 18008016
18
8
16
Green he `is' before the sun, And over his garden his branch goeth out.
field: 18008017
18
8
17
By a heap his roots are wrapped, A house of stones he looketh for.
field: 18008018
18
8
18
If `one' doth destroy him from his place, Then it hath feigned concerning him, I have not seen thee!
field: 18008019
18
8
19
Lo, this `is' the joy of his way, And from the dust others spring up.'
field: 18008020
18
8
20
Lo, God doth not reject the perfect, Nor taketh hold on the hand of evil doers.
field: 18008021
18
8
21
While he filleth with laughter thy mouth, And thy lips with shouting,
field: 18008022
18
8
22
Those hating thee do put on shame, And the tent of the wicked is not!
field: 18009001
18
9
1
And Job answereth and saith: --
field: 18009002
18
9
2
Truly I have known that `it is' so, And what -- is man righteous with God?
field: 18009003
18
9
3
If he delight to strive with Him -- He doth not answer him one of a thousand.
field: 18009004
18
9
4
Wise in heart and strong in power -- Who hath hardened toward Him and is at peace?
field: 18009005
18
9
5
Who is removing mountains, And they have not known, Who hath overturned them in His anger.
field: 18009006
18
9
6
Who is shaking earth from its place, And its pillars move themselves.
field: 18009007
18
9

Who is speaking to the sun, and it riseth not, And the stars He sealeth up.

8
Stretching out the heavens by Himself, And treading on the heights of the sea,
field: 18009009
18
9
9
Making Osh, Kesil, and Kimah, And the inner chambers of the south.
field: 18009010
18
9
10
Doing great things till there is no searching, And wonderful, till there is no numbering.
field: 18009011
18
9
11
Lo, He goeth over by me, and I see not, And He passeth on, and I attend not to it.
field: 18009012
18
9
12
Lo, He snatches away, who bringeth it back? Who saith unto Him, `What dost Thou?'
field: 18009013
18
9
13
God doth not turn back His anger, Under Him bowed have proud helpers.
field: 18009014
18
9
14
How much less do I -- I answer Him? Choose out my words with Him?
field: 18009015
18
9
15
Whom, though I were righteous, I answer not, For my judgment I make supplication.
field: 18009016
18
9
16
Though I had called and He answereth me, I do not believe that He giveth ear `to' my voice.
field: 18009017
18
9
17
Because with a tempest He bruiseth me, And hath multiplied my wounds for nought.
field: 18009018
18
9
18
He permitteth me not to refresh my spirit, But filleth me with bitter things.
field: 18009019
18
9
19
If of power, lo, the Strong One; And if of judgment -- who doth convene me?
field: 18009020
18
9
20
If I be righteous, Mine mouth doth declare me wicked, Perfect I am! -- it declareth me perverse.
field: 18009021
18
9
21
Perfect I am! -- I know not my soul, I despise my life.
field: 18009022
18
9
22
It is the same thing, therefore I said, `The perfect and the wicked He is consuming.'
field: 18009023
18
9
23
If a scourge doth put to death suddenly, At the trial of the innocent He laugheth.
field: 18009024
18
9
24
Earth hath been given Into the hand of the wicked one. The face of its judges he covereth, If not -- where, who `is' he?
field: 18009025
18
9
25
My days have been swifter than a runner, They have fled, they have not seen good,
field: 18009026
18
9
26
They have passed on with ships of reed, As an eagle darteth on food.
field: 18009027
18
9
27
Though I say, `I forget my talking, I forsake my corner, and I brighten up!'
field: 18009028
18
9
28
I have been afraid of all my griefs, I have known that Thou dost not acquit me.
field: 18009029
18
9
29
I -- I am become wicked; why `is' this? `In' vain I labour.
field: 18009030
18
9
30
If I have washed myself with snow-water, And purified with soap my hands,
field: 18009031
18
9
31
Then in corruption Thou dost dip me, And my garments have abominated me.
field: 18009032
18
9
32
But if a man like myself -- I answer him, We come together into judgment.
field: 18009033
18
9
33
If there were between us an umpire, He doth place his hand on us both.
field: 18009034
18
9
34
He doth turn aside from off me his rod, And His terror doth not make me afraid,
field: 18009035
18
9
35
I speak, and do not fear Him, But I am not right with myself.
field: 18010001
18
10
1
My soul hath been weary of my life, I leave off my talking to myself, I speak in the bitterness of my soul.
field: 18010002
18
10
2
I say unto God, `Do not condemn me, Let me know why Thou dost strive `with' me.
field: 18010003
18
10
3
Is it good for Thee that Thou dost oppress? That Thou despisest the labour of Thy hands, And on the counsel of the wicked hast shone?
field: 18010004
18
10
4
Eyes of flesh hast Thou? As man seeth -- seest Thou?
field: 18010005
18
10
5
As the days of man `are' Thy days? Thy years as the days of a man?
field: 18010006
18
10
6
That Thou inquirest for mine iniquity, And for my sin seekest?
field: 18010007
18
10
7
For Thou knowest that I am not wicked, And there is no deliverer from Thy hand.
field: 18010008
18
10
8
Thy hands have taken pains about me, And they make me together round about, And Thou swallowest me up!
field: 18010009
18
10
9
Remember, I pray Thee, That as clay Thou hast made me, And unto dust Thou dost bring me back.
field: 18010010
18
10
10
Dost Thou not as milk pour me out? And as cheese curdle me?
field: 18010011
18
10
11
Skin and flesh Thou dost put on me, And with bones and sinews dost fence me.
field: 18010012
18
10
12
Life and kindness Thou hast done with me. And Thy inspection hath preserved my spirit.
field: 18010013
18
10
13
And these Thou hast laid up in Thy heart, I have known that this `is' with Thee.
field: 18010014
18
10
14
If I sinned, then Thou hast observed me, And from mine iniquity dost not acquit me,
field: 18010015
18
10
15
If I have done wickedly -- wo to me, And righteously -- I lift not up my head, Full of shame -- then see my affliction,
field: 18010016
18
10
16
And it riseth -- as a lion Thou huntest me. And Thou turnest back -- Thou shewest Thyself wonderful in me.
field: 18010017
18
10
17
Thou renewest Thy witnesses against me, And dost multiply Thine anger with me, Changes and warfare `are' with me.
field: 18010018
18
10
18
And why from the womb Hast Thou brought me forth? I expire, and the eye doth not see me.
field: 18010019
18
10
19
As I had not been, I am, From the belly to the grave I am brought,
field: 18010020
18
10
20
Are not my days few? Cease then, and put from me, And I brighten up a little,
field: 18010021
18
10
21
Before I go, and return not, Unto a land of darkness and death-shade,
field: 18010022
18
10
22
A land of obscurity as thick darkness, Death-shade -- and no order, And the shining `is' as thick darkness.'
field: 18011001
18
11
1
And Zophar the Naamathite answereth and saith: --
field: 18011002
18
11
2
Is a multitude of words not answered? And is a man of lips justified?
field: 18011003
18
11
3
Thy devices make men keep silent, Thou scornest, and none is causing blushing!
field: 18011004
18
11
4
And thou sayest, `Pure `is' my discourse, And clean I have been in Thine eyes.'
field: 18011005
18
11
5
And yet, O that God had spoken! And doth open His lips with thee.
field: 18011006
18
11
6
And declare to thee secrets of wisdom, For counsel hath foldings. And know thou that God forgetteth for thee, `Some' of thine iniquity.
field: 18011007
18
11
7
By searching dost thou find out God? Unto perfection find out the Mighty One?
field: 18011008
18
11
8
Heights of the heavens! -- what dost thou? Deeper than Sheol! -- what knowest thou?
field: 18011009
18
11
9
Longer than earth `is' its measure, And broader than the sea.
field: 18011010
18
11
10
If He pass on, and shut up, and assemble, Who then dost reverse it?
field: 18011011
18
11
11
For he hath known men of vanity, And He seeth iniquity, And one doth not consider `it'!
field: 18011012
18
11
12
And empty man is bold, And the colt of a wild ass man is born.
field: 18011013
18
11
13
If thou -- thou hast prepared thy heart, And hast spread out unto Him thy hands,
field: 18011014
18
11
14
If iniquity `is' in thy hand, put it far off, And let not perverseness dwell in thy tents.
field: 18011015
18
11
15
For then thou liftest up thy face from blemish, And thou hast been firm, and fearest not.
field: 18011016
18
11
16
For thou dost forget misery, As waters passed away thou rememberest.
field: 18011017
18
11
17
And above the noon doth age rise, Thou fliest -- as the morning thou art.
field: 18011018
18
11
18
And thou hast trusted because their is hope, And searched -- in confidence thou liest down,
field: 18011019
18
11
19
And thou hast rested, And none is causing trembling, And many have entreated thy face;
field: 18011020
18
11
20
And the eyes of the wicked are consumed, And refuge hath perished from them, And their hope `is' a breathing out of soul!
field: 18012001
18
12
1
And Job answereth and saith: --
field: 18012002
18
12
2
Truly -- ye `are' the people, And with you doth wisdom die.
field: 18012003
18
12
3
I also have a heart like you, I am not fallen more than you, And with whom is there not like these?
field: 18012004
18
12
4
A laughter to his friend I am: `He calleth to God, and He answereth him,' A laughter `is' the perfect righteous one.
field: 18012005
18
12
5
A torch -- despised in the thoughts of the secure Is prepared for those sliding with the feet.
field: 18012006
18
12
6
At peace are the tents of spoilers, And those provoking God have confidence, He into whose hand God hath brought.
field: 18012007
18
12
7
And yet, ask, I pray thee, `One of' the beasts, and it doth shew thee, And a fowl of the heavens, And it doth declare to thee.
field: 18012008
18
12
8
Or talk to the earth, and it sheweth thee, And fishes of the sea recount to thee:
field: 18012009
18
12
9
`Who hath not known in all these, That the hand of Jehovah hath done this?
field: 18012010
18
12
10
In whose hand `is' the breath of every living thing, And the spirit of all flesh of man.'
field: 18012011
18
12
11
Doth not the ear try words? And the palate taste food for itself?
field: 18012012
18
12
12
With the very aged `is' wisdom, And `with' length of days understanding.
field: 18012013
18
12
13
With Him `are' wisdom and might, To him `are' counsel and understanding.
field: 18012014
18
12
14
Lo, He breaketh down, and it is not built up, He shutteth against a man, And it is not opened.
field: 18012015
18
12
15
Lo, He keepeth in the waters, and they are dried up, And he sendeth them forth, And they overturn the land.
field: 18012016
18
12
16
With Him `are' strength and wisdom, His the deceived and deceiver.
field: 18012017
18
12
17
Causing counsellors to go away a spoil, And judges He maketh foolish.
field: 18012018
18
12
18
The bands of kings He hath opened, And He bindeth a girdle on their loins.
field: 18012019
18
12
19
Causing ministers to go away a spoil And strong ones He overthroweth.
field: 18012020
18
12
20
Turning aside the lip of the stedfast, And the reason of the aged He taketh away.
field: 18012021
18
12
21
Pouring contempt upon princes, And the girdle of the mighty He made feeble.
field: 18012022
18
12
22
Removing deep things out of darkness, And He bringeth out to light death-shade.
field: 18012023
18
12
23
Magnifying the nations, and He destroyeth them, Spreading out the nations, and He quieteth them.
field: 18012024
18
12
24
Turning aside the heart Of the heads of the people of the land, And he causeth them to wander In vacancy -- no way!
field: 18012025
18
12
25
They feel darkness, and not light, He causeth them to wander as a drunkard.
field: 18013001
18
13
1
Lo, all -- hath mine eye seen, Heard hath mine ear, and it attendeth to it.
field: 18013002
18
13
2
According to your knowledge I have known -- also I. I am not fallen more than you.
field: 18013003
18
13
3
Yet I for the Mighty One do speak, And to argue for God I delight.
field: 18013004
18
13
4
And yet, ye `are' forgers of falsehood, Physicians of nought -- all of you,
field: 18013005
18
13
5
O that ye would keep perfectly silent, And it would be to you for wisdom.
field: 18013006
18
13
6
Hear, I pray you, my argument, And to the pleadings of my lips attend,
field: 18013007
18
13
7
For God do ye speak perverseness? And for Him do ye speak deceit?
field: 18013008
18
13
8
His face do ye accept, if for God ye strive?
field: 18013009
18
13
9
Is `it' good that He doth search you, If, as one mocketh at a man, ye mock at Him?
field: 18013010
18
13
10
He doth surely reprove you, if in secret ye accept faces.
field: 18013011
18
13
11
Doth not His excellency terrify you? And His dread fall upon you?
field: 18013012
18
13
12
Your remembrances `are' similes of ashes, For high places of clay your heights.
field: 18013013
18
13
13
Keep silent from me, and I speak, And pass over me doth what?
field: 18013014
18
13
14
Wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth? And my soul put in my hand?
field: 18013015
18
13
15
Lo, He doth slay me -- I wait not! Only, my ways unto His face I argue.
field: 18013016
18
13
16
Also -- He `is' to me for salvation, For the profane cometh not before Him.
field: 18013017
18
13
17
Hear ye diligently my word, And my declaration with your ears.
field: 18013018
18
13
18
Lo, I pray you, I have set in order the cause, I have known that I am righteous.
field: 18013019
18
13
19
Who `is' he that doth strive with me? For now I keep silent and gasp.
field: 18013020
18
13
20
Only two things, O God, do with me: Then from Thy face I am not hidden.
field: 18013021
18
13
21
Thy hand put far off from me, And Thy terror let not terrify me.
field: 18013022
18
13
22
And call Thou, and I -- I answer, Or -- I speak, and answer Thou me.
field: 18013023
18
13
23
How many iniquities and sins have I? My transgression and my sin let me know.
field: 18013024
18
13
24
Why dost Thou hide Thy face? And reckonest me for an enemy to Thee?
field: 18013025
18
13
25
A leaf driven away dost Thou terrify? And the dry stubble dost Thou pursue?
field: 18013026
18
13
26
For Thou writest against me bitter things, And causest me to possess iniquities of my youth:
field: 18013027
18
13
27
And puttest in the stocks my feet, And observest all my paths, On the roots of my feet Thou settest a print,
field: 18013028
18
13
28
And he, as a rotten thing, weareth away, As a garment hath a moth consumed him.
field: 18014001
18
14
1
Man, born of woman! Of few days, and full of trouble!
field: 18014002
18
14
2
As a flower he hath gone forth, and is cut off, And he fleeth as a shadow and standeth not.
field: 18014003
18
14
3
Also -- on this Thou hast opened Thine eyes, And dost bring me into judgment with Thee.
field: 18014004
18
14
4
Who giveth a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.
field: 18014005
18
14
5
If determined are his days, The number of his months `are' with Thee, His limit Thou hast made, And he passeth not over;
field: 18014006
18
14
6
Look away from off him that he may cease, Till he enjoy as an hireling his day.
field: 18014007
18
14
7
For there is of a tree hope, if it be cut down, That again it doth change, That its tender branch doth not cease.
field: 18014008
18
14
8
If its root becometh old in the earth, And its stem doth die in the dust,
field: 18014009
18
14
9
From the fragrance of water it doth flourish, And hath made a crop as a plant.
field: 18014010
18
14
10
And a man dieth, and becometh weak, And man expireth, and where `is' he?
field: 18014011
18
14
11
Waters have gone away from a sea, And a river becometh waste and dry.
field: 18014012
18
14
12
And man hath lain down, and riseth not, Till the wearing out of the heavens they awake not, Nor are roused from their sleep.
field: 18014013
18
14
13
O that in Sheol Thou wouldst conceal me, Hide me till the turning of Thine anger, Set for me a limit, and remember me.
field: 18014014
18
14
14
If a man dieth -- doth he revive? All days of my warfare I wait, till my change come.
field: 18014015
18
14
15
Thou dost call, and I -- I answer Thee; To the work of Thy hands Thou hast desire.
field: 18014016
18
14
16
But now, my steps Thou numberest, Thou dost not watch over my sin.
field: 18014017
18
14
17
Sealed up in a bag `is' my transgression, And Thou sewest up mine iniquity.
field: 18014018
18
14
18
And yet, a falling mountain wasteth away, And a rock is removed from its place.
field: 18014019
18
14
19
Stones have waters worn away, Their outpourings wash away the dust of earth, And the hope of man Thou hast destroyed.
field: 18014020
18
14
20
Thou prevailest `over' him for ever, and he goeth, He is changing his countenance, And Thou sendest him away.
field: 18014021
18
14
21
Honoured are his sons, and he knoweth not; And they are little, and he attendeth not to them.
field: 18014022
18
14
22
Only -- his flesh for him is pained, And his soul for him doth mourn.'
field: 18015001
18
15
1
And Eliphaz the Temanite answereth and saith: --
field: 18015002
18
15
2
Doth a wise man answer `with' vain knowledge? And fill `with' an east wind his belly?
field: 18015003
18
15
3
To reason with a word not useful? And speeches -- no profit in them?
field: 18015004
18
15
4
Yea, thou dost make reverence void, And dost diminish meditation before God.
field: 18015005
18
15
5
For thy mouth teacheth thine iniquity, And thou chooseth the tongue of the subtile.
field: 18015006
18
15
6
Thy mouth declareth thee wicked, and not I, And thy lips testify against thee.
field: 18015007
18
15
7
The first man art thou born? And before the heights wast thou formed?
field: 18015008
18
15
8
Of the secret counsel of God dost thou hear? And withdrawest thou unto thee wisdom?
field: 18015009
18
15
9
What hast thou known, and we know not? Understandest thou -- and it is not with us?
field: 18015010
18
15
10
Both the gray-headed And the very aged `are' among us -- Greater than thy father `in' days.
field: 18015011
18
15
11
Too few for thee are the comforts of God? And a gentle word `is' with thee,
field: 18015012
18
15
12
What -- doth thine heart take thee away? And what -- are thine eyes high?
field: 18015013
18
15
13
For thou turnest against God thy spirit? And hast brought out words from thy mouth:
field: 18015014
18
15
14
What `is' man that he is pure, And that he is righteous, one born of woman?
field: 18015015
18
15
15
Lo, in His holy ones He putteth no credence, And the heavens have not been pure in His eyes.
field: 18015016
18
15
16
Also -- surely abominable and filthy Is man drinking as water perverseness.
field: 18015017
18
15
17
I shew thee -- hearken to me -- And this I have seen and declare:
field: 18015018
18
15
18
Which the wise declare -- And have not hid -- from their fathers.
field: 18015019
18
15
19
To them alone was the land given, And a stranger passed not over into their midst:
field: 18015020
18

`All days of the wicked he is paining himself, And few years have been laid up for the terrible one.
field: 18015021
18
15
21
A fearful voice `is' in his ears, In peace doth a destroyer come to him.
field: 18015022
18
15
22
He believeth not to return from darkness, And watched `is' he for the sword.
field: 18015023
18
15
23
He is wandering for bread -- `Where `is' it?' He hath known that ready at his hand Is a day of darkness.
field: 18015024
18
15
24
Terrify him do adversity and distress, They prevail over him As a king ready for a boaster.
field: 18015025
18
15
25
For he stretched out against God his hand, And against the Mighty he maketh himself mighty.
field: 18015026
18
15
26
He runneth unto Him with a neck, With thick bosses of his shields.
field: 18015027
18
15
27
For he hath covered his face with his fat, And maketh vigour over `his' confidence.
field: 18015028
18
15
28
And he inhabiteth cities cut off, houses not dwelt in, That have been ready to become heaps.
field: 18015029
18
15
29
He is not rich, nor doth his wealth rise, Nor doth he stretch out on earth their continuance.
field: 18015030
18
15
30
He turneth not aside from darkness, His tender branch doth a flame dry up, And he turneth aside at the breath of His mouth!
field: 18015031
18
15
31
Let him not put credence in vanity, He hath been deceived, For vanity is his recompence.
field: 18015032
18
15
32
Not in his day is it completed, And his bending branch is not green.
field: 18015033
18
15
33
He shaketh off as a vine his unripe fruit, And casteth off as an olive his blossom.
field: 18015034
18
15
34
For the company of the profane `is' gloomy, And fire hath consumed tents of bribery.
field: 18015035
18
15
35
To conceive misery, and to bear iniquity, Even their heart doth prepare deceit.
field: 18016001
18
16
1
And Job answereth and saith: --
field: 18016002
18
16
2
I have heard many such things, Miserable comforters `are' ye all.
field: 18016003
18
16
3
Is there an end to words of wind? Or what doth embolden thee that thou answerest?
field: 18016004
18
16
4
I also, like you, might speak, If your soul were in my soul's stead. I might join against you with words, And nod at you with my head.
field: 18016005
18
16
5
I might harden you with my mouth, And the moving of my lips might be sparing.
field: 18016006
18
16
6
If I speak, my pain is not restrained, And I cease -- what goeth from me?
field: 18016007
18
16
7
Only, now, it hath wearied me; Thou hast desolated all my company,
field: 18016008
18
16
8
And Thou dost loathe me, For a witness it hath been, And rise up against me doth my failure, In my face it testifieth.
field: 18016009
18
16
9
His anger hath torn, and he hateth me, He hath gnashed at me with his teeth, My adversary sharpeneth his eyes for me.
field: 18016010
18
16
10
They have gaped on me with their mouth, In reproach they have smitten my cheeks, Together against me they set themselves.
field: 18016011
18
16
11
God shutteth me up unto the perverse, And to the hands of the wicked turneth me over.
field: 18016012
18
16
12
At ease I have been, and he breaketh me, And he hath laid hold on my neck, And he breaketh me in pieces, And he raiseth me to him for a mark.
field: 18016013
18
16
13
Go round against me do his archers. He splitteth my reins, and spareth not, He poureth out to the earth my gall.
field: 18016014
18
16
14
He breaketh me -- breach upon breach, He runneth upon me as a mighty one.
field: 18016015
18
16
15
Sackcloth I have sewed on my skin, And have rolled in the dust my horn.
field: 18016016
18
16
16
My face is foul with weeping, And on mine eyelids `is' death-shade.
field: 18016017
18
16
17
Not for violence in my hands, And my prayer `is' pure.
field: 18016018
18
16
18
O earth, do not thou cover my blood! And let there not be a place for my cry.
field: 18016019
18
16
19
Also, now, lo, in the heavens `is' my witness, And my testifier in the high places.
field: 18016020
18
16
20
My interpreter `is' my friend, Unto God hath mine eye dropped:
field: 18016021
18
16
21
And he reasoneth for a man with God, And a son of man for his friend.
field: 18016022
18
16
22
When a few years do come, Then a path I return not do I go.
field: 18017001
18
17
1
My spirit hath been destroyed, My days extinguished -- graves `are' for me.
field: 18017002
18
17
2
If not -- mockeries `are' with me. And in their provocations mine eye lodgeth.
field: 18017003
18
17
3
Place, I pray Thee, my pledge with Thee; Who is he that striketh hand with me?
field: 18017004
18
17
4
For their heart Thou hast hidden From understanding, Therefore Thou dost not exalt them.
field: 18017005
18
17
5
For a portion he sheweth friendship, And the eyes of his sons are consumed.
field: 18017006
18
17
6
And he set me up for a proverb of the peoples, And a wonder before them I am.
field: 18017007
18
17
7
And dim from sorrow is mine eye, And my members as a shadow all of them.
field: 18017008
18
17
8
Astonished are the upright at this, And the innocent against the profane Stirreth himself up.
field: 18017009
18
17
9
And the righteous layeth hold `on' his way, And the clean of hands addeth strength, And -- dumb are they all.
field: 18017010
18
17
10
Return, and come in, I pray you, And I find not among you a wise man.
field: 18017011
18
17
11
My days have passed by, My devices have been broken off, The possessions of my heart!
field: 18017012
18
17
12
Night for day they appoint, Light `is' near because of darkness.
field: 18017013
18
17
13
If I wait -- Sheol `is' my house, In darkness I have spread out my couch.
field: 18017014
18
17
14
To corruption I have called: -- `Thou `art' my father.' `My mother' and `my sister' -- to the worm.
field: 18017015
18
17
15
And where `is' now my hope? Yea, my hope, who doth behold it?
field: 18017016
18
17
16
`To' the parts of Sheol ye go down, If together on the dust we may rest.
field: 18018001
18
18
1
And Bildad the Shuhite answereth and saith: --
field: 18018002
18
18
2
When do ye set an end to words? Consider ye, and afterwards do we speak.
field: 18018003
18
18
3
Wherefore have we been reckoned as cattle? We have been defiled in your eyes!
field: 18018004
18
18
4
(He is tearing himself in his anger.) For thy sake is earth forsaken? And removed is a rock from its place?
field: 18018005
18
18
5
Also, the light of the wicked is extinguished. And there doth not shine a spark of his fire.
field: 18018006
18
18
6
The light hath been dark in his tent, And his lamp over him is extinguished.
field: 18018007
18
18
7
Straitened are the steps of his strength, And cast him down doth his own counsel.
field: 18018008
18
18
8
For he is sent into a net by his own feet, And on a snare he doth walk habitually.
field: 18018009
18
18
9
Seize on the heel doth a gin, Prevail over him do the designing.
field: 18018010
18
18
10
Hidden in the earth is his cord, And his trap on the path.
field: 18018011
18
18
11
Round about terrified him have terrors, And they have scattered him -- at his feet.
field: 18018012
18
18
12
Hungry is his sorrow, And calamity is ready at his side.
field: 18018013
18
18
13
It consumeth the parts of his skin, Consume his parts doth death's first-born.
field: 18018014
18
18
14
Drawn from his tent is his confidence, And it causeth him to step to the king of terrors.
field: 18018015
18
18
15
It dwelleth in his tent -- out of his provender, Scattered over his habitation is sulphur.
field: 18018016
18
18
16
From beneath his roots are dried up, And from above cut off is his crop.
field: 18018017
18
18
17
His memorial hath perished from the land, And he hath no name on the street.
field: 18018018
18
18
18
They thrust him from light unto darkness, And from the habitable earth cast him out.
field: 18018019
18
18
19
He hath no continuator, Nor successor among his people, And none is remaining in his dwellings.
field: 18018020
18
18
20
At this day westerns have been astonished And easterns have taken fright.
field: 18018021
18
18
21
Only these `are' tabernacles of the perverse, And this the place God hath not known.
field: 18019001
18
19
1
And Job answereth and saith: --
field: 18019002
18
19
2
Till when do ye afflict my soul, And bruise me with words?
field: 18019003
18
19
3
These ten times ye put me to shame, ye blush not. Ye make yourselves strange to me --
field: 18019004
18
19
4
And also -- truly, I have erred, With me doth my error remain.
field: 18019005
18
19
5
If, truly, over me ye magnify yourselves, And decide against me my reproach;
field: 18019006
18
19
6
Know now, that God turned me upside down, And His net against me hath set round,
field: 18019007
18
19
7
Lo, I cry out -- violence, and am not answered, I cry aloud, and there is no judgment.
field: 18019008
18
19
8
My way He hedged up, and I pass not over, And on my paths darkness He placeth.
field: 18019009
18
19
9
Mine honour from off me He hath stripped, And He turneth the crown from my head.
field: 18019010
18
19
10
He breaketh me down round about, and I go, And removeth like a tree my hope.
field: 18019011
18
19
11
And He kindleth against me His anger, And reckoneth me to Him as His adversaries.
field: 18019012
18
19
12
Come in do His troops together, And they raise up against me their way, And encamp round about my tent.
field: 18019013
18
19
13
My brethren from me He hath put far off, And mine acquaintances surely Have been estranged from me.
field: 18019014
18
19
14
Ceased have my neighbours And my familiar friends have forgotten me,
field: 18019015
18
19
15
Sojourners of my house and my maids, For a stranger reckon me: An alien I have been in their eyes.
field: 18019016
18
19
16
To my servant I have called, And he doth not answer, With my mouth I make supplication to him.
field: 18019017
18
19
17
My spirit is strange to my wife, And my favours to the sons of my `mother's' womb.
field: 18019018
18
19
18
Also sucklings have despised me, I rise, and they speak against me.
field: 18019019
18
19
19
Abominate me do all the men of my counsel, And those I have loved, Have been turned against me.
field: 18019020
18
19
20
To my skin and to my flesh Cleaved hath my bone, And I deliver myself with the skin of my teeth.
field: 18019021
18
19
21
Pity me, pity me, ye my friends, For the hand of God hath stricken against me.
field: 18019022
18
19
22
Why do you pursue me as God? And with my flesh are not satisfied?
field: 18019023
18
19
23
Who doth grant now, That my words may be written? Who doth grant that in a book they may be graven?
field: 18019024
18
19
24
With a pen of iron and lead -- For ever in a rock they may be hewn.
field: 18019025
18
19
25
That -- I have known my Redeemer, The Living and the Last, For the dust he doth rise.
field: 18019026
18
19
26
And after my skin hath compassed this `body', Then from my flesh I see God:
field: 18019027
18
19
27
Whom I -- I see on my side, And mine eyes have beheld, and not a stranger, Consumed have been my reins in my bosom.
field: 18019028
18
19
28
But ye say, `Why do we pursue after him?' And the root of the matter hath been found in me.
field: 18019029
18
19
29
Be ye afraid because of the sword, For furious `are' the punishments of the sword, That ye may know that `there is' a judgment.
field: 18020001
18
20
1
And Zophar the Naamathite answereth and saith: --
field: 18020002
18
20
2
Therefore my thoughts cause me to answer, And because of my sensations in me.
field: 18020003
18
20
3
The chastisement of my shame I hear, And the spirit of mine understanding Doth cause me to answer:
field: 18020004
18
20
4
This hast thou known from antiquity? Since the placing of man on earth?
field: 18020005
18
20
5
That the singing of the wicked `is' short, And the joy of the profane for a moment,
field: 18020006
18
20
6
Though his excellency go up to the heavens, And his head against a cloud he strike --
field: 18020007
18
20
7
As his own dung for ever he doth perish, His beholders say: `Where `is' he?'
field: 18020008
18
20
8
As a dream he fleeth, and they find him not, And he is driven away as a vision of the night,
field: 18020009
18
20
9
The eye hath not seen him, and addeth not. And not again doth his place behold him.
field: 18020010
18
20
10
His sons do the poor oppress, And his hands give back his wealth.
field: 18020011
18
20
11
His bones have been full of his youth, And with him on the dust it lieth down.
field: 18020012
18
20
12
Though he doth sweeten evil in his mouth, Doth hide it under his tongue,
field: 18020013
18
20
13
Hath pity on it, and doth not forsake it, And keep it back in the midst of his palate,
field: 18020014
18
20
14
His food in his bowels is turned, The bitterness of asps `is' in his heart.
field: 18020015
18
20
15
Wealth he hath swallowed, and doth vomit it. From his belly God driveth it out.
field: 18020016
18
20
16
Gall of asps he sucketh, Slay him doth the tongue of a viper.
field: 18020017
18
20
17
He looketh not on rivulets, Flowing of brooks of honey and butter.
field: 18020018
18
20
18
He is giving back `what' he laboured for, And doth not consume `it'; As a bulwark `is' his exchange, and he exults not.
field: 18020019
18
20
19
For he oppressed -- he forsook the poor, A house he hath taken violently away, And he doth not build it.
field: 18020020
18
20
20
For he hath not known ease in his belly. With his desirable thing he delivereth not himself.
field: 18020021
18
20
21
There is not a remnant to his food, Therefore his good doth not stay.
field: 18020022
18
20
22
In the fulness of his sufficiency he is straitened. Every perverse hand doth meet him.
field: 18020023
18
20
23
It cometh to pass, at the filling of his belly, He sendeth forth against him The fierceness of His anger, Yea, He raineth on him in his eating.
field: 18020024
18
20
24
He fleeth from an iron weapon, Pass through him doth a bow of brass.
field: 18020025
18
20
25
One hath drawn, And it cometh out from the body, And a glittering weapon from his gall proceedeth. On him `are' terrors.
field: 18020026
18
20
26
All darkness is hid for his treasures, Consume him doth a fire not blown, Broken is the remnant in his tent.
field: 18020027
18
20
27
Reveal do the heavens his iniquity, And earth is raising itself against him.
field: 18020028
18
20
28
Remove doth the increase of his house, Poured forth in a day of His anger.
field: 18020029
18
20
29
This `is' the portion of a wicked man from God. And an inheritance appointed him by God.
field: 18021001
18
21
1
And Job answereth and saith: --
field: 18021002
18
21
2
Hear ye diligently my word, And this is your consolation.
field: 18021003
18
21
3
Bear with me, and I speak, And after my speaking -- ye may deride.
field: 18021004
18
21
4
I -- to man `is' my complaint? and if `so', wherefore May not my temper become short?
field: 18021005
18
21
5
Turn unto me, and be astonished, And put hand to mouth.
field: 18021006
18
21
6
Yea, if I have remembered, then I have been troubled. And my flesh hath taken fright.
field: 18021007
18
21
7
Wherefore do the wicked live? They have become old, Yea, they have been mighty in wealth.
field: 18021008
18
21
8
Their seed is established, Before their face with them, And their offspring before their eyes.
field: 18021009
18
21
9
Their houses `are' peace without fear, Nor `is' a rod of God upon them.
field: 18021010
18
21
10
His bullock hath eaten corn, and doth not loath. His cow bringeth forth safely, And doth not miscarry.
field: 18021011
18
21
11
They send forth as a flock their sucklings, And their children skip,
field: 18021012
18
21
12
They lift `themselves' up at timbrel and harp, And rejoice at the sound of an organ.
field: 18021013
18
21
13
They wear out in good their days, And in a moment `to' Sheol go down.
field: 18021014
18
21
14
And they say to God, `Turn aside from us, And the knowledge of Thy ways We have not desired.
field: 18021015
18
21
15
What `is' the Mighty One that we serve Him? And what do we profit when we meet with Him?'
field: 18021016
18
21
16
Lo, not in their hand `is' their good, (The counsel of the wicked Hath been far from me.)
field: 18021017
18
21
17
How oft is the lamp of the wicked extinguished, And come on them doth their calamity? Pangs He apportioneth in His anger.
field: 18021018
18
21
18
They are as straw before wind, And as chaff a hurricane hath stolen away,
field: 18021019
18
21
19
God layeth up for his sons his sorrow, He giveth recompense unto him -- and he knoweth.
field: 18021020
18
21
20
His own eyes see his destruction, And of the wrath of the Mighty he drinketh.
field: 18021021
18
21
21
For what `is' his delight in his house after him, And the number of his months cut off?
field: 18021022
18
21
22
To God doth `one' teach knowledge, And He the high doth judge?
field: 18021023
18
21
23
This `one' dieth in his perfect strength, Wholly at ease and quiet.
field: 18021024
18
21
24
His breasts have been full of milk, And marrow his bones doth moisten.
field: 18021025
18
21
25
And this `one' dieth with a bitter soul, And have not eaten with gladness.
field: 18021026
18
21
26
Together -- on the dust they lie down, And the worm doth cover them over.
field: 18021027
18
21
27
Lo, I have known your thoughts, And the devices against me ye do wrongfully.
field: 18021028
18
21
28
For ye say, `Where `is' the house of the noble? And where the tent -- The tabernacles of the wicked?'
field: 18021029
18
21
29
Have ye not asked those passing by the way? And their signs do ye not know?
field: 18021030
18
21
30
That to a day of calamity is the wicked spared. To a day of wrath they are brought.
field: 18021031
18
21
31
Who doth declare to his face his way? And `for' that which he hath done, Who doth give recompence to him?
field: 18021032
18
21
32
And he -- to the graves he is brought. And over the heap a watch is kept.
field: 18021033
18
21
33
Sweet to him have been the clods of the valley, And after him every man he draweth, And before him there is no numbering.
field: 18021034
18
21
34
And how do ye comfort me `with' vanity, And in your answers hath been left trespass?
field: 18022001
18
22
1
And Eliphaz the Temanite answereth and saith: --
field: 18022002
18
22
2
To God is a man profitable, Because a wise man to himself is profitable?
field: 18022003
18
22
3
Is it a delight to the Mighty One That thou art righteous? is it gain, That thou makest perfect thy ways?
field: 18022004
18
22
4
Because of thy reverence Doth He reason `with' thee? He entereth with thee into judgment:
field: 18022005
18
22
5
Is not thy wickedness abundant? And there is no end to thine iniquities.
field: 18022006
18
22
6
For thou takest a pledge of thy brother for nought, And the garments of the naked Thou dost strip off.
field: 18022007
18
22
7
Thou causest not the weary to drink water, And from the hungry thou withholdest bread.
field: 18022008
18
22
8
As to the man of arm -- he hath the earth, And the accepted of face -- he dwelleth in it.
field: 18022009
18
22
9
Widows thou hast sent away empty, And the arms of the fatherless are bruised.
field: 18022010
18
22
10
Therefore round about thee `are' snares, And trouble thee doth fear suddenly.
field: 18022011
18
22
11
Or darkness -- thou dost not see, And abundance of waters doth cover thee.
field: 18022012
18
22
12
Is not God high `in' heaven? And see the summit of the stars, That they are high.
field: 18022013
18
22
13
And thou hast said, `What -- hath God known? Through thickness doth He judge?
field: 18022014
18
22
14
Thick clouds `are' a secret place to Him, And He doth not see;' And the circle of the heavens He walketh habitually,
field: 18022015
18
22
15
The path of the age dost thou observe, That men of iniquity have trodden?
field: 18022016
18
22
16
Who have been cut down unexpectedly, A flood is poured out on their foundation.
field: 18022017
18
22
17
Those saying to God, `Turn aside from us,' And what doth the Mighty One to them?
field: 18022018
18
22
18
And he hath filled their houses `with' good: (And the counsel of the wicked Hath been far from me.)
field: 18022019
18
22
19
See do the righteous and they rejoice, And the innocent mocketh at them,
field: 18022020
18
22
20
`Surely our substance hath not been cut off, And their excellency hath fire consumed.'
field: 18022021
18
22
21
Acquaint thyself, I pray thee, with Him, And be at peace, Thereby thine increase `is' good.
field: 18022022
18
22
22
Receive, I pray thee, from His mouth a law, And set His sayings in thy heart.
field: 18022023
18
22
23
If thou dost return unto the Mighty Thou art built up, Thou puttest iniquity far from thy tents.
field: 18022024
18
22
24
So as to set on the dust a defence, And on a rock of the valleys a covering.
field: 18022025
18
22
25
And the Mighty hath been thy defence, And silver `is' strength to thee.
field: 18022026
18
22
26
For then on the Mighty thou delightest thyself, And dost lift up unto God thy face,
field: 18022027
18
22
27
Thou dost make supplication unto Him, And He doth hear thee, And thy vows thou completest.
field: 18022028
18
22
28
And thou decreest a saying, And it is established to thee, And on thy ways hath light shone.
field: 18022029
18
22
29
For they have made low, And thou sayest, `Lift up.' And the bowed down of eyes he saveth.
field: 18022030
18
22
30
He delivereth the not innocent, Yea, he hath been delivered By the cleanness of thy hands.
field: 18023001
18
23
1
And Job answereth and saith: --
field: 18023002
18
23
2
Also -- to-day `is' my complaint bitter, My hand hath been heavy because of my sighing.
field: 18023003
18
23
3
O that I had known -- and I find Him, I come in unto His seat,
field: 18023004
18
23
4
I arrange before Him the cause, And my mouth fill `with' arguments.
field: 18023005
18
23
5
I know the words He doth answer me, And understand what He saith to me.
field: 18023006
18
23
6
In the abundance of power doth He strive with me? No! surely He putteth `it' in me.
field: 18023007
18
23
7
There the upright doth reason with Him, And I escape for ever from my judge.
field: 18023008
18
23
8
Lo, forward I go -- and He is not, And backward -- and I perceive him not.
field: 18023009
18
23
9
`To' the left in His working -- and I see not, He is covered `on' the right, and I behold not.
field: 18023010
18
23
10
For He hath known the way with me, He hath tried me -- as gold I go forth.
field: 18023011
18
23
11
On His step hath my foot laid hold, His way I have kept, and turn not aside,
field: 18023012
18
23
12
The command of His lips, and I depart not. Above my allotted portion I have laid up The sayings of His mouth.
field: 18023013
18
23
13
And He `is' in one `mind', And who doth turn Him back? And His soul hath desired -- and He doth `it'.
field: 18023014
18
23
14
For He doth complete my portion, And many such things `are' with Him.
field: 18023015
18
23
15
Therefore, from His presence I am troubled, I consider, and am afraid of Him.
field: 18023016
18
23
16
And God hath made my heart soft, And the Mighty hath troubled me.
field: 18023017
18
23
17
For I have not been cut off before darkness, And before me He covered thick darkness.
field: 18024001
18
24
1
Wherefore from the Mighty One Times have not been hidden, And those knowing Him have not seen His days.
field: 18024002
18
24
2
The borders they reach, A drove they have taken violently away, Yea, they do evil.
field: 18024003
18
24
3
The ass of the fatherless they lead away, They take in pledge the ox of the widow,
field: 18024004
18
24
4
They turn aside the needy from the way, Together have hid the poor of the earth.
field: 18024005
18
24
5
Lo, wild asses in a wilderness, They have gone out about their work, Seeking early for prey, A mixture for himself -- food for young ones.
field: 18024006
18
24
6
In a field his provender they reap, And the vineyard of the wicked they glean.
field: 18024007
18
24
7
The naked they cause to lodge Without clothing. And there is no covering in the cold.
field: 18024008
18
24
8
From the inundation of hills they are wet, And without a refuge -- have embraced a rock.
field: 18024009
18
24
9
They take violently away From the breast the orphan, And on the poor they lay a pledge.
field: 18024010
18
24
10
Naked, they have gone without clothing, And hungry -- have taken away a sheaf.
field: 18024011
18
24
11
Between their walls they make oil, Wine-presses they have trodden, and thirst.
field: 18024012
18
24
12
Because of enmity men do groan, And the soul of pierced ones doth cry, And God doth not give praise.
field: 18024013
18
24
13
They have been among rebellious ones of light, They have not discerned His ways, Nor abode in His paths.
field: 18024014
18
24
14
At the light doth the murderer rise, He doth slay the poor and needy, And in the night he is as a thief.
field: 18024015
18
24
15
And the eye of an adulterer Hath observed the twilight, Saying, `No eye doth behold me.' And he putteth the face in secret.
field: 18024016
18
24
16
He hath dug in the darkness -- houses; By day they shut themselves up, They have not known light.
field: 18024017
18
24
17
When together, morning `is' to them death shade, When he discerneth the terrors of death shade.
field: 18024018
18
24
18
Light he `is' on the face of the waters, Vilified is their portion in the earth, He turneth not the way of vineyards.
field: 18024019
18
24
19
Drought -- also heat -- consume snow-waters, Sheol `those who' have sinned.
field: 18024020
18
24
20
Forget him doth the womb, Sweeten `on' him doth the worm, No more is he remembered, And broken as a tree is wickedness.
field: 18024021
18
24
21
Treating evil the barren `who' beareth not, And `to' the widow he doth no good,
field: 18024022
18
24
22
And hath drawn the mighty by his power, He riseth, and none believeth in life.
field: 18024023
18
24
23
He giveth to him confidence, and he is supported, And his eyes `are' on their ways.
field: 18024024
18
24
24
High they were `for' a little, and they are not, And they have been brought low. As all `others' they are shut up, And as the head of an ear of corn cut off.
field: 18024025
18
24
25
And if not now, who doth prove me a liar, And doth make of nothing my word?
field: 18025001
18
25
1
And Bildad the Shuhite answereth and saith: --
field: 18025002
18
25
2
The rule and fear `are' with Him, Making peace in His high places.
field: 18025003
18
25
3
Is their `any' number to His troops? And on whom ariseth not His light?
field: 18025004
18
25
4
And what? is man righteous with God? And what? is he pure -- born of a woman?
field: 18025005
18
25
5
Lo -- unto the moon, and it shineth not, And stars have not been pure in His eyes.
field: 18025006
18
25
6
How much less man -- a grub, And the son of man -- a worm!
field: 18026001
18
26
1
And Job answereth and saith: --
field: 18026002
18
26
2
What -- thou hast helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong!
field: 18026003
18
26
3
What -- thou hast given counsel to the unwise, And wise plans in abundance made known.
field: 18026004
18
26
4
With whom hast thou declared words? And whose breath came forth from thee?
field: 18026005
18
26
5
The Rephaim are formed, Beneath the waters, also their inhabitants.
field: 18026006
18
26
6
Naked `is' Sheol over-against Him, And there is no covering to destruction.
field: 18026007
18
26
7
Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth upon nothing,
field: 18026008
18
26
8
Binding up the waters in His thick clouds, And the cloud is not rent under them.
field: 18026009
18
26
9
Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading over it His cloud.
field: 18026010
18
26
10
A limit He hath placed on the waters, Unto the boundary of light with darkness.
field: 18026011
18
26
11
Pillars of the heavens do tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke.
field: 18026012
18
26
12
By His power He hath quieted the sea, And by His understanding smitten the proud.
field: 18026013
18
26
13
By His Spirit the heavens He beautified, Formed hath His hand the fleeing serpent.
field: 18026014
18
26
14
Lo, these `are' the borders of His way, And how little a matter is heard of Him, And the thunder of His might Who doth understand?
field: 18027001
18
27
1
And Job addeth to lift up his simile, and saith: --
field: 18027002
18
27
2
God liveth! He turned aside my judgment, And the Mighty -- He made my soul bitter.
field: 18027003
18
27
3
For all the while my breath `is' in me, And the spirit of God in my nostrils.
field: 18027004
18
27
4
My lips do not speak perverseness, And my tongue doth not utter deceit.
field: 18027005
18
27
5
Pollution to me -- if I justify you, Till I expire I turn not aside mine integrity from me.
field: 18027006
18
27
6
On my righteousness I have laid hold, And I do not let it go, My heart doth not reproach me while I live.
field: 18027007
18
27
7
As the wicked is my enemy, And my withstander as the perverse.
field: 18027008
18
27
8
For what `is' the hope of the profane, When He doth cut off? When God doth cast off his soul?
field: 18027009
18
27
9
His cry doth God hear, When distress cometh on him?
field: 18027010
18
27
10
On the Mighty doth he delight himself? Call God at all times?
field: 18027011
18
27
11
I shew you by the hand of God, That which `is' with the Mighty I hide not.
field: 18027012
18
27
12
Lo, ye -- all of you -- have seen, And why `is' this -- ye are altogether vain?
field: 18027013
18
27
13
This `is' the portion of wicked man with God, And the inheritance of terrible ones From the Mighty they receive.
field: 18027014
18
27
14
If his sons multiply -- for them `is' a sword. And his offspring `are' not satisfied `with' bread.
field: 18027015
18
27
15
His remnant in death are buried, And his widows do not weep.
field: 18027016
18
27
16
If he heap up as dust silver, And as clay prepare clothing,
field: 18027017
18
27
17
He prepareth -- and the righteous putteth `it' on, And the silver the innocent doth apportion.
field: 18027018
18
27
18
He hath built as a moth his house, And as a booth a watchman hath made.
field: 18027019
18
27
19
Rich he lieth down, and he is not gathered, His eyes he hath opened, and he is not.
field: 18027020
18
27
20
Overtake him as waters do terrors, By night stolen him away hath a whirlwind.
field: 18027021
18
27
21
Take him up doth an east wind, and he goeth, And it frighteneth him from his place,
field: 18027022
18
27
22
And it casteth at him, and doth not spare, From its hand he diligently fleeth.
field: 18027023
18
27
23
It clappeth at him its hands, And it hisseth at him from his place.
field: 18028001
18
28
1
Surely there is for silver a source, And a place for the gold they refine;
field: 18028002
18
28
2
Iron from the dust is taken, And `from' the firm stone brass.
field: 18028003
18
28
3
An end hath he set to darkness, And to all perfection he is searching, A stone of darkness and death-shade.
field: 18028004
18
28
4
A stream hath broken out from a sojourner, Those forgotten of the foot, They were low, from man they wandered.
field: 18028005
18
28
5
The earth! from it cometh forth bread, And its under-part is turned like fire.
field: 18028006
18
28
6
A place of the sapphire `are' its stones, And it hath dust of gold.
field: 18028007
18
28
7
A path -- not known it hath a ravenous fowl, Nor scorched it hath an eye of the kite,
field: 18028008
18
28
8
Nor trodden it have the sons of pride, Not passed over it hath the fierce lion.
field: 18028009
18
28
9
Against the flint he sent forth his hand, He overturned from the root mountains.
field: 18028010
18
28
10
Among rocks, brooks he hath cleaved, And every precious thing hath his eye seen.
field: 18028011
18
28
11
From overflowing floods he hath bound, And the hidden thing bringeth out `to' light.
field: 18028012
18
28
12
And the wisdom -- whence is it found? And where `is' this, the place of understanding?
field: 18028013
18
28
13
Man hath not known its arrangement, Nor is it found in the land of the living.
field: 18028014
18
28
14
The deep hath said, `It `is' not in me,' And the sea hath said, `It is not with me.'
field: 18028015
18
28
15
Gold is not given for it, Nor is silver weighed -- its price.
field: 18028016
18
28
16
It is not valued with pure gold of Ophir, With precious onyx and sapphire,
field: 18028017
18
28
17
Not equal it do gold and crystal, Nor `is' its exchange a vessel of fine gold.
field: 18028018
18
28
18
Corals and pearl are not remembered, The acquisition of wisdom `is' above rubies.
field: 18028019
18
28
19
Not equal it doth the topaz of Cush, With pure gold it is not valued.
field: 18028020
18
28
20
And the wisdom -- whence doth it come? And where `is' this, the place of understanding?
field: 18028021
18
28
21
It hath been hid from the eyes of all living. And from the fowl of the heavens It hath been hidden.
field: 18028022
18
28
22
Destruction and death have said: `With our ears we have heard its fame.'
field: 18028023
18
28
23
God hath understood its way, And He hath known its place.
field: 18028024
18
28
24
For He to the ends of the earth doth look, Under the whole heavens He doth see,
field: 18028025
18
28
25
To make for the wind a weight, And the waters He meted out in measure.
field: 18028026
18
28
26
In His making for the rain a limit, And a way for the brightness of the voices,
field: 18028027
18
28
27
Then He hath seen and declareth it, He hath prepared it, and also searched it out,
field: 18028028
18
28
28
And He saith to man: -- `Lo, fear of the Lord, that `is' wisdom, And to turn from evil `is' understanding.'
field: 18029001
18
29
1
And Job addeth to lift up his simile, and saith: --
field: 18029002
18
29
2
Who doth make me as `in' months past, As `in' the days of God's preserving me?
field: 18029003
18
29
3
In His causing His lamp to shine on my head, By His light I walk `through' darkness.
field: 18029004
18
29
4
As I have been in days of my maturity, And the counsel of God upon my tent.
field: 18029005
18
29
5
When yet the Mighty One `is' with me. Round about me -- my young ones,
field: 18029006
18
29
6
When washing my goings with butter, And the firm rock `is' with me rivulets of oil.
field: 18029007
18
29
7
When I go out to the gate by the city, In a broad place I prepare my seat.
field: 18029008
18
29
8
Seen me have youths, and they, been hidden, And the aged have risen -- they stood up.
field: 18029009
18
29
9
Princes have kept in words, And a hand they place on their mouth.
field: 18029010
18
29
10
The voice of leaders hath been hidden, And their tongue to the palate hath cleaved.
field: 18029011
18
29
11
For the ear heard, and declareth me happy, And the eye hath seen, and testifieth `to' me.
field: 18029012
18
29
12
For I deliver the afflicted who is crying, And the fatherless who hath no helper.
field: 18029013
18
29
13
The blessing of the perishing cometh on me, And the heart of the widow I cause to sing.
field: 18029014
18
29
14
Righteousness I have put on, and it clotheth me, As a robe and a diadem my justice.
field: 18029015
18
29
15
Eyes I have been to the blind, And feet to the lame `am' I.
field: 18029016
18
29
16
A father I `am' to the needy, And the cause I have not known I search out.
field: 18029017
18
29
17
And I break the jaw-teeth of the perverse, And from his teeth I cast away prey.
field: 18029018
18
29
18
And I say, `With my nest I expire, And as the sand I multiply days.'
field: 18029019
18
29
19
My root is open unto the waters, And dew doth lodge on my branch.
field: 18029020
18
29
20
My honour `is' fresh with me, And my bow in my hand is renewed.
field: 18029021
18
29
21
To me they have hearkened, Yea, they wait, and are silent for my counsel.
field: 18029022
18
29
22
After my word they change not, And on them doth my speech drop,
field: 18029023
18
29
23
And they wait as `for' rain for me, And their mouth they have opened wide `As' for the latter rain.
field: 18029024
18
29
24
I laugh unto them -- they give no credence, And the light of my face cause not to fall.
field: 18029025
18
29
25
I choose their way, and sit head, And I dwell as a king in a troop, When mourners he doth comfort.
field: 18030001
18
30
1
And now, laughed at me, Have the younger in days than I, Whose fathers I have loathed to set With the dogs of my flock.
field: 18030002
18
30
2
Also -- the power of their hands, why `is it' to me? On them hath old age perished.
field: 18030003
18
30
3
With want and with famine gloomy, Those fleeing to a dry place, Formerly a desolation and waste,
field: 18030004
18
30
4
Those cropping mallows near a shrub, And broom-roots `is' their food.
field: 18030005
18
30
5
From the midst they are cast out, (They shout against them as a thief),
field: 18030006
18
30
6
In a frightful place of valleys to dwell, Holes of earth and clefts.
field: 18030007
18
30
7
Among shrubs they do groan, Under nettles they are gathered together.
field: 18030008
18
30
8
Sons of folly -- even sons without name, They have been smitten from the land.
field: 18030009
18
30
9
And now, their song I have been, And I am to them for a byword.
field: 18030010
18
30
10
They have abominated me, They have kept far from me, And from before me have not spared to spit.
field: 18030011
18
30
11
Because His cord He loosed and afflicteth me, And the bridle from before me, They have cast away.
field: 18030012
18
30
12
On the right hand doth a brood arise, My feet they have cast away, And they raise up against me, Their paths of calamity.
field: 18030013
18
30
13
They have broken down my path, By my calamity they profit, `He hath no helper.'
field: 18030014
18
30
14
As a wide breach they come, Under the desolation have rolled themselves.
field: 18030015
18
30
15
He hath turned against me terrors, It pursueth as the wind mine abundance, And as a thick cloud, Hath my safety passed away.
field: 18030016
18
30
16
And now, in me my soul poureth itself out, Seize me do days of affliction.
field: 18030017
18
30
17
At night my bone hath been pierced in me, And mine eyelids do not lie down.
field: 18030018
18
30
18
By the abundance of power, Is my clothing changed, As the mouth of my coat it doth gird me.
field: 18030019
18
30
19
Casting me into mire, And I am become like dust and ashes.
field: 18030020
18
30
20
I cry unto Thee, And Thou dost not answer me, I have stood, and Thou dost consider me.
field: 18030021
18
30
21
Thou art turned to be fierce to me, With the strength of Thy hand, Thou oppresest me.
field: 18030022
18
30
22
Thou dost lift me up, On the wind Thou dost cause me to ride, And Thou meltest -- Thou levellest me.
field: 18030023
18
30
23
For I have known To death Thou dost bring me back, And `to' the house appointed for all living.
field: 18030024
18
30
24
Surely not against the heap Doth He send forth the hand, Though in its ruin they have safety.
field: 18030025
18
30
25
Did not I weep for him whose day is hard? Grieved hath my soul for the needy.
field: 18030026
18
30
26
When good I expected, then cometh evil, And I wait for light, and darkness cometh.
field: 18030027
18
30
27
My bowels have boiled, and have not ceased, Gone before me have days of affliction.
field: 18030028
18
30
28
Mourning I have gone without the sun, I have risen, in an assembly I cry.
field: 18030029
18
30
29
A brother I have been to dragons, And a companion to daughters of the ostrich.
field: 18030030
18
30
30
My skin hath been black upon me, And my bone hath burned from heat,
field: 18030031
18
30
31
And my harp doth become mourning, And my organ the sound of weeping.
field: 18031001
18
31
1
A covenant I made for mine eyes, And what -- do I attend to a virgin?
field: 18031002
18
31
2
And what `is' the portion of God from above? And the inheritance of the Mighty from the heights?
field: 18031003
18
31
3
Is not calamity to the perverse? And strangeness to workers of iniquity?
field: 18031004
18
31
4
Doth not He see my ways, And all my steps number?
field: 18031005
18
31
5
If I have walked with vanity, And my foot doth hasten to deceit,
field: 18031006
18
31
6
He doth weigh me in righteous balances, And God doth know my integrity.
field: 18031007
18
31
7
If my step doth turn aside from the way, And after mine eyes hath my heart gone, And to my hands cleaved hath blemish,
field: 18031008
18
31
8
Let me sow -- and another eat, And my products let be rooted out.
field: 18031009
18
31
9
If my heart hath been enticed by woman, And by the opening of my neighbour I laid wait,
field: 18031010
18
31
10
Grind to another let my wife, And over her let others bend.
field: 18031011
18
31
11
For it `is' a wicked thing, and a judicial iniquity;
field: 18031012
18
31
12
For a fire it `is', to destruction it consumeth, And among all mine increase doth take root,
field: 18031013
18
31
13
If I despise the cause of my man-servant, And of my handmaid, In their contending with me,
field: 18031014
18
31
14
Then what do I do when God ariseth? And when He doth inspect, What do I answer Him?
field: 18031015
18
31
15
Did not He that made me in the womb make him? Yea, prepare us in the womb doth One.
field: 18031016
18
31
16
If I withhold from pleasure the poor, And the eyes of the widow do consume,
field: 18031017
18
31
17
And I do eat my morsel by myself, And the orphan hath not eat of it,
field: 18031018
18
31
18
(But from my youth He grew up with me as `with' a father, And from the belly of my mother I am led.)
field: 18031019
18
31
19
If I see `any' perishing without clothing, And there is no covering to the needy,
field: 18031020
18
31
20
If his loins have not blessed me, And from the fleece of my sheep He doth not warm himself,
field: 18031021
18
31
21
If I have waved at the fatherless my hand, When I see in `him' the gate of my court,
field: 18031022
18
31
22
My shoulder from its blade let fall, And mine arm from the bone be broken.
field: 18031023
18
31
23
For a dread unto me `is' calamity `from' God, And because of His excellency I am not able.
field: 18031024
18
31
24
If I have made gold my confidence, And to the pure gold have said, `My trust,'
field: 18031025
18
31
25
If I rejoice because great `is' my wealth, And because abundance hath my hand found,
field: 18031026
18
31
26
If I see the light when it shineth, And the precious moon walking,
field: 18031027
18
31
27
And my heart is enticed in secret, And my hand doth kiss my mouth,
field: 18031028
18
31
28
It also `is' a judicial iniquity, For I had lied to God above.
field: 18031029
18
31
29
If I rejoice at the ruin of my hater, And stirred up myself when evil found him,
field: 18031030
18
31
30
Yea, I have not suffered my mouth to sin, To ask with an oath his life.
field: 18031031
18
31
31
If not -- say ye, O men of my tent, `O that we had of his flesh, we are not satisfied.'
field: 18031032
18
31
32
In the street doth not lodge a stranger, My doors to the traveller I open.
field: 18031033
18
31
33
If I have covered as Adam my transgressions, To hide in my bosom mine iniquity,
field: 18031034
18
31
34
Because I fear a great multitude, And the contempt of families doth affright me, Then I am silent, I go not out of the opening.
field: 18031035
18
31
35
Who giveth to me a hearing? lo, my mark. The Mighty One doth answer me, And a bill hath mine adversary written.
field: 18031036
18
31
36
If not -- on my shoulder I take it up, I bind it a crown on myself.
field: 18031037
18
31
37
The number of my steps I tell Him, As a leader I approach Him.
field: 18031038
18
31
38
If against me my land doth cry out, And together its furrows weep,
field: 18031039
18
31
39
If its strength I consumed without money, And the life of its possessors, I have caused to breathe out,
field: 18031040
18
31
40
Instead of wheat let a thorn go forth, And instead of barley a useless weed! The words of Job are finished.
field: 18032001
18
32
1
And these three men cease from answering Job, for he `is' righteous in his own eyes,
field: 18032002
18
32
2
and burn doth the anger of Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram; against Job hath his anger burned, because of his justifying himself more than God;
field: 18032003
18
32
3
and against his three friends hath his anger burned, because that they have not found an answer, and condemn Job.
field: 18032004
18
32
4
And Elihu hath waited earnestly beside Job with words, for they are older than he in days.
field: 18032005
18
32
5
And Elihu seeth that there is no answer in the mouth of the three men, and his anger burneth.
field: 18032006
18
32
6
And Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite answereth and saith: -- Young I `am' in days, and ye `are' age Therefore I have feared, And am afraid of shewing you my opinion.
field: 18032007
18
32
7
I said: Days do speak, And multitude of years teach wisdom.
field: 18032008
18
32
8
Surely a spirit is in man, And the breath of the Mighty One Doth cause them to understand.
field: 18032009
18
32
9
The multitude are not wise, Nor do the aged understand judgment.
field: 18032010
18
32
10
Therefore I have said: Hearken to me, I do shew my opinion -- even I.
field: 18032011
18
32
11
Lo, I have waited for your words, I give ear unto your reasons, Till ye search out sayings.
field: 18032012
18
32
12
And unto you I attend, And lo, there is no reasoner for Job, `Or' answerer of his sayings among you.
field: 18032013
18
32
13
Lest ye say, We have found wisdom, God doth thrust him away, not man.
field: 18032014
18
32
14
And he hath not set in array words for me, And with your sayings I do not answer him.
field: 18032015
18
32
15
(They have broken down, They have not answered again, They removed from themselves words.
field: 18032016
18
32
16
And I have waited, but they do not speak, For they have stood still, They have not answered any more.)
field: 18032017
18
32
17
I answer, even I -- my share, I shew my opinion -- even I.
field: 18032018
18
32
18
For I have been full of words, Distressed me hath the spirit of my breast,
field: 18032019
18
32
19
Lo, my breast `is' as wine not opened, Like new bottles it is broken up.
field: 18032020
18
32
20
I speak, and there is refreshment to me, I open my lips and answer.
field: 18032021
18
32
21
Let me not, I pray you, accept the face of any, Nor unto man give flattering titles,
field: 18032022
18
32
22
For I have not known to give flattering titles, In a little doth my Maker take me away.
field: 18033001
18
33
1
And yet, I pray thee, O Job, Hear my speech and `to' all my words give ear.
field: 18033002
18
33
2
Lo, I pray thee, I have opened my mouth, My tongue hath spoken in the palate.
field: 18033003
18
33
3
Of the uprightness of my heart `are' my sayings, And knowledge have my lips clearly spoken.
field: 18033004
18
33
4
The Spirit of God hath made me, And the breath of the Mighty doth quicken me.
field: 18033005
18
33
5
If thou art able -- answer me, Set in array before me -- station thyself.
field: 18033006
18
33
6
Lo, I `am', according to thy word, for God, From the clay I -- I also, have been formed.
field: 18033007
18
33
7
Lo, my terror doth not frighten thee, And my burden on thee is not heavy.
field: 18033008
18
33
8
Surely -- thou hast said in mine ears, And the sounds of words I hear:
field: 18033009
18
33
9
`Pure `am' I, without transgression, Innocent `am' I, and I have no iniquity.
field: 18033010
18
33
10
Lo, occasions against me He doth find, He doth reckon me for an enemy to Him,
field: 18033011
18
33
11
He doth put in the stocks my feet, He doth watch all my paths.'
field: 18033012
18
33
12
Lo, `in' this thou hast not been righteous, I answer thee, that greater is God than man.
field: 18033013
18
33
13
Wherefore against Him hast thou striven, When `for' all His matters He answereth not?
field: 18033014
18
33
14
For once doth God speak, and twice, (He doth not behold it.)
field: 18033015
18
33
15
In a dream -- a vision of night, In the falling of deep sleep on men, In slumberings on a bed.
field: 18033016
18
33
16
Then He uncovereth the ear of men, And for their instruction sealeth:
field: 18033017
18
33
17
To turn aside man `from' doing, And pride from man He concealeth.
field: 18033018
18
33
18
He keepeth back his soul from corruption, And his life from passing away by a dart.
field: 18033019
18
33
19
And he hath been reproved With pain on his bed, And the strife of his bones `is' enduring.
field: 18033020
18
33
20
And his life hath nauseated bread, And his soul desirable food.
field: 18033021
18
33
21
His flesh is consumed from being seen, And high are his bones, they were not seen!
field: 18033022
18
33
22
And draw near to the pit doth his soul, And his life to those causing death.
field: 18033023
18
33
23
If there is by him a messenger, An interpreter -- one of a thousand, To declare for man his uprightness:
field: 18033024
18
33
24
Then He doth favour him and saith, `Ransom him from going down to the pit, I have found an atonement.'
field: 18033025
18
33
25
Fresher `is' his flesh than a child's, He returneth to the days of his youth.
field: 18033026
18
33
26
He maketh supplication unto God, And He accepteth him. And he seeth His face with shouting, And He returneth to man His righteousness.
field: 18033027
18
33
27
He looketh on men, and saith, `I sinned, And uprightness I have perverted, And it hath not been profitable to me.
field: 18033028
18
33
28
He hath ransomed my soul From going over into the pit, And my life on the light looketh.'
field: 18033029
18
33
29
Lo, all these doth God work, Twice -- thrice with man,
field: 18033030
18
33
30
To bring back his soul from the pit, To be enlightened with the light of the living.
field: 18033031
18
33
31
Attend, O Job, hearken to me, Keep silent, and I -- I do speak.
field: 18033032
18
33
32
If there are words -- answer me, Speak, for I have a desire to justify thee.
field: 18033033
18
33
33
If there are not -- hearken thou to me, Keep silent, and I teach thee wisdom.
field: 18034001
18
34
1
And Elihu answereth and saith:
field: 18034002
18
34
2
Hear, O wise men, my words, And, O knowing ones, give ear to me.
field: 18034003
18
34
3
For the ear doth try words, And the palate tasteth to eat.
field: 18034004
18
34
4
Judgment let us choose for ourselves, Let us know among ourselves what `is' good.
field: 18034005
18
34
5
For Job hath said, `I have been righteous, And God hath turned aside my right,
field: 18034006
18
34
6
Against my right do I lie? Mortal `is' mine arrow -- without transgression.'
field: 18034007
18
34
7
Who `is' a man like Job? He drinketh scoffing like water,
field: 18034008
18
34
8
And he hath travelled for company With workers of iniquity, So as to go with men of wickedness.
field: 18034009
18
34
9
For he hath said, `It doth not profit a man, When he delighteth himself with God.'
field: 18034010
18
34
10
Therefore, O men of heart, hearken to me; Far be it from God to do wickedness, And `from' the Mighty to do perverseness:
field: 18034011
18
34
11
For the work of man he repayeth to him, And according to the path of each He doth cause him to find.
field: 18034012
18
34
12
Yea, truly, God doth not do wickedly, And the Mighty doth not pervert judgment.
field: 18034013
18
34
13
Who hath inspected for Himself the earth? And who hath placed all the habitable world?
field: 18034014
18
34
14
If He doth set on him His heart, His spirit and his breath unto Him He gathereth.
field: 18034015
18
34
15
Expire doth all flesh together, And man to dust returneth.
field: 18034016
18
34
16
And if `there is' understanding, hear this, Give ear to the voice of my words.
field: 18034017
18
34
17
Yea, doth one hating justice govern? Or the Most Just dost thou condemn?
field: 18034018
18
34
18
Who hath said to a king -- `Worthless,' Unto princes -- `Wicked?'
field: 18034019
18
34
19
That hath not accepted the person of princes, Nor hath known the rich before the poor, For a work of His hands `are' all of them.
field: 18034020
18
34
20
`In' a moment they die, and at midnight Shake do people, and they pass away, And they remove the mighty without hand.
field: 18034021
18
34
21
For His eyes `are' on the ways of each, And all his steps He doth see.
field: 18034022
18
34
22
There is no darkness nor death-shade, For workers of iniquity to be hidden there;
field: 18034023
18
34
23
For He doth not suffer man any more, To go unto God in judgment,
field: 18034024
18
34
24
He breaketh the mighty -- no searching! And He appointeth others in their stead.
field: 18034025
18
34
25
Therefore He knoweth their works, And He hath overturned by night, And they are bruised.
field: 18034026
18
34
26
As wicked He hath stricken them, In the place of beholders.
field: 18034027
18
34
27
Because that against right They have turned aside from after Him, And none of His ways have considered wisely,
field: 18034028
18
34
28
To cause to come in unto Him The cry of the poor, And the cry of the afflicted He heareth.
field: 18034029
18
34
29
And He giveth rest, and who maketh wrong? And hideth the face, and who beholdeth it? And in reference to a nation and to a man, `It is' the same.
field: 18034030
18
34
30
From the reigning of a profane man, From the snares of a people;
field: 18034031
18
34
31
For unto God hath any said: `I have taken away, I do not corruptly,
field: 18034032
18
34
32
Besides `that which' I see, shew Thou me, If iniquity I have done -- I do not add?'
field: 18034033
18
34
33
By thee doth He recompense, That thou hast refused -- That thou dost choose, and not I? And what thou hast known, speak.
field: 18034034
18
34
34
Let men of heart say to me, And a wise man is hearkening to me.
field: 18034035
18
34
35
Job -- not with knowledge doth he speak, And his words `are' not with wisdom.
field: 18034036
18
34
36
My Father! let Job be tried -- unto victory, Because of answers for men of iniquity,
field: 18034037
18
34
37
For he doth add to his sin, Transgression among us he vomiteth, And multiplieth his sayings to God.
field: 18035001
18
35
1
And Elihu answereth and saith: --
field: 18035002
18
35
2
This hast thou reckoned for judgment: Thou hast said -- `My righteousness `is' more than God's?'
field: 18035003
18
35
3
For thou sayest, `What doth it profit Thee! What do I profit from my sin?'
field: 18035004
18
35
4
I return thee words, and thy friends with thee,
field: 18035005
18
35
5
Behold attentively the heavens -- and see, And behold the clouds, They have been higher than thou.
field: 18035006
18
35
6
If thou hast sinned, what dost thou against Him? And thy transgressions have been multiplied, What dost thou to Him?
field: 18035007
18
35
7
If thou hast been righteous, What dost thou give to Him? Or what from thy hand doth He receive?
field: 18035008
18
35
8
For a man like thyself `is' thy wickedness, And for a son of man thy righteousness.
field: 18035009
18
35
9
Because of the multitude of oppressions They cause to cry out, They cry because of the arm of the mighty.
field: 18035010
18
35
10
And none said, `Where `is' God my maker? Giving songs in the night,
field: 18035011
18
35
11
Teaching us more than the beasts of the earth, Yea, than the fowl of the heavens He maketh us wiser.'
field: 18035012
18
35
12
There they cry, and He doth not answer, Because of the pride of evil doers.
field: 18035013
18
35
13
Surely vanity God doth not hear, And the Mighty doth not behold it.
field: 18035014
18
35
14
Yea, though thou sayest thou dost not behold Him, Judgment `is' before Him, and stay for Him.
field: 18035015
18
35
15
And, now, because there is not, He hath appointed His anger, And He hath not known in great extremity.
field: 18035016
18
35
16
And Job `with' vanity doth open his mouth, Without knowledge words he multiplieth.
field: 18036001
18
36
1
And Elihu addeth and saith: --
field: 18036002
18
36
2
Honour me a little, and I shew thee, That yet for God `are' words.
field: 18036003
18
36
3
I lift up my knowledge from afar, And to my Maker I ascribe righteousness.
field: 18036004
18
36
4
For, truly, my words `are' not false, The perfect in knowledge `is' with thee.
field: 18036005
18
36
5
Lo, God `is' mighty, and despiseth not, Mighty `in' power `and' heart.
field: 18036006
18
36
6
He reviveth not the wicked, And the judgment of the poor appointeth;
field: 18036007
18
36
7
He withdraweth not from the righteous His eyes, And `from' kings on the throne, And causeth them to sit for ever, and they are high,
field: 18036008
18
36
8
And if prisoners in fetters They are captured with cords of affliction,
field: 18036009
18
36
9
Then He declareth to them their work, And their transgressions, Because they have become mighty,
field: 18036010
18
36
10
And He uncovereth their ear for instruction, And saith that they turn back from iniquity.
field: 18036011
18
36
11
If they do hear and serve, They complete their days in good, And their years in pleasantness.
field: 18036012
18
36
12
And if they do not hearken, By the dart they pass away, And expire without knowledge.
field: 18036013
18
36
13
And the profane in heart set the face, They cry not when He hath bound them.
field: 18036014
18
36
14
Their soul dieth in youth, And their life among the defiled.
field: 18036015
18
36
15
He draweth out the afflicted in his affliction, And uncovereth in oppression their ear.
field: 18036016
18
36
16
And also He moved thee from a strait place, `To' a broad place -- no straitness under it, And the sitting beyond of thy table Hath been full of fatness.
field: 18036017
18
36
17
And the judgment of the wicked thou hast fulfilled, Judgment and justice are upheld -- because of fury,
field: 18036018
18
36
18
Lest He move thee with a stroke, And the abundance of an atonement turn thee not aside.
field: 18036019
18
36
19
Doth He value thy riches? He hath gold, and all the forces of power.
field: 18036020
18
36
20
Desire not the night, For the going up of peoples in their stead.
field: 18036021
18
36
21
Take heed -- do not turn unto iniquity, For on this thou hast fixed Rather than `on' affliction.
field: 18036022
18
36
22
Lo, God doth sit on high by His power, Who `is' like Him -- a teacher?
field: 18036023
18
36
23
Who hath appointed unto Him his way? And who said, `Thou hast done iniquity?'
field: 18036024
18
36
24
Remember that thou magnify His work That men have beheld.
field: 18036025
18
36
25
All men have looked on it, Man looketh attentively from afar.
field: 18036026
18
36
26
Lo, God `is' high, And we know not the number of His years, Yea, there `is' no searching.
field: 18036027
18
36
27
When He doth diminish droppings of the waters, They refine rain according to its vapour,
field: 18036028
18
36
28
Which clouds do drop, They distil on man abundantly.
field: 18036029
18
36
29
Yea, doth `any' understand The spreadings out of a cloud? The noises of His tabernacle?
field: 18036030
18
36
30
Lo, He hath spread over it His light, And the roots of the sea He hath covered,
field: 18036031
18
36
31
For by them He doth judge peoples, He giveth food in abundance.
field: 18036032
18
36
32
By two palms He hath covered the light, And layeth a charge over it in meeting,
field: 18036033
18
36
33
He sheweth by it `to' his friend substance, Anger against perversity.
field: 18037001
18
37
1
Also, at this my heart trembleth, And it moveth from its place.
field: 18037002
18
37
2
Hearken diligently to the trembling of His voice, Yea, the sound from His mouth goeth forth.
field: 18037003
18
37
3
Under the whole heavens He directeth it, And its light `is' over the skirts of the earth.
field: 18037004
18
37
4
After it roar doth a voice -- He thundereth with the voice of His excellency, And He doth not hold them back, When His voice is heard.
field: 18037005
18
37
5
God thundereth with His voice wonderfully, Doing great things and we know not.
field: 18037006
18
37
6
For to snow He saith, `Be `on' the earth.' And the small rain and great rain of His power.
field: 18037007
18
37
7
Into the hand of every man he sealeth, For the knowledge by all men of His work.
field: 18037008
18
37
8
And enter doth the beast into covert, And in its habitations it doth continue.
field: 18037009
18
37
9
From the inner chamber cometh a hurricane, And from scatterings winds -- cold,
field: 18037010
18
37
10
From the breath of God is frost given, And the breadth of waters is straitened,
field: 18037011
18
37
11
Yea, by filling He doth press out a cloud, Scatter a cloud doth His light.
field: 18037012
18
37
12
And it is turning itself round by His counsels, For their doing all He commandeth them, On the face of the habitable earth.
field: 18037013
18
37
13
Whether for a rod, or for His land, Or for kindness -- He doth cause it to come.
field: 18037014
18
37
14
Hear this, O Job, Stand and consider the wonders of God.
field: 18037015
18
37
15
Dost thou know when God doth place them, And caused to shine the light of His cloud?
field: 18037016
18
37
16
Dost thou know the balancings of a cloud? The wonders of the Perfect in knowledge?
field: 18037017
18
37
17
How thy garments `are' warm, In the quieting of the earth from the south?
field: 18037018
18
37
18
Thou hast made an expanse with Him For the clouds -- strong as a hard mirror!
field: 18037019
18
37
19
Let us know what we say to Him, We set not in array because of darkness.
field: 18037020
18
37
20
Is it declared to Him that I speak? If a man hath spoken, surely he is swallowed up.
field: 18037021
18
37
21
And now, they have not seen the light, Bright it `is' in the clouds, And the wind hath passed by and cleanseth them.
field: 18037022
18
37
22
From the golden north it cometh, Beside God `is' fearful honour.
field: 18037023
18
37
23
The Mighty! we have not found Him out, High in power and judgment, He doth not answer! And abundant in righteousness,
field: 18037024
18
37
24
Therefore do men fear Him, He seeth not any of the wise of heart.
field: 18038001
18
38
1
And Jehovah answereth Job out of the whirlwind, and saith: --
field: 18038002
18
38
2
Who `is' this -- darkening counsel, By words without knowledge?
field: 18038003
18
38
3
Gird, I pray thee, as a man, thy loins, And I ask thee, and cause thou Me to know.
field: 18038004
18
38
4
Where wast thou when I founded earth? Declare, if thou hast known understanding.
field: 18038005
18
38
5
Who placed its measures -- if thou knowest? Or who hath stretched out upon it a line?
field: 18038006
18
38
6
On what have its sockets been sunk? Or who hath cast its corner-stone?
field: 18038007
18
38
7
In the singing together of stars of morning, And all sons of God shout for joy,
field: 18038008
18
38
8
And He shutteth up with doors the sea, In its coming forth, from the womb it goeth out.
field: 18038009
18
38
9
In My making a cloud its clothing, And thick darkness its swaddling band,
field: 18038010
18
38
10
And I measure over it My statute, And place bar and doors,
field: 18038011
18
38
11
And say, `Hitherto come thou, and add not, And a command is placed On the pride of thy billows.'
field: 18038012
18
38
12
Hast thou commanded morning since thy days? Causest thou the dawn to know its place?
field: 18038013
18
38
13
To take hold on the skirts of the earth, And the wicked are shaken out of it,
field: 18038014
18
38
14
It turneth itself as clay of a seal And they station themselves as clothed.
field: 18038015
18
38
15
And withheld from the wicked is their light, And the arm lifted up is broken.
field: 18038016
18
38
16
Hast thou come in to springs of the sea? And in searching the deep Hast thou walked up and down?
field: 18038017
18
38
17
Revealed to thee were the gates of death? And the gates of death-shade dost thou see?
field: 18038018
18
38
18
Thou hast understanding, Even unto the broad places of earth! Declare -- if thou hast known it all.
field: 18038019
18
38
19
Where `is' this -- the way light dwelleth? And darkness, where `is' this -- its place?
field: 18038020
18
38
20
That thou dost take it unto its boundary, And that thou dost understand The paths of its house.
field: 18038021
18
38
21
Thou hast known -- for then thou art born And the number of thy days `are' many!
field: 18038022
18
38
22
Hast thou come in unto the treasure of snow? Yea, the treasures of hail dost thou see?
field: 18038023
18
38
23
That I have kept back for a time of distress, For a day of conflict and battle.
field: 18038024
18
38
24
Where `is' this, the way light is apportioned? It scattereth an east wind over the earth.
field: 18038025
18
38
25
Who hath divided for the flood a conduit? And a way for the lightning of the voices?
field: 18038026
18
38
26
To cause `it' to rain on a land -- no man, A wilderness -- no man in it.
field: 18038027
18
38
27
To satisfy a desolate and waste place, And to cause to shoot up The produce of the tender grass?
field: 18038028
18
38
28
Hath the rain a father? Or who hath begotten the drops of dew?
field: 18038029
18
38
29
From whose belly came forth the ice? And the hoar-frost of the heavens, Who hath begotten it?
field: 18038030
18
38
30
As a stone waters are hidden, And the face of the deep is captured.
field: 18038031
18
38
31
Dost thou bind sweet influences of Kimah? Or the attractions of Kesil dost thou open?
field: 18038032
18
38
32
Dost thou bring out Mazzaroth in its season? And Aysh for her sons dost thou comfort?
field: 18038033
18
38
33
Hast thou known the statutes of heaven? Or dost thou appoint Its dominion in the earth?
field: 18038034
18
38
34
Dost thou lift up to the cloud thy voice, And abundance of water doth cover thee?
field: 18038035
18
38
35
Dost thou send out lightnings, and they go And say unto thee, `Behold us?'
field: 18038036
18
38
36
Who hath put in the inward parts wisdom? Or who hath given To the covered part understanding?
field: 18038037
18
38
37
Who doth number the clouds by wisdom? And the bottles of the heavens, Who doth cause to lie down,
field: 18038038
18
38
38
In the hardening of dust into hardness, And clods cleave together?
field: 18038039
18
38
39
Dost thou hunt for a lion prey? And the desire of young lions fulfil?
field: 18038040
18
38
40
When they bow down in dens -- Abide in a thicket for a covert?
field: 18038041
18
38
41
Who doth prepare for a raven his provision, When his young ones cry unto God? They wander without food.
field: 18039001
18
39
1
Hast thou known the time of The bearing of the wild goats of the rock? The bringing forth of hinds thou dost mark!
field: 18039002
18
39
2
Thou dost number the months they fulfil? And thou hast known the time of their bringing forth!
field: 18039003
18
39
3
They bow down, Their young ones they bring forth safely, Their pangs they cast forth.
field: 18039004
18
39
4
Safe are their young ones, They grow up in the field, they have gone out, And have not returned to them.
field: 18039005
18
39
5
Who hath sent forth the wild ass free? Yea, the bands of the wild ass who opened?
field: 18039006
18
39
6
Whose house I have made the wilderness, And his dwellings the barren land,
field: 18039007
18
39
7
He doth laugh at the multitude of a city, The cries of an exactor he heareth not.
field: 18039008
18
39
8
The range of mountains `is' his pasture, And after every green thing he seeketh.
field: 18039009
18
39
9
Is a Reem willing to serve thee? Doth he lodge by thy crib?
field: 18039010
18
39
10
Dost thou bind a Reem in a furrow `with' his thick band? Doth he harrow valleys after thee?
field: 18039011
18
39
11
Dost thou trust in him because great `is' his power? And dost thou leave unto him thy labour?
field: 18039012
18
39
12
Dost thou trust in him That he doth bring back thy seed? And `to' thy threshing-floor doth gather `it'?
field: 18039013
18
39
13
The wing of the rattling ones exulteth, Whether the pinion of the ostrich or hawk.
field: 18039014
18
39
14
For she leaveth on the earth her eggs, And on the dust she doth warm them,
field: 18039015
18
39
15
And she forgetteth that a foot may press it, And a beast of the field tread it down.
field: 18039016
18
39
16
Her young ones it hath hardened without her, In vain `is' her labour without fear.
field: 18039017
18
39
17
For God hath caused her to forget wisdom, And He hath not given a portion To her in understanding:
field: 18039018
18
39
18
At the time on high she lifteth herself up, She laugheth at the horse and at his rider.
field: 18039019
18
39
19
Dost thou give to the horse might? Dost thou clothe his neck `with' a mane?
field: 18039020
18
39
20
Dost thou cause him to rush as a locust? The majesty of his snorting `is' terrible.
field: 18039021
18
39
21
They dig in a valley, and he rejoiceth in power, He goeth forth to meet the armour.
field: 18039022
18
39
22
He laugheth at fear, and is not affrighted, And he turneth not back from the face of the sword.
field: 18039023
18
39
23
Against him rattle doth quiver, The flame of a spear, and a halbert.
field: 18039024
18
39
24
With trembling and rage he swalloweth the ground, And remaineth not stedfast Because of the sound of a trumpet.
field: 18039025
18
39
25
Among the trumpets he saith, Aha, And from afar he doth smell battle, Roaring of princes and shouting.
field: 18039026
18
39
26
By thine understanding flieth a hawk? Spreadeth he his wings to the south?
field: 18039027
18
39
27
At thy command goeth an eagle up high? Or lifteth he up his nest?
field: 18039028
18
39
28
A rock he doth inhabit, Yea, he lodgeth on the tooth of a rock, and fortress.
field: 18039029
18
39
29
From thence he hath sought food, To a far off place his eyes look attentively,
field: 18039030
18
39
30
And his brood gulph up blood, And where the pierced `are' -- there `is' he!
field: 18040001
18
40
1
And Jehovah doth answer Job, and saith: --
field: 18040002
18
40
2
Is the striver with the Mighty instructed? The reprover of God, let him answer it.
field: 18040003
18
40
3
And Job answereth Jehovah, and saith: --
field: 18040004
18
40
4
Lo, I have been vile, What do I return to Thee? My hand I have placed on my mouth.
field: 18040005
18
40
5
Once I have spoken, and I answer not, And twice, and I add not.
field: 18040006
18
40
6
And Jehovah answereth Job out of the whirlwind, and saith: --
field: 18040007
18
40
7
Gird, I pray thee, as a man, thy loins, I ask thee, and cause thou Me to know.
field: 18040008
18
40
8
Dost thou also make void My judgment? Dost thou condemn Me, That thou mayest be righteous?
field: 18040009
18
40
9
And an arm like God hast thou? And with a voice like Him dost thou thunder?
field: 18040010
18
40
10
Put on, I pray thee, excellency and loftiness, Yea, honour and beauty put on.
field: 18040011
18
40
11
Scatter abroad the wrath of thine anger, And see every proud one, and make him low.
field: 18040012
18
40
12
See every proud one -- humble him, And tread down the wicked in their place.
field: 18040013
18
40
13
Hide them in the dust together, Their faces bind in secret.
field: 18040014
18
40
14
And even I -- I do praise thee, For thy right hand giveth salvation to thee.
field: 18040015
18
40

Lo, I pray thee, Behemoth, that I made with thee: Grass as an ox he eateth.
field: 18040016

16
Lo, I pray thee, his power `is' in his loins, And his strength in the muscles of his belly.
field: 18040017
18
40
17
He doth bend his tail as a cedar, The sinews of his thighs are wrapped together,
field: 18040018
18
40
18
His bones `are' tubes of brass, His bones `are' as a bar of iron.
field: 18040019
18
40
19
He `is' a beginning of the ways of God, His Maker bringeth nigh his sword;
field: 18040020
18
40
20
For food do mountains bear for him, And all the beasts of the field play there.
field: 18040021
18
40
21
Under shades he lieth down, In a secret place of reed and mire.
field: 18040022
18
40
22
Cover him do shades, `with' their shadow, Cover him do willows of the brook.
field: 18040023
18
40
23
Lo, a flood oppresseth -- he doth not haste, He is confident though Jordan Doth come forth unto his mouth.
field: 18040024
18
40
24
Before his eyes doth `one' take him, With snares doth `one' pierce the nose?
field: 18041001
18
41
1
Dost thou draw leviathan with an angle? And with a rope thou lettest down -- his tongue?
field: 18041002
18
41
2
Dost thou put a reed in his nose? And with a thorn pierce his jaw?
field: 18041003
18
41
3
Doth he multiply unto thee supplications? Doth he speak unto thee tender things?
field: 18041004
18
41
4
Doth he make a covenant with thee? Dost thou take him for a servant age-during?
field: 18041005
18
41
5
Dost thou play with him as a bird? And dost thou bind him for thy damsels?
field: 18041006
18
41
6
(Feast upon him do companions, They divide him among the merchants!)
field: 18041007
18
41
7
Dost thou fill with barbed irons his skin? And with fish-spears his head?
field: 18041008
18
41
8
Place on him thy hand, Remember the battle -- do not add!
field: 18041009
18
41
9
Lo, the hope of him is found a liar, Also at his appearance is not one cast down?
field: 18041010
18
41
10
None so fierce that he doth awake him, And who `is' he before Me stationeth himself?
field: 18041011
18

11
Who hath brought before Me and I repay? Under the whole heavens it `is' mine.

I do not keep silent concerning his parts, And the matter of might, And the grace of his arrangement.
field: 18041013
18
41
13
Who hath uncovered the face of his clothing? Within his double bridle who doth enter?
field: 18041014
18
41
14
The doors of his face who hath opened? Round about his teeth `are' terrible.
field: 18041015
18
41
15
A pride -- strong ones of shields, Shut up -- a close seal.
field: 18041016
18

16
One unto another they draw nigh, And air doth not enter between them.
field: 18041017
18
41
17
One unto another they adhere, They stick together and are not separated.
field: 18041018
18

18
His sneezings cause light to shine, And his eyes `are' as the eyelids of the dawn.
field: 18041019
18
41
19
Out of his mouth do flames go, sparks of fire escape.
field: 18041020
18
41
20
Out of his nostrils goeth forth smoke, As a blown pot and reeds.
field: 18041021
18
41
21
His breath setteth coals on fire, And a flame from his mouth goeth forth.
field: 18041022
18
41
22
In his neck lodge doth strength, And before him doth grief exult.
field: 18041023
18
41
23
The flakes of his flesh have adhered -- Firm upon him -- it is not moved.
field: 18041024
18
41
24
His heart `is' firm as a stone, Yea, firm as the lower piece.
field: 18041025
18
41
25
From his rising are the mighty afraid, From breakings they keep themselves free.
field: 18041026
18
41
26
The sword of his overtaker standeth not, Spear -- dart -- and lance.
field: 18041027
18
41
27
He reckoneth iron as straw, brass as rotten wood.
field: 18041028
18
41
28
The son of the bow doth not cause him to flee, Turned by him into stubble are stones of the sling.
field: 18041029
18
41
29
As stubble have darts been reckoned, And he laugheth at the shaking of a javelin.
field: 18041030
18
41
30
Under him `are' sharp points of clay, He spreadeth gold on the mire.
field: 18041031
18
41
31
He causeth to boil as a pot the deep, The sea he maketh as a pot of ointment.
field: 18041032
18
41
32
After him he causeth a path to shine, One thinketh the deep to be hoary.
field: 18041033
18
41
33
There is not on the earth his like, That is made without terror.
field: 18041034

Every high thing he doth see, He `is' king over all sons of pride.

And Job answereth Jehovah and saith: --
field: 18042002
18
42
2
Thou hast known that `for' all things Thou art able, And not withheld from Thee is `any' device:
field: 18042003
18
42
3
`Who `is' this, hiding counsel without knowledge?' Therefore, I have declared, and understand not, Too wonderful for me, and I know not.
field: 18042004
18
42
4
`Hear, I pray thee, and I -- I do speak, I ask thee, and cause thou me to know.'
field: 18042005
18
42
5
By the hearing of the ear I heard Thee, And now mine eye hath seen Thee.
field: 18042006
18
42
6
Therefore do I loathe `it', And I have repented on dust and ashes.
field: 18042007
18
42
7
And it cometh to pass after Jehovah's speaking these words unto Job, that Jehovah saith unto Eliphaz the Temanite, `Burned hath Mine anger against thee, and against thy two friends, because ye have not spoken concerning Me rightly, like My servant Job.
field: 18042008
18
42
8
And now, take to you seven bullocks and seven rams, and go ye unto My servant Job, and ye have caused a burnt-offering to ascend for you; and Job My servant doth pray for you, for surely his face I accept, so as not to do with you folly, because ye have not spoken concerning Me rightly, like My servant Job.
field: 18042009
18
42
9
And they go -- Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, Zophar the Naamathite -- and do as Jehovah hath spoken unto them; and Jehovah doth accept the face of Job.
field: 18042010
18
42
10
And Jehovah hath turned `to' the captivity of Job in his praying for his friends, and Jehovah doth add `to' all that Job hath -- to double.
field: 18042011
18
42
11
And come unto him do all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all his former acquaintances, and they eat bread with him in his house, and bemoan him, and comfort him concerning all the evil that Jehovah had brought upon him, and they gave to him each one kesitah, and each one ring of gold.
field: 18042012
18
42
12
And Jehovah hath blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning, and he hath fourteen thousand of a flock, and six thousand camels, and a thousand pairs of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.
field: 18042013
18
42
13
And he hath seven sons and three daughters;
field: 18042014
18
42
14
and he calleth the name of the one Jemima, and the name of the second Kezia, and the name of the third Keren-Happuch.
field: 18042015
18
42
15
And there have not been found women fair as the daughters of Job in all the land, and their father doth give to them an inheritance in the midst of their brethren.
field: 18042016
18
42
16
And Job liveth after this a hundred and forty years, and seeth his sons, and his sons' sons, four generations;
field: 18042017
18
42
17
and Job dieth, aged and satisfied `with' days.

2
But -- in the law of Jehovah `is' his delight, And in His law he doth meditate by day and by night:
field: 19001003
19

And he hath been as a tree, Planted by rivulets of water, That giveth its fruit in its season, And its leaf doth not wither, And all that he doth he causeth to prosper.

Not so the wicked: But -- as chaff that wind driveth away!

Therefore the wicked rise not in judgment, Nor sinners in the company of the righteous,

`And I -- I have anointed My King, Upon Zion -- My holy hill.'

Ask of Me and I give nations -- thy inheritance, And thy possession -- the ends of earth.

Why, Jehovah, dost Thou stand at a distance? Thou dost hide in times of adversity,

10
2
Through the pride of the wicked, Is the poor inflamed, They are caught in devices that they devised.
field: 19010003
19
10

Because the wicked hath boasted Of the desire of his soul, And a dishonest gainer he hath blessed, He hath despised Jehovah.

He hath said in his heart, `I am not moved,' To generation and generation not in evil.

7
Of oaths his mouth is full, And deceits, and fraud: Under his tongue `is' perverseness and iniquity,
field: 19010008
19
10
8
He doth sit in an ambush of the villages, In secret places he doth slay the innocent. His eyes for the afflicted watch secretly,
field: 19010009
19
10

He lieth in wait in a secret place, as a lion in a covert. He lieth in wait to catch the poor, He catcheth the poor, drawing him into his net.

He is bruised -- he boweth down, Fallen by his mighty ones hath the afflicted.

Vanity they speak each with his neighbour, Lip of flattery! With heart and heart they speak.

Jehovah from the heavens Hath looked on the sons of men, To see if there is a wise one -- seeking God.

For Thou dost not leave my soul to Sheol, Nor givest thy saintly one to see corruption.

Cords of Sheol have surrounded me, Before me have been snares of death.

In mine adversity I call Jehovah, And unto my God I cry. He heareth from His temple my voice, And My cry before Him cometh into His ears.

And shake and tremble doth the earth, And foundations of hills are troubled, And they shake -- because He hath wrath.

Gone up hath smoke by His nostrils, And fire from His mouth consumeth, Coals have been kindled by it.
field: 19018009
19
18

And He inclineth the heavens, and cometh down, And thick darkness `is' under His feet.
field: 19018010
19
18
10
And He rideth on a cherub, and doth fly, And He flieth on wings of wind.
field: 19018011

18
11
He maketh darkness His secret place, Round about Him His tabernacle, Darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

From the brightness over-against Him His thick clouds have passed on, Hail and coals of fire.

And thunder in the heavens doth Jehovah, And the Most High giveth forth His voice, Hail and coals of fire.

And seen are the streams of waters, And revealed are foundations of the earth. From Thy rebuke, O Jehovah, From the breath of the spirit of Thine anger.

He sendeth from above -- He taketh me, He draweth me out of many waters.

He delivereth me from my strong enemy, And from those hating me, For they have been stronger than I.

And He bringeth me forth to a large place, He draweth me out, because He delighted in me.

20
Jehovah doth recompense me According to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands, He doth return to me.

For I have kept the ways of Jehovah, And have not done wickedly against my God.

For Thou a poor people savest, And the eyes of the high causest to fall.

Teaching my hands for battle, And a bow of brass was brought down by my arms.

And Thou givest to me the shield of Thy salvation, And Thy right hand doth support me, And Thy lowliness maketh me great.
field: 19018036
19
18
36
Thou enlargest my step under me, And mine ankles have not slidden.
field: 19018037
19
18
37
I pursue mine enemies, and overtake them, And turn back not till they are consumed.
field: 19018038
19
18
38
I smite them, and they are not able to rise, They fall under my feet,

And Thou girdest me `with' strength for battle, Causest my withstanders to bow under me.
field: 19018040

40
As to mine enemies -- Thou hast given to me the neck, As to those hating me -- I cut them off.

They cry, and there is no saviour, On Jehovah, and He doth not answer them.

And I beat them as dust before wind, As mire of the streets I empty them out.
field: 19018043

Thou dost deliver me From the strivings of the people, Thou placest me for a head of nations, A people I have not known do serve me.

18
44
At the hearing of the ear they hearken to me, Sons of a stranger feign obedience to me,

Sons of a stranger fade away, And are slain out of their close places.

Life he hath asked from Thee, Thou hast given to him -- length of days, Age-during -- and for ever.

I count all my bones -- they look expectingly, They look upon me,

Though a host doth encamp against me, My heart doth not fear, Though war riseth up against me, In this I `am' confident.
field: 19027004
19
27

One `thing' I asked of Jehovah -- it I seek. My dwelling in the house of Jehovah, All the days of my life, To look on the pleasantness of Jehovah, And to inquire in His temple.
field: 19027005
19
27

For He hideth me in a tabernacle in the day of evil, He hideth me in a secret place of His tent, On a rock he raiseth me up.
field: 19027006

And now, lifted up is my head, Above my enemies -- my surrounders, And I sacrifice in His tent sacrifices of shouting, I sing, yea, I sing praise to Jehovah.

Hide not Thy face from me, Turn not aside in anger Thy servant, My help Thou hast been. Leave me not, nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.

Draw me not with the wicked, And with workers of iniquity, Speaking peace with their neighbours, And evil in their heart.

Give to them according to their acting, And according to the evil of their doings. According to the work of their hands give to them. Return their deed to them.
field: 19028005

For they attend not to the doing of Jehovah, And unto the work of His hands. He throweth them down, And doth not build them up.

Blessed `is' Jehovah, For He hath heard the voice of my supplications.

Favour me, O Jehovah, for distress `is' to me, Mine eye, my soul, and my body Have become old by provocation.

For my life hath been consumed in sorrow And my years in sighing. Feeble because of mine iniquity hath been my strength, And my bones have become old.

In Thy hand `are' my times, Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, And from my pursuers.
field: 19031016
19
31
16
Cause Thy face to shine on Thy servant, Save me in Thy kindness.
field: 19031017

17
O Jehovah, let me not be ashamed, For I have called Thee, let the wicked be ashamed, Let them become silent to Sheol.
field: 19031018
19
31
18
Let lips of falsehood become dumb, That are speaking against the righteous, Ancient sayings, in pride and contempt.

19
31
19
How abundant is Thy goodness, That Thou hast laid up for those fearing Thee,
field: 19031020
19
31
20
Thou hast wrought for those trusting in Thee, Before sons of men. Thou hidest them in the secret place of Thy presence, From artifices of man, Thou concealest them in a tabernacle, From the strife of tongues.
field: 19031021
19
31
21
Blessed `is' Jehovah, For He hath made marvellous His kindness To me in a city of bulwarks.
field: 19031022
19

22
And I -- I have said in my haste, `I have been cut off from before Thine eyes,' But Thou hast heard the voice of my supplications, In my crying unto Thee.
field: 19031023

Love Jehovah, all ye His saints, Jehovah is keeping the faithful, And recompensing abundantly a proud doer.

Be strong, and He strengtheneth your heart, All ye who are waiting for Jehovah!

When I have kept silence, become old have my bones, Through my roaring all the day.

When by day and by night Thy hand is heavy upon me, My moisture hath been changed Into the droughts of summer. Selah.
field: 19032005

My sin I cause Thee to know, And mine iniquity I have not covered. I have said, `I confess concerning My transgressions to Jehovah,' And Thou -- Thou hast taken away, The iniquity of my sin. Selah.
field: 19032006

For this doth every saintly one pray to Thee, As the time to find. Surely at an overflowing of many waters, Unto him they come not.

Thou `art' a hiding-place for me, From distress Thou dost keep me, `With' songs of deliverance dost compass me. Selah.

I cause thee to act wisely, And direct thee in the way that thou goest, I cause mine eye to take counsel concerning thee.

Be ye not as a horse -- as a mule, Without understanding, With bridle and bit, its ornaments, to curb, Not to come near unto thee.

Many `are' the pains of the wicked; As to him who is trusting in Jehovah, Kindness doth compass him.

Give ye thanks to Jehovah with a harp, With psaltery of ten strings sing praise to Him,

Sing ye to Him a new song, Play skilfully with shouting.

Afraid of Jehovah are all the earth, Of Him are all the inhabitants of the world afraid.

For He hath said, and it is, He hath commanded, and it standeth.
field: 19033010

Jehovah made void the counsel of nations, He disallowed the thoughts of the peoples.

The counsel of Jehovah to the age standeth, The thoughts of His heart to all generations.

From the heavens hath Jehovah looked, He hath seen all the sons of men.

From the fixed place of His dwelling, He looked unto all inhabitants of the earth;
field: 19033015

Who is forming their hearts together, Who is attending unto all their works.

The king is not saved by the multitude of a force. A mighty man is not delivered, By abundance of power.

A false thing `is' the horse for safety, And by the abundance of his strength He doth not deliver.

Lo, the eye of Jehovah `is' to those fearing Him, To those waiting for His kindness,

To deliver from death their soul, And to keep them alive in famine.

Take hold of shield and buckler, and rise for my help,
field: 19035003

And draw out spear and lance, To meet my pursuers. Say to my soul, `Thy salvation I `am'.'
field: 19035004

They are ashamed and blush, those seeking my soul, Turned backward and confounded, Those devising my evil.

They are as chaff before wind, And a messenger of Jehovah driving away.

Their way is darkness and slipperiness, And a messenger of Jehovah their pursuer.

Meet him doth desolation -- he knoweth not, And his net that he hid catcheth him, For desolation he falleth into it.

They pay me evil for good, bereaving my soul,

As `if' a friend, as `if' my brother, I walked habitually, As a mourner for a mother, Mourning I have bowed down.

And -- in my halting they have rejoiced, And have been gathered together, Gathered against me were the smiters, And I have not known, They have rent, and they have not ceased;
field: 19035016
19
35
16
With profane ones, mockers in feasts, Gnashing against me their teeth.

Lord, how long dost thou behold? Keep back my soul from their desolations, From young lions my only one.

I thank Thee in a great assembly, Among a mighty people I praise Thee.

Mine enemies rejoice not over me `with' falsehood, Those hating me without cause wink the eye.

And they enlarge against me their mouth, They said, `Aha, aha, our eye hath seen.'

Thou hast seen, O Jehovah, Be not silent, O Lord -- be not far from me,

19
35
23
Stir up, and wake to my judgment, My God, and my Lord, to my plea.
field: 19035024

35
24
Judge me according to Thy righteousness, O Jehovah my God, And they do not rejoice over me.
field: 19035025

35
25
They do not say in their heart, `Aha, our desire.' They do not say, `We swallowed him up.'
field: 19035026

They are ashamed and confounded together, Who are rejoicing at my evil. They put on shame and confusion, Who are magnifying themselves against me.

They sing and rejoice, who are desiring my righteousness, And they say continually, `Jehovah is magnified, Who is desiring the peace of His servant.'

And my tongue uttereth Thy righteousness, All the day Thy praise!

To the Overseer. -- By a servant of Jehovah, by David. The transgression of the wicked Is affirming within my heart, `Fear of God is not before his eyes,
field: 19036002

For he made `it' smooth to himself in his eyes, To find his iniquity to be hated.
field: 19036003
19
36
3
The words of his mouth `are' iniquity and deceit, He ceased to act prudently -- to do good.
field: 19036004

36

Iniquity he deviseth on his bed, He stationeth himself on a way not good, Evil he doth not refuse.'

O Jehovah, in the heavens `is' Thy kindness, Thy faithfulness `is' unto the clouds.
field: 19036006
19

Thy righteousness `is' as mountains of God, Thy judgments `are' a great deep. Man and beast Thou savest, O Jehovah.
field: 19036007
19
36
7
How precious `is' Thy kindness, O God, And the sons of men In the shadow of Thy wings do trust.
field: 19036008
19
36
8
They are filled from the fatness of Thy house, And the stream of Thy delights Thou dost cause them to drink.
field: 19036009
19
36
9
For with Thee `is' a fountain of life, In Thy light we see light.
field: 19036010
19
36
10
Draw out Thy kindness to those knowing Thee, And Thy righteousness to the upright of heart.
field: 19036011
19
36
11
Let not a foot of pride meet me, And a hand of the wicked let not move me.

There have workers of iniquity fallen, They have been overthrown, And have not been able to arise!

By David. Do not fret because of evil doers, Be not envious against doers of iniquity,
field: 19037002
19
37
2
For as grass speedily they are cut off, And as the greenness of the tender grass do fade.
field: 19037003
19
37
3
Trust in Jehovah, and do good, Dwell `in' the land, and enjoy faithfulness,
field: 19037004
19
37
4
And delight thyself on Jehovah, And He giveth to thee the petitions of thy heart.
field: 19037005
19
37
5
Roll on Jehovah thy way, And trust upon Him, and He worketh,
field: 19037006
19
37
6
And hath brought out as light thy righteousness, And thy judgment as noon-day.
field: 19037007
19
37
7
Be silent for Jehovah, and stay thyself for Him, Do not fret because of him Who is making prosperous his way, Because of a man doing wicked devices.
field: 19037008
19
37
8
Desist from anger, and forsake fury, Fret not thyself only to do evil.
field: 19037009
19
37
9
For evil doers are cut off, As to those waiting on Jehovah, they possess the land.
field: 19037010
19
37
10
And yet a little, and the wicked is not, And thou hast considered his place, and it is not.
field: 19037011
19
37
11
And the humble do possess the land, And they have delighted themselves In the abundance of peace.
field: 19037012
19
37
12
The wicked is devising against the righteous, And gnashing against him his teeth.
field: 19037013
19
37
13
The Lord doth laugh at him, For He hath seen that his day cometh.
field: 19037014
19
37
14
A sword have the wicked opened, And they have trodden their bow, To cause to fall the poor and needy, To slaughter the upright of the way.
field: 19037015
19
37
15
Their sword doth enter into their own heart, And their bows are shivered.
field: 19037016
19
37
16
Better `is' the little of the righteous, Than the store of many wicked.
field: 19037017
19
37
17
For the arms of the wicked are shivered, And Jehovah is sustaining the righteous.
field: 19037018
19
37
18
Jehovah knoweth the days of the perfect, And their inheritance is -- to the age.
field: 19037019
19
37
19
They are not ashamed in a time of evil, And in days of famine they are satisfied.
field: 19037020
19
37
20
But the wicked perish, and the enemies of Jehovah, As the preciousness of lambs, Have been consumed, In smoke they have been consumed.
field: 19037021
19
37
21
The wicked is borrowing and repayeth not, And the righteous is gracious and giving.
field: 19037022
19
37
22
For His blessed ones do possess the land, And His reviled ones are cut off.
field: 19037023
19
37
23
From Jehovah `are' the steps of a man, They have been prepared, And his way he desireth.
field: 19037024
19
37
24
When he falleth, he is not cast down, For Jehovah is sustaining his hand.
field: 19037025
19
37
25
Young I have been, I have also become old, And I have not seen the righteous forsaken, And his seed seeking bread.
field: 19037026
19
37
26
All the day he is gracious and lending, And his seed `is' for a blessing.
field: 19037027
19
37
27
Turn aside from evil, and do good, and dwell to the age.
field: 19037028
19
37
28
For Jehovah is loving judgment, And He doth not forsake His saintly ones, To the age they have been kept, And the seed of the wicked is cut off.
field: 19037029
19
37
29
The righteous possess the land, And they dwell for ever on it.
field: 19037030
19
37
30
The mouth of the righteous uttereth wisdom, And his tongue speaketh judgment.
field: 19037031
19
37
31
The law of his God `is' his heart, His steps do not slide.
field: 19037032
19
37
32
The wicked is watching for the righteous, And is seeking to put him to death.
field: 19037033
19
37
33
Jehovah doth not leave him in his hand, Nor condemn him in his being judged.
field: 19037034
19
37
34
Look unto Jehovah, and keep His way, And He doth exalt thee to possess the land, In the wicked being cut off -- thou seest!
field: 19037035
19
37
35
I have seen the wicked terrible, And spreading as a green native plant,
field: 19037036
19
37
36
And he passeth away, and lo, he is not, And I seek him, and he is not found!
field: 19037037
19
37
37
Observe the perfect, and see the upright, For the latter end of each `is' peace.
field: 19037038
19
37
38
And transgressors were destroyed together, The latter end of the wicked was cut off.
field: 19037039
19
37
39
And the salvation of the righteous `is' from Jehovah, Their strong place in a time of adversity.
field: 19037040
19
37
40
And Jehovah doth help them and deliver them, He delivereth them from the wicked, And saveth them, Because they trusted in Him!

A Psalm of David, `To cause to remember.' Jehovah, in Thy wrath reprove me not, Nor in Thy fury chastise me.
field: 19038002
19
38
2
For Thine arrows have come down on me, And Thou lettest down upon me Thy hand.
field: 19038003
19
38
3
Soundness is not in my flesh, Because of Thine indignation, Peace is not in my bones because of my sin.
field: 19038004
19
38
4
For mine iniquities have passed over my head, As a heavy burden -- too heavy for me.
field: 19038005
19
38
5
Stunk -- become corrupt have my wounds, Because of my folly.
field: 19038006
19
38
6
I have been bent down, I have been bowed down -- unto excess, All the day I have gone mourning.
field: 19038007
19
38
7
For my flanks have been full of drought, And soundness is not in my flesh.
field: 19038008
19
38
8
I have been feeble and smitten -- unto excess, I have roared from disquietude of heart.
field: 19038009
19
38
9
Lord, before Thee `is' all my desire, And my sighing from Thee hath not been hid.
field: 19038010
19
38
10
My heart `is' panting, my power hath forsaken me, And the light of mine eyes, Even they are not with me.
field: 19038011
19
38
11
My lovers and my friends over-against my plague stand. And my neighbours afar off have stood.
field: 19038012
19
38
12
And those seeking my soul lay a snare, And those seeking my evil Have spoken mischievous things, And they do deceits meditate all the day.
field: 19038013
19
38
13
And I, as deaf, hear not. And as a dumb one who openeth not his mouth.
field: 19038014
19
38
14
Yea, I am as a man who heareth not, And in his mouth are no reproofs.
field: 19038015
19
38

And I `am' afflicted and pained, Thy salvation, O God, doth set me on high.
field: 19069030

I praise the name of God with a song, And I magnify Him with thanksgiving,
field: 19069031

And it is better to Jehovah than an ox, A bullock -- horned -- hoofed.

32
The humble have seen -- they rejoice, Ye who seek God -- and your heart liveth.
field: 19069033

For Jehovah hearkeneth unto the needy, And His bound ones He hath not despised.

The heavens and earth do praise Him, Seas, and every moving thing in them.

And the seed of His servants inherit it, And those loving His name dwell in it!

Let them be ashamed and confounded Who are seeking my soul, Let them be turned backward and blush Who are desiring my evil.

Let them turn back because of their shame, Who are saying, `Aha, aha.'

And I `am' poor and needy, O God, haste to me, My help and my deliverer `art' Thou, O Jehovah, tarry Thou not!
field: 19071001

In Thee, O Jehovah, I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed to the age.
field: 19071002

In Thy righteousness Thou dost deliver me, And dost cause me to escape, Incline unto me Thine ear, and save me.
field: 19071003

Be to me for a rock -- a habitation, To go in continually, Thou hast given command to save me, For my rock and my bulwark `art' Thou.
field: 19071004

O my God, cause me to escape From the hand of the wicked, From the hand of the perverse and violent.

For Thou `art' my hope, O Lord Jehovah, My trust from my youth.

By Thee I have been supported from the womb, From my mother's bowels Thou dost cut me out, In Thee `is' my praise continually.

As a wonder I have been to many, And Thou `art' my strong refuge.

Filled is my mouth `with' Thy praise, All the day `with' Thy beauty.

71
9
Cast me not off at the time of old age, According to the consumption of my power forsake me not.
field: 19071010
19
71
10
For mine enemies have spoken against me, And those watching my soul have taken counsel together,
field: 19071011

71
11
Saying, `God hath forsaken him, Pursue and catch him, for there is no deliverer.'
field: 19071012

O God, be not far from me, O my God, for my help make haste.

They are ashamed, they are consumed, Who are opposing my soul, They are covered `with' reproach and blushing, Who are seeking my evil,

And I continually do wait with hope, And have added unto all Thy praise.

My mouth recounteth Thy righteousness, All the day Thy salvation, For I have not known the numbers.

I come in the might of the Lord Jehovah, I mention Thy righteousness -- Thine only.

God, Thou hast taught me from my youth, And hitherto I declare Thy wonders.
field: 19071018

And also unto old age and grey hairs, O God, forsake me not, Till I declare Thy strength to a generation, To every one that cometh Thy might.
field: 19071019

And Thy righteousness, O God, `is' unto the heights, Because Thou hast done great things, O God, who `is' like Thee?
field: 19071020

Because Thou hast showed me many and sad distresses, Thou turnest back -- Thou revivest me, And from the depths of the earth, Thou turnest back -- Thou bringest me up.

Thou dost increase my greatness, And Thou surroundest -- Thou comfortest me,

They fear Thee with the sun, and before the moon, Generation -- generations.

Flourish in his days doth the righteous, And abundance of peace till the moon is not.

And he ruleth from sea unto sea, And from the river unto the ends of earth.

For he delivereth the needy who crieth, And the poor when he hath no helper,

13
He hath pity on the poor and needy, And the souls of the needy he saveth,

14
From fraud and from violence he redeemeth their soul, And precious is their blood in his eyes.
field: 19072015

And he liveth, and giveth to him of the gold of Sheba, And prayeth for him continually, All the day he doth bless him.

Therefore hath pride encircled them, Violence covereth them as a dress.

Their eye hath come out from fat. The imaginations of the heart transgressed;

Only, in slippery places Thou dost set them, Thou hast caused them to fall to desolations.

They said in their hearts, `Let us oppress them together,' They did burn all the meeting-places of God in the land.

Thine `is' the day, also Thine `is' the night, Thou hast prepared a light giver -- the sun.

Thou hast set up all the borders of earth, Summer and winter Thou hast formed them.

I have reckoned the days of old, The years of the ages.

I open with a simile my mouth, I bring forth hidden things of old,

That we have heard and do know, And our fathers have recounted to us.
field: 19078004

We do not hide from their sons, To a later generation recounting praises of Jehovah, And His strength, and His wonders that He hath done.
field: 19078005

And He raiseth up a testimony in Jacob, And a law hath placed in Israel, That He commanded our fathers, To make them known to their sons.
field: 19078006

So that a later generation doth know, Sons who are born, do rise and recount to their sons,

And they are not like their fathers, A generation apostate and rebellious, A generation! it hath not prepared its heart, Nor stedfast with God `is' its spirit.

Sons of Ephraim -- armed bearers of bow, Have turned in a day of conflict.
field: 19078010
19
78
10
They have not kept the covenant of God, And in His law they have refused to walk,
field: 19078011
19
78
11
And they forget His doings, And His wonders that He shewed them.
field: 19078012
19
78
12
Before their fathers He hath done wonders, In the land of Egypt -- the field of Zoan.
field: 19078013
19
78
13
He cleft a sea, and causeth them to pass over, Yea, He causeth waters to stand as a heap.
field: 19078014
19
78
14
And leadeth them with a cloud by day, And all the night with a light of fire.
field: 19078015
19
78
15
He cleaveth rocks in a wilderness, And giveth drink -- as the great deep.
field: 19078016
19
78
16
And bringeth out streams from a rock, And causeth waters to come down as rivers.
field: 19078017
19
78
17
And they add still to sin against Him, To provoke the Most High in the dry place.
field: 19078018
19
78
18
And they try God in their heart, To ask food for their lust.
field: 19078019
19
78
19
And they speak against God -- they said: `Is God able to array a table in a wilderness?'
field: 19078020
19
78
20
Lo, He hath smitten a rock, And waters flow, yea, streams overflow. `Also -- bread `is' He able to give? Doth He prepare flesh for His people?'
field: 19078021
19
78
21
Therefore hath Jehovah heard, And He sheweth Himself wroth, And fire hath been kindled against Jacob, And anger also hath gone up against Israel,
field: 19078022
19
78
22
For they have not believed in God, Nor have they trusted in His salvation.
field: 19078023
19
78
23
And He commandeth clouds from above, Yea, doors of the heavens He hath opened.
field: 19078024
19
78
24
And He raineth on them manna to eat, Yea, corn of heaven He hath given to them.
field: 19078025
19
78
25
Food of the mighty hath each eaten, Venison He sent to them to satiety.
field: 19078026
19
78
26
He causeth an east wind to journey in the heavens, And leadeth by His strength a south wind,
field: 19078027
19
78
27
And He raineth on them flesh as dust, And as sand of the seas -- winged fowl,
field: 19078028
19
78
28
And causeth `it' to fall in the midst of His camp, Round about His tabernacles.
field: 19078029
19
78
29
And they eat, and are greatly satisfied, And their desire He bringeth to them.
field: 19078030
19
78
30
They have not been estranged from their desire, Yet `is' their food in their mouth,
field: 19078031
19
78
31
And the anger of God hath gone up against them, And He slayeth among their fat ones, And youths of Israel He caused to bend.
field: 19078032
19
78
32
With all this they have sinned again, And have not believed in His wonders.
field: 19078033
19
78
33
And He consumeth in vanity their days, And their years in trouble.
field: 19078034
19
78
34
If He slew them, then they sought Him, And turned back, and sought God earnestly,
field: 19078035
19
78
35
And they remember that God `is' their rock, And God Most High their redeemer.
field: 19078036
19
78
36
And -- they deceive Him with their mouth, And with their tongue do lie to Him,
field: 19078037
19
78
37
And their heart hath not been right with Him, And they have not been stedfast in His covenant.
field: 19078038
19
78
38
And He -- the Merciful One, Pardoneth iniquity, and destroyeth not, And hath often turned back His anger, And waketh not up all His fury.
field: 19078039
19
78
39
And He remembereth that they `are' flesh, A wind going on -- and it returneth not.
field: 19078040
19
78
40
How often do they provoke Him in the wilderness, Grieve Him in the desolate place?
field: 19078041
19
78
41
Yea, they turn back, and try God, And the Holy One of Israel have limited.
field: 19078042
19
78
42
They have not remembered His hand The day He ransomed them from the adversary.
field: 19078043
19
78
43
When He set His signs in Egypt, And His wonders in the field of Zoan,
field: 19078044
19
78
44
And He turneth to blood their streams, And their floods they drink not.
field: 19078045
19
78
45
He sendeth among them the beetle, and it consumeth them, And the frog, and it destroyeth them,
field: 19078046
19
78
46
And giveth to the caterpillar their increase, And their labour to the locust.
field: 19078047
19
78
47
He destroyeth with hail their vine, And their sycamores with frost,
field: 19078048
19
78
48
And delivereth up to the hail their beasts, And their cattle to the burning flames.
field: 19078049
19
78
49
He sendeth on them the fury of His anger, Wrath, and indignation, and distress -- A discharge of evil messengers.
field: 19078050
19
78
50
He pondereth a path for His anger, He kept not back their soul from death, Yea, their life to the pestilence He delivered up.
field: 19078051
19
78
51
And He smiteth every first-born in Egypt, The first-fruit of the strong in tents of Ham.
field: 19078052
19
78
52
And causeth His people to journey as a flock, And guideth them as a drove in a wilderness,
field: 19078053
19
78
53
And He leadeth them confidently, And they have not been afraid, And their enemies hath the sea covered.
field: 19078054
19
78
54
And He bringeth them in unto the border of His sanctuary, This mountain His right hand had got,
field: 19078055
19
78
55
And casteth out nations from before them, And causeth them to fall in the line of inheritance, And causeth the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents,
field: 19078056
19
78
56
And they tempt and provoke God Most High, And His testimonies have not kept.
field: 19078057
19
78
57
And they turn back, And deal treacherously like their fathers, They have been turned like a deceitful bow,
field: 19078058
19
78
58
And make Him angry with their high places, And with their graven images make Him zealous,
field: 19078059
19
78
59
God hath heard, and sheweth Himself wroth. And kicketh exceedingly against Israel.
field: 19078060
19
78
60
And He leaveth the tabernacle of Shiloh, The tent He had placed among men,
field: 19078061
19
78
61
And He giveth His strength to captivity, And His beauty into the hand of an adversary,
field: 19078062
19
78
62
And delivereth up to the sword His people, And with His inheritance shewed Himself angry.
field: 19078063
19
78
63
His young men hath fire consumed, And His virgins have not been praised.
field: 19078064
19
78
64
His priests by the sword have fallen, And their widows weep not.
field: 19078065
19
78
65
And the Lord waketh as a sleeper, As a mighty one crying aloud from wine.
field: 19078066
19
78
66
And He smiteth His adversaries backward, A reproach age-during He hath put on them,
field: 19078067
19
78
67
And He kicketh against the tent of Joseph, And on the tribe of Ephraim hath not fixed.
field: 19078068
19
78
68
And He chooseth the tribe of Judah, With mount Zion that He loved,
field: 19078069
19
78
69
And buildeth His sanctuary as a high place, Like the earth, He founded it to the age.
field: 19078070
19
78
70
And He fixeth on David His servant, And taketh him from the folds of a flock,
field: 19078071
19
78
71
From behind suckling ones He hath brought him in, To rule over Jacob His people, And over Israel His inheritance.
field: 19078072
19
78
72
And he ruleth them according to the integrity of his heart, And by the skilfulness of his hands leadeth them!

A Psalm of Asaph. O God, nations have come into Thy inheritance, They have defiled Thy holy temple, They made Jerusalem become heaps,

2
They gave the dead bodies of Thy servants Food for the fowls of the heavens, The flesh of Thy saints For the wild beast of the earth.

19

3
They have shed their blood As water round about Jerusalem, And there is none burying.

We have been a reproach to our neighbours, A scorn and a derision to our surrounders.

Till when, O Jehovah? art Thou angry for ever? Thy jealousy doth burn as fire.
field: 19079006

Pour Thy fury on the nations who have not known Thee, And on kingdoms that have not called in Thy name.

Covered have been hills `with' its shadow, And its boughs `are' cedars of God.

It sendeth forth its branches unto the sea, And unto the river its sucklings.
field: 19080012

Why hast Thou broken down its hedges, And all passing by the way have plucked it?

Burnt with fire -- cut down, From the rebuke of Thy face they perish.

To give rest to him from days of evil, While a pit is digged for the wicked.

They decree against the soul of the righteous, And innocent blood declare wicked.
field: 19094022

I sing to Jehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist.

Sweet is my meditation on Him, I -- I do rejoice in Jehovah.

Consumed are sinners from the earth, And the wicked are no more. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah!

Give ye thanks to Jehovah -- call ye in His name, Make known among the peoples His acts.

Sing ye to Him -- sing praise to Him, Meditate ye on all His wonders.

Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, The heart of those seeking Jehovah rejoiceth.

Remember His wonders that He did, His signs and the judgments of His mouth.

19

O seed of Abraham, His servant, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones.
field: 19105007
19
105
7
He `is' Jehovah our God, In all the earth `are' His judgments.
field: 19105008
19
105
8
He hath remembered to the age His covenant, The word He commanded to a thousand generations,
field: 19105009
19
105
9
That He hath made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,
field: 19105010
19
105
10
And doth establish it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel -- a covenant age-during,
field: 19105011
19
105
11
Saying, `To thee I give the land of Canaan, The portion of your inheritance,'
field: 19105012
19
105
12
In their being few in number, But a few, and sojourners in it.
field: 19105013
19
105
13
And they go up and down, from nation unto nation, From a kingdom unto another people.
field: 19105014
19
105
14
He hath not suffered any to oppress them And He reproveth for their sakes kings.
field: 19105015
19
105
15
`Strike not against Mine anointed, And to My prophets do not evil.'
field: 19105016
19
105
16
And He calleth a famine on the land, The whole staff of bread He hath broken.
field: 19105017
19
105
17
He hath sent before them a man, For a servant hath Joseph been sold.
field: 19105018
19
105
18
They have afflicted with fetters his feet, Iron hath entered his soul,
field: 19105019
19
105
19
Till the time of the coming of His word The saying of Jehovah hath tried him.
field: 19105020
19
105
20
The king hath sent, and looseth him, The ruler of the peoples, and draweth him out.
field: 19105021
19
105
21
He hath made him lord of his house, And ruler over all his possessions.
field: 19105022
19
105
22
To bind his chiefs at his pleasure, And his elders he maketh wise.
field: 19105023
19
105
23
And Israel cometh in to Egypt, And Jacob hath sojourned in the land of Ham.
field: 19105024
19
105
24
And He maketh His people very fruitful, And maketh it mightier than its adversaries.
field: 19105025
19
105
25
He turned their heart to hate His people, To conspire against His servants.
field: 19105026
19
105
26
He hath sent Moses His servant, Aaron whom He had fixed on.
field: 19105027
19
105
27
They have set among them the matters of His signs, And wonders in the land of Ham.
field: 19105028
19
105
28
He hath sent darkness, and it is dark, And they have not provoked His word.
field: 19105029
19
105
29
He hath turned their waters to blood, And putteth to death their fish.
field: 19105030
19
105
30
Teemed hath their land `with' frogs, In the inner chambers of their kings.
field: 19105031
19
105
31
He hath said, and the beetle cometh, Lice into all their border.
field: 19105032
19
105
32
He hath made their showers hail, A flaming fire `is' in their land.
field: 19105033
19
105
33
And He smiteth their vine and their fig, And shivereth the trees of their border.
field: 19105034
19
105
34
He hath said, and the locust cometh, And the cankerworm -- innumerable,
field: 19105035
19
105
35
And it consumeth every herb in their land, And it consumeth the fruit of their ground.
field: 19105036
19
105
36
And He smiteth every first-born in their land, The first-fruit of all their strength,
field: 19105037
19
105
37
And bringeth them out with silver and gold, And there is not in its tribes a feeble one.
field: 19105038
19
105
38
Rejoiced hath Egypt in their going forth, For their fear had fallen upon them.
field: 19105039
19
105
39
He hath spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to enlighten the night.
field: 19105040
19
105
40
They have asked, and He bringeth quails, And `with' bread of heaven satisfieth them.
field: 19105041
19
105
41
He hath opened a rock, and waters issue, They have gone on in dry places -- a river.
field: 19105042
19
105
42
For He hath remembered His holy word, With Abraham His servant,
field: 19105043
19
105
43
And He bringeth forth His people with joy, With singing His chosen ones.
field: 19105044
19
105
44
And He giveth to them the lands of nations, And the labour of peoples they possess,
field: 19105045
19
105
45
That they may observe His statutes, And His laws may keep. Praise ye Jehovah!
field: 19106001

Praise ye Jah, give thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age, `is' His kindness.

Who doth utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? Soundeth all His praise?

O the happiness of those keeping judgment, Doing righteousness at all times.
field: 19106004
19
106
4
Remember me, O Jehovah, With the favour of Thy people, Look after me in Thy salvation.
field: 19106005
19
106
5
To look on the good of Thy chosen ones, To rejoice in the joy of Thy nation, To boast myself with Thine inheritance.
field: 19106006
19
106
6
We have sinned with our fathers, We have done perversely, we have done wickedly.
field: 19106007
19
106
7
Our fathers in Egypt, Have not considered wisely Thy wonders, They have not remembered The abundance of Thy kind acts, And provoke by the sea, at the sea of Suph.
field: 19106008
19
106
8
And He saveth them for His name's sake, To make known His might,
field: 19106009
19
106
9
And rebuketh the sea of Suph, and it is dried up, And causeth them to go Through depths as a wilderness.
field: 19106010
19
106
10
And He saveth them from the hand Of him who is hating, And redeemeth them from the hand of the enemy.
field: 19106011
19
106
11
And waters cover their adversaries, One of them hath not been left.
field: 19106012
19
106
12
And they believe in His words, they sing His praise,
field: 19106013
19
106
13
They have hasted -- forgotten His works, They have not waited for His counsel.
field: 19106014
19
106
14
And they lust greatly in a wilderness, And try God in a desert.
field: 19106015
19
106
15
And He giveth to them their request, And sendeth leanness into their soul.
field: 19106016
19
106
16
And they are envious of Moses in the camp, Of Aaron, Jehovah's holy one.
field: 19106017
19
106
17
Earth openeth, and swalloweth up Dathan, And covereth over the company of Abiram.
field: 19106018
19
106
18
And fire burneth among their company, A flame setteth on fire the wicked.
field: 19106019
19
106
19
They make a calf in Horeb, And bow themselves to a molten image,
field: 19106020
19
106
20
And change their Honour Into the form of an ox eating herbs.
field: 19106021
19
106
21
They have forgotten God their saviour, The doer of great things in Egypt,
field: 19106022
19
106
22
Of wonderful things in the land of Ham, Of fearful things by the sea of Suph.
field: 19106023
19
106
23
And He saith to destroy them, Unless Moses, His chosen one, Had stood in the breach before Him, To turn back His wrath from destroying.
field: 19106024
19
106
24
And they kick against the desirable land, They have not given credence to His word.
field: 19106025
19
106
25
And they murmur in their tents, They have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah.
field: 19106026
19
106
26
And He lifteth up His hand to them, To cause them to fall in a wilderness,
field: 19106027
19
106
27
And to cause their seed to fall among nations, And to scatter them through lands.
field: 19106028
19
106
28
And they are coupled to Baal-Peor, And eat the sacrifices of the dead,
field: 19106029
19
106
29
And they provoke to anger by their actions, And a plague breaketh forth upon them,
field: 19106030
19
106
30
And Phinehas standeth, and executeth judgment, And the plague is restrained,
field: 19106031
19
106
31
And it is reckoned to him to righteousness, To all generations -- unto the age.
field: 19106032
19
106
32
And they cause wrath by the waters of Meribah, And it is evil to Moses for their sakes,
field: 19106033
19
106
33
For they have provoked his spirit, And he speaketh wrongfully with his lips.
field: 19106034
19
106
34
They have not destroyed the peoples, As Jehovah had said to them,
field: 19106035
19
106
35
And mix themselves among nations, and learn their works,
field: 19106036
19
106
36
And serve their idols, And they are to them for a snare.
field: 19106037
19
106
37
And they sacrifice their sons And their daughters to destroyers,
field: 19106038
19
106
38
And they shed innocent blood -- Blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom they have sacrificed to idols of Canaan, And the land is profaned with blood.
field: 19106039
19
106
39
And they are defiled with their works, And commit whoredom in their habitual doings.
field: 19106040
19
106
40
And the anger of Jehovah Is kindled against His people, And He doth abominate His inheritance.
field: 19106041
19
106
41
And giveth them into the hand of nations, And those hating them rule over them,
field: 19106042
19
106
42
And their enemies oppress them, And they are humbled under their hand.
field: 19106043
19
106
43
Many times He doth deliver them, And they rebel in their counsel, And they are brought low in their iniquity.
field: 19106044
19
106
44
And He looketh on their distress When He heareth their cry,
field: 19106045
19
106
45
And remembereth for them His covenant, And is comforted, According to the abundance of His kindness.
field: 19106046
19
106
46
And He appointeth them for mercies Before all their captors.
field: 19106047
19
106

Save us, O Jehovah our God, and gather us from the nations, To give thanks to Thy holy name, To glory in Thy praise.

Let the redeemed of Jehovah say, Whom He redeemed from the hand of an adversary.
field: 19107003

3
And from the lands hath gathered them, From east and from west, From north, and from the sea.
field: 19107004
19
107
4
They wandered in a wilderness, in a desert by the way, A city of habitation they have not found.
field: 19107005
19
107
5
Hungry -- yea -- thirsty, Their soul in them becometh feeble,
field: 19107006
19
107
6
And they cry unto Jehovah in their adversity, From their distress He delivereth them,
field: 19107007
19
107
7
And causeth them to tread in a right way, To go unto a city of habitation.
field: 19107008
19
107
8
They confess to Jehovah His kindness, And His wonders to the sons of men.
field: 19107009
19
107
9
For He hath satisfied a longing soul, And a hungry soul hath filled `with' goodness.
field: 19107010
19
107
10
Inhabitants of dark places and death-shade, Prisoners of affliction and of iron,
field: 19107011
19
107
11
Because they changed the saying of God, And the counsel of the Most High despised.
field: 19107012
19
107
12
And He humbleth with labour their heart, They have been feeble, and there is no helper.
field: 19107013
19
107
13
And they cry unto Jehovah in their adversity, From their distresses He saveth them.
field: 19107014
19
107
14
He bringeth them out from the dark place, And death-shade, And their bands He draweth away.
field: 19107015
19
107
15
They confess to Jehovah His kindness, And His wonders to the sons of men.
field: 19107016
19
107
16
For He hath broken doors of brass, And bars of iron He hath cut.
field: 19107017
19
107
17
Fools, by means of their transgression, And by their iniquities, afflict themselves.
field: 19107018
19
107
18
All food doth their soul abominate, And they come nigh unto the gates of death,
field: 19107019
19
107
19
And cry unto Jehovah in their adversity, From their distresses He saveth them,
field: 19107020
19
107
20
He sendeth His word and healeth them, And delivereth from their destructions.
field: 19107021
19
107
21
They confess to Jehovah His kindness, And His wonders to the sons of men,
field: 19107022
19
107
22
And they sacrifice sacrifices of thanksgiving, And recount His works with singing.
field: 19107023
19
107
23
Those going down `to' the sea in ships, Doing business in many waters,
field: 19107024
19
107
24
They have seen the works of Jehovah, And His wonders in the deep.
field: 19107025
19
107
25
And He saith, and appointeth a tempest, And it lifteth up its billows,
field: 19107026
19
107
26
They go up `to' the heavens, they go down `to' the depths, Their soul in evil is melted.
field: 19107027
19
107
27
They reel to and fro, and move as a drunkard, And all their wisdom is swallowed up.
field: 19107028
19
107
28
And they cry to Jehovah in their adversity, And from their distresses He bringeth them out.
field: 19107029
19
107
29
He establisheth a whirlwind to a calm, And hushed are their billows.
field: 19107030
19
107
30
And they rejoice because they are quiet, And He leadeth them to the haven of their desire.
field: 19107031
19
107
31
They confess to Jehovah His kindness, And His wonders to the sons of men,
field: 19107032
19
107
32
And they exalt Him in the assembly of the people, And in the seat of the elders praise Him.
field: 19107033
19
107
33
He maketh rivers become a wilderness, And fountains of waters become dry land.
field: 19107034
19
107
34
A fruitful land becometh a barren place, For the wickedness of its inhabitants.
field: 19107035
19
107
35
He maketh a wilderness become a pool of water, And a dry land become fountains of waters.
field: 19107036
19
107
36
And He causeth the hungry to dwell there, And they prepare a city of habitation.
field: 19107037
19
107
37
And they sow fields, and plant vineyards, And they make fruits of increase.
field: 19107038
19
107
38
And He blesseth them, and they multiply exceedingly, And their cattle He doth not diminish.
field: 19107039
19
107
39
And they are diminished, and bow down, By restraint, evil, and sorrow.
field: 19107040
19
107
40
He is pouring contempt upon nobles, And causeth them to wander in vacancy -- no way.
field: 19107041
19
107
41
And setteth on high the needy from affliction, And placeth families as a flock.
field: 19107042
19
107
42
The upright do see and rejoice, And all perversity hath shut her mouth.
field: 19107043

I thank Thee among peoples, O Jehovah, And I praise Thee among the nations.
field: 19108004

For great above the heavens `is' Thy kindness, And unto the clouds Thy truth.
field: 19108005

Be Thou exalted above the heavens, O God, And above all the earth Thy honour.
field: 19108006

God hath spoken in His holiness: I exult, I apportion Shechem, And the valley of Succoth I measure,

Mine `is' Gilead, mine `is' Manasseh, And Ephraim `is' the strength of my head, Judah `is' my lawgiver,

Moab `is' a pot for my washing, Upon Edom I cast my shoe, Over Philistia I shout habitually.

19
108

Who doth bring me in to the fenced city? Who hath led me unto Edom?
field: 19108011
19
108
11
Hast not Thou, O God, cast us off? And Thou goest not out, O God, with our hosts!
field: 19108012
19
108
12
Give to us help from adversity, And vain is the salvation of man.

In God we do mightily, And He doth tread down our adversaries!

To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. O God of my praise, be not silent,
field: 19109002
19
109

For the mouth of wickedness, and the mouth of deceit, Against me they have opened, They have spoken with me -- A tongue of falsehood, and words of hatred!
field: 19109003
19
109
3
They have compassed me about, And they fight me without cause.
field: 19109004
19
109
4
For my love they oppose me, and I -- prayer!
field: 19109005
19
109

And they set against me evil for good, And hatred for my love.

Appoint Thou over him the wicked, And an adversary standeth at his right hand.
field: 19109007
19
109
7
In his being judged, he goeth forth wicked, And his prayer is for sin.
field: 19109008
19
109
8
His days are few, his oversight another taketh,
field: 19109009
19
109
9
His sons are fatherless, and his wife a widow.
field: 19109010
19
109
10
And wander continually do his sons, Yea, they have begged, And have sought out of their dry places.
field: 19109011
19
109
11
An exactor layeth a snare for all that he hath, And strangers spoil his labour.
field: 19109012
19
109
12
He hath none to extend kindness, Nor is there one showing favour to his orphans.
field: 19109013
19
109
13
His posterity is for cutting off, In another generation is their name blotted out.

They are before Jehovah continually, And He cutteth off from earth their memorial.
field: 19109016
19
109
16
Because that he hath not remembered to do kindness, And pursueth the poor man and needy, And the smitten of heart -- to slay,
field: 19109017
19
109
17
And he loveth reviling, and it meeteth him, And he hath not delighted in blessing, And it is far from him.
field: 19109018
19
109
18
And he putteth on reviling as his robe, And it cometh in as water into his midst, And as oil into his bones.
field: 19109019
19
109
19
It is to him as apparel -- he covereth himself, And for a continual girdle he girdeth it on.

This `is' the wage of mine accusers from Jehovah, And of those speaking evil against my soul.

And Thou, O Jehovah Lord, Deal with me for Thy name's sake, Because Thy kindness `is' good, deliver me.

As a shadow when it is stretched out I have gone, I have been driven away as a locust.

My knees have been feeble from fasting, And my flesh hath failed of fatness.
field: 19109025

109

And I -- I have been a reproach to them, They see me, they shake their head.
field: 19109026
19

Help me, O Jehovah my God, Save me, according to Thy kindness.

And they know that this `is' Thy hand, Thou, O Jehovah, Thou hast done it.
field: 19109028
19
109
28
They revile, and Thou dost bless, They have risen, and are ashamed, And Thy servant doth rejoice.
field: 19109029

Mine accusers put on blushing, and are covered, As an upper robe `is' their shame.

Wisdom in an out-place crieth aloud, In broad places she giveth forth her voice,
field: 20001021
20
1
21
At the head of the multitudes she calleth, In the openings of the gates, In the city her sayings she saith:
field: 20001022
20
1
22
`Till when, ye simple, do ye love simplicity? And have scorners their scorning desired? And do fools hate knowledge?
field: 20001023
20
1
23
Turn back at my reproof, lo, I pour forth to you my spirit, I make known my words with you.
field: 20001024
20
1
24
Because I have called, and ye refuse, I stretched out my hand, and none is attending,
field: 20001025
20
1
25
And ye slight all my counsel, And my reproof ye have not desired.
field: 20001026
20
1
26
I also in your calamity do laugh, I deride when your fear cometh,
field: 20001027
20
1
27
When your fear cometh as destruction, And your calamity as a hurricane doth come, When on you come adversity and distress.
field: 20001028
20
1
28
Then they call me, and I do not answer, They seek me earnestly, and find me not.
field: 20001029
20
1
29
Because that they have hated knowledge, And the fear of Jehovah have not chosen.
field: 20001030
20
1
30
They have not consented to my counsel, They have despised all my reproof,
field: 20001031
20
1
31
And they eat of the fruit of their way, And from their own counsels they are filled.
field: 20001032
20
1
32
For the turning of the simple slayeth them, And the security of the foolish destroyeth them.
field: 20001033
20
1
33
And whoso is hearkening to me dwelleth confidently, And `is' quiet from fear of evil!'
field: 20002001
20
2
1
My son, if thou dost accept my sayings, And my commands dost lay up with thee,
field: 20002002
20
2
2
To cause thine ear to attend to wisdom, Thou inclinest thy heart to understanding,
field: 20002003
20
2
3
For, if for intelligence thou callest, For understanding givest forth thy voice,
field: 20002004
20
2
4
If thou dost seek her as silver, And as hid treasures searchest for her,
field: 20002005
20
2
5
Then understandest thou fear of Jehovah, And knowledge of God thou findest.
field: 20002006
20
2
6
For Jehovah giveth wisdom, From His mouth knowledge and understanding.
field: 20002007
20
2
7
Even to lay up for the upright substance, A shield for those walking uprightly.
field: 20002008
20
2
8
To keep the paths of judgment, And the way of His saints He preserveth.
field: 20002009
20
2
9
Then understandest thou righteousness, And judgment, and uprightness -- every good path.
field: 20002010
20
2
10
For wisdom cometh into thy heart, And knowledge to thy soul is pleasant,
field: 20002011
20
2
11
Thoughtfulness doth watch over thee, Understanding doth keep thee,
field: 20002012
20
2
12
To deliver thee from an evil way, From any speaking froward things,
field: 20002013
20
2
13
Who are forsaking paths of uprightness, To walk in ways of darkness,
field: 20002014
20
2
14
Who are rejoicing to do evil, They delight in frowardness of the wicked,
field: 20002015
20
2
15
Whose paths `are' crooked, Yea, they are perverted in their ways.
field: 20002016
20
2
16
To deliver thee from the strange woman, From the stranger who hath made smooth her sayings,
field: 20002017
20
2
17
Who is forsaking the guide of her youth, And the covenant of her God hath forgotten.
field: 20002018
20
2
18
For her house hath inclined unto death, And unto Rephaim her paths.
field: 20002019
20
2
19
None going in unto her turn back, Nor do they reach the paths of life.
field: 20002020
20
2
20
That thou dost go in the way of the good, And the paths of the righteous dost keep.
field: 20002021
20
2
21
For the upright do inhabit the earth, And the perfect are left in it,
field: 20002022
20
2
22
And the wicked from the earth are cut off, And treacherous dealers plucked out of it!
field: 20003001
20
3
1
My son! my law forget not, And my commands let thy heart keep,
field: 20003002
20
3
2
For length of days and years, Life and peace they do add to thee.
field: 20003003
20
3
3
Let not kindness and truth forsake thee, Bind them on thy neck, Write them on the tablet of thy heart,
field: 20003004
20
3
4
And find grace and good understanding In the eyes of God and man.
field: 20003005
20
3
5
Trust unto Jehovah with all thy heart, And unto thine own understanding lean not.
field: 20003006
20
3
6
In all thy ways know thou Him, And He doth make straight thy paths.
field: 20003007
20
3
7
Be not wise in thine own eyes, Fear Jehovah, and turn aside from evil.
field: 20003008
20
3
8
Healing it is to thy navel, And moistening to thy bones.
field: 20003009
20
3
9
Honour Jehovah from thy substance, And from the beginning of all thine increase;
field: 20003010
20
3
10
And filled are thy barns `with' plenty, And `with' new wine thy presses break forth.
field: 20003011
20
3
11
Chastisement of Jehovah, my son, despise not, And be not vexed with His reproof,
field: 20003012
20
3
12
For whom Jehovah loveth He reproveth, Even as a father the son He is pleased with.
field: 20003013
20
3
13
O the happiness of a man `who' hath found wisdom, And of a man `who' bringeth forth understanding.
field: 20003014
20
3
14
For better `is' her merchandise Than the merchandise of silver, And than gold -- her increase.
field: 20003015
20
3
15
Precious she `is' above rubies, And all thy pleasures are not comparable to her.
field: 20003016
20
3
16
Length of days `is' in her right hand, In her left `are' wealth and honour.
field: 20003017
20
3
17
Her ways `are' ways of pleasantness, And all her paths `are' peace.
field: 20003018
20
3
18
A tree of life she `is' to those laying hold on her, And whoso is retaining her `is' happy.
field: 20003019
20
3
19
Jehovah by wisdom did found the earth, He prepared the heavens by understanding.
field: 20003020
20
3
20
By His knowledge depths have been rent, And clouds do drop dew.
field: 20003021
20
3
21
My son! let them not turn from thine eyes, Keep thou wisdom and thoughtfulness,
field: 20003022
20
3
22
And they are life to thy soul, and grace to thy neck.
field: 20003023
20
3
23
Then thou goest thy way confidently, And thy foot doth not stumble.
field: 20003024
20
3
24
If thou liest down, thou art not afraid, Yea, thou hast lain down, And sweet hath been thy sleep.
field: 20003025
20
3
25
Be not afraid of sudden fear, And of the desolation of the wicked when it cometh.
field: 20003026
20
3
26
For Jehovah is at thy side, And He hath kept thy foot from capture.
field: 20003027
20
3
27
Withhold not good from its owners, When thy hand `is' toward God to do `it'.
field: 20003028
20
3
28
Say not thou to thy friend, `Go, and return, and to-morrow I give,' And substance with thee.
field: 20003029
20
3
29
Devise not against thy neighbour evil, And he sitting confidently with thee.
field: 20003030
20
3
30
Strive not with a man without cause, If he have not done thee evil.
field: 20003031
20
3
31
Be not envious of a man of violence, Nor fix thou on any of his ways.
field: 20003032
20
3
32
For an abomination to Jehovah `is' the perverted, And with the upright `is' His secret counsel.
field: 20003033
20
3
33
The curse of Jehovah `is' in the house of the wicked. And the habitation of the righteous He blesseth.
field: 20003034
20
3
34
If the scorners He doth scorn, Yet to the humble He doth give grace.
field: 20003035
20
3
35
Honour do the wise inherit, And fools are bearing away shame!
field: 20004001
20
4
1
Hear, ye sons, the instruction of a father, And give attention to know understanding.
field: 20004002
20
4
2
For good learning I have given to you, My law forsake not.
field: 20004003
20
4
3
For, a son I have been to my father -- tender, And an only one before my mother.
field: 20004004
20
4
4
And he directeth me, and he saith to me: `Let thy heart retain my words, Keep my commands, and live.
field: 20004005
20
4
5
Get wisdom, get understanding, Do not forget, nor turn away From the sayings of my mouth.
field: 20004006
20
4
6
Forsake her not, and she doth preserve thee, Love her, and she doth keep thee.
field: 20004007
20
4
7
The first thing `is' wisdom -- get wisdom, And with all thy getting get understanding.
field: 20004008
20
4
8
Exalt her, and she doth lift thee up, She honoureth thee, when thou dost embrace her.
field: 20004009
20
4
9
She giveth to thy head a wreath of grace, A crown of beauty she doth give thee freely.
field: 20004010
20
4
10
Hear, my son, and receive my sayings, And years of life `are' multiplied to thee.
field: 20004011
20
4
11
In a way of wisdom I have directed thee, I have caused thee to tread in paths of uprightness.
field: 20004012
20
4
12
In thy walking thy step is not straitened, And if thou runnest, thou stumblest not.
field: 20004013
20
4
13
Lay hold on instruction, do not desist, Keep her, for she `is' thy life.
field: 20004014
20
4
14
Into the path of the wicked enter not, And be not happy in a way of evil doers.
field: 20004015
20
4
15
Avoid it, pass not over into it, Turn aside from it, and pass on.
field: 20004016
20
4
16
For they sleep not if they do not evil, And their sleep hath been taken violently away, If they cause not `some' to stumble.
field: 20004017
20
4
17
For they have eaten bread of wickedness, And wine of violence they drink.
field: 20004018
20
4
18
And the path of the righteous `is' as a shining light, Going and brightening till the day is established,
field: 20004019
20
4
19
The way of the wicked `is' as darkness, They have not known at what they stumble.
field: 20004020
20
4
20
My son, to my words give attention, To my sayings incline thine ear,
field: 20004021
20
4
21
Let them not turn aside from thine eyes, Preserve them in the midst of thy heart.
field: 20004022
20
4
22
For life they `are' to those finding them, And to all their flesh healing.
field: 20004023
20
4
23
Above every charge keep thy heart, For out of it `are' the outgoings of life.
field: 20004024
20
4
24
Turn aside from thee a froward mouth, And perverse lips put far from thee,
field: 20004025
20
4
25
Thine eyes do look straightforward, And thine eyelids look straight before thee.
field: 20004026
20
4
26
Ponder thou the path of thy feet, And all thy ways `are' established.
field: 20004027
20
4
27
Incline not `to' the right or to the left, Turn aside thy foot from evil!
field: 20005001
20
5
1
My son! to my wisdom give attention, To mine understanding incline thine ear,
field: 20005002
20
5
2
To observe thoughtfulness, And knowledge do thy lips keep.
field: 20005003
20
5
3
For the lips of a strange woman drop honey, And smoother than oil `is' her mouth,
field: 20005004
20
5
4
And her latter end `is' bitter as wormwood, Sharp as a sword `with' mouths.
field: 20005005
20
5
5
Her feet are going down to death, Sheol do her steps take hold of.
field: 20005006
20
5
6
The path of life -- lest thou ponder, Moved have her paths -- thou knowest not.
field: 20005007
20
5
7
And now, ye sons, hearken to me, And turn not from sayings of my mouth.
field: 20005008
20
5
8
Keep far from off her thy way, And come not near unto the opening of her house,
field: 20005009
20
5
9
Lest thou give to others thy honour, And thy years to the fierce,
field: 20005010
20
5
10
Lest strangers be filled `with' thy power, And thy labours in the house of a stranger,
field: 20005011
20
5
11
And thou hast howled in thy latter end, In the consumption of thy flesh and thy food,
field: 20005012
20
5
12
And hast said, `How have I hated instruction, And reproof hath my heart despised,
field: 20005013
20
5
13
And I have not hearkened to the voice of my directors, And to my teachers have not inclined mine ear.
field: 20005014
20
5
14
As a little thing I have been all evil, In the midst of an assembly and a company.
field: 20005015
20
5
15
Drink waters out of thine own cistern, Even flowing ones out of thine own well.
field: 20005016
20
5
16
Let thy fountains be scattered abroad, In broad places rivulets of waters.
field: 20005017
20
5
17
Let them be to thee for thyself, And not to strangers with thee.
field: 20005018
20
5
18
Let thy fountain be blessed, And rejoice because of the wife of thy youth,
field: 20005019
20
5
19
A hind of loves, and a roe of grace! Let her loves satisfy thee at all times, In her love magnify thyself continually.
field: 20005020
20
5
20
And why dost thou magnify thyself, My son, with a stranger? And embrace the bosom of a strange woman?
field: 20005021
20
5
21
For over-against the eyes of Jehovah are the ways of each, And all his paths He is pondering.
field: 20005022
20
5
22
His own iniquities do capture the wicked, And with the ropes of his sin he is holden.
field: 20005023
20
5
23
He dieth without instruction, And in the abundance of his folly magnifieth himself!
field: 20006001
20
6
1
My son! if thou hast been surety for thy friend, Hast stricken for a stranger thy hand,
field: 20006002
20
6
2
Hast been snared with sayings of thy mouth, Hast been captured with sayings of thy mouth,
field: 20006003
20
6
3
Do this now, my son, and be delivered, For thou hast come into the hand of thy friend. Go, trample on thyself, and strengthen thy friend,
field: 20006004
20
6
4
Give not sleep to thine eyes, And slumber to thine eyelids,
field: 20006005
20
6
5
Be delivered as a roe from the hand, And as a bird from the hand of a fowler.
field: 20006006
20
6
6
Go unto the ant, O slothful one, See her ways and be wise;
field: 20006007
20
6
7
Which hath not captain, overseer, and ruler,
field: 20006008
20
6
8
She doth prepare in summer her bread, She hath gathered in harvest her food.
field: 20006009
20
6
9
Till when, O slothful one, dost thou lie? When dost thou arise from thy sleep?
field: 20006010
20
6
10
A little sleep, a little slumber, A little clasping of the hands to rest,
field: 20006011
20
6
11
And thy poverty hath come as a traveller, And thy want as an armed man.
field: 20006012
20
6
12
A man of worthlessness, a man of iniquity, Walking `with' perverseness of mouth,
field: 20006013
20
6
13
Winking with his eyes, speaking with his feet, Directing with his fingers,
field: 20006014
20
6
14
Frowardness `is' in his heart, devising evil at all times, Contentions he sendeth forth.
field: 20006015
20
6
15
Therefore suddenly cometh his calamity, Instantly he is broken -- and no healing.
field: 20006016
20
6
16
These six hath Jehovah hated, Yea, seven `are' abominations to His soul.
field: 20006017
20
6
17
Eyes high -- tongues false -- And hands shedding innocent blood --
field: 20006018
20
6
18
A heart devising thoughts of vanity -- Feet hasting to run to evil --
field: 20006019
20
6
19
A false witness `who' doth breathe out lies -- And one sending forth contentions between brethren.
field: 20006020
20
6
20
Keep, my son, the command of thy father, And leave not the law of thy mother.
field: 20006021
20
6
21
Bind them on thy heart continually, Tie them on thy neck.
field: 20006022
20
6
22
In thy going up and down, it leadeth thee, In thy lying down, it watcheth over thee, And thou hast awaked -- it talketh `with' thee.
field: 20006023
20
6
23
For a lamp `is' the command, And the law a light, And a way of life `are' reproofs of instruction,
field: 20006024
20
6
24
To preserve thee from an evil woman, From the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.
field: 20006025
20
6
25
Desire not her beauty in thy heart, And let her not take thee with her eyelids.
field: 20006026
20
6
26
For a harlot consumeth unto a cake of bread, And an adulteress the precious soul hunteth.
field: 20006027
20
6
27
Doth a man take fire into his bosom, And are his garments not burnt?
field: 20006028
20
6
28
Doth a man walk on the hot coals, And are his feet not scorched?
field: 20006029
20
6
29
So `is' he who hath gone in unto the wife of his neighbour, None who doth touch her is innocent.
field: 20006030
20
6
30
They do not despise the thief, When he stealeth to fill his soul when he is hungry,
field: 20006031
20
6
31
And being found he repayeth sevenfold, All the substance of his house he giveth.
field: 20006032
20
6
32
He who committeth adultery `with' a woman lacketh heart, He is destroying his soul who doth it.
field: 20006033
20
6
33
A stroke and shame he doth find, And his reproach is not wiped away,
field: 20006034
20
6
34
For jealousy `is' the fury of a man, And he doth not spare in a day of vengeance.
field: 20006035
20
6
35
He accepteth not the appearance of any atonement, Yea, he doth not consent, Though thou dost multiply bribes!
field: 20007001
20
7
1
My son! keep my sayings, And my commands lay up with thee.
field: 20007002
20
7
2
Keep my commands, and live, And my law as the pupil of thine eye.
field: 20007003
20
7
3
Bind them on thy fingers, Write them on the tablet of thy heart.
field: 20007004
20
7
4
Say to wisdom, `My sister Thou `art'.' And cry to understanding, `Kinswoman!'
field: 20007005
20
7
5
To preserve thee from a strange woman, From a stranger who hath made smooth her sayings.
field: 20007006
20
7
6
For, at a window of my house, Through my casement I have looked out,
field: 20007007
20
7
7
And I do see among the simple ones, I discern among the sons, A young man lacking understanding,
field: 20007008
20
7
8
Passing on in the street, near her corner, And the way `to' her house he doth step,
field: 20007009
20
7
9
In the twilight -- in the evening of day, In the darkness of night and blackness.
field: 20007010
20
7
10
And, lo, a woman to meet him -- (A harlot's dress, and watchful of heart,
field: 20007011
20
7
11
Noisy she `is', and stubborn, In her house her feet rest not.
field: 20007012
20
7
12
Now in an out-place, now in broad places, And near every corner she lieth in wait) --
field: 20007013
20
7
13
And she laid hold on him, and kissed him, She hath hardened her face, and saith to him,
field: 20007014
20
7
14
`Sacrifices of peace-offerings `are' by me, To-day I have completed my vows.
field: 20007015
20
7
15
Therefore I have come forth to meet thee, To seek earnestly thy face, and I find thee.
field: 20007016
20
7

And now, ye sons, hearken to me, And give attention to sayings of my mouth.

20
7
25
Let not thy heart turn unto her ways, Do not wander in her paths,
field: 20007026
20
7
26
For many `are' the wounded she caused to fall, And mighty `are' all her slain ones.
field: 20007027
20

27
The ways of Sheol -- her house, Going down unto inner chambers of death!

Doth not wisdom call? And understanding give forth her voice?
field: 20008002

At the head of high places by the way, Between the paths she hath stood,
field: 20008003
20
8
3
At the side of the gates, at the mouth of the city, The entrance of the openings, she crieth aloud,
field: 20008004
20
8
4
`Unto you, O men, I call, And my voice `is' unto the sons of men.
field: 20008005

Understand, ye simple ones, prudence, And ye fools, understand the heart,

20
8

Hearken, for noble things I speak, And the opening of my lips `is' uprightness.

field: 20008008
20
8
8
In righteousness `are' all the sayings of my mouth, Nothing in them is froward and perverse.
field: 20008009
20
8
9
All of them `are' plain to the intelligent, And upright to those finding knowledge.
field: 20008010
20
8
10
Receive my instruction, and not silver, And knowledge rather than choice gold.
field: 20008011
20
8
11
For better `is' wisdom than rubies, Yea, all delights are not comparable with it.
field: 20008012
20
8
12
I, wisdom, have dwelt with prudence, And a knowledge of devices I find out.
field: 20008013
20
8
13
The fear of Jehovah `is' to hate evil; Pride, and arrogance, and an evil way, And a froward mouth, I have hated.
field: 20008014
20
8
14
Mine `is' counsel and substance, I `am' understanding, I have might.

20
8
15
By me kings reign, and princes decree righteousness,

8
16
By me do chiefs rule, and nobles, All judges of the earth.
field: 20008017
20
8
17
I love those loving me, And those seeking me earnestly do find me.
field: 20008018

18
Wealth and honour `are' with me, Lasting substance and righteousness.
field: 20008019
20
8
19
Better `is' my fruit than gold, even fine gold, And mine increase than choice silver.
field: 20008020
20
8
20
In a path of righteousness I cause to walk, In midst of paths of judgment,
field: 20008021
20
8
21
To cause my lovers to inherit substance, Yea, their treasures I fill.
field: 20008022
20
8
22
Jehovah possessed me -- the beginning of His way, Before His works since then.
field: 20008023
20
8
23
From the age I was anointed, from the first, From former states of the earth.
field: 20008024
20
8
24
In there being no depths, I was brought forth, In there being no fountains heavy `with' waters,
field: 20008025
20
8
25
Before mountains were sunk, Before heights, I was brought forth.
field: 20008026
20
8
26
While He had not made the earth, and out-places, And the top of the dusts of the world.
field: 20008027
20
8
27
In His preparing the heavens I `am' there, In His decreeing a circle on the face of the deep,
field: 20008028
20
8
28
In His strengthening clouds above, In His making strong fountains of the deep,
field: 20008029
20
8
29
In His setting for the sea its limit, And the waters transgress not His command, In His decreeing the foundations of earth,
field: 20008030
20
8
30
Then I am near Him, a workman, And I am a delight -- day by day. Rejoicing before Him at all times,
field: 20008031
20
8
31
Rejoicing in the habitable part of His earth, And my delights `are' with the sons of men.
field: 20008032

And now, ye sons, hearken to me, Yea, happy are they who keep my ways.

20
23
26
Give, my son, thy heart to me, And let thine eyes watch my ways.

I, a preacher, have been king over Israel in Jerusalem.
field: 21001013
21

13
And I have given my heart to seek and to search out by wisdom concerning all that hath been done under the heavens. It `is' a sad travail God hath given to the sons of man to be humbled by it.
field: 21001014
21

I have seen all the works that have been done under the sun, and lo, the whole `is' vanity and vexation of spirit!

I -- I spake with my heart, saying, `I, lo, I have magnified and added wisdom above every one who hath been before me at Jerusalem, and my heart hath seen abundantly wisdom and knowledge.
field: 21001017
21

17
And I give my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I have known that even this `is' vexation of spirit;

for, in abundance of wisdom `is' abundance of sadness, and he who addeth knowledge addeth pain.'

I said in my heart, `Pray, come, I try thee with mirth, and look thou on gladness;' and lo, even it `is' vanity.
field: 21002002

Of laughter I said, `Foolish!' and of mirth, `What `is' this it is doing?'
field: 21002003
21
2
3
I have sought in my heart to draw out with wine my appetite, (and my heart leading in wisdom), and to take hold on folly till that I see where `is' this -- the good to the sons of man of that which they do under the heavens, the number of the days of their lives.
field: 21002004
21

4
I made great my works, I builded for me houses, I planted for me vineyards.
field: 21002005
21
2
5
I made for me gardens and paradises, and I planted in them trees of every fruit.
field: 21002006
21
2
6
I made for me pools of water, to water from them a forest shooting forth trees.
field: 21002007
21
2
7
I got men-servants, and maid-servants, and sons of the house were to me; also, I had much substance -- herd and flock -- above all who had been before me in Jerusalem.
field: 21002008
21
2
8
I gathered for me also silver and gold, and the peculiar treasure of kings and of the provinces. I prepared for me men-singers and women-singers, and the luxuries of the sons of man -- a wife and wives.
field: 21002009
21
2
9
And I became great, and increased above every one who had been before me in Jerusalem; also, my wisdom stood with me.
field: 21002010
21
2
10
And all that mine eyes asked I kept not back from them; I withheld not my heart from any joy, for my heart rejoiced because of all my labour, and this hath been my portion, from all my labour,
field: 21002011
21
2
11
and I have looked on all my works that my hands have done, and on the labour that I have laboured to do, and lo, the whole `is' vanity and vexation of spirit, and there is no advantage under the sun!
field: 21002012
21
2
12
And I turned to see wisdom, and madness, and folly, but what `is' the man who cometh after the king? that which `is' already -- they have done it!
field: 21002013
21
2
13
And I saw that there is an advantage to wisdom above folly, like the advantage of the light above the darkness.
field: 21002014
21
2
14
The wise! -- his eyes `are' in his head, and the fool in darkness is walking, and I also knew that one event happeneth with them all;
field: 21002015
21
2
15
and I said in my heart, `As it happeneth with the fool, it happeneth also with me, and why am I then more wise?' And I spake in my heart, that also this `is' vanity:
field: 21002016
21
2
16
That there is no remembrance to the wise -- with the fool -- to the age, for that which `is' already, `in' the days that are coming is all forgotten, and how dieth the wise? with the fool!
field: 21002017
21
2
17
And I have hated life, for sad to me `is' the work that hath been done under the sun, for the whole `is' vanity and vexation of spirit.
field: 21002018
21
2
18
And I have hated all my labour that I labour at under the sun, because I leave it to a man who is after me.
field: 21002019
21
2
19
And who knoweth whether he is wise or foolish? yet he doth rule over all my labour that I have laboured at, and that I have done wisely under the sun! this also `is' vanity.
field: 21002020
21
2
20
And I turned round to cause my heart to despair concerning all the labour that I laboured at under the sun.
field: 21002021
21
2
21
For there is a man whose labour `is' in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity, and to a man who hath not laboured therein he giveth it -- his portion! Even this `is' vanity and a great evil.
field: 21002022
21
2
22
For what hath been to a man by all his labour, and by the thought of his heart that he laboured at under the sun?
field: 21002023
21
2
23
For all his days are sorrows, and his travail sadness; even at night his heart hath not lain down; this also `is' vanity.
field: 21002024
21
2
24
There is nothing good in a man who eateth, and hath drunk, and hath shewn his soul good in his labour. This also I have seen that it `is' from the hand of God.
field: 21002025
21
2
25
For who eateth and who hasteth out more than I?
field: 21002026
21
2
26
For to a man who `is' good before Him, He hath given wisdom, and knowledge, and joy; and to a sinner He hath given travail, to gather and to heap up, to give to the good before God. Even this `is' vanity and vexation of spirit.

What advantage hath the doer in that which he is labouring at?
field: 21003010
21

10
I have seen the travail that God hath given to the sons of man to be humbled by it.
field: 21003011
21
3
11
The whole He hath made beautiful in its season; also, that knowledge He hath put in their heart without which man findeth not out the work that God hath done from the beginning even unto the end.
field: 21003012
21
3
12
I have known that there is no good for them except to rejoice and to do good during their life,
field: 21003013
21
3
13
yea, even every man who eateth and hath drunk and seen good by all his labour, it `is' a gift of God.
field: 21003014
21
3
14
I have known that all that God doth is to the age, to it nothing is to be added, and from it nothing is to be withdrawn; and God hath wrought that they do fear before Him.
field: 21003015
21
3
15
What is that which hath been? already it is, and that which `is' to be hath already been, and God requireth that which is pursued.
field: 21003016
21
3
16
And again, I have seen under the sun the place of judgment -- there `is' the wicked; and the place of righteousness -- there `is' the wicked.
field: 21003017
21
3
17
I said in my heart, `The righteous and the wicked doth God judge, for a time `is' to every matter and for every work there.'
field: 21003018
21
3
18
I said in my heart concerning the matter of the sons of man that God might cleanse them, so as to see that they themselves `are' beasts.
field: 21003019
21
3
19
For an event `is to' the sons of man, and an event `is to' the beasts, even one event `is' to them; as the death of this, so `is' the death of that; and one spirit `is' to all, and the advantage of man above the beast is nothing, for the whole `is' vanity.
field: 21003020
21
3
20
The whole are going unto one place, the whole have been from the dust, and the whole are turning back unto the dust.
field: 21003021
21
3
21
Who knoweth the spirit of the sons of man that is going up on high, and the spirit of the beast that is going down below to the earth?
field: 21003022
21
3
22
And I have seen that there is nothing better than that man rejoice in his works, for it `is' his portion; for who doth bring him in to look on that which is after him?
field: 21004001
21
4
1
And I have turned, and I see all the oppressions that are done under the sun, and lo, the tear of the oppressed, and they have no comforter; and at the hand of their oppressors `is' power, and they have no comforter.
field: 21004002
21

2
And I am praising the dead who have already died above the living who are yet alive.
field: 21004003
21

3
And better than both of them `is' he who hath not yet been, in that he hath not seen the evil work that hath been done under the sun.
field: 21004004
21

4
And I have seen all the labour, and all the benefit of the work, because for it a man is the envy of his neighbour. Even this `is' vanity and vexation of spirit.

`Better `is' a handful `with' quietness, than two handfuls `with' labour and vexation of spirit.'
field: 21004007
21
4
7
And I have turned, and I see a vain thing under the sun:
field: 21004008
21
4
8
There is one, and there is not a second; even son or brother he hath not, and there is no end to all his labour! His eye also is not satisfied with riches, and `he saith not', `For whom am I labouring and bereaving my soul of good?' This also is vanity, it is a sad travail.
field: 21004009
21
4
9
The two `are' better than the one, in that they have a good reward by their labour.
field: 21004010
21
4
10
For if they fall, the one raiseth up his companion, but wo to the one who falleth and there is not a second to raise him up!
field: 21004011
21
4
11
Also, if two lie down, then they have heat, but how hath one heat?
field: 21004012
21
4
12
And if the one strengthen himself, the two stand against him; and the threefold cord is not hastily broken.
field: 21004013

13
Better is a poor and wise youth than an old and foolish king, who hath not known to be warned any more.
field: 21004014
21
4
14
For from a house of prisoners he hath come out to reign, for even in his own kingdom he hath been poor.
field: 21004015
21
4
15
I have seen all the living, who are walking under the sun, with the second youth who doth stand in his place;
field: 21004016
21
4
16
there is no end to all the people, to all who were before them; also, the latter rejoice not in him. Surely this also is vanity and vexation of spirit.
field: 21005001

Keep thy feet when thou goest unto a house of God, and draw near to hear rather than to give of fools the sacrifice, for they do not know they do evil.
field: 21005002
21
5
2
Cause not thy mouth to hasten, and let not thy heart hasten to bring out a word before God, for God is in the heavens, and thou on the earth, therefore let thy words be few.
field: 21005003
21
5
3
For the dream hath come by abundance of business, and the voice of a fool by abundance of words.
field: 21005004
21
5
4
When thou vowest a vow to God, delay not to complete it, for there is no pleasure in fools; that which thou vowest -- complete.
field: 21005005
21
5
5
Better that thou do not vow, than that thou dost vow and dost not complete.
field: 21005006
21

Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin, nor say before the messenger, that `it `is' an error,' why is God wroth because of thy voice, and hath destroyed the work of thy hands?
field: 21005007
21
5
7
For, in the abundance of dreams both vanities and words abound; but fear thou God.
field: 21005008
21

8
If oppression of the poor, and violent taking away of judgment and righteousness thou seest in a province, do not marvel at the matter, for a higher than the high is observing, and high ones `are' over them.
field: 21005009
21

And the abundance of a land is for all. A king for a field is served.
field: 21005010

Whoso is loving silver is not satisfied `with' silver, nor he who is in love with stores `with' increase. Even this `is' vanity.
field: 21005011
21

11
In the multiplying of good have its consumers been multiplied, and what benefit `is' to its possessor except the sight of his eyes?
field: 21005012
21
5
12
Sweet `is' the sleep of the labourer whether he eat little or much; and the sufficiency of the wealthy is not suffering him to sleep.
field: 21005013
21
5
13
There is a painful evil I have seen under the sun: wealth kept for its possessor, for his evil.
field: 21005014
21
5
14
And that wealth hath been lost in an evil business, and he hath begotten a son and there is nothing in his hand!
field: 21005015
21
5
15
As he came out from the belly of his mother, naked he turneth back to go as he came, and he taketh not away anything of his labour, that doth go in his hand.
field: 21005016
21
5
16
And this also `is' a painful evil, just as he came, so he goeth, and what advantage `is' to him who laboureth for wind?
field: 21005017
21
5
17
Also all his days in darkness he consumeth, and sadness, and wrath, and sickness abound.
field: 21005018
21
5
18
Lo, that which I have seen: `It is' good, because beautiful, to eat, and to drink, and to see good in all one's labour that he laboureth at under the sun, the number of the days of his life that God hath given to him, for it `is' his portion.
field: 21005019
21
5
19
Every man also to whom God hath given wealth and riches, and hath given him power to eat of it, and to accept his portion, and to rejoice in his labour, this is a gift of God.
field: 21005020
21
5
20
For he doth not much remember the days of his life, for God is answering through the joy of his heart.
field: 21006001
21
6
1
There is an evil that I have seen under the sun, and it `is' great on man:
field: 21006002
21
6
2
A man to whom God giveth wealth, and riches, and honour, and there is no lack to his soul of all that he desireth, and God giveth him not power to eat of it, but a stranger eateth it; this `is' vanity, and it `is' an evil disease.
field: 21006003
21
6
3
If a man doth beget a hundred, and live many years, and is great, because they are the days of his years, and his soul is not satisfied from the goodness, and also he hath not had a grave, I have said, `Better than he `is' the untimely birth.'
field: 21006004
21
6
4
For in vanity he came in, and in darkness he goeth, and in darkness his name is covered,
field: 21006005
21
6
5
Even the sun he hath not seen nor known, more rest hath this than that.
field: 21006006
21
6
6
And though he had lived a thousand years twice over, yet good he hath not seen; to the same place doth not every one go?
field: 21006007
21
6
7
All the labour of man `is' for his mouth, and yet the soul is not filled.
field: 21006008
21
6
8
For what advantage `is' to the wise above the fool? What to the poor who knoweth to walk before the living?
field: 21006009
21
6
9
Better `is' the sight of the eyes than the going of the soul. This also `is' vanity and vexation of spirit.
field: 21006010
21
6
10
What `is' that which hath been? already is its name called, and it is known that it `is' man, and he is not able to contend with him who is stronger than he.
field: 21006011
21
6
11
For there are many things multiplying vanity; what advantage `is' to man?
field: 21006012
21
6
12
For who knoweth what `is' good for a man in life, the number of the days of the life of his vanity, and he maketh them as a shadow? for who declareth to man what is after him under the sun?
field: 21007001
21

1
Better `is' a name than good perfume, And the day of death than the day of birth.
field: 21007002
21
7
2
Better to go unto a house of mourning, Than to go unto a house of banqueting, For that is the end of all men, And the living layeth `it' unto his heart.
field: 21007003
21
7
3
Better `is' sorrow than laughter, For by the sadness of the face the heart becometh better.
field: 21007004
21
7
4
The heart of the wise `is' in a house of mourning, And the heart of fools in a house of mirth.
field: 21007005
21
7
5
Better to hear a rebuke of a wise man, Than `for' a man to hear a song of fools,
field: 21007006
21
7
6
For as the noise of thorns under the pot, So `is' the laughter of a fool, even this `is' vanity.
field: 21007007
21
7
7
Surely oppression maketh the wise mad, And a gift destroyeth the heart.
field: 21007008
21
7
8
Better `is' the latter end of a thing than its beginning, Better `is' the patient of spirit, than the haughty of spirit.
field: 21007009
21

9
Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry, For anger in the bosom of fools resteth.
field: 21007010

Say not thou, `What was it, That the former days were better than these?' For thou hast not asked wisely of this.
field: 21007011

7
11
Wisdom `is' good with an inheritance, And an advantage `it is' to those beholding the sun.
field: 21007012
21
7
12
For wisdom `is' a defense, money `is' a defence, And the advantage of the knowledge of wisdom `is', She reviveth her possessors.
field: 21007013

See the work of God, For who is able to make straight that which He made crooked?
field: 21007014
21
7
14
In a day of prosperity be in gladness, And in a day of evil consider. Also this over-against that hath God made, To the intent that man doth not find anything after him.
field: 21007015
21
7
15
The whole I have considered in the days of my vanity. There is a righteous one perishing in his righteousness, and there is a wrong-doer prolonging `himself' in his wrong.
field: 21007016
21
7
16
Be not over-righteous, nor show thyself too wise, why art thou desolate?
field: 21007017
21
7
17
Do not much wrong, neither be thou a fool, why dost thou die within thy time?
field: 21007018
21
7
18
`It is' good that thou dost lay hold on this, and also, from that withdrawest not thy hand, for whoso is fearing God goeth out with them all.
field: 21007019
21
7
19
The wisdom giveth strength to a wise man, more than wealth the rulers who have been in a city.
field: 21007020
21
7
20
Because there is not a righteous man on earth that doth good and sinneth not.
field: 21007021
21
7
21
Also to all the words that they speak give not thy heart, that thou hear not thy servant reviling thee.
field: 21007022
21
7
22
For many times also hath thy heart known that thou thyself also hast reviled others.
field: 21007023
21
7
23
All this I have tried by wisdom; I have said, `I am wise,' and it `is' far from me.
field: 21007024
21
7
24
Far off `is' that which hath been, and deep, deep, who doth find it?
field: 21007025
21
7
25
I have turned round, also my heart, to know and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and reason, and to know the wrong of folly, and of foolishness the madness.
field: 21007026
21
7
26
And I am finding more bitter than death, the woman whose heart `is' nets and snares, her hands `are' bands; the good before God escapeth from her, but the sinner is captured by her.
field: 21007027
21

See, this I have found, said the Preacher, one to one, to find out the reason
field: 21007028
21

28
(that still my soul had sought, and I had not found), One man, a teacher, I have found, and a woman among all these I have not found.
field: 21007029
21

29
See, this alone I have found, that God made man upright, and they -- they have sought out many devices.
field: 21008001

Who `is' as the wise? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? The wisdom of man causeth his face to shine, and the hardness of his face is changed.
field: 21008002

I pray thee, the commandment of a king keep, even for the sake of the oath of God.
field: 21008003
21
8
3
Be not troubled at his presence, thou mayest go, stand not in an evil thing, for all that he pleaseth he doth.
field: 21008004
21

Where the word of a king `is' power `is', and who saith to him, `What dost thou?'
field: 21008005
21
8
5
Whoso is keeping a command knoweth no evil thing, and time and judgment the heart of the wise knoweth.
field: 21008006
21
8
6
For to every delight there is a time and a judgment, for the misfortune of man is great upon him.
field: 21008007
21
8
7
For he knoweth not that which shall be, for when it shall be who declareth to him?
field: 21008008
21
8
8
There is no man ruling over the spirit to restrain the spirit, and there is no authority over the day of death, and there is no discharge in battle, and wickedness delivereth not its possessors.
field: 21008009
21
8
9
All this I have seen so as to give my heart to every work that hath been done under the sun; a time that man hath ruled over man to his own evil.
field: 21008010
21
8
10
And so I have seen the wicked buried, and they went in, even from the Holy Place they go, and they are forgotten in the city whether they had so done. This also `is' vanity.
field: 21008011
21
8
11
Because sentence hath not been done `on' an evil work speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of man is full within them to do evil.
field: 21008012
21
8
12
Though a sinner is doing evil a hundred `times', and prolonging `himself' for it, surely also I know that there is good to those fearing God, who fear before Him.
field: 21008013
21
8
13
And good is not to the wicked, and he doth not prolong days as a shadow, because he is not fearing before God.
field: 21008014
21
8
14
There is a vanity that hath been done upon the earth, that there are righteous ones unto whom it is coming according to the work of the wicked, and there are wicked ones unto whom it is coming according to the work of the righteous. I have said that this also `is' vanity.
field: 21008015
21
8
15
And I have praised mirth because there is no good to man under the sun except to eat and to drink, and to rejoice, and it remaineth with him of his labour the days of his life that God hath given to him under the sun.
field: 21008016
21
8
16
When I gave my heart to know wisdom and to see the business that hath been done on the earth, (for there is also a spectator in whose eyes sleep is not by day and by night),
field: 21008017
21
8
17
then I considered all the work of God, that man is not able to find out the work that hath been done under the sun, because though man labour to seek, yet he doth not find; and even though the wise man speak of knowing he is not able to find.
field: 21009001
21
9
1
But all this I have laid unto my heart, so as to clear up the whole of this, that the righteous and the wise, and their works, `are' in the hand of God, neither love nor hatred doth man know, the whole `is' before them.
field: 21009002
21
9
2
The whole `is' as to the whole; one event is to the righteous and to the wicked, to the good, and to the clean, and to the unclean, and to him who is sacrificing, and to him who is not sacrificing; as `is' the good, so `is' the sinner, he who is swearing as he who is fearing an oath.
field: 21009003
21
9
3
This `is' an evil among all that hath been done under the sun, that one event `is' to all, and also the heart of the sons of man is full of evil, and madness `is' in their heart during their life, and after it -- unto the dead.
field: 21009004
21
9
4
But `to' him who is joined unto all the living there is confidence, for to a living dog it `is' better than to the dead lion.
field: 21009005
21
9
5
For the living know that they die, and the dead know not anything, and there is no more to them a reward, for their remembrance hath been forgotten.
field: 21009006
21
9
6
Their love also, their hatred also, their envy also, hath already perished, and they have no more a portion to the age in all that hath been done under the sun.
field: 21009007
21
9
7
Go, eat with joy thy bread, and drink with a glad heart thy wine, for already hath God been pleased with thy works.
field: 21009008
21
9
8
At all times let thy garments be white, and let not perfume be lacking on thy head.
field: 21009009
21
9
9
See life with the wife whom thou hast loved, all the days of the life of thy vanity, that He hath given to thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity, for it `is' thy portion in life, even of thy labour that thou art labouring at under the sun.
field: 21009010
21
9
10
All that thy hand findeth to do, with thy power do, for there is no work, and device, and knowledge, and wisdom in Sheol whither thou art going.
field: 21009011
21

11
I have turned so as to see under the sun, that not to the swift `is' the race, nor to the mighty the battle, nor even to the wise bread, nor even to the intelligent wealth, nor even to the skilful grace, for time and chance happen with them all.
field: 21009012
21
9
12
For even man knoweth not his time; as fish that are taken hold of by an evil net, and as birds that are taken hold of by a snare, like these `are' the sons of man snared at an evil time, when it falleth upon them suddenly.
field: 21009013
21
9
13
This also I have seen: wisdom under the sun, and it is great to me.
field: 21009014
21

14
A little city, and few men in it, and a great king hath come unto it, and hath surrounded it, and hath built against it great bulwarks;
field: 21009015
21
9
15
and there hath been found in it a poor wise man, and he hath delivered the city by his wisdom, and men have not remembered that poor man!
field: 21009016
21
9
16
And I said, `Better `is' wisdom than might, and the wisdom of the poor is despised, and his words are not heard.' --
field: 21009017
21
9
17
The words of the wise in quiet are heard, More than the cry of a ruler over fools.
field: 21009018

18
Better `is' wisdom than weapons of conflict, And one sinner destroyeth much good!
field: 21010001

Dead flies cause a perfumer's perfume To send forth a stink; The precious by reason of wisdom -- By reason of honour -- a little folly!
field: 21010002
21
10
2
The heart of the wise `is' at his right hand, And the heart of a fool at his left.
field: 21010003
21
10
3
And also, when he that is a fool Is walking in the way, his heart is lacking, And he hath said to every one, `He `is' a fool.'
field: 21010004
21

4
If the spirit of the ruler go up against thee, Thy place leave not, For yielding quieteth great sinners.
field: 21010005
21
10
5
There is an evil I have seen under the sun, As an error that goeth out from the ruler,
field: 21010006
21
10
6
He hath set the fool in many high places, And the rich in a low place do sit.
field: 21010007

I have seen servants on horses, And princes walking as servants on the earth.

Whoso is removing stones is grieved by them, Whoso is cleaving trees endangered by them.
field: 21010010

If the iron hath been blunt, And he the face hath not sharpened, Then doth he increase strength, And wisdom `is' advantageous to make right.
field: 21010011

If the serpent biteth without enchantment, Then there is no advantage to a master of the tongue.
field: 21010012

Words of the mouth of the wise `are' gracious, And the lips of a fool swallow him up.
field: 21010013

13
The beginning of the words of his mouth `is' folly, And the latter end of his mouth `Is' mischievous madness.
field: 21010014

And the fool multiplieth words: `Man knoweth not that which is, And that which is after him, who doth declare to him?'

Remember also thy Creators in days of thy youth, While that the evil days come not, Nor the years have arrived, that thou sayest, `I have no pleasure in them.'

In the day that keepers of the house tremble, And men of strength have bowed themselves, And grinders have ceased, because they have become few. And those looking out at the windows have become dim,
field: 21012004
21

And doors have been shut in the street. When the noise of the grinding is low, And `one' riseth at the voice of the bird, And all daughters of song are bowed down.

Also of that which is high they are afraid, And of the low places in the way, And the almond-tree is despised, And the grasshopper is become a burden, And want is increased, For man is going unto his home age-during, And the mourners have gone round through the street.

The preacher sought to find out pleasing words, and, written `by' the upright, words of truth.

Words of the wise `are' as goads, and as fences planted `by' the masters of collections, they have been given by one shepherd.

The end of the whole matter let us hear: -- `Fear God, and keep His commands, for this `is' the whole of man.

`Why to Me the abundance of your sacrifices? saith Jehovah, I have been satiated `with' burnt-offerings of rams, And fat of fatlings; And blood of bullocks, and lambs, And he-goats I have not desired.

And he fenceth it, and casteth out its stones, And planteth it `with' a choice vine, And buildeth a tower in its midst, And also a wine press hath hewn out in it, And he waiteth for the yielding of grapes, And it yieldeth bad ones!

And now, O inhabitant of Jerusalem, and man of Judah, Judge, I pray you, between me and my vineyard.

What -- to do still to my vineyard, That I have not done in it! Wherefore, I waited to the yielding of grapes, And it yieldeth bad ones!

And now, pray, let me cause you to know, That which I am doing to my vineyard, To turn aside its hedge, And it hath been for consumption, To break down its wall, And it hath been for a treading-place.

Jehovah bringeth on thee, and on thy people, And on the house of thy father, Days that have not come, Even from the day of the turning aside of Ephraim from Judah, By the king of Asshur.

And it hath come to pass, in that day, Jehovah doth hiss for a fly that `is' in the extremity of the brooks of Egypt, And for a bee that `is' in the land of Asshur.
field: 23007019
23

And they have come, and rested all of them in the desolate valleys, And in holes of the rocks, and on all the thorns, And on all the commendable things.
field: 23007020

20
In that day doth the Lord shave, By a razor that is hired beyond the river, By the king of Asshur, The head, and the hair of the feet, Yea, also the beard it consumeth.
field: 23007021

And it hath come to pass, in that day, A man keepeth alive a heifer of the herd, And two of the flock,

23

22
And it hath come to pass, From the abundance of the yielding of milk he eateth butter, For butter and honey doth every one eat Who is left in the heart of the land.
field: 23007023
23

23
And it hath come to pass, in that day, Every place where there are a thousand vines, At a thousand silverlings, Is for briers and for thorns.
field: 23007024
23

24
With arrows and with bow he cometh thither, Because all the land is brier and thorn.
field: 23007025

25
And all the hills that with a mattock are kept in order, Thither cometh not the fear of brier and thorn, And it hath been for the sending forth of ox, And for the treading of sheep!'

And Jehovah saith unto me, `Take to thee a great tablet, and write upon it with a graving tool of man, To haste spoil, enjoy prey.'
field: 23008002
23

2
And I cause faithful witnesses to testify to me, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah son of Jeberechiah.
field: 23008003
23

3
And I draw near unto the prophetess, and she conceiveth, and beareth a son; and Jehovah saith unto me, `Call his name Maher-shalal-hash-baz,
field: 23008004
23

4
for before the youth doth know to cry, My father, and My mother, one taketh away the wealth of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria, before the king of Asshur.'
field: 23008005
23
8
5
And Jehovah addeth to speak unto me again, saying:
field: 23008006
23
8
6
`Because that this people hath refused The waters of Shiloah that go softly, And is rejoicing with Rezin and the son of Remaliah,
field: 23008007
23
8
7
Therefore, lo, the Lord is bringing up on them, The waters of the river, the mighty and the great, (The king of Asshur, and all his glory,) And it hath gone up over all its streams, And hath gone on over all its banks.
field: 23008008
23

And it hath passed on into Judah, It hath overflown and passed over, Unto the neck it cometh, And the stretching out of its wings Hath been the fulness of the breadth of thy land, O Emmanu-El!

Be friends, O nations, and be broken, And give ear, all ye far off ones of earth, Gird yourselves, and be broken, Gird yourselves, and be broken.

10
Take counsel, and it is broken, Speak a word, and it doth not stand, Because of Emmanu-El!'
field: 23008011
23

For thus hath Jehovah spoken unto me with strength of hand, and instructeth me against walking in the way of this people, saying,

`Ye do not say, A confederacy, To all to whom this people saith, A confederacy, And its fear ye do not fear, Nor declare fearful.

Jehovah of Hosts -- Him ye do sanctify, And He `is' your Fear, and He your Dread,

14
And He hath been for a sanctuary, And for a stone of stumbling, and for a rock of falling, To the two houses of Israel, For a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
field: 23008015
23
8
15
And many among them have stumbled and fallen, And been broken, and snared, and captured.

16
Bind up the testimony, Seal the law among My disciples.
field: 23008017

And I have waited for Jehovah, Who is hiding His face from the house of Jacob, And I have looked for Him.
field: 23008018
23

Lo, I, and the children whom Jehovah hath given to me, `Are' for signs and for wonders in Israel, From Jehovah of Hosts, who is dwelling in Mount Zion.

And when they say unto you, `Seek unto those having familiar spirits, And unto wizards, who chatter and mutter, Doth not a people seek unto its God? -- For the living unto the dead!

field: 23008022
23

22
And unto the land it looketh attentively, And lo, adversity and darkness! -- Dimness, distress, and thick darkness is driven away, But not the dimness for which she is in distress!

As the former time made light The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, So the latter hath honoured the way of the sea, Beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations.

The people who are walking in darkness Have seen a great light, Dwellers in a land of death-shade, Light hath shone upon them.
field: 23009003
23

Thou hast multiplied the nation, Thou hast made great its joy, They have joyed before Thee as the joy in harvest, As `men' rejoice in their apportioning spoil.
field: 23009004

Because the yoke of its burden, And the staff of its shoulder, the rod of its exactor, Thou hast broken as `in' the day of Midian.

5
For every battle of a warrior `is' with rushing, and raiment rolled in blood, And it hath been for burning -- fuel of fire.

For a Child hath been born to us, A Son hath been given to us, And the princely power is on his shoulder, And He doth call his name Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Father of Eternity, Prince of Peace.

To the increase of the princely power, And of peace, there is no end, On the throne of David, and on his kingdom, To establish it, and to support it, In judgment and in righteousness, Henceforth, even unto the age, The zeal of Jehovah of Hosts doth this.

A word hath the Lord sent into Jacob, And it hath fallen in Israel.

And the people have known -- all of it, Ephraim, and the inhabitant of Samaria, In pride and in greatness of heart, saying,

10
`Bricks have fallen, and hewn work we build, Sycamores have been cut down, and cedars we renew.'

And Jehovah setteth the adversaries of Rezin on high above him, And his enemies he joineth together,

Aram from before, and Philistia from behind, And they devour Israel with the whole mouth. With all this not turned back hath His anger, And still His hand is stretched out.
field: 23009013

13
And the people hath not turned back unto Him who is smiting it, And Jehovah of Hosts they have not sought.

And Jehovah cutteth off from Israel head and tail, Branch and reed -- the same day,

Elder, and accepted of face, he `is' the head, Prophet, teacher of falsehood, he `is' the tail.

And the eulogists of this people are causing to err, And its eulogised ones are consumed.

Therefore, over its young men the Lord rejoiceth not, And its orphans, and its widows He pitieth not, For every one `is' profane, and an evil doer, And every mouth is speaking folly. With all this not turned back hath His anger, And still His hand is stretched out.
field: 23009018
23

For burned as a fire hath wickedness, Brier and thorn it devoureth, And it kindleth in thickets of the forest, And they lift themselves up, an exaltation of smoke!

In the wrath of Jehovah of Hosts Hath the land been consumed, And the people is as fuel of fire; A man on his brother hath no pity,

And cutteth down on the right, and hath been hungry, And he devoureth on the left, And they have not been satisfied, Each the flesh of his own arm they devour.

Without Me it hath bowed down In the place of a bound one, And in the place of the slain they fall. With all this not turned back hath His anger, And still His hand is stretched out.

Wo `to' Asshur, a rod of Mine anger, And a staff in their hand `is' Mine indignation.

Against a profane nation I send him, And concerning a people of My wrath I charge him, To spoil spoil, and to seize prey, And to make it a treading-place as the clay of out places.

And it hath come to pass, When the Lord doth fulfil all His work In mount Zion and in Jerusalem, I see concerning the fruit of the greatness Of the heart of the king of Asshur. And concerning the glory of the height of his eyes.

For he hath said, `By the power of my hand I have wrought, And by my wisdom, for I have been intelligent, And I remove borders of the peoples, And their chief ones I have spoiled, And I put down as a mighty one the inhabitants,

Therefore doth the Lord, the Lord of Hosts, Send among his fat ones leanness, And under his honour He kindleth a burning As the burning of a fire.
field: 23010017
23
10
17
And the light of Israel hath been for a fire, And his Holy One for a flame, And it hath burned, and devoured his thorn And his brier in one day.
field: 23010018

18
And the honour of his forest, and his fruitful field, From soul even unto flesh He doth consume, And it hath been as the fainting of a standard-bearer.

And the rest of the trees of his forest `are' few, And a youth doth write them.

And it hath come to pass, in that day, The remnant of Israel, And the escaped of the house of Jacob, Do not add any more to lean on its smiter, And have leant on Jehovah, The Holy One of Israel, in truth.

A remnant returneth -- a remnant of Jacob, Unto the Mighty God.

For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, A remnant doth return of it, A consumption determined, Overflowing `with' righteousness.

For a consumption that is determined, The Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, Is making in the midst of all the land.

Therefore, thus said the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, `Be not afraid, my people, inhabiting Zion, because of Asshur, With a rod he doth smite thee, And his staff lifteth up against thee, in the way of Egypt.

For yet a very little, And the indignation hath been completed, And Mine anger by their wearing out.

And he hath judged in righteousness the poor, And decided in uprightness for the humble of earth, And hath smitten earth with the rod of his mouth, And with the breath of his lips he putteth the wicked to death.

And peoples have taken them, And have brought them in unto their place, And the house of Israel have inherited them, On the land of Jehovah, For men-servants and for maid-servants, And they have been captors of their captors, And have ruled over their exactors.

And it hath come to pass, In the day of Jehovah's giving rest to thee, From thy grief, and from thy trouble, And from the sharp bondage, That hath been served upon thee,
field: 23014004

That thou hast taken up this simile Concerning the king of Babylon, and said, How hath the exactor ceased,
field: 23014005

Ceased hath the golden one. Broken hath Jehovah the staff of the wicked, The sceptre of rulers.
field: 23014006

He who is smiting peoples in wrath, A smiting without intermission, He who is ruling in anger nations, Pursuing without restraint!

At rest -- quiet hath been all the earth, They have broken forth `into' singing.

Even firs have rejoiced over thee, Cedars of Lebanon -- `saying': Since thou hast lain down, The hewer cometh not up against us.

Sheol beneath hath been troubled at thee, To meet thy coming in, It is waking up for thee Rephaim, All chiefs ones of earth, It hath raised up from their thrones All kings of nations.
field: 23014010

All of them answer and say unto thee, Even thou hast become weak like us! Unto us thou hast become like!

Brought down to Sheol hath been thine excellency, The noise of thy psaltery, Under thee spread out hath been the worm, Yea, covering thee is the worm.
field: 23014012
23

12
How hast thou fallen from the heavens, O shining one, son of the dawn! Thou hast been cut down to earth, O weakener of nations.
field: 23014013
23
14
13
And thou saidst in thy heart: the heavens I go up, Above stars of God I raise my throne, And I sit in the mount of meeting in the sides of the north.
field: 23014014
23

14
I go up above the heights of a thick cloud, I am like to the Most High.

Only -- unto Sheol thou art brought down, Unto the sides of the pit.

Thy beholders look to thee, to thee they attend, Is this the man causing the earth to tremble, Shaking kingdoms?

He hath made the world as a wilderness, And his cities he hath broken down, Of his bound ones he opened not the house.

All kings of nations -- all of them, Have lain down in honour, each in his house,
field: 23014019

And -- thou hast been cast out of thy grave, As an abominable branch, raiment of the slain, Thrust through ones of the sword, Going down unto the sons of the pit, As a carcase trodden down.
field: 23014020
23

Thou art not united with them in burial, For thy land thou hast destroyed, Thy people thou hast slain, Not named to the age is the seed of evil doers.

Prepare ye for his sons slaughter; Because of the iniquity of their fathers, They rise not, nor have possessed the land, Nor filled the face of the world `with' cities.
field: 23014022

And I have risen up against them, (The affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts,) And have cut off, in reference to Babylon, Name and remnant, and continuator and successor, The affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 23014023
23
14
23
And have made it for a possession of a bittern, And ponds of waters, And daubed it with the mire of destruction, The affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts!
field: 23014024
23

24
Sworn hath Jehovah of Hosts, saying, `As I thought -- so hath it not been? And as I counselled -- it standeth;
field: 23014025
23
14
25
To break Asshur in My land, And on My mountains I tread him down, And turned from off them hath his yoke, Yea, his burden from off their shoulder turneth aside.
field: 23014026

This `is' the counsel that is counselled for all the earth, And this `is' the hand that is stretched out for all the nations.
field: 23014027

For Jehovah of Hosts hath purposed, And who doth make void? And His hand that is stretched out, Who doth turn it back?'

In the year of the death of king Ahaz was this burden:
field: 23014029
23
14
29
Rejoice not thou, Philistia, all of thee, That broken hath been the rod of thy smiter, For from the root of a serpent cometh out a viper, And its fruit `is' a flying saraph.
field: 23014030
23

30
And delighted have the first-born of the poor, And the needy in confidence lie down, And I have put to death with famine thy root, And thy remnant it slayeth.
field: 23014031

Howl, O gate; cry, O city, Melted art thou, Philistia, all of thee, For from the north smoke hath come, And there is none alone in his set places.

The burden of Moab. Because in a night destroyed was Ar of Moab -- It hath been cut off, Because in a night destroyed was Kir of Moab -- It hath been cut off.

He hath gone up to Bajith and Dibon, The high places -- to weep, On Nebo and on Medeba Moab howleth, On all its heads `is' baldness, every beard cut off.
field: 23015003
23
15

In its out-places they girded on sackcloth, On its pinnacles, and in its broad places, Every one howleth -- going down with weeping.
field: 23015004
23
15
4
And cry doth Heshbon and Elealeh, Unto Jahaz heard hath been their voice, Therefore the armed ones of Moab do shout, His life hath been grievous to him.
field: 23015005
23
15
5
My heart `is' toward Moab, Cry do her fugitives unto Zoar, a heifer of the third `year', For -- the ascent of Luhith -- With weeping he goeth up in it, For, in the way of Horonaim, A cry of destruction they wake up.
field: 23015006

For, the waters of Nimrim are desolations, For, withered hath been the hay, Finished hath been the tender grass, A green thing there hath not been.

Therefore the abundance he made, and their store, Unto the brook of the willows they carry.

For gone round hath the cry the border of Moab, Unto Eglaim `is' its howling, And to Beer-Elim `is' its howling.

For the waters of Dimon have been full of blood, For I set on Dimon additions, For the escaped of Moab a lion, And for the remnant of Adamah!

Send ye a lamb `to' the ruler of the land, From Selah in the wilderness, Unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.

And it hath come to pass, As a wandering bird, a nest cast out, Are daughters of Moab, `at' fords of Arnon.
field: 23016003

3
Bring ye in counsel, do judgment, Make as night thy shadow in the midst of noon, Hide outcasts, the wanderer reveal not.
field: 23016004
23
16
4
Sojourn in thee do My outcasts, O Moab, Be a secret hiding-place to them, From the face of a destroyer, For ceased hath the extortioner, Finished hath been a destroyer, Consumed the treaders down out of the land.
field: 23016005
23

And established in kindness is the throne, And `one' hath sat on it in truth, in the tent of David, Judging and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness.

We have heard of the pride of Moab -- very proud, His pride, and his arrogance, and his wrath, Not right `are' his devices.
field: 23016007

Therefore howl doth Moab for Moab, all of it doth howl, For the grape-cakes of Kir-Hareseth it meditateth, Surely they are smitten.

Because fields of Heshbon languish, The vine of Sibmah, Lords of nations did beat her choice vines, Unto Jazer they have come, They have wandered in a wilderness, Her plants have spread themselves, They have passed over a sea.
field: 23016009
23
16
9
Therefore I weep with the weeping of Jazer, The vine of Sibmah, I water thee `with' my tear, O Heshbon and Elealeh, For -- for thy summer fruits, and for thy harvest, The shouting hath fallen.
field: 23016010
23
16
10
And removed have been gladness and joy from the fruitful field, And in vineyards they sing not, nor shout, Wine in the presses treadeth not the treader, Shouting I have caused to cease.
field: 23016011
23
16
11
Therefore my bowels for Moab as a harp do sound, And mine inward parts for Kir-Haresh.
field: 23016012

And it hath come to pass, when it hath been seen, That weary hath been Moab on the high place, And he hath come unto his sanctuary to pray, And is not able.

13
This `is' the word that Jehovah hath spoken unto Moab from that time,
field: 23016014

14
And now hath Jehovah spoken, saying, `In three years, as years of an hireling, Lightly esteemed is the honour of Moab, With all the great multitude, And the remnant `is' little, small, not mighty!'

Forsaken are the cities of Aroer, For droves they are, and they have lain down, And there is none troubling.
field: 23017003

And ceased hath the fortress from Ephraim, And the kingdom from Damascus, And the remnant of Aram are as the honour of the sons of Israel, The affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts!
field: 23017004

And it hath come to pass, in that day, Wax poor doth the honour of Jacob, And the fatness of his flesh doth wax lean.
field: 23017005

And it hath come to pass, As the gathering by the reaper of the standing corn, And his arm the ears reapeth, And it hath come to pass, As the gathering of the ears in the valley of Rephaim,

And left in him have been gleanings, As the compassing of an olive, Two -- three berries on the top of a branch, Four -- five on the fruitful boughs, The affirmation of Jehovah, God of Israel!

In that day doth man look to His Maker, Yea, his eyes to the Holy One of Israel look,

And he looketh not unto the altars. The work of his own hands, And that which his own fingers made He seeth not -- the shrines and the images.

In that day are the cities of his strength As the forsaken thing of the forest, And the branch that they have left, Because of the sons of Israel, It also hath been a desolation.

Because thou hast forgotten the God of thy salvation, And the rock of thy strength hast not remembered, Therefore thou plantest plants of pleasantness, And with a strange slip sowest it,

In the day thy plant thou causest to become great, And in the morning thy seed makest to flourish, A heap `is' the harvest in a day of overflowing, And of mortal pain.

Nations as the wasting of many waters are wasted, And He hath pushed against it, And it hath fled afar off, And been pursued as chaff of hills before wind, And as a rolling thing before a hurricane.

That is sending by sea ambassadors, Even with implements of reed on the face of the waters, -- Go, ye light messengers, Unto a nation drawn out and peeled, Unto a people fearful from its beginning and onwards, A nation meeting out by line, and treading down, Whose land floods have spoiled.

For thus said Jehovah unto me, `I rest, and I look on My settled place, As a clear heat on an herb. As a thick cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.

5
For before harvest, when the flower is perfect, And the blossom is producing unripe fruit, Then hath `one' cut the sprigs with pruning hooks, And the branches he hath turned aside, cut down.

At that time brought is a present to Jehovah of Hosts, A nation drawn out and peeled. Even of a people fearful from the beginning hitherto, A nation meting out by line, and treading down, Whose land floods have spoiled, Unto the place of the name of Jehovah of Hosts -- mount Zion!'

The burden of Egypt. Lo, Jehovah is riding on a swift thick cloud, And He hath entered Egypt, And moved have been the idols of Egypt at His presence, And the heart of Egypt melteth in its midst.
field: 23019002
23

2
And I armed Egyptians against Egyptians, And they fought, each against his brother, And each against his neighbour, City against city, kingdom against kingdom.
field: 23019003
23
19
3
And emptied out hath been in its midst the spirit of Egypt. And its counsel I swallow up, And they have sought unto the idols, And unto the charmers, And unto those having familiar spirits, And unto the wizards.
field: 23019004
23

And I have delivered the Egyptians Into the hand of a hard lord, And a strong king doth rule over them, An affirmation of the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts.

And failed have waters from the sea, And a river is wasted and dried up.

And they have turned away the flowings, Weak and dried up have been brooks of the bulwark, Reed and flag have withered.
field: 23019007
23

Exposed things by the brook, by the edge of the brook, And every sown thing of the brook, hath withered, It hath been driven away, and is not.
field: 23019008

And lamented have the fishers, And mourned have all casting angle into a brook, And those spreading nets on the face of the waters have languished.

And ashamed have been makers of fine flax, And weavers of net-works.

Only, fools `are' the princes of Zoan, The counsel of the wise ones of the counsellors of Pharaoh hath become brutish. How say ye unto Pharaoh, `A son of the wise am I, a son of kings of antiquity?'

Where `are' they now, thy wise ones? Yea, let them tell to thee, I pray thee, And they know what Jehovah of Hosts hath counselled against Egypt!
field: 23019013

Foolish have been princes of Zoan, Lifted up have been princes of Noph, And they have caused Egypt to err, The chief of her tribes.
field: 23019014
23
19
14
Jehovah hath mingled in her midst A spirit of perverseness, And they have caused Egypt to err in all its work, As a drunkard erreth in his vomit.

15
And there is no work to Egypt, That head or tail, branch or reed, may do.

In that day is Egypt like women, And it hath mourned, and been afraid, Because of the waving of the hand of Jehovah of Hosts, That He is waving over it.
field: 23019017

And the land of Judah hath been to Egypt for a cause of staggering, Every one who doth mention it, for himself feareth, Because of the counsel of Jehovah of Hosts, That He is counselling against it.

In that day there are five cities in the land of Egypt, Speaking the lip of Canaan, And swearing to Jehovah of Hosts, `The city of destruction,' is said of one.

In that day there is an altar to Jehovah In the midst of the land of Egypt, And a standing pillar near its border to Jehovah,
field: 23019020
23
19
20
And it hath been for a sign and for a testimony, To Jehovah of Hosts in the land of Egypt, For they cry unto Jehovah from the face of oppressors, And He sendeth to them a saviour, Even a great one, and hath delivered them.
field: 23019021
23

And known hath been Jehovah to Egypt, And the Egyptians have known Jehovah in that day, And done sacrifice and present, And vowed a vow to Jehovah, and completed `it'.
field: 23019022

And Jehovah hath smitten Egypt, smiting and healing, And they have turned back unto Jehovah, And He hath been entreated of them, And hath healed them.

In that day is a highway out of Egypt to Asshur, And come in have the Assyrians to Egypt, And the Egyptians into Asshur, And the Egyptians have served with the Assyrians.

In that day is Israel third, After Egypt, and after Asshur, A blessing in the heart of the earth.

at that time spake Jehovah by the hand of Isaiah son of Amoz, saying, `Go, and thou hast loosed the sackcloth from off thy loins, and thy sandal thou dost draw from off thy foot,' and he doth so, going naked and barefoot.

And Jehovah saith, `As My servant Isaiah hath gone naked and barefoot three years, a sign and a wonder for Egypt and for Cush,

so doth the king of Asshur lead the captivity of Egypt, and the removal of Cush, young and old, naked and barefoot, with seat uncovered -- the nakedness of Egypt;

5
and they have been affrighted and ashamed of Cush their confidence, and of Egypt their beauty,

Wandered hath my heart, trembling hath terrified me, The twilight of my desire He hath made a fear to me,

And he hath seen a chariot -- a couple of horsemen, The rider of an ass, the rider of a camel, And he hath given attention -- He hath increased attention!

And he crieth -- a lion, `On a watch-tower my lord, I am standing continually by day, And on my ward I am stationed whole nights.

And lo, this, the chariot of a man is coming, A couple of horsemen.' And he answereth and saith: `Fallen, fallen hath Babylon, And all the graven images of her gods He hath broken to the earth.

For thus said the Lord unto me: `Within a year, as years of a hireling, Consumed hath been all the honour of Kedar.

And the remnant of the number of bow-men, The mighty of the sons of Kedar are few, For Jehovah, God of Israel, hath spoken!'

And Elam hath borne a quiver, In a chariot of men -- horsemen, And Kir hath exposed a shield.
field: 23022007
23
22
7
And it cometh to pass, The choice of thy valleys have been full of chariots, And the horsemen place themselves diligently at the gate.
field: 23022008
23
22
8
And one removeth the covering of Judah, And thou lookest in that day Unto the armour of the house of the forest,
field: 23022009
23
22
9
And the breaches of the city of David ye have seen, For they have become many, And ye gather the waters of the lower pool,
field: 23022010
23
22
10
And the houses of Jerusalem ye did number, And ye break down the houses to fence the wall.
field: 23022011
23
22
11
And a ditch ye made between the two walls, For the waters of the old pool, And ye have not looked unto its Maker, And its Framer of old ye have not seen.
field: 23022012
23
22
12
And call doth the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, In that day, to weeping and to lamentation, And to baldness and to girding on of sackcloth,
field: 23022013
23
22
13
And lo, joy and gladness, slaying of oxen, And slaughtering of sheep, Eating of flesh, and drinking of wine, Eat and drink, for to-morrow we die.
field: 23022014
23
22
14
And revealed it hath been in mine ears, `By' Jehovah of Hosts: Not pardoned is this iniquity to you, Till ye die, said the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts.
field: 23022015
23
22
15
Thus said the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts: `Go, enter in unto this steward, Unto Shebna, who `is' over the house:
field: 23022016
23
22
16
What -- to thee here? And who -- to thee here? That thou hast hewn out to thee here -- a sepulchre? Hewing on high his sepulchre, Graving in a rock a dwelling for himself.
field: 23022017
23
22
17
Lo, Jehovah is casting thee up and down, A casting up and down, O mighty one,
field: 23022018
23
22
18
And thy coverer covering, wrapping round, Wrappeth thee round, O babbler, On a land broad of sides -- there thou diest, And there the chariots of thine honour `Are' the shame of the house of thy lord.
field: 23022019
23
22
19
And I have thrust thee from thy station, And from thine office he throweth thee down.
field: 23022020
23
22
20
And it hath come to pass, in that day, That I have called to my servant, To Eliakim son of Hilkiah.
field: 23022021
23
22
21
And I have clothed him with thy coat, And with thy girdle I strengthen him, And thy garment I give into his hand, And he hath been for a father to the inhabitant of Jerusalem, And to the house of Judah.
field: 23022022
23
22
22
And I have placed the key Of the house of David on his shoulder, And he hath opened, and none is shutting, And hath shut, and none is opening.
field: 23022023
23
22
23
And I have fixed him a nail in a stedfast place, And he hath been for a throne of honour To the house of his father.
field: 23022024
23
22
24
And they have hanged on him All the honour of the house of his father, The offspring and the issue, All vessels of small quality, From vessels of basins to all vessels of flagons.
field: 23022025
23
22
25
In that day -- an affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, Moved is the nail that is fixed In a stedfast place, Yea, it hath been cut down, and hath fallen, And cut off hath been the burden that `is' on it, For Jehovah hath spoken!'
field: 23023001
23
23
1
The Burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish, For it hath been destroyed, Without house, without entrance, From the land of Chittim it was revealed to them.
field: 23023002
23
23
2
Be silent, ye inhabitants of the isle, Trader of Zidon, passing the sea, they filled thee.
field: 23023003
23
23
3
And in many waters `is' the seed of Sihor, The harvest of the brook `is' her increase, And she is a mart of nations.
field: 23023004
23
23
4
Be ashamed, O Zidon; for the sea spake, The strength of the sea, saying: `I have not been pained, nor have I brought forth, Nor have I nourished young men, `nor' brought up virgins.'
field: 23023005
23
23
5
As `at' the report of Egypt they are pained, So `at' the report of Tyre.
field: 23023006
23
23
6
Pass over to Tarshish, howl, ye inhabitants of the isle,
field: 23023007
23
23
7
Is this your exulting one? From the days of old `is' her antiquity, Carry her do her own feet afar off to sojourn.
field: 23023008
23
23
8
Who hath counselled this against Tyre, The crowning one, whose traders `are' princes, Her merchants the honoured of earth?'
field: 23023009
23
23
9
Jehovah of Hosts hath counselled it, To pollute the excellency of all beauty, To make light all the honoured of earth.
field: 23023010
23
23
10
Pass through thy land as a brook, Daughter of Tarshish, there is no more a girdle.
field: 23023011
23
23
11
His hand He hath stretched out over the sea, He hath caused kingdoms to tremble, Jehovah hath charged concerning the merchant one, To destroy her strong places.
field: 23023012
23
23
12
And He saith, `Thou dost not add any more to exult, O oppressed one, virgin daughter of Zidon, To Chittim arise, pass over, Even there -- there is no rest for thee.'
field: 23023013
23
23
13
Lo, the land of the Chaldeans -- this people was not, Asshur founded it for the Ziim, They raised its watch-towers, They lifted up her palaces, -- He hath appointed her for a ruin!
field: 23023014
23
23
14
Howl, ye ships of Tarshish, For your strength hath been destroyed.
field: 23023015
23
23
15
And it hath come to pass, in that day, That forgotten is Tyre seventy years, According to the days of one king. At the end of seventy years there is to Tyre as the song of the harlot.
field: 23023016
23
23
16
Take a harp, go round the city, O forgotten harlot, play well, Multiply song that thou mayest be remembered.
field: 23023017
23
23
17
And it hath come to pass, At the end of seventy years Jehovah inspecteth Tyre, And she hath repented of her gift, That she committed fornication With all kingdoms of the earth on the face of the ground.
field: 23023018
23
23
18
And her merchandise and her gift have been holy to Jehovah, Not treasured up nor stored, For to those sitting before Jehovah is her merchandise, To eat to satiety, and for a lasting covering!
field: 23024001
23
24
1
Lo, Jehovah is emptying the land, And is making it waste, And hath overturned `it on' its face, And hath scattered its inhabitants.
field: 23024002
23
24
2
And it hath been -- as a people so a priest, As the servant so his master, As the maid-servant so her mistress, As the buyer so the seller, As the lender so the borrower, As the usurer so he who is lifting `it' on himself.
field: 23024003
23
24
3
Utterly emptied is the land, and utterly spoiled, For Jehovah hath spoken this word:
field: 23024004
23
24
4
Mourned, faded hath the land, Languished, faded hath the world, Languished have they -- the high place of the people of the land.
field: 23024005
23
24
5
And the land hath been defiled under its inhabitants, Because they have transgressed laws, They have changed a statute, They have made void a covenant age-during.
field: 23024006
23
24
6
Therefore a curse hath consumed the land, And the inhabitants in it are become desolate, Therefore consumed have been inhabitants of the land, And few men have been left.
field: 23024007
23
24
7
Mourned hath the new wine, languished the vine, Sighed have all the joyful of heart.
field: 23024008
23
24
8
Ceased hath the joy of tabrets, Ceased hath the noise of exulting ones, Ceased hath the joy of a harp.
field: 23024009
23
24
9
With a song they drink not wine, Bitter is strong drink to those drinking it.
field: 23024010
23
24
10
It was broken down -- a city of emptiness, Shut hath been every house from entrance.
field: 23024011
23
24
11
A cry over the wine `is' in out-places, Darkened hath been all joy, Removed hath been the joy of the land.
field: 23024012
23
24
12
Left in the city `is' desolation, And `with' wasting is the gate smitten.
field: 23024013
23
24
13
When thus it is in the heart of the land, In the midst of the peoples, As the compassing of the olive, As gleanings when harvest hath been finished,
field: 23024014
23
24
14
They -- they lift up their voice, They sing of the excellency of Jehovah, They have cried aloud from the sea.
field: 23024015
23
24
15
Therefore in prosperity honour ye Jehovah, In isles of the sea, the name of Jehovah, God of Israel.
field: 23024016
23
24
16
From the skirt of the earth we heard songs, The desire of the righteous. And I say, `Leanness `is' to me, Leanness `is' to me, wo `is' to me.' Treacherous dealers dealt treacherously, Yea, treachery, treacherous dealers dealt treacherously.
field: 23024017
23
24
17
Fear, and a snare, and a gin, `Are' on thee, O inhabitant of the land.
field: 23024018
23
24
18
And it hath come to pass, He who is fleeing from the noise of the fear Doth fall into the snare, And he who is coming up from the midst of the snare, Is captured by the gin, For windows on high have been opened, And shaken are foundations of the land.
field: 23024019
23
24
19
Utterly broken down hath been the land, Utterly broken hath been the land, Utterly moved hath been the land.
field: 23024020
23
24
20
Stagger greatly doth the land as a drunkard, And it hath been moved as a lodge, And heavy on it hath been its transgression, And it hath fallen, and addeth not to rise.
field: 23024021
23
24
21
And it hath come to pass, in that day, Jehovah layeth a charge on the host of the high place in the high place, And on the kings of the land on the land.
field: 23024022
23
24
22
And they have been gathered -- A gathering of bound ones in a pit, And shut up they have been in a prison, And after a multitude of days are inspected.
field: 23024023
23
24
23
And confounded hath been the moon, And ashamed hath been the sun, For reigned hath Jehovah of Hosts In mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, And over-against His elders -- honour!
field: 23025001
23
25
1
O Jehovah, my God `art' Thou, I exalt Thee, I confess Thy name, For Thou hast done a wonderful thing, Counsels of old, stedfastness, O stedfast One.
field: 23025002
23
25
2
For Thou didst make of a city a heap, Of a fenced city a ruin, A high place of strangers from `being' a city, To the age it is not built.
field: 23025003
23
25
3
Therefore honour Thee do a strong people, A city of the terrible nations feareth Thee.
field: 23025004
23
25
4
For Thou hast been a stronghold for the poor, A stronghold for the needy in his distress, A refuge from storm, a shadow from heat, When the spirit of the terrible `is' as a storm -- a wall.
field: 23025005
23
25
5
As heat in a dry place, The noise of strangers Thou humblest, Heat with the shadow of a thick cloud, The singing of the terrible is humbled.
field: 23025006
23
25
6
And made hath Jehovah of Hosts, For all the peoples in this mount, A banquet of fat things, a banquet of preserved things, Fat things full of marrow, preserved things refined.
field: 23025007
23
25
7
And swallowed up hath He in this mountain The face of the wrapping that is wrapped over all the peoples, And of the covering that is spread over all the nations.
field: 23025008
23
25
8
He hath swallowed up death in victory, And wiped hath the Lord Jehovah, The tear from off all faces, And the reproach of His people He turneth aside from off all the earth, For Jehovah hath spoken.
field: 23025009
23
25
9
And `one' hath said in that day, `Lo, this `is' our God, We waited for Him, and He saveth us, This `is' Jehovah, we have waited for Him, We joy and rejoice in His salvation.'
field: 23025010
23
25
10
For rest doth the hand of Jehovah on this mountain, And trodden down is Moab under Him, As trodden down is straw on a dunghill.
field: 23025011
23
25
11
And he spread out his hands in its midst, As spread out doth the swimmer to swim; And He hath humbled his excellency With the machinations of his hands.
field: 23025012
23
25
12
And the fortress of the high place of thy walls He hath bowed down -- He hath made low, He hath caused `it' to come to the earth, -- unto dust.
field: 23026001
23
26
1
In that day sung is this song in the land of Judah: `We have a strong city, Salvation He doth make walls and bulwark.
field: 23026002
23

2
Open ye the gates, that enter may a righteous nation, Preserving stedfastness.

An imagination supported Thou fortifiest peace -- peace! For in Thee it is confident.

23
26
4
Trust ye in Jehovah for ever, For in Jah Jehovah `is' a rock of ages,
field: 23026005
23
26
5
For He bowed down the dwellers on high, A city set on high He maketh low, He maketh it low unto the earth, He causeth it to come unto the dust,
field: 23026006
23
26
6
Tread it down doth a foot, Feet of the poor -- steps of the weak.
field: 23026007
23
26
7
The path for the righteous `is' uprightness, O upright One, The path of the righteous Thou dost ponder.
field: 23026008
23
26
8
Also, `in' the path of Thy judgments, O Jehovah, we have waited `for' Thee, To Thy name and to Thy remembrance `Is' the desire of the soul.
field: 23026009
23
26
9
`With' my soul I desired Thee in the night, Also, `with' my spirit within me I seek Thee earnestly, For when Thy judgments `are' on the earth, The inhabitants of the world have learned righteousness.
field: 23026010
23
26
10
The wicked findeth favour, He hath not learned righteousness, In a land of straightforwardness he dealeth perversely, And seeth not the excellency of Jehovah.
field: 23026011
23
26
11
O Jehovah, high `is' Thy hand -- they see not, They see the zeal of the people, and are ashamed, Also, the fire -- Thine adversaries, consumeth them.
field: 23026012
23
26
12
O Jehovah, Thou appointest peace to us, For, all our works also Thou hast wrought for us.
field: 23026013
23
26
13
O Jehovah our God, lords have ruled us besides Thee, Only, by Thee we make mention of Thy name.
field: 23026014

Dead -- they live not, Rephaim, they rise not, Therefore Thou hast inspected and dost destroy them, Yea, thou destroyest all their memory.
field: 23026015
23
26
15
Thou hast added to the nation, O Jehovah, Thou hast added to the nation, Thou hast been honoured, Thou hast put far off all the ends of earth.
field: 23026016
23
26
16
O Jehovah, in distress they missed Thee, They have poured out a whisper, Thy chastisement `is' on them.
field: 23026017
23
26
17
When a pregnant woman cometh near to the birth, She is pained -- she crieth in her pangs, So we have been from Thy face, O Jehovah.
field: 23026018
23
26
18
We have conceived, we have been pained. We have brought forth as it were wind, Salvation we do not work in the earth, Nor do the inhabitants of the world fall.
field: 23026019
23
26
19
`Thy dead live -- My dead body they rise. Awake and sing, ye dwellers in the dust, For the dew of herbs `is' thy dew, And the land of Rephaim thou causest to fall.
field: 23026020
23

20
Come, My people, enter into thy inner chambers, And shut thy doors behind thee, Hide thyself shortly a moment till the indignation pass over.
field: 23026021
23
26
21
For, lo, Jehovah is coming out of His place, To charge the iniquity of the inhabitant of the earth upon him, And revealed hath the earth her blood, Nor doth she cover any more her slain!'
field: 23027001
23
27

In that day lay a charge doth Jehovah, With his sword -- the sharp, and the great, and the strong, On leviathan -- a fleeing serpent, And on leviathan -- a crooked serpent, And He hath slain the dragon that `is' in the sea.
field: 23027002
23
27
2
In that day, `A desirable vineyard,' respond ye to her,
field: 23027003
23

3
I, Jehovah, am its keeper, every moment I water it, Lest any lay a charge against it, Night and day I keep it!

Fury is not in Me; Who giveth Me a brier -- a thorn in battle? I step into it, I burn it at once.

Or -- he doth take hold on My strength, He doth make peace with Me, Peace he doth make with Me.

Those coming in He causeth to take root, Jacob doth blossom, and flourished hath Israel, And they have filled the face of the world `with' increase.
field: 23027007
23
27
7
As the smiting of his smiter hath He smitten him? As the slaying of his slain doth He slay?
field: 23027008
23
27
8
In measure, in sending it forth, thou strivest with it, He hath taken away by His sharp wind, In the day of an east wind,
field: 23027009
23
27
9
Therefore by this is the iniquity of Jacob covered, And this `is' all the fruit -- To take away his sin, in His setting all the stones of an altar, As chalkstones beaten in pieces, They rise not -- shrines and images.
field: 23027010
23
27
10
For the fenced city `is' alone, A habitation cast out and forsaken as a wilderness, There doth the calf delight, And there it lieth down, And hath consumed its branches.
field: 23027011
23
27
11
In the withering of its branch it is broken off, Women are coming in setting it on fire, For it `is' not a people of understanding, Therefore pity it not doth its Maker, And its Former doth not favour it.
field: 23027012
23
27
12
And it hath come to pass, in that day, Beat out doth Jehovah from the branch of the river, Unto the stream of Egypt, And ye are gathered one by one, O sons of Israel.
field: 23027013
23
27
13
And it hath come to pass, in that day, It is blown with a great trumpet, And come in have those perishing in the land of Asshur, And those cast out in the land of Egypt, And have bowed themselves to Jehovah, In the holy mount -- in Jerusalem!

Wo `to' the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim. And the fading flower of the beauty of his glory, That `is' on the head of the fat valley of the broken down of wine.
field: 23028002
23
28
2
Lo, a mighty and strong one `is' to the Lord, As a storm of hail -- a destructive shower, As an inundation of mighty waters overflowing, He cast down to the earth with the hand.
field: 23028003
23
28
3
By feet trodden down is the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim,
field: 23028004
23
28
4
And the fading flower of the beauty of his glory That `is' on the head of the fat valley, Hath been as its first-fruit before summer, That its beholder seeth, While it `is' yet in his hand he swalloweth it.
field: 23028005
23
28
5
In that day is Jehovah of Hosts For a crown of beauty, and for a diadem of glory, To the remnant of His people.
field: 23028006
23
28
6
And for a spirit of judgment To him who is sitting in the judgment, And for might `to' those turning back the battle to the gate.
field: 23028007
23
28
7
And even these through wine have erred, And through strong drink have wandered, Priest and prophet erred through strong drink, They have been swallowed up of the wine, They wandered because of the strong drink, They have erred in seeing, They have stumbled judicially.
field: 23028008
23
28
8
For all tables have been full of vomit, Filth -- without place!
field: 23028009
23
28
9
By whom doth He teach knowledge? And by whom doth He cause to understand the report? The weaned from milk, the removed from breasts,
field: 23028010
23
28
10
For rule `is' on rule, rule on rule, line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there,
field: 23028011
23
28
11
For by scorned lip, and by another tongue, Doth He speak unto this people.
field: 23028012
23
28
12
Unto whom He hath said, `This `is' the rest, give ye rest to the weary, And this -- the refreshing:' And they have not been willing to hear,
field: 23028013
23
28
13
And to whom a word of Jehovah hath been, Rule on rule, rule on rule, line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there, So that they go and have stumbled backward, And been broken, and snared, and captured.
field: 23028014
23
28
14
Therefore, hear a word of Jehovah, ye men of scorning, Ruling this people that `is' in Jerusalem.
field: 23028015
23
28
15
Because ye have said: `We have made a covenant with death, And with Sheol we have made a provision, An overflowing scourge, when it passeth over, Doth not meet us, Though we have made a lie our refuge, And in falsehood have been hidden.'
field: 23028016
23
28
16
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: `Lo, I am laying a foundation in Zion, A stone -- a tried stone, a corner stone precious, a settled foundation, He who is believing doth not make haste.
field: 23028017
23
28
17
And I have put judgment for a line, And righteousness for a plummet, And sweep away doth hail the refuge of lies, And the secret hiding-place do waters overflow.
field: 23028018
23
28
18
And disannulled hath been your covenant with death, And your provision with Sheol doth not stand, An overflowing scourge, when it passeth over, Then ye have been to it for a treading-place.
field: 23028019
23
28
19
From the fulness of its passing over it taketh you, For morning by morning it passeth over, By day and by night, And it hath been only a trembling to consider the report.
field: 23028020
23
28
20
For shorter hath been the bed Than to stretch one's self out in, And the covering hath been narrower Than to wrap one's self up in.
field: 23028021
23
28
21
For as `at' mount Perazim rise doth Jehovah, As `at' the valley in Gibeon He is troubled, To do His work -- strange `is' His work, And to do His deed -- strange `is' His deed.'
field: 23028022
23
28
22
And now, show not yourselves scorners, Lest strong be your bands, For a consumption, that is determined, I have heard, by the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, `Is' for all the land.
field: 23028023
23
28

Give ear, and hear my voice, Attend, and hear my saying:
field: 23028024

28
24
The whole day plougheth the ploughman to sow? He openeth and harroweth his ground!
field: 23028025
23
28
25
Hath he not, if he have made level its face, Then scattered fitches, and cummin sprinkle, And hath placed the principal wheat, And the appointed barley, And the rie `in' its own border?
field: 23028026
23
28
26
And instruct him for judgment doth his God, He doth direct him.
field: 23028027
23
28
27
For not with a sharp-pointed thing threshed are fitches, And the wheel of a cart on cummin turned round, For with a staff beaten out are fitches, And cummin with a rod.
field: 23028028
23
28
28
Bread-`corn' is beaten small, For not for ever doth he sorely thresh it, Nor crushed `it' hath a wheel of his cart, Nor do his hoofs beat it small.
field: 23028029
23
28
29
Even this from Jehovah of Hosts hath gone out, He hath made counsel wonderful, He hath made wisdom great!

Wo `to' Ariel, Ariel, The city of the encampment of David! Add year to year, let festivals go round.
field: 23029002
23
29
2
And I have sent distress to Ariel, And it hath been lamentation and mourning, And it hath been to me as Ariel.
field: 23029003
23
29
3
And I encamped, O babbler, against thee, And I laid siege against thee -- a camp. And I raised up against thee bulwarks.
field: 23029004
23
29
4
And thou hast been low, From the earth thou speakest, And from the dust makest thy saying low, And thy voice hath been from the earth, As one having a familiar spirit, And from the dust thy saying whisperest,
field: 23029005
23
29
5
And as small dust hath been The multitude of those scattering thee, And as chaff passing on the multitude of the terrible, And it hath been at an instant -- suddenly.
field: 23029006
23
29
6
By Jehovah of Hosts thou art inspected, With thunder, and with an earthquake, And great noise, hurricane, and whirlwind, And flame of devouring fire.
field: 23029007
23
29
7
And as a dream, a vision of night, hath been The multitude of all the nations Who are warring against Ariel, And all its warriors, and its bulwark, Even of those distressing her.
field: 23029008
23
29
8
And it hath been, as when the hungry dreameth, And lo, he is eating, And he hath waked, and empty `is' his soul, And as when the thirsty dreameth, And lo, he is drinking, and he hath waked, And lo, he is weary, and his soul is longing, So is the multitude of all the nations Who are warring against mount Zion.

Tarry and wonder, look ye, yea, look, Be drunk, and not with wine, Stagger, and not with strong drink.
field: 23029010

For poured out on you hath Jehovah a spirit of deep sleep, And He closeth your eyes -- the prophets, And your heads -- the seers -- He covered.
field: 23029011
23
29
11
And the vision of the whole is to you, As words of the sealed book, That they give unto one knowing books, Saying, `Read this, we pray thee,' And he hath said, `I am not able, for it `is' sealed;'
field: 23029012
23
29
12
And the book is given to him who hath not known books, Saying, `Read this, we pray thee,' And he hath said, `I have not known books.'
field: 23029013
23

13
And the Lord saith: Because drawn near hath this people, with its mouth, And with its lips they have honoured Me, And its heart it hath put far off from Me, And their fear of Me is -- A precept of men is taught!
field: 23029014
23
29
14
Therefore, lo, I am adding to do wonderfully with this people, A wonder, and a marvel, And perished hath the wisdom of its wise ones, And the understanding of its intelligent ones hideth itself.'
field: 23029015
23
29
15
Wo `to' those going deep from Jehovah to hide counsel, And whose works have been in darkness. And they say, `Who is seeing us? And who is knowing us?'
field: 23029016
23
29
16
Your perversion! as clay is the potter esteemed? That the work saith of its maker, `He hath not made me?' And the framed thing said of its framer, `He did not understand?'
field: 23029017
23
29
17
Is it not yet a very little, And turned hath Lebanon to a fruitful field, And the fruitful field for a forest is reckoned?
field: 23029018
23
29
18
And heard in that day have the deaf the words of a book, And out of thick darkness, and out of darkness, The eyes of the blind do see.
field: 23029019
23
29
19
And the humble have added joy in Jehovah, And the poor among men In the Holy One of Israel rejoice.
field: 23029020
23
29
20
For ceased hath the terrible one, And consumed hath been the scorner, And cut off have been all watching for iniquity,
field: 23029021
23

21
Causing men to sin in word, And for a reprover in the gate lay a snare, And turn aside into emptiness the righteous.

Therefore, thus said Jehovah, Who ransomed Abraham, Concerning the house of Jacob: `Not now ashamed is Jacob, Nor now doth his face become pale,
field: 23029023
23
29
23
For in his seeing his children, The work of My hand, in his midst, They sanctify My name, And have sanctified the Holy One of Jacob, And the God of Israel they declare fearful.
field: 23029024
23
29
24
And the erring in spirit have known understanding, And murmurers learn doctrine!'
field: 23030001

Wo `to' apostate sons, The affirmation of Jehovah! To do counsel, and not from Me, And to spread out a covering, and not of My spirit, So as to add sin to sin.

Who are walking to go down to Egypt, And My mouth have not asked, To be strong in the strength of Pharaoh, And to trust in the shadow of Egypt.
field: 23030003
23
30
3
And the strength of Pharaoh Hath been to you for shame, And the trust in the shadow of Egypt confusion,
field: 23030004
23
30

For in Zoan were his princes, And his messengers reach Hanes.
field: 23030005

5
All he made ashamed of a people that profit not, Neither for help, not for profit, But for shame, and also for reproach!
field: 23030006

The burden of the beasts of the south. Into a land of adversity and distress, Of young lion and of old lion, Whence `are' viper and flying saraph, They carry on the shoulder of asses their wealth, And on the hump of camels their treasures, Unto a people not profitable.
field: 23030007
23
30

Yea, Egyptians `are' vanity, and in vain do help, Therefore I have cried concerning this: `Their strength `is' to sit still.'

No, go in, write it on a tablet with them, And on a book engrave it, And it is for a latter day, for a witness unto the age,

Who have said to seers, `Ye do not see,' And to prophets, `Ye do not prophesy to us Straightforward things, Speak to us smooth things, prophesy deceits,

11
Turn aside from the way, decline from the path, Cause to cease from before us the Holy One of Israel.'
field: 23030012

12
Therefore, thus said the Holy One of Israel, Because of your kicking against this word, And ye trust in oppression, And perverseness, and rely on it,
field: 23030013
23
30
13
Therefore is this iniquity to you as a breach falling, Swelled out in a wall set on high, Whose destruction suddenly, at an instant cometh.
field: 23030014
23
30
14
And He hath broken it As the breaking of the potters' bottle, Beaten down -- He doth not spare, Nor is there found, in its beating down, A potsherd to take fire from the burning, And to draw out waters from a ditch.
field: 23030015
23
30
15
For thus said the Lord Jehovah, The Holy One of Israel: `In returning and rest ye are saved, In keeping quiet and in confidence is your might, And ye have not been willing.
field: 23030016
23
30
16
And ye say, No, for on a horse we flee? Therefore ye flee, And on the swift we ride! Therefore swift are your pursuers.
field: 23030017
23
30
17
One thousand because of the rebuke of one, Because of the rebuke of five ye flee, Till ye have been surely left as a pole On the top of the mountain, And as an ensign on the height.
field: 23030018
23
30
18
And therefore doth wait Jehovah to favour you, And therefore He is exalted to pity you, For a God of judgment `is' Jehovah, O the blessedness of all waiting for Him.
field: 23030019
23
30
19
For the people in Zion dwell in Jerusalem, Weep thou not, weeping, Pitying, He pitieth thee at the voice of thy cry, When He heareth He answereth thee.
field: 23030020
23
30
20
And the Lord hath given to you bread of adversity, And water of oppression. And thy directors remove no more, And thine eyes have seen thy directors,
field: 23030021
23
30
21
And thine ear heareth a word behind thee, Saying, `This `is' the way, go ye in it,' When ye turn to the right, And when ye turn to the left.
field: 23030022
23
30
22
And ye have defiled the covering of Thy graven images of silver, And the ephod of thy molten image of gold, Thou scatterest them as a sickening thing, `Go out,' thou sayest to it.
field: 23030023
23
30
23
And He hath given rain `for' thy seed, With which thou dost sow the ground, And bread, the increase of the ground, And it hath been fat and plenteous, Enjoy do thy cattle in that day an enlarged pasture.
field: 23030024
23

And the oxen and the young asses serving the ground, Fermented provender do eat, That one is winnowing with shovel and fan.
field: 23030025
23

25
And there hath been on every high mount, And on every exalted hill, Rivulets -- streams of waters, In a day of much slaughter, in the falling of towers.
field: 23030026
23

26
And the light of the moon hath been as the light of the sun, And the light of the sun is sevenfold, As the light of seven days, In the day of Jehovah's binding up the breach of His people, When the stroke of its wound He healeth.
field: 23030027
23
30

Lo, the name of Jehovah is coming from far, Burning is His anger, and great the flame, His lips have been full of indignation, And His tongue `is' as a devouring fire.
field: 23030028
23
30
28
And His breath `is' as an overflowing stream, Unto the neck it divideth, To sift nations with a sieve of vanity, And a bridle causing to err, `Is' on the jaws of the peoples.
field: 23030029
23
30

Singing is to you as in a night sanctified for a festival, And joy of heart as he who is going with a pipe, To go in to the mountain of Jehovah, Unto the rock of Israel.
field: 23030030

30
And caused to be heard hath Jehovah The honour of His voice, And the coming down of His arm He doth shew with the raging of anger, And the flame of a consuming fire, Scattering, and inundation, and hailstone.
field: 23030031
23
30
31
For from the voice of Jehovah broken down `is' Asshur, With a rod He smiteth.
field: 23030032
23
30
32
And every passage of the settled staff, That Jehovah causeth to rest on him, Hath been with tabrets, and with harps, And in battles of shaking he hath fought with it.
field: 23030033

For, arranged from former time is Tophet, Even it for the king is prepared, He hath made deep, He hath made large, Its pile `is' fire and much wood, The breath of Jehovah, As a stream of brim stone, is burning in it!

Wo `to' those going down to Egypt for help, And on horses lean, And trust on chariots, because many, And on horsemen, because very strong, And have not looked on the Holy One of Israel, And Jehovah have not sought.
field: 23031002
23
31
2
And He also `is' wise, and bringeth in evil, And His words He hath not turned aside, And He hath risen against a house of evil doers, And against the help of workers of iniquity.
field: 23031003
23
31

And the Egyptians `are men', and not God, And their horses `are' flesh, and not spirit, And Jehovah stretcheth out His hand, And stumbled hath the helper, And fallen hath the helped one, And together all of them are consumed.
field: 23031004
23

For thus said Jehovah unto me: `As growl doth the lion and the young lion over his prey, Called against whom is a multitude of shepherds, From their voice he is not affrighted, And from their noise he is not humbled; So come down doth Jehovah of Hosts To war on mount Zion, and on her height.
field: 23031005
23

As birds flying, so doth Jehovah of Hosts Cover over Jerusalem, covering and delivering, Passing over, and causing to escape.'

Turn back to Him from whom sons of Israel Have deepened apostacy.
field: 23031007

For in that day despise doth each His idols of silver, and his idols of gold, That your hands made to you -- a sin.
field: 23031008

And fallen hath Asshur by sword, not of the high, Yea, a sword -- not of the low, doth consume him, And he hath fled for himself from the face of a sword, And his young men become tributary.
field: 23031009
23

And `to' his rock from fear he passeth on, And affrighted by the ensign have been his princes -- an affirmation of Jehovah, Who hath a light in Zion, And who hath a furnace in Jerusalem!

Lo, for righteousness doth a king reign, As to princes, for judgment they rule.

A fool is no more called `noble,' And to a miser it is not said, `rich;'

For a fool speaketh folly, And his heart doth iniquity, to do profanity, And to speak concerning Jehovah error, To empty the soul of the hungry, Yea, drink of the thirsty he causeth to lack.
field: 23032007

And the miser -- his instruments `are' evil, He hath counselled wicked devices, To corrupt the poor with lying sayings, Even when the needy speaketh justly.

And dwelt in the wilderness hath judgment, And righteousness in the fruitful field remaineth.

And a work of the righteousness hath been peace, And a service of the righteousness -- Keeping quiet and confidence unto the age.

And I put My words in thy mouth, And with the shadow of My hand have covered thee, To plant the heavens, and to found earth, And to say to Zion, `My people `art' thou.'

Stir thyself, stir thyself, rise, Jerusalem, Who hast drunk from the hand of Jehovah The cup of His fury, The goblet, the cup of trembling, thou hast drunk, Thou hast wrung out.

Thy sons have been wrapt up, they have lain down, At the head of all out places, as a wild ox `in' a net, They are full of the fury of Jehovah, The rebuke of Thy God.

Therefore, hear, I pray thee, this, O afflicted and drunken one, and not with wine,

Thus said thy Lord Jehovah, and thy God, He pleadeth `for' his people: `Lo, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of trembling, The goblet, the cup of My fury, Thou dost not add to drink it any more.
field: 23051023

And I have put it into the hand of those afflicting thee, Who have said to thy soul, Bow down, and we pass over, And thou makest as the earth thy body, And as the street to those passing by!'

Shake thyself from dust, arise, sit, O Jerusalem, Bands of thy neck have loosed themselves, O captive, daughter of Zion.

For thus said Jehovah: `For nought ye have been sold, And not by money are ye redeemed.'
field: 23052004

For thus said the Lord Jehovah: `To Egypt My people went down at first to sojourn there, And Asshur -- for nought he hath oppressed it.

And now, what -- to Me here, An affirmation of Jehovah, That taken is My people for nought? Its rulers cause howling, -- an affirmation of Jehovah, And continually all the day My name is despised.

Therefore doth My people know My name, Therefore, in that day, Surely I `am' He who is speaking, behold Me.'

Break forth, sing together, O wastes of Jerusalem, For Jehovah hath comforted His people, He hath redeemed Jerusalem.

Turn aside, turn aside, go out thence, The unclean touch not, go out from her midst, Be ye pure, who are bearing the weapons of Jehovah.

Lo, My servant doth act wisely, He is high, and hath been lifted up, And hath been very high.

Who hath given credence to that which we heard? And the arm of Jehovah, On whom hath it been revealed?

Yea, he cometh up as a tender plant before Him, And as a root out of a dry land, He hath no form, nor honour, when we observe him, Nor appearance, when we desire him.
field: 23053003
23
53
3
He is despised, and left of men, A man of pains, and acquainted with sickness, And as one hiding the face from us, He is despised, and we esteemed him not.
field: 23053004
23
53
4
Surely our sicknesses he hath borne, And our pains -- he hath carried them, And we -- we have esteemed him plagued, Smitten of God, and afflicted.
field: 23053005
23
53
5
And he is pierced for our transgressions, Bruised for our iniquities, The chastisement of our peace `is' on him, And by his bruise there is healing to us.
field: 23053006
23
53
6
All of us like sheep have wandered, Each to his own way we have turned, And Jehovah hath caused to meet on him, The punishment of us all.
field: 23053007
23
53
7
It hath been exacted, and he hath answered, And he openeth not his mouth, As a lamb to the slaughter he is brought, And as a sheep before its shearers is dumb, And he openeth not his mouth.
field: 23053008
23
53
8
By restraint and by judgment he hath been taken, And of his generation who doth meditate, That he hath been cut off from the land of the living? By the transgression of My people he is plagued,
field: 23053009
23
53
9
And it appointeth with the wicked his grave, And with the rich `are' his high places, Because he hath done no violence, Nor `is' deceit in his mouth.
field: 23053010
23
53
10
And Jehovah hath delighted to bruise him, He hath made him sick, If his soul doth make an offering for guilt, He seeth seed -- he prolongeth days, And the pleasure of Jehovah in his hand doth prosper.
field: 23053011
23
53
11
Of the labour of his soul he seeth -- he is satisfied, Through his knowledge give righteousness Doth the righteous one, My servant, to many, And their iniquities he doth bear.
field: 23053012
23
53
12
Therefore I give a portion to him among the many, And with the mighty he apportioneth spoil, Because that he exposed to death his soul, And with transgressors he was numbered, And he the sin of many hath borne, And for transgressors he intercedeth.

Sing, O barren, she hath not borne! Break forth with singing, and cry aloud, She hath not brought forth! For more `are' the sons of the desolate, Than the sons of the married one, said Jehovah.

I have given to them in My house, And within My walls a station and a name, Better than sons and than daughters, A name age-during I give to him That is not cut off.

Go to and fro in streets of Jerusalem, And see, I pray you, and know, And seek in her broad places, if ye find a man, If there be one doing judgment, seeking stedfastness -- Then am I propitious to her.

And if they say, `Jehovah liveth,' Surely to a falsehood they swear.

Jehovah, Thine eyes, are they not on stedfastness? Thou hast smitten them, and they have not grieved, Thou hast consumed them, They have refused to receive instruction, They made their faces harder than a rock, They have refused to turn back.
field: 24005004

And I -- I said, `Surely these `are' poor, They have been foolish, For they have not known the way of Jehovah, The judgment of their God.
field: 24005005

I get me to the great, and I speak with them, For they have known the way of Jehovah, The judgment of their God.' Surely they together have broken the yoke, They have drawn away the bands.

Therefore smitten them hath a lion out of the forest, A wolf of the deserts doth spoil them, A leopard is watching over their cities, Every one who is going out of them is torn, For many have been their transgressions, Mighty have been their backslidings.

For this I am not propitious to thee, Thy sons have forsaken Me, And are satisfied by that which is not god, I satisfy them, and they commit adultery, And at the house of a harlot They gather themselves together.

For these do I not lay a charge? An affirmation of Jehovah, And on a nation such as this, Doth not My soul avenge itself?

Go ye up on her walls, and destroy, And a completion make not, Turn aside her branches, for they `are' not Jehovah's,

For dealt treacherously against Me have the house of Israel, And the house of Judah, an affirmation of Jehovah.

They have lied against Jehovah, And they say, ``It is' not He, Nor come in against us doth evil, Yea, sword and famine we do not see.

13
And the prophets become wind, And the word is not in them,' -- thus it is done by them.

Therefore, thus said Jehovah, God of Hosts, Because of your speaking this word, Lo, I am making My words in thy mouth become fire, And this people wood, and it hath devoured them.
field: 24005015

15
Lo, I am bringing against you a nation from afar, O house of Israel, an affirmation of Jehovah, A nation -- strong it `is', a nation -- from of old it `is', A nation -- thou knowest not its tongue, Nor understandest what it speaketh.

Its quiver `is' as an open sepulchre, All of them -- mighty ones.

And it hath consumed thy harvest and thy bread, They consume thy sons, and thy daughters, It consumeth thy flock, and thy herd, It consumeth thy vine, and thy fig-tree, It maketh poor thy fenced cities, In which thou art trusting -- by the sword.
field: 24005018

And even in those days, an affirmation of Jehovah, I do not make you a completion.

And it hath come to pass, when ye say, `For what hath Jehovah our God done to us all these?' That thou hast said unto them, `As ye have forsaken Me, And serve the gods of a foreigner in your land, So do ye serve strangers in a land not yours.

Declare ye this in the house of Jacob, And sound ye it in Judah, saying,

Me do ye not fear, an affirmation of Jehovah? From My presence are ye not pained? Who hath made sand the border of the sea, A limit age-during, and it passeth not over it, They shake themselves, and they are not able, Yea, sounded have its billows, and they pass not over.

And this people hath an apostate and rebellious heart, They have turned aside, and they go on.

Your iniquities have turned these away, And your sins have kept the good from you.

Unto her come do shepherds and their droves, They have stricken tents by her round about, They have fed each `in' his own station.

Sanctify ye against her the battle, Rise, and we go up at noon. Wo to us, for turned hath the day, For stretched out are the shades of evening,

`Rise, and we go up by night, And we destroy her palaces.'

As the digging of a well, is `for' its waters, So she hath digged `for' her wickedness, Violence and spoil is heard in her, Before My face continually `are' sickness and smiting.

To whom do I speak, and testify, and they hear? Lo, their ear `is' uncircumcised, And they are not able to attend. Lo, a word of Jehovah hath been to them for a reproach, They delight not in it.
field: 24006011
24

11
And with the fury of Jehovah I have been filled, (I have been weary of containing,) To pour `it' on the suckling in the street, And on the assembly of youths together, For even husband with wife are captured, An elder with one full of days,
field: 24006012
24

And their houses have been turned to others, Fields and wives together, For I stretch out My hand against the inhabitants of the land, An affirmation of Jehovah.

For from their least unto their greatest, Every one is gaining dishonest gain, And from prophet even unto priest, Every one is dealing falsely,

And they heal the breach of the daughter of my people slightly, Saying, `Peace, peace!' and there is no peace.
field: 24006015
24

15
They were ashamed when they did abomination! Yea, they are not at all ashamed, Yea, blushing they have not known, Therefore they do fall among those falling, In the time I have inspected them, They stumble, said Jehovah.
field: 24006016

Thus said Jehovah: Stand ye by the ways and see, and ask for paths of old, Where `is' this -- the good way? and go ye in it, And find rest for yourselves. And they say, `We do not go.'
field: 24006017
24

17
And I have raised up for you watchmen, Attend ye to the voice of the trumpet. And they say, `We do not attend.'

Therefore hear, O nations, and know, O company, That which `is' upon them.

Hear, O earth, lo, I am bringing evil on this people, The fruit of their devices, For to My words they gave no attention, And My law -- they kick against it.

Why `is' this to Me? frankincense from Sheba cometh, And the sweet cane from a land afar off, Your burnt-offerings `are' not for acceptance, And your sacrifices have not been sweet to Me.
field: 24006021

Therefore thus said Jehovah: Lo, I do give to this people stumbling blocks, And stumbled against them have fathers and sons together, The neighbour and his friend do perish.

Thus said Jehovah: Lo, a people hath come from a north country, And a great nation is stirred up from the sides of the earth.

Bow and javelin they take hold of, Fierce it `is', and they have no mercy, Their voice as a sea doth sound, And on horses they ride, set in array as a man of war, Against thee, O daughter of Zion.

2
Stand in the gate of the house of Jehovah, and thou hast proclaimed there this word, and hast said, Hear a word of Jehovah, all ye of Judah, who are coming in at these gates, to bow before Jehovah:

Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Amend your ways, and your doings, And I cause you to dwell in this place.
field: 24007004

Do not trust for yourselves Unto the words of falsehood, saying, The temple of Jehovah, the temple of Jehovah, The temple of Jehovah `are' they!
field: 24007005

For, if ye do thoroughly amend your ways and your doings, If ye do judgment thoroughly Between a man and his neighbour,
field: 24007006

6
Sojourner, fatherless, and widow, ye oppress not, And innocent blood do not shed in this place, And after other gods do not walk, for evil to yourselves,
field: 24007007

7
Then I have caused you to dwell in this place, In the land that I gave to your fathers, From age even unto age.
field: 24007008
24
7
8
Lo, ye are trusting for yourselves On the words of falsehood, so as not to profit.
field: 24007009

Stealing, murdering, and committing adultery, And swearing to falsehood, and giving perfume to Baal, And going after other gods whom ye knew not.
field: 24007010

And ye have come in and stood before Me, In this house on which My name is called, And have said, `We have been delivered,' In order to do all these abominations.
field: 24007011

11
A den of burglars hath this house, On which My name is called, been in your eyes? Even I, lo, I have seen, an affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 24007012

12
But go ye, I pray you, Unto My place that `is' in Shiloh, Where I caused My name to dwell at first, And see that which I have done to it, For the wickedness of My people Israel.
field: 24007013
24
7
13
And now, because of your doing all these works, An affirmation of Jehovah, And I speak unto you, rising early and speaking, And ye have not hearkened, And I call you, and ye have not answered,
field: 24007014
24
7
14
I also to the house on which My name is called, In which ye are trusting, And to the place that I gave to you, and to your fathers, Have done, as I have done to Shiloh.
field: 24007015
24
7
15
And I have cast you from before My face, As I have cast out all your brethren, The whole seed of Ephraim.
field: 24007016
24
7
16
And thou dost not pray for this people, Nor lift up for them crying and prayer, Nor intercede with Me, for I hear thee not.
field: 24007017

17
Art thou not seeing what they are doing In cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem?
field: 24007018
24

18
The sons are gathering wood, And the fathers are causing the fire to burn, And the women are kneading dough, To make cakes to the queen of the heavens, And to pour out libations to other gods, So as to provoke Me to anger.
field: 24007019

19
Me are they provoking to anger? an affirmation of Jehovah, Is it not themselves, For the shame of their own faces?
field: 24007020

Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah, Lo, Mine anger and My fury is poured out on this place, On man, and beast, and on tree of the field, And on fruit of the ground, And it hath burned, and it is not quenched.
field: 24007021

Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Your burnt-offerings add to your sacrifices, And eat ye flesh.
field: 24007022

22
For I did not speak with your fathers, Nor did I command them in the day of My bringing them out of the land of Egypt, Concerning the matters of burnt-offering and sacrifice,
field: 24007023
24
7
23
But this thing I commanded them, saying: Hearken to My voice, And I have been to you for God, And ye -- ye are to Me for a people, And have walked in all the way that I command you, So that it is well for you.
field: 24007024
24

And they have not hearkened, nor inclined their ear, And they walk in the counsels, In the stubbornness, of their evil heart, And are for backward, and not for forward.
field: 24007025
24
7
25
Even from the day when your fathers Went out of the land of Egypt till this day, I send to you all my servants the prophets, Daily rising early and sending,
field: 24007026
24
7
26
And they have not hearkened unto Me, Nor inclined their ear, and harden their neck, They have done evil above their fathers.
field: 24007027
24
7
27
And thou hast spoken unto them all these words, And they do not hearken to thee, And thou hast called unto them, And they do not answer thee.
field: 24007028
24
7
28
And thou hast said unto them: This `is' the nation that hath not hearkened, To the voice of Jehovah its God, Nor have they accepted instruction, Perished hath stedfastness, Yea, it hath been cut off from their mouth.
field: 24007029
24

Cut off thy crown, and cast `it' away, And lift up on high places lamentation, For Jehovah hath rejected, And He leaveth the generation of His wrath.

field: 24007031
24
7
31
And have built the high places of Tophet, That `are' in the valley of the son of Hinnom, To burn their sons and their daughters with fire, Which I did not command, Nor did it come up on My heart.

24

Therefore, lo, days are coming, An affirmation of Jehovah, And it is not said any more, `The Tophet,' And `Valley of the son of Hinnom,' But `Valley of the slaughter,' And they have buried in Tophet -- without place.

And the carcase of this people hath been for food To a fowl of the heavens, and to a beast of the earth, And there is none troubling.
field: 24007034

And I have caused to cease from cities of Judah, And from streets of Jerusalem, The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, Voice of bridegroom, and voice of bride, For the land doth become a desolation!

And have spread them to sun, and to moon, And to all the host of the heavens, that they have loved, And that they have served, And that they have walked after, And that they have sought, And to which they have bowed themselves, They are not gathered, nor buried, They are for dung on the face of the ground.

Wherefore hath this people of Jerusalem Turned back -- a perpetual backsliding? They have kept hold on deceit, They have refused to turn back.
field: 24008006

I have given attention, yea, I hearken, They do not speak right, No man hath repented of his wickedness, Saying, What have I done? Every one hath turned to his courses, As a horse is rushing into battle.
field: 24008007

Even a stork in the heavens hath known her seasons, And turtle, and swallow, and crane, Have watched the time of their coming, And -- My people have not known the judgment of Jehovah.

Therefore, I give their wives to others, Their fields to dispossessors, For from the least even unto the greatest, Every one is gaining dishonest gain, From prophet even unto priest, every one is dealing falsely.

And they heal the breach of the daughter of my people slightly, Saying, Peace, peace! and there is no peace.
field: 24008012

They were ashamed when they did abomination! Yea, they are not at all ashamed, And blushing they have not known, Therefore, they do fall among falling ones, In the time of their inspection they stumble, said Jehovah.

Wherefore are we sitting still? Be gathered, and we go in to the fenced cities, And we are silent there, For Jehovah our God hath made us silent, Yea, He causeth us to drink water of gall, For we have sinned against Jehovah.

For the mountains I lift up weeping and wailing, And for the habitations of the wilderness a lamentation, For they have been burnt up without any passing over, Nor have they heard the voice of cattle, From the fowl of the heavens unto the beast they have fled, they have gone.

11
And I make Jerusalem become heaps, A habitation of dragons, And the cities of Judah I make a desolation, Without inhabitant.
field: 24009012
24

12
Who `is' the wise man? and he understandeth this, And he to whom the mouth of Jehovah spake? And he doth declare it, For what hath the land perished? It hath been burnt up as a wilderness, Without any passing through.
field: 24009013
24

13
And Jehovah saith: Because of their forsaking My law that I set before them, And they have not hearkened to My voice nor walked in it,
field: 24009014
24
9
14
And they walk after the stubbornness of their heart, And after the Baalim, that their fathers taught them,
field: 24009015
24

15
Therefore, thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: Lo, I am causing them -- this people -- to eat wormwood, And I have caused them to drink water of gall,
field: 24009016
24

16
And I have scattered them among nations Which they knew not, they and their fathers, And have sent after them the sword, Till I have consumed them.
field: 24009017

17
Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Consider ye, and call for mourning women, And they come, And to the wise women send, and they come,
field: 24009018
24

18
And they hasten, and lift up for us a wailing. And run down our eyes do tears, And from our eyelids do waters flow.
field: 24009019
24
9
19
For -- a voice of wailing is heard from Zion: How have we been spoiled! We have been greatly ashamed, Because we have forsaken the land, Because they have cast down our tabernacles.
field: 24009020
24

20
But hear, ye women, a word of Jehovah, And your ear receiveth a word of His mouth, And teach ye your daughters wailing, and each her neighbour lamentation.
field: 24009021

For death hath come up into our windows, It hath come into our palaces, To cut off the suckling from without, Young men from the broad places.

Speak thus -- an affirmation of Jehovah, And fallen hath the carcase of man, As dung on the face of the field, And as a handful after the reaper, And there is none gathering.

Thus said Jehovah: Let not the wise boast himself in his wisdom, Nor let the mighty boast himself in his might, Let not the rich boast himself in his riches,
field: 24009024
24
9
24
But -- in this let the boaster boast himself, In understanding and knowing Me, For I `am' Jehovah, doing kindness, Judgment, and righteousness, in the earth, For in these I have delighted, An affirmation of Jehovah.

Lo, days are coming -- an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have laid a charge on all circumcised in the foreskin,
field: 24009026
24
9
26
On Egypt, and on Judah, and on Edom, And on the sons of Ammon, and on Moab, And on all cutting the corner `of the beard', Who are dwelling in the wilderness, For all the nations `are' uncircumcised, And all the house of Israel `are' uncircumcised in heart!
field: 24010001

Hear ye the word, O house of Israel, That Jehovah hath spoken for you.

Thus said Jehovah: Unto the way of the nations accustom not yourselves, And by the signs of the heavens be not affrighted, For the nations are affrighted by them.
field: 24010003

For the statutes of the peoples are vanity, For a tree from a forest hath one cut, Work of the hands of an artificer, with an axe,
field: 24010004

With silver and with gold they beautify it, With nails and with hammers they fix it, And it doth not stumble.

As a palm they `are' stiff, and they speak not, They are surely borne, for they step not, Be not afraid of them, for they do no evil, Yea, also to do good is not in them.
field: 24010006
24
10

Because there is none like Thee, O Jehovah, Great `art' Thou, and great Thy name in might.
field: 24010007
24
10
7
Who doth not fear Thee, king of the nations? For to Thee it is becoming, For among all the wise of the nations, And in all their kingdom there is none like Thee.
field: 24010008

And in one they are brutish and foolish, An instruction of vanities `is' the tree itself.

Spread-out silver from Tarshish is brought, And gold from Uphaz, Work of an artizan, and of the hands of a refiner, Blue and purple `is' their clothing, Work of the skilful -- all of them.
field: 24010010
24

And Jehovah `is' a God of truth, He `is' a living God, and a king age-during, From His wrath shake doth the earth, And nations endure not His indignation.

Thus do ye say to them, The gods Who the heavens and earth have not made, They do perish from the earth, And from under these heavens.
field: 24010012
24

12
The maker of the earth by His power, The establisher of the world by His wisdom, Who, by His understanding, stretched forth the heavens,
field: 24010013
24
10
13
At the voice He giveth forth, A multitude of waters `is' in the heavens, And He causeth vapours to come up from the end of the earth, Lightnings for rain He hath made, And bringeth out wind from His treasures.
field: 24010014
24

Brutish is every man by knowledge, Put to shame is every refiner by a graven image, For false `is' his molten image. And there is no breath in them.
field: 24010015

Vanity `are' they, work of erring ones, In the time of their inspection they perish.

Not like these `is' the Portion of Jacob, For framer of all things `is' He, And Israel `is' the rod of His inheritance, Jehovah of Hosts `is' His name.

Gather from the land thy merchandise, O dweller in the bulwark,

For thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am slinging out the inhabitants of the land at this time, And have been an adversary to them, So that they are found out.

Wo to me for my breaking, Grievious hath been my smiting, And I said, Only, this `is' my sickness, and I bear it.

My tent hath been spoiled, And all my cords have been broken, My sons have gone out from me, and they are not, There is none stretching out any more my tent, And raising up my curtains.
field: 24010021

10
21
For the shepherds have become brutish, And Jehovah they have not sought, Therefore they have not acted wisely, And all their flock is scattered.

A voice of a report, lo, it hath come, Even a great shaking from the north country, To make the cities of Judah a desolation, A habitation of dragons.

I have known, O Jehovah, that not of man `is' his way, Not of man the going and establishing of his step.

Chastise me, O Jehovah, only in judgment, Not in Thine anger, lest Thou make me small.
field: 24010025
24
10
25
Pour out Thy fury on the nations that have not known Thee, And on the families that have not called in Thy name, For they have eaten up Jacob, Yea, they have eaten him up, yea, they consume him, And his habitation they have made desolate!

The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying:
field: 24011002
24
11
2
`Hear ye the words of this covenant, and ye have spoken unto the men of Judah, and unto the inhabitants of Jerusalem,
field: 24011003
24
11
3
and thou hast said unto them, Thus said Jehovah God of Israel: Cursed `is' the man who doth not obey the words of this covenant,
field: 24011004
24
11
4
That I commanded your fathers, In the day of My bringing them out from the land of Egypt, Out of the iron furnace, saying, Hearken to My voice, and ye have done them, According to all that I command you, And ye have been to Me for a people, And I am to you for God,
field: 24011005
24
11
5
In order to establish the oath that I have sworn to your fathers, To give to them a land flowing with milk and honey, as this day. And I answer and say, `Amen, O Jehovah.'
field: 24011006
24
11
6
And Jehovah saith unto me, `Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying: Hear ye the words of this covenant, And ye have done them.
field: 24011007
24
11
7
For I certainly testified against your fathers, In the day of My bringing them up out of the land of Egypt -- till this day, Rising early and testifying, saying, Hearken to My voice,
field: 24011008
24
11
8
And they have not hearkened nor inclined their ear, And they walk each in the stubbornness of their evil heart, And I bring on them all the words of this covenant, That I commanded to do, and they did not.'
field: 24011009
24
11
9
And Jehovah saith unto me: `A conspiracy is found in the men of Judah, And in the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
field: 24011010
24
11
10
They have turned back to the iniquities of their first fathers, Who refused to hear My words, And they have gone after other gods to serve them, The house of Israel, and the house of Judah, Have made void My covenant, that I made with their fathers.
field: 24011011
24
11
11
Therefore thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am bringing in unto them evil, That they are not able to go out from, And they have cried unto Me, And I do not hearken unto them.
field: 24011012
24
11
12
And the cities of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem have gone, And they have cried unto the gods, To whom they are making perfume, And they give no deliverance at all to them, In the time of their vexation.
field: 24011013
24
11
13
For -- the number of thy cities have been thy gods, O Judah, And -- the number of the streets of Jerusalem Ye have placed altars to a shameful thing, Altars to make perfume to Baal.
field: 24011014
24
11
14
And thou, thou dost not pray for this people, Nor dost thou lift up for them cry and prayer, For I do not hearken in the time of their calling unto Me for their vexation.
field: 24011015
24
11
15
What -- to My beloved in My house, Her doing wickedness with many, And the holy flesh do pass over from thee? When thou dost evil, then thou exultest.

`An olive, green, fair, of goodly fruit,' Hath Jehovah called thy name, At the noise of a great tumult He hath kindled fire against it, And broken have been its thin branches.
field: 24011017
24
11
17
And Jehovah of Hosts, who is planting thee, Hath spoken evil concerning thee, For the evil of the house of Israel, and of the house of Judah, That they have done to themselves, To provoke Me to anger, to make perfume to Baal.
field: 24011018
24
11
18
And, O Jehovah, cause me to know, and I know, Then Thou hast showed me their doings.
field: 24011019
24
11
19
And I `am' as a trained lamb brought to slaughter, And I have not known That against me they have devised devices: We destroy the tree with its food, and cut him off From the land of the living, And his name is not remembered again.
field: 24011020
24
11
20
And O Jehovah of Hosts, judging righteousness, Trying reins and heart, I do see Thy vengeance against them, For unto Thee I have revealed my cause.'
field: 24011021
24
11
21
Therefore, thus said Jehovah concerning the men of Anathoth, who are seeking thy life, saying: Do not prophesy in the name of Jehovah, And thou dost not die by our hands.
field: 24011022

22
Therefore, thus said Jehovah of Hosts: `Lo, I am seeing after them, The chosen ones die by sword, Their sons and their daughters die by famine,
field: 24011023
24

23
And they have no remnant, For I bring evil unto the men of Anathoth, The year of their inspection!'

Righteous `art' Thou, O Jehovah, When I plead towards thee, Only, judgments do I speak with Thee, Wherefore did the way of the wicked prosper? At rest have been all treacherous dealers.
field: 24012002
24
12
2
Thou hast planted them, yea, they have taken root, They go on, yea, they have made fruit, Near `art' Thou in their mouth, And far off from their reins.
field: 24012003

And Thou, O Jehovah, Thou hast known me, Thou seest me, and hast tried my heart with Thee, Draw them away as sheep to slaughter, And separate them for a day of slaughter.

Till when doth the earth mourn, And the herb of the whole field wither? For the wickedness of those dwelling in it, Consumed have been beast and fowl, Because they said, `He doth not see our latter end.'

For even thy brethren and the house of thy father, Even they dealt treacherously against thee, Even they -- they called after thee fully, Trust not in them, when they speak to thee good things.
field: 24012007

I have forsaken My house, I have left Mine inheritance, I have given the beloved of My soul Into the hand of her enemies.
field: 24012008

Mine inheritance hath been to Me as a lion in a forest, She gave forth against Me with her voice, Therefore I have hated her.

Many shepherds did destroy My vineyard, They have trodden down My portion, They have made My desirable portion Become a wilderness -- a desolation.

He hath made it become a desolation, The desolation hath mourned unto Me, Desolated hath been all the land, But there is no one laying it to heart.

On all high places in the plain have spoilers come in, For the sword of Jehovah is consuming, From the end of the land even unto the end of the land, There is no peace to any flesh.

They sowed wheat, and have thorns reaped, They have become sick -- they profit not, And they have been ashamed of your increases, Because of the fierceness of the anger of Jehovah.

Thus said Jehovah concerning all my evil neighbours, who are striking against the inheritance that I caused my people -- Israel -- to inherit: `Lo, I am plucking them from off their ground, And the house of Judah I pluck out of their midst.
field: 24012015
24
12
15
And it hath been, after My plucking them out, I turn back, and have pitied them, And I have brought them back, Each to his inheritance, and each to his land.
field: 24012016
24
12
16
And it hath come to pass, If they learn well the ways of My people, To swear by My name, `Jehovah liveth,' As they taught My people to swear by Baal, Then they have been built up in the midst of My people.
field: 24012017
24

And if they do not hearken, Then I have plucked up that nation, Plucking up and destroying, An affirmation of Jehovah!'

Thus said Jehovah unto me, `Go, and thou hast got for thee a girdle of linen, and hast placed it on thy loins, and into water thou dost not cause it to enter:'
field: 24013002
24
13
2
and I get the girdle, according to the word of Jehovah, and I place `it' on my loins.
field: 24013003
24
13
3
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me a second time, saying,
field: 24013004
24
13
4
`Take the girdle that thou hast got, that `is' on thy loins, and rise, go to Phrat, and hide it there in a hole of the rock;
field: 24013005
24
13
5
and I go and hide it by Phrat, as Jehovah commanded me.
field: 24013006
24
13
6
And it cometh to pass, at the end of many days, that Jehovah saith unto me, `Rise, go to Phrat, and take thence the girdle, that I commanded thee to hide there;'
field: 24013007
24
13
7
and I go to Phrat, and dig, and take the girdle from the place where I had hid it; and lo, the girdle hath been marred, it is not profitable for anything.
field: 24013008
24
13
8
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, `Thus said Jehovah:
field: 24013009

9
Thus do I mar the excellency of Judah, And the great excellency of Jerusalem.
field: 24013010

This evil people, who refuse to hear My words, Who walk in the stubbornness of their heart, And go after other gods to serve them, And to bow themselves to them, Yea it is -- as this girdle, that is not profitable for anything.
field: 24013011
24

11
For, as the girdle cleaveth unto the loins of a man, So I caused to cleave unto Me The whole house of Israel, And the whole house of Judah, an affirmation of Jehovah, To be to Me for a people, and for a name, And for praise, and for beauty, And they have not hearkened.

And thou hast said unto them, `Thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am filling all the inhabitants of this land, And the kings who sit for David on his throne, And the priests, and the prophets, And all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, `With' drunkenness,

Because the ground hath been broken, For there hath been no rain in the land, Ashamed have been husbandmen, They have covered their head.

For even the hind in the field hath brought forth -- to forsake `it!' For there hath been no grass.

Thus said Jehovah concerning this people: Well they have loved to wander, Their feet they have not restrained, And Jehovah hath not accepted them, Now doth He remember their iniquity, And inspect their sin.
field: 24014011
24

11
And Jehovah saith unto me: Thou dost not pray for this people for good,
field: 24014012
24
14
12
When they fast, I hearken not unto their cry, And when they cause to ascend burnt-offering and present, I accept them not, For by sword, and by famine, And by pestilence, I am consuming them.

And if ye do not hearken unto me to sanctify the day of rest, And so as not to bear a burden, And to come in at the gates of Jerusalem on the day of rest, Then I have kindled a fire in its gates, And it hath consumed the high places of Jerusalem, And it is not quenched!'

And I have given all the strength of this city, And all its labour, and all its precious things, Yea, all the treasures of the kings of Judah I do give into the hand of their enemies, And they have spoiled them, and taken them, And have brought them into Babylon.

And thou, Pashhur, and all dwelling in thy house, Do go into captivity. and Babylon thou dost enter, And there thou diest, and there thou art buried, Thou and all loving thee, To whom thou hast prophesied falsely.'

Thou hast persuaded me, O Jehovah, and I am persuaded; Thou hast hardened me, and dost prevail, I have been for a laughter all the day, Every one is mocking at me,
field: 24020008
24
20
8
Because from the time I speak I cry out, `Violence and destruction,' I cry, For the word of Jehovah hath been to me For reproach and for derision all the day.
field: 24020009
24
20
9
And I said, `I do not mention Him, Nor do I speak any more in His name,' And it hath been in my heart As a burning fire shut up in my bones, And I have been weary of containing, And I am not able.
field: 24020010

For I have heard the evil report of many, Fear `is' round about: `Declare, and we declare it,' All mine allies are watching `for' my halting, `Perhaps he is enticed, and we prevail over him, And we take our vengeance out of him.'
field: 24020011
24

11
And Jehovah `is' with me, as a terrible mighty one, Therefore my persecutors stumble and prevail not, They have been exceedingly ashamed, For they have not acted wisely, Confusion age-during is not forgotten.
field: 24020012
24
20
12
And, O Jehovah of Hosts, trier of the righteous, Beholder of reins and heart, I do see Thy vengeance out of them, For unto Thee I have revealed my cause.
field: 24020013

13
Sing ye to Jehovah, praise Jehovah, For He hath delivered the soul of the needy From the hand of evil doers.

Cursed `is' the day in which I was born, The day that my mother bare me, Let it not be blessed!

Cursed `is' the man who bore tidings `to' my father, saying, `Born to thee hath been a child -- a male,' Making him very glad!
field: 24020016
24

16
Then hath that man been as the cities, That Jehovah overthrew, and repented not, And he hath heard a cry at morning, And a shout at time of noon.
field: 24020017
24
20
17
Because he hath not put me to death from the womb, And my mother is to me -- my grave, And her womb a pregnancy age-during.

Why `is' this? from the womb I have come out, To see labour and sorrow, Yea, consumed in shame are my days!

The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, in the king Zedekiah's sending unto him Pashhur son of Malchiah, and Zephaniah son of Maaseiah the priest, saying,
field: 24021002
24
21
2
`Inquire, we pray thee, for us at Jehovah, for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath fought against us; perhaps Jehovah doth deal with us according to all His wonders, and doth cause him to go up from off us.'
field: 24021003
24
21
3
And Jeremiah saith unto them, `Thus do ye say unto Zedekiah,
field: 24021004
24
21
4
Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel: Lo, I am turning round the weapons of battle That `are' in your hand, With which ye do fight the king of Babylon, And the Chaldeans, who are laying siege against you, At the outside of the wall, And I have gathered them into the midst of this city,
field: 24021005
24
21
5
And I -- I have fought against you, With a stretched-out hand, and with a strong arm, And in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath,
field: 24021006
24
21
6
And I have smitten the inhabitants of this city, Both man and beast, By a great pestilence do they die.
field: 24021007
24
21
7
And after this -- an affirmation of Jehovah, I give Zedekiah king of Judah, And his servants, and the people, And those left in this city, From the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, Into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, And into the hand of their enemies, And into the hand of those seeking their life, And he hath smitten them by the mouth of the sword, He hath no pity on them, Nor doth he spare, nor hath he mercy.
field: 24021008

And unto this people thou dost say, Thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am setting before you the way of life, And the way of death!

9
Whoso is abiding in this city -- dieth, By sword, and by famine, and by pestilence, And whoso is going forth, And hath fallen unto the Chaldeans, Who are laying siege against you -- liveth, And his life hath been to him for a spoil.
field: 24021010

For I have set My face against this city for evil, And not for good -- an affirmation of Jehovah. Into the hand of the king of Babylon it is given, And he hath burned it with fire.
field: 24021011
24
21
11
And as to the house of the king of Judah, Hear ye a word of Jehovah;
field: 24021012
24
21
12
O house of David, thus said Jehovah: Decide ye judgment at morning, And deliver the plundered from the hand of the oppressor, Lest My fury go forth as fire, And hath burned, and none is quenching, Because of the evil of your doings.
field: 24021013

Lo, I `am' against thee -- an affirmation of Jehovah, O inhabitant of the valley, rock of the plain, Who are saying, Who cometh down against us? And who cometh into our habitations?

And I have laid a charge against you, According to the fruit of your doings, An affirmation of Jehovah, And I have kindled a fire in its forest, And it hath consumed -- all its suburbs!

Thus said Jehovah, `Go down `to' the house of the king of Judah, and thou hast spoken there this word, and hast said,

2
Hear a word of Jehovah, O king of Judah, who art sitting on the throne of David, thou, and thy servants, and thy people, who are coming in at these gates,

Thus said Jehovah: Do ye judgment and righteousness, And deliver the plundered from the hand of the oppressor, And sojourner, orphan, and widow, ye do not oppress nor wrong, And innocent blood ye do not shed in this place.
field: 24022004

For, if ye certainly do this thing, Then come in by the gates of this house Have kings sitting for David on his throne, Riding on chariot, and on horses, He, and his servants, and his people.

5
And if ye do not hear these words, By myself I have sworn -- an affirmation of Jehovah, That this house is for a desolation.

For thus said Jehovah, Concerning the house of the king of Judah: Gilead `art' thou to Me -- head of Lebanon, If not -- I make thee a wilderness, Cities not inhabited.
field: 24022007
24
22
7
And I have separated for thee destroyers, Each with his weapons, And they have cut down the choice of thy cedars, And have cast them on the fire.
field: 24022008
24
22
8
And many nations have passed by this city, And they have said, each to his neighbour, For what hath Jehovah done thus to this great city?
field: 24022009
24

And they have said, `Because that they have forsaken The covenant of Jehovah their God, And bow themselves to other gods, and serve them.'

For thus said Jehovah concerning Shallum son of Josiah king of Judah, who is reigning instead of Josiah his father, who hath gone forth from this place: He doth not turn back hither again;
field: 24022012

12
For in the place whither they have removed him he dieth, And this land he doth not see again.

Who is saying, `I build for myself a large house, And airy upper chambers,' And he hath cut out for himself its windows, Ceiled with cedar, and painted with vermillion.

Dost thou reign, because thou art fretting thyself in cedar? Thy father -- did he not eat and drink? Yea, he did judgment and righteousness, Then `it is' well with him.

He decided the cause of the poor and needy, Then `it is' well -- is it not to know Me? An affirmation of Jehovah.

But thine eyes and thy heart are not, Except on thy dishonest gain, And on shedding of innocent blood, And on oppression, and on doing of violence.

And I do gather the remnant of My flock Out of all the lands whither I drove them, And have brought them back unto their fold, And they have been fruitful, and multiplied.

And I have raised for them shepherds, And they have fed them, And they fear no more, nor are affrighted, Nor are they lacking -- an affirmation of Jehovah.

Lo, days are coming -- an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have raised to David a righteous shoot, And a king hath reigned and acted wisely, And done judgment and righteousness in the earth.

In his days is Judah saved, and Israel dwelleth confidently, And this his name that Jehovah proclaimeth him, `Our Righteousness.'

Therefore, lo, days are coming, An affirmation of Jehovah, And they do not say any more, Jehovah liveth who brought up The sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt,

But -- Jehovah liveth, who brought up, And who brought in, the seed of the house of Israel, From the land of the north, And from all the lands whither I drove them, And they have dwelt on their own ground!

In reference to the prophets: Broken hath been my heart in my midst, Fluttered have all my bones, I have been as a man -- a drunkard, And as a man -- wine hath passed over him, Because of Jehovah, and of His holy words.

For both prophet and priest have been profane, Yea, in My house I found their wickedness, An affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 24023012
24

Therefore is their way to them as slippery places, Into thick darkness they are driven, And they have fallen in it, For I bring in against them evil, The year of their inspection, An affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 24023013

And in prophets of Samaria I have seen folly, They have prophesied by Baal, And cause my people -- Israel -- to err.
field: 24023014
24

14
And in prophets of Jerusalem I have seen a horrible thing, Committing adultery, and walking falsely, Yea, they strengthened the hands of evil doers, So that they have not turned back Each from his wickedness, They have been to me -- all of them -- as Sodom, And its inhabitants as Gomorrah.
field: 24023015

Therefore, thus said Jehovah of Hosts, concerning the prophets: Lo, I am causing them to eat wormwood, And have caused them to drink water of gall, For, from prophets of Jerusalem Hath profanity gone forth to all the land.
field: 24023016
24

Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Ye do not hearken unto the words Of the prophets who are prophesying to you, They are making you vain things, A vision of their own heart they speak, Not from the mouth of Jehovah.

I have not sent the prophets, and they have run, I have not spoken unto them, and they have prophesied.
field: 24023022

Till when is it in the heart of the prophets? The prophets of falsehood, Yea, prophets of the deceit of their heart,
field: 24023027
24

27
Who are devising to cause My people To forget My name by their dreams, That they recount each to his neighbour, As their fathers forgot my name for Baal.
field: 24023028

28
The prophet with whom `is' a dream, Let him recount the dream, And he with whom `is' My word, Let him truly speak My word. What -- to the straw with the corn? An affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 24023029

Is it not thus? My word `is' as a fire, An affirmation of Jehovah. And as a hammer -- it breaketh in pieces a rock.

Therefore, lo, I `am' against the prophets, An affirmation of Jehovah, Stealing My words each from his neighbour.

Lo, I `am' against the prophets, An affirmation of Jehovah, Who are making smooth their tongue, And they affirm -- an affirmation.

Lo, I `am' against the prophets of false dreams, An affirmation of Jehovah, And they recount them, and cause my people to err, By their falsehoods, and by their instability, And I -- I have not sent them, Nor have I commanded them, And they are not at all profitable to this people, An affirmation of Jehovah.

And when this people, or the prophet, Or a priest, doth ask thee, saying, What `is' the burden of Jehovah? Then thou hast said unto them: Ye `are' the burden, and I have left you, An affirmation of Jehovah.

34
And the prophet, and the priest, and the people, That saith, The burden of Jehovah, I have seen after that man, and after his house.
field: 24023035

23
35
Thus do ye say each unto his neighbour, And each unto his brother: What hath Jehovah answered? And what hath Jehovah spoken?
field: 24023036
24
23
36
And the burden of Jehovah ye do not mention any more, For the burden to each is -- His word, And ye have overturned the words of the living God, Jehovah of Hosts, our God.

37
Thus dost thou say unto the prophet What hath Jehovah answered thee? And what hath Jehovah spoken?

And if the burden of Jehovah ye say, Therefore thus said Jehovah: Because of your saying this word, The burden of Jehovah, And I do send unto you, saying, Ye do not say, The burden of Jehovah.

Therefore, lo, I -- I have taken you utterly away, And I have sent you out, And the city that I gave to you, And to your fathers, from before My face,

Jehovah hath shewed me, and lo, two baskets of figs, appointed before the temple of Jehovah, -- after the removing by Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, of Jeconiah, son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, and the heads of Judah, and the artizan, and the smith, from Jerusalem, when he bringeth them into Babylon --

And Jehovah saith unto me, `What art thou seeing, Jeremiah?' and I say, `Figs, the good figs `are' very good, and the bad `are' very bad, that are not eaten for badness.'

24
24

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
field: 24024005

Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Like these good figs so do I acknowledge The removed of Judah -- that I sent from this place, `To' the land of the Chaldeans -- for good.

And I have set Mine eyes on them for good, And have brought them back to this land, And built them up, and I throw not down, And have planted them, and pluck not up.
field: 24024007

And have given to them a heart to know Me, For I `am' Jehovah, And they have been to Me for a people, And I am to them for God, For they turned back unto Me with all their heart.

And like the bad figs, that are not eaten for badness, Surely thus said Jehovah: So do I make Zedekiah king of Judah, And his heads, and the remnant of Jerusalem, Who are left in this land, And who are dwelling in the land of Egypt,

In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah, hath this word been from Jehovah, saying:

`Thus said Jehovah, Stand thou in the court of the house of Jehovah, and thou hast spoken unto all `those of' the cities of Judah who are coming in to bow themselves in the house of Jehovah, all the words that I have commanded thee to speak unto them, thou dost not diminish a word.

`And thou hast said unto them: Thus said Jehovah, If ye do not hearken unto Me, to walk in My law, that I set before you,

And the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, hear Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of Jehovah,

And the priests and the prophets speak unto the heads, and unto all the people, saying, `Judgment of death `is' for this man, for he hath prophesied against this city, as ye have heard with your ears.'
field: 24026012
24

And Jeremiah speaketh unto all the heads, and unto all the people, saying, `Jehovah sent me to prophesy concerning this house, and concerning this city, all the words that ye have heard;

And certain of the elders of the land rise up, and speak unto all the assembly of the people, saying,

`Micah the Morashtite hath been prophesying in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and he saith unto all the people of Judah, saying: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Zion is a plowed field, and Jerusalem is heaps, And the mountain of the house is for high places of a forest.

`Put him at all to death did Hezekiah king of Judah, and all Judah? Did he not fear Jehovah? yea, he appeaseth the face of Jehovah, and Jehovah repenteth concerning the evil that He spake against them; and we are doing great evil against our souls.

In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah, hath this word been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,

`Thus said Jehovah unto me, Make to thee bands and yokes,

And thou hast commanded them for their lords, saying, Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel,

Thus do ye say unto your lords, I -- I have made the earth with man, and the cattle that `are' on the face of the earth, by My great power, and by My stretched-out arm, and I have given it to whom it hath been right in Mine eyes.

`And now, I -- I have given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, My servant, and also the beast of the field I have given to him to serve him;

And it hath come to pass, the nation and the kingdom that do not serve him -- Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon -- and that which putteth not its neck into the yoke of the king of Babylon, with sword, and with famine, and with pestilence, I lay a charge on that nation -- an affirmation of Jehovah -- till I consume them by his hand.

field: 24029031
24
29
31
`Send unto all the removal, saying, Thus said Jehovah concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite, Because that Shemaiah prophesied to you, and I -- I have not sent him, and he doth cause you to trust on falsehood,
field: 24029032
24
29
32
Therefore, thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am seeing after Shemaiah the Nehelamite, and after his seed, he hath none dwelling in the midst of this people, nor doth he look on the good that I am doing to My people -- an affirmation of Jehovah -- for apostacy he hath spoken against Jehovah.'
field: 24030001
24
30
1
The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
field: 24030002
24
30
2
`Thus spake Jehovah, God of Israel, saying, Write for thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee on a book.
field: 24030003
24
30
3
For, lo, days are coming -- an affirmation of Jehovah -- and I have turned back `to' the captivity of My people Israel and Judah, said Jehovah, and I have caused them to turn back unto the land that I gave to their fathers, and they do possess it.'
field: 24030004
24
30
4
And these `are' the words that Jehovah hath spoken concerning Israel and concerning Judah:
field: 24030005
24
30
5
Surely thus said Jehovah: A voice of trembling we have heard, Fear -- and there is no peace.
field: 24030006
24
30
6
Ask, I pray you, and see, is a male bringing forth? Wherefore have I seen every man, His hands on his loins, as a travailing woman, And all faces have been turned to paleness?
field: 24030007
24
30
7
Wo! for great `is' that day, without any like it, Yea, a time of adversity it `is' to Jacob, Yet out of it he is saved.
field: 24030008
24
30
8
And it hath come to pass, in that day, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, I break his yoke from off thy neck, And thy bands I draw away, And lay no more service on him do strangers.
field: 24030009
24
30
9
And they have served Jehovah their God, And David their king whom I raise up to them.
field: 24030010
24
30
10
And thou, be not afraid, My servant Jacob, An affirmation of Jehovah, Nor be affrighted, O Israel, For, lo, I am saving thee from afar, And thy seed from the land of their captivity, And Jacob hath turned back and rested, And is quiet, and there is none troubling.
field: 24030011
24
30
11
For with thee `am' I, An affirmation of Jehovah -- to save thee, For I make an end of all the nations Whither I have scattered thee, Only, of thee I do not make an end, And I have chastised thee in judgment, And do not entirely acquit thee.
field: 24030012
24
30
12
For thus said Jehovah: Incurable is thy breach, grievous thy stroke,
field: 24030013
24
30
13
There is none judging thy cause to bind up, Healing medicines there are none for thee.
field: 24030014
24
30
14
all loving thee have forgotten thee, Thee they do not seek, For with the stroke of an enemy I smote thee, The chastisement of a fierce one, Because of the abundance of thy iniquity, Mighty have been thy sins!
field: 24030015
24
30
15
What! -- thou criest concerning thy breach! Incurable `is' thy pain, Because of the abundance of thy iniquity, Mighty have been thy sins! I have done these to thee.
field: 24030016
24
30
16
Therefore all consuming thee are consumed, And all thine adversaries -- all of them -- Into captivity do go, And thy spoilers have been for a spoil, And all thy plunderers I give up to plunder.
field: 24030017
24
30
17
For I increase health to thee, And from thy strokes I do heal thee, An affirmation of Jehovah, For `Outcast' they have called to thee, `Zion it `is', there is none seeking for her.'
field: 24030018
24
30
18
Thus said Jehovah: Lo, I turn back `to' the captivity of the tents of Jacob, And his dwelling places I pity, And the city hath been built on its heap, And the palace according to its ordinance remaineth.
field: 24030019
24
30
19
And gone forth from them hath thanksgiving, And the voice of playful ones, And I have multiplied them and they are not few, And made them honourable, and they are not small.
field: 24030020
24
30
20
And his sons have been as aforetime, And his company before Me is established, And I have seen after all his oppressors.
field: 24030021
24
30
21
And his honourable one hath been of himself, And his ruler from his midst goeth forth, And I have caused him to draw near, And he hath drawn nigh unto Me, For who `is' he who hath pledged his heart To draw nigh unto Me? An affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 24030022
24
30
22
And ye have been to Me for a people, And I am to you for God.
field: 24030023
24
30
23
Lo, a whirlwind of Jehovah -- Fury hath gone forth -- a cutting whirlwind, On the head of the wicked it stayeth.
field: 24030024
24
30
24
The fierceness of the anger of Jehovah Doth not turn back till His doing, Yea, till His establishing the devices of His heart, In the latter end of the days we consider it!
field: 24031001
24
31
1
At that time, an affirmation of Jehovah, I am for God to all families of Israel, And they -- they are to Me for a people.
field: 24031002
24
31
2
Thus said Jehovah: Found grace in the wilderness Hath a people remaining from the sword Going to cause it to rest -- Israel.
field: 24031003
24
31
3
From afar Jehovah hath appeared to me, With love age-during I have loved thee, Therefore I have drawn thee `with' kindness.
field: 24031004
24
31
4
Again do I build thee, And thou hast been built, O virgin of Israel, Again thou puttest on thy tabrets, And hast gone out in the chorus of the playful.
field: 24031005
24
31
5
Again thou dost plant vineyards In mountains of Samaria, Planters have planted, and made common.
field: 24031006
24
31
6
For there is a day, Cried have watchmen on mount Ephraim, `Rise, and we go up to Zion, unto Jehovah our God;
field: 24031007
24
31
7
For thus said Jehovah: Sing, O ye to Jacob, `with' joy, And cry aloud at the head of the nations, Sound ye, praise ye, and say, Save, O Jehovah, thy people, the remnant of Israel.
field: 24031008
24
31
8
Lo, I am bringing them in from the north country, And have gathered them from the sides of the earth, Among them `are' blind and lame, Conceiving and travailing one -- together, A great assembly -- they turn back hither.
field: 24031009
24
31
9
With weeping they come in, And with supplications I bring them, I cause them to go unto streams of waters, In a right way -- they stumble not in it, For I have been to Israel for a father, And Ephraim -- My first-born `is' he.
field: 24031010
24
31
10
Hear a word of Jehovah, O nations, And declare ye among isles afar off, and say: He who is scattering Israel doth gather him, And hath kept him as a shepherd `doth' his flock,
field: 24031011
24
31
11
For Jehovah hath ransomed Jacob, And redeemed him from a hand stronger than he.
field: 24031012
24
31
12
And they have come in, And have sung in the high place of Zion, And flowed unto the goodness of Jehovah, For wheat, and for new wine, and for oil, And for the young of the flock and herd, And their soul hath been as a watered garden, And they add not to grieve any more.
field: 24031013
24
31
13
Then rejoice doth a virgin in a chorus, Both young men and old men -- together, And I have turned their mourning to joy, And have comforted them, And gladdened them above their sorrow,
field: 24031014
24
31
14
And satisfied the soul of the priests `with' fatness, And My people with My goodness are satisfied, An affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 24031015
24
31
15
Thus said Jehovah, A voice in Ramah is heard, wailing, weeping most bitter, Rachel is weeping for her sons, She hath refused to be comforted for her sons, because they are not.
field: 24031016
24
31
16
Thus said Jehovah: Withhold thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears, For there is a reward for thy work, An affirmation of Jehovah, And they have turned back from the land of the enemy.
field: 24031017
24
31
17
And there is hope for thy latter end, An affirmation of Jehovah, And the sons have turned back `to' their border.
field: 24031018
24
31
18
I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself, `Thou hast chastised me, And I am chastised, as a heifer not taught, Turn me back, and I turn back, For thou `art' Jehovah my God.
field: 24031019
24
31
19
For after my turning back I repented, And after my being instructed I struck on the thigh, I have been ashamed, I have also blushed, For I have borne the reproach of my youth.
field: 24031020
24
31
20
A precious son is Ephraim to Me? A child of delights? For since My speaking against him, I do thoroughly remember him still, Therefore have My bowels been moved for him, I do greatly love him, An affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 24031021
24
31
21
Set up for thee signs, make for thee heaps, Set thy heart to the highway, the way thou wentest, Turn back, O virgin of Israel, Turn back unto these thy cities.
field: 24031022
24
31
22
Till when dost thou withdraw thyself, O backsliding daughter? For Jehovah hath prepared a new thing in the land, Woman doth compass man.
field: 24031023
24
31
23
Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Still they say this word in the land of Judah, And in its cities, In My turning back `to' their captivity, Jehovah doth bless thee, habitation of righteousness, Mountain of holiness.
field: 24031024
24
31
24
And dwelt in Judah have husbandmen, and in all its cities together, And they have journeyed in order.
field: 24031025
24
31
25
For I have satiated the weary soul, And every grieved soul I have filled.'
field: 24031026
24
31
26
On this I have awaked, and I behold, and my sleep hath been sweet to me.
field: 24031027
24
31
27
Lo, days are coming, an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have sown the house of Israel, And the house of Judah, With seed of man, and seed of beast.
field: 24031028
24
31
28
And it hath been, as I watched over them to pluck up, And to break down, and to throw down, And to destroy, and to afflict; So do I watch over them to build, and to plant, An affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 24031029
24
31
29
In those days they do not say any more: Fathers have eaten unripe fruit, And the sons' teeth are blunted.
field: 24031030
24
31
30
But -- each for his own iniquity doth die, Every man who is eating the unripe fruit, Blunted are his teeth.
field: 24031031
24
31
31
Lo, days are coming, an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have made with the house of Israel And with the house of Judah a new covenant,
field: 24031032
24
31
32
Not like the covenant that I made with their fathers, In the day of My laying hold on their hand, To bring them out of the land of Egypt, In that they made void My covenant, And I ruled over them -- an affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 24031033
24
31
33
For this `is' the covenant that I make, With the house of Israel, after those days, An affirmation of Jehovah, I have given My law in their inward part, And on their heart I do write it, And I have been to them for God, And they are to me for a people.
field: 24031034
24
31
34
And they do not teach any more Each his neighbour, and each his brother, Saying, Know ye Jehovah, For they all know Me, from their least unto their greatest, An affirmation of Jehovah; For I pardon their iniquity, And of their sin I make mention no more.
field: 24031035
24
31
35
Thus said Jehovah, Who is giving the sun for a light by day, The statutes of moon and stars for a light by night, Quieting the sea when its billows roar, Jehovah of Hosts `is' His name:
field: 24031036
24
31
36
If these statutes depart from before Me, An affirmation of Jehovah, Even the seed of Israel doth cease From being a nation before Me all the days.
field: 24031037
24
31
37
Thus said Jehovah: If the heavens above be measured, And the foundations of earth below searched, Even I kick against all the seed of Israel, For all that they have done, An affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 24031038
24
31
38
Lo, days `are coming', an affirmation of Jehovah, And the city hath been built to Jehovah, From the tower of Hananeel to the gate of the corner.
field: 24031039
24
31
39
And gone out again hath the measuring line Over-against it, unto the height of Gareb, And it hath compassed to Goah.
field: 24031040
24
31
40
And all the valley of the carcases and of the ashes, And all the fields unto the brook Kidron, Unto the corner of the horse-gate eastward, `Are' holy to Jehovah, it is not plucked up, Nor is it thrown down any more to the age!

The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah -- it `is' the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar,
field: 24032002
24
32
2
And then the forces of the king of Babylon are laying siege against Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet hath been shut up in the court of the prison that `is' in the house of the king of Judah,
field: 24032003
24
32
3
Where Zedekiah king of Judah hath shut him up, saying, `Wherefore art thou prophesying, saying, Thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he hath captured it;
field: 24032004
24
32
4
And Zedekiah king of Judah doth not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but is certainly given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and his mouth hath spoken with his mouth, and his eyes see his eyes,
field: 24032005
24
32
5
And `to' Babylon he leadeth Zedekiah, and there he is till My inspecting him, -- an affirmation of Jehovah -- because ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye do not prosper.'
field: 24032006
24
32
6
And Jeremiah saith, `A word of Jehovah hath been unto me saying,
field: 24032007
24
32
7
Lo, Hanameel son of Shallum, thine uncle, is coming unto thee, saying, Buy for thee my field that `is' in Anathoth, for thine `is' the right of redemption -- to buy.
field: 24032008
24
32
8
And Hanameel, my uncle's son, cometh in unto me, according to the word of Jehovah, unto the court of the prison, and saith unto me, `Buy, I pray thee, my field that `is' in Anathoth, that `is' in the land of Benjamin, for thine `is' the right of possession, and thine of redemption -- buy for thee.' And I know that it `is' the word of Jehovah,
field: 24032009
24
32
9
And I buy the field, that `is' in Anathoth, from Hanameel, my uncle's son, and I weigh to him the money -- seventeen shekels of silver.
field: 24032010
24
32
10
And I write in a book, and seal, and cause witnesses to testify, and weigh the silver in balances;
field: 24032011
24
32
11
And I take the purchase-book, the sealed one, according to law and custom, and the open one.
field: 24032012
24
32
12
And I give the purchase-book unto Baruch son of Neriah, son of Maaseiah, before the eyes of Hanameel, my uncle's son, and before the eyes of the witnesses, those writing in the purchase-book, before the eyes of all the Jews who are sitting in the court of the prison.
field: 24032013
24
32
13
And I charge Baruch before their eyes, saying,
field: 24032014
24
32
14
`Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Take these books, this purchase-book, both the sealed one and the open one, and thou hast put them in an earthen vessel, that they may remain many days;
field: 24032015
24
32
15
For thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Again are houses and fields and vineyards bought in this land.'
field: 24032016
24
32
16
And I pray unto Jehovah -- after my giving the purchase-book unto Baruch son of Neriah -- saying,
field: 24032017
24
32
17
`Ah, Lord Jehovah, lo, Thou hast made the heavens and the earth by Thy great power, and by Thy stretched-out arm; there is nothing too wonderful for Thee:
field: 24032018
24
32
18
Doing kindness to thousands, and recompensing iniquity of fathers into the bosom of their sons after them; God, the great, the mighty, Jehovah of Hosts `is' His name,
field: 24032019
24
32
19
Great in counsel, and mighty in act, in that Thine eyes are open on all the ways of the sons of Adam, to give to each according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings:
field: 24032020
24
32
20
In that thou hast done signs and wonders in the land of Egypt unto this day, and in Israel, and among men, and Thou dost make for Thee a name as `at' this day.
field: 24032021
24
32
21
`And Thou bringest forth Thy people Israel from the land of Egypt, with signs and with wonders, and by a strong hand, and by a stretched-out arm, and by great fear,
field: 24032022
24
32
22
And thou givest to them this land that thou didst swear to their fathers to give to them, a land flowing with milk and honey,
field: 24032023
24
32
23
And they come in, and possess it, and they have not hearkened to Thy voice, and in Thy law have not walked, all that which Thou didst lay a charge on them to do they have not done, and Thou dost proclaim `to' them all this evil.
field: 24032024
24
32
24
`Lo, the mounts -- they have come in to the city to capture it, and the city hath been given into the hand of the Chaldeans who are fighting against it, because of the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence; and that which Thou hast spoken hath come to pass, and lo, Thou art seeing;
field: 24032025
24
32
25
Yet Thou hast said unto me, O Lord Jehovah, Buy for thee the field with money, and cause witnesses to testify -- and the city hath been given into the hand of the Chaldeans!'
field: 24032026
24
32
26
And the word of Jehovah is unto Jeremiah, saying:
field: 24032027
24
32
27
`Lo, I `am' Jehovah, God of all flesh: For Me is anything too wonderful?
field: 24032028
24
32
28
`Therefore, thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am giving this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and he hath captured it;
field: 24032029
24
32
29
And come in have the Chaldeans who are fighting against this city, and they have set this city on fire, and have burned it, and the houses on whose roofs they made perfume to Baal, and poured out libations to other gods, so as to provoke Me to anger.
field: 24032030
24
32
30
For the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah have been only doing evil in Mine eyes, from their youth; for the sons of Israel are only provoking Me with the work of their hands -- an affirmation of Jehovah.
field: 24032031
24
32
31
`For a cause of Mine anger, and a cause of My fury, hath this city been to Me, even from the day that they built it, and unto this day -- to turn it aside from before My face,
field: 24032032
24
32
32
Because of all the evil of the sons of Israel, and of the sons of Judah that they have done, so as to provoke Me -- they, their kings, their heads, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
field: 24032033
24
32
33
And they turn unto Me the neck, and not the face, and teaching them, rising early and teaching, and they are not hearkening to accept instruction.
field: 24032034
24
32
34
`And they set their abominations in the house over which My name is called, so as to defile it;
field: 24032035
24
32
35
And they build the high places of Baal, that `are' in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through to Molech, which I did not command them, nor did it come up on my heart to do this abomination, so as to cause Judah to sin.
field: 24032036
24
32
36
`And now, therefore, thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, concerning this city, of which ye are saying, It hath been given into the hand of the king of Babylon by sword, and by famine, and by pestilence,
field: 24032037
24
32
37
Lo, I am gathering them out of all the lands whither I have driven them in Mine anger, and in My fury, and in great wrath, and I have brought them back unto this place, and have caused them to dwell confidently;
field: 24032038
24
32
38
and they have been to Me for a people, and I am to them for God;
field: 24032039
24
32
39
and I have given to them one heart, and one way, to fear Me all the days, for good to them, and to their sons after them:
field: 24032040
24
32
40
and I have made for them a covenant age-during, in that I turn not back from after them for My doing them good, and My fear I put in their heart, so as not to turn aside from me;
field: 24032041
24
32
41
and I have rejoiced over them to do them good, and have planted them in this land in truth, with all my heart, and with all My soul.
field: 24032042
24
32
42
`For thus said Jehovah: As I brought in unto this people all this great evil, so I am bringing in on them all the good that I am speaking concerning them;
field: 24032043
24
32
43
and bought hath been the field in this land of which ye are saying, A desolation it `is', without man and beast, it hath been given into the hand of the Chaldeans.
field: 24032044
24
32
44
Fields with money they buy, so as to write in a book, and to seal, and to cause witnesses to testify, in the land of Benjamin, and in suburbs of Jerusalem, and in cities of Judah, and in cities of the hill-country, and in cities of the low country, and in cities of the south, for I turn back their captivity -- an affirmation of Jehovah.'
field: 24033001
24
33
1
And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah a second time -- and he `is' yet detained in the court of the prison -- saying:
field: 24033002
24
33
2
Thus said Jehovah its maker, Jehovah its former, at establishing it, Jehovah `is' His name:
field: 24033003
24
33
3
Call unto Me, and I do answer thee, yea, I declare to thee great and fenced things -- thou hast not known them.
field: 24033004
24
33
4
For thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, that are broken down for the mounts, and for the tool;
field: 24033005
24
33
5
they are coming in to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the carcases of men, whom I have smitten in Mine anger, and in My fury, and `for' whom I have hidden My face from this city, because of all their evil:
field: 24033006
24
33
6
Lo, I am increasing to it health and cure, And have healed them, and revealed to them The abundance of peace and truth.
field: 24033007
24
33
7
And I have turned back the captivity of Judah, And the captivity of Israel, And I have built them as at the first,
field: 24033008
24
33
8
And cleansed them from all their iniquity, That they have sinned against Me, And I have pardoned all their iniquities, That they have sinned against Me, And that they transgressed against Me.
field: 24033009
24
33
9
And it hath been to Me for a name of joy, For praise, and for beauty, to all nations of the earth, Who hear of all the good that I am doing them, And they have feared, And they have trembled for all the good, And for all the peace, that I am doing to it.

Thus said Jehovah: Again heard in this place of which ye are saying, Waste it `is', without man and without beast, In cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem, That are desolated, without man, And without inhabitant, and without beast,
field: 24033011
24
33
11
Is a voice of joy and a voice of gladness, Voice of bridegroom, and voice of bride, The voice of those saying, Thank Jehovah of Hosts, for Jehovah `is' good, For His kindness `is' to the age, Who are bringing in thanksgiving to the house of Jehovah, For I turn back the captivity of the land, As at the first, said Jehovah.

13
In the cities of the hill-country, In the cities of the low country, And in the cities of the south, And in the land of Benjamin, And in the suburbs of Jerusalem, And in the cities of Judah, Again doth the flock pass by under the hands of the numberer, said Jehovah.

Lo, days are coming, an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have established the good word That I spake unto the house of Israel, And concerning the house of Judah.
field: 24033015
24

15
In those days, and at that time, I cause to shoot up to David a shoot of righteousness, And he hath done judgment and righteousness in the earth.
field: 24033016
24

16
In those days is Judah saved, And Jerusalem doth dwell confidently, And this `is' he whom Jehovah proclaimeth to her: `Our Righteousness.'

For thus said Jehovah: `Not cut off to David is one sitting on the throne of the house of Israel,

And to the priests -- the Levites, Not cut off from before Me is one, Causing a burnt-offering to ascend, And perfuming a present, and making sacrifice -- all the days.'

And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah, saying,

`Thus said Jehovah: If ye do break My covenant of the day, And My covenant of the night, So that they are not daily and nightly in their season,
field: 24033021
24
33
21
Also My covenant is broken with David My servant, So that he hath not a son reigning on his throne, And with the Levites the priests, My ministers.
field: 24033022
24
33
22
As the host of the heavens is not numbered, Nor the sand of the sea measured, So I multiply the seed of David My servant, And the Levites My ministers.'

And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah, saying:

`Hast thou not considered what this people have spoken, saying: The two families on which Jehovah fixed, He doth reject them, And my people they despise -- So that they are no more a people before them!
field: 24033025
24
33
25
Thus said Jehovah: If My covenant `is' not daily and nightly, The statutes of heaven and earth I have not appointed --
field: 24033026
24
33
26
Also the seed of Jacob, and David My servant, I reject, Against taking from his seed rulers For the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, For I turn back `to' their captivity, and have pitied them.'

`Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel: Go, and thou hast spoken unto Zedekiah king of Judah, and hast said unto him, Thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he hath burned it with fire,

10
and hearken do all the heads, and all the people who have come in to the covenant to send forth each his man-servant and each his maid-servant free, so as not to lay service on them any more, yea, they hearken, and send them away;
field: 24034011
24

And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying:

`Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, I -- I made a covenant with your fathers in the day of My bringing them forth from the land of Egypt, from a house of servants, saying,

24
34
14
At the end of seven years ye do send forth each his brother, the Hebrew, who is sold to thee, and hath served thee six years, yea, thou hast sent him forth free from thee: and your fathers hearkened not unto Me, nor inclined their ear.

15
`And ye turn back, ye to-day, and ye do that which is right in Mine eyes, to proclaim liberty each to his neighbour, and ye make a covenant before Me in the house over which My name is called.

16
And -- ye turn back, and pollute My name, and ye cause each his man-servant and each his maid-servant, whom he had sent forth free, (at their pleasure,) to return, and ye subdue them to be to you for men-servants and for maid-servants.

`Therefore, thus said Jehovah: Ye have not hearkened unto Me to proclaim freedom, each to his brother, and each to his neighbour; lo, I am proclaiming to you liberty -- an affirmation of Jehovah -- unto the sword, unto the pestilence, and unto the famine, and I have given you for a trembling to all kingdoms of the earth.

and bring them into the house of Jehovah, unto the chamber of the sons of Hanan son of Igdaliah, a man of God, that `is' near to the chamber of the princes, that `is' above the chamber of Maaseiah son of Shallum, keeper of the threshold;

and I put before the sons of the house of the Rechabites goblets full of wine, and cups, and I say unto them, Drink ye wine.
field: 24035006
24
35
6
And they say, `We do not drink wine: for Jonadab son of Rechab, our father, charged us, saying, Ye do not drink wine, ye and your sons -- unto the age;

24
35

and a house ye do not build, and seed ye do not sow, and a vineyard ye do not plant, nor have ye any; for in tents do ye dwell all your days, that ye may live many days on the face of the ground whither ye are sojourning.

`And we hearken to the voice of Jonadab son of Rechab, our father, to all that he commanded us, not to drink wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, and our daughters;

35
9
nor to build houses for our dwelling; and vineyard, and field, and seed, we have none;

10
and we dwell in tents, and we hearken, and we do according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us;

and it cometh to pass, in the coming up of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon unto the land, that we say, Come, and we enter Jerusalem, because of the force of the Chaldeans, and because of the force of Aram -- and we dwell in Jerusalem.'

And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah, saying: `Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel:

And I send unto you all My servants the prophets, rising early and sending, saying: Turn back, I pray you, each from his evil way, and amend your doings, yea, ye do not walk after other gods, to serve them, and dwell ye on the ground that I have given to you and to your fathers; and ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto Me.

therefore thus said Jehovah, God of Hosts, God of Israel: Lo, I am bringing in unto Judah, and unto all inhabitants of Jerusalem, all the evil that I have spoken against them, because I have spoken unto them, and they have not hearkened, yea, I call to them, and they have not answered.'

but thou hast entered -- and thou hast read in the roll that thou hast written from my mouth, the words of Jehovah, in the ears of the people, in the house of Jehovah, in the day of the fast, and also in the ears of all Judah who are coming in from their cities thou dost read them;

`Turn, take to thee another roll, and write on it all the former words that were on the first roll, that Jehoiakim king of Judah burnt,

`Thus said Jehovah: He who is remaining in this city dieth, by sword, by famine, and by pestilence, and he who is going forth unto the Chaldeans liveth, and his soul hath been to him for a prey, and he liveth.

Thus said Jehovah: This city is certainly given into the hand of the force of the king of Babylon, and he hath captured it.'

And the heads say unto the king, `Let, we pray thee, this man be put to death, because that he is making feeble the hands of the men of war, who are left in this city, and the hands of all the people, by speaking unto them according to these words, for this man is not seeking for the peace of this people, but for its evil.'

And the king Zedekiah saith, `Lo, he `is' in your hand: for the king is not able for you `in' anything.'

And they take Jeremiah, and cast him into the pit of Malchiah son of the king, that `is' in the court of the prison, and they send down Jeremiah with cords; and in the pit there is no water, but mire, and Jeremiah sinketh in the mire.

and Ebed-Melech goeth forth from the king's house, and speaketh unto the king, saying,

24

`My lord, O king, these men have done evil `in' all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the pit, and he dieth in his place because of the famine, for there is no more bread in the city.'
field: 24038010

And the king commandeth Ebed-Melech the Cushite, saying, `Take with thee from this thirty men, and thou hast brought up Jeremiah the prophet from the pit, before he dieth.'
field: 24038011
24
38
11
And Ebed-Melech taketh the men with him, and entereth the house of the king, unto the place of the treasury, and taketh thence worn-out clouts, and worn-out rags, and sendeth them unto Jeremiah unto the pit by cords.
field: 24038012
24
38
12
And Ebed-Melech the Cushite saith unto Jeremiah, `Put, I pray thee, the worn-out clouts and rags under thine arm-holes, at the place of the cords,' and Jeremiah doth so,

24

and they draw out Jeremiah with cords, and bring him up out of the pit, and Jeremiah dwelleth in the court of the prison.

And the king Zedekiah sendeth, and taketh Jeremiah the prophet unto him, unto the third entrance that `is' in the house of Jehovah, and the king saith unto Jeremiah, `I am asking thee a thing, do not hide from me anything.'

And Jeremiah saith unto Zedekiah, `When I declare to thee, dost thou not surely put me to death? and when I counsel thee, thou dost not hearken unto me.'
field: 24038016
24
38
16
And the king Zedekiah sweareth unto Jeremiah in secret, saying, `Jehovah liveth, He who made for us this soul, I do not put thee to death, nor give thee unto the hand of these men who are seeking thy soul.'
field: 24038017
24
38
17
And Jeremiah saith unto Zedekiah, `Thus said Jehovah, God of Hosts, God of Israel: If thou dost certainly go forth unto the heads of the king of Babylon, then hath thy soul lived, and this city is not burned with fire, yea, thou hast lived, thou and thy house.

And if thou dost not go forth unto the heads of the king of Babylon, then hath this city been given into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they have burnt it with fire, and thou dost not escape from their hand.'

And Jeremiah saith, `They do not give thee up; hearken, I pray thee, to the voice of Jehovah, to that which I am speaking unto thee, and it is well for thee, and thy soul doth live.

`And if thou art refusing to go forth, this `is' the thing that Jehovah hath shewn me:

That, lo, all the women who have been left in the house of the king of Judah are brought forth unto the heads of the king of Babylon, and lo, they are saying: Persuaded thee, and prevailed against thee, Have thine allies, Sunk into mire have thy feet, They have been turned backward.

And Zedekiah saith unto Jeremiah, `Let no man know of these words, and thou dost not die;

24
38
25
and when the heads hear that I have spoken with thee, and they have come in unto thee, and have said unto thee, Declare to us, we pray thee, what thou didst speak unto the king, do not hide `it' from us, and we do not put thee to death, and what the king spake unto thee,

And all the heads come in unto Jeremiah, and ask him, and he declareth to them according to all these words that the king commanded, and they keep silent from him, for the matter was not heard;

And it cometh to pass, when Zedekiah king of Judah, and all the men of war, have seen them, that they flee and go forth by night from the city, the way of the king's garden, through the gate between the two walls, and he goeth forth the way of the plain.

And the forces of the Chaldeans pursue after them, and overtake Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho, and they take him, and bring him up unto Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, to Riblah, in the land of Hamath, and he speaketh with him -- judgments.

`Take him, and place thine eyes upon him, and do no evil thing to him, but as he speaketh unto thee, so do with him.'

`Go, and thou hast spoken to Ebed-Melech the Cushite, saying: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: Lo, I am bringing in My words unto this city for evil, and not for good, and they have been before thee in that day.

And I have delivered thee in that day -- an affirmation of Jehovah -- and thou art not given into the hand of the men of whose face thou art afraid,

And the chief of the executioners giveth to him for the way, and a gift, and sendeth him away,

And all the heads of the forces that `are' in the field hear, they and their men, that the king of Babylon hath appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam over the land, and that he hath charged him `with' men, and women, and infants, and of the poor of the land, of those who have not been removed to Babylon;

And ten men have been found among them, and they say unto Ishmael, `Do not put us to death, for we have things hidden in the field -- wheat, and barley, and oil, and honey.' And he forbeareth, and hath not put them to death in the midst of their brethren.

`If ye do certainly dwell in this land, then I have builded you up, and I throw not down; and I have planted you, and I pluck not up; for I have repented concerning the evil that I have done to you.

And now, therefore, hear ye a word of Jehovah, O remnant of Judah: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: If ye really set your faces to enter Egypt, and have gone in to sojourn there,

16
then it hath come to pass, the sword that ye are afraid of, doth there overtake you, in the land of Egypt; and the hunger, because of which ye are sorrowful, doth there cleave after you in Egypt, and there ye die.

`Thus are all the men who have set their faces to enter Egypt to sojourn there; they die -- by sword, by hunger, and by pestilence, and there is not to them a remnant and an escaped one, because of the evil that I am bringing in upon them;

18
for thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: As poured out hath been Mine anger and My fury on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so poured out is My fury upon you in your entering Egypt, and ye have been for an execration, and for an astonishment, and for a reviling, and for a reproach, and ye do not see any more this place.

`Jehovah hath spoken against you, O remnant of Judah, do not enter Egypt: know certainly that I have testified against you to-day;

20
for ye have shewed yourselves perverse in your souls, for ye sent me unto Jehovah your God, saying, Pray for us unto Jehovah our God, and according to all that Jehovah our God saith, so declare to us, and we have done `it';

Runner to meet runner doth run, And announcer to meet announcer, To announce to the king of Babylon, For, captured hath been his city -- at the extremity.

And the passages have been captured, And the reeds they have burnt with fire, And the men of war have been troubled.

For thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, The daughter of Babylon `is' as a threshing-floor, The time of her threshing -- yet a little, And come hath the time of her harvest.

Devoured us, crushed us, hath Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, He hath set us `as' an empty vessel, He hath swallowed us as a dragon, He hath filled his belly with my dainties, He hath driven us away.

Therefore, thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am pleading thy cause, And I have avenged thy vengeance, And dried up its sea, and made its fountains dry.
field: 24051037

And Babylon hath been for heaps, A habitation of dragons, An astonishment, and a hissing, without inhabitant.

I cause them to go down as lambs to slaughter, As rams with he-goats.

Come up against Babylon hath the sea, With a multitude of its billows it hath been covered.
field: 24051043

Its cities have been for a desolation, A dry land, and a wilderness, A land -- none doth dwell in them, Nor pass over into them doth a son of man.
field: 24051044
24

Therefore, lo, days are coming, And I have seen after the graven images of Babylon. And all its land is ashamed, And all its pierced ones do fall in its midst.

We have been ashamed, for we heard reproach, Covered hath shame our faces, For come in have strangers, against the sanctuaries of the house of Jehovah.

Therefore, lo, days are coming, An affirmation of Jehovah, And I have seen after its graven images, And in all its land groan doth the wounded.

Because Babylon goeth up to the heavens, And because it fenceth the high place of its strength, From Me come into it do spoilers, An affirmation of Jehovah.

A voice of a cry `is' from Babylon, And of great destruction from the land of the Chaldean.

For Jehovah is spoiling Babylon, And hath destroyed out of it a great voice, And sounded have its billows as many waters, Given forth a noise hath their voice.
field: 24051056

56
For come in against it -- against Babylon -- hath a spoiler, And captured have been its mighty ones, Broken have been their bows, For the God of recompences -- Jehovah -- doth certainly repay.

and Jeremiah writeth all the evil that cometh unto Babylon on one book -- all these words that are written concerning Babylon.

And Jeremiah saith unto Seraiah, `When thou dost enter Babylon, then thou hast seen, and hast read all these words,

and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that Jehoiakim hath done,

for, because of the anger of Jehovah, it hath been in Jerusalem and Judah till He hath cast them from before His face, and Zedekiah doth rebel against the king of Babylon.

In the fourth month, in the ninth of the month, when the famine is severe in the city, and there hath been no bread for the people of the land,

then is the city broken up, and all the men of war flee, and go forth from the city by night, the way of the gate between the two walls, that `is' by the king's garden -- and the Chaldeans `are' by the city round about -- and they go the way of the plain.
field: 24052008
24

And the forces of the Chaldeans pursue after the king, and overtake Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho, and all his forces have been scattered from him,
field: 24052009
24
52

and they capture the king, and bring him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah, in the land of Hamath, and he speaketh with him -- judgments.
field: 24052010

And the king of Babylon slaughtereth the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and also all the princes of Judah hath he slaughtered in Riblah;

and the eyes of Zedekiah he hath blinded, and he bindeth him in brazen fetters, and the king of Babylon bringeth him to Babylon, and putteth him in the house of inspection unto the day of his death.

And in the fifth month, in the tenth of the month -- it `is' the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon -- come hath Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners; he hath stood before the king of Babylon in Jerusalem,

And the chief of the executioners taketh Seraiah the head priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold,

and out of the city he hath taken a certain eunuch, who hath been inspector over the men of war, and seven men of those seeing the king's face, who have been found in the city, and the head scribe of the host, who mustereth the people of the land, and sixty men of the people of the land, who are found in the midst of the city;

field: 25003008
25

8
Also when I call and cry out, He hath shut out my prayer.
field: 25003009
25
3
9
He hath hedged my ways with hewn work, My paths He hath made crooked.
field: 25003010
25
3
10
A bear lying in wait He `is' to me, A lion in secret hiding-places.
field: 25003011
25
3
11
My ways He is turning aside, and He pulleth me in pieces, He hath made me a desolation.
field: 25003012
25
3
12
He hath trodden His bow, And setteth me up as a mark for an arrow.
field: 25003013
25
3
13
He hath caused to enter into my reins The sons of His quiver.
field: 25003014
25
3
14
I have been a derision to all my people, Their song all the day.
field: 25003015
25
3
15
He hath filled me with bitter things, He hath filled me `with' wormwood.
field: 25003016
25
3
16
And He breaketh with gravel my teeth, He hath covered me with ashes.
field: 25003017
25
3
17
And Thou castest off from peace my soul, I have forgotten prosperity.
field: 25003018
25
3
18
And I say, Perished hath my strength and my hope from Jehovah.
field: 25003019
25
3
19
Remember my affliction and my mourning, Wormwood and gall!
field: 25003020
25
3
20
Remember well, and bow down doth my soul in me.
field: 25003021
25
3
21
This I turn to my heart -- therefore I hope.
field: 25003022
25
3
22
The kindnesses of Jehovah! For we have not been consumed, For not ended have His mercies.
field: 25003023
25
3
23
New every morning, abundant `is' thy faithfulness.
field: 25003024
25
3
24
My portion `is' Jehovah, hath my soul said, Therefore I hope for Him.
field: 25003025
25
3
25
Good `is' Jehovah to those waiting for Him, To the soul `that' seeketh Him.
field: 25003026
25
3
26
Good! when one doth stay and stand still For the salvation of Jehovah.
field: 25003027
25
3
27
Good for a man that he beareth a yoke in his youth.
field: 25003028
25
3
28
He sitteth alone, and is silent, For He hath laid `it' upon him.
field: 25003029
25
3
29
He putteth in the dust his mouth, if so be there is hope.
field: 25003030
25
3
30
He giveth to his smiter the cheek, He is filled with reproach.
field: 25003031
25
3
31
For the Lord doth not cast off to the age.
field: 25003032
25
3
32
For though He afflicted, yet He hath pitied, According to the abundance of His kindness.
field: 25003033
25
3
33
For He hath not afflicted with His heart, Nor doth He grieve the sons of men.
field: 25003034
25
3
34
To bruise under one's feet any bound ones of earth,
field: 25003035
25
3
35
To turn aside the judgment of a man, Over-against the face of the Most High,
field: 25003036
25
3
36
To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord hath not approved.
field: 25003037
25
3
37
Who `is' this -- he hath said, and it is, `And' the Lord hath not commanded `it'?
field: 25003038
25
3
38
From the mouth of the Most High Go not forth the evils and the good.
field: 25003039
25
3
39
What -- sigh habitually doth a living man, A man for his sin?
field: 25003040
25
3
40
We search our ways, and investigate, And turn back unto Jehovah.
field: 25003041
25
3
41
We lift up our heart on the hands unto God in the heavens.
field: 25003042
25
3
42
We -- we have transgressed and rebelled, Thou -- Thou hast not forgiven.
field: 25003043
25
3
43
Thou hast covered Thyself with anger, And dost pursue us; Thou hast slain -- Thou hast not pitied.
field: 25003044
25
3
44
Thou hast covered Thyself with a cloud, So that prayer doth not pass through.
field: 25003045
25
3
45
Offscouring and refuse Thou dost make us In the midst of the peoples.
field: 25003046
25
3
46
Opened against us their mouth have all our enemies.
field: 25003047
25
3
47
Fear and a snare hath been for us, Desolation and destruction.
field: 25003048
25
3
48
Rivulets of water go down my eye, For the destruction of the daughter of my people.
field: 25003049
25
3
49
Mine eye is poured out, And doth not cease without intermission,
field: 25003050
25
3
50
Till Jehovah looketh and seeth from the heavens,
field: 25003051
25
3
51
My eye affecteth my soul, Because of all the daughters of my city.
field: 25003052
25
3
52
Hunted me sore as a bird have my enemies without cause.
field: 25003053
25
3
53
They have cut off in a pit my life, And they cast a stone against me.
field: 25003054
25
3
54
Flowed have waters over my head, I have said, I have been cut off.
field: 25003055
25
3
55
I called Thy name, O Jehovah, from the lower pit.
field: 25003056
25
3
56
My voice Thou hast heard, Hide not Thine ear at my breathing -- at my cry.
field: 25003057
25
3
57
Thou hast drawn near in the day I call Thee, Thou hast said, Fear not.
field: 25003058
25
3
58
Thou hast pleaded, O Lord, the pleadings of my soul, Thou hast redeemed my life.
field: 25003059
25
3
59
Thou hast seen, O Jehovah, my overthrow, Judge Thou my cause.
field: 25003060
25
3
60
Thou hast seen all their vengeance, All their thoughts of me.
field: 25003061
25
3
61
Thou hast heard their reproach, O Jehovah, All their thoughts against me,
field: 25003062
25
3
62
The lips of my withstanders, Even their meditation against me all the day.
field: 25003063
25
3
63
Their sitting down, and their rising up, Behold attentively, I `am' their song.
field: 25003064
25
3
64
Thou returnest to them the deed, O Jehovah, According to the work of their hands.
field: 25003065
25
3
65
Thou givest to them a covered heart, Thy curse to them.
field: 25003066
25
3
66
Thou pursuest in anger, and destroyest them, From under the heavens of Jehovah!

How is the gold become dim, Changed the best -- the pure gold? Poured out are stones of the sanctuary At the head of all out-places.
field: 25004002
25
4
2
The precious sons of Zion, Who are comparable with fine gold, How have they been reckoned earthen bottles, Work of the hands of a potter.
field: 25004003
25
4
3
Even dragons have drawn out the breast, They have suckled their young ones, The daughter of my people is become cruel, Like the ostriches in a wilderness.
field: 25004004
25
4
4
Cleaved hath the tongue of a suckling unto his palate with thirst, Infants asked bread, a dealer out they have none.
field: 25004005
25
4
5
Those eating of dainties have been desolate in out-places, Those supported on scarlet have embraced dunghills.
field: 25004006
25
4
6
And greater is the iniquity of the daughter of my people, Than the sin of Sodom, That was overturned as `in' a moment, And no hands were stayed on her.
field: 25004007
25
4
7
Purer were her Nazarites than snow, Whiter than milk, ruddier of body than rubies, Of sapphire their form.
field: 25004008
25
4
8
Darker than blackness hath been their visage, They have not been known in out-places, Cleaved hath their skin unto their bone, It hath withered -- it hath been as wood.
field: 25004009
25

9
Better have been the pierced of a sword Than the pierced of famine, For these flow away, pierced through, Without the increase of the field.
field: 25004010
25
4
10
The hands of merciful women have boiled their own children, They have been for food to them, In the destruction of the daughter of my people.
field: 25004011
25

11
Completed hath Jehovah His fury, He hath poured out the fierceness of His anger, And he kindleth a fire in Zion, And it devoureth her foundations.
field: 25004012
25

12
Believe not did the kings of earth, And any of the inhabitants of the world, That come would an adversary and enemy Into the gates of Jerusalem.
field: 25004013
25
4
13
Because of the sins of her prophets, The iniquities of her priests, Who are shedding in her midst the blood of the righteous,
field: 25004014
25
4
14
They have wandered naked in out-places, They have been polluted with blood, Without `any' being able to touch their clothing,
field: 25004015
25
4
15
`Turn aside -- unclean,' they called to them, `Turn aside, turn aside, touch not,' For they fled -- yea, they have wandered, They have said among nations: `They do not add to sojourn.'
field: 25004016
25
4
16
The face of Jehovah hath divided them, He doth not add to behold them, The face of priests they have not lifted up, Elders they have not favoured.
field: 25004017
25
4
17
While we exist -- consumed are our eyes for our vain help, In our watch-tower we have watched for a nation `that' saveth not.
field: 25004018
25
4
18
They have hunted our steps from going in our broad-places, Near hath been our end, fulfilled our days, For come hath our end.
field: 25004019
25
4
19
Swifter have been our pursuers, Than the eagles of the heavens, On the mountains they have burned `after' us, In the wilderness they have laid wait for us.
field: 25004020
25

20
The breath of our nostrils -- the anointed of Jehovah, Hath been captured in their pits, of whom we said: `In his shadow we do live among nations.'
field: 25004021

21
Joy and rejoice, O daughter of Edom, Dwelling in the land of Uz, Even unto thee pass over doth a cup, Thou art drunk, and makest thyself naked.
field: 25004022
25
4
22
Completed `is' thy iniquity, daughter of Zion, He doth not add to remove thee, He hath inspected thy iniquity, O daughter of Edom, He hath removed `thee' because of thy sins!

Remember, O Jehovah, what hath befallen us, Look attentively, and see our reproach.
field: 25005002
25

Our inheritance hath been turned to strangers, Our houses to foreigners.

Orphans we have been -- without a father, our mothers `are' as widows.
field: 25005004

Our water for money we have drunk, Our wood for a price doth come.
field: 25005005
25
5
5
For our neck we have been pursued, We have laboured -- there hath been no rest for us.
field: 25005006
25
5
6
`To' Egypt we have given a hand, `To' Asshur, to be satisfied with bread.
field: 25005007
25
5
7
Our fathers have sinned -- they are not, We their iniquities have borne.
field: 25005008
25
5
8
Servants have ruled over us, A deliverer there is none from their hand.
field: 25005009
25
5
9
With our lives we bring in our bread, Because of the sword of the wilderness.
field: 25005010
25

10
Our skin as an oven hath been burning, Because of the raging of the famine.
field: 25005011

Wives in Zion they have humbled, Virgins -- in cities of Judah.
field: 25005012
25
5
12
Princes by their hand have been hanged, The faces of elders have not been honoured.
field: 25005013
25
5
13
Young men to grind they have taken, And youths with wood have stumbled.
field: 25005014
25

14
The aged from the gate have ceased, Young men from their song.
field: 25005015
25

15
Ceased hath the joy of our heart, Turned to mourning hath been our dancing.
field: 25005016
25

16
Fallen hath the crown `from' our head, Wo `is' now to us, for we have sinned.
field: 25005017
25
5
17
For this hath our heart been sick, For these have our eyes been dim.
field: 25005018

18
For the mount of Zion -- that is desolate, Foxes have gone up on it.

19
Thou, O Jehovah, to the age remainest, Thy throne to generation and generation.
field: 25005020
25

20
Why for ever dost Thou forget us? Thou forsakest us for length of days!
field: 25005021
25
5
21
Turn us back, O Jehovah, unto Thee, And we turn back, renew our days as of old.
field: 25005022
25

For hast Thou utterly rejected us? Thou hast been wroth against us -- exceedingly?

And it cometh to pass, in the thirtieth year, in the fourth `month', in the fifth of the month, and I `am' in the midst of the Removed by the river Chebar, the heavens have been opened, and I see visions of God.
field: 26001002
26

In the fifth of the month -- it is the fifth year of the removal of the king Jehoiachin --
field: 26001003
26

hath the word of Jehovah certainly been unto Ezekiel son of Buzi the priest, in the land of the Chaldeans, by the river Chebar, and there is on him there a hand of Jehovah.
field: 26001004

And I look, and lo, a tempestuous wind is coming from the north, a great cloud, and fire catching itself, and brightness to it round about, and out of its midst as the colour of copper, out of the midst of the fire.
field: 26001005
26
1
5
And out of its midst `is' a likeness of four living creatures, and this `is' their appearance; a likeness of man `is' to them,
field: 26001006
26
1
6
and four faces `are' to each, and four wings `are' to each of them,
field: 26001007
26
1
7
and their feet `are' straight feet, and the sole of their feet `is' as a sole of a calf's foot, and they are sparkling as the colour of bright brass;
field: 26001008
26
1
8
and hands of man under their wings -- on their four sides, and their faces and their wings -- `are' to them four;
field: 26001009
26
1
9
joining one unto another `are' their wings, they turn not round in their going, each straight forward they go.
field: 26001010
26
1
10
As to the likeness of their faces, the face of a man, and the face of a lion, toward the right `are' to them four, and the face of an ox on the left `are' to them four, and the face of an eagle `are' to them four.
field: 26001011
26
1
11
And their faces and their wings are separate from above, to each `are' two joining together, and two are covering their bodies.
field: 26001012
26
1
12
And each straight forward they go, whither the spirit is to go, they go, they turn not round in their going.
field: 26001013
26
1
13
As to the likeness of the living creatures, their appearances `are' as coals of fire -- burning as the appearance of lamps; it is going up and down between the living creatures, and brightness `is' to the fire, and out of the fire is going forth lightning.
field: 26001014
26
1
14
And the living creatures are running, and turning back, as the appearance of the flash.
field: 26001015
26
1
15
And I see the living creatures, and lo, one wheel `is' in the earth, near the living creatures, at its four faces.
field: 26001016
26
1
16
The appearance of the wheels and their works `is' as the colour of beryl, and one likeness `is' to them four, and their appearances and their works `are' as it were the wheel in the midst of the wheel.
field: 26001017
26
1
17
On their four sides, in their going they go, they turn not round in their going.
field: 26001018
26
1
18
As to their rings, they are both high and fearful, and their rings `are' full of eyes round about them four.
field: 26001019
26
1
19
And in the going of the living creatures, the wheels go beside them, and in the living creatures being lifted up from off the earth, lifted up are the wheels.
field: 26001020
26
1
20
Whither the spirit is to go, they go, thither the spirit `is' to go, and the wheels are lifted up over-against them, for a living spirit `is' in the wheels.
field: 26001021
26
1
21
In their going, they go; and in their standing, they stand; and in their being lifted up from off the earth, lifted up are the wheels over-against them; for a living spirit `is' in the wheels.
field: 26001022
26
1
22
And a likeness `is' over the heads of the living creatures of an expanse, as the colour of the fearful ice, stretched out over their heads from above.
field: 26001023
26
1
23
And under the expanse their wings `are' straight, one toward the other, to each are two covering on this side, and to each are two covering on that side -- their bodies.
field: 26001024
26
1
24
And I hear the noise of their wings, as the noise of many waters, as the noise of the Mighty One, in their going -- the noise of tumult, as the noise of a camp, in their standing they let fall their wings.
field: 26001025
26
1
25
And there is a voice from above the expanse, that `is' above their head: in their standing they let fall their wings.
field: 26001026
26
1
26
And above the expanse that `is' over their head, as an appearance of a sapphire stone, `is' the likeness of a throne, and on the likeness of the throne a likeness, as the appearance of man upon it from above.
field: 26001027
26
1
27
And I see as the colour of copper, as the appearance of fire within it round about, from the appearance of his loins and upward, and from the appearance of his loins and downward, I have seen as the appearance of fire, and brightness `is' to it round about.
field: 26001028
26
1
28
As the appearance of the bow that is in a cloud in a day of rain, so `is' the appearance of the brightness round about.
field: 26002001
26
2
1
It `is' the appearance of the likeness of the honour of Jehovah, and I see, and fall on my face, and I hear a voice speaking, and He saith unto me, `Son of man, stand on thy feet, and I speak with thee.'
field: 26002002
26
2
2
And there doth come into me a spirit, when He hath spoken unto me, and it causeth me to stand on my feet, and I hear Him who is speaking unto me.
field: 26002003
26

3
And He saith unto Me, `Son of man, I am sending thee unto the sons of Israel, unto nations who are rebels, who have rebelled against Me; they and their fathers have transgressed against Me, unto this self-same day.
field: 26002004
26
2
4
And the sons `are' brazen-faced and hard-hearted to whom I am sending thee, and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah:
field: 26002005
26
2
5
and they -- whether they hear, or whether they forbear, for a rebellious house they `are' -- have known that a prophet hath been in their midst.
field: 26002006
26
2
6
`And thou, son of man, thou art not afraid of them, yea, of their words thou art not afraid, for briers and thorns are with thee, and near scorpions thou art dwelling, of their words thou art not afraid, and of their faces thou art not affrighted, for they `are' a rebellious house,
field: 26002007
26
2
7
And thou hast spoken My words unto them, whether they hear or whether they forbear, for they `are' rebellious.
field: 26002008
26
2
8
`And thou, son of man, hear that which I am speaking unto thee: Thou art not rebellious like the rebellious house, open thy mouth, and eat that which I am giving unto thee.'
field: 26002009
26
2
9
And I look, and lo, a hand `is' sent forth unto me, and lo, in it a roll of a book,
field: 26002010
26
2
10
and He spreadeth it before me, and it is written in front and behind, and written on it `are' lamentations, and mourning, and wo!
field: 26003001
26

1
And He saith unto me, `Son of man, that which thou findest eat, eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.'
field: 26003002
26
3
2
And I open my mouth, and He causeth me to eat this roll.
field: 26003003
26
3
3
And He saith unto me, `Son of man, thy belly thou dost feed, and thy bowels thou dost fill with this roll that I am giving unto thee;' and I eat it, and it is in my mouth as honey for sweetness.
field: 26003004
26
3
4
And He saith unto me, `Son of man, go, enter in unto the house of Israel, and thou hast spoken with My words unto them.
field: 26003005
26
3
5
For, not unto a people deep of lip and heavy of tongue `art' thou sent -- unto the house of Israel;
field: 26003006
26
3
6
not unto many peoples, deep of lip and heavy of tongue, whose words thou dost not understand. If I had not sent thee unto them -- they, they do hearken unto thee,
field: 26003007
26
3
7
but the house of Israel are not willing to hearken unto thee, for they are not willing to hearken unto Me, for all the house of Israel are brazen-faced and strong-hearted.
field: 26003008
26

`Lo, I have made thy face strong against their face, and thy forehead strong against their forehead.

As an adamant harder than a rock I have made thy forehead; thou dost not fear them, nor art thou affrighted before them, for a rebellious house `are' they.'
field: 26003010
26

And He saith unto me, `Son of man, all My words, that I speak unto thee, receive with thy heart, and with thine ears hear;

And lift me up doth a spirit, and I hear behind me a noise, a great rushing -- `Blessed `is' the honour of Jehovah from His place!' --
field: 26003013

13
even a noise of the wings of the living creatures touching one another, and a noise of the wheels over-against them, even a noise of a great rushing.
field: 26003014
26

14
And a spirit hath lifted me up, and doth take me away, and I go bitterly, in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of Jehovah on me `is' strong.
field: 26003015
26

15
And I come in unto the Removed, at Tel-Ahib, who are dwelling at the river Chebar, and where they are dwelling I also dwell seven days, causing astonishment in their midst.
field: 26003016
26

16
And it cometh to pass, at the end of seven days,
field: 26003017
26

17
that there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, `Son of man, a watchman I have given thee to the house of Israel, and thou hast heard from My mouth a word, and hast warned them from Me.
field: 26003018
26

18
In My saying to the wicked: Thou dost surely die; and thou hast not warned him, nor hast spoken to warn the wicked from his wicked way, so that he doth live; he -- the wicked -- in his iniquity dieth, and his blood from thy hand I require.
field: 26003019
26

And thou, because thou hast warned the wicked, and he hath not turned back from his wickedness, and from his wicked way, he in his iniquity dieth, and thou thy soul hast delivered.
field: 26003020
26

20
`And in the turning back of the righteous from his righteousness, and he hath done perversity, and I have put a stumbling-block before him, he dieth; because thou hast not warned him, in his sin he dieth, and not remembered is his righteousness that he hath done, and his blood from thy hand I require.
field: 26003021
26

21
And thou, because thou hast warned him -- the righteous -- that the righteous sin not, and he hath not sinned, he surely liveth, because he hath been warned; and thou thy soul hast delivered.'
field: 26003022
26
3
22
And there is on me there a hand of Jehovah, and He saith to me, `Rise, go forth to the valley, and there I do speak with thee.'
field: 26003023
26
3
23
And I rise and go forth unto the valley, and lo, there the honour of Jehovah is standing as the honour that I had seen by the river Chebar, and I fall on my face.
field: 26003024
26

24
And come into me doth a spirit, and causeth me to stand on my feet, and He speaketh with me, and saith unto me, `Go in, be shut up in the midst of thy house.

And thou, take to thee an iron pan, and thou hast made it a wall of iron between thee and the city; and thou hast prepared thy face against it, and it hath been in a siege, yea, thou hast laid siege against it. A sign it `is' to the house of Israel.

And thou hast completed these, and hast lain on thy right side, a second time, and hast borne the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days -- a day for a year -- a day for a year I have appointed to thee.

`And thou, take to thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and spelt, and thou hast put them in one vessel, and made them to thee for bread; the number of the days that thou art lying on thy side -- three hundred and ninety days -- thou dost eat it.

And He saith unto me, `Son of man, lo, I am breaking the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they have eaten bread by weight and with fear; and water by measure and with astonishment, they do drink;

Thus said the Lord Jehovah: this `is' Jerusalem, In the midst of the nations I have set her, And round about her `are' the lands.

And she changeth My judgments into wickedness more than the nations, And My statutes more than the lands that `are' round about her, For against My judgments they have kicked, And My statutes -- they have not walked in them.

Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of your multiplying above the nations that `are' around you, In My statutes ye have not walked, And My judgments ye have not done, According to the judgments of the nations That `are' round about you ye have not done.
field: 26005008

And I have done in thee that which I have not done, And that which I do not its like again, Because of all thine abominations.

Therefore fathers do eat sons in thy midst, And sons eat their fathers, And I have done in thee judgments, And have scattered all thy remnant to every wind.

Therefore, I live -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah: Because My sanctuary thou hast defiled, With all thy detestable things, And with all thine abominations, Mine eye pitieth not, and I also spare not. Do not even I also diminish?

And completed hath been Mine anger, And I have caused My fury to rest on them, And I have been comforted, And they have known that I, Jehovah, have spoken in My zeal, In My completing My fury on them.

And I give thee for a waste, And for a reproach among nations that `are' round about thee, Before the eyes of every passer by.

15
And it hath been a reproach and a reviling, An instruction and an astonishment, To nations that `are' round about thee, In My doing in thee judgments, In anger and fury, and in furious reproofs, I, Jehovah, have spoken.

`Son of man, set thy face unto mountains of Israel, and prophesy concerning them:

And put the carcases of the sons of Israel before their idols, And scattered your bones round about your altars.

In all your dwellings the cities are laid waste, And the high places are desolate, So that waste and desolate are your altars, And broken and ceased have your idols, And cut down have been your images, And blotted out have been your works.

And I have caused `some' to remain, In their being to you the escaped of the sword among nations, In your being scattered through lands.

9
And remembered Me have your escaped among nations, Whither they have been taken captive, Because I have been broken with their heart that is going a-whoring, That hath turned aside from off Me, And with their eyes they are going a-whoring after their idols, And they have been loathsome in their own faces, For the evils that they have done -- all their abominations.

And they have known that I `am' Jehovah, Not for nought have I spoken to do to them this evil.

And lo, the man clothed with linen, at whose loins `is' the inkhorn, is bringing back word, saying, `I have done as Thou hast commanded me.'
field: 26010001
26

1
And I look, and lo, on the expanse that `is' above the head of the cherubs, as a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne, He hath been seen over them.
field: 26010002
26
10
2
And He speaketh unto the man clothed with linen, and saith, `Go in unto the midst of the wheel, unto the place of the cherub, and fill thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubs, and scatter over the city.' And he goeth in before mine eyes.
field: 26010003
26
10
3
And the cherubs are standing on the right side of the house, at the going in of the man, and the cloud hath filled the inner court,
field: 26010004
26
10

and become high doth the honour of Jehovah above the cherub, over the threshold of the house, and the house is filled with the cloud, and the court hath been filled with the brightness of the honour of Jehovah.
field: 26010005
26
10
5
And a noise of the wings of the cherubs hath been heard unto the outer court, as the voice of God -- the Mighty One -- in His speaking.
field: 26010006
26
10
6
And it cometh to pass, in His commanding the man clothed with linen, saying, `Take fire from between the wheel, from between the cherubs,' and he goeth in and standeth near the wheel,
field: 26010007
26
10
7
that the `one' cherub putteth forth his hand from between the cherubs unto the fire that `is' between the cherubs, and lifteth up, and giveth into the hands of him who is clothed with linen, and he receiveth, and cometh forth.
field: 26010008
26
10
8
And there appeareth in the cherubs the form of a hand of man under their wings,
field: 26010009
26
10
9
and I look, and lo, four wheels near the cherubs, one wheel near the one cherub, and another wheel near the other cherub, and the appearance of the wheels `is' as the colour of a beryl stone.
field: 26010010
26
10
10
As to their appearances, one likeness `is' to them four, as it were the wheel in the midst of the wheel.
field: 26010011
26
10
11
In their going, on their four sides they go; they turn not round in their going, for to the place whither the head turneth, after it they go, they turn not round in their going.
field: 26010012
26
10
12
And all their flesh, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, are full of eyes round about; to them four `are' their wheels.
field: 26010013
26
10
13
To the wheels -- to them is one calling in mine ears, `O wheel!'
field: 26010014
26

14
And four faces `are' to each; the face of the one `is' the face of the cherub, and the face of the second the face of man, and of the third the face of a lion, and of the fourth the face of an eagle.
field: 26010015
26

15
And the cherubs are lifted up, it `is' the living creature that I saw by the river Chebar.
field: 26010016
26

16
And in the going of the cherubs, the wheels go beside them; and in the cherubs lifting up their wings to be high above the earth, the wheels turn not round, even they, from being beside them.
field: 26010017
26

17
In their standing they stand, and in their exaltation they are exalted with them: for the living spirit `is' in them.
field: 26010018
26
10
18
And go forth doth the honour of Jehovah from off the threshold of the house, and standeth over the cherubs,
field: 26010019
26
10
19
and the cherubs lift up their wings, and are lifted up from the earth before mine eyes; in their going forth, the wheels also `are' over-against them, and he standeth at the opening of the east gate of the house of Jehovah, and the honour of the God of Israel `is' over them from above.

It `is' the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar, and I know that they are cherubs.

Four faces `are' to each, and four wings to each, and the likeness of the hands of man `is' under their wings.

As to the likeness of their faces, they `are' the faces that I saw by the river Chebar, their appearances and themselves; each straight forward they go.

And lift me up doth a spirit, and it bringeth me in unto the east gate of the house of Jehovah, that is facing the east, and lo, at the opening of the gate twenty and five men, and I see in their midst Jaazaniah son of Azzur, and Pelatiah son of Benaiah, heads of the people.
field: 26011002
26
11

And He saith unto me, `Son of man, these `are' the men who are devising iniquity, and who are giving evil counsel in this city;
field: 26011003
26
11
3
who are saying, It `is' not near -- to build houses, it `is' the pot, and we the flesh.

Therefore prophesy concerning them, prophesy, son of man.'
field: 26011005

And fall upon me doth the Spirit of Jehovah, and He saith unto me, `Say: Thus said Jehovah: Rightly ye have said, O house of Israel, And the steps of your spirit I have known.

26
11

Ye multiplied your wounded in this city, And filled its out-places with the wounded.

Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Your wounded whom ye placed in its midst, They `are' the flesh, and it `is' the pot, And you he hath brought out from its midst.

A sword ye have feared, And a sword I bring in against you, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

And I have brought you out of its midst, And given you into the hand of strangers, And I have done among you judgments.

26
11
10
By the sword ye do fall, On the border of Israel I do judge you, And ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.
field: 26011011
26
11
11
It is not to you for a pot, Nor are ye in its midst for flesh, At the border of Israel I do judge you.
field: 26011012
26
11
12
And ye have known that I `am' Jehovah, For in My statutes ye have not walked, And My Judgments ye have not done, And according to the judgments of the nations Who are round about you -- ye have done!'
field: 26011013
26
11
13
And it cometh to pass, at my prophesying, that Pelatiah son of Benaiah is dying, and I fall on my face, and cry -- a loud voice -- and say, `Ah, Lord Jehovah, an end Thou art making of the remnant of Israel.'
field: 26011014
26
11
14
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,

`Son of man, thy brethren, thy brethren, men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel -- all of it, `are' they to whom inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Keep far off from Jehovah;
field: 26011016
26
11
16
it `is' ours, the land hath been given for an inheritance; therefore say: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because I put them afar off among nations, And because I scattered them through lands, I also am to them for a little sanctuary, In lands whither they have gone in.
field: 26011017
26
11
17
Therefore say: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: And I have assembled you from the peoples, And I have gathered you from the lands, Into which ye have been scattered, And I have given to you the ground of Israel.
field: 26011018
26
11
18
And they have gone in thither. And turned aside all its detestable things, And all its abominations -- out of it.
field: 26011019
26
11
19
And I have given to them one heart, And a new spirit I do give in your midst, And I have turned the heart of stone out of their flesh, And I have given to them a heart of flesh.
field: 26011020
26
11
20
So that in My statutes they walk, And My judgments they keep, and have done them, And they have been to me for a people, And I am to them for God.
field: 26011021
26
11
21
As to those whose heart is going unto the heart Of their detestable and their abominable things, Their way on their head I have put, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'

And the cherubs lift up their wings, and the wheels `are' over-against them, and the honour of the God of Israel `is' over them above.

And the honour of Jehovah goeth up from off the midst of the city, and standeth on the mountain, that `is' on the east of the city.
field: 26011024
26
11
24
And a spirit hath lifted me up, and bringeth me in to Chaldea, unto the Removed, in a vision, by the Spirit of God, and go up from off me doth the vision that I have seen;
field: 26011025
26
11
25
and I speak unto the Removed all the matters of Jehovah that He hath shewed me.
field: 26012001

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26012002
26

`Son of man, in the midst of the rebellious house thou art dwelling, that have eyes to see, and they have not seen; ears they have to hear, and they have not heard; for a rebellious house `are' they.
field: 26012003
26
12
3
And thou, son of man, make to thee vessels of removal, and remove by day before their eyes, and thou hast removed from thy place unto another place before their eyes, it may be they consider, for a rebellious house they `are'.
field: 26012004
26
12
4
And thou hast brought forth thy vessels as vessels of removal by day before their eyes, and thou, thou dost go forth at even before their eyes, as the goings forth of a removal.
field: 26012005
26
12
5
Before their eyes dig for thee through the wall, and thou hast brought forth by it.
field: 26012006
26
12
6
Before their eyes on the shoulder thou dost bear, in the darkness thou dost bring forth, thy face thou dost cover, and thou dost not see the earth, for a type I have given thee to the house of Israel.'
field: 26012007
26
12
7
And I do so, as I have been commanded; my vessels I have brought forth as vessels of removal by day, and at even I have dug for me through the wall with the hand; in the darkness I have brought forth, on the shoulder I have borne away, before their eyes.
field: 26012008
26

8
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, in the morning, saying,
field: 26012009
26
12
9
`Son of man, have they not said unto thee -- the house of Israel -- the rebellious house -- What art thou doing?
field: 26012010
26
12
10
say unto them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: `The prince `is' this burden in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel who are in their midst.
field: 26012011
26
12
11
Say: I `am' your type; as I have done so it is done to them, into a removal, into a captivity, they do go.
field: 26012012
26
12
12
As to the prince who `is' in their midst, on the shoulder he beareth in the darkness, and he goeth forth, through the wall they dig to bring forth by it, his face he covereth, that he may not look on the very surface of the land.
field: 26012013
26
12
13
And I have spread My net for him, and he hath been caught in My snare, and I have brought him in to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans, and it he doth not see -- and there doth he die.

26

`And all who are round about him to help him, and all his bands, I do scatter to every wind, and a sword I draw out after them.

26
12
15
And they have known that I `am' Jehovah, in My scattering them among nations, and I have spread them through lands;
field: 26012016
26
12
16
and I have left of them, a few in number, from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence, so that they recount all their abominations among the nations whither they have come, and they have known that I `am' Jehovah.'

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26012018
26
12
18
`Son of man, thy bread in haste thou dost eat, and thy water with trembling and with fear thou dost drink;
field: 26012019
26
12
19
and thou hast said unto the people of the land, Thus said the Lord Jehovah concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, concerning the land of Israel: Their bread with fear they do eat, and their water with astonishment drink, because its land is desolate, because of its fulness, because of the violence of all who are dwelling in it.
field: 26012020

20
And the cities that are inhabited are laid waste, and the land is a desolation, and ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.'

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26012022
26

22
`Son of man, what `is' this simile to you, concerning the land of Israel, saying, Prolonged are the days, and perished hath every vision?
field: 26012023
26
12
23
therefore say unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have caused this simile to cease, And they use it not as a simile again in Israel, But speak to them: Drawn near have the days, And spoken hath every vision.
field: 26012024
26
12
24
For there is no more any vain vision, and flattering divination, In the midst of the house of Israel.
field: 26012025
26
12
25
For I `am' Jehovah, I speak, The word that I speak -- it is done, It is not prolonged any more, For, in your days, O rebellious house, I speak a word, and I have done it, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:

`Son of man, lo, the house of Israel are saying, The vision that he is seeing `is' for many days, and of times far off he is prophesying,
field: 26012028
26
12
28
therefore say unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: None of my words are prolonged any more, When I speak a word -- it is done, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'
field: 26013001
26

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26013002
26

2
`Son of man, prophesy concerning the prophets of Israel who are prophesying, and thou hast said to those prophesying from their own heart: Hear ye a word of Jehovah:
field: 26013003
26
13
3
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Wo unto the prophets who are foolish, Who are going after their own spirit, And they have seen nothing.
field: 26013004
26
13
4
As foxes in the wastes, Thy prophets, O Israel, have been.
field: 26013005
26
13
5
Ye have not gone up into breaches, Nor do ye make a fence for the house of Israel, To stand in battle in a day of Jehovah.
field: 26013006
26
13
6
They have seen vanity, and lying divination, Who are saying: An affirmation of Jehovah, And Jehovah hath not sent them, And they have hoped to establish a word.
field: 26013007
26
13
7
A vain vision have ye not seen, And a lying divination spoken, When ye say: An affirmation of Jehovah, And I have not spoken?
field: 26013008
26
13
8
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen a lie, Therefore, lo, I `am' against you, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
field: 26013009
26
13
9
And My hand hath been on the prophets, Who are seeing vanity, and who are divining a lie, In the assembly of My people they are not, And in the writing of the house of Israel they are not written, And unto the ground of Israel they come not, And ye have known that I `am' the Lord Jehovah.
field: 26013010
26
13
10
Because, even because, they did cause My people to err, Saying, Peace! and there is no peace, And that one is building a wall, And lo, they are daubing it with chalk.
field: 26013011
26
13
11
Say to those daubing with chalk -- It falleth, There hath been an overflowing shower, And ye, O hailstones, do fall, And a tempestuous wind doth rend,
field: 26013012
26
13
12
And lo, fallen hath the wall! Doth not one say unto you, Where `is' the daubing that ye daubed?
field: 26013013
26
13
13
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have rent with a tempestuous wind in My fury, And an overflowing shower is in Mine anger, And hailstones in My fury -- to consume.
field: 26013014
26
13
14
And I have broken down the wall that ye daubed with chalk, And have caused it to come unto the earth, And revealed hath been its foundation, And it hath fallen, And ye have been consumed in its midst, And ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.
field: 26013015
26
13
15
And I have completed My wrath on the wall, And on those daubing it with chalk, And I say to you: The wall is not, And those daubing it are not;
field: 26013016
26

16
The prophets of Israel who are prophesying concerning Jerusalem, And who are seeing for her a vision of peace, And there is no peace, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
field: 26013017
26
13
17
And thou, son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, who are prophesying out of their own heart, and prophesy concerning them,
field: 26013018
26
13
18
And thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Wo to those sowing pillows for all joints of the arm, And to those making the kerchiefs For the head of every stature -- to hunt souls, The souls do ye hunt of My people? And the souls ye have do ye keep alive?
field: 26013019
26
13
19
Yea, ye pierce Me concerning My people, For handfuls of barley, And for pieces of bread, to put to death Souls that should not die, And to keep alive souls that should not live, By your lying to My people -- hearkening to lies.
field: 26013020
26
13
20
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I `am' against your pillows, With which ye are hunting there the souls of the flourishing, And I have rent them from off your arms, And have sent away the souls that ye are hunting, The souls of the flourishing.
field: 26013021
26
13
21
And I have torn your kerchiefs, And delivered My people out of your hand, And they are no more in your hand for a prey, And ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.
field: 26013022
26
13
22
Because of paining the heart of the righteous with falsehood, And I have not pained it, And strengthening the hands of the wicked, So as not to turn back from his evil way, To keep him alive,
field: 26013023
26
13
23
Therefore, vanity ye do not see, And divination ye do not divine again, And I have delivered My people out of your hand, And ye have known that I `am' Jehovah!'

And come in unto me do certain of the elders of Israel, and sit before me.

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26014003
26

`Son of man, these men have caused their idols to go up on their heart, and the stumbling-block of their iniquity they have put over-against their faces; am I inquired of at all by them?
field: 26014004
26
14

`Therefore, speak with them, and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Every one of the house of Israel who causeth his idols to go up unto his heart, and the stumbling-block of his iniquity setteth over-against his face, and hath gone in unto the prophet -- I Jehovah have given an answer to him for this, for the abundance of his idols,

in order to catch the house of Israel by their heart, in that they have become estranged from off me by their idols -- all of them.

`Therefore say unto the house of Israel: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Turn ye back, yea, turn ye back from your idols, and from all your abominations turn back your faces,

7
for every one of the house of Israel, and of the sojourners who doth sojourn in Israel, who is separated from after Me, and doth cause his idols to go up unto his heart, and the stumbling-block of his iniquity setteth over-against his face, and hath come in unto the prophet to inquire of him concerning Me, I, Jehovah, have answered him for Myself;

and I have set My face against that man, and made him for a sign, and for similes, and I have cut him off from the midst of My people, and ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.

`And the prophet, when he is enticed, and hath spoken a word -- I, Jehovah, I have enticed that prophet, and have stretched out My hand against him, and have destroyed him from the midst of My people Israel.

And they have borne their iniquity: as the iniquity of the inquirer, so is the iniquity of the prophet;

11
so that the house of Israel do not wander any more from after Me, nor are defiled any more with all their transgressions, and they have been to Me for a people, and I am to them for God -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,

`Son of man, the land -- when it sinneth against Me to commit a trespass, and I have stretched out My hand against it, and broken for it the staff of bread, and sent into it famine, and cut off from it man and beast --

`Son of man, What is the vine-tree more than any tree? The vine-branch that hath been, Among trees of the forest?
field: 26015003
26
15

Is wood taken from it to use for work? Do they take of it a pin to hang any vessel on it?
field: 26015004
26

Lo, to the fire it hath been given for fuel, Its two ends hath the fire eaten, And its midst hath been scorched! Is it profitable for work?

Lo, in its being perfect it is not used for work, How much less, when fire hath eaten of it, And it is scorched, Hath it been used yet for work?
field: 26015006
26

Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: As the vine-tree among trees of the forest, That I have given to the fire for fuel, So I have given the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
field: 26015007

26
16
37
Therefore, lo, I am assembling all thy lovers, To whom thou hast been sweet, And all whom thou hast loved, Besides all whom thou hast hated; And I have assembled them by thee round about, And have revealed thy nakedness to them, And they have seen all thy nakedness.
field: 26016038
26

And I have judged thee -- judgments of adultresses, And of women shedding blood, And have given thee blood, fury, and jealousy.
field: 26016039
26
16
39
And I have given thee into their hand, And they have thrown down thine arch, And they have broken down thy high places, And they have stript thee of thy garments, And they have taken thy beauteous vessels, And they have left thee naked and bare.
field: 26016040
26
16
40
And have caused an assembly to come up against thee, And stoned thee with stones, And thrust thee through with their swords,
field: 26016041
26
16
41
And burnt thy houses with fire, And done in thee judgments before the eyes of many women, And I have caused thee to cease from going a-whoring, And also a gift thou givest no more.
field: 26016042
26
16
42
And I have caused My fury against thee to rest, And My jealousy hath turned aside from thee, And I have been quiet, and I am not angry any more.

Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, And dost give trouble to Me in all these, Lo, even I also thy way at first gave up, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, And I did not this thought for all thine abominations.

Lo, every one using a simile, Doth use a simile concerning thee, saying: As the mother -- her daughter!

`Son of man, put forth a riddle, and use a simile unto the house of Israel,

and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: The great eagle, great-winged, long-pinioned, Full of feathers, that hath diverse colours, Hath come in unto Lebanon, And it taketh the foliage of the cedar,
field: 26017004
26
17
4
The top of its tender twigs it hath cropped, And it bringeth it in to the land of Canaan. In a city of merchants it hath placed it.
field: 26017005
26
17
5
And it taketh of the seed of the land, And doth put it in a field of seed, To take by many waters, In a conspicuous place it hath set it.
field: 26017006
26
17
6
And it springeth up, and becometh a spreading vine, humble of stature, To turn its thin shoots toward itself, And its roots are under it, And it becometh a vine, and maketh boughs, And sendeth forth beauteous branches.
field: 26017007
26
17
7
And there is another great eagle, Great-winged, and abounding with feathers, And lo, this vine hath bent its roots toward him, And its thin shoots it hath sent out toward him, To water it from the furrows of its planting,
field: 26017008
26

8
On a good field, by many waters, it is planted, To make branches, and to bear fruit, To be for an goodly vine.

Say: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: It prospereth -- its roots doth he not draw out, And its fruit cut off, and it is withered? `In' all the leaves of its springing it withereth, And not by great strength, and by a numerous people, To lift it up by its roots.
field: 26017010

And lo, the planted thing -- doth it prosper? When come against it doth the east wind, Doth it not utterly wither? On the furrows of its springing it withereth.'

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
field: 26017012
26

`Say, I pray thee, to the rebellious house, Have ye not known what these `are'? Say, Lo, come hath the king of Babylon to Jerusalem, And he taketh its king, and its princes, And bringeth them to himself to Babylon.

That the kingdom may be humble, That it may not lift itself up, To keep his covenant -- that it may stand.

15
And he rebelleth against him, To send his messengers to Egypt, To give to him horses, and much people, Doth he prosper? doth he escape who is doing these things? And hath he broken covenant and escaped?

And he despised the oath -- to break covenant, And lo, he hath given his hand, And all these he hath done, he escapeth not.

Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: I live -- Mine oath that he hath despised, And My covenant that he hath broken, Have I not put it on his head?

20
And I have spread out for him My snare, And he hath been caught in My net, And I have brought him in to Babylon, And pleaded with him there his trespass, That he hath trespassed against Me.

Therefore, each according to his ways I judge you, O house of Israel? An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Turn ye back, yea, turn yourselves back, From all your transgressions, And iniquity is not to you for a stumbling-block,

Cast from off you all your transgressions, By which ye have transgressed, And make to you a new heart, and a new spirit, And why do ye die, O house of Israel?

And thou, lift up a lamentation unto princes of Israel,

and thou hast said: What `is' thy mother? -- a lioness, Among lions she hath crouched down, In the midst of young lions she hath multiplied her whelps.
field: 26019003

And she bringeth up one of her whelps, A young lion it hath been, And it learneth to tear prey, man it hath devoured.

And hear of it do nations, In their pit it hath been caught, And they bring it in with chains unto the land of Egypt.

And she seeth, that stayed -- perished hath her hope, And she taketh one of her whelps, A young lion she hath made it.

And it goeth up and down in the midst of lions, A young lion it hath been, And it learneth to tear prey, man it hath devoured.

And it knoweth his forsaken habitations, And their cities it hath laid waste, And desolate is the land and its fulness, Because of the voice of his roaring.

And set against it do nations Round about from the provinces. And they spread out for it their net, In their pit it hath been caught.

And it is plucked up in fury, To the earth it hath been cast, And the east wind hath dried up its fruit, Broken and withered hath been the rod of its strength, Fire hath consumed it.

And now -- it is planted in a wilderness, In a land dry and thirsty.

`Son of man, speak with the elders of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: To seek Me are ye coming in? I live -- I am not sought by you -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

Dost thou judge them? Dost thou judge, son of man? The abominations of their fathers cause them to know,

and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In the day of My fixing on Israel, I lift up My hand, To the seed of the house of Jacob, And am known to them in the land of Egypt, And I lift up My hand to them, Saying, I `am' Jehovah your God.
field: 26020006
26
20

In that day I did lift up My hand to them, To bring them forth from the land of Egypt, Unto a land that I spied out for them, Flowing with milk and honey, A beauty it `is' to all the lands,
field: 26020007
26
20

And I say unto them, Let each cast away the detestable things of his eyes, And with the idols of Egypt be not defiled, I `am' Jehovah your God.
field: 26020008
26

And -- they rebel against Me, And have not been willing to hearken to Me, Each, the detestable things of their eyes, They have not cast away, And the idols of Egypt have not forsaken, And I say -- to pour out My fury on them, To complete Mine anger against them, In the midst of the land of Egypt.
field: 26020009
26
20

And I do `it' for My name's sake, Not to pollute `it' before the eyes of the nations, In whose midst they `are', Before whose eyes I became known to them, To bring them out from the land of Egypt.
field: 26020010
26
20
10
And I bring them out of the land of Egypt, And I bring them in unto the wilderness,
field: 26020011
26
20
11
And I give to them My statutes, And my judgments I caused them to know, Which the man who doth -- liveth by them.
field: 26020012
26
20
12
And also My sabbaths I have given to them, To be for a sign between Me and them, To know that I `am' Jehovah their sanctifier.
field: 26020013
26
20
13
And -- rebel against me do the house of Israel in the wilderness, In My statutes they have not walked, And My judgments they have despised, Which the man who doth -- liveth by them. And My sabbaths they have greatly polluted, And I say to pour out My fury on them in the wilderness, to consume them.
field: 26020014
26
20

And I do `it' for My name's sake, Not to pollute `it' before the eyes of the nations, Before whose eyes I brought them forth.

15
And also, I, I have lifted up My hand to them in the wilderness, Not to bring them in to the land that I had given, Flowing with milk and honey, A beauty it `is' to all the lands,
field: 26020016
26
20
16
Because against My judgments they did kick, And in My statutes they have not walked, And My sabbaths they have polluted, For after their idols their heart is going.
field: 26020017
26
20
17
And Mine eye hath pity on them -- against destroying them, And I have not made of them an end in the wilderness.
field: 26020018
26
20
18
And I say to their sons in the wilderness: In the statutes of your fathers ye walk not, And their judgments ye do not observe, And with their idols ye are not defiled.
field: 26020019

20
19
I `am' Jehovah your God, in My statutes walk, And My judgments observe, and do them,

And My sabbaths sanctify, And they have been for a sign between Me and you, To know that I, Jehovah, `am' your God.

And -- the sons rebel against Me, In My statutes they have not walked, And My judgments they have not observed -- to do them, Which the man who doth -- liveth by them. My sabbaths they have polluted, And I say to pour out My fury upon them, To complete Mine anger against them in the wilderness.
field: 26020022
26
20

And I have turned back My hand, And I do `it' for My name's sake, Not to pollute `it' before the eyes of the nations, Before whose eyes I brought them out.
field: 26020023
26
20
23
I also, I have lifted up My hand to them in the wilderness, To scatter them among nations, And to spread them through lands.
field: 26020024
26
20
24
Because My judgments they have not done, And My statutes they have despised, And My sabbaths they have polluted, And after idols of their fathers have their eyes been.
field: 26020025
26
20
25
And I also, I have given to them statutes not good, And judgments by which they do not live.
field: 26020026
26
20
26
And I defile them by their own gifts, By causing to pass away every opener of a womb, So that I make them desolate, So that they know that I `am' Jehovah.

20
27
Therefore, speak unto the house of Israel, son of man, and thou hast said unto them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Still in this have your fathers reviled Me, In their committing against Me a trespass.
field: 26020028
26
20
28
And I bring them in unto the land, That I did lift up My hand to give to them, And they see every high hill, and every thick tree, And they sacrifice there their sacrifices, And give there the provocation of their offering, And make there their sweet fragrance, And they pour out there their libations.
field: 26020029
26

And I say unto them: What `is' the high place whither ye are going in? And its name is called `high place' to this day.
field: 26020030

20
30
Therefore, say unto the house of Israel: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In the way of your fathers are ye defiled? And after their detestable things go a-whoring?
field: 26020031
26
20
31
And in the offering of your gifts, In causing your sons to pass through fire, Ye are defiled by all your idols to this day, And I am sought by you, O house of Israel! I live -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, I am not sought by you.
field: 26020032
26
20
32
And that which is going up on your mind, It is not at all -- in that ye are saying: We will be as the nations, as the families of the lands, To serve wood and stone.
field: 26020033

And I have brought you forth from the peoples, And assembled you from the lands In which ye have been scattered, With a strong hand and with a stretched-out arm, And with fury poured out.
field: 26020035
26
20
35
And I have brought you in unto the wilderness of the peoples, And have been judged with you there face to face.

36
As I was judged with your fathers, In the wilderness of the land of Egypt, So I am judged with you, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

And I have caused you to pass under the rod, And brought you into the bond of the covenant,

And cleared out from you the rebels, And them transgressing against Me, From the land of their sojournings I bring them out, And unto the land of Israel they come not, And ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.

And ye, O house of Israel, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Each his idols -- go -- serve ye, And, afterwards, if ye are not hearkening to me, And My holy name ye do not pollute any more by your gifts, and by your idols.

field: 26020043

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26020046

Son of man, set thy face the way of Teman, and prophesy unto the south, and prophesy unto the forest of the field -- the south;

`Son of man, set thy face unto Jerusalem, and prophesy unto the holy places, and prophesy unto the ground of Israel;

Because that I have cut off from thee righteous and wicked, Therefore go out doth My sword from its scabbard, Unto all flesh, from south to north.

And thou, son of man, sigh with breaking of loins, yea, with bitterness thou dost sigh before their eyes,

and it hath come to pass, when they say unto thee, For what art thou sighing? that thou hast said: Because of the report, for it is coming, And melted hath every heart, And feeble hath been all hands, And weak is every spirit, And all knees go -- waters, Lo, it is coming, yea, it hath been, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'

`Son of man, prophesy, and thou hast said, Thus said Jehovah, say: A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also polished.

So as to slaughter a slaughter it is sharpened. So as to have brightness it is polished, Desire hath rejoiced the sceptre of my son, It is despising every tree.

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,

`And thou, son of man, appoint for thee two ways, for the coming in of the sword of the king of Babylon; from one land they come forth, both of them, and a station prepare thou, at the top of the way of the city prepare `it'.
field: 26021020
26
21
20
A way appoint for the coming of the sword, Unto Rabbath of the sons of Ammon, And to Judah, in Jerusalem -- the fenced.
field: 26021021
26
21
21
For stood hath the king of Babylon at the head of the way, At the top of the two ways, to use divination, He hath moved lightly with the arrows, He hath asked at the teraphim, He hath looked on the liver.
field: 26021022
26
21
22
At his right hath been the divination -- Jerusalem, To place battering-rams, To open the mouth with slaughter, To lift up a voice with shouting, To place battering-rams against the gates, To pour out a mount, to build a fortification.
field: 26021023
26

And it hath been to them as a false divination in their eyes, Who have sworn oaths to them, And he is causing iniquity to be remembered to be caught.
field: 26021024
26

24
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of your causing your iniquity to be remembered, In your transgressions being revealed, For your sins being seen, in all your doings, Because of your being remembered, By the hand ye are caught.

Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Turn aside the mitre, and bear away the crown, This -- not this -- the low make high, And the high make low.

27
An overturn, overturn, overturn, I make it, Also this hath not been till the coming of Him, Whose `is' the judgment, and I have given it.

And thou, son of man, prophesy, and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah concerning the sons of Ammon, and concerning their reproach: and thou hast said: A sword, a sword, open for slaughter, Polished to the utmost for brightness!
field: 26021029

Turn `it' back unto its scabbard, In the place where thou wast produced, In the land of thy birth I do judge thee.

And I have poured on thee Mine indignation, With fire of My wrath I blow against thee, And have given thee into the hand of brutish men -- artificers of destruction.

To the fire thou art for fuel, Thy blood is in the midst of the land, Thou art not remembered, For I, Jehovah, have spoken!'

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26022002

`And thou, son of man, dost thou judge? dost thou judge the city of blood? then thou hast caused it to know all its abominations,

field: 26022004
26
22
4
By thy blood that thou hast shed thou hast been guilty, And by thine idols that thou hast made thou hast been defiled, And thou causest thy days to draw near, And art come in unto thine years, Therefore I have given thee a reproach to nations, And a derision to all the lands.

Lo, princes of Israel -- each according to his arm Have been in thee to shed blood.

Father and mother made light of in thee, To a sojourner they dealt oppressively in thy midst, Fatherless and widow they oppressed in thee.

My holy things thou hast despised, And My sabbaths thou hast polluted.
field: 26022009
26

Men of slander have been in thee to shed blood, And on the mountains they have eaten in thee, Wickedness they have done in thy midst.
field: 26022010
26
22
10
The nakedness of a father hath one uncovered in thee, The defiled of impurity they humbled in thee.
field: 26022011
26
22
11
And each with the wife of his neighbour hath done abomination, And each his daughter-in-law hath defiled through wickedness, And each his sister, his father's daughter, hath humbled in thee.
field: 26022012
26
22

A bribe they have taken in thee to shed blood, Usury and increase thou hast taken, And cuttest off thy neighbour by oppression, And Me thou hast forgotten, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!
field: 26022013
26

13
And lo, I have smitten My hand, Because of thy dishonest gain that thou hast gained, And for thy blood that hath been in thy midst.

14
Doth thy heart stand -- are thy hands strong, For the days that I am dealing with thee? I, Jehovah, have spoken and have done `it'.

15
And I have scattered thee among nations, And have spread thee out among lands, And consumed thy uncleanness out of thee.

And thou hast been polluted in thyself Before the eyes of nations, And thou hast known that I `am' Jehovah.'

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, `Son of man,

The house of Israel hath been to Me for dross, All of them `are' brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, In the midst of a furnace -- dross hath silver been,

19
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of your all becoming dross, Therefore, lo, I am gathering you unto the midst of Jerusalem,

20
A gathering of silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, Unto the midst of a furnace -- to blow on it fire, to melt it, So do I gather in Mine anger and in My fury, And I have let rest, and have melted you.

And I have heaped you up, And blown on you in the fire of My wrath, And ye have been melted in its midst.

As the melting of silver in the midst of a furnace, So are ye melted in its midst, And ye have known that I, Jehovah, I have poured out My fury upon you.'
field: 26022023
26
22
23
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
field: 26022024
26
22
24
`Son of man, say to it, Thou `art' a land, It `is' not cleansed nor rained on in a day of indignation.
field: 26022025
26
22
25
A conspiracy of its prophets `is' in its midst, as a roaring lion tearing prey; The soul they have devoured, Wealth and glory they have taken, Its widows have multiplied in its midst.
field: 26022026
26
22
26
Its priests have wronged My law, And they pollute My holy things, Between holy and common they have not made separation, And between the unclean and the clean they have not made known, And from my sabbaths they have hidden their eyes, And I am pierced in their midst.
field: 26022027
26
22
27
Its princes in its midst `are' as wolves, Tearing prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, For the sake of gaining dishonest gain.
field: 26022028
26
22
28
And its prophets have daubed for them with chalk, Seeing a vain thing, and divining for them a lie, Saying, `Thus said the Lord Jehovah:' And Jehovah hath not spoken.
field: 26022029
26
22
29
The people of the land have used oppression, And have taken plunder violently away, And humble and needy have oppressed, And the sojourner oppressed -- without judgment.
field: 26022030
26
22
30
And I seek of them a man making a fence, And standing in the breach before Me, In behalf of the land -- not to destroy it, And I have not found.
field: 26022031
26
22
31
And I pour out on them mine indignation, By fire of My wrath I have consumed them, Their way on their own head I have put, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'
field: 26023001
26
23
1
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, `Son of man,
field: 26023002
26
23
2
Two women were daughters of one mother,
field: 26023003
26
23
3
And they go a-whoring in Egypt, In their youth they have gone a-whoring, There they have bruised their breasts, And there they have dealt with the loves of their virginity.
field: 26023004
26
23
4
And their names `are' Aholah the elder, And Aholibah her sister, And they are Mine, and bear sons and daughters. As to their names -- Samaria `is' Aholah, And Jerusalem `is' Aholibah.
field: 26023005
26
23
5
And go a-whoring doth Aholah under Me, And she doteth on her lovers, On the neighbouring Assyrians,
field: 26023006
26
23
6
Clothed with blue -- governors and prefects, Desirable young men all of them, Horsemen, riding on horses,
field: 26023007
26
23
7
And she giveth her whoredoms on them, The choice of the sons of Asshur, All of them -- even all on whom she doted, By all their idols she hath been defiled.
field: 26023008
26
23
8
And her whoredoms out of Egypt she hath not forsaken, For with her they lay in her youth, And they dealt with the loves of her virginity, And they pour out their whoredoms on her.
field: 26023009
26
23
9
Therefore I have given her into the hand of her lovers, Into the hand of sons of Asshur on whom she doted.
field: 26023010
26
23
10
They have uncovered her nakedness, Her sons and her daughters they have taken, And her by sword they have slain, And she is a name for women, And judgments they have done with her.
field: 26023011
26
23
11
And see doth her sister Aholibah, And she maketh her doting love more corrupt than she, And her whoredoms than the whoredoms of her sister.
field: 26023012
26
23
12
On sons of Asshur she hath doted, Governors and prefects, Neighbouring ones -- clothed in perfection, Horsemen, riding on horses, Desirable young men all of them.
field: 26023013
26
23
13
And I see that she hath been defiled, One way `is' to them both.
field: 26023014
26
23
14
And she doth add unto her whoredoms, And she seeth graved men on the wall, Pictures of Chaldeans, graved with red lead,
field: 26023015
26
23
15
Girded with a girdle on their loins, Dyed attire spread out on their heads, The appearance of rulers -- all of them, The likeness of sons of Babylon, Chaldea is the land of their birth.
field: 26023016
26
23
16
And she doteth on them at the sight of her eyes, And sendeth messengers to them, to Chaldea.
field: 26023017
26
23
17
And come in unto her do sons of Babylon, To the bed of loves, And they defile her with their whoredoms, And she is defiled with them, And her soul is alienated from them.
field: 26023018
26
23
18
And she revealeth her whoredoms, And she revealeth her nakedness, And alienated is My soul from off her, As alienated was My soul from off her sister.
field: 26023019
26
23
19
And she multiplieth her whoredoms, To remember the days of her youth, When she went a-whoring in the land of Egypt.
field: 26023020
26
23
20
And she doteth on their paramours, Whose flesh `is' the flesh of asses, And the issue of horses -- their issue.
field: 26023021
26
23
21
Thou lookest after the wickedness of thy youth, In dealing out of Egypt thy loves, For the sake of the breasts of thy youth.
field: 26023022
26
23
22
Therefore, O Aholibah, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am stirring up thy lovers against thee, From whom thy soul hath been alienated, And have brought them in against thee from round about.
field: 26023023
26
23
23
Sons of Babylon, and of all Chaldea, Pekod, and Shoa, and Koa, All the sons of Asshur with them, Desirable young men, governors and prefects, All of them -- rulers and proclaimed ones, Riding on horses, all of them.
field: 26023024
26
23
24
And they have come in against thee, With arms, rider, and wheel, And with an assembly of peoples; Target, and shield, and helmet, They do set against thee round about, And I have set before them judgment, They have judged thee in their Judgments.
field: 26023025
26
23
25
And I have set My jealousy against thee, And they have dealt with thee in fury, Thy nose and thine ears they turn aside, And thy posterity by sword falleth, They, thy sons and thy daughters do take away, And thy posterity is devoured by fire.
field: 26023026
26
23
26
And they have stripped thee of thy garments, And have taken thy beauteous jewels.
field: 26023027
26
23
27
And I have caused thy wickedness to cease from thee, And thy whoredoms out of the land of Egypt, And thou liftest not up thine eyes unto them, And Egypt thou dost not remember again.
field: 26023028
26
23
28
For thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am giving thee into a hand that thou hast hated, Into a hand from which thou wast alienated.
field: 26023029
26
23
29
And they have dealt with thee in hatred, And they have taken all thy labour, And they have left thee naked and bare, And revealed hath been the nakedness of thy whoredoms, And the wickedness of thy whoredoms.
field: 26023030
26
23
30
To do these things to thee, In thy going a-whoring after nations, Because thou hast been defiled with their idols,
field: 26023031
26
23
31
In the way of thy sister thou hast walked, And I have given her cup into thy hand.
field: 26023032
26
23
32
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: The cup of thy sister thou dost drink, The deep and the wide one, (Thou art for laughter and for scorn,) Abundant to contain.
field: 26023033
26
23
33
With drunkenness and sorrow thou art filled, A cup of astonishment and desolation, The cup of thy sister Samaria.
field: 26023034
26
23
34
And thou hast drunk it, and hast drained `it', And its earthen ware thou dost gnaw, And thine own breasts thou pluckest off, For I have spoken, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah,
field: 26023035
26
23
35
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because thou hast forgotten Me, And thou dost cast Me behind thy back, Even thou also bear thy wickedness and thy whoredoms.'
field: 26023036
26
23
36
And Jehovah saith unto me, `Son of man, Dost thou judge Aholah and Aholibah? Declare then to them their abominations.
field: 26023037
26
23
37
For they have committed adultery, And blood `is' in their hands, With their idols they committed adultery, And also their sons whom they bore to Me, They caused to pass over to them for food.
field: 26023038
26
23
38
Again, this they have done to Me, They defiled My sanctuary in that day, And My sabbaths they have polluted.
field: 26023039
26
23
39
And in their slaughtering their sons to their idols They also come in unto My sanctuary in that day to pollute it, And lo, thus they have done in the midst of My house,
field: 26023040
26
23
40
And also that they send to men coming from afar, Unto whom a messenger is sent, And lo, they have come in for whom thou hast washed, Painted thine eyes, and put on adornment.
field: 26023041
26
23
41
And thou hast sat on a couch of honour, And a table arrayed before it, And My perfume and My oil placed on it.
field: 26023042
26
23
42
And the voice of a multitude at ease `is' with her, And unto men of the common people are brought in Sabeans from the wilderness, And they put bracelets on their hands, And a beauteous crown on their heads.
field: 26023043
26
23
43
And I say of the worn-out one in adulteries, Now they commit her whoredoms -- she also!
field: 26023044
26
23
44
And they come in unto her, As the coming in unto a whorish woman, So they have come in unto Aholah, And unto Aholibah -- the wicked women.
field: 26023045
26
23
45
As to righteous men, they judge them with the judgment of adulteresses, And the judgment of women shedding blood, For they `are' adulteresses, And blood `is' in their hands.
field: 26023046
26
23
46
For thus said the Lord Jehovah: Bring up against them an assembly, And give them to trembling and to spoiling.
field: 26023047
26
23
47
And they have cast at them the stone of the assembly, And cut them with their swords, Their sons and their daughters they do slay, And their houses with fire they burn.
field: 26023048
26
23
48
And I have caused wickedness to cease from the land, And instructed have been all the women, And they do not according to your wickedness.
field: 26023049
26
23
49
And they have put your wickedness on you, And the sins of your idols ye bear, And ye have known that I `am' the Lord Jehovah!
field: 26024001
26
24
1
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth of the month, saying,
field: 26024002
26
24
2
`Son of man, write for thee the name of the day -- this self-same day leaned hath the king of Babylon toward Jerusalem in this self-same day --
field: 26024003
26
24
3
and use unto the rebellious house a simile, and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: To set on the pot, to set `it' on, and also to pour into it water,
field: 26024004
26
24
4
To gather its pieces unto it, every good piece, Thigh and shoulder, the choice of the bones to fill in.
field: 26024005
26
24
5
The choice of the flock to take, And also to pile of the bones under it, Boil it thoroughly, yea, cook its bones in its midst.
field: 26024006
26
24
6
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Wo `to' the city of blood, A pot whose scum `is' in it, And its scum hath not come out of it, By piece of it, by piece of it bring it out, Not fallen on it hath a lot.
field: 26024007
26
24
7
For her blood in her midst hath been, On a clear place of a rock she hath set it, She hath not poured it on the earth, To cover it over with dust.
field: 26024008
26
24
8
To cause fury to come up to take vengeance, I have put her blood on a clear place of a rock -- not to be covered.
field: 26024009
26
24
9
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Wo `to' the city of blood, yea, I -- I make great the pile.
field: 26024010
26
24
10
Make abundant the wood, Kindle the fire, consume the flesh, And make the compound, And let the bones be burnt.
field: 26024011
26
24
11
And cause it to stand on its coals empty, So that its brass is hot and burning, Melted hath been in its midst its uncleanness, Consumed is its scum.
field: 26024012
26
24
12
`With' sorrows she hath wearied herself, And the abundance of her scum goeth not out of her, In the fire `is' her scum.
field: 26024013
26
24
13
In thine uncleanness `is' wickedness, Because I have cleansed thee, And thou hast not been cleansed, From thine uncleanness thou art not cleansed again, Till I have caused My fury to rest on thee.
field: 26024014
26
24
14
I, Jehovah, hath spoken, It hath come, and I have done `it', I do not free, nor do I spare, nor do I repent, According to thy ways, and according to thine acts, they have judged thee, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'
field: 26024015
26
24
15
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26024016
26
24
16
`Son of man, lo, I am taking from thee the desire of thine eyes by a stroke, and thou dost not mourn, nor weep, nor let thy tear come.
field: 26024017
26
24
17
Cease to groan, `for' the dead thou dost make no mourning, thy bonnet bind on thee, and thy shoes thou dost put on thy feet, and thou dost not cover over the upper lip, and bread of men thou dost not eat.'
field: 26024018
26

And I speak unto the people in the morning, and my wife dieth in the evening, and I do in the morning as I have been commanded.
field: 26024019
26
24
19
And the people say unto me, `Dost thou not declare to us what these `are' to us, that thou art doing?'
field: 26024020
26
24
20
And I say unto them, `A word of Jehovah hath been unto me, saying:
field: 26024021
26
24
21
Say to the house of Israel: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am polluting My sanctuary, The excellency of your strength, The desire of your eyes, and the pitied of your soul, And your sons and your daughters whom ye have left, by sword they do fall.
field: 26024022

22
And ye have done as I have done, On the upper lip ye are not covered, And bread of men ye do not eat.
field: 26024023
26
24
23
And your bonnets `are' on your heads, And your shoes `are' on your feet, Ye do not mourn nor do ye weep, And ye have wasted away for your iniquities, And ye have howled one unto another.

And thou, son of man, Is it not in the day of My taking from them their strength, The joy of their beauty, the desire of their eyes, And the song of their soul, Their sons and their daughters?

26

26
In that day come doth the escaped one to thee. To cause the ears to hear.
field: 26024027

27
In that day opened is thy mouth with the escaped, And thou speakest, and art not silent any more, And thou hast been to them for a type. And they have known that I `am' Jehovah.'

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26025002
26
25
2
`Son of man, set thy face unto the sons of Ammon, and prophesy against them;
field: 26025003
26
25
3
and thou hast said to the sons of Ammon: Hear ye a word of the Lord Jehovah: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of thy saying, Aha, to My sanctuary, Because it hath been polluted, And unto the ground of Israel, Because it hath been desolate, And unto the house of Judah, Because they have gone into a removal:
field: 26025004
26

Therefore, lo, I am giving thee to sons of the east for a possession, And they set their towers in thee, And have placed in thee their tabernacles. They eat thy fruit, and they drink thy milk,

And I have given Rabbah for a habitation of camels, And the sons of Ammon for the crouching of a flock, And ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.

For thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of thy clapping the hand, And of thy stamping with the foot, And thou rejoicest with all thy despite in soul Against the ground of Israel,
field: 26025007
26
25
7
Therefore, lo, I -- I have stretched out My hand against thee, And have given thee for a portion to nations, And I have cut thee off from the peoples, And caused thee to perish from the lands; I destroy thee, and thou hast known that I `am' Jehovah.
field: 26025008
26

Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of the saying of Moab and Seir: Lo, as all the nations `is' the house of Judah;
field: 26025009
26
25
9
Therefore, lo, I am opening the shoulder of Moab -- From the cities -- from his cities -- from his frontier, The beauty of the land, Beth-Jeshimoth, Baal-Meon, and Kiriathaim,

To the sons of the east, with the sons of Ammon, And I have given it for a possession, So that the sons of Ammon are not remembered among nations.

11
And in Moab I do judgments, And they have known that I `am' Jehovah.

Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of the doings of Edom, In taking vengeance on the house of Judah, Yea, they are very guilty, And they have taken vengeance on them.
field: 26025013
26
25
13
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have stretched out My hand against Edom, And I have cut off from it man and beast, And given it up -- a waste, from Teman even to Dedan, By sword they do fall.
field: 26025014
26
25
14
And I have given My vengeance on Edom, By the hand of My people Israel, And they have done in Edom, According to My anger, and according to My fury, And they have known My vengeance, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
field: 26025015

Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of the doings of the Philistines in vengeance, And they take vengeance with despite in soul, To destroy -- the enmity age-during!
field: 26025016
26
25
16
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am stretching out My hand against the Philistines, And I have cut off the Cherethim, And destroyed the remnant of the haven of the sea,
field: 26025017
26
25
17
And done upon them great vengeance with furious reproofs, And they have known that I `am' Jehovah, In My giving out My vengeance on them!

And it cometh to pass, in the eleventh year, in the first of the month, there hath been a word of Jehovah unto me, saying: `Son of man,

Because that Tyre hath said of Jerusalem: Aha, she hath been broken, the doors of the peoples, She hath turned round unto me, I am filled -- she hath been laid waste,
field: 26026003
26
26
3
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I `am' against thee, O Tyre, And have caused to come up against thee many nations, As the sea causeth its billows to come up.
field: 26026004
26
26
4
And they have destroyed the walls of Tyre, And they have broken down her towers, And I have scraped her dust from her, And made her for a clear place of a rock.
field: 26026005
26
26
5
A spreading place of nets she is in the midst of the sea, For I -- I have spoken -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, And she hath been for a spoil to nations.
field: 26026006
26
26
6
And her daughters who `are' in the field, by sword they are slain, And they have known that I `am' Jehovah,
field: 26026007
26
26
7
For, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am bringing in unto Tyre Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, From the north -- a king of kings, With horse, and with chariot, and with horsemen, Even an assembly, and a numerous people.
field: 26026008
26
26
8
Thy daughters in the field by sword he slayeth, And he hath made against thee a fort, And hath poured out against thee a mount, And hath raised against thee a buckler.
field: 26026009
26
26
9
And a battering-ram before him he placeth against thy walls, And thy towers he breaketh by his weapons.
field: 26026010
26
26
10
From the abundance of his horses cover thee doth their dust, From the noise of horseman, and wheel, and rider, Shake do thy walls, in his coming in to thy gates, As the coming into a city broken-up.
field: 26026011
26
26
11
With hoofs of his horses he treadeth all thine out-places, Thy people by sword he doth slay, And the pillars of thy strength to the earth come down.
field: 26026012
26
26
12
And they have spoiled thy wealth, And they have plundered thy merchandise, And they have thrown down thy walls, And thy desirable houses they break down, And thy stones, and thy wood, and thy dust, In the midst of the waters they place.
field: 26026013
26
26
13
And I have caused the noise of thy songs to cease, And the voice of thy harps is heard no more.
field: 26026014
26
26
14
And I have given thee up for a clear place of a rock, A spreading-place of nets thou art, Thou art not built up any more, For I, Jehovah, I have spoken, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
field: 26026015
26

Thus said the Lord Jehovah to Tyre: Do not -- from the noise of thy fall, In the groaning of the wounded, In the slaying of the slaughter in thy midst, The isles shake?
field: 26026016
26
26
16
And come down from off their thrones have all princes of the sea, And they have turned aside their robes, And their embroidered garments strip off, Trembling they put on, on the earth they sit, And they have trembled every moment, And they have been astonished at thee,
field: 26026017
26
26
17
And have lifted up for thee a lamentation, And said to thee: How hast thou perished, That art inhabited from the seas, The praised city, that was strong in the sea, She and her inhabitants, Who put their terror on all her inhabitants!
field: 26026018
26
26
18
Now they tremble, is it not the day of thy fall? Troubled have been the isles that `are' in the sea, at thine outgoing.
field: 26026019
26
26
19
For thus said the Lord Jehovah: In my making thee a city wasted, Like cities that have not been inhabited, In bringing up against thee the deep, Then covered thee have the great waters.
field: 26026020
26
26
20
And I have caused thee to go down, With those going down to the pit, Unto the people of old, And I have caused thee to dwell in the land, The lower parts -- in wastes of old, With those going down to the pit, So that thou art not inhabited, And I have given beauty in the land of the living.
field: 26026021
26
26

`Son of man, say to the leader of Tyre: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because thy heart hath been high, And thou dost say: A god I `am', The habitation of God I have inhabited, In the heart of the seas, And thou `art' man, and not God, And thou givest out thy heart as the heart of God,

Lo, thou `art' wiser than Daniel, No hidden thing have they concealed from thee.

From the abundance of thy iniquity, By the perversity of thy traffic, Thou hast polluted thy sanctuaries, And I bring forth fire from thy midst, It hath devoured thee, And I make thee become ashes on the earth, Before the eyes of all beholding thee.

`Son of man, set thy face unto Zidon, and prophesy concerning it;

`Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy concerning him, and concerning Egypt -- all of it.

And I have left thee in the wilderness, Thou and every fish of thy floods, On the face of the field thou dost fall, Thou art not gathered nor assembled, To the beast of the earth and to the fowl of the heavens I have given thee for food.

Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am bringing in against thee a sword, And have cut off from thee man and beast.

And the land of Egypt hath been for a desolation and a waste, And they have known that I `am' Jehovah. Because he said: The flood `is' mine, and I made `it'.

10
Therefore, lo, I `am' against thee, and against thy floods, And have given the land of Egypt for wastes, A waste, a desolation, from Migdol to Syene, And unto the border of Cush.

Not pass over into it doth a foot of man, Yea, the foot of beast doth not pass into it, Nor is it inhabited forty years.
field: 26029012

And I have made the land of Egypt a desolation, In the midst of desolate lands, And its cities, in the midst of waste cities, Are a desolation forty years, And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have dispersed them through lands.
field: 26029013

But thus said the Lord Jehovah: At the end of forty years I gather the Egyptians Out of the peoples whither they have been scattered,
field: 26029014
26

14
And I have turned back `to' the captivity of Egypt, And I have brought them back `To' the land of Pathros, to the land of their birth, And they have been there a low kingdom.
field: 26029015
26
29

Of the kingdoms it is lowest, And it lifteth not up itself any more above the nations, And I have made them few, So as not to rule among nations.

And it is no more to the house of Israel for a confidence, Bringing iniquity to remembrance, By their turning after them, And they have known that I `am' the Lord Jehovah.'

`Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, Hath caused his force to serve a great service against Tyre, Every head `is' bald -- every shoulder peeled, And reward he had none, nor his force, out of Tyre, For the service that he served against it.

Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah, Lo, I am giving to Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon the land of Egypt, And he hath taken away its store, And hath taken its spoil, and taken its prey, And it hath been a reward to his force.

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:

`Son of man, prophesy, and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Howl ye, ha! for the day!

For near `is' a day, near `is' a day to Jehovah! A day of clouds, the time of nations it is.

And come in hath a sword to Egypt, And there hath been great pain in Cush, In the falling of the wounded in Egypt, And they have taken its store, And broken down have been its foundations.

Cush, and Phut, and Lud, and all the mixture, and Chub, And the sons of the land of the covenant with them by sword do fall,

And they have been desolated in the midst of desolate lands, And its cities are in the midst of wasted cities.

He and his people with him -- the terrible of nations, Are brought in to destroy the land, And they have drawn their swords against Egypt, And have filled the land `with' the wounded.

And I have made floods a dry place, And I have sold the land into the hand of evil doers, And I have made desolate the land, And its fulness, by the hand of strangers, I, Jehovah, have spoken.

And I have poured out My fury on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt, And I have cut off the multitude of No.

And I have given fire against Egypt, Greatly pained is Sin, and No is to be rent, And Noph hath daily distresses.

The youths of Aven and Pi-Beseth by sword do fall, And these into captivity do go.

And in Tehaphnehes hath the day been dark, In My breaking there the yokes of Egypt, And ceased in her hath the excellency of her strength, She -- a cloud doth cover her, And her daughters into captivity do go.

Waters have made it great, The deep hath exalted him with its flowings, Going round about its planting, And its conduits it hath sent forth unto all trees of the field.
field: 26031005
26
31
5
Therefore higher hath been his stature than all trees of the field, And multiplied are his boughs, and long are his branches, Because of many waters in his shooting forth,

6
In his boughs made a nest hath every fowl of the heavens, And under his branches brought forth hath every beast of the field, And in his shade dwell do all great nations.

And he is fair in his greatness, In the length of his thin shoots, For his root hath been by great waters.

Cedars have not hid him in the garden of God, Firs have not been like unto his boughs, And chesnut-trees have not been as his branches, No tree in the garden of God hath been like unto him in his beauty,

Fair I have made him in the multitude of his thin shoots, And envy him do all trees of Eden that `are' in the garden of God.

Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because that thou hast been high in stature, And he yieldeth his foliage between thickets, And high is his heart in his haughtiness,

I give him into the hand of a god of nations, He dealeth sorely with him, In his wickedness I have cast him out.

12
And cut him off do strangers, The terrible of nations, and they leave him, On the mountains and in all valleys have his thin shoots fallen, And broken are his boughs at all streams of the land, And go down from his shade do all peoples of the land, and they leave him.

On his ruin dwell do all fowls of the heavens, And on his boughs have been all the beasts of the field,

14
In order that none of the trees of the waters May become haughty because of their stature, Nor give their foliage between thickets, Nor any drinking waters stand up unto them in their haughtiness, For all of them are given up to death, Unto the earth -- the lower part, In the midst of the sons of men, Unto those going down to the pit.

Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In the day of his going down to sheol I have caused mourning, I have covered for him the deep, and diminish its flowings, And restrained are many waters, And I make Lebanon black for him, And all trees of the field have been covered for him.
field: 26031016
26
31
16
From the sound of his fall I have caused nations to shake, In My causing him to go down to sheol, With those going down to the pit, And comforted in the earth -- the lower part, are all trees of Eden, The choice and the good of Lebanon, All drinking waters.
field: 26031017
26
31
17
Also they with him have gone down to sheol, Unto the pierced of the sword, And -- his arm -- they dwelt in his shade in the midst of nations.
field: 26031018
26
31
18
Unto whom hast thou been thus like, In honour and in greatness among the trees of Eden, And thou hast been brought down with the trees of Eden, Unto the earth -- the lower part, In the midst of the uncircumcised thou liest, With the pierced of the sword? It `is' Pharaoh, and all his multitude, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'

And it cometh to pass, in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, in the first of the month, hath a word of Jehovah been unto me, saying,
field: 26032002
26
32
2
`Son of man, lift up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and thou hast said unto him: A young lion of nations thou hast been like, And thou `art' as a dragon in the seas, And thou comest forth with thy flowings, And dost trouble the waters with thy feet, And thou dost foul their flowings.
field: 26032003
26

Thus said the Lord Jehovah: And -- I have spread out for thee My net, With an assembly of many peoples, And they have brought thee up in My net.
field: 26032004
26
32
4
And I have left thee in the land, On the face of the field I do cast thee out, And have caused to dwell upon thee every fowl of the heavens, And have satisfied out of thee the beasts of the whole earth.
field: 26032005
26
32
5
And I have put thy flesh on the mountains, And filled the valleys `with' thy hugeness,
field: 26032006
26
32
6
And watered the land with thy flowing, From thy blood -- unto the mountains, And streams are filled from thee.
field: 26032007
26
32
7
And in quenching thee I have covered the heavens, And have made black their stars, The sun with a cloud I do cover, And the moon causeth not its light to shine.
field: 26032008
26
32
8
All luminaries of light in the heavens, I make black over thee, And I have given darkness over thy land, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah,
field: 26032009
26
32
9
And I have vexed the heart of many peoples, In My bringing in thy destruction among nations, Unto lands that thou hast not known.
field: 26032010
26
32
10
And I have made many peoples astonished at thee, And their kings are afraid at thee with trembling, In My brandishing My sword before their faces, And they have trembled every moment, Each for his life -- in the day of thy fall.
field: 26032011
26
32
11
For thus said the Lord Jehovah: A sword of the king of Babylon entereth thee,
field: 26032012
26
32
12
By swords of the mighty I cause thy multitude to fall, The terrible of nations -- all of them, And they have spoiled the excellency of Egypt, And destroyed hath been all her multitude.
field: 26032013
26
32
13
And I have destroyed all her beasts, From beside many waters, And trouble them not doth a foot of man any more, Yea, the hoofs of beasts trouble them not.

Then do I cause their waters to sink, And their rivers as oil I cause to go, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

`Son of man, Wail for the multitude of Egypt, And cause it to go down, It -- and the daughters of honourable nations, Unto the earth -- the lower parts, With those going down to the pit.

`Son of man, speak unto the sons of thy people, and thou hast said unto them: A land -- when I bring in against it a sword, And the people of the land have taken one man out of their borders, And made him to them for a watchman.
field: 26033003
26
33
3
And he hath seen the sword coming against the land, And hath blown with a trumpet, and hath warned the people,
field: 26033004
26
33

And the hearer hath heard the voice of the trumpet, and he hath not taken warning, And come in doth the sword, and taketh him away, His blood is on his head.
field: 26033005
26

The voice of the trumpet he heard, And he hath not taken warning, his blood is on him, And he who took warning his soul hath delivered.

6
And the watchman, when he seeth the sword coming in, And he hath not blown with a trumpet, And the people hath not been warned, And come in doth a sword, And taketh away of them -- a soul, He in his iniquity is taken away, And his blood from the hand of the watchman I require.
field: 26033007

And thou, son of man, A watchman I gave thee to the house of Israel, And thou hast heard from My mouth a word, And thou hast warned them from Me.
field: 26033008
26
33
8
In My saying to the wicked, O wicked one -- thou dost surely die, And thou hast not spoken to warn the wicked from his way, He -- the wicked -- in his iniquity doth die, And his blood from thy hand I require.
field: 26033009
26

And thou, when thou hast warned the wicked of his way, to turn back from it, And he hath not turned back from his way, He in his iniquity doth die, And thou thy soul hast delivered.
field: 26033010
26

And thou, son of man, say unto the house of Israel: Rightly ye have spoken, saying: Surely our transgressions and our sins `are' on us, And in them we are wasting away, How, then, do we live?
field: 26033011
26
33
11
Say unto them, I live -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, I delight not in the death of the wicked, But -- in the turning of the wicked from his way, And he hath lived, Turn back, turn back, from your evil ways, Yea, why do ye die, O house of Israel?
field: 26033012
26
33
12
And thou, son of man, say unto the sons of thy people: The righteousness of the righteous doth not deliver him in the day of his transgression, And the wickedness of the wicked, He doth not stumble for it in the day of his turning from his wickedness, And the righteous is not able to live in it in the day of his sinning.
field: 26033013
26
33
13
In My saying of the righteous: He surely liveth, And -- he hath trusted on his righteousness, And he hath done perversity, All his righteous acts are not remembered, And for his perversity that he hath done, For it he doth die.
field: 26033014
26

And in My saying to the wicked: Thou surely diest, And -- he hath turned back from his sin, And hath done judgment and righteousness,
field: 26033015
26
33
15
(The pledge the wicked restoreth, plunder he repayeth,) In the statutes of life he hath walked, So as not to do perversity, He surely liveth -- he doth not die.
field: 26033016
26
33
16
None of his sin that he hath sinned is remembered to him, Judgment and righteousness he hath done, He doth surely live.

26
33
17
And the sons of thy people have said: The way of the Lord is not pondered, As to them -- their way is not pondered.
field: 26033018
26

18
In the turning back of the righteous from his righteousness, And he hath done perversity -- he dieth for it.

And in the turning back of the wicked from his wickedness, And he hath done judgment and righteousness, by them he liveth.

field: 26033022
26
33
22
And the hand of Jehovah hath been unto me in the evening, before the coming in of the escaped one, and He openeth my mouth till the coming in unto me in the morning, and opened is my mouth, and I have not been silent again.
field: 26033023

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26033024
26

24
`Son of man, the inhabitants of these wastes on the ground of Israel are speaking, saying: Alone hath been Abraham -- and he possesseth the land, and we `are' many -- to us hath the land been given for a possession.
field: 26033025
26

Therefore say unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: With the blood ye do eat, And your eyes ye lift up unto your idols, And blood ye shed, and the land ye inherit!
field: 26033026
26

26
Ye have stood on your sword, Ye have done abomination, Each the wife of his neighbour ye have defiled, And the land ye possess!

33
27
Thus dost thou say unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: I live -- do not they who `are' in the wastes by the sword fall? And they who `are' on the face of the field, To the beast I have given for food, And they who are in strongholds and in caves by pestilence die.
field: 26033028
26
33
28
And I have made the land a desolation and an astonishment, And ceased hath the excellency of its strength, And desolated have been mountains of Israel, Without any one passing through.
field: 26033029
26
33
29
And they have known that I `am' Jehovah, In My making the land a desolation and an astonishment, For all their abominations that they have done.
field: 26033030
26
33
30
And thou, son of man, the sons of thy people who are speaking about thee, By the walls, and in openings of the houses, Have spoken one with another, each with his brother, Saying: Come in, I pray you, And hear what `is' the word that cometh out from Jehovah.
field: 26033031
26
33
31
And they come in unto thee as the coming in of a people, And they sit before thee -- My people, And have heard thy words, and they do them not, For doting loves with their mouth they are making, After their dishonest gain their heart is going.
field: 26033032
26
33
32
And lo, thou `art' to them as a singer of doting loves, A pleasant voice, and playing well on an instrument, And they have heard thy words, and they are not doing them.
field: 26033033

And in its coming in -- lo, it hath come, And they have known that a prophet hath been in their midst!'

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26034002
26
34
2
`Son of man, prophesy concerning shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and thou hast said unto them: To the shepherds, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Wo `to' the shepherds of Israel, Who have been feeding themselves! The flock do not the shepherds feed?
field: 26034003
26
34
3
The fat ye do eat, and the wool ye put on, The fed one ye slaughter, the flock ye feed not.
field: 26034004
26
34
4
The weak ye have not strengthened, And the sick one ye have not healed, And the broken ye have not bound up, And the driven away have not brought back, And the lost ye have not sought, And with might ye have ruled them and with rigour.
field: 26034005
26
34
5
And they are scattered from want of a shepherd, And are for food to every beast of the field, Yea, they are scattered.
field: 26034006
26
34
6
Go astray do My flock on all the mountains, And on every high hill, And on all the face of the land have My flock been scattered, And there is none inquiring, and none seeking.
field: 26034007
26
34
7
Therefore, shepherds, hear a word of Jehovah:
field: 26034008
26
34
8
I live -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, If not, because of My flock being for a prey, Yea, My flock is for food to every beast of the field, Because there is no shepherd, And My shepherds have not sought My flock, And the shepherds do feed themselves, And My flock they have not fed.
field: 26034009
26
34
9
Therefore, O shepherds, hear a word of Jehovah:
field: 26034010
26
34
10
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I `am' against the shepherds, And have required My flock from their hand, And caused them to cease from feeding the flock, And no more do the shepherds feed themselves, And I have delivered My flock from their mouth, And they are not to them for food.
field: 26034011
26
34
11
For thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I -- even I, have required My flock, And I have sought it out.
field: 26034012
26
34
12
As a shepherd's searching of his drove, In the day of his being in the midst of his scattered flock, so I do seek My flock, And have delivered them out of all places, Whither they have been scattered, In a day of cloud and thick darkness.
field: 26034013
26
34
13
And brought them out from the peoples, And have gathered them from the lands, And brought them unto their own ground, And have fed them on mountains of Israel, By streams, and by all dwellings of the land.
field: 26034014
26
34
14
With good pasture I do feed them, And on mountains of the high place of Israel is their habitation, There do they lie down in a good habitation, And fat pastures they enjoy on mountains of Israel.
field: 26034015
26
34
15
I feed My flock, and cause them to lie down, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
field: 26034016
26
34
16
The lost I seek, and the driven away bring back, And the broken I bind up, and the sick I strengthen, And the fat and the strong I destroy, I feed it with judgment.
field: 26034017
26
34
17
And you, My flock, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am judging between sheep and sheep, Between rams and he-goats.
field: 26034018
26
34
18
Is it a little thing for you -- the good pasture ye enjoy, And the remnant of your pasture ye tread down with your feet, And a depth of waters ye do drink, And the remainder with your feet ye trample,
field: 26034019
26
34
19
And My flock the trodden thing of your feet consumeth, And the trampled thing of your feet drinketh?
field: 26034020
26
34
20
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah to them: Lo, I -- even I, have judged between fat sheep and lean sheep.
field: 26034021
26
34
21
Because with side and with shoulder ye thrust away, And with your horns push all the diseased, Till ye have scattered them to the out-place,
field: 26034022
26
34
22
And I have given safety to My flock, And they are not any more for prey, And I have judged between sheep and sheep.
field: 26034023
26
34
23
And have raised up over them one shepherd, And he hath fed them -- my servant David, He doth feed them, and he is their shepherd,
field: 26034024
26
34
24
And I, Jehovah, I am their God, And My servant David prince in their midst, I, Jehovah, have spoken.
field: 26034025
26
34
25
And I have made for them a covenant of peace, And caused evil beasts to cease out of the land, And they have dwelt in a wilderness confidently, And they have slept in forests.
field: 26034026
26
34
26
And I have given them, and the suburbs of my hill, a blessing, And caused the shower to come down in its season, Showers of blessing they are.
field: 26034027
26
34
27
And given hath the tree of the field its fruit, And the land doth give her increase, And they have been on their land confident, And they have known that I `am' Jehovah, In My breaking the bands of their yoke, And I have delivered them from the hand of those laying service on them.
field: 26034028

And they are no more a prey to nations, And the beast of the earth devoureth them not, And they have dwelt confidently, And there is none troubling.

And I have raised for them a plant for renown, And they are no more consumed by hunger in the land, And they bear no more the shame of the nations.

And I have given mount Seir for a desolation and an astonishment, And have cut off from it him who is passing over and him who is returning,

8
And filled his mountains with his wounded, Thy hills, and thy valleys, and all thy streams, The pierced of the sword fall into them.

Desolations age-during I make thee, And thy cities do not return, And ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.

Therefore, I live -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, And I have done according to thine anger, And according to thine envy, With which thou hast wrought, Because of thy hatred against them, And I have been known among them when I judge thee.

Therefore, O mountains of Israel, Hear a word of the Lord Jehovah: Thus said the Lord Jehovah, to mountains, and to hills, To streams, and to valleys, And to wastes that `are' desolate, And to cities that are forsaken, That have been for a prey, And for a scorn, to the remnant of the nations who `are' round about.
field: 26036005
26
36
5
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Have I not, in the fire of My jealousy, Spoken against the remnant of the nations, And against Edom -- all of it, Who gave My land to themselves for a possession, With the joy of the whole heart -- with despite of soul, For the sake of casting it out for a prey?
field: 26036006
26
36
6
Therefore, prophesy concerning the ground of Israel, And thou hast said to mountains, and to hills, To streams, and to valleys, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I, in My jealousy, and in My fury, I have spoken, Because the shame of nations ye have borne.
field: 26036007
26
36
7
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: I -- I have lifted up My hand, Do not -- the nations who `are' with you from round about -- they their own shame bear?
field: 26036008
26
36
8
And ye, O mountains of Israel, Your branch ye give out, and your fruits ye bear for My people Israel, For they have drawn near to come.
field: 26036009
26
36
9
For, lo, I `am' for you, and have turned to you, And ye have been tilled and sown.
field: 26036010
26
36
10
And I have multiplied on you men, All the house of Israel -- all of it, And the cities have been inhabited, And the wastes are built.
field: 26036011
26
36
11
And I have multiplied on you man and beast, And they have multiplied and been fruitful, And I have caused you to dwell according to your former states, And I have done better than at your beginnings, And ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.
field: 26036012
26
36
12
And I have caused man to walk over you, -- My people Israel, And they possess thee, and thou hast been to them for an inheritance, And thou dost add no more to bereave them.
field: 26036013
26
36
13
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because they are saying to you: A devourer of men `art' thou, And a bereaver of thy nations thou hast been,
field: 26036014
26
36
14
Therefore, man thou devourest no more, And thy nations thou causest not to stumble any more, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
field: 26036015
26
36
15
And I proclaim not unto thee any more the shame of the nations, And the reproach of peoples thou bearest no more, And thy nations stumble not any more, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'
field: 26036016
26
36
16
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26036017
26
36
17
`Son of man, The house of Israel are dwelling on their land, And they defile it by their way and by their doings, As the uncleanness of a separated one hath their way been before Me.
field: 26036018
26
36
18
And I do pour out My fury upon them For the blood that they shed on the land, And with their idols they have defiled it.
field: 26036019
26
36
19
And I scatter them among nations, And they are spread through lands, According to their way, and according to their doings, I have judged them.
field: 26036020
26
36
20
And one goeth in unto the nations whither they have gone, And they pollute My holy name by saying to them, The people of Jehovah `are' these, And from His land they have gone forth.
field: 26036021
26
36
21
And I have pity on My holy name, That the house of Israel have polluted among nations whither they have gone in.
field: 26036022
26
36
22
Therefore, say to the house of Israel, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Not for your sake am I working, O house of Israel, But -- for My holy name, That ye have polluted among nations whither ye have gone in.
field: 26036023
26
36
23
And I have sanctified My great name, That is profaned among nations, That ye have polluted in your midst, And known have the nations that I `am' Jehovah, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, In My being sanctified in you before your eyes.
field: 26036024
26
36
24
And I have taken you out of the nations, And have gathered you out of all the lands, And I have brought you in unto your land,
field: 26036025
26
36
25
And I have sprinkled over you clean water, And ye have been clean; From all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols, I do cleanse you.
field: 26036026
26
36
26
And I have given to you a new heart, And a new spirit I give in your midst, And I have turned aside the heart of stone out of your flesh, And I have given to you a heart of flesh.
field: 26036027
26
36
27
And My Spirit I give in your midst, And I have done this, so that in My statutes ye walk, And My judgments ye keep, and have done them.
field: 26036028
26
36
28
And ye have dwelt in the land that I have given to your fathers, And ye have been to Me for a people, And I -- I am to you for God.
field: 26036029
26
36
29
And I have saved you from all your uncleannesses, And I have called unto the corn, and multiplied it, And I have put no famine upon you.
field: 26036030
26
36
30
And I have multiplied the fruit of the tree, And the increase of the field, So that ye receive not any more a reproach of famine among nations.
field: 26036031
26
36
31
And ye have remembered your ways that `are' evil, And your doings that `are' not good, And have been loathsome in your own faces, For your iniquities, and for your abominations.
field: 26036032
26
36
32
Not for your sake am I working, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Be it known to you, Be ashamed and confounded, because of your ways, O house of Israel.
field: 26036033
26
36
33
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In the day of My cleansing you from all your iniquities, I have caused the cities to be inhabited, And the wastes have been built,
field: 26036034
26
36
34
And the desolate land is tilled, Instead of which it was a desolation before the eyes of every passer by,
field: 26036035
26
36
35
And they have said: This land, that was desolated, Hath been as the garden of Eden, And the cities -- the wasted, And the desolated, and the broken down, Fenced places have remained.
field: 26036036
26
36
36
And known have the nations who are left round about you, That I Jehovah have built the thrown down, I have planted the desolated: I Jehovah have spoken, and I have done `it'.
field: 26036037
26
36
37
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Yet this I am required, By the house of Israel to do to them, I multiply them as a flock of men,
field: 26036038
26
36
38
As a flock of holy ones, as a flock of Jerusalem, In her appointed seasons, So are the waste cities full of flocks of men, And they have known that I `am' Jehovah!'
field: 26037001
26
37
1
There hath been upon me a hand of Jehovah, and He taketh me forth in the Spirit of Jehovah, and doth place me in the midst of the valley, and it is full of bones,
field: 26037002
26
37
2
and He causeth me to pass over by them, all round about, and lo, very many `are' on the face of the valley, and lo, very dry.
field: 26037003
26
37
3
And He saith unto me, `Son of man, do these bones live?' And I say, `O Lord Jehovah, Thou -- Thou hast known.'
field: 26037004
26
37
4
And He saith unto me, `Prophesy concerning these bones, and thou hast said unto them: O dry bones, hear a word of Jehovah:
field: 26037005
26
37
5
Thus said the Lord Jehovah to these bones: Lo, I am bringing into you a spirit, and ye have lived,
field: 26037006
26
37
6
and I have given on you sinews, and cause flesh to come up upon you, and covered you over with skin, and given in you a spirit, and ye have lived, and ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.'
field: 26037007
26
37
7
And I have prophesied as I have been commanded, and there is a noise, as I am prophesying, and lo, a rushing, and draw near do the bones, bone unto its bone.
field: 26037008
26
37
8
And I beheld, and lo, on them `are' sinews, and flesh hath come up, and cover them doth skin over above -- and spirit there is none in them.
field: 26037009
26
37
9
And He saith unto me: `Prophesy unto the Spirit, prophesy, son of man, and thou hast said unto the Spirit: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: From the four winds come in, O Spirit, and breathe on these slain, and they do live.'
field: 26037010
26
37
10
And I have prophesied as He commanded me, and the Spirit cometh into them, and they live, and stand on their feet -- a very very great force.
field: 26037011
26
37
11
And He saith unto me, `Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; lo, they are saying: Dried up have our bones, And perished hath our hope, We have been cut off by ourselves.
field: 26037012
26
37
12
Therefore, prophesy, and thou hast said unto them, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am opening your graves, And have brought you up out of your graves, O My people, And brought you in unto the land of Israel.
field: 26037013
26
37
13
And ye have known that I `am' Jehovah, In My opening your graves, And in My bringing you up out of your graves, O My people.
field: 26037014
26
37
14
And I have given My Spirit in you, and ye have lived, And I have caused you to rest on your land, And ye have known that I Jehovah, I have spoken, and I have done `it', An affirmation of Jehovah.'
field: 26037015
26
37
15
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
field: 26037016
26
37
16
`And thou, son of man, take to thee one stick, and write on it, For Judah, and for the sons of Israel, his companions; and take another stick, and write on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and all the house of Israel, his companions,
field: 26037017
26
37
17
and bring them near one unto another, to thee, for one stick, and they have become one in thy hand.

26
37
18
`And when sons of thy people speak unto thee, saying, Dost thou not declare to us what these `are' to thee?
field: 26037019
26
37
19
Speak unto them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am taking the stick of Joseph, that `is' in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions, and have given them unto him, with the stick of Judah, and have made them become one stick, and they have been one in My hand.
field: 26037020
26
37
20
And the sticks on which thou writest have been in thy hand before thine eyes,
field: 26037021
26
37
21
and speak thou unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am taking the sons of Israel, From among the nations whither they have gone, And have gathered them from round about, And I have brought them in unto their land.
field: 26037022
26
37
22
And I have made them become one nation in the land, on mountains of Israel, And one king is to them all for king, And they are no more as two nations, Nor are they divided any more into two kingdoms again.
field: 26037023
26
37
23
Nor are they defiled any more with their idols, And with their abominations, And with any of their transgressions, And I have saved them out of all their dwellings, In which they have sinned, And I have cleansed them, And they have been to Me for a people, And I -- I am to them for God.
field: 26037024
26
37
24
And My servant David `is' king over them, And one shepherd have they all, And in My judgments they go, And My statutes they keep, and have done them.
field: 26037025
26
37
25
And they have dwelt on the land that I gave to My servant, to Jacob, In which your fathers have dwelt, And they have dwelt on it, they and their sons, And their son's sons -- unto the age, And David My servant `is' their prince -- to the age.
field: 26037026
26
37
26
And I have made to them a covenant of peace, A covenant age-during it is with them, And I have placed them, and multiplied them, And placed My sanctuary in their midst -- to the age.

`Son of man, set thy face unto Gog, of the land of Magog, prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy concerning him,

And I have turned thee back, And I have put hooks in thy jaws, And have brought thee out, and all thy force, Horses and horsemen, Clothed in perfection all of them, A numerous assembly, `with' buckler and shield, Handling swords -- all of them.

7
Be prepared, yea, prepare for thee, Thou and all thine assemblies who are assembled unto thee, And thou hast been to them for a guard.
field: 26038008
26
38
8
After many days thou art appointed, In the latter end of the years thou comest in unto a land brought back from sword, `A people' gathered out of many peoples, Upon mountains of Israel, That have been for a perpetual waste, And it from the peoples hath been brought out, And dwelt safely have all of them.
field: 26038009
26

And thou hast gone up -- as wasting thou comest in, As a cloud to cover the land art thou, Thou and all thy bands, and many peoples with thee.
field: 26038010

Thus said the Lord Jehovah: And it hath come to pass in that day, Come up do things on thy heart, And thou hast thought an evil thought,

26
38
11
And thou hast said: I go up against a land of unwalled villages, I go in to those at rest, dwelling confidently, All of them are dwelling without walls, And bar and doors they have not.
field: 26038012
26
38
12
To take a spoil, and to take a prey, To turn back thy hand on inhabited wastes, And on a people gathered out of nations, Making cattle and substance, Dwelling on a high part of the land.
field: 26038013
26
38
13
Sheba, and Dedan, and merchants of Tarshish, And all its young lions say to thee: To take a spoil art thou come in? To take a prey assembled thine assembly? To bear away silver and gold? To take away cattle and substance? To take a great spoil?
field: 26038014
26
38
14
Therefore, prophesy, son of man, and thou hast said to Gog: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In that day, in the dwelling of My people Israel safely, Dost thou not know?
field: 26038015
26
38
15
And thou hast come in out of thy place, From the sides of the north, Thou and many peoples with thee, Riding on horses -- all of them, A great assembly, and a numerous force.
field: 26038016
26
38
16
And thou hast come up against My people Israel, As a cloud to cover the land, In the latter end of the days it is, And I have brought thee in against My land, In order that the nations may know Me, In My being sanctified in thee before their eyes, O Gog.
field: 26038017
26
38
17
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Art thou he of whom I spake in former days, By the hand of My servants, prophets of Israel, Who are prophesying in those days -- years, To bring thee in against them?

26
38

And it hath come to pass, in that day, In the day of the coming in of Gog against the land of Israel, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Come up doth My fury in My face,
field: 26038019
26
38
19
And in My zeal, in the fire of My wrath, I have spoken: Is there not in that day a great rushing on the land of Israel?
field: 26038020
26
38
20
And rushed from My presence have fishes of the sea, And the fowl of the heavens, And the beast of the field, And every creeping thing that is creeping on the ground, And all men who `are' on the face of the ground, And thrown down have been the mountains, And fallen have the ascents, And every wall to the earth falleth.
field: 26038021
26

21
And I have called against him, to all My mountains a sword, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, The sword of each is against his brother.
field: 26038022

38
22
And I have been judged with him, With pestilence and with blood, And an overflowing rain and hailstones, Fire and brimstone I rain on him, and on his bands, And on many peoples who `are' with him.
field: 26038023
26

And thou, son of man, prophesy concerning Gog, and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I `am' against thee, O Gog, Prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal,
field: 26039002
26
39
2
And have turned thee back, and enticed thee, And caused thee to come up from the sides of the north, And brought thee in against mountains of Israel,
field: 26039003
26
39
3
And have smitten thy bow out of thy left hand, Yea, thine arrows out of thy right I cause to fall.
field: 26039004
26

On mountains of Israel thou fallest, Thou, and all thy bands, and the peoples who `are' with thee, To ravenous fowl -- a bird of every wing, And `to' a beast of the field, I have given thee for food.

On the face of the field thou fallest, for I have spoken, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

And My holy name I make known in the midst of My people Israel, And I pollute not My holy name any more, And known have the nations that I, Jehovah, the Holy One, `am' in Israel.

Lo, it hath come, and it hath been done, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, It `is' the day of which I spake.

And gone out have the inhabitants of cities of Israel, And they have burned and kindled `a fire', With armour, and shield, and buckler, With bow, and with arrows, And with hand-staves, and with javelins, And they have caused a fire to burn with them seven years,
field: 26039010

And they do not take wood out of the field, Nor do they hew out of the forests, For with armour they cause the fire to burn, And they have spoiled their spoilers, And they have plundered their plunderers, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
field: 26039011
26
39
11
And it hath come to pass, in that day, I give to Gog a place there -- a grave in Israel, the valley of those passing by, east of the sea, and it is stopping those passing by, and they have buried there Gog, and all his multitude, and have cried, O valley of the multitude of Gog!
field: 26039012
26
39
12
And the house of Israel have buried them -- in order to cleanse the land -- seven months.

39
13
Yea, all the people of the land have buried them, and it hath been to them for a name -- the day of My being honoured -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
field: 26039014
26
39
14
And men for continual employment they separate, passing on through the land, burying with those passing by those who are left on the face of the earth, to cleanse it: at the end of seven months they search.
field: 26039015
26
39
15
And those passing by have passed through the land, and seen a bone of man, and one hath constructed near it a sign till those burying have buried it in the valley of the multitude of Gog.
field: 26039016

39
16
And also the name of the city `is' The multitude; and they have cleansed the land.
field: 26039017

39
17
And thou, son of man, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Say to the bird -- every wing, and to every beast of the field: Be assembled and come in, Be gathered from round about, For My sacrifice that I am sacrificing for you, A great sacrifice on mountains of Israel, And ye have eaten flesh, and drunk blood.
field: 26039018
26
39
18
Flesh of the mighty ye do eat, And blood of princes of the earth ye drink, Of rams, of lambs, and of he-goats, Of calves, fatlings of Bashan -- all of them.
field: 26039019
26
39
19
And ye have eaten fat to satiety, And ye have drunk blood -- to drunkenness, Of My sacrifice that I sacrificed for you.
field: 26039020
26
39
20
And ye have been satisfied at My table with horse and rider, Mighty man, and every man of war, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
field: 26039021
26
39
21
And I have given My honour among nations, And seen have all the nations My Judgment that I have done, And My hand that I have laid on them.
field: 26039022
26
39
22
And known have the house of Israel that I `am' Jehovah their God, From that day and henceforth.
field: 26039023
26
39
23
And known have the nations that for their iniquity, Removed have the house of Israel, Because they have trespassed against Me, And I do hide My face from them, And give them into the hand of their adversaries, And they fall by sword -- all of them.
field: 26039024
26
39
24
According to their uncleanness, And according to their transgressions, I have done with them, And I do hide My face from them.
field: 26039025
26
39
25
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Now do I bring back the captivity of Jacob, And I have pitied all the house of Israel, And have been zealous for My holy name.
field: 26039026
26
39
26
And they have forgotten their shame, And all their trespass that they trespassed against Me, In their dwelling on their land confidently and none troubling.
field: 26039027
26
39
27
In My bringing them back from the peoples, I have assembled them from the lands of their enemies, And I have been sanctified in them before the eyes of the many nations,
field: 26039028
26
39
28
And they have known that I `am' Jehovah their God, In My removing them unto the nations, And I have gathered them unto their land, And I leave none of them any more there.

In the twenty and fifth year of our removal, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, in this self-same day hath a hand of Jehovah been upon me, and He bringeth me in thither;

and the man speaketh unto me: `Son of man, see with thine eyes, And with thine ears hear, And set thy heart to all that I am shewing thee, For, in order to shew `it' thee, Thou hast been brought in hither, Declare all that thou art seeing to the house of Israel.'

And lo, a wall on the outside of the house all round about, and in the hand of the man a measuring-reed, six cubits by a cubit and a handbreadth, and he measureth the breadth of the building one reed, and the height one reed.

And he measureth the breadth of the opening of the gate ten cubits, the length of the gate thirteen cubits;

26
40
14
And he maketh the posts of sixty cubits, even unto the post of the court, the gate all round about;

And he bringeth me in unto the outer court, and lo, chambers and a pavement made for the court all round about -- thirty chambers on the pavement --
field: 26040018
26
40
18
and the pavement unto the side of the gates over-against the length of the gates `is' the lower pavement;

and he measureth the breadth from before the lower gate, to the front of the inner court, on the outside, a hundred cubits, eastward and northward.
field: 26040020
26
40
20
As to the gate of the outer court whose front `is' northward, he hath measured its length and its breadth;

26
40
21
and its little chambers, three on this side, and three on that side, and its posts and its arches have been according to the measure of the first gate, fifty cubits its length, and the breadth five and twenty by the cubit;

40
24
And he causeth me to go southward, and lo, a gate southward, and he hath measured its posts and its arches according to these measures;

and windows `are' to it and to its arches all round about, like these windows, fifty cubits the length, and the breadth five and twenty cubits;

its little chambers, its posts, and its arches; and windows `are' to it all round about: the length fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits;

40
38
And the chamber and its opening `is' by the posts of the gates, there they purge the burnt-offering.
field: 26040039
26
40
39
And in the porch of the gate `are' two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slaughter on them the burnt-offering, and the sin-offering, and the guilt-offering;

26
40

and at the side without, at the going up to the opening of the north gate, `are' two tables; and at the other side that `is' at the porch of the gate, `are' two tables;

41
four tables `are' on this side, and four tables on that side, at the side of the gate, eight tables on which they slaughter.

And the four tables for burnt-offering `are' of hewn stone: the length one cubit and a half, and the breadth one cubit and a half, and the height one cubit: on them they place the instruments with which they slaughter the burnt-offering and the sacrifice.

And the boundaries `are' one handbreadth, prepared within all round about: and on the tables `is' the flesh of the offering.

And on the outside of the inner gate `are' chambers of the singers, in the inner court, that `are' at the side of the north gate, and their fronts `are' southward, one at the side of the east gate `hath' the front northward.
field: 26040045
26
40
45
And he speaketh unto me: `This chamber, whose front `is' southward, `is' for priests keeping charge of the house;
field: 26040046
26
40
46
and the chamber, whose front `is' northward, `is' for priests keeping charge of the altar: they `are' sons of Zadok, who are drawing near of the sons of Levi unto Jehovah, to serve Him.'
field: 26040047
26
40
47
And he measureth the court: the length a hundred cubits, and the breadth a hundred cubits, square, and the altar `is' before the house.
field: 26040048
26
40
48
And he bringeth me in unto the porch of the house, and he measureth the post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side, and the breadth of the gate, three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side;
field: 26040049
26
40
49
the length of the porch twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; and by the steps whereby they go up unto it: and pillars `are' at the posts, one on this side, and one on that side.
field: 26041001
26
41
1
And he bringeth me in unto the temple, and he measureth the posts, six cubits the breadth on this side, and six cubits the breadth on that side -- the breadth of the tent.
field: 26041002
26
41
2
And the breadth of the opening `is' ten cubits; and the sides of the opening `are' five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side; and he measureth its length forty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.
field: 26041003
26
41
3
And he hath gone inward, and measureth the post of the opening two cubits, and the opening six cubits, and the breadth of the opening seven cubits.
field: 26041004
26
41
4
And he measureth its length twenty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits, unto the front of the temple, and he saith unto me, `This `is' the holy of holies.'
field: 26041005
26
41
5
And he measureth the wall of the house six cubits, and the breadth of the side-chamber four cubits, all round the house round about.
field: 26041006
26
41
6
And the side-chambers `are' side-chamber by side-chamber, three and thirty times; and they are entering into the wall -- which the house hath for the side-chambers all round about -- to be taken hold of, and they are not taken hold of by the wall of the house.
field: 26041007
26
41
7
And a broad place and a turning place still upwards `are' to the side-chambers, for the turning round of the house `is' still upwards all round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house `is' upwards, and so the lower one goeth up unto the higher by the midst.
field: 26041008
26
41
8
And I have looked at the house, the height all round about: the foundations of the side-chambers `are' the fulness of the reed, six cubits by the joining.
field: 26041009
26
41
9
The breadth of the wall that `is' to the side-chamber at the outside `is' five cubits; and that which is left `is' the place of the side-chambers that `are' to the house.
field: 26041010
26
41
10
And between the chambers `is' a breadth of twenty cubits round about the house, all round about.
field: 26041011
26
41
11
And the opening of the side-chamber `is' to the place left, one opening northward, and one opening southward, and the breadth of the place that is left `is' five cubits all round about.
field: 26041012
26
41
12
As to the building that `is' at the front of the separate place `at' the corner westward, the breadth `is' seventy cubits, and the wall of the building five cubits broad all round about, and its length ninety cubits.
field: 26041013
26
41
13
And he hath measured the house, the length `is' a hundred cubits; and the separate place, and the building, and its walls, the length `is' a hundred cubits;
field: 26041014
26
41
14
and the breadth of the front of the house, and of the separate place eastward, a hundred cubits.
field: 26041015
26
41
15
And he hath measured the length of the building unto the front of the separate place that `is' at its hinder part, and its galleries on this side and on that side, a hundred cubits, and the inner temple and the porches of the court,
field: 26041016
26
41
16
the thresholds, and the narrow windows, and the galleries round about them three, over-against the threshold, a ceiling of wood all round about, and the ground unto the windows and the covered windows,
field: 26041017
26
41
17
over above the opening, and unto the inner-house, and at the outside, and by all the wall all round about within and without `by' measure.
field: 26041018
26
41
18
And it is made `with' cherubs and palm-trees, and a palm-tree `is' between cherub and cherub, and two faces `are' to the cherub;
field: 26041019
26
41
19
and the face of man `is' unto the palm-tree on this side, and the face of a young lion unto the palm-tree on that side; it is made unto all the house all round about.
field: 26041020
26
41
20
from the earth unto above the opening `are' the cherubs and the palm-trees made, and `on' the wall of the temple.
field: 26041021
26
41
21
Of the temple the side post `is' square, and of the front of the sanctuary, the appearance `is' as the appearance.
field: 26041022
26
41
22
Of the altar, the wood `is' three cubits in height, and its length two cubits; and its corners `are' to it, and its length, and its walls `are' of wood, and he speaketh unto me, `This `is' the table that `is' before Jehovah.'
field: 26041023
26
41
23
And two doors `are' to the temple and to the sanctuary;
field: 26041024
26
41
24
and two leaves `are' to the doors, two turning leaves `are' to the doors, two to the one door, and two leaves to the other.
field: 26041025
26
41
25
And made on them, on the doors of the temple, `are' cherubs and palm-trees as are made on the walls, and a thickness of wood `is' at the front of the porch on the outside.
field: 26041026
26
41
26
And narrow windows and palm-trees `are' on this side, and on that side, at the sides of the porch, and the side-chambers of the house, and the thick places.
field: 26042001
26
42
1
And he bringeth me forth unto the outer court, the way northward, and he bringeth me in unto the chamber that `is' over-against the separate place, and that `is' over-against the building at the north.
field: 26042002
26
42
2
At the front of the length `is' a hundred cubits `at' the north opening, and the breadth fifty cubits.
field: 26042003
26
42
3
Over-against the twenty `cubits' that are to the inner court, and over-against the pavement that `is' to the outer court, `is' gallery over-against gallery, in the three `storeys'.
field: 26042004
26
42
4
And at the front of the chambers `is' a walk of ten cubits in breadth unto the inner part, a way of one cubit, and their openings `are' at the north.
field: 26042005
26
42
5
And the upper chambers `are' short, for the galleries contain more than these, than the lower, and than the middle one, of the building;
field: 26042006
26
42
6
for they `are' threefold, and they have no pillars as the pillars of the court, therefore it hath been kept back -- more than the lower and than the middle one -- from the ground.
field: 26042007
26
42
7
As to the wall that `is' at the outside, over-against the chambers, the way of the outer-court at the front of the chambers, its length `is' fifty cubits;
field: 26042008
26
42
8
for the length of the chambers that `are' to the outer court `is' fifty cubits, and of those on the front of the temple a hundred cubits.
field: 26042009
26
42
9
And under these chambers `is' the entrance from the east, in one's going into them from the outer court.
field: 26042010
26
42
10
In the breadth of the wall of the court eastward, unto the front of the separate place, and unto the front of the building, `are' chambers.
field: 26042011
26
42
11
And the way before them `is' as the appearance of the chambers that `are' northward, according to their length so `is' their breadth, and all their outlets, and according to their fashions, and according to their openings.
field: 26042012
26
42
12
And according to the openings of the chambers that `are' southward `is' an opening at the head of the way, the way directly in the front of the wall eastward in entering them.
field: 26042013
26
42
13
And he saith unto me, `The north chambers, the south chambers, that `are' at the front of the separate place, they `are' holy chambers, where the priests (who `are' near to Jehovah) eat the most holy things, there they place the most holy things, and the present, and the sin-offering, and the guilt-offering, for the place `is' holy.
field: 26042014
26
42
14
In the priests' going in, they come not out from the sanctuary unto the outer court, and there they place their garments with which they minister, for they `are' holy, and have put on other garments, and have drawn near unto that which `is' for the people.'
field: 26042015
26
42
15
And he hath finished the measurements of the inner house, and hath brought me forth the way of the gate whose front `is' eastward, and he hath measured it all round about.
field: 26042016
26
42
16
He hath measured the east side with the measuring-reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring-reed round about.
field: 26042017
26
42
17
He hath measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
field: 26042018
26
42
18
The south side he hath measured, five hundred reeds, with the measuring-reed.
field: 26042019
26
42
19
He hath turned round unto the west side, he hath measured five hundred reeds with the measuring-reed.
field: 26042020
26
42
20
At the four sides he hath measured it, a wall `is' to it all round about, the length five hundred, and the breadth five hundred, to separate between the holy and the profane place.
field: 26043001
26
43
1
And he causeth me to go to the gate, the gate that is looking eastward.
field: 26043002
26
43
2
And lo, the honour of the God of Israel hath come from the way of the east, and His voice `is' as the noise of many waters, and the earth hath shone from His honour.
field: 26043003
26
43
3
And according to the appearance `is' the appearance that I saw, as the appearance that I saw in my coming in to destroy the city, and the appearances `are' as the appearance that I saw at the river Chebar, and I fall on my face.
field: 26043004
26
43
4
And the honour of Jehovah hath come in unto the house, the way of the gate whose face `is' eastward.
field: 26043005
26
43
5
And take me up doth the Spirit, and bringeth me in unto the inner court, and lo, the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house.
field: 26043006
26
43
6
And I hear one speaking unto me from the house, and a man hath been standing near me,
field: 26043007
26
43
7
and He saith unto 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 sons of Israel to the age, Defile no more do the house of Israel My holy name, They, and their kings, by their whoredom, And by the carcases of their kings -- their high places.
field: 26043008
26
43
8
In their putting their threshold with My threshold, And their door-post near My door-post, And the wall between Me and them, And they have defiled My holy name, By their abominations that they have done, And I consume them in Mine anger.
field: 26043009
26
43
9
Now do they put far off their whoredom, And the carcases of their kings -- from Me, And I have dwelt in their midst to the age.
field: 26043010
26
43
10
Thou, son of man, Shew the house of Israel the house, And they are ashamed of their iniquities, And they have measured the measurement.
field: 26043011
26
43
11
And since they have been ashamed of all that they have done, The form of the house, and its measurement, And its outlets, and its inlets, and all its forms, And all its statutes, even all its forms, And all its laws cause them to know, And write `it' before their eyes, And they observe all its forms, And all its statutes, and have done them.
field: 26043012
26
43
12
This `is' a law of the house: on the top of the mountain, all its border all round about `is' most holy; lo, this `is' a law of the house.
field: 26043013
26
43
13
`And these `are' measures of the altar by cubits: The cubit `is' a cubit and a handbreadth, and the centre `is' a cubit, and a cubit the breadth; and its border on its edge round about `is' one span, and this `is' the upper part of the altar.
field: 26043014
26
43
14
And from the centre of the ground unto the lower border `is' two cubits, and the breadth one cubit, and from the lesser border unto the greater border four cubits, and the breadth a cubit.
field: 26043015
26
43
15
`And the altar `is' four cubits, and from the altar and upward `are' four horns.
field: 26043016
26
43
16
And the altar `is' twelve long by twelve broad, square in its four squares.
field: 26043017
26
43
17
And the border `is' fourteen long by fourteen broad, at its four squares, and the border round about it `is' half a cubit, and the centre to it `is' a cubit round about, and its steps are looking eastward.'
field: 26043018
26
43
18
And He saith unto me, `Son of man, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: These `are' statutes of the altar in the day of its being made to cause burnt-offering to go up on it, and to sprinkle on it blood.
field: 26043019
26
43
19
And thou hast given unto the priests, the Levites, who `are' of the seed of Zadok -- who are near unto Me, an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, to serve Me -- a calf from the herd, for a sin-offering.
field: 26043020
26
43
20
And thou hast taken of its blood, and hast put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of its border, and on the border round about, and hast cleansed it, and purified it.
field: 26043021
26
43
21
And thou hast taken the bullock of the sin-offering, and hast burnt it in the appointed place of the house at the outside of the sanctuary.
field: 26043022
26
43
22
And on the second day thou dost bring near a kid of the goats, a perfect one, for a sin-offering, and they have cleansed the altar, as they cleansed `it' for the bullock.
field: 26043023
26
43
23
In thy finishing cleansing, thou dost bring near a calf, a son of the herd, a perfect one, and a ram out of the flock, a perfect one.
field: 26043024
26
43
24
And thou hast brought them near before Jehovah, and the priests have cast upon them salt, and have caused them to go up, a burnt-offering to Jehovah.
field: 26043025
26
43
25
Seven days thou dost prepare a goat for a sin-offering daily, and a bullock, a son of the herd, and a ram out of the flock, perfect ones, do they prepare.
field: 26043026
26
43
26
Seven days they purify the altar, and have cleansed it, and filled their hand.

And the days are completed, and it hath come to pass on the eighth day, and henceforth, the priests prepare on the altar your burnt-offerings and your peace-offerings, and I have accepted you -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'

And he causeth me to turn back the way of the gate of the outer sanctuary that is looking eastward, and it is shut.
field: 26044002
26
44

And Jehovah saith unto me, `This gate is shut, it is not opened, and none doth go in by it, for Jehovah, God of Israel, hath come in by it, and it hath been shut.

The prince, who `is' prince, he sitteth by it to eat bread before Jehovah, by the way of the porch of the gate he cometh in, and by its way he goeth out.'

And he bringeth me in the way of the north gate unto the front of the house, and I look, and lo, filled hath the honour of Jehovah the house of Jehovah, and I fall on my face.

And Jehovah saith unto me, `Son of man, set thy heart, and see with thine eyes, and with thine ears hear, all that I am speaking with thee, of all the statutes of the house of Jehovah, and of all its laws; and thou hast set thy heart to the entrance of the house, with all the outlets of the sanctuary,
field: 26044006
26
44
6
and hast said unto the rebellious, unto the house of Israel: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Enough to you -- of all your abominations, O house of Israel.
field: 26044007
26
44
7
In your bringing in sons of a stranger, uncircumcised of heart, and uncircumcised of flesh, to be in My sanctuary, to pollute it, even My house, in your bringing near My bread, fat, and blood, and they break My covenant by all your abominations,
field: 26044008
26
44
8
and ye have not kept the charge of My holy things, and ye set `them' for keepers of My charge in My sanctuary for you.
field: 26044009
26

`Thus said the Lord Jehovah: No son of a stranger, uncircumcised of heart, and uncircumcised of flesh, cometh in unto My sanctuary, even any son of a stranger, who `is' in the midst of the sons of Israel,

26

10
but -- the Levites who have gone far off from me, in the wandering of Israel when they went astray from Me after their idols, and they have borne their iniquity.
field: 26044011
26
44
11
And they have been in My sanctuary ministrants, overseers at the gates of the house, and ministrants at the house; they slay the burnt-offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they stand before them to serve them.
field: 26044012
26
44
12
Because that they serve them before their idols, and have been to the house of Israel for a stumbling-block of iniquity, therefore I have lifted up my hand against them -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah -- and they have borne their iniquity.
field: 26044013
26
44
13
And they draw not nigh unto Me to act as My priest, and to draw nigh unto any of My holy things, unto the holy of holies, and they have borne their shame and their abominations that they have done,
field: 26044014
26
44
14
and I made them keepers of the charge of the house, for all its service and for all that is done in it.
field: 26044015
26
44
15
`And the priests, the Levites, sons of Zadok, who have kept the charge of My sanctuary in the wandering of the sons of Israel from off Me, they draw near unto Me to serve Me, and have stood before Me, to bring near to Me fat and blood -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah:
field: 26044016
26
44
16
they come in unto My sanctuary, and they draw near unto My table to serve Me, and they have kept My charge.
field: 26044017
26
44
17
And it hath come to pass, in their going in unto the gates of the inner court, linen garments they put on; and no wool cometh up on them in their ministering in the gates of the inner court and within.
field: 26044018
26
44
18
Linen bonnets are on their head, and linen trousers are on their loins, they are not restrained with sweat.
field: 26044019
26
44
19
And in their going forth unto the outer court -- unto the outer court unto the people -- they strip off their garments, in which they are ministering, and have placed them in the holy chambers, and have put on other garments; and they do not sanctify the people in their own garments.
field: 26044020
26
44
20
And their head they do not shave, and the lock they do not send forth; they certainly poll their heads.

And no priest doth drink wine in their coming in unto the inner court.
field: 26044022

22
And a widow and divorced woman they do not take to them for wives: but -- virgins of the seed of the house of Israel, and the widow who is widow of a priest, do they take.

`And My people they direct between holy and common, and between unclean and clean they cause them to discern.

24
And concerning controversy, they stand up for judgment; with My judgments they judge it; and My law and My statutes in all My appointed places they keep; and My sabbaths they sanctify.
field: 26044025
26
44
25
And unto any dead man they come not for uncleanness, but for father, and for mother, and for son, and for daughter, for brother, for sister who hath not been to a man, they defile themselves.

`And after his cleansing, seven days they number to him.

And in the day of his coming in unto the sanctuary, unto the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he bringeth near his sin-offering -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

And it hath been to them for an inheritance; I `am' their inheritance: and a possession ye do not give to them in Israel; I `am' their possession.

The present, and the sin-offering, and the guilt-offering, they do eat, and every devoted thing in Israel is theirs.

And the first of all the first-fruits of all, and every heave-offering of all, of all your heave-offerings, are the priests': and the first of your dough ye give to the priest, to cause a blessing to rest on thy house.

Any carcase and torn thing, of the fowl, and of the beasts, the priests do not eat.

And in your causing the land to fall in inheritance, ye lift up a heave-offering to Jehovah, a holy `portion' of the land: the length -- five and twenty thousand `is' the length, and the breadth ten thousand; it `is' holy in all its border round about.
field: 26045002
26

There is of this for the sanctuary five hundred by five hundred, square, round about; and fifty cubits of suburb `is' to it round about.

And by this measure thou dost measure: the length `is' five and twenty thousand, and the breadth ten thousand: and in it is the sanctuary, the holy of holies.
field: 26045004
26

The holy `portion' of the land it `is'; for priests, ministrants of the sanctuary, it is, who are drawing near to serve Jehovah; and it hath been to them a place for houses, and a holy place for a sanctuary.

`And of the five and twenty thousand of length, and of the ten thousand of breadth, there is to the Levites, ministrants of the house, for them -- for a possession -- twenty chambers.

Just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath -- ye have.

All the people of the land are at this heave-offering for the prince in Israel.

17
And on the prince are the burnt-offerings, and the present, and the libation, in feasts, and in new moons, and in sabbaths, in all appointed times of the house of Israel: he doth make the sin-offering, and the present, and the burnt-offering, and the peace-offerings, to make atonement for the house of Israel.

`Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In the first `month', in the first of the month, thou dost take a bullock, a son of the herd, a perfect one, and hast cleansed the sanctuary:

19
and the priest hath taken of the blood of the sin offering, and hath put on the door-post of the house, and on the four corners of the border of the altar, and on the post of the gate of the inner court.

And so thou dost do on the seventh of the month, because of each erring one, and because of the simple one -- and ye have purified the house.

`In the first `month', in the fourteenth day of the month, ye have the passover, a feast of seven days, unleavened food is eaten.

22
And the prince hath prepared on that day, for himself, and for all the people of the land, a bullock, a sin-offering.
field: 26045023
26
45
23
And the seven days of the feast he prepareth a burnt-offering to Jehovah, seven bullocks, and seven rams, perfect ones, daily seven days, and a sin-offering, a kid of the goats, daily.

And a present of an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, he doth prepare, and of oil a hin for an ephah.

`Thus said the Lord Jehovah: The gate of the inner court that is looking eastward is shut the six days of work, and on the day of rest it is opened, and in the day of the new moon it is opened;

46
2
and come in hath the prince the way of the porch of the gate at the outside, and he hath stood by the post of the gate, and the priests have made his burnt-offering, and his peace-offerings, and he hath bowed himself by the opening of the gate, and hath gone forth, and the gate is not shut till the evening.

And bowed themselves have the people of the land at the opening of that gate, on sabbaths, and on new moons, before Jehovah.

`And the burnt-offering that the prince bringeth near to Jehovah on the day of rest `is' six lambs, perfect ones, and a ram, a perfect one.

And on the day of the new moon a bullock, a son of the herd, a perfect one, and six lambs and a ram, they are perfect.

And with an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, he prepareth a present, and for the lambs as his hand attaineth, and of oil a hin for an ephah.

`And in the coming in of the prince, the way of the porch of the gate he cometh in, and by its way he goeth out.

And in the coming in of the people of the land before Jehovah at appointed times, he who hath come in the way of the north gate to bow himself, goeth out the way of the south gate, and he who hath come in the way of the south gate, goeth out by the way of the north gate: he doth not turn back the way of the gate by which he came in, but over-against it he goeth out.

And when the prince maketh a free-will burnt-offering, or free-will peace-offerings, to Jehovah, then he hath opened for himself the gate that is looking eastward, and he hath made his burnt-offering and his peace-offerings as he doth in the day of rest, and he hath gone out, and he hath shut the gate after his going out.

`And a lamb, son of a year, a perfect one, thou dost make a burnt-offering daily to Jehovah; morning by morning thou dost make it.

And a present thou dost make for it morning by morning, a sixth part of the ephah, and of oil a third part of the hin, to temper with the fine flour, a present to Jehovah, by a statute age-during -- continually;

`Thus said the Lord Jehovah: When the prince giveth a gift to any of his sons, his inheritance it `is', to his sons it `is'; their possession it `is' by inheritance.

26
46
17
And when he giveth a gift out of his inheritance to one of his servants, then it hath been to him till the year of freedom, and it hath turned back to the prince, only the inheritance of his sons is theirs.

And the prince doth not take of the inheritance of the people to oppress them, out of their possession, out of his own possession he doth cause his sons to inherit, so that My people are not scattered each from his possession.'

And he saith unto me, `This `is' the place where the priests do boil the guilt-offering and the sin-offering, where they bake the present, so as not to bring `it' out unto the outer court, to sanctify the people.'

And he bringeth me out unto the outer court, and causeth me to pass over unto the four corners of the court, and lo, a court in a corner of the court, a court in a corner of the corner.

In the four corners of the court `are' perfume courts, forty long, and thirty broad, one measure `is' to the four corners.

And a row `is' round about in them, round about to them four, and made with boilers under the rows round about.

And he saith unto me, `These `are' the houses of those boiling where the ministrants of the house boil the sacrifice of the people.'
field: 26047001
26
47

And he causeth me to turn back unto the opening of the house; and lo, water is coming forth from under the threshold of the house eastward, for the front of the house `is' eastward, and the water is coming down from beneath, from the right side of the house, from the south of the altar.

And he causeth me to go out the way of the gate northward, and causeth me to turn round the way without, unto the gate that `is' without, the way that is looking eastward, and lo, water is coming forth from the right side.

In the going out of the man eastward, and a line in his hand, then he measureth a thousand by the cubit, and he causeth me to pass over into water -- water to the ankles.

And he measureth a thousand, and causeth me to pass over into water -- water to the knees. And he measureth a thousand, and causeth me to pass over -- water to the loins.
field: 26047005
26
47

And he measureth a thousand -- a stream that I am not able to pass over; for risen have the waters -- waters to swim in -- a stream that is not passed over.

26
47
6
And he saith unto me, `Hast thou seen, son of man?' and he leadeth me, and bringeth me back unto the edge of the stream.

In my turning back, then, lo, at the edge of the stream `are' very many trees, on this side and on that side.

And he saith unto me, `These waters are going forth unto the east circuit, and have gone down unto the desert, and have entered the sea; unto the sea they are brought forth, and the waters have been healed.

And by the stream there cometh up on its edge, on this side and on that side, every `kind of' fruit-tree whose leaf fadeth not, and not consumed is its fruit, according to its months it yieldeth first-fruits, because its waters from the sanctuary are coming forth; and its fruits hath been for food, and its leaf for medicine.

even the heave-offering hath been to them, out of the heave-offering of the land, most holy, by the border of the Levites.

`And `to' the Levites over-against the border of the priests `are' five and twenty thousand `in' length, and `in' breadth ten thousand, all the length `is' five and twenty thousand, and the breadth ten thousand.
field: 26048014

And they do not sell of it, nor exchange, nor cause to pass away the first-fruit of the land: for `it is' holy to Jehovah.
field: 26048015
26
48
15
And the five thousand that is left in the breadth, on the front of the five and twenty thousand, is common -- for the city, for dwelling, and for suburb, and the city hath been in its midst.
field: 26048016
26
48
16
And these `are' its measures: the north side five hundred, and four thousand, and the south side five hundred, and four thousand, and on the east side five hundred, and four thousand, and the west side five hundred, and four thousand.

And the suburb to the city hath been northward, fifty and two hundred, and southward, fifty and two hundred, and eastward, fifty and two hundred, and westward, fifty and two hundred.
field: 26048018
26
48
18
`And the residue in length over-against the heave-offering of the holy `portion is' ten thousand eastward, and ten thousand westward, and it hath been over-against the heave-offering of the holy `portion', and its increase hath been for food to the servants of the city,
field: 26048019
26
48
19
even `to' him who is serving the city, they serve it out of all the tribes of Israel.
field: 26048020
26
48
20
All the heave-offering `is' five and twenty thousand by five and twenty thousand, square do ye lift up the heave-offering of the holy `portion' with the possession of the city.
field: 26048021
26
48

`And the residue `is' for the prince, on this side and on that side of the heave-offering of the holy `portion', and of the possession of the city, on the front of the five and twenty thousand of the heave-offering unto the east border, and westward, on the front of the five and twenty thousand on the west border, over-against the portions of the prince; and the heave-offering of the holy `portion', and the sanctuary of the house, hath been in its midst.
field: 26048022
26
48
22
And from the possession of the Levites, from the possession of the city, in the midst of that which is to the prince, between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin, there is to the prince.

In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah, come hath Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Jerusalem, and layeth siege against it;

and the Lord giveth into his hand Jehoiakim king of Judah, and some of the vessels of the house of God, and he bringeth them in `to' the land of Shinar, `to' the house of his god, and the vessels he hath brought in `to' the treasure-house of his god.

And the king saith, to Ashpenaz master of his eunuchs, to bring in out of the sons of Israel, (even of the royal seed, and of the chiefs,)
field: 27001004
27
1
4
lads in whom there is no blemish, and of good appearance, and skilful in all wisdom, and possessing knowledge, and teaching thought, and who have ability to stand in the palace of the king, and to teach them the literature and language of the Chaldeans.
field: 27001005
27

And the king doth appoint for them a rate, day by day, of the king's portion of food, and of the wine of his drinking, so as to nourish them three years, that at the end thereof they may stand before the king.
field: 27001006
27

And there are among them out of the sons of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah,
field: 27001007
27

7
and the chief of the eunuchs setteth names on them, and he setteth on Daniel, Belteshazzar; and on Hananiah, Shadrach; and on Mishael, Meshach; and on Azariah, Abed-Nego.
field: 27001008
27

8
And Daniel purposeth in his heart that he will not pollute himself with the king's portion of food, and with the wine of his drinking, and he seeketh of the chief of the eunuchs that he may not pollute himself.
field: 27001009
27
1
9
And God giveth Daniel for kindness and for mercies before the chief of the eunuchs;
field: 27001010
27
1
10
and the chief of the eunuchs saith to Daniel, `I am fearing my lord the king, who hath appointed your food and your drink, for why doth he see your faces sadder than `those of' the lads which `are' of your circle? then ye have made my head indebted to the king,'
field: 27001011
27
1
11
And Daniel saith unto the Meltzar, whom the chief of the eunuchs hath appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah,
field: 27001012
27
1
12
`Try, I pray thee, thy servants, ten days; and they give to us of the vegetables, and we eat, and water, and we drink;
field: 27001013
27
1
13
and our appearance is seen before thee, and the appearance of the lads who are eating the king's portion of food, and as thou seest -- deal with thy servants.'
field: 27001014
27
1
14
And he hearkeneth to them, to this word, and trieth them ten days:
field: 27001015
27
1
15
and at the end of ten days their appearance hath appeared better and fatter in flesh then any of the lads who are eating the king's portion of food.
field: 27001016
27
1
16
And the Meltzar is taking away their portion of food, and the wine of their drink, and is giving to them vegetables.
field: 27001017
27
1
17
As to these four lads, God hath given to them knowledge and understanding in every `kind of' literature, and wisdom; and Daniel hath given instruction about every `kind of' vision and dreams.
field: 27001018
27
1
18
And at the end of the days that the king had said to bring them in, bring them in doth the chief of the eunuchs before Nebuchadnezzar.
field: 27001019
27
1
19
And the king speaketh with them, and there hath none been found among them all like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, and they stand before the king;
field: 27001020
27
1
20
and `in' any matter of wisdom `and' understanding that the king hath sought of them, he findeth them ten hands above all the scribes, the enchanters, who `are' in all his kingdom.

And Daniel is unto the first year of Cyrus the king.

And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, dreamed hath Nebuchadnezzar dreams, and his spirit doth move itself, and his sleep hath been against him;
field: 27002002
27
2
2
and the king saith to call for scribes, and for enchanters, and for sorcerers, and for Chaldeans, to declare to the king his dreams. And they come in and stand before the king;
field: 27002003
27
2
3
and the king saith to them, `A dream I have dreamed, and moved is my spirit to know the dream.'
field: 27002004
27
2
4
And the Chaldeans speak to the king `in' Aramaean, `O king, to the ages live, tell the dream to thy servants, and the interpretation we do shew.'
field: 27002005
27
2
5
The king hath answered and said to the Chaldeans, `The thing from me is gone; if ye do not cause me to know the dream and its interpretation, pieces ye are made, and your houses are made dunghills;
field: 27002006
27
2
6
and if the dream and its interpretation ye do shew, gifts, and fee, and great glory ye receive from before me, therefore the dream and its interpretation shew ye me.'
field: 27002007
27
2
7
They have answered a second time, and are saying, `Let the king tell the dream to his servants, and the interpretation we do shew.
field: 27002008
27
2
8
The king hath answered and said, `Of a truth I know that time ye are gaining, because that ye have seen that the thing is gone from me,
field: 27002009
27
2
9
`so' that, if the dream ye do not cause me to know -- one is your sentence, seeing a word lying and corrupt ye have prepared to speak before me, till that the time is changed, therefore the dream tell ye to me, then do I know that its interpretation ye do shew me.'
field: 27002010
27
2
10
The Chaldeans have answered before the king, and are saying, `There is not a man on the earth who is able to shew the king's matter; therefore, no king, chief, and ruler, hath asked such a thing as this of any scribe, and enchanter, and Chaldean;
field: 27002011
27
2
11
and the thing that the king is asking `is' precious, and others are there not that do shew it before the king, save the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.'
field: 27002012
27
2
12
Therefore the king hath been angry and very wroth, and hath said to destroy all the wise men of Babylon;
field: 27002013
27
2
13
And the sentence hath gone forth, and the wise men are being slain, and they have sought Daniel and his companions to be slain.
field: 27002014
27
2
14
Then Daniel hath replied `with' counsel and discretion to Arioch chief of the executioners of the king, who hath gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon.
field: 27002015
27
2
15
He hath answered and said to Arioch the king's captain, `Wherefore `is' the sentence so urgent from before the king?' Then Arioch hath made the thing known to Daniel,
field: 27002016
27
2
16
and Daniel hath gone up, and sought of the king that he would give him time to shew the interpretation to the king.
field: 27002017
27
2
17
Then Daniel to his house hath gone, and to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions, he hath made the thing known,
field: 27002018
27
2
18
and to seek mercies from before the God of the heavens concerning this secret, that they destroy not Daniel and his companions with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
field: 27002019
27
2
19
Then to Daniel, in a vision of the night, the secret hath been revealed. Then hath Daniel blessed the God of the heavens.
field: 27002020
27
2
20
Daniel hath answered and said, `Let the name of God be blessed from age even unto age, for wisdom and might -- for they are His.
field: 27002021
27
2
21
And He is changing times and seasons, He is causing kings to pass away, and He is raising up kings; He is giving wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those possessing understanding.
field: 27002022
27
2
22
He is revealing deep and hidden things; He hath known what `is' in darkness, and light with Him hath dwelt.
field: 27002023
27
2
23
Thee, O God of my fathers, I am thanking and praising, for wisdom and might Thou hast given to me; and now, Thou hast caused me to know that which we have sought from Thee, for the king's matter Thou hast caused us to know.'
field: 27002024
27
2
24
Therefore Daniel hath gone up unto Arioch, whom the king hath appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he hath gone, and thus hath said to him, `The wise men of Babylon thou dost not destroy, bring me up before the king, and the interpretation to the king I do shew.'
field: 27002025
27
2
25
Then Arioch in haste hath brought up Daniel before the king, and thus hath said to him -- `I have found a man of the sons of the Removed of Judah, who the interpretation to the king doth make known.'
field: 27002026
27
2
26
The king hath answered and said to Daniel, whose name `is' Belteshazzar, `Art thou able to cause me to know the dream that I have seen, and its interpretation?'
field: 27002027
27
2
27
Daniel hath answered before the king and said, `The secret that the king is asking, the wise men, the enchanters, the scribes, the soothsayers, are not able to shew to the king;
field: 27002028
27
2
28
but there is a God in the heavens, a revealer of secrets, and He hath made known to king Nebuchadnezzar that which `is' to be in the latter end of the days. `Thy dream and the visions of thy head on thy bed are these:
field: 27002029
27
2
29
Thou, O king, thy thoughts on thy bed have come up `concerning' that which `is' to be after this, and the Revealer of secrets hath caused thee to know that which `is' to be.
field: 27002030
27
2
30
As to me -- not for `any' wisdom that is in me above any living hath this secret been revealed to me; but for the intent that the interpretation to the king they make known, and the thoughts of thy heart thou dost know.
field: 27002031
27
2
31
`Thou, O king, wast looking, and lo, a certain great image. This image `is' mighty, and its brightness excellent; it is standing over-against thee, and its appearance `is' terrible.
field: 27002032
27
2
32
This image! its head `is' of good gold, its breasts and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of brass;
field: 27002033
27
2
33
its legs of iron, its feet, part of them of iron, and part of them of clay.
field: 27002034
27
2
34
Thou wast looking till that a stone hath been cut out without hands, and it hath smitten the image on its feet, that `are' of iron and of clay, and it hath broken them small;
field: 27002035
27
2
35
then broken small together have been the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, and they have been as chaff from the summer threshing-floor, and carried them away hath the wind, and no place hath been found for them: and the stone that smote the image hath become a great mountain, and hath filled all the land.
field: 27002036
27
2
36
This `is' the dream, and its interpretation we do tell before the king.
field: 27002037
27
2
37
`Thou, O king, art a king of kings, for the God of the heavens a kingdom, strength, and might, and glory, hath given to thee;
field: 27002038
27
2
38
and whithersoever sons of men are dwelling, the beast of the field, and the fowl of the heavens, He hath given into thy hand, and hath caused thee to rule over them all; thou `art' this head of gold.
field: 27002039
27
2
39
And after thee doth rise up another kingdom lower than those, and another third kingdom of brass, that doth rule overall the earth.
field: 27002040
27
2
40
And the fourth kingdom is strong as iron, because that iron is breaking small, and making feeble, all `things', even as iron that is breaking all these, it beateth small and breaketh.
field: 27002041
27
2
41
As to that which thou hast seen: the feet and toes, part of them potter's clay, and part of them iron, the kingdom is divided: and some of the standing of the iron `is' to be in it, because that thou hast seen the iron mixed with miry clay.
field: 27002042
27
2
42
As to the toes of the feet, part of them iron, and part of them clay: some part of the kingdom is strong, and some part of it is brittle.
field: 27002043
27
2
43
Because thou hast seen iron mixed with miry clay, they are mixing themselves with the seed of men: and they are not adhering one with another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
field: 27002044
27
2
44
`And in the days of these kings raise up doth the God of the heavens a kingdom that is not destroyed -- to the age, and its kingdom to another people is not left: it beateth small and endeth all these kingdoms, and it standeth to the age.
field: 27002045
27
2
45
Because that thou hast seen that out of the mountain cut hath been a stone without hands, and it hath beaten small the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king that which `is' to be after this; and the dream `is' true, and its interpretation stedfast.
field: 27002046
27
2
46
Then hath king Nebuchadnezzar fallen on his face, and to Daniel he hath done obeisance, and present, and sweet things, he hath said to pour out to him.
field: 27002047
27
2
47
The king hath answered Daniel and said, `Of a truth `it is' that your God is a God of gods, and a Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since thou hast been able to reveal this secret.'
field: 27002048
27
2
48
Then the king hath made Daniel great, and many great gifts he hath given to him, and hath caused him to rule over all the province of Babylon, and chief of the perfects over all the wise men of Babylon.
field: 27002049
27
2
49
And Daniel hath sought from the king, and he hath appointed over the work of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, and Daniel `is' in the gate of the king.
field: 27003001

Nebuchadnezzar the king hath made an image of gold, its height sixty cubits, its breadth six cubits; he hath raised it up in the valley of Dura, in the province of Babylon;
field: 27003002
27
3
2
and Nebuchadnezzar the king hath sent to gather the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the honourable judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the province, to come to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath raised up.
field: 27003003
27
3
3
Then are gathered the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the honourable judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the province, to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath raised up: and they are standing before the image that Nebuchadnezzar hath raised up.
field: 27003004
27
3
4
And a crier is calling mightily: `To you they are saying: O peoples, nations, and languages!
field: 27003005
27
3
5
at the time that ye hear the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, the symphony, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and do obeisance to the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath raised up:
field: 27003006
27
3
6
and whoso doth not fall down and do obeisance, in that hour he is cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.'
field: 27003007
27
3
7
Therefore at that time, when all the peoples are hearing the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, and all kinds of music, falling down are all the peoples, nations and languages, doing obeisance to the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath raised up.
field: 27003008
27
3
8
Therefore at that time drawn near have certain Chaldeans, and accused the Jews;
field: 27003009
27
3
9
they have answered, yea, they are saying to Nebuchadnezzar the king, `O king, to the ages live!
field: 27003010
27
3
10
Thou, O king, hast made a decree that every man who doth hear the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, and the symphony, and all kinds of music, doth fall down and do obeisance to the golden image;
field: 27003011
27
3
11
and whoso doth not fall down and do obeisance, is cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
field: 27003012
27
3
12
There are certain Jews whom thou hast appointed over the work of the province of Babylon -- Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, these men have not made of thee, O king, `any' regard; thy gods they are not serving, and to the golden image thou hast raised up -- are not making obeisance.'
field: 27003013
27
3
13
Then Nebuchadnezzar, in anger and fury, hath said to bring in Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego. Then these men have been brought in before the king.
field: 27003014
27
3
14
Nebuchadnezzar hath answered and said to them, `Is `it' a laid plan, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego -- my gods ye are not serving, and to the golden image that I have raised up ye are not doing obeisance?
field: 27003015
27
3
15
Now, lo, ye are ready, so that at the time that ye hear the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, and the symphony, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and do obeisance to the image that I have made! -- and lo, ye do no obeisance -- in that hour ye are cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; who is that God who doth deliver you out of my hands?'
field: 27003016
27
3
16
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego have answered, yea, they are saying to the king Nebuchadnezzar, `We have no need concerning this matter to answer thee.
field: 27003017
27
3
17
Lo, it is; our God whom we are serving, is able to deliver us from a burning fiery furnace; and from thy hand, O king, He doth deliver.
field: 27003018
27
3
18
And lo -- not! be it known to thee, O king, that thy gods we are not serving, and to the golden image thou hast raised up we do no obeisance.'
field: 27003019
27
3
19
Then Nebuchadnezzar hath been full of fury, and the expression of his face hath been changed concerning Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego; he answered and said to heat the furnace seven times above that which it is seen to be heated;
field: 27003020
27
3
20
and to certain mighty men who `are' in his force he hath said to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, to cast into the burning fiery furnace.
field: 27003021
27
3
21
Then these men have been bound in their coats, their tunics, and their turbans, and their clothing, and have been cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
field: 27003022
27
3
22
Therefore, because that the word of the king is urgent, and the furnace heated exceedingly, those men who have taken up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego -- killed them hath the spark of the fire.
field: 27003023
27
3
23
And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, have fallen down in the midst of the burning fiery furnace -- bound.

Then Nebuchadnezzar the king hath been astonished, and hath risen in haste; he hath answered and said to his counsellors, `Have we not cast three men into the midst of the fire -- bound?' They have answered and are saying to the king, `Certainly, O king.'
field: 27003025

25
He answered and hath said, `Lo, I am seeing four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the appearance of the fourth `is' like to a son of the gods.'
field: 27003026
27

26
Then Nebuchadnezzar hath drawn near to the gate of the burning fiery furnace; he hath answered and said, `Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, servants of God Most High come forth, yea, come;' then come forth do Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, from the midst of the fire;
field: 27003027
27
3
27
and gathered together, the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, and the counsellors of the king, are seeing these men, that the fire hath no power over their bodies, and the hair of their head hath not been singed, and their coats have not changed, and the smell of fire hath not passed on them.
field: 27003028
27

28
Nebuchadnezzar hath answered and hath said, `Blessed `is' the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, who hath sent His messenger, and hath delivered His servants who trusted on Him, and the word of the king changed, and gave up their bodies that they might not serve nor do obeisance to any god except to their own God.
field: 27003029
27

29
And by me a decree is made, that any people, nation, and language, that doth speak erroneously concerning the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, pieces he is made, and its house is made a dunghill, because that there is no other god who is able thus to deliver.'
field: 27003030

Then the king hath caused Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, to prosper in the province of Babylon.

`Nebuchadnezzar the king to all peoples, nations, and languages, who are dwelling in all the earth: Your peace be great!

The signs and wonders that God Most High hath done with me, it is good before me to shew.
field: 27004003
27

His signs how great! and His wonders how mighty! His kingdom `is' a kingdom age-during, and His rule `is' with generation and generation.

`I, Nebuchadnezzar, have been at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace:
field: 27004005
27
4
5
a dream I have seen, and it maketh me afraid, and the conceptions on my bed, and the visions of my head, do trouble me.
field: 27004006
27
4
6
And by me a decree is made, to cause all the wise men of Babylon to come up before me, that the interpretation of the dream they may cause me to know.
field: 27004007
27
4
7
Then coming up are the scribes, the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers, and the dream I have told before them, and its interpretation they are not making known to me.
field: 27004008
27
4
8
And at last come up before me hath Daniel, whose name `is' Belteshazzar -- according to the name of my god -- and in whom `is' the spirit of the holy gods, and the dream before him I have told:
field: 27004009
27
4
9
`O Belteshazzar, master of the scribes, as I have known that the spirit of the holy gods `is' in thee, and no secret doth press thee, the visions of my dream that I have seen, and its interpretation, tell.
field: 27004010
27
4
10
As to the visions of my head on my bed, I was looking, and lo, a tree in the midst of the earth, and its height `is' great:
field: 27004011
27
4
11
become great hath the tree, yea, strong, and its height doth reach to the heavens, and its vision to the end of the whole land;
field: 27004012
27
4
12
its leaves `are' fair, and its budding great, and food for all `is' in it: under it take shade doth the beast of the field, and in its boughs dwell do the birds of the heavens, and of it fed are all flesh.
field: 27004013
27
4
13
`I was looking, in the visions of my head on my bed, and lo, a sifter, even a holy one, from the heavens is coming down.
field: 27004014
27
4
14
He is calling mightily, and thus hath said, Cut down the tree, and cut off its branches, shake off its leaves, and scatter its budding, move away let the beast from under it, and the birds from off its branches;
field: 27004015
27
4
15
but the stump of its roots leave in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field, and with the dew of the heavens is it wet, and with the beasts `is' his portion in the herb of the earth;
field: 27004016
27
4
16
his heart from man's is changed, and the heart of a beast is given to him, and seven times pass over him;
field: 27004017
27
4
17
by the decree of the sifters `is' the sentence, and by the saying of the holy ones the requirement, to the intent that the living may know that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He willeth He giveth it, and the lowest of men He doth raise up over it.
field: 27004018
27
4
18
`This dream I have seen, I king Nebuchadnezzar; and thou, O Belteshazzar, the interpretation tell, because that all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to cause me to know the interpretation, and thou `art' able, for the spirit of the holy gods `is' in thee.
field: 27004019
27
4
19
`Then Daniel, whose name `is' Belteshazzar, hath been astonished about one hour, and his thoughts do trouble him; the king hath answered and said, O Belteshazzar, let not the dream and its interpretation trouble thee. Belteshazzar hath answered and said, My lord, the dream -- to those hating thee, and its interpretation -- to thine enemies!

27

20
The tree that thou hast seen, that hath become great and strong, and its height doth reach to the heavens, and its vision to all the land,

21
and its leaves `are' fair, and its budding great, and food for all `is' in it, under it dwell doth the beast of the field, and on its boughs sit do the birds of the heavens.
field: 27004022
27
4
22
`Thou it `is', O king, for thou hast become great and mighty, and thy greatness hath become great, and hath reached to the heavens, and thy dominion to the end of the earth;
field: 27004023
27
4
23
and that which the king hath seen -- a sifter, even a holy one, coming down from the heavens, and he hath said, Cut down the tree, and destroy it; but the stump of its roots leave in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field, and with the dew of the heavens it is wet, and with the beast of the field `is' his portion, till that seven times pass over him.
field: 27004024
27
4
24
`This `is' the interpretation, O king, and the decree of the Most High it `is' that hath come against my lord the king:
field: 27004025
27
4
25
and they are driving thee away from men, and with the beast of the field is thy dwelling, and the herb as oxen they do cause thee to eat, and by the dew of the heavens they are wetting thee, and seven times do pass over thee, till that thou knowest that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He willeth He giveth it.
field: 27004026
27
4
26
And that which they said -- to leave the stump of the roots of the tree; thy kingdom for thee abideth, after that thou knowest that the heavens are ruling.
field: 27004027
27
4
27
`Therefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and thy sins by righteousness break off, and thy perversity by pitying the poor, lo, it is a lengthening of thine ease.

28
`All -- hath come on Nebuchadnezzar the king.

29
`At the end of twelve months, on the palace of the kingdom of Babylon he hath been walking;

4
30
the king hath answered and said, Is not this that great Babylon that I have built, for the house of the kingdom, in the might of my strength, and for the glory of mine honour?
field: 27004031
27
4
31
`While the word is `in' the king's mouth a voice from the heavens hath fallen: To thee they are saying: O Nebuchadnezzar the king, the kingdom hath passed from thee,

32
and from men they are driving thee away, and with the beast of the field `is' thy dwelling, the herb as oxen they do cause thee to eat, and seven times do pass over thee, till that thou knowest that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He willeth He giveth it.

field: 27004034
27

34
`And at the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, mine eyes to the heavens have lifted up, and mine understanding unto me returneth, and the Most High I have blessed, and the Age-during Living One I have praised and honoured, whose dominion `is' a dominion age-during, and His kingdom with generation and generation;

27

and all who are dwelling on the earth as nothing are reckoned, and according to his will He is doing among the forces of the heavens and those dwelling on the earth, and there is none that doth clap with his hand, and saith to Him, What hast Thou done?

27

36
`At that time my understanding doth return unto me, and for the glory of my kingdom, my honour and my brightness doth return unto me, and to me my counsellors and my great men do seek, and over my kingdom I have been made right, and abundant greatness hath been added to me.

37
`Now, I, Nebuchadnezzar, am praising and exalting and honouring the King of the heavens, for all His works `are' truth, and His paths judgment, and those walking in pride He is able to humble.'

Belshazzar the king hath made a great feast to a thousand of his great men, and before the thousand he is drinking wine;
field: 27005002
27
5
2
Belshazzar hath said -- while tasting the wine -- to bring in the vessels of gold and of silver that Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken from the temple that `is' in Jerusalem, that drink with them may the king, and his great men, his wives, and his concubines.
field: 27005003
27
5
3
Then they have brought in the vessels of gold that had been taken out of the temple of the house of God that `is' in Jerusalem, and drunk with them have the king and his great men, his wives and his concubines;
field: 27005004
27
5
4
they have drunk wine, and have praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
field: 27005005
27
5
5
In that hour come forth have fingers of a man's hand, and they are writing over-against the candlestick, on the plaster of the wall of the king's palace: and the king is seeing the extremity of the hand that is writing;
field: 27005006
27
5
6
then the king's countenance hath changed, and his thoughts do trouble him, and the joints of his loins are loosed, and his knees are smiting one against another.
field: 27005007
27
5
7
Call doth the king mightily, to bring up the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. Answered hath the king, and said to the wise men of Babylon, that, `Any man who doth read this writing, and its interpretation doth shew me, purple he putteth on, and a bracelet of gold `is' on his neck, and third in the kingdom he doth rule.'
field: 27005008
27
5
8
Then coming up are all the wise men of the king, and they are not able to read the writing, and the interpretation to make known to the king;
field: 27005009
27
5
9
then the king Belshazzar is greatly troubled, and his countenance is changing in him, and his great men are perplexed.
field: 27005010
27
5
10
The queen, on account of the words of the king and his great men, to the banquet-house hath come up. Answered hath the queen, and said, `O king, to the ages live; let not thy thoughts trouble thee, nor thy countenance be changed:
field: 27005011
27
5
11
there is a man in thy kingdom in whom `is' the spirit of the holy gods: and, in the days of thy father, light, and understanding, and wisdom -- as the wisdom of the gods -- was found in him; and king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, chief of the scribes, enchanters, Chaldeans, soothsayers, established him -- thy father, O king --
field: 27005012
27
5
12
because that an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and showing of enigmas, and loosing of knots was found in him, in Daniel, whose name the king made Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and the interpretation he doth show.'
field: 27005013
27
5
13
Then Daniel hath been caused to come up before the king; answered hath the king, and said to Daniel, `Thou art that Daniel who `art' of the sons of the Removed of Judah, whom the king my father brought in out of Judah?
field: 27005014
27
5
14
And I have heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods `is' in thee, and light, and understanding, and excellent wisdom have been found in thee.
field: 27005015
27
5
15
`And now, caused to come up before me have been the wise men, the enchanters, that this writing they may read, and its interpretation to cause me to know: and they are not able to shew the interpretation of the thing:
field: 27005016
27
5
16
and I -- I have heard of thee, that thou art able to give interpretations, and to loose knots: now, lo -- thou art able to read the writing, and its interpretation to cause me to know -- purple thou dost put on, and a bracelet of gold `is' on thy neck, and third in the kingdom thou dost rule.'
field: 27005017
27
5

Then hath Daniel answered and said before the king, `Thy gifts be to thyself, and thy fee to another give; nevertheless, the writing I do read to the king, and the interpretation I cause him to know;

27
5
18
thou, O king, God Most High, a kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and honour, gave to Nebuchadnezzar thy father:

27
5
19
and because of the greatness that He gave to him, all peoples, nations, and languages were trembling and fearing before him: whom he willed he was slaying, and whom he willed he was keeping alive, and whom he willed he was raising up, and whom he willed he was making low;
field: 27005020
27
5
20
and when his heart was high, and his spirit was strong to act proudly, he hath been caused to come down from the throne of his kingdom, and his glory they have caused to pass away from him,
field: 27005021
27
5
21
and from the sons of men he is driven, and his heart with the beasts hath been like, and with the wild asses `is' his dwelling; the herb like oxen they cause him to eat, and by the dew of the heavens is his body wet, till that he hath known that God Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and whom He willeth He raiseth up over it.
field: 27005022
27
5
22
`And thou, his son, Belshazzar, hast not humbled thy heart, though all this thou hast known;
field: 27005023
27
5
23
and against the Lord of the heavens thou hast lifted up thyself; and the vessels of His house they have brought in before thee, and thou, and thy great men, thy wives, and thy concubines, are drinking wine with them, and gods of silver, and of gold, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone, that are not seeing, nor hearing, nor knowing, thou hast praised: and the God in whose hand `is' thy breath, and all thy ways, Him thou hast not honoured.
field: 27005024
27
5
24
`Then from before Him sent is the extremity of the hand, and the writing is noted down;
field: 27005025
27
5
25
and this `is' the writing that is noted down: Numbered, Numbered, Weighed, and Divided.
field: 27005026
27
5
26
This `is' the interpretation of the thing: Numbered -- God hath numbered thy kingdom, and hath finished it.
field: 27005027
27
5
27
Weighed -- Thou art weighed in the balances, and hast been found lacking.
field: 27005028
27
5
28
Divided -- Divided is thy kingdom, and it hath been given to the Medes and Persians.'
field: 27005029
27
5
29
Then hath Belshazzar said, and they have clothed Daniel with purple, and a bracelet of gold `is' on his neck, and they have proclaimed concerning him that he is the third ruler in the kingdom.
field: 27005030
27
5
30
In that night Belshazzar king of the Chaldeans is slain,
field: 27005031
27
5
31
and Darius the Mede hath received the kingdom, when a son of sixty and two years.
field: 27006001
27
6
1
It hath been good before Darius, and he hath established over the kingdom satraps -- a hundred and twenty -- that they may be throughout the whole kingdom,
field: 27006002
27
6
2
and higher than they three presidents, of whom Daniel `is' first, that these satraps may give to them an account, and the king have no loss.
field: 27006003
27
6
3
Then this Daniel hath been overseer over the presidents and satraps, because that an excellent spirit `is' in him, and the king hath thought to establish him over the whole kingdom.
field: 27006004
27
6
4
Then the presidents and satraps have been seeking to find a cause of complaint against Daniel concerning the kingdom, and any cause of complaint and corruption they are not able to find, because that he `is' faithful, and any error and corruption have not been found in him.
field: 27006005
27
6
5
Then these men are saying, `We do not find against this Daniel any cause of complaint, except we have found `it' against him in the law of his God.'
field: 27006006
27
6
6
Then these presidents and satraps have assembled near the king, and thus they are saying to him: `O king Darius, to the ages live!
field: 27006007
27
6
7
Taken counsel have all the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects, and the satraps, the counsellors, and the governors, to establish a royal statute, and to strengthen an interdict, that any who seeketh a petition from any god and man until thirty days, save of thee, O king, is cast into a den of lions.
field: 27006008
27
6
8
Now, O king, thou dost establish the interdict, and sign the writing, that it is not to be changed, as a law of Media and Persia, that doth not pass away.'
field: 27006009
27
6
9
Therefore king Darius hath signed the writing and interdict.
field: 27006010
27
6
10
And Daniel, when he hath known that the writing is signed, hath gone up to his house, and the window being opened for him, in his upper chamber, over-against Jerusalem, three times in a day he is kneeling on his knees, and praying, and confessing before his God, because that he was doing `it' before this.
field: 27006011
27
6
11
Then these men have assembled, and found Daniel praying and entreating grace before his God;
field: 27006012
27
6
12
then they have come near, yea, they are saying before the king concerning the king's interdict: `Hast thou not signed an interdict, that any man who seeketh from any god and man until thirty days, save of thee, O king, is cast into a den of lions?' Answered hath the king, and said, `The thing `is' certain as a law of Media and Persia, that doth not pass away.'
field: 27006013
27
6
13
Then they have answered, yea, they are saying before the king, that, `Daniel, who `is' of the sons of the Removed of Judah, hath not placed on thee, O king, `any' regard, nor on the interdict that thou hast signed, and three times in a day he is seeking his petition.'
field: 27006014
27
6
14
Then the king, when he hath heard the matter, is greatly displeased at himself, and on Daniel he hath set the heart to deliver him, and till the going up of the sun he was arranging to deliver him.
field: 27006015
27
6
15
Then these men have assembled near the king, and are saying to the king, `know, O king, that the law of Media and Persia `is': That any interdict and statute that the king doth establish is not to be changed.'
field: 27006016
27
6
16
Then the king hath said, and they have brought Daniel, and have cast `him' into a den of lions. The king hath answered and said to Daniel, `Thy God, whom thou art serving continually, Himself doth deliver thee.'
field: 27006017
27
6
17
And a stone hath been brought and placed at the mouth of the den, and the king hath sealed it with his signet, and with the signet of his great men, that the purpose be not changed concerning Daniel.
field: 27006018
27
6
18
Then hath the king gone to his palace, and he hath passed the night fasting, and dahavan have not been brought up before him, and his sleep hath fled `from' off him.
field: 27006019
27
6
19
Then doth the king rise in the early morning, at the light, and in haste to the den of lions he hath gone;
field: 27006020
27
6
20
and at his coming near to the den, to Daniel, with a grieved voice, he crieth. The king hath answered and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, thy God, whom thou art serving continually, is He able to deliver thee from the lions?'
field: 27006021
27
6
21
Then Daniel hath spoken with the king: `O king, to the ages live:
field: 27006022
27
6
22
my God hath sent His messenger, and hath shut the lions' mouths, and they have not injured me: because that before Him purity hath been found in me; and also before thee, O king, injury I have not done.'
field: 27006023
27
6
23
Then was the king very glad for him, and he hath commanded Daniel to be taken up out of the den, and Daniel hath been taken up out of the den, and no injury hath been found in him, because he hath believed in his God.
field: 27006024
27
6
24
And the king hath said, and they have brought those men who had accused Daniel, and to the den of lions they have cast them, they, their sons, and their wives; and they have not come to the lower part of the den till that the lions have power over them, and all their bones they have broken small.
field: 27006025
27
6
25
Then Darius the king hath written to all the peoples, nations, and languages, who are dwelling in all the land: `Your peace be great!
field: 27006026
27
6
26
From before me is made a decree, that in every dominion of my kingdom they are trembling and fearing before the God of Daniel, for He `is' the living God, and abiding to the ages, and His kingdom that which `is' not destroyed, and His dominion `is' unto the end.
field: 27006027
27
6
27
A deliverer, and rescuer, and doer of signs and wonders in the heavens and in earth `is' He who hath delivered Daniel from the paw of the lions.'
field: 27006028
27

28
And this Daniel hath prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.

In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, Daniel hath seen a dream, and the visions of his head on his bed, then the dream he hath written, the chief of the things he hath said.
field: 27007002
27
7
2
Answered hath Daniel and said, `I was seeing in my vision by night, and lo, the four winds of the heavens are coming forth to the great sea;

3
and four great beasts are coming up from the sea, diverse one from another.
field: 27007004
27

4
The first `is' like a lion, and it hath an eagle's wings. I was seeing till that its wings have been plucked, and it hath been lifted up from the earth, and on feet as a man it hath been caused to stand, and a heart of man is given to it.
field: 27007005
27

5
And lo, another beast, a second, like to a bear, and to the same authority it hath been raised, and three ribs `are' in its mouth, between its teeth, and thus they are saying to it, Rise, consume much flesh.
field: 27007006
27
7
6
`After this I was seeing, and lo, another like a leopard, and it hath four wings of a fowl on its back, and four heads hath the beast, and dominion is given to it.

`After this I was seeing in the visions of the night, and lo, a fourth beast, terrible and fearful, and exceedingly strong; and it hath iron teeth very great, it hath consumed, yea, it doth break small, and the remnant with its feet it hath trampled; and it `is' diverse from all the beasts that `are' before it; and it hath ten horns.

`I was considering about the horns, and lo, another horn, a little one, hath come up between them, and three of the first horns have been eradicated from before it, and lo, eyes as the eyes of man `are' in this horn, and a mouth speaking great things.

`I was seeing till that thrones have been thrown down, and the Ancient of Days is seated, His garment as snow `is' white, and the hair of his head `is' as pure wool, His throne flames of fire, its wheels burning fire.

`I was seeing, then, because of the voice of the great words that the horn is speaking, I was seeing till that the beast is slain, and his body hath been destroyed, and given to the burning fire;

I have drawn near unto one of those standing, and the certainty I seek from him of all this; and he hath said to me, yea, the interpretation of the things he hath caused me to know:

17
`These great beasts, that `are' four, `are' four kings, they rise up from the earth;

and receive the kingdom do the saints of the Most High, and they strengthen the kingdom unto the age, even unto the age of the ages.

`Then I wished for certainty concerning the fourth beast, that was diverse from them all, fearful exceedingly; its teeth of iron, and its nails of brass, it hath devoured, it doth break small, and the remnant with its feet it hath trampled;
field: 27007020
27

20
and concerning the ten horns that `are' in its heads, and of the other that came up, and before which three have fallen, even of that horn that hath eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and whose appearance `is' great above its companions.
field: 27007021
27

21
`I was seeing, and this horn is making war with the saints, and hath prevailed over them,
field: 27007022

till that the Ancient of Days hath come, and judgment is given to the saints of the Most High, and the time hath come, and the saints have strengthened the kingdom.

`Thus he said: The fourth beast is the fourth kingdom in the earth, that is diverse from all kingdoms, and it consumeth all the earth, and treadeth it down, and breaketh it small.
field: 27007024

24
And the ten horns out of the kingdom `are' ten kings, they rise, and another doth rise after them, and it is diverse from the former, and three kings it humbleth;

27

25

I have seen the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward, and no living creatures do stand before it, and there is none delivering out of its hand, and it hath done according to its pleasure, and hath exerted itself.

`And the young he-goat hath exerted itself very much, and when it is strong, broken hath been the great horn; and come up doth a vision of four in its place, at the four winds of the heavens.

And unto the prince of the host it exerteth itself, and by it taken away hath been the continual `sacrifice', and thrown down the base of his sanctuary.

And the host is given up, with the continual `sacrifice', through transgression, and it throweth down truth to the earth, and it hath worked, and prospered.

And after they join themselves unto him, he worketh deceit, and hath increased, and hath been strong by a few of the nation.
field: 27011024
27
11
24
Peaceably even into the fertile places of the province He cometh, and he hath done that which his fathers did not, nor his fathers' fathers; prey, and spoil, and substance, to them he scattereth, and against fenced places he deviseth his devices, even for a time.

`And he stirreth up his power and his heart against the king of the south with a great force, and the king of the south stirreth himself up to battle with a very great and mighty force, and standeth not, for they devise devices against him,

And strong ones out of him stand up, and have polluted the sanctuary, the stronghold, and have turned aside the continual `sacrifice', and appointed the desolating abomination.

And those acting wickedly `against' the covenant, he defileth by flatteries; and the people knowing their God are strong, and have wrought.

And the teachers of the people give understanding to many; and they have stumbled by sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil -- days.

And in their stumbling, they are helped -- a little help, and joined to them have been many with flatteries.

And she conceiveth again, and beareth a daughter, and He saith to him, `Call her name Lo-Ruhamah, for I add no more to pity the house of Israel, for I do utterly take them away;

And now do I reveal her dishonour before the eyes of her lovers, And none doth deliver her out of My hand.

And made desolate her vine and her fig-tree, Of which she said, A gift they `are' to me, That my lovers have given to me, And I have made them for a forest, And consumed them hath a beast of the field.

Therefore, lo, I am enticing her, And have caused her to go to the wilderness, And I have spoken unto her heart,

And given to her her vineyards from thence, And the valley of Achor for an opening of hope, And she hath responded there as in the days of her youth, And as in the day of her coming up out of the land of Egypt.

And I have turned aside the names of the lords from her mouth, And they are not remembered any more by their name.

And I have made to them a covenant in that day, with the beast of the field, And with the fowl of the heavens, And the creeping thing of the ground, And bow, and sword, and war I break from off the land, And have caused them to lie down confidently.

And Jehovah saith unto me: `Again, go, love a woman, loved of a friend, and an adulteress, like the loved of Jehovah, the sons of Israel, and they are turning unto other gods, and are lovers of grape-cakes.'

And I buy her to me for fifteen silverlings, and a homer and a letech of barley;

All of them `are' adulterers, Like a burning oven of a baker, He ceaseth from stirring up after kneading the dough, till its leavening.

A day of our king! Princes have polluted themselves `with' the poison of wine, He hath drawn out his hand with scorners.
field: 28007006

For they have drawn near, As an oven `is' their heart, In their lying in wait all the night sleep doth their baker, Morning! he is burning as a flaming fire.

All of them are warm as an oven, And they have devoured their judges, All their kings have fallen, There is none calling unto Me among them.

Wo to them, for they wandered from Me, Destruction to them, for they transgressed against Me, And I -- I ransom them, and they have spoken lies against Me,

And I instructed -- I strengthened their arms, And concerning Me they think evil!

Cast off hath thy calf, O Samaria, Burned hath Mine anger against them, Till when are they not capable of purity?

For even it `is' of Israel; an artificer made it, And it `is' not God, For the calf of Samaria is fragments!

Israel hath been swallowed up, Now they have been among nations, As a vessel in which is no delight.

They pour not out wine to Jehovah, Nor are they sweet to Him, Their sacrifices `are' as bread of mourners to them, All eating it are unclean: For their bread `is' for themselves, It doth not come into the house of Jehovah.

They have gone deep -- have done corruptly, As `in' the days of Gibeah, He doth remember their iniquity, He doth inspect their sins.

As grapes in a wilderness I found Israel, As the first-fruit in a fig-tree, at its beginning, I have seen your fathers, They -- they have gone in `to' Baal-Peor, And are separated to a shameful thing, And are become abominable like their love.

Also it to Asshur is carried, a present to a warlike king, Shame doth Ephraim receive, And ashamed is Israel of its own counsel.

Cut off is Samaria! Its king `is' as a chip on the face of the waters.

For though ye cause burnt-offerings and your presents to ascend to Me, I am not pleased, And the peace-offering of your fatlings I behold not.

Turn aside from Me the noise of thy songs, Yea, the praise of thy psaltery I hear not.

Sacrifices and offering did ye bring nigh to Me, In a wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?

Who are taking part according to the psaltery, Like David they invented for themselves instruments of music;

Who are drinking with bowls of wine, And `with' chief perfumes anoint `themselves', And have not been pained for the breach of Joseph.

for thus said Amos: By sword die doth Jeroboam, And Israel certainly removeth from off its land.'

and `at' Beth-El do not add to prophesy any more, for it `is' the king's sanctuary, and it `is' the royal house.'

And Amos answereth and saith unto Amaziah, `I `am' no prophet, nor a prophet's son `am' I, but a herdsman I `am', and a cultivator of sycamores,

And now, hear a word of Jehovah: thou art saying, Do not prophesy against Israel, nor drop `any thing' against the house of Isaac,
field: 30007017
30
7
17
therefore thus said Jehovah: Thy wife in the city doth go a-whoring, And thy sons and thy daughters by sword do fall, And thy land by line is apportioned, And thou on an unclean land diest, And Israel certainly removeth from off its land.'

and the mariners are afraid, and cry each unto his god, and cast the goods that `are' in the ship into the sea, to make `it' light of them; and Jonah hath gone down unto the sides of the vessel, and he lieth down, and is fast asleep.

And the men fear a great fear, and say unto him, `What `is' this thou hast done!' for the men have known that from the face of Jehovah he is fleeing, for he hath told them.

And they say unto him, `What do we do to thee that the sea may cease from us, for the sea is more and more tempestuous?'

And he saith unto them, `Lift me up, and cast me into the sea, and the sea doth cease from you; for I know that on my account this great tempest `is' upon you.'

And the men row to turn back unto the dry land, and are not able, for the sea is more and more tempestuous against them.

And they cry unto Jehovah, and say, `We pray Thee, O Jehovah, let us not, we pray Thee, perish for this man's life, and do not lay on us innocent blood, for Thou, Jehovah, as Thou hast pleased, Thou hast done.'

`Rise, go unto Nineveh, the great city, and proclaim unto it the proclamation that I am speaking unto thee;'
field: 32003003

and Jonah riseth, and he goeth unto Nineveh, according to the word of Jehovah. And Nineveh hath been a great city before God, a journey of three days.

And Jonah beginneth to go in to the city a journey of one day, and proclaimeth, and saith, `Yet forty days -- and Nineveh is overturned.'

And the men of Nineveh believe in God, and proclaim a fast, and put on sackcloth, from their greatest even unto their least,

seeing the word doth come unto the king of Nineveh, and he riseth from his throne, and removeth his honourable robe from off him, and spreadeth out sackcloth, and sitteth on the ashes,

and he crieth and saith in Nineveh by a decree of the king and his great ones, saying, `Man and beast, herd and flock -- let them not taste anything, let them not feed, even water let them not drink;

8
and cover themselves `with' sackcloth let man and beast, and let them call unto God mightily, and let them turn back each from his evil way, and from the violence that `is' in their hands.

Whose buyers slay them, and are not guilty, And their sellers say, Blessed `is' Jehovah, And I am rich, And their shepherds have no pity on them.

For I have pity no more on inhabitants of the land, An affirmation of Jehovah, And lo, I am causing man to come forth, Each into the hand of his neighbour, And into the hand of his king, And they have beaten down the land, And I do not deliver out of their hand.'
field: 38011007
38
11
7
And I feed the flock of slaughter, even you, ye afflicted of the flock; and I take to me two staves, the one I have called Pleasantness, and the other I have called Bands, and I feed the flock.
field: 38011008
38
11
8
And I cut off the three shepherds in one month, and my soul is grieved with them, and also their soul hath abhorred me.
field: 38011009
38

9
And I say, `I do not feed you, the dying, let die; and the cut off, let be cut off; and the remaining ones, let each eat the flesh of its neighbour.'
field: 38011010
38
11
10
And I take My staff Pleasantness, and cut it asunder, to make void My covenant that I had made with all the peoples:
field: 38011011
38

11
and it is broken in that day, and know well do the afflicted of the flock who are observing me, that it `is' a word of Jehovah.
field: 38011012

And I say unto them: `If good in your eyes, give my hire, and if not, forbear;' and they weigh out my hire -- thirty silverlings.
field: 38011013
38
11
13
And Jehovah saith unto me, `Cast it unto the potter;' the goodly price that I have been prized at by them, and I take the thirty silverlings, and cast them `to' the house of Jehovah, unto the potter.
field: 38011014
38
11
14
And I cut asunder my second staff, Bands, to break the unity between Judah and Israel.
field: 38011015
38

15
And Jehovah saith unto me, `Again take to thee the instrument of a foolish shepherd.

For lo, I am raising up a shepherd in the land, The cut off he doth not inspect, The shaken off he doth not seek, And the broken he doth not heal, The standing he doth not sustain, And the flesh of the fat he doth eat, And their hoofs he doth break off.

Changed is all the land as a plain, From Gebo to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem, And she hath been high, and hath dwelt in her place, Even from the gate of Benjamin To the place of the first gate, unto the front gate, And from the tower of Hananeel, Unto the wine-vats of the king.

And this is the plague with which Jehovah Doth plague all the peoples who have warred against Jerusalem, He hath consumed away its flesh, And it is standing on its feet, And its eyes are consumed in their holes, And its tongue is consumed in their mouth.
field: 38014013

And it hath come to pass, in that day, A great destruction `from' Jehovah is among them, And they have seized each the hand of his neighbour, And gone up hath his hand against the hand of his neighbour.

And it hath come to pass, Every one who hath been left of all the nations, Who are coming in against Jerusalem, They have also gone up from year to year, To bow themselves to the King, Jehovah of Hosts, And to celebrate the feast of the booths.

For, from the rising of the sun to its going in, Great `is' My name among nations, And in every place perfume is brought nigh to My name, and a pure present, For great `is' My name among nations, Said Jehovah of Hosts.

Lo, I am pushing away before you the seed, And have scattered dung before your faces, Dung of your festivals, And it hath taken you away with it.

And ye have known that I have sent unto you this charge, For My covenant being with Levi, Said Jehovah of Hosts.

My covenant hath been with him of life and of peace, And I make them to him a fear, and he doth fear Me, And because of My name he hath been affrighted.

The law of truth hath been in his mouth, And perverseness hath not been found in his lips, In peace and in uprightness he walked with Me, And many he brought back from iniquity.

For the lips of a priest preserve knowledge, And law they do seek from his mouth, For a messenger of Jehovah of Hosts he `is'.

And ye, ye have turned from the way, Ye have caused many to stumble in the law, Ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, Said Jehovah of Hosts.

And I also, I have made you despised and low before all the people, Because ye are not keeping My ways, And are accepting persons in the law.

Have we not all one father? Hath not our God prepared us? Wherefore do we deal treacherously, Each against his brother, To pollute the covenant of our fathers?

And this a second time ye do, Covering with tears the altar of Jehovah, With weeping and groaning, Because there is no more turning unto the present, Or receiving of a pleasing thing from your hand.
field: 39002014
39
2
14
And ye have said, `Wherefore?' Because Jehovah hath testified between thee And the wife of thy youth, That thou hast dealt treacherously against her, And she thy companion, and thy covenant-wife.
field: 39002015
39

15
And He did not make one `only', And He hath the remnant of the Spirit. And what `is' the one `alone'! He is seeking a godly seed. And ye have been watchful over your spirit, And with the wife of thy youth, None doth deal treacherously.

Ye have wearied Jehovah with your words, And ye have said: `In what have we wearied Him?' In your saying: `Every evil-doer `is' good in the eyes of Jehovah, And in them He is delighting,' Or, `Where `is' the God of judgment?'

And I have drawn near to you for judgment, And I have been a witness, Making haste against sorcerers, And against adulterers, And against swearers to a falsehood, And against oppressors of the hire of an hireling, Of a widow, and of a fatherless one, And those turning aside a sojourner, And who fear Me not, said Jehovah of Hosts.

For I `am' Jehovah, I have not changed, And ye, the sons of Jacob, Ye have not been consumed.

Even from the days of your fathers Ye have turned aside from My statutes, And ye have not taken heed. Turn back unto Me, and I turn back to you, Said Jehovah of Hosts. And ye have said, `In what do we turn back?'

Doth man deceive God? but ye are deceiving Me, And ye have said: `In what have we deceived Thee?' The tithe and the heave-offering!

With a curse ye are cursed! And Me ye are deceiving -- this nation -- all of it.

Bring in all the tithe unto the treasure-house, And there is food in My house; When ye have tried Me, now, with this, Said Jehovah of Hosts, Do not I open to you the windows of heaven? Yea, I have emptied on you a blessing till there is no space.

11
And I have pushed for you against the consumer, And He doth not destroy to you the fruit of the ground, Nor miscarry to you doth the vine in the field, Said Jehovah of Hosts.

And declared you happy have all the nations, For ye are a delightful land, said Jehovah of Hosts.

Hard against Me have been your words, Said Jehovah, and ye have said: `What have we spoken against Thee?'

Ye have said, `A vain thing to serve God! And what gain when we kept His charge? And when we have gone in black, Because of Jehovah of Hosts?

And now, we are declaring the proud happy, Yea, built up have been those doing wickedness, Yea they have tempted God, and escape.'

And of Jesus Christ, the birth was thus: For his mother Mary having been betrothed to Joseph, before their coming together she was found to have conceived from the Holy Spirit,

19
and Joseph her husband being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, did wish privately to send her away.

And on his thinking of these things, lo, a messenger of the Lord in a dream appeared to him, saying, `Joseph, son of David, thou mayest not fear to receive Mary thy wife, for that which in her was begotten `is' of the Holy Spirit,

and she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.'

`Lo, the virgin shall conceive, and she shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel,' which is, being interpreted `With us `he is' God.'

And Herod the king having heard, was stirred, and all Jerusalem with him,

and having gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he was inquiring from them where the Christ is born.

And they said to him, `In Beth-Lehem of Judea, for thus it hath been written through the prophet,

And thou, Beth-Lehem, the land of Judah, thou art by no means the least among the leaders of Judah, for out of thee shall come one leading, who shall feed My people Israel.'

Then Herod, privately having called the mages, did inquire exactly from them the time of the appearing star,

and having sent them to Beth-Lehem, he said, `Having gone -- inquire ye exactly for the child, and whenever ye may have found, bring me back word, that I also having come may bow to him.'

And they, having heard the king, departed, and lo, the star, that they did see in the east, did go before them, till, having come, it stood over where the child was.

And having seen the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy,

and having come to the house, they found the child with Mary his mother, and having fallen down they bowed to him, and having opened their treasures, they presented to him gifts, gold, and frankincense, and myrrh,

12
and having been divinely warned in a dream not to turn back unto Herod, through another way they withdrew to their own region.

And on their having withdrawn, lo, a messenger of the Lord doth appear in a dream to Joseph, saying, `Having risen, take the child and his mother, and flee to Egypt, and be thou there till I may speak to thee, for Herod is about to seek the child to destroy him.'

And he, having risen, took the child and his mother by night, and withdrew to Egypt,

and he was there till the death of Herod, that it might be fulfilled that was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, `Out of Egypt I did call My Son.'

16
Then Herod, having seen that he was deceived by the mages, was very wroth, and having sent forth, he slew all the male children in Beth-Lehem, and in all its borders, from two years and under, according to the time that he inquired exactly from the mages.
field: 40002017

Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying,

whose fan `is' in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his floor, and will gather his wheat to the storehouse, but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.'

40

13
Then cometh Jesus from Galilee upon the Jordan, unto John to be baptized by him,
field: 40003014
40
3
14
but John was forbidding him, saying, `I have need by thee to be baptized -- and thou dost come unto me!'
field: 40003015
40
3
15
But Jesus answering said to him, `Suffer now, for thus it is becoming to us to fulfill all righteousness,' then he doth suffer him.
field: 40003016
40
3
16
And having been baptized, Jesus went up immediately from the water, and lo, opened to him were the heavens, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him,
field: 40003017
40
3
17
and lo, a voice out of the heavens, saying, `This is My Son -- the Beloved, in whom I did delight.'
field: 40004001
40
4
1
Then Jesus was led up to the wilderness by the Spirit, to be tempted by the Devil,
field: 40004002
40
4
2
and having fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards he did hunger.
field: 40004003
40
4
3
And the Tempter having come to him said, `If Son thou art of God -- speak that these stones may become loaves.'
field: 40004004
40
4
4
But he answering said, `It hath been written, Not upon bread alone doth man live, but upon every word coming forth from the mouth of God.'
field: 40004005
40
4
5
Then doth the Devil take him to the `holy' city, and doth set him on the pinnacle of the temple,
field: 40004006
40
4
6
and saith to him, `If Son thou art of God -- cast thyself down, for it hath been written, that, His messengers He shall charge concerning thee, and on hands they shall bear thee up, that thou mayest not dash on a stone thy foot.'
field: 40004007
40
4
7
Jesus said to him again, `It hath been written, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.'
field: 40004008
40
4
8
Again doth the Devil take him to a very high mount, and doth shew to him all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them,
field: 40004009
40
4
9
and saith to him, `All these to thee I will give, if falling down thou mayest bow to me.'
field: 40004010
40
4
10
Then saith Jesus to him, `Go -- Adversary, for it hath been written, The Lord thy God thou shalt bow to, and Him only thou shalt serve.'
field: 40004011
40
4
11
Then doth the Devil leave him, and lo, messengers came and were ministering to him.
field: 40004012
40
4
12
And Jesus having heard that John was delivered up, did withdraw to Galilee,
field: 40004013
40
4
13
and having left Nazareth, having come, he dwelt at Capernaum that is by the sea, in the borders of Zebulun and Naphtalim,
field: 40004014
40
4
14
that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
field: 40004015
40
4
15
`Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations! --
field: 40004016
40
4
16
the people that is sitting in darkness saw a great light, and to those sitting in a region and shadow of death -- light arose to them.'
field: 40004017
40
4
17
From that time began Jesus to proclaim and to say, `Reform ye, for come nigh hath the reign of the heavens.'
field: 40004018
40
4
18
And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon named Peter and Andrew his brother, casting a drag into the sea -- for they were fishers --
field: 40004019
40
4
19
and he saith to them, `Come ye after me, and I will make you fishers of men,'
field: 40004020
40
4
20
and they, immediately, having left the nets, did follow him.
field: 40004021
40
4
21
And having advanced thence, he saw other two brothers, James of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, refitting their nets, and he called them,
field: 40004022
40
4
22
and they, immediately, having left the boat and their father, did follow him.
field: 40004023
40
4
23
And Jesus was going about all Galilee teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the good news of the reign, and healing every disease, and every malady among the people,
field: 40004024
40
4
24
and his fame went forth to all Syria, and they brought to him all having ailments, pressed with manifold sicknesses and pains, and demoniacs, and lunatics, and paralytics, and he healed them.
field: 40004025
40
4
25
And there followed him many multitudes from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judea, and beyond the Jordan.
field: 40005001
40
5
1
And having seen the multitudes, he went up to the mount, and he having sat down, his disciples came to him,
field: 40005002
40
5
2
and having opened his mouth, he was teaching them, saying:
field: 40005003
40
5
3
`Happy the poor in spirit -- because theirs is the reign of the heavens.
field: 40005004
40
5
4
`Happy the mourning -- because they shall be comforted.
field: 40005005
40
5
5
`Happy the meek -- because they shall inherit the land.
field: 40005006
40
5
6
`Happy those hungering and thirsting for righteousness -- because they shall be filled.
field: 40005007
40
5
7
`Happy the kind -- because they shall find kindness.
field: 40005008
40
5
8
`Happy the clean in heart -- because they shall see God.
field: 40005009
40
5
9
`Happy the peacemakers -- because they shall be called Sons of God.
field: 40005010
40
5
10
`Happy those persecuted for righteousness' sake -- because theirs is the reign of the heavens.
field: 40005011
40
5
11
`Happy are ye whenever they may reproach you, and may persecute, and may say any evil thing against you falsely for my sake --
field: 40005012
40
5
12
rejoice ye and be glad, because your reward `is' great in the heavens, for thus did they persecute the prophets who were before you.
field: 40005013
40
5
13
`Ye are the salt of the land, but if the salt may lose savour, in what shall it be salted? for nothing is it good henceforth, except to be cast without, and to be trodden down by men.
field: 40005014
40
5
14
`Ye are the light of the world, a city set upon a mount is not able to be hid;
field: 40005015
40
5
15
nor do they light a lamp, and put it under the measure, but on the lamp-stand, and it shineth to all those in the house;
field: 40005016
40
5
16
so let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and may glorify your Father who `is' in the heavens.
field: 40005017
40
5
17
`Do not suppose that I came to throw down the law or the prophets -- I did not come to throw down, but to fulfill;
field: 40005018
40
5
18
for, verily I say to you, till that the heaven and the earth may pass away, one iota or one tittle may not pass away from the law, till that all may come to pass.
field: 40005019
40
5
19
`Whoever therefore may loose one of these commands -- the least -- and may teach men so, least he shall be called in the reign of the heavens, but whoever may do and may teach `them', he shall be called great in the reign of the heavens.
field: 40005020
40
5
20
`For I say to you, that if your righteousness may not abound above that of the scribes and Pharisees, ye may not enter to the reign of the heavens.
field: 40005021
40
5
21
`Ye heard that it was said to the ancients: Thou shalt not kill, and whoever may kill shall be in danger of the judgment;
field: 40005022
40
5
22
but I -- I say to you, that every one who is angry at his brother without cause, shall be in danger of the judgment, and whoever may say to his brother, Empty fellow! shall be in danger of the sanhedrim, and whoever may say, Rebel! shall be in danger of the gehenna of the fire.
field: 40005023
40
5
23
`If, therefore, thou mayest bring thy gift to the altar, and there mayest remember that thy brother hath anything against thee,
field: 40005024
40
5
24
leave there thy gift before the altar, and go -- first be reconciled to thy brother, and then having come bring thy gift.
field: 40005025
40
5
25
`Be agreeing with thy opponent quickly, while thou art in the way with him, that the opponent may not deliver thee to the judge, and the judge may deliver thee to the officer, and to prison thou mayest be cast,
field: 40005026
40
5
26
verily I say to thee, thou mayest not come forth thence till that thou mayest pay the last farthing.
field: 40005027
40
5
27
`Ye heard that it was said to the ancients: Thou shalt not commit adultery;
field: 40005028
40
5
28
but I -- I say to you, that every one who is looking on a woman to desire her, did already commit adultery with her in his heart.
field: 40005029
40
5
29
`But, if thy right eye doth cause thee to stumble, pluck it out and cast from thee, for it is good to thee that one of thy members may perish, and not thy whole body be cast to gehenna.
field: 40005030
40
5
30
`And, if thy right hand doth cause thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast from thee, for it is good to thee that one of thy members may perish, and not thy whole body be cast to gehenna.
field: 40005031
40
5
31
`And it was said, That whoever may put away his wife, let him give to her a writing of divorce;
field: 40005032
40
5
32
but I -- I say to you, that whoever may put away his wife, save for the matter of whoredom, doth make her to commit adultery; and whoever may marry her who hath been put away doth commit adultery.
field: 40005033
40
5
33
`Again, ye heard that it was said to the ancients: Thou shalt not swear falsely, but thou shalt pay to the Lord thine oaths;
field: 40005034
40
5
34
but I -- I say to you, not to swear at all; neither by the heaven, because it is the throne of God,
field: 40005035
40
5
35
nor by the earth, because it is His footstool, nor by Jerusalem, because it is a city of a great king,
field: 40005036
40
5
36
nor by thy head mayest thou swear, because thou art not able one hair to make white or black;
field: 40005037
40
5
37
but let your word be, Yes, Yes, No, No, and that which is more than these is of the evil.
field: 40005038
40
5
38
`Ye heard that it was said: Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth;
field: 40005039
40
5
39
but I -- I say to you, not to resist the evil, but whoever shall slap thee on thy right cheek, turn to him also the other;
field: 40005040
40
5
40
and whoever is willing to take thee to law, and thy coat to take -- suffer to him also the cloak.
field: 40005041
40
5
41
`And whoever shall impress thee one mile, go with him two,
field: 40005042
40
5
42
to him who is asking of thee be giving, and him who is willing to borrow from thee thou mayest not turn away.
field: 40005043
40
5
43
`Ye heard that it was said: Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and shalt hate thine enemy;
field: 40005044
40
5
44
but I -- I say to you, Love your enemies, bless those cursing you, do good to those hating you, and pray for those accusing you falsely, and persecuting you,
field: 40005045
40
5
45
that ye may be sons of your Father in the heavens, because His sun He doth cause to rise on evil and good, and He doth send rain on righteous and unrighteous.
field: 40005046
40
5
46
`For, if ye may love those loving you, what reward have ye? do not also the tax-gatherers the same?
field: 40005047
40
5
47
and if ye may salute your brethren only, what do ye abundant? do not also the tax-gatherers so?
field: 40005048
40
5
48
ye shall therefore be perfect, as your Father who `is' in the heavens is perfect.
field: 40006001
40
6
1
`Take heed your kindness not to do before men, to be seen by them, and if not -- reward ye have not from your Father who `is' in the heavens;
field: 40006002
40
6
2
whenever, therefore, thou mayest do kindness, thou mayest not sound a trumpet before thee as the hypocrites do, in the synagogues, and in the streets, that they may have glory from men; verily I say to you -- they have their reward!
field: 40006003
40
6
3
`But thou, doing kindness, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doth,
field: 40006004
40
6
4
that thy kindness may be in secret, and thy Father who is seeing in secret Himself shall reward thee manifestly.
field: 40006005
40
6
5
`And when thou mayest pray, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites, because they love in the synagogues, and in the corners of the broad places -- standing -- to pray, that they may be seen of men; verily I say to you, that they have their reward.
field: 40006006
40
6
6
`But thou, when thou mayest pray, go into thy chamber, and having shut thy door, pray to thy Father who `is' in secret, and thy Father who is seeing in secret, shall reward thee manifestly.
field: 40006007
40
6
7
`And -- praying -- ye may not use vain repetitions like the nations, for they think that in their much speaking they shall be heard,
field: 40006008
40
6
8
be ye not therefore like to them, for your Father doth know those things that ye have need of before your asking him;
field: 40006009
40
6
9
thus therefore pray ye: `Our Father who `art' in the heavens! hallowed be Thy name.
field: 40006010
40
6
10
`Thy reign come: Thy will come to pass, as in heaven also on the earth.
field: 40006011
40
6
11
`Our appointed bread give us to-day.
field: 40006012
40
6
12
`And forgive us our debts, as also we forgive our debtors.
field: 40006013
40
6
13
`And mayest Thou not lead us to temptation, but deliver us from the evil, because Thine is the reign, and the power, and the glory -- to the ages. Amen.
field: 40006014
40
6
14
`For, if ye may forgive men their trespasses He also will forgive you -- your Father who `is' in the heavens;
field: 40006015
40
6
15
but if ye may not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
field: 40006016
40
6
16
`And when ye may fast, be ye not as the hypocrites, of sour countenances, for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear to men fasting; verily I say to you, that they have their reward.
field: 40006017
40
6
17
`But thou, fasting, anoint thy head, and wash thy face,
field: 40006018
40
6
18
that thou mayest not appear to men fasting, but to thy Father who `is' in secret, and thy Father, who is seeing in secret, shall reward thee manifestly.
field: 40006019

19
`Treasure not up to yourselves treasures on the earth, where moth and rust disfigure, and where thieves break through and steal,
field: 40006020
40
6
20
but treasure up to yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth disfigure, and where thieves do not break through nor steal,
field: 40006021
40
6
21
for where your treasure is, there will be also your heart.
field: 40006022

22
`The lamp of the body is the eye, if, therefore, thine eye may be perfect, all thy body shall be enlightened,
field: 40006023
40
6
23
but if thine eye may be evil, all thy body shall be dark; if, therefore, the light that `is' in thee is darkness -- the darkness, how great!
field: 40006024
40
6
24
`None is able to serve two lords, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will hold to the one, and despise the other; ye are not able to serve God and Mammon.
field: 40006025
40
6
25
`Because of this I say to you, be not anxious for your life, what ye may eat, and what ye may drink, nor for your body, what ye may put on. Is not the life more than the nourishment, and the body than the clothing?
field: 40006026
40
6
26
look to the fowls of the heaven, for they do not sow, nor reap, nor gather into storehouses, and your heavenly Father doth nourish them; are not ye much better than they?
field: 40006027
40
6
27
`And who of you, being anxious, is able to add to his age one cubit?
field: 40006028
40
6
28
and about clothing why are ye anxious? consider well the lilies of the field; how do they grow? they do not labour, nor do they spin;
field: 40006029
40
6
29
and I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed as one of these.
field: 40006030
40
6
30
`And if the herb of the field, that to-day is, and to-morrow is cast to the furnace, God doth so clothe -- not much more you, O ye of little faith?
field: 40006031
40
6
31
therefore ye may not be anxious, saying, What may we eat? or, What may we drink? or, What may we put round?
field: 40006032
40
6
32
for all these do the nations seek for, for your heavenly Father doth know that ye have need of all these;
field: 40006033
40
6
33
but seek ye first the reign of God and His righteousness, and all these shall be added to you.
field: 40006034
40
6
34
Be not therefore anxious for the morrow, for the morrow shall be anxious for its own things; sufficient for the day `is' the evil of it.
field: 40007001
40
7
1
`Judge not, that ye may not be judged,
field: 40007002
40
7
2
for in what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged, and in what measure ye measure, it shall be measured to you.
field: 40007003
40
7
3
`And why dost thou behold the mote that `is' in thy brother's eye, and the beam that `is' in thine own eye dost not consider?
field: 40007004
40
7
4
or, how wilt thou say to thy brother, Suffer I may cast out the mote from thine eye, and lo, the beam `is' in thine own eye?
field: 40007005
40
7
5
Hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then thou shalt see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
field: 40007006
40
7
6
`Ye may not give that which is `holy' to the dogs, nor cast your pearls before the swine, that they may not trample them among their feet, and having turned -- may rend you.
field: 40007007
40
7
7
`Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you;
field: 40007008
40
7
8
for every one who is asking doth receive, and he who is seeking doth find, and to him who is knocking it shall be opened.
field: 40007009
40
7
9
`Or what man is of you, of whom, if his son may ask a loaf -- a stone will he present to him?

40
7
10
and if a fish he may ask -- a serpent will he present to him?
field: 40007011
40
7
11
if, therefore, ye being evil, have known good gifts to give to your children, how much more shall your Father who `is' in the heavens give good things to those asking him?
field: 40007012
40
7
12
`All things, therefore, whatever ye may will that men may be doing to you, so also do to them, for this is the law and the prophets.

`Go ye in through the strait gate, because wide `is' the gate, and broad the way that is leading to the destruction, and many are those going in through it;
field: 40007014
40
7
14
how strait `is' the gate, and compressed the way that is leading to the life, and few are those finding it!
field: 40007015
40
7
15
`But, take heed of the false prophets, who come unto you in sheep's clothing, and inwardly are ravening wolves.
field: 40007016
40
7
16
From their fruits ye shall know them; do `men' gather from thorns grapes? or from thistles figs?
field: 40007017
40
7
17
so every good tree doth yield good fruits, but the bad tree doth yield evil fruits.
field: 40007018
40
7
18
A good tree is not able to yield evil fruits, nor a bad tree to yield good fruits.
field: 40007019
40
7
19
Every tree not yielding good fruit is cut down and is cast to fire:
field: 40007020
40
7
20
therefore from their fruits ye shall know them.
field: 40007021
40
7
21
`Not every one who is saying to me Lord, lord, shall come into the reign of the heavens; but he who is doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens.
field: 40007022
40
7
22
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, lord, have we not in thy name prophesied? and in thy name cast out demons? and in thy name done many mighty things?
field: 40007023
40
7
23
and then I will acknowledge to them, that -- I never knew you, depart from me ye who are working lawlessness.
field: 40007024
40
7
24
`Therefore, every one who doth hear of me these words, and doth do them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house upon the rock;
field: 40007025
40
7
25
and the rain did descend, and the streams came, and the winds blew, and they beat on that house, and it fell not, for it had been founded on the rock.
field: 40007026
40
7
26
`And every one who is hearing of me these words, and is not doing them, shall be likened to a foolish man who built his house upon the sand;
field: 40007027
40
7
27
and the rain did descend, and the streams came, and the winds blew, and they beat on that house, and it fell, and its fall was great.'
field: 40007028
40
7
28
And it came to pass, when Jesus ended these words, the multitudes were astonished at his teaching,
field: 40007029
40
7
29
for he was teaching them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
field: 40008001
40
8
1
And when he came down from the mount, great multitudes did follow him,
field: 40008002
40
8
2
and lo, a leper having come, was bowing to him, saying, `Sir, if thou art willing, thou art able to cleanse me;'
field: 40008003
40
8
3
and having stretched forth the hand, Jesus touched him, saying, `I will, be thou cleansed,' and immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
field: 40008004
40
8
4
And Jesus saith to him, `See, thou mayest tell no one, but go, thyself shew to the priest, and bring the gift that Moses commanded for a testimony to them.'
field: 40008005
40
8
5
And Jesus having entered into Capernaum, there came to him a centurion calling upon him,
field: 40008006
40
8
6
and saying, `Sir, my young man hath been laid in the house a paralytic, fearfully afflicted,'
field: 40008007
40
8
7
and Jesus saith to him, `I, having come, will heal him.'
field: 40008008
40
8
8
And the centurion answering said, `Sir, I am not worthy that thou mayest enter under my roof, but only say a word, and my servant shall be healed;
field: 40008009
40
8
9
for I also am a man under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth, and to another, Be coming, and he cometh, and to my servant, Do this, and he doth `it'.'
field: 40008010
40
8
10
And Jesus having heard, did wonder, and said to those following, `Verily I say to you, not even in Israel so great faith have I found;
field: 40008011
40
8
11
and I say to you, that many from east and west shall come and recline (at meat) with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the reign of the heavens,
field: 40008012
40
8
12
but the sons of the reign shall be cast forth to the outer darkness -- there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.'
field: 40008013
40
8
13
And Jesus said to the centurion, `Go, and as thou didst believe let it be to thee;' and his young man was healed in that hour.
field: 40008014
40
8
14
And Jesus having come into the house of Peter, saw his mother-in-law laid, and fevered,
field: 40008015
40
8
15
and he touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she arose, and was ministering to them.
field: 40008016
40
8
16
And evening having come, they brought to him many demoniacs, and he did cast out the spirits with a word, and did heal all who were ill,
field: 40008017
40
8
17
that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, `Himself took our infirmities, and the sicknesses he did bear.'
field: 40008018
40
8
18
And Jesus having seen great multitudes about him, did command to depart to the other side;
field: 40008019
40
8
19
and a certain scribe having come, said to him, `Teacher, I will follow thee wherever thou mayest go;'
field: 40008020
40
8
20
and Jesus saith to him, `The foxes have holes, and the birds of the heaven places of rest, but the Son of Man hath not where he may lay the head.'
field: 40008021
40
8
21
And another of his disciples said to him, `Sir, permit me first to depart and to bury my father;'
field: 40008022
40
8
22
and Jesus said to him, `Follow me, and suffer the dead to bury their own dead.'
field: 40008023
40
8
23
And when he entered into the boat his disciples did follow him,
field: 40008024
40
8
24
and lo, a great tempest arose in the sea, so that the boat was being covered by the waves, but he was sleeping,
field: 40008025
40
8
25
and his disciples having come to him, awoke him, saying, `Sir, save us; we are perishing.'
field: 40008026
40
8
26
And he saith to them, `Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?' Then having risen, he rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm;
field: 40008027
40
8
27
and the men wondered, saying, `What kind -- is this, that even the wind and the sea do obey him?'
field: 40008028
40
8
28
And he having come to the other side, to the region of the Gergesenes, there met him two demoniacs, coming forth out of the tombs, very fierce, so that no one was able to pass over by that way,
field: 40008029
40
8
29
and lo, they cried out, saying, `What -- to us and to thee, Jesus, Son of God? didst thou come hither, before the time, to afflict us?'
field: 40008030
40
8
30
And there was far off from them a herd of many swine feeding,
field: 40008031
40
8
31
and the demons were calling on him, saying, `If thou dost cast us forth, permit us to go away to the herd of the swine;'
field: 40008032
40
8
32
and he saith to them, `Go.' And having come forth, they went to the herd of the swine, and lo, the whole herd of the swine rushed down the steep, to the sea, and died in the waters,
field: 40008033
40
8
33
and those feeding did flee, and, having gone to the city, they declared all, and the matter of the demoniacs.
field: 40008034
40
8
34
And lo, all the city came forth to meet Jesus, and having seen him, they called on `him' that he might depart from their borders.
field: 40009001
40
9
1
And having gone to the boat, he passed over, and came to his own city,
field: 40009002
40
9
2
and lo, they were bringing to him a paralytic, laid upon a couch, and Jesus having seen their faith, said to the paralytic, `Be of good courage, child, thy sins have been forgiven thee.'
field: 40009003
40
9
3
And lo, certain of the scribes said within themselves, `This one doth speak evil.'
field: 40009004
40
9
4
And Jesus, having known their thoughts, said, `Why think ye evil in your hearts?
field: 40009005
40
9
5
for which is easier? to say, The sins have been forgiven to thee; or to say, Rise, and walk?
field: 40009006
40
9
6
`But, that ye may know that the Son of Man hath power upon the earth to forgive sins -- (then saith he to the paralytic) -- having risen, take up thy couch, and go to thy house.'
field: 40009007
40
9
7
And he, having risen, went to his house,
field: 40009008
40
9
8
and the multitudes having seen, wondered, and glorified God, who did give such power to men.
field: 40009009
40
9
9
And Jesus passing by thence, saw a man sitting at the tax-office, named Matthew, and saith to him, `Be following me,' and he, having risen, did follow him.
field: 40009010
40
9
10
And it came to pass, he reclining (at meat) in the house, that lo, many tax-gatherers and sinners having come, were lying (at meat) with Jesus and his disciples,
field: 40009011
40
9
11
and the Pharisees having seen, said to his disciples, `Wherefore with the tax-gatherers and sinners doth your teacher eat?'
field: 40009012
40
9
12
And Jesus having heard, said to them, `They who are whole have no need of a physician, but they who are ill;
field: 40009013
40
9
13
but having gone, learn ye what is, Kindness I will, and not sacrifice, for I did not come to call righteous men, but sinners, to reformation.'
field: 40009014
40
9
14
Then come to him do the disciples of John, saying, `Wherefore do we and the Pharisees fast much, and thy disciples fast not?'
field: 40009015
40
9
15
And Jesus said to them, `Can the sons of the bride-chamber mourn, so long as the bridegroom is with them? but days shall come when the bridegroom may be taken from them, and then they shall fast.
field: 40009016
40
9
16
`And no one doth put a patch of undressed cloth on an old garment, for its filling up doth take from the garment, and a worse rent is made.
field: 40009017
40
9
17
`Nor do they put new wine into old skins, and if not -- the skins burst, and the wine doth run out, and the skins are destroyed, but they put new wine into new skins, and both are preserved together.'
field: 40009018
40
9
18
While he is speaking these things to them, lo, a ruler having come, was bowing to him, saying that `My daughter just now died, but, having come, lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.'
field: 40009019
40
9
19
And Jesus having risen, did follow him, also his disciples,
field: 40009020
40
9
20
and lo, a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, having come to him behind, did touch the fringe of his garments,
field: 40009021
40
9
21
for she said within herself, `If only I may touch his garment, I shall be saved.'
field: 40009022
40
9
22
And Jesus having turned about, and having seen her, said, `Be of good courage, daughter, thy faith hath saved thee,' and the woman was saved from that hour.
field: 40009023
40
9
23
And Jesus having come to the house of the ruler, and having seen the minstrels and the multitude making tumult,
field: 40009024
40
9
24
he saith to them, `Withdraw, for the damsel did not die, but doth sleep,' and they were deriding him;
field: 40009025
40
9
25
but, when the multitude was put forth, having gone in, he took hold of her hand, and the damsel arose,
field: 40009026
40
9
26
and the fame of this went forth to all the land.
field: 40009027
40
9
27
And Jesus passing on thence, two blind men followed him, calling and saying, `Deal kindly with us, Son of David.'
field: 40009028
40
9
28
And he having come to the house, the blind men came to him, and Jesus saith to them, `Believe ye that I am able to do this?' They say to him, `Yes, sir.'
field: 40009029
40
9
29
Then touched he their eyes, saying, `According to your faith let it be to you,'
field: 40009030
40
9
30
and their eyes were opened, and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, `See, let no one know;'
field: 40009031
40
9
31
but they, having gone forth, did spread his fame in all that land.
field: 40009032
40
9
32
And as they are coming forth, lo, they brought to him a man dumb, a demoniac,
field: 40009033
40
9
33
and the demon having been cast out, the dumb spake, and the multitude did wonder, saying that `It was never so seen in Israel:'
field: 40009034
40
9
34
but the Pharisees said, `By the ruler of the demons he doth cast out the demons.'
field: 40009035
40
9
35
And Jesus was going up and down all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the good news of the reign, and healing every sickness and every malady among the people.
field: 40009036
40
9
36
And having seen the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them, that they were faint and cast aside, as sheep not having a shepherd,
field: 40009037
40
9
37
then saith he to his disciples, `The harvest indeed `is' abundant, but the workmen few;
field: 40009038
40
9
38
beseech ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he may put forth workmen to His harvest.'
field: 40010001
40
10
1
And having called to him his twelve disciples, he gave to them power over unclean spirits, so as to be casting them out, and to be healing every sickness, and every malady.
field: 40010002
40
10
2
And of the twelve apostles the names are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James of Zebedee, and John his brother;
field: 40010003
40
10
3
Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the tax-gatherer; James of Alpheus, and Lebbeus who was surnamed Thaddeus;
field: 40010004
40
10
4
Simon the Cananite, and Judas Iscariot, who did also deliver him up.
field: 40010005
40
10
5
These twelve did Jesus send forth, having given command to them, saying, `To the way of the nations go not away, and into a city of the Samaritans go not in,
field: 40010006
40
10
6
and be going rather unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
field: 40010007
40
10
7
`And, going on, proclaim saying that, the reign of the heavens hath come nigh;
field: 40010008
40
10
8
infirm ones be healing, lepers be cleansing, dead be raising, demons be casting out -- freely ye did receive, freely give.
field: 40010009
40
10
9
`Provide not gold, nor silver, nor brass in your girdles,
field: 40010010
40
10
10
nor scrip for the way, nor two coats, nor sandals, nor staff -- for the workman is worthy of his nourishment.
field: 40010011
40
10
11
`And into whatever city or village ye may enter, inquire ye who in it is worthy, and there abide, till ye may go forth.
field: 40010012
40
10
12
And coming to the house salute it,
field: 40010013
40
10
13
and if indeed the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it; and if it be not worthy, let your peace turn back to you.
field: 40010014
40
10
14
`And whoever may not receive you nor hear your words, coming forth from that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet,
field: 40010015
40
10
15
verily I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
field: 40010016
40
10
16
`Lo, I do send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves, be ye therefore wise as the serpents, and simple as the doves.
field: 40010017
40
10
17
And, take ye heed of men, for they will give you up to sanhedrims, and in their synagogues they will scourge you,
field: 40010018
40
10
18
and before governors and kings ye shall be brought for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
field: 40010019
40
10
19
`And whenever they may deliver you up, be not anxious how or what ye may speak, for it shall be given you in that hour what ye shall speak;
field: 40010020
40
10
20
for ye are not the speakers, but the Spirit of your Father that is speaking in you.
field: 40010021
40
10
21
`And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and father child, and children shall rise up against parents, and shall put them to death,
field: 40010022
40
10
22
and ye shall be hated by all because of my name, but he who hath endured to the end, he shall be saved.
field: 40010023
40
10
23
`And whenever they may persecute you in this city, flee to the other, for verily I say to you, ye may not have completed the cities of Israel till the Son of Man may come.
field: 40010024
40
10
24
`A disciple is not above the teacher, nor a servant above his lord;
field: 40010025
40
10
25
sufficient to the disciple that he may be as his teacher, and the servant as his lord; if the master of the house they did call Beelzeboul, how much more those of his household?
field: 40010026
40
10
26
`Ye may not, therefore, fear them, for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed, and hid, that shall not be known;
field: 40010027
40
10
27
that which I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light, and that which you hear at the ear, proclaim on the house-tops.

`And be not afraid of those killing the body, and are not able to kill the soul, but fear rather Him who is able both soul and body to destroy in gehenna.

`Are not two sparrows sold for an assar? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father;

be not therefore afraid, than many sparrows ye are better.

`Every one, therefore, who shall confess in me before men, I also will confess in him before my Father who is in the heavens;

34
`Ye may not suppose that I came to put peace on the earth; I did not come to put peace, but a sword;
field: 40010035

35
for I came to set a man at variance against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law,
field: 40010036
40

36
and the enemies of a man are those of his household.

field: 40011001
40

And it came to pass, when Jesus ended directing his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities.
field: 40011002
40
11
2
And John having heard in the prison the works of the Christ, having sent two of his disciples,
field: 40011003
40
11
3
said to him, `Art thou He who is coming, or for another do we look?'
field: 40011004
40
11
4
And Jesus answering said to them, `Having gone, declare to John the things that ye hear and see,
field: 40011005
40
11
5
blind receive sight, and lame walk, lepers are cleansed, and deaf hear, dead are raised, and poor have good news proclaimed,
field: 40011006
40
11
6
and happy is he who may not be stumbled in me.'
field: 40011007
40
11
7
And as they are going, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, `What went ye out to the wilderness to view? -- a reed shaken by the wind?
field: 40011008
40
11
8
`But what went ye out to see? -- a man clothed in soft garments? lo, those wearing the soft things are in the kings' houses.
field: 40011009
40
11
9
`But what went ye out to see? -- a prophet? yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet,
field: 40011010
40
11
10
for this is he of whom it hath been written, Lo, I do send My messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
field: 40011011
40
11
11
Verily I say to you, there hath not risen, among those born of women, a greater than John the Baptist, but he who is least in the reign of the heavens is greater than he.
field: 40011012
40
11
12
`And, from the days of John the Baptist till now, the reign of the heavens doth suffer violence, and violent men do take it by force,
field: 40011013
40
11
13
for all the prophets and the law till John did prophesy,
field: 40011014
40
11
14
and if ye are willing to receive `it', he is Elijah who was about to come;
field: 40011015
40
11
15
he who is having ears to hear -- let him hear.
field: 40011016
40
11
16
`And to what shall I liken this generation? it is like little children in market-places, sitting and calling to their comrades,
field: 40011017
40
11
17
and saying, We piped unto you, and ye did not dance, we lamented to you, and ye did not smite the breast.
field: 40011018
40
11
18
`For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a demon;
field: 40011019
40
11
19
the Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, Lo, a man, a glutton, and a wine-drinker, a friend of tax-gatherers and sinners, and wisdom was justified of her children.'
field: 40011020
40
11
20
Then began he to reproach the cities in which were done most of his mighty works, because they did not reform.
field: 40011021
40
11
21
`Wo to thee, Chorazin! wo to thee, Bethsaida! because, if in Tyre and Sidon had been done the mighty works that were done in you, long ago in sackcloth and ashes they had reformed;
field: 40011022
40
11
22
but I say to you, to Tyre and Sidon it shall be more tolerable in a day of judgment than for you.
field: 40011023
40
11
23
`And thou, Capernaum, which unto the heaven wast exalted, unto hades shalt be brought down, because if in Sodom had been done the mighty works that were done in thee, it had remained unto this day;
field: 40011024
40
11
24
but I say to you, to the land of Sodom it shall be more tolerable in a day of judgment than to thee.'
field: 40011025
40
11
25
At that time Jesus answering said, `I do confess to Thee, Father, Lord of the heavens and of the earth, that thou didst hide these things from wise and understanding ones, and didst reveal them to babes.
field: 40011026
40
11
26
Yes, Father, because so it was good pleasure before Thee.
field: 40011027
40
11
27
`All things were delivered to me by my Father, and none doth know the Son, except the Father, nor doth any know the Father, except the Son, and he to whom the Son may wish to reveal `Him'.
field: 40011028
40
11
28
`Come unto me, all ye labouring and burdened ones, and I will give you rest,
field: 40011029
40
11
29
take up my yoke upon you, and learn from me, because I am meek and humble in heart, and ye shall find rest to your souls,
field: 40011030
40
11
30
for my yoke `is' easy, and my burden is light.'
field: 40012001
40
12
1
At that time did Jesus go on the sabbaths through the corn, and his disciples were hungry, and they began to pluck ears, and to eat,
field: 40012002
40
12
2
and the Pharisees having seen, said to him, `Lo, thy disciples do that which it is not lawful to do on a sabbath.'
field: 40012003
40
12
3
And he said to them, `Did ye not read what David did, when he was hungry, himself and those with him --
field: 40012004
40
12
4
how he went into the house of God, and the loaves of the presentation did eat, which it is not lawful to him to eat, nor to those with him, except to the priests alone?
field: 40012005
40
12
5
`Or did ye not read in the Law, that on the sabbaths the priests in the temple do profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
field: 40012006
40
12
6
and I say to you, that a greater than the temple is here;
field: 40012007
40
12
7
and if ye had known what is: Kindness I will, and not sacrifice -- ye had not condemned the blameless,
field: 40012008
40
12
8
for the son of man is lord even of the sabbath.'
field: 40012009
40
12
9
And having departed thence, he went to their synagogue,
field: 40012010
40
12
10
and lo, there was a man having the hand withered, and they questioned him, saying, `Is it lawful to heal on the sabbaths?' that they might accuse him.
field: 40012011
40
12
11
And he said to them, `What man shall be of you, who shall have one sheep, and if this may fall on the sabbaths into a ditch, will not lay hold on it and raise `it'?
field: 40012012
40
12
12
How much better, therefore, is a man than a sheep? -- so that it is lawful on the sabbaths to do good.'
field: 40012013
40
12
13
Then saith he to the man, `Stretch forth thy hand,' and he stretched `it' forth, and it was restored whole as the other.
field: 40012014
40
12
14
And the Pharisees having gone forth, held a consultation against him, how they might destroy him,
field: 40012015
40
12
15
and Jesus having known, withdrew thence, and there followed him great multitudes, and he healed them all,
field: 40012016
40
12
16
and did charge them that they might not make him manifest,
field: 40012017
40
12
17
that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
field: 40012018
40
12
18
`Lo, My servant, whom I did choose, My beloved, in whom My soul did delight, I will put My Spirit upon him, and judgment to the nations he shall declare,
field: 40012019
40
12
19
he shall not strive nor cry, nor shall any hear in the broad places his voice,
field: 40012020
40
12
20
a bruised reed he shall not break, and smoking flax he shall not quench, till he may put forth judgment to victory,
field: 40012021
40
12
21
and in his name shall nations hope.'
field: 40012022
40
12
22
Then was brought to him a demoniac, blind and dumb, and he healed him, so that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.
field: 40012023
40
12
23
And all the multitudes were amazed, and said, `Is this the Son of David?'
field: 40012024
40
12
24
but the Pharisees having heard, said, `This one doth not cast out demons, except by Beelzeboul, ruler of the demons.'
field: 40012025
40
12
25
And Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said to them, `Every kingdom having been divided against itself is desolated, and no city or house having been divided against itself, doth stand,
field: 40012026
40
12
26
and if the Adversary doth cast out the Adversary, against himself he was divided, how then doth his kingdom stand?
field: 40012027
40
12
27
`And if I, by Beelzeboul, do cast out the demons, your sons -- by whom do they cast out? because of this they -- they shall be your judges.
field: 40012028
40
12
28
`But if I, by the Spirit of God, do cast out the demons, then come already unto you did the reign of God.
field: 40012029
40
12
29
`Or how is one able to go into the house of the strong man, and to plunder his goods, if first he may not bind the strong man? and then his house he will plunder.
field: 40012030
40
12
30
`He who is not with me is against me, and he who is not gathering with me, doth scatter.
field: 40012031
40
12
31
Because of this I say to you, all sin and evil speaking shall be forgiven to men, but the evil speaking of the Spirit shall not be forgiven to men.
field: 40012032
40
12
32
And whoever may speak a word against the Son of Man it shall be forgiven to him, but whoever may speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this age, nor in that which is coming.
field: 40012033
40
12
33
`Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad, for from the fruit is the tree known.
field: 40012034
40
12
34
`Brood of vipers! how are ye able to speak good things -- being evil? for out of the abundance of the heart doth the mouth speak.
field: 40012035
40
12
35
The good man out of the good treasure of the heart doth put forth the good things, and the evil man out of the evil treasure doth put forth evil things.
field: 40012036
40
12
36
`And I say to you, that every idle word that men may speak, they shall give for it a reckoning in a day of judgment;
field: 40012037
40
12
37
for from thy words thou shalt be declared righteous, and from thy words thou shalt be declared unrighteous.'
field: 40012038
40
12
38
Then answered certain of the scribes and Pharisees, saying, `Teacher, we will to see a sign from thee.'
field: 40012039
40
12
39
And he answering said to them, `A generation, evil and adulterous, doth seek a sign, and a sign shall not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet;
field: 40012040
40
12
40
for, as Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights, so shall the Son of Man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.
field: 40012041
40
12
41
`Men of Nineveh shall stand up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it, for they reformed at the proclamation of Jonah, and lo, a greater than Jonah here!
field: 40012042
40
12
42
`A queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and lo, a greater than Solomon here!
field: 40012043
40
12
43
`And, when the unclean spirit may go forth from the man, it doth walk through dry places seeking rest, and doth not find;
field: 40012044
40
12
44
then it saith, I will turn back to my house whence I came forth; and having come, it findeth `it' unoccupied, swept, and adorned:
field: 40012045
40
12
45
then doth it go, and take with itself seven other spirits more evil than itself, and having gone in they dwell there, and the last of that man doth become worse than the first; so shall it be also to this evil generation.'
field: 40012046
40
12
46
And while he was yet speaking to the multitudes, lo, his mother and brethren had stood without, seeking to speak to him,
field: 40012047
40
12
47
and one said to him, `Lo, thy mother and thy brethren do stand without, seeking to speak to thee.'
field: 40012048
40
12
48
And he answering said to him who spake to him, `Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?'
field: 40012049
40
12
49
And having stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, he said, `Lo, my mother and my brethren!
field: 40012050
40
12
50
for whoever may do the will of my Father who is in the heavens, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.'
field: 40013001
40
13
1
And in that day Jesus, having gone forth from the house, was sitting by the sea,
field: 40013002
40
13
2
and gathered together unto him were many multitudes, so that he having gone into the boat did sit down, and all the multitude on the beach did stand,
field: 40013003
40
13
3
and he spake to them many things in similes, saying: `Lo, the sower went forth to sow,
field: 40013004
40
13
4
and in his sowing, some indeed fell by the way, and the fowls did come and devour them,
field: 40013005
40
13
5
and others fell upon the rocky places, where they had not much earth, and immediately they sprang forth, through not having depth of earth,
field: 40013006
40
13
6
and the sun having risen they were scorched, and through not having root, they withered,
field: 40013007
40
13
7
and others fell upon the thorns, and the thorns did come up and choke them,
field: 40013008
40
13
8
and others fell upon the good ground, and were giving fruit, some indeed a hundredfold, and some sixty, and some thirty.
field: 40013009
40
13
9
He who is having ears to hear -- let him hear.'
field: 40013010
40
13
10
And the disciples having come near, said to him, `Wherefore in similes dost thou speak to them?'
field: 40013011
40
13
11
And he answering said to them that -- `To you it hath been given to know the secrets of the reign of the heavens, and to these it hath not been given,
field: 40013012
40
13
12
for whoever hath, it shall be given to him, and he shall have overabundance, and whoever hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken from him.
field: 40013013
40
13
13
`Because of this, in similes do I speak to them, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor understand,
field: 40013014
40
13
14
and fulfilled on them is the prophecy of Isaiah, that saith, With hearing ye shall hear, and ye shall not understand, and seeing ye shall see, and ye shall not perceive,
field: 40013015
40
13
15
for made gross was the heart of this people, and with the ears they heard heavily, and their eyes they did close, lest they might see with the eyes, and with the ears might hear, and with the heart understand, and turn back, and I might heal them.
field: 40013016
40
13
16
`And happy are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear,
field: 40013017
40
13
17
for verily I say to you, that many prophets and righteous men did desire to see that which ye look on, and they did not see, and to hear that which ye hear, and they did not hear.
field: 40013018
40
13
18
`Ye, therefore, hear ye the simile of the sower:
field: 40013019
40
13
19
Every one hearing the word of the reign, and not understanding -- the evil one doth come, and doth catch that which hath been sown in his heart; this is that sown by the way.
field: 40013020
40
13
20
`And that sown on the rocky places, this is he who is hearing the word, and immediately with joy is receiving it,
field: 40013021
40
13
21
and he hath not root in himself, but is temporary, and persecution or tribulation having happened because of the word, immediately he is stumbled.
field: 40013022
40
13
22
`And that sown toward the thorns, this is he who is hearing the word, and the anxiety of this age, and the deceitfulness of the riches, do choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
field: 40013023
40
13
23
`And that sown on the good ground: this is he who is hearing the word, and is understanding, who indeed doth bear fruit, and doth make, some indeed a hundredfold, and some sixty, and some thirty.'
field: 40013024
40
13
24
Another simile he set before them, saying: `The reign of the heavens was likened to a man sowing good seed in his field,
field: 40013025
40
13
25
and, while men are sleeping, his enemy came and sowed darnel in the midst of the wheat, and went away,
field: 40013026
40
13
26
and when the herb sprang up, and yielded fruit, then appeared also the darnel.
field: 40013027
40
13
27
`And the servants of the householder, having come near, said to him, Sir, good seed didst thou not sow in thy field? whence then hath it the darnel?
field: 40013028
40
13
28
And he saith to them, A man, an enemy, did this; and the servants said to him, Wilt thou, then, `that' having gone away we may gather it up?
field: 40013029
40
13
29
`And he said, No, lest -- gathering up the darnel -- ye root up with it the wheat,
field: 40013030
40
13
30
suffer both to grow together till the harvest, and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather up first the darnel, and bind it in bundles, to burn it, and the wheat gather up into my storehouse.'
field: 40013031
40
13
31
Another simile he set before them, saying: `The reign of the heavens is like to a grain of mustard, which a man having taken, did sow in his field,
field: 40013032
40
13
32
which less, indeed, is than all the seeds, but when it may be grown, is greatest of the herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the heaven do come and rest in its branches.'
field: 40013033
40
13
33
Another simile spake he to them: `The reign of the heavens is like to leaven, which a woman having taken, hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.'
field: 40013034
40
13
34
All these things spake Jesus in similes to the multitudes, and without a simile he was not speaking to them,
field: 40013035
40
13
35
that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through the prophet, saying, `I will open in similes my mouth, I will utter things having been hidden from the foundation of the world.'
field: 40013036
40
13
36
Then having let away the multitudes, Jesus came to the house, and his disciples came near to him, saying, `Explain to us the simile of the darnel of the field.'
field: 40013037
40
13
37
And he answering said to them, `He who is sowing the good seed is the Son of Man,
field: 40013038
40
13
38
and the field is the world, and the good seed, these are the sons of the reign, and the darnel are the sons of the evil one,
field: 40013039
40
13
39
and the enemy who sowed them is the devil, and the harvest is a full end of the age, and the reapers are messengers.
field: 40013040
40
13
40
`As, then, the darnel is gathered up, and is burned with fire, so shall it be in the full end of this age,
field: 40013041
40
13
41
the Son of Man shall send forth his messengers, and they shall gather up out of his kingdom all the stumbling-blocks, and those doing the unlawlessness,
field: 40013042
40
13
42
and shall cast them to the furnace of the fire; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.
field: 40013043
40
13
43
`Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the reign of their Father. He who is having ears to hear -- let him hear.
field: 40013044
40
13
44
`Again, the reign of the heavens is like to treasure hid in the field, which a man having found did hide, and from his joy goeth, and all, as much as he hath, he selleth, and buyeth that field.
field: 40013045
40
13
45
`Again, the reign of the heavens is like to a man, a merchant, seeking goodly pearls,
field: 40013046
40
13
46
who having found one pearl of great price, having gone away, hath sold all, as much as he had, and bought it.
field: 40013047
40
13
47
`Again, the reign of the heavens is like to a net that was cast into the sea, and did gather together of every kind,
field: 40013048
40
13
48
which, when it was filled, having drawn up again upon the beach, and having sat down, they gathered the good into vessels, and the bad they did cast out,
field: 40013049
40
13
49
so shall it be in the full end of the age, the messengers shall come forth and separate the evil out of the midst of the righteous,
field: 40013050
40
13
50
and shall cast them to the furnace of the fire, there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.'
field: 40013051
40
13
51
Jesus saith to them, `Did ye understand all these?' They say to him, `Yes, sir.'
field: 40013052
40
13
52
And he said to them, `Because of this every scribe having been discipled in regard to the reign of the heavens, is like to a man, a householder, who doth bring forth out of his treasure things new and old.'
field: 40013053
40
13
53
And it came to pass, when Jesus finished these similes, he removed thence,
field: 40013054
40
13
54
and having come to his own country, he was teaching them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and were saying, `Whence to this one this wisdom and the mighty works?
field: 40013055
40
13
55
is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary, and his brethren James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
field: 40013056
40
13
56
and his sisters -- are they not all with us? whence, then, to this one all these?'
field: 40013057
40
13
57
and they were stumbled at him. And Jesus said to them, `A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, and in his own house:'
field: 40013058
40
13
58
and he did not there many mighty works, because of their unbelief.
field: 40014001
40
14
1
At that time did Herod the tetrarch hear the fame of Jesus,
field: 40014002
40
14
2
and said to his servants, `This is John the Baptist, he did rise from the dead, and because of this the mighty energies are working in him.'
field: 40014003
40
14
3
For Herod having laid hold on John, did bind him, and did put him in prison, because of Herodias his brother Philip's wife,
field: 40014004
40
14
4
for John was saying to him, `It is not lawful to thee to have her,'
field: 40014005
40
14
5
and, willing to kill him, he feared the multitude, because as a prophet they were holding him.
field: 40014006
40
14
6
But the birthday of Herod being kept, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and did please Herod,
field: 40014007
40
14
7
whereupon with an oath he professed to give her whatever she might ask.
field: 40014008
40
14
8
And she having been instigated by her mother -- `Give me (says she) here upon a plate the head of John the Baptist;
field: 40014009
40
14
9
and the king was grieved, but because of the oaths and of those reclining with him, he commanded `it' to be given;
field: 40014010
40
14
10
and having sent, he beheaded John in the prison,
field: 40014011
40
14
11
and his head was brought upon a plate, and was given to the damsel, and she brought `it' nigh to her mother.
field: 40014012
40
14
12
And his disciples having come, took up the body, and buried it, and having come, they told Jesus,
field: 40014013
40
14
13
and Jesus having heard, withdrew thence in a boat to a desolate place by himself, and the multitudes having heard did follow him on land from the cities.
field: 40014014
40
14
14
And Jesus having come forth, saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion upon them, and did heal their infirm;
field: 40014015
40
14
15
and evening having come, his disciples came to him, saying, `The place is desolate, and the hour hath now past, let away the multitudes that, having gone to the villages, they may buy to themselves food.'
field: 40014016
40
14
16
And Jesus said to them, `They have no need to go away -- give ye them to eat.'
field: 40014017
40
14
17
And they say to him, `We have not here except five loaves, and two fishes.'
field: 40014018
40
14
18
And he said, `Bring ye them to me hither.'
field: 40014019
40
14
19
And having commanded the multitudes to recline upon the grass, and having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, he did bless, and having broken, he gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes,
field: 40014020
40
14
20
and they did all eat, and were filled, and they took up what was over of the broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full;
field: 40014021
40
14
21
and those eating were about five thousand men, apart from women and children.
field: 40014022
40
14
22
And immediately Jesus constrained his disciples to go into the boat, and to go before him to the other side, till he might let away the multitudes;
field: 40014023
40
14
23
and having let away the multitudes, he went up to the mountain by himself to pray, and evening having come, he was there alone,
field: 40014024
40
14
24
and the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
field: 40014025
40
14
25
And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went away to them, walking upon the sea,
field: 40014026
40
14
26
and the disciples having seen him walking upon the sea, were troubled saying -- `It is an apparition,' and from the fear they cried out;
field: 40014027
40
14
27
and immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, `Be of good courage, I am `he', be not afraid.'
field: 40014028
40
14
28
And Peter answering him said, `Sir, if it is thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters;'
field: 40014029
40
14
29
and he said, `Come;' and having gone down from the boat, Peter walked upon the waters to come unto Jesus,
field: 40014030
40
14
30
but seeing the wind vehement, he was afraid, and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, `Sir, save me.'
field: 40014031
40
14
31
And immediately Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, laid hold of him, and saith to him, `Little faith! for what didst thou waver?'
field: 40014032
40
14
32
and they having gone to the boat the wind lulled,
field: 40014033
40
14
33
and those in the boat having come, did bow to him, saying, `Truly -- God's Son art thou.'
field: 40014034
40
14
34
And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret,
field: 40014035
40
14
35
and having recognized him, the men of that place sent forth to all that region round about, and they brought to him all who were ill,
field: 40014036
40
14
36
and were calling on him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment, and as many as did touch were saved.
field: 40015001
40
15
1
Then come unto Jesus do they from Jerusalem -- scribes and Pharisees -- saying,
field: 40015002
40
15
2
`Wherefore do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they do not wash their hands when they may eat bread.'
field: 40015003
40
15
3
And he answering said to them, `Wherefore also do ye transgress the command of God because of your tradition?
field: 40015004
40
15
4
for God did command, saying, Honour thy father and mother; and, He who is speaking evil of father or mother -- let him die the death;
field: 40015005
40
15
5
but ye say, Whoever may say to father or mother, An offering `is' whatever thou mayest be profited by me; --
field: 40015006
40
15
6
and he may not honour his father or his mother, and ye did set aside the command of God because of your tradition.
field: 40015007
40
15
7
`Hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,
field: 40015008
40
15
8
This people doth draw nigh to Me with their mouth, and with the lips it doth honour Me, but their heart is far off from Me;
field: 40015009
40
15
9
and in vain do they worship Me, teaching teachings -- commands of men.'
field: 40015010
40
15
10
And having called near the multitude, he said to them, `Hear and understand:
field: 40015011
40
15
11
not that which is coming into the mouth doth defile the man, but that which is coming forth from the mouth, this defileth the man.'
field: 40015012
40
15
12
Then his disciples having come near, said to him, `Hast thou known that the Pharisees, having heard the word, were stumbled?'
field: 40015013
40
15
13
And he answering said, `Every plant that my heavenly Father did not plant shall be rooted up;
field: 40015014
40
15
14
let them alone, guides they are -- blind of blind; and if blind may guide blind, both into a ditch shall fall.'
field: 40015015
40
15
15
And Peter answering said to him, `Explain to us this simile.'
field: 40015016
40
15
16
And Jesus said, `Are ye also yet without understanding?
field: 40015017
40
15
17
do ye not understand that all that is going into the mouth doth pass into the belly, and into the drain is cast forth?
field: 40015018
40
15
18
but the things coming forth from the mouth from the heart do come forth, and these defile the man;
field: 40015019
40
15
19
for out of the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, whoredoms, thefts, false witnessings, evil speakings:
field: 40015020
40
15
20
these are the things defiling the man; but to eat with unwashen hands doth not defile the man.'
field: 40015021
40
15
21
And Jesus having come forth thence, withdrew to the parts of Tyre and Sidon,
field: 40015022
40
15
22
and lo, a woman, a Canaanitess, from those borders having come forth, did call to him, saying, `Deal kindly with me, Sir -- Son of David; my daughter is miserably demonized.'
field: 40015023
40
15
23
And he did not answer her a word; and his disciples having come to him, were asking him, saying -- `Let her away, because she crieth after us;'
field: 40015024
40
15
24
and he answering said, `I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.'
field: 40015025
40
15
25
And having come, she was bowing to him, saying, `Sir, help me;'
field: 40015026
40
15
26
and he answering said, `It is not good to take the children's bread, and to cast to the little dogs.'
field: 40015027
40
15
27
And she said, `Yes, sir, for even the little dogs do eat of the crumbs that are falling from their lords' table;'
field: 40015028
40
15
28
then answering, Jesus said to her, `O woman, great `is' thy faith, let it be to thee as thou wilt;' and her daughter was healed from that hour.
field: 40015029
40
15
29
And Jesus having passed thence, came nigh unto the sea of Galilee, and having gone up to the mountain, he was sitting there,
field: 40015030
40
15
30
and there came to him great multitudes, having with them lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and they did cast them at the feet of Jesus, and he healed them,
field: 40015031
40
15
31
so that the multitudes did wonder, seeing dumb ones speaking, maimed whole, lame walking, and blind seeing; and they glorified the God of Israel.
field: 40015032
40
15
32
And Jesus having called near his disciples, said, `I have compassion upon the multitude, because now three days they continue with me, and they have not what they may eat; and to let them away fasting I will not, lest they faint in the way.'
field: 40015033
40
15
33
And his disciples say to him, `Whence to us, in a wilderness, so many loaves, as to fill so great a multitude?'
field: 40015034
40
15
34
And Jesus saith to them, `How many loaves have ye?' and they said, `Seven, and a few little fishes.'
field: 40015035
40
15
35
And he commanded the multitudes to sit down upon the ground,
field: 40015036
40
15
36
and having taken the seven loaves and the fishes, having given thanks, he did break, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
field: 40015037
40
15
37
And they did all eat, and were filled, and they took up what was over of the broken pieces seven baskets full,
field: 40015038
40
15
38
and those eating were four thousand men, apart from women and children.
field: 40015039
40
15
39
And having let away the multitudes, he went into the boat, and did come to the borders of Magdala.
field: 40016001
40
16
1
And the Pharisees and Sadducees having come, tempting, did question him, to shew to them a sign from the heaven,
field: 40016002
40
16
2
and he answering said to them, `Evening having come, ye say, Fair weather, for the heaven is red,
field: 40016003
40
16
3
and at morning, Foul weather to-day, for the heaven is red -- gloomy; hypocrites, the face of the heavens indeed ye do know to discern, but the signs of the times ye are not able!
field: 40016004
40
16
4
`A generation evil and adulterous doth seek a sign, and a sign shall not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet;' and having left them he went away.
field: 40016005
40
16
5
And his disciples having come to the other side, forgot to take loaves,
field: 40016006
40
16
6
and Jesus said to them, `Beware, and take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees;'
field: 40016007
40
16
7
and they were reasoning in themselves, saying, `Because we took no loaves.'
field: 40016008
40
16
8
And Jesus having known, said to them, `Why reason ye in yourselves, ye of little faith, because ye took no loaves?
field: 40016009
40
16
9
do ye not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many hand-baskets ye took up?
field: 40016010
40
16
10
nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
field: 40016011
40
16
11
how do ye not understand that I did not speak to you of bread -- to take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?'
field: 40016012
40
16
12
Then they understood that he did not say to take heed of the leaven of the bread, but of the teaching, of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
field: 40016013
40
16
13
And Jesus, having come to the parts of Cesarea Philippi, was asking his disciples, saying, `Who do men say me to be -- the Son of Man?'
field: 40016014
40
16
14
and they said, `Some, John the Baptist, and others, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.'
field: 40016015
40
16
15
He saith to them, `And ye -- who do ye say me to be?'
field: 40016016
40
16
16
and Simon Peter answering said, `Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.'
field: 40016017
40
16
17
And Jesus answering said to him, `Happy art thou, Simon Bar-Jona, because flesh and blood did not reveal `it' to thee, but my Father who is in the heavens.
field: 40016018
40
16
18
`And I also say to thee, that thou art a rock, and upon this rock I will build my assembly, and gates of Hades shall not prevail against it;
field: 40016019
40
16
19
and I will give to thee the keys of the reign of the heavens, and whatever thou mayest bind upon the earth shall be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever thou mayest loose upon the earth shall be having been loosed in the heavens.'
field: 40016020
40
16
20
Then did he charge his disciples that they may say to no one that he is Jesus the Christ.
field: 40016021
40
16
21
From that time began Jesus to shew to his disciples that it is necessary for him to go away to Jerusalem, and to suffer many things from the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and to be put to death, and the third day to rise.
field: 40016022
40
16
22
And having taken him aside, Peter began to rebuke him, saying, `Be kind to thyself, sir; this shall not be to thee;'
field: 40016023
40
16
23
and he having turned, said to Peter, `Get thee behind me, adversary! thou art a stumbling-block to me, for thou dost not mind the things of God, but the things of men.'
field: 40016024
40
16
24
Then said Jesus to his disciples, `If any one doth will to come after me, let him disown himself, and take up his cross, and follow me,
field: 40016025
40
16
25
for whoever may will to save his life, shall lose it, and whoever may lose his life for my sake shall find it,
field: 40016026
40
16
26
for what is a man profited if he may gain the whole world, but of his life suffer loss? or what shall a man give as an exchange for his life?
field: 40016027
40
16
27
`For, the Son of Man is about to come in the glory of his Father, with his messengers, and then he will reward each, according to his work.
field: 40016028
40
16
28
Verily I say to you, there are certain of those standing here who shall not taste of death till they may see the Son of Man coming in his reign.'
field: 40017001
40
17
1
And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, and James, and John his brother, and doth bring them up to a high mount by themselves,
field: 40017002
40
17
2
and he was transfigured before them, and his face shone as the sun, and his garments did become white as the light,
field: 40017003
40
17
3
and lo, appear to them did Moses and Elijah, talking together with him.
field: 40017004
40
17
4
And Peter answering said to Jesus, `Sir, it is good to us to be here; if thou wilt, we may make here three booths -- for thee one, and for Moses one, and one for Elijah.'
field: 40017005
40
17
5
While he is yet speaking, lo, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and lo, a voice out of the cloud, saying, `This is My Son, -- the Beloved, in whom I did delight; hear him.'
field: 40017006
40
17
6
And the disciples having heard, did fall upon their face, and were exceedingly afraid,
field: 40017007
40
17
7
and Jesus having come near, touched them, and said, `Rise, be not afraid,'
field: 40017008
40
17
8
and having lifted up their eyes, they saw no one, except Jesus only.
field: 40017009
40
17
9
And as they are coming down from the mount, Jesus charged them, saying, `Say to no one the vision, till the Son of Man out of the dead may rise.'
field: 40017010
40
17
10
And his disciples questioned him, saying, `Why then do the scribes say that Elijah it behoveth to come first?'
field: 40017011
40
17
11
And Jesus answering said to them, `Elijah doth indeed come first, and shall restore all things,
field: 40017012
40
17
12
and I say to you -- Elijah did already come, and they did not know him, but did with him whatever they would, so also the Son of Man is about to suffer by them.'
field: 40017013
40
17
13
Then understood the disciples that concerning John the Baptist he spake to them.
field: 40017014
40
17
14
And when they came unto the multitude, there came to him a man, kneeling down to him,
field: 40017015
40
17
15
and saying, `Sir, deal kindly with my son, for he is lunatic, and doth suffer miserably, for often he doth fall into the fire, and often into the water,
field: 40017016
40
17
16
and I brought him near to thy disciples, and they were not able to heal him.'
field: 40017017
40
17
17
And Jesus answering said, `O generation, unstedfast and perverse, till when shall I be with you? till when shall I bear you? bring him to me hither;'
field: 40017018
40
17
18
and Jesus rebuked him, and the demon went out of him, and the lad was healed from that hour.
field: 40017019
40
17
19
Then the disciples having come to Jesus by himself, said, `Wherefore were we not able to cast him out?'
field: 40017020
40
17
20
And Jesus said to them, `Through your want of faith; for verily I say to you, if ye may have faith as a grain of mustard, ye shall say to this mount, Remove hence to yonder place, and it shall remove, and nothing shall be impossible to you,
field: 40017021
40
17
21
and this kind doth not go forth except in prayer and fasting.'
field: 40017022
40
17
22
And while they are living in Galilee, Jesus said to them, `The Son of Man is about to be delivered up to the hands of men,
field: 40017023
40
17
23
and they shall kill him, and the third day he shall rise,' and they were exceeding sorry.
field: 40017024
40
17
24
And they having come to Capernaum, those receiving the didrachms came near to Peter, and said, `Your teacher -- doth he not pay the didrachms?' He saith, `Yes.'
field: 40017025
40
17
25
And when he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, `What thinkest thou, Simon? the kings of the earth -- from whom do they receive custom or poll-tax? from their sons or from the strangers?'
field: 40017026
40
17
26
Peter saith to him, `From the strangers.' Jesus said to him, `Then are the sons free;
field: 40017027
40
17
27
but, that we may not cause them to stumble, having gone to the sea, cast a hook, and the fish that hath come up first take thou up, and having opened its mouth, thou shalt find a stater, that having taken, give to them for me and thee.'
field: 40018001
40
18
1
At that hour came the disciples near to Jesus, saying, `Who, now, is greater in the reign of the heavens?'
field: 40018002
40
18
2
And Jesus having called near a child, did set him in the midst of them,
field: 40018003
40
18
3
and said, `Verily I say to you, if ye may not be turned and become as the children, ye may not enter into the reign of the heavens;
field: 40018004
40
18
4
whoever then may humble himself as this child, he is the greater in the reign of the heavens.
field: 40018005
40
18
5
`And he who may receive one such child in my name, doth receive me,
field: 40018006
40
18
6
and whoever may cause to stumble one of those little ones who are believing in me, it is better for him that a weighty millstone may be hanged upon his neck, and he may be sunk in the depth of the sea.
field: 40018007
40
18
7
`Wo to the world from the stumbling-blocks! for there is a necessity for the stumbling-blocks to come, but wo to that man through whom the stumbling-block doth come!
field: 40018008
40
18
8
`And if thy hand or thy foot doth cause thee to stumble, cut them off and cast from thee; it is good for thee to enter into the life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast to the fire the age-during.
field: 40018009
40
18
9
`And if thine eye doth cause thee to stumble, pluck it out and cast from thee; it is good for thee one-eyed to enter into the life, rather than having two eyes to be cast to the gehenna of the fire.
field: 40018010
40
18
10
`Beware! -- ye may not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you, that their messengers in the heavens do always behold the face of my Father who is in the heavens,
field: 40018011
40
18
11
for the Son of Man did come to save the lost.
field: 40018012
40
18
12
`What think ye? if a man may have an hundred sheep, and there may go astray one of them, doth he not -- having left the ninety-nine, having gone on the mountains -- seek that which is gone astray?
field: 40018013
40
18
13
and if it may come to pass that he doth find it, verily I say to you, that he doth rejoice over it more than over the ninety-nine that have not gone astray;
field: 40018014
40
18
14
so it is not will in presence of your Father who is in the heavens, that one of these little ones may perish.
field: 40018015
40
18
15
`And if thy brother may sin against thee, go and show him his fault between thee and him alone, if he may hear thee, thou didst gain thy brother;
field: 40018016
40
18
16
and if he may not hear, take with thee yet one or two, that by the mouth of two witnesses or three every word may stand.
field: 40018017
40
18
17
`And if he may not hear them, say `it' to the assembly, and if also the assembly he may not hear, let him be to thee as the heathen man and the tax-gatherer.
field: 40018018
40
18
18
`Verily I say to you, Whatever things ye may bind upon the earth shall be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever things ye may loose on the earth shall be having been loosed in the heavens.
field: 40018019
40
18
19
`Again, I say to you, that, if two of you may agree on the earth concerning anything, whatever they may ask -- it shall be done to them from my Father who is in the heavens,
field: 40018020
40
18
20
for where there are two or three gathered together -- to my name, there am I in the midst of them.'
field: 40018021
40
18
21
Then Peter having come near to him, said, `Sir, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him -- till seven times?'
field: 40018022
40
18
22
Jesus saith to him, `I do not say to thee till seven times, but till seventy times seven.
field: 40018023
40
18
23
`Because of this was the reign of the heavens likened to a man, a king, who did will to take reckoning with his servants,
field: 40018024
40
18
24
and he having begun to take account, there was brought near to him one debtor of a myriad of talents,
field: 40018025
40
18
25
and he having nothing to pay, his lord did command him to be sold, and his wife, and the children, and all, whatever he had, and payment to be made.
field: 40018026
40
18
26
The servant then, having fallen down, was bowing to him, saying, Sir, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all;
field: 40018027
40
18
27
and the lord of that servant having been moved with compassion did release him, and the debt he forgave him.
field: 40018028
40
18
28
`And, that servant having come forth, found one of his fellow-servants who was owing him an hundred denaries, and having laid hold, he took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that which thou owest.
field: 40018029
40
18
29
His fellow-servant then, having fallen down at his feet, was calling on him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all;
field: 40018030
40
18
30
and he would not, but having gone away, he cast him into prison, till he might pay that which was owing.
field: 40018031
40
18
31
`And his fellow-servants having seen the things that were done, were grieved exceedingly, and having come, shewed fully to their lord all the things that were done;
field: 40018032
40
18
32
then having called him, his lord saith to him, Evil servant! all that debt I did forgive thee, seeing thou didst call upon me,
field: 40018033
40
18
33
did it not behove also thee to have dealt kindly with thy fellow-servant, as I also dealt kindly with thee?
field: 40018034
40
18
34
`And having been wroth, his lord delivered him to the inquisitors, till he might pay all that was owing to him;
field: 40018035
40
18
35
so also my heavenly Father will do to you, if ye may not forgive each one his brother from your hearts their trespasses.'
field: 40019001
40
19
1
And it came to pass, when Jesus finished these words, he removed from Galilee, and did come to the borders of Judea, beyond the Jordan,
field: 40019002
40
19
2
and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them there.
field: 40019003
40
19
3
And the Pharisees came near to him, tempting him, and saying to him, `Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?'
field: 40019004
40
19
4
And he answering said to them, `Did ye not read, that He who made `them', from the beginning a male and a female made them,
field: 40019005
40
19
5
and said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and cleave to his wife, and they shall be -- the two -- for one flesh?
field: 40019006
40
19
6
so that they are no more two, but one flesh; what therefore God did join together, let no man put asunder.'
field: 40019007
40
19
7
They say to him, `Why then did Moses command to give a roll of divorce, and to put her away?'
field: 40019008
40
19
8
He saith to them -- `Moses for your stiffness of heart did suffer you to put away your wives, but from the beginning it hath not been so.
field: 40019009
40
19
9
`And I say to you, that, whoever may put away his wife, if not for whoredom, and may marry another, doth commit adultery; and he who did marry her that hath been put away, doth commit adultery.'
field: 40019010
40
19
10
His disciples say to him, `If the case of the man with the woman is so, it is not good to marry.'
field: 40019011
40
19
11
And he said to them, `All do not receive this word, but those to whom it hath been given;
field: 40019012
40
19
12
for there are eunuchs who from the mother's womb were so born; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who kept themselves eunuchs because of the reign of the heavens: he who is able to receive `it' -- let him receive.'
field: 40019013
40
19
13
Then were brought near to him children that he might put hands on them and pray, and the disciples rebuked them.
field: 40019014
40
19
14
But Jesus said, `Suffer the children, and forbid them not, to come unto me, for of such is the reign of the heavens;'
field: 40019015
40
19
15
and having laid on them `his' hands, he departed thence.
field: 40019016
40
19
16
And lo, one having come near, said to him, `Good teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have life age-during?'
field: 40019017
40
19
17
And he said to him, `Why me dost thou call good? no one `is' good except One -- God; but if thou dost will to enter into the life, keep the commands.'
field: 40019018
40
19
18
He saith to him, `What kind?' And Jesus said, `Thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness,
field: 40019019
40
19
19
honour thy father and mother, and, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.'
field: 40019020
40
19
20
The young man saith to him, `All these did I keep from my youth; what yet do I lack?'
field: 40019021
40
19
21
Jesus said to him, `If thou dost will to be perfect, go away, sell what thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come, follow me.'
field: 40019022
40
19
22
And the young man, having heard the word, went away sorrowful, for he had many possessions;
field: 40019023
40
19
23
and Jesus said to his disciples, `Verily I say to you, that hardly shall a rich man enter into the reign of the heavens;
field: 40019024
40
19
24
and again I say to you, it is easier for a camel through the eye of a needle to go, than for a rich man to enter into the reign of God.'
field: 40019025
40
19
25
And his disciples having heard, were amazed exceedingly, saying, `Who, then, is able to be saved?'
field: 40019026
40
19
26
And Jesus having earnestly beheld, said to them, `With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.'
field: 40019027
40
19
27
Then Peter answering said to him, `Lo, we did leave all, and follow thee, what then shall we have?'
field: 40019028
40
19
28
And Jesus said to them, `Verily I say to you, that ye who did follow me, in the regeneration, when the Son of Man may sit upon a throne of his glory, shall sit -- ye also -- upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel;
field: 40019029
40
19
29
and every one who left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for my name's sake, an hundredfold shall receive, and life age-during shall inherit;
field: 40019030
40
19
30
and many first shall be last, and last first.
field: 40020001
40
20
1
`For the reign of the heavens is like to a man, a householder, who went forth with the morning to hire workmen for his vineyard,
field: 40020002
40
20
2
and having agreed with the workmen for a denary a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
field: 40020003
40
20
3
`And having gone forth about the third hour, he saw others standing in the market-place idle,
field: 40020004
40
20
4
and to these he said, Go ye -- also ye -- to the vineyard, and whatever may be righteous I will give you;
field: 40020005
40
20
5
and they went away. `Again, having gone forth about the sixth and the ninth hour, he did in like manner.
field: 40020006
40
20
6
And about the eleventh hour, having gone forth, he found others standing idle, and saith to them, Why here have ye stood all the day idle?
field: 40020007
40
20
7
they say to him, Because no one did hire us; he saith to them, Go ye -- ye also -- to the vineyard, and whatever may be righteous ye shall receive.
field: 40020008
40
20
8
`And evening having come, the lord of the vineyard saith to his steward, Call the workmen, and pay them the reward, having begun from the last -- unto the first.
field: 40020009
40
20
9
And they of about the eleventh hour having come, did receive each a denary.
field: 40020010
40
20
10
`And the first having come, did suppose that they shall receive more, and they received, they also, each a denary,
field: 40020011
40
20
11
and having received `it', they were murmuring against the householder, saying,
field: 40020012
40
20
12
that These, the last, wrought one hour, and thou didst make them equal to us, who were bearing the burden of the day -- and the heat.
field: 40020013
40
20
13
`And he answering said to one of them, Comrade, I do no unrighteousness to thee; for a denary didst not thou agree with me?
field: 40020014
40
20
14
take that which is thine, and go; and I will to give to this, the last, also as to thee;
field: 40020015
40
20
15
is it not lawful to me to do what I will in mine own? is thine eye evil because I am good?
field: 40020016
40
20
16
So the last shall be first, and the first last, for many are called, and few chosen.'
field: 40020017
40
20
17
And Jesus going up to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples by themselves in the way, and said to them,
field: 40020018
40
20
18
`Lo, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man shall be delivered to the chief priests and scribes,
field: 40020019
40
20
19
and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the nations to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify, and the third day he will rise again.'
field: 40020020
40
20
20
Then came near to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee, with her sons, bowing and asking something from him,
field: 40020021
40
20
21
and he said to her, `What wilt thou?' She saith to him, `Say, that they may sit -- these my two sons -- one on thy right hand, and one on the left, in thy reign.'
field: 40020022
40
20
22
And Jesus answering said, `Ye have not known what ye ask for yourselves; are ye able to drink of the cup that I am about to drink? and with the baptism that I am baptized with, to be baptized?' They say to him, `We are able.'
field: 40020023
40
20
23
And he saith to them, `Of my cup indeed ye shall drink, and with the baptism that I am baptized with ye shall be baptized; but to sit on my right hand and on my left is not mine to give, but -- to those for whom it hath been prepared by my father.'
field: 40020024
40
20
24
And the ten having heard, were much displeased with the two brothers,
field: 40020025
40
20
25
and Jesus having called them near, said, `Ye have known that the rulers of the nations do exercise lordship over them, and those great do exercise authority over them,
field: 40020026
40
20
26
but not so shall it be among you, but whoever may will among you to become great, let him be your ministrant;
field: 40020027
40
20
27
and whoever may will among you to be first, let him be your servant;
field: 40020028
40
20
28
even as the Son of Man did not come to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.'
field: 40020029
40
20
29
And they going forth from Jericho, there followed him a great multitude,
field: 40020030
40
20
30
and lo, two blind men sitting by the way, having heard that Jesus doth pass by, cried, saying, `Deal kindly with us, sir -- Son of David.'
field: 40020031
40
20
31
And the multitude charged them that they might be silent, and they cried out the more, saying, `Deal kindly with us sir -- Son of David.'
field: 40020032
40
20
32
And having stood, Jesus called them, and said, `What will ye `that' I may do to you?'
field: 40020033
40
20
33
they say to him, `Sir, that our eyes may be opened;'
field: 40020034
40
20
34
and having been moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes, and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.
field: 40021001
40
21
1
And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, unto the mount of the Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
field: 40021002
40
21
2
saying to them, `Go on to the village over-against you, and immediately ye shall find an ass bound, and a colt with her -- having loosed, bring ye to me;
field: 40021003
40
21
3
and if any one may say anything to you, ye shall say, that the lord hath need of them, and immediately he will send them.'
field: 40021004
40
21
4
And all this came to pass, that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through the prophet, saying,
field: 40021005
40
21
5
`Tell ye the daughter of Zion, Lo, thy king doth come to thee, meek, and mounted on an ass, and a colt, a foal of a beast of burden.'
field: 40021006
40
21
6
And the disciples having gone and having done as Jesus commanded them,
field: 40021007
40
21
7
brought the ass and the colt, and did put on them their garments, and set `him' upon them;
field: 40021008
40
21
8
and the very great multitude spread their own garments in the way, and others were cutting branches from the trees, and were strewing in the way,
field: 40021009
40
21
9
and the multitudes who were going before, and who were following, were crying, saying, `Hosanna to the Son of David, blessed is he who is coming in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.'
field: 40021010
40
21
10
And he having entered into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, `Who is this?'
field: 40021011
40
21
11
And the multitudes said, `This is Jesus the prophet, who `is' from Nazareth of Galilee.'
field: 40021012
40
21
12
And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and did cast forth all those selling and buying in the temple, and the tables of the money-changers he overturned, and the seats of those selling the doves,
field: 40021013
40
21
13
and he saith to them, `It hath been written, My house a house of prayer shall be called, but ye did make it a den of robbers.'
field: 40021014
40
21
14
And there came to him blind and lame men in the temple, and he healed them,
field: 40021015
40
21
15
and the chief priests and the scribes having seen the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, `Hosanna to the Son of David,' were much displeased;
field: 40021016
40
21
16
and they said to him, `Hearest thou what these say?' And Jesus saith to them, `Yes, did ye never read, that, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings Thou didst prepare praise?'
field: 40021017
40
21
17
And having left them, he went forth out of the city to Bethany, and did lodge there,
field: 40021018
40
21
18
and in the morning turning back to the city, he hungered,
field: 40021019
40
21
19
and having seen a certain fig-tree on the way, he came to it, and found nothing in it except leaves only, and he saith to it, `No more from thee may fruit be -- to the age;' and forthwith the fig-tree withered.
field: 40021020
40
21
20
And the disciples having seen, did wonder, saying, `How did the fig-tree forthwith wither?'
field: 40021021
40
21
21
And Jesus answering said to them, `Verily I say to you, If ye may have faith, and may not doubt, not only this of the fig-tree shall ye do, but even if to this mount ye may say, Be lifted up and be cast into the sea, it shall come to pass;
field: 40021022
40
21
22
and all -- as much as ye may ask in the prayer, believing, ye shall receive.'
field: 40021023
40
21
23
And he having come to the temple, there came to him when teaching the chief priests and the elders of the people, saying, `By what authority dost thou do these things? and who gave thee this authority?'
field: 40021024
40
21
24
And Jesus answering said to them, `I will ask you -- I also -- one word, which if ye may tell me, I also will tell you by what authority I do these things;
field: 40021025
40
21
25
the baptism of John, whence was it? -- from heaven, or from men?' And they were reasoning with themselves, saying, `If we should say, From heaven; he will say to us, Wherefore, then, did ye not believe him?
field: 40021026
40
21
26
and if we should say, From men, we fear the multitude, for all hold John as a prophet.'
field: 40021027
40
21
27
And answering Jesus they said, `We have not known.' He said to them -- he also -- `Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
field: 40021028
40
21
28
`And what think ye? A man had two children, and having come to the first, he said, Child, go, to-day be working in my vineyard.'
field: 40021029
40
21
29
And he answering said, `I will not,' but at last, having repented, he went.
field: 40021030
40
21
30
`And having come to the second, he said in the same manner, and he answering said, I `go', sir, and went not;
field: 40021031
40
21
31
which of the two did the will of the father?' They say to him, `The first.' Jesus saith to them, `Verily I say to you, that the tax-gatherers and the harlots do go before you into the reign of God,
field: 40021032
40
21
32
for John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye did not believe him, and the tax-gatherers and the harlots did believe him, and ye, having seen, repented not at last -- to believe him.
field: 40021033
40
21
33
`Hear ye another simile: There was a certain man, a householder, who planted a vineyard, and did put a hedge round it, and digged in it a wine-press, and built a tower, and gave it out to husbandmen, and went abroad.
field: 40021034
40
21
34
`And when the season of the fruits came nigh, he sent his servants unto the husbandmen, to receive the fruits of it,
field: 40021035
40
21
35
and the husbandmen having taken his servants, one they scourged, and one they killed, and one they stoned.
field: 40021036
40
21
36
`Again he sent other servants more than the first, and they did to them in the same manner.
field: 40021037
40
21
37
`And at last he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son;
field: 40021038
40
21
38
and the husbandmen having seen the son, said among themselves, This is the heir, come, we may kill him, and may possess his inheritance;
field: 40021039
40
21
39
and having taken him, they cast `him' out of the vineyard, and killed him;
field: 40021040
40
21
40
whenever therefore the lord of the vineyard may come, what will he do to these husbandmen?'
field: 40021041
40
21
41
They say to him, `Evil men -- he will evilly destroy them, and the vineyard will give out to other husbandmen, who will give back to him the fruits in their seasons.'
field: 40021042
40
21
42
Jesus saith to them, `Did ye never read in the Writings, A stone that the builders disallowed, it became head of a corner; from the Lord hath this come to pass, and it is wonderful in our eyes.
field: 40021043
40
21
43
`Because of this I say to you, that the reign of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth its fruit;
field: 40021044
40
21
44
and he who is falling on this stone shall be broken, and on whomsoever it may fall it will crush him to pieces.'
field: 40021045
40
21
45
And the chief priests and the Pharisees having heard his similes, knew that of them he speaketh,
field: 40021046
40
21
46
and seeking to lay hold on him, they feared the multitudes, seeing they were holding him as a prophet.
field: 40022001
40
22
1
And Jesus answering, again spake to them in similes, saying,
field: 40022002
40
22
2
`The reign of the heavens was likened to a man, a king, who made marriage-feasts for his son,
field: 40022003
40
22
3
and he sent forth his servants to call those having been called to the marriage-feasts, and they were not willing to come.
field: 40022004
40
22
4
`Again he sent forth other servants, saying, Say to those who have been called: Lo, my dinner I prepared, my oxen and the fatlings have been killed, and all things `are' ready, come ye to the marriage-feasts;
field: 40022005
40
22
5
and they, having disregarded `it', went away, the one to his own field, and the other to his merchandise;
field: 40022006
40
22
6
and the rest, having laid hold on his servants, did insult and slay `them'.
field: 40022007
40
22
7
`And the king having heard, was wroth, and having sent forth his soldiers, he destroyed those murderers, and their city he set on fire;
field: 40022008
40
22
8
then saith he to his servants, The marriage-feast indeed is ready, and those called were not worthy,
field: 40022009
40
22
9
be going, then, on to the cross-ways, and as many as ye may find, call ye to the marriage-feasts.
field: 40022010
40
22
10
`And those servants, having gone forth to the ways, did gather all, as many as they found, both bad and good, and the marriage-feast apartment was filled with those reclining.
field: 40022011
40
22
11
`And the king having come in to view those reclining, saw there a man not clothed with clothing of the marriage-feast,
field: 40022012
40
22
12
and he saith to him, Comrade, how didst thou come in hither, not having clothing of the marriage-feast? and he was speechless.
field: 40022013
40
22
13
`Then said the king to the ministrants, Having bound his feet and hands, take him up and cast forth to the outer darkness, there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth;
field: 40022014
40
22
14
for many are called, and few chosen.'
field: 40022015
40
22
15
Then the Pharisees having gone, took counsel how they might ensnare him in words,
field: 40022016
40
22
16
and they send to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, `Teacher, we have known that thou art true, and the way of God in truth thou dost teach, and thou art not caring for any one, for thou dost not look to the face of men;
field: 40022017
40
22
17
tell us, therefore, what dost thou think? is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar or not?'
field: 40022018
40
22
18
And Jesus having known their wickedness, said, `Why me do ye tempt, hypocrites?
field: 40022019
40
22
19
show me the tribute-coin?' and they brought to him a denary;
field: 40022020
40
22
20
and he saith to them, `Whose `is' this image and the inscription?'
field: 40022021
40
22
21
they say to him, `Caesar's;' then saith he to them, `Render therefore the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God;'
field: 40022022
40
22
22
and having heard they wondered, and having left him they went away.
field: 40022023
40
22
23
In that day there came near to him Sadducees, who are saying there is not a rising again, and they questioned him, saying,
field: 40022024
40
22
24
`Teacher, Moses said, If any one may die not having children, his brother shall marry his wife, and shall raise up seed to his brother.
field: 40022025
40
22
25
`And there were with us seven brothers, and the first having married did die, and not having seed, he left his wife to his brother;
field: 40022026
40
22
26
in like manner also the second, and the third, unto the seventh,
field: 40022027
40
22
27
and last of all died also the woman;
field: 40022028
40
22
28
therefore in the rising again, of which of the seven shall she be wife -- for all had her?'
field: 40022029
40
22
29
And Jesus answering said to them, `Ye go astray, not knowing the Writings, nor the power of God;
field: 40022030
40
22
30
for in the rising again they do not marry, nor are they given in marriage, but are as messengers of God in heaven.
field: 40022031
40
22
31
`And concerning the rising again of the dead, did ye not read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,
field: 40022032
40
22
32
I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not a God of dead men, but of living.'
field: 40022033
40
22
33
And having heard, the multitudes were astonished at his teaching;
field: 40022034
40
22
34
and the Pharisees, having heard that he did silence the Sadducees, were gathered together unto him;
field: 40022035
40
22
35
and one of them, a lawyer, did question, tempting him, and saying,
field: 40022036
40
22
36
`Teacher, which `is' the great command in the Law?'
field: 40022037
40
22
37
And Jesus said to him, `Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thine understanding --
field: 40022038
40
22
38
this is a first and great command;
field: 40022039
40
22
39
and the second `is' like to it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself;
field: 40022040
40
22
40
on these -- the two commands -- all the law and the prophets do hang.'
field: 40022041
40
22
41
And the Pharisees having been gathered together, Jesus did question them,
field: 40022042
40
22
42
saying, `What do ye think concerning the Christ? of whom is he son?' They say to him, `Of David.'
field: 40022043
40
22
43
He saith to them, `How then doth David in the Spirit call him lord, saying,
field: 40022044
40
22
44
The Lord said to my lord, Sit at my right hand, till I may make thine enemies thy footstool?
field: 40022045
40
22
45
If then David doth call him lord, how is he his son?'
field: 40022046
40
22
46
And no one was able to answer him a word, nor durst any from that day question him any more.
field: 40023001
40
23
1
Then Jesus spake to the multitudes, and to his disciples,
field: 40023002
40
23
2
saying, `On the seat of Moses sat down the scribes and the Pharisees;
field: 40023003
40
23
3
all, then, as much as they may say to you to observe, observe and do, but according to their works do not, for they say, and do not;
field: 40023004
40
23
4
for they bind together burdens heavy and grievous to be borne, and lay upon the shoulders of men, but with their finger they will not move them.
field: 40023005
40
23
5
`And all their works they do to be seen by men, and they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the fringes of their garments,
field: 40023006
40
23
6
they love also the chief couches in the supper, and the chief seats in the synagogues,
field: 40023007
40
23
7
and the salutations in the market-places, and to be called by men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
field: 40023008
40
23
8
`And ye -- ye may not be called Rabbi, for one is your director -- the Christ, and all ye are brethren;
field: 40023009
40
23
9
and ye may not call `any' your father on the earth, for one is your Father, who is in the heavens,
field: 40023010
40
23
10
nor may ye be called directors, for one is your director -- the Christ.
field: 40023011
40
23
11
And the greater of you shall be your ministrant,
field: 40023012
40
23
12
and whoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled, and whoever shall humble himself shall be exalted.
field: 40023013
40
23
13
`Wo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye shut up the reign of the heavens before men, for ye do not go in, nor those going in do ye suffer to enter.
field: 40023014
40
23
14
`Wo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye eat up the houses of the widows, and for a pretence make long prayers, because of this ye shall receive more abundant judgment.
field: 40023015
40
23
15
`Wo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye go round the sea and the dry land to make one proselyte, and whenever it may happen -- ye make him a son of gehenna twofold more than yourselves.

40
23
16
`Wo to you, blind guides, who are saying, Whoever may swear by the sanctuary, it is nothing, but whoever may swear by the gold of the sanctuary -- is debtor!
field: 40023017

17
Fools and blind! for which `is' greater, the gold, or the sanctuary that is sanctifying the gold?

40

18
`And, whoever may swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever may swear by the gift that is upon it -- is debtor!

19
Fools and blind! for which `is' greater, the gift, or the altar that is sanctifying the gift?

40
23
20
`He therefore who did swear by the altar, doth swear by it, and by all things on it;
field: 40023021
40
23
21
and he who did swear by the sanctuary, doth swear by it, and by Him who is dwelling in it;
field: 40023022
40
23
22
and he who did swear by the heaven, doth swear by the throne of God, and by Him who is sitting upon it.
field: 40023023
40
23
23
`Wo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye give tithe of the mint, and the dill, and the cumin, and did neglect the weightier things of the Law -- the judgment, and the kindness, and the faith; these it behoved `you' to do, and those not to neglect.
field: 40023024
40
23
24
`Blind guides! who are straining out the gnat, and the camel are swallowing.

40
23
25
`Wo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye make clean the outside of the cup and the plate, and within they are full of rapine and incontinence.

26
`Blind Pharisee! cleanse first the inside of the cup and the plate, that the outside of them also may become clean.

27
`Wo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye are like to whitewashed sepulchres, which outwardly indeed do appear beautiful, and within are full of bones of dead men, and of all uncleanness;
field: 40023028
40
23
28
so also ye outwardly indeed do appear to men righteous, and within ye are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
field: 40023029
40
23
29
`Wo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and adorn the tombs of the righteous,

and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
field: 40023031

23
31
So that ye testify to yourselves, that ye are sons of them who did murder the prophets;

`Serpents! brood of vipers! how may ye escape from the judgment of the gehenna?
field: 40023034
40
23
34
`Because of this, lo, I send to you prophets, and wise men, and scribes, and of them ye will kill and crucify, and of them ye will scourge in your synagogues, and will pursue from city to city;
field: 40023035
40
23
35
that on you may come all the righteous blood being poured out on the earth from the blood of Abel the righteous, unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the sanctuary and the altar:
field: 40023036
40
23
36
verily I say to you, all these things shall come upon this generation.
field: 40023037

37
`Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that art killing the prophets, and stoning those sent unto thee, how often did I will to gather thy children together, as a hen doth gather her own chickens under the wings, and ye did not will.

23
38
Lo, left desolate to you is your house;

And having gone forth, Jesus departed from the temple, and his disciples came near to show him the buildings of the temple,
field: 40024002
40
24
2
and Jesus said to them, `Do ye not see all these? verily I say to you, There may not be left here a stone upon a stone, that shall not be thrown down.'
field: 40024003
40
24
3
And when he is sitting on the mount of the Olives, the disciples came near to him by himself, saying, `Tell us, when shall these be? and what `is' the sign of thy presence, and of the full end of the age?'
field: 40024004
40
24
4
And Jesus answering said to them, `Take heed that no one may lead you astray,
field: 40024005
40
24
5
for many shall come in my name, saying, I am the Christ, and they shall lead many astray,
field: 40024006
40
24
6
and ye shall begin to hear of wars, and reports of wars; see, be not troubled, for it behoveth all `these' to come to pass, but the end is not yet.
field: 40024007
40
24
7
`For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places;
field: 40024008
40
24
8
and all these `are' the beginning of sorrows;
field: 40024009
40
24
9
then they shall deliver you up to tribulation, and shall kill you, and ye shall be hated by all the nations because of my name;
field: 40024010
40
24
10
and then shall many be stumbled, and they shall deliver up one another, and shall hate one another.
field: 40024011
40
24
11
`And many false prophets shall arise, and shall lead many astray;
field: 40024012
40
24
12
and because of the abounding of the lawlessness, the love of the many shall become cold;
field: 40024013
40
24
13
but he who did endure to the end, he shall be saved;
field: 40024014
40
24
14
and this good news of the reign shall be proclaimed in all the world, for a testimony to all the nations; and then shall the end arrive.

15
`Whenever, therefore, ye may see the abomination of the desolation, that was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (whoever is reading let him observe)
field: 40024016
40
24
16
then those in Judea -- let them flee to the mounts;
field: 40024017
40
24
17
he on the house-top -- let him not come down to take up any thing out of his house;

24
20
and pray ye that your flight may not be in winter, nor on a sabbath;
field: 40024021
40

21
for there shall be then great tribulation, such as was not from the beginning of the world till now, no, nor may be.
field: 40024022
40
24
22
And if those days were not shortened, no flesh would have been saved; but because of the chosen, shall those days be shortened.
field: 40024023
40
24
23
`Then if any one may say to you, Lo, here `is' the Christ! or here! ye may not believe;
field: 40024024
40
24
24
for there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and they shall give great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, also the chosen.
field: 40024025
40
24
25
Lo, I did tell you beforehand.
field: 40024026
40

`If therefore they may say to you, Lo, in the wilderness he is, ye may not go forth; lo, in the inner chambers, ye may not believe;

for wherever the carcase may be, there shall the eagles be gathered together.
field: 40024029
40
24
29
`And immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from the heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken;
field: 40024030
40
24
30
and then shall appear the sign of the Son of Man in the heaven; and then shall all the tribes of the earth smite the breast, and they shall see the Son of Man coming upon the clouds of the heaven, with power and much glory;
field: 40024031
40
24
31
and he shall send his messengers with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his chosen from the four winds, from the ends of the heavens unto the ends thereof.

32
`And from the fig-tree learn ye the simile: When already its branch may have become tender, and the leaves it may put forth, ye know that summer `is' nigh,

so also ye, when ye may see all these, ye know that it is nigh -- at the doors.

Verily I say to you, this generation may not pass away till all these may come to pass.

24
37
and as the days of Noah -- so shall be also the presence of the Son of Man;
field: 40024038
40
24
38
for as they were, in the days before the flood, eating, and drinking, marrying, and giving in marriage, till the day Noah entered into the ark,
field: 40024039
40
24
39
and they did not know till the flood came and took all away; so shall be also the presence of the Son of Man.

two women shall be grinding in the mill, one is received, and one is left.

`Watch ye therefore, because ye have not known in what hour your Lord doth come;

50
the lord of that servant will arrive in a day when he doth not expect, and in an hour of which he doth not know,

`Then shall the reign of the heavens be likened to ten virgins, who, having taken their lamps, went forth to meet the bridegroom;

40
25
2
and five of them were prudent, and five foolish;
field: 40025003
40
25
3
they who were foolish having taken their lamps, did not take with themselves oil;
field: 40025004

40
25
5
`And the bridegroom tarrying, they all nodded and were sleeping,

7
`Then rose all those virgins, and trimmed their lamps,

`And while they are going away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those ready went in with him to the marriage-feasts, and the door was shut;

And these shall go away to punishment age-during, but the righteous to life age-during.'
field: 40026001
40
26
1
And it came to pass, when Jesus finished all these words, he said to his disciples,
field: 40026002
40
26
2
`Ye have known that after two days the passover cometh, and the Son of Man is delivered up to be crucified.'
field: 40026003
40
26
3
Then were gathered together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, to the court of the chief priest who was called Caiaphas;
field: 40026004
40
26
4
and they consulted together that they might take Jesus by guile, and kill `him',
field: 40026005
40
26
5
and they said, `Not in the feast, that there may not be a tumult among the people.'
field: 40026006
40
26
6
And Jesus having been in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
field: 40026007
40
26
7
there came to him a woman having an alabaster box of ointment, very precious, and she poured on his head as he is reclining (at meat).
field: 40026008
40
26
8
And having seen `it', his disciples were much displeased, saying, `To what purpose `is' this waste?
field: 40026009
40
26
9
for this ointment could have been sold for much, and given to the poor.'
field: 40026010
40
26
10
And Jesus having known, said to them, `Why do ye give trouble to the woman? for a good work she wrought for me;
field: 40026011
40
26
11
for the poor always ye have with you, and me ye have not always;
field: 40026012
40
26
12
for she having put this ointment on my body -- for my burial she did `it'.
field: 40026013
40
26
13
Verily I say to you, Wherever this good news may be proclaimed in the whole world, what this `one' did shall also be spoken of -- for a memorial of her.'
field: 40026014
40
26
14
Then one of the twelve, who is called Judas Iscariot, having gone unto the chief priests, said,
field: 40026015
40
26
15
`What are ye willing to give me, and I will deliver him up to you?' and they weighed out to him thirty silverlings,
field: 40026016
40
26
16
and from that time he was seeking a convenient season to deliver him up.
field: 40026017
40
26
17
And on the first `day' of the unleavened food came the disciples near to Jesus, saying to him, `Where wilt thou `that' we may prepare for thee to eat the passover?'
field: 40026018
40
26
18
and he said, `Go away to the city, unto such a one, and say to him, The Teacher saith, My time is nigh; near thee I keep the passover, with my disciples;'
field: 40026019
40
26
19
and the disciples did as Jesus appointed them, and prepared the passover.
field: 40026020
40
26
20
And evening having come, he was reclining (at meat) with the twelve,
field: 40026021
40
26
21
and while they are eating, he said, `Verily I say to you, that one of you shall deliver me up.'
field: 40026022
40
26
22
And being grieved exceedingly, they began to say to him, each of them, `Is it I, Sir?'
field: 40026023
40
26
23
And he answering said, `He who did dip with me the hand in the dish, he will deliver me up;
field: 40026024
40
26
24
the Son of Man doth indeed go, as it hath been written concerning him, but wo to that man through whom the Son of Man is delivered up! good it were for him if that man had not been born.'
field: 40026025
40
26
25
And Judas -- he who delivered him up -- answering said, `Is it I, Rabbi?' He saith to him, `Thou hast said.'
field: 40026026
40
26
26
And while they were eating, Jesus having taken the bread, and having blessed, did brake, and was giving to the disciples, and said, `Take, eat, this is my body;'
field: 40026027
40
26
27
and having taken the cup, and having given thanks, he gave to them, saying, `Drink ye of it -- all;
field: 40026028
40
26
28
for this is my blood of the new covenant, that for many is being poured out -- to remission of sins;
field: 40026029
40
26
29
and I say to you, that I may not drink henceforth on this produce of the vine, till that day when I may drink it with you new in the reign of my Father.'
field: 40026030
40
26
30
And having sung a hymn, they went forth to the mount of the Olives;
field: 40026031
40
26
31
then saith Jesus to them, `All ye shall be stumbled at me this night; for it hath been written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad;
field: 40026032
40
26
32
but, after my having risen, I will go before you to Galilee.'
field: 40026033
40
26
33
And Peter answering said to him, `Even if all shall be stumbled at thee, I will never be stumbled.'
field: 40026034
40
26
34
Jesus said to him, `Verily I say to thee, that, this night, before cock-crowing, thrice thou wilt deny me.'
field: 40026035
40
26
35
Peter saith to him, `Even if it may be necessary for me to die with thee, I will not deny thee;' in like manner also said all the disciples.
field: 40026036
40
26
36
Then come with them doth Jesus to a place called Gethsemane, and he saith to the disciples, `Sit ye here, till having gone away, I shall pray yonder.'
field: 40026037
40
26
37
And having taken Peter, and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful, and to be very heavy;
field: 40026038
40
26
38
then saith he to them, `Exceedingly sorrowful is my soul -- unto death; abide ye here, and watch with me.'
field: 40026039
40
26
39
And having gone forward a little, he fell on his face, praying, and saying, `My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as Thou.'
field: 40026040
40
26
40
And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them sleeping, and he saith to Peter, `So! ye were not able one hour to watch with me!
field: 40026041
40
26
41
watch, and pray, that ye may not enter into temptation: the spirit indeed is forward, but the flesh weak.'
field: 40026042
40
26
42
Again, a second time, having gone away, he prayed, saying, `My Father, if this cup cannot pass away from me except I drink it, Thy will be done;'
field: 40026043
40
26
43
and having come, he findeth them again sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.
field: 40026044
40
26
44
And having left them, having gone away again, he prayed a third time, saying the same word;
field: 40026045
40
26
45
then cometh he unto his disciples, and saith to them, `Sleep on henceforth, and rest! lo, the hour hath come nigh, and the Son of Man is delivered up to the hands of sinners.
field: 40026046
40
26
46
Rise, let us go; lo, he hath come nigh who is delivering me up.'
field: 40026047
40
26
47
And while he is yet speaking, lo, Judas, one of the twelve did come, and with him a great multitude, with swords and sticks, from the chief priests and elders of the people.
field: 40026048
40
26
48
And he who did deliver him up did give them a sign, saying, `Whomsoever I will kiss, it is he: lay hold on him;'
field: 40026049
40
26
49
and immediately, having come to Jesus, he said, `Hail, Rabbi,' and kissed him;
field: 40026050
40
26
50
and Jesus said to him, `Comrade, for what art thou present?' Then having come near, they laid hands on Jesus, and took hold on him.
field: 40026051
40
26
51
And lo, one of those with Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, drew his sword, and having struck the servant of the chief priest, he took off his ear.
field: 40026052
40
26
52
Then saith Jesus to him, `Turn back thy sword to its place; for all who did take the sword, by the sword shall perish;
field: 40026053
40
26
53
dost thou think that I am not able now to call upon my Father, and He will place beside me more than twelve legions of messengers?
field: 40026054
40
26
54
how then may the Writings be fulfilled, that thus it behoveth to happen?'
field: 40026055
40
26
55
In that hour said Jesus to the multitudes, `As against a robber ye did come forth, with swords and sticks, to take me! daily with you I was sitting teaching in the temple, and ye did not lay hold on me;
field: 40026056
40
26
56
but all this hath come to pass, that the Writings of the prophets may be fulfilled;' then all the disciples, having left him, fled.
field: 40026057
40
26
57
And those laying hold on Jesus led `him' away unto Caiaphas the chief priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together,
field: 40026058
40
26
58
and Peter was following him afar off, unto the court of the chief priest, and having gone in within, he was sitting with the officers, to see the end.
field: 40026059
40
26
59
And the chief priests, and the elders, and all the council, were seeking false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death,
field: 40026060
40
26
60
and they did not find; and many false witnesses having come near, they did not find; and at last two false witnesses having come near,
field: 40026061
40
26
61
said, `This one said, I am able to throw down the sanctuary of God, and after three days to build it.'
field: 40026062
40
26
62
And the chief priest having stood up, said to him, `Nothing thou dost answer! what do these witness against thee?
field: 40026063
40
26
63
and Jesus was silent. And the chief priest answering said to him, `I adjure thee, by the living God, that thou mayest say to us, if thou art the Christ -- the Son of God.'
field: 40026064
40
26
64
Jesus saith to him, `Thou hast said; nevertheless I say to you, hereafter ye shall see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power, and coming upon the clouds, of the heaven.'
field: 40026065
40
26
65
Then the chief priest rent his garments, saying, -- `He hath spoken evil; what need have we yet of witnesses? lo, now ye heard his evil speaking;
field: 40026066
40
26
66
what think ye?' and they answering said, `He is worthy of death.'
field: 40026067
40
26
67
Then did they spit in his face and buffet him, and others did slap,
field: 40026068
40
26
68
saying, `Declare to us, O Christ, who he is that struck thee?'
field: 40026069
40
26
69
And Peter without was sitting in the court, and there came near to him a certain maid, saying, `And thou wast with Jesus of Galilee!'
field: 40026070
40
26
70
And he denied before all, saying, `I have not known what thou sayest.'
field: 40026071
40
26
71
And he having gone forth to the porch, another female saw him, and saith to those there, `And this one was with Jesus of Nazareth;'
field: 40026072
40
26
72
and again did he deny with an oath -- `I have not known the man.'
field: 40026073
40
26
73
And after a little those standing near having come, said to Peter, `Truly thou also art of them, for even thy speech doth make thee manifest.'
field: 40026074
40
26
74
Then began he to anathematise, and to swear -- `I have not known the man;' and immediately did a cock crow,
field: 40026075
40
26
75
and Peter remembered the saying of Jesus, he having said to him -- `Before cock-crowing, thrice thou wilt deny me;' and having gone without, he did weep bitterly.
field: 40027001
40
27
1
And morning having come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus, so as to put him to death;
field: 40027002
40
27
2
and having bound him, they did lead away, and delivered him up to Pontius Pilate, the governor.
field: 40027003
40
27
3
Then Judas -- he who delivered him up -- having seen that he was condemned, having repented, brought back the thirty silverlings to the chief priests, and to the elders, saying,
field: 40027004
40
27
4
`I did sin, having delivered up innocent blood;' and they said, `What -- to us? thou shalt see!'
field: 40027005
40
27
5
and having cast down the silverlings in the sanctuary, he departed, and having gone away, he did strangle himself.
field: 40027006
40
27
6
And the chief priests having taken the silverlings, said, `It is not lawful to put them to the treasury, seeing it is the price of blood;'
field: 40027007
40
27
7
and having taken counsel, they bought with them the field of the potter, for the burial of strangers;
field: 40027008
40
27
8
therefore was that field called, `Field of blood,' unto this day.
field: 40027009
40
27
9
Then was fulfilled that spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying, `And I took the thirty silverlings, the price of him who hath been priced, whom they of the sons of Israel did price,
field: 40027010
40
27
10
and gave them for the field of the potter, as the Lord did appoint to me.'
field: 40027011
40
27
11
And Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor did question him, saying, `Art thou the king of the Jews!' And Jesus said to him, `Thou sayest.'
field: 40027012
40
27
12
And in his being accused by the chief priests and the elders, he did not answer any thing,
field: 40027013
40
27
13
then saith Pilate to him, `Dost thou not hear how many things they witness against thee?'
field: 40027014
40
27
14
And he did not answer him, not even to one word, so that the governor did wonder greatly.
field: 40027015
40
27
15
And at the feast the governor had been accustomed to release one to the multitude, a prisoner, whom they willed,
field: 40027016
40
27
16
and they had then a noted prisoner, called Barabbas,
field: 40027017
40
27
17
they therefore having been gathered together, Pilate said to them, `Whom will ye I shall release to you? Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?'
field: 40027018
40
27
18
for he had known that because of envy they had delivered him up.
field: 40027019
40
27
19
And as he is sitting on the tribunal, his wife sent unto him, saying, `Nothing -- to thee and to that righteous one, for many things did I suffer to-day in a dream because of him.'
field: 40027020
40
27
20
And the chief priests and the elders did persuade the multitudes that they might ask for themselves Barabbas, and might destroy Jesus;
field: 40027021
40
27
21
and the governor answering said to them, `Which of the two will ye `that' I shall release to you?' And they said, `Barabbas.'
field: 40027022
40
27
22
Pilate saith to them, `What then shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?' They all say to him, `Let be crucified!'
field: 40027023
40
27
23
And the governor said, `Why, what evil did he?' and they were crying out the more, saying, `Let be crucified.'
field: 40027024
40
27
24
And Pilate having seen that it profiteth nothing, but rather a tumult is made, having taken water, he did wash the hands before the multitude, saying, `I am innocent from the blood of this righteous one; ye -- ye shall see;'
field: 40027025
40
27
25
and all the people answering said, `His blood `is' upon us, and upon our children!'
field: 40027026
40
27
26
Then did he release to them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, he delivered `him' up that he may be crucified;
field: 40027027
40
27
27
then the soldiers of the governor having taken Jesus to the Praetorium, did gather to him all the band;
field: 40027028
40
27
28
and having unclothed him, they put around him a crimson cloak,
field: 40027029
40
27
29
and having plaited him a crown out of thorns they put `it' on his head, and a reed in his right hand, and having kneeled before him, they were mocking him, saying, `Hail, the king of the Jews.'
field: 40027030
40
27
30
And having spit on him, they took the reed, and were smiting on his head;
field: 40027031
40
27
31
and when they had mocked him, they took off from him the cloak, and put on him his own garments, and led him away to crucify `him'.
field: 40027032
40
27
32
And coming forth, they found a man, a Cyrenian, by name Simon: him they impressed that he might bear his cross;
field: 40027033
40
27
33
and having come to a place called Golgotha, that is called Place of a Skull,
field: 40027034
40
27
34
they gave him to drink vinegar mixed with gall, and having tasted, he would not drink.
field: 40027035
40
27
35
And having crucified him, they divided his garments, casting a lot, that it might be fulfilled that was spoken by the prophet, `They divided my garments to themselves, and over my vesture they cast a lot;'
field: 40027036
40
27
36
and sitting down, they were watching him there,
field: 40027037
40
27
37
and they put up over his head, his accusation written, `This is Jesus, the king of the Jews.'
field: 40027038
40
27
38
Then crucified with him are two robbers, one on the right hand, and one on the left,
field: 40027039
40
27
39
and those passing by were speaking evil of him, wagging their heads,
field: 40027040
40
27
40
and saying, `Thou that art throwing down the sanctuary, and in three days building `it', save thyself; if Son thou art of God, come down from the cross.'
field: 40027041
40
27
41
And in like manner also the chief priests mocking, with the scribes and elders, said,
field: 40027042
40
27
42
`Others he saved; himself he is not able to save! If he be King of Israel, let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe him;
field: 40027043
40
27
43
he hath trusted on God, let Him now deliver him, if He wish him, because he said -- Son of God I am;'
field: 40027044
40
27
44
with the same also the robbers, who were crucified with him, were reproaching him.
field: 40027045
40
27
45
And from the sixth hour darkness came over all the land unto the ninth hour,
field: 40027046
40
27
46
and about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a great voice, saying, `Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?' that is, `My God, my God, why didst Thou forsake me?'
field: 40027047
40
27
47
And certain of those standing there having heard, said -- `Elijah he doth call;'
field: 40027048
40
27
48
and immediately, one of them having run, and having taken a spunge, having filled `it' with vinegar, and having put `it' on a reed, was giving him to drink,
field: 40027049
40
27
49
but the rest said, `Let alone, let us see if Elijah doth come -- about to save him.'
field: 40027050
40
27
50
And Jesus having again cried with a great voice, yielded the spirit;
field: 40027051
40
27
51
and lo, the vail of the sanctuary was rent in two from top unto bottom, and the earth did quake, and the rocks were rent,
field: 40027052
40
27
52
and the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who have fallen asleep, arose,
field: 40027053
40
27
53
and having come forth out of the tombs after his rising, they went into the holy city, and appeared to many.
field: 40027054
40
27
54
And the centurion, and those with him watching Jesus, having seen the earthquake, and the things that were done, were exceedingly afraid, saying, `Truly this was God's Son.'
field: 40027055
40
27
55
And there were there many women beholding from afar, who did follow Jesus from Galilee, ministering to him,
field: 40027056
40
27
56
among whom was Mary the Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and of Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
field: 40027057
40
27
57
And evening having come, there came a rich man, from Arimathea, named Joseph, who also himself was discipled to Jesus,
field: 40027058
40
27
58
he having gone near to Pilate, asked for himself the body of Jesus; then Pilate commanded the body to be given back.
field: 40027059
40
27
59
And having taken the body, Joseph wrapped it in clean linen,
field: 40027060
40
27
60
and laid it in his new tomb, that he hewed in the rock, and having rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, he went away;
field: 40027061
40
27
61
and there were there Mary the Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over-against the sepulchre.
field: 40027062
40
27
62
And on the morrow that is after the preparation, were gathered together the chief priests, and the Pharisees, unto Pilate,
field: 40027063
40
27
63
saying, `Sir, we have remembered that that deceiver said while yet living, After three days I do rise;
field: 40027064
40
27
64
command, then, the sepulchre to be made secure till the third day, lest his disciples, having come by night, may steal him away, and may say to the people, He rose from the dead, and the last deceit shall be worse than the first.'
field: 40027065
40
27
65
And Pilate said to them, `Ye have a watch, go away, make secure -- as ye have known;'
field: 40027066
40
27
66
and they, having gone, did make the sepulchre secure, having sealed the stone, together with the watch.
field: 40028001
40
28
1
And on the eve of the sabbaths, at the dawn, toward the first of the sabbaths, came Mary the Magdalene, and the other Mary, to see the sepulchre,
field: 40028002
40

2
and lo, there came a great earthquake, for a messenger of the Lord, having come down out of heaven, having come, did roll away the stone from the door, and was sitting upon it,
field: 40028003
40
28
3
and his countenance was as lightning, and his clothing white as snow,
field: 40028004
40
28
4
and from the fear of him did the keepers shake, and they became as dead men.
field: 40028005
40
28
5
And the messenger answering said to the women, `Fear not ye, for I have known that Jesus, who hath been crucified, ye seek;
field: 40028006
40
28
6
he is not here, for he rose, as he said; come, see the place where the Lord was lying;
field: 40028007
40
28
7
and having gone quickly, say ye to his disciples, that he rose from the dead; and lo, he doth go before you to Galilee, there ye shall see him; lo, I have told you.'
field: 40028008
40
28
8
And having gone forth quickly from the tomb, with fear and great joy, they ran to tell to his disciples;
field: 40028009
40
28
9
and as they were going to tell to his disciples, then lo, Jesus met them, saying, `Hail!' and they having come near, laid hold of his feet, and did bow to him.
field: 40028010
40
28
10
Then saith Jesus to them, `Fear ye not, go away, tell to my brethren that they may go away to Galilee, and there they shall see me.'
field: 40028011
40
28
11
And while they are going on, lo, certain of the watch having come to the city, told to the chief priests all the things that happened,
field: 40028012
40
28
12
and having been gathered together with the elders, counsel also having taken, they gave much money to the soldiers,
field: 40028013
40
28
13
saying, `Say ye, that his disciples having come by night, stole him -- we being asleep;
field: 40028014
40
28
14
and if this be heard by the governor, we will persuade him, and you keep free from anxiety.'
field: 40028015
40
28
15
And they, having received the money, did as they were taught, and this account was spread abroad among Jews till this day.
field: 40028016
40
28
16
And the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mount where Jesus appointed them,
field: 40028017
40
28
17
and having seen him, they bowed to him, but some did waver.
field: 40028018
40
28
18
And having come near, Jesus spake to them, saying, `Given to me was all authority in heaven and on earth;
field: 40028019
40
28
19
having gone, then, disciple all the nations, (baptizing them -- to the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,
field: 40028020
40
28
20
teaching them to observe all, whatever I did command you,) and lo, I am with you all the days -- till the full end of the age.'
field: 41001001
41
1
1
A beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, Son of God.
field: 41001002
41
1
2
As it hath been written in the prophets, `Lo, I send My messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee,' --
field: 41001003
41
1
3
`A voice of one calling in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight make ye his paths,' --
field: 41001004
41
1
4
John came baptizing in the wilderness, and proclaiming a baptism of reformation -- to remission of sins,
field: 41001005
41
1
5
and there were going forth to him all the region of Judea, and they of Jerusalem, and they were all baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
field: 41001006
41
1
6
And John was clothed with camel's hair, and a girdle of skin around his loins, and eating locusts and honey of the field,
field: 41001007
41
1
7
and he proclaimed, saying, `He doth come -- who is mightier than I -- after me, of whom I am not worthy -- having stooped down -- to loose the latchet of his sandals;
field: 41001008
41
1
8
I indeed did baptize you with water, but he shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit.'
field: 41001009
41
1
9
And it came to pass in those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John at the Jordan;
field: 41001010
41
1
10
and immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens dividing, and the Spirit as a dove coming down upon him;
field: 41001011
41
1
11
and a voice came out of the heavens, `Thou art My Son -- the Beloved, in whom I did delight.'
field: 41001012
41
1
12
And immediately doth the Spirit put him forth to the wilderness,
field: 41001013
41
1
13
and he was there in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by the Adversary, and he was with the beasts, and the messengers were ministering to him.
field: 41001014
41
1
14
And after the delivering up of John, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of the reign of God,
field: 41001015
41
1
15
and saying -- `Fulfilled hath been the time, and the reign of God hath come nigh, reform ye, and believe in the good news.'
field: 41001016
41
1
16
And, walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew his brother, casting a drag into the sea, for they were fishers,
field: 41001017
41
1
17
and Jesus said to them, `Come ye after me, and I shall make you to become fishers of men;'
field: 41001018
41
1
18
and immediately, having left their nets, they followed him.
field: 41001019
41
1
19
And having gone on thence a little, he saw James of Zebedee, and John his brother, and they were in the boat refitting the nets,
field: 41001020
41
1
20
and immediately he called them, and, having left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, they went away after him.
field: 41001021
41
1
21
And they go on to Capernaum, and immediately, on the sabbaths, having gone into the synagogue, he was teaching,
field: 41001022
41
1
22
and they were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
field: 41001023
41
1
23
And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
field: 41001024
41
1
24
saying, `Away! what -- to us and to thee, Jesus the Nazarene? thou didst come to destroy us; I have known thee who thou art -- the Holy One of God.'
field: 41001025
41
1
25
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, `Be silenced, and come forth out of him,'
field: 41001026
41
1
26
and the unclean spirit having torn him, and having cried with a great voice, came forth out of him,
field: 41001027
41
1
27
and they were all amazed, so as to reason among themselves, saying, `What is this? what new teaching `is' this? that with authority also the unclean spirits he commandeth, and they obey him!'
field: 41001028
41
1
28
And the fame of him went forth immediately to all the region, round about, of Galilee.
field: 41001029
41
1
29
And immediately, having come forth out of the synagogue, they went to the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John,
field: 41001030
41
1
30
and the mother-in-law of Simon was lying fevered, and immediately they tell him about her,
field: 41001031
41
1
31
and having come near, he raised her up, having laid hold of her hand, and the fever left her immediately, and she was ministering to them.
field: 41001032
41
1
32
And evening having come, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all who were ill, and who were demoniacs,
field: 41001033
41
1
33
and the whole city was gathered together near the door,
field: 41001034
41
1
34
and he healed many who were ill of manifold diseases, and many demons he cast forth, and was not suffering the demons to speak, because they knew him.
field: 41001035
41
1
35
And very early, it being yet night, having risen, he went forth, and went away to a desert place, and was there praying;
field: 41001036
41
1
36
and Simon and those with him went in quest of him,
field: 41001037
41
1
37
and having found him, they say to him, -- `All do seek thee;'
field: 41001038
41
1
38
and he saith to them, `We may go to the next towns, that there also I may preach, for for this I came forth.'
field: 41001039
41
1
39
And he was preaching in their synagogues, in all Galilee, and is casting out the demons,
field: 41001040
41
1
40
and there doth come to him a leper, calling on him, and kneeling to him, and saying to him -- `If thou mayest will, thou art able to cleanse me.'
field: 41001041
41
1
41
And Jesus having been moved with compassion, having stretched forth the hand, touched him, and saith to him, `I will; be thou cleansed;'
field: 41001042
41
1
42
and he having spoken, immediately the leprosy went away from him, and he was cleansed.
field: 41001043
41
1
43
And having sternly charged him, immediately he put him forth,
field: 41001044
41
1
44
and saith to him, `See thou mayest say nothing to any one, but go away, thyself shew to the priest, and bring near for thy cleansing the things Moses directed, for a testimony to them.'
field: 41001045
41
1
45
And he, having gone forth, began to proclaim much, and to spread abroad the thing, so that no more he was able openly to enter into the city, but he was without in desert places, and they were coming unto him from every quarter.
field: 41002001
41
2
1
And again he entered into Capernaum, after `some' days, and it was heard that he is in the house,
field: 41002002
41
2
2
and immediately many were gathered together, so that there was no more room, not even at the door, and he was speaking to them the word.
field: 41002003
41
2
3
And they come unto him, bringing a paralytic, borne by four,
field: 41002004
41
2
4
and not being able to come near to him because of the multitude, they uncovered the roof where he was, and, having broken `it' up, they let down the couch on which the paralytic was lying,
field: 41002005
41
2
5
and Jesus having seen their faith, saith to the paralytic, `Child, thy sins have been forgiven thee.'
field: 41002006
41
2
6
And there were certain of the scribes there sitting, and reasoning in their hearts,
field: 41002007
41
2
7
`Why doth this one thus speak evil words? who is able to forgive sins except one -- God?'
field: 41002008
41
2
8
And immediately Jesus, having known in his spirit that they thus reason in themselves, said to them, `Why these things reason ye in your hearts?
field: 41002009
41
2
9
which is easier, to say to the paralytic, The sins have been forgiven to thee? or to say, Rise, and take up thy couch, and walk?
field: 41002010
41
2
10
`And, that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority on the earth to forgive sins -- (he saith to the paralytic) --
field: 41002011
41
2
11
I say to thee, Rise, and take up thy couch, and go away to thy house;'
field: 41002012
41
2
12
and he rose immediately, and having taken up the couch, he went forth before all, so that all were astonished, and do glorify God, saying -- `Never thus did we see.'
field: 41002013
41
2
13
And he went forth again by the sea, and all the multitude was coming unto him, and he was teaching them,
field: 41002014
41
2
14
and passing by, he saw Levi of Alpheus sitting at the tax-office, and saith to him, `Be following me,' and he, having risen, did follow him.
field: 41002015
41
2
15
And it came to pass, in his reclining (at meat) in his house, that many tax-gatherers and sinners were reclining (at meat) with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many, and they followed him.
field: 41002016
41
2
16
And the scribes and the Pharisees, having seen him eating with the tax-gatherers and sinners, said to his disciples, `Why -- that with the tax-gatherers and sinners he doth eat and drink?'
field: 41002017
41
2
17
And Jesus, having heard, saith to them, `They who are strong have no need of a physician, but they who are ill; I came not to call righteous men, but sinners to reformation.'
field: 41002018
41
2
18
And the disciples of John and those of the Pharisees were fasting, and they come and say to him, `Wherefore do the disciples of John and those of the Pharisees fast, and thy disciples do not fast?'
field: 41002019
41
2
19
And Jesus said to them, `Are the sons of the bride-chamber able, while the bridegroom is with them, to fast? so long time as they have the bridegroom with them they are not able to fast;
field: 41002020
41
2
20
but days shall come when the bridegroom may be taken from them, and then they shall fast -- in those days.
field: 41002021
41
2
21
`And no one a patch of undressed cloth doth sew on an old garment, and if not -- the new filling it up doth take from the old and the rent doth become worse;
field: 41002022
41
2
22
and no one doth put new wine into old skins, and if not -- the new wine doth burst the skins, and the wine is poured out, and the skins will be destroyed; but new wine into new skins is to be put.'
field: 41002023
41
2
23
And it came to pass -- he is going along on the sabbaths through the corn-fields -- and his disciples began to make a way, plucking the ears,
field: 41002024
41
2
24
and the Pharisees said to him, `Lo, why do they on the sabbaths that which is not lawful?'
field: 41002025
41
2
25
And he said to them, `Did ye never read what David did, when he had need and was hungry, he and those with him?
field: 41002026
41
2
26
how he went into the house of God, (at `Abiathar the chief priest,') and the loaves of the presentation did eat, which it is not lawful to eat, except to the priests, and he gave also to those who were with him?'
field: 41002027
41
2
27
And he said to them, `The sabbath for man was made, not man for the sabbath,
field: 41002028
41
2
28
so that the son of man is lord also of the sabbath.'
field: 41003001
41
3
1
And he entered again into the synagogue, and there was there a man having the hand withered,
field: 41003002
41
3
2
and they were watching him, whether on the sabbaths he will heal him, that they might accuse him.
field: 41003003
41
3
3
And he saith to the man having the hand withered, `Rise up in the midst.'
field: 41003004
41
3
4
And he saith to them, `Is it lawful on the sabbaths to do good, or to do evil? life to save, or to kill?' but they were silent.
field: 41003005
41
3
5
And having looked round upon them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their heart, he saith to the man, `Stretch forth thy hand;' and he stretched forth, and his hand was restored whole as the other;
field: 41003006
41
3
6
and the Pharisees having gone forth, immediately, with the Herodians, were taking counsel against him how they might destroy him.
field: 41003007
41
3
7
And Jesus withdrew with his disciples unto the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judea,
field: 41003008
41
3
8
and from Jerusalem, and from Idumea and beyond the Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon -- a great multitude -- having heard how great things he was doing, came unto him.
field: 41003009
41
3
9
And he said to his disciples that a little boat may wait on him, because of the multitude, that they may not press upon him,
field: 41003010
41
3
10
for he did heal many, so that they threw themselves on him, in order to touch him -- as many as had plagues;
field: 41003011
41
3
11
and the unclean spirits, when they were seeing him, were falling down before him, and were crying, saying -- `Thou art the Son of God;'
field: 41003012
41
3
12
and many times he was charging them that they might not make him manifest.
field: 41003013
41
3
13
And he goeth up to the mountain, and doth call near whom he willed, and they went away to him;
field: 41003014
41
3
14
and he appointed twelve, that they may be with him, and that he may send them forth to preach,
field: 41003015
41
3
15
and to have power to heal the sicknesses, and to cast out the demons.
field: 41003016
41
3
16
And he put on Simon the name Peter;
field: 41003017
41
3
17
and James of Zebedee, and John the brother of James, and he put on them names -- Boanerges, that is, `Sons of thunder;'
field: 41003018
41
3
18
and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James of Alpheus, and Thaddeus, and Simon the Cananite,
field: 41003019
41
3
19
and Judas Iscariot, who did also deliver him up; and they come into a house.
field: 41003020
41
3
20
And come together again doth a multitude, so that they are not able even to eat bread;
field: 41003021
41
3
21
and his friends having heard, went forth to lay hold on him, for they said that he was beside himself,
field: 41003022
41
3
22
and the scribes who `are' from Jerusalem having come down, said -- `He hath Beelzeboul,' and -- `By the ruler of the demons he doth cast out the demons.'
field: 41003023
41
3
23
And, having called them near, in similes he said to them, `How is the Adversary able to cast out the Adversary?
field: 41003024
41
3
24
and if a kingdom against itself be divided, that kingdom cannot be made to stand;
field: 41003025
41
3
25
and if a house against itself be divided, that house cannot be made to stand;
field: 41003026
41
3
26
and if the Adversary did rise against himself, and hath been divided, he cannot be made to stand, but hath an end.
field: 41003027
41
3
27
`No one is able the vessels of the strong man -- having entered into his house -- to spoil, if first he may not bind the strong man, and then his house he will spoil.
field: 41003028
41
3
28
`Verily I say to you, that all the sins shall be forgiven to the sons of men, and evil speakings with which they might speak evil,
field: 41003029
41
3
29
but whoever may speak evil in regard to the Holy Spirit hath not forgiveness -- to the age, but is in danger of age-during judgment;'
field: 41003030
41
3
30
because they said, `He hath an unclean spirit.'
field: 41003031
41
3
31
Then come do his brethren and mother, and standing without, they sent unto him, calling him,
field: 41003032
41
3
32
and a multitude was sitting about him, and they said to him, `Lo, thy mother and thy brethren without do seek thee.'
field: 41003033
41
3
33
And he answered them, saying, `Who is my mother, or my brethren?'
field: 41003034
41
3
34
And having looked round in a circle to those sitting about him, he saith, `Lo, my mother and my brethren!
field: 41003035
41
3
35
for whoever may do the will of God, he is my brother, and my sister, and mother.'
field: 41004001
41
4
1
And again he began to teach by the sea, and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he, having gone into the boat, sat in the sea, and all the multitude was near the sea, on the land,
field: 41004002
41
4
2
and he taught them many things in similes, and he said to them in his teaching:
field: 41004003
41
4
3
`Hearken, lo, the sower went forth to sow;
field: 41004004
41
4
4
and it came to pass, in the sowing, some fell by the way, and the fowls of the heaven did come and devour it;
field: 41004005
41
4
5
and other fell upon the rocky ground, where it had not much earth, and immediately it sprang forth, because of not having depth of earth,
field: 41004006
41
4
6
and the sun having risen, it was scorched, and because of not having root it did wither;
field: 41004007
41
4
7
and other fell toward the thorns, and the thorns did come up, and choke it, and fruit it gave not;
field: 41004008
41
4
8
and other fell to the good ground, and was giving fruit, coming up and increasing, and it bare, one thirty-fold, and one sixty, and one an hundred.'
field: 41004009
41
4
9
And he said to them, `He who is having ears to hear -- let him hear.'
field: 41004010
41
4
10
And when he was alone, those about him, with the twelve, did ask him of the simile,
field: 41004011
41
4
11
and he said to them, `To you it hath been given to know the secret of the reign of God, but to those who are without, in similes are all the things done;
field: 41004012
41
4
12
that seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing they may hear and not understand, lest they may turn, and the sins may be forgiven them.'
field: 41004013
41
4
13
And he saith to them, `Have ye not known this simile? and how shall ye know all the similes?
field: 41004014
41
4
14
He who is sowing doth sow the word;
field: 41004015
41
4
15
and these are they by the way where the word is sown: and whenever they may hear, immediately cometh the Adversary, and he taketh away the word that hath been sown in their hearts.
field: 41004016
41
4
16
`And these are they, in like manner, who on the rocky ground are sown: who, whenever they may hear the word, immediately with joy do receive it,
field: 41004017
41
4
17
and have not root in themselves, but are temporary; afterward tribulation or persecution having come because of the word, immediately they are stumbled.
field: 41004018
41
4
18
`And these are they who toward the thorns are sown: these are they who are hearing the word,
field: 41004019
41
4
19
and the anxieties of this age, and the deceitfulness of the riches, and the desires concerning the other things, entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
field: 41004020
41

`And these are they who on the good ground have been sown: who do hear the word, and receive, and do bear fruit, one thirty-fold, and one sixty, and one an hundred.'
field: 41004021
41
4
21
And he said to them, `Doth the lamp come that under the measure it may be put, or under the couch -- not that it may be put on the lamp-stand?
field: 41004022
41
4
22
for there is not anything hid that may not be manifested, nor was anything kept hid but that it may come to light.
field: 41004023
41
4
23
If any hath ears to hear -- let him hear.'
field: 41004024
41
4
24
And he said to them, `Take heed what ye hear; in what measure ye measure, it shall be measured to you; and to you who hear it shall be added;
field: 41004025
41
4
25
for whoever may have, there shall be given to him, and whoever hath not, also that which he hath shall be taken from him.'
field: 41004026
41
4
26
And he said, `Thus is the reign of God: as if a man may cast the seed on the earth,
field: 41004027
41
4
27
and may sleep, and may rise night and day, and the seed spring up and grow, he hath not known how;
field: 41004028
41
4
28
for of itself doth the earth bear fruit, first a blade, afterwards an ear, afterwards full corn in the ear;
field: 41004029
41
4
29
and whenever the fruit may yield itself, immediately he doth send forth the sickle, because the harvest hath come.'
field: 41004030
41
4
30
And he said, `To what may we liken the reign of God, or in what simile may we compare it?
field: 41004031
41
4
31
As a grain of mustard, which, whenever it may be sown on the earth, is less than any of the seeds that are on the earth;
field: 41004032
41
4
32
and whenever it may be sown, it cometh up, and doth become greater than any of the herbs, and doth make great branches, so that under its shade the fowls of the heaven are able to rest.'
field: 41004033
41
4
33
And with many such similes he was speaking to them the word, as they were able to hear,
field: 41004034
41
4
34
and without a simile he was not speaking to them, and by themselves, to his disciples he was expounding all.
field: 41004035
41
4
35
And he saith to them on that day, evening having come, `We may pass over to the other side;'
field: 41004036
41
4
36
and having let away the multitude, they take him up as he was in the boat, and other little boats also were with him.
field: 41004037
41
4
37
And there cometh a great storm of wind, and the waves were beating on the boat, so that it is now being filled,
field: 41004038
41
4
38
and he himself was upon the stern, upon the pillow sleeping, and they wake him up, and say to him, `Teacher, art thou not caring that we perish?'
field: 41004039
41
4
39
And having waked up, he rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, `Peace, be stilled;' and the wind did lull, and there was a great calm:
field: 41004040
41
4
40
and he said to them, `Why are ye so fearful? how have ye not faith?'
field: 41004041
41
4
41
and they feared a great fear, and said one to another, `Who, then, is this, that even the wind and the sea do obey him?'
field: 41005001
41
5
1
And they came to the other side of the sea, to the region of the Gadarenes,
field: 41005002
41
5
2
and he having come forth out of the boat, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,
field: 41005003
41
5
3
who had his dwelling in the tombs, and not even with chains was any one able to bind him,
field: 41005004
41
5
4
because that he many times with fetters and chains had been bound, and pulled in pieces by him had been the chains, and the fetters broken in pieces, and none was able to tame him,
field: 41005005
41
5
5
and always, night and day, in the mountains, and in the tombs he was, crying and cutting himself with stones.
field: 41005006
41
5
6
And, having seen Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed before him,
field: 41005007
41
5
7
and having called with a loud voice, he said, `What -- to me and to thee, Jesus, Son of God the Most High? I adjure thee by God, mayest thou not afflict me!'
field: 41005008
41
5
8
(for he said to him, `Come forth, spirit unclean, out of the man,')
field: 41005009
41
5
9
and he was questioning him, `What `is' thy name?' and he answered, saying, `Legion `is' my name, because we are many;'
field: 41005010
41
5
10
and he was calling on him much, that he may not send them out of the region.
field: 41005011
41
5
11
And there was there, near the mountains, a great herd of swine feeding,
field: 41005012
41
5
12
and all the demons did call upon him, saying, `Send us to the swine, that into them we may enter;'
field: 41005013
41
5
13
and immediately Jesus gave them leave, and having come forth, the unclean spirits did enter into the swine, and the herd did rush down the steep place to the sea -- and they were about two thousand -- and they were choked in the sea.
field: 41005014
41
5
14
And those feeding the swine did flee, and told in the city, and in the fields, and they came forth to see what it is that hath been done;
field: 41005015
41
5
15
and they come unto Jesus, and see the demoniac, sitting, and clothed, and right-minded -- him having had the legion -- and they were afraid;
field: 41005016
41
5
16
and those having seen `it', declared to them how it had come to pass to the demoniac, and about the swine;
field: 41005017
41
5
17
and they began to call upon him to go away from their borders.
field: 41005018
41
5
18
And he having gone into the boat, the demoniac was calling on him that he may be with him,
field: 41005019
41
5
19
and Jesus did not suffer him, but saith to him, `Go away to thy house, unto thine own `friends', and tell them how great things the Lord did to thee, and dealt kindly with thee;
field: 41005020
41
5
20
and he went away, and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how great things Jesus did to him, and all were wondering.
field: 41005021
41
5
21
And Jesus having passed over in the boat again to the other side, there was gathered a great multitude to him, and he was near the sea,
field: 41005022
41
5
22
and lo, there doth come one of the chiefs of the synagogue, by name Jairus, and having seen him, he doth fall at his feet,
field: 41005023
41
5
23
and he was calling upon him much, saying -- `My little daughter is at the last extremity -- that having come, thou mayest lay on her `thy' hands, so that she may be saved, and she shall live;'
field: 41005024
41
5
24
and he went away with him. And there was following him a great multitude, and they were thronging him,
field: 41005025
41
5
25
and a certain woman, having an issue of blood twelve years,
field: 41005026
41
5
26
and many things having suffered under many physicians, and having spent all that she had, and having profited nothing, but rather having come to the worse,
field: 41005027
41
5
27
having heard about Jesus, having come in the multitude behind, she touched his garment,
field: 41005028
41
5
28
for she said -- `If even his garments I may touch, I shall be saved;'
field: 41005029
41
5
29
and immediately was the fountain of her blood dried up, and she knew in the body that she hath been healed of the plague.
field: 41005030
41
5
30
And immediately Jesus having known in himself that out of him power had gone forth, having turned about in the multitude, said, `Who did touch my garments?'
field: 41005031
41
5
31
and his disciples said to him, `Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and thou sayest, `Who did touch me!'
field: 41005032
41
5
32
And he was looking round to see her who did this,
field: 41005033
41
5
33
and the woman, having been afraid, and trembling, knowing what was done on her, came, and fell down before him, and told him all the truth,
field: 41005034
41
5
34
and he said to her, `Daughter, thy faith hath saved thee; go away in peace, and be whole from thy plague.'
field: 41005035
41
5
35
As he is yet speaking, there come from the chief of the synagogue's `house, certain', saying -- `Thy daughter did die, why still dost thou harass the Teacher?'
field: 41005036
41
5
36
And Jesus immediately, having heard the word that is spoken, saith to the chief of the synagogue, `Be not afraid, only believe.'
field: 41005037
41
5
37
And he did not suffer any one to follow with him, except Peter, and James, and John the brother of James;
field: 41005038
41
5
38
and he cometh to the house of the chief of the synagogue, and seeth a tumult, much weeping and wailing;
field: 41005039
41
5
39
and having gone in he saith to them, `Why do ye make a tumult, and weep? the child did not die, but doth sleep;
field: 41005040
41
5
40
and they were laughing at him. And he, having put all forth, doth take the father of the child, and the mother, and those with him, and goeth in where the child is lying,
field: 41005041
41
5
41
and, having taken the hand of the child, he saith to her, `Talitha cumi;' which is, being interpreted, `Damsel (I say to thee), arise.'
field: 41005042
41
5
42
And immediately the damsel arose, and was walking, for she was twelve years `old'; and they were amazed with a great amazement,
field: 41005043
41
5
43
and he charged them much, that no one may know this thing, and he said that there be given to her to eat.
field: 41006001
41
6
1
And he went forth thence, and came to his own country, and his disciples do follow him,
field: 41006002
41
6
2
and sabbath having come, he began in the synagogue to teach, and many hearing were astonished, saying, `Whence hath this one these things? and what the wisdom that was given to him, that also such mighty works through his hands are done?
field: 41006003
41
6
3
Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and brother of James, and Joses, and Judas, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us?' -- and they were being stumbled at him.
field: 41006004
41
6
4
And Jesus said to them -- `A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and among his kindred, and in his own house;'
field: 41006005
41
6
5
and he was not able there any mighty work to do, except on a few infirm people having put hands he did heal `them';
field: 41006006
41
6
6
and he wondered because of their unbelief. And he was going round the villages, in a circle, teaching,
field: 41006007
41
6
7
and he doth call near the twelve, and he began to send them forth two by two, and he was giving them power over the unclean spirits,
field: 41006008
41
6
8
and he commanded them that they may take nothing for the way, except a staff only -- no scrip, no bread, no brass in the girdle,
field: 41006009
41
6
9
but having been shod with sandals, and ye may not put on two coats.
field: 41006010
41
6
10
And he said to them, `Whenever ye may enter into a house, there remain till ye may depart thence,
field: 41006011
41
6
11
and as many as may not receive you, nor hear you, going out thence, shake off the dust that is under your feet for a testimony to them; verily I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom or Gomorrah in a day of judgment than for that city.'
field: 41006012
41
6
12
And having gone forth they were preaching that `men' might reform,
field: 41006013
41
6
13
and many demons they were casting out, and they were anointing with oil many infirm, and they were healing `them'.
field: 41006014
41
6
14
And the king Herod heard, (for his name became public,) and he said -- `John the Baptist out of the dead was raised, and because of this the mighty powers are working in him.'
field: 41006015
41
6
15
Others said -- `It is Elijah,' and others said -- `It is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.'
field: 41006016
41
6
16
And Herod having heard, said -- `He whom I did behead -- John -- this is he; he was raised out of the dead.'
field: 41006017
41
6
17
For Herod himself, having sent forth, did lay hold on John, and bound him in the prison, because of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, because he married her,
field: 41006018
41
6
18
for John said to Herod -- `It is not lawful to thee to have the wife of thy brother;'
field: 41006019
41
6
19
and Herodias was having a quarrel with him, and was willing to kill him, and was not able,
field: 41006020
41
6
20
for Herod was fearing John, knowing him a man righteous and holy, and was keeping watch over him, and having heard him, was doing many things, and hearing him gladly.
field: 41006021
41
6
21
And a seasonable day having come, when Herod on his birthday was making a supper to his great men, and to the chiefs of thousands, and to the first men of Galilee,
field: 41006022
41
6
22
and the daughter of that Herodias having come in, and having danced, and having pleased Herod and those reclining (at meat) with him, the king said to the damsel, `Ask of me whatever thou wilt, and I will give to thee,'
field: 41006023
41
6
23
and he sware to her -- `Whatever thou mayest ask me, I will give to thee -- unto the half of my kingdom.'
field: 41006024
41
6
24
And she, having gone forth, said to her mother, `What shall I ask for myself?' and she said, `The head of John the Baptist;'
field: 41006025
41
6
25
and having come in immediately with haste unto the king, she asked, saying, `I will that thou mayest give me presently, upon a plate, the head of John the Baptist.'
field: 41006026
41
6
26
And the king -- made very sorrowful -- because of the oaths and of those reclining (at meat) with him, would not put her away,
field: 41006027
41
6
27
and immediately the king having sent a guardsman, did command his head to be brought,
field: 41006028
41
6
28
and he having gone, beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head upon a plate, and did give it to the damsel, and the damsel did give it to her mother;
field: 41006029
41
6
29
and having heard, his disciples came and took up his corpse, and laid it in the tomb.
field: 41006030
41
6
30
And the apostles are gathered together unto Jesus, and they told him all, and how many things they did, and how many things they taught,
field: 41006031
41
6
31
and he said to them, `Come ye yourselves apart to a desert place, and rest a little,' for those coming and those going were many, and not even to eat had they opportunity,
field: 41006032
41
6
32
and they went away to a desert place, in the boat, by themselves.
field: 41006033
41
6
33
And the multitudes saw them going away, and many recognised him, and by land from all the cities they ran thither, and went before them, and came together to him,
field: 41006034
41
6
34
and having come forth, Jesus saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion on them, that they were as sheep not having a shepherd, and he began to teach many things.
field: 41006035
41
6
35
And now the hour being advanced, his disciples having come near to him, say, -- `The place is desolate, and the hour is now advanced,
field: 41006036
41
6
36
let them away, that, having gone away to the surrounding fields and villages, they may buy to themselves loaves, for what they may eat they have not.'
field: 41006037
41
6
37
And he answering said to them, `Give ye them to eat,' and they say to him, `Having gone away, may we buy two hundred denaries' worth of loaves, and give to them to eat?'
field: 41006038
41
6
38
And he saith to them, `How many loaves have ye? go and see;' and having known, they say, `Five, and two fishes.'
field: 41006039
41
6
39
And he commanded them to make all recline in companies upon the green grass,
field: 41006040
41
6
40
and they sat down in squares, by hundreds, and by fifties.
field: 41006041
41
6
41
And having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, he blessed, and brake the loaves, and was giving to his disciples, that they may set before them, and the two fishes divided he to all,
field: 41006042
41
6
42
and they did all eat, and were filled,
field: 41006043
41
6
43
and they took up of broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full, and of the fishes,
field: 41006044
41
6
44
and those eating of the loaves were about five thousand men.
field: 41006045
41
6
45
And immediately he constrained his disciples to go into the boat, and to go before to the other side, unto Bethsaida, till he may let the multitude away,
field: 41006046
41
6
46
and having taken leave of them, he went away to the mountain to pray.
field: 41006047
41
6
47
And evening having come, the boat was in the midst of the sea, and he alone upon the land;
field: 41006048
41
6
48
and he saw them harassed in the rowing, for the wind was against them, and about the fourth watch of the night he doth come to them walking on the sea, and wished to pass by them.
field: 41006049
41
6
49
And they having seen him walking on the sea, thought `it' to be an apparition, and cried out,
field: 41006050
41
6
50
for they all saw him, and were troubled, and immediately he spake with them, and saith to them, `Take courage, I am `he', be not afraid.'
field: 41006051
41
6
51
And he went up unto them to the boat, and the wind lulled, and greatly out of measure were they amazed in themselves, and were wondering,
field: 41006052
41
6
52
for they understood not concerning the loaves, for their heart hath been hard.
field: 41006053
41
6
53
And having passed over, they came upon the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore,
field: 41006054
41
6
54
and they having come forth out of the boat, immediately having recognised him,
field: 41006055
41
6
55
having run about through all that region round about, they began upon the couches to carry about those ill, where they were hearing that he is,
field: 41006056
41
6
56
and wherever he was going, to villages, or cities, or fields, in the market-places they were laying the infirm, and were calling upon him, that they may touch if it were but the fringe of his garment, and as many as were touching him were saved.
field: 41007001
41
7
1
And gathered together unto him are the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, having come from Jerusalem,
field: 41007002
41
7
2
and having seen certain of his disciples with defiled hands -- that is, unwashed -- eating bread, they found fault;
field: 41007003
41
7
3
for the Pharisees, and all the Jews, if they do not wash the hands to the wrist, do not eat, holding the tradition of the elders,
field: 41007004
41
7
4
and, `coming' from the market-place, if they do not baptize themselves, they do not eat; and many other things there are that they received to hold, baptisms of cups, and pots, and brazen vessels, and couches.
field: 41007005
41
7
5
Then question him do the Pharisees and the scribes, `Wherefore do thy disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but with unwashed hands do eat the bread?'
field: 41007006
41
7
6
and he answering said to them -- `Well did Isaiah prophesy concerning you, hypocrites, as it hath been written, This people with the lips doth honor Me, and their heart is far from Me;
field: 41007007
41
7
7
and in vain do they worship Me, teaching teachings, commands of men;
field: 41007008
41
7
8
for, having put away the command of God, ye hold the tradition of men, baptisms of pots and cups; and many other such like things ye do.'
field: 41007009
41
7
9
And he said to them, `Well do ye put away the command of God that your tradition ye may keep;
field: 41007010
41
7
10
for Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, He who is speaking evil of father or mother -- let him die the death;
field: 41007011
41
7
11
and ye say, If a man may say to father or to mother, Korban (that is, a gift), `is' whatever thou mayest be profited out of mine,
field: 41007012
41
7
12
and no more do ye suffer him to do anything for his father or for his mother,
field: 41007013
41
7
13
setting aside the word of God for your tradition that ye delivered; and many such like things ye do.'
field: 41007014
41
7
14
And having called near all the multitude, he said to them, `Hearken to me, ye all, and understand;
field: 41007015
41
7
15
there is nothing from without the man entering into him that is able to defile him, but the things coming out from him, those are the things defiling the man.
field: 41007016
41
7
16
If any hath ears to hear -- let him hear.'
field: 41007017
41
7
17
And when he entered into a house from the multitude, his disciples were questioning him about the simile,
field: 41007018
41
7
18
and he saith to them, `So also ye are without understanding! Do ye not perceive that nothing from without entering into the man is able to defile him?
field: 41007019
41
7
19
because it doth not enter into his heart, but into the belly, and into the drain it doth go out, purifying all the meats.'
field: 41007020
41
7
20
And he said -- `That which is coming out from the man, that doth defile the man;
field: 41007021
41
7
21
for from within, out of the heart of men, the evil reasonings do come forth, adulteries, whoredoms, murders,
field: 41007022
41
7
22
thefts, covetous desires, wickedness, deceit, arrogance, an evil eye, evil speaking, pride, foolishness;
field: 41007023

23
all these evils do come forth from within, and they defile the man.'
field: 41007024
41
7
24
And from thence having risen, he went away to the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and having entered into the house, he wished none to know, and he was not able to be hid,
field: 41007025
41
7
25
for a woman having heard about him, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having come, fell at his feet, --
field: 41007026
41
7
26
and the woman was a Greek, a Syro-Phenician by nation -- and was asking him, that the demon he may cast forth out of her daughter.
field: 41007027
41
7
27
And Jesus said to her, `Suffer first the children to be filled, for it is not good to take the children's bread, and to cast `it' to the little dogs.'
field: 41007028
41
7
28
And she answered and saith to him, `Yes, sir; for the little dogs also under the table do eat of the children's crumbs.'
field: 41007029
41
7
29
And he said to her, `Because of this word go; the demon hath gone forth out of thy daughter;'
field: 41007030
41
7
30
and having come away to her house, she found the demon gone forth, and the daughter laid upon the couch.
field: 41007031
41
7
31
And again, having gone forth from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, he came unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis,
field: 41007032
41
7
32
and they bring to him a deaf, stuttering man, and they call on him that he may put the hand on him.
field: 41007033
41
7
33
And having taken him away from the multitude by himself, he put his fingers to his ears, and having spit, he touched his tongue,
field: 41007034
41
7
34
and having looked to the heaven, he sighed, and saith to him, `Ephphatha,' that is, `Be thou opened;'
field: 41007035
41
7
35
and immediately were his ears opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he was speaking plain.
field: 41007036
41
7
36
And he charged them that they may tell no one, but the more he was charging them, the more abundantly they were proclaiming `it',
field: 41007037
41
7
37
and they were being beyond measure astonished, saying, `Well hath he done all things; both the deaf he doth make to hear, and the dumb to speak.'
field: 41008001
41
8
1
In those days the multitude being very great, and not having what they may eat, Jesus having called near his disciples, saith to them,
field: 41008002
41
8
2
`I have compassion upon the multitude, because now three days they do continue with me, and they have not what they may eat;
field: 41008003
41
8
3
and if I shall let them away fasting to their home, they will faint in the way, for certain of them are come from far.'
field: 41008004
41
8
4
And his disciples answered him, `Whence shall any one be able these here to feed with bread in a wilderness?'
field: 41008005
41
8
5
And he was questioning them, `How many loaves have ye?' and they said, `Seven.'
field: 41008006
41
8
6
And he commanded the multitude to sit down upon the ground, and having taken the seven loaves, having given thanks, he brake, and was giving to his disciples that they may set before `them'; and they did set before the multitude.
field: 41008007
41
8
7
And they had a few small fishes, and having blessed, he said to set them also before `them';
field: 41008008
41
8
8
and they did eat and were filled, and they took up that which was over of broken pieces -- seven baskets;
field: 41008009
41
8
9
and those eating were about four thousand. And he let them away,
field: 41008010
41
8
10
and immediately having entered into the boat with his disciples, he came to the parts of Dalmanutha,
field: 41008011
41
8
11
and the Pharisees came forth, and began to dispute with him, seeking from him a sign from the heaven, tempting him;
field: 41008012
41
8
12
and having sighed deeply in his spirit, he saith, `Why doth this generation seek after a sign? Verily I say to you, no sign shall be given to this generation.'
field: 41008013
41
8
13
And having left them, having entered again into the boat, he went away to the other side;
field: 41008014
41
8
14
and they forgot to take loaves, and except one loaf they had nothing with them in the boat,
field: 41008015
41
8
15
and he was charging them, saying, `Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod,'
field: 41008016
41
8
16
and they were reasoning with one another, saying -- `Because we have no loaves.'
field: 41008017
41
8
17
And Jesus having known, saith to them, `Why do ye reason, because ye have no loaves? do ye not yet perceive, nor understand, yet have ye your heart hardened?
field: 41008018
41
8
18
Having eyes, do ye not see? and having ears, do ye not hear? and do ye not remember?
field: 41008019
41
8
19
When the five loaves I did brake to the five thousand, how many hand-baskets full of broken pieces took ye up?' they say to him, `Twelve.'
field: 41008020
41
8
20
`And when the seven to the four thousand, how many hand-baskets full of broken pieces took ye up?' and they said, `Seven.'
field: 41008021
41
8
21
And he said to them, `How do ye not understand?'
field: 41008022
41
8
22
And he cometh to Bethsaida, and they bring to him one blind, and call upon him that he may touch him,
field: 41008023
41
8
23
and having taken the hand of the blind man, he led him forth without the village, and having spit on his eyes, having put `his' hands on him, he was questioning him if he doth behold anything:
field: 41008024
41
8
24
and he, having looked up, said, `I behold men, as I see trees, walking.'
field: 41008025
41
8
25
Afterwards again he put `his' hands on his eyes, and made him look up, and he was restored, and discerned all things clearly,
field: 41008026
41
8
26
and he sent him away to his house, saying, `Neither to the village mayest thou go, nor tell `it' to any in the village.'
field: 41008027
41
8
27
And Jesus went forth, and his disciples, to the villages of Cesarea Philippi, and in the way he was questioning his disciples, saying to them, `Who do men say me to be?'
field: 41008028
41
8
28
And they answered, `John the Baptist, and others Elijah, but others one of the prophets.'
field: 41008029
41
8
29
And he saith to them, `And ye -- who do ye say me to be?' and Peter answering saith to him, `Thou art the Christ.'
field: 41008030
41
8
30
And he strictly charged them that they may tell no one about it,
field: 41008031
41
8
31
and began to teach them, that it behoveth the Son of Man to suffer many things, and to be rejected by the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and to be killed, and after three days to rise again;
field: 41008032
41
8
32
and openly he was speaking the word. And Peter having taken him aside, began to rebuke him,
field: 41008033
41
8
33
and he, having turned, and having looked on his disciples, rebuked Peter, saying, `Get behind me, Adversary, because thou dost not mind the things of God, but the things of men.'
field: 41008034
41
8
34
And having called near the multitude, with his disciples, he said to them, `Whoever doth will to come after me -- let him disown himself, and take up his cross, and follow me;
field: 41008035
41
8
35
for whoever may will to save his life shall lose it; and whoever may lose his life for my sake and for the good news' sake, he shall save it;
field: 41008036
41
8
36
for what shall it profit a man, if he may gain the whole world, and forfeit his life?
field: 41008037
41
8
37
Or what shall a man give as an exchange for his life?
field: 41008038
41
8
38
for whoever may be ashamed of me, and of my words, in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also shall be ashamed of him, when he may come in the glory of his Father, with the holy messengers.'
field: 41009001
41
9
1
And he said to them, `Verily I say to you, That there are certain of those standing here, who may not taste of death till they see the reign of God having come in power.'
field: 41009002
41
9
2
And after six days doth Jesus take Peter, and James, and John, and bringeth them up to a high mount by themselves, alone, and he was transfigured before them,
field: 41009003
41
9
3
and his garments became glittering, white exceedingly, as snow, so as a fuller upon the earth is not able to whiten `them'.
field: 41009004
41
9
4
And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.
field: 41009005
41
9
5
And Peter answering saith to Jesus, `Rabbi, it is good to us to be here; and we may make three booths, for thee one, and for Moses one, and for Elijah one:'
field: 41009006
41
9
6
for he was not knowing what he might say, for they were greatly afraid.
field: 41009007
41
9
7
And there came a cloud overshadowing them, and there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, `This is My Son -- the Beloved, hear ye him;'
field: 41009008
41
9
8
and suddenly, having looked around, they saw no one any more, but Jesus only with themselves.
field: 41009009
41
9
9
And as they are coming down from the mount, he charged them that they may declare to no one the things that they saw, except when the Son of Man may rise out of the dead;
field: 41009010
41
9
10
and the thing they kept to themselves, questioning together what the rising out of the dead is.
field: 41009011
41
9
11
And they were questioning him, saying, that the scribes say that Elijah it behoveth to come first.
field: 41009012
41
9
12
And he answering said to them, `Elijah indeed, having come first, doth restore all things; and how hath it been written concerning the Son of Man, that many things he may suffer, and be set at nought?
field: 41009013
41
9
13
But I say to you, That also Elijah hath come, and they did to him what they willed, as it hath been written of him.'
field: 41009014
41
9
14
And having come unto the disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and scribes questioning with them,
field: 41009015
41
9
15
and immediately, all the multitude having seen him, were amazed, and running near, were saluting him.
field: 41009016
41
9
16
And he questioned the scribes, `What dispute ye with them?'
field: 41009017
41
9
17
and one out of the multitude answering said, `Teacher, I brought my son unto thee, having a dumb spirit;
field: 41009018
41
9
18
and wherever it doth seize him, it doth tear him, and he foameth, and gnasheth his teeth, and pineth away; and I spake to thy disciples that they may cast it out, and they were not able.'
field: 41009019
41
9
19
And he answering him, said, `O generation unbelieving, till when shall I be with you? till when shall I suffer you? bring him unto me;'
field: 41009020
41
9
20
and they brought him unto him, and he having seen him, immediately the spirit tare him, and he, having fallen upon the earth, was wallowing -- foaming.
field: 41009021
41
9
21
And he questioned his father, `How long time is it since this came to him?' and he said, `From childhood,
field: 41009022
41
9
22
and many times also it cast him into fire, and into water, that it might destroy him; but if thou art able to do anything, help us, having compassion on us.'
field: 41009023
41
9
23
And Jesus said to him, `If thou art able to believe! all things are possible to the one that is believing;'
field: 41009024
41
9
24
and immediately the father of the child, having cried out, with tears said, `I believe, sir; be helping mine unbelief.'
field: 41009025
41
9
25
Jesus having seen that a multitude doth run together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, `Spirit -- dumb and deaf -- I charge thee, come forth out of him, and no more thou mayest enter into him;'
field: 41009026
41
9
26
and having cried, and rent him much, it came forth, and he became as dead, so that many said that he was dead,
field: 41009027
41
9
27
but Jesus, having taken him by the hand, lifted him up, and he arose.
field: 41009028
41
9
28
And he having come into the house, his disciples were questioning him by himself -- `Why were we not able to cast it forth?'
field: 41009029
41
9
29
And he said to them, `This kind is able to come forth with nothing except with prayer and fasting.'
field: 41009030
41
9
30
And having gone forth thence, they were passing through Galilee, and he did not wish that any may know,
field: 41009031
41
9
31
for he was teaching his disciples, and he said to them, `The Son of Man is being delivered to the hands of men, and they shall kill him, and having been killed the third day he shall rise,'
field: 41009032
41
9
32
but they were not understanding the saying, and they were afraid to question him.
field: 41009033
41
9
33
And he came to Capernaum, and being in the house, he was questioning them, `What were ye reasoning in the way among yourselves?'
field: 41009034
41
9
34
and they were silent, for with one another they did reason in the way who is greater;
field: 41009035
41
9
35
and having sat down he called the twelve, and he saith to them, `If any doth will to be first, he shall be last of all, and minister of all.'
field: 41009036
41
9
36
And having taken a child, he set him in the midst of them, and having taken him in his arms, said to them,
field: 41009037
41
9
37
`Whoever may receive one of such children in my name, doth receive me, and whoever may receive me, doth not receive me, but Him who sent me.'
field: 41009038
41
9
38
And John did answer him, saying, `Teacher, we saw a certain one in thy name casting out demons, who doth not follow us, and we forbade him, because he doth not follow us.'
field: 41009039
41
9
39
And Jesus said, `Forbid him not, for there is no one who shall do a mighty work in my name, and shall be able readily to speak evil of me:
field: 41009040
41
9
40
for he who is not against us is for us;
field: 41009041
41
9
41
for whoever may give you to drink a cup of water in my name, because ye are Christ's, verily I say to you, he may not lose his reward;
field: 41009042
41
9
42
and whoever may cause to stumble one of the little ones believing in me, better is it for him if a millstone is hanged about his neck, and he hath been cast into the sea.
field: 41009043
41
9
43
`And if thy hand may cause thee to stumble, cut it off; it is better for thee maimed to enter into the life, than having the two hands, to go away to the gehenna, to the fire -- the unquenchable --
field: 41009044
41
9
44
where there worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched.
field: 41009045
41
9
45
`And if thy foot may cause thee to stumble, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter into the life lame, than having the two feet to be cast to the gehenna, to the fire -- the unquenchable --
field: 41009046
41
9
46
where there worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched.
field: 41009047
41
9
47
And if thine eye may cause thee to stumble, cast it out; it is better for thee one-eyed to enter into the reign of God, than having two eyes, to be cast to the gehenna of the fire --
field: 41009048
41
9
48
where their worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched;
field: 41009049
41
9
49
for every one with fire shall be salted, and every sacrifice with salt shall be salted.
field: 41009050
41
9
50
The salt `is' good, but if the salt may become saltless, in what will ye season `it'? Have in yourselves salt, and have peace in one another.'
field: 41010001
41
10
1
And having risen thence, he doth come to the coasts of Judea, through the other side of the Jordan, and again do multitudes come together unto him, and, as he had been accustomed, again he was teaching them.
field: 41010002
41
10
2
And the Pharisees, having come near, questioned him, if it is lawful for a husband to put away a wife, tempting him,
field: 41010003
41
10
3
and he answering said to them, `What did Moses command you?'
field: 41010004
41
10
4
and they said, `Moses suffered to write a bill of divorce, and to put away.'
field: 41010005
41
10
5
And Jesus answering said to them, `For the stiffness of your heart he wrote you this command,
field: 41010006
41
10
6
but from the beginning of the creation, a male and a female God did make them;
field: 41010007
41
10
7
on this account shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife,
field: 41010008
41
10
8
and they shall be -- the two -- for one flesh; so that they are no more two, but one flesh;
field: 41010009
41
10
9
what therefore God did join together, let not man put asunder.'
field: 41010010
41
10
10
And in the house again his disciples of the same thing questioned him,
field: 41010011
41
10
11
and he saith to them, `Whoever may put away his wife, and may marry another, doth commit adultery against her;
field: 41010012
41
10
12
and if a woman may put away her husband, and is married to another, she committeth adultery.'
field: 41010013
41
10
13
And they were bringing to him children, that he might touch them, and the disciples were rebuking those bringing them,
field: 41010014
41
10
14
and Jesus having seen, was much displeased, and he said to them, `Suffer the children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the reign of God;
field: 41010015
41
10
15
verily I say to you, whoever may not receive the reign of God, as a child -- he may not enter into it;'
field: 41010016
41
10
16
and having taken them in his arms, having put `his' hands upon them, he was blessing them.
field: 41010017
41
10
17
And as he is going forth into the way, one having run and having kneeled to him, was questioning him, `Good teacher, what may I do, that life age-during I may inherit?'
field: 41010018
41
10
18
And Jesus said to him, `Why me dost thou call good? no one `is' good except One -- God;
field: 41010019
41
10
19
the commands thou hast known: Thou mayest not commit adultery, Thou mayest do no murder, Thou mayest not steal, Thou mayest not bear false witness, Thou mayest not defraud, Honour thy father and mother.'
field: 41010020
41
10
20
And he answering said to him, `Teacher, all these did I keep from my youth.'
field: 41010021
41
10
21
And Jesus having looked upon him, did love him, and said to him, `One thing thou dost lack; go away, whatever thou hast -- sell, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come, be following me, having taken up the cross.'
field: 41010022
41
10
22
And he -- gloomy at the word -- went away sorrowing, for he was having many possessions.
field: 41010023
41
10
23
And Jesus having looked round, saith to his disciples, `How hardly shall they who have riches enter into the reign of God!'
field: 41010024
41
10
24
And the disciples were astonished at his words, and Jesus again answering saith to them, `Children, how hard is it to those trusting on the riches to enter into the reign of God!
field: 41010025
41
10
25
It is easier for a camel through the eye of the needle to enter, than for a rich man to enter into the reign of God.'
field: 41010026
41
10
26
And they were astonished beyond measure, saying unto themselves, `And who is able to be saved?'
field: 41010027
41
10
27
And Jesus, having looked upon them, saith, `With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.'
field: 41010028
41
10
28
And Peter began to say to him, `Lo, we left all, and we followed thee.'
field: 41010029
41
10
29
And Jesus answering said, `Verily I say to you, there is no one who left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for my sake, and for the good news',
field: 41010030
41
10
30
who may not receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and fields, with persecutions, and in the age that is coming, life age-during;
field: 41010031
41
10
31
and many first shall be last, and the last first.'
field: 41010032
41
10
32
And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them, and they were amazed, and following they were afraid. And having again taken the twelve, he began to tell them the things about to happen to him,
field: 41010033
41
10
33
-- `Lo, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man shall be delivered to the chief priests, and to the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the nations,
field: 41010034
41
10
34
and they shall mock him, and scourge him, and spit on him, and kill him, and the third day he shall rise again.'
field: 41010035
41
10
35
And there come near to him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying, `Teacher, we wish that whatever we may ask for ourselves, thou mayest do for us;'
field: 41010036
41
10
36
and he said to them, `What do ye wish me to do for you?'
field: 41010037
41
10
37
and they said to him, `Grant to us that, one on thy right hand and one on thy left, we may sit in thy glory;'
field: 41010038
41
10
38
and Jesus said to them, `Ye have not known what ye ask; are ye able to drink of the cup that I drink of, and with the baptism that I am baptized with -- to be baptized?'
field: 41010039
41
10
39
And they said to him, `We are able;' and Jesus said to them, `Of the cup indeed that I drink of, ye shall drink, and with the baptism that I am baptized with, ye shall be baptized;
field: 41010040
41
10
40
but to sit on my right and on my left, is not mine to give, but -- to those for whom it hath been prepared.'
field: 41010041
41
10
41
And the ten having heard, began to be much displeased at James and John,
field: 41010042
41
10
42
but Jesus having called them near, saith to them, `Ye have known that they who are considered to rule the nations do exercise lordship over them, and their great ones do exercise authority upon them;
field: 41010043
41
10
43
but not so shall it be among you; but whoever may will to become great among you, he shall be your minister,
field: 41010044
41
10
44
and whoever of you may will to become first, he shall be servant of all;
field: 41010045
41
10
45
for even the Son of Man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.'
field: 41010046
41
10
46
And they come to Jericho, and as he is going forth from Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, a son of Timaeus -- Bartimaeus the blind -- was sitting beside the way begging,
field: 41010047
41
10
47
and having heard that it is Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and to say, `The Son of David -- Jesus! deal kindly with me;'
field: 41010048
41
10
48
and many were rebuking him, that he might keep silent, but the more abundantly he cried out, `Son of David, deal kindly with me.'
field: 41010049
41
10
49
And Jesus having stood, he commanded him to be called, and they call the blind man, saying to him, `Take courage, rise, he doth call thee;'
field: 41010050
41
10
50
and he, having cast away his garment, having risen, did come unto Jesus.
field: 41010051
41
10
51
And answering, Jesus saith to him, `What wilt thou I may do to thee?' and the blind man said to him, `Rabboni, that I may see again;'
field: 41010052
41
10
52
and Jesus said to him, `Go, thy faith hath saved thee:' and immediately he saw again, and was following Jesus in the way.
field: 41011001
41
11
1
And when they come nigh to Jerusalem, to Bethphage, and Bethany, unto the mount of the Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,
field: 41011002
41
11
2
and saith to them, `Go away to the village that is over-against you, and immediately, entering into it, ye shall find a colt tied, on which no one of men hath sat, having loosed it, bring `it':
field: 41011003
41
11
3
and if any one may say to you, Why do ye this? say ye that the lord hath need of it, and immediately he will send it hither.'
field: 41011004
41
11
4
And they went away, and found the colt tied at the door without, by the two ways, and they loose it,
field: 41011005
41
11
5
and certain of those standing there said to them, `What do ye -- loosing the colt?'
field: 41011006
41
11
6
and they said to them as Jesus commanded, and they suffered them.
field: 41011007
41
11
7
And they brought the colt unto Jesus, and did cast upon it their garments, and he sat upon it,
field: 41011008
41
11
8
and many did spread their garments in the way, and others were cutting down branches from the trees, and were strewing in the way.
field: 41011009
41
11
9
And those going before and those following were crying out, saying, `Hosanna! blessed `is' he who is coming in the name of the Lord;
field: 41011010
41
11
10
blessed is the coming reign, in the name of the Lord, of our father David; Hosanna in the highest.'
field: 41011011
41
11
11
And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple, and having looked round on all things, it being now evening, he went forth to Bethany with the twelve.
field: 41011012
41
11
12
And on the morrow, they having come forth from Bethany, he hungered,
field: 41011013
41
11
13
and having seen a fig-tree afar off having leaves, he came, if perhaps he shall find anything in it, and having come to it, he found nothing except leaves, for it was not a time of figs,
field: 41011014
41
11
14
and Jesus answering said to it, `No more from thee -- to the age -- may any eat fruit;' and his disciples were hearing.
field: 41011015
41
11
15
And they come to Jerusalem, and Jesus having gone into the temple, began to cast forth those selling and buying in the temple, and the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those selling the doves, he overthrew,
field: 41011016
41
11
16
and he did not suffer that any might bear a vessel through the temple,
field: 41011017
41
11
17
and he was teaching, saying to them, `Hath it not been written -- My house a house of prayer shall be called for all the nations, and ye did make it a den of robbers?'
field: 41011018
41
11
18
And the scribes and the chief priests heard, and they were seeking how they shall destroy him, for they were afraid of him, because all the multitude was astonished at his teaching;
field: 41011019
41
11
19
and when evening came, he was going forth without the city.
field: 41011020
41
11
20
And in the morning, passing by, they saw the fig-tree having been dried up from the roots,
field: 41011021
41
11
21
and Peter having remembered saith to him, `Rabbi, lo, the fig-tree that thou didst curse is dried up.'
field: 41011022
41
11
22
And Jesus answering saith to them, `Have faith of God;
field: 41011023
41
11
23
for verily I say to you, that whoever may say to this mount, Be taken up, and be cast into the sea, and may not doubt in his heart, but may believe that the things that he saith do come to pass, it shall be to him whatever he may say.
field: 41011024
41
11
24
Because of this I say to you, all whatever -- praying -- ye do ask, believe that ye receive, and it shall be to you.
field: 41011025
41
11
25
`And whenever ye may stand praying, forgive, if ye have anything against any one, that your Father also who is in the heavens may forgive you your trespasses;
field: 41011026
41
11
26
and, if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father who is in the heavens forgive your trespasses.'
field: 41011027
41
11
27
And they come again to Jerusalem, and in the temple, as he is walking, there come unto him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders,
field: 41011028
41
11
28
and they say to him, `By what authority dost thou these things? and who gave thee this authority that these things thou mayest do?'
field: 41011029
41
11
29
And Jesus answering said to them, `I will question you -- I also -- one word; and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things;
field: 41011030
41
11
30
the baptism of John -- from heaven was it? or from men? answer me.'
field: 41011031
41
11
31
And they were reasoning with themselves, saying, `If we may say, From heaven, he will say, Wherefore, then, did ye not believe him?
field: 41011032
41
11
32
But if we may say, From men,' -- they were fearing the people, for all were holding John that he was indeed a prophet;
field: 41011033
41
11
33
and answering they say to Jesus, `We have not known;' and Jesus answering saith to them, `Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.'
field: 41012001
41
12
1
And he began to speak to them in similes: `A man planted a vineyard, and put a hedge around, and digged an under-winevat, and built a tower, and gave it out to husbandmen, and went abroad;
field: 41012002
41
12
2
and he sent unto the husbandmen at the due time a servant, that from the husbandmen he may receive from the fruit of the vineyard,
field: 41012003
41
12
3
and they, having taken him, did severely beat `him', and did send him away empty.
field: 41012004
41
12
4
`And again he sent unto them another servant, and at that one having cast stones, they wounded `him' in the head, and sent away -- dishonoured.
field: 41012005
41
12
5
`And again he sent another, and that one they killed; and many others, some beating, and some killing.
field: 41012006
41
12
6
`Having yet therefore one son -- his beloved -- he sent also him unto them last, saying -- They will reverence my son;
field: 41012007
41
12
7
and those husbandmen said among themselves -- This is the heir, come, we may kill him, and ours shall be the inheritance;
field: 41012008
41
12
8
and having taken him, they did kill, and cast `him' forth without the vineyard.
field: 41012009
41
12
9
`What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others.
field: 41012010
41
12
10
And this Writing did ye not read: A stone that the builders rejected, it did become the head of a corner:
field: 41012011
41
12
11
from the Lord was this, and it is wonderful in our eyes.'
field: 41012012
41
12
12
And they were seeking to lay hold on him, and they feared the multitude, for they knew that against them he spake the simile, and having left him, they went away;
field: 41012013
41
12
13
and they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, that they may ensnare him in discourse,
field: 41012014
41
12
14
and they having come, say to him, `Teacher, we have known that thou art true, and thou art not caring for any one, for thou dost not look to the face of men, but in truth the way of God dost teach; is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar or not? may we give, or may we not give?'
field: 41012015
41
12
15
And he, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, `Why me do ye tempt? bring me a denary, that I may see;'
field: 41012016
41
12
16
and they brought, and he saith to them, `Whose `is' this image, and the inscription?' and they said to him, `Caesar's;'
field: 41012017
41
12
17
and Jesus answering said to them, `Give back the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God;' and they did wonder at him.
field: 41012018
41
12
18
And the Sadducees come unto him, who say there is not a rising again, and they questioned him, saying,
field: 41012019
41
12
19
`Teacher, Moses wrote to us, that if any one's brother may die, and may leave a wife, and may leave no children, that his brother may take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.
field: 41012020
41
12
20
`There were then seven brothers, and the first took a wife, and dying, he left no seed;
field: 41012021
41
12
21
and the second took her, and died, neither left he seed, and the third in like manner,
field: 41012022
41
12
22
and the seven took her, and left no seed, last of all died also the woman;
field: 41012023
41
12
23
in the rising again, then, whenever they may rise, of which of them shall she be wife -- for the seven had her as wife?'
field: 41012024
41
12
24
And Jesus answering said to them, `Do ye not because of this go astray, not knowing the Writings, nor the power of God?
field: 41012025
41
12
25
for when they may rise out of the dead, they neither marry nor are they given in marriage, but are as messengers who are in the heavens.
field: 41012026
41
12
26
`And concerning the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the Book of Moses (at The Bush), how God spake to him, saying, I `am' the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;
field: 41012027
41
12
27
he is not the God of dead men, but a God of living men; ye then go greatly astray.'
field: 41012028
41
12
28
And one of the scribes having come near, having heard them disputing, knowing that he answered them well, questioned him, `Which is the first command of all?'
field: 41012029
41
12
29
and Jesus answered him -- `The first of all the commands `is', Hear, O Israel, the Lord is our God, the Lord is one;
field: 41012030
41
12
30
and thou shalt love the Lord thy God out of all thy heart, and out of thy soul, and out of all thine understanding, and out of all thy strength -- this `is' the first command;
field: 41012031
41
12
31
and the second `is' like `it', this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself; -- greater than these there is no other command.'
field: 41012032
41
12
32
And the scribe said to him, `Well, Teacher, in truth thou hast spoken that there is one God, and there is none other but He;
field: 41012033
41
12
33
and to love Him out of all the heart, and out of all the understanding, and out of all the soul, and out of all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as one's self, is more than all the whole burnt-offerings and the sacrifices.'
field: 41012034
41
12
34
And Jesus, having seen him that he answered with understanding, said to him, `Thou art not far from the reign of God;' and no one any more durst question him.
field: 41012035
41
12
35
And Jesus answering said, teaching in the temple, `How say the scribes that the Christ is son of David?
field: 41012036
41
12
36
for David himself said in the Holy Spirit, The Lord said to my lord, Sit thou on My right hand, till I place thine enemies -- thy footstool;
field: 41012037
41
12
37
therefore David himself saith of him Lord, and whence is he his son?' And the great multitude were hearing him gladly,
field: 41012038
41
12
38
and he was saying to them in his teaching, `Beware of the scribes, who will in long robes to walk, and love salutations in the market-places,
field: 41012039
41
12
39
and first seats in the synagogues, and first couches in suppers,
field: 41012040
41
12
40
who are devouring the widows' houses, and for a pretense are making long prayers; these shall receive more abundant judgment.'
field: 41012041
41
12
41
And Jesus having sat down over-against the treasury, was beholding how the multitude do put brass into the treasury, and many rich were putting in much,
field: 41012042
41
12
42
and having come, a poor widow did put in two mites, which are a farthing.
field: 41012043
41
12
43
And having called near his disciples, he saith to them, `Verily I say to you, that this poor widow hath put in more than all those putting into the treasury;
field: 41012044
41
12
44
for all, out of their abundance, put in, but she, out of her want, all that she had put in -- all her living.'
field: 41013001
41
13
1
And as he is going forth out of the temple, one of his disciples saith to him, `Teacher, see! what stones! and what buildings!'
field: 41013002
41
13
2
and Jesus answering said to him, `Seest thou these great buildings? there may not be left a stone upon a stone, that may not be thrown down.'
field: 41013003
41
13
3
And as he is sitting at the mount of the Olives, over-against the temple, Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, were questioning him by himself,
field: 41013004
41
13
4
`Tell us when these things shall be? and what `is' the sign when all these may be about to be fulfilled?'
field: 41013005
41
13
5
And Jesus answering them, began to say, `Take heed lest any one may lead you astray,
field: 41013006
41
13
6
for many shall come in my name, saying -- I am `he', and many they shall lead astray;
field: 41013007
41
13
7
and when ye may hear of wars and reports of wars, be not troubled, for these behove to be, but the end `is' not yet;
field: 41013008
41
13
8
for nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles; beginnings of sorrows `are' these.
field: 41013009
41
13
9
`And take ye heed to yourselves, for they shall deliver you up to sanhedrims, and to synagogues, ye shall be beaten, and before governors and kings ye shall be set for my sake, for a testimony to them;
field: 41013010
41
13
10
and to all the nations it behoveth first that the good news be proclaimed.
field: 41013011
41
13
11
`And when they may lead you, delivering up, be not anxious beforehand what ye may speak, nor premeditate, but whatever may be given to you in that hour, that speak ye, for it is not ye who are speaking, but the Holy Spirit.
field: 41013012
41
13
12
`And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and father child, and children shall rise up against parents, and shall put them to death,
field: 41013013
41
13
13
and ye shall be hated by all because of my name, but he who hath endured to the end -- he shall be saved.
field: 41013014
41
13
14
`And when ye may see the abomination of the desolation, that was spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (whoever is reading let him understand), then those in Judea, let them flee to the mountains;
field: 41013015
41
13
15
and he upon the house-top, let him not come down to the house, nor come in to take anything out of his house;
field: 41013016
41
13
16
and he who is in the field, let him not turn to the things behind, to take up his garment.
field: 41013017
41
13
17
`And wo to those with child, and to those giving suck, in those days;
field: 41013018
41
13
18
and pray ye that your flight may not be in winter,
field: 41013019
41
13
19
for those days shall be tribulation, such as hath not been from the beginning of the creation that God created, till now, and may not be;
field: 41013020
41
13
20
and if the Lord did not shorten the days, no flesh had been saved; but because of the chosen, whom He did choose to Himself, He did shorten the days.
field: 41013021
41
13
21
`And then, if any may say to you, Lo, here `is' the Christ, or, Lo, there, ye may not believe;
field: 41013022
41
13
22
for there shall rise false Christs and false prophets, and they shall give signs and wonders, to seduce, if possible, also the chosen;
field: 41013023
41
13
23
and ye, take heed; lo, I have foretold you all things.
field: 41013024
41
13
24
`But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,
field: 41013025
41
13
25
and the stars of the heaven shall be falling, and the powers that are in the heavens shall be shaken.
field: 41013026
41
13
26
`And then they shall see the Son of Man coming in clouds with much power and glory,
field: 41013027
41
13
27
and then he shall send his messengers, and gather together his chosen from the four winds, from the end of the earth unto the end of heaven.
field: 41013028
41
13
28
`And from the fig-tree learn ye the simile: when the branch may already become tender, and may put forth the leaves, ye know that nigh is the summer;
field: 41013029
41
13
29
so ye, also, when these ye may see coming to pass, ye know that it is nigh, at the doors.
field: 41013030
41
13
30
Verily I say to you, that this generation may not pass away till all these things may come to pass;
field: 41013031
41
13
31
the heaven and the earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
field: 41013032
41
13
32
`And concerning that day and the hour no one hath known -- not even the messengers who are in the heaven, not even the Son -- except the Father.
field: 41013033
41
13
33
Take heed, watch and pray, for ye have not known when the time is;
field: 41013034
41
13
34
as a man who is gone abroad, having left his house, and given to his servants the authority, and to each one his work, did command also the porter that he may watch;
field: 41013035
41
13
35
watch ye, therefore, for ye have not known when the lord of the house doth come, at even, or at midnight, or at cock-crowing, or at the morning;
field: 41013036
41
13
36
lest, having come suddenly, he may find you sleeping;
field: 41013037
41
13
37
and what I say to you, I say to all, Watch.'
field: 41014001
41

And the passover and the unleavened food were after two days, and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how, by guile, having taken hold of him, they might kill him;
field: 41014002
41
14
2
and they said, `Not in the feast, lest there shall be a tumult of the people.'
field: 41014003
41
14
3
And he, being in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, at his reclining (at meat), there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment, of spikenard, very precious, and having broken the alabaster box, did pour on his head;
field: 41014004
41
14
4
and there were certain much displeased within themselves, and saying, `For what hath this waste of the ointment been made?
field: 41014005
41
14
5
for this could have been sold for more than three hundred denaries, and given to the poor;' and they were murmuring at her.
field: 41014006
41
14
6
And Jesus said, `Let her alone; why are ye giving her trouble? a good work she wrought on me;
field: 41014007
41
14
7
for the poor always ye have with you, and whenever ye may will ye are able to do them good, but me ye have not always;
field: 41014008
41
14
8
what she could she did, she anticipated to anoint my body for the embalming.
field: 41014009
41
14
9
Verily I say to you, wherever this good news may be proclaimed in the whole world, what also this woman did shall be spoken of -- for a memorial of her.'
field: 41014010
41
14
10
And Judas the Iscariot, one of the twelve, went away unto the chief priests that he might deliver him up to them,

11
and having heard, they were glad, and promised to give him money, and he was seeking how, conveniently, he might deliver him up.
field: 41014012
41
14
12
And the first day of the unleavened food, when they were killing the passover, his disciples say to him, `Where wilt thou, `that,' having gone, we may prepare, that thou mayest eat the passover?'
field: 41014013
41
14
13
And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith to them, `Go ye away to the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water, follow him;
field: 41014014
41
14
14
and wherever he may go in, say ye to the master of the house -- The Teacher saith, Where is the guest-chamber, where the passover, with my disciples, I may eat?
field: 41014015
41
14
15
and he will shew you a large upper room, furnished, prepared -- there make ready for us.'
field: 41014016
41
14
16
And his disciples went forth, and came to the city, and found as he said to them, and they made ready the passover.
field: 41014017
41
14
17
And evening having come, he cometh with the twelve,
field: 41014018
41
14
18
and as they are reclining, and eating, Jesus said, `Verily I say to you -- one of you, who is eating with me -- shall deliver me up.'
field: 41014019
41
14
19
And they began to be sorrowful, and to say to him, one by one, `Is it I?' and another, `Is it I?'
field: 41014020
41
14
20
And he answering said to them, `One of the twelve who is dipping with me in the dish;
field: 41014021
41
14
21
the Son of Man doth indeed go, as it hath been written concerning him, but wo to that man through whom the Son of Man is delivered up; good were it to him if that man had not been born.'
field: 41014022
41
14
22
And as they are eating, Jesus having taken bread, having blessed, brake, and gave to them, and said, `Take, eat; this is my body.'
field: 41014023
41
14
23
And having taken the cup, having given thanks, he gave to them, and they drank of it -- all;
field: 41014024
41
14
24
and he said to them, `This is my blood of the new covenant, which for many is being poured out;
field: 41014025
41
14
25
verily I say to you, that no more may I drink of the produce of the vine till that day when I may drink it new in the reign of God.'
field: 41014026
41
14
26
And having sung an hymn, they went forth to the mount of the Olives,
field: 41014027
41
14
27
and Jesus saith to them -- `All ye shall be stumbled at me this night, because it hath been written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered abroad,
field: 41014028
41
14
28
but after my having risen I will go before you to Galilee.'
field: 41014029
41
14
29
And Peter said to him, `And if all shall be stumbled, yet not I;'
field: 41014030
41
14
30
And Jesus said to him, `Verily I say to thee, that to-day, this night, before a cock shall crow twice, thrice thou shalt deny me.'
field: 41014031
41
14
31
And he spake the more vehemently, `If it may be necessary for me to die with thee -- I will in nowise deny thee;' and in like manner also said they all.
field: 41014032
41
14
32
And they come to a spot, the name of which `is' Gethsemane, and he saith to his disciples, `Sit ye here till I may pray;'
field: 41014033
41
14
33
and he taketh Peter, and James, and John with him, and began to be amazed, and to be very heavy,
field: 41014034
41
14
34
and he saith to them, `Exceeding sorrowful is my soul -- to death; remain here, and watch.'
field: 41014035
41
14
35
And having gone forward a little, he fell upon the earth, and was praying, that, if it be possible the hour may pass from him,
field: 41014036
41
14
36
and he said, `Abba, Father; all things are possible to Thee; make this cup pass from me; but, not what I will, but what Thou.'
field: 41014037
41
14
37
And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith to Peter, `Simon, thou dost sleep! thou wast not able to watch one hour!
field: 41014038
41
14
38
Watch ye and pray, that ye may not enter into temptation; the spirit indeed is forward, but the flesh weak.'
field: 41014039
41
14
39
And again having gone away, he prayed, the same word saying;
field: 41014040
41
14
40
and having returned, he found them again sleeping, for their eyes were heavy, and they had not known what they might answer him.
field: 41014041
41
14
41
And he cometh the third time, and saith to them, `Sleep on henceforth, and rest -- it is over; the hour did come; lo, the Son of Man is delivered up to the hands of the sinful;
field: 41014042
41
14
42
rise, we may go, lo, he who is delivering me up hath come nigh.'
field: 41014043
41
14
43
And immediately -- while he is yet speaking -- cometh near Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude, with swords and sticks, from the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders;
field: 41014044
41
14
44
and he who is delivering him up had given a token to them, saying, `Whomsoever I shall kiss, he it is, lay hold on him, and lead him away safely,'
field: 41014045
41
14
45
and having come, immediately, having gone near him, he saith, `Rabbi, Rabbi,' and kissed him.
field: 41014046
41
14
46
And they laid on him their hands, and kept hold on him;
field: 41014047
41
14
47
and a certain one of those standing by, having drawn the sword, struck the servant of the chief priest, and took off his ear.
field: 41014048
41
14
48
And Jesus answering said to them, `As against a robber ye came out, with swords and sticks, to take me!
field: 41014049
41
14
49
daily I was with you in the temple teaching, and ye did not lay hold on me -- but that the Writings may be fulfilled.'
field: 41014050
41
14
50
And having left him they all fled;
field: 41014051
41
14
51
and a certain young man was following him, having put a linen cloth about `his' naked body, and the young men lay hold on him,
field: 41014052
41
14
52
and he, having left the linen cloth, did flee from them naked.
field: 41014053
41
14
53
And they led away Jesus unto the chief priest, and come together to him do all the chief priests, and the elders, and the scribes;
field: 41014054
41
14
54
and Peter afar off did follow him, to the inside of the hall of the chief priest, and he was sitting with the officers, and warming himself near the fire.
field: 41014055
41
14
55
And the chief priests and all the sanhedrim were seeking against Jesus testimony -- to put him to death, and they were not finding,
field: 41014056
41
14
56
for many were bearing false testimony against him, and their testimonies were not alike.
field: 41014057
41
14
57
And certain having risen up, were bearing false testimony against him, saying --
field: 41014058
41
14
58
`We heard him saying -- I will throw down this sanctuary made with hands, and by three days, another made without hands I will build;'
field: 41014059
41
14
59
and neither so was their testimony alike.
field: 41014060
41
14
60
And the chief priest, having risen up in the midst, questioned Jesus, saying, `Thou dost not answer anything! what do these testify against thee?'
field: 41014061
41
14
61
and he was keeping silent, and did not answer anything. Again the chief priest was questioning him, and saith to him, `Art thou the Christ -- the Son of the Blessed?'
field: 41014062
41
14
62
and Jesus said, `I am; and ye shall see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power, and coming with the clouds, of the heaven.'
field: 41014063
41
14
63
And the chief priest, having rent his garments, saith, `What need have we yet of witnesses?
field: 41014064
41
14
64
Ye heard the evil speaking, what appeareth to you?' and they all condemned him to be worthy of death,
field: 41014065
41
14
65
and certain began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say to him, `Prophesy;' and the officers were striking him with their palms.
field: 41014066
41
14
66
And Peter being in the hall beneath, there doth come one of the maids of the chief priest,
field: 41014067
41
14
67
and having seen Peter warming himself, having looked on him, she said, `And thou wast with Jesus of Nazareth!'
field: 41014068
41
14
68
and he denied, saying, `I have not known `him', neither do I understand what thou sayest;' and he went forth without to the porch, and a cock crew.
field: 41014069
41
14
69
And the maid having seen him again, began to say to those standing near -- `This is of them;'
field: 41014070
41
14
70
and he was again denying. And after a little again, those standing near said to Peter, `Truly thou art of them, for thou also art a Galilean, and thy speech is alike;'
field: 41014071
41
14
71
and he began to anathematize, and to swear -- `I have not known this man of whom ye speak;'
field: 41014072
41
14
72
and a second time a cock crew, and Peter remembered the saying that Jesus said to him -- `Before a cock crow twice, thou mayest deny me thrice;' and having thought thereon -- he was weeping.
field: 41015001
41
15
1
And immediately, in the morning, the chief priests having made a consultation, with the elders, and scribes, and the whole sanhedrim, having bound Jesus, did lead away, and delivered `him' to Pilate;
field: 41015002
41
15
2
and Pilate questioned him, `Art thou the king of the Jews?' and he answering said to him, `Thou dost say `it'.'
field: 41015003
41
15
3
And the chief priests were accusing him of many things, `but he answered nothing.'
field: 41015004
41
15
4
And Pilate again questioned him, saying, `Thou dost not answer anything! lo, how many things they do testify against thee!'
field: 41015005
41
15
5
and Jesus did no more answer anything, so that Pilate wondered.
field: 41015006
41
15
6
And at every feast he was releasing to them one prisoner, whomsoever they were asking;
field: 41015007
41
15
7
and there was `one' named Barabbas, bound with those making insurrection with him, who had in the insurrection committed murder.
field: 41015008
41
15
8
And the multitude having cried out, began to ask for themselves as he was always doing to them,
field: 41015009
41
15
9
and Pilate answered them, saying, `Will ye `that' I shall release to you the king of the Jews?'
field: 41015010
41
15
10
for he knew that because of envy the chief priests had delivered him up;
field: 41015011
41
15
11
and the chief priests did move the multitude, that he might rather release Barabbas to them.
field: 41015012
41
15
12
And Pilate answering, again said to them, `What, then, will ye `that' I shall do to him whom ye call king of the Jews?'
field: 41015013
41
15
13
and they again cried out, `Crucify him.'
field: 41015014
41
15
14
And Pilate said to them, `Why -- what evil did he?' and they cried out the more vehemently, `Crucify him;'
field: 41015015
41
15
15
and Pilate, wishing to content the multitude, released to them Barabbas, and delivered up Jesus -- having scourged `him' -- that he might be crucified.
field: 41015016
41
15
16
And the soldiers led him away into the hall, which is Praetorium, and call together the whole band,
field: 41015017
41
15
17
and clothe him with purple, and having plaited a crown of thorns, they put `it' on him,
field: 41015018
41
15
18
and began to salute him, `Hail, King of the Jews.'
field: 41015019
41
15
19
And they were smiting him on the head with a reed, and were spitting on him, and having bent the knee, were bowing to him,
field: 41015020
41
15
20
and when they `had' mocked him, they took the purple from off him, and clothed him in his own garments, and they led him forth, that they may crucify him.
field: 41015021
41
15
21
And they impress a certain one passing by -- Simon, a Cyrenian, coming from the field, the father of Alexander and Rufus -- that he may bear his cross,
field: 41015022
41
15
22
and they bring him to the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, `Place of a skull;'
field: 41015023
41
15
23
and they were giving him to drink wine mingled with myrrh, and he did not receive.
field: 41015024
41
15
24
And having crucified him, they were dividing his garments, casting a lot upon them, what each may take;
field: 41015025
41
15
25
and it was the third hour, and they crucified him;
field: 41015026
41
15
26
and the inscription of his accusation was written above -- `The King of the Jews.'
field: 41015027
41
15
27
And with him they crucify two robbers, one on the right hand, and one on his left,
field: 41015028
41
15
28
and the Writing was fulfilled that is saying, `And with lawless ones he was numbered.'
field: 41015029
41
15
29
And those passing by were speaking evil of him, shaking their heads, and saying, `Ah, the thrower down of the sanctuary, and in three days the builder!
field: 41015030
41
15
30
save thyself, and come down from the cross!'
field: 41015031
41
15
31
And in like manner also the chief priests, mocking with one another, with the scribes, said, `Others he saved; himself he is not able to save.
field: 41015032
41
15
32
The Christ! the king of Israel -- let him come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe;' and those crucified with him were reproaching him.
field: 41015033
41
15
33
And the sixth hour having come, darkness came over the whole land till the ninth hour,
field: 41015034
41
15
34
and at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a great voice, saying, `Eloi, Eloi, lamma sabachthani?' which is, being interpreted, `My God, my God, why didst Thou forsake me?'
field: 41015035
41
15
35
And certain of those standing by, having heard, said, `Lo, Elijah he doth call;'
field: 41015036
41
15
36
and one having run, and having filled a spunge with vinegar, having put `it' also on a reed, was giving him to drink, saying, `Let alone, let us see if Elijah doth come to take him down.'
field: 41015037
41
15
37
And Jesus having uttered a loud cry, yielded the spirit,
field: 41015038
41
15
38
and the veil of the sanctuary was rent in two, from top to bottom,
field: 41015039
41
15
39
and the centurion who was standing over-against him, having seen that, having so cried out, he yielded the spirit, said, `Truly this man was Son of God.'
field: 41015040
41
15
40
And there were also women afar off beholding, among whom was also Mary the Magdalene, and Mary of James the less, and of Joses, and Salome,
field: 41015041
41
15
41
(who also, when he was in Galilee, were following him, and were ministering to him,) and many other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.
field: 41015042
41
15
42
And now evening having come, seeing it was the preparation, that is, the fore-sabbath,
field: 41015043
41
15
43
Joseph of Arimathea, an honourable counsellor, who also himself was waiting for the reign of God, came, boldly entered in unto Pilate, and asked the body of Jesus.
field: 41015044
41
15
44
And Pilate wondered if he were already dead, and having called near the centurion, did question him if he were long dead,
field: 41015045
41
15
45
and having known `it' from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.
field: 41015046
41
15
46
And he, having brought fine linen, and having taken him down, wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre that had been hewn out of a rock, and he rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre,
field: 41015047
41
15
47
and Mary the Magdalene, and Mary of Joses, were beholding where he is laid.
field: 41016001
41
16
1
And the sabbath having past, Mary the Magdalene, and Mary of James, and Salome, bought spices, that having come, they may anoint him,
field: 41016002
41
16
2
and early in the morning of the first of the sabbaths, they come unto the sepulchre, at the rising of the sun,
field: 41016003
41
16
3
and they said among themselves, `Who shall roll away for us the stone out of the door of the sepulchre?'
field: 41016004
41
16
4
And having looked, they see that the stone hath been rolled away -- for it was very great,
field: 41016005
41
16
5
and having entered into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right hand, arrayed in a long white robe, and they were amazed.
field: 41016006
41
16
6
And he saith to them, `Be not amazed, ye seek Jesus the Nazarene, the crucified: he did rise -- he is not here; lo, the place where they laid him!
field: 41016007
41
16
7
and go, say to his disciples, and Peter, that he doth go before you to Galilee; there ye shall see him, as he said to you.'
field: 41016008
41
16
8
And, having come forth quickly, they fled from the sepulchre, and trembling and amazement had seized them, and to no one said they anything, for they were afraid.
field: 41016009
41
16
9
And he, having risen in the morning of the first of the sabbaths, did appear first to Mary the Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven demons;
field: 41016010
41
16
10
she having gone, told those who had been with him, mourning and weeping;
field: 41016011
41
16
11
and they, having heard that he is alive, and was seen by her, did not believe.
field: 41016012
41
16
12
And after these things, to two of them, as they are going into a field, walking, he was manifested in another form,
field: 41016013
41
16
13
and they having gone, told to the rest; not even them did they believe.
field: 41016014
41
16
14
Afterwards, as they are reclining (at meat), he was manifested to the eleven, and did reproach their unbelief and stiffness of heart, because they believed not those having seen him being raised;
field: 41016015
41
16
15
and he said to them, `Having gone to all the world, proclaim the good news to all the creation;
field: 41016016
41
16
16
he who hath believed, and hath been baptized, shall be saved; and he who hath not believed, shall be condemned.
field: 41016017
41
16
17
`And signs shall accompany those believing these things; in my name demons they shall cast out; with new tongues they shall speak;
field: 41016018
41
16
18
serpents they shall take up; and if any deadly thing they may drink, it shall not hurt them; on the ailing they shall lay hands, and they shall be well.'
field: 41016019
41
16
19
The Lord, then, indeed, after speaking to them, was received up to the heaven, and sat on the right hand of God;
field: 41016020
41
16
20
and they, having gone forth, did preach everywhere, the Lord working with `them', and confirming the word, through the signs following. Amen.
field: 42001001
42
1
1
Seeing that many did take in hand to set in order a narration of the matters that have been fully assured among us,
field: 42001002
42
1
2
as they did deliver to us, who from the beginning became eye-witnesses, and officers of the Word, --
field: 42001003
42
1
3
it seemed good also to me, having followed from the first after all things exactly, to write to thee in order, most noble Theophilus,
field: 42001004
42
1
4
that thou mayest know the certainty of the things wherein thou wast instructed.
field: 42001005
42
1
5
There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest, by name Zacharias, of the course of Abijah, and his wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name Elisabeth;
field: 42001006
42
1
6
and they were both righteous before God, going on in all the commands and righteousnesses of the Lord blameless,
field: 42001007
42
1
7
and they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and both were advanced in their days.
field: 42001008
42
1
8
And it came to pass, in his acting as priest, in the order of his course before God,
field: 42001009
42
1
9
according to the custom of the priesthood, his lot was to make perfume, having gone into the sanctuary of the Lord,
field: 42001010
42
1
10
and all the multitude of the people were praying without, at the hour of the perfume.
field: 42001011
42
1
11
And there appeared to him a messenger of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of the perfume,
field: 42001012
42
1
12
and Zacharias, having seen, was troubled, and fear fell on him;
field: 42001013
42
1
13
and the messenger said unto him, `Fear not, Zacharias, for thy supplication was heard, and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear a son to thee, and thou shalt call his name John,
field: 42001014
42
1
14
and there shall be joy to thee, and gladness, and many at his birth shall joy,
field: 42001015
42
1
15
for he shall be great before the Lord, and wine and strong drink he may not drink, and of the Holy Spirit he shall be full, even from his mother's womb;
field: 42001016
42
1
16
and many of the sons of Israel he shall turn to the Lord their God,

17
and he shall go before Him, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn hearts of fathers unto children, and disobedient ones to the wisdom of righteous ones, to make ready for the Lord, a people prepared.'
field: 42001018
42
1
18
And Zacharias said unto the messenger, `Whereby shall I know this? for I am aged, and my wife is advanced in her days?'
field: 42001019
42
1
19
And the messenger answering said to him, `I am Gabriel, who have been standing near before God, and I was sent to speak unto thee, and to proclaim these good news to thee,
field: 42001020
42
1
20
and lo, thou shalt be silent, and not able to speak, till the day that these things shall come to pass, because thou didst not believe my words, that shall be fulfilled in their season.'
field: 42001021
42
1
21
And the people were waiting for Zacharias, and wondering at his tarrying in the sanctuary,
field: 42001022
42
1
22
and having come out, he was not able to speak to them, and they perceived that a vision he had seen in the sanctuary, and he was beckoning to them, and did remain dumb.
field: 42001023
42
1
23
And it came to pass, when the days of his service were fulfilled, he went away to his house,
field: 42001024
42
1
24
and after those days, his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying --
field: 42001025
42
1
25
`Thus hath the Lord done to me, in days in which He looked upon `me', to take away my reproach among men.'
field: 42001026
42
1
26
And in the sixth month was the messenger Gabriel sent by God, to a city of Galilee, the name of which `is' Nazareth,
field: 42001027
42
1
27
to a virgin, betrothed to a man, whose name `is' Joseph, of the house of David, and the name of the virgin `is' Mary.
field: 42001028
42
1
28
And the messenger having come in unto her, said, `Hail, favoured one, the Lord `is' with thee; blessed `art' thou among women;'
field: 42001029
42
1
29
and she, having seen, was troubled at his word, and was reasoning of what kind this salutation may be.
field: 42001030
42
1
30
And the messenger said to her, `Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found favour with God;
field: 42001031
42
1
31
and lo, thou shalt conceive in the womb, and shalt bring forth a son, and call his name Jesus;
field: 42001032
42
1
32
he shall be great, and Son of the Highest he shall be called, and the Lord God shall give him the throne of David his father,
field: 42001033
42
1
33
and he shall reign over the house of Jacob to the ages; and of his reign there shall be no end.'
field: 42001034
42
1
34
And Mary said unto the messenger, `How shall this be, seeing a husband I do not know?'
field: 42001035
42
1
35
And the messenger answering said to her, `The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee, therefore also the holy-begotten thing shall be called Son of God;
field: 42001036
42
1
36
and lo, Elisabeth, thy kinswoman, she also hath conceived a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month to her who was called barren;
field: 42001037
42
1
37
because nothing shall be impossible with God.'
field: 42001038
42
1
38
And Mary said, `Lo, the maid-servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to thy saying,' and the messenger went away from her.
field: 42001039
42
1
39
And Mary having arisen in those days, went to the hill-country, with haste, to a city of Judea,
field: 42001040
42
1
40
and entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.
field: 42001041
42
1
41
And it came to pass, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe did leap in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit,
field: 42001042
42
1
42
and spake out with a loud voice, and said, `Blessed `art' thou among women, and blessed `is' the fruit of thy womb;
field: 42001043
42
1
43
and whence `is' this to me, that the mother of my Lord might come unto me?
field: 42001044
42
1
44
for, lo, when the voice of thy salutation came to my ears, leap in gladness did the babe in my womb;
field: 42001045
42
1
45
and happy `is' she who did believe, for there shall be a completion to the things spoken to her from the Lord.'
field: 42001046
42
1
46
And Mary said, `My soul doth magnify the Lord,
field: 42001047
42
1
47
And my spirit was glad on God my Saviour,
field: 42001048
42
1
48
Because He looked on the lowliness of His maid-servant, For, lo, henceforth call me happy shall all the generations,
field: 42001049
42
1
49
For He who is mighty did to me great things, And holy `is' His name,
field: 42001050
42
1
50
And His kindness `is' to generations of generations, To those fearing Him,
field: 42001051
42
1
51
He did powerfully with His arm, He scattered abroad the proud in the thought of their heart,
field: 42001052
42
1
52
He brought down the mighty from thrones, And He exalted the lowly,
field: 42001053
42
1
53
The hungry He did fill with good, And the rich He sent away empty,
field: 42001054
42
1
54
He received again Israel His servant, To remember kindness,
field: 42001055
42
1
55
As He spake unto our fathers, To Abraham and to his seed -- to the age.'
field: 42001056
42
1
56
And Mary remained with her about three months, and turned back to her house.
field: 42001057
42
1
57
And to Elisabeth was the time fulfilled for her bringing forth, and she bare a son,
field: 42001058
42
1
58
and the neighbours and her kindred heard that the Lord was making His kindness great with her, and they were rejoicing with her.
field: 42001059
42
1
59
And it came to pass, on the eighth day, they came to circumcise the child, and they were calling him by the name of his father, Zacharias,
field: 42001060
42
1
60
and his mother answering said, `No, but he shall be called John.'
field: 42001061
42
1
61
And they said unto her -- `There is none among thy kindred who is called by this name,'
field: 42001062
42
1
62
and they were making signs to his father, what he would wish him to be called,
field: 42001063
42
1
63
and having asked for a tablet, he wrote, saying, `John is his name;' and they did all wonder;
field: 42001064
42
1
64
and his mouth was opened presently, and his tongue, and he was speaking, praising God.
field: 42001065
42
1
65
And fear came upon all those dwelling around them, and in all the hill-country of Judea were all these sayings spoken of,
field: 42001066
42
1
66
and all who heard did lay them up in their hearts, saying, `What then shall this child be?' and the hand of the Lord was with him.
field: 42001067
42
1
67
And Zacharias his father was filled with the Holy Spirit, and did prophesy, saying,
field: 42001068
42
1
68
`Blessed `is' the Lord, the God of Israel, Because He did look upon, And wrought redemption for His people,
field: 42001069
42
1
69
And did raise an horn of salvation to us, In the house of David His servant,
field: 42001070
42
1
70
As He spake by the mouth of His holy prophets, Which have been from the age;
field: 42001071
42
1
71
Salvation from our enemies, And out of the hand of all hating us,
field: 42001072
42
1
72
To do kindness with our fathers, And to be mindful of His holy covenant,
field: 42001073
42
1
73
An oath that He sware to Abraham our father,
field: 42001074
42
1
74
To give to us, without fear, Out of the hand of our enemies having been delivered,
field: 42001075
42
1
75
To serve Him, in holiness and righteousness Before Him, all the days of our life.
field: 42001076
42
1
76
And thou, child, Prophet of the Highest Shalt thou be called; For thou shalt go before the face of the Lord, To prepare His ways.
field: 42001077
42
1
77
To give knowledge of salvation to His people In remission of their sins,
field: 42001078
42
1
78
Through the tender mercies of our God, In which the rising from on high did look upon us,
field: 42001079
42
1
79
To give light to those sitting in darkness and death-shade, To guide our feet to a way of peace.'
field: 42001080
42
1
80
And the child grew, and was strengthened in spirit, and he was in the deserts till the day of his shewing unto Israel.
field: 42002001
42
2
1
And it came to pass in those days, there went forth a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world be enrolled --
field: 42002002
42
2
2
this enrollment first came to pass when Cyrenius was governor of Syria --
field: 42002003
42
2
3
and all were going to be enrolled, each to his proper city,
field: 42002004
42
2
4
and Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, that is called Bethlehem, because of his being of the house and family of David,
field: 42002005
42
2
5
to enroll himself with Mary his betrothed wife, being with child.
field: 42002006
42
2
6
And it came to pass, in their being there, the days were fulfilled for her bringing forth,
field: 42002007
42
2
7
and she brought forth her son -- the first-born, and wrapped him up, and laid him down in the manger, because there was not for them a place in the guest-chamber.
field: 42002008
42
2
8
And there were shepherds in the same region, lodging in the field, and keeping the night-watches over their flock,
field: 42002009
42
2
9
and lo, a messenger of the Lord stood over them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they feared a great fear.
field: 42002010
42
2
10
And the messenger said to them, `Fear not, for lo, I bring you good news of great joy, that shall be to all the people --
field: 42002011
42
2
11
because there was born to you to-day a Saviour -- who is Christ the Lord -- in the city of David,
field: 42002012
42
2
12
and this `is' to you the sign: Ye shall find a babe wrapped up, lying in the manger.'
field: 42002013
42
2
13
And suddenly there came with the messenger a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God, and saying,
field: 42002014
42
2
14
`Glory in the highest to God, and upon earth peace, among men -- good will.'
field: 42002015
42
2
15
And it came to pass, when the messengers were gone away from them to the heavens, that the men, the shepherds, said unto one another, `We may go over indeed unto Bethlehem, and see this thing that hath come to pass, that the Lord did make known to us.'
field: 42002016
42
2
16
And they came, having hasted, and found both Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger,
field: 42002017
42
2
17
and having seen, they made known abroad concerning the saying spoken to them concerning the child.
field: 42002018
42
2
18
And all who heard, did wonder concerning the things spoken by the shepherds unto them;
field: 42002019
42
2
19
and Mary was preserving all these things, pondering in her heart;
field: 42002020
42
2
20
and the shepherds turned back, glorifying and praising God, for all those things they heard and saw, as it was spoken unto them.
field: 42002021
42
2
21
And when eight days were fulfilled to circumcise the child, then was his name called Jesus, having been so called by the messenger before his being conceived in the womb.
field: 42002022
42
2
22
And when the days of their purification were fulfilled, according to the law of Moses, they brought him up to Jerusalem, to present to the Lord,
field: 42002023
42
2
23
as it hath been written in the Law of the Lord, -- `Every male opening a womb shall be called holy to the Lord,'
field: 42002024
42
2
24
and to give a sacrifice, according to that said in the Law of the Lord, `A pair of turtle-doves, or two young pigeons.'
field: 42002025
42
2
25
And lo, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name `is' Simeon, and this man is righteous and devout, looking for the comforting of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him,
field: 42002026
42
2
26
and it hath been divinely told him by the Holy Spirit -- not to see death before he may see the Christ of the Lord.
field: 42002027
42
2
27
And he came in the Spirit to the temple, and in the parents bringing in the child Jesus, for their doing according to the custom of the law regarding him,
field: 42002028
42
2
28
then he took him in his arms, and blessed God, and he said,
field: 42002029
42
2
29
`Now Thou dost send away Thy servant, Lord, according to Thy word, in peace,
field: 42002030
42
2
30
because mine eyes did see Thy salvation,
field: 42002031
42
2
31
which Thou didst prepare before the face of all the peoples,
field: 42002032
42
2
32
a light to the uncovering of nations, and the glory of Thy people Israel.'
field: 42002033
42
2
33
And Joseph and his mother were wondering at the things spoken concerning him,
field: 42002034
42
2
34
and Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, `Lo, this `one' is set for the falling and rising again of many in Israel, and for a sign spoken against --
field: 42002035
42
2
35
(and also thine own soul shall a sword pass through) -- that the reasonings of many hearts may be revealed.'
field: 42002036
42
2
36
And there was Anna, a prophetess, daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher, she was much advanced in days, having lived with an husband seven years from her virginity,
field: 42002037
42
2
37
and she `is' a widow of about eighty-four years, who did depart not from the temple, with fasts and supplications serving, night and day,
field: 42002038
42
2
38
and she, at that hour, having come in, was confessing, likewise, to the Lord, and was speaking concerning him, to all those looking for redemption in Jerusalem.
field: 42002039
42
2
39
And when they finished all things, according to the Law of the Lord, they turned back to Galilee, to their city Nazareth;
field: 42002040
42
2
40
and the child grew and was strengthened in spirit, being filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him.
field: 42002041
42
2
41
And his parents were going yearly to Jerusalem, at the feast of the passover,
field: 42002042
42
2
42
and when he became twelve years old, they having gone up to Jerusalem, according to the custom of the feast,
field: 42002043
42
2
43
and having finished the days, in their returning the child Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem, and Joseph and his mother did not know,
field: 42002044
42
2
44
and, having supposed him to be in the company, they went a day's journey, and were seeking him among the kindred and among the acquaintances,
field: 42002045
42
2
45
and not having found him, they turned back to Jerusalem seeking him.
field: 42002046
42
2
46
And it came to pass, after three days, they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both hearing them and questioning them,
field: 42002047
42
2
47
and all those hearing him were astonished at his understanding and answers.
field: 42002048
42
2
48
And, having seen him, they were amazed, and his mother said unto him, `Child, why didst thou thus to us? lo, thy father and I, sorrowing, were seeking thee.'
field: 42002049
42
2
49
And he said unto them, `Why `is it' that ye were seeking me? did ye not know that in the things of my Father it behoveth me to be?'
field: 42002050
42
2
50
and they did not understand the saying that he spake to them,
field: 42002051
42
2
51
and he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and he was subject to them, and his mother was keeping all these sayings in her heart,
field: 42002052
42
2
52
and Jesus was advancing in wisdom, and in stature, and in favour with God and men.
field: 42003001
42
3
1
And in the fifteenth year of the government of Tiberius Caesar -- Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod tetrarch of Galilee, and Philip his brother, tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene --
field: 42003002
42
3
2
Annas and Caiaphas being chief priests -- there came a word of God unto John the son of Zacharias, in the wilderness,
field: 42003003
42
3
3
and he came to all the region round the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of reformation -- to remission of sins,
field: 42003004
42
3
4
as it hath been written in the scroll of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying, `A voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight make ye His paths;
field: 42003005
42
3
5
every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be made low, and the crooked shall become straightness, and the rough become smooth ways;
field: 42003006
42
3
6
and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.'
field: 42003007
42
3
7
Then said he to the multitudes coming forth to be baptised by him, `Brood of vipers! who did prompt you to flee from the coming wrath?
field: 42003008
42
3
8
make, therefore, fruits worthy of the reformation, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have a father -- Abraham; for I say to you, that God is able out of these stones to raise children to Abraham;
field: 42003009
42
3
9
and already also the axe unto the root of the trees is laid, every tree, therefore, not making good fruit is cut down, and to fire it is cast.'
field: 42003010
42
3
10
And the multitudes were questioning him, saying, `What, then, shall we do?'
field: 42003011
42
3
11
and he answering saith to them, `He having two coats -- let him impart to him having none, and he having victuals -- in like manner let him do.'
field: 42003012
42
3
12
And there came also tax-gatherers to be baptised, and they said unto him, `Teacher, what shall we do?'
field: 42003013
42
3
13
and he said unto them, `Exact no more than that directed you.'
field: 42003014
42
3
14
And questioning him also were those warring, saying, `And we, what shall we do?' and he said unto them, `Do violence to no one, nor accuse falsely, and be content with your wages.'
field: 42003015
42
3
15
And the people are looking forward, and all are reasoning in their hearts concerning John, whether or not he may be the Christ;
field: 42003016
42
3
16
John answered, saying to all, `I indeed with water do baptise you, but he cometh who is mightier than I, of whom I am not worthy to loose the latchet of his sandals -- he shall baptise you with the Holy Spirit and with fire;
field: 42003017
42
3
17
whose winnowing shovel `is' in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his floor, and will gather the wheat to his storehouse, and the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.'
field: 42003018
42
3
18
And, therefore, indeed with many other things, exhorting, he was proclaiming good news to the people,
field: 42003019
42
3
19
and Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him concerning Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, and concerning all the evils that Herod did,
field: 42003020
42
3
20
added also this to all, that he shut up John in the prison.
field: 42003021
42
3
21
And it came to pass, in all the people being baptised, Jesus also being baptised, and praying, the heaven was opened,
field: 42003022
42
3
22
and the Holy Spirit came down in a bodily appearance, as if a dove, upon him, and a voice came out of heaven, saying, `Thou art My Son -- the Beloved, in thee I did delight.'
field: 42003023
42
3
23
And Jesus himself was beginning to be about thirty years of age, being, as was supposed, son of Joseph,

And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, turned back from the Jordan, and was brought in the Spirit to the wilderness,
field: 42004002
42
4
2
forty days being tempted by the Devil, and he did not eat anything in those days, and they having been ended, he afterward hungered,
field: 42004003
42
4
3
and the Devil said to him, `If Son thou art of God, speak to this stone that it may become bread.'
field: 42004004
42
4
4
And Jesus answered him, saying, `It hath been written, that, not on bread only shall man live, but on every saying of God.'
field: 42004005
42
4
5
And the Devil having brought him up to an high mountain, shewed to him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time,
field: 42004006
42
4
6
and the Devil said to him, `To thee I will give all this authority, and their glory, because to me it hath been delivered, and to whomsoever I will, I do give it;
field: 42004007
42
4
7
thou, then, if thou mayest bow before me -- all shall be thine.'
field: 42004008
42
4
8
And Jesus answering him said, `Get thee behind me, Adversary, for it hath been written, Thou shalt bow before the Lord thy God, and Him only thou shalt serve.'
field: 42004009
42
4
9
And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, `If the Son thou art of God, cast thyself down hence,
field: 42004010
42
4
10
for it hath been written -- To His messengers He will give charge concerning thee, to guard over thee,
field: 42004011
42
4
11
and -- On hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou mayest dash against a stone thy foot.'
field: 42004012
42
4
12
And Jesus answering said to him -- `It hath been said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.'
field: 42004013
42
4
13
And having ended all temptation, the Devil departed from him till a convenient season.
field: 42004014
42
4
14
And Jesus turned back in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and a fame went forth through all the region round about concerning him,
field: 42004015
42
4
15
and he was teaching in their synagogues, being glorified by all.
field: 42004016
42
4
16
And he came to Nazareth, where he hath been brought up, and he went in, according to his custom, on the sabbath-day, to the synagogue, and stood up to read;
field: 42004017
42
4
17
and there was given over to him a roll of Isaiah the prophet, and having unfolded the roll, he found the place where it hath been written:
field: 42004018
42
4
18
`The Spirit of the Lord `is' upon me, Because He did anoint me; To proclaim good news to the poor, Sent me to heal the broken of heart, To proclaim to captives deliverance, And to blind receiving of sight, To send away the bruised with deliverance,
field: 42004019
42
4
19
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.'
field: 42004020
42
4
20
And having folded the roll, having given `it' back to the officer, he sat down, and the eyes of all in the synagogue were gazing on him.
field: 42004021
42
4
21
And he began to say unto them -- `To-day hath this writing been fulfilled in your ears;'
field: 42004022
42
4
22
and all were bearing testimony to him, and were wondering at the gracious words that are coming forth out of his mouth, and they said, `Is not this the son of Joseph?'
field: 42004023
42
4
23
And he said unto them, `Certainly ye will say to me this simile, Physician, heal thyself; as great things as we heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country;'
field: 42004024
42
4
24
and he said, `Verily I say to you -- No prophet is accepted in his own country;
field: 42004025
42
4
25
and of a truth I say to you, Many widows were in the days of Elijah, in Israel, when the heaven was shut for three years and six months, when great famine came on all the land,
field: 42004026
42
4
26
and unto none of them was Elijah sent, but -- to Sarepta of Sidon, unto a woman, a widow;
field: 42004027
42
4
27
and many lepers were in the time of Elisha the prophet, in Israel, and none of them was cleansed, but -- Naaman the Syrian.'
field: 42004028
42
4
28
And all in the synagogue were filled with wrath, hearing these things,
field: 42004029
42
4
29
and having risen, they put him forth without the city, and brought him unto the brow of the hill on which their city had been built -- to cast him down headlong,
field: 42004030
42
4
30
and he, having gone through the midst of them, went away.
field: 42004031
42
4
31
And he came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and was teaching them on the sabbaths,
field: 42004032
42
4
32
and they were astonished at his teaching, because his word was with authority.
field: 42004033
42
4
33
And in the synagogue was a man, having a spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a great voice,
field: 42004034
42
4
34
saying, `Away, what -- to us and to thee, Jesus, O Nazarene? thou didst come to destroy us; I have known thee who thou art -- the Holy One of God.'
field: 42004035
42
4
35
And Jesus did rebuke him, saying, `Be silenced, and come forth out of him;' and the demon having cast him into the midst, came forth from him, having hurt him nought;
field: 42004036
42
4
36
and amazement came upon all, and they were speaking together, with one another, saying, `What `is' this word, that with authority and power he doth command the unclean spirits, and they come forth?'
field: 42004037
42
4
37
and there was going forth a fame concerning him to every place of the region round about.
field: 42004038
42
4
38
And having risen out of the synagogue, he entered into the house of Simon, and the mother-in-law of Simon was pressed with a great fever, and they did ask him about her,
field: 42004039
42
4
39
and having stood over her, he rebuked the fever, and it left her, and presently, having risen, she was ministering to them.
field: 42004040
42
4
40
And at the setting of the sun, all, as many as had any ailing with manifold sicknesses, brought them unto him, and he on each one of them `his' hands having put, did heal them.
field: 42004041
42
4
41
And demons also were coming forth from many, crying out and saying -- `Thou art the Christ, the Son of God;' and rebuking, he did not suffer them to speak, because they knew him to be the Christ.
field: 42004042
42
4
42
And day having come, having gone forth, he went on to a desert place, and the multitudes were seeking him, and they came unto him, and were staying him -- not to go on from them,
field: 42004043
42
4
43
and he said unto them -- `Also to the other cities it behoveth me to proclaim good news of the reign of God, because for this I have been sent;'
field: 42004044
42
4
44
and he was preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.
field: 42005001
42
5
1
And it came to pass, in the multitude pressing on him to hear the word of God, that he was standing beside the lake of Gennesaret,
field: 42005002
42
5
2
and he saw two boats standing beside the lake, and the fishers, having gone away from them, were washing the nets,
field: 42005003
42
5
3
and having entered into one of the boats, that was Simon's, he asked him to put back a little from the land, and having sat down, was teaching the multitudes out of the boat.
field: 42005004
42
5
4
And when he left off speaking, he said unto Simon, `Put back to the deep, and let down your nets for a draught;'
field: 42005005
42
5
5
and Simon answering said to him, `Master, through the whole night, having laboured, we have taken nothing, but at thy saying I will let down the net.'
field: 42005006
42
5
6
And having done this, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes, and their net was breaking,
field: 42005007
42
5
7
and they beckoned to the partners, who `are' in the other boat, having come, to help them; and they came, and filled both the boats, so that they were sinking.
field: 42005008
42
5
8
And Simon Peter having seen, fell down at the knees of Jesus, saying, `Depart from me, because I am a sinful man, O lord;'
field: 42005009
42
5
9
for astonishment seized him, and all those with him, at the draught of the fishes that they took,
field: 42005010
42
5
10
and in like manner also James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon; and Jesus said unto Simon, `Fear not, henceforth thou shalt be catching men;'
field: 42005011
42
5
11
and they, having brought the boats upon the land, having left all, did follow him.
field: 42005012
42
5
12
And it came to pass, in his being in one of the cities, that lo, a man full of leprosy, and having seen Jesus, having fallen on `his' face, he besought him, saying, `Sir, if thou mayest will, thou art able to cleanse me;'
field: 42005013
42
5
13
and having stretched forth `his' hand, he touched him, having said, `I will; be thou cleansed;' and immediately the leprosy went away from him.
field: 42005014
42
5
14
And he charged him to tell no one, `But, having gone away, shew thyself to the priest, and bring near for thy cleansing according as Moses directed, for a testimony to them;'
field: 42005015
42
5
15
but the more was the report going abroad concerning him, and great multitudes were coming together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities,
field: 42005016
42
5
16
and he was withdrawing himself in the desert places and was praying.
field: 42005017
42
5
17
And it came to pass, on one of the days, that he was teaching, and there were sitting by Pharisees and teachers of the Law, who were come out of every village of Galilee, and Judea, and Jerusalem, and the power of the Lord was -- to heal them.
field: 42005018
42
5
18
And lo, men bearing upon a couch a man, who hath been struck with palsy, and they were seeking to bring him in, and to place before him,
field: 42005019
42
5
19
and not having found by what way they may bring him in because of the multitude, having gone up on the house-top, through the tiles they let him down, with the little couch, into the midst before Jesus,
field: 42005020
42
5
20
and he having seen their faith, said to him, `Man, thy sins have been forgiven thee.'
field: 42005021
42
5
21
And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, `Who is this that doth speak evil words? who is able to forgive sins, except God only?'
field: 42005022
42
5
22
And Jesus having known their reasonings, answering, said unto them, `What reason ye in your hearts?
field: 42005023
42
5
23
which is easier -- to say, Thy sins have been forgiven thee? or to say, Arise, and walk?
field: 42005024
42
5
24
`And that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority upon the earth to forgive sins -- (he said to the one struck with palsy) -- I say to thee, Arise, and having taken up thy little couch, be going on to thy house.'
field: 42005025
42
5
25
And presently having risen before them, having taken up `that' on which he was lying, he went away to his house, glorifying God,
field: 42005026
42
5
26
and astonishment took all, and they were glorifying God, and were filled with fear, saying -- `We saw strange things to-day.'
field: 42005027
42
5
27
And after these things he went forth, and beheld a tax-gatherer, by name Levi, sitting at the tax-office, and said to him, `Be following me;'
field: 42005028
42
5
28
and he, having left all, having arisen, did follow him.
field: 42005029
42
5
29
And Levi made a great entertainment to him in his house, and there was a great multitude of tax-gatherers and others who were with them reclining (at meat),
field: 42005030
42
5
30
and the scribes and the Pharisees among them were murmuring at his disciples, saying, `Wherefore with tax-gatherers and sinners do ye eat and drink?'
field: 42005031
42
5
31
And Jesus answering said unto them, `They who are well have no need of a physician, but they that are ill:
field: 42005032
42
5
32
I came not to call righteous men, but sinners, to reformation.'
field: 42005033
42
5
33
And they said unto him, `Wherefore do the disciples of John fast often, and make supplications -- in like manner also those of the Pharisees -- but thine do eat and drink?'
field: 42005034
42
5
34
And he said unto them, `Are ye able to make the sons of the bride-chamber -- in the bridegroom being with them -- to fast?
field: 42005035
42
5
35
but days will come, and, when the bridegroom may be taken away from them, then they shall fast in those days.'
field: 42005036
42
5
36
And he spake also a simile unto them -- `No one a patch of new clothing doth put on old clothing, and if otherwise, the new also doth make a rent, and with the old the patch doth not agree, that `is' from the new.
field: 42005037
42
5
37
`And no one doth put new wine into old skins, and if otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins, and itself will be poured out, and the skins will be destroyed;
field: 42005038
42
5
38
but new wine into new skins is to be put, and both are preserved together;
field: 42005039
42
5
39
and no one having drunk old `wine', doth immediately wish new, for he saith, The old is better.'
field: 42006001
42
6
1
And it came to pass, on the second-first sabbath, as he is going through the corn fields, that his disciples were plucking the ears, and were eating, rubbing with the hands,
field: 42006002
42
6
2
and certain of the Pharisees said to them, `Why do ye that which is not lawful to do on the sabbaths?'
field: 42006003
42
6
3
And Jesus answering said unto them, `Did ye not read even this that David did, when he hungered, himself and those who are with him,
field: 42006004
42
6
4
how he went into the house of God, and the loaves of the presentation did take, and did eat, and gave also to those with him, which it is not lawful to eat, except only to the priests?'
field: 42006005
42
6
5
and he said to them, -- `The Son of Man is lord also of the sabbath.'
field: 42006006
42
6
6
And it came to pass also, on another sabbath, that he goeth into the synagogue, and teacheth, and there was there a man, and his right hand was withered,
field: 42006007
42
6
7
and the scribes and the Pharisees were watching him, if on the sabbath he will heal, that they might find an accusation against him.
field: 42006008
42
6
8
And he himself had known their reasonings, and said to the man having the withered hand, `Rise, and stand in the midst;' and he having risen, stood.
field: 42006009
42
6
9
Then said Jesus unto them, `I will question you something: Is it lawful on the sabbaths to do good, or to do evil? life to save or to kill?'
field: 42006010
42
6
10
And having looked round on them all, he said to the man, `Stretch forth thy hand;' and he did so, and his hand was restored whole as the other;
field: 42006011
42
6
11
and they were filled with madness, and were speaking with one another what they might do to Jesus.
field: 42006012
42
6
12
And it came to pass in those days, he went forth to the mountain to pray, and was passing the night in the prayer of God,
field: 42006013
42
6
13
and when it became day, he called near his disciples, and having chosen from them twelve, whom also he named apostles,
field: 42006014
42
6
14
(Simon, whom also he named Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
field: 42006015
42
6
15
Matthew and Thomas, James of Alphaeus, and Simon called Zelotes,
field: 42006016
42
6
16
Judas of James, and Judas Iscariot, who also became betrayer;)
field: 42006017
42
6
17
and having come down with them, he stood upon a level spot, and a crowd of his disciples, and a great multitude of the people from all Judea, and Jerusalem, and the maritime Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him, and to be healed of their sicknesses,
field: 42006018
42
6
18
and those harassed by unclean spirits, and they were healed,
field: 42006019
42
6
19
and all the multitude were seeking to touch him, because power from him was going forth, and he was healing all.
field: 42006020
42
6
20
And he, having lifted up his eyes to his disciples, said: `Happy the poor -- because yours is the reign of God.
field: 42006021
42
6
21
`Happy those hungering now -- because ye shall be filled. `Happy those weeping now -- because ye shall laugh.
field: 42006022
42
6
22
`Happy are ye when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you, and shall reproach, and shall cast forth your name as evil, for the Son of Man's sake --
field: 42006023
42
6
23
rejoice in that day, and leap, for lo, your reward `is' great in the heaven, for according to these things were their fathers doing to the prophets.
field: 42006024
42
6
24
`But wo to you -- the rich, because ye have got your comfort.
field: 42006025
42
6
25
`Wo to you who have been filled -- because ye shall hunger. `Wo to you who are laughing now -- because ye shall mourn and weep.
field: 42006026
42
6
26
`Wo to you when all men shall speak well of you -- for according to these things were their fathers doing to false prophets.
field: 42006027
42
6
27
`But I say to you who are hearing, Love your enemies, do good to those hating you,
field: 42006028
42
6
28
bless those cursing you, and pray for those accusing you falsely;
field: 42006029
42
6
29
and to him smiting thee upon the cheek, give also the other, and from him taking away from thee the mantle, also the coat thou mayest not keep back.
field: 42006030
42
6
30
`And to every one who is asking of thee, be giving; and from him who is taking away thy goods, be not asking again;
field: 42006031
42
6
31
and as ye wish that men may do to you, do ye also to them in like manner;
field: 42006032
42
6
32
and -- if ye love those loving you, what grace have ye? for also the sinful love those loving them;
field: 42006033
42
6
33
and if ye do good to those doing good to you, what grace have ye? for also the sinful do the same;
field: 42006034
42
6
34
and if ye lend `to those' of whom ye hope to receive back, what grace have ye? for also the sinful lend to sinners -- that they may receive again as much.
field: 42006035
42
6
35
`But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again, and your reward will be great, and ye shall be sons of the Highest, because He is kind unto the ungracious and evil;
field: 42006036
42
6
36
be ye therefore merciful, as also your Father is merciful.
field: 42006037
42
6
37
`And judge not, and ye may not be judged; condemn not, and ye may not be condemned; release, and ye shall be released.
field: 42006038
42
6
38
`Give, and it shall be given to you; good measure, pressed, and shaken, and running over, they shall give into your bosom; for with that measure with which ye measure, it shall be measured to you again.'
field: 42006039
42
6
39
And he spake a simile to them, `Is blind able to lead blind? shall they not both fall into a pit?
field: 42006040
42
6
40
A disciple is not above his teacher, but every one perfected shall be as his teacher.
field: 42006041
42
6
41
`And why dost thou behold the mote that is in thy brother's eye, and the beam that `is' in thine own eye dost not consider?
field: 42006042
42
6
42
or how art thou able to say to thy brother, Brother, suffer, I may take out the mote that `is' in thine eye -- thyself the beam in thine own eye not beholding? Hypocrite, take first the beam out of thine own eye, and then thou shalt see clearly to take out the mote that `is' in thy brother's eye.
field: 42006043
42
6
43
`For there is not a good tree making bad fruit, nor a bad tree making good fruit;
field: 42006044
42
6
44
for each tree from its own fruit is known, for not from thorns do they gather figs, nor from a bramble do they crop a grape.
field: 42006045
42
6
45
`The good man out of the good treasure of his heart doth bring forth that which `is' good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart doth bring forth that which `is' evil; for out of the abounding of the heart doth his mouth speak.
field: 42006046
42
6
46
`And why do ye call me, Lord, Lord, and do not what I say?
field: 42006047
42

47
Every one who is coming unto me, and is hearing my words, and is doing them, I will shew you to whom he is like;
field: 42006048
42
6
48
he is like to a man building a house, who did dig, and deepen, and laid a foundation upon the rock, and a flood having come, the stream broke forth on that house, and was not able to shake it, for it had been founded upon the rock.

`And he who heard and did not, is like to a man having builded a house upon the earth, without a foundation, against which the stream brake forth, and immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house became great.'
field: 42007001
42
7
1
And when he completed all his sayings in the ears of the people, he went into Capernaum;
field: 42007002
42
7
2
and a certain centurion's servant being ill, was about to die, who was much valued by him,
field: 42007003
42
7
3
and having heard about Jesus, he sent unto him elders of the Jews, beseeching him, that having come he might thoroughly save his servant.
field: 42007004
42
7
4
And they, having come near unto Jesus, were calling upon him earnestly, saying -- `He is worthy to whom thou shalt do this,
field: 42007005
42
7
5
for he doth love our nation, and the synagogue he did build to us.'
field: 42007006
42
7
6
And Jesus was going on with them, and now when he is not far distant from the house the centurion sent unto him friends, saying to him, `Sir, be not troubled, for I am not worthy that under my roof thou mayest enter;
field: 42007007
42
7
7
wherefore not even myself thought I worthy to come unto thee, but say in a word, and my lad shall be healed;
field: 42007008
42
7
8
for I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this `one', Go, and he goeth; and to another, Be coming, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doth `it'.'
field: 42007009
42
7
9
And having heard these things Jesus wondered at him, and having turned to the multitude following him, he said, `I say to you, not even in Israel so much faith did I find;'
field: 42007010
42
7
10
and those sent, having turned back to the house, found the ailing servant in health.
field: 42007011
42
7
11
And it came to pass, on the morrow, he was going on to a city called Nain, and there were going with him many of his disciples, and a great multitude,
field: 42007012
42
7
12
and as he came nigh to the gate of the city, then, lo, one dead was being carried forth, an only son of his mother, and she a widow, and a great multitude of the city was with her.
field: 42007013
42
7
13
And the Lord having seen her, was moved with compassion towards her, and said to her, `Be not weeping;'
field: 42007014
42
7
14
and having come near, he touched the bier, and those bearing `it' stood still, and he said, `Young man, to thee I say, Arise;'
field: 42007015
42
7
15
and the dead sat up, and began to speak, and he gave him to his mother;
field: 42007016
42
7
16
and fear took hold of all, and they were glorifying God, saying -- `A great prophet hath risen among us,' and -- `God did look upon His people.'
field: 42007017
42
7
17
And the account of this went forth in all Judea about him, and in all the region around.
field: 42007018
42
7
18
And the disciples of John told him about all these things,
field: 42007019
42
7
19
and John having called near a certain two of his disciples, sent unto Jesus, saying, `Art thou he who is coming, or for another do we look?'
field: 42007020
42
7
20
And having come near to him, the men said, `John the Baptist sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he who is coming, or for another do we look?'
field: 42007021
42
7
21
And in that hour he cured many from sicknesses, and plagues, and evil spirits, and to many blind he granted sight.
field: 42007022
42
7
22
And Jesus answering said to them, `Having gone on, report to John what ye saw and heard, that blind men do see again, lame do walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf do hear, dead are raised, poor have good news proclaimed;
field: 42007023
42
7
23
and happy is he whoever may not be stumbled in me.'
field: 42007024
42
7
24
And the messengers of John having gone away, he began to say unto the multitudes concerning John: `What have ye gone forth to the wilderness to look on? a reed by the wind shaken?
field: 42007025
42
7
25
but what have ye gone forth to see? a man in soft garments clothed? lo, they in splendid apparellings, and living in luxury, are in the houses of kings!
field: 42007026
42
7
26
`But what have ye gone forth to see? a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet:
field: 42007027
42
7
27
this is he concerning whom it hath been written, Lo, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee;
field: 42007028
42
7
28
for I say to you, a greater prophet, among those born of women, than John the Baptist there is not; but the least in the reign of God is greater than he.'
field: 42007029
42
7
29
And all the people having heard, and the tax-gatherers, declared God righteous, having been baptized with the baptism of John,
field: 42007030
42
7
30
but the Pharisees, and the lawyers, the counsel of God did put away for themselves, not having been baptized by him.
field: 42007031
42
7
31
And the Lord said, `To what, then, shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?
field: 42007032
42
7
32
they are like to children, to those sitting in a market-place, and calling one to another, and saying, We piped to you, and ye did not dance, we mourned to you, and ye did not weep!
field: 42007033
42
7
33
`For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and ye say, He hath a demon;
field: 42007034
42
7
34
the Son of Man came eating and drinking, and ye say, Lo, a man, a glutton, and a wine drinker, a friend of tax-gatherers and sinners;
field: 42007035
42
7
35
and the wisdom was justified from all her children.'
field: 42007036
42
7
36
And a certain one of the Pharisees was asking him that he might eat with him, and having gone into the house of the Pharisee he reclined (at meat),
field: 42007037
42
7
37
and lo, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, having known that he reclineth (at meat) in the house of the Pharisee, having provided an alabaster box of ointment,
field: 42007038
42
7
38
and having stood behind, beside his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with the tears, and with the hairs of her head she was wiping, and was kissing his feet, and was anointing with the ointment.
field: 42007039
42
7
39
And the Pharisee who did call him, having seen, spake within himself, saying, `This one, if he were a prophet, would have known who and of what kind `is' the woman who doth touch him, that she is a sinner.'
field: 42007040
42
7
40
And Jesus answering said unto him, `Simon, I have something to say to thee;' and he saith, `Teacher, say on.'
field: 42007041
42
7
41
`Two debtors were to a certain creditor; the one was owing five hundred denaries, and the other fifty;
field: 42007042
42
7
42
and they not having `wherewith' to give back, he forgave both; which then of them, say thou, will love him more?'
field: 42007043
42
7
43
And Simon answering said, `I suppose that to whom he forgave the more;' and he said to him, `Rightly thou didst judge.'
field: 42007044
42
7
44
And having turned unto the woman, he said to Simon, `Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house; water for my feet thou didst not give, but this woman with tears did wet my feet, and with the hairs of her head did wipe;
field: 42007045
42
7
45
a kiss to me thou didst not give, but this woman, from what `time' I came in, did not cease kissing my feet;
field: 42007046
42
7
46
with oil my head thou didst not anoint, but this woman with ointment did anoint my feet;
field: 42007047
42
7
47
therefore I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven, because she did love much; but to whom little is forgiven, little he doth love.'
field: 42007048
42
7
48
And he said to her, `Thy sins have been forgiven;'
field: 42007049
42
7
49
and those reclining with him (at meat) began to say within themselves, `Who is this, who also doth forgive sins?'
field: 42007050
42
7
50
and he said unto the woman, `Thy faith have saved thee, be going on to peace.'
field: 42008001
42
8
1
And it came to pass thereafter, that he was going through every city and village, preaching and proclaiming good news of the reign of God, and the twelve `are' with him,
field: 42008002
42
8
2
and certain women, who were healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary who is called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone forth,
field: 42008003
42
8
3
and Joanna wife of Chuza, steward of Herod, and Susanna, and many others, who were ministering to him from their substance.
field: 42008004
42
8
4
And a great multitude having gathered, and those who from city and city were coming unto him, he spake by a simile:
field: 42008005
42
8
5
`The sower went forth to sow his seed, and in his sowing some indeed fell beside the way, and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the heaven did devour it.
field: 42008006
42
8
6
`And other fell upon the rock, and having sprung up, it did wither, through not having moisture.
field: 42008007
42
8
7
`And other fell amidst the thorns, and the thorns having sprung up with it, did choke it.
field: 42008008
42
8
8
`And other fell upon the good ground, and having sprung up, it made fruit an hundred fold.' These things saying, he was calling, `He having ears to hear -- let him hear.'
field: 42008009
42
8
9
And his disciples were questioning him, saying, `What may this simile be?'
field: 42008010
42
8
10
And he said, `To you it hath been given to know the secrets of the reign of God, and to the rest in similes; that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
field: 42008011
42
8
11
`And this is the simile: The seed is the word of God,
field: 42008012
42
8
12
and those beside the way are those hearing, then cometh the Devil, and taketh up the word from their heart, lest having believed, they may be saved.
field: 42008013
42
8
13
`And those upon the rock: They who, when they may hear, with joy do receive the word, and these have no root, who for a time believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
field: 42008014
42
8
14
`And that which fell to the thorns: These are they who have heard, and going forth, through anxieties, and riches, and pleasures of life, are choked, and bear not to completion.
field: 42008015
42
8
15
`And that in the good ground: These are they, who in an upright and good heart, having heard the word, do retain `it', and bear fruit in continuance.
field: 42008016
42
8
16
`And no one having lighted a lamp doth cover it with a vessel, or under a couch doth put `it'; but upon a lamp-stand he doth put `it', that those coming in may see the light,
field: 42008017
42
8
17
for nothing is secret, that shall not become manifest, nor hid, that shall not be known, and become manifest.
field: 42008018
42
8
18
`See, therefore, how ye hear, for whoever may have, there shall be given to him, and whoever may not have, also what he seemeth to have, shall be taken from him.'
field: 42008019
42
8
19
And there came unto him his mother and brethren, and they were not able to get to him because of the multitude,
field: 42008020
42
8
20
and it was told him, saying, `Thy mother and thy brethren do stand without, wishing to see thee;'
field: 42008021
42
8
21
and he answering said unto them, `My mother and my brethren! they are those who the word of God are hearing, and doing.'
field: 42008022
42
8
22
And it came to pass, on one of the days, that he himself went into a boat with his disciples, and he said unto them, `We may go over to the other side of the lake;' and they set forth,
field: 42008023
42
8
23
and as they are sailing he fell deeply asleep, and there came down a storm of wind to the lake, and they were filling, and were in peril.
field: 42008024
42
8
24
And having come near, they awoke him, saying, `Master, master, we perish;' and he, having arisen, rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and there came a calm,
field: 42008025
42
8
25
and he said to them, `Where is your faith?' and they being afraid did wonder, saying unto one another, `Who, then, is this, that even the winds he doth command, and the water, and they obey him?'
field: 42008026
42
8
26
And they sailed down to the region of the Gadarenes, that is over-against Galilee,
field: 42008027
42
8
27
and he having gone forth upon the land, there met him a certain man, out of the city, who had demons for a long time, and with a garment was not clothed, and in a house was not abiding, but in the tombs,
field: 42008028
42
8
28
and having seen Jesus, and having cried out, he fell before him, and with a loud voice, said, `What -- to me and to thee, Jesus, Son of God Most High? I beseech thee, mayest thou not afflict me!'
field: 42008029
42
8
29
For he commanded the unclean spirit to come forth from the man, for many times it had caught him, and he was being bound with chains and fetters -- guarded, and breaking asunder the bonds he was driven by the demons to the deserts.
field: 42008030
42
8
30
And Jesus questioned him, saying, `What is thy name?' and he said, `Legion,' (because many demons were entered into him,)
field: 42008031
42
8
31
and he was calling on him, that he may not command them to go away to the abyss,
field: 42008032
42
8
32
and there was there a herd of many swine feeding in the mountain, and they were calling on him, that he might suffer them to enter into these, and he suffered them,
field: 42008033
42
8
33
and the demons having gone forth from the man, did enter into the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep to the lake, and were choked.
field: 42008034
42
8
34
And those feeding `them', having seen what was come to pass, fled, and having gone, told `it' to the city, and to the fields;
field: 42008035
42
8
35
and they came forth to see what was come to pass, and they came unto Jesus, and found the man sitting, out of whom the demons had gone forth, clothed, and right-minded, at the feet of Jesus, and they were afraid;
field: 42008036
42
8
36
and those also having seen `it', told them how the demoniac was saved.
field: 42008037
42
8
37
And the whole multitude of the region of the Gadarenes round about asked him to go away from them, because with great fear they were pressed, and he having entered into the boat, did turn back.
field: 42008038
42
8
38
And the man from whom the demons had gone forth was beseeching of him to be with him, and Jesus sent him away, saying,
field: 42008039
42
8
39
`Turn back to thy house, and tell how great things God did to thee;' and he went away through all the city proclaiming how great things Jesus did to him.
field: 42008040
42
8
40
And it came to pass, in the turning back of Jesus, the multitude received him, for they were all looking for him,
field: 42008041
42
8
41
and lo, there came a man, whose name `is' Jairus, and he was a chief of the synagogue, and having fallen at the feet of Jesus, was calling on him to come to his house;
field: 42008042
42
8
42
because he had an only daughter about twelve years `old', and she was dying. And in his going away, the multitudes were thronging him,
field: 42008043
42
8
43
and a woman, having an issue of blood for twelve years, who, having spent on physicians all her living, was not able to be healed by any,
field: 42008044
42
8
44
having come near behind, touched the fringe of his garment, and presently the issue of her blood stood.
field: 42008045
42
8
45
And Jesus said, `Who `is' it that touched me?' and all denying, Peter and those with him said, `Master, the multitudes press thee, and throng `thee', and thou dost say, Who `is' it that touched me!'
field: 42008046
42
8
46
And Jesus said, `Some one did touch me, for I knew power having gone forth from me.'
field: 42008047
42
8
47
And the woman, having seen that she was not hid, trembling, came, and having fallen before him, for what cause she touched him declared to him before all the people, and how she was healed presently;
field: 42008048
42
8
48
and he said to her, `Take courage, daughter, thy faith hath saved thee, be going on to peace.'
field: 42008049
42
8
49
While he is yet speaking, there doth come a certain one from the chief of the synagogue's `house', saying to him -- `Thy daughter hath died, harass not the Teacher;'
field: 42008050
42
8
50
and Jesus having heard, answered him, saying, `Be not afraid, only believe, and she shall be saved.'
field: 42008051
42
8
51
And having come to the house, he suffered no one to go in, except Peter, and James, and John, and the father of the child, and the mother;
field: 42008052
42
8
52
and they were all weeping, and beating themselves for her, and he said, `Weep not, she did not die, but doth sleep;
field: 42008053
42
8
53
and they were deriding him, knowing that she did die;
field: 42008054
42
8
54
and he having put all forth without, and having taken hold of her hand, called, saying, `Child, arise;'
field: 42008055
42
8
55
and her spirit came back, and she arose presently, and he directed that there be given to her to eat;
field: 42008056
42
8
56
and her parents were amazed, but he charged them to say to no one what was come to pass.
field: 42009001
42
9
1
And having called together his twelve disciples, he gave them power and authority over all the demons, and to cure sicknesses,
field: 42009002
42
9
2
and he sent them to proclaim the reign of God, and to heal the ailing.
field: 42009003
42
9
3
And he said unto them, `Take nothing for the way, neither staff, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats each;
field: 42009004
42
9
4
and into whatever house ye may enter, there remain, and thence depart;
field: 42009005
42
9
5
and as many as may not receive you, going forth from that city, even the dust from your feet shake off, for a testimony against them.'
field: 42009006
42
9
6
And going forth they were going through the several villages, proclaiming good news, and healing everywhere.
field: 42009007
42
9
7
And Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things being done by him, and was perplexed, because it was said by certain, that John hath been raised out of the dead;
field: 42009008
42
9
8
and by certain, that Elijah did appear, and by others, that a prophet, one of the ancients, was risen;
field: 42009009
42
9
9
and Herod said, `John I did behead, but who is this concerning whom I hear such things?' and he was seeking to see him.
field: 42009010
42
9
10
And the apostles having turned back, declared to him how great things they did, and having taken them, he withdrew by himself to a desert place of a city called Bethsaida,
field: 42009011
42
9
11
and the multitudes having known did follow him, and having received them, he was speaking to them concerning the reign of God, and those having need of service he cured.
field: 42009012
42
9
12
And the day began to decline, and the twelve having come near, said to him, `Let away the multitude, that having gone to the villages and the fields round about, they may lodge and may find provision, because here we are in a desert place.'
field: 42009013
42
9
13
And he said unto them, `Give ye them to eat;' and they said, `We have no more than five loaves, and two fishes: except, having gone, we may buy for all this people victuals;'
field: 42009014
42
9
14
for they were about five thousand men. And he said unto his disciples, `Cause them to recline in companies, in each fifty;'
field: 42009015
42
9
15
and they did so, and made all to recline;
field: 42009016
42
9
16
and having taken the five loaves, and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, he blessed them, and brake, and was giving to the disciples to set before the multitude;
field: 42009017
42
9
17
and they did eat, and were all filled, and there was taken up what was over to them of broken pieces, twelve baskets.
field: 42009018
42
9
18
And it came to pass, as he is praying alone, the disciples were with him, and he questioned them, saying, `Who do the multitudes say me to be?'
field: 42009019
42
9
19
And they answering said, `John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; and others, that a prophet, one of the ancients, was risen;'
field: 42009020
42
9
20
and he said to them, `And ye -- who do ye say me to be?' and Peter answering said, `The Christ of God.'
field: 42009021
42
9
21
And having charged them, he commanded `them' to say this to no one,
field: 42009022
42
9
22
saying -- `It behoveth the Son of Man to suffer many things, and to be rejected by the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and to be killed, and the third day to be raised.'
field: 42009023
42
9
23
And he said unto all, `If any one doth will to come after me, let him disown himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me;
field: 42009024
42
9
24
for whoever may will to save his life, shall lose it, and whoever may lose his life for my sake, he shall save it;
field: 42009025
42
9
25
for what is a man profited, having gained the whole world, and having lost or having forfeited himself?
field: 42009026
42
9
26
`For whoever may be ashamed of me, and of my words, of this one shall the Son of Man be ashamed, when he may come in his glory, and the Father's, and the holy messengers';
field: 42009027
42
9
27
and I say to you, truly, there are certain of those here standing, who shall not taste of death till they may see the reign of God.'
field: 42009028
42
9
28
And it came to pass, after these words, as it were eight days, that having taken Peter, and John, and James, he went up to the mountain to pray,
field: 42009029
42
9
29
and it came to pass, in his praying, the appearance of his face became altered, and his garment white -- sparkling.
field: 42009030
42

30
And lo, two men were speaking together with him, who were Moses and Elijah,
field: 42009031
42
9
31
who having appeared in glory, spake of his outgoing that he was about to fulfil in Jerusalem,
field: 42009032
42
9
32
but Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep, and having waked, they saw his glory, and the two men standing with him.
field: 42009033
42
9
33
And it came to pass, in their parting from him, Peter said unto Jesus, `Master, it is good to us to be here; and we may make three booths, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah,' not knowing what he saith:
field: 42009034
42
9
34
and as he was speaking these things, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them, and they feared in their entering into the cloud,
field: 42009035
42
9
35
and a voice came out of the cloud saying, `This is My Son -- the Beloved; hear ye him;'
field: 42009036
42
9
36
and when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone; and they were silent, and declared to no one in those days anything of what they have seen.
field: 42009037
42
9
37
And it came to pass on the next day, they having come down from the mount, there met him a great multitude,
field: 42009038
42
9
38
and lo, a man from the multitude cried out, saying, `Teacher, I beseech thee, look upon my son, because he is my only begotten;
field: 42009039
42
9
39
and lo, a spirit doth take him, and suddenly he doth cry out, and it teareth him, with foaming, and it hardly departeth from him, bruising him,
field: 42009040
42
9
40
and I besought thy disciples that they might cast it out, and they were not able.'
field: 42009041
42
9
41
And Jesus answering said, `O generation, unstedfast and perverse, till when shall I be with you, and suffer you? bring near hither thy son;'
field: 42009042
42
9
42
and as he is yet coming near, the demon rent him, and tore `him' sore, and Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the youth, and gave him back to his father.
field: 42009043
42
9
43
And they were all amazed at the greatness of God, and while all are wondering at all things that Jesus did, he said unto his disciples,
field: 42009044
42
9
44
`Lay ye to your ears these words, for the Son of Man is about to be delivered up to the hands of men.'
field: 42009045
42
9
45
And they were not knowing this saying, and it was veiled from them, that they might not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
field: 42009046
42
9
46
And there entered a reasoning among them, this, Who may be greater of them?
field: 42009047
42
9
47
and Jesus having seen the reasoning of their heart, having taken hold of a child, set him beside himself,
field: 42009048
42
9
48
and said to them, `Whoever may receive this child in my name, doth receive me, and whoever may receive me, doth receive Him who sent me, for he who is least among you all -- he shall be great.'
field: 42009049
42
9
49
And John answering said, `Master, we saw a certain one in thy name casting forth the demons, and we forbade him, because he doth not follow with us;'
field: 42009050
42
9
50
and Jesus said unto him, `Forbid not, for he who is not against us, is for us.'
field: 42009051
42
9
51
And it came to pass, in the completing of the days of his being taken up, that he fixed his face to go on to Jerusalem,
field: 42009052
42
9
52
and he sent messengers before his face, and having gone on, they went into a village of Samaritans, to make ready for him,
field: 42009053
42
9
53
and they did not receive him, because his face was going on to Jerusalem.
field: 42009054
42
9
54
And his disciples James and John having seen, said, `Sir, wilt thou `that' we may command fire to come down from the heaven, and to consume them, as also Elijah did?'
field: 42009055
42
9
55
and having turned, he rebuked them, and said, `Ye have not known of what spirit ye are;
field: 42009056
42
9
56
for the Son of Man did not come to destroy men's lives, but to save;' and they went on to another village.
field: 42009057
42
9
57
And it came to pass, as they are going on in the way, a certain one said unto him, `I will follow thee wherever thou mayest go, sir;'
field: 42009058
42
9
58
and Jesus said to him, `The foxes have holes, and the fowls of the heaven places of rest, but the Son of Man hath not where he may recline the head.'
field: 42009059
42
9
59
And he said unto another, `Be following me;' and he said, `Sir, permit me, having gone away, first to bury my father;'
field: 42009060
42
9
60
and Jesus said to him, `Suffer the dead to bury their own dead, and thou, having gone away, publish the reign of God.'
field: 42009061
42
9
61
And another also said, `I will follow thee, sir, but first permit me to take leave of those in my house;'
field: 42009062
42
9
62
and Jesus said unto him, `No one having put his hand on a plough, and looking back, is fit for the reign of God.'
field: 42010001
42
10
1
And after these things, the Lord did appoint also other seventy, and sent them by twos before his face, to every city and place whither he himself was about to come,
field: 42010002
42
10
2
then said he unto them, `The harvest indeed `is' abundant, but the workmen few; beseech ye then the Lord of the harvest, that He may put forth workmen to His harvest.
field: 42010003
42
10
3
`Go away; lo, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves;
field: 42010004
42
10
4
carry no bag, no scrip, nor sandals; and salute no one on the way;
field: 42010005
42
10
5
and into whatever house ye do enter, first say, Peace to this house;
field: 42010006
42
10
6
and if indeed there may be there the son of peace, rest on it shall your peace; and if not so, upon you it shall turn back.
field: 42010007
42
10
7
`And in that house remain, eating and drinking the things they have, for worthy `is' the workman of his hire; go not from house to house,
field: 42010008
42
10
8
and into whatever city ye enter, and they may receive you, eat the things set before you,
field: 42010009
42
10
9
and heal the ailing in it, and say to them, The reign of God hath come nigh to you.
field: 42010010
42
10
10
`And into whatever city ye do enter, and they may not receive you, having gone forth to its broad places, say,
field: 42010011
42
10
11
And the dust that hath cleaved to us, from your city, we do wipe off against you, but this know ye, that the reign of God hath come nigh to you;
field: 42010012
42
10
12
and I say to you, that for Sodom in that day it shall be more tolerable than for that city.
field: 42010013
42
10
13
`Wo to thee, Chorazin; wo to thee, Bethsaida; for if in Tyre and Sidon had been done the mighty works that were done in you, long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes, they had reformed;
field: 42010014
42
10
14
but for Tyre and Sidon it shall be more tolerable in the judgment than for you.
field: 42010015
42
10
15
`And thou, Capernaum, which unto the heaven wast exalted, unto hades thou shalt be brought down.
field: 42010016
42
10
16
`He who is hearing you, doth hear me; and he who is putting you away, doth put me away; and he who is putting me away, doth put away Him who sent me.'
field: 42010017
42
10
17
And the seventy turned back with joy, saying, `Sir, and the demons are being subjected to us in thy name;'
field: 42010018
42
10
18
and he said to them, `I was beholding the Adversary, as lightning from the heaven having fallen;
field: 42010019
42
10
19
lo, I give to you the authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and on all the power of the enemy, and nothing by any means shall hurt you;
field: 42010020
42
10
20
but, in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subjected to you, but rejoice rather that your names were written in the heavens.'
field: 42010021
42
10
21
In that hour was Jesus glad in the Spirit, and said, `I do confess to thee, Father, Lord of the heaven and of the earth, that Thou didst hide these things from wise men and understanding, and didst reveal them to babes; yes, Father, because so it became good pleasure before Thee.
field: 42010022
42
10
22
`All things were delivered up to me by my Father, and no one doth know who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whom the Son may wish to reveal `Him'.'
field: 42010023
42
10
23
And having turned unto the disciples, he said, by themselves, `Happy the eyes that are perceiving what ye perceive;
field: 42010024
42
10
24
for I say to you, that many prophets and kings did wish to see what ye perceive, and did not see, and to hear what ye hear, and did not hear.'
field: 42010025
42
10
25
And lo, a certain lawyer stood up, trying him, and saying, `Teacher, what having done, life age-during shall I inherit?'
field: 42010026
42
10
26
And he said unto him, `In the law what hath been written? how dost thou read?'
field: 42010027
42
10
27
And he answering said, `Thou shalt love the Lord thy God out of all thy heart, and out of all thy soul, and out of all thy strength, and out of all thy understanding, and thy neighbour as thyself.'
field: 42010028
42
10
28
And he said to him, `Rightly thou didst answer; this do, and thou shalt live.'
field: 42010029
42
10
29
And he, willing to declare himself righteous, said unto Jesus, `And who is my neighbour?'
field: 42010030
42
10
30
and Jesus having taken up `the word', said, `A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, and having stripped him and inflicted blows, they went away, leaving `him' half dead.
field: 42010031
42
10
31
`And by a coincidence a certain priest was going down in that way, and having seen him, he passed over on the opposite side;
field: 42010032
42
10
32
and in like manner also, a Levite, having been about the place, having come and seen, passed over on the opposite side.
field: 42010033
42
10
33
`But a certain Samaritan, journeying, came along him, and having seen him, he was moved with compassion,
field: 42010034
42
10
34
and having come near, he bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine, and having lifted him up on his own beast, he brought him to an inn, and was careful of him;
field: 42010035
42
10
35
and on the morrow, going forth, taking out two denaries, he gave to the innkeeper, and said to him, Be careful of him, and whatever thou mayest spend more, I, in my coming again, will give back to thee.
field: 42010036
42
10
36
`Who, then, of these three, seemeth to thee to have become neighbour of him who fell among the robbers?'
field: 42010037
42
10
37
and he said, `He who did the kindness with him,' then Jesus said to him, `Be going on, and thou be doing in like manner.'
field: 42010038
42
10
38
And it came to pass, in their going on, that he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman, by name Martha, did receive him into her house,
field: 42010039
42
10
39
and she had also a sister, called Mary, who also, having seated herself beside the feet of Jesus, was hearing the word,
field: 42010040
42
10
40
and Martha was distracted about much serving, and having stood by him, she said, `Sir, dost thou not care that my sister left me alone to serve? say then to her, that she may partake along with me.'
field: 42010041
42
10
41
And Jesus answering said to her, `Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and disquieted about many things,
field: 42010042
42
10
42
but of one thing there is need, and Mary the good part did choose, that shall not be taken away from her.'
field: 42011001
42
11
1
And it came to pass, in his being in a certain place praying, as he ceased, a certain one of his disciples said unto him, `Sir, teach us to pray, as also John taught his disciples.'
field: 42011002
42
11
2
And he said to them, `When ye may pray, say ye: Our Father who art in the heavens; hallowed be Thy name: Thy reign come; Thy will come to pass, as in heaven also on earth;
field: 42011003
42
11
3
our appointed bread be giving us daily;
field: 42011004
42
11
4
and forgive us our sins, for also we ourselves forgive every one indebted to us; and mayest Thou not bring us into temptation; but do Thou deliver us from the evil.'
field: 42011005
42
11
5
And he said unto them, `Who of you shall have a friend, and shall go on unto him at midnight, and may say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves,
field: 42011006
42
11
6
seeing a friend of mine came out of the way unto me, and I have not what I shall set before him,
field: 42011007
42
11
7
and he from within answering may say, Do not give me trouble, already the door hath been shut, and my children with me are in the bed, I am not able, having risen, to give to thee.
field: 42011008
42
11
8
`I say to you, even if he will not give to him, having risen, because of his being his friend, yet because of his importunity, having risen, he will give him as many as he doth need;
field: 42011009
42
11
9
and I say to you, Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you;
field: 42011010
42
11
10
for every one who is asking doth receive; and he who is seeking doth find; and to him who is knocking it shall be opened.
field: 42011011
42
11
11
`And of which of you -- the father -- if the son shall ask a loaf, a stone will he present to him? and if a fish, will he instead of a fish, a serpent present to him?
field: 42011012
42
11
12
and if he may ask an egg, will he present to him a scorpion?
field: 42011013
42
11
13
If, then, ye, being evil, have known good gifts to be giving to your children, how much more shall the Father who is from heaven give the Holy Spirit to those asking Him!'
field: 42011014
42
11
14
And he was casting forth a demon, and it was dumb, and it came to pass, the demon having gone forth, the dumb man spake, and the multitudes wondered,
field: 42011015
42
11
15
and certain of them said, `By Beelzeboul, ruler of the demons, he doth cast forth the demons;'
field: 42011016
42
11
16
and others, tempting, a sign out of heaven from him were asking.
field: 42011017
42
11
17
And he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, `Every kingdom having been divided against itself is desolated; and house against house doth fall;
field: 42011018
42
11
18
and if also the Adversary against himself was divided, how shall his kingdom be made to stand? for ye say, by Beelzeboul is my casting forth the demons.
field: 42011019
42
11
19
`But if I by Beelzeboul cast forth the demons -- your sons, by whom do they cast forth? because of this your judges they shall be;
field: 42011020
42
11
20
but if by the finger of God I cast forth the demons, then come unawares upon you did the reign of God.
field: 42011021
42
11
21
`When the strong man armed may keep his hall, in peace are his goods;
field: 42011022
42
11
22
but when the stronger than he, having come upon `him', may overcome him, his whole-armour he doth take away in which he had trusted, and his spoils he distributeth;
field: 42011023
42
11
23
he who is not with me is against me, and he who is not gathering with me doth scatter.
field: 42011024
42
11
24
`When the unclean spirit may go forth from the man it walketh through waterless places seeking rest, and not finding, it saith, I will turn back to my house whence I came forth;
field: 42011025
42
11
25
and having come, it findeth `it' swept and adorned;
field: 42011026
42
11
26
then doth it go, and take to it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and having entered, they dwell there, and the last of that man becometh worst than the first.'
field: 42011027
42
11
27
And it came to pass, in his saying these things, a certain woman having lifted up the voice out of the multitude, said to him, `Happy the womb that carried thee, and the paps that thou didst suck!'
field: 42011028
42
11
28
And he said, `Yea, rather, happy those hearing the word of God, and keeping `it'!'
field: 42011029
42
11
29
And the multitudes crowding together upon him, he began to say, `This generation is evil, a sign it doth seek after, and a sign shall not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet,
field: 42011030
42
11
30
for as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also shall the Son of Man be to this generation.
field: 42011031
42
11
31
`A queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and shall condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and lo, greater than Solomon here!
field: 42011032
42
11
32
`Men of Nineveh shall stand up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it, because they reformed at the proclamation of Jonah; and lo, greater than Jonah here!
field: 42011033
42
11
33
`And no one having lighted a lamp, doth put `it' in a secret place, nor under the measure, but on the lamp-stand, that those coming in may behold the light.
field: 42011034
42
11
34
`The lamp of the body is the eye, when then thine eye may be simple, thy whole body also is lightened; and when it may be evil, thy body also is darkened;
field: 42011035
42
11
35
take heed, then, lest the light that `is' in thee be darkness;
field: 42011036
42
11
36
if then thy whole body is lightened, not having any part darkened, the whole shall be lightened, as when the lamp by the brightness may give thee light.'
field: 42011037
42
11
37
And in `his' speaking, a certain Pharisee was asking him that he might dine with him, and having gone in, he reclined (at meat),
field: 42011038
42
11
38
and the Pharisee having seen, did wonder that he did not first baptize himself before the dinner.
field: 42011039
42
11
39
And the Lord said unto him, `Now do ye, the Pharisees, the outside of the cup and of the plate make clean, but your inward part is full of rapine and wickedness;
field: 42011040
42
11
40
unthinking! did not He who made the outside also the inside make?
field: 42011041
42
11
41
But what ye have give ye `as' alms, and, lo, all things are clean to you.
field: 42011042
42
11
42
`But wo to you, the Pharisees, because ye tithe the mint, and the rue, and every herb, and ye pass by the judgment, and the love of God; these things it behoveth to do, and those not to be neglecting.
field: 42011043
42
11
43
`Wo to you, the Pharisees, because ye love the first seats in the synagogues, and the salutations in the market-places.
field: 42011044
42
11
44
`Wo to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because ye are as the unseen tombs, and the men walking above have not known.'
field: 42011045
42
11
45
And one of the lawyers answering, saith to him, `Teacher, these things saying, us also thou dost insult;'
field: 42011046
42
11
46
and he said, `And to you, the lawyers, wo! because ye burden men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves with one of your fingers do not touch the burdens.
field: 42011047
42
11
47
`Wo to you, because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
field: 42011048
42
11
48
Then do ye testify, and are well pleased with the works of your fathers, because they indeed killed them, and ye do build their tombs;
field: 42011049
42
11
49
because of this also the wisdom of God said: I will send to them prophets, and apostles, and some of them they shall kill and persecute,
field: 42011050
42
11
50
that the blood of all the prophets, that is being poured forth from the foundation of the world, may be required from this generation;
field: 42011051
42
11
51
from the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias, who perished between the altar and the house; yes, I say to you, It shall be required from this generation.
field: 42011052
42
11
52
`Wo to you, the lawyers, because ye took away the key of the knowledge; yourselves ye did not enter; and those coming in, ye did hinder.'
field: 42011053
42
11
53
And in his speaking these things unto them, the scribes and the Pharisees began fearfully to urge and to press him to speak about many things,
field: 42011054
42
11
54
laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.
field: 42012001
42
12
1
At which time the myriads of the multitude having been gathered together, so as to tread upon one another, he began to say unto his disciples, first, `Take heed to yourselves of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy;
field: 42012002
42
12
2
and there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known;
field: 42012003
42
12
3
because whatever in the darkness ye said, in the light shall be heard: and what to the ear ye spake in the inner-chambers, shall be proclaimed upon the house-tops.
field: 42012004
42
12
4
`And I say to you, my friends, be not afraid of those killing the body, and after these things are not having anything over to do;
field: 42012005
42
12
5
but I will show to you, whom ye may fear; Fear him who, after the killing, is having authority to cast to the gehenna; yes, I say to you, Fear ye Him.

`Are not five sparrows sold for two assars? and one of them is not forgotten before God,
field: 42012007
42
12
7
but even the hairs of your head have been all numbered; therefore fear ye not, than many sparrows ye are of more value.
field: 42012008
42
12

`And I say to you, Every one -- whoever may confess with me before men, the Son of Man also shall confess with him before the messengers of God,
field: 42012009
42
12
9
and he who hath denied me before men, shall be denied before the messengers of God,
field: 42012010
42
12
10
and every one whoever shall say a word to the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven to him, but to him who to the Holy Spirit did speak evil, it shall not be forgiven.
field: 42012011
42
12
11
`And when they bring you before the synagogues, and the rulers, and the authorities, be not anxious how or what ye may reply, or what ye may say,
field: 42012012
42
12
12
for the Holy Spirit shall teach you in that hour what it behoveth `you' to say.'
field: 42012013
42
12
13
And a certain one said to him, out of the multitude, `Teacher, say to my brother to divide with me the inheritance.'
field: 42012014
42
12
14
And he said to him, `Man, who set me a judge or a divider over you?'
field: 42012015
42
12
15
And he said unto them, `Observe, and beware of the covetousness, because not in the abundance of one's goods is his life.'
field: 42012016
42
12
16
And he spake a simile unto them, saying, `Of a certain rich man the field brought forth well;
field: 42012017
42
12
17
and he was reasoning within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have not where I shall gather together my fruits?
field: 42012018
42
12
18
and he said, This I will do, I will take down my storehouses, and greater ones I will build, and I will gather together there all my products and my good things,
field: 42012019
42
12
19
and I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast many good things laid up for many years, be resting, eat, drink, be merry.
field: 42012020
42
12
20
`And God said to him, Unthinking one! this night thy soul they shall require from thee, and what things thou didst prepare -- to whom shall they be?
field: 42012021
42
12
21
so `is' he who is treasuring up to himself, and is not rich toward God.'
field: 42012022
42
12
22
And he said unto his disciples, `Because of this, to you I say, Be not anxious for your life, what ye may eat; nor for the body, what ye may put on;
field: 42012023
42
12
23
the life is more than the nourishment, and the body than the clothing.
field: 42012024
42
12
24
`Consider the ravens, that they sow not, nor reap, to which there is no barn nor storehouse, and God doth nourish them; how much better are ye than the fowls?
field: 42012025
42
12
25
and who of you, being anxious, is able to add to his age one cubit?
field: 42012026
42
12
26
If, then, ye are not able for the least -- why for the rest are ye anxious?
field: 42012027
42
12
27
`Consider the lilies, how do they grow? they labour not, nor do they spin, and I say to you, not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed as one of these;
field: 42012028
42
12
28
and if the herbage in the field, that to-day is, and to-morrow into an oven is cast, God doth so clothe, how much more you -- ye of little faith?
field: 42012029
42
12
29
`And ye -- seek not what ye may eat, or what ye may drink, and be not in suspense,
field: 42012030
42
12
30
for all these things do the nations of the world seek after, and your Father hath known that ye have need of these things;
field: 42012031
42
12
31
but, seek ye the reign of God, and all these things shall be added to you.
field: 42012032
42
12
32
`Fear not, little flock, because your Father did delight to give you the reign;
field: 42012033
42
12
33
sell your goods, and give alms, make to yourselves bags that become not old, a treasure unfailing in the heavens, where thief doth not come near, nor moth destroy;
field: 42012034
42
12
34
for where your treasure is, there also your heart will be.
field: 42012035
42
12
35
`Let your loins be girded, and the lamps burning,
field: 42012036
42
12
36
and ye like to men waiting for their lord, when he shall return out of the wedding feasts, that he having come and knocked, immediately they may open to him.
field: 42012037
42
12
37
`Happy those servants, whom the lord, having come, shall find watching; verily I say to you, that he will gird himself, and will cause them to recline (at meat), and having come near, will minister to them;
field: 42012038
42
12
38
and if he may come in the second watch, and in the third watch he may come, and may find `it' so, happy are those servants.
field: 42012039
42
12
39
`And this know, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief doth come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken through;
field: 42012040
42
12
40
and ye, then, become ye ready, because at the hour ye think not, the Son of Man doth come.'
field: 42012041
42
12
41
And Peter said to him, `Sir, unto us this simile dost thou speak, or also unto all?'
field: 42012042
42
12
42
And the Lord said, `Who, then, is the faithful and prudent steward whom the lord shall set over his household, to give in season the wheat measure?
field: 42012043
42
12
43
Happy that servant, whom his lord, having come, shall find doing so;
field: 42012044
42
12
44
truly I say to you, that over all his goods he will set him.
field: 42012045
42
12
45
`And if that servant may say in his heart, My lord doth delay to come, and may begin to beat the men-servants and the maid-servants, to eat also, and to drink, and to be drunken;
field: 42012046
42
12
46
the lord of that servant will come in a day in which he doth not look for `him', and in an hour that he doth not know, and will cut him off, and his portion with the unfaithful he will appoint.
field: 42012047
42
12
47
`And that servant, who having known his lord's will, and not having prepared, nor having gone according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes,
field: 42012048
42
12
48
and he who, not having known, and having done things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few; and to every one to whom much was given, much shall be required from him; and to whom they did commit much, more abundantly they will ask of him.
field: 42012049
42
12
49
`Fire I came to cast to the earth, and what will I if already it was kindled?
field: 42012050
42
12
50
but I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how am I pressed till it may be completed!
field: 42012051
42
12
51
`Think ye that peace I came to give in the earth? no, I say to you, but rather division;
field: 42012052
42
12
52
for there shall be henceforth five in one house divided -- three against two, and two against three;
field: 42012053
42
12
53
a father shall be divided against a son, and a son against a father, a mother against a daughter, and a daughter against a mother, a mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.'
field: 42012054
42
12
54
And he said also to the multitudes, `When ye may see the cloud rising from the west, immediately ye say, A shower doth come, and it is so;
field: 42012055
42
12
55
and when -- a south wind blowing, ye say, that there will be heat, and it is;
field: 42012056
42
12
56
hypocrites! the face of the earth and of the heaven ye have known to make proof of, but this time -- how do ye not make proof of `it'?
field: 42012057
42
12
57
`And why, also, of yourselves, judge ye not what is righteous?
field: 42012058
42
12
58
for, as thou art going away with thy opponent to the ruler, in the way give diligence to be released from him, lest he may drag thee unto the judge, and the judge may deliver thee to the officer, and the officer may cast thee into prison;
field: 42012059
42
12
59
I say to thee, thou mayest not come forth thence till even the last mite thou mayest give back.'
field: 42013001
42
13
1
And there were present certain at that time, telling him about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate did mingle with their sacrifices;
field: 42013002
42
13
2
and Jesus answering said to them, `Think ye that these Galileans became sinners beyond all the Galileans, because they have suffered such things?
field: 42013003
42
13
3
No -- I say to you, but, if ye may not reform, all ye even so shall perish.
field: 42013004
42
13
4
`Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them; think ye that these became debtors beyond all men who are dwelling in Jerusalem?
field: 42013005
42
13
5
No -- I say to you, but, if ye may not reform, all ye in like manner shall perish.'
field: 42013006
42
13
6
And he spake this simile: `A certain one had a fig-tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit in it, and he did not find;
field: 42013007
42
13
7
and he said unto the vine-dresser, Lo, three years I come seeking fruit in this fig-tree, and do not find, cut it off, why also the ground doth it render useless?
field: 42013008
42
13
8
`And he answering saith to him, Sir, suffer it also this year, till that I may dig about it, and cast in dung;
field: 42013009
42
13
9
and if indeed it may bear fruit --; and if not so, thereafter thou shalt cut it off.'
field: 42013010
42
13
10
And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath,
field: 42013011
42
13
11
and lo, there was a woman having a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bowed together, and not able to bend back at all,
field: 42013012
42
13
12
and Jesus having seen her, did call `her' near, and said to her, `Woman, thou hast been loosed from thy infirmity;'
field: 42013013
42
13
13
and he laid on her `his' hands, and presently she was set upright, and was glorifying God.
field: 42013014
42
13
14
And the chief of the synagogue answering -- much displeased that on the sabbath Jesus healed -- said to the multitude, `Six days there are in which it behoveth `us' to be working; in these, then, coming, be healed, and not on the sabbath-day.'
field: 42013015
42
13
15
Then the Lord answered him and said, `Hypocrite, doth not each of you on the sabbath loose his ox or ass from the stall, and having led away, doth water `it'?
field: 42013016
42
13
16
and this one, being a daughter of Abraham, whom the Adversary bound, lo, eighteen years, did it not behove to be loosed from this bond on the sabbath-day?'
field: 42013017
42
13
17
And he saying these things, all who were opposed to him were being ashamed, and all the multitude were rejoicing over all the glorious things that are being done by him.
field: 42013018
42
13
18
And he said, `To what is the reign of God like? and to what shall I liken it?
field: 42013019
42
13
19
It is like to a grain of mustard, which a man having taken, did cast into his garden, and it increased, and came to a great tree, and the fowls of the heavens did rest in its branches.'
field: 42013020
42
13
20
And again he said, `To what shall I liken the reign of God?
field: 42013021
42
13
21
It is like leaven, which a woman, having taken, did hide in three measures of meal, till that all was leavened.'
field: 42013022
42
13
22
And he was going through cities and villages, teaching, and making progress toward Jerusalem;
field: 42013023
42
13
23
and a certain one said to him, `Sir, are those saved few?' and he said unto them,
field: 42013024
42
13
24
`Be striving to go in through the straight gate, because many, I say to you, will seek to go in, and shall not be able;
field: 42013025
42
13
25
from the time the master of the house may have risen up, and may have shut the door, and ye may begin without to stand, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, lord, open to us, and he answering shall say to you, I have not known you whence ye are,
field: 42013026
42
13
26
then ye may begin to say, We did eat before thee, and did drink, and in our broad places thou didst teach;
field: 42013027
42
13
27
and he shall say, I say to you, I have not known you whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of the unrighteousness.
field: 42013028
42
13
28
`There shall be there the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth, when ye may see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the reign of God, and yourselves being cast out without;
field: 42013029
42
13
29
and they shall come from east and west, and from north and south, and shall recline in the reign of God,
field: 42013030
42
13
30
and lo, there are last who shall be first, and there are first who shall be last.'
field: 42013031
42
13
31
On that day there came near certain Pharisees, saying to him, `Go forth, and be going on hence, for Herod doth wish to kill thee;'
field: 42013032
42
13
32
and he said to them, `Having gone, say to this fox, Lo, I cast forth demons, and perfect cures to-day and to-morrow, and the third `day' I am being perfected;
field: 42013033
42
13
33
but it behoveth me to-day, and to-morrow, and the `day' following, to go on, because it is not possible for a prophet to perish out of Jerusalem.
field: 42013034
42
13
34
`Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that is killing the prophets, and stoning those sent unto her, how often did I will to gather together thy children, as a hen her brood under the wings, and ye did not will.
field: 42013035
42
13
35
`Lo, your house is being left to you desolate, and verily I say to you -- ye may not see me, till it may come, when ye may say, Blessed `is' he who is coming in the name of the Lord.'
field: 42014001
42
14
1
And it came to pass, on his going into the house of a certain one of the chiefs of the Pharisees, on a sabbath, to eat bread, that they were watching him,
field: 42014002
42
14
2
and lo, there was a certain dropsical man before him;
field: 42014003
42
14
3
and Jesus answering spake to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, `Is it lawful on the sabbath-day to heal?'
field: 42014004
42
14
4
and they were silent, and having taken hold of `him', he healed him, and let `him' go;
field: 42014005
42
14
5
and answering them he said, `Of which of you shall an ass or ox fall into a pit, and he will not immediately draw it up on the sabbath-day?'
field: 42014006
42
14
6
and they were not able to answer him again unto these things.
field: 42014007
42
14
7
And he spake a simile unto those called, marking how they were choosing out the first couches, saying unto them,
field: 42014008
42
14
8
`When thou mayest be called by any one to marriage-feasts, thou mayest not recline on the first couch, lest a more honourable than thou may have been called by him,
field: 42014009
42
14
9
and he who did call thee and him having come shall say to thee, Give to this one place, and then thou mayest begin with shame to occupy the last place.
field: 42014010
42
14
10
`But, when thou mayest be called, having gone on, recline in the last place, that when he who called thee may come, he may say to thee, Friend, come up higher; then thou shalt have glory before those reclining with thee;
field: 42014011
42
14
11
because every one who is exalting himself shall be humbled, and he who is humbling himself shall be exalted.'
field: 42014012
42
14
12
And he said also to him who did call him, `When thou mayest make a dinner or a supper, be not calling thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor thy kindred, nor rich neighbours, lest they may also call thee again, and a recompense may come to thee;
field: 42014013
42
14
13
but when thou mayest make a feast, be calling poor, maimed, lame, blind,
field: 42014014
42
14
14
and happy thou shalt be, because they have not to recompense thee, for it shall be recompensed to thee in the rising again of the righteous.'
field: 42014015
42
14
15
And one of those reclining with him, having heard these things, said to him, `Happy `is' he who shall eat bread in the reign of God;'
field: 42014016
42
14
16
and he said to him, `A certain man made a great supper, and called many,
field: 42014017
42
14
17
and he sent his servant at the hour of the supper to say to those having been called, Be coming, because now are all things ready.
field: 42014018
42
14
18
`And they began with one consent all to excuse themselves: The first said to him, A field I bought, and I have need to go forth and see it; I beg of thee, have me excused.
field: 42014019
42
14
19
`And another said, Five yoke of oxen I bought, and I go on to prove them; I beg of thee, have me excused:
field: 42014020
42
14
20
and another said, A wife I married, and because of this I am not able to come.
field: 42014021
42
14
21
`And that servant having come, told to his lord these things, then the master of the house, having been angry, said to his servant, Go forth quickly to the broad places and lanes of the city, and the poor, and maimed, and lame, and blind, bring in hither.
field: 42014022
42
14
22
`And the servant said, Sir, it hath been done as thou didst command, and still there is room.
field: 42014023
42
14
23
`And the lord said unto the servant, Go forth to the ways and hedges, and constrain to come in, that my house may be filled;
field: 42014024
42
14
24
for I say to you, that none of those men who have been called shall taste of my supper.'
field: 42014025
42
14
25
And there were going on with him great multitudes, and having turned, he said unto them,
field: 42014026
42
14
26
`If any one doth come unto me, and doth not hate his own father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers, and sisters, and yet even his own life, he is not able to be my disciple;
field: 42014027
42
14
27
and whoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, is not able to be my disciple.
field: 42014028
42
14
28
`For who of you, willing to build a tower, doth not first, having sat down, count the expense, whether he have the things for completing?
field: 42014029
42
14
29
lest that he having laid a foundation, and not being able to finish, all who are beholding may begin to mock him,
field: 42014030
42
14
30
saying -- This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
field: 42014031
42
14
31
`Or what king going on to engage with another king in war, doth not, having sat down, first consult if he be able with ten thousand to meet him who with twenty thousand is coming against him?
field: 42014032
42
14
32
and if not so -- he being yet a long way off -- having sent an embassy, he doth ask the things for peace.
field: 42014033
42
14
33
`So, then, every one of you who doth not take leave of all that he himself hath, is not able to be my disciple.
field: 42014034
42
14
34
`The salt `is' good, but if the salt doth become tasteless, with what shall it be seasoned?
field: 42014035
42
14
35
neither for land nor for manure is it fit -- they cast it without. He who is having ears to hear -- let him hear.'
field: 42015001
42
15
1
And all the tax-gatherers and the sinners were coming nigh to him, to hear him,
field: 42015002
42
15
2
and the Pharisees and the scribes were murmuring, saying -- This one doth receive sinners, and doth eat with them.'
field: 42015003
42
15
3
And he spake unto them this simile, saying,
field: 42015004
42
15
4
`What man of you having a hundred sheep, and having lost one out of them, doth not leave behind the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go on after the lost one, till he may find it?
field: 42015005
42
15
5
and having found, he doth lay `it' on his shoulders rejoicing,
field: 42015006
42
15
6
and having come to the house, he doth call together the friends and the neighbours, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I found my sheep -- the lost one.
field: 42015007
42
15
7
`I say to you, that so joy shall be in the heaven over one sinner reforming, rather than over ninety-nine righteous men, who have no need of reformation.
field: 42015008
42
15
8
`Or what woman having ten drachms, if she may lose one drachm, doth not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek carefully till that she may find?
field: 42015009
42
15
9
and having found, she doth call together the female friends and the neighbours, saying, Rejoice with me, for I found the drachm that I lost.
field: 42015010
42
15
10
`So I say to you, joy doth come before the messengers of God over one sinner reforming.'
field: 42015011
42
15
11
And he said, `A certain man had two sons,
field: 42015012
42
15
12
and the younger of them said to the father, Father, give me the portion of the substance falling to `me', and he divided to them the living.
field: 42015013
42
15
13
`And not many days after, having gathered all together, the younger son went abroad to a far country, and there he scattered his substance, living riotously;
field: 42015014
42
15
14
and he having spent all, there came a mighty famine on that country, and himself began to be in want;
field: 42015015
42
15
15
and having gone on, he joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him to the fields to feed swine,
field: 42015016
42
15
16
and he was desirous to fill his belly from the husks that the swine were eating, and no one was giving to him.
field: 42015017
42
15
17
`And having come to himself, he said, How many hirelings of my father have a superabundance of bread, and I here with hunger am perishing!
field: 42015018
42
15
18
having risen, I will go on unto my father, and will say to him, Father, I did sin -- to the heaven, and before thee,
field: 42015019
42
15
19
and no more am I worthy to be called thy son; make me as one of thy hirelings.
field: 42015020
42
15
20
`And having risen, he went unto his own father, and he being yet far distant, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and having ran he fell upon his neck and kissed him;
field: 42015021
42
15
21
and the son said to him, Father, I did sin -- to the heaven, and before thee, and no more am I worthy to be called thy son.
field: 42015022
42
15
22
`And the father said unto his servants, Bring forth the first robe, and clothe him, and give a ring for his hand, and sandals for the feet;
field: 42015023
42
15
23
and having brought the fatted calf, kill `it', and having eaten, we may be merry,
field: 42015024
42
15
24
because this my son was dead, and did live again, and he was lost, and was found; and they began to be merry.
field: 42015025
42
15
25
`And his elder son was in a field, and as, coming, he drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing,
field: 42015026
42
15
26
and having called near one of the young men, he was inquiring what these things might be,
field: 42015027
42
15
27
and he said to him -- Thy brother is arrived, and thy father did kill the fatted calf, because in health he did receive him back.
field: 42015028
42
15
28
`And he was angry, and would not go in, therefore his father, having come forth, was entreating him;
field: 42015029
42
15
29
and he answering said to the father, Lo, so many years I do serve thee, and never thy command did I transgress, and to me thou didst never give a kid, that with my friends I might make merry;
field: 42015030
42
15
30
but when thy son -- this one who did devour thy living with harlots -- came, thou didst kill to him the fatted calf.
field: 42015031
42
15
31
`And he said to him, Child, thou art always with me, and all my things are thine;
field: 42015032
42
15
32
but to be merry, and to be glad, it was needful, because this thy brother was dead, and did live again, he was lost, and was found.'
field: 42016001
42
16
1
And he said also unto his disciples, `A certain man was rich, who had a steward, and he was accused to him as scattering his goods;
field: 42016002
42
16
2
and having called him, he said to him, What `is' this I hear about thee? render the account of thy stewardship, for thou mayest not any longer be steward.
field: 42016003
42
16
3
`And the steward said in himself, What shall I do, because my lord doth take away the stewardship from me? to dig I am not able, to beg I am ashamed: --
field: 42016004
42
16
4
I have known what I shall do, that, when I may be removed from the stewardship, they may receive me to their houses.
field: 42016005
42
16
5
`And having called near each one of his lord's debtors, he said to the first, How much dost thou owe to my lord?
field: 42016006
42
16
6
and he said, A hundred baths of oil; and he said to him, Take thy bill, and having sat down write fifty.
field: 42016007
42
16
7
`Afterward to another he said, And thou, how much dost thou owe? and he said, A hundred cors of wheat; and he saith to him, Take thy bill, and write eighty.
field: 42016008
42
16
8
`And the lord commended the unrighteous steward that he did prudently, because the sons of this age are more prudent than the sons of the light, in respect to their generation.
field: 42016009
42
16
9
and I say to you, Make to yourselves friends out of the mammon of unrighteousness, that when ye may fail, they may receive you to the age-during tabernacles.
field: 42016010
42
16
10
`He who is faithful in the least, `is' also faithful in much; and he who in the least `is' unrighteous, is also unrighteous in much;
field: 42016011
42
16
11
if, then, in the unrighteous mammon ye became not faithful -- the true who will entrust to you?
field: 42016012
42
16
12
and if in the other's ye became not faithful -- your own, who shall give to you?
field: 42016013
42
16
13
`No domestic is able to serve two lords, for either the one he will hate, and the other he will love; or one he will hold to, and of the other he will be heedless; ye are not able to serve God and mammon.'
field: 42016014
42
16
14
And also the Pharisees, being lovers of money, were hearing all these things, and were deriding him,
field: 42016015
42
16
15
and he said to them, `Ye are those declaring yourselves righteous before men, but God doth know your hearts; because that which among men is high, `is' abomination before God;
field: 42016016
42
16
16
the law and the prophets `are' till John; since then the reign of God is proclaimed good news, and every one doth press into it;
field: 42016017
42
16
17
and it is easier to the heaven and the earth to pass away, than of the law one tittle to fall.
field: 42016018
42
16
18
`Every one who is sending away his wife, and marrying another, doth commit adultery; and every one who is marrying her sent away from a husband doth commit adultery.
field: 42016019
42
16
19
`And -- a certain man was rich, and was clothed in purple and fine linen, making merry sumptuously every day,
field: 42016020
42
16
20
and there was a certain poor man, by name Lazarus, who was laid at his porch, full of sores,
field: 42016021
42
16
21
and desiring to be filled from the crumbs that are falling from the table of the rich man; yea, also the dogs, coming, were licking his sores.
field: 42016022
42
16
22
`And it came to pass, that the poor man died, and that he was carried away by the messengers to the bosom of Abraham -- and the rich man also died, and was buried;
field: 42016023
42
16
23
and in the hades having lifted up his eyes, being in torments, he doth see Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom,
field: 42016024
42
16
24
and having cried, he said, Father Abraham, deal kindly with me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and may cool my tongue, because I am distressed in this flame.
field: 42016025
42
16
25
`And Abraham said, Child, remember that thou did receive -- thou -- thy good things in thy life, and Lazarus in like manner the evil things, and now he is comforted, and thou art distressed;
field: 42016026
42
16
26
and besides all these things, between us and you a great chasm is fixed, so that they who are willing to go over from hence unto you are not able, nor do they from thence to us pass through.
field: 42016027
42
16
27
`And he said, I pray thee, then, father, that thou mayest send him to the house of my father,
field: 42016028
42
16
28
for I have five brothers, so that he may thoroughly testify to them, that they also may not come to this place of torment.
field: 42016029
42
16
29
`Abraham saith to him, They have Moses and the prophets, let them hear them;
field: 42016030
42
16
30
and he said, No, father Abraham, but if any one from the dead may go unto them, they will reform.
field: 42016031
42
16
31
And he said to him, If Moses and the prophets they do not hear, neither if one may rise out of the dead will they be persuaded.'
field: 42017001
42
17
1
And he said unto the disciples, `It is impossible for the stumbling blocks not to come, but wo `to him' through whom they come;
field: 42017002
42
17
2
it is more profitable to him if a weighty millstone is put round about his neck, and he hath been cast into the sea, than that he may cause one of these little ones to stumble.
field: 42017003
42
17
3
`Take heed to yourselves, and, if thy brother may sin in regard to thee, rebuke him, and if he may reform, forgive him,
field: 42017004
42
17
4
and if seven times in the day he may sin against thee, and seven times in the day may turn back to thee, saying, I reform; thou shalt forgive him.'
field: 42017005
42
17
5
And the apostles said to the Lord, `Add to us faith;'
field: 42017006
42
17
6
and the Lord said, `If ye had faith as a grain of mustard, ye would have said to this sycamine, Be uprooted, and be planted in the sea, and it would have obeyed you.
field: 42017007
42
17
7
`But, who is he of you -- having a servant ploughing or feeding -- who, to him having come in out of the field, will say, Having come near, recline at meat?
field: 42017008
42
17
8
but will not `rather' say to him, Prepare what I may sup, and having girded thyself about, minister to me, till I eat and drink, and after these things thou shalt eat and drink?
field: 42017009
42
17
9
Hath he favour to that servant because he did the things directed? I think not.
field: 42017010
42
17
10
`So also ye, when ye may have done all the things directed you, say -- We are unprofitable servants, because that which we owed to do -- we have done.'
field: 42017011
42
17
11
And it came to pass, in his going on to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee,
field: 42017012
42
17
12
and he entering into a certain village, there met him ten leprous men, who stood afar off,
field: 42017013
42
17
13
and they lifted up the voice, saying, `Jesus, master, deal kindly with us;'
field: 42017014
42
17
14
and having seen `them', he said to them, `Having gone on, shew yourselves to the priests;' and it came to pass, in their going, they were cleansed,
field: 42017015
42
17
15
and one of them having seen that he was healed did turn back, with a loud voice glorifying God,
field: 42017016
42
17
16
and he fell upon `his' face at his feet, giving thanks to him, and he was a Samaritan.
field: 42017017
42
17
17
And Jesus answering said, `Were not the ten cleansed, and the nine -- where?
field: 42017018
42
17
18
There were not found who did turn back to give glory to God, except this alien;'
field: 42017019
42
17
19
and he said to him, `Having risen, be going on, thy faith hath saved thee.'
field: 42017020
42
17
20
And having been questioned by the Pharisees, when the reign of God doth come, he answered them, and said, `The reign of God doth not come with observation;
field: 42017021
42
17
21
nor shall they say, Lo, here; or lo, there; for lo, the reign of God is within you.'
field: 42017022
42
17
22
And he said unto his disciples, `Days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and ye shall not behold `it';
field: 42017023
42
17
23
and they shall say to you, Lo, here; or lo, there; ye may not go away, nor follow;
field: 42017024
42
17
24
for as the lightning that is lightening out of the one `part' under heaven, to the other part under heaven doth shine, so shall be also the Son of Man in his day;
field: 42017025
42
17
25
and first it behoveth him to suffer many things, and to be rejected by this generation.
field: 42017026
42
17
26
`And, as it came to pass in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of Man;
field: 42017027
42
17
27
they were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, they were given in marriage, till the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the deluge came, and destroyed all;
field: 42017028
42
17
28
in like manner also, as it came to pass in the days of Lot; they were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, they were building;
field: 42017029
42
17
29
and on the day Lot went forth from Sodom, He rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed all.
field: 42017030
42
17
30
`According to these things it shall be, in the day the Son of Man is revealed;
field: 42017031
42
17
31
in that day, he who shall be on the house top, and his vessels in the house, let him not come down to take them away; and he in the field, in like manner, let him not turn backward;
field: 42017032
42
17
32
remember the wife of Lot.
field: 42017033
42
17
33
Whoever may seek to save his life, shall lose it; and whoever may lose it, shall preserve it.
field: 42017034
42
17
34
`I say to you, In that night, there shall be two men on one couch, the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left;
field: 42017035
42
17
35
two women shall be grinding at the same place together, the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left;
field: 42017036
42
17
36
two men shall be in the field, the one shall be taken, and the other left.'
field: 42017037
42
17
37
And they answering say to him, `Where, sir?' and he said to them, `Where the body `is', there will the eagles be gathered together.'
field: 42018001
42
18
1
And he spake also a simile to them, that it behoveth `us' always to pray, and not to faint,
field: 42018002
42
18
2
saying, `A certain judge was in a certain city -- God he is not fearing, and man he is not regarding --
field: 42018003
42
18
3
and a widow was in that city, and she was coming unto him, saying, Do me justice on my opponent,
field: 42018004
42
18
4
and he would not for a time, but after these things he said in himself, Even if God I do not fear, and man do not regard,
field: 42018005
42
18
5
yet because this widow doth give me trouble, I will do her justice, lest, perpetually coming, she may plague me.'
field: 42018006
42
18
6
And the Lord said, `Hear ye what the unrighteous judge saith:
field: 42018007
42
18
7
and shall not God execute the justice to His choice ones, who are crying unto Him day and night -- bearing long in regard to them?
field: 42018008
42
18
8
I say to you, that He will execute the justice to them quickly; but the Son of Man having come, shall he find the faith upon the earth?'
field: 42018009
42
18
9
And he spake also unto certain who have been trusting in themselves that they were righteous, and have been despising the rest, this simile:
field: 42018010
42
18
10
`Two men went up to the temple to pray, the one a Pharisee, and the other a tax-gatherer;
field: 42018011
42
18
11
the Pharisee having stood by himself, thus prayed: God, I thank Thee that I am not as the rest of men, rapacious, unrighteous, adulterers, or even as this tax-gatherer;
field: 42018012
42
18
12
I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all things -- as many as I possess.
field: 42018013
42
18
13
`And the tax-gatherer, having stood afar off, would not even the eyes lift up to the heaven, but was smiting on his breast, saying, God be propitious to me -- the sinner!
field: 42018014
42
18
14
I say to you, this one went down declared righteous, to his house, rather than that one: for every one who is exalting himself shall be humbled, and he who is humbling himself shall be exalted.'
field: 42018015
42
18
15
And they were bringing near also the babes, that he may touch them, and the disciples having seen did rebuke them,
field: 42018016
42
18
16
and Jesus having called them near, said, `Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the reign of God;
field: 42018017
42
18
17
verily I say to you, Whoever may not receive the reign of God as a little child, may not enter into it.'
field: 42018018
42
18
18
And a certain ruler questioned him, saying, `Good teacher, what having done -- shall I inherit life age-during?'
field: 42018019
42
18
19
And Jesus said to him, `Why me dost thou call good? no one `is' good, except One -- God;
field: 42018020
42
18
20
the commands thou hast known: Thou mayest not commit adultery, Thou mayest do no murder, Thou mayest not steal, Thou mayest not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.'
field: 42018021
42
18
21
And he said, `All these I did keep from my youth;'
field: 42018022
42
18
22
and having heard these things, Jesus said to him, `Yet one thing to thee is lacking; all things -- as many as thou hast -- sell, and distribute to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come, be following me;'
field: 42018023
42
18
23
and he, having heard these things, became very sorrowful, for he was exceeding rich.
field: 42018024
42
18
24
And Jesus having seen him become very sorrowful, said, `How hardly shall those having riches enter into the reign of God!
field: 42018025
42
18
25
for it is easier for a camel through the eye of a needle to enter, than for a rich man into the reign of God to enter.'
field: 42018026
42
18
26
And those who heard, said, `And who is able to be saved?'
field: 42018027
42
18
27
and he said, `The things impossible with men are possible with God.'
field: 42018028
42
18
28
And Peter said, `Lo, we left all, and did follow thee;'
field: 42018029
42
18
29
and he said to them, `Verily I say to you, that there is not one who left house, or parents, or brothers, or wife, or children, for the sake of the reign of God,
field: 42018030
42
18
30
who may not receive back manifold more in this time, and in the coming age, life age-during.'
field: 42018031
42
18
31
And having taken the twelve aside, he said unto them, `Lo, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things shall be completed -- that have been written through the prophets -- to the Son of Man,
field: 42018032
42
18
32
for he shall be delivered up to the nations, and shall be mocked, and insulted, and spit upon,
field: 42018033
42
18
33
and having scourged they shall put him to death, and on the third day he shall rise again.'
field: 42018034
42
18
34
And they none of these things understood, and this saying was hid from them, and they were not knowing the things said.
field: 42018035
42
18
35
And it came to pass, in his coming nigh to Jericho, a certain blind man was sitting beside the way begging,
field: 42018036
42
18
36
and having heard a multitude going by, he was inquiring what this may be,
field: 42018037
42
18
37
and they brought him word that Jesus the Nazarene doth pass by,
field: 42018038
42
18
38
and he cried out, saying, `Jesus, Son of David, deal kindly with me;'
field: 42018039
42
18
39
and those going before were rebuking him, that he might be silent, but he was much more crying out, `Son of David, deal kindly with me.'
field: 42018040
42
18
40
And Jesus having stood, commanded him to be brought unto him, and he having come nigh, he questioned him,
field: 42018041
42
18
41
saying, `What wilt thou I shall do to thee?' and he said, `Sir, that I may receive sight.'
field: 42018042
42
18
42
And Jesus said to him, `Receive thy sight; thy faith hath saved thee;'
field: 42018043
42
18
43
and presently he did receive sight, and was following him, glorifying God; and all the people, having seen, did give praise to God.
field: 42019001
42
19
1
And having entered, he was passing through Jericho,
field: 42019002
42
19
2
and lo, a man, by name called Zaccheus, and he was a chief tax-gatherer, and he was rich,
field: 42019003
42
19
3
and he was seeking to see Jesus, who he is, and was not able for the multitude, because in stature he was small,
field: 42019004
42
19
4
and having run forward before, he went up on a sycamore, that he may see him, because through that `way' he was about to pass by.
field: 42019005
42
19
5
And as Jesus came up to the place, having looked up, he saw him, and said unto him, `Zaccheus, having hastened, come down, for to-day in thy house it behoveth me to remain;'
field: 42019006
42
19
6
and he having hastened did come down, and did receive him rejoicing;
field: 42019007
42
19
7
and having seen `it', they were all murmuring, saying -- `With a sinful man he went in to lodge!'
field: 42019008
42
19
8
And Zaccheus having stood, said unto the Lord, `Lo, the half of my goods, sir, I give to the poor, and if of any one anything I did take by false accusation, I give back fourfold.'
field: 42019009
42
19
9
And Jesus said unto him -- `To-day salvation did come to this house, inasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham;
field: 42019010
42
19
10
for the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.'
field: 42019011
42
19
11
And while they are hearing these things, having added he spake a simile, because of his being nigh to Jerusalem, and of their thinking that the reign of God is about presently to be made manifest.
field: 42019012
42
19
12
He said therefore, `A certain man of birth went on to a far country, to take to himself a kingdom, and to return,
field: 42019013
42
19
13
and having called ten servants of his own, he gave to them ten pounds, and said unto them, Do business -- till I come;
field: 42019014
42
19
14
and his citizens were hating him, and did send an embassy after him, saying, We do not wish this one to reign over us.
field: 42019015
42
19
15
`And it came to pass, on his coming back, having taken the kingdom, that he commanded these servants to be called to him, to whom he gave the money, that he might know what any one had done in business.
field: 42019016
42
19
16
`And the first came near, saying, Sir, thy pound did gain ten pounds;
field: 42019017
42
19
17
and he said to him, Well done, good servant, because in a very little thou didst become faithful, be having authority over ten cities.
field: 42019018
42
19
18
`And the second came, saying, Sir, thy pound made five pounds;
field: 42019019
42
19
19
and he said also to this one, And thou, become thou over five cities.
field: 42019020
42
19
20
`And another came, saying, Sir, lo, thy pound, that I had lying away in a napkin;
field: 42019021
42
19
21
for I was afraid of thee, because thou art an austere man; thou takest up what thou didst not lay down, and reapest what thou didst not sow.
field: 42019022
42
19
22
`And he saith to him, Out of thy mouth I will judge thee, evil servant: thou knewest that I am an austere man, taking up what I did not lay down, and reaping what I did not sow!
field: 42019023
42
19
23
and wherefore didst thou not give my money to the bank, and I, having come, with interest might have received it?
field: 42019024
42
19
24
`And to those standing by he said, Take from him the pound, and give to him having the ten pounds --
field: 42019025
42
19
25
(and they said to him, Sir, he hath ten pounds) --
field: 42019026
42
19
26
for I say to you, that to every one having shall be given, and from him not having, also what he hath shall be taken from him,
field: 42019027
42
19
27
but those my enemies, who did not wish me to reign over them, bring hither and slay before me.'
field: 42019028
42
19
28
And having said these things, he went on before, going up to Jerusalem.
field: 42019029
42
19
29
And it came to pass, as he came nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, unto the mount called of the Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
field: 42019030
42
19
30
having said, Go away to the village over-against, in which, entering into, ye shall find a colt bound, on which no one of men did ever sit, having loosed it, bring `it';
field: 42019031
42
19
31
and if any one doth question you, Wherefore do ye loose `it'? thus ye shall say to him -- The Lord hath need of it.'
field: 42019032
42
19
32
And those sent, having gone away, found according as he said to them,
field: 42019033
42
19
33
and while they are loosing the colt, its owners said unto them, `Why loose ye the colt?'
field: 42019034
42
19
34
and they said, `The Lord hath need of it;'
field: 42019035
42
19
35
and they brought it unto Jesus, and having cast their garments upon the colt, they did set Jesus upon it.
field: 42019036
42
19
36
And as he is going, they were spreading their garments in the way,
field: 42019037
42
19
37
and as he is coming nigh now, at the descent of the mount of the Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began rejoicing to praise God with a great voice for all the mighty works they had seen,
field: 42019038
42
19
38
saying, `blessed `is' he who is coming, a king in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.'
field: 42019039
42
19
39
And certain of the Pharisees from the multitude said unto him, `Teacher, rebuke thy disciples;'
field: 42019040
42
19
40
and he answering said to them, `I say to you, that, if these shall be silent, the stones will cry out!'
field: 42019041
42
19
41
And when he came nigh, having seen the city, he wept over it,
field: 42019042
42
19
42
saying -- `If thou didst know, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things for thy peace; but now they were hid from thine eyes.
field: 42019043
42
19
43
`Because days shall come upon thee, and thine enemies shall cast around thee a rampart, and compass thee round, and press thee on every side,
field: 42019044
42
19
44
and lay thee low, and thy children within thee, and they shall not leave in thee a stone upon a stone, because thou didst not know the time of thy inspection.'
field: 42019045
42
19
45
And having entered into the temple, he began to cast forth those selling in it, and those buying,
field: 42019046
42
19
46
saying to them, `It hath been written, My house is a house of prayer -- but ye made it a den of robbers.'
field: 42019047
42
19
47
And he was teaching daily in the temple, but the chief priests and the scribes were seeking to destroy him -- also the chiefs of the people --
field: 42019048
42
19
48
and they were not finding what they shall do, for all the people were hanging on him, hearing him.
field: 42020001
42
20
1
And it came to pass, on one of those days, as he is teaching the people in the temple, and proclaiming good news, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came upon `him',
field: 42020002
42
20
2
and spake unto him, saying, `Tell us by what authority thou dost these things? or who is he that gave to thee this authority?'
field: 42020003
42
20
3
And he answering said unto them, `I will question you -- I also -- one thing, and tell me:
field: 42020004
42
20
4
the baptism of John, from heaven was it, or from men?'
field: 42020005
42
20
5
And they reasoned with themselves, saying -- `If we may say, From heaven, he will say, Wherefore, then, did ye not believe him?
field: 42020006
42
20
6
and if we may say, From men, all the people will stone us, for they are having been persuaded John to be a prophet.'
field: 42020007
42
20
7
And they answered, that they knew not whence `it was',
field: 42020008
42
20
8
and Jesus said to them, `Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things.'
field: 42020009
42
20
9
And he began to speak unto the people this simile: `A certain man planted a vineyard, and gave it out to husbandmen, and went abroad for a long time,
field: 42020010
42
20
10
and at the season he sent unto the husbandmen a servant, that from the fruit of the vineyard they may give to him, but the husbandmen having beat him, did send `him' away empty.
field: 42020011
42
20
11
`And he added to send another servant, and they that one also having beaten and dishonoured, did send away empty;
field: 42020012
42
20
12
and he added to send a third, and this one also, having wounded, they did cast out.
field: 42020013
42
20
13
`And the owner of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my son -- the beloved, perhaps having seen this one, they will do reverence;
field: 42020014
42
20
14
and having seen him, the husbandmen reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; come, we may kill him, that the inheritance may become ours;
field: 42020015
42
20
15
and having cast him outside of the vineyard, they killed `him'; what, then, shall the owner of the vineyard do to them?
field: 42020016
42
20
16
He will come, and destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others.' And having heard, they said, `Let it not be!'
field: 42020017
42
20
17
and he, having looked upon them, said, `What, then, is this that hath been written: A stone that the builders rejected -- this became head of a corner?
field: 42020018
42
20
18
every one who hath fallen on that stone shall be broken, and on whom it may fall, it will crush him to pieces.'
field: 42020019
42
20
19
And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him in that hour, and they feared the people, for they knew that against them he spake this simile.
field: 42020020
42
20
20
And, having watched `him', they sent forth liers in wait, feigning themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of his word, to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor,
field: 42020021
42
20
21
and they questioned him, saying, `Teacher, we have known that thou dost say and teach rightly, and dost not accept a person, but in truth the way of God dost teach;
field: 42020022
42
20
22
Is it lawful to us to give tribute to Caesar or not?'
field: 42020023
42
20
23
And he, having perceived their craftiness, said unto them, `Why me do ye tempt?
field: 42020024
42
20
24
shew me a denary; of whom hath it an image and superscription?' and they answering said, `Of Caesar:'
field: 42020025
42
20
25
and he said to them, `Give back, therefore, the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God;'
field: 42020026
42
20
26
and they were not able to take hold on his saying before the people, and having wondered at his answer, they were silent.
field: 42020027
42
20
27
And certain of the Sadducees, who are denying that there is a rising again, having come near, questioned him,
field: 42020028
42
20
28
saying, `Teacher, Moses wrote to us, If any one's brother may die, having a wife, and he may die childless -- that his brother may take the wife, and may raise up seed to his brother.
field: 42020029
42
20
29
`There were, then, seven brothers, and the first having taken a wife, died childless,
field: 42020030
42
20
30
and the second took the wife, and he died childless,
field: 42020031
42
20
31
and the third took her, and in like manner also the seven -- they left not children, and they died;
field: 42020032
42
20
32
and last of all died also the woman:
field: 42020033
42
20
33
in the rising again, then, of which of them doth she become wife? -- for the seven had her as wife.'
field: 42020034
42
20
34
And Jesus answering said to them, `The sons of this age do marry and are given in marriage,
field: 42020035
42
20
35
but those accounted worthy to obtain that age, and the rising again that is out of the dead, neither marry, nor are they given in marriage;
field: 42020036
42
20
36
for neither are they able to die any more -- for they are like messengers -- and they are sons of God, being sons of the rising again.
field: 42020037
42
20
37
`And that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the Bush, since he doth call the Lord, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;
field: 42020038
42
20
38
and He is not a God of dead men, but of living, for all live to Him.'
field: 42020039
42
20
39
And certain of the scribes answering said, `Teacher, thou didst say well;'
field: 42020040
42
20
40
and no more durst they question him anything.
field: 42020041
42
20
41
And he said unto them, `How do they say the Christ to be son of David,
field: 42020042
42
20
42
and David himself saith in the Book of Psalms, The Lord said to my lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
field: 42020043
42
20
43
till I shall make thine enemies thy footstool;
field: 42020044
42
20
44
David, then, doth call him lord, and how is he his son?'
field: 42020045
42
20
45
And, all the people hearing, he said to his disciples,
field: 42020046
42
20
46
`Take heed of the scribes, who are wishing to walk in long robes, and are loving salutations in the markets, and first seats in the synagogues, and first couches in the suppers,
field: 42020047
42
20
47
who devour the houses of the widows, and for a pretence make long prayers, these shall receive more abundant judgment.'
field: 42021001
42
21
1
And having looked up, he saw those who did cast their gifts to the treasury -- rich men,
field: 42021002
42
21
2
and he saw also a certain poor widow casting there two mites,
field: 42021003
42
21
3
and he said, `Truly I say to you, that this poor widow did cast in more than all;
field: 42021004
42
21
4
for all these out of their superabundance did cast into the gifts to God, but this one out of her want, all the living that she had, did cast in.'
field: 42021005
42
21
5
And certain saying about the temple, that with goodly stones and devoted things it hath been adorned, he said,
field: 42021006
42
21
6
`These things that ye behold -- days will come, in which there shall not be left a stone upon a stone, that shall not be thrown down.'
field: 42021007
42
21
7
And they questioned him, saying, `Teacher, when, then, shall these things be? and what `is' the sign when these things may be about to happen?'
field: 42021008
42
21
8
And he said, `See -- ye may not be led astray, for many shall come in my name, saying -- I am `he', and the time hath come nigh; go not on then after them;
field: 42021009
42
21
9
and when ye may hear of wars and uprisings, be not terrified, for it behoveth these things to happen first, but the end `is' not immediately.'
field: 42021010
42
21
10
Then said he to them, `Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom,
field: 42021011
42
21
11
great shakings also in every place, and famines, and pestilences, there shall be; fearful things also, and great signs from heaven there shall be;
field: 42021012
42
21
12
and before all these, they shall lay on you their hands, and persecute, delivering up to synagogues and prisons, being brought before kings and governors for my name's sake;
field: 42021013
42
21
13
and it shall become to you for a testimony.
field: 42021014
42
21
14
`Settle, then, to your hearts, not to meditate beforehand to reply,
field: 42021015
42
21
15
for I will give to you a mouth and wisdom that all your opposers shall not be able to refute or resist.
field: 42021016
42
21
16
`And ye shall be delivered up also by parents, and brothers, and kindred, and friends, and they shall put of you to death;
field: 42021017
42
21
17
and ye shall be hated by all because of my name --
field: 42021018
42
21
18
and a hair out of your head shall not perish;
field: 42021019
42
21
19
in your patience possess ye your souls.
field: 42021020
42
21
20
`And when ye may see Jerusalem surrounded by encampments, then know that come nigh did her desolation;
field: 42021021
42
21
21
then those in Judea, let them flee to the mountains; and those in her midst, let them depart out; and those in the countries, let them not come in to her;
field: 42021022
42
21
22
because these are days of vengeance, to fulfil all things that have been written.
field: 42021023
42
21
23
`And wo to those with child, and to those giving suck, in those days; for there shall be great distress on the land, and wrath on this people;
field: 42021024
42
21
24
and they shall fall by the mouth of the sword, and shall be led captive to all the nations, and Jerusalem shall be trodden down by nations, till the times of nations be fulfilled.
field: 42021025
42
21
25
`And there shall be signs in sun, and moon, and stars, and on the land `is' distress of nations with perplexity, sea and billow roaring;
field: 42021026
42
21
26
men fainting at heart from fear, and expectation of the things coming on the world, for the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.
field: 42021027
42
21
27
`And then they shall see the Son of Man, coming in a cloud, with power and much glory;
field: 42021028
42
21
28
and these things beginning to happen bend yourselves back, and lift up your heads, because your redemption doth draw nigh.'
field: 42021029
42
21
29
And he spake a simile to them: `See the fig-tree, and all the trees,
field: 42021030
42
21
30
when they may now cast forth, having seen, of yourselves ye know that now is the summer nigh;
field: 42021031
42
21
31
so also ye, when ye may see these things happening, ye know that near is the reign of God;
field: 42021032
42
21
32
verily I say to you -- This generation may not pass away till all may have come to pass;
field: 42021033
42
21
33
the heaven and the earth shall pass away, but my words may not pass away.
field: 42021034
42
21
34
`And take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts may be weighed down with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and anxieties of life, and suddenly that day may come on you,
field: 42021035
42
21
35
for as a snare it shall come on all those dwelling on the face of all the land,
field: 42021036
42
21
36
watch ye, then, in every season, praying that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that are about to come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.'
field: 42021037
42
21
37
And he was during the days in the temple teaching, and during the nights, going forth, he was lodging at the mount called of Olives;
field: 42021038
42
21
38
and all the people were coming early unto him in the temple to hear him.
field: 42022001
42
22
1
And the feast of the unleavened food was coming nigh, that is called Passover,
field: 42022002
42
22
2
and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they may take him up, for they were afraid of the people.
field: 42022003
42
22
3
And the Adversary entered into Judas, who is surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve,
field: 42022004
42
22
4
and he, having gone away, spake with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might deliver him up to them,
field: 42022005
42
22
5
and they rejoiced, and covenanted to give him money,
field: 42022006
42
22
6
and he agreed, and was seeking a favourable season to deliver him up to them without tumult.
field: 42022007
42
22
7
And the day of the unleavened food came, in which it was behoving the passover to be sacrificed,
field: 42022008
42
22
8
and he sent Peter and John, saying, `Having gone on, prepare to us the passover, that we may eat;'
field: 42022009
42
22
9
and they said to him, `Where wilt thou that we might prepare?'
field: 42022010
42
22
10
And he said to them, `Lo, in your entering into the city, there shall meet you a man, bearing a pitcher of water, follow him to the house where he doth go in,
field: 42022011
42
22
11
and ye shall say to the master of the house, The Teacher saith to thee, Where is the guest-chamber where the passover with my disciples I may eat?
field: 42022012
42
22
12
and he shall show you a large upper room furnished, there make ready;'
field: 42022013
42
22
13
and they, having gone away, found as he hath said to them, and they made ready the passover.
field: 42022014
42
22
14
And when the hour come, he reclined (at meat), and the twelve apostles with him,
field: 42022015
42
22
15
and he said unto them, `With desire I did desire to eat this passover with you before my suffering,
field: 42022016
42
22
16
for I say to you, that no more may I eat of it till it may be fulfilled in the reign of God.'
field: 42022017
42
22
17
And having taken a cup, having given thanks, he said, `Take this and divide to yourselves,
field: 42022018
42
22
18
for I say to you that I may not drink of the produce of the vine till the reign of God may come.'
field: 42022019
42
22
19
And having taken bread, having given thanks, he brake and gave to them, saying, `This is my body, that for you is being given, this do ye -- to remembrance of me.'
field: 42022020
42
22
20
In like manner, also, the cup after the supping, saying, `This cup `is' the new covenant in my blood, that for you is being poured forth.
field: 42022021
42
22
21
`But, lo, the hand of him delivering me up `is' with me on the table,
field: 42022022
42
22
22
and indeed the Son of Man doth go according to what hath been determined; but wo to that man through whom he is being delivered up.'
field: 42022023
42
22
23
And they began to reason among themselves, who then of them it may be, who is about to do this thing.
field: 42022024
42
22
24
And there happened also a strife among them -- who of them is accounted to be greater.
field: 42022025
42
22
25
And he said to them, `The kings of the nations do exercise lordship over them, and those exercising authority upon them are called benefactors;
field: 42022026
42
22
26
but ye `are' not so, but he who is greater among you -- let him be as the younger; and he who is leading, as he who is ministering;
field: 42022027
42
22
27
for who is greater? he who is reclining (at meat), or he who is ministering? is it not he who is reclining (at meat)? and I -- I am in your midst as he who is ministering.
field: 42022028
42
22
28
`And ye -- ye are those who have remained with me in my temptations,
field: 42022029
42
22
29
and I appoint to you, as my Father did appoint to me, a kingdom,
field: 42022030
42
22
30
that ye may eat and may drink at my table, in my kingdom, and may sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.'
field: 42022031
42
22
31
And the Lord said, `Simon, Simon, lo, the Adversary did ask you for himself to sift as the wheat,
field: 42022032
42
22
32
and I besought for thee, that thy faith may not fail; and thou, when thou didst turn, strengthen thy brethren.'
field: 42022033
42
22
33
And he said to him, `Sir, with thee I am ready both to prison and to death to go;'
field: 42022034
42
22
34
and he said, `I say to thee, Peter, a cock shall not crow to-day, before thrice thou mayest disown knowing me.'
field: 42022035
42
22
35
And he said to them, `When I sent you without bag, and scrip, and sandals, did ye lack anything?' and they said, `Nothing.'
field: 42022036
42
22
36
Then said he to them, `But, now, he who is having a bag, let him take `it' up, and in like manner also a scrip; and he who is not having, let him sell his garment, and buy a sword,
field: 42022037
42
22
37
for I say to you, that yet this that hath been written it behoveth to be fulfilled in me: And with lawless ones he was reckoned, for also the things concerning me have an end.'
field: 42022038
42
22
38
And they said, `Sir, lo, here `are' two swords;' and he said to them, `It is sufficient.'
field: 42022039
42
22
39
And having gone forth, he went on, according to custom, to the mount of the Olives, and his disciples also followed him,
field: 42022040
42
22
40
and having come to the place, he said to them, `Pray ye not to enter into temptation.'
field: 42022041
42
22
41
And he was withdrawn from them, as it were a stone's cast, and having fallen on the knees he was praying,
field: 42022042
42
22
42
saying, `Father, if Thou be counselling to make this cup pass from me --; but, not my will, but Thine be done.' --
field: 42022043
42
22
43
And there appeared to him a messenger from heaven strengthening him;
field: 42022044
42
22
44
and having been in agony, he was more earnestly praying, and his sweat became, as it were, great drops of blood falling upon the ground.
field: 42022045
42
22
45
And having risen up from the prayer, having come unto the disciples, he found them sleeping from the sorrow,
field: 42022046
42
22
46
and he said to them, `Why do ye sleep? having risen, pray that ye may not enter into temptation.'
field: 42022047
42
22
47
And while he is speaking, lo, a multitude, and he who is called Judas, one of the twelve, was coming before them, and he came nigh to Jesus to kiss him,
field: 42022048
42
22
48
and Jesus said to him, `Judas, with a kiss the Son of Man dost thou deliver up?'
field: 42022049
42
22
49
And those about him, having seen what was about to be, said to him, `Sir, shall we smite with a sword?'
field: 42022050
42
22
50
And a certain one of them smote the servant of the chief priest, and took off his right ear,
field: 42022051
42
22
51
and Jesus answering said, `Suffer ye thus far,' and having touched his ear, he healed him.
field: 42022052
42
22
52
And Jesus said to those having come upon him -- chief priests, and magistrates of the temple, and elders -- `As upon a robber have ye come forth, with swords and sticks?
field: 42022053
42
22
53
while daily I was with you in the temple, ye did stretch forth no hands against me; but this is your hour and the power of the darkness.'
field: 42022054
42
22
54
And having taken him, they led and brought him to the house of the chief priest. And Peter was following afar off,
field: 42022055
42
22
55
and they having kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and having sat down together, Peter was sitting in the midst of them,
field: 42022056
42
22
56
and a certain maid having seen him sitting at the light, and having earnestly looked at him, she said, `And this one was with him!'
field: 42022057
42
22
57
and he disowned him, saying, `Woman, I have not known him.'
field: 42022058
42
22
58
And after a little, another having seen him, said, `And thou art of them!' and Peter said, `Man, I am not.'
field: 42022059
42
22
59
And one hour, as it were, having intervened, a certain other was confidently affirming, saying, `Of a truth this one also was with him, for he is also a Galilean;'
field: 42022060
42
22
60
and Peter said, `Man, I have not known what thou sayest;' and presently, while he is speaking, a cock crew.
field: 42022061
42
22
61
And the Lord having turned did look on Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him -- `Before a cock shall crow, thou mayest disown me thrice;'
field: 42022062
42
22
62
and Peter having gone without, wept bitterly.
field: 42022063
42
22
63
And the men who were holding Jesus were mocking him, beating `him';
field: 42022064
42
22
64
and having blindfolded him, they were striking him on the face, and were questioning him, saying, `Prophesy who he is who smote thee?'
field: 42022065
42
22
65
and many other things, speaking evilly, they spake in regard to him.
field: 42022066
42
22
66
And when it became day there was gathered together the eldership of the people, chief priests also, and scribes, and they led him up to their own sanhedrim,
field: 42022067
42
22
67
saying, `If thou be the Christ, tell us.' And he said to them, `If I may tell you, ye will not believe;
field: 42022068
42
22
68
and if I also question `you', ye will not answer me or send me away;
field: 42022069
42
22
69
henceforth, there shall be the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power of God.'
field: 42022070
42
22
70
And they all said, `Thou, then, art the Son of God?' and he said unto them, `Ye say `it', because I am;'
field: 42022071
42
22
71
and they said, `What need yet have we of testimony? for we ourselves did hear `it' from his mouth.'
field: 42023001
42
23
1
And having risen, the whole multitude of them did lead him to Pilate,
field: 42023002
42
23
2
and began to accuse him, saying, `This one we found perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying himself to be Christ a king.'
field: 42023003
42
23
3
And Pilate questioned him, saying, `Thou art the king of the Jews?' and he answering him, said, `Thou dost say `it'.'
field: 42023004
42
23
4
And Pilate said unto the chief priests, and the multitude, `I find no fault in this man;'
field: 42023005
42
23
5
and they were the more urgent, saying -- `He doth stir up the people, teaching throughout the whole of Judea -- having begun from Galilee -- unto this place.'
field: 42023006
42
23
6
And Pilate having heard of Galilee, questioned if the man is a Galilean,
field: 42023007
42
23
7
and having known that he is from the jurisdiction of Herod, he sent him back unto Herod, he being also in Jerusalem in those days.
field: 42023008
42
23
8
And Herod having seen Jesus did rejoice exceedingly, for he was wishing for a long `time' to see him, because of hearing many things about him, and he was hoping some sign to see done by him,
field: 42023009
42
23
9
and was questioning him in many words, and he answered him nothing.
field: 42023010
42
23
10
And the chief priests and the scribes stood vehemently accusing him,
field: 42023011
42
23
11
and Herod with his soldiers having set him at nought, and having mocked, having put around him gorgeous apparel, did send him back to Pilate,
field: 42023012
42
23
12
and both Pilate and Herod became friends on that day with one another, for they were before at enmity between themselves.
field: 42023013
42
23
13
And Pilate having called together the chief priests, and the rulers, and the people,
field: 42023014
42
23
14
said unto them, `Ye brought to me this man as perverting the people, and lo, I before you having examined, found in this man no fault in those things ye bring forward against him;
field: 42023015
42
23
15
no, nor yet Herod, for I sent you back unto him, and lo, nothing worthy of death is having been done by him;
field: 42023016
42
23
16
having chastised, therefore, I will release him,'
field: 42023017
42
23
17
for it was necessary for him to release to them one at every feast,
field: 42023018
42
23
18
and they cried out -- the whole multitude -- saying, `Away with this one, and release to us Barabbas,'
field: 42023019
42
23
19
who had been, because of a certain sedition made in the city, and murder, cast into prison.
field: 42023020
42
23
20
Pilate again then -- wishing to release Jesus -- called to them,
field: 42023021
42
23
21
but they were calling out, saying, `Crucify, crucify him.'
field: 42023022
42
23
22
And he a third time said unto them, `Why, what evil did he? no cause of death did I find in him; having chastised him, then, I will release `him'.'
field: 42023023
42
23
23
And they were pressing with loud voices asking him to be crucified, and their voices, and those of the chief priests, were prevailing,
field: 42023024
42
23
24
and Pilate gave judgment for their request being done,
field: 42023025
42
23
25
and he released him who because of sedition and murder hath been cast into the prison, whom they were asking, and Jesus he gave up to their will.
field: 42023026
42
23
26
And as they led him away, having taken hold on Simon, a certain Cyrenian, coming from the field, they put on him the cross, to bear `it' behind Jesus.
field: 42023027
42
23
27
And there was following him a great multitude of the people, and of women, who also were beating themselves and lamenting him,
field: 42023028
42
23
28
and Jesus having turned unto them, said, `Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but for yourselves weep ye, and for your children;
field: 42023029
42
23
29
for, lo, days do come, in which they shall say, Happy the barren, and wombs that did not bare, and paps that did not give suck;
field: 42023030
42
23
30
then they shall begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us, and to the hills, Cover us; --
field: 42023031
42
23
31
for, if in the green tree they do these things -- in the dry what may happen?'
field: 42023032
42
23
32
And there were also others -- two evil-doers -- with him, to be put to death;
field: 42023033
42
23
33
and when they came to the place that is called Skull, there they crucified him and the evil-doers, one on the right hand and one on the left.
field: 42023034
42
23
34
And Jesus said, `Father, forgive them, for they have not known what they do;' and parting his garments they cast a lot.
field: 42023035
42
23
35
And the people were standing, looking on, and the rulers also were sneering with them, saying, `Others he saved, let him save himself, if this be the Christ, the choice one of God.'
field: 42023036
42
23
36
And mocking him also were the soldiers, coming near and offering vinegar to him,
field: 42023037
42
23
37
and saying, `If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.'
field: 42023038
42
23
38
And there was also a superscription written over him, in letters of Greek, and Roman, and Hebrew, `This is the King of the Jews.'
field: 42023039
42
23
39
And one of the evil-doers who were hanged, was speaking evil of him, saying, `If thou be the Christ, save thyself and us.'
field: 42023040
42
23
40
And the other answering, was rebuking him, saying, `Dost thou not even fear God, that thou art in the same judgment?
field: 42023041
42
23
41
and we indeed righteously, for things worthy of what we did we receive back, but this one did nothing out of place;'
field: 42023042
42
23
42
and he said to Jesus, `Remember me, lord, when thou mayest come in thy reign;'
field: 42023043
42
23
43
and Jesus said to him, `Verily I say to thee, To-day with me thou shalt be in the paradise.'
field: 42023044
42
23
44
And it was, as it were, the sixth hour, and darkness came over all the land till the ninth hour,
field: 42023045
42
23
45
and the sun was darkened, and the vail of the sanctuary was rent in the midst,
field: 42023046
42
23
46
and having cried with a loud voice, Jesus said, `Father, to Thy hands I commit my spirit;' and these things having said, he breathed forth the spirit.
field: 42023047
42
23
47
And the centurion having seen what was done, did glorify God, saying, `Really this man was righteous;'
field: 42023048
42
23
48
and all the multitudes who were come together to this sight, beholding the things that came to pass, smiting their breasts did turn back;
field: 42023049
42
23
49
and all his acquaintances stood afar off, and women who did follow him from Galilee, beholding these things.
field: 42023050
42
23
50
And lo, a man, by name Joseph, being a counsellor, a man good and righteous,
field: 42023051
42
23
51
-- he was not consenting to their counsel and deed -- from Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who also himself was expecting the reign of God,
field: 42023052
42
23
52
he, having gone near to Pilate, asked the body of Jesus,
field: 42023053
42
23
53
and having taken it down, he wrapped it in fine linen, and placed it in a tomb hewn out, where no one was yet laid.
field: 42023054
42
23
54
And the day was a preparation, and sabbath was approaching,
field: 42023055
42
23
55
and the women also who have come with him out of Galilee having followed after, beheld the tomb, and how his body was placed,
field: 42023056
42
23
56
and having turned back, they made ready spices and ointments, and on the sabbath, indeed, they rested, according to the command.
field: 42024001
42
24
1
And on the first of the sabbaths, at early dawn, they came to the tomb, bearing the spices they made ready, and certain `others' with them,
field: 42024002
42
24
2
and they found the stone having been rolled away from the tomb,
field: 42024003
42
24
3
and having gone in, they found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
field: 42024004
42
24
4
And it came to pass, while they are perplexed about this, that lo, two men stood by them in glittering apparel,
field: 42024005
42
24
5
and on their having become afraid, and having inclined the face to the earth, they said to them, `Why do ye seek the living with the dead?
field: 42024006
42
24
6
he is not here, but was raised; remember how he spake to you, being yet in Galilee,
field: 42024007
42
24
7
saying -- It behoveth the Son of Man to be delivered up to the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and the third day to rise again.'
field: 42024008
42
24
8
And they remembered his sayings,
field: 42024009
42
24
9
and having turned back from the tomb told all these things to the eleven, and to all the rest.
field: 42024010
42
24
10
And it was the Magdalene Mary, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and the other women with them, who told unto the apostles these things,
field: 42024011
42
24
11
and their sayings appeared before them as idle talk, and they were not believing them.
field: 42024012
42
24
12
And Peter having risen, did run to the tomb, and having stooped down he seeth the linen clothes lying alone, and he went away to his own home, wondering at that which was come to pass.
field: 42024013
42
24
13
And, lo, two of them were going on during that day to a village, distant sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, the name of which `is' Emmaus,
field: 42024014
42
24
14
and they were conversing with one another about all these things that have happened.
field: 42024015
42
24
15
And it came to pass in their conversing and reasoning together, that Jesus himself, having come nigh, was going on with them,
field: 42024016
42
24
16
and their eyes were holden so as not to know him,
field: 42024017
42
24
17
and he said unto them, `What `are' these words that ye exchange with one another, walking, and ye are sad?'
field: 42024018
42
24
18
And the one, whose name was Cleopas, answering, said unto him, `Art thou alone such a stranger in Jerusalem, that thou hast not known the things that came to pass in it in these days?'
field: 42024019
42
24
19
And he said to them, `What things?' And they said to him, `The things about Jesus of Nazareth, who became a man -- a prophet -- powerful in deed and word, before God and all the people,
field: 42024020
42
24
20
how also the chief priests and our rulers did deliver him up to a judgment of death, and crucified him;
field: 42024021
42
24
21
and we were hoping that he it is who is about to redeem Israel, and also with all these things, this third day is passing to-day, since these things happened.
field: 42024022
42
24
22
`And certain women of ours also astonished us, coming early to the tomb,
field: 42024023
42
24
23
and not having found his body, they came, saying also to have seen an apparition of messengers, who say he is alive,
field: 42024024
42
24
24
and certain of those with us went away unto the tomb, and found as even the women said, and him they saw not.'
field: 42024025
42
24
25
And he said unto them, `O inconsiderate and slow in heart, to believe on all that the prophets spake!
field: 42024026
42
24
26
Was it not behoving the Christ these things to suffer, and to enter into his glory?'
field: 42024027
42
24
27
and having begun from Moses, and from all the prophets, he was expounding to them in all the Writings the things about himself.
field: 42024028
42
24
28
And they came nigh to the village whither they were going, and he made an appearance of going on further,
field: 42024029
42
24
29
and they constrained him, saying, `Remain with us, for it is toward evening,' and the day did decline, and he went in to remain with them.
field: 42024030
42
24
30
And it came to pass, in his reclining (at meat) with them, having taken the bread, he blessed, and having broken, he was giving to them,
field: 42024031
42
24
31
and their eyes were opened, and they recognized him, and he became unseen by them.
field: 42024032
42
24
32
And they said one to another, `Was not our heart burning within us, as he was speaking to us in the way, and as he was opening up to us the Writings?'
field: 42024033
42
24
33
And they, having risen up the same hour, turned back to Jerusalem, and found gathered together the eleven, and those with them,
field: 42024034
42
24
34
saying -- `The Lord was raised indeed, and was seen by Simon;'
field: 42024035
42
24
35
and they were telling the things in the way, and how he was made known to them in the breaking of the bread,
field: 42024036
42
24
36
and as they are speaking these things, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith to them, `Peace -- to you;'
field: 42024037
42
24
37
and being amazed, and becoming affrighted, they were thinking themselves to see a spirit.
field: 42024038
42
24
38
And he said to them, `Why are ye troubled? and wherefore do reasonings come up in your hearts?
field: 42024039
42
24
39
see my hands and my feet, that I am he; handle me and see, because a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me having.'
field: 42024040
42
24
40
And having said this, he shewed to them the hands and the feet,
field: 42024041
42
24
41
and while they are not believing from the joy, and wondering, he said to them, `Have ye anything here to eat?'
field: 42024042
42
24
42
and they gave to him part of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb,
field: 42024043
42
24
43
and having taken, he did eat before them,
field: 42024044
42
24
44
and he said to them, `These `are' the words that I spake unto you, being yet with you, that it behoveth to be fulfilled all the things that are written in the Law of Moses, and the Prophets, and the Psalms, about me.'
field: 42024045
42
24
45
Then opened he up their understanding to understand the Writings,
field: 42024046
42
24
46
and he said to them -- `Thus it hath been written, and thus it was behoving the Christ to suffer, and to rise out of the dead the third day,
field: 42024047
42
24
47
and reformation and remission of sins to be proclaimed in his name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem:
field: 42024048
42
24
48
and ye -- ye are witnesses of these things.
field: 42024049
42
24
49
`And, lo, I do send the promise of my Father upon you, but ye -- abide ye in the city of Jerusalem till ye be clothed with power from on high.'
field: 42024050
42
24
50
And he led them forth without -- unto Bethany, and having lifted up his hands he did bless them,
field: 42024051
42
24
51
and it came to pass, in his blessing them, he was parted from them, and was borne up to the heaven;
field: 42024052
42
24
52
and they, having bowed before him, did turn back to Jerusalem with great joy,
field: 42024053
42
24
53
and were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.
field: 43001001

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God;
field: 43001002
43
1
2
this one was in the beginning with God;
field: 43001003
43
1
3
all things through him did happen, and without him happened not even one thing that hath happened.
field: 43001004
43
1
4
In him was life, and the life was the light of men,
field: 43001005
43
1
5
and the light in the darkness did shine, and the darkness did not perceive it.
field: 43001006
43
1
6
There came a man -- having been sent from God -- whose name `is' John,
field: 43001007
43
1
7
this one came for testimony, that he might testify about the Light, that all might believe through him;
field: 43001008
43
1
8
that one was not the Light, but -- that he might testify about the Light.
field: 43001009
43
1
9
He was the true Light, which doth enlighten every man, coming to the world;
field: 43001010
43
1
10
in the world he was, and the world through him was made, and the world did not know him:
field: 43001011
43
1
11
to his own things he came, and his own people did not receive him;
field: 43001012
43
1
12
but as many as did receive him to them he gave authority to become sons of God -- to those believing in his name,
field: 43001013
43
1
13
who -- not of blood nor of a will of flesh, nor of a will of man but -- of God were begotten.
field: 43001014
43
1
14
And the Word became flesh, and did tabernacle among us, and we beheld his glory, glory as of an only begotten of a father, full of grace and truth.
field: 43001015
43
1
15
John doth testify concerning him, and hath cried, saying, `This was he of whom I said, He who after me is coming, hath come before me, for he was before me;'
field: 43001016
43
1
16
and out of his fulness did we all receive, and grace over-against grace;
field: 43001017
43
1
17
for the law through Moses was given, the grace and the truth through Jesus Christ did come;
field: 43001018
43
1
18
God no one hath ever seen; the only begotten Son, who is on the bosom of the Father -- he did declare.
field: 43001019
43
1
19
And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent out of Jerusalem priests and Levites, that they might question him, `Who art thou?'
field: 43001020
43
1
20
and he confessed and did not deny, and confessed -- `I am not the Christ.'
field: 43001021
43
1
21
And they questioned him, `What then? Elijah art thou?' and he saith, `I am not.' -- `The prophet art thou?' and he answered, `No.'
field: 43001022
43
1
22
They said then to him, `Who art thou, that we may give an answer to those sending us? what dost thou say concerning thyself?'
field: 43001023
43
1
23
He said, `I `am' a voice of one crying in the wilderness: Make straight the way of the Lord, as said Isaiah the prophet.'
field: 43001024
43
1
24
And those sent were of the Pharisees,
field: 43001025
43
1
25
and they questioned him and said to him, `Why, then, dost thou baptize, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?'
field: 43001026
43
1
26
John answered them, saying, `I baptize with water, but in midst of you he hath stood whom ye have not known, this one it is who is coming after me, who hath been before me,
field: 43001027
43
1
27
of whom I am not worthy that I may loose the cord of his sandal.'
field: 43001028
43
1
28
These things came to pass in Bethabara, beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing,
field: 43001029
43
1
29
on the morrow John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, `Lo, the Lamb of God, who is taking away the sin of the world;
field: 43001030
43
1
30
this is he concerning whom I said, After me doth come a man, who hath come before me, because he was before me:
field: 43001031
43
1
31
and I knew him not, but, that he might be manifested to Israel, because of this I came with the water baptizing.
field: 43001032
43
1
32
And John testified, saying -- `I have seen the Spirit coming down, as a dove, out of heaven, and it remained on him;
field: 43001033
43
1
33
and I did not know him, but he who sent me to baptize with water, He said to me, On whomsoever thou mayst see the Spirit coming down, and remaining on him, this is he who is baptizing with the Holy Spirit;
field: 43001034
43
1
34
and I have seen, and have testified, that this is the Son of God.'
field: 43001035
43
1
35
On the morrow, again, John was standing, and two of his disciples,
field: 43001036
43
1
36
and having looked on Jesus walking, he saith, `Lo, the Lamb of God;'
field: 43001037
43
1
37
and the two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.
field: 43001038
43
1
38
And Jesus having turned, and having beheld them following, saith to them, `What seek ye?' and they said to them, `Rabbi, (which is, being interpreted, Teacher,) where remainest thou?'
field: 43001039
43
1
39
He saith to them, `Come and see;' they came, and saw where he doth remain, and with him they remained that day and the hour was about the tenth.
field: 43001040
43
1
40
Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard from John, and followed him;
field: 43001041
43
1
41
this one doth first find his own brother Simon, and saith to him, `We have found the Messiah,' (which is, being interpreted, The Anointed,)
field: 43001042
43
1
42
and he brought him unto Jesus: and having looked upon him, Jesus saith, `Thou art Simon, the son of Jonas, thou shalt be called Cephas,' (which is interpreted, A rock.)
field: 43001043
43
1
43
On the morrow, he willed to go forth to Galilee, and he findeth Philip, and saith to him, `Be following me.'
field: 43001044
43
1
44
And Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter;
field: 43001045
43
1
45
Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, `Him of whom Moses wrote in the Law, and the prophets, we have found, Jesus the son of Joseph, who `is' from Nazareth;'
field: 43001046
43
1
46
and Nathanael said to him, `Out of Nazareth is any good thing able to be?' Philip said to him, `Come and see.'
field: 43001047
43
1
47
Jesus saw Nathanael coming unto him, and he saith concerning him, `Lo, truly an Israelite, in whom guile is not;'
field: 43001048
43
1
48
Nathanael saith to him, `Whence me dost thou know?' Jesus answered and said to him, `Before Philip's calling thee -- thou being under the fig-tree -- I saw thee.'
field: 43001049
43
1
49
Nathanael answered and saith to him, `Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the king of Israel.'
field: 43001050
43
1
50
Jesus answered and said to him, `Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, thou dost believe; greater things than these thou shalt see;'
field: 43001051
43
1
51
and he saith to him, `Verily, verily, I say to you, henceforth ye shall see the heaven opened, and the messengers of God going up and coming down upon the Son of Man.'
field: 43002001
43

And the third day a marriage happened in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there,
field: 43002002
43
2
2
and also Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage;
field: 43002003
43
2
3
and wine having failed, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, `Wine they have not;'
field: 43002004
43
2
4
Jesus saith to her, `What -- to me and to thee, woman? not yet is mine hour come.'
field: 43002005
43
2
5
His mother saith to the ministrants, `Whatever he may say to you -- do.'
field: 43002006
43
2
6
And there were there six water-jugs of stone, placed according to the purifying of the Jews, holding each two or three measures.
field: 43002007
43
2
7
Jesus saith to them, `Fill the water-jugs with water;' and they filled them -- unto the brim;
field: 43002008
43
2
8
and he saith to them, `Draw out, now, and bear to the director of the apartment;' and they bare.
field: 43002009
43
2
9
And as the director of the apartment tasted the water become wine, and knew not whence it is, (but the ministrants knew, who have drawn the water,) the director of the feast doth call the bridegroom,
field: 43002010
43
2
10
and saith to him, `Every man, at first, the good wine doth set forth; and when they may have drunk freely, then the inferior; thou didst keep the good wine till now.'
field: 43002011
43
2
11
This beginning of the signs did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory, and his disciples believed in him;
field: 43002012
43
2
12
after this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples; and there they remained not many days.
field: 43002013
43
2
13
And the passover of the Jews was nigh, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
field: 43002014
43
2
14
and he found in the temple those selling oxen, and sheep, and doves, and the money-changers sitting,
field: 43002015
43
2
15
and having made a whip of small cords, he put all forth out of the temple, also the sheep, and the oxen; and of the money-changers he poured out the coins, and the tables he overthrew,
field: 43002016
43
2
16
and to those selling the doves he said, `Take these things hence; make not the house of my Father a house of merchandise.'
field: 43002017
43
2
17
And his disciples remembered that it is written, `The zeal of Thy house did eat me up;'
field: 43002018
43
2
18
the Jews then answered and said to him, `What sign dost thou shew to us -- that thou dost these things?'
field: 43002019
43
2
19
Jesus answered and said to them, `Destroy this sanctuary, and in three days I will raise it up.'
field: 43002020
43
2
20
The Jews, therefore, said, `Forty and six years was this sanctuary building, and wilt thou in three days raise it up?'
field: 43002021
43
2
21
but he spake concerning the sanctuary of his body;
field: 43002022
43
2
22
when, then, he was raised out of the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this to them, and they believed the Writing, and the word that Jesus said.
field: 43002023
43
2
23
And as he was in Jerusalem, in the passover, in the feast, many believed in his name, beholding his signs that he was doing;
field: 43002024
43
2
24
and Jesus himself was not trusting himself to them, because of his knowing all `men',
field: 43002025
43
2
25
and because he had no need that any should testify concerning man, for he himself was knowing what was in man.
field: 43003001
43

1
And there was a man of the Pharisees, Nicodemus his name, a ruler of the Jews,
field: 43003002
43
3
2
this one came unto him by night, and said to him, `Rabbi, we have known that from God thou hast come -- a teacher, for no one these signs is able to do that thou dost, if God may not be with him.'
field: 43003003
43
3
3
Jesus answered and said to him, `Verily, verily, I say to thee, If any one may not be born from above, he is not able to see the reign of God;'
field: 43003004
43
3
4
Nicodemus saith unto him, `How is a man able to be born, being old? is he able into the womb of his mother a second time to enter, and to be born?'
field: 43003005
43
3
5
Jesus answered, `Verily, verily, I say to thee, If any one may not be born of water, and the Spirit, he is not able to enter into the reign of God;
field: 43003006
43
3
6
that which hath been born of the flesh is flesh, and that which hath been born of the Spirit is spirit.
field: 43003007
43
3
7
`Thou mayest not wonder that I said to thee, It behoveth you to be born from above;
field: 43003008
43
3
8
the Spirit where he willeth doth blow, and his voice thou dost hear, but thou hast not known whence he cometh, and whither he goeth; thus is every one who hath been born of the Spirit.'
field: 43003009
43
3
9
Nicodemus answered and said to him, `How are these things able to happen?'
field: 43003010
43
3
10
Jesus answered and said to him, `Thou art the teacher of Israel -- and these things thou dost not know!
field: 43003011
43
3
11
`Verily, verily, I say to thee -- What we have known we speak, and what we have seen we testify, and our testimony ye do not receive;
field: 43003012
43
3
12
if the earthly things I said to you, and ye do not believe, how, if I shall say to you the heavenly things, will ye believe?
field: 43003013
43
3
13
and no one hath gone up to the heaven, except he who out of the heaven came down -- the Son of Man who is in the heaven.
field: 43003014
43
3
14
`And as Moses did lift up the serpent in the wilderness, so it behoveth the Son of Man to be lifted up,
field: 43003015
43
3
15
that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during,
field: 43003016
43
3
16
for God did so love the world, that His Son -- the only begotten -- He gave, that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during.
field: 43003017
43
3
17
For God did not send His Son to the world that he may judge the world, but that the world may be saved through him;
field: 43003018
43
3
18
he who is believing in him is not judged, but he who is not believing hath been judged already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
field: 43003019
43
3
19
`And this is the judgment, that the light hath come to the world, and men did love the darkness rather than the light, for their works were evil;
field: 43003020
43
3
20
for every one who is doing wicked things hateth the light, and doth not come unto the light, that his works may not be detected;
field: 43003021
43
3
21
but he who is doing the truth doth come to the light, that his works may be manifested, that in God they are having been wrought.'
field: 43003022
43
3
22
After these things came Jesus and his disciples to the land of Judea, and there he did tarry with them, and was baptizing;
field: 43003023
43
3
23
and John was also baptizing in Aenon, nigh to Salem, because there were many waters there, and they were coming and were being baptized --
field: 43003024
43
3
24
for John was not yet cast into the prison --
field: 43003025
43
3
25
there arose then a question from the disciples of John with `some' Jews about purifying,
field: 43003026
43
3
26
and they came unto John, and said to him, `Rabbi, he who was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou didst testify, lo, this one is baptizing, and all are coming unto him.'
field: 43003027
43
3
27
John answered and said, `A man is not able to receive anything, if it may not have been given him from the heaven;
field: 43003028
43
3
28
ye yourselves do testify to me that I said, I am not the Christ, but, that I am having been sent before him;
field: 43003029
43
3
29
he who is having the bride is bridegroom, and the friend of the bridegroom, who is standing and hearing him, with joy doth rejoice because of the voice of the bridegroom; this, then, my joy hath been fulfilled.
field: 43003030
43
3
30
`Him it behoveth to increase, and me to become less;
field: 43003031
43
3
31
he who from above is coming is above all; he who is from the earth, from the earth he is, and from the earth he speaketh; he who from the heaven is coming is above all.
field: 43003032
43
3
32
`And what he hath seen and heard this he doth testify, and his testimony none receiveth;
field: 43003033
43
3
33
he who is receiving his testimony did seal that God is true;
field: 43003034
43
3
34
for he whom God sent, the sayings of God he speaketh; for not by measure doth God give the Spirit;
field: 43003035
43
3
35
the Father doth love the Son, and all things hath given into his hand;
field: 43003036
43
3
36
he who is believing in the Son, hath life age-during; and he who is not believing the Son, shall not see life, but the wrath of God doth remain upon him.'
field: 43004001
43
4
1
When therefore the Lord knew that the Pharisees heard that Jesus more disciples doth make and baptize than John,
field: 43004002
43
4
2
(though indeed Jesus himself was not baptizing, but his disciples,)
field: 43004003
43
4
3
he left Judea and went away again to Galilee,
field: 43004004
43
4
4
and it was behoving him to go through Samaria.
field: 43004005
43
4
5
He cometh, therefore, to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near to the place that Jacob gave to Joseph his son;
field: 43004006
43
4
6
and there was there a well of Jacob. Jesus therefore having been weary from the journeying, was sitting thus on the well; it was as it were the sixth hour;
field: 43004007
43
4
7
there cometh a woman out of Samaria to draw water. Jesus saith to her, `Give me to drink;'
field: 43004008
43
4
8
for his disciples were gone away to the city, that they may buy victuals;
field: 43004009
43
4
9
the Samaritan woman therefore saith to him, `How dost thou, being a Jew, ask drink from me, being a Samaritan woman?' for Jews have no dealing with Samaritans.
field: 43004010
43
4
10
Jesus answered and said to her, `If thou hadst known the gift of God, and who it is who is saying to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldest have asked him, and he would have given thee living water.'
field: 43004011
43
4
11
The woman saith to him, `Sir, thou hast not even a vessel to draw with, and the well is deep; whence, then, hast thou the living water?
field: 43004012
43
4
12
Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who did give us the well, and himself out of it did drink, and his sons, and his cattle?'
field: 43004013
43
4
13
Jesus answered and said to her, `Every one who is drinking of this water shall thirst again;
field: 43004014
43
4
14
but whoever may drink of the water that I will give him, may not thirst -- to the age; and the water that I will give him shall become in him a well of water, springing up to life age-during.'
field: 43004015
43
4
15
The woman saith unto him, `Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.'
field: 43004016
43
4
16
Jesus saith to her, `Go, call thy husband, and come hither;'
field: 43004017
43
4
17
the woman answered and said, `I have not a husband.' Jesus saith to her, `Well didst thou say -- A husband I have not;
field: 43004018
43
4
18
for five husbands thou hast had, and, now, he whom thou hast is not thy husband; this hast thou said truly.'
field: 43004019
43
4
19
The woman saith to him, `Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet;
field: 43004020
43
4
20
our fathers in this mountain did worship, and ye -- ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where it behoveth to worship.'
field: 43004021
43
4
21
Jesus saith to her, `Woman, believe me, that there doth come an hour, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father;
field: 43004022
43
4
22
ye worship what ye have not known; we worship what we have known, because the salvation is of the Jews;
field: 43004023
43
4
23
but, there cometh an hour, and it now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father also doth seek such to worship him;
field: 43004024
43
4
24
God `is' a Spirit, and those worshipping Him, in spirit and truth it doth behove to worship.'
field: 43004025
43
4
25
The woman saith to him, `I have known that Messiah doth come, who is called Christ, when that one may come, he will tell us all things;'
field: 43004026
43

26
Jesus saith to her, `I am `he', who am speaking to thee.'
field: 43004027
43
4
27
And upon this came his disciples, and were wondering that with a woman he was speaking, no one, however, said, `What seekest thou?' or `Why speakest thou with her?'
field: 43004028
43
4
28
The woman then left her water-jug, and went away to the city, and saith to the men,
field: 43004029
43
4
29
`Come, see a man, who told me all things -- as many as I did; is this the Christ?'
field: 43004030
43
4
30
They went forth therefore out of the city, and were coming unto him.
field: 43004031
43
4
31
And in the meanwhile his disciples were asking him, saying, `Rabbi, eat;'
field: 43004032
43
4
32
and he said to them, `I have food to eat that ye have not known.'
field: 43004033
43
4
33
The disciples then said one to another, `Did any one bring him anything to eat?'
field: 43004034
43
4
34
Jesus saith to them, `My food is, that I may do the will of Him who sent me, and may finish His work;
field: 43004035
43
4
35
do not say that it is yet four months, and the harvest cometh; lo, I say to you, Lift up your eyes, and see the fields, that they are white unto harvest already.
field: 43004036
43
4
36
`And he who is reaping doth receive a reward, and doth gather fruit to life age-during, that both he who is sowing and he who is reaping may rejoice together;
field: 43004037
43
4
37
for in this the saying is the true one, that one is the sower and another the reaper.
field: 43004038
43
4
38
I sent you to reap that on which ye have not laboured; others laboured, and ye into their labour have entered.
field: 43004039
43
4
39
And from that city many believed in him, of the Samaritans, because of the word of the woman testifying, -- `He told me all things -- as many as I did.'
field: 43004040
43
4
40
When, then, the Samaritans came unto him, they were asking him to remain with them, and he remained there two days;
field: 43004041
43
4
41
and many more did believe because of his word,
field: 43004042
43
4
42
and said to the woman -- `No more because of thy speaking do we believe; for we ourselves have heard and known that this is truly the Saviour of the world -- the Christ.'
field: 43004043
43
4
43
And after the two days he went forth thence, and went away to Galilee,
field: 43004044
43
4
44
for Jesus himself testified that a prophet in his own country shall not have honour;
field: 43004045
43
4
45
when then, he came to Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all things that he did in Jerusalem in the feast -- for they also went to the feast.
field: 43004046
43
4
46
Jesus came, therefore, again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine, and there was a certain courtier, whose son was ailing in Capernaum,
field: 43004047
43
4
47
he, having heard that Jesus is come out of Judea to Galilee, went away unto him, and was asking him that he may come down and may heal his son, for he was about to die.
field: 43004048
43
4
48
Jesus then said unto him, `If signs and wonders ye may not see, ye will not believe.'
field: 43004049
43
4
49
The courtier saith unto him, `Sir, come down before my child die;'
field: 43004050
43
4
50
Jesus saith to him, `Be going on; thy son doth live.' And the man believed the word that Jesus said to him, and was going on,
field: 43004051
43
4
51
and he now going down, his servants met him, and told, saying -- `Thy child doth live;'
field: 43004052
43
4
52
he inquired then of them the hour in which he became better, and they said to him -- `Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him;'
field: 43004053
43
4
53
then the father knew that `it was' in that hour in which Jesus said to him -- `Thy son doth live,' and he himself believed, and his whole house;
field: 43004054
43
4
54
this again a second sign did Jesus, having come out of Judea to Galilee.
field: 43005001
43
5
1
After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
field: 43005002
43
5
2
and there is in Jerusalem by the sheep-`gate' a pool that is called in Hebrew Bethesda, having five porches,
field: 43005003
43
5
3
in these were lying a great multitude of the ailing, blind, lame, withered, waiting for the moving of the water,
field: 43005004
43
5
4
for a messenger at a set time was going down in the pool, and was troubling the water, the first then having gone in after the troubling of the water, became whole of whatever sickness he was held.
field: 43005005
43
5
5
and there was a certain man there being in ailment thirty and eight years,
field: 43005006
43
5
6
him Jesus having seen lying, and having known that he is already a long time, he saith to him, `Dost thou wish to become whole?'
field: 43005007
43
5
7
The ailing man answered him, `Sir, I have no man, that, when the water may be troubled, he may put me into the pool, and while I am coming, another doth go down before me.'
field: 43005008
43
5
8
Jesus saith to him, `Rise, take up thy couch, and be walking;'
field: 43005009
43
5
9
and immediately the man became whole, and he took up his couch, and was walking, and it was a sabbath on that day,
field: 43005010
43
5
10
the Jews then said to him that hath been healed, `It is a sabbath; it is not lawful to thee to take up the couch.'
field: 43005011
43
5
11
He answered them, `He who made me whole -- that one said to me, Take up thy couch, and be walking;'
field: 43005012
43
5
12
they questioned him, then, `Who is the man who is saying to thee, Take up thy couch and be walking?'
field: 43005013
43
5
13
But he that was healed had not known who he is, for Jesus did move away, a multitude being in the place.
field: 43005014
43
5
14
After these things, Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said to him, `Lo, thou hast become whole; sin no more, lest something worse may happen to thee.'
field: 43005015
43
5
15
The man went away, and told the Jews that it is Jesus who made him whole,
field: 43005016
43
5
16
and because of this were the Jews persecuting Jesus, and seeking to kill him, because these things he was doing on a sabbath.
field: 43005017
43
5
17
And Jesus answered them, `My Father till now doth work, and I work;'
field: 43005018
43
5
18
because of this, then, were the Jews seeking the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the sabbath, but he also called God his own Father, making himself equal to God.
field: 43005019
43
5
19
Jesus therefore responded and said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, The Son is not able to do anything of himself, if he may not see the Father doing anything; for whatever things He may do, these also the Son in like manner doth;
field: 43005020
43
5
20
for the Father doth love the Son, and doth shew to him all things that He himself doth; and greater works than these He will shew him, that ye may wonder.
field: 43005021
43
5
21
`For, as the Father doth raise the dead, and doth make alive, so also the Son doth make alive whom he willeth;
field: 43005022
43
5
22
for neither doth the Father judge any one, but all the judgment He hath given to the Son,
field: 43005023
43
5
23
that all may honour the Son according as they honour the Father; he who is not honouring the Son, doth not honour the Father who sent him.
field: 43005024
43
5
24
`Verily, verily, I say to you -- He who is hearing my word, and is believing Him who sent me, hath life age-during, and to judgment he doth not come, but hath passed out of the death to the life.
field: 43005025
43
5
25
`Verily, verily, I say to you -- There cometh an hour, and it now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and those having heard shall live;
field: 43005026
43
5
26
for, as the Father hath life in himself, so He gave also to the Son to have life in himself,
field: 43005027
43
5
27
and authority He gave him also to do judgment, because he is Son of Man.
field: 43005028
43
5
28
`Wonder not at this, because there doth come an hour in which all those in the tombs shall hear his voice,
field: 43005029
43
5
29
and they shall come forth; those who did the good things to a rising again of life, and those who practised the evil things to a rising again of judgment.
field: 43005030
43
5
30
`I am not able of myself to do anything; according as I hear I judge, and my judgment is righteous, because I seek not my own will, but the will of the Father who sent me.
field: 43005031
43
5
31
`If I testify concerning myself, my testimony is not true;
field: 43005032
43
5
32
another there is who is testifying concerning me, and I have known that the testimony that he doth testify concerning me is true;
field: 43005033
43
5
33
ye have sent unto John, and he hath testified to the truth.
field: 43005034
43
5
34
`But I do not receive testimony from man, but these things I say that ye may be saved;
field: 43005035
43
5
35
he was the burning and shining lamp, and ye did will to be glad, for an hour, in his light.
field: 43005036
43
5
36
`But I have the testimony greater than John's, for the works that the Father gave me, that I might finish them, the works themselves that I do, they testify concerning me, that the Father hath sent me.
field: 43005037
43
5
37
`And the Father who sent me Himself hath testified concerning me; ye have neither heard His voice at any time, nor His appearance have ye seen;
field: 43005038
43
5
38
and His word ye have not remaining in you, because whom He sent, him ye do not believe.
field: 43005039
43
5
39
`Ye search the Writings, because ye think in them to have life age-during, and these are they that are testifying concerning me;
field: 43005040
43
5
40
and ye do not will to come unto me, that ye may have life;
field: 43005041
43
5
41
glory from man I do not receive,
field: 43005042
43
5
42
but I have known you, that the love of God ye have not in yourselves.
field: 43005043
43
5
43
`I have come in the name of my Father, and ye do not receive me; if another may come in his own name, him ye will receive;
field: 43005044
43
5
44
how are ye able -- ye -- to believe, glory from one another receiving, and the glory that `is' from God alone ye seek not?
field: 43005045
43
5
45
`Do not think that I will accuse you unto the Father; there is who is accusing you, Moses -- in whom ye have hoped;
field: 43005046
43
5
46
for if ye were believing Moses, ye would have been believing me, for he wrote concerning me;
field: 43005047
43
5
47
but if his writings ye believe not, how shall ye believe my sayings?'
field: 43006001
43
6
1
After these things Jesus went away beyond the sea of Galilee (of Tiberias),
field: 43006002
43
6
2
and there was following him a great multitude, because they were seeing his signs that he was doing on the ailing;
field: 43006003
43
6
3
and Jesus went up to the mount, and he was there sitting with his disciples,
field: 43006004
43
6
4
and the passover was nigh, the feast of the Jews.
field: 43006005
43
6
5
Jesus then having lifted up `his' eyes and having seen that a great multitude doth come to him, saith unto Philip, `Whence shall we buy loaves, that these may eat?' --
field: 43006006
43
6
6
and this he said, trying him, for he himself had known what he was about to do.
field: 43006007
43
6
7
Philip answered him, `Two hundred denaries' worth of loaves are not sufficient to them, that each of them may receive some little;'
field: 43006008
43
6
8
one of his disciples -- Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter -- saith to him,
field: 43006009
43
6
9
`There is one little lad here who hath five barley loaves, and two fishes, but these -- what are they to so many?'
field: 43006010
43
6
10
And Jesus said, `Make the men to sit down;' and there was much grass in the place, the men then sat down, in number, as it were, five thousand,
field: 43006011
43
6
11
and Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those reclining, in like manner, also of the little fishes as much as they wished.
field: 43006012
43
6
12
And when they were filled, he saith to his disciples, `Gather together the broken pieces that are over, that nothing may be lost;'
field: 43006013
43
6
13
they gathered together, therefore, and filled twelve hand-baskets with broken pieces, from the five barley loaves that were over to those having eaten.
field: 43006014
43
6
14
The men, then, having seen the sign that Jesus did, said -- `This is truly the Prophet, who is coming to the world;'
field: 43006015
43
6
15
Jesus, therefore, having known that they are about to come, and to take him by force that they may make him king, retired again to the mountain himself alone.
field: 43006016
43
6
16
And when evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,
field: 43006017
43
6
17
and having entered into the boat, they were going over the sea to Capernaum, and darkness had already come, and Jesus had not come unto them,
field: 43006018
43
6
18
the sea also -- a great wind blowing -- was being raised,
field: 43006019
43
6
19
having pushed onwards, therefore, about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and coming nigh to the boat, and they were afraid;
field: 43006020
43
6
20
and he saith to them, `I am `he', be not afraid;'
field: 43006021
43
6
21
they were willing then to receive him into the boat, and immediately the boat came unto the land to which they were going.
field: 43006022
43
6
22
On the morrow, the multitude that was standing on the other side of the sea, having seen that there was no other little boat there except one -- that into which his disciples entered -- and that Jesus went not in with his disciples into the little boat, but his disciples went away alone,
field: 43006023
43
6
23
(and other little boats came from Tiberias, nigh the place where they did eat the bread, the Lord having given thanks),
field: 43006024
43
6
24
when therefore the multitude saw that Jesus is not there, nor his disciples, they also themselves did enter into the boats, and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus;
field: 43006025
43
6
25
and having found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, `Rabbi, when hast thou come hither?'
field: 43006026
43
6
26
Jesus answered them and said, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were satisfied;
field: 43006027
43
6
27
work not for the food that is perishing, but for the food that is remaining to life age-during, which the Son of Man will give to you, for him did the Father seal -- `even' God.'
field: 43006028
43
6
28
They said therefore unto him, `What may we do that we may work the works of God?'
field: 43006029
43
6
29
Jesus answered and said to them, `This is the work of God, that ye may believe in him whom He did send.'
field: 43006030
43
6
30
They said therefore to him, `What sign, then, dost thou, that we may see and may believe thee? what dost thou work?
field: 43006031
43
6
31
our fathers the manna did eat in the wilderness, according as it is having been written, Bread out of the heaven He gave them to eat.'
field: 43006032
43
6
32
Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread out of the heaven; but my Father doth give you the true bread out of the heaven;
field: 43006033
43
6
33
for the bread of God is that which is coming down out of the heaven, and giving life to the world.'
field: 43006034
43
6
34
They said, therefore, unto him, `Sir, always give us this bread.'
field: 43006035
43
6
35
And Jesus said to them, `I am the bread of the life; he who is coming unto me may not hunger, and he who is believing in me may not thirst -- at any time;
field: 43006036
43
6
36
but I said to you, that ye also have seen me, and ye believe not;
field: 43006037
43
6
37
all that the Father doth give to me will come unto me; and him who is coming unto me, I may in no wise cast without,
field: 43006038
43
6
38
because I have come down out of the heaven, not that I may do my will, but the will of Him who sent me.
field: 43006039
43
6
39
`And this is the will of the Father who sent me, that all that He hath given to me I may not lose of it, but may raise it up in the last day;
field: 43006040
43
6
40
and this is the will of Him who sent me, that every one who is beholding the Son, and is believing in him, may have life age-during, and I will raise him up in the last day.'
field: 43006041
43
6
41
The Jews, therefore, were murmuring at him, because he said, `I am the bread that came down out of the heaven;'
field: 43006042
43
6
42
and they said, `Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have known? how then saith this one -- Out of the heaven I have come down?'
field: 43006043
43
6
43
Jesus answered, therefore, and said to them, `Murmur not one with another;
field: 43006044
43
6
44
no one is able to come unto me, if the Father who sent me may not draw him, and I will raise him up in the last day;
field: 43006045
43
6
45
it is having been written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God; every one therefore who heard from the Father, and learned, cometh to me;
field: 43006046
43
6
46
not that any one hath seen the Father, except he who is from God, he hath seen the Father.
field: 43006047
43
6
47
`Verily, verily, I say to you, He who is believing in me, hath life age-during;
field: 43006048
43
6
48
I am the bread of the life;
field: 43006049
43
6
49
your fathers did eat the manna in the wilderness, and they died;
field: 43006050
43
6
50
this is the bread that out of the heaven is coming down, that any one may eat of it, and not die.
field: 43006051
43
6
51
`I am the living bread that came down out of the heaven; if any one may eat of this bread he shall live -- to the age; and the bread also that I will give is my flesh, that I will give for the life of the world.'
field: 43006052
43
6
52
The Jews, therefore, were striving with one another, saying, `How is this one able to give us `his' flesh to eat?'
field: 43006053
43
6
53
Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, If ye may not eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and may not drink his blood, ye have no life in yourselves;
field: 43006054
43
6
54
he who is eating my flesh, and is drinking my blood, hath life age-during, and I will raise him up in the last day;
field: 43006055
43
6
55
for my flesh truly is food, and my blood truly is drink;
field: 43006056
43
6
56
he who is eating my flesh, and is drinking my blood, doth remain in me, and I in him.
field: 43006057
43
6
57
`According as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, he also who is eating me, even that one shall live because of me;
field: 43006058
43
6
58
this is the bread that came down out of the heaven; not as your fathers did eat the manna, and died; he who is eating this bread shall live -- to the age.'
field: 43006059
43
6
59
These things he said in a synagogue, teaching in Capernaum;
field: 43006060
43
6
60
many, therefore, of his disciples having heard, said, `This word is hard; who is able to hear it?'
field: 43006061
43
6
61
And Jesus having known in himself that his disciples are murmuring about this, said to them, `Doth this stumble you?
field: 43006062
43
6
62
if then ye may behold the Son of Man going up where he was before?
field: 43006063
43
6
63
the spirit it is that is giving life; the flesh doth not profit anything; the sayings that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life;
field: 43006064
43
6
64
but there are certain of you who do not believe;' for Jesus had known from the beginning who they are who are not believing, and who is he who will deliver him up,
field: 43006065
43
6
65
and he said, `Because of this I have said to you -- No one is able to come unto me, if it may not have been given him from my Father.'
field: 43006066
43
6
66
From this `time' many of his disciples went away backward, and were no more walking with him,
field: 43006067
43
6
67
Jesus, therefore, said to the twelve, `Do ye also wish to go away?'
field: 43006068
43
6
68
Simon Peter, therefore, answered him, `Sir, unto whom shall we go? thou hast sayings of life age-during;
field: 43006069
43
6
69
and we have believed, and we have known, that thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.'
field: 43006070
43
6
70
Jesus answered them, `Did not I choose you -- the twelve? and of you -- one is a devil.
field: 43006071

And he spake of Judas, Simon's `son', Iscariot, for he was about to deliver him up, being one of the twelve.
field: 43007001
43

1
And Jesus was walking after these things in Galilee, for he did not wish to walk in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill him,
field: 43007002
43
7
2
and the feast of the Jews was nigh -- that of tabernacles --
field: 43007003
43
7
3
his brethren, therefore, said unto him, `Remove hence, and go away to Judea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works that thou dost;
field: 43007004
43
7
4
for no one in secret doth anything, and himself seeketh to be in public; if thou dost these things -- manifest thyself to the world;'
field: 43007005
43
7
5
for not even were his brethren believing in him.
field: 43007006
43
7
6
Jesus, therefore, saith to them, `My time is not yet present, but your time is always ready;
field: 43007007
43
7
7
the world is not able to hate you, but me it doth hate, because I testify concerning it that its works are evil.
field: 43007008
43
7
8
Ye -- go ye up to this feast; I do not yet go up to this feast, because my time hath not yet been fulfilled;'
field: 43007009
43
7
9
and saying these things to them, he remained in Galilee.
field: 43007010
43
7
10
And when his brethren went up, then also he himself went up to the feast, not manifestly, but as in secret;
field: 43007011
43
7
11
the Jews, therefore, were seeking him, in the feast, and said, `Where is that one?'
field: 43007012
43
7
12
and there was much murmuring about him among the multitudes, some indeed said -- `He is good;' and others said, `No, but he leadeth astray the multitude;'
field: 43007013
43
7
13
no one, however, was speaking freely about him, through fear of the Jews.
field: 43007014
43
7
14
And it being now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up to the temple, and he was teaching,
field: 43007015
43
7
15
and the Jews were wondering, saying, `How hath this one known letters -- not having learned?'
field: 43007016
43
7
16
Jesus answered them and said, `My teaching is not mine, but His who sent me;
field: 43007017
43
7
17
if any one may will to do His will, he shall know concerning the teaching, whether it is of God, or -- I do speak from myself.
field: 43007018
43
7
18
`He who is speaking from himself his own glory doth seek, but he who is seeking the glory of him who sent him, this one is true, and unrighteousness is not in him;
field: 43007019
43
7
19
hath not Moses given you the law? and none of you doth the law; why me do ye seek to kill?'
field: 43007020
43
7
20
The multitude answered and said, `Thou hast a demon, who doth seek to kill thee?'
field: 43007021
43
7
21
Jesus answered and said to them, `One work I did, and ye all wonder,
field: 43007022
43
7
22
because of this, Moses hath given you the circumcision -- not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers -- and on a sabbath ye circumcise a man;
field: 43007023
43
7
23
if a man doth receive circumcision on a sabbath that the law of Moses may not be broken, are ye wroth with me that I made a man all whole on a sabbath?
field: 43007024
43
7
24
judge not according to appearance, but the righteous judgment judge.'
field: 43007025
43
7
25
Certain, therefore, of the Jerusalemites said, `Is not this he whom they are seeking to kill?
field: 43007026
43
7
26
and, lo, he doth speak freely, and they say nothing to him; did the rulers at all know truly that this is truly the Christ?
field: 43007027
43
7
27
but this one -- we have known whence he is; and the Christ, when he doth come, no one doth know whence he is.'
field: 43007028
43
7
28
Jesus cried, therefore, in the temple, teaching and saying, `Ye have both known me, and ye have known whence I am; and I have not come of myself, but He who sent me is true, whom ye have not known;
field: 43007029
43
7
29
and I have known Him, because I am from Him, and He did send me.'
field: 43007030
43
7
30
They were seeking, therefore, to seize him, and no one laid the hand on him, because his hour had not yet come,
field: 43007031
43
7
31
and many out of the multitude did believe in him, and said -- `The Christ -- when he may come -- will he do more signs than these that this one did?'
field: 43007032
43
7
32
The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers that they may take him;
field: 43007033
43
7
33
Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Yet a little time I am with you, and I go away unto Him who sent me;
field: 43007034
43
7
34
ye will seek me, and ye shall not find; and where I am, ye are not able to come.'
field: 43007035
43
7
35
The Jews, therefore, said among themselves, `Whither is this one about to go that we shall not find him? -- to the dispersion of the Greeks is he about to go? and to teach the Greeks;
field: 43007036
43
7
36
what is this word that he said, Ye will seek me, and ye shall not find? and, Where I am, ye are not able to come?'
field: 43007037
43
7
37
And in the last, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, `If any one doth thirst, let him come unto me and drink;
field: 43007038
43
7
38
he who is believing in me, according as the Writing said, Rivers out of his belly shall flow of living water;'
field: 43007039
43
7
39
and this he said of the Spirit, which those believing in him were about to receive; for not yet was the Holy Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
field: 43007040
43
7
40
Many, therefore out of the multitude, having heard the word, said, `This is truly the Prophet;'
field: 43007041
43
7
41
others said, `This is the Christ;' and others said, `Why, out of Galilee doth the Christ come?
field: 43007042
43
7
42
Did not the Writing say, that out of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem -- the village where David was -- the Christ doth come?'
field: 43007043
43
7
43
A division, therefore, arose among the multitude because of him.
field: 43007044
43
7
44
And certain of them were willing to seize him, but no one laid hands on him;
field: 43007045
43
7
45
the officers came, therefore, unto the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, `Wherefore did ye not bring him?'
field: 43007046
43
7
46
The officers answered, `Never so spake man -- as this man.'
field: 43007047
43
7
47
The Pharisees, therefore, answered them, `Have ye also been led astray?
field: 43007048
43
7
48
did any one out of the rulers believe in him? or out of the Pharisees?
field: 43007049
43
7
49
but this multitude, that is not knowing the law, is accursed.'
field: 43007050
43
7
50
Nicodemus saith unto them -- he who came by night unto him -- being one of them,
field: 43007051
43
7
51
`Doth our law judge the man, if it may not hear from him first, and know what he doth?'
field: 43007052
43
7
52
They answered and said to him, `Art thou also out of Galilee? search and see, that a prophet out of Galilee hath not risen;'
field: 43007053
43
7
53
and each one went on to his house, but Jesus went on to the mount of the Olives.
field: 43008001
43
8
1
And at dawn he came again to the temple,
field: 43008002
43
8
2
and all the people were coming unto him, and having sat down, he was teaching them;
field: 43008003
43
8
3
and the scribes and the Pharisees bring unto him a woman having been taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,
field: 43008004
43
8
4
they say to him, `Teacher, this woman was taken in the very crime -- committing adultery,
field: 43008005
43
8
5
and in the law, Moses did command us that such be stoned; thou, therefore, what dost thou say?'
field: 43008006
43
8
6
and this they said, trying him, that they might have to accuse him. And Jesus, having stooped down, with the finger he was writing on the ground,
field: 43008007
43
8
7
and when they continued asking him, having bent himself back, he said unto them, `The sinless of you -- let him first cast the stone at her;'
field: 43008008
43
8
8
and again having stooped down, he was writing on the ground,
field: 43008009
43
8
9
and they having heard, and by the conscience being convicted, were going forth one by one, having begun from the elders -- unto the last; and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
field: 43008010
43
8
10
And Jesus having bent himself back, and having seen no one but the woman, said to her, `Woman, where are those -- thine accusers? did no one pass sentence upon thee?'
field: 43008011
43
8
11
and she said, `No one, Sir;' and Jesus said to her, `Neither do I pass sentence on thee; be going on, and no more sin.'
field: 43008012
43
8
12
Again, therefore, Jesus spake to them, saying, `I am the light of the world; he who is following me shall not walk in the darkness, but he shall have the light of the life.'
field: 43008013
43
8
13
The Pharisees, therefore, said to him, `Thou of thyself dost testify, thy testimony is not true;'
field: 43008014
43
8
14
Jesus answered and said to them, `And if I testify of myself -- my testimony is true, because I have known whence I came, and whither I go, and ye -- ye have not known whence I come, or whither I go.
field: 43008015
43
8
15
`Ye according to the flesh do judge; I do not judge any one,
field: 43008016
43
8
16
and even if I do judge my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me;
field: 43008017
43
8
17
and also in your law it hath been written, that the testimony of two men are true;
field: 43008018
43
8
18
I am `one' who is testifying of myself, and the Father who sent me doth testify of me.'
field: 43008019
43
8
19
They said, therefore, to him, `Where is thy father?' Jesus answered, `Ye have neither known me nor my Father: if me ye had known, my Father also ye had known.'
field: 43008020
43
8
20
These sayings spake Jesus in the treasury, teaching in the temple, and no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come;
field: 43008021
43
8
21
therefore said Jesus again to them, `I go away, and ye will seek me, and in your sin ye shall die; whither I go away, ye are not able to come.'
field: 43008022
43
8
22
The Jews, therefore, said, `Will he kill himself, because he saith, Whither I go away, ye are not able to come?'
field: 43008023
43
8
23
and he said to them, `Ye are from beneath, I am from above; ye are of this world, I am not of this world;
field: 43008024
43
8
24
I said, therefore, to you, that ye shall die in your sins, for if ye may not believe that I am `he', ye shall die in your sins.'
field: 43008025
43
8
25
They said, therefore, to him, `Thou -- who art thou?' and Jesus said to them, `Even what I did speak of to you at the beginning;
field: 43008026
43
8
26
many things I have to speak concerning you and to judge, but He who sent me is true, and I -- what things I heard from Him -- these I say to the world.'
field: 43008027
43
8
27
They knew not that of the Father he spake to them;
field: 43008028
43
8
28
Jesus, therefore, said to them, `When ye may lift up the Son of Man then ye will know that I am `he'; and of myself I do nothing, but according as my Father did teach me, these things I speak;
field: 43008029
43
8
29
and He who sent me is with me; the Father did not leave me alone, because I, the things pleasing to Him, do always.'
field: 43008030
43
8
30
As he is speaking these things, many believed in him;
field: 43008031
43
8
31
Jesus, therefore, said unto the Jews who believed in him, `If ye may remain in my word, truly my disciples ye are, and ye shall know the truth,
field: 43008032
43
8
32
and the truth shall make you free.'
field: 43008033
43
8
33
They answered him, `Seed of Abraham we are; and to no one have we been servants at any time; how dost thou say -- Ye shall become free?'
field: 43008034
43
8
34
Jesus answered them, `Verily, verily, I say to you -- Every one who is committing sin, is a servant of the sin,
field: 43008035
43
8
35
and the servant doth not remain in the house -- to the age, the son doth remain -- to the age;
field: 43008036
43
8
36
if then the son may make you free, in reality ye shall be free.
field: 43008037
43
8
37
`I have known that ye are seed of Abraham, but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you;
field: 43008038
43
8
38
I -- that which I have seen with my Father do speak, and ye, therefore, that which ye have seen with your father -- ye do.'
field: 43008039
43
8
39
They answered and said to him, `Our father is Abraham;' Jesus saith to them, `If children of Abraham ye were, the works of Abraham ye were doing;
field: 43008040
43
8
40
and now, ye seek to kill me -- a man who hath spoken to you the truth I heard from God; this Abraham did not;
field: 43008041
43
8
41
ye do the works of your father.' They said, therefore, to him, `We of whoredom have not been born; one Father we have -- God;'
field: 43008042
43
8
42
Jesus then said to them, `If God were your father, ye were loving me, for I came forth from God, and am come; for neither have I come of myself, but He sent me;
field: 43008043
43
8
43
wherefore do ye not know my speech? because ye are not able to hear my word.
field: 43008044
43
8
44
`Ye are of a father -- the devil, and the desires of your father ye will to do; he was a man-slayer from the beginning, and in the truth he hath not stood, because there is no truth in him; when one may speak the falsehood, of his own he speaketh, because he is a liar -- also his father.
field: 43008045
43
8
45
`And because I say the truth, ye do not believe me.
field: 43008046
43
8
46
Who of you doth convict me of sin? and if I speak truth, wherefore do ye not believe me?
field: 43008047
43
8
47
he who is of God, the sayings of God he doth hear; because of this ye do not hear, because of God ye are not.'
field: 43008048
43
8
48
The Jews, therefore, answered and said to him, `Do we not say well, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?'
field: 43008049
43
8
49
Jesus answered, `I have not a demon, but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me;
field: 43008050
43
8
50
and I do not seek my own glory; there is who is seeking and is judging;
field: 43008051
43
8
51
verily, verily, I say to you, If any one may keep my word, death he may not see -- to the age.'
field: 43008052
43
8
52
The Jews, therefore, said to him, `Now we have known that thou hast a demon; Abraham did die, and the prophets, and thou dost say, If any one may keep my word, he shall not taste of death -- to the age!
field: 43008053
43
8
53
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? and the prophets died; whom dost thou make thyself?'
field: 43008054
43
8
54
Jesus answered, `If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing; it is my Father who is glorifying me, of whom ye say that He is your God;
field: 43008055
43
8
55
and ye have not known Him, and I have known Him, and if I say that I have not known Him, I shall be like you -- speaking falsely; but I have known Him, and His word I keep;
field: 43008056
43
8
56
Abraham, your father, was glad that he might see my day; and he saw, and did rejoice.'
field: 43008057
43
8
57
The Jews, therefore, said unto him, `Thou art not yet fifty years old, and Abraham hast thou seen?'
field: 43008058
43
8
58
Jesus said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham's coming -- I am;'
field: 43008059
43
8
59
they took up, therefore, stones that they may cast at him, but Jesus hid himself, and went forth out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
field: 43009001
43
9
1
And passing by, he saw a man blind from birth,
field: 43009002
43
9
2
and his disciples asked him, saying, `Rabbi, who did sin, this one or his parents, that he should be born blind?'
field: 43009003
43
9
3
Jesus answered, `Neither did this one sin nor his parents, but that the works of God may be manifested in him;
field: 43009004
43
9
4
it behoveth me to be working the works of Him who sent me while it is day; night doth come, when no one is able to work: --
field: 43009005
43
9
5
when I am in the world, I am a light of the world.'
field: 43009006
43
9
6
These things saying, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and rubbed the clay on the eyes of the blind man, and said to him,
field: 43009007
43
9
7
`Go away, wash at the pool of Siloam,' which is, interpreted, Sent. He went away, therefore, and did wash, and came seeing;
field: 43009008
43
9
8
the neighbours, therefore, and those seeing him before, that he was blind, said, `Is not this he who is sitting and begging?'
field: 43009009
43
9
9
others said -- `This is he;' and others -- `He is like to him;' he himself said, -- `I am `he'.'
field: 43009010
43
9
10
They said, therefore, to him, `How were thine eyes opened?'
field: 43009011
43
9
11
he answered and said, `A man called Jesus made clay, and rubbed my eyes, and said to me, Go away to the pool of Siloam, and wash; and having gone away and having washed, I received sight;'
field: 43009012
43
9
12
they said, therefore, to him, `Where is that one?' he saith, `I have not known.'
field: 43009013
43
9
13
They bring him to the Pharisees who once `was' blind,
field: 43009014
43
9
14
and it was a sabbath when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
field: 43009015
43
9
15
Again, therefore, the Pharisees also were asking him how he received sight, and he said to them, `Clay he did put upon my eyes, and I did wash -- and I see.'
field: 43009016
43
9
16
Of the Pharisees, therefore, certain said, `This man is not from God, because the sabbath he doth not keep;' others said, `How is a man -- a sinful one -- able to do such signs?' and there was a division among them.
field: 43009017
43
9
17
They said to the blind man again, `Thou -- what dost thou say of him -- that he opened thine eyes?'
field: 43009018
43
9
18
and he said -- `He is a prophet.' The Jews, therefore, did not believe concerning him that he was blind and did receive sight, till that they called the parents of him who received sight,
field: 43009019
43
9
19
and they asked them, saying, `Is your son, of whom ye say that he was born blind? how then now doth he see?'
field: 43009020
43
9
20
His parents answered them and said, `We have known that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
field: 43009021
43
9
21
and how he now seeth, we have not known; or who opened his eyes, we have not known; himself is of age, ask him; he himself shall speak concerning himself.'
field: 43009022
43
9
22
These things said his parents, because they were afraid of the Jews, for already had the Jews agreed together, that if any one may confess him -- Christ, he may be put out of the synagogue;
field: 43009023
43
9
23
because of this his parents said -- `He is of age, ask him.'
field: 43009024
43
9
24
They called, therefore, a second time the man who was blind, and they said to him, `Give glory to God, we have known that this man is a sinner;'
field: 43009025
43
9
25
he answered, therefore, and said, `If he be a sinner -- I have not known, one thing I have known, that, being blind, now I see.'
field: 43009026
43
9
26
And they said to him again, `What did he to thee? how did he open thine eyes?'
field: 43009027
43
9
27
He answered them, `I told you already, and ye did not hear; why again do ye wish to hear? do ye also wish to become his disciples?'
field: 43009028
43
9
28
They reviled him, therefore, and said, `Thou art his disciple, and we are Moses' disciples;
field: 43009029
43
9
29
we have known that God hath spoken to Moses, but this one -- we have not known whence he is.'
field: 43009030
43
9
30
The man answered and said to them, `Why, in this is a wonderful thing, that ye have not known whence he is, and he opened my eyes!
field: 43009031
43
9
31
and we have known that God doth not hear sinners, but, if any one may be a worshipper of God, and may do His will, him He doth hear;
field: 43009032
43
9
32
from the age it was not heard, that any one did open eyes of one who hath been born blind;
field: 43009033
43
9
33
if this one were not from God, he were not able to do anything.'
field: 43009034
43
9
34
They answered and said to him, `In sins thou wast born altogether, and thou dost teach us!' and they cast him forth without.
field: 43009035
43
9
35
Jesus heard that they cast him forth without, and having found him, he said to him, `Dost thou believe in the Son of God?'
field: 43009036
43
9
36
he answered and said, `Who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?'
field: 43009037
43
9
37
And Jesus said to him, `Thou hast both seen him, and he who is speaking with thee is he;'
field: 43009038
43
9
38
and he said, `I believe, sir,' and bowed before him.
field: 43009039
43
9
39
And Jesus said, `For judgment I to this world did come, that those not seeing may see, and those seeing may become blind.'
field: 43009040
43
9
40
And those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and they said to him, `Are we also blind?'
field: 43009041
43
9
41
Jesus said to them, `If ye were blind, ye were not having had sin, but now ye say -- We see, therefore doth your sin remain.
field: 43010001
43
10
1
`Verily, verily, I say to you, He who is not entering through the door to the fold of the sheep, but is going up from another side, that one is a thief and a robber;
field: 43010002
43
10
2
and he who is entering through the door is shepherd of the sheep;
field: 43010003
43
10
3
to this one the doorkeeper doth open, and the sheep hear his voice, and his own sheep he doth call by name, and doth lead them forth;
field: 43010004
43
10
4
and when his own sheep he may put forth, before them he goeth on, and the sheep follow him, because they have known his voice;
field: 43010005
43
10
5
and a stranger they will not follow, but will flee from him, because they have not known the voice of strangers.'
field: 43010006
43
10
6
This similitude spake Jesus to them, and they knew not what the things were that he was speaking to them;
field: 43010007
43
10
7
Jesus said therefore again to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you -- I am the door of the sheep;
field: 43010008
43
10
8
all, as many as came before me, are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them;
field: 43010009
43
10
9
I am the door, through me if any one may come in, he shall be saved, and he shall come in, and go out, and find pasture.
field: 43010010
43
10
10
`The thief doth not come, except that he may steal, and kill, and destroy; I came that they may have life, and may have `it' abundantly.
field: 43010011
43
10
11
`I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd his life layeth down for the sheep;
field: 43010012
43
10
12
and the hireling, and not being a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, doth behold the wolf coming, and doth leave the sheep, and doth flee; and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep;
field: 43010013
43
10
13
and the hireling doth flee because he is an hireling, and is not caring for the sheep.
field: 43010014
43
10
14
`I am the good shepherd, and I know my `sheep', and am known by mine,
field: 43010015
43
10
15
according as the Father doth know me, and I know the Father, and my life I lay down for the sheep,
field: 43010016
43
10
16
and other sheep I have that are not of this fold, these also it behoveth me to bring, and my voice they will hear, and there shall become one flock -- one shepherd.
field: 43010017
43
10
17
`Because of this doth the Father love me, because I lay down my life, that again I may take it;
field: 43010018
43
10
18
no one doth take it from me, but I lay it down of myself; authority I have to lay it down, and authority I have again to take it; this command I received from my Father.'
field: 43010019
43
10
19
Therefore, again, there came a division among the Jews, because of these words,
field: 43010020
43
10
20
and many of them said, `He hath a demon, and is mad, why do ye hear him?'
field: 43010021
43
10
21
others said, `These sayings are not those of a demoniac; is a demon able blind men's eyes to open?'
field: 43010022
43
10
22
And the dedication in Jerusalem came, and it was winter,
field: 43010023
43
10
23
and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the porch of Solomon,
field: 43010024
43
10
24
the Jews, therefore, came round about him, and said to him, `Till when our soul dost thou hold in suspense? if thou art the Christ, tell us freely.'
field: 43010025
43
10
25
Jesus answered them, `I told you, and ye do not believe; the works that I do in the name of my Father, these testify concerning me;
field: 43010026
43
10
26
but ye do not believe, for ye are not of my sheep,
field: 43010027
43
10
27
according as I said to you: My sheep my voice do hear, and I know them, and they follow me,
field: 43010028
43
10
28
and life age-during I give to them, and they shall not perish -- to the age, and no one shall pluck them out of my hand;
field: 43010029
43
10
29
my Father, who hath given to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to pluck out of the hand of my Father;
field: 43010030
43
10
30
I and the Father are one.'
field: 43010031
43
10
31
Therefore, again, did the Jews take up stones that they may stone him;
field: 43010032
43
10
32
Jesus answered them, `Many good works did I shew you from my Father; because of which work of them do ye stone me?'
field: 43010033
43
10
33
The Jews answered him, saying, `For a good work we do not stone thee, but for evil speaking, and because thou, being a man, dost make thyself God.'
field: 43010034
43
10
34
Jesus answered them, `Is it not having been written in your law: I said, ye are gods?
field: 43010035
43
10
35
if them he did call gods unto whom the word of God came, (and the Writing is not able to be broken,)
field: 43010036
43
10
36
of him whom the Father did sanctify, and send to the world, do ye say -- Thou speakest evil, because I said, Son of God I am?
field: 43010037
43
10
37
if I do not the works of my Father, do not believe me;
field: 43010038
43
10
38
and if I do, even if me ye may not believe, the works believe, that ye may know and may believe that in me `is' the Father, and I in Him.'
field: 43010039
43
10
39
Therefore were they seeking again to seize him, and he went forth out of their hand,
field: 43010040
43
10
40
and went away again to the other side of the Jordan, to the place where John was at first baptizing, and remained there,
field: 43010041
43
10
41
and many came unto him, and said -- `John, indeed, did no sign, and all things, as many as John said about this one were true;'
field: 43010042
43
10
42
and many did believe in him there.
field: 43011001
43
11
1
And there was a certain one ailing, Lazarus, from Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister --
field: 43011002
43
11
2
and it was Mary who did anoint the Lord with ointment, and did wipe his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ailing --
field: 43011003
43
11
3
therefore sent the sisters unto him, saying, `Sir, lo, he whom thou dost love is ailing;'
field: 43011004
43
11
4
and Jesus having heard, said, `This ailment is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.'
field: 43011005
43
11
5
And Jesus was loving Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus,
field: 43011006
43
11
6
when, therefore, he heard that he is ailing, then indeed he remained in the place in which he was two days,
field: 43011007
43
11
7
then after this, he saith to the disciples, `We may go to Judea again;'
field: 43011008
43
11
8
the disciples say to him, `Rabbi, now were the Jews seeking to stone thee, and again thou dost go thither!'
field: 43011009
43
11
9
Jesus answered, `Are there not twelve hours in the day? if any one may walk in the day, he doth not stumble, because the light of this world he doth see;
field: 43011010
43
11
10
and if any one may walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.'
field: 43011011
43
11
11
These things he said, and after this he saith to them, `Lazarus our friend hath fallen asleep, but I go on that I may awake him;'
field: 43011012
43
11
12
therefore said his disciples, `Sir, if he hath fallen asleep, he will be saved;'
field: 43011013
43
11
13
but Jesus had spoken about his death, but they thought that about the repose of sleep he speaketh.
field: 43011014
43
11
14
Then, therefore, Jesus said to them freely, `Lazarus hath died;
field: 43011015
43
11
15
and I rejoice, for your sake, (that ye may believe,) that I was not there; but we may go to him;'
field: 43011016
43
11
16
therefore said Thomas, who is called Didymus, to the fellow-disciples, `We may go -- we also, that we may die with him,'
field: 43011017
43
11
17
Jesus, therefore, having come, found him having been four days already in the tomb.
field: 43011018
43
11
18
And Bethany was nigh to Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off,
field: 43011019
43
11
19
and many of the Jews had come unto Martha and Mary, that they might comfort them concerning their brother;
field: 43011020
43
11
20
Martha, therefore, when she heard that Jesus doth come, met him, and Mary kept sitting in the house.
field: 43011021
43
11
21
Martha, therefore, said unto Jesus, `Sir, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died;
field: 43011022
43
11
22
but even now, I have known that whatever thou mayest ask of God, God will give to thee;'
field: 43011023
43
11
23
Jesus saith to her, `Thy brother shall rise again.'
field: 43011024
43
11
24
Martha saith to him, `I have known that he will rise again, in the rising again in the last day;'
field: 43011025
43
11
25
Jesus said to her, `I am the rising again, and the life; he who is believing in me, even if he may die, shall live;
field: 43011026
43
11
26
and every one who is living and believing in me shall not die -- to the age;
field: 43011027
43
11
27
believest thou this?' she saith to him, `Yes, sir, I have believed that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming to the world.'
field: 43011028
43
11
28
And these things having said, she went away, and called Mary her sister privately, saying, `The Teacher is present, and doth call thee;'
field: 43011029
43
11
29
she, when she heard, riseth up quickly, and doth come to him;
field: 43011030
43
11
30
and Jesus had not yet come to the village, but was in the place where Martha met him;
field: 43011031
43
11
31
the Jews, therefore, who were with her in the house, and were comforting her, having seen Mary that she rose up quickly and went forth, followed her, saying -- `She doth go away to the tomb, that she may weep there.'
field: 43011032
43
11
32
Mary, therefore, when she came where Jesus was, having seen him, fell at his feet, saying to him, `Sir, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died;'
field: 43011033
43
11
33
Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, did groan in the spirit, and troubled himself, and he said,
field: 43011034
43
11
34
`Where have ye laid him?' they say to him, `Sir, come and see;'
field: 43011035
43
11
35
Jesus wept.
field: 43011036
43
11
36
The Jews, therefore, said, `Lo, how he was loving him!'
field: 43011037
43
11
37
and certain of them said, `Was not this one, who did open the eyes of the blind man, able to cause that also this one might not have died?'
field: 43011038
43
11
38
Jesus, therefore, again groaning in himself, cometh to the tomb, and it was a cave, and a stone was lying upon it,
field: 43011039
43
11
39
Jesus saith, `Take ye away the stone;' the sister of him who hath died -- Martha -- saith to him, `Sir, already he stinketh, for he is four days dead;'
field: 43011040
43
11
40
Jesus saith to her, `Said I not to thee, that if thou mayest believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?'
field: 43011041
43
11
41
They took away, therefore, the stone where the dead was laid, and Jesus lifted his eyes upwards, and said, `Father, I thank Thee, that Thou didst hear me;
field: 43011042
43
11
42
and I knew that Thou always dost hear me, but, because of the multitude that is standing by, I said `it', that they may believe that Thou didst send me.'
field: 43011043
43
11
43
And these things saying, with a loud voice he cried out, `Lazarus, come forth;'
field: 43011044
43
11
44
and he who died came forth, being bound feet and hands with grave-clothes, and his visage with a napkin was bound about; Jesus saith to them, `Loose him, and suffer to go.'
field: 43011045
43
11
45
Many, therefore, of the Jews who came unto Mary, and beheld what Jesus did, believed in him;
field: 43011046
43
11
46
but certain of them went away unto the Pharisees, and told them what Jesus did;
field: 43011047
43
11
47
the chief priests, therefore, and the Pharisees, gathered together a sanhedrim, and said, `What may we do? because this man doth many signs?
field: 43011048
43
11
48
if we may let him alone thus, all will believe in him; and the Romans will come, and will take away both our place and nation.'
field: 43011049
43
11
49
and a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being chief priest of that year, said to them, `Ye have not known anything,
field: 43011050
43
11
50
nor reason that it is good for us that one man may die for the people, and not the whole nation perish.'
field: 43011051
43
11
51
And this he said not of himself, but being chief priest of that year, he did prophesy that Jesus was about to die for the nation,
field: 43011052
43
11
52
and not for the nation only, but that also the children of God, who have been scattered abroad, he may gather together into one.
field: 43011053
43
11
53
From that day, therefore, they took counsel together that they may kill him;
field: 43011054
43
11
54
Jesus, therefore, was no more freely walking among the Jews, but went away thence to the region nigh the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there he tarried with his disciples.
field: 43011055
43
11
55
And the passover of the Jews was nigh, and many went up to Jerusalem out of the country before the passover, that they might purify themselves;
field: 43011056
43
11
56
they were seeking, therefore, Jesus, and said one with another, standing in the temple, `What doth appear to you -- that he may not come to the feast?'
field: 43011057
43
11
57
and both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that if any one may know where he is, he may shew `it', so that they may seize him.
field: 43012001
43
12
1
Jesus, therefore, six days before the passover, came to Bethany, where was Lazarus, who had died, whom he raised out of the dead;
field: 43012002
43
12
2
they made, therefore, to him a supper there, and Martha was ministering, and Lazarus was one of those reclining together (at meat) with him;
field: 43012003
43
12
3
Mary, therefore, having taken a pound of ointment of spikenard, of great price, anointed the feet of Jesus and did wipe with her hair his feet, and the house was filled from the fragrance of the ointment.
field: 43012004
43
12
4
Therefore saith one of his disciples -- Judas Iscariot, of Simon, who is about to deliver him up --
field: 43012005
43
12
5
`Wherefore was not this ointment sold for three hundred denaries, and given to the poor?'
field: 43012006
43
12
6
and he said this, not because he was caring for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and what things were put in he was carrying.
field: 43012007
43
12
7
Jesus, therefore, said, `Suffer her; for the day of my embalming she hath kept it,
field: 43012008
43
12
8
for the poor ye have always with yourselves, and me ye have not always.'
field: 43012009
43
12
9
A great multitude, therefore, of the Jews knew that he is there, and they came, not because of Jesus only, but that Lazarus also they may see, whom he raised out of the dead;
field: 43012010
43
12
10
and the chief priests took counsel, that also Lazarus they may kill,
field: 43012011
43
12
11
because on account of him many of the Jews were going away, and were believing in Jesus.
field: 43012012
43
12
12
On the morrow, a great multitude that came to the feast, having heard that Jesus doth come to Jerusalem,
field: 43012013
43
12
13
took the branches of the palms, and went forth to meet him, and were crying, `Hosanna, blessed `is' he who is coming in the name of the Lord -- the king of Israel;'
field: 43012014
43
12
14
and Jesus having found a young ass did sit upon it, according as it is written,
field: 43012015
43
12
15
`Fear not, daughter of Sion, lo, thy king doth come, sitting on an ass' colt.'
field: 43012016
43
12
16
And these things his disciples did not know at the first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were having been written about him, and these things they did to him.
field: 43012017
43
12
17
The multitude, therefore, who are with him, were testifying that he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and did raise him out of the dead;
field: 43012018
43
12
18
because of this also did the multitude meet him, because they heard of his having done this sign,
field: 43012019
43
12
19
the Pharisees, therefore, said among themselves, `Ye see that ye do not gain anything, lo, the world did go after him.'
field: 43012020
43
12
20
And there were certain Greeks out of those coming up that they may worship in the feast,
field: 43012021
43
12
21
these then came near to Philip, who `is' from Bethsaida of Galilee, and were asking him, saying, `Sir, we wish to see Jesus;'
field: 43012022
43
12
22
Philip cometh and telleth Andrew, and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.
field: 43012023
43
12
23
And Jesus responded to them, saying, `The hour hath come that the Son of Man may be glorified;
field: 43012024
43
12
24
verily, verily, I say to you, if the grain of the wheat, having fallen to the earth, may not die, itself remaineth alone; and if it may die, it doth bear much fruit;
field: 43012025
43
12
25
he who is loving his life shall lose it, and he who is hating his life in this world -- to life age-during shall keep it;
field: 43012026
43
12
26
if any one may minister to me, let him follow me, and where I am, there also my ministrant shall be; and if any one may minister to me -- honour him will the Father.
field: 43012027
43
12
27
`Now hath my soul been troubled, and what? shall I say -- Father, save me from this hour? -- but because of this I came to this hour;
field: 43012028
43
12
28
Father, glorify Thy name.' There came, therefore, a voice out of the heaven, `I both glorified, and again I will glorify `it';'
field: 43012029
43
12
29
the multitude, therefore, having stood and heard, were saying that there hath been thunder; others said, `A messenger hath spoken to him.'
field: 43012030
43
12
30
Jesus answered and said, `Not because of me hath this voice come, but because of you;
field: 43012031
43
12
31
now is a judgment of this world, now shall the ruler of this world be cast forth;
field: 43012032
43
12
32
and I, if I may be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto myself.'
field: 43012033
43
12
33
And this he said signifying by what death he was about to die;
field: 43012034
43
12
34
the multitude answered him, `We heard out of the law that the Christ doth remain -- to the age; and how dost thou say, That it behoveth the Son of Man to be lifted up? who is this -- the Son of Man?'
field: 43012035
43
12
35
Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Yet a little time is the light with you; walk while ye have the light, that darkness may not overtake you; and he who is walking in the darkness hath not known where he goeth;
field: 43012036
43
12
36
while ye have the light, believe in the light, that sons of light ye may become.' These things spake Jesus, and having gone away, he was hid from them,
field: 43012037
43
12
37
yet he having done so many signs before them, they were not believing in him,
field: 43012038
43

that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he said, `Lord, who gave credence to our report? and the arm of the Lord -- to whom was it revealed?'
field: 43012039
43
12
39
Because of this they were not able to believe, that again Isaiah said,
field: 43012040
43
12
40
`He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, that they might not see with the eyes, and understand with the heart, and turn back, and I might heal them;'
field: 43012041
43
12
41
these things said Isaiah, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.
field: 43012042
43
12
42
Still, however, also out of the rulers did many believe in him, but because of the Pharisees they were not confessing, that they might not be put out of the synagogue,
field: 43012043
43
12
43
for they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God.
field: 43012044
43
12
44
And Jesus cried and said, `He who is believing in me, doth not believe in me, but in Him who sent me;
field: 43012045
43
12
45
and he who is beholding me, doth behold Him who sent me;
field: 43012046
43
12
46
I a light to the world have come, that every one who is believing in me -- in the darkness may not remain;
field: 43012047
43
12
47
and if any one may hear my sayings, and not believe, I -- I do not judge him, for I came not that I might judge the world, but that I might save the world.
field: 43012048
43
12
48
`He who is rejecting me, and not receiving my sayings, hath one who is judging him, the word that I spake, that will judge him in the last day,
field: 43012049
43
12
49
because I spake not from myself, but the Father who sent me, He did give me a command, what I may say, and what I may speak,
field: 43012050
43
12
50
and I have known that His command is life age-during; what, therefore, I speak, according as the Father hath said to me, so I speak.'
field: 43013001
43
13
1
And before the feast of the passover, Jesus knowing that his hour hath come, that he may remove out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own who `are' in the world -- to the end he loved them.
field: 43013002
43
13
2
And supper being come, the devil already having put `it' into the heart of Judas of Simon, Iscariot, that he may deliver him up,
field: 43013003
43
13
3
Jesus knowing that all things the Father hath given to him -- into `his' hands, and that from God he came forth, and unto God he goeth,
field: 43013004
43
13
4
doth rise from the supper, and doth lay down his garments, and having taken a towel, he girded himself;
field: 43013005
43
13
5
afterward he putteth water into the basin, and began to wash the feet of his disciples, and to wipe with the towel with which he was being girded.
field: 43013006
43
13
6
He cometh, therefore, unto Simon Peter, and that one saith to him, `Sir, thou -- dost thou wash my feet?'
field: 43013007
43
13
7
Jesus answered and said to him, `That which I do thou hast not known now, but thou shalt know after these things;'
field: 43013008
43
13
8
Peter saith to him, `Thou mayest not wash my feet -- to the age.' Jesus answered him, `If I may not wash thee, thou hast no part with me;'
field: 43013009
43
13
9
Simon Peter saith to him, `Sir, not my feet only, but also the hands and the head.'
field: 43013010
43
13
10
Jesus saith to him, `He who hath been bathed hath no need save to wash his feet, but he is clean altogether; and ye are clean, but not all;'
field: 43013011
43
13
11
for he knew him who is delivering him up; because of this he said, `Ye are not all clean.'
field: 43013012
43
13
12
When, therefore, he washed their feet, and took his garments, having reclined (at meat) again, he said to them, `Do ye know what I have done to you?
field: 43013013
43
13
13
ye call me, The Teacher and The Lord, and ye say well, for I am;
field: 43013014
43
13
14
if then I did wash your feet -- the Lord and the Teacher -- ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
field: 43013015
43
13
15
`For an example I gave to you, that, according as I did to you, ye also may do;
field: 43013016
43
13
16
verily, verily, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his lord, nor an apostle greater than he who sent him;
field: 43013017
43
13
17
if these things ye have known, happy are ye, if ye may do them;
field: 43013018
43
13
18
not concerning you all do I speak; I have known whom I chose for myself; but that the Writing may be fulfilled: He who is eating the bread with me, did lift up against me his heel.
field: 43013019
43
13
19
`From this time I tell you, before its coming to pass, that, when it may come to pass, ye may believe that I am `he';
field: 43013020
43
13
20
verily, verily, I say to you, he who is receiving whomsoever I may send, doth receive me; and he who is receiving me, doth receive Him who sent me.'
field: 43013021
43
13
21
These things having said, Jesus was troubled in the spirit, and did testify, and said, `Verily, verily, I say to you, that one of you will deliver me up;'
field: 43013022
43
13
22
the disciples were looking, therefore, one at another, doubting concerning whom he speaketh.
field: 43013023
43
13
23
And there was one of his disciples reclining (at meat) in the bosom of Jesus, whom Jesus was loving;
field: 43013024
43
13
24
Simon Peter, then, doth beckon to this one, to inquire who he may be concerning whom he speaketh,
field: 43013025
43
13
25
and that one having leant back on the breast of Jesus, respondeth to him, `Sir, who is it?'
field: 43013026
43
13
26
Jesus answereth, `That one it is to whom I, having dipped the morsel, shall give it;' and having dipped the morsel, he giveth `it' to Judas of Simon, Iscariot.
field: 43013027
43
13
27
And after the morsel, then the Adversary entered into that one, Jesus, therefore, saith to him, `What thou dost -- do quickly;'
field: 43013028
43
13
28
and none of those reclining at meat knew for what intent he said this to him,
field: 43013029
43
13
29
for certain were thinking, since Judas had the bag, that Jesus saith to him, `Buy what we have need of for the feast;' or that he may give something to the poor;
field: 43013030
43
13
30
having received, therefore, the morsel, that one immediately went forth, and it was night.
field: 43013031
43
13
31
When, therefore, he went forth, Jesus saith, `Now was the Son of Man glorified, and God was glorified in him;
field: 43013032
43
13
32
if God was glorified in him, God also will glorify him in Himself; yea, immediately He will glorify him.
field: 43013033
43

33
`Little children, yet a little am I with you; ye will seek me, and, according as I said to the Jews -- Whither I go away, ye are not able to come, to you also I do say `it' now.
field: 43013034
43
13
34
`A new commandment I give to you, that ye love one another; according as I did love you, that ye also love one another;

13
35
in this shall all know that ye are my disciples, if ye may have love one to another.'
field: 43013036
43
13
36
Simon Peter saith to him, `Sir, whither dost thou go away?' Jesus answered him, `Whither I go away, thou art not able now to follow me, but afterward thou shalt follow me.'
field: 43013037
43
13
37
Peter saith to him, `Sir, wherefore am I not able to follow thee now? my life for thee I will lay down;'
field: 43013038
43
13
38
Jesus answered him, `Thy life for me thou wilt lay down! verily, verily, I say to thee, a cock will not crow till thou mayest deny me thrice.'

`Let not your heart be troubled, believe in God, also in me believe;

Thomas saith to him, `Sir, we have not known whither thou goest away, and how are we able to know the way?'
field: 43014006
43

Jesus saith to him, `I am the way, and the truth, and the life, no one doth come unto the Father, if not through me;

43

if ye had known me, my Father also ye would have known, and from this time ye have known Him, and have seen Him.'

Philip saith to him, `Sir, shew to us the Father, and it is enough for us;'

and whatever ye may ask in my name, I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son;

Jesus answered and said to him, `If any one may love me, my word he will keep, and my Father will love him, and unto him we will come, and abode with him we will make;

`I have yet many things to say to you, but ye are not able to bear `them' now;

Therefore said `some' of his disciples one to another, `What is this that he saith to us, A little while, and ye do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me, and, Because I go away unto the Father?'

Jesus, therefore, knew that they were wishing to ask him, and he said to them, `Concerning this do ye seek one with another, because I said, A little while, and you do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me?

30
now we have known that thou hast known all things, and hast no need that any one do question thee; in this we believe that from God thou didst come forth.'
field: 43016031
43
16
31
Jesus answered them, `Now do ye believe? lo, there doth come an hour,
field: 43016032
43
16
32
and now it hath come, that ye may be scattered, each to his own things, and me ye may leave alone, and I am not alone, because the Father is with me;
field: 43016033
43
16
33
these things I have spoken to you, that in me ye may have peace, in the world ye shall have tribulation, but take courage -- I have overcome the world.'
field: 43017001
43
17
1
These things spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to the heaven, and said -- `Father, the hour hath come, glorify Thy Son, that Thy Son also may glorify Thee,
field: 43017002
43
17
2
according as Thou didst give to him authority over all flesh, that -- all that Thou hast given to him -- he may give to them life age-during;
field: 43017003
43
17
3
and this is the life age-during, that they may know Thee, the only true God, and him whom Thou didst send -- Jesus Christ;
field: 43017004
43
17
4
I did glorify Thee on the earth, the work I did finish that Thou hast given me, that I may do `it'.
field: 43017005
43
17
5
`And now, glorify me, Thou Father, with Thyself, with the glory that I had before the world was, with Thee;
field: 43017006
43
17
6
I did manifest Thy name to the men whom Thou hast given to me out of the world; Thine they were, and to me Thou hast given them, and Thy word they have kept;
field: 43017007
43
17
7
now they have known that all things, as many as Thou hast given to me, are from Thee,
field: 43017008
43
17
8
because the sayings that Thou hast given to me, I have given to them, and they themselves received, and have known truly, that from Thee I came forth, and they did believe that Thou didst send me.
field: 43017009
43
17
9
`I ask in regard to them; not in regard to the world do I ask, but in regard to those whom Thou hast given to me, because Thine they are,
field: 43017010
43
17
10
and all mine are Thine, and Thine `are' mine, and I have been glorified in them;
field: 43017011
43
17
11
and no more am I in the world, and these are in the world, and I come unto Thee. Holy Father, keep them in Thy name, whom Thou hast given to me, that they may be one as we;
field: 43017012
43
17
12
when I was with them in the world, I was keeping them in Thy name; those whom Thou hast given to me I did guard, and none of them was destroyed, except the son of the destruction, that the Writing may be fulfilled.
field: 43017013
43
17
13
`And now unto Thee I come, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves;
field: 43017014
43
17
14
I have given to them Thy word, and the world did hate them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world;
field: 43017015
43
17
15
I do not ask that Thou mayest take them out of the world, but that Thou mayest keep them out of the evil.
field: 43017016
43
17
16
`Of the world they are not, as I of the world am not;
field: 43017017
43
17
17
sanctify them in Thy truth, Thy word is truth;
field: 43017018
43
17
18
as Thou didst send me to the world, I also did send them to the world;
field: 43017019
43
17
19
and for them do I sanctify myself, that they also themselves may be sanctified in truth.
field: 43017020
43
17
20
`And not in regard to these alone do I ask, but also in regard to those who shall be believing, through their word, in me;
field: 43017021
43
17
21
that they all may be one, as Thou Father `art' in me, and I in Thee; that they also in us may be one, that the world may believe that Thou didst send me.
field: 43017022
43
17
22
`And I, the glory that thou hast given to me, have given to them, that they may be one as we are one;
field: 43017023
43
17
23
I in them, and Thou in me, that they may be perfected into one, and that the world may know that Thou didst send me, and didst love them as Thou didst love me.
field: 43017024
43
17
24
`Father, those whom Thou hast given to me, I will that where I am they also may be with me, that they may behold my glory that Thou didst give to me, because Thou didst love me before the foundation of the world.
field: 43017025
43
17
25
`Righteous Father, also the world did not know Thee, and I knew Thee, and these have known that Thou didst send me,
field: 43017026
43
17
26
and I made known to them Thy name, and will make known, that the love with which Thou lovedst me in them may be, and I in them.'
field: 43018001
43
18
1
These things having said, Jesus went forth with his disciples beyond the brook of Kedron, where was a garden, into which he entered, himself and his disciples,
field: 43018002
43
18
2
and Judas also, who delivered him up, had known the place, because many times did Jesus assemble there with his disciples.
field: 43018003
43
18
3
Judas, therefore, having taken the band and officers out of the chief priests and Pharisees, doth come thither with torches and lamps, and weapons;
field: 43018004
43
18
4
Jesus, therefore, knowing all things that are coming upon him, having gone forth, said to them, `Whom do ye seek?'
field: 43018005
43
18
5
they answered him, `Jesus the Nazarene;' Jesus saith to them, `I am `he';' -- and Judas who delivered him up was standing with them; --
field: 43018006
43
18
6
when, therefore, he said to them -- `I am `he',' they went away backward, and fell to the ground.
field: 43018007
43
18
7
Again, therefore, he questioned them, `Whom do ye seek?' and they said, `Jesus the Nazarene;'
field: 43018008
43
18
8
Jesus answered, `I said to you that I am `he'; if, then, me ye seek, suffer these to go away;'
field: 43018009
43
18
9
that the word might be fulfilled that he said -- `Those whom Thou hast given to me, I did not lose of them even one.'
field: 43018010
43
18
10
Simon Peter, therefore, having a sword, drew it, and struck the chief priest's servant, and cut off his right ear -- and the name of the servant was Malchus --
field: 43018011
43
18
11
Jesus, therefore, said to Peter, `Put the sword into the sheath; the cup that the Father hath given to me, may I not drink it?'
field: 43018012
43
18
12
The band, therefore, and the captain, and the officers of the Jews, took hold on Jesus, and bound him,
field: 43018013
43
18
13
and they led him away to Annas first, for he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was chief priest of that year,
field: 43018014
43
18
14
and Caiaphas was he who gave counsel to the Jews, that it is good for one man to perish for the people.
field: 43018015
43
18
15
And following Jesus was Simon Peter, and the other disciple, and that disciple was known to the chief priest, and he entered with Jesus to the hall of the chief priest,
field: 43018016
43
18
16
and Peter was standing at the door without, therefore went forth the other disciple who was known to the chief priest, and he spake to the female keeping the door, and he brought in Peter.
field: 43018017
43
18
17
Then said the maid keeping the door to Peter, `Art thou also of the disciples of this man?' he saith, `I am not;'
field: 43018018
43
18
18
and the servants and the officers were standing, having made a fire of coals, because it was cold, and they were warming themselves, and Peter was standing with them, and warming himself.
field: 43018019
43
18
19
The chief priests, therefore, questioned Jesus concerning his disciples, and concerning his teaching;
field: 43018020
43
18
20
Jesus answered him, `I spake freely to the world, I did always teach in a synagogue, and in the temple, where the Jews do always come together; and in secret I spake nothing;
field: 43018021
43
18
21
why me dost thou question? question those having heard what I spake to them; lo, these have known what I said.'
field: 43018022
43
18
22
And he having said these things, one of the officers standing by did give Jesus a slap, saying, `Thus dost thou answer the chief priest?'
field: 43018023
43
18
23
Jesus answered him, `If I spake ill, testify concerning the ill; and if well, why me dost thou smite?'
field: 43018024
43
18
24
Annas then sent him bound to Caiaphas the chief priest.
field: 43018025
43
18
25
And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself, they said then to him, `Art thou also of his disciples?' he denied, and said, `I am not.'
field: 43018026
43
18
26
One of the servants of the chief priest, being kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, saith, `Did not I see thee in the garden with him?'
field: 43018027
43
18
27
again, therefore, Peter denied, and immediately a cock crew.
field: 43018028
43
18
28
They led, therefore, Jesus from Caiaphas to the praetorium, and it was early, and they themselves did not enter into the praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but that they might eat the passover;
field: 43018029
43
18
29
Pilate, therefore, went forth unto them, and said, `What accusation do ye bring against this man?'
field: 43018030
43
18
30
they answered and said to him, `If he were not an evil doer, we had not delivered him to thee.'
field: 43018031
43
18
31
Pilate, therefore, said to them, `Take ye him -- ye -- and according to your law judge him;' the Jews, therefore, said to him, `It is not lawful to us to put any one to death;'
field: 43018032
43
18
32
that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled which he said, signifying by what death he was about to die.
field: 43018033
43
18
33
Pilate, therefore, entered into the praetorium again, and called Jesus, and said to him, `Thou art the King of the Jews?'
field: 43018034
43
18
34
Jesus answered him, `From thyself dost thou say this? or did others say it to thee about me?'
field: 43018035
43
18
35
Pilate answered, `Am I a Jew? thy nation, and the chief priests did deliver thee up to me; what didst thou?'
field: 43018036
43
18
36
Jesus answered, `My kingdom is not of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, my officers had struggled that I might not be delivered up to Jews; but now my kingdom is not from hence.'
field: 43018037
43
18
37
Pilate, therefore, said to him, `Art thou then a king?' Jesus answered, `Thou dost say `it'; because a king I am, I for this have been born, and for this I have come to the world, that I may testify to the truth; every one who is of the truth, doth hear my voice.'
field: 43018038
43
18
38
Pilate saith to him, `What is truth?' and this having said, again he went forth unto the Jews, and saith to them, `I do find no fault in him;
field: 43018039
43
18
39
and ye have a custom that I shall release to you one in the passover; will ye, therefore, `that' I shall release to you the king of the Jews?'
field: 43018040
43
18
40
therefore they all cried out again, saying, `Not this one -- but Barabbas;' and Barabbas was a robber.
field: 43019001
43
19
1
Then, therefore, did Pilate take Jesus and scourge `him',
field: 43019002
43
19
2
and the soldiers having plaited a crown of thorns, did place `it' on his head, and a purple garment they put around him,
field: 43019003
43
19
3
and said, `Hail! the king of the Jews;' and they were giving him slaps.
field: 43019004
43
19
4
Pilate, therefore, again went forth without, and saith to them, `Lo, I do bring him to you without, that ye may know that in him I find no fault;'
field: 43019005
43
19
5
Jesus, therefore, came forth without, bearing the thorny crown and the purple garment; and he saith to them, `Lo, the man!'
field: 43019006
43
19
6
When, therefore, the chief priests and the officers did see him, they cried out, saying, `Crucify, crucify;' Pilate saith to them, `Take ye him -- ye, and crucify; for I find no fault in him;'
field: 43019007
43
19
7
the Jews answered him, `We have a law, and according to our law he ought to die, for he made himself Son of God.'
field: 43019008
43
19
8
When, therefore, Pilate heard this word, he was the more afraid,
field: 43019009
43
19
9
and entered again to the praetorium, and saith to Jesus, `Whence art thou?' and Jesus gave him no answer.
field: 43019010
43
19
10
Pilate, therefore, saith to him, `To me dost thou not speak? hast thou not known that I have authority to crucify thee, and I have authority to release thee?'
field: 43019011
43
19
11
Jesus answered, `Thou wouldst have no authority against me, if it were not having been given thee from above; because of this, he who is delivering me up to thee hath greater sin.'
field: 43019012
43
19
12
From this `time' was Pilate seeking to release him, and the Jews were crying out, saying, `If this one thou mayest release, thou art not a friend of Caesar; every one making himself a king, doth speak against Caesar.'
field: 43019013
43
19
13
Pilate, therefore, having heard this word, brought Jesus without -- and he sat down upon the tribunal -- to a place called, `Pavement,' and in Hebrew, Gabbatha;
field: 43019014
43
19
14
and it was the preparation of the passover, and as it were the sixth hour, and he saith to the Jews, `Lo, your king!'
field: 43019015
43
19
15
and they cried out, `Take away, take away, crucify him;' Pilate saith to them, `Your king shall I crucify?' the chief priests answered, `We have no king except Caesar.'
field: 43019016
43
19
16
Then, therefore, he delivered him up to them, that he may be crucified, and they took Jesus and led `him' away,
field: 43019017
43
19
17
and bearing his cross, he went forth to the place called `Place' of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew Golgotha;
field: 43019018
43
19
18
where they crucified him, and with him two others, on this side, and on that side, and Jesus in the midst.
field: 43019019
43
19
19
And Pilate also wrote a title, and put `it' on the cross, and it was written, `Jesus the Nazarene, the king of the Jews;'
field: 43019020
43
19
20
this title, therefore, read many of the Jews, because the place was nigh to the city where Jesus was crucified, and it was having been written in Hebrew, in Greek, in Roman.
field: 43019021
43
19
21
The chief priests of the Jews said, therefore, to Pilate, `Write not -- The king of the Jews, but that one said, I am king of the Jews;'
field: 43019022
43
19
22
Pilate answered, `What I have written, I have written.'
field: 43019023
43
19
23
The soldiers, therefore, when they did crucify Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to each soldier a part, also the coat, and the coat was seamless, from the top woven throughout,
field: 43019024
43
19
24
they said, therefore, to one another, `We may not rend it, but cast a lot for it, whose it shall be;' that the Writing might be fulfilled, that is saying, `They divided my garments to themselves, and upon my raiment they did cast a lot;' the soldiers, therefore, indeed, did these things.
field: 43019025
43
19
25
And there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary of Cleopas, and Mary the Magdalene;
field: 43019026
43
19
26
Jesus, therefore, having seen `his' mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he was loving, he saith to his mother, `Woman, lo, thy son;'
field: 43019027
43
19
27
afterward he saith to the disciple, `Lo, thy mother;' and from that hour the disciple took her to his own `home'.
field: 43019028
43
19
28
After this, Jesus knowing that all things now have been finished, that the Writing may be fulfilled, saith, `I thirst;'
field: 43019029
43
19
29
a vessel, therefore, was placed full of vinegar, and they having filled a sponge with vinegar, and having put `it' around a hyssop stalk, did put `it' to his mouth;
field: 43019030
43
19
30
when, therefore, Jesus received the vinegar, he said, `It hath been finished;' and having bowed the head, gave up the spirit.
field: 43019031
43
19
31
The Jews, therefore, that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, since it was the preparation, (for that sabbath day was a great one,) asked of Pilate that their legs may be broken, and they taken away.
field: 43019032
43
19
32
The soldiers, therefore, came, and of the first indeed they did break the legs, and of the other who was crucified with him,
field: 43019033
43
19
33
and having come to Jesus, when they saw him already having been dead, they did not break his legs;
field: 43019034
43
19
34
but one of the soldiers with a spear did pierce his side, and immediately there came forth blood and water;
field: 43019035
43
19
35
and he who hath seen hath testified, and his testimony is true, and that one hath known that true things he speaketh, that ye also may believe.
field: 43019036
43
19
36
For these things came to pass, that the Writing may be fulfilled, `A bone of him shall not be broken;'
field: 43019037
43
19
37
and again another Writing saith, `They shall look to him whom they did pierce.'
field: 43019038
43
19
38
And after these things did Joseph of Arimathea -- being a disciple of Jesus, but concealed, through the fear of the Jews -- ask of Pilate, that he may take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave leave; he came, therefore, and took away the body of Jesus,
field: 43019039
43
19
39
and Nicodemus also came -- who came unto Jesus by night at the first -- bearing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, as it were, a hundred pounds.
field: 43019040
43
19
40
They took, therefore, the body of Jesus, and bound it with linen clothes with the spices, according as it was the custom of the Jews to prepare for burial;
field: 43019041
43
19
41
and there was in the place where he was crucified a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one was yet laid;
field: 43019042
43
19
42
there, therefore, because of the preparation of the Jews, because the tomb was nigh, they laid Jesus.
field: 43020001
43
20
1
And on the first of the sabbaths, Mary the Magdalene doth come early (there being yet darkness) to the tomb, and she seeth the stone having been taken away out of the tomb,
field: 43020002
43
20
2
she runneth, therefore, and cometh unto Simon Peter, and unto the other disciple whom Jesus was loving, and saith to them, `They took away the Lord out of the tomb, and we have not known where they laid him.'
field: 43020003
43
20
3
Peter, therefore, went forth, and the other disciple, and they were coming to the tomb,
field: 43020004
43
20
4
and the two were running together, and the other disciple did run forward more quickly than Peter, and came first to the tomb,
field: 43020005
43
20
5
and having stooped down, seeth the linen clothes lying, yet, indeed, he entered not.
field: 43020006
43
20
6
Simon Peter, therefore, cometh, following him, and he entered into the tomb, and beholdeth the linen clothes lying,
field: 43020007
43
20
7
and the napkin that was upon his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but apart, having been folded up, in one place;
field: 43020008
43
20
8
then, therefore, entered also the other disciple who came first unto the tomb, and he saw, and did believe;
field: 43020009
43
20
9
for not yet did they know the Writing, that it behoveth him out of the dead to rise again.
field: 43020010
43
20
10
The disciples therefore went away again unto their own friends,
field: 43020011
43
20
11
and Mary was standing near the tomb, weeping without; as she was weeping, then, she stooped down to the tomb, and beholdeth two messengers in white, sitting,
field: 43020012
43
20
12
one at the head, and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had been laid.
field: 43020013
43
20
13
And they say to her, `Woman, why dost thou weep?' she saith to them, `Because they took away my Lord, and I have not known where they laid him;'
field: 43020014
43
20
14
and these things having said, she turned backward, and seeth Jesus standing, and she had not known that it is Jesus.
field: 43020015
43
20
15
Jesus saith to her, `Woman, why dost thou weep? whom dost thou seek;' she, supposing that he is the gardener, saith to him, `Sir, if thou didst carry him away, tell me where thou didst lay him, and I will take him away;'
field: 43020016
43
20
16
Jesus saith to her, `Mary!' having turned, she saith to him, `Rabbouni;' that is to say, `Teacher.'
field: 43020017
43
20
17
Jesus saith to her, `Be not touching me, for I have not yet ascended unto my Father; and be going on to my brethren, and say to them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father, and to my God, and to your God.'
field: 43020018
43
20
18
Mary the Magdalene cometh, telling to the disciples that she hath seen the Lord, and `that' these things he said to her.
field: 43020019
43
20
19
It being, therefore, evening, on that day, the first of the sabbaths, and the doors having been shut where the disciples were assembled, through fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and saith to them, `Peace to you;'
field: 43020020
43
20
20
and this having said, he shewed them his hands and side; the disciples, therefore, rejoiced, having seen the Lord.
field: 43020021
43
20
21
Jesus, therefore, said to them again, `Peace to you; according as the Father hath sent me, I also send you;'
field: 43020022
43
20
22
and this having said, he breathed on `them', and saith to them, `Receive the Holy Spirit;
field: 43020023
43
20
23
if of any ye may loose the sins, they are loosed to them; if of any ye may retain, they have been retained.'
field: 43020024
43
20
24
And Thomas, one of the twelve, who is called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came;
field: 43020025
43
20
25
the other disciples, therefore, said to him, `We have seen the Lord;' and he said to them, `If I may not see in his hands the mark of the nails, and may put my finger to the mark of the nails, and may put my hand to his side, I will not believe.'
field: 43020026
43
20
26
And after eight days, again were his disciples within, and Thomas with them; Jesus cometh, the doors having been shut, and he stood in the midst, and said, `Peace to you!'
field: 43020027
43
20
27
then he saith to Thomas, `Bring thy finger hither, and see my hands, and bring thy hand, and put `it' to my side, and become not unbelieving, but believing.'
field: 43020028
43
20
28
And Thomas answered and said to him, `My Lord and my God;'
field: 43020029
43
20
29
Jesus saith to him, `Because thou hast seen me, Thomas, thou hast believed; happy those not having seen, and having believed.'
field: 43020030
43
20
30
Many indeed, therefore, other signs also did Jesus before his disciples, that are not written in this book;
field: 43020031
43
20
31
and these have been written that ye may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing ye may have life in his name.'
field: 43021001
43
21
1
After these things did Jesus manifest himself again to the disciples on the sea of Tiberias, and he did manifest himself thus:
field: 43021002
43
21
2
There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas who is called Didymus, and Nathanael from Cana of Galilee, and the `sons' of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples.
field: 43021003
43
21
3
Simon Peter saith to them, `I go away to fish;' they say to him, `We go -- we also -- with thee;' they went forth and entered into the boat immediately, and on that night they caught nothing.
field: 43021004
43
21
4
And morning being now come, Jesus stood at the shore, yet indeed the disciples did not know that it is Jesus;
field: 43021005
43
21
5
Jesus, therefore, saith to them, `Lads, have ye any meat?'
field: 43021006
43
21
6
they answered him, `No;' and he said to them, `Cast the net at the right side of the boat, and ye shall find;' they cast, therefore, and no longer were they able to draw it, from the multitude of the fishes.
field: 43021007
43
21
7
That disciple, therefore, whom Jesus was loving saith to Peter, `The Lord it is!' Simon Peter, therefore, having heard that it is the Lord, did gird on the outer coat, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea;
field: 43021008
43
21
8
and the other disciples came by the little boat, for they were not far from the land, but as it were about two hundred cubits off, dragging the net of the fishes;
field: 43021009
43
21
9
when, therefore, they came to the land, they behold a fire of coals lying, and a fish lying on it, and bread.
field: 43021010
43
21
10
Jesus saith to them, `Bring ye from the fishes that ye caught now;'
field: 43021011
43
21
11
Simon Peter went up, and drew the net up on the land, full of great fishes, an hundred fifty and three, and though they were so many, the net was not rent.
field: 43021012
43
21
12
Jesus saith to them, `Come ye, dine;' and none of the disciples was venturing to inquire of him, `Who art thou?' knowing that it is the Lord;
field: 43021013
43
21
13
Jesus, therefore, doth come and take the bread and give to them, and the fish in like manner;
field: 43021014
43
21
14
this `is' now a third time Jesus was manifested to his disciples, having been raised from the dead.
field: 43021015
43
21
15
When, therefore, they dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, `Simon, `son' of Jonas, dost thou love me more than these?' he saith to him, `Yes, Lord; thou hast known that I dearly love thee;' he saith to him, `Feed my lambs.'
field: 43021016
43
21
16
He saith to him again, a second time, `Simon, `son' of Jonas, dost thou love me?' he saith to him, `Yes, Lord; thou hast known that I dearly love thee;' he saith to him, `Tend my sheep.'
field: 43021017
43
21
17
He saith to him the third time, `Simon, `son' of Jonas, dost thou dearly love me?' Peter was grieved that he said to him the third time, `Dost thou dearly love me?' and he said to him, `Lord, thou hast known all things; thou dost know that I dearly love thee.' Jesus saith to him, `Feed my sheep;
field: 43021018
43
21
18
verily, verily, I say to thee, When thou wast younger, thou wast girding thyself and wast walking whither thou didst will, but when thou mayest be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another will gird thee, and shall carry `thee' whither thou dost not will;'
field: 43021019
43
21
19
and this he said, signifying by what death he shall glorify God; and having said this, he saith to him, `Be following me.'
field: 43021020
43
21
20
And Peter having turned about doth see the disciple whom Jesus was loving following, (who also reclined in the supper on his breast, and said, `Sir, who is he who is delivering thee up?')
field: 43021021
43
21
21
Peter having seen this one, saith to Jesus, `Lord, and what of this one?'
field: 43021022
43
21
22
Jesus saith to him, `If him I will to remain till I come, what -- to thee? be thou following me.' This word, therefore, went forth to the brethren that that disciple doth not die,
field: 43021023
43
21
23
yet Jesus did not say to him, that he doth not die, but, `If him I will to remain till I come, what -- to thee?'
field: 43021024
43
21
24
this is the disciple who is testifying concerning these things, and he wrote these things, and we have known that his testimony is true.
field: 43021025
43
21
25
And there are also many other things -- as many as Jesus did -- which, if they may be written one by one, not even the world itself I think to have place for the books written. Amen.
field: 44001001
44

1
The former account, indeed, I made concerning all things, O Theophilus, that Jesus began both to do and to teach,
field: 44001002
44
1
2
till the day in which, having given command, through the Holy Spirit, to the apostles whom he did choose out, he was taken up,
field: 44001003
44
1
3
to whom also he did present himself alive after his suffering, in many certain proofs, through forty days being seen by them, and speaking the things concerning the reign of God.
field: 44001004
44
1
4
And being assembled together with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, `saith he,' `Ye did hear of me;
field: 44001005
44
1
5
because John, indeed, baptized with water, and ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit -- after not many days.'
field: 44001006
44
1
6
They, therefore, indeed, having come together, were questioning him, saying, `Lord, dost thou at this time restore the reign to Israel?'
field: 44001007
44
1
7
and he said unto them, `It is not yours to know times or seasons that the Father did appoint in His own authority;
field: 44001008
44
1
8
but ye shall receive power at the coming of the Holy Spirit upon you, and ye shall be witnesses to me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and unto the end of the earth.'
field: 44001009
44
1
9
And these things having said -- they beholding -- he was taken up, and a cloud did receive him up from their sight;
field: 44001010
44
1
10
and as they were looking stedfastly to the heaven in his going on, then, lo, two men stood by them in white apparel,
field: 44001011
44
1
11
who also said, `Men, Galileans, why do ye stand gazing into the heaven? this Jesus who was received up from you into the heaven, shall so come in what manner ye saw him going on to the heaven.'
field: 44001012
44
1
12
Then did they return to Jerusalem from the mount that is called of Olives, that is near Jerusalem, a sabbath's journey;
field: 44001013
44
1
13
and when they came in, they went up to the upper room, where were abiding both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James, of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zelotes, and Judas, of James;
field: 44001014
44
1
14
these all were continuing with one accord in prayer and supplication, with women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
field: 44001015
44
1
15
And in these days, Peter having risen up in the midst of the disciples, said, (the multitude also of the names at the same place was, as it were, an hundred and twenty,)
field: 44001016
44
1
16
`Men, brethren, it behoved this Writing that it be fulfilled that beforehand the Holy Spirit spake through the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus,
field: 44001017
44
1
17
because he was numbered among us, and did receive the share in this ministration,
field: 44001018
44
1
18
this one, indeed, then, purchased a field out of the reward of unrighteousness, and falling headlong, burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed forth,
field: 44001019
44
1
19
and it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem, insomuch that that place is called, in their proper dialect, Aceldama, that is, field of blood,
field: 44001020
44
1
20
for it hath been written in the book of Psalms: Let his lodging-place become desolate, and let no one be dwelling in it, and his oversight let another take.
field: 44001021
44
1
21
`It behoveth, therefore, of the men who did go with us during all the time in which the Lord Jesus went in and went out among us,
field: 44001022
44
1
22
beginning from the baptism of John, unto the day in which he was received up from us, one of these to become with us a witness of his rising again.'
field: 44001023
44
1
23
And they set two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias,
field: 44001024
44
1
24
and having prayed, they said, `Thou, Lord, who art knowing the heart of all, shew which one thou didst choose of these two
field: 44001025
44
1
25
to receive the share of this ministration and apostleship, from which Judas, by transgression, did fall, to go on to his proper place;'
field: 44001026
44
1
26
and they gave their lots, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
field: 44002001
44
2
1
And in the day of the Pentecost being fulfilled, they were all with one accord at the same place,
field: 44002002
44
2
2
and there came suddenly out of the heaven a sound as of a bearing violent breath, and it filled all the house where they were sitting,
field: 44002003
44
2
3
and there appeared to them divided tongues, as it were of fire; it sat also upon each one of them,
field: 44002004
44
2
4
and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, according as the Spirit was giving them to declare.
field: 44002005
44
2
5
And there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation of those under the heaven,
field: 44002006
44
2
6
and the rumour of this having come, the multitude came together, and was confounded, because they were each one hearing them speaking in his proper dialect,
field: 44002007
44
2
7
and they were all amazed, and did wonder, saying one unto another, `Lo, are not all these who are speaking Galileans?
field: 44002008
44
2
8
and how do we hear, each in our proper dialect, in which we were born?
field: 44002009
44
2
9
Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and those dwelling in Mesopotamia, in Judea also, and Cappadocia, Pontus, and Asia,
field: 44002010
44
2
10
Phrygia also, and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Libya, that `are' along Cyrene, and the strangers of Rome, both Jews and proselytes,
field: 44002011
44
2
11
Cretes and Arabians, we did hear them speaking in our tongues the great things of God.'
field: 44002012
44
2
12
And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one unto another, `What would this wish to be?'
field: 44002013
44
2
13
and others mocking said, -- `They are full of sweet wine;'
field: 44002014
44
2
14
and Peter having stood up with the eleven, lifted up his voice and declared to them, `Men, Jews! and all those dwelling in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and harken to my sayings,
field: 44002015
44
2
15
for these are not drunken, as ye take it up, for it is the third hour of the day.
field: 44002016
44
2
16
`But this is that which hath been spoken through the prophet Joel:
field: 44002017
44
2
17
And it shall be in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams;
field: 44002018
44
2
18
and also upon My men-servants, and upon My maid-servants, in those days, I will pour out of My Spirit, and they shall prophesy;
field: 44002019
44
2
19
and I will give wonders in the heaven above, and signs upon the earth beneath -- blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke,
field: 44002020
44
2
20
the sun shall be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the coming of the day of the Lord -- the great and illustrious;
field: 44002021
44
2
21
and it shall be, every one -- whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, he shall be saved.
field: 44002022
44
2
22
`Men, Israelites! hear these words, Jesus the Nazarene, a man approved of God among you by mighty works, and wonders, and signs, that God did through him in the midst of you, according as also ye yourselves have known;
field: 44002023
44
2
23
this one, by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, being given out, having taken by lawless hands, having crucified -- ye did slay;
field: 44002024
44
2
24
whom God did raise up, having loosed the pains of the death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it,
field: 44002025
44
2
25
for David saith in regard to him: I foresaw the Lord always before me -- because He is on my right hand -- that I may not be moved;
field: 44002026
44
2
26
because of this was my heart cheered, and my tongue was glad, and yet -- my flesh also shall rest on hope,
field: 44002027
44
2
27
because Thou wilt not leave my soul to hades, nor wilt Thou give Thy Kind One to see corruption;
field: 44002028
44
2
28
Thou didst make known to me ways of life, Thou shalt fill me with joy with Thy countenance.
field: 44002029
44
2
29
`Men, brethren! it is permitted to speak with freedom unto you concerning the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is among us unto this day;
field: 44002030
44
2
30
a prophet, therefore, being, and knowing that with an oath God did swear to him, out of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, to raise up the Christ, to sit upon his throne,
field: 44002031
44
2
31
having foreseen, he did speak concerning the rising again of the Christ, that his soul was not left to hades, nor did his flesh see corruption.
field: 44002032
44
2
32
`This Jesus did God raise up, of which we are all witnesses;
field: 44002033
44
2
33
at the right hand then of God having been exalted -- also the promise of the Holy Spirit having received from the Father -- he was shedding forth this, which now ye see and hear;
field: 44002034
44
2
34
for David did not go up to the heavens, and he saith himself: The Lord saith to my lord, Sit thou at my right hand,
field: 44002035
44
2
35
till I make thy foes thy footstool;
field: 44002036
44
2
36
assuredly, therefore, let all the house of Israel know, that both Lord and Christ did God make him -- this Jesus whom ye did crucify.'
field: 44002037
44
2
37
And having heard, they were pricked to the heart; they say also to Peter, and to the rest of the apostles, `What shall we do, men, brethren?'
field: 44002038
44
2
38
and Peter said unto them, `Reform, and be baptized each of you on the name of Jesus Christ, to remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit,
field: 44002039
44
2
39
for to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all those afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call.'
field: 44002040
44
2
40
Also with many more other words he was testifying and exhorting, saying, `Be saved from this perverse generation;'
field: 44002041
44
2
41
then those, indeed, who did gladly receive his word were baptized, and there were added on that day, as it were, three thousand souls,
field: 44002042
44
2
42
and they were continuing stedfastly in the teaching of the apostles, and the fellowship, and the breaking of the bread, and the prayers.
field: 44002043
44
2
43
And fear came on every soul, many wonders also and signs were being done through the apostles,
field: 44002044
44
2
44
and all those believing were at the same place, and had all things common,
field: 44002045
44
2
45
and the possessions and the goods they were selling, and were parting them to all, according as any one had need.
field: 44002046
44
2
46
Daily also continuing with one accord in the temple, breaking also at every house bread, they were partaking of food in gladness and simplicity of heart,
field: 44002047
44
2
47
praising God, and having favour with all the people, and the Lord was adding those being saved every day to the assembly.
field: 44003001
44
3
1
And Peter and John were going up at the same time to the temple, at the hour of the prayer, the ninth `hour',
field: 44003002
44
3
2
and a certain man, being lame from the womb of his mother, was being carried, whom they were laying every day at the gate of the temple, called Beautiful, to ask a kindness from those entering into the temple,
field: 44003003
44
3
3
who, having seen Peter and John about to go into the temple, was begging to receive a kindness.
field: 44003004
44
3
4
And Peter, having looked stedfastly toward him with John, said, `Look toward us;'
field: 44003005
44
3
5
and he was giving heed to them, looking to receive something from them;
field: 44003006
44
3
6
and Peter said, `Silver and gold I have none, but what I have, that I give to thee; in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and be walking.'
field: 44003007
44
3
7
And having seized him by the right hand, he raised `him' up, and presently his feet and ankles were strengthened,
field: 44003008
44
3
8
and springing up, he stood, and was walking, and did enter with them into the temple, walking and springing, and praising God;
field: 44003009
44
3
9
and all the people saw him walking and praising God,
field: 44003010
44
3
10
they were knowing him also that this it was who for a kindness was sitting at the Beautiful gate of the temple, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what hath happened to him.
field: 44003011
44
3
11
And at the lame man who was healed holding Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch called Solomon's -- greatly amazed,
field: 44003012
44
3
12
and Peter having seen, answered unto the people, `Men, Israelites! why wonder ye at this? or on us why look ye so earnestly, as if by our own power or piety we have made him to walk?
field: 44003013
44
3
13
`The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, did glorify His child Jesus, whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, he having given judgment to release `him',
field: 44003014
44
3
14
and ye the Holy and Righteous One did deny, and desired a man -- a murderer -- to be granted to you,
field: 44003015
44
3
15
and the Prince of the life ye did kill, whom God did raise out of the dead, of which we are witnesses;
field: 44003016
44
3
16
and on the faith of his name, this one whom ye see and have known, his name made strong, even the faith that `is' through him did give to him this perfect soundness before you all.
field: 44003017
44
3
17
`And now, brethren, I have known that through ignorance ye did `it', as also your rulers;
field: 44003018
44
3
18
and God, what things before He had declared through the mouth of all His prophets, that the Christ should suffer, He did thus fulfil;
field: 44003019
44
3
19
reform ye, therefore, and turn back, for your sins being blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,
field: 44003020
44
3
20
and He may send Jesus Christ who before hath been preached to you,
field: 44003021
44
3
21
whom it behoveth heaven, indeed, to receive till times of a restitution of all things, of which God spake through the mouth of all His holy prophets from the age.
field: 44003022
44
3
22
`For Moses, indeed, unto the fathers said -- A prophet to you shall the Lord your God raise up out of your brethren, like to me; him shall ye hear in all things, as many as he may speak unto you;
field: 44003023
44
3
23
and it shall be, every soul that may not hear that prophet shall be utterly destroyed out of the people;
field: 44003024
44
3
24
and also all the prophets from Samuel and those following in order, as many as spake, did also foretell of these days.
field: 44003025
44
3
25
`Ye are sons of the prophets, and of the covenant that God made unto our fathers, saying unto Abraham: And in thy seed shall be blessed all the families of the earth;
field: 44003026
44
3
26
to you first, God, having raised up His child Jesus, did send him, blessing you, in the turning away of each one from your evil ways.'
field: 44004001
44
4
1
And as they are speaking unto the people, there came to them the priests, and the magistrate of the temple, and the Sadducees --
field: 44004002
44
4
2
being grieved because of their teaching the people, and preaching in Jesus the rising again out of the dead --
field: 44004003
44
4
3
and they laid hands upon them, and did put them in custody unto the morrow, for it was evening already;
field: 44004004
44
4
4
and many of those hearing the word did believe, and the number of the men became, as it were, five thousand.
field: 44004005
44
4
5
And it came to pass upon the morrow, there were gathered together of them the rulers, and elders, and scribes, to Jerusalem,
field: 44004006
44
4
6
and Annas the chief priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the chief priest,
field: 44004007
44
4
7
and having set them in the midst, they were inquiring, `In what power, or in what name did ye do this?'
field: 44004008
44
4
8
Then Peter, having been filled with the Holy Spirit, said unto them: `Rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,
field: 44004009
44
4
9
if we to-day are examined concerning the good deed to the ailing man, by whom he hath been saved,
field: 44004010
44
4
10
be it known to all of you, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye did crucify, whom God did raise out of the dead, in him hath this one stood by before you whole.
field: 44004011
44
4
11
`This is the stone that was set at nought by you -- the builders, that became head of a corner;
field: 44004012
44
4
12
and there is not salvation in any other, for there is no other name under the heaven that hath been given among men, in which it behoveth us to be saved.'
field: 44004013
44
4
13
And beholding the openness of Peter and John, and having perceived that they are men unlettered and plebeian, they were wondering -- they were taking knowledge also of them that with Jesus they had been --
field: 44004014
44
4
14
and seeing the man standing with them who hath been healed, they had nothing to say against `it',
field: 44004015
44
4
15
and having commanded them to go away out of the sanhedrim, they took counsel with one another,
field: 44004016
44
4
16
saying, `What shall we do to these men? because that, indeed, a notable sign hath been done through them, to all those dwelling in Jerusalem `is' manifest, and we are not able to deny `it';
field: 44004017
44
4
17
but that it may spread no further toward the people, let us strictly threaten them no more to speak in this name to any man.'
field: 44004018
44
4
18
And having called them, they charged them not to speak at all, nor to teach, in the name of Jesus,
field: 44004019
44
4
19
and Peter and John answering unto them said, `Whether it is righteous before God to hearken to you rather than to God, judge ye;
field: 44004020
44
4
20
for we cannot but speak what we did see and hear.'
field: 44004021
44
4
21
And they having further threatened `them', let them go, finding nothing how they may punish them, because of the people, because all were glorifying God for that which hath been done,
field: 44004022
44
4
22
for above forty years of age was the man upon whom had been done this sign of the healing.
field: 44004023
44
4
23
And being let go, they went unto their own friends, and declared whatever the chief priests and the elders said unto them,
field: 44004024
44
4
24
and they having heard, with one accord did lift up the voice unto God, and said, `Lord, thou `art' God, who didst make the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all that `are' in them,
field: 44004025
44
4
25
who, through the mouth of David thy servant, did say, Why did nations rage, and peoples meditate vain things?
field: 44004026
44
4
26
the kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord and against His Christ;
field: 44004027
44
4
27
for gathered together of a truth against Thy holy child Jesus, whom Thou didst anoint, were both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with nations and peoples of Israel,
field: 44004028
44
4
28
to do whatever Thy hand and Thy counsel did determine before to come to pass.
field: 44004029
44
4
29
`And now, Lord, look upon their threatenings, and grant to Thy servants with all freedom to speak Thy word,
field: 44004030
44
4
30
in the stretching forth of Thy hand, for healing, and signs, and wonders, to come to pass through the name of Thy holy child Jesus.'
field: 44004031
44
4
31
And they having prayed, the place was shaken in which they were gathered together, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and were speaking the word of God with freedom,
field: 44004032
44
4
32
and of the multitude of those who did believe the heart and the soul was one, and not one was saying that anything of the things he had was his own, but all things were to them in common.
field: 44004033
44
4
33
And with great power were the apostles giving the testimony to the rising again of the Lord Jesus, great grace also was on them all,
field: 44004034
44
4
34
for there was not any one among them who did lack, for as many as were possessors of fields, or houses, selling `them', were bringing the prices of the thing sold,
field: 44004035
44
4
35
and were laying them at the feet of the apostles, and distribution was being made to each according as any one had need.
field: 44004036
44
4
36
And Joses, who was surnamed by the apostles Barnabas -- which is, having been interpreted, Son of Comfort -- a Levite, of Cyprus by birth,
field: 44004037
44
4
37
a field being his, having sold `it', brought the money and laid `it' at the feet of the apostles.
field: 44005001
44
5
1
And a certain man, Ananias by name, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
field: 44005002
44
5
2
and did keep back of the price -- his wife also knowing -- and having brought a certain part, at the feet of the apostles he laid `it'.
field: 44005003
44
5
3
And Peter said, `Ananias, wherefore did the Adversary fill thy heart, for thee to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back of the price of the place?
field: 44005004
44
5
4
while it remained, did it not remain thine? and having been sold, in thy authority was it not? why `is' it that thou didst put in thy heart this thing? thou didst not lie to men, but to God;'
field: 44005005
44
5
5
and Ananias hearing these words, having fallen down, did expire, and great fear came upon all who heard these things,
field: 44005006
44
5
6
and having risen, the younger men wound him up, and having carried forth, they buried `him'.
field: 44005007
44
5
7
And it came to pass, about three hours after, that his wife, not knowing what hath happened, came in,
field: 44005008
44
5
8
and Peter answered her, `Tell me if for so much ye sold the place;' and she said, `Yes, for so much.'
field: 44005009
44
5
9
And Peter said unto her, `How was it agreed by you, to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? lo, the feet of those who did bury thy husband `are' at the door, and they shall carry thee forth;'
field: 44005010
44
5
10
and she fell down presently at his feet, and expired, and the young men having come in, found her dead, and having carried forth, they buried `her' by her husband;
field: 44005011
44
5
11
and great fear came upon all the assembly, and upon all who heard these things.
field: 44005012
44
5
12
And through the hands of the apostles came many signs and wonders among the people, and they were with one accord all in the porch of Solomon;
field: 44005013
44
5
13
and of the rest no one was daring to join himself to them, but the people were magnifying them,
field: 44005014
44
5
14
(and the more were believers added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women,)
field: 44005015
44
5
15
so as into the broad places to bring forth the ailing, and to lay `them' upon couches and mats, that at the coming of Peter, even `his' shadow might overshadow some one of them;
field: 44005016
44
5
16
and there were coming together also the people of the cities round about to Jerusalem, bearing ailing persons, and those harassed by unclean spirits -- who were all healed.
field: 44005017
44
5
17
And having risen, the chief priest, and all those with him -- being the sect of the Sadducees -- were filled with zeal,
field: 44005018
44
5
18
and laid their hands upon the apostles, and did put them in a public prison;
field: 44005019
44
5
19
and a messenger of the Lord through the night opened the doors of the prison, having also brought them forth, he said,
field: 44005020
44
5
20
`Go on, and standing, speak in the temple to the people all the sayings of this life;'
field: 44005021
44
5
21
and having heard, they did enter at the dawn into the temple, and were teaching. And the chief priest having come, and those with him, they called together the sanhedrim and all the senate of the sons of Israel, and they sent to the prison to have them brought,
field: 44005022
44
5
22
and the officers having come, did not find them in the prison, and having turned back, they told,
field: 44005023
44
5
23
saying -- `The prison indeed we found shut in all safety, and the keepers standing without before the doors, and having opened -- within we found no one.'
field: 44005024
44
5
24
And as the priest, and the magistrate of the temple, and the chief priests, heard these words, they were doubting concerning them to what this would come;
field: 44005025
44
5
25
and coming near, a certain one told them, saying -- `Lo, the men whom ye did put in the prison are in the temple standing and teaching the people;'
field: 44005026
44
5
26
then the magistrate having gone away with officers, brought them without violence, for they were fearing the people, lest they should be stoned;
field: 44005027
44
5
27
and having brought them, they set `them' in the sanhedrim, and the chief priest questioned them,
field: 44005028
44
5
28
saying, `Did not we strictly command you not to teach in this name? and lo, ye have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and ye intend to bring upon us the blood of this man.'
field: 44005029
44
5
29
And Peter and the apostles answering, said, `To obey God it behoveth, rather than men;
field: 44005030
44
5
30
and the God of our fathers did raise up Jesus, whom ye slew, having hanged upon a tree;
field: 44005031
44
5
31
this one God, a Prince and a Saviour, hath exalted with His right hand, to give reformation to Israel, and forgiveness of sins;
field: 44005032
44
5
32
and we are His witnesses of these sayings, and the Holy Spirit also, whom God gave to those obeying him.'
field: 44005033
44
5
33
And they having heard, were cut `to the heart', and were taking counsel to slay them,
field: 44005034
44
5
34
but a certain one, having risen up in the sanhedrim -- a Pharisee, by name Gamaliel, a teacher of law honoured by all the people -- commanded to put the apostles forth a little,
field: 44005035
44
5
35
and said unto them, `Men, Israelites, take heed to yourselves about these men, what ye are about to do,
field: 44005036
44
5
36
for before these days rose up Theudas, saying, that himself was some one, to whom a number of men did join themselves, as it were four hundred, who was slain, and all, as many as were obeying him, were scattered, and came to nought.
field: 44005037
44
5
37
`After this one rose up, Judas the Galilean, in the days of the enrollment, and drew away much people after him, and that one perished, and all, as many as were obeying him, were scattered;
field: 44005038
44
5
38
and now I say to you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone, because if this counsel or this work may be of men, it will be overthrown,
field: 44005039
44
5
39
and if it be of God, ye are not able to overthrow it, lest perhaps also ye be found fighting against God.'
field: 44005040
44
5
40
And to him they agreed, and having called near the apostles, having beaten `them', they commanded `them' not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go;
field: 44005041
44
5
41
they, indeed, then, departed from the presence of the sanhedrim, rejoicing that for his name they were counted worthy to suffer dishonour,
field: 44005042
44
5
42
every day also in the temple, and in every house, they were not ceasing teaching and proclaiming good news -- Jesus the Christ.
field: 44006001
44
6
1
And in these days, the disciples multiplying, there came a murmuring of the Hellenists at the Hebrews, because their widows were being overlooked in the daily ministration,
field: 44006002
44
6
2
and the twelve, having called near the multitude of the disciples, said, `It is not pleasing that we, having left the word of God, do minister at tables;
field: 44006003
44
6
3
look out, therefore, brethren, seven men of you who are well testified of, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may set over this necessity,
field: 44006004
44
6
4
and we to prayer, and to the ministration of the word, will give ourselves continually.'
field: 44006005
44
6
5
And the thing was pleasing before all the multitude, and they did choose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch,
field: 44006006
44
6
6
whom they did set before the apostles, and they, having prayed, laid on them `their' hands.
field: 44006007
44
6
7
And the word of God did increase, and the number of the disciples did multiply in Jerusalem exceedingly; a great multitude also of the priests were obedient to the faith.
field: 44006008
44
6
8
And Stephen, full of faith and power, was doing great wonders and signs among the people,
field: 44006009
44
6
9
and there arose certain of those of the synagogue, called of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of those from Cilicia, and Asia, disputing with Stephen,
field: 44006010
44
6
10
and they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit with which he was speaking;
field: 44006011
44
6
11
then they suborned men, saying -- `We have heard him speaking evil sayings in regard to Moses and God.'
field: 44006012
44
6
12
They did stir up also the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and having come upon `him', they caught him, and brought `him' to the sanhedrim;
field: 44006013
44
6
13
they set up also false witnesses, saying, `This one doth not cease to speak evil sayings against this holy place and the law,
field: 44006014
44
6
14
for we have heard him saying, That this Jesus the Nazarean shall overthrow this place, and shall change the customs that Moses delivered to us;'
field: 44006015
44
6
15
and gazing at him, all those sitting in the sanhedrim saw his face as it were the face of a messenger.
field: 44007001
44
7
1
And the chief priest said, `Are then these things so?'
field: 44007002
44
7
2
and he said, `Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken: The God of the glory did appear to our father Abraham, being in Mesopotamia, before his dwelling in Haran,
field: 44007003
44
7
3
and He said to him, Go forth out of thy land, and out of thy kindred, and come to a land that I shall shew thee.
field: 44007004
44
7
4
`Then having come forth out of the land of the Chaldeans, he dwelt in Haran, and from thence, after the death of his father, He did remove him to this land wherein ye now dwell,
field: 44007005
44
7
5
and He gave him no inheritance in it, not even a footstep, and did promise to give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him -- he having no child.
field: 44007006
44
7
6
`And God spake thus, That his seed shall be sojourning in a strange land, and they shall cause it to serve, and shall do it evil four hundred years,
field: 44007007
44
7
7
and the nation whom they shall serve I will judge, said God; and after these things they shall come forth and shall do Me service in this place.
field: 44007008
44
7
8
`And He gave to him a covenant of circumcision, and so he begat Isaac, and did circumcise him on the eighth day, and Isaac `begat' Jacob, and Jacob -- the twelve patriarchs;
field: 44007009
44
7
9
and the patriarchs, having been moved with jealousy, sold Joseph to Egypt, and God was with him,
field: 44007010
44
7
10
and did deliver him out of all his tribulations, and gave him favour and wisdom before Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he did set him -- governor over Egypt and all his house.
field: 44007011
44
7
11
`And there came a dearth upon all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great tribulation, and our fathers were not finding sustenance,
field: 44007012
44
7
12
and Jacob having heard that there was corn in Egypt, sent forth our fathers a first time;
field: 44007013
44
7
13
and at the second time was Joseph made known to his brethren, and Joseph's kindred became manifest to Pharaoh,
field: 44007014
44
7
14
and Joseph having sent, did call for his father Jacob, and all his kindred -- with seventy and five souls --
field: 44007015
44
7
15
and Jacob went down to Egypt, and died, himself and our fathers,
field: 44007016
44
7
16
and they were carried over into Sychem, and were laid in the tomb that Abraham bought for a price in money from the sons of Emmor, of Sychem.
field: 44007017
44
7
17
`And according as the time of the promise was drawing nigh, which God did swear to Abraham, the people increased and multiplied in Egypt,
field: 44007018
44
7
18
till another king rose, who had not known Joseph;
field: 44007019
44
7
19
this one, having dealt subtilely with our kindred, did evil to our fathers, causing to expose their babes, that they might not live;
field: 44007020
44
7
20
in which time Moses was born, and he was fair to God, and he was brought up three months in the house of his father;
field: 44007021
44
7
21
and he having been exposed, the daughter of Pharaoh took him up, and did rear him to herself for a son;
field: 44007022
44
7
22
and Moses was taught in all wisdom of the Egyptians, and he was powerful in words and in works.
field: 44007023
44
7
23
`And when forty years were fulfilled to him, it came upon his heart to look after his brethren, the sons of Israel;
field: 44007024
44
7
24
and having seen a certain one suffering injustice, he did defend, and did justice to the oppressed, having smitten the Egyptian;
field: 44007025
44
7
25
and he was supposing his brethren to understand that God through his hand doth give salvation; and they did not understand.
field: 44007026
44
7
26
`On the succeeding day, also, he shewed himself to them as they are striving, and urged them to peace, saying, Men, brethren are ye, wherefore do ye injustice to one another?
field: 44007027
44
7
27
and he who is doing injustice to the neighbour, did thrust him away, saying, Who set thee a ruler and a judge over us?
field: 44007028
44
7
28
to kill me dost thou wish, as thou didst kill yesterday the Egyptian?
field: 44007029
44

29
`And Moses fled at this word, and became a sojourner in the land of Midian, where he begat two sons,
field: 44007030
44
7
30
and forty years having been fulfilled, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sinai a messenger of the Lord, in a flame of fire of a bush,
field: 44007031
44
7
31
and Moses having seen did wonder at the sight; and he drawing near to behold, there came a voice of the Lord unto him,
field: 44007032
44
7
32
I `am' the God of thy fathers; the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. `And Moses having become terrified, durst not behold,
field: 44007033
44
7
33
and the Lord said to him, Loose the sandal of thy feet, for the place in which thou hast stood is holy ground;
field: 44007034
44
7
34
seeing I have seen the affliction of My people that `is' in Egypt, and their groaning I did hear, and came down to deliver them; and now come, I will send thee to Egypt.
field: 44007035
44
7
35
`This Moses, whom they did refuse, saying, Who did set thee a ruler and a judge? this one God a ruler and a redeemer did send, in the hand of a messenger who appeared to him in the bush;
field: 44007036
44
7
36
this one did bring them forth, having done wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness forty years;

37
this is the Moses who did say to the sons of Israel: A prophet to you shall the Lord your God raise up out of your brethren, like to me, him shall ye hear.

38
`This is he who was in the assembly in the wilderness, with the messenger who is speaking to him in the mount Sinai, and with our fathers who did receive the living oracles to give to us;

39
to whom our fathers did not wish to become obedient, but did thrust away, and turned back in their hearts to Egypt,

saying to Aaron, Make to us gods who shall go on before us, for this Moses, who brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, we have not known what hath happened to him.

`And they made a calf in those days, and brought a sacrifice to the idol, and were rejoicing in the works of their hands,
field: 44007042
44
7
42
and God did turn, and did give them up to do service to the host of the heaven, according as it hath been written in the scroll of the prophets: Slain beasts and sacrifices did ye offer to Me forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
field: 44007043
44

`The tabernacle of the testimony was among our fathers in the wilderness, according as He did direct, who is speaking to Moses, to make it according to the figure that he had seen;

45
which also our fathers having in succession received, did bring in with Joshua, into the possession of the nations whom God did drive out from the presence of our fathers, till the days of David,

field: 44007049
44
7
49
The heaven `is' My throne, and the earth My footstool; what house will ye build to Me? saith the Lord, or what `is' the place of My rest?
field: 44007050
44
7
50
hath not My hand made all these things?
field: 44007051
44
7
51
`Ye stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and in ears! ye do always the Holy Spirit resist; as your fathers -- also ye;
field: 44007052
44
7
52
which of the prophets did not your fathers persecute? and they killed those who declared before about the coming of the Righteous One, of whom now ye betrayers and murderers have become,
field: 44007053
44
7
53
who received the law by arrangement of messengers, and did not keep `it'.'
field: 44007054
44
7
54
And hearing these things, they were cut to the hearts, and did gnash the teeth at him;
field: 44007055
44
7
55
and being full of the Holy Spirit, having looked stedfastly to the heaven, he saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
field: 44007056
44
7
56
and he said, `Lo, I see the heavens having been opened, and the Son of Man standing on the right hand of God.'
field: 44007057
44
7
57
And they, having cried out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and did rush with one accord upon him,
field: 44007058
44
7
58
and having cast him forth outside of the city, they were stoning `him' -- and the witnesses did put down their garments at the feet of a young man called Saul --
field: 44007059
44
7
59
and they were stoning Stephen, calling and saying, `Lord Jesus, receive my spirit;'
field: 44007060
44
7
60
and having bowed the knees, he cried with a loud voice, `Lord, mayest thou not lay to them this sin;' and this having said, he fell asleep.
field: 44008001
44
8
1
And Saul was assenting to his death, and there came in that day a great persecution upon the assembly in Jerusalem, all also were scattered abroad in the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles;
field: 44008002
44
8
2
and devout men carried away Stephen, and made great lamentation over him;
field: 44008003
44
8
3
and Saul was making havoc of the assembly, into every house entering, and haling men and women, was giving them up to prison;
field: 44008004
44
8
4
they then indeed, having been scattered, went abroad proclaiming good news -- the word.
field: 44008005
44
8
5
And Philip having gone down to a city of Samaria, was preaching to them the Christ,
field: 44008006
44
8
6
the multitudes also were giving heed to the things spoken by Philip, with one accord, in their hearing and seeing the signs that he was doing,
field: 44008007
44
8
7
for unclean spirits came forth from many who were possessed, crying with a loud voice, and many who have been paralytic and lame were healed,
field: 44008008
44
8
8
and there was great joy in that city.
field: 44008009
44
8
9
And a certain man, by name Simon, was before in the city using magic, and amazing the nation of Samaria, saying himself to be a certain great one,
field: 44008010
44
8
10
to whom they were all giving heed, from small unto great, saying, `This one is the great power of God;'
field: 44008011
44
8
11
and they were giving heed to him, because of his having for a long time amazed them with deeds of magic.
field: 44008012
44
8
12
And when they believed Philip, proclaiming good news, the things concerning the reign of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized both men and women;
field: 44008013
44
8
13
and Simon also himself did believe, and, having been baptized, he was continuing with Philip, beholding also signs and mighty acts being done, he was amazed.
field: 44008014
44
8
14
And the apostles in Jerusalem having heard that Samaria hath received the word of God, did send unto them Peter and John,
field: 44008015
44
8
15
who having come down did pray concerning them, that they may receive the Holy Spirit, --
field: 44008016
44
8
16
for as yet he was fallen upon none of them, and only they have been baptized -- to the name of the Lord Jesus;
field: 44008017
44
8
17
then were they laying hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
field: 44008018
44
8
18
And Simon, having beheld that through the laying on of the hands of the apostles, the Holy Spirit is given, brought before them money,
field: 44008019
44
8
19
saying, `Give also to me this authority, that on whomsoever I may lay the hands, he may receive the Holy Spirit.'
field: 44008020
44
8
20
And Peter said unto him, `Thy silver with thee -- may it be to destruction! because the gift of God thou didst think to possess through money;
field: 44008021
44
8
21
thou hast neither part nor lot in this thing, for thy heart is not right before God;
field: 44008022
44
8
22
reform, therefore, from this thy wickedness, and beseech God, if then the purpose of thy heart may be forgiven thee,
field: 44008023
44
8
23
for in the gall of bitterness, and bond of unrighteousness, I perceive thee being.'
field: 44008024
44
8
24
And Simon answering, said, `Beseech ye for me unto the Lord, that nothing may come upon me of the things ye have spoken.'
field: 44008025
44
8
25
They indeed, therefore, having testified fully, and spoken the word of the Lord, did turn back to Jerusalem; in many villages also of the Samaritans they did proclaim good news.
field: 44008026
44
8
26
And a messenger of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, `Arise, and go on toward the south, on the way that is going down from Jerusalem to Gaza,' -- this is desert.
field: 44008027
44
8
27
And having arisen, he went on, and lo, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch, a man of rank, of Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to worship to Jerusalem;
field: 44008028
44
8
28
he was also returning, and is sitting on his chariot, and he was reading the prophet Isaiah.
field: 44008029
44
8
29
And the Spirit said to Philip, `Go near, and be joined to this chariot;'
field: 44008030
44
8
30
and Philip having run near, heard him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, `Dost thou then know what thou dost read?'
field: 44008031
44
8
31
and he said, `Why, how am I able, if some one may not guide me?' he called Philip also, having come up, to sit with him.
field: 44008032
44
8
32
And the contents of the Writing that he was reading was this: `As a sheep unto slaughter he was led, and as a lamb before his shearer dumb, so he doth not open his mouth;
field: 44008033
44
8
33
in his humiliation his judgment was taken away, and his generation -- who shall declare? because taken from the earth is his life.'
field: 44008034
44
8
34
And the eunuch answering Philip said, `I pray thee, about whom doth the prophet say this? about himself, or about some other one?'
field: 44008035
44
8
35
and Philip having opened his mouth, and having begun from this Writing, proclaimed good news to him -- Jesus.
field: 44008036
44
8
36
And as they were going on the way, they came upon a certain water, and the eunuch said, `Lo, water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?'
field: 44008037
44
8
37
`And Philip said, `If thou dost believe out of all the heart, it is lawful;' and he answering said, `I believe Jesus Christ to be the Son of God;''
field: 44008038
44
8
38
and he commanded the chariot to stand still, and they both went down to the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him;
field: 44008039
44
8
39
and when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, and the eunuch saw him no more, for he was going on his way rejoicing;
field: 44008040
44
8
40
and Philip was found at Azotus, and passing through, he was proclaiming good news to all the cities, till his coming to Cesarea.
field: 44009001
44
9
1
And Saul, yet breathing of threatening and slaughter to the disciples of the Lord, having gone to the chief priest,
field: 44009002
44
9
2
did ask from him letters to Damascus, unto the synagogues, that if he may find any being of the way, both men and women, he may bring them bound to Jerusalem.
field: 44009003
44
9
3
And in the going, he came nigh to Damascus, and suddenly there shone round about him a light from the heaven,
field: 44009004
44
9
4
and having fallen upon the earth, he heard a voice saying to him, `Saul, Saul, why me dost thou persecute?'
field: 44009005
44
9
5
And he said, `Who art thou, Lord?' and the Lord said, `I am Jesus whom thou dost persecute; hard for thee at the pricks to kick;'
field: 44009006
44
9
6
trembling also, and astonished, he said, `Lord, what dost thou wish me to do?' and the Lord `said' unto him, `Arise, and enter into the city, and it shall be told thee what it behoveth thee to do.'
field: 44009007
44
9
7
And the men who are journeying with him stood speechless, hearing indeed the voice but seeing no one,
field: 44009008
44
9
8
and Saul arose from the earth, and his eyes having been opened, he beheld no one, and leading him by the hand they brought him to Damascus,
field: 44009009
44
9
9
and he was three days without seeing, and he did neither eat nor drink.
field: 44009010
44
9
10
And there was a certain disciple in Damascus, by name Ananias, and the Lord said unto him in a vision, `Ananias;' and he said, `Behold me, Lord;'
field: 44009011
44
9
11
and the Lord `saith' unto him, `Having risen, go on unto the street that is called Straight, and seek in the house of Judas, `one' by name Saul of Tarsus, for, lo, he doth pray,
field: 44009012
44
9
12
and he saw in a vision a man, by name Ananias, coming in, and putting a hand on him, that he may see again.'
field: 44009013
44
9
13
And Ananias answered, `Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how many evils he did to Thy saints in Jerusalem,
field: 44009014
44
9
14
and here he hath authority from the chief priests, to bind all those calling on Thy name.'
field: 44009015
44
9
15
And the Lord said unto him, `Be going on, because a choice vessel to Me is this one, to bear My name before nations and kings -- the sons also of Israel;
field: 44009016
44
9
16
for I will shew him how many things it behoveth him for My name to suffer.'
field: 44009017
44
9
17
And Ananias went away, and did enter into the house, and having put upon him `his' hands, said, `Saul, brother, the Lord hath sent me -- Jesus who did appear to thee in the way in which thou wast coming -- that thou mayest see again, and mayest be filled with the Holy Spirit.'
field: 44009018
44
9
18
And immediately there fell from his eyes as it were scales, he saw again also presently, and having risen, was baptized,
field: 44009019
44
9
19
and having received nourishment, was strengthened, and Saul was with the disciples in Damascus certain days,
field: 44009020
44
9
20
and immediately in the synagogues he was preaching the Christ, that he is the Son of God.
field: 44009021
44
9
21
And all those hearing were amazed, and said, `Is not this he who laid waist in Jerusalem those calling on this name, and hither to this intent had come, that he might bring them bound to the chief priests?'
field: 44009022
44
9
22
And Saul was still more strengthened, and he was confounding the Jews dwelling in Damascus, proving that this is the Christ.
field: 44009023
44
9
23
And when many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel together to kill him,
field: 44009024
44
9
24
and their counsel against `him' was known to Saul; they were also watching the gates both day and night, that they may kill him,
field: 44009025
44
9
25
and the disciples having taken him, by night did let him down by the wall, letting down in a basket.
field: 44009026
44
9
26
And Saul, having come to Jerusalem, did try to join himself to the disciples, and they were all afraid of him, not believing that he is a disciple,
field: 44009027
44
9
27
and Barnabas having taken him, brought `him' unto the apostles, and did declare to them how in the way he saw the Lord, and that he spake to him, and how in Damascus he was speaking boldly in the name of Jesus.
field: 44009028
44
9
28
And he was with them, coming in and going out in Jerusalem,
field: 44009029
44
9
29
and speaking boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, he was both speaking and disputing with the Hellenists, and they were taking in hand to kill him,
field: 44009030
44
9
30
and the brethren having known, brought him down to Cesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus.
field: 44009031
44
9
31
Then, indeed, the assemblies throughout all Judea, and Galilee, and Samaria, had peace, being built up, and, going on in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, they were multiplied.
field: 44009032
44
9
32
And it came to pass that Peter passing throughout all `quarters', came down also unto the saints who were dwelling at Lydda,
field: 44009033
44
9
33
and he found there a certain man, Aeneas by name -- for eight years laid upon a couch -- who was paralytic,
field: 44009034
44
9
34
and Peter said to him, `Aeneas, heal thee doth Jesus the Christ; arise and spread for thyself;' and immediately he rose,
field: 44009035
44
9
35
and all those dwelling at Lydda, and Saron saw him, and did turn to the Lord.
field: 44009036
44
9
36
And in Joppa there was a certain female disciple, by name Tabitha, (which interpreted, is called Dorcas,) this woman was full of good works and kind acts that she was doing;
field: 44009037
44
9
37
and it came to pass in those days she, having ailed, died, and having bathed her, they laid her in an upper chamber,
field: 44009038
44
9
38
and Lydda being nigh to Joppa, the disciples having heard that Peter is in that `place', sent two men unto him, calling on him not to delay to come through unto them.
field: 44009039
44
9
39
And Peter having risen, went with them, whom having come, they brought into the upper chamber, and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing coats and garments, as many as Dorcas was making while she was with them.
field: 44009040
44
9
40
And Peter having put them all forth without, having bowed the knees, did pray, and having turned unto the body said, `Tabitha, arise;' and she opened her eyes, and having seen Peter, she sat up,
field: 44009041
44
9
41
and having given her `his' hand, he lifted her up, and having called the saints and the widows, he presented her alive,
field: 44009042
44
9
42
and it became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed on the Lord;
field: 44009043
44
9
43
and it came to pass, that he remained many days in Joppa, with a certain one, Simon a tanner.
field: 44010001
44
10
1
And there was a certain man in Cesarea, by name Cornelius, a centurion from a band called Italian,
field: 44010002
44
10
2
pious, and fearing God with all his house, doing also many kind acts to the people, and beseeching God always,
field: 44010003
44
10
3
he saw in a vision manifestly, as it were the ninth hour of the day, a messenger of God coming in unto him, and saying to him, `Cornelius;'
field: 44010004
44
10
4
and he having looked earnestly on him, and becoming afraid, said, `What is it, Lord?' And he said to him, `Thy prayers and thy kind acts came up for a memorial before God,
field: 44010005
44
10
5
and now send men to Joppa, and send for a certain one Simon, who is surnamed Peter,
field: 44010006
44
10
6
this one doth lodge with a certain Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea; this one shall speak to thee what it behoveth thee to do.'
field: 44010007
44
10
7
And when the messenger who is speaking to Cornelius went away, having called two of his domestics, and a pious soldier of those waiting on him continually,
field: 44010008
44
10
8
and having declared to them all things, he sent them to Joppa.
field: 44010009
44
10
9
And on the morrow, as these are proceeding on the way, and are drawing nigh to the city, Peter went up upon the house-top to pray, about the sixth hour,
field: 44010010
44
10
10
and he became very hungry, and wished to eat; and they making ready, there fell upon him a trance,
field: 44010011
44
10
11
and he doth behold the heaven opened, and descending unto him a certain vessel, as a great sheet, bound at the four corners, and let down upon the earth,
field: 44010012
44
10
12
in which were all the four-footed beasts of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the fowls of the heaven,
field: 44010013
44
10
13
and there came a voice unto him: `Having risen, Peter, slay and eat.'
field: 44010014
44
10
14
And Peter said, `Not so, Lord; because at no time did I eat anything common or unclean;'
field: 44010015
44
10
15
and `there is' a voice again a second time unto him: `What God did cleanse, thou, declare not thou common;'
field: 44010016
44
10
16
and this was done thrice, and again was the vessel received up to the heaven.
field: 44010017
44
10
17
And as Peter was perplexed in himself what the vision that he saw might be, then, lo, the men who have been sent from Cornelius, having made inquiry for the house of Simon, stood at the gate,
field: 44010018
44
10
18
and having called, they were asking if Simon, who is surnamed Peter, doth lodge here?
field: 44010019
44
10
19
And Peter thinking about the vision, the Spirit said to him, `Lo, three men do seek thee;
field: 44010020
44
10
20
but having risen, go down and go on with them, nothing doubting, because I have sent them;'
field: 44010021
44
10
21
and Peter having come down unto the men who have been sent from Cornelius unto him, said, `Lo, I am he whom ye seek, what `is' the cause for which ye are present?'
field: 44010022
44
10
22
And they said, `Cornelius, a centurion, a man righteous and fearing God, well testified to, also, by all the nation of the Jews, was divinely warned by a holy messenger to send for thee, to his house, and to hear sayings from thee.'
field: 44010023
44
10
23
Having called them in, therefore, he lodged them, and on the morrow Peter went forth with them, and certain of the brethren from Joppa went with him,
field: 44010024
44
10
24
and on the morrow they did enter into Cesarea; and Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his kindred and near friends,
field: 44010025
44
10
25
and as it came that Peter entered in, Cornelius having met him, having fallen at `his' feet, did bow before `him';
field: 44010026
44
10
26
and Peter raised him, saying, `Stand up; I also myself am a man;'
field: 44010027
44
10
27
and talking with him he went in, and doth find many having come together.
field: 44010028
44
10
28
And he said unto them, `Ye know how it is unlawful for a man, a Jew, to keep company with, or to come unto, one of another race, but to me God did shew to call no man common or unclean;
field: 44010029
44
10
29
therefore also without gainsaying I came, having been sent for; I ask, therefore, for what matter ye did send for me?'
field: 44010030
44
10
30
And Cornelius said, `Four days ago till this hour, I was fasting, and `at' the ninth hour praying in my house, and, lo, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
field: 44010031
44
10
31
and he said, Cornelius, thy prayer was heard, and thy kind acts were remembered before God;
field: 44010032
44
10
32
send, therefore, to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter; this one doth lodge in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea, who having come, shall speak to thee;
field: 44010033
44
10
33
at once, therefore, I sent to thee; thou also didst do well, having come; now, therefore, are we all before God present to hear all things that have been commanded thee by God.'
field: 44010034
44
10
34
And Peter having opened his mouth, said, `Of a truth, I perceive that God is no respecter of persons,
field: 44010035
44
10
35
but in every nation he who is fearing Him, and is working righteousness, is acceptable to Him;
field: 44010036
44
10
36
the word that he sent to the sons of Israel, proclaiming good news -- peace through Jesus Christ (this one is Lord of all,)
field: 44010037
44
10
37
ye -- ye have known; -- the word that came throughout all Judea, having begun from Galilee, after the baptism that John preached;
field: 44010038
44
10
38
Jesus who `is' from Nazareth -- how God did anoint him with the Holy Spirit and power; who went through, doing good, and healing all those oppressed by the devil, because God was with him;
field: 44010039
44
10
39
and we -- we are witnesses of all things that he did, both in the country of the Jews, and in Jerusalem, -- whom they did slay, having hanged upon a tree.
field: 44010040
44
10
40
`This one God did raise up the third day, and gave him to become manifest,
field: 44010041
44
10
41
not to all the people, but to witnesses, to those having been chosen before by God -- to us who did eat with `him', and did drink with him, after his rising out of the dead;
field: 44010042
44
10
42
and he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify fully that it is he who hath been ordained by God judge of living and dead --
field: 44010043
44
10
43
to this one do all the prophets testify, that through his name every one that is believing in him doth receive remission of sins.'
field: 44010044
44
10
44
While Peter is yet speaking these sayings, the Holy spirit fell upon all those hearing the word,
field: 44010045
44
10
45
and those of the circumcision believing were astonished -- as many as came with Peter -- because also upon the nations the gift of the Holy Spirit hath been poured out,
field: 44010046
44
10
46
for they were hearing them speaking with tongues and magnifying God.
field: 44010047
44
10
47
Then answered Peter, `The water is any one able to forbid, that these may not be baptized, who the Holy Spirit did receive -- even as also we?'
field: 44010048
44
10
48
he commanded them also to be baptized in the name of the Lord; then they besought him to remain certain days.
field: 44011001
44
11
1
And the apostles and the brethren who are in Judea heard that also the nations did receive the word of God,
field: 44011002
44
11
2
and when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision were contending with him,
field: 44011003
44
11
3
saying -- `Unto men uncircumcised thou didst go in, and didst eat with them!'
field: 44011004
44
11
4
And Peter having begun, did expound to them in order saying,
field: 44011005
44
11
5
`I was in the city of Joppa praying, and I saw in a trance a vision, a certain vessel coming down, as a great sheet by four corners being let down out of the heaven, and it came unto me;
field: 44011006
44
11
6
at which having looked stedfastly, I was considering, and I saw the four-footed beasts of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the fowls of heaven;
field: 44011007
44
11
7
and I heard a voice saying to me, Having risen, Peter, slay and eat;
field: 44011008
44
11
8
and I said, Not so, Lord; because anything common or unclean hath at no time entered into my mouth;
field: 44011009
44
11
9
and a voice did answer me a second time out of the heaven, What God did cleanse, thou -- declare not thou common.
field: 44011010
44
11
10
`And this happened thrice, and again was all drawn up to the heaven,
field: 44011011
44
11
11
and, lo, immediately, three men stood at the house in which I was, having been sent from Cesarea unto me,
field: 44011012
44
11
12
and the Spirit said to me to go with them, nothing doubting, and these six brethren also went with me, and we did enter into the house of the man,
field: 44011013
44
11
13
he declared also to us how he saw the messenger in his house standing, and saying to him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter,
field: 44011014
44
11
14
who shall speak sayings by which thou shalt be saved, thou and all thy house.
field: 44011015
44
11
15
`And in my beginning to speak, the Holy Spirit did fall upon them, even as also upon us in the beginning,
field: 44011016
44
11
16
and I remembered the saying of the Lord, how he said, John indeed did baptize with water, and ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit;
field: 44011017
44
11
17
if then the equal gift God did give to them as also to us, having believed upon the Lord Jesus Christ, I -- how was I able to withstand God?'
field: 44011018
44
11
18
And they, having heard these things, were silent, and were glorifying God, saying, `Then, indeed, also to the nations did God give the reformation to life.'
field: 44011019
44
11
19
Those, indeed, therefore, having been scattered abroad, from the tribulation that came after Stephen, went through unto Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to none except to Jews only;
field: 44011020
44
11
20
and there were certain of them men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who having entered into Antioch, were speaking unto the Hellenists, proclaiming good news -- the Lord Jesus,
field: 44011021
44
11
21
and the hand of the Lord was with them, a great number also, having believed, did turn unto the Lord.
field: 44011022
44
11
22
And the account was heard in the ears of the assembly that `is' in Jerusalem concerning them, and they sent forth Barnabas to go through unto Antioch,
field: 44011023
44
11
23
who, having come, and having seen the grace of God, was glad, and was exhorting all with purpose of heart to cleave to the Lord,
field: 44011024
44
11
24
because he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit, and of faith, and a great multitude was added to the Lord.
field: 44011025
44
11
25
And Barnabas went forth to Tarsus, to seek for Saul,
field: 44011026
44
11
26
and having found him, he brought him to Antioch, and it came to pass that they a whole year did assemble together in the assembly, and taught a great multitude, the disciples also were divinely called first in Antioch Christians.
field: 44011027
44
11
27
And in those days there came from Jerusalem prophets to Antioch,
field: 44011028
44
11
28
and one of them, by name Agabus, having stood up, did signify through the Spirit a great dearth is about to be throughout all the world -- which also came to pass in the time of Claudius Caesar --
field: 44011029
44
11
29
and the disciples, according as any one was prospering, determined each of them to send for ministration to the brethren dwelling in Judea,
field: 44011030
44
11
30
which also they did, having sent unto the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
field: 44012001
44
12
1
And about that time, Herod the king put forth his hands, to do evil to certain of those of the assembly,
field: 44012002
44
12
2
and he killed James, the brother of John, with the sword,
field: 44012003
44
12
3
and having seen that it is pleasing to the Jews, he added to lay hold of Peter also -- and they were the days of the unleavened food --
field: 44012004
44
12
4
whom also having seized, he did put in prison, having delivered `him' to four quaternions of soldiers to guard him, intending after the passover to bring him forth to the people.
field: 44012005
44
12
5
Peter, therefore, indeed, was kept in the prison, and fervent prayer was being made by the assembly unto God for him,
field: 44012006
44
12
6
and when Herod was about to bring him forth, the same night was Peter sleeping between two soldiers, having been bound with two chains, guards also before the door were keeping the prison,
field: 44012007
44
12
7
and lo, a messenger of the Lord stood by, and a light shone in the buildings, and having smitten Peter on the side, he raised him up, saying, `Rise in haste,' and his chains fell from off `his' hands.
field: 44012008
44
12
8
The messenger also said to him, `Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals;' and he did so; and he saith to him, `Put thy garment round and be following me;'
field: 44012009
44
12
9
and having gone forth, he was following him, and he knew not that it is true that which is done through the messenger, and was thinking he saw a vision,
field: 44012010
44
12
10
and having passed through a first ward, and a second, they came unto the iron gate that is leading to the city, which of its own accord did open to them, and having gone forth, they went on through one street, and immediately the messenger departed from him.
field: 44012011
44
12
11
And Peter having come to himself, said, `Now I have known of a truth that the Lord did sent forth His messenger, and did deliver me out of the hand of Herod, and all the expectation of the people of the Jews;'
field: 44012012
44
12
12
also, having considered, he came unto the house of Mary, the mother of John, who is surnamed Mark, where there were many thronged together and praying.
field: 44012013
44
12
13
And Peter having knocked at the door of the porch, there came a damsel to hearken, by name Rhoda,
field: 44012014
44
12
14
and having known the voice of Peter, from the joy she did not open the porch, but having run in, told of the standing of Peter before the porch,
field: 44012015
44
12
15
and they said unto her, `Thou art mad;' and she was confidently affirming `it' to be so, and they said, `It is his messenger;'
field: 44012016
44
12
16
and Peter was continuing knocking, and having opened, they saw him, and were astonished,
field: 44012017
44
12
17
and having beckoned to them with the hand to be silent, he declared to them how the Lord brought him out of the prison, and he said, `Declare to James and to the brethren these things;' and having gone forth, he went on to another place.
field: 44012018
44
12
18
And day having come, there was not a little stir among the soldiers what then was become of Peter,
field: 44012019
44
12
19
and Herod having sought for him, and not having found, having examined the guards, did command `them' to be led away to punishment, and having gone down from Judea to Cesarea, he was abiding `there'.
field: 44012020
44
12
20
And Herod was highly displeased with the Tyrians and Sidonians, and with one accord they came unto him, and having made a friend of Blastus, who `is' over the bed-chambers of the king, they were asking peace, because of their country being nourished from the king's;
field: 44012021
44
12
21
and on a set day, Herod having arrayed himself in kingly apparel, and having sat down upon the tribunal, was making an oration unto them,
field: 44012022
44
12
22
and the populace were shouting, `The voice of a god, and not of a man;'
field: 44012023
44
12
23
and presently there smote him a messenger of the Lord, because he did not give the glory to God, and having been eaten of worms, he expired.
field: 44012024
44
12
24
And the word of God did grow and did multiply,
field: 44012025
44
12
25
and Barnabas and Saul did turn back out of Jerusalem, having fulfilled the ministration, having taken also with `them' John, who was surnamed Mark.
field: 44013001
44
13
1
And there were certain in Antioch, in the assembly there, prophets and teachers; both Barnabas, and Simeon who is called Niger, and Lucius the Cyrenian, Manaen also -- Herod the tetrarch's foster-brother -- and Saul;
field: 44013002
44
13
2
and in their ministering to the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, `Separate ye to me both Barnabas and Saul to the work to which I have called them,'
field: 44013003
44
13
3
then having fasted, and having prayed, and having laid the hands on them, they sent `them' away.
field: 44013004
44
13
4
These, indeed, then, having been sent forth by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleucia, thence also they sailed to Cyprus,
field: 44013005
44
13
5
and having come unto Salamis, they declared the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews, and they had also John `as' a ministrant;
field: 44013006
44
13
6
and having gone through the island unto Paphos, they found a certain magian, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name `is' Bar-Jesus;
field: 44013007
44
13
7
who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man; this one having called for Barnabas and Saul, did desire to hear the word of God,
field: 44013008
44
13
8
and there withstood them Elymas the magian -- for so is his name interpreted -- seeking to pervert the proconsul from the faith.
field: 44013009
44
13
9
And Saul -- who also `is' Paul -- having been filled with the Holy Spirit, and having looked stedfastly on him,
field: 44013010
44
13
10
said, `O full of all guile, and all profligacy, son of a devil, enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease perverting the right ways of the Lord?
field: 44013011
44
13
11
and now, lo, a hand of the Lord `is' upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season;' and presently there fell upon him a mist and darkness, and he, going about, was seeking some to lead `him' by the hand;
field: 44013012
44
13
12
then the proconsul having seen what hath come to pass, did believe, being astonished at the teaching of the Lord.
field: 44013013
44
13
13
And those about Paul having set sail from Paphos, came to Perga of Pamphylia, and John having departed from them, did turn back to Jerusalem,
field: 44013014
44
13
14
and they having gone through from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia, and having gone into the synagogue on the sabbath-day, they sat down,
field: 44013015
44
13
15
and after the reading of the law and of the prophets, the chief men of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, `Men, brethren, if there be a word in you of exhortation unto the people -- say on.'
field: 44013016
44
13
16
And Paul having risen, and having beckoned with the hand, said, `Men, Israelites, and those fearing God, hearken:
field: 44013017
44
13
17
the God of this people Israel did choose our fathers, and the people He did exalt in their sojourning in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm did He bring them out of it;
field: 44013018
44
13
18
and about a period of forty years He did suffer their manners in the wilderness,
field: 44013019
44
13
19
and having destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, He did divide by lot to them their land.
field: 44013020
44
13
20
`And after these things, about four hundred and fifty years, He gave judges -- till Samuel the prophet;
field: 44013021
44
13
21
and thereafter they asked for a king, and God did give to them Saul, son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years;
field: 44013022
44
13
22
and having removed him, He did raise up to them David for king, to whom also having testified, he said, I found David, the `son' of Jesse, a man according to My heart, who shall do all My will.
field: 44013023
44
13
23
`Of this one's seed God, according to promise, did raise to Israel a Saviour -- Jesus,
field: 44013024
44
13
24
John having first preached, before his coming, a baptism of reformation to all the people of Israel;
field: 44013025
44
13
25
and as John was fulfilling the course, he said, Whom me do ye suppose to be? I am not `he', but, lo, he doth come after me, of whom I am not worthy to loose the sandal of `his' feet.
field: 44013026
44
13
26
`Men, brethren, sons of the race of Abraham, and those among you fearing God, to you was the word of this salvation sent,
field: 44013027
44
13
27
for those dwelling in Jerusalem, and their chiefs, this one not having known, also the voices of the prophets, which every sabbath are being read -- having judged `him' -- did fulfill,
field: 44013028
44
13
28
and no cause of death having found, they did ask of Pilate that he should be slain,
field: 44013029
44
13
29
and when they did complete all the things written about him, having taken `him' down from the tree, they laid him in a tomb;
field: 44013030
44
13
30
and God did raise him out of the dead,
field: 44013031
44
13
31
and he was seen for many days of those who did come up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.
field: 44013032
44
13
32
`And we to you do proclaim good news -- that the promise made unto the fathers,
field: 44013033
44
13
33
God hath in full completed this to us their children, having raised up Jesus, as also in the second Psalm it hath been written, My Son thou art -- I to-day have begotten thee.
field: 44013034
44
13
34
`And that He did raise him up out of the dead, no more to return to corruption, he hath said thus -- I will give to you the faithful kindnesses of David;
field: 44013035
44
13
35
wherefore also in another `place' he saith, Thou shalt not give Thy kind One to see corruption,
field: 44013036
44
13
36
for David, indeed, his own generation having served by the will of God, did fall asleep, and was added unto his fathers, and saw corruption,
field: 44013037
44
13
37
but he whom God did raise up, did not see corruption.
field: 44013038
44
13
38
`Let it therefore be known to you, men, brethren, that through this one to you is the forgiveness of sins declared,
field: 44013039
44
13
39
and from all things from which ye were not able in the law of Moses to be declared righteous, in this one every one who is believing is declared righteous;
field: 44013040
44
13
40
see, therefore, it may not come upon you that hath been spoken in the prophets:
field: 44013041
44
13
41
See, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish, because a work I -- I do work in your days, a work in which ye may not believe, though any one may declare `it' to you.'
field: 44013042
44
13
42
And having gone forth out of the synagogue of the Jews, the nations were calling upon `them' that on the next sabbath these sayings may be spoken to them,
field: 44013043
44
13
43
and the synagogue having been dismissed, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes did follow Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking to them, were persuading them to remain in the grace of God.
field: 44013044
44
13
44
And on the coming sabbath, almost all the city was gathered together to hear the word of God,
field: 44013045
44
13
45
and the Jews having seen the multitudes, were filled with zeal, and did contradict the things spoken by Paul -- contradicting and speaking evil.
field: 44013046
44
13
46
And speaking boldly, Paul and Barnabas said, `To you it was necessary that first the word of God be spoken, and seeing ye do thrust it away, and do not judge yourselves worthy of the life age-during, lo, we do turn to the nations;
field: 44013047
44
13
47
for so hath the Lord commanded us: I have set thee for a light of nations -- for thy being for salvation unto the end of the earth.'
field: 44013048
44
13
48
And the nations hearing were glad, and were glorifying the word of the Lord, and did believe -- as many as were appointed to life age-during;
field: 44013049
44
13
49
and the word of the Lord was spread abroad through all the region.
field: 44013050
44
13
50
And the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the first men of the city, and did raise persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and did put them out from their borders;
field: 44013051
44
13
51
and they having shaken off the dust of their feet against them, came to Iconium,
field: 44013052
44
13
52
and the disciples were filled with joy and the Holy Spirit.
field: 44014001
44
14
1
And it came to pass in Iconium, that they did enter together into the synagogue of the Jews, and spake, so that there believed both of Jews and Greeks a great multitude;
field: 44014002
44
14
2
and the unbelieving Jews did stir up and made evil the souls of the nations against the brethren;
field: 44014003
44
14
3
long time, indeed, therefore, did they abide speaking boldly in the Lord, who is testifying to the word of His grace, and granting signs and wonders to come to pass through their hands.
field: 44014004
44
14
4
And the multitude of the city was divided, and some were with the Jews, and some with the apostles,
field: 44014005
44
14
5
and when there was a purpose both of the nations and of the Jews with their rulers to use `them' despitefully, and to stone them,
field: 44014006
44
14
6
they having become aware, did flee to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra, and Derbe, and to the region round about,
field: 44014007
44
14
7
and there they were proclaiming good news.
field: 44014008
44
14
8
And a certain man in Lystra, impotent in the feet, was sitting, being lame from the womb of his mother -- who never had walked,
field: 44014009
44
14
9
this one was hearing Paul speaking, who, having stedfastly beheld him, and having seen that he hath faith to be saved,
field: 44014010
44
14
10
said with a loud voice, `Stand up on thy feet upright;' and he was springing and walking,
field: 44014011
44
14
11
and the multitudes having seen what Paul did, did lift up their voice, in the speech of Lycaonia, saying, `The gods, having become like men, did come down unto us;'
field: 44014012
44
14
12
they were calling also Barnabas Zeus, and Paul Hermes, since he was the leader in speaking.
field: 44014013
44
14
13
And the priest of the Zeus that is before their city, oxen and garlands unto the porches having brought, with the multitudes did wish to sacrifice,
field: 44014014
44
14
14
and having heard, the apostles Barnabas and Paul, having rent their garments, did spring into the multitude, crying
field: 44014015
44
14
15
and saying, `Men, why these things do ye? and we are men like-affected with you, proclaiming good news to you, from these vanities to turn unto the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all the things in them;
field: 44014016
44
14
16
who in the past generations did suffer all the nations to go on in their ways,
field: 44014017
44
14
17
though, indeed, without witness He did not leave himself, doing good -- from heaven giving rains to us, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness;'
field: 44014018
44
14
18
and these things saying, scarcely did they restrain the multitudes from sacrificing to them.
field: 44014019
44
14
19
And there came thither, from Antioch and Iconium, Jews, and they having persuaded the multitudes, and having stoned Paul, drew him outside of the city, having supposed him to be dead;
field: 44014020
44
14
20
and the disciples having surrounded him, having risen he entered into the city, and on the morrow he went forth with Barnabas to Derbe.
field: 44014021
44
14
21
Having proclaimed good news also to that city, and having discipled many, they turned back to Lystra, and Iconium, and Antioch,
field: 44014022
44
14
22
confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting to remain in the faith, and that through many tribulations it behoveth us to enter into the reign of God,
field: 44014023
44
14
23
and having appointed to them by vote elders in every assembly, having prayed with fastings, they commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed.
field: 44014024
44
14
24
And having passed through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia,
field: 44014025
44
14
25
and having spoken in Perga the word, they went down to Attalia,
field: 44014026
44
14
26
and thence did sail to Antioch, whence they had been given by the grace of God for the work that they fulfilled;
field: 44014027
44
14
27
and having come and gathered together the assembly, they declared as many things as God did with them, and that He did open to the nations a door of faith;
field: 44014028
44
14
28
and they abode there not a little time with the disciples.
field: 44015001
44
15
1
And certain having come down from Judea, were teaching the brethren -- `If ye be not circumcised after the custom of Moses, ye are not able to be saved;'
field: 44015002
44
15
2
there having been, therefore, not a little dissension and disputation to Paul and Barnabas with them, they arranged for Paul and Barnabas, and certain others of them, to go up unto the apostles and elders to Jerusalem about this question,
field: 44015003
44
15
3
they indeed, then, having been sent forward by the assembly, were passing through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the nations, and they were causing great joy to all the brethren.
field: 44015004
44
15
4
And having come to Jerusalem, they were received by the assembly, and the apostles, and the elders, they declared also as many things as God did with them;
field: 44015005
44
15
5
and there rose up certain of those of the sect of the Pharisees who believed, saying -- `It behoveth to circumcise them, to command them also to keep the law of Moses.'
field: 44015006
44
15
6
And there were gathered together the apostles and the elders, to see about this matter,
field: 44015007
44
15
7
and there having been much disputing, Peter having risen up said unto them, `Men, brethren, ye know that from former days, God among us did make choice, through my mouth, for the nations to hear the word of the good news, and to believe;
field: 44015008
44
15
8
and the heart-knowing God did bare them testimony, having given to them the Holy Spirit, even as also to us,
field: 44015009
44
15
9
and did put no difference also between us and them, by the faith having purified their hearts;
field: 44015010
44
15
10
now, therefore, why do ye tempt God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
field: 44015011
44
15
11
but, through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, we believe to be saved, even as also they.'
field: 44015012
44
15
12
And all the multitude did keep silence, and were hearkening to Barnabas and Paul, declaring as many signs and wonders as God did among the nations through them;
field: 44015013
44
15
13
and after they are silent, James answered, saying, `Men, brethren, hearken to me;
field: 44015014
44
15
14
Simeon did declare how at first God did look after to take out of the nations a people for His name,
field: 44015015
44
15
15
and to this agree the words of the prophets, as it hath been written:
field: 44015016
44
15
16
After these things I will turn back, and I will build again the tabernacle of David, that is fallen down, and its ruins I will build again, and will set it upright --
field: 44015017
44
15
17
that the residue of men may seek after the Lord, and all the nations, upon whom My name hath been called, saith the Lord, who is doing all these things.
field: 44015018
44
15
18
`Known from the ages to God are all His works;
field: 44015019
44
15
19
wherefore I judge: not to trouble those who from the nations do turn back to God,
field: 44015020
44
15
20
but to write to them to abstain from the pollutions of the idols, and the whoredom, and the strangled thing; and the blood;
field: 44015021
44
15
21
for Moses from former generations in every city hath those preaching him -- in the synagogues every sabbath being read.'
field: 44015022
44
15
22
Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole assembly, chosen men out of themselves to send to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas -- Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, leading men among the brethren --
field: 44015023
44
15
23
having written through their hand thus: `The apostles, and the elders, and the brethren, to those in Antioch, and Syria, and Cilicia, brethren, who `are' of the nations, greeting;
field: 44015024
44
15
24
seeing we have heard that certain having gone forth from us did trouble you with words, subverting your souls, saying to be circumcised and to keep the law, to whom we did give no charge,
field: 44015025
44
15
25
it seemed good to us, having come together with one accord, chosen men to send unto you, with our beloved Barnabas and Paul --
field: 44015026
44
15
26
men who have given up their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ --
field: 44015027
44
15
27
we have sent, therefore, Judas and Silas, and they by word are telling the same things.
field: 44015028
44
15
28
`For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, no more burden to lay upon you, except these necessary things:
field: 44015029
44
15
29
to abstain from things offered to idols, and blood, and a strangled thing, and whoredom; from which keeping yourselves, ye shall do well; be strong!'
field: 44015030
44
15
30
They then, indeed, having been let go, went to Antioch, and having brought the multitude together, did deliver the epistle,
field: 44015031
44
15
31
and they having read, did rejoice for the consolation;
field: 44015032
44
15
32
Judas also and Silas, being themselves also prophets, through much discourse did exhort the brethren, and confirm,
field: 44015033
44
15
33
and having passed some time, they were let go with peace from the brethren unto the apostles;
field: 44015034
44
15
34
and it seemed good to Silas to remain there still.
field: 44015035
44
15
35
And Paul and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and proclaiming good news -- with many others also -- the word of the Lord;
field: 44015036
44
15
36
and after certain days, Paul said unto Barnabas, `Having turned back again, we may look after our brethren, in every city in which we have preached the word of the Lord -- how they are.'
field: 44015037
44
15
37
And Barnabas counseled to take with `them' John called Mark,
field: 44015038
44
15
38
and Paul was not thinking it good to take him with them who withdrew from them from Pamphylia, and did not go with them to the work;
field: 44015039
44
15
39
there came, therefore, a sharp contention, so that they were parted from one another, and Barnabas having taken Mark, did sail to Cyprus,
field: 44015040
44
15
40
and Paul having chosen Silas, went forth, having been given up to the grace of God by the brethren;
field: 44015041
44
15
41
and he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the assemblies.
field: 44016001
44
16
1
And he came to Derbe and Lystra, and lo, a certain disciple was there, by name Timotheus son of a certain woman, a believing Jewess, but of a father, a Greek,
field: 44016002
44
16
2
who was well testified to by the brethren in Lystra and Iconium;
field: 44016003
44
16
3
this one did Paul wish to go forth with him, and having taken `him', he circumcised him, because of the Jews who are in those places, for they all knew his father -- that he was a Greek.
field: 44016004
44
16
4
And as they were going on through the cities, they were delivering to them the decrees to keep, that have been judged by the apostles and the elders who `are' in Jerusalem,
field: 44016005
44
16
5
then, indeed, were the assemblies established in the faith, and were abounding in number every day;
field: 44016006
44
16
6
and having gone through Phrygia and the region of Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia,
field: 44016007
44
16
7
having gone toward Mysia, they were trying to go on toward Bithynia, and the Spirit did not suffer them,
field: 44016008
44
16
8
and having passed by Mysia, they came down to Troas.
field: 44016009
44
16
9
And a vision through the night appeared to Paul -- a certain man of Macedonia was standing, calling upon him, and saying, `Having passed through to Macedonia, help us;' --
field: 44016010
44
16
10
and when he saw the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go forth to Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord hath called us to preach good news to them,
field: 44016011
44
16
11
having set sail, therefore, from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, on the morrow also to Neapolis,
field: 44016012
44
16
12
thence also to Philippi, which is a principal city of the part of Macedonia -- a colony. And we were in this city abiding certain days,
field: 44016013
44
16
13
on the sabbath-day also we went forth outside of the city, by a river, where there used to be prayer, and having sat down, we were speaking to the women who came together,
field: 44016014
44
16
14
and a certain woman, by name Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, worshipping God, was hearing, whose heart the Lord did open to attend to the things spoken by Paul;
field: 44016015
44
16
15
and when she was baptized, and her household, she did call upon us, saying, `If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, having entered into my house, remain;' and she constrained us.
field: 44016016
44
16
16
And it came to pass in our going on to prayer, a certain maid, having a spirit of Python, did meet us, who brought much employment to her masters by soothsaying,
field: 44016017
44
16
17
she having followed Paul and us, was crying, saying, `These men are servants of the Most High God, who declare to us a way of salvation;'
field: 44016018
44
16
18
and this she was doing for many days, but Paul having been grieved, and having turned, said to the spirit, `I command thee, in the name of Jesus Christ, to come forth from her;' and it came forth the same hour.
field: 44016019
44
16
19
And her masters having seen that the hope of their employment was gone, having caught Paul and Silas, drew `them' to the market-place, unto the rulers,
field: 44016020
44
16
20
and having brought them to the magistrates, they said, `These men do exceedingly trouble our city, being Jews;
field: 44016021
44
16
21
and they proclaim customs that are not lawful for us to receive nor to do, being Romans.'
field: 44016022
44
16
22
And the multitude rose up together against them, and the magistrates having torn their garments from them, were commanding to beat `them' with rods,
field: 44016023
44
16
23
many blows also having laid upon them, they cast them to prison, having given charge to the jailor to keep them safely,
field: 44016024
44
16
24
who such a charge having received, did put them to the inner prison, and their feet made fast in the stocks.
field: 44016025
44
16
25
And at midnight Paul and Silas praying, were singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were hearing them,
field: 44016026
44
16
26
and suddenly a great earthquake came, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken, opened also presently were all the doors, and of all -- the bands were loosed;
field: 44016027
44
16
27
and the jailor having come out of sleep, and having seen the doors of the prison open, having drawn a sword, was about to kill himself, supposing the prisoners to be fled,
field: 44016028
44
16
28
and Paul cried out with a loud voice, saying, `Thou mayest not do thyself any harm, for we are all here.'
field: 44016029
44
16
29
And, having asked for a light, he sprang in, and trembling he fell down before Paul and Silas,
field: 44016030
44
16
30
and having brought them forth, said, `Sirs, what must I do -- that I may be saved?'
field: 44016031
44
16
31
and they said, `Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved -- thou and thy house;'
field: 44016032
44
16
32
and they spake to him the word of the Lord, and to all those in his household;
field: 44016033
44
16
33
and having taken them, in that hour of the night, he did bathe `them' from the blows, and was baptized, himself and all his presently,
field: 44016034
44
16
34
having brought them also into his house, he set food before `them', and was glad with all the household, he having believed in God.
field: 44016035
44
16
35
And day having come, the magistrates sent the rod-bearers, saying, `Let those men go;'
field: 44016036
44
16
36
and the jailor told these words unto Paul -- `The magistrates have sent, that ye may be let go; now, therefore, having gone forth go on in peace;'
field: 44016037
44
16
37
and Paul said to them, `Having beaten us publicly uncondemned -- men, Romans being -- they did cast `us' to prison, and now privately do they cast us forth! why no! but having come themselves, let them bring us forth.'
field: 44016038
44
16
38
And the rod-bearers told to the magistrates these sayings, and they were afraid, having heard that they are Romans,
field: 44016039
44
16
39
and having come, they besought them, and having brought `them' forth, they were asking `them' to go forth from the city;
field: 44016040
44
16
40
and they, having gone forth out of the prison, entered into `the house of' Lydia, and having seen the brethren, they comforted them, and went forth.
field: 44017001
44
17
1
And having passed through Amphipolis, and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was the synagogue of the Jews,
field: 44017002
44
17
2
and according to the custom of Paul, he went in unto them, and for three sabbaths he was reasoning with them from the Writings,
field: 44017003
44
17
3
opening and alleging, `That the Christ it behoved to suffer, and to rise again out of the dead, and that this is the Christ -- Jesus whom I proclaim to you.'
field: 44017004
44
17
4
And certain of them did believe, and attached themselves to Paul and to Silas, also of the worshipping Greeks a great multitude, of the principal women also not a few.
field: 44017005
44
17
5
And the unbelieving Jews, having been moved with envy, and having taken to them of the loungers certain evil men, and having made a crowd, were setting the city in an uproar; having assailed also the house of Jason, they were seeking them to bring `them' to the populace,
field: 44017006
44
17
6
and not having found them, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the city rulers, calling aloud -- `These, having put the world in commotion, are also here present,
field: 44017007
44
17
7
whom Jason hath received; and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying another to be king -- Jesus.'
field: 44017008
44
17
8
And they troubled the multitude and the city rulers, hearing these things,
field: 44017009
44
17
9
and having taking security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.
field: 44017010
44
17
10
And the brethren immediately, through the night, sent forth both Paul and Silas to Berea, who having come, went to the synagogue of the Jews;
field: 44017011
44
17
11
and these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, they received the word with all readiness of mind, every day examining the Writings whether those things were so;
field: 44017012
44
17
12
many, indeed, therefore, of them did believe, and of the honourable Greek women and men not a few.
field: 44017013
44
17
13
And when the Jews from Thessalonica knew that also in Berea was the word of God declared by Paul, they came thither also, agitating the multitudes;
field: 44017014
44
17
14
and then immediately the brethren sent forth Paul, to go on as it were to the sea, but both Silas and Timothy were remaining there.
field: 44017015
44
17
15
And those conducting Paul, brought him unto Athens, and having received a command unto Silas and Timotheus that with all speed they may come unto him, they departed;
field: 44017016
44
17
16
and Paul waiting for them in Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, beholding the city wholly given to idolatry,
field: 44017017
44
17
17
therefore, indeed, he was reasoning in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the worshipping persons, and in the market-place every day with those who met with him.
field: 44017018
44
17
18
And certain of the Epicurean and of the Stoic philosophers, were meeting together to see him, and some were saying, `What would this seed picker wish to say?' and others, `Of strange demons he doth seem to be an announcer;' because Jesus and the rising again he did proclaim to them as good news,
field: 44017019
44
17
19
having also taken him, unto the Areopagus they brought `him', saying, `Are we able to know what `is' this new teaching that is spoken by thee,
field: 44017020
44
17
20
for certain strange things thou dost bring to our ears? we wish, then, to know what these things would wish to be;'
field: 44017021
44
17
21
and all Athenians, and the strangers sojourning, for nothing else were at leisure but to say something, and to hear some newer thing.
field: 44017022
44
17
22
And Paul, having stood in the midst of the Areopagus, said, `Men, Athenians, in all things I perceive you as over-religious;
field: 44017023
44
17
23
for passing through and contemplating your objects of worship, I found also an erection on which had been inscribed: To God -- unknown; whom, therefore -- not knowing -- ye do worship, this One I announce to you.
field: 44017024
44
17
24
`God, who did make the world, and all things in it, this One, of heaven and of earth being Lord, in temples made with hands doth not dwell,
field: 44017025
44
17
25
neither by the hands of men is He served -- needing anything, He giving to all life, and breath, and all things;
field: 44017026
44
17
26
He made also of one blood every nation of men, to dwell upon all the face of the earth -- having ordained times before appointed, and the bounds of their dwellings --
field: 44017027
44
17
27
to seek the Lord, if perhaps they did feel after Him and find, -- though, indeed, He is not far from each one of us,
field: 44017028
44
17
28
for in Him we live, and move, and are; as also certain of your poets have said: For of Him also we are offspring.
field: 44017029
44
17
29
`Being, therefore, offspring of God, we ought not to think the Godhead to be like to gold, or silver, or stone, graving of art and device of man;
field: 44017030
44
17
30
the times, indeed, therefore, of the ignorance God having overlooked, doth now command all men everywhere to reform,
field: 44017031
44
17
31
because He did set a day in which He is about to judge the world in righteousness, by a man whom He did ordain, having given assurance to all, having raised him out of the dead.'
field: 44017032
44
17
32
And having heard of a rising again of the dead, some, indeed, were mocking, but others said, `We will hear thee again concerning this;'
field: 44017033
44
17
33
and so Paul went forth from the midst of them,
field: 44017034
44
17
34
and certain men having cleaved to him, did believe, among whom `is' also Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman, by name Damaris, and others with them.
field: 44018001
44
18
1
And after these things, Paul having departed out of Athens, came to Corinth,
field: 44018002
44
18
2
and having found a certain Jew, by name Aquilas, of Pontus by birth, lately come from Italy, and Priscilla his wife -- because of Claudius having directed all the Jews to depart out of Rome -- he came to them,
field: 44018003
44
18
3
and because of being of the same craft, he did remain with them, and was working, for they were tent-makers as to craft;
field: 44018004
44
18
4
and he was reasoning in the synagogue every sabbath, persuading both Jews and Greeks.
field: 44018005
44
18
5
And when both Silas and Timotheus came down from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the Spirit, testifying fully to the Jews Jesus the Christ;
field: 44018006
44
18
6
and on their resisting and speaking evil, having shaken `his' garments, he said unto them, `Your blood `is' upon your head -- I am clean; henceforth to the nations I will go on.'
field: 44018007
44
18
7
And having departed thence, he went to the house of a certain one, by name Justus, a worshipper of God, whose house was adjoining the synagogue,
field: 44018008
44
18
8
and Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue did believe in the Lord with all his house, and many of the Corinthians hearing were believing, and they were being baptized.
field: 44018009
44
18
9
And the Lord said through a vision in the night to Paul, `Be not afraid, but be speaking and thou mayest be not silent;
field: 44018010
44
18
10
because I am with thee, and no one shall set on thee to do thee evil; because I have much people in this city;'
field: 44018011
44
18
11
and he continued a year and six months, teaching among them the word of God.
field: 44018012
44
18
12
And Gallio being proconsul of Achaia, the Jews made a rush with one accord upon Paul, and brought him unto the tribunal,
field: 44018013
44
18
13
saying -- `Against the law this one doth persuade men to worship God;'
field: 44018014
44
18
14
and Paul being about to open `his' mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, `If, indeed, then, it was anything unrighteous, or an act of wicked profligacy, O Jews, according to reason I had borne with you,
field: 44018015
44
18
15
but if it is a question concerning words and names, and of your law, look ye yourselves `to it', for a judge of these things I do not wish to be,'
field: 44018016
44
18
16
and he drave them from the tribunal;
field: 44018017
44
18
17
and all the Greeks having taken Sosthenes, the chief man of the synagogue, were beating `him' before the tribunal, and not even for these things was Gallio caring.
field: 44018018
44
18
18
And Paul having remained yet a good many days, having taken leave of the brethren, was sailing to Syria -- and with him `are' Priscilla and Aquilas -- having shorn `his' head in Cenchera, for he had a vow;
field: 44018019
44
18
19
and he came down to Ephesus, and did leave them there, and he himself having entered into the synagogue did reason with the Jews:
field: 44018020
44
18
20
and they having requested `him' to remain a longer time with them, he did not consent,
field: 44018021
44
18
21
but took leave of them, saying, `It behoveth me by all means the coming feast to keep at Jerusalem, and again I will return unto you -- God willing.' And he sailed from Ephesus,
field: 44018022
44
18
22
and having come down to Cesarea, having gone up, and having saluted the assembly, he went down to Antioch.
field: 44018023
44
18
23
And having made some stay he went forth, going through in order the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.
field: 44018024
44
18
24
And a certain Jew, Apollos by name, an Alexandrian by birth, a man of eloquence, being mighty in the Writings, came to Ephesus,
field: 44018025
44
18
25
this one was instructed in the way of the Lord, and being fervent in the Spirit, was speaking and teaching exactly the things about the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John;
field: 44018026
44
18
26
this one also began to speak boldly in the synagogue, and Aquilas and Priscilla having heard of him, took him to `them', and did more exactly expound to him the way of God,
field: 44018027
44
18
27
and he being minded to go through into Achaia, the brethren wrote to the disciples, having exhorted them to receive him, who having come, did help them much who have believed through the grace,
field: 44018028
44
18
28
for powerfully the Jews he was refuting publicly, shewing through the Writings Jesus to be the Christ.
field: 44019001
44
19
1
And it came to pass, in Apollos' being in Corinth, Paul having gone through the upper parts, came to Ephesus, and having found certain disciples,
field: 44019002
44
19
2
he said unto them, `The Holy Spirit did ye receive -- having believed?' and they said unto him, `But we did not even hear whether there is any Holy Spirit;'
field: 44019003
44
19
3
and he said unto them, `To what, then, were ye baptized?' and they said, `To John's baptism.'
field: 44019004
44
19
4
And Paul said, `John, indeed, did baptize with a baptism of reformation, saying to the people that in him who is coming after him they should believe -- that is, in the Christ -- Jesus;'
field: 44019005
44
19
5
and they, having heard, were baptized -- to the name of the Lord Jesus,
field: 44019006
44
19
6
and Paul having laid on them `his' hands, the Holy Spirit came upon them, they were speaking also with tongues, and prophesying,
field: 44019007
44
19
7
and all the men were, as it were, twelve.
field: 44019008
44
19
8
And having gone into the synagogue, he was speaking boldly for three months, reasoning and persuading the things concerning the reign of God,
field: 44019009
44
19
9
and when certain were hardened and were disbelieving, speaking evil of the way before the multitude, having departed from them, he did separate the disciples, every day reasoning in the school of a certain Tyrannus.
field: 44019010
44
19
10
And this happened for two years so that all those dwelling in Asia did hear the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks,
field: 44019011
44
19
11
mighty works also -- not common -- was God working through the hands of Paul,
field: 44019012
44
19
12
so that even unto the ailing were brought from his body handkerchiefs or aprons, and the sicknesses departed from them; the evil spirits also went forth from them.
field: 44019013
44
19
13
And certain of the wandering exorcist Jews, took upon `them' to name over those having the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, `We adjure you by Jesus, whom Paul doth preach;'
field: 44019014
44
19
14
and there were certain -- seven sons of Sceva, a Jew, a chief priest -- who are doing this thing;
field: 44019015
44
19
15
and the evil spirit, answering, said, `Jesus I know, and Paul I am acquainted with; and ye -- who are ye?'
field: 44019016
44
19
16
And the man, in whom was the evil spirit, leaping upon them, and having overcome them, prevailed against them, so that naked and wounded they did flee out of that house,
field: 44019017
44
19
17
and this became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who are dwelling at Ephesus, and fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was being magnified,
field: 44019018
44
19
18
many also of those who did believe were coming, confessing and declaring their acts,
field: 44019019
44
19
19
and many of those who had practised the curious arts, having brought the books together, were burning `them' before all; and they reckoned together the prices of them, and found `it' five myriads of silverlings;
field: 44019020
44
19
20
so powerfully was the word of God increasing and prevailing.
field: 44019021
44
19
21
And when these things were fulfilled, Paul purposed in the Spirit, having gone through Macedonia and Achaia, to go on to Jerusalem, saying -- `After my being there, it behoveth me also to see Rome;'
field: 44019022
44
19
22
and having sent to Macedonia two of those ministering to him -- Timotheus and Erastus -- he himself stayed a time in Asia.
field: 44019023
44
19
23
And there came, at that time, not a little stir about the way,
field: 44019024
44
19
24
for a certain one, Demetrius by name, a worker in silver, making silver sanctuaries of Artemis, was bringing to the artificers gain not a little,
field: 44019025
44
19
25
whom, having brought in a crowd together, and those who did work about such things, he said, `Men, ye know that by this work we have our wealth;
field: 44019026
44
19
26
and ye see and hear, that not only at Ephesus, but almost in all Asia, this Paul, having persuaded, did turn away a great multitude, saying, that they are not gods who are made by hands;
field: 44019027
44
19
27
and not only is this department in danger for us of coming into disregard, but also, that of the great goddess Artemis the temple is to be reckoned for nothing, and also her greatness is about to be brought down, whom all Asia and the world doth worship.'
field: 44019028
44
19
28
And they having heard, and having become full of wrath, were crying out, saying, `Great `is' the Artemis of the Ephesians!'
field: 44019029
44
19
29
and the whole city was filled with confusion, they rushed also with one accord into the theatre, having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, Paul's fellow-travellers.
field: 44019030
44
19
30
And on Paul's purposing to enter in unto the populace, the disciples were not suffering him,
field: 44019031
44
19
31
and certain also of the chief men of Asia, being his friends, having sent unto him, were entreating him not to venture himself into the theatre.
field: 44019032
44
19
32
Some indeed, therefore, were calling out one thing, and some another, for the assembly was confused, and the greater part did not know for what they were come together;
field: 44019033
44
19
33
and out of the multitude they put forward Alexander -- the Jews thrusting him forward -- and Alexander having beckoned with the hand, wished to make defence to the populace,
field: 44019034
44
19
34
and having known that he is a Jew, one voice came out of all, for about two hours, crying, `Great `is' the Artemis of the Ephesians!'
field: 44019035
44
19
35
And the public clerk having quieted the multitude, saith, `Men, Ephesians, why, who is the man that doth not know that the city of the Ephesians is a devotee of the great goddess Artemis, and of that which fell down from Zeus?
field: 44019036
44
19
36
these things, then, not being to be gainsaid, it is necessary for you to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.
field: 44019037
44
19
37
`For ye brought these men, who are neither temple-robbers nor speaking evil of your goddess;
field: 44019038
44
19
38
if indeed, therefore, Demetrius and the artificers with him with any one have a matter, court `days' are held, and there are proconsuls; let them accuse one another.
field: 44019039
44
19
39
`And if ye seek after anything concerning other matters, in the legal assembly it shall be determined;
field: 44019040
44
19
40
for we are also in peril of being accused of insurrection in regard to this day, there being no occasion by which we shall be able to give an account of this concourse;'
field: 44019041
44
19
41
and these things having said, he dismissed the assembly.
field: 44020001
44
20
1
And after the ceasing of the tumult, Paul having called near the disciples, and having embraced `them', went forth to go on to Macedonia;
field: 44020002
44
20
2
and having gone through those parts, and having exhorted them with many words, he came to Greece;
field: 44020003
44
20
3
having made also three months' `stay' -- a counsel of the Jews having been against him -- being about to set forth to Syria, there came `to him' a resolution of returning through Macedonia.
field: 44020004
44
20
4
And there were accompanying him unto Asia, Sopater of Berea, and of Thessalonians Aristarchus and Secundus, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timotheus, and of Asiatics Tychicus and Trophimus;
field: 44020005
44
20
5
these, having gone before, did remain for us in Troas,
field: 44020006
44
20
6
and we sailed, after the days of the unleavened food, from Philippi, and came unto them to Troas in five days, where we abode seven days.
field: 44020007
44
20
7
And on the first of the week, the disciples having been gathered together to break bread, Paul was discoursing to them, about to depart on the morrow, he was also continuing the discourse till midnight,
field: 44020008
44
20
8
and there were many lamps in the upper chamber where they were gathered together,
field: 44020009
44
20
9
and there was sitting a certain youth, by name Eutychus, upon the window -- being borne down by a deep sleep, Paul discoursing long -- he having sunk down from the sleep, fell down from the third story, and was lifted up dead.
field: 44020010
44
20
10
And Paul, having gone down, fell upon him, and having embraced `him', said, `Make no tumult, for his life is in him;'
field: 44020011
44
20
11
and having come up, and having broken bread, and having tasted, for a long time also having talked -- till daylight, so he went forth,
field: 44020012
44
20
12
and they brought up the lad alive, and were comforted in no ordinary measure.
field: 44020013
44
20
13
And we having gone before unto the ship, did sail to Assos, thence intending to take in Paul, for so he had arranged, intending himself to go on foot;
field: 44020014
44
20
14
and when he met with us at Assos, having taken him up, we came to Mitylene,
field: 44020015
44
20
15
and thence having sailed, on the morrow we came over-against Chios, and the next day we arrived at Samos, and having remained in Trogyllium, on the following day we came to Miletus,
field: 44020016
44
20
16
for Paul decided to sail past Ephesus, that there may not be to him a loss of time in Asia, for he hasted, if it were possible for him, on the day of the Pentecost to be at Jerusalem.
field: 44020017
44
20
17
And from Miletus, having sent to Ephesus, he called for the elders of the assembly,
field: 44020018
44
20
18
and when they were come unto him, he said to them, `Ye -- ye know from the first day in which I came to Asia, how, with you at all times I was;
field: 44020019
44
20
19
serving the Lord with all humility, and many tears, and temptations, that befell me in the counsels of the Jews against `me';
field: 44020020
44
20
20
how nothing I did keep back of what things are profitable, not to declare to you, and to teach you publicly, and in every house,
field: 44020021
44
20
21
testifying fully both to Jews and Greeks, toward God reformation, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
field: 44020022
44
20
22
`And now, lo, I -- bound in the Spirit -- go on to Jerusalem, the things that shall befall me in it not knowing,
field: 44020023
44
20
23
save that the Holy Spirit in every city doth testify fully, saying, that for me bonds and tribulations remain;
field: 44020024
44
20
24
but I make account of none of these, neither do I count my life precious to myself, so that I finish my course with joy, and the ministration that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify fully the good news of the grace of God.
field: 44020025
44
20
25
`And now, lo, I have known that no more shall ye see my face, -- ye all among whom I did go preaching the reign of God;
field: 44020026
44
20
26
wherefore I take you to witness this day, that I `am' clear from the blood of all,
field: 44020027
44
20
27
for I did not keep back from declaring to you all the counsel of God.
field: 44020028
44
20
28
`Take heed, therefore, to yourselves, and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit made you overseers, to feed the assembly of God that He acquired through His own blood,
field: 44020029
44
20
29
for I have known this, that there shall enter in, after my departing, grievous wolves unto you, not sparing the flock,
field: 44020030
44
20
30
and of your own selves there shall arise men, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.
field: 44020031
44
20
31
`Therefore, watch, remembering that three years, night and day, I did not cease with tears warning each one;
field: 44020032
44
20
32
and now, I commend you, brethren, to God, and to the word of His grace, that is able to build up, and to give you an inheritance among all those sanctified.
field: 44020033
44
20
33
`The silver or gold or garments of no one did I covet;
field: 44020034
44
20
34
and ye yourselves know that to my necessities, and to those who were with me, minister did these hands;
field: 44020035
44
20
35
all things I did shew you, that, thus labouring, it behoveth `us' to partake with the ailing, to be mindful also of the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.'
field: 44020036
44
20
36
And these things having said, having bowed his knees, with them all, he did pray,
field: 44020037
44
20
37
and there came a great weeping to all, and having fallen upon the neck of Paul, they were kissing him,
field: 44020038
44
20
38
sorrowing most of all for the word that he had said -- that they are about no more to see his face; and they were accompanying him to the ship.
field: 44021001
44
21
1
And it came to pass, at our sailing, having been parted from them, having run direct, we came to Coos, and the succeeding `day' to Rhodes, and thence to Patara,
field: 44021002
44
21
2
and having found a ship passing over to Phenicia, having gone on board, we sailed,
field: 44021003
44
21
3
and having discovered Cyprus, and having left it on the left, we were sailing to Syria, and did land at Tyre, for there was the ship discharging the lading.
field: 44021004
44
21
4
And having found out the disciples, we tarried there seven days, and they said to Paul, through the Spirit, not to go up to Jerusalem;
field: 44021005
44
21
5
but when it came that we completed the days, having gone forth, we went on, all bringing us on the way, with women and children, unto the outside of the city, and having bowed the knees upon the shore, we prayed,
field: 44021006
44
21
6
and having embraced one another, we embarked in the ship, and they returned to their own friends.
field: 44021007
44
21
7
And we, having finished the course, from Tyre came down to Ptolemais, and having saluted the brethren, we remained one day with them;
field: 44021008
44
21
8
and on the morrow Paul and his company having gone forth, we came to Cesarea, and having entered into the house of Philip the evangelist -- who is of the seven -- we remained with him,
field: 44021009
44
21
9
and this one had four daughters, virgins, prophesying.
field: 44021010
44
21
10
And we remaining many more days, there came down a certain one from Judea, a prophet, by name Agabus,
field: 44021011
44
21
11
and he having come unto us, and having taken up the girdle of Paul, having bound also his own hands and feet, said, `Thus saith the Holy Spirit, The man whose is this girdle -- so shall the Jews in Jerusalem bind, and they shall deliver `him' up to the hands of nations.'
field: 44021012
44
21
12
And when we heard these things, we called upon `him' -- both we, and those of that place -- not to go up to Jerusalem,
field: 44021013
44
21
13
and Paul answered, `What do ye -- weeping, and crushing mine heart? for I, not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem, am ready, for the name of the Lord Jesus;'
field: 44021014
44
21
14
and he not being persuaded, we were silent, saying, `The will of the Lord be done.'
field: 44021015
44
21
15
And after these days, having taken `our' vessels, we were going up to Jerusalem,
field: 44021016
44
21
16
and there went also of the disciples from Cesarea with us, bringing with them him with whom we may lodge, a certain Mnason of Cyprus, an aged disciple.
field: 44021017
44
21
17
And we having come to Jerusalem, the brethren did gladly receive us,
field: 44021018
44
21
18
and on the morrow Paul was going in with us unto James, all the elders also came,
field: 44021019
44
21
19
and having saluted them, he was declaring, one by one, each of the things God did among the nations through his ministration,
field: 44021020
44
21
20
and they having heard, were glorifying the Lord. They said also to him, `Thou seest, brother, how many myriads there are of Jews who have believed, and all are zealous of the law,
field: 44021021
44
21
21
and they are instructed concerning thee, that apostacy from Moses thou dost teach to all Jews among the nations, saying -- Not to circumcise the children, nor after the customs to walk;
field: 44021022
44
21
22
what then is it? certainly the multitude it behoveth to come together, for they will hear that thou hast come.
field: 44021023
44
21
23
`This, therefore, do that we say to thee: We have four men having a vow on themselves,
field: 44021024
44
21
24
these having taken, be purified with them, and be at expence with them, that they may shave the head, and all may know that the things of which they have been instructed concerning thee are nothing, but thou dost walk -- thyself also -- the law keeping.
field: 44021025
44
21
25
`And concerning those of the nations who have believed, we have written, having given judgment, that they observe no such thing, except to keep themselves both from idol-sacrifices, and blood, and a strangled thing, and whoredom.'
field: 44021026
44
21
26
Then Paul, having taken the men, on the following day, with them having purified himself, was entering into the temple, announcing the fulfilment of the days of the purification, till the offering was offered for each one of them.
field: 44021027
44
21
27
And, as the seven days were about to be fully ended, the Jews from Asia having beheld him in the temple, were stirring up all the multitude, and they laid hands upon him,
field: 44021028
44
21
28
crying out, `Men, Israelites, help! this is the man who, against the people, and the law, and this place, all everywhere is teaching; and further, also, Greeks he brought into the temple, and hath defiled this holy place;'
field: 44021029
44
21
29
for they had seen before Trophimus, the Ephesian, in the city with him, whom they were supposing that Paul brought into the temple.
field: 44021030
44
21
30
All the city also was moved and there was a running together of the people, and having laid hold on Paul, they were drawing him out of the temple, and immediately were the doors shut,
field: 44021031
44
21
31
and they seeking to kill him, a rumour came to the chief captain of the band that all Jerusalem hath been thrown into confusion,
field: 44021032
44
21
32
who, at once, having taken soldiers and centurions, ran down upon them, and they having seen the chief captain and the soldiers, did leave off beating Paul.
field: 44021033
44
21
33
Then the chief captain, having come nigh, took him, and commanded `him' to be bound with two chains, and was inquiring who he may be, and what it is he hath been doing,
field: 44021034
44
21
34
and some were crying out one thing, and some another, among the multitude, and not being able to know the certainty because of the tumult, he commanded him to be carried to the castle,
field: 44021035
44
21
35
and when he came upon the steps, it happened he was borne by the soldiers, because of the violence of the multitude,
field: 44021036
44
21
36
for the crowd of the people was following after, crying, `Away with him.'
field: 44021037
44
21
37
And Paul being about to be led into the castle, saith to the chief captain, `Is it permitted to me to say anything unto thee?' and he said, `Greek dost thou know?
field: 44021038
44
21
38
art not thou, then, the Egyptian who before these days made an uprising, and did lead into the desert the four thousand men of the assassins?'
field: 44021039
44
21
39
And Paul said, `I, indeed, am a man, a Jew, of Tarsus of Cilicia, of no mean city a citizen; and I beseech thee, suffer me to speak unto the people.'
field: 44021040
44
21
40
And he having given him leave, Paul having stood upon the stairs, did beckon with the hand to the people, and there having been a great silence, he spake unto them in the Hebrew dialect, saying:
field: 44022001
44
22
1
`Men, brethren, and fathers, hear my defence now unto you;' --
field: 44022002
44
22
2
and they having heard that in the Hebrew dialect he was speaking to them, gave the more silence, and he saith, --
field: 44022003
44
22
3
`I, indeed, am a man, a Jew, having been born in Tarsus of Cilicia, and brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, having been taught according to the exactitude of a law of the fathers, being zealous of God, as all ye are to-day.
field: 44022004
44
22
4
`And this way I persecuted unto death, binding and delivering up to prisons both men and women,
field: 44022005
44
22
5
as also the chief priest doth testify to me, and all the eldership; from whom also having received letters unto the brethren, to Damascus, I was going on, to bring also those there bound to Jerusalem that they might be punished,
field: 44022006
44
22
6
and it came to pass, in my going on and coming nigh to Damascus, about noon, suddenly out of the heaven there shone a great light round about me,
field: 44022007
44
22
7
I fell also to the ground, and I heard a voice saying to me, Saul, Saul, why me dost thou persecute?
field: 44022008
44
22
8
`And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? and he said unto me, I am Jesus the Nazarene whom thou dost persecute --
field: 44022009
44
22
9
and they who are with me the light did see, and became afraid, and the voice they heard not of him who is speaking to me --
field: 44022010
44
22
10
and I said, What shall I do, Lord? and the Lord said unto me, Having risen, go on to Damascus, and there it shall be told thee concerning all things that have been appointed for thee to do.
field: 44022011
44
22
11
`And when I did not see from the glory of that light, being led by the hand by those who are with me, I came to Damascus,
field: 44022012
44
22
12
and a certain one, Ananias, a pious man according to the law, being testified to by all the Jews dwelling `there',
field: 44022013
44
22
13
having come unto me and stood by `me', said to me, Saul, brother, look up; and I the same hour did look up to him;
field: 44022014
44
22
14
and he said, The God of our fathers did choose thee beforehand to know His will, and to see the Righteous One, and to hear a voice out of his mouth,
field: 44022015
44
22
15
because thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard;
field: 44022016
44
22
16
and now, why tarriest thou? having risen, baptize thyself, and wash away thy sins, calling upon the name of the Lord.
field: 44022017
44
22
17
`And it came to pass when I returned to Jerusalem, and while I was praying in the temple, I came into a trance,
field: 44022018
44
22
18
and I saw him saying to me, Haste and go forth in haste out of Jerusalem, because they will not receive thy testimony concerning me;
field: 44022019
44
22
19
and I said, Lord, they -- they know that I was imprisoning and was scourging in every synagogue those believing on thee;
field: 44022020
44
22
20
and when the blood of thy witness Stephen was being poured forth, I also was standing by and assenting to his death, and keeping the garments of those putting him to death;
field: 44022021
44
22
21
and he said unto me, Go, because to nations far off I will send thee.'
field: 44022022
44
22
22
And they were hearing him unto this word, and they lifted up their voice, saying, `Away from the earth with such an one; for it is not fit for him to live.'
field: 44022023
44
22
23
And they crying out and casting up their garments, and throwing dust into the air,
field: 44022024
44
22
24
the chief captain commanded him to be brought into the castle, saying, `By scourges let him be examined;' that he might know for what cause they were crying so against him.
field: 44022025
44
22
25
And as he was stretching him with the thongs, Paul said unto the centurion who was standing by, `A man, a Roman, uncondemned -- is it lawful to you to scourge;'
field: 44022026
44
22
26
and the centurion having heard, having gone near to the chief captain, told, saying, `Take heed what thou art about to do, for this man is a Roman;'
field: 44022027
44
22
27
and the chief captain having come near, said to him, `Tell me, art thou a Roman?' and he said, `Yes;'
field: 44022028
44
22
28
and the chief captain answered, `I, with a great sum, did obtain this citizenship;' but Paul said, `But I have been even born `so'.'
field: 44022029
44
22
29
Immediately, therefore, they departed from him who are about to examine him, and the chief captain also was afraid, having learned that he is a Roman, and because he had bound him,
field: 44022030
44
22
30
and on the morrow, intending to know the certainty wherefore he is accused by the Jews, he did loose him from the bonds, and commanded the chief priests and all their sanhedrim to come, and having brought down Paul, he set `him' before them.
field: 44023001
44
23
1
And Paul having earnestly beheld the sanhedrim, said, `Men, brethren, I in all good conscience have lived to God unto this day;'
field: 44023002
44
23
2
and the chief priest Ananias commanded those standing by him to smite him on the mouth,
field: 44023003
44
23
3
then Paul said unto him, `God is about to smite thee, thou whitewashed wall, and thou -- thou dost sit judging me according to the law, and, violating law, dost order me to be smitten!'
field: 44023004
44
23
4
And those who stood by said, `The chief priest of God dost thou revile?'
field: 44023005
44
23
5
and Paul said, `I did not know, brethren, that he is chief priest: for it hath been written, Of the ruler of thy people thou shalt not speak evil;'
field: 44023006
44
23
6
and Paul having known that the one part are Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, cried out in the sanhedrim, `Men, brethren, I am a Pharisee -- son of a Pharisee -- concerning hope and rising again of dead men I am judged.'
field: 44023007
44
23
7
And he having spoken this, there came a dissension of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees, and the crowd was divided,
field: 44023008
44
23
8
for Sadducees, indeed, say there is no rising again, nor messenger, nor spirit, but Pharisees confess both.
field: 44023009
44
23
9
And there came a great cry, and the scribes of the Pharisees' part having arisen, were striving, saying, `No evil do we find in this man; and if a spirit spake to him, or a messenger, we may not fight against God;'
field: 44023010
44
23
10
and a great dissension having come, the chief captain having been afraid lest Paul may be pulled to pieces by them, commanded the soldiery, having gone down, to take him by force out of the midst of them, and to bring `him' to the castle.
field: 44023011
44
23
11
And on the following night, the Lord having stood by him, said, `Take courage, Paul, for as thou didst fully testify the things concerning me at Jerusalem, so it behoveth thee also at Rome to testify.'
field: 44023012
44
23
12
And day having come, certain of the Jews having made a concourse, did anathematize themselves, saying neither to eat nor to drink till they may kill Paul;
field: 44023013
44
23
13
and they were more than forty who made this conspiracy by oath,
field: 44023014
44
23
14
who having come near to the chief priests and to the elders said, `With an anathema we did anathematize ourselves -- to taste nothing till we have killed Paul;
field: 44023015
44
23
15
now, therefore, ye, signify ye to the chief captain, with the sanhedrim, that to-morrow he may bring him down unto you, as being about to know more exactly the things concerning him; and we, before his coming nigh, are ready to put him to death.'
field: 44023016
44
23
16
And the son of Paul's sister having heard of the lying in wait, having gone and entered into the castle, told Paul,
field: 44023017
44
23
17
and Paul having called near one of the centurions, said, `This young man lead unto the chief captain, for he hath something to tell him.'
field: 44023018
44
23
18
He indeed, then, having taken him, brought him unto the chief captain, and saith, `The prisoner Paul, having called me near, asked `me' this young man to bring unto thee, having something to say to thee.'
field: 44023019
44
23
19
And the chief captain having taken him by the hand, and having withdrawn by themselves, inquired, `What is that which thou hast to tell me?'
field: 44023020
44
23
20
and he said -- `The Jews agreed to request thee, that to-morrow to the sanhedrim thou mayest bring down Paul, as being about to enquire something more exactly concerning him;
field: 44023021
44
23
21
thou, therefore, mayest thou not yield to them, for there lie in wait for him of them more than forty men, who did anathematize themselves -- not to eat nor to drink till they kill him, and now they are ready, waiting for the promise from thee.'
field: 44023022
44
23
22
The chief captain, then, indeed, let the young man go, having charged `him' to tell no one, `that these things thou didst shew unto me;'
field: 44023023
44
23
23
and having called near a certain two of the centurions, he said, `Make ready soldiers two hundred, that they may go on unto Caesarea, and horsemen seventy, and spearmen two hundred, from the third hour of the night;
field: 44023024
44
23
24
beasts also provide, that, having set Paul on, they may bring him safe unto Felix the governor;'
field: 44023025
44
23
25
he having written a letter after this description:
field: 44023026
44
23
26
`Claudius Lysias, to the most noble governor Felix, hail:
field: 44023027
44
23
27
This man having been taken by the Jews, and being about to be killed by them -- having come with the soldiery, I rescued him, having learned that he is a Roman;
field: 44023028
44
23
28
and, intending to know the cause for which they were accusing him, I brought him down to their sanhedrim,
field: 44023029
44
23
29
whom I found accused concerning questions of their law, and having no accusation worthy of death or bonds;
field: 44023030
44
23
30
and a plot having been intimated to me against this man -- about to be of the Jews -- at once I sent unto thee, having given command also to the accusers to say the things against him before thee; be strong.'
field: 44023031
44
23
31
Then, indeed, the soldiers according to that directed them, having taken up Paul, brought him through the night to Antipatris,
field: 44023032
44
23
32
and on the morrow, having suffered the horsemen to go on with him, they returned to the castle;
field: 44023033
44
23
33
those having entered into Caesarea, and delivered the letter to the governor, did present also Paul to him.
field: 44023034
44
23
34
And the governor having read `it', and inquired of what province he is, and understood that `he is' from Cilicia;
field: 44023035
44
23
35
`I will hear thee -- said he -- when thine accusers also may have come;' he also commanded him to be kept in the praetorium of Herod.
field: 44024001
44
24
1
And after five days came down the chief priest Ananias, with the elders, and a certain orator -- Tertullus, and they made manifest to the governor `the things' against Paul;
field: 44024002
44
24
2
and he having been called, Tertullus began to accuse `him', saying, `Much peace enjoying through thee, and worthy deeds being done to this nation through thy forethought,
field: 44024003
44
24
3
always, also, and everywhere we receive it, most noble Felix, with all thankfulness;
field: 44024004
44
24
4
and that I may not be further tedious to thee, I pray thee to hear us concisely in thy gentleness;
field: 44024005
44
24
5
for having found this man a pestilence, and moving a dissension to all the Jews through the world -- a ringleader also of the sect of the Nazarenes --
field: 44024006
44
24
6
who also the temple did try to profane, whom also we took, and according to our law did wish to judge,
field: 44024007
44
24
7
and Lysias the chief captain having come near, with much violence, out of our hands did take away,
field: 44024008
44
24
8
having commanded his accusers to come to thee, from whom thou mayest be able, thyself having examined, to know concerning all these things of which we accuse him;'
field: 44024009
44
24
9
and the Jews also agreed, professing these things to be so.
field: 44024010
44
24
10
And Paul answered -- the governor having beckoned to him to speak -- `Knowing `that' for many years thou hast been a judge to this nation, the more cheerfully the things concerning myself I do answer;
field: 44024011
44
24
11
thou being able to know that it is not more than twelve days to me since I went up to worship in Jerusalem,
field: 44024012
44
24
12
and neither in the temple did they find me reasoning with any one, or making a dissension of the multitude, nor in the synagogues, nor in the city;
field: 44024013
44
24
13
nor are they able to prove against me the things concerning which they now accuse me.
field: 44024014
44
24
14
`And I confess this to thee, that, according to the way that they call a sect, so serve I the God of the fathers, believing all things that in the law and the prophets have been written,
field: 44024015
44
24
15
having hope toward God, which they themselves also wait for, `that' there is about to be a rising again of the dead, both of righteous and unrighteous;
field: 44024016
44
24
16
and in this I do exercise myself, to have a conscience void of offence toward God and men always.
field: 44024017
44
24
17
`And after many years I came, about to do kind acts to my nation, and offerings,
field: 44024018
44
24
18
in which certain Jews from Asia did find me purified in the temple, not with multitude, nor with tumult,
field: 44024019
44
24
19
whom it behoveth to be present before thee, and to accuse, if they had anything against me,
field: 44024020
44
24
20
or let these same say if they found any unrighteousness in me in my standing before the sanhedrim,
field: 44024021
44
24
21
except concerning this one voice, in which I cried, standing among them -- Concerning a rising again of the dead I am judged to-day by you.'
field: 44024022
44
24
22
And having heard these things, Felix delayed them -- having known more exactly of the things concerning the way -- saying, `When Lysias the chief captain may come down, I will know fully the things concerning you;'
field: 44024023
44
24
23
having given also a direction to the centurion to keep Paul, to let `him' also have liberty, and to forbid none of his own friends to minister or to come near to him.
field: 44024024
44
24
24
And after certain days, Felix having come with Drusilla his wife, being a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith toward Christ,
field: 44024025
44
24
25
and he reasoning concerning righteousness, and temperance, and the judgment that is about to be, Felix, having become afraid, answered, `For the present be going, and having got time, I will call for thee;'
field: 44024026
44
24
26
and at the same time also hoping that money shall be given to him by Paul, that he may release him, therefore, also sending for him the oftener, he was conversing with him;
field: 44024027
44
24
27
and two years having been fulfilled, Felix received a successor, Porcius Festus; Felix also willing to lay a favour on the Jews, left Paul bound.
field: 44025001
44
25
1
Festus, therefore, having come into the province, after three days went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea,
field: 44025002
44
25
2
and the chief priest and the principal men of the Jews made manifest to him `the things' against Paul, and were calling on him,
field: 44025003
44
25
3
asking favour against him, that he may send for him to Jerusalem, making an ambush to put him to death in the way.
field: 44025004
44
25
4
Then, indeed, Festus answered that Paul is kept in Caesarea, and himself is about speedily to go on thither,
field: 44025005
44
25
5
`Therefore those able among you -- saith he -- having come down together, if there be anything in this man -- let them accuse him;'
field: 44025006
44
25
6
and having tarried among them more than ten days, having gone down to Caesarea, on the morrow having sat upon the tribunal, he commanded Paul to be brought;
field: 44025007
44
25
7
and he having come, there stood round about the Jews who have come down from Jerusalem -- many and weighty charges they are bringing against Paul, which they were not able to prove,
field: 44025008
44
25
8
he making defence -- `Neither in regard to the law of the Jews, nor in regard to the temple, nor in regard to Caesar -- did I commit any sin.'
field: 44025009
44
25
9
And Festus willing to lay on the Jews a favour, answering Paul, said, `Art thou willing, to Jerusalem having gone up, there concerning these things to be judged before me?'
field: 44025010
44
25
10
and Paul said, `At the tribunal of Caesar I am standing, where it behoveth me to be judged; to Jews I did no unrighteousness, as thou dost also very well know;
field: 44025011
44
25
11
for if indeed I am unrighteous, and anything worthy of death have done, I deprecate not to die; and if there is none of the things of which these accuse me, no one is able to make a favour of me to them; to Caesar I appeal!'
field: 44025012
44
25
12
then Festus, having communed with the council, answered, `To Caesar thou hast appealed; to Caesar thou shalt go.'
field: 44025013
44
25
13
And certain days having passed, Agrippa the king, and Bernice, came down to Caesarea saluting Festus,
field: 44025014
44
25
14
and as they were continuing there more days, Festus submitted to the king the things concerning Paul, saying, `There is a certain man, left by Felix, a prisoner,
field: 44025015
44
25
15
about whom, in my being at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews laid information, asking a decision against him,
field: 44025016
44
25
16
unto whom I answered, that it is not a custom of Romans to make a favour of any man to die, before that he who is accused may have the accusers face to face, and may receive place of defence in regard to the charge laid against `him'.
field: 44025017
44
25
17
`They, therefore, having come together -- I, making no delay, on the succeeding `day' having sat upon the tribunal, did command the man to be brought,
field: 44025018
44
25
18
concerning whom the accusers, having stood up, were bringing against `him' no accusation of the things I was thinking of,
field: 44025019
44
25
19
but certain questions concerning their own religion they had against him, and concerning a certain Jesus who was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive;
field: 44025020
44
25
20
and I, doubting in regard to the question concerning this, said, If he would wish to go on to Jerusalem, and there to be judged concerning these things --
field: 44025021
44
25
21
but Paul having appealed to be kept to the hearing of Sebastus, I did command him to be kept till I might send him unto Caesar.'
field: 44025022
44
25
22
And Agrippa said unto Festus, `I was wishing also myself to hear the man;' and he said, `To-morrow thou shalt hear him;'
field: 44025023
44
25
23
on the morrow, therefore -- on the coming of Agrippa and Bernice with much display, and they having entered into the audience chamber, with the chief captains also, and the principal men of the city, and Festus having ordered -- Paul was brought forth.
field: 44025024
44
25
24
And Festus said, `King Agrippa, and all men who are present with us, ye see this one, about whom all the multitude of the Jews did deal with me, both in Jerusalem and here, crying out, He ought not to live any longer;
field: 44025025
44
25
25
and I, having found him to have done nothing worthy of death, and he also himself having appealed to Sebastus, I decided to send him,
field: 44025026
44
25
26
concerning whom I have no certain thing to write to `my' lord, wherefore I brought him forth before you, and specially before thee, king Agrippa, that the examination having been made, I may have something to write;
field: 44025027
44
25
27
for it doth seem to me irrational, sending a prisoner, not also to signify the charges against him.'
field: 44026001
44
26
1
And Agrippa said unto Paul, `It is permitted to thee to speak for thyself;' then Paul having stretched forth the hand, was making a defence:
field: 44026002
44
26
2
`Concerning all things of which I am accused by Jews, king Agrippa, I have thought myself happy, being about to make a defence before thee to-day,
field: 44026003
44
26
3
especially knowing thee to be acquainted with all things -- both customs and questions -- among Jews; wherefore, I beseech thee, patiently to hear me.
field: 44026004
44
26
4
`The manner of my life then, indeed, from youth -- which from the beginning was among my nation, in Jerusalem -- know do all the Jews,
field: 44026005
44
26
5
knowing me before from the first, (if they may be willing to testify,) that after the most exact sect of our worship, I lived a Pharisee;
field: 44026006
44
26
6
and now for the hope of the promise made to the fathers by God, I have stood judged,
field: 44026007
44
26
7
to which our twelve tribes, intently night and day serving, do hope to come, concerning which hope I am accused, king Agrippa, by the Jews;
field: 44026008
44
26
8
why is it judged incredible with you, if God doth raise the dead?
field: 44026009
44
26
9
`I, indeed, therefore, thought with myself, that against the name of Jesus of Nazareth it behoved `me' many things to do,
field: 44026010
44
26
10
which also I did in Jerusalem, and many of the saints I in prison did shut up, from the chief priests having received the authority; they also being put to death, I gave my vote against them,
field: 44026011
44
26
11
and in every synagogue, often punishing them, I was constraining `them' to speak evil, being also exceedingly mad against them, I was also persecuting `them' even unto strange cities.
field: 44026012
44
26
12
`In which things, also, going on to Damascus -- with authority and commission from the chief priests --
field: 44026013
44
26
13
at mid-day, I saw in the way, O king, out of heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me a light -- and those going on with me;
field: 44026014
44
26
14
and we all having fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew dialect, Saul, Saul, why me dost thou persecute? hard for thee against pricks to kick!
field: 44026015
44
26
15
`And I said, Who art thou, Lord? and he said, I am Jesus whom thou dost persecute;
field: 44026016
44
26
16
but rise, and stand upon thy feet, for for this I appeared to thee, to appoint thee an officer and a witness both of the things thou didst see, and of the things `in which' I will appear to thee,
field: 44026017
44
26
17
delivering thee from the people, and the nations, to whom now I send thee,
field: 44026018
44
26
18
to open their eyes, to turn `them' from darkness to light, and `from' the authority of the Adversary unto God, for their receiving forgiveness of sins, and a lot among those having been sanctified, by faith that `is' toward me.
field: 44026019
44
26
19
`Whereupon, king Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision,
field: 44026020
44
26
20
but to those in Damascus first, and to those in Jerusalem, to all the region also of Judea, and to the nations, I was preaching to reform, and to turn back unto God, doing works worthy of reformation;
field: 44026021
44
26
21
because of these things the Jews -- having caught me in the temple -- were endeavouring to kill `me'.
field: 44026022
44
26
22
`Having obtained, therefore, help from God, till this day, I have stood witnessing both to small and to great, saying nothing besides the things that both the prophets and Moses spake of as about to come,
field: 44026023
44
26
23
that the Christ is to suffer, whether first by a rising from the dead, he is about to proclaim light to the people and to the nations.'
field: 44026024
44
26
24
And, he thus making a defence, Festus with a loud voice said, `Thou art mad, Paul; much learning doth turn thee mad;'
field: 44026025
44
26
25
and he saith, `I am not mad, most noble Festus, but of truth and soberness the sayings I speak forth;
field: 44026026
44
26
26
for the king doth know concerning these things, before whom also I speak boldly, for none of these things, I am persuaded, are hidden from him; for this thing hath not been done in a corner;
field: 44026027
44
26
27
thou dost believe, king Agrippa, the prophets? I have known that thou dost believe!'
field: 44026028
44
26
28
And Agrippa said unto Paul, `In a little thou dost persuade me to become a Christian!'
field: 44026029
44
26
29
and Paul said, `I would have wished to God, both in a little, and in much, not only thee, but also all those hearing me to-day, to become such as I also am -- except these bonds.'
field: 44026030
44
26
30
And, he having spoken these things, the king rose up, and the governor, Bernice also, and those sitting with them,
field: 44026031
44
26
31
and having withdrawn, they were speaking unto one another, saying -- `This man doth nothing worthy of death or of bonds;'
field: 44026032
44
26
32
and Agrippa said to Festus, `This man might have been released if he had not appealed to Caesar.'
field: 44027001
44
27
1
And when our sailing to Italy was determined, they were delivering up both Paul and certain others, prisoners, to a centurion, by name Julius, of the band of Sebastus,
field: 44027002
44
27
2
and having embarked in a ship of Adramyttium, we, being about to sail by the coasts of Asia, did set sail, there being with us Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica,
field: 44027003
44
27
3
on the next `day' also we touched at Sidon, and Julius, courteously treating Paul, did permit `him', having gone on unto friends, to receive `their' care.
field: 44027004
44
27
4
And thence, having set sail, we sailed under Cyprus, because of the winds being contrary,
field: 44027005
44
27
5
and having sailed over the sea over-against Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myria of Lycia,
field: 44027006
44
27
6
and there the centurion having found a ship of Alexandria, sailing to Italy, did put us into it,
field: 44027007
44
27
7
and having sailed slowly many days, and with difficulty coming over-against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, over-against Salmone,
field: 44027008
44
27
8
and hardly passing it, we came to a certain place called `Fair Havens,' nigh to which was the city `of' Lasaea.
field: 44027009
44
27
9
And much time being spent, and the sailing being now dangerous -- because of the fast also being already past -- Paul was admonishing,
field: 44027010
44
27
10
saying to them, `Men, I perceive that with hurt, and much damage, not only of the lading and of the ship, but also of our lives -- the voyage is about to be;'
field: 44027011
44
27
11
but the centurion to the pilot and to the shipowner gave credence more than to the things spoken by Paul;
field: 44027012
44
27
12
and the haven being incommodious to winter in, the more part gave counsel to sail thence also, if by any means they might be able, having attained to Phenice, `there' to winter, `which is' a haven of Crete, looking to the south-west and north-west,
field: 44027013
44
27
13
and a south wind blowing softly, having thought they had obtained `their' purpose, having lifted anchor, they sailed close by Crete,
field: 44027014
44
27
14
and not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, that is called Euroclydon,
field: 44027015
44
27
15
and the ship being caught, and not being able to bear up against the wind, having given `her' up, we were borne on,
field: 44027016
44
27
16
and having run under a certain little isle, called Clauda, we were hardly able to become masters of the boat,
field: 44027017
44
27
17
which having taken up, they were using helps, undergirding the ship, and fearing lest they may fall on the quicksand, having let down the mast -- so were borne on.
field: 44027018
44
27
18
And we, being exceedingly tempest-tossed, the succeeding `day' they were making a clearing,
field: 44027019
44
27
19
and on the third `day' with our own hands the tackling of the ship we cast out,
field: 44027020
44
27
20
and neither sun nor stars appearing for more days, and not a little tempest lying upon us, thenceforth all hope was taken away of our being saved.
field: 44027021
44
27
21
And there having been long fasting, then Paul having stood in the midst of them, said, `It behoved `you', indeed, O men -- having hearkened to me -- not to set sail from Crete, and to save this hurt and damage;
field: 44027022
44
27
22
and now I exhort you to be of good cheer, for there shall be no loss of life among you -- but of the ship;
field: 44027023
44
27
23
for there stood by me this night a messenger of God -- whose I am, and whom I serve --
field: 44027024
44
27
24
saying, Be not afraid Paul; before Caesar it behoveth thee to stand; and, lo, God hath granted to thee all those sailing with thee;
field: 44027025
44
27
25
wherefore be of good cheer, men! for I believe God, that so it shall be, even as it hath been spoken to me,
field: 44027026
44
27
26
and on a certain island it behoveth us to be cast.'
field: 44027027
44
27
27
And when the fourteenth night came -- we being borne up and down in the Adria -- toward the middle of the night the sailors were supposing that some country drew nigh to them;
field: 44027028
44
27
28
and having sounded they found twenty fathoms, and having gone a little farther, and again having sounded, they found fifteen fathoms,
field: 44027029
44
27
29
and fearing lest on rough places we may fall, out of the stern having cast four anchors, they were wishing day to come.
field: 44027030
44
27
30
And the sailors seeking to flee out of the ship, and having let down the boat to the sea, in pretence as `if' out of the foreship they are about to cast anchors,
field: 44027031
44
27
31
Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, `If these do not remain in the ship -- ye are not able to be saved;'
field: 44027032
44
27
32
then the soldiers did cut off the ropes of the boat, and suffered it to fall off.
field: 44027033
44
27
33
And till the day was about to be, Paul was calling upon all to partake of nourishment, saying, `Fourteen days to-day, waiting, ye continue fasting, having taken nothing,
field: 44027034
44
27
34
wherefore I call upon you to take nourishment, for this is for your safety, for of not one of you shall a hair from the head fall;'
field: 44027035
44
27
35
and having said these things, and having taken bread, he gave thanks to God before all, and having broken `it', he began to eat;
field: 44027036
44
27
36
and all having become of good cheer, themselves also took food,
field: 44027037
44
27
37
(and we were -- all the souls in the ship -- two hundred, seventy and six),
field: 44027038
44
27
38
and having eaten sufficient nourishment, they were lightening the ship, casting forth the wheat into the sea.
field: 44027039
44
27
39
And when the day came, they were not discerning the land, but a certain creek were perceiving having a beach, into which they took counsel, if possible, to thrust forward the ship,
field: 44027040
44
27
40
and the anchors having taken up, they were committing `it' to the sea, at the same time -- having loosed the bands of the rudders, and having hoisted up the mainsail to the wind -- they were making for the shore,
field: 44027041
44
27
41
and having fallen into a place of two seas, they ran the ship aground, and the fore-part, indeed, having stuck fast, did remain immoveable, but the hinder-part was broken by the violence of the waves.
field: 44027042
44
27
42
And the soldiers' counsel was that they should kill the prisoners, lest any one having swam out should escape,
field: 44027043
44
27
43
but the centurion, wishing to save Paul, hindered them from the counsel, and did command those able to swim, having cast themselves out first -- to get unto the land,
field: 44027044
44
27
44
and the rest, some indeed upon boards, and some upon certain things of the ship; and thus it came to pass that all came safe unto the land.
field: 44028001
44
28
1
And having been saved, then they knew that the island is called Melita,
field: 44028002
44
28
2
and the foreigners were shewing us no ordinary kindness, for having kindled a fire, they received us all, because of the pressing rain, and because of the cold;
field: 44028003
44
28
3
but Paul having gathered together a quantity of sticks, and having laid `them' upon the fire, a viper -- out of the heat having come -- did fasten on his hand.
field: 44028004
44
28
4
And when the foreigners saw the beast hanging from his hand, they said unto one another, `Certainly this man is a murderer, whom, having been saved out of the sea, the justice did not suffer to live;'
field: 44028005
44
28
5
he then, indeed, having shaken off the beast into the fire, suffered no evil,
field: 44028006
44
28
6
and they were expecting him to be about to be inflamed, or to fall down suddenly dead, and they, expecting `it' a long time, and seeing nothing uncommon happening to him, changing `their' minds, said he was a god.
field: 44028007
44
28
7
And in the neighbourhood of that place were lands of the principal man of the island, by name Publius, who, having received us, three days did courteously lodge `us';
field: 44028008
44
28
8
and it came to pass, the father of Publius with feverish heats and dysentery pressed, was laid, unto whom Paul having entered, and having prayed, having laid `his' hands on him, healed him;
field: 44028009
44
28
9
this, therefore, being done, the others also in the island having infirmities were coming and were healed;
field: 44028010
44
28
10
who also with many honours did honour us, and we setting sail -- they were lading `us' with the things that were necessary.
field: 44028011
44
28
11
And after three months, we set sail in a ship (that had wintered in the isle) of Alexandria, with the sign Dioscuri,
field: 44028012
44
28
12
and having landed at Syracuse, we remained three days,
field: 44028013
44
28
13
thence having gone round, we came to Rhegium, and after one day, a south wind having sprung up, the second `day' we came to Puteoli;
field: 44028014
44
28
14
where, having found brethren, we were called upon to remain with them seven days, and thus to Rome we came;
field: 44028015
44
28
15
and thence, the brethren having heard the things concerning us, came forth to meet us, unto Appii Forum, and Three Taverns -- whom Paul having seen, having given thanks to God, took courage.
field: 44028016
44
28
16
And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered up the prisoners to the captain of the barrack, but Paul was suffered to remain by himself, with the soldier guarding him.
field: 44028017
44
28
17
And it came to pass after three days, Paul called together those who are the principal men of the Jews, and they having come together, he said unto them: `Men, brethren, I -- having done nothing contrary to the people, or to the customs of the fathers -- a prisoner from Jerusalem, was delivered up to the hands of the Romans;
field: 44028018
44
28
18
who, having examined me, were wishing to release `me', because of their being no cause of death in me,
field: 44028019
44
28
19
and the Jews having spoken against `it', I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar -- not as having anything to accuse my nation of;
field: 44028020
44
28
20
for this cause, therefore, I called for you to see and to speak with `you', for because of the hope of Israel with this chain I am bound.'
field: 44028021
44
28
21
And they said unto him, `We did neither receive letters concerning thee from Judea, nor did any one who came of the brethren declare or speak any evil concerning thee,
field: 44028022
44
28
22
and we think it good from thee to hear what thou dost think, for, indeed, concerning this sect it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against;'
field: 44028023
44
28
23
and having appointed him a day, they came, more of them unto him, to the lodging, to whom he was expounding, testifying fully the reign of God, persuading them also of the things concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses, and the prophets, from morning till evening,
field: 44028024
44
28
24
and, some, indeed, were believing the things spoken, and some were not believing.
field: 44028025
44
28
25
And not being agreed with one another, they were going away, Paul having spoken one word -- `Well did the Holy Spirit speak through Isaiah the prophet unto our fathers,
field: 44028026
44
28
26
saying, Go on unto this people and say, With hearing ye shall hear, and ye shall not understand, and seeing ye shall see, and ye shall not perceive,
field: 44028027
44
28
27
for made gross was the heart of this people, and with the ears they heard heavily, and their eyes they did close, lest they may see with the eyes, and with the heart may understand, and be turned back, and I may heal them.
field: 44028028
44
28
28
`Be it known, therefore, to you, that to the nations was sent the salvation of God, these also will hear it;'
field: 44028029
44
28
29
and he having said these things, the Jews went away, having much disputation among themselves;
field: 44028030
44
28
30
and Paul remained an entire two years in his own hired `house', and was receiving all those coming in unto him,
field: 44028031
44
28
31
preaching the reign of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness -- unforbidden.
field: 45001001
45
1
1
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, a called apostle, having been separated to the good news of God --
field: 45001002
45
1
2
which He announced before through His prophets in holy writings --
field: 45001003
45
1
3
concerning His Son, (who is come of the seed of David according to the flesh,
field: 45001004
45
1
4
who is marked out Son of God in power, according to the Spirit of sanctification, by the rising again from the dead,) Jesus Christ our Lord;
field: 45001005
45
1
5
through whom we did receive grace and apostleship, for obedience of faith among all the nations, in behalf of his name;
field: 45001006
45
1
6
among whom are also ye, the called of Jesus Christ;
field: 45001007
45
1
7
to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called saints; Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and `from' the Lord Jesus Christ!
field: 45001008
45
1
8
first, indeed, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is proclaimed in the whole world;
field: 45001009
45
1
9
for God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the good news of His Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you,
field: 45001010
45
1
10
always in my prayers beseeching, if by any means now at length I shall have a prosperous journey, by the will of God, to come unto you,
field: 45001011
45
1
11
for I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, that ye may be established;
field: 45001012
45
1
12
and that is, that I may be comforted together among you, through the faith in one another, both yours and mine.
field: 45001013
45
1
13
And I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, that many times I did purpose to come unto you -- and was hindered till the present time -- that some fruit I might have also among you, even as also among the other nations.
field: 45001014
45
1
14
Both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to wise and to thoughtless, I am a debtor,
field: 45001015
45
1
15
so, as much as in me is, I am ready also to you who `are' in Rome to proclaim good news,
field: 45001016
45
1
16
for I am not ashamed of the good news of the Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation to every one who is believing, both to Jew first, and to Greek.
field: 45001017
45
1
17
For the righteousness of God in it is revealed from faith to faith, according as it hath been written, `And the righteous one by faith shall live,'
field: 45001018
45
1
18
for revealed is the wrath of God from heaven upon all impiety and unrighteousness of men, holding down the truth in unrighteousness.
field: 45001019
45
1
19
Because that which is known of God is manifest among them, for God did manifest `it' to them,
field: 45001020
45
1
20
for the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world, by the things made being understood, are plainly seen, both His eternal power and Godhead -- to their being inexcusable;
field: 45001021
45
1
21
because, having known God they did not glorify `Him' as God, nor gave thanks, but were made vain in their reasonings, and their unintelligent heart was darkened,
field: 45001022
45
1
22
professing to be wise, they were made fools,
field: 45001023
45
1
23
and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of fowls, and of quadrupeds, and of reptiles.
field: 45001024
45
1
24
Wherefore also God did give them up, in the desires of their hearts, to uncleanness, to dishonour their bodies among themselves;
field: 45001025
45
1
25
who did change the truth of God into a falsehood, and did honour and serve the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed to the ages. Amen.
field: 45001026
45
1
26
Because of this did God give them up to dishonourable affections, for even their females did change the natural use into that against nature;
field: 45001027
45
1
27
and in like manner also the males having left the natural use of the female, did burn in their longing toward one another; males with males working shame, and the recompense of their error that was fit, in themselves receiving.
field: 45001028
45
1
28
And, according as they did not approve of having God in knowledge, God gave them up to a disapproved mind, to do the things not seemly;
field: 45001029
45
1
29
having been filled with all unrighteousness, whoredom, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil dispositions; whisperers,
field: 45001030
45
1
30
evil-speakers, God-haters, insulting, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
field: 45001031
45
1
31
unintelligent, faithless, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful;
field: 45001032
45
1
32
who the righteous judgment of God having known -- that those practising such things are worthy of death -- not only do them, but also have delight with those practising them.
field: 45002001
45
2
1
Therefore, thou art inexcusable, O man -- every one who is judging -- for in that in which thou dost judge the other, thyself thou dost condemn, for the same things thou dost practise who art judging,
field: 45002002
45
2
2
and we have known that the judgment of God is according to truth, upon those practising such things.
field: 45002003
45
2
3
And dost thou think this, O man, who art judging those who such things are practising, and art doing them, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?
field: 45002004
45
2
4
or the riches of His goodness, and forbearance, and long-suffering, dost thou despise? -- not knowing that the goodness of God doth lead thee to reformation!
field: 45002005
45
2
5
but, according to thy hardness and impenitent heart, thou dost treasure up to thyself wrath, in a day of wrath and of the revelation of the righteous judgment of God,
field: 45002006
45
2
6
who shall render to each according to his works;
field: 45002007
45
2
7
to those, indeed, who in continuance of a good work, do seek glory, and honour, and incorruptibility -- life age-during;
field: 45002008
45
2
8
and to those contentious, and disobedient, indeed, to the truth, and obeying the unrighteousness -- indignation and wrath,
field: 45002009
45
2
9
tribulation and distress, upon every soul of man that is working the evil, both of Jew first, and of Greek;
field: 45002010
45
2
10
and glory, and honour, and peace, to every one who is working the good, both to Jew first, and to Greek.
field: 45002011
45
2
11
For there is no acceptance of faces with God,
field: 45002012
45
2
12
for as many as without law did sin, without law also shall perish, and as many as did sin in law, through law shall be judged,
field: 45002013
45
2
13
for not the hearers of the law `are' righteous before God, but the doers of the law shall be declared righteous: --
field: 45002014
45
2
14
For, when nations that have not a law, by nature may do the things of the law, these not having a law -- to themselves are a law;
field: 45002015
45
2
15
who do shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also witnessing with them, and between one another the thoughts accusing or else defending,
field: 45002016
45
2
16
in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men, according to my good news, through Jesus Christ.
field: 45002017
45
2
17
Lo, thou art named a Jew, and dost rest upon the law, and dost boast in God,
field: 45002018
45
2
18
and dost know the will, and dost approve the distinctions, being instructed out of the law,
field: 45002019
45
2
19
and hast confidence that thou thyself art a leader of blind ones, a light of those in darkness,
field: 45002020
45
2
20
an instructor of foolish ones, a teacher of babes, having the form of the knowledge and of the truth in the law.
field: 45002021
45
2
21
Thou, then, who art teaching another, thyself dost thou not teach?
field: 45002022
45
2
22
thou who art preaching not to steal, dost thou steal? thou who art saying not to commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou who art abhorring the idols, dost thou rob temples?
field: 45002023
45
2
23
thou who in the law dost boast, through the transgression of the law God dost thou dishonour?
field: 45002024
45
2
24
for the name of God because of you is evil spoken of among the nations, according as it hath been written.
field: 45002025
45
2
25
For circumcision, indeed, doth profit, if law thou mayest practise, but if a transgressor of law thou mayest be, thy circumcision hath become uncircumcision.
field: 45002026
45
2
26
If, therefore the uncircumcision the righteousness of the law may keep, shall not his uncircumcision for circumcision be reckoned?
field: 45002027
45
2
27
and the uncircumcision, by nature, fulfilling the law, shall judge thee who, through letter and circumcision, `art' a transgressor of law.
field: 45002028
45
2
28
For he is not a Jew who is `so' outwardly, neither `is' circumcision that which is outward in flesh;
field: 45002029
45
2
29
but a Jew `is' he who is `so' inwardly, and circumcision `is' of the heart, in spirit, not in letter, of which the praise is not of men, but of God.
field: 45003001
45
3
1
What, then, `is' the superiority of the Jew? or what the profit of the circumcision?
field: 45003002
45
3
2
much in every way; for first, indeed, that they were intrusted with the oracles of God;
field: 45003003
45
3
3
for what, if certain were faithless? shall their faithlessness the faithfulness of god make useless?
field: 45003004
45
3
4
let it not be! and let God become true, and every man false, according as it hath been written, `That Thou mayest be declared righteous in Thy words, and mayest overcome in Thy being judged.'
field: 45003005
45
3
5
And, if our unrighteousness God's righteousness doth establish, what shall we say? is God unrighteous who is inflicting the wrath? (after the manner of a man I speak)
field: 45003006
45
3
6
let it not be! since how shall God judge the world?
field: 45003007
45
3
7
for if the truth of God in my falsehood did more abound to His glory, why yet am I also as a sinner judged?
field: 45003008
45
3
8
and not, as we are evil spoken of, and as certain affirm us to say -- `We may do the evil things, that the good ones may come?' whose judgment is righteous.
field: 45003009
45
3
9
What, then? are we better? not at all! for we did before charge both Jews and Greeks with being all under sin,
field: 45003010
45
3
10
according as it hath been written -- `There is none righteous, not even one;
field: 45003011
45
3
11
There is none who is understanding, there is none who is seeking after God.
field: 45003012
45
3
12
All did go out of the way, together they became unprofitable, there is none doing good, there is not even one.
field: 45003013
45
3
13
A sepulchre opened `is' their throat; with their tongues they used deceit; poison of asps `is' under their lips.
field: 45003014
45
3
14
Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.
field: 45003015
45
3
15
Swift `are' their feet to shed blood.
field: 45003016
45
3
16
Ruin and misery `are' in their ways.
field: 45003017
45
3
17
And a way of peace they did not know.
field: 45003018
45
3
18
There is no fear of God before their eyes.'
field: 45003019
45
3
19
And we have known that as many things as the law saith, to those in the law it doth speak, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may come under judgment to God;
field: 45003020
45
3
20
wherefore by works of law shall no flesh be declared righteous before Him, for through law is a knowledge of sin.
field: 45003021
45
3
21
And now apart from law hath the righteousness of God been manifested, testified to by the law and the prophets,
field: 45003022
45
3
22
and the righteousness of God `is' through the faith of Jesus Christ to all, and upon all those believing, -- for there is no difference,
field: 45003023
45
3
23
for all did sin, and are come short of the glory of God --
field: 45003024
45
3
24
being declared righteous freely by His grace through the redemption that `is' in Christ Jesus,
field: 45003025
45
3
25
whom God did set forth a mercy seat, through the faith in his blood, for the shewing forth of His righteousness, because of the passing over of the bygone sins in the forbearance of God --
field: 45003026
45
3
26
for the shewing forth of His righteousness in the present time, for His being righteous, and declaring him righteous who `is' of the faith of Jesus.
field: 45003027
45
3
27
Where then `is' the boasting? it was excluded; by what law? of works? no, but by a law of faith:
field: 45003028
45
3
28
therefore do we reckon a man to be declared righteous by faith, apart from works of law.
field: 45003029
45
3
29
The God of Jews only `is He', and not also of nations?
field: 45003030
45
3
30
yes, also of nations; since one `is' God who shall declare righteous the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision through the faith.
field: 45003031
45
3
31
Law then do we make useless through the faith? let it not be! yea, we do establish law.
field: 45004001
45
4
1
What, then, shall we say Abraham our father, to have found, according to flesh?
field: 45004002
45
4
2
for if Abraham by works was declared righteous, he hath to boast -- but not before god;
field: 45004003
45
4
3
for what doth the writing say? `And Abraham did believe God, and it was reckoned to him -- to righteousness;'
field: 45004004
45
4
4
and to him who is working, the reward is not reckoned of grace, but of debt;
field: 45004005
45
4
5
and to him who is not working, and is believing upon Him who is declaring righteous the impious, his faith is reckoned -- to righteousness:
field: 45004006
45
4
6
even as David also doth speak of the happiness of the man to whom God doth reckon righteousness apart from works:
field: 45004007
45
4
7
`Happy they whose lawless acts were forgiven, and whose sins were covered;
field: 45004008
45
4
8
happy the man to whom the Lord may not reckon sin.'
field: 45004009
45
4
9
`Is' this happiness, then, upon the circumcision, or also upon the uncircumcision -- for we say that the faith was reckoned to Abraham -- to righteousness?
field: 45004010
45
4
10
how then was it reckoned? he being in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision;
field: 45004011
45
4
11
and a sign he did receive of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith in the uncircumcision, for his being father of all those believing through uncircumcision, for the righteousness also being reckoned to them,
field: 45004012
45
4
12
and father of circumcision to those not of circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of the faith, that `is' in the uncircumcision of our father Abraham.
field: 45004013
45
4
13
For not through law `is' the promise to Abraham, or to his seed, of his being heir of the world, but through the righteousness of faith;
field: 45004014
45
4
14
for if they who are of law `are' heirs, the faith hath been made void, and the promise hath been made useless;
field: 45004015
45
4
15
for the law doth work wrath; for where law is not, neither `is' transgression.
field: 45004016
45
4
16
Because of this `it is' of faith, that `it may be' according to grace, for the promise being sure to all the seed, not to that which `is' of the law only, but also to that which `is' of the faith of Abraham,
field: 45004017
45
4
17
who is father of us all (according as it hath been written -- `A father of many nations I have set thee,') before Him whom he did believe -- God, who is quickening the dead, and is calling the things that be not as being.
field: 45004018
45
4
18
Who, against hope in hope did believe, for his becoming father of many nations according to that spoken: `So shall thy seed be;'
field: 45004019
45
4
19
and not having been weak in the faith, he did not consider his own body, already become dead, (being about a hundred years old,) and the deadness of Sarah's womb,
field: 45004020
45
4
20
and at the promise of God did not stagger in unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, having given glory to God,
field: 45004021
45
4
21
and having been fully persuaded that what He hath promised He is able also to do:
field: 45004022
45
4
22
wherefore also it was reckoned to him to righteousness.
field: 45004023
45
4
23
And it was not written on his account alone, that it was reckoned to him,
field: 45004024
45
4
24
but also on ours, to whom it is about to be reckoned -- to us believing on Him who did raise up Jesus our Lord out of the dead,
field: 45004025
45
4
25
who was delivered up because of our offences, and was raised up because of our being declared righteous.
field: 45005001
45
5
1
Having been declared righteous, then, by faith, we have peace toward God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
field: 45005002
45
5
2
through whom also we have the access by the faith into this grace in which we have stood, and we boast on the hope of the glory of God.
field: 45005003
45
5
3
And not only `so', but we also boast in the tribulations, knowing that the tribulation doth work endurance;
field: 45005004
45
5
4
and the endurance, experience; and the experience, hope;
field: 45005005
45
5
5
and the hope doth not make ashamed, because the love of God hath been poured forth in our hearts through the Holy Spirit that hath been given to us.
field: 45005006
45
5
6
For in our being still ailing, Christ in due time did die for the impious;
field: 45005007
45
5
7
for scarcely for a righteous man will any one die, for for the good man perhaps some one also doth dare to die;
field: 45005008
45
5
8
and God doth commend His own love to us, that, in our being still sinners, Christ did die for us;
field: 45005009
45
5
9
much more, then, having been declared righteous now in his blood, we shall be saved through him from the wrath;
field: 45005010
45
5
10
for if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved in his life.
field: 45005011
45
5
11
And not only `so', but we are also boasting in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom now we did receive the reconciliation;
field: 45005012
45
5
12
because of this, even as through one man the sin did enter into the world, and through the sin the death; and thus to all men the death did pass through, for that all did sin;
field: 45005013
45
5
13
for till law sin was in the world: and sin is not reckoned when there is not law;
field: 45005014
45
5
14
but the death did reign from Adam till Moses, even upon those not having sinned in the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is a type of him who is coming.
field: 45005015
45
5
15
But, not as the offence so also `is' the free gift; for if by the offence of the one the many did die, much more did the grace of God, and the free gift in grace of the one man Jesus Christ, abound to the many;
field: 45005016
45
5
16
and not as through one who did sin `is' the free gift, for the judgment indeed `is' of one to condemnation, but the gift `is' of many offences to a declaration of `Righteous,'
field: 45005017
45
5
17
for if by the offence of the one the death did reign through the one, much more those, who the abundance of the grace and of the free gift of the righteousness are receiving, in life shall reign through the one -- Jesus Christ.
field: 45005018
45
5
18
So, then, as through one offence to all men `it is' to condemnation, so also through one declaration of `Righteous' `it is' to all men to justification of life;
field: 45005019
45
5
19
for as through the disobedience of the one man, the many were constituted sinners: so also through the obedience of the one, shall the many be constituted righteous.
field: 45005020
45
5
20
And law came in, that the offence might abound, and where the sin did abound, the grace did overabound,
field: 45005021
45
5
21
that even as the sin did reign in the death, so also the grace may reign, through righteousness, to life age-during, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
field: 45006001
45
6
1
What, then, shall we say? shall we continue in the sin that the grace may abound?
field: 45006002
45
6
2
let it not be! we who died to the sin -- how shall we still live in it?
field: 45006003
45
6
3
are ye ignorant that we, as many as were baptized to Christ Jesus, to his death were baptized?
field: 45006004
45
6
4
we were buried together, then, with him through the baptism to the death, that even as Christ was raised up out of the dead through the glory of the Father, so also we in newness of life might walk.
field: 45006005
45
6
5
For, if we have become planted together to the likeness of his death, `so' also we shall be of the rising again;
field: 45006006
45
6
6
this knowing, that our old man was crucified with `him', that the body of the sin may be made useless, for our no longer serving the sin;
field: 45006007
45
6
7
for he who hath died hath been set free from the sin.
field: 45006008
45
6
8
And if we died with Christ, we believe that we also shall live with him,
field: 45006009
45
6
9
knowing that Christ, having been raised up out of the dead, doth no more die, death over him hath no more lordship;
field: 45006010
45
6
10
for in that he died, to the sin he died once, and in that he liveth, he liveth to God;
field: 45006011
45
6
11
so also ye, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to the sin, and living to God in Jesus Christ our Lord.
field: 45006012
45
6
12
Let not then the sin reign in your mortal body, to obey it in its desires;
field: 45006013
45
6
13
neither present ye your members instruments of unrighteousness to the sin, but present yourselves to God as living out of the dead, and your members instruments of righteousness to God;
field: 45006014
45
6
14
for sin over you shall not have lordship, for ye are not under law, but under grace.
field: 45006015
45
6
15
What then? shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? let it not be!
field: 45006016
45
6
16
have ye not known that to whom ye present yourselves servants for obedience, servants ye are to him to whom ye obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
field: 45006017
45
6
17
and thanks to God, that ye were servants of the sin, and -- were obedient from the heart to the form of teaching to which ye were delivered up;
field: 45006018
45
6
18
and having been freed from the sin, ye became servants to the righteousness.
field: 45006019
45
6
19
In the manner of men I speak, because of the weakness of your flesh, for even as ye did present your members servants to the uncleanness and to the lawlessness -- to the lawlessness, so now present your members servants to the righteousness -- to sanctification,
field: 45006020
45
6
20
for when ye were servants of the sin, ye were free from the righteousness,
field: 45006021
45
6
21
what fruit, therefore, were ye having then, in the things of which ye are now ashamed? for the end of those `is' death.
field: 45006022
45
6
22
And now, having been freed from the sin, and having become servants to God, ye have your fruit -- to sanctification, and the end life age-during;
field: 45006023
45
6
23
for the wages of the sin `is' death, and the gift of God `is' life age-during in Christ Jesus our Lord.
field: 45007001
45
7
1
Are ye ignorant, brethren -- for to those knowing law I speak -- that the law hath lordship over the man as long as he liveth?
field: 45007002
45
7
2
for the married woman to the living husband hath been bound by law, and if the husband may die, she hath been free from the law of the husband;
field: 45007003
45
7
3
so, then, the husband being alive, an adulteress she shall be called if she may become another man's; and if the husband may die, she is free from the law, so as not to be an adulteress, having become another man's.
field: 45007004
45
7
4
So that, my brethren, ye also were made dead to the law through the body of the Christ, for your becoming another's, who out of the dead was raised up, that we might bear fruit to God;
field: 45007005
45
7
5
for when we were in the flesh, the passions of the sins, that `are' through the law, were working in our members, to bear fruit to the death;
field: 45007006
45
7
6
and now we have ceased from the law, that being dead in which we were held, so that we may serve in newness of spirit, and not in oldness of letter.
field: 45007007
45
7
7
What, then, shall we say? the law `is' sin? let it not be! but the sin I did not know except through law, for also the covetousness I had not known if the law had not said:
field: 45007008
45
7
8
`Thou shalt not covet;' and the sin having received an opportunity, through the command, did work in me all covetousness -- for apart from law sin is dead.
field: 45007009
45
7
9
And I was alive apart from law once, and the command having come, the sin revived, and I died;
field: 45007010
45
7
10
and the command that `is' for life, this was found by me for death;
field: 45007011
45
7
11
for the sin, having received an opportunity, through the command, did deceive me, and through it did slay `me';
field: 45007012
45
7
12
so that the law, indeed, `is' holy, and the command holy, and righteous, and good.
field: 45007013
45
7
13
That which is good then, to me hath it become death? let it not be! but the sin, that it might appear sin, through the good, working death to me, that the sin might become exceeding sinful through the command,
field: 45007014
45
7
14
for we have known that the law is spiritual, and I am fleshly, sold by the sin;
field: 45007015
45
7
15
for that which I work, I do not acknowledge; for not what I will, this I practise, but what I hate, this I do.
field: 45007016
45
7
16
And if what I do not will, this I do, I consent to the law that `it is' good,
field: 45007017
45
7
17
and now it is no longer I that work it, but the sin dwelling in me,
field: 45007018
45
7
18
for I have known that there doth not dwell in me, that is, in my flesh, good: for to will is present with me, and to work that which is right I do not find,
field: 45007019
45
7
19
for the good that I will, I do not; but the evil that I do not will, this I practise.
field: 45007020
45
7
20
And if what I do not will, this I do, it is no longer I that work it, but the sin that is dwelling in me.
field: 45007021
45
7
21
I find, then, the law, that when I desire to do what is right, with me the evil is present,
field: 45007022
45
7
22
for I delight in the law of God according to the inward man,
field: 45007023
45
7
23
and I behold another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of the sin that `is' in my members.
field: 45007024
45
7
24
A wretched man I `am'! who shall deliver me out of the body of this death?
field: 45007025
45
7
25
I thank God -- through Jesus Christ our Lord; so then, I myself indeed with the mind do serve the law of God, and with the flesh, the law of sin.
field: 45008001
45
8
1
There is, then, now no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit;
field: 45008002
45
8
2
for the law of the Spirit of the life in Christ Jesus did set me free from the law of the sin and of the death;
field: 45008003
45
8
3
for what the law was not able to do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God, His own Son having sent in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, did condemn the sin in the flesh,
field: 45008004
45
8
4
that the righteousness of the law may be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
field: 45008005
45
8
5
For those who are according to the flesh, the things of the flesh do mind; and those according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit;
field: 45008006
45
8
6
for the mind of the flesh `is' death, and the mind of the Spirit -- life and peace;
field: 45008007
45
8
7
because the mind of the flesh `is' enmity to God, for to the law of God it doth not subject itself,
field: 45008008
45
8
8
for neither is it able; and those who are in the flesh are not able to please God.
field: 45008009
45
8
9
And ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God doth dwell in you; and if any one hath not the Spirit of Christ -- this one is not His;
field: 45008010
45
8
10
and if Christ `is' in you, the body, indeed, `is' dead because of sin, and the Spirit `is' life because of righteousness,
field: 45008011
45
8
11
and if the Spirit of Him who did raise up Jesus out of the dead doth dwell in you, He who did raise up the Christ out of the dead shall quicken also your dying bodies, through His Spirit dwelling in you.
field: 45008012
45
8
12
So, then, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh;
field: 45008013
45
8
13
for if according to the flesh ye do live, ye are about to die; and if, by the Spirit, the deeds of the body ye put to death, ye shall live;
field: 45008014
45
8
14
for as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God;
field: 45008015
45
8
15
for ye did not receive a spirit of bondage again for fear, but ye did receive a spirit of adoption in which we cry, `Abba -- Father.'
field: 45008016
45
8
16
The Spirit himself doth testify with our spirit, that we are children of God;
field: 45008017
45
8
17
and if children, also heirs, heirs, indeed, of God, and heirs together of Christ -- if, indeed, we suffer together, that we may also be glorified together.
field: 45008018
45
8
18
For I reckon that the sufferings of the present time `are' not worthy `to be compared' with the glory about to be revealed in us;
field: 45008019
45
8
19
for the earnest looking out of the creation doth expect the revelation of the sons of God;
field: 45008020
45
8
20
for to vanity was the creation made subject -- not of its will, but because of Him who did subject `it' -- in hope,
field: 45008021
45
8
21
that also the creation itself shall be set free from the servitude of the corruption to the liberty of the glory of the children of God;
field: 45008022
45
8
22
for we have known that all the creation doth groan together, and doth travail in pain together till now.
field: 45008023
45
8
23
And not only `so', but also we ourselves, having the first-fruit of the Spirit, we also ourselves in ourselves do groan, adoption expecting -- the redemption of our body;
field: 45008024
45
8
24
for in hope we were saved, and hope beheld is not hope; for what any one doth behold, why also doth he hope for `it'?
field: 45008025
45
8
25
and if what we do not behold we hope for, through continuance we expect `it'.
field: 45008026
45
8
26
And, in like manner also, the Spirit doth help our weaknesses; for, what we may pray for, as it behoveth `us', we have not known, but the Spirit himself doth make intercession for us with groanings unutterable,
field: 45008027
45
8
27
and He who is searching the hearts hath known what `is' the mind of the Spirit, because according to God he doth intercede for saints.
field: 45008028
45
8
28
And we have known that to those loving God all things do work together for good, to those who are called according to purpose;
field: 45008029
45
8
29
because whom He did foreknow, He also did fore-appoint, conformed to the image of His Son, that he might be first-born among many brethren;
field: 45008030
45
8
30
and whom He did fore-appoint, these also He did call; and whom He did call, these also He declared righteous; and whom He declared righteous, these also He did glorify.
field: 45008031
45
8
31
What, then, shall we say unto these things? if God `is' for us, who `is' against us?
field: 45008032
45
8
32
He who indeed His own Son did not spare, but for us all did deliver him up, how shall He not also with him the all things grant to us?
field: 45008033
45
8
33
Who shall lay a charge against the choice ones of God? God `is' He that is declaring righteous,
field: 45008034
45
8
34
who `is' he that is condemning? Christ `is' He that died, yea, rather also, was raised up; who is also on the right hand of God -- who also doth intercede for us.
field: 45008035
45
8
35
Who shall separate us from the love of the Christ? tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
field: 45008036
45
8
36
(according as it hath been written -- `For Thy sake we are put to death all the day long, we were reckoned as sheep of slaughter,')
field: 45008037
45
8
37
but in all these we more than conquer, through him who loved us;
field: 45008038
45
8
38
for I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor messengers, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present,
field: 45008039
45
8
39
nor things about to be, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of god, that `is' in Christ Jesus our Lord.
field: 45009001
45
9
1
Truth I say in Christ, I lie not, my conscience bearing testimony with me in the Holy Spirit,
field: 45009002
45
9
2
that I have great grief and unceasing pain in my heart --
field: 45009003
45
9
3
for I was wishing, I myself, to be anathema from the Christ -- for my brethren, my kindred, according to the flesh,
field: 45009004
45
9
4
who are Israelites, whose `is' the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the lawgiving, and the service, and the promises,
field: 45009005
45
9
5
whose `are' the fathers, and of whom `is' the Christ, according to the flesh, who is over all, God blessed to the ages. Amen.
field: 45009006
45
9
6
And it is not possible that the word of God hath failed; for not all who `are' of Israel are these Israel;
field: 45009007
45
9
7
nor because they are seed of Abraham `are' all children, but -- `in Isaac shall a seed be called to thee;'
field: 45009008
45
9
8
that is, the children of the flesh -- these `are' not children of God; but the children of the promise are reckoned for seed;
field: 45009009
45
9
9
for the word of promise `is' this; `According to this time I will come, and there shall be to Sarah a son.'
field: 45009010
45
9
10
And not only `so', but also Rebecca, having conceived by one -- Isaac our father --
field: 45009011
45
9
11
(for they being not yet born, neither having done anything good or evil, that the purpose of God, according to choice, might remain; not of works, but of Him who is calling,) it was said to her --
field: 45009012
45
9
12
`The greater shall serve the less;'
field: 45009013
45
9
13
according as it hath been written, `Jacob I did love, and Esau I did hate.'
field: 45009014
45
9
14
What, then, shall we say? unrighteousness `is' with God? let it not be!
field: 45009015
45
9
15
for to Moses He saith, `I will do kindness to whom I do kindness, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion;'
field: 45009016
45
9
16
so, then -- not of him who is willing, nor of him who is running, but of God who is doing kindness:
field: 45009017
45
9
17
for the Writing saith to Pharaoh -- `For this very thing I did raise thee up, that I might shew in thee My power, and that My name might be declared in all the land;'
field: 45009018
45
9
18
so, then, to whom He willeth, He doth kindness, and to whom He willeth, He doth harden.
field: 45009019
45
9
19
Thou wilt say, then, to me, `Why yet doth He find fault? for His counsel who hath resisted?'
field: 45009020
45
9
20
nay, but, O man, who art thou that art answering again to God? shall the thing formed say to Him who did form `it', Why me didst thou make thus?
field: 45009021
45
9
21
hath not the potter authority over the clay, out of the same lump to make the one vessel to honour, and the one to dishonour?
field: 45009022
45
9
22
And if God, willing to shew the wrath and to make known His power, did endure, in much long suffering, vessels of wrath fitted for destruction,
field: 45009023
45
9
23
and that He might make known the riches of His glory on vessels of kindness, that He before prepared for glory, whom also He did call -- us --
field: 45009024
45
9
24
not only out of Jews, but also out of nations,
field: 45009025
45
9
25
as also in Hosea He saith, `I will call what `is' not My people -- My people; and her not beloved -- Beloved,
field: 45009026
45
9
26
and it shall be -- in the place where it was said to them, Ye `are' not My people; there they shall be called sons of the living God.'
field: 45009027
45
9
27
And Isaiah doth cry concerning Israel, `If the number of the sons of Israel may be as the sand of the sea, the remnant shall be saved;
field: 45009028
45
9
28
for a matter He is finishing, and is cutting short in righteousness, because a matter cut short will the Lord do upon the land.
field: 45009029
45
9
29
and according as Isaiah saith before, `Except the Lord of Sabaoth did leave to us a seed, as Sodom we had become, and as Gomorrah we had been made like.'
field: 45009030
45
9
30
What, then, shall we say? that nations who are not pursuing righteousness did attain to righteousness, and righteousness that `is' of faith,
field: 45009031
45
9
31
and Israel, pursuing a law of righteousness, at a law of righteousness did not arrive;
field: 45009032
45
9
32
wherefore? because -- not by faith, but as by works of law; for they did stumble at the stone of stumbling,
field: 45009033
45
9
33
according as it hath been written, `Lo, I place in Sion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence; and every one who is believing thereon shall not be ashamed.'
field: 45010001
45
10
1
Brethren, the pleasure indeed of my heart, and my supplication that `is' to God for Israel, is -- for salvation;
field: 45010002
45
10
2
for I bear them testimony that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge,
field: 45010003
45
10
3
for not knowing the righteousness of God, and their own righteousness seeking to establish, to the righteousness of God they did not submit.
field: 45010004
45
10
4
For Christ is an end of law for righteousness to every one who is believing,
field: 45010005
45
10
5
for Moses doth describe the righteousness that `is' of the law, that, `The man who did them shall live in them,'
field: 45010006
45
10
6
and the righteousness of faith doth thus speak: `Thou mayest not say in thine heart, Who shall go up to the heaven,' that is, Christ to bring down?
field: 45010007
45
10
7
or, `Who shall go down to the abyss,' that is, Christ out of the dead to bring up.
field: 45010008
45
10
8
But what doth it say? `Nigh thee is the saying -- in thy mouth, and in thy heart:' that is, the saying of the faith, that we preach;
field: 45010009
45
10
9
that if thou mayest confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and mayest believe in thy heart that God did raise him out of the dead, thou shalt be saved,
field: 45010010
45
10
10
for with the heart doth `one' believe to righteousness, and with the mouth is confession made to salvation;
field: 45010011
45
10
11
for the Writing saith, `Every one who is believing on him shall not be ashamed,'
field: 45010012
45
10
12
for there is no difference between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord of all `is' rich to all those calling upon Him,
field: 45010013
45
10
13
for every one -- whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, he shall be saved.'
field: 45010014
45
10
14
How then shall they call upon `him' in whom they did not believe? and how shall they believe `on him' of whom they did not hear? and how shall they hear apart from one preaching?
field: 45010015
45
10
15
and how shall they preach, if they may not be sent? according as it hath been written, `How beautiful the feet of those proclaiming good tidings of peace, of those proclaiming good tidings of the good things!'
field: 45010016
45
10
16
But they were not all obedient to the good tidings, for Isaiah saith, `Lord, who did give credence to our report?'
field: 45010017
45
10
17
so then the faith `is' by a report, and the report through a saying of God,
field: 45010018
45
10
18
but I say, Did they not hear? yes, indeed -- `to all the earth their voice went forth, and to the ends of the habitable world their sayings.'
field: 45010019
45
10
19
But I say, Did not Israel know? first Moses saith, `I will provoke you to jealousy by `that which is' not a nation; by an unintelligent nation I will anger you,'
field: 45010020
45
10
20
and Isaiah is very bold, and saith, `I was found by those not seeking Me; I became manifest to those not inquiring after Me;'
field: 45010021
45
10
21
and unto Israel He saith, `All the day I did stretch out My hands unto a people unbelieving and gainsaying.'
field: 45011001
45
11
1
I say, then, Did God cast away His people? let it not be! for I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin:
field: 45011002
45
11
2
God did not cast away His people whom He knew before; have ye not known -- in Elijah -- what the Writing saith? how he doth plead with God concerning Israel, saying,
field: 45011003
45
11
3
`Lord, Thy prophets they did kill, and Thy altars they dug down, and I was left alone, and they seek my life;'
field: 45011004
45
11
4
but what saith the divine answer to him? `I left to Myself seven thousand men, who did not bow a knee to Baal.'
field: 45011005
45
11
5
So then also in the present time a remnant according to the choice of grace there hath been;
field: 45011006
45
11
6
and if by grace, no more of works, otherwise the grace becometh no more grace; and if of works, it is no more grace, otherwise the work is no more work.
field: 45011007
45
11
7
What then? What Israel doth seek after, this it did not obtain, and the chosen did obtain, and the rest were hardened,
field: 45011008
45
11
8
according as it hath been written, `God gave to them a spirit of deep sleep, eyes not to see, and ears not to hear,' -- unto this very day,
field: 45011009
45
11
9
and David saith, `Let their table become for a snare, and for a trap, and for a stumbling-block, and for a recompense to them;
field: 45011010
45
11
10
let their eyes be darkened -- not to behold, and their back do Thou always bow down.'
field: 45011011
45
11
11
I say, then, Did they stumble that they might fall? let it not be! but by their fall the salvation `is' to the nations, to arouse them to jealousy;
field: 45011012
45
11
12
and if the fall of them `is' the riches of a world, and the diminution of them the riches of nations, how much more the fulness of them?
field: 45011013
45
11
13
For to you I speak -- to the nations -- inasmuch as I am indeed an apostle of nations, my ministration I do glorify;
field: 45011014
45
11
14
if by any means I shall arouse to jealousy mine own flesh, and shall save some of them,
field: 45011015
45
11
15
for if the casting away of them `is' a reconciliation of the world, what the reception -- if not life out of the dead?
field: 45011016
45
11
16
and if the first-fruit `is' holy, the lump also; and if the root `is' holy, the branches also.
field: 45011017
45
11
17
And if certain of the branches were broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wast graffed in among them, and a fellow-partaker of the root and of the fatness of the olive tree didst become --
field: 45011018
45
11
18
do not boast against the branches; and if thou dost boast, thou dost not bear the root, but the root thee!
field: 45011019
45
11
19
Thou wilt say, then, `The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in;' right!
field: 45011020
45
11
20
by unbelief they were broken off, and thou hast stood by faith; be not high-minded, but be fearing;
field: 45011021
45
11
21
for if God the natural branches did not spare -- lest perhaps He also shall not spare thee.
field: 45011022
45
11
22
Lo, then, goodness and severity of God -- upon those indeed who fell, severity; and upon thee, goodness, if thou mayest remain in the goodness, otherwise, thou also shalt be cut off.
field: 45011023
45
11
23
And those also, if they may not remain in unbelief, shall be graffed in, for God is able again to graff them in;
field: 45011024
45
11
24
for if thou, out of the olive tree, wild by nature, wast cut out, and, contrary to nature, wast graffed into a good olive tree, how much rather shall they, who `are' according to nature, be graffed into their own olive tree?
field: 45011025
45
11
25
For I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, of this secret -- that ye may not be wise in your own conceits -- that hardness in part to Israel hath happened till the fulness of the nations may come in;
field: 45011026
45
11
26
and so all Israel shall be saved, according as it hath been written, `There shall come forth out of Sion he who is delivering, and he shall turn away impiety from Jacob,
field: 45011027
45
11
27
and this to them `is' the covenant from Me, when I may take away their sins.'
field: 45011028
45
11
28
As regards, indeed, the good tidings, `they are' enemies on your account; and as regards the choice -- beloved on account of the fathers;
field: 45011029
45
11
29
for unrepented of `are' the gifts and the calling of God;
field: 45011030
45
11
30
for as ye also once did not believe in God, and now did find kindness by the unbelief of these:
field: 45011031
45
11
31
so also these now did not believe, that in your kindness they also may find kindness;
field: 45011032
45
11
32
for God did shut up together the whole to unbelief, that to the whole He might do kindness.
field: 45011033
45
11
33
O depth of riches, and wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable His judgments, and untraceable His ways!
field: 45011034
45
11
34
for who did know the mind of the Lord? or who did become His counsellor?
field: 45011035
45
11
35
or who did first give to Him, and it shall be given back to him again?
field: 45011036
45
11
36
because of Him, and through Him, and to Him `are' the all things; to Him `is' the glory -- to the ages. Amen.
field: 45012001
45
12
1
I call upon you, therefore, brethren, through the compassions of God, to present your bodies a sacrifice -- living, sanctified, acceptable to God -- your intelligent service;
field: 45012002
45
12
2
and be not conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, for your proving what `is' the will of God -- the good, and acceptable, and perfect.
field: 45012003
45
12
3
For I say, through the grace that was given to me, to every one who is among you, not to think above what it behoveth to think; but to think so as to think wisely, as to each God did deal a measure of faith,
field: 45012004
45
12
4
for as in one body we have many members, and all the members have not the same office,
field: 45012005
45
12
5
so we, the many, one body are in Christ, and members each one of one another.
field: 45012006
45
12
6
And having gifts, different according to the grace that was given to us; whether prophecy -- `According to the proportion of faith!'
field: 45012007
45
12
7
or ministration -- `In the ministration!' or he who is teaching -- `In the teaching!'
field: 45012008
45
12
8
or he who is exhorting -- `In the exhortation!' he who is sharing -- `In simplicity!' he who is leading -- `In diligence?' he who is doing kindness -- `In cheerfulness.'
field: 45012009
45
12
9
The love unfeigned: abhorring the evil; cleaving to the good;
field: 45012010
45
12
10
in the love of brethren, to one another kindly affectioned: in the honour going before one another;
field: 45012011
45
12
11
in the diligence not slothful; in the spirit fervent; the Lord serving;
field: 45012012
45
12
12
in the hope rejoicing; in the tribulation enduring; in the prayer persevering;
field: 45012013
45
12
13
to the necessities of the saints communicating; the hospitality pursuing.
field: 45012014
45
12
14
Bless those persecuting you; bless, and curse not;
field: 45012015
45
12
15
to rejoice with the rejoicing, and to weep with the weeping,
field: 45012016
45
12
16
of the same mind one toward another, not minding the high things, but with the lowly going along; become not wise in your own conceit;
field: 45012017
45
12
17
giving back to no one evil for evil; providing right things before all men.
field: 45012018
45
12
18
If possible -- so far as in you -- with all men being in peace;
field: 45012019
45
12
19
not avenging yourselves, beloved, but give place to the wrath, for it hath been written, `Vengeance `is' Mine,
field: 45012020
45
12
20
I will recompense again, saith the Lord;' if, then, thine enemy doth hunger, feed him; if he doth thirst, give him drink; for this doing, coals of fire thou shalt heap upon his head;
field: 45012021
45
12
21
Be not overcome by the evil, but overcome, in the good, the evil.
field: 45013001
45
13
1
Let every soul to the higher authorities be subject, for there is no authority except from God, and the authorities existing are appointed by God,
field: 45013002
45
13
2
so that he who is setting himself against the authority, against God's ordinance hath resisted; and those resisting, to themselves shall receive judgment.
field: 45013003
45
13
3
For those ruling are not a terror to the good works, but to the evil; and dost thou wish not to be afraid of the authority? that which is good be doing, and thou shalt have praise from it,
field: 45013004
45
13
4
for of God it is a ministrant to thee for good; and if that which is evil thou mayest do, be fearing, for not in vain doth it bear the sword; for of God it is a ministrant, an avenger for wrath to him who is doing that which is evil.
field: 45013005
45
13
5
Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only because of the wrath, but also because of the conscience,
field: 45013006
45
13
6
for because of this also pay ye tribute; for servants of God they are, on this very thing attending continually;
field: 45013007
45
13
7
render, therefore, to all `their' dues; to whom tribute, the tribute; to whom custom, the custom; to whom fear, the fear; to whom honour, the honour.
field: 45013008
45
13
8
To no one owe anything, except to love one another; for he who is loving the other -- law he hath fulfilled,
field: 45013009
45
13
9
for, `Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false testimony, Thou shalt not covet;' and if there is any other command, in this word it is summed up, in this: `Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself;'
field: 45013010
45
13
10
the love to the neighbor doth work no ill; the love, therefore, `is' the fulness of law.
field: 45013011
45
13
11
And this, knowing the time, that for us, the hour already `is' to be aroused out of sleep, for now nearer `is' our salvation than when we did believe;
field: 45013012
45
13
12
the night did advance, and the day came nigh; let us lay aside, therefore, the works of the darkness, and let us put on the armour of the light;
field: 45013013
45
13
13
as in day-time, let us walk becomingly; not in revellings and drunkennesses, not in chamberings and lasciviousnesses, not in strife and emulation;
field: 45013014
45
13
14
but put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and for the flesh take no forethought -- for desires.
field: 45014001
45
14
1
And him who is weak in the faith receive ye -- not to determinations of reasonings;
field: 45014002
45
14
2
one doth believe that he may eat all things -- and he who is weak doth eat herbs;
field: 45014003
45
14
3
let not him who is eating despise him who is not eating: and let not him who is not eating judge him who is eating, for God did receive him.
field: 45014004
45
14
4
Thou -- who art thou that art judging another's domestic? to his own master he doth stand or fall; and he shall be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.
field: 45014005
45
14
5
One doth judge one day above another, and another doth judge every day `alike'; let each in his own mind be fully assured.
field: 45014006
45
14
6
He who is regarding the day, to the Lord he doth regard `it', and he who is not regarding the day, to the Lord he doth not regard `it'. He who is eating, to the Lord he doth eat, for he doth give thanks to God; and he who is not eating, to the Lord he doth not eat, and doth give thanks to God.
field: 45014007
45
14
7
For none of us to himself doth live, and none to himself doth die;
field: 45014008
45
14
8
for both, if we may live, to the Lord we live; if also we may die, to the Lord we die; both then if we may live, also if we may die, we are the Lord's;
field: 45014009
45
14
9
for because of this Christ both died and rose again, and lived again, that both of dead and of living he may be Lord.
field: 45014010
45
14
10
And thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? or again, thou, why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand at the tribunal of the Christ;
field: 45014011
45
14
11
for it hath been written, `I live! saith the Lord -- to Me bow shall every knee, and every tongue shall confess to God;'
field: 45014012
45
14
12
so, then, each of us concerning himself shall give reckoning to God;
field: 45014013
45
14
13
no longer, therefore, may we judge one another, but this judge ye rather, not to put a stumbling-stone before the brother, or an offence.
field: 45014014
45
14
14
I have known, and am persuaded, in the Lord Jesus, that nothing `is' unclean of itself, except to him who is reckoning anything to be unclean -- to that one `it is' unclean;
field: 45014015
45
14
15
and if through victuals thy brother is grieved, no more dost thou walk according to love; do not with thy victuals destroy that one for whom Christ died.
field: 45014016
45
14
16
Let not, then, your good be evil spoken of,
field: 45014017
45
14
17
for the reign of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit;
field: 45014018
45
14
18
for he who in these things is serving the Christ, `is' acceptable to God and approved of men.
field: 45014019
45
14
19
So, then, the things of peace may we pursue, and the things of building up one another;
field: 45014020
45
14
20
for the sake of victuals cast not down the work of God; all things, indeed, `are' pure, but evil `is' to the man who is eating through stumbling.
field: 45014021
45
14
21
Right `it is' not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to `do anything' in which thy brother doth stumble, or is made to fall, or is weak.
field: 45014022
45
14
22
Thou hast faith! to thyself have `it' before God; happy is he who is not judging himself in what he doth approve,
field: 45014023
45
14
23
and he who is making a difference, if he may eat, hath been condemned, because `it is' not of faith; and all that `is' not of faith is sin.
field: 45015001
45
15
1
And we ought -- we who are strong -- to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves;
field: 45015002
45
15
2
for let each one of us please the neighbor for good, unto edification,
field: 45015003
45
15
3
for even the Christ did not please himself, but, according as it hath been written, `The reproaches of those reproaching Thee fell upon me;'
field: 45015004
45
15
4
for, as many things as were written before, for our instruction were written before, that through the endurance, and the exhortation of the Writings, we might have the hope.
field: 45015005
45
15
5
And may the God of the endurance, and of the exhortation, give to you to have the same mind toward one another, according to Christ Jesus;
field: 45015006
45
15
6
that with one accord -- with one mouth -- ye may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ;
field: 45015007
45
15
7
wherefore receive ye one another, according as also the Christ did receive us, to the glory of God.
field: 45015008
45
15
8
And I say Jesus Christ to have become a ministrant of circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises to the fathers,
field: 45015009
45
15
9
and the nations for kindness to glorify God, according as it hath been written, `Because of this I will confess to Thee among nations, and to Thy name I will sing praise,'
field: 45015010
45
15
10
and again it saith, `Rejoice ye nations, with His people;'
field: 45015011
45
15
11
and again, `Praise the Lord, all ye nations; and laud Him, all ye peoples;'
field: 45015012
45
15
12
and again, Isaiah saith, `There shall be the root of Jesse, and he who is rising to rule nations -- upon him shall nations hope;'
field: 45015013
45
15
13
and the God of the hope shall fill you with all joy and peace in the believing, for your abounding in the hope in power of the Holy Spirit.
field: 45015014
45
15
14
And I am persuaded, my brethren -- I myself also -- concerning you, that ye yourselves also are full of goodness, having been filled with all knowledge, able also one another to admonish;
field: 45015015
45
15
15
and the more boldly I did write to you, brethren, in part, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me by God,
field: 45015016
45
15
16
for my being a servant of Jesus Christ to the nations, acting as priest in the good news of God, that the offering up of the nations may become acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
field: 45015017
45
15
17
I have, then, a boasting in Christ Jesus, in the things pertaining to God,
field: 45015018
45
15
18
for I will not dare to speak anything of the things that Christ did not work through me, to obedience of nations, by word and deed,
field: 45015019
45
15
19
in power of signs and wonders, in power of the Spirit of God; so that I, from Jerusalem, and in a circle as far as Illyricum, have fully preached the good news of the Christ;
field: 45015020
45
15
20
and so counting it honour to proclaim good news, not where Christ was named -- that upon another's foundation I might not build --
field: 45015021
45
15
21
but according as it hath been written, `To whom it was not told concerning him, they shall see; and they who have not heard, shall understand.'
field: 45015022
45
15
22
Wherefore, also, I was hindered many times from coming unto you,
field: 45015023
45
15
23
and now, no longer having place in these parts, and having a longing to come unto you for many years,
field: 45015024
45
15
24
when I may go on to Spain I will come unto you, for I hope in going through, to see you, and by you to be set forward thither, if of you first, in part, I shall be filled.
field: 45015025
45
15
25
And, now, I go on to Jerusalem, ministering to the saints;
field: 45015026
45
15
26
for it pleased Macedonia and Achaia well to make a certain contribution for the poor of the saints who `are' in Jerusalem;
field: 45015027
45
15
27
for it pleased well, and their debtors they are, for if in their spiritual things the nations did participate, they ought also, in the fleshly things, to minister to them.
field: 45015028
45
15
28
This, then, having finished, and having sealed to them this fruit, I will return through you, to Spain;
field: 45015029
45
15
29
and I have known that coming unto you -- in the fulness of the blessing of the good news of Christ I shall come.
field: 45015030
45
15
30
And I call upon you, brethren, through our Lord Jesus Christ, and through the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in the prayers for me unto God,
field: 45015031
45
15
31
that I may be delivered from those not believing in Judea, and that my ministration, that `is' for Jerusalem, may become acceptable to the saints;
field: 45015032
45
15
32
that in joy I may come unto you, through the will of God, and may be refreshed with you,
field: 45015033
45
15
33
and the God of the peace `be' with you all. Amen.
field: 45016001
45
16
1
And I commend you to Phebe our sister -- being a ministrant of the assembly that `is' in Cenchrea --
field: 45016002
45
16
2
that ye may receive her in the Lord, as doth become saints, and may assist her in whatever matter she may have need of you -- for she also became a leader of many, and of myself.
field: 45016003
45
16
3
Salute Priscilla and Aquilas, my fellow-workmen in Christ Jesus --
field: 45016004
45
16
4
who for my life their own neck did lay down, to whom not only I give thanks, but also all the assemblies of the nations --
field: 45016005
45
16
5
and the assembly at their house; salute Epaenetus, my beloved, who is first-fruit of Achaia to Christ.
field: 45016006
45
16
6
Salute Mary, who did labour much for us;
field: 45016007
45
16
7
salute Andronicus and Junias, my kindred, and my fellow-captives, who are of note among the apostles, who also have been in Christ before me.
field: 45016008
45
16
8
Salute Amplias, my beloved in the Lord;
field: 45016009
45
16
9
salute Arbanus, our fellow-workman in Christ, and Stachys, my beloved;
field: 45016010
45
16
10
salute Apelles, the approved in Christ; salute those of the `household' of Aristobulus;
field: 45016011
45
16
11
salute Herodion, my kinsman; salute those of the `household' of Narcissus, who are in the Lord;
field: 45016012
45
16
12
salute Tryphaena, and Tryphosa, who are labouring in the Lord; salute Persis, the beloved, who did labour much in the Lord.
field: 45016013
45
16
13
Salute Rufus, the choice one in the Lord, and his mother and mine,
field: 45016014
45
16
14
salute Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brethren with them;
field: 45016015
45
16
15
salute Philologus, and Julias, Nereus, and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints with them;
field: 45016016
45
16
16
salute one another in a holy kiss; the assemblies of Christ do salute you.
field: 45016017
45
16
17
And I call upon you, brethren, to mark those who the divisions and the stumbling-blocks, contrary to the teaching that ye did learn, are causing, and turn ye away from them;
field: 45016018
45
16
18
for such our Lord Jesus Christ do not serve, but their own belly; and through the good word and fair speech they deceive the hearts of the harmless,
field: 45016019
45
16
19
for your obedience did reach to all; I rejoice, therefore, as regards you, and I wish you to be wise, indeed, as to the good, and harmless as to the evil;
field: 45016020
45
16
20
and the God of the peace shall bruise the Adversary under your feet quickly; the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ `be' with you. Amen!
field: 45016021
45
16
21
Salute you do Timotheus, my fellow-workman, and Lucius, and Jason, and Sosipater, my kindred;
field: 45016022
45
16
22
I Tertius salute you (who wrote the letter) in the Lord;
field: 45016023
45
16
23
salute you doth Gaius, my host, and of the whole assembly; salute you doth Erastus, the steward of the city, and Quartus the brother,
field: 45016024
45
16
24
the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ `be' with you all. Amen.
field: 45016025
45
16
25
And to Him who is able to establish you, according to my good news, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the secret, in the times of the ages having been kept silent,
field: 45016026
45
16
26
and now having been made manifest, also, through prophetic writings, according to a command of the age-during God, having been made known to all the nations for obedience of faith --
field: 45016027
45
16
27
to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, to him `be' glory to the ages. Amen.
field: 46001001
46
1
1
Paul, a called apostle of Jesus Christ, through the will of God, and Sosthenes the brother,
field: 46001002
46
1
2
to the assembly of God that is in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints, with all those calling upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place -- both theirs and ours:
field: 46001003
46
1
3
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
field: 46001004
46
1
4
I give thanks to my God always concerning you for the grace of God that was given to you in Christ Jesus,
field: 46001005
46
1
5
that in every thing ye were enriched in him, in all discourse and all knowledge,
field: 46001006
46
1
6
according as the testimony of the Christ was confirmed in you,
field: 46001007
46
1
7
so that ye are not behind in any gift, waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,
field: 46001008
46
1
8
who also shall confirm you unto the end -- unblamable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ;
field: 46001009
46
1
9
faithful `is' God, through whom ye were called to the fellowship of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
field: 46001010
46
1
10
And I call upon you, brethren, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that the same thing ye may all say, and there may not be divisions among you, and ye may be perfected in the same mind, and in the same judgment,
field: 46001011
46
1
11
for it was signified to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of Chloe, that contentions are among you;
field: 46001012
46
1
12
and I say this, that each one of you saith, `I, indeed, am of Paul' -- `and I of Apollos,' -- `and I of Cephas,' -- `and I of Christ.'
field: 46001013
46
1
13
Hath the Christ been divided? was Paul crucified for you? or to the name of Paul were ye baptized;
field: 46001014
46
1
14
I give thanks to God that no one of you did I baptize, except Crispus and Gaius --
field: 46001015
46
1
15
that no one may say that to my own name I did baptize;
field: 46001016
46
1
16
and I did baptize also Stephanas' household -- further, I have not known if I did baptize any other.
field: 46001017
46
1
17
For Christ did not send me to baptize, but -- to proclaim good news; not in wisdom of discourse, that the cross of the Christ may not be made of none effect;
field: 46001018
46
1
18
for the word of the cross to those indeed perishing is foolishness, and to us -- those being saved -- it is the power of God,
field: 46001019
46
1
19
for it hath been written, `I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the intelligence of the intelligent I will bring to nought;'
field: 46001020
46
1
20
where `is' the wise? where the scribe? where a disputer of this age? did not God make foolish the wisdom of this world?
field: 46001021
46
1
21
for, seeing in the wisdom of God the world through the wisdom knew not God, it did please God through the foolishness of the preaching to save those believing.
field: 46001022
46
1
22
Since also Jews ask a sign, and Greeks seek wisdom,
field: 46001023
46
1
23
also we -- we preach Christ crucified, to Jews, indeed, a stumbling-block, and to Greeks foolishness,
field: 46001024
46
1
24
and to those called -- both Jews and Greeks -- Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God,
field: 46001025
46
1
25
because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men;
field: 46001026
46
1
26
for see your calling, brethren, that not many `are' wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble;
field: 46001027
46
1
27
but the foolish things of the world did God choose, that the wise He may put to shame; and the weak things of the world did God choose that He may put to shame the strong;
field: 46001028
46
1
28
and the base things of the world, and the things despised did God choose, and the things that are not, that the things that are He may make useless --
field: 46001029
46
1
29
that no flesh may glory before Him;
field: 46001030
46
1
30
and of Him ye -- ye are in Christ Jesus, who became to us from God wisdom, righteousness also, and sanctification, and redemption,
field: 46001031
46
1
31
that, according as it hath been written, `He who is glorying -- in the Lord let him glory.'
field: 46002001
46
2
1
And I, having come unto you, brethren, came -- not in superiority of discourse or wisdom -- declaring to you the testimony of God,
field: 46002002
46
2
2
for I decided not to know any thing among you, except Jesus Christ, and him crucified;
field: 46002003
46
2
3
and I, in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling, was with you;
field: 46002004
46
2
4
and my word and my preaching was not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power --
field: 46002005
46
2
5
that your faith may not be in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
field: 46002006
46
2
6
And wisdom we speak among the perfect, and wisdom not of this age, nor of the rulers of this age -- of those becoming useless,
field: 46002007
46
2
7
but we speak the hidden wisdom of God in a secret, that God foreordained before the ages to our glory,
field: 46002008
46
2
8
which no one of the rulers of this age did know, for if they had known, the Lord of the glory they would not have crucified;
field: 46002009
46
2
9
but, according as it hath been written, `What eye did not see, and ear did not hear, and upon the heart of man came not up, what God did prepare for those loving Him --'
field: 46002010
46
2
10
but to us did God reveal `them' through His Spirit, for the Spirit all things doth search, even the depths of God,
field: 46002011
46
2
11
for who of men hath known the things of the man, except the spirit of the man that `is' in him? so also the things of God no one hath known, except the Spirit of God.
field: 46002012
46
2
12
And we the spirit of the world did not receive, but the Spirit that `is' of God, that we may know the things conferred by God on us,
field: 46002013
46
2
13
which things also we speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Holy Spirit, with spiritual things spiritual things comparing,
field: 46002014
46
2
14
and the natural man doth not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for to him they are foolishness, and he is not able to know `them', because spiritually they are discerned;
field: 46002015
46
2
15
and he who is spiritual, doth discern indeed all things, and he himself is by no one discerned;
field: 46002016
46
2
16
for who did know the mind of the Lord that he shall instruct Him? and we -- we have the mind of Christ.
field: 46003001

1
And I, brethren, was not able to speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly -- as to babes in Christ;
field: 46003002
46
3
2
with milk I fed you, and not with meat, for ye were not yet able, but not even yet are ye now able,
field: 46003003
46
3
3
for yet ye are fleshly, for where `there is' among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not fleshly, and in the manner of men do walk?
field: 46003004
46
3
4
for when one may say, `I, indeed, am of Paul;' and another, `I -- of Apollos;' are ye not fleshly?
field: 46003005
46
3
5
Who, then, is Paul, and who Apollos, but ministrants through whom ye did believe, and to each as the Lord gave?
field: 46003006
46
3
6
I planted, Apollos watered, but God was giving growth;
field: 46003007
46
3
7
so that neither is he who is planting anything, nor he who is watering, but He who is giving growth -- God;
field: 46003008
46
3
8
and he who is planting and he who is watering are one, and each his own reward shall receive, according to his own labour,
field: 46003009
46
3
9
for of God we are fellow-workmen; God's tillage, God's building ye are.
field: 46003010
46
3
10
According to the grace of God that was given to me, as a wise master-builder, a foundation I have laid, and another doth build on `it',
field: 46003011
46
3
11
for other foundation no one is able to lay except that which is laid, which is Jesus the Christ;
field: 46003012
46
3
12
and if any one doth build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw --
field: 46003013
46
3
13
of each the work shall become manifest, for the day shall declare `it', because in fire it is revealed, and the work of each, what kind it is, the fire shall prove;
field: 46003014
46
3
14
if of any one the work doth remain that he built on `it', a wage he shall receive;
field: 46003015
46
3
15
if of any the work is burned up, he shall suffer loss; and himself shall be saved, but so as through fire.
field: 46003016
46
3
16
have ye not known that ye are a sanctuary of God, and the Spirit of God doth dwell in you?
field: 46003017
46
3
17
if any one the sanctuary of God doth waste, him shall God waste; for the sanctuary of God is holy, the which ye are.
field: 46003018
46
3
18
Let no one deceive himself; if any one doth seem to be wise among you in this age -- let him become a fool, that he may become wise,
field: 46003019
46
3
19
for the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God, for it hath been written, `Who is taking the wise in their craftiness;'
field: 46003020
46
3
20
and again, `The Lord doth know the reasonings of the wise, that they are vain.'
field: 46003021
46
3
21
So then, let no one glory in men, for all things are yours,
field: 46003022
46
3
22
whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things about to be -- all are yours,
field: 46003023
46
3
23
and ye `are' Christ's, and Christ `is' God's.
field: 46004001
46
4
1
Let a man so reckon us as officers of Christ, and stewards of the secrets of God,
field: 46004002
46
4
2
and as to the rest, it is required in the stewards that one may be found faithful,
field: 46004003
46
4
3
and to me it is for a very little thing that by you I may be judged, or by man's day, but not even myself do I judge,
field: 46004004
46
4
4
for of nothing to myself have I been conscious, but not in this have I been declared right -- and he who is discerning me is the Lord:
field: 46004005
46
4
5
so, then, nothing before the time judge ye, till the Lord may come, who will both bring to light the hidden things of the darkness, and will manifest the counsels of the hearts, and then the praise shall come to each from God.
field: 46004006
46
4
6
And these things, brethren, I did transfer to myself and to Apollos because of you, that in us ye may learn not to think above that which hath been written, that ye may not be puffed up one for one against the other,
field: 46004007
46
4
7
for who doth make thee to differ? and what hast thou, that thou didst not receive? and if thou didst also receive, why dost thou glory as not having received?
field: 46004008
46
4
8
Already ye are having been filled, already ye were rich, apart from us ye did reign, and I would also ye did reign, that we also with you may reign together,
field: 46004009
46
4
9
for I think that God did set forth us the apostles last -- as appointed to death, because a spectacle we became to the world, and messengers, and men;
field: 46004010
46
4
10
we `are' fools because of Christ, and ye wise in Christ; we `are' ailing, and ye strong; ye glorious, and we dishonoured;
field: 46004011
46
4
11
unto the present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and wander about,
field: 46004012
46
4
12
and labour, working with `our' own hands; being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer;
field: 46004013
46
4
13
being spoken evil of, we entreat; as filth of the world we did become -- of all things an offscouring -- till now.
field: 46004014
46
4
14
Not `as' putting you to shame do I write these things, but as my beloved children I do admonish,
field: 46004015
46
4
15
for if a myriad of child-conductors ye may have in Christ, yet not many fathers; for in Christ Jesus, through the good news, I -- I did beget you;
field: 46004016
46
4
16
I call upon you, therefore, become ye followers of me;
field: 46004017
46
4
17
because of this I sent to you Timotheus, who is my child, beloved and faithful in the Lord, who shall remind you of my ways in Christ, according as everywhere in every assembly I teach.
field: 46004018
46
4
18
And as if I were not coming unto you certain were puffed up;
field: 46004019
46
4
19
but I will come quickly unto you, if the Lord may will, and I will know not the word of those puffed up, but the power;
field: 46004020
46
4
20
for not in word is the reign of God, but in power?
field: 46004021
46
4
21
what do ye wish? with a rod shall I come unto you, or in love, with a spirit also of meekness?
field: 46005001
46
5
1
Whoredom is actually heard of among you, and such whoredom as is not even named among the nations -- as that one hath the wife of the father! --
field: 46005002
46
5
2
and ye are having been puffed up, and did not rather mourn, that he may be removed out of the midst of you who did this work,
field: 46005003
46
5
3
for I indeed, as being absent as to the body, and present as to the spirit, have already judged, as being present, him who so wrought this thing:
field: 46005004
46
5
4
in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ -- ye being gathered together, also my spirit -- with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
field: 46005005
46
5
5
to deliver up such a one to the Adversary for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
field: 46005006
46
5
6
Not good `is' your glorying; have ye not known that a little leaven the whole lump doth leaven?
field: 46005007
46
5
7
cleanse out, therefore, the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, according as ye are unleavened, for also our passover for us was sacrificed -- Christ,
field: 46005008
46
5
8
so that we may keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of evil and wickedness, but with unleavened food of sincerity and truth.
field: 46005009
46
5
9
I did write to you in the epistle, not to keep company with whoremongers --
field: 46005010
46
5
10
and not certainly with the whoremongers of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, seeing ye ought then to go forth out of the world --
field: 46005011
46
5
11
and now, I did write to you not to keep company with `him', if any one, being named a brother, may be a whoremonger, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner -- with such a one not even to eat together;
field: 46005012
46
5
12
for what have I also those without to judge? those within do ye not judge?
field: 46005013
46
5
13
and those without God doth judge; and put ye away the evil from among yourselves.
field: 46006001
46
6
1
Dare any one of you, having a matter with the other, go to be judged before the unrighteous, and not before the saints?
field: 46006002
46
6
2
have ye not known that the saints shall judge the world? and if by you the world is judged, are ye unworthy of the smaller judgments?
field: 46006003
46
6
3
have ye not known that we shall judge messengers? why not then the things of life?
field: 46006004
46
6
4
of the things of life, indeed, then, if ye may have judgment, those despised in the assembly -- these cause ye to sit;
field: 46006005
46
6
5
unto your shame I speak: so there is not among you one wise man, not even one, who shall be able to discern in the midst of his brethren!
field: 46006006
46
6
6
but brother with brother doth go to be judged, and this before unbelievers!
field: 46006007
46
6
7
Already, indeed, then, there is altogether a fault among you, that ye have judgments with one another; wherefore do ye not rather suffer injustice? wherefore be ye not rather defrauded?
field: 46006008
46
6
8
but ye -- ye do injustice, and ye defraud, and these -- brethren!
field: 46006009
46
6
9
have ye not known that the unrighteous the reign of God shall not inherit? be not led astray; neither whoremongers, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites,
field: 46006010
46
6
10
nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, the reign of God shall inherit.
field: 46006011
46
6
11
And certain of you were these! but ye were washed, but ye were sanctified, but ye were declared righteous, in the name of the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit of our God.
field: 46006012
46
6
12
All things are lawful to me, but all things are not profitable; all things are lawful to me, but I -- I will not be under authority by any;
field: 46006013
46
6
13
the meats `are' for the belly, and the belly for the meats. And God both this and these shall make useless; and the body `is' not for whoredom, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body;
field: 46006014
46
6
14
and God both the Lord did raise, and us will raise up through His power.
field: 46006015
46
6
15
Have ye not known that your bodies are members of Christ? having taken, then, the members of the Christ, shall I make `them' members of an harlot? let it be not!
field: 46006016
46
6
16
have ye not known that he who is joined to the harlot is one body? `for they shall be -- saith He -- the two for one flesh.'
field: 46006017
46
6
17
And he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit;
field: 46006018
46
6
18
flee the whoredom; every sin -- whatever a man may commit -- is without the body, and he who is committing whoredom, against his own body doth sin.
field: 46006019
46
6
19
Have ye not known that your body is a sanctuary of the Holy Spirit in you, which ye have from God? and ye are not your own,
field: 46006020
46
6
20
for ye were bought with a price; glorify, then, God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.
field: 46007001
46
7
1
And concerning the things of which ye wrote to me: good `it is' for a man not to touch a woman,
field: 46007002
46
7
2
and because of the whoredom let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her proper husband;
field: 46007003
46
7
3
to the wife let the husband the due benevolence render, and in like manner also the wife to the husband;
field: 46007004
46
7
4
the wife over her own body hath not authority, but the husband; and, in like manner also, the husband over his own body hath not authority, but the wife.
field: 46007005
46
7
5
Defraud not one another, except by consent for a time, that ye may be free for fasting and prayer, and again may come together, that the Adversary may not tempt you because of your incontinence;
field: 46007006
46
7
6
and this I say by way of concurrence -- not of command,
field: 46007007
46
7
7
for I wish all men to be even as I myself `am'; but each his own gift hath of God, one indeed thus, and one thus.
field: 46007008
46
7
8
And I say to the unmarried and to the widows: it is good for them if they may remain even as I `am';
field: 46007009
46
7
9
and if they have not continence -- let them marry, for it is better to marry than to burn;
field: 46007010
46
7
10
and to the married I announce -- not I, but the Lord -- let not a wife separate from a husband:
field: 46007011
46
7
11
but and if she may separate, let her remain unmarried, or to the husband let her be reconciled, and let not a husband send away a wife.
field: 46007012
46
7
12
And to the rest I speak -- not the Lord -- if any brother hath a wife unbelieving, and she is pleased to dwell with him, let him not send her away;
field: 46007013
46
7
13
and a woman who hath a husband unbelieving, and he is pleased to dwell with her, let her not send him away;
field: 46007014
46
7
14
for the unbelieving husband hath been sanctified in the wife, and the unbelieving wife hath been sanctified in the husband; otherwise your children are unclean, but now they are holy.
field: 46007015
46
7
15
And, if the unbelieving doth separate himself -- let him separate himself: the brother or the sister is not under servitude in such `cases', and in peace hath God called us;
field: 46007016
46
7
16
for what, hast thou known, O wife, whether the husband thou shalt save? or what, hast thou known, O husband, whether the wife thou shalt save?
field: 46007017
46
7
17
if not, as God did distribute to each, as the Lord hath called each -- so let him walk; and thus in all the assemblies do I direct:
field: 46007018
46
7
18
being circumcised -- was any one called? let him not become uncircumcised; in uncircumcision was any one called? let him not be circumcised;
field: 46007019
46
7
19
the circumcision is nothing, and the uncircumcision is nothing -- but a keeping of the commands of God.
field: 46007020
46
7
20
Each in the calling in which he was called -- in this let him remain;
field: 46007021
46
7
21
a servant -- wast thou called? be not anxious; but if also thou art able to become free -- use `it' rather;
field: 46007022
46
7
22
for he who `is' in the Lord -- having been called a servant -- is the Lord's freedman: in like manner also he the freeman, having been called, is servant of Christ:
field: 46007023
46
7
23
with a price ye were bought, become not servants of men;
field: 46007024
46
7
24
each, in that in which he was called, brethren, in this let him remain with God.
field: 46007025
46
7
25
And concerning the virgins, a command of the Lord I have not; and I give judgment as having obtained kindness from the Lord to be faithful:
field: 46007026
46
7
26
I suppose, therefore, this to be good because of the present necessity, that `it is' good for a man that the matter be thus: --
field: 46007027
46
7
27
Hast thou been bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed; hast thou been loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.
field: 46007028
46
7
28
But and if thou mayest marry, thou didst not sin; and if the virgin may marry, she did not sin; and such shall have tribulation in the flesh: and I spare you.
field: 46007029
46
7
29
And this I say, brethren, the time henceforth is having been shortened -- that both those having wives may be as not having;
field: 46007030
46
7
30
and those weeping, as not weeping; and those rejoicing, as not rejoicing; and those buying, as not possessing;
field: 46007031
46
7
31
and those using this world, as not using `it' up; for passing away is the fashion of this world.
field: 46007032
46
7
32
And I wish you to be without anxiety; the unmarried is anxious for the things of the Lord, how he shall please the Lord;
field: 46007033
46
7
33
and the married is anxious for the things of the world, how he shall please the wife.
field: 46007034
46
7
34
The wife and the virgin have been distinguished: the unmarried is anxious for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit, and the married is anxious for the things of the world, how she shall please the husband.
field: 46007035
46
7
35
And this for your own profit I say: not that I may cast a noose upon you, but for the seemliness and devotedness to the Lord, undistractedly,
field: 46007036
46
7
36
and if any one doth think `it' to be unseemly to his virgin, if she may be beyond the bloom of age, and it ought so to be, what he willeth let him do; he doth not sin -- let him marry.
field: 46007037
46
7
37
And he who hath stood stedfast in the heart -- not having necessity -- and hath authority over his own will, and this he hath determined in his heart -- to keep his own virgin -- doth well;
field: 46007038
46
7
38
so that both he who is giving in marriage doth well, and he who is not giving in marriage doth better.
field: 46007039
46
7
39
A wife hath been bound by law as long time as her husband may live, and if her husband may sleep, she is free to be married to whom she will -- only in the Lord;
field: 46007040
46
7
40
and she is happier if she may so remain -- according to my judgment; and I think I also have the Spirit of God.
field: 46008001
46
8
1
And concerning the things sacrificed to idols, we have known that we all have knowledge: knowledge puffeth up, but love buildeth up;
field: 46008002
46
8
2
and if any one doth think to know anything, he hath not yet known anything according as it behoveth `him' to know;
field: 46008003
46
8
3
and if any one doth love God, this one hath been known by Him.
field: 46008004
46
8
4
Concerning the eating then of the things sacrificed to idols, we have known that an idol `is' nothing in the world, and that there is no other God except one;
field: 46008005
46
8
5
for even if there are those called gods, whether in heaven, whether upon earth -- as there are gods many and lords many --
field: 46008006
46
8
6
yet to us `is' one God, the Father, of whom `are' the all things, and we to Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom `are' the all things, and we through Him;
field: 46008007
46
8
7
but not in all men `is' the knowledge, and certain with conscience of the idol, till now, as a thing sacrificed to an idol do eat `it', and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
field: 46008008
46
8
8
But victuals do not commend us to God, for neither if we may eat are we in advance; nor if we may not eat, are we behind;
field: 46008009
46
8
9
but see, lest this privilege of yours may become a stumbling-block to the infirm,
field: 46008010
46
8
10
for if any one may see thee that hast knowledge in an idol's temple reclining at meat -- shall not his conscience -- he being infirm -- be emboldened to eat the things sacrificed to idols,
field: 46008011
46
8
11
and the brother who is infirm shall perish by thy knowledge, because of whom Christ died?
field: 46008012
46
8
12
and thus sinning in regard to the brethren, and smiting their weak conscience -- in regard to Christ ye sin;
field: 46008013
46
8
13
wherefore, if victuals cause my brother to stumble, I may eat no flesh -- to the age -- that my brother I may not cause to stumble.
field: 46009001
46
9
1
Am not I an apostle? am not I free? Jesus Christ our Lord have I not seen? my work are not ye in the Lord?
field: 46009002
46
9
2
if to others I am not an apostle -- yet doubtless to you I am; for the seal of my apostleship are ye in the Lord.
field: 46009003
46
9
3
My defence to those who examine me in this;
field: 46009004
46
9
4
have we not authority to eat and to drink?
field: 46009005
46
9
5
have we not authority a sister -- a wife -- to lead about, as also the other apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?
field: 46009006
46
9
6
or only I and Barnabas, have we not authority -- not to work?
field: 46009007
46
9
7
who doth serve as a soldier at his own charges at any time? who doth plant a vineyard, and of its fruit doth not eat? or who doth feed a flock, and of the milk of the flock doth not eat?
field: 46009008
46
9
8
According to man do I speak these things? or doth not also the law say these things?
field: 46009009
46
9
9
for in the law of Moses it hath been written, `thou shalt not muzzle an ox treading out corn;' for the oxen doth God care?
field: 46009010
46
9
10
or because of us by all means doth He say `it'? yes, because of us it was written, because in hope ought the plower to plow, and he who is treading `ought' of his hope to partake in hope.
field: 46009011
46
9
11
If we to you the spiritual things did sow -- great `is it' if we your fleshly things do reap?
field: 46009012
46

if others do partake of the authority over you -- not we more? but we did not use this authority, but all things we bear, that we may give no hindrance to the good news of the Christ.
field: 46009013

Have ye not known that those working about the things of the temple -- of the temple do eat, and those waiting at the altar -- with the altar are partakers?
field: 46009014
46
9
14
so also did the Lord direct to those proclaiming the good news: of the good news to live.
field: 46009015
46
9
15
And I have used none of these things; neither did I write these things that it may be so done in my case, for `it is' good for me rather to die, than that any one may make my glorying void;
field: 46009016
46
9
16
for if I may proclaim good news, it is no glorying for me, for necessity is laid upon me, and wo is to me if I may not proclaim good news;
field: 46009017
46
9
17
for if willing I do this, I have a reward; and if unwillingly -- with a stewardship I have been entrusted!
field: 46009018
46
9
18
What, then, is my reward? -- that proclaiming good news, without charge I shall make the good news of the Christ, not to abuse my authority in the good news;
field: 46009019
46
9
19
for being free from all men, to all men I made myself servant, that the more I might gain;
field: 46009020
46
9
20
and I became to the Jews as a Jew, that Jews I might gain; to those under law as under law, that those under law I might gain;
field: 46009021
46
9
21
to those without law, as without law -- (not being without law to God, but within law to Christ) -- that I might gain those without law;
field: 46009022
46
9
22
I became to the infirm as infirm, that the infirm I might gain; to all men I have become all things, that by all means I may save some.
field: 46009023
46
9
23
And this I do because of the good news, that a fellow-partaker of it I may become;
field: 46009024
46
9
24
have ye not known that those running in a race -- all indeed run, but one doth receive the prize? so run ye, that ye may obtain;
field: 46009025
46
9
25
and every one who is striving, is in all things temperate; these, indeed, then, that a corruptible crown they may receive, but we an incorruptible;
field: 46009026
46
9
26
I, therefore, thus run, not as uncertainly, thus I fight, as not beating air;
field: 46009027
46
9
27
but I chastise my body, and bring `it' into servitude, lest by any means, having preached to others -- I myself may become disapproved.
field: 46010001
46

And I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,
field: 46010002
46
10
2
and all to Moses were baptized in the cloud, and in the sea;
field: 46010003
46
10
3
and all the same spiritual food did eat,
field: 46010004
46
10
4
and all the same spiritual drink did drink, for they were drinking of a spiritual rock following them, and the rock was the Christ;
field: 46010005
46
10
5
but in the most of them God was not well pleased, for they were strewn in the wilderness,
field: 46010006
46
10
6
and those things became types of us, for our not passionately desiring evil things, as also these did desire.
field: 46010007
46
10
7
Neither become ye idolaters, as certain of them, as it hath been written, `The people sat down to eat and to drink, and stood up to play;'
field: 46010008
46
10
8
neither may we commit whoredom, as certain of them did commit whoredom, and there fell in one day twenty-three thousand;
field: 46010009
46
10
9
neither may we tempt the Christ, as also certain of them did tempt, and by the serpents did perish;
field: 46010010
46
10
10
neither murmur ye, as also some of them did murmur, and did perish by the destroyer.
field: 46010011
46
10
11
And all these things as types did happen to those persons, and they were written for our admonition, to whom the end of the ages did come,
field: 46010012
46
10
12
so that he who is thinking to stand -- let him observe, lest he fall.
field: 46010013
46
10
13
No temptation hath taken you -- except human; and God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what ye are able, but He will make, with the temptation, also the outlet, for your being able to bear `it'.
field: 46010014
46
10
14
Wherefore, my beloved, flee from the idolatry;
field: 46010015
46
10
15
as to wise men I speak -- judge ye what I say:
field: 46010016
46
10
16
The cup of the blessing that we bless -- is it not the fellowship of the blood of the Christ? the bread that we break -- is it not the fellowship of the body of the Christ?
field: 46010017
46
10
17
because one bread, one body, are we the many -- for we all of the one bread do partake.
field: 46010018
46
10
18
See Israel according to the flesh! are not those eating the sacrifices in the fellowship of the altar?
field: 46010019
46
10
19
what then do I say? that an idol is anything? or that a sacrifice offered to an idol is anything? --
field: 46010020
46
10
20
`no,' but that the things that the nations sacrifice -- they sacrifice to demons and not to God; and I do not wish you to come into the fellowship of the demons.
field: 46010021
46
10
21
Ye are not able the cup of the Lord to drink, and the cup of demons; ye are not able of the table of the Lord to partake, and of the table of demons;
field: 46010022
46
10
22
do we arouse the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than He?
field: 46010023
46
10
23
All things to me are lawful, but all things are not profitable; all things to me are lawful, but all things do not build up;
field: 46010024
46
10
24
let no one seek his own -- but each another's.
field: 46010025
46
10
25
Whatever in the meat-market is sold eat ye, not inquiring, because of the conscience,
field: 46010026
46
10
26
for the Lord's `is' the earth, and its fulness;
field: 46010027
46
10
27
and if any one of the unbelieving do call you, and ye wish to go, all that is set before you eat, nothing inquiring, because of the conscience;
field: 46010028
46
10
28
and if any one may say to you, `This is a thing sacrificed to an idol,' -- do not eat, because of that one who shewed `it', and of the conscience, for the Lord's `is' the earth and its fulness:
field: 46010029
46
10
29
and conscience, I say, not of thyself, but of the other, for why `is it' that my liberty is judged by another's conscience?
field: 46010030
46
10
30
and if I thankfully do partake, why am I evil spoken of, for that for which I give thanks?
field: 46010031
46
10
31
Whether, then, ye eat, or drink, or do anything, do all to the glory of God;
field: 46010032
46
10
32
become offenceless, both to Jews and Greeks, and to the assembly of God;
field: 46010033
46
10
33
as I also in all things do please all, not seeking my own profit, but that of many -- that they may be saved.
field: 46011001
46
11
1
Followers of me become ye, as I also `am' of Christ.
field: 46011002
46
11
2
And I praise you, brethren, that in all things ye remember me, and according as I did deliver to you, the deliverances ye keep,
field: 46011003
46
11
3
and I wish you to know that of every man the head is the Christ, and the head of a woman is the husband, and the head of Christ is God.
field: 46011004
46
11
4
Every man praying or prophesying, having the head covered, doth dishonour his head,
field: 46011005
46
11
5
and every woman praying or prophesying with the head uncovered, doth dishonour her own head, for it is one and the same thing with her being shaven,
field: 46011006
46
11
6
for if a woman is not covered -- then let her be shorn, and if `it is' a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven -- let her be covered;
field: 46011007
46
11
7
for a man, indeed, ought not to cover the head, being the image and glory of God, and a woman is the glory of a man,
field: 46011008
46
11
8
for a man is not of a woman, but a woman `is' of a man,
field: 46011009
46
11
9
for a man also was not created because of the woman, but a woman because of the man;
field: 46011010
46
11
10
because of this the woman ought to have `a token of' authority upon the head, because of the messengers;
field: 46011011
46
11
11
but neither `is' a man apart from a woman, nor a woman apart from a man, in the Lord,
field: 46011012
46
11
12
for as the woman `is' of the man, so also the man `is' through the woman, and the all things `are' of God.
field: 46011013
46
11
13
In your own selves judge ye; is it seemly for a woman uncovered to pray to God?
field: 46011014
46
11
14
doth not even nature itself teach you, that if a man indeed have long hair, a dishonour it is to him?
field: 46011015
46
11
15
and a woman, if she have long hair, a glory it is to her, because the hair instead of a covering hath been given to her;
field: 46011016
46
11
16
and if any one doth think to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the assemblies of God.
field: 46011017
46
11
17
And this declaring, I give no praise, because not for the better, but for the worse ye come together;
field: 46011018
46
11
18
for first, indeed, ye coming together in an assembly, I hear of divisions being among you, and partly I believe `it',
field: 46011019
46
11
19
for it behoveth sects also to be among you, that those approved may become manifest among you;
field: 46011020
46
11
20
ye, then, coming together at the same place -- it is not to eat the Lord's supper;
field: 46011021
46
11
21
for each his own supper doth take before in the eating, and one is hungry, and another is drunk;
field: 46011022
46
11
22
why, have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or the assembly of God do ye despise, and shame those not having? what may I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I do not praise!
field: 46011023
46
11
23
For I -- I received from the Lord that which also I did deliver to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which he was delivered up, took bread,
field: 46011024
46
11
24
and having given thanks, he brake, and said, `Take ye, eat ye, this is my body, that for you is being broken; this do ye -- to the remembrance of me.'
field: 46011025
46
11
25
In like manner also the cup after the supping, saying, `This cup is the new covenant in my blood; this do ye, as often as ye may drink `it' -- to the remembrance of me;'
field: 46011026
46
11
26
for as often as ye may eat this bread, and this cup may drink, the death of the Lord ye do shew forth -- till he may come;
field: 46011027
46
11
27
so that whoever may eat this bread or may drink the cup of the Lord unworthily, guilty he shall be of the body and blood of the Lord:
field: 46011028
46
11
28
and let a man be proving himself, and so of the bread let him eat, and of the cup let him drink;
field: 46011029
46
11
29
for he who is eating and drinking unworthily, judgment to himself he doth eat and drink -- not discerning the body of the Lord.
field: 46011030
46
11
30
Because of this, among you many `are' weak and sickly, and sleep do many;
field: 46011031
46
11
31
for if ourselves we were discerning, we would not be being judged,
field: 46011032
46
11
32
and being judged by the Lord, we are chastened, that with the world we may not be condemned;
field: 46011033
46
11
33
so then, my brethren, coming together to eat, for one another wait ye;
field: 46011034
46
11
34
and if any one is hungry, at home let him eat, that to judgment ye may not come together; and the rest, whenever I may come, I shall arrange.
field: 46012001
46
12
1
And concerning the spiritual things, brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant;
field: 46012002
46
12
2
ye have known that ye were nations, unto the dumb idols -- as ye were led -- being carried away;
field: 46012003
46
12
3
wherefore, I give you to understand that no one, in the Spirit of God speaking, saith Jesus `is' anathema, and no one is able to say Jesus `is' Lord, except in the Holy Spirit.
field: 46012004
46
12
4
And there are diversities of gifts, and the same Spirit;
field: 46012005
46
12
5
and there are diversities of ministrations, and the same Lord;
field: 46012006
46
12
6
and there are diversities of workings, and it is the same God -- who is working the all in all.
field: 46012007
46
12
7
And to each hath been given the manifestation of the Spirit for profit;
field: 46012008
46
12
8
for to one through the Spirit hath been given a word of wisdom, and to another a word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
field: 46012009
46
12
9
and to another faith in the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healings in the same Spirit;
field: 46012010
46
12
10
and to another in-workings of mighty deeds; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; and to another `divers' kinds of tongues; and to another interpretation of tongues:
field: 46012011
46
12
11
and all these doth work the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each severally as he intendeth.
field: 46012012
46
12
12
For, even as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the one body, being many, are one body, so also `is' the Christ,
field: 46012013
46
12
13
for also in one Spirit we all to one body were baptized, whether Jews or Greeks, whether servants or freemen, and all into one Spirit were made to drink,
field: 46012014
46
12
14
for also the body is not one member, but many;
field: 46012015
46
12
15
if the foot may say, `Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body;' it is not, because of this, not of the body;
field: 46012016
46
12
16
and if the ear may say, `Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body;' it is not, because of this, not of the body?
field: 46012017
46
12
17
If the whole body `were' an eye, where the hearing? if the whole hearing, where the smelling?
field: 46012018
46
12
18
and now, God did set the members each one of them in the body, according as He willed,
field: 46012019
46
12
19
and if all were one member, where the body?
field: 46012020
46
12
20
and now, indeed, `are' many members, and one body;
field: 46012021
46
12
21
and an eye is not able to say to the hand, `I have no need of thee;' nor again the head to the feet, `I have no need of you.'
field: 46012022
46
12
22
But much more the members of the body which seem to be more infirm are necessary,
field: 46012023
46
12
23
and those that we think to be less honourable of the body, around these we put more abundant honour, and our unseemly things have seemliness more abundant,
field: 46012024
46
12
24
and our seemly things have no need; but God did temper the body together, to the lacking part having given more abundant honour,
field: 46012025
46
12
25
that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same anxiety for one another,
field: 46012026
46
12
26
and whether one member doth suffer, suffer with `it' do all the members, or one member is glorified, rejoice with `it' do all the members;
field: 46012027
46
12
27
and ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
field: 46012028
46
12
28
And some, indeed, did God set in the assembly, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, afterwards powers, afterwards gifts of healings, helpings, governings, divers kinds of tongues;
field: 46012029
46
12
29
`are' all apostles? `are' all prophets? `are' all teachers? `are' all powers?
field: 46012030
46
12
30
have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
field: 46012031
46
12
31
and desire earnestly the better gifts; and yet a far excelling way do I shew to you:
field: 46013001
46
13
1
If with the tongues of men and of messengers I speak, and have not love, I have become brass sounding, or a cymbal tinkling;
field: 46013002
46
13
2
and if I have prophecy, and know all the secrets, and all the knowledge, and if I have all the faith, so as to remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing;
field: 46013003
46
13
3
and if I give away to feed others all my goods, and if I give up my body that I may be burned, and have not love, I am profited nothing.
field: 46013004
46
13
4
The love is long-suffering, it is kind, the love doth not envy, the love doth not vaunt itself, is not puffed up,
field: 46013005
46
13
5
doth not act unseemly, doth not seek its own things, is not provoked, doth not impute evil,
field: 46013006
46
13
6
rejoiceth not over the unrighteousness, and rejoiceth with the truth;
field: 46013007
46
13
7
all things it beareth, all it believeth, all it hopeth, all it endureth.
field: 46013008
46
13
8
The love doth never fail; and whether `there be' prophecies, they shall become useless; whether tongues, they shall cease; whether knowledge, it shall become useless;
field: 46013009
46
13
9
for in part we know, and in part we prophecy;
field: 46013010
46
13
10
and when that which is perfect may come, then that which `is' in part shall become useless.
field: 46013011
46
13
11
When I was a babe, as a babe I was speaking, as a babe I was thinking, as a babe I was reasoning, and when I have become a man, I have made useless the things of the babe;
field: 46013012
46
13
12
for we see now through a mirror obscurely, and then face to face; now I know in part, and then I shall fully know, as also I was known;
field: 46013013
46
13
13
and now there doth remain faith, hope, love -- these three; and the greatest of these `is' love.
field: 46014001
46
14
1
Pursue the love, and seek earnestly the spiritual things, and rather that ye may prophecy,
field: 46014002
46
14
2
for he who is speaking in an `unknown' tongue -- to men he doth not speak, but to God, for no one doth hearken, and in spirit he doth speak secrets;
field: 46014003
46
14
3
and he who is prophesying to men doth speak edification, and exhortation, and comfort;
field: 46014004
46
14
4
he who is speaking in an `unknown' tongue, himself doth edify, and he who is prophesying, an assembly doth edify;
field: 46014005
46
14
5
and I wish you all to speak with tongues, and more that ye may prophecy, for greater is he who is prophesying than he who is speaking with tongues, except one may interpret, that the assembly may receive edification.
field: 46014006
46
14
6
And now, brethren, if I may come unto you speaking tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophesying, or in teaching?
field: 46014007
46
14
7
yet the things without life giving sound -- whether pipe or harp -- if a difference in the sounds they may not give, how shall be known that which is piped or that which is harped?
field: 46014008
46
14
8
for if also an uncertain sound a trumpet may give, who shall prepare himself for battle?
field: 46014009
46
14
9
so also ye, if through the tongue, speech easily understood ye may not give -- how shall that which is spoken be known? for ye shall be speaking to air.
field: 46014010
46
14
10
There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is unmeaning,
field: 46014011
46
14
11
if, then, I do not know the power of the voice, I shall be to him who is speaking a foreigner, and he who is speaking, is to me a foreigner;
field: 46014012
46
14
12
so also ye, since ye are earnestly desirous of spiritual gifts, for the building up of the assembly seek that ye may abound;
field: 46014013
46
14
13
wherefore he who is speaking in an `unknown' tongue -- let him pray that he may interpret;
field: 46014014
46
14
14
for if I pray in an `unknown' tongue, my spirit doth pray, and my understanding is unfruitful.
field: 46014015
46
14
15
What then is it? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray also with the understanding; I will sing psalms with the spirit, and I will sing psalms also with the understanding;
field: 46014016
46
14
16
since, if thou mayest bless with the spirit, he who is filling the place of the unlearned, how shall he say the Amen at thy giving of thanks, since what thou dost say he hath not known?
field: 46014017
46
14
17
for thou, indeed, dost give thanks well, but the other is not built up!
field: 46014018
46
14
18
I give thanks to my God -- more than you all with tongues speaking --
field: 46014019
46
14
19
but in an assembly I wish to speak five words through my understanding, that others also I may instruct, rather than myriads of words in an `unknown' tongue.
field: 46014020
46
14
20
Brethren, become not children in the understanding, but in the evil be ye babes, and in the understanding become ye perfect;
field: 46014021
46
14
21
in the law it hath been written, that, `With other tongues and with other lips I will speak to this people, and not even so will they hear Me, saith the Lord;'
field: 46014022
46
14
22
so that the tongues are for a sign, not to the believing, but to the unbelieving; and the prophesy `is' not for the unbelieving, but for the believing,
field: 46014023
46
14
23
If, therefore, the whole assembly may come together, to the same place, and all may speak with tongues, and there may come in unlearned or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?
field: 46014024
46
14
24
and if all may prophecy, and any one may come in, an unbeliever or unlearned, he is convicted by all, he is discerned by all,
field: 46014025
46
14
25
and so the secrets of his heart become manifest, and so having fallen upon `his' face, he will bow before God, declaring that God really is among you.
field: 46014026
46
14
26
What then is it, brethren? whenever ye may come together, each of you hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation? let all things be for building up;
field: 46014027
46
14
27
if an `unknown' tongue any one do speak, by two, or at the most, by three, and in turn, and let one interpret;
field: 46014028
46
14
28
and if there may be no interpreter, let him be silent in an assembly, and to himself let him speak, and to God.
field: 46014029
46
14
29
And prophets -- let two or three speak, and let the others discern,
field: 46014030
46
14
30
and if to another sitting `anything' may be revealed, let the first be silent;
field: 46014031
46
14
31
for ye are able, one by one, all to prophesy, that all may learn, and all may be exhorted,
field: 46014032
46
14
32
and the spiritual gift of prophets to prophets are subject,
field: 46014033
46
14
33
for God is not `a God' of tumult, but of peace, as in all the assemblies of the saints.
field: 46014034
46
14
34
Your women in the assemblies let them be silent, for it hath not been permitted to them to speak, but to be subject, as also the law saith;
field: 46014035
46
14
35
and if they wish to learn anything, at home their own husbands let them question, for it is a shame to women to speak in an assembly.
field: 46014036
46
14
36
From you did the word of God come forth? or to you alone did it come?
field: 46014037
46
14
37
if any one doth think to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge the things that I write to you -- that of the Lord they are commands;
field: 46014038
46
14
38
and if any one is ignorant -- let him be ignorant;
field: 46014039
46
14
39
so that, brethren, earnestly desire to prophesy, and to speak with tongues do not forbid;
field: 46014040
46
14
40
let all things be done decently and in order.
field: 46015001
46
15
1
And I make known to you, brethren, the good news that I proclaimed to you, which also ye did receive, in which also ye have stood,
field: 46015002
46
15
2
through which also ye are being saved, in what words I proclaimed good news to you, if ye hold fast, except ye did believe in vain,
field: 46015003
46
15
3
for I delivered to you first, what also I did receive, that Christ died for our sins, according to the Writings,
field: 46015004
46
15
4
and that he was buried, and that he hath risen on the third day, according to the Writings,
field: 46015005
46
15
5
and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve,
field: 46015006
46
15
6
afterwards he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain till now, and certain also did fall asleep;
field: 46015007
46
15
7
afterwards he appeared to James, then to all the apostles.
field: 46015008
46
15
8
And last of all -- as to the untimely birth -- he appeared also to me,
field: 46015009
46
15
9
for I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I did persecute the assembly of God,
field: 46015010
46
15
10
and by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace that `is' towards me came not in vain, but more abundantly than they all did I labour, yet not I, but the grace of God that `is' with me;
field: 46015011
46
15
11
whether, then, I or they, so we preach, and so ye did believe.
field: 46015012
46
15
12
And if Christ is preached, that out of the dead he hath risen, how say certain among you, that there is no rising again of dead persons?
field: 46015013
46
15
13
and if there be no rising again of dead persons, neither hath Christ risen;
field: 46015014
46
15
14
and if Christ hath not risen, then void `is' our preaching, and void also your faith,
field: 46015015
46
15
15
and we also are found false witnesses of God, because we did testify of God that He raised up the Christ, whom He did not raise if then dead persons do not rise;
field: 46015016
46
15
16
for if dead persons do not rise, neither hath Christ risen,
field: 46015017
46
15
17
and if Christ hath not risen, vain is your faith, ye are yet in your sins;
field: 46015018
46
15
18
then, also, those having fallen asleep in Christ did perish;
field: 46015019
46
15
19
if in this life we have hope in Christ only, of all men we are most to be pitied.
field: 46015020
46
15
20
And now, Christ hath risen out of the dead -- the first-fruits of those sleeping he became,
field: 46015021
46
15
21
for since through man `is' the death, also through man `is' a rising again of the dead,
field: 46015022
46
15
22
for even as in Adam all die, so also in the Christ all shall be made alive,
field: 46015023
46
15
23
and each in his proper order, a first-fruit Christ, afterwards those who are the Christ's, in his presence,
field: 46015024
46
15
24
then -- the end, when he may deliver up the reign to God, even the Father, when he may have made useless all rule, and all authority and power --
field: 46015025
46
15
25
for it behoveth him to reign till he may have put all the enemies under his feet --
field: 46015026
46
15
26
the last enemy is done away -- death;
field: 46015027
46
15
27
for all things He did put under his feet, and, when one may say that all things have been subjected, `it is' evident that He is excepted who did subject the all things to him,
field: 46015028
46
15
28
and when the all things may be subjected to him, then the Son also himself shall be subject to Him, who did subject to him the all things, that God may be the all in all.
field: 46015029
46
15
29
Seeing what shall they do who are baptized for the dead, if the dead do not rise at all? why also are they baptized for the dead?
field: 46015030
46
15
30
why also do we stand in peril every hour?
field: 46015031
46
15
31
Every day do I die, by the glorying of you that I have in Christ Jesus our Lord:
field: 46015032
46
15
32
if after the manner of a man with wild beasts I fought in Ephesus, what the advantage to me if the dead do not rise? let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die!
field: 46015033
46
15
33
Be not led astray; evil communications corrupt good manners;
field: 46015034
46
15
34
awake up, as is right, and sin not; for certain have an ignorance of God; for shame to you I say `it'.
field: 46015035
46
15
35
But some one will say, `How do the dead rise?
field: 46015036
46
15
36
unwise! thou -- what thou dost sow is not quickened except it may die;
field: 46015037
46
15
37
and that which thou dost sow, not the body that shall be dost thou sow, but bare grain, it may be of wheat, or of some one of the others,
field: 46015038
46
15
38
and God doth give to it a body according as He willed, and to each of the seeds its proper body.
field: 46015039
46
15
39
All flesh `is' not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another of fishes, and another of birds;
field: 46015040
46
15
40
and `there are' heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies; but one `is' the glory of the heavenly, and another that of the earthly;
field: 46015041
46
15
41
one glory of sun, and another glory of moon, and another glory of stars, for star from star doth differ in glory.
field: 46015042
46
15
42
So also `is' the rising again of the dead: it is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption;
field: 46015043
46
15
43
it is sown in dishonour, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;
field: 46015044
46
15
44
it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body; there is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body;
field: 46015045
46
15
45
so also it hath been written, `The first man Adam became a living creature,' the last Adam `is' for a life-giving spirit,
field: 46015046
46
15
46
but that which is spiritual `is' not first, but that which `was' natural, afterwards that which `is' spiritual.
field: 46015047
46
15
47
The first man `is' out of the earth, earthy; the second man `is' the Lord out of heaven;
field: 46015048
46
15
48
as `is' the earthy, such `are' also the earthy; and as `is' the heavenly, such `are' also the heavenly;
field: 46015049
46
15
49
and, according as we did bear the image of the earthy, we shall bear also the image of the heavenly.
field: 46015050
46
15
50
And this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood the reign of God is not able to inherit, nor doth the corruption inherit the incorruption;
field: 46015051
46
15
51
lo, I tell you a secret; we indeed shall not all sleep, and we all shall be changed;
field: 46015052
46
15
52
in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, in the last trumpet, for it shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we -- we shall be changed:
field: 46015053
46
15
53
for it behoveth this corruptible to put on incorruption, and this mortal to put on immortality;
field: 46015054
46
15
54
and when this corruptible may have put on incorruption, and this mortal may have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the word that hath been written, `The Death was swallowed up -- to victory;
field: 46015055
46
15
55
where, O Death, thy sting? where, O Hades, thy victory?'
field: 46015056
46
15
56
and the sting of the death `is' the sin, and the power of the sin the law;
field: 46015057
46
15
57
and to God -- thanks, to Him who is giving us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ;
field: 46015058
46
15
58
so that, my brethren beloved, become ye stedfast, unmovable, abounding in the work of the Lord at all times, knowing that your labour is not vain in the Lord.
field: 46016001
46
16
1
And concerning the collection that `is' for the saints, as I directed to the assemblies of Galatia, so also ye -- do ye;
field: 46016002
46
16
2
on every first `day' of the week, let each one of you lay by him, treasuring up whatever he may have prospered, that when I may come then collections may not be made;
field: 46016003
46
16
3
and whenever I may come, whomsoever ye may approve, through letters, these I will send to carry your favour to Jerusalem;
field: 46016004
46
16
4
and if it be meet for me also to go, with me they shall go.
field: 46016005
46
16
5
And I will come unto you, when I pass through Macedonia -- for Macedonia I do pass through --
field: 46016006
46
16
6
and with you, it may be, I will abide, or even winter, that ye may send me forward whithersoever I go,
field: 46016007
46
16
7
for I do not wish to see you now in the passing, but I hope to remain a certain time with you, if the Lord may permit;
field: 46016008
46
16
8
and I will remain in Ephesus till the Pentecost,
field: 46016009
46
16
9
for a door to me hath been opened -- great and effectual -- and withstanders `are' many.
field: 46016010
46
16
10
And if Timotheus may come, see that he may become without fear with you, for the work of the Lord he doth work, even as I,
field: 46016011
46
16
11
no one, then, may despise him; and send ye him forward in peace, that he may come to me, for I expect him with the brethren;
field: 46016012
46
16
12
and concerning Apollos our brother, much I did entreat him that he may come unto you with the brethren, and it was not at all `his' will that he may come now, and he will come when he may find convenient.
field: 46016013
46
16
13
Watch ye, stand in the faith; be men, be strong;
field: 46016014
46
16
14
let all your things be done in love.
field: 46016015
46
16
15
And I entreat you, brethren, ye have known the household of Stephanas, that it is the first-fruit of Achaia, and to the ministration to the saints they did set themselves --
field: 46016016
46
16
16
that ye also be subject to such, and to every one who is working with `us' and labouring;
field: 46016017
46
16
17
and I rejoice over the presence of Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus, because the lack of you did these fill up;
field: 46016018
46
16
18
for they did refresh my spirit and yours; acknowledge ye, therefore, those who `are' such.
field: 46016019
46
16
19
Salute you do the assemblies of Asia; salute you much in the Lord do Aquilas and Priscilla, with the assembly in their house;
field: 46016020
46
16
20
salute you do all the brethren; salute ye one another in an holy kiss.
field: 46016021
46
16
21
The salutation of `me' Paul with my hand;
field: 46016022
46
16
22
if any one doth not love the Lord Jesus Christ -- let him be anathema! The Lord hath come!
field: 46016023
46
16
23
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ `is' with you;
field: 46016024
46
16
24
my love `is' with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
field: 47001001
47
1
1
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, through the will of God, and Timotheus the brother, to the assembly of God that is in Corinth, with all the saints who are in all Achaia:
field: 47001002
47
1
2
Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!
field: 47001003
47
1
3
Blessed `is' God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of the mercies, and God of all comfort,
field: 47001004
47
1
4
who is comforting us in all our tribulation, for our being able to comfort those in any tribulation through the comfort with which we are comforted ourselves by God;
field: 47001005
47
1
5
because, as the sufferings of the Christ do abound to us, so through the Christ doth abound also our comfort;
field: 47001006
47
1
6
and whether we be in tribulation, `it is' for your comfort and salvation, that is wrought in the enduring of the same sufferings that we also suffer; whether we are comforted, `it is' for your comfort and salvation;
field: 47001007
47
1
7
and our hope `is' stedfast for you, knowing that even as ye are partakers of the sufferings -- so also of the comfort.
field: 47001008
47
1
8
For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, of our tribulation that happened to us in Asia, that we were exceedingly burdened above `our' power, so that we despaired even of life;
field: 47001009
47
1
9
but we ourselves in ourselves the sentence of the death have had, that we may not be trusting on ourselves, but on God, who is raising the dead,
field: 47001010
47
1
10
who out of so great a death did deliver us, and doth deliver, in whom we have hoped that even yet He will deliver;
field: 47001011
47
1
11
ye working together also for us by your supplication, that the gift through many persons to us, through many may be thankfully acknowledged for us.
field: 47001012
47
1
12
For our glorying is this: the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom, but in the grace of God, we did conduct ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you;
field: 47001013
47
1
13
for no other things do we write to you, but what ye either do read or also acknowledge, and I hope that also unto the end ye shall acknowledge,
field: 47001014
47
1
14
according as also ye did acknowledge us in part, that your glory we are, even as also ye `are' ours, in the day of the Lord Jesus;
field: 47001015
47
1
15
and in this confidence I was purposing to come unto you before, that a second favour ye might have,
field: 47001016
47
1
16
and through you to pass to Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come unto you, and by you to be sent forward to Judea.
field: 47001017
47
1
17
This, therefore, counselling, did I then use the lightness; or the things that I counsel, according to the flesh do I counsel, that it may be with me Yes, yes, and No, no?
field: 47001018
47
1
18
and God `is' faithful, that our word unto you became not Yes and No,
field: 47001019
47
1
19
for the Son of God, Jesus Christ, among you through us having been preached -- through me and Silvanus and Timotheus -- did not become Yes and No, but in him it hath become Yes;
field: 47001020
47
1
20
for as many as `are' promises of God, in him `are' the Yes, and in him the Amen, for glory to God through us;
field: 47001021
47
1
21
and He who is confirming you with us into Christ, and did anoint us, `is' God,
field: 47001022
47
1
22
who also sealed us, and gave the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
field: 47001023
47
1
23
And I for a witness on God do call upon my soul, that sparing you, I came not yet to Corinth;
field: 47001024
47
1
24
not that we are lords over your faith, but we are workers together with your joy, for by the faith ye stand.
field: 47002001
47
2
1
And I decided this to myself, not again to come in sorrow unto you,
field: 47002002
47
2
2
for if I make you sorry, then who is he who is making me glad, except he who is made sorry by me?
field: 47002003
47
2
3
and I wrote to you this same thing, that having come, I may not have sorrow from them of whom it behoved me to have joy, having confidence in you all, that my joy is of you all,
field: 47002004
47
2
4
for out of much tribulation and pressure of heart I wrote to you through many tears, not that ye might be made sorry, but that ye might know the love that I have more abundantly toward you.
field: 47002005
47
2
5
And if any one hath caused sorrow, he hath not caused sorrow to me, but in part, that I may not burden you all;
field: 47002006
47
2
6
sufficient to such a one is this punishment, that `is' by the more part,
field: 47002007
47
2
7
so that, on the contrary, `it is' rather for you to forgive and to comfort, lest by over abundant sorrow such a one may be swallowed up;
field: 47002008
47
2
8
wherefore, I call upon you to confirm love to him,
field: 47002009
47
2
9
for, for this also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether in regard to all things ye are obedient.
field: 47002010
47
2
10
And to whom ye forgive anything -- I also; for I also, if I have forgiven anything, to whom I have forgiven `it', because of you -- in the person of Christ -- `I forgive it,'
field: 47002011
47
2
11
that we may not be over-reached by the Adversary, for of his devices we are not ignorant.
field: 47002012
47
2
12
And having come to Troas for the good news of the Christ, and a door to me having been opened in the Lord,
field: 47002013
47
2
13
I have not had rest to my spirit, on my not finding Titus my brother, but having taken leave of them, I went forth to Macedonia;
field: 47002014
47
2
14
and to God `are' thanks, who at all times is leading us in triumph in the Christ, and the fragrance of His knowledge He is manifesting through us in every place,
field: 47002015
47
2
15
because of Christ a sweet fragrance we are to God, in those being saved, and in those being lost;
field: 47002016
47
2
16
to the one, indeed, a fragrance of death to death, and to the other, a fragrance of life to life; and for these things who is sufficient?
field: 47002017
47
2
17
for we are not as the many, adulterating the word of God, but as of sincerity -- but as of God; in the presence of God, in Christ we do speak.

Do we begin again to recommend ourselves, except we need, as some, letters of recommendation unto you, or from you?
field: 47003002
47
3
2
our letter ye are, having been written in our hearts, known and read by all men,
field: 47003003
47
3
3
manifested that ye are a letter of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God, not in the tablets of stone, but in fleshy tablets of the heart,
field: 47003004
47
3
4
and such trust we have through the Christ toward God,
field: 47003005
47
3
5
not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything, as of ourselves, but our sufficiency `is' of God,
field: 47003006
47
3
6
who also made us sufficient `to be' ministrants of a new covenant, not of letter, but of spirit; for the letter doth kill, and the spirit doth make alive.
field: 47003007
47
3
7
and if the ministration of the death, in letters, engraved in stones, came in glory, so that the sons of Israel were not able to look stedfastly to the face of Moses, because of the glory of his face -- which was being made useless,
field: 47003008
47
3
8
how shall the ministration of the Spirit not be more in glory?
field: 47003009
47
3
9
for if the ministration of the condemnation `is' glory, much more doth the ministration of the righteousness abound in glory;
field: 47003010
47
3
10
for also even that which hath been glorious, hath not been glorious -- in this respect, because of the superior glory;
field: 47003011
47
3
11
for if that which is being made useless `is' through glory, much more that which is remaining `is' in glory.
field: 47003012
47
3
12
Having, then, such hope, we use much freedom of speech,
field: 47003013
47
3
13
and `are' not as Moses, who was putting a vail upon his own face, for the sons of Israel not stedfastly to look to the end of that which is being made useless,
field: 47003014
47
3
14
but their minds were hardened, for unto this day the same vail at the reading of the Old Covenant doth remain unwithdrawn -- which in Christ is being made useless --
field: 47003015
47
3
15
but till to-day, when Moses is read, a vail upon their heart doth lie,
field: 47003016
47
3
16
and whenever they may turn unto the Lord, the vail is taken away.
field: 47003017
47
3
17
And the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord `is', there `is' liberty;
field: 47003018
47
3
18
and we all, with unvailed face, the glory of the Lord beholding in a mirror, to the same image are being transformed, from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
field: 47004001
47
4
1
Because of this, having this ministration, according as we did receive kindness, we do not faint,
field: 47004002
47
4
2
but did renounce for ourselves the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor deceitfully using the word of God, but by the manifestation of the truth recommending ourselves unto every conscience of men, before God;
field: 47004003
47
4
3
and if also our good news is vailed, in those perishing it is vailed,
field: 47004004
47
4
4
in whom the god of this age did blind the minds of the unbelieving, that there doth not shine forth to them the enlightening of the good news of the glory of the Christ, who is the image of God;
field: 47004005
47
4
5
for not ourselves do we preach, but Christ Jesus -- Lord, and ourselves your servants because of Jesus;
field: 47004006
47
4
6
because `it is' God who said, Out of darkness light `is' to shine, who did shine in our hearts, for the enlightening of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
field: 47004007
47
4
7
And we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us;
field: 47004008
47
4
8
on every side being in tribulation, but not straitened; perplexed, but not in despair;
field: 47004009
47
4
9
persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
field: 47004010
47
4
10
at all times the dying of the Lord Jesus bearing about in the body, that the life also of Jesus in our body may be manifested,
field: 47004011
47
4
11
for always are we who are living delivered up to death because of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our dying flesh,
field: 47004012
47
4
12
so that, the death indeed in us doth work, and the life in you.
field: 47004013
47
4
13
And having the same spirit of the faith, according to that which hath been written, `I believed, therefore I did speak;' we also do believe, therefore also do we speak;
field: 47004014
47
4
14
knowing that He who did raise up the Lord Jesus, us also through Jesus shall raise up, and shall present with you,
field: 47004015
47
4
15
for the all things `are' because of you, that the grace having been multiplied, because of the thanksgiving of the more, may abound to the glory of God;
field: 47004016
47
4
16
wherefore, we faint not, but if also our outward man doth decay, yet the inward is renewed day by day;
field: 47004017
47
4
17
for the momentary light matter of our tribulation, more and more exceedingly an age-during weight of glory doth work out for us --
field: 47004018
47
4
18
we not looking to the things seen, but to the things not seen; for the things seen `are' temporary, but the things not seen `are' age-during.
field: 47005001
47
5
1
For we have known that if our earthly house of the tabernacle may be thrown down, a building from God we have, an house not made with hands -- age-during -- in the heavens,
field: 47005002
47
5
2
for also in this we groan, with our dwelling that is from heaven earnestly desiring to clothe ourselves,
field: 47005003
47
5
3
if so be that, having clothed ourselves, we shall not be found naked,
field: 47005004
47
5
4
for we also who are in the tabernacle do groan, being burdened, seeing we wish not to unclothe ourselves, but to clothe ourselves, that the mortal may be swallowed up of the life.
field: 47005005
47
5
5
And He who did work us to this self-same thing `is' God, who also did give to us the earnest of the Spirit;
field: 47005006
47
5
6
having courage, then, at all times, and knowing that being at home in the body, we are away from home from the Lord, --
field: 47005007
47
5
7
for through faith we walk, not through sight --
field: 47005008
47
5
8
we have courage, and are well pleased rather to be away from the home of the body, and to be at home with the Lord.
field: 47005009
47
5
9
Wherefore also we are ambitious, whether at home or away from home, to be well pleasing to him,
field: 47005010
47
5
10
for all of us it behoveth to be manifested before the tribunal of the Christ, that each one may receive the things `done' through the body, in reference to the things that he did, whether good or evil;
field: 47005011
47
5
11
having known, therefore, the fear of the Lord, we persuade men, and to God we are manifested, and I hope also in your consciences to have been manifested;
field: 47005012
47
5
12
for not again ourselves do we recommend to you, but we are giving occasion to you of glorifying in our behalf, that ye may have `something' in reference to those glorifying in face and not in heart;
field: 47005013
47
5
13
for whether we were beside ourselves, `it was' to God; whether we be of sound mind -- `it is' to you,
field: 47005014
47
5
14
for the love of the Christ doth constrain us, having judged thus: that if one for all died, then the whole died,
field: 47005015
47
5
15
and for all he died, that those living, no more to themselves may live, but to him who died for them, and was raised again.
field: 47005016
47
5
16
So that we henceforth have known no one according to the flesh, and even if we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know him no more;
field: 47005017
47
5
17
so that if any one `is' in Christ -- `he is' a new creature; the old things did pass away, lo, become new have the all things.
field: 47005018
47
5
18
And the all things `are' of God, who reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and did give to us the ministration of the reconciliation,
field: 47005019
47
5
19
how that God was in Christ -- a world reconciling to Himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses; and having put in us the word of the reconciliation,
field: 47005020
47
5
20
in behalf of Christ, then, we are ambassadors, as if God were calling through us, we beseech, in behalf of Christ, `Be ye reconciled to God;'
field: 47005021
47
5
21
for him who did not know sin, in our behalf He did make sin, that we may become the righteousness of God in him.
field: 47006001
47
6
1
And working together also we call upon `you' that ye receive not in vain the grace of God --
field: 47006002
47
6
2
for He saith, `In an acceptable time I did hear thee, and in a day of salvation I did help thee, lo, now `is' a well-accepted time; lo, now, a day of salvation,' --
field: 47006003
47
6
3
in nothing giving any cause of offence, that the ministration may be not blamed,
field: 47006004
47
6
4
but in everything recommending ourselves as God's ministrants; in much patience, in tribulations, in necessities, in distresses,
field: 47006005
47
6
5
in stripes, in imprisonments, in insurrections, in labours, in watchings, in fastings,
field: 47006006
47
6
6
in pureness, in knowledge, in long-suffering, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in love unfeigned,
field: 47006007
47
6
7
in the word of truth, in the power of God, through the armour of the righteousness, on the right and on the left,
field: 47006008
47
6
8
through glory and dishonour, through evil report and good report, as leading astray, and true;
field: 47006009
47
6
9
as unknown, and recognized; as dying, and lo, we live; as chastened, and not put to death;
field: 47006010
47
6
10
as sorrowful, and always rejoicing; as poor, and making many rich; as having nothing, and possessing all things.
field: 47006011
47
6
11
Our mouth hath been open unto you, O Corinthians, our heart hath been enlarged!
field: 47006012
47
6
12
ye are not straitened in us, and ye are straitened in your `own' bowels,
field: 47006013
47
6
13
and `as' a recompense of the same kind, (as to children I say `it',) be ye enlarged -- also ye!
field: 47006014
47
6
14
Become not yoked with others -- unbelievers, for what partaking `is there' to righteousness and lawlessness?
field: 47006015
47
6
15
and what fellowship to light with darkness? and what concord to Christ with Belial? or what part to a believer with an unbeliever?
field: 47006016
47
6
16
and what agreement to the sanctuary of God with idols? for ye are a sanctuary of the living God, according as God said -- `I will dwell in them, and will walk among `them', and I will be their God, and they shall be My people,
field: 47006017
47
6
17
wherefore, come ye forth out of the midst of them, and be separated, saith the Lord, and an unclean thing do not touch, and I -- I will receive you,
field: 47006018
47
6
18
and I will be to you for a Father, and ye -- ye shall be to Me for sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.'
field: 47007001
47
7
1
Having, then, these promises, beloved, may we cleanse ourselves from every pollution of flesh and spirit, perfecting sanctification in the fear of God;
field: 47007002
47
7
2
receive us; no one did we wrong; no one did we waste; no one did we defraud;
field: 47007003
47
7
3
not to condemn you do I say `it', for I have said before that in our hearts ye are to die with and to live with;
field: 47007004
47
7
4
great `is' my freedom of speech unto you, great my glory on your behalf; I have been filled with the comfort, I overabound with the joy on all our tribulation,
field: 47007005
47
7
5
for also we, having come to Macedonia, no relaxation hath our flesh had, but on every side we are in tribulation, without `are' fightings, within -- fears;
field: 47007006
47
7
6
but He who is comforting the cast-down -- God -- He did comfort us in the presence of Titus;
field: 47007007
47
7
7
and not only in his presence, but also in the comfort with which he was comforted over you, declaring to us your longing desire, your lamentation, your zeal for me, so that the more I did rejoice,
field: 47007008
47
7
8
because even if I made you sorry in the letter, I do not repent -- if even I did repent -- for I perceive that the letter, even if for an hour, did make you sorry.
field: 47007009
47
7
9
I now do rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye were made sorry to reformation, for ye were made sorry toward God, that in nothing ye might receive damage from us;
field: 47007010
47
7
10
for the sorrow toward God reformation to salvation not to be repented of doth work, and the sorrow of the world doth work death,
field: 47007011
47
7
11
for, lo, this same thing -- your being made sorry toward God -- how much diligence it doth work in you! but defence, but displeasure, but fear, but longing desire, but zeal, but revenge; in every thing ye did approve yourselves to be pure in the matter.
field: 47007012
47
7
12
If, then, I also wrote to you -- not for his cause who did wrong, nor for his cause who did suffer wrong, but for our diligence in your behalf being manifested unto you before God --
field: 47007013
47
7
13
because of this we have been comforted in your comfort, and more abundantly the more did we rejoice in the joy of Titus, that his spirit hath been refreshed from you all;
field: 47007014
47
7
14
because if anything to him in your behalf I have boasted, I was not put to shame; but as all things in truth we did speak to you, so also our boasting before Titus became truth,
field: 47007015
47
7
15
and his tender affection is more abundantly toward you, remembering the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye did receive him;
field: 47007016
47
7
16
I rejoice, therefore, that in everything I have courage in you.
field: 47008001
47
8
1
And we make known to you, brethren, the grace of God, that hath been given in the assemblies of Macedonia,
field: 47008002
47
8
2
because in much trial of tribulation the abundance of their joy, and their deep poverty, did abound to the riches of their liberality;
field: 47008003
47
8
3
because, according to `their' power, I testify, and above `their' power, they were willing of themselves,
field: 47008004
47
8
4
with much entreaty calling on us to receive the favour and the fellowship of the ministration to the saints,
field: 47008005
47
8
5
and not according as we expected, but themselves they did give first to the Lord, and to us, through the will of God,
field: 47008006
47
8
6
so that we exhorted Titus, that, according as he did begin before, so also he may finish to you also this favour,
field: 47008007
47
8
7
but even as in every thing ye do abound, in faith, and word, and knowledge, and all diligence, and in your love to us, that also in this grace ye may abound;
field: 47008008
47
8
8
not according to command do I speak, but because of the diligence of others, and of your love proving the genuineness,
field: 47008009
47
8
9
for ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that because of you he became poor -- being rich, that ye by that poverty may become rich.
field: 47008010
47
8
10
and an opinion in this do I give: for this to you `is' expedient, who not only to do, but also to will, did begin before -- a year ago,
field: 47008011
47
8
11
and now also finish doing `it', that even as `there is' the readiness of the will, so also the finishing, out of that which ye have,
field: 47008012
47
8
12
for if the willing mind is present, according to that which any one may have it is well-accepted, not according to that which he hath not;
field: 47008013
47
8
13
for not that for others release, and ye pressured, `do I speak,'
field: 47008014
47
8
14
but by equality, at the present time your abundance -- for their want, that also their abundance may be for your want, that there may be equality,
field: 47008015
47
8
15
according as it hath been written, `He who `did gather' much, had nothing over; and he who `did gather' little, had no lack.'
field: 47008016
47
8
16
And thanks to God, who is putting the same diligence for you in the heart of Titus,
field: 47008017
47
8
17
because indeed the exhortation he accepted, and being more diligent, of his own accord he went forth unto you,
field: 47008018
47
8
18
and we sent with him the brother, whose praise in the good news `is' through all the assemblies,
field: 47008019
47
8
19
and not only so, but who was also appointed by vote by the assemblies, our fellow-traveller, with this favour that is ministered by us, unto the glory of the same Lord, and your willing mind;
field: 47008020
47
8
20
avoiding this, lest any one may blame us in this abundance that is ministered by us,
field: 47008021
47
8
21
providing right things, not only before the Lord, but also before men;
field: 47008022
47
8
22
and we sent with them our brother, whom we proved in many things many times being diligent, and now much more diligent, by the great confidence that is toward you,
field: 47008023
47
8
23
whether -- about Titus -- my partner and towards you fellow-worker, whether -- our brethren, apostles of assemblies -- glory of Christ;
field: 47008024
47
8
24
the shewing therefore of your love, and of our boasting on your behalf, to them shew ye, even in the face of the assemblies.
field: 47009001
47
9
1
For, indeed, concerning the ministration that `is' for the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you,
field: 47009002
47
9
2
for I have known your readiness of mind, which in your behalf I boast of to Macedonians, that Achaia hath been prepared a year ago, and the zeal of you did stir up the more part,
field: 47009003
47
9
3
and I sent the brethren, that our boasting on your behalf may not be made vain in this respect; that, according as I said, ye may be ready,
field: 47009004
47
9
4
lest if Macedonians may come with me, and find you unprepared, we -- we may be put to shame (that we say not -- ye) in this same confidence of boasting.
field: 47009005
47
9
5
Necessary, therefore, I thought `it' to exhort the brethren, that they may go before to you, and may make up before your formerly announced blessing, that this be ready, as a blessing, and not as covetousness.
field: 47009006
47
9
6
And this: He who is sowing sparingly, sparingly also shall reap; and he who is sowing in blessings, in blessings also shall reap;
field: 47009007
47
9
7
each one, according as he doth purpose in heart, not out of sorrow or out of necessity, for a cheerful giver doth God love,
field: 47009008
47
9
8
and God `is' able all grace to cause to abound to you, that in every thing always all sufficiency having, ye may abound to every good work,
field: 47009009
47
9
9
(according as it hath been written, `He dispersed abroad, he gave to the poor, his righteousness doth remain to the age,')
field: 47009010
47
9
10
and may He who is supplying seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness,
field: 47009011
47
9
11
in every thing being enriched to all liberality, which doth work through us thanksgiving to God,
field: 47009012
47
9
12
because the ministration of this service not only is supplying the wants of the saints, but is also abounding through many thanksgivings to God,
field: 47009013
47
9
13
through the proof of this ministration glorifying God for the subjection of your confession to the good news of the Christ, and `for' the liberality of the fellowship to them and to all,
field: 47009014
47
9
14
and by their supplication in your behalf, longing after you because of the exceeding grace of God upon you;
field: 47009015
47
9
15
thanks also to God for His unspeakable gift!
field: 47010001
47
10
1
And I, Paul, myself, do call upon you -- through the meekness and gentleness of the Christ -- who in presence, indeed `am' humble among you, and being absent, have courage toward you,
field: 47010002
47
10
2
and I beseech `you', that, being present, I may not have courage, with the confidence with which I reckon to be bold against certain reckoning us as walking according to the flesh;
field: 47010003
47
10
3
for walking in the flesh, not according to the flesh do we war,
field: 47010004
47
10
4
for the weapons of our warfare `are' not fleshly, but powerful to God for bringing down of strongholds,
field: 47010005
47
10
5
reasonings bringing down, and every high thing lifted up against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of the Christ,
field: 47010006
47
10
6
and being in readiness to avenge every disobedience, whenever your obedience may be fulfilled.
field: 47010007
47
10
7
The things in presence do ye see? if any one hath trusted in himself to be Christ's, this let him reckon again from himself, that according as he is Christ's, so also we `are' Christ's;
field: 47010008
47
10
8
for even if also anything more abundantly I shall boast concerning our authority, that the Lord gave us for building up, and not for casting you down, I shall not be ashamed;
field: 47010009
47
10
9
that I may not seem as if I would terrify you through the letters,
field: 47010010
47
10
10
`because the letters indeed -- saith one -- `are' weighty and strong, and the bodily presence weak, and the speech despicable.'
field: 47010011
47
10
11
This one -- let him reckon thus: that such as we are in word, through letters, being absent, such also, being present, `we are' in deed.
field: 47010012
47
10
12
For we do not make bold to rank or to compare ourselves with certain of those commending themselves, but they, among themselves measuring themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are not wise,
field: 47010013
47
10
13
and we in regard to the unmeasured things will not boast ourselves, but after the measure of the line that the God of measure did appoint to us -- to reach even unto you;
field: 47010014
47
10
14
for not as not reaching to you do we stretch ourselves overmuch, for even unto you did we come in the good news of the Christ,
field: 47010015
47
10
15
not boasting of the things not measured, in other men's labours, and having hope -- your faith increasing -- in you to be enlarged, according to our line -- into abundance,
field: 47010016
47
10
16
in the `places' beyond you to proclaim good news, not in another's line in regard to the things made ready, to boast;
field: 47010017
47
10
17
and he who is boasting -- in the Lord let him boast;
field: 47010018
47
10
18
for not he who is commending himself is approved, but he whom the Lord doth commend.
field: 47011001
47
11
1
O that ye were bearing with me a little of the folly, but ye also do bear with me:
field: 47011002
47
11
2
for I am zealous for you with zeal of God, for I did betroth you to one husband, a pure virgin, to present to Christ,
field: 47011003
47
11
3
and I fear, lest, as the serpent did beguile Eve in his subtilty, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that `is' in the Christ;
field: 47011004
47
11
4
for if, indeed, he who is coming doth preach another Jesus whom we did not preach, or another Spirit ye receive which ye did not receive, or other good news which ye did not accept -- well were ye bearing `it',
field: 47011005
47
11
5
for I reckon that I have been nothing behind the very chiefest apostles,
field: 47011006
47
11
6
and even if unlearned in word -- yet not in knowledge, but in every thing we were made manifest in all things to you.
field: 47011007
47
11
7
The sin did I do -- myself humbling that ye might be exalted, because freely the good news of God I did proclaim to you?
field: 47011008
47
11
8
other assemblies I did rob, having taken wages, for your ministration;
field: 47011009
47
11
9
and being present with you, and having been in want, I was chargeable to no one, for my lack did the brethren supply -- having come from Macedonia -- and in everything burdenless to you I did keep myself, and will keep.
field: 47011010
47
11
10
The truth of Christ is in me, because this boasting shall not be stopped in regard to me in the regions of Achaia;
field: 47011011
47
11
11
wherefore? because I do not love you? God hath known!
field: 47011012
47
11
12
and what I do, I also will do, that I may cut off the occasion of those wishing an occasion, that in that which they boast they may be found according as we also;
field: 47011013
47
11
13
for those such `are' false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ,
field: 47011014
47
11
14
and no wonder -- for even the Adversary doth transform himself into a messenger of light;
field: 47011015
47
11
15
no great thing, then, if also his ministrants do transform themselves as ministrants of righteousness -- whose end shall be according to their works.
field: 47011016
47
11
16
Again I say, may no one think me to be a fool; and if otherwise, even as a fool receive me, that I also a little may boast.
field: 47011017
47
11
17
That which I speak, I speak not according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this the confidence of boasting;
field: 47011018
47
11
18
since many boast according to the flesh, I also will boast:
field: 47011019
47
11
19
for gladly do ye bear with the fools -- being wise,
field: 47011020
47
11
20
for ye bear, if any one is bringing you under bondage, if any one doth devour, if any one doth take away, if any one doth exalt himself, if any one on the face doth smite you;
field: 47011021
47
11
21
in reference to dishonour I speak, how that we were weak, and in whatever any one is bold -- in foolishness I say `it' -- I also am bold.
field: 47011022
47
11
22
Hebrews are they? I also! Israelites are they? I also! seed of Abraham are they? I also!
field: 47011023
47
11
23
ministrants of Christ are they? -- as beside myself I speak -- I more; in labours more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths many times;
field: 47011024
47
11
24
from Jews five times forty `stripes' save one I did receive;
field: 47011025
47
11
25
thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice was I shipwrecked, a night and a day in the deep I have passed;
field: 47011026
47
11
26
journeyings many times, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from kindred, perils from nations, perils in city, perils in wilderness, perils in sea, perils among false brethren;
field: 47011027
47
11
27
in laboriousness and painfulness, in watchings many times, in hunger and thirst, in fastings many times, in cold and nakedness;
field: 47011028
47
11
28
apart from the things without -- the crowding upon me that is daily -- the care of all the assemblies.
field: 47011029
47
11
29
Who is infirm, and I am not infirm? who is stumbled, and I am not fired;
field: 47011030
47
11
30
if to boast it behoveth `me', of the things of my infirmity I will boast;
field: 47011031
47
11
31
the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ -- who is blessed to the ages -- hath known that I do not lie! --
field: 47011032
47
11
32
In Damascus the ethnarch of Aretas the king was watching the city of the Damascenes, wishing to seize me,
field: 47011033
47
11
33
and through a window in a rope basket I was let down, through the wall, and fled out of his hands.
field: 47012001
47
12
1
To boast, really, is not profitable for me, for I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
field: 47012002
47
12
2
I have known a man in Christ, fourteen years ago -- whether in the body I have not known, whether out of the body I have not known, God hath known -- such an one being caught away unto the third heaven;
field: 47012003
47
12
3
and I have known such a man -- whether in the body, whether out of the body, I have not known, God hath known, --
field: 47012004
47
12
4
that he was caught away to the paradise, and heard unutterable sayings, that it is not possible for man to speak.
field: 47012005
47
12
5
Of such an one I will boast, and of myself I will not boast, except in my infirmities,
field: 47012006
47
12
6
for if I may wish to boast, I shall not be a fool, for truth I will say; but I forebear, lest any one in regard to me may think anything above what he doth see me, or doth hear anything of me;
field: 47012007
47
12
7
and that by the exceeding greatness of the revelations I might not be exalted overmuch, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of the Adversary, that he might buffet me, that I might not be exalted overmuch.
field: 47012008
47
12
8
Concerning this thing thrice the Lord did I call upon, that it might depart from me,
field: 47012009
47
12
9
and He said to me, `Sufficient for thee is My grace, for My power in infirmity is perfected;' most gladly, therefore, will I rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of the Christ may rest on me:
field: 47012010
47
12
10
wherefore I am well pleased in infirmities, in damages, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses -- for Christ; for whenever I am infirm, then I am powerful;
field: 47012011
47
12
11
I have become a fool -- boasting; ye -- ye did compel me; for I ought by you to have been commended, for in nothing was I behind the very chiefest apostles -- even if I am nothing.
field: 47012012
47
12
12
The signs, indeed, of the apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds,
field: 47012013
47
12
13
for what is there in which ye were inferior to the rest of the assemblies, except that I myself was not a burden to you? forgive me this injustice!
field: 47012014
47
12
14
Lo, a third time I am ready to come unto you, and I will not be a burden to you, for I seek not yours, but you, for the children ought not for the parents to lay up, but the parents for the children,
field: 47012015
47
12
15
and I most gladly will spend and be entirely spent for your souls, even if, more abundantly loving you, less I am loved.
field: 47012016
47
12
16
And be it `so', I -- I did not burden you, but being crafty, with guile I did take you;
field: 47012017
47
12
17
any one of those whom I have sent unto you -- by him did I take advantage of you?
field: 47012018
47
12
18
I entreated Titus, and did send with `him' the brother; did Titus take advantage of you? in the same spirit did we not walk? -- did we not in the same steps?
field: 47012019
47
12
19
Again, think ye that to you we are making defence? before God in Christ do we speak; and the all things, beloved, `are' for your up-building,
field: 47012020
47
12
20
for I fear lest, having come, not such as I wish I may find you, and I -- I may be found by you such as ye do not wish, lest there be strifes, envyings, wraths, revelries, evil-speakings, whisperings, puffings up, insurrections,
field: 47012021
47
12
21
lest again having come, my God may humble me in regard to you, and I may bewail many of those having sinned before, and not having reformed concerning the uncleanness, and whoredom, and lasciviousness, that they did practise.
field: 47013001
47
13
1
This third time do I come unto you; on the mouth of two witnesses or three shall every saying be established;
field: 47013002
47
13
2
I have said before, and I say `it' before, as being present, the second time, and being absent, now, do I write to those having sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again, I will not spare,
field: 47013003
47
13
3
since a proof ye seek of the Christ speaking in me, who to you is not infirm, but is powerful in you,
field: 47013004
47
13
4
for even if he was crucified from infirmity, yet he doth live from the power of God; for we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him from the power of God toward you.
field: 47013005
47
13
5
Your ownselves try ye, if ye are in the faith; your ownselves prove ye; do ye not know your ownselves, that Jesus Christ is in you, if ye be not in some respect disapproved of?
field: 47013006
47
13
6
and I hope that ye shall know that we -- we are not disapproved of;
field: 47013007
47
13
7
and I pray before God that ye do no evil, not that we may appear approved, but that ye may do that which is right, and we may be as disapproved;
field: 47013008
47
13
8
for we are not able to do anything against the truth, but for the truth;
field: 47013009
47
13
9
for we rejoice when we may be infirm, and ye may be powerful; and this also we pray for -- your perfection!
field: 47013010
47
13
10
because of this, these things -- being absent -- I write, that being present, I may not treat `any' sharply, according to the authority that the Lord did give me for building up, and not for casting down.
field: 47013011
47
13
11
Henceforth, brethren, rejoice; be made perfect, be comforted, be of the same mind, be at peace, and the God of the love and peace shall be with you;
field: 47013012
47
13
12
salute one another in an holy kiss;
field: 47013013
47
13
13
salute you do all the saints;
field: 47013014
47
13
14
the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, `is' with you all! Amen.
field: 48001001
48
1
1
Paul, an apostle -- not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who did raise him out of the dead --
field: 48001002
48
1
2
and all the brethren with me, to the assemblies of Galatia:
field: 48001003
48
1
3
Grace to you, and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ,
field: 48001004
48
1
4
who did give himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of the present evil age, according to the will of God even our Father,
field: 48001005
48
1
5
to whom `is' the glory to the ages of the ages. Amen.
field: 48001006
48
1
6
I wonder that ye are so quickly removed from Him who did call you in the grace of Christ to another good news;
field: 48001007
48
1
7
that is not another, except there be certain who are troubling you, and wishing to pervert the good news of the Christ;
field: 48001008
48
1
8
but even if we or a messenger out of heaven may proclaim good news to you different from what we did proclaim to you -- anathema let him be!
field: 48001009
48
1
9
as we have said before, and now say again, If any one to you may proclaim good news different from what ye did receive -- anathema let him be!
field: 48001010
48
1
10
for now men do I persuade, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if yet men I did please -- Christ's servant I should not be.
field: 48001011
48
1
11
And I make known to you, brethren, the good news that were proclaimed by me, that it is not according to man,
field: 48001012
48
1
12
for neither did I from man receive it, nor was I taught `it', but through a revelation of Jesus Christ,
field: 48001013
48
1
13
for ye did hear of my behaviour once in Judaism, that exceedingly I was persecuting the assembly of God, and wasting it,
field: 48001014
48
1
14
and I was advancing in Judaism above many equals in age in mine own race, being more abundantly zealous of my fathers' deliverances,
field: 48001015
48
1
15
and when God was well pleased -- having separated me from the womb of my mother, and having called `me' through His grace --
field: 48001016
48
1
16
to reveal His Son in me, that I might proclaim him good news among the nations, immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood,
field: 48001017
48
1
17
nor did I go up to Jerusalem unto those who were apostles before me, but I went away to Arabia, and again returned to Damascus,
field: 48001018
48
1
18
then, after three years I went up to Jerusalem to enquire about Peter, and remained with him fifteen days,
field: 48001019
48
1
19
and other of the apostles I did not see, except James, the brother of the Lord.
field: 48001020
48
1
20
And the things that I write to you, lo, before God -- I lie not;
field: 48001021
48
1
21
then I came to the regions of Syria and of Cilicia,
field: 48001022
48
1
22
and was unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea, that `are' in Christ,
field: 48001023
48
1
23
and only they were hearing, that `he who is persecuting us then, doth now proclaim good news -- the faith that then he was wasting;'
field: 48001024
48
1
24
and they were glorifying God in me.
field: 48002001
48
2
1
Then, after fourteen years again I went up to Jerusalem with Barnabas, having taken with me also Titus;
field: 48002002
48
2
2
and I went up by revelation, and did submit to them the good news that I preach among the nations, and privately to those esteemed, lest in vain I might run or did run;
field: 48002003
48
2
3
but not even Titus, who `is' with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised --
field: 48002004
48
2
4
and `that' because of the false brethren brought in unawares, who did come in privily to spy out our liberty that we have in Christ Jesus, that us they might bring under bondage,
field: 48002005
48
2
5
to whom not even for an hour we gave place by subjection, that the truth of the good news might remain to you.
field: 48002006
48
2
6
And from those who were esteemed to be something -- whatever they were then, it maketh no difference to me -- the face of man God accepteth not, for -- to me those esteemed did add nothing,
field: 48002007
48
2
7
but, on the contrary, having seen that I have been entrusted with the good news of the uncircumcision, as Peter with `that' of the circumcision,
field: 48002008
48
2
8
for He who did work with Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, did work also in me in regard to the nations,
field: 48002009
48
2
9
and having known the grace that was given to me, James, and Cephas, and John, who were esteemed to be pillars, a right hand of fellowship they did give to me, and to Barnabas, that we to the nations, and they to the circumcision `may go',
field: 48002010
48
2
10
only, of the poor that we should be mindful, which also I was diligent -- this very thing -- to do.
field: 48002011
48
2
11
And when Peter came to Antioch, to the face I stood up against him, because he was blameworthy,
field: 48002012
48
2
12
for before the coming of certain from James, with the nations he was eating, and when they came, he was withdrawing and separating himself, fearing those of the circumcision,
field: 48002013
48
2
13
and dissemble with him also did the other Jews, so that also Barnabas was carried away by their dissimulation.
field: 48002014
48
2
14
But when I saw that they are not walking uprightly to the truth of the good news, I said to Peter before all, `If thou, being a Jew, in the manner of the nations dost live, and not in the manner of the Jews, how the nations dost thou compel to Judaize?
field: 48002015
48
2
15
we by nature Jews, and not sinners of the nations,
field: 48002016
48
2
16
having known also that a man is not declared righteous by works of law, if not through the faith of Jesus Christ, also we in Christ Jesus did believe, that we might be declared righteous by the faith of Christ, and not by works of law, wherefore declared righteous by works of law shall be no flesh.'
field: 48002017
48
2
17
And if, seeking to be declared righteous in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, `is' then Christ a ministrant of sin? let it not be!
field: 48002018
48
2
18
for if the things I threw down, these again I build up, a transgressor I set myself forth;
field: 48002019
48
2
19
for I through law, did die, that to God I may live;
field: 48002020
48
2
20
with Christ I have been crucified, and live no more do I, and Christ doth live in me; and that which I now live in the flesh -- in the faith I live of the Son of God, who did love me and did give himself for me;
field: 48002021
48
2
21
I do not make void the grace of God, for if righteousness `be' through law -- then Christ died in vain.
field: 48003001
48
3
1
O thoughtless Galatians, who did bewitch you, not to obey the truth -- before whose eyes Jesus Christ was described before among you crucified?
field: 48003002
48
3
2
this only do I wish to learn from you -- by works of law the Spirit did ye receive, or by the hearing of faith?
field: 48003003
48
3
3
so thoughtless are ye! having begun in the Spirit, now in the flesh do ye end?
field: 48003004
48
3
4
so many things did ye suffer in vain! if, indeed, even in vain.
field: 48003005
48
3
5
He, therefore, who is supplying to you the Spirit, and working mighty acts among you -- by works of law or by the hearing of faith `is it'?
field: 48003006
48
3
6
according as Abraham did believe God, and it was reckoned to him -- to righteousness;
field: 48003007
48
3
7
know ye, then, that those of faith -- these are sons of Abraham,
field: 48003008
48
3
8
and the Writing having foreseen that by faith God doth declare righteous the nations did proclaim before the good news to Abraham --
field: 48003009
48
3
9
`Blessed in thee shall be all the nations;' so that those of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham,
field: 48003010
48
3
10
for as many as are of works of law are under a curse, for it hath been written, `Cursed `is' every one who is not remaining in all things that have been written in the Book of the Law -- to do them,'
field: 48003011
48
3
11
and that in law no one is declared righteous with God, is evident, because `The righteous by faith shall live;'
field: 48003012
48
3
12
and the law is not by faith, but -- `The man who did them shall live in them.'
field: 48003013
48
3
13
Christ did redeem us from the curse of the law, having become for us a curse, for it hath been written, `Cursed is every one who is hanging on a tree,'
field: 48003014
48
3
14
that to the nations the blessing of Abraham may come in Christ Jesus, that the promise of the Spirit we may receive through the faith.
field: 48003015
48
3
15
Brethren, as a man I say `it', even of man a confirmed covenant no one doth make void or doth add to,
field: 48003016
48
3
16
and to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed; He doth not say, `And to seeds,' as of many, but as of one, `And to thy seed,' which is Christ;
field: 48003017
48
3
17
and this I say, A covenant confirmed before by God to Christ, the law, that came four hundred and thirty years after, doth not set aside, to make void the promise,
field: 48003018
48
3
18
for if by law `be' the inheritance, `it is' no more by promise, but to Abraham through promise did God grant `it'.
field: 48003019
48
3
19
Why, then, the law? on account of the transgressions it was added, till the seed might come to which the promise hath been made, having been set in order through messengers in the hand of a mediator --
field: 48003020
48
3
20
and the mediator is not of one, and God is one --
field: 48003021
48

21
the law, then, `is' against the promises of God? -- let it not be! for if a law was given that was able to make alive, truly by law there would have been the righteousness,
field: 48003022
48
3
22
but the Writing did shut up the whole under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ may be given to those believing.
field: 48003023
48
3
23
And before the coming of the faith, under law we were being kept, shut up to the faith about to be revealed,
field: 48003024
48
3
24
so that the law became our child-conductor -- to Christ, that by faith we may be declared righteous,
field: 48003025
48
3
25
and the faith having come, no more under a child-conductor are we,
field: 48003026
48
3
26
for ye are all sons of God through the faith in Christ Jesus,
field: 48003027
48
3
27
for as many as to Christ were baptized did put on Christ;
field: 48003028
48
3
28
there is not here Jew or Greek, there is not here servant nor freeman, there is not here male and female, for all ye are one in Christ Jesus;
field: 48003029
48
3
29
and if ye `are' of Christ then of Abraham ye are seed, and according to promise -- heirs.
field: 48004001
48
4
1
And I say, so long time as the heir is a babe, he differeth nothing from a servant -- being lord of all,
field: 48004002
48
4
2
but is under tutors and stewards till the time appointed of the father,
field: 48004003
48
4
3
so also we, when we were babes, under the elements of the world were in servitude,
field: 48004004
48
4
4
and when the fulness of time did come, God sent forth His Son, come of a woman, come under law,
field: 48004005
48
4
5
that those under law he may redeem, that the adoption of sons we may receive;
field: 48004006
48
4
6
and because ye are sons, God did send forth the spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, `Abba, Father!'
field: 48004007
48
4
7
so that thou art no more a servant, but a son, and if a son, also an heir of God through Christ.
field: 48004008
48
4
8
But then, indeed, not having known God, ye were in servitude to those not by nature gods,
field: 48004009
48
4
9
and now, having known God -- and rather being known by God -- how turn ye again unto the weak and poor elements to which anew ye desire to be in servitude?
field: 48004010
48
4
10
days ye observe, and months, and times, and years!
field: 48004011
48
4
11
I am afraid of you, lest in vain I did labour toward you.
field: 48004012
48
4
12
Become as I `am' -- because I also `am' as ye brethren, I beseech you; to me ye did no hurt,
field: 48004013
48
4
13
and ye have known that through infirmity of the flesh I did proclaim good news to you at the first,
field: 48004014
48
4
14
and my trial that `is' in my flesh ye did not despise nor reject, but as a messenger of God ye did receive me -- as Christ Jesus;
field: 48004015
48
4
15
what then was your happiness? for I testify to you, that if possible, your eyes having plucked out, ye would have given to me;
field: 48004016
48
4
16
so that your enemy have I become, being true to you?
field: 48004017
48
4
17
they are zealous for you -- `yet' not well, but they wish to shut us out, that for them ye may be zealous;
field: 48004018
48
4
18
and `it is' good to be zealously regarded, in what is good, at all times, and not only in my being present with you;
field: 48004019
48
4
19
my little children, of whom again I travail in birth, till Christ may be formed in you,
field: 48004020
48
4
20
and I was wishing to be present with you now, and to change my voice, because I am in doubt about you.
field: 48004021
48
4
21
Tell me, ye who are willing to be under law, the law do ye not hear?
field: 48004022
48
4
22
for it hath been written, that Abraham had two sons, one by the maid-servant, and one by the free-woman,
field: 48004023
48
4
23
but he who `is' of the maid-servant, according to flesh hath been, and he who `is' of the free-woman, through the promise;
field: 48004024
48
4
24
which things are allegorized, for these are the two covenants: one, indeed, from mount Sinai, to servitude bringing forth, which is Hagar;
field: 48004025
48
4
25
for this Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and doth correspond to the Jerusalem that now `is', and is in servitude with her children,
field: 48004026
48
4
26
and the Jerusalem above is the free-woman, which is mother of us all,
field: 48004027
48
4
27
for it hath been written, `Rejoice, O barren, who art not bearing; break forth and cry, thou who art not travailing, because many `are' the children of the desolate -- more than of her having the husband.'
field: 48004028
48
4
28
And we, brethren, as Isaac, are children of promise,
field: 48004029
48
4
29
but as then he who was born according to the flesh did persecute him according to the spirit, so also now;
field: 48004030
48
4
30
but what saith the Writing? `Cast forth the maid-servant and her son, for the son of the maid-servant may not be heir with the son of the free-woman;'
field: 48004031
48
4
31
then, brethren, we are not a maid-servant's children, but the free-woman's.
field: 48005001
48
5
1
In the freedom, then, with which Christ did make you free -- stand ye, and be not held fast again by a yoke of servitude;
field: 48005002
48
5
2
lo, I Paul do say to you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing;
field: 48005003
48
5
3
and I testify again to every man circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law;
field: 48005004
48
5
4
ye were freed from the Christ, ye who in law are declared righteous; from the grace ye fell away;
field: 48005005
48
5
5
for we by the Spirit, by faith, a hope of righteousness do wait for,
field: 48005006
48
5
6
for in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision, but faith through love working.
field: 48005007
48
5
7
Ye were running well; who did hinder you -- not to obey the truth?
field: 48005008
48
5
8
the obedience `is' not of him who is calling you!
field: 48005009
48
5
9
a little leaven the whole lump doth leaven;
field: 48005010
48
5
10
I have confidence in regard to you in the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded; and he who is troubling you shall bear the judgment, whoever he may be.
field: 48005011
48
5
11
And I, brethren, if uncircumcision I yet preach, why yet am I persecuted? then hath the stumbling-block of the cross been done away;
field: 48005012
48
5
12
O that even they would cut themselves off who are unsettling you!
field: 48005013
48
5
13
For ye -- to freedom ye were called, brethren, only not the freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through the love serve ye one another,
field: 48005014
48
5
14
for all the law in one word is fulfilled -- in this: `Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself;'
field: 48005015
48
5
15
and if one another ye do bite and devour, see -- that ye may not by one another be consumed.
field: 48005016
48
5
16
And I say: In the Spirit walk ye, and the desire of the flesh ye may not complete;
field: 48005017
48
5
17
for the flesh doth desire contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit contrary to the flesh, and these are opposed one to another, that the things that ye may will -- these ye may not do;
field: 48005018
48
5
18
and if by the Spirit ye are led, ye are not under law.
field: 48005019
48
5
19
And manifest also are the works of the flesh, which are: Adultery, whoredom, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
field: 48005020
48
5
20
idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, strifes, emulations, wraths, rivalries, dissensions, sects,
field: 48005021
48
5
21
envyings, murders, drunkennesses, revellings, and such like, of which I tell you before, as I also said before, that those doing such things the reign of God shall not inherit.
field: 48005022
48
5
22
And the fruit of the Spirit is: Love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith,
field: 48005023
48
5
23
meekness, temperance: against such there is no law;
field: 48005024
48
5
24
and those who are Christ's, the flesh did crucify with the affections, and the desires;
field: 48005025
48
5
25
if we may live in the Spirit, in the Spirit also we may walk;
field: 48005026
48
5
26
let us not become vain-glorious -- one another provoking, one another envying!
field: 48006001
48
6
1
Brethren, if a man also may be overtaken in any trespass, ye who `are' spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of meekness, considering thyself -- lest thou also may be tempted;
field: 48006002
48
6
2
of one another the burdens bear ye, and so fill up the law of the Christ,
field: 48006003
48
6
3
for if any one doth think `himself' to be something -- being nothing -- himself he doth deceive;
field: 48006004
48
6
4
and his own work let each one prove, and then in regard to himself alone the glorying he shall have, and not in regard to the other,
field: 48006005
48
6
5
for each one his own burden shall bear.
field: 48006006
48
6
6
And let him who is instructed in the word share with him who is instructing -- in all good things.
field: 48006007
48
6
7
Be not led astray; God is not mocked; for what a man may sow -- that also he shall reap,
field: 48006008
48
6
8
because he who is sowing to his own flesh, of the flesh shall reap corruption; and he who is sowing to the Spirit, of the Spirit shall reap life age-during;
field: 48006009
48
6
9
and in the doing good we may not be faint-hearted, for at the proper time we shall reap -- not desponding;
field: 48006010
48
6
10
therefore, then, as we have opportunity, may we work the good to all, and especially unto those of the household of the faith.
field: 48006011
48
6
11
Ye see in how large letters I have written to you with my own hand;
field: 48006012
48
6
12
as many as are willing to make a good appearance in the flesh, these constrain you to be circumcised -- only that for the cross of the Christ they may not be persecuted,
field: 48006013
48
6
13
for neither do those circumcised themselves keep the law, but they wish you to be circumcised, that in your flesh they may glory.
field: 48006014
48
6
14
And for me, let it not be -- to glory, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which to me the world hath been crucified, and I to the world;
field: 48006015
48
6
15
for in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation;
field: 48006016
48
6
16
and as many as by this rule do walk -- peace upon them, and kindness, and on the Israel of God!
field: 48006017
48
6
17
Henceforth, let no one give me trouble, for I the scars of the Lord Jesus in my body do bear.
field: 48006018
48
6
18
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ `is' with your spirit, brethren! Amen.
field: 49001001
49

1
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, to the saints who are in Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:
field: 49001002
49
1
2
Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!
field: 49001003
49
1
3
Blessed `is' the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who did bless us in every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,
field: 49001004
49
1
4
according as He did choose us in him before the foundation of the world, for our being holy and unblemished before Him, in love,
field: 49001005
49
1
5
having foreordained us to the adoption of sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,
field: 49001006
49
1
6
to the praise of the glory of His grace, in which He did make us accepted in the beloved,
field: 49001007
49
1
7
in whom we have the redemption through his blood, the remission of the trespasses, according to the riches of His grace,
field: 49001008
49
1
8
in which He did abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,
field: 49001009
49
1
9
having made known to us the secret of His will, according to His good pleasure, that He purposed in Himself,
field: 49001010
49
1
10
in regard to the dispensation of the fulness of the times, to bring into one the whole in the Christ, both the things in the heavens, and the things upon the earth -- in him;
field: 49001011
49
1
11
in whom also we did obtain an inheritance, being foreordained according to the purpose of Him who the all things is working according to the counsel of His will,
field: 49001012
49
1
12
for our being to the praise of His glory, `even' those who did first hope in the Christ,
field: 49001013
49
1
13
in whom ye also, having heard the word of the truth -- the good news of your salvation -- in whom also having believed, ye were sealed with the Holy Spirit of the promise,
field: 49001014
49
1
14
which is an earnest of our inheritance, to the redemption of the acquired possession, to the praise of His glory.
field: 49001015
49
1
15
Because of this I also, having heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and the love to all the saints,
field: 49001016
49
1
16
do not cease giving thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,
field: 49001017
49
1
17
that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of the glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the recognition of him,
field: 49001018
49
1
18
the eyes of your understanding being enlightened, for your knowing what is the hope of His calling, and what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
field: 49001019
49
1
19
and what the exceeding greatness of His power to us who are believing, according to the working of the power of His might,
field: 49001020
49
1
20
which He wrought in the Christ, having raised him out of the dead, and did set `him' at His right hand in the heavenly `places',
field: 49001021
49
1
21
far above all principality, and authority, and might, and lordship, and every name named, not only in this age, but also in the coming one;
field: 49001022
49
1
22
and all things He did put under his feet, and did give him -- head over all things to the assembly,
field: 49001023
49
1
23
which is his body, the fulness of Him who is filling the all in all,
field: 49002001
49
2
1
Also you -- being dead in the trespasses and the sins,
field: 49002002
49
2
2
in which once ye did walk according to the age of this world, according to the ruler of the authority of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience,
field: 49002003
49
2
3
among whom also we all did walk once in the desires of our flesh, doing the wishes of the flesh and of the thoughts, and were by nature children of wrath -- as also the others,
field: 49002004
49
2
4
and God, being rich in kindness, because of His great love with which He loved us,
field: 49002005
49
2
5
even being dead in the trespasses, did make us to live together with the Christ, (by grace ye are having been saved,)
field: 49002006
49
2
6
and did raise `us' up together, and did seat `us' together in the heavenly `places' in Christ Jesus,
field: 49002007
49
2
7
that He might show, in the ages that are coming, the exceeding riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus,
field: 49002008
49
2
8
for by grace ye are having been saved, through faith, and this not of you -- of God the gift,
field: 49002009
49
2
9
not of works, that no one may boast;
field: 49002010
49
2
10
for of Him we are workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God did before prepare, that in them we may walk.
field: 49002011
49
2
11
Wherefore, remember, that ye `were' once the nations in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that called Circumcision in the flesh made by hands,
field: 49002012
49
2
12
that ye were at that time apart from Christ, having been alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of the promise, having no hope, and without God, in the world;
field: 49002013
49
2
13
and now, in Christ Jesus, ye being once afar off became nigh in the blood of the Christ,
field: 49002014
49
2
14
for he is our peace, who did make both one, and the middle wall of the enclosure did break down,
field: 49002015
49
2
15
the enmity in his flesh, the law of the commands in ordinances having done away, that the two he might create in himself into one new man, making peace,
field: 49002016
49
2
16
and might reconcile both in one body to God through the cross, having slain the enmity in it,
field: 49002017
49
2
17
and having come, he did proclaim good news -- peace to you -- the far-off and the nigh,
field: 49002018
49
2
18
because through him we have the access -- we both -- in one Spirit unto the Father.
field: 49002019
49
2
19
Then, therefore, ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow-citizens of the saints, and of the household of God,
field: 49002020
49
2
20
being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being chief corner-`stone',
field: 49002021
49
2
21
in whom all the building fitly framed together doth increase to an holy sanctuary in the Lord,
field: 49002022
49
2
22
in whom also ye are builded together, for a habitation of God in the Spirit.
field: 49003001
49
3
1
For this cause, I Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you the nations,
field: 49003002
49
3
2
if, indeed, ye did hear of the dispensation of the grace of God that was given to me in regard to you,
field: 49003003
49
3
3
that by revelation He made known to me the secret, according as I wrote before in few `words' --
field: 49003004
49
3
4
in regard to which ye are able, reading `it', to understand my knowledge in the secret of the Christ,
field: 49003005
49
3
5
which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it was now revealed to His holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit --
field: 49003006
49
3
6
that the nations be fellow-heirs, and of the same body, and partakers of His promise in the Christ, through the good news,
field: 49003007
49
3
7
of which I became a ministrant, according to the gift of the grace of God that was given to me, according to the working of His power;
field: 49003008
49
3
8
to me -- the less than the least of all the saints -- was given this grace, among the nations to proclaim good news -- the untraceable riches of the Christ,
field: 49003009
49
3
9
and to cause all to see what `is' the fellowship of the secret that hath been hid from the ages in God, who the all things did create by Jesus Christ,
field: 49003010
49
3
10
that there might be made known now to the principalities and the authorities in the heavenly `places', through the assembly, the manifold wisdom of God,
field: 49003011
49
3
11
according to a purpose of the ages, which He made in Christ Jesus our Lord,
field: 49003012
49
3
12
in whom we have the freedom and the access in confidence through the faith of him,
field: 49003013
49
3
13
wherefore, I ask `you' not to faint in my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
field: 49003014
49
3
14
For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
field: 49003015
49
3
15
of whom the whole family in the heavens and on earth is named,
field: 49003016
49
3
16
that He may give to you, according to the riches of His glory, with might to be strengthened through His Spirit, in regard to the inner man,
field: 49003017
49
3
17
that the Christ may dwell through the faith in your hearts, in love having been rooted and founded,
field: 49003018
49
3
18
that ye may be in strength to comprehend, with all the saints, what `is' the breadth, and length, and depth, and height,
field: 49003019
49
3
19
to know also the love of the Christ that is exceeding the knowledge, that ye may be filled -- to all the fulness of God;
field: 49003020
49
3
20
and to Him who is able above all things to do exceeding abundantly what we ask or think, according to the power that is working in us,
field: 49003021
49
3
21
to Him `is' the glory in the assembly in Christ Jesus, to all the generations of the age of the ages. Amen.
field: 49004001
49
4
1
Call upon you, then, do I -- the prisoner of the Lord -- to walk worthily of the calling with which ye were called,
field: 49004002
49
4
2
with all lowliness and meekness, with long-suffering, forbearing one another in love,
field: 49004003
49
4
3
being diligent to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of the peace;
field: 49004004
49
4
4
one body and one Spirit, according as also ye were called in one hope of your calling;
field: 49004005
49
4
5
one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
field: 49004006
49
4
6
one God and Father of all, who `is' over all, and through all, and in you all,
field: 49004007
49
4
7
and to each one of you was given the grace, according to the measure of the gift of Christ,
field: 49004008
49
4
8
wherefore, he saith, `Having gone up on high he led captive captivity, and gave gifts to men,' --
field: 49004009
49
4
9
and that, he went up, what is it except that he also went down first to the lower parts of the earth?
field: 49004010
49
4
10
he who went down is the same also who went up far above all the heavens, that He may fill all things --
field: 49004011
49
4
11
and He gave some `as' apostles, and some `as' prophets, and some `as' proclaimers of good news, and some `as' shepherds and teachers,
field: 49004012
49
4
12
unto the perfecting of the saints, for a work of ministration, for a building up of the body of the Christ,
field: 49004013
49
4
13
till we may all come to the unity of the faith and of the recognition of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to a measure of stature of the fulness of the Christ,
field: 49004014
49
4
14
that we may no more be babes, tossed and borne about by every wind of the teaching, in the sleight of men, in craftiness, unto the artifice of leading astray,
field: 49004015
49
4
15
and, being true in love, we may increase to Him `in' all things, who is the head -- the Christ;
field: 49004016
49
4
16
from whom the whole body, being fitly joined together and united, through the supply of every joint, according to the working in the measure of each single part, the increase of the body doth make for the building up of itself in love.
field: 49004017
49
4
17
This, then, I say, and I testify in the Lord; ye are no more to walk, as also the other nations walk, in the vanity of their mind,
field: 49004018
49
4
18
being darkened in the understanding, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their heart,
field: 49004019
49
4
19
who, having ceased to feel, themselves did give up to the lasciviousness, for the working of all uncleanness in greediness;
field: 49004020
49
4
20
and ye did not so learn the Christ,
field: 49004021
49
4
21
if so be ye did hear him, and in him were taught, as truth is in Jesus;
field: 49004022
49
4
22
ye are to put off concerning the former behaviour the old man, that is corrupt according to the desires of the deceit,
field: 49004023
49
4
23
and to be renewed in the spirit of your mind,
field: 49004024
49
4
24
and to put on the new man, which, according to God, was created in righteousness and kindness of the truth.
field: 49004025
49
4
25
Wherefore, putting away the lying, speak truth each with his neighbour, because we are members one of another;
field: 49004026
49
4
26
be angry and do not sin; let not the sun go down upon your wrath,
field: 49004027
49
4
27
neither give place to the devil;
field: 49004028
49
4
28
whoso is stealing let him no more steal, but rather let him labour, working the thing that is good with the hands, that he may have to impart to him having need.
field: 49004029
49
4
29
Let no corrupt word out of your mouth go forth, but what is good unto the needful building up, that it may give grace to the hearers;
field: 49004030
49
4
30
and make not sorrowful the Holy Spirit of God, in which ye were sealed to a day of redemption.
field: 49004031
49
4
31
Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil-speaking, be put away from you, with all malice,
field: 49004032
49
4
32
and become one to another kind, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, according as also God in Christ did forgive you.
field: 49005001
49
5
1
Become, then, followers of God, as children beloved,
field: 49005002
49
5
2
and walk in love, as also the Christ did love us, and did give himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odour of a sweet smell,
field: 49005003
49
5
3
and whoredom, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becometh saints;
field: 49005004
49
5
4
also filthiness, and foolish talking, or jesting, -- the things not fit -- but rather thanksgiving;
field: 49005005
49
5
5
for this ye know, that every whoremonger, or unclean, or covetous person, who is an idolater, hath no inheritance in the reign of the Christ and God.
field: 49005006
49
5
6
Let no one deceive you with vain words, for because of these things cometh the anger of God upon the sons of the disobedience,
field: 49005007
49
5
7
become not, then, partakers with them,
field: 49005008
49
5
8
for ye were once darkness, and now light in the Lord; as children of light walk ye,
field: 49005009
49
5
9
for the fruit of the Spirit `is' in all goodness, and righteousness, and truth,
field: 49005010
49
5
10
proving what is well-pleasing to the Lord,
field: 49005011
49
5
11
and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of the darkness and rather even convict,
field: 49005012
49
5
12
for the things in secret done by them it is a shame even to speak of,
field: 49005013
49
5
13
and all the things reproved by the light are manifested, for everything that is manifested is light;
field: 49005014
49
5
14
wherefore he saith, `Arouse thyself, thou who art sleeping, and arise out of the dead, and the Christ shall shine upon thee.'
field: 49005015
49
5
15
See, then, how exactly ye walk, not as unwise, but as wise,
field: 49005016
49
5
16
redeeming the time, because the days are evil;
field: 49005017
49
5
17
because of this become not fools, but -- understanding what `is' the will of the Lord,
field: 49005018
49
5
18
and be not drunk with wine, in which is dissoluteness, but be filled in the Spirit,
field: 49005019
49
5
19
speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,
field: 49005020
49
5
20
giving thanks always for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to the God and Father;
field: 49005021
49
5
21
subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of God.
field: 49005022
49
5
22
The wives! to your own husbands subject yourselves, as to the Lord,
field: 49005023
49
5
23
because the husband is head of the wife, as also the Christ `is' head of the assembly, and he is saviour of the body,
field: 49005024
49
5
24
but even as the assembly is subject to Christ, so also `are' the wives to their own husbands in everything.
field: 49005025
49
5
25
The husbands! love your own wives, as also the Christ did love the assembly, and did give himself for it,
field: 49005026
49
5
26
that he might sanctify it, having cleansed `it' with the bathing of the water in the saying,
field: 49005027
49
5
27
that he might present it to himself the assembly in glory, not having spot or wrinkle, or any of such things, but that it may be holy and unblemished;
field: 49005028
49
5
28
so ought the husbands to love their own wives as their own bodies: he who is loving his own wife -- himself he doth love;
field: 49005029
49
5
29
for no one ever his own flesh did hate, but doth nourish and cherish it, as also the Lord -- the assembly,
field: 49005030
49
5
30
because members we are of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones;
field: 49005031
49
5
31
`for this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife, and they shall be -- the two -- for one flesh;'
field: 49005032
49
5
32
this secret is great, and I speak in regard to Christ and to the assembly;
field: 49005033
49
5
33
but ye also, every one in particular -- let each his own wife so love as himself, and the wife -- that she may reverence the husband.
field: 49006001
49
6
1
The children! obey your parents in the Lord, for this is righteous;
field: 49006002
49
6
2
honour thy father and mother,
field: 49006003
49
6
3
which is the first command with a promise, `That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live a long time upon the land.'
field: 49006004
49
6
4
And the fathers! provoke not your children, but nourish them in the instruction and admonition of the Lord.
field: 49006005
49
6
5
The servants! obey the masters according to the flesh with fear and trembling, in the simplicity of your heart, as to the Christ;
field: 49006006
49
6
6
not with eye-service as men-pleasers, but as servants of the Christ, doing the will of God out of soul,
field: 49006007
49
6
7
with good-will serving, as to the Lord, and not to men,
field: 49006008
49
6
8
having known that whatever good thing each one may do, this he shall receive from the Lord, whether servant or freeman.
field: 49006009
49
6
9
And the masters! the same things do ye unto them, letting threatening alone, having known that also your Master is in the heavens, and acceptance of persons is not with him.
field: 49006010
49
6
10
As to the rest, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might;
field: 49006011
49
6
11
put on the whole armour of God, for your being able to stand against the wiles of the devil,
field: 49006012
49
6
12
because we have not the wrestling with blood and flesh, but with the principalities, with the authorities, with the world-rulers of the darkness of this age, with the spiritual things of the evil in the heavenly places;
field: 49006013
49
6
13
because of this take ye up the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to resist in the day of the evil, and all things having done -- to stand.
field: 49006014
49
6
14
Stand, therefore, having your loins girt about in truth, and having put on the breastplate of the righteousness,
field: 49006015
49
6
15
and having the feet shod in the preparation of the good-news of the peace;
field: 49006016
49
6
16
above all, having taken up the shield of the faith, in which ye shall be able all the fiery darts of the evil one to quench,
field: 49006017
49
6
17
and the helmet of the salvation receive, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the saying of God,
field: 49006018
49
6
18
through all prayer and supplication praying at all times in the Spirit, and in regard to this same, watching in all perseverance and supplication for all the saints --
field: 49006019
49
6
19
and in behalf of me, that to me may be given a word in the opening of my mouth, in freedom, to make known the secret of the good news,
field: 49006020
49
6
20
for which I am an ambassador in a chain, that in it I may speak freely -- as it behoveth me to speak.
field: 49006021
49
6
21
And that ye may know -- ye also -- the things concerning me -- what I do, all things make known to you shall Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful ministrant in the Lord,
field: 49006022
49
6
22
whom I did send unto you for this very thing, that ye might know the things concerning us, and that he might comfort your hearts.
field: 49006023
49
6
23
Peace to the brethren, and love, with faith, from God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!
field: 49006024
49
6
24
The grace with all those loving our Lord Jesus Christ -- undecayingly! Amen.
field: 50001001
50
1
1
Paul and Timotheus, servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with overseers and ministrants;
field: 50001002
50
1
2
Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
field: 50001003
50
1
3
I give thanks to my God upon all the remembrance of you,
field: 50001004
50
1
4
always, in every supplication of mine for you all, with joy making the supplication,
field: 50001005
50
1
5
for your contribution to the good news from the first day till now,
field: 50001006
50
1
6
having been confident of this very thing, that He who did begin in you a good work, will perform `it' till a day of Jesus Christ,
field: 50001007
50
1
7
according as it is righteous for me to think this in behalf of you all, because of my having you in the heart, both in my bonds, and `in' the defence and confirmation of the good news, all of you being fellow-partakers with me of grace.
field: 50001008
50
1
8
For God is my witness, how I long for you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ,
field: 50001009
50
1
9
and this I pray, that your love yet more and more may abound in full knowledge, and all judgment,
field: 50001010
50
1
10
for your proving the things that differ, that ye may be pure and offenceless -- to a day of Christ,
field: 50001011
50
1
11
being filled with the fruit of righteousness, that `is' through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
field: 50001012
50
1
12
And I wish you to know, brethren, that the things concerning me, rather to an advancement of the good news have come,
field: 50001013
50
1
13
so that my bonds have become manifest in Christ in the whole praetorium, and to the other places -- all,
field: 50001014
50
1
14
and the greater part of the brethren in the Lord, having confidence by my bonds, are more abundantly bold -- fearlessly to speak the word.
field: 50001015
50
1
15
Certain, indeed, even through envy and contention, and certain also through good-will, do preach the Christ;
field: 50001016
50
1
16
the one, indeed, of rivalry the Christ do proclaim, not purely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds,
field: 50001017
50
1
17
and the other out of love, having known that for defence of the good news I am set:
field: 50001018
50
1
18
what then? in every way, whether in pretence or in truth, Christ is proclaimed -- and in this I rejoice, yea, and shall rejoice.
field: 50001019
50
1
19
For I have known that this shall fall out to me for salvation, through your supplication, and the supply of the Spirit of Christ Jesus,
field: 50001020
50
1
20
according to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, and in all freedom, as always, also now Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether through life or through death,
field: 50001021
50
1
21
for to me to live `is' Christ, and to die gain.
field: 50001022
50
1
22
And if to live in the flesh `is' to me a fruit of work, then what shall I choose? I know not;
field: 50001023
50
1
23
for I am pressed by the two, having the desire to depart, and to be with Christ, for it is far better,
field: 50001024
50
1
24
and to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account,
field: 50001025
50
1
25
and of this being persuaded, I have known that I shall remain and continue with you all, to your advancement and joy of the faith,
field: 50001026
50
1
26
that your boasting may abound in Christ Jesus in me through my presence again to you.
field: 50001027
50
1
27
Only worthily of the good news of the Christ conduct ye yourselves, that, whether having come and seen you, whether being absent I may hear of the things concerning you, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one soul, striving together for the faith of the good news,
field: 50001028
50
1
28
and not terrified in anything by those opposing, which to them indeed is a token of destruction, and to you of salvation, and that from God;
field: 50001029
50
1
29
because to you it was granted, on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in him, but also on behalf of him to suffer;
field: 50001030
50
1
30
the same conflict having, such as ye saw in me, and now hear of in me.
field: 50002001
50
2
1
If, then, any exhortation `is' in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of spirit, if any bowels and mercies,
field: 50002002
50
2
2
fulfil ye my joy, that ye may mind the same thing -- having the same love -- of one soul -- minding the one thing,
field: 50002003
50
2
3
nothing in rivalry or vain-glory, but in humility of mind one another counting more excellent than yourselves --
field: 50002004
50
2
4
each not to your own look ye, but each also to the things of others.
field: 50002005
50
2
5
For, let this mind be in you that `is' also in Christ Jesus,
field: 50002006
50
2
6
who, being in the form of God, thought `it' not robbery to be equal to God,
field: 50002007
50
2
7
but did empty himself, the form of a servant having taken, in the likeness of men having been made,
field: 50002008
50
2
8
and in fashion having been found as a man, he humbled himself, having become obedient unto death -- death even of a cross,
field: 50002009
50
2
9
wherefore, also, God did highly exalt him, and gave to him a name that `is' above every name,
field: 50002010
50
2
10
that in the name of Jesus every knee may bow -- of heavenlies, and earthlies, and what are under the earth --
field: 50002011
50
2
11
and every tongue may confess that Jesus Christ `is' Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
field: 50002012
50
2
12
So that, my beloved, as ye always obey, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, with fear and trembling your own salvation work out,
field: 50002013
50
2
13
for God it is who is working in you both to will and to work for His good pleasure.
field: 50002014
50
2
14
All things do without murmurings and reasonings,
field: 50002015
50
2
15
that ye may become blameless and harmless, children of God, unblemished in the midst of a generation crooked and perverse, among whom ye do appear as luminaries in the world,
field: 50002016
50
2
16
the word of life holding forth, for rejoicing to me in regard to a day of Christ, that not in vain did I run, nor in vain did I labour;
field: 50002017
50
2
17
but if also I am poured forth upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice and joy with you all,
field: 50002018
50
2
18
because of this do ye also rejoice and joy with me.
field: 50002019
50
2
19
And I hope, in the Lord Jesus, Timotheus to send quickly to you, that I also may be of good spirit, having known the things concerning you,
field: 50002020
50
2
20
for I have no one like-minded, who sincerely for the things concerning you will care,
field: 50002021
50
2
21
for the whole seek their own things, not the things of the Christ Jesus,
field: 50002022
50
2
22
and the proof of him ye know, that as a child `serveth' a father, with me he did serve in regard to the good news;
field: 50002023
50
2
23
him, indeed, therefore, I hope to send, when I may see through the things concerning me -- immediately;
field: 50002024
50
2
24
and I trust in the Lord that I myself also shall quickly come.
field: 50002025
50
2
25
And I thought `it' necessary Epaphroditus -- my brother, and fellow-workman, and fellow-soldier, and your apostle and servant to my need -- to send unto you,
field: 50002026
50
2
26
seeing he was longing after you all, and in heaviness, because ye heard that he ailed,
field: 50002027
50
2
27
for he also ailed nigh to death, but God did deal kindly with him, and not with him only, but also with me, that sorrow upon sorrow I might not have.
field: 50002028
50
2
28
The more eagerly, therefore, I did send him, that having seen him again ye may rejoice, and I may be the less sorrowful;
field: 50002029
50
2
29
receive him, therefore, in the Lord, with all joy, and hold such in honour,
field: 50002030
50
2
30
because on account of the work of the Christ he drew near to death, having hazarded the life that he might fill up your deficiency of service unto me.
field: 50003001
50
3
1
As to the rest, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord; the same things to write to you to me indeed is not tiresome, and for you `is' sure;
field: 50003002
50
3
2
look to the dogs, look to the evil-workers, look to the concision;
field: 50003003
50
3
3
for we are the circumcision, who by the Spirit are serving God, and glorying in Christ Jesus, and in flesh having no trust,
field: 50003004
50
3
4
though I also have `cause of' trust in flesh. If any other one doth think to have trust in flesh, I more;
field: 50003005
50
3
5
circumcision on the eighth day! of the race of Israel! of the tribe of Benjamin! a Hebrew of Hebrews! according to law a Pharisee!
field: 50003006
50
3
6
according to zeal persecuting the assembly! according to righteousness that is in law becoming blameless!
field: 50003007
50
3
7
But what things were to me gains, these I have counted, because of the Christ, loss;
field: 50003008
50

yes, indeed, and I count all things to be loss, because of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, because of whom of the all things I suffered loss, and do count them to be refuse, that Christ I may gain, and be found in him,
field: 50003009
50
3
9
not having my righteousness, which `is' of law, but that which `is' through faith of Christ -- the righteousness that is of God by the faith,
field: 50003010
50
3
10
to know him, and the power of his rising again, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being conformed to his death,
field: 50003011
50
3
11
if anyhow I may attain to the rising again of the dead.
field: 50003012
50
3
12
Not that I did already obtain, or have been already perfected; but I pursue, if also I may lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by the Christ Jesus;
field: 50003013
50
3
13
brethren, I do not reckon myself to have laid hold; and one thing -- the things behind indeed forgetting, and to the things before stretching forth --
field: 50003014
50
3
14
to the mark I pursue for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
field: 50003015
50
3
15
As many, therefore, as `are' perfect -- let us think this, and if `in' anything ye think otherwise, this also shall God reveal to you,
field: 50003016
50
3
16
but to what we have come -- by the same rule walk, the same thing think;
field: 50003017
50
3
17
become followers together of me, brethren, and observe those thus walking, according as ye have us -- a pattern;
field: 50003018
50
3
18
for many walk of whom many times I told you -- and now also weeping tell -- the enemies of the cross of the Christ!
field: 50003019
50
3
19
whose end `is' destruction, whose god `is' the belly, and whose glory `is' in their shame, who the things on earth are minding.
field: 50003020
50
3
20
For our citizenship is in the heavens, whence also a Saviour we await -- the Lord Jesus Christ --
field: 50003021
50
3
21
who shall transform the body of our humiliation to its becoming conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working of his power, even to subject to himself the all things.
field: 50004001
50

So then, my brethren, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand ye in the Lord, beloved.
field: 50004002
50
4
2
Euodia I exhort, and Syntyche I exhort, to be of the same mind in the Lord;
field: 50004003
50
4
3
and I ask also thee, genuine yoke-fellow, be assisting those women who in the good news did strive along with me, with Clement also, and the others, my fellow-workers, whose names `are' in the book of life.
field: 50004004
50
4
4
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice;
field: 50004005
50
4
5
let your forbearance be known to all men; the Lord `is' near;
field: 50004006
50
4
6
for nothing be anxious, but in everything by prayer, and by supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God;
field: 50004007
50
4
7
and the peace of God, that is surpassing all understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.
field: 50004008
50

As to the rest, brethren, as many things as are true, as many as `are' grave, as many as `are' righteous, as many as `are' pure, as many as `are' lovely, as many as `are' of good report, if any worthiness, and if any praise, these things think upon;
field: 50004009
50
4
9
the things that also ye did learn, and receive, and hear, and saw in me, those do, and the God of the peace shall be with you.
field: 50004010
50
4
10
And I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at length ye flourished again in caring for me, for which also ye were caring, and lacked opportunity;
field: 50004011
50
4
11
not that in respect of want I say `it', for I did learn in the things in which I am -- to be content;
field: 50004012
50
4
12
I have known both to be abased, and I have known to abound; in everything and in all things I have been initiated, both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in want.
field: 50004013
50
4
13
For all things I have strength, in Christ's strengthening me;
field: 50004014
50
4
14
but ye did well, having communicated with my tribulation;
field: 50004015
50
4
15
and ye have known, even ye Philippians, that in the beginning of the good news when I went forth from Macedonia, no assembly did communicate with me in regard to giving and receiving except ye only;
field: 50004016
50
4
16
because also in Thessalonica, both once and again to my need ye sent;
field: 50004017
50
4
17
not that I seek after the gift, but I seek after the fruit that is overflowing to your account;
field: 50004018
50
4
18
and I have all things, and abound; I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things from you -- an odour of a sweet smell -- a sacrifice acceptable, well-pleasing to God:
field: 50004019
50
4
19
and my God shall supply all your need, according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus;
field: 50004020
50
4
20
and to God, even our Father, `is' the glory -- to the ages of the ages. Amen.
field: 50004021
50

21
Salute ye every saint in Christ Jesus; there salute you the brethren with me;
field: 50004022
50
4
22
there salute you all the saints, and specially those of Caesar's house;
field: 50004023
50

23
the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ `is' with you all. Amen.

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Timotheus the brother,
field: 51001002
51
1
2
to the saints in Colossae, and to the faithful brethren in Christ: Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!
field: 51001003
51
1
3
We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying for you,
field: 51001004
51
1
4
having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love that `is' to all the saints,
field: 51001005
51
1
5
because of the hope that is laid up for you in the heavens, which ye heard of before in the word of the truth of the good news,
field: 51001006
51
1
6
which is present to you, as also in all the world, and is bearing fruit, as also in you, from the day in which ye heard, and knew the grace of God in truth;
field: 51001007
51
1
7
as ye also learned from Epaphras, our beloved fellow-servant, who is for you a faithful ministrant of the Christ,
field: 51001008
51
1
8
who also did declare to us your love in the Spirit.
field: 51001009
51
1
9
Because of this, we also, from the day in which we heard, do not cease praying for you, and asking that ye may be filled with the full knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding,
field: 51001010
51
1
10
to your walking worthily of the Lord to all pleasing, in every good work being fruitful, and increasing to the knowledge of God,
field: 51001011
51
1
11
in all might being made mighty according to the power of His glory, to all endurance and long-suffering with joy.
field: 51001012
51
1
12
Giving thanks to the Father who did make us meet for the participation of the inheritance of the saints in the light,
field: 51001013
51
1
13
who did rescue us out of the authority of the darkness, and did translate `us' into the reign of the Son of His love,
field: 51001014
51
1
14
in whom we have the redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of the sins,
field: 51001015
51
1
15
who is the image of the invisible God, first-born of all creation,
field: 51001016
51
1
16
because in him were the all things created, those in the heavens, and those upon the earth, those visible, and those invisible, whether thrones, whether lordships, whether principalities, whether authorities; all things through him, and for him, have been created,
field: 51001017
51
1
17
and himself is before all, and the all things in him have consisted.
field: 51001018
51
1
18
And himself is the head of the body -- the assembly -- who is a beginning, a first-born out of the dead, that he might become in all `things' -- himself -- first,
field: 51001019
51
1
19
because in him it did please all the fulness to tabernacle,
field: 51001020
51
1
20
and through him to reconcile the all things to himself -- having made peace through the blood of his cross -- through him, whether the things upon the earth, whether the things in the heavens.
field: 51001021
51
1
21
And you -- once being alienated, and enemies in the mind, in the evil works, yet now did he reconcile,
field: 51001022
51
1
22
in the body of his flesh through the death, to present you holy, and unblemished, and unblameable before himself,
field: 51001023
51
1
23
if also ye remain in the faith, being founded and settled, and not moved away from the hope of the good news, which ye heard, which was preached in all the creation that `is' under the heaven, of which I became -- I Paul -- a ministrant.
field: 51001024
51
1
24
I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and do fill up the things lacking of the tribulations of the Christ in my flesh for his body, which is the assembly,
field: 51001025
51
1
25
of which I -- I did become a ministrant according to the dispensation of God, that was given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God,
field: 51001026
51
1
26
the secret that hath been hid from the ages and from the generations, but now was manifested to his saints,
field: 51001027
51
1
27
to whom God did will to make known what `is' the riches of the glory of this secret among the nations -- which is Christ in you, the hope of the glory,
field: 51001028
51
1
28
whom we proclaim, warning every man, and teaching every man, in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus,
field: 51001029
51
1
29
for which also I labour, striving according to his working that is working in me in power.
field: 51002001
51
2
1
For I wish you to know how great a conflict I have for you and those in Laodicea, and as many as have not seen my face in the flesh,
field: 51002002
51
2
2
that their hearts may be comforted, being united in love, and to all riches of the full assurance of the understanding, to the full knowledge of the secret of the God and Father, and of the Christ,
field: 51002003
51
2
3
in whom are all the treasures of the wisdom and the knowledge hid,
field: 51002004
51
2
4
and this I say, that no one may beguile you in enticing words,
field: 51002005
51
2
5
for if even in the flesh I am absent -- yet in the spirit I am with you, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in regard to Christ;
field: 51002006
51
2
6
as, then, ye did receive Christ Jesus the Lord, in him walk ye,
field: 51002007
51
2
7
being rooted and built up in him, and confirmed in the faith, as ye were taught -- abounding in it in thanksgiving.
field: 51002008
51
2
8
See that no one shall be carrying you away as spoil through the philosophy and vain deceit, according to the deliverance of men, according to the rudiments of the world, and not according to Christ,
field: 51002009
51
2
9
because in him doth tabernacle all the fulness of the Godhead bodily,
field: 51002010
51
2
10
and ye are in him made full, who is the head of all principality and authority,
field: 51002011
51
2
11
in whom also ye were circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the sins of the flesh in the circumcision of the Christ,
field: 51002012
51
2
12
being buried with him in the baptism, in which also ye rose with `him' through the faith of the working of God, who did raise him out of the dead.
field: 51002013
51
2
13
And you -- being dead in the trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh -- He made alive together with him, having forgiven you all the trespasses,
field: 51002014
51
2
14
having blotted out the handwriting in the ordinances that is against us, that was contrary to us, and he hath taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross;
field: 51002015
51
2
15
having stripped the principalities and the authorities, he made a shew of them openly -- having triumphed over them in it.
field: 51002016
51
2
16
Let no one, then, judge you in eating or in drinking, or in respect of a feast, or of a new moon, or of sabbaths,
field: 51002017
51
2
17
which are a shadow of the coming things, and the body `is' of the Christ;
field: 51002018
51
2
18
let no one beguile you of your prize, delighting in humble-mindedness and `in' worship of the messengers, intruding into the things he hath not seen, being vainly puffed up by the mind of his flesh,
field: 51002019
51
2
19
and not holding the head, from which all the body -- through the joints and bands gathering supply, and being knit together -- may increase with the increase of God.
field: 51002020
51
2
20
If, then, ye did die with the Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances?
field: 51002021
51
2
21
-- thou mayest not touch, nor taste, nor handle --
field: 51002022
51
2
22
which are all for destruction with the using, after the commands and teachings of men,
field: 51002023
51
2
23
which are, indeed, having a matter of wisdom in will-worship, and humble-mindedness, and neglecting of body -- not in any honour, unto a satisfying of the flesh.
field: 51003001
51
3
1
If, then, ye were raised with the Christ, the things above seek ye, where the Christ is, on the right hand of God seated,
field: 51003002
51
3
2
the things above mind ye, not the things upon the earth,
field: 51003003
51
3
3
for ye did die, and your life hath been hid with the Christ in God;
field: 51003004
51
3
4
when the Christ -- our life -- may be manifested, then also we with him shall be manifested in glory.
field: 51003005
51
3
5
Put to death, then, your members that `are' upon the earth -- whoredom, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and the covetousness, which is idolatry --
field: 51003006
51
3
6
because of which things cometh the anger of God upon the sons of the disobedience,
field: 51003007
51
3
7
in which also ye -- ye did walk once, when ye lived in them;
field: 51003008
51
3
8
but now put off, even ye, the whole -- anger, wrath, malice, evil-speaking, filthy talking -- out of your mouth.
field: 51003009
51
3
9
Lie not one to another, having put off the old man with his practices,
field: 51003010
51
3
10
and having put on the new, which is renewed in regard to knowledge, after the image of Him who did create him;
field: 51003011
51
3
11
where there is not Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, foreigner, Scythian, servant, freeman -- but the all and in all -- Christ.
field: 51003012
51
3
12
Put on, therefore, as choice ones of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humble-mindedness, meekness, long-suffering,
field: 51003013
51
3
13
forbearing one another, and forgiving each other, if any one with any one may have a quarrel, as also the Christ did forgive you -- so also ye;
field: 51003014
51
3
14
and above all these things, `have' love, which is a bond of the perfection,
field: 51003015
51
3
15
and let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also ye were called in one body, and become thankful.
field: 51003016
51
3
16
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing each other, in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, in grace singing in your hearts to the Lord;
field: 51003017
51
3
17
and all, whatever ye may do in word or in work, `do' all things in the name of the Lord Jesus -- giving thanks to the God and Father, through him.
field: 51003018
51
3
18
The wives! be subject to your own husbands, as is fit in the Lord;
field: 51003019
51
3
19
the husbands! love your wives, and be not bitter with them;
field: 51003020
51
3
20
the children! obey the parents in all things, for this is well-pleasing to the Lord;
field: 51003021
51
3
21
the fathers! vex not your children, lest they be discouraged.
field: 51003022
51
3
22
The servants! obey in all things those who are masters according to the flesh, not in eye-service as men-pleasers, but in simplicity of heart, fearing God;
field: 51003023
51
3
23
and all, whatever ye may do -- out of soul work -- as to the Lord, and not to men,
field: 51003024
51
3
24
having known that from the Lord ye shall receive the recompense of the inheritance -- for the Lord Christ ye serve;
field: 51003025
51
3
25
and he who is doing unrighteously shall receive what he did unrighteously, and there is no acceptance of persons.
field: 51004001
51
4
1
The masters! that which is righteous and equal to the servants give ye, having known that ye also have a Master in the heavens.
field: 51004002
51
4
2
In the prayer continue ye, watching in it in thanksgiving;
field: 51004003
51
4
3
praying at the same time also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to speak the secret of the Christ, because of which also I have been bound,
field: 51004004
51
4
4
that I may manifest it, as it behoveth me to speak;
field: 51004005
51
4
5
in wisdom walk ye toward those without, the time forestalling;
field: 51004006
51
4
6
your word always in grace -- with salt being seasoned -- to know how it behoveth you to answer each one.
field: 51004007
51
4
7
All the things concerning me make known to you shall Tychicus -- the beloved brother, and faithful ministrant, and fellow-servant in the Lord --
field: 51004008
51
4
8
whom I did send unto you for this very thing, that he might know the things concerning you, and might comfort your hearts,
field: 51004009
51
4
9
with Onesimus the faithful and beloved brother, who is of you; all things to you shall they make known that `are' here.
field: 51004010
51
4
10
Salute you doth Aristarchus, my fellow-captive, and Marcus, the nephew of Barnabas, (concerning whom ye did receive commands -- if he may come unto you receive him,)
field: 51004011
51
4
11
and Jesus who is called Justus, who are of the circumcision: these only `are' fellow-workers for the reign of God who did become a comfort to me.
field: 51004012
51
4
12
Salute you doth Epaphras, who `is' of you, a servant of Christ, always striving for you in the prayers, that ye may stand perfect and made full in all the will of God,
field: 51004013
51
4
13
for I do testify to him, that he hath much zeal for you, and those in Laodicea, and those in Hierapolis.
field: 51004014
51
4
14
Salute you doth Lukas, the beloved physician, and Demas;
field: 51004015
51
4
15
salute ye those in Laodicea -- brethren, and Nymphas, and the assembly in his house;
field: 51004016
51
4
16
and when the epistle may be read with you, cause that also in the assembly of the Laodiceans it may be read, and the `epistle' from Laodicea that ye also may read;
field: 51004017
51
4
17
and say to Archippus, `See to the ministration that thou didst receive in the Lord, that thou mayest fulfil it.'
field: 51004018
51
4
18
The salutation by the hand of me, Paul; remember my bonds; the grace `is' with you. Amen.
field: 52001001
52
1
1
Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, to the assembly of Thessalonians in God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!
field: 52001002
52
1
2
We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers,
field: 52001003
52
1
3
unceasingly remembering of you the work of the faith, and the labour of the love, and the endurance of the hope, of our Lord Jesus Christ, in the presence of our God and Father,
field: 52001004
52
1
4
having known, brethren beloved, by God, your election,
field: 52001005
52
1
5
because our good news did not come to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and in much assurance, even as ye have known of what sort we became among you because of you,
field: 52001006
52
1
6
and ye -- ye did become imitators of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much tribulation, with joy of the Holy Spirit,
field: 52001007
52
1
7
so that ye became patterns to all those believing in Macedonia and Achaia,
field: 52001008
52
1
8
for from you hath sounded forth the word of the Lord, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God did go forth, so that we have no need to say anything,
field: 52001009
52
1
9
for they themselves concerning us do declare what entrance we had unto you, and how ye did turn unto God from the idols, to serve a living and true God,
field: 52001010
52
1
10
and to wait for His Son from the heavens, whom He did raise out of the dead -- Jesus, who is rescuing us from the anger that is coming.
field: 52002001
52
2
1
For yourselves have known, brethren, our entrance in unto you, that it did not become vain,
field: 52002002
52
2
2
but having both suffered before, and having been injuriously treated (as ye have known) in Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the good news of God in much conflict,
field: 52002003
52
2
3
for our exhortation `is' not out of deceit, nor out of uncleanness, nor in guile,
field: 52002004
52

4
but as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the good news, so we speak, not as pleasing men, but God, who is proving our hearts,
field: 52002005
52
2
5
for at no time did we come with speech of flattery, (as ye have known,) nor in a pretext for covetousness, (God `is' witness!)
field: 52002006
52
2
6
nor seeking of men glory, neither from you nor from others, being able to be burdensome, as Christ's apostles.
field: 52002007
52
2
7
But we became gentle in your midst, as a nurse may cherish her own children,
field: 52002008
52
2
8
so being desirous of you, we are well-pleased to impart to you not only the good news of God, but also our own souls, because beloved ye have become to us,
field: 52002009
52
2
9
for ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail, for, night and day working not to be a burden upon any of you, we did preach to you the good news of God;
field: 52002010
52
2
10
ye `are' witnesses -- God also -- how kindly and righteously, and blamelessly to you who believe we became,
field: 52002011
52
2
11
even as ye have known, how each one of you, as a father his own children, we are exhorting you, and comforting, and testifying,
field: 52002012
52
2
12
for your walking worthily of God, who is calling you to His own reign and glory.
field: 52002013
52
2
13
Because of this also, we -- we do give thanks to God continually, that, having received the word of hearing from us of God, ye accepted, not the word of man, but as it is truly, the word of God, who also doth work in you who believe;
field: 52002014
52
2
14
for ye became imitators, brethren, of the assemblies of God that are in Judea in Christ Jesus, because such things ye suffered, even ye, from your own countrymen, as also they from the Jews,
field: 52002015
52
2
15
who did both put to death the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and did persecute us, and God they are not pleasing, and to all men `are' contrary,
field: 52002016
52
2
16
forbidding us to speak to the nations that they might be saved, to fill up their sins always, but the anger did come upon them -- to the end!
field: 52002017
52
2
17
And we, brethren, having been taken from you for the space of an hour -- in presence, not in heart -- did hasten the more abundantly to see your face in much desire,
field: 52002018
52
2
18
wherefore we wished to come unto you, (I indeed Paul,) both once and again, and the Adversary did hinder us;
field: 52002019
52
2
19
for what `is' our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? are not even ye before our Lord Jesus Christ in his presence?
field: 52002020
52
2
20
for ye are our glory and joy.
field: 52003001
52
3
1
Wherefore no longer forbearing, we thought good to be left in Athens alone,
field: 52003002
52
3
2
and did send Timotheus -- our brother, and a ministrant of God, and our fellow-workman in the good news of the Christ -- to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith,
field: 52003003
52
3
3
that no one be moved in these tribulations, for yourselves have known that for this we are set,
field: 52003004
52
3
4
for even when we were with you, we said to you beforehand, that we are about to suffer tribulation, as also it did come to pass, and ye have known `it';
field: 52003005
52
3
5
because of this also, I, no longer forbearing, did send to know your faith, lest he who is tempting did tempt you, and in vain might be our labour.
field: 52003006
52
3
6
And now Timotheus having come unto us from you, and having declared good news to us of your faith and love, and that ye have a good remembrance of us always, desiring much to see us, as we also `to see' you,
field: 52003007
52
3
7
because of this we were comforted, brethren, over you, in all our tribulation and necessity, through your faith,
field: 52003008
52
3
8
because now we live, if ye may stand fast in the Lord;
field: 52003009
52
3
9
for what thanks are we able to recompense to God for you, for all the joy with which we do joy because of you in the presence of our God?
field: 52003010
52
3
10
night and day exceedingly beseeching, that we might see your face, and perfect the things lacking in your faith.
field: 52003011
52
3
11
And our God and Father Himself, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way unto you,
field: 52003012
52
3
12
and you the Lord cause to increase and to abound in the love to one another, and to all, even as we also to you,
field: 52003013
52
3
13
to the establishing your hearts blameless in sanctification before our God and Father, in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ with all His saints.
field: 52004001
52
4
1
As to the rest, then, brethren, we request you, and call upon you in the Lord Jesus, as ye did receive from us how it behoveth you to walk and to please God, that ye may abound the more,
field: 52004002
52
4
2
for ye have known what commands we gave you through the Lord Jesus,
field: 52004003
52
4
3
for this is the will of God -- your sanctification; that ye abstain from the whoredom,
field: 52004004
52
4
4
that each of you know his own vessel to possess in sanctification and honour,
field: 52004005
52
4
5
not in the affection of desire, as also the nations that were not knowing God,
field: 52004006
52
4
6
that no one go beyond and defraud in the matter his brother, because an avenger `is' the Lord of all these, as also we spake before to you and testified,
field: 52004007
52
4
7
for God did not call us on uncleanness, but in sanctification;
field: 52004008
52
4
8
he, therefore, who is despising -- doth not despise man, but God, who also did give His Holy Spirit to us.
field: 52004009
52
4
9
And concerning the brotherly love, ye have no need of `my' writing to you, for ye yourselves are God-taught to love one another,
field: 52004010
52
4
10
for ye do it also to all the brethren who `are' in all Macedonia; and we call upon you, brethren, to abound still more,
field: 52004011
52
4
11
and to study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we did command you,
field: 52004012
52
4
12
that ye may walk becomingly unto those without, and may have lack of nothing.
field: 52004013
52
4
13
And I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, that ye may not sorrow, as also the rest who have not hope,
field: 52004014
52
4
14
for if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so also God those asleep through Jesus he will bring with him,
field: 52004015
52
4
15
for this to you we say in the word of the Lord, that we who are living -- who do remain over to the presence of the Lord -- may not precede those asleep,
field: 52004016
52
4
16
because the Lord himself, in a shout, in the voice of a chief-messenger, and in the trump of God, shall come down from heaven, and the dead in Christ shall rise first,
field: 52004017
52
4
17
then we who are living, who are remaining over, together with them shall be caught away in clouds to meet the Lord in air, and so always with the Lord we shall be;
field: 52004018
52
4
18
so, then, comfort ye one another in these words.
field: 52005001
52
5
1
And concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need of my writing to you,
field: 52005002
52
5
2
for yourselves have known thoroughly that the day of the Lord as a thief in the night doth so come,
field: 52005003
52
5
3
for when they may say, Peace and surety, then sudden destruction doth stand by them, as the travail `doth' her who is with child, and they shall not escape;
field: 52005004
52
5
4
and ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day may catch you as a thief;
field: 52005005
52
5
5
all ye are sons of light, and sons of day; we are not of night, nor of darkness,
field: 52005006
52
5
6
so, then, we may not sleep as also the others, but watch and be sober,
field: 52005007
52
5
7
for those sleeping, by night do sleep, and those making themselves drunk, by night are drunken,
field: 52005008
52
5
8
and we, being of the day -- let us be sober, putting on a breastplate of faith and love, and an helmet -- a hope of salvation,
field: 52005009
52
5
9
because God did not appoint us to anger, but to the acquiring of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
field: 52005010
52
5
10
who did die for us, that whether we wake -- whether we sleep -- together with him we may live;
field: 52005011
52
5
11
wherefore, comfort ye one another, and build ye up, one the one, as also ye do.
field: 52005012
52
5
12
And we ask you, brethren, to know those labouring among you, and leading you in the Lord, and admonishing you,
field: 52005013
52
5
13
and to esteem them very abundantly in love, because of their work; be at peace among yourselves;
field: 52005014
52
5
14
and we exhort you, brethren, admonish the disorderly, comfort the feeble-minded, support the infirm, be patient unto all;
field: 52005015
52
5
15
see no one evil for evil may render to any one, but always that which is good pursue ye, both to one another and to all;
field: 52005016
52
5
16
always rejoice ye;
field: 52005017
52
5
17
continually pray ye;
field: 52005018
52
5
18
in every thing give thanks, for this `is' the will of God in Christ Jesus in regard to you.
field: 52005019
52
5
19
The Spirit quench not;
field: 52005020
52
5
20
prophesyings despise not;
field: 52005021
52
5
21
all things prove; that which is good hold fast;
field: 52005022
52
5
22
from all appearance of evil abstain ye;
field: 52005023
52
5
23
and the God of the peace Himself sanctify you wholly, and may your whole spirit, and soul, and body, be preserved unblameably in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ;
field: 52005024
52
5
24
stedfast is He who is calling you, who also will do `it'.
field: 52005025
52
5
25
Brethren, pray for us;
field: 52005026
52
5
26
salute all the brethren in an holy kiss;
field: 52005027
52
5
27
I charge you `by' the Lord, that the letter be read to all the holy brethren;
field: 52005028
52
5
28
the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ `is' with you! Amen.
field: 53001001
53
1
1
Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, to the assembly of Thessalonians in God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ:
field: 53001002
53
1
2
Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!
field: 53001003
53
1
3
We ought to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because increase greatly doth your faith, and abound doth the love of each one of you all, to one another;
field: 53001004
53
1
4
so that we ourselves do glory in you in the assemblies of God, for your endurance and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye bear;
field: 53001005
53
1
5
a token of the righteous judgment of God, for your being counted worthy of the reign of God, for which also ye suffer,
field: 53001006
53
1
6
since `it is' a righteous thing with God to give back to those troubling you -- trouble,
field: 53001007
53
1
7
and to you who are troubled -- rest with us in the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with messengers of his power,
field: 53001008
53
1
8
in flaming fire, giving vengeance to those not knowing God, and to those not obeying the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ;
field: 53001009
53
1
9
who shall suffer justice -- destruction age-during -- from the face of the Lord, and from the glory of his strength,
field: 53001010
53
1
10
when He may come to be glorified in his saints, and to be wondered at in all those believing -- because our testimony was believed among you -- in that day;
field: 53001011
53
1
11
for which also we do pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of the calling, and may fulfil all the good pleasure of goodness, and the work of the faith in power,
field: 53001012
53
1
12
that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and Lord Jesus Christ.
field: 53002001
53
2
1
And we ask you, brethren, in regard to the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, and of our gathering together unto him,
field: 53002002
53
2
2
that ye be not quickly shaken in mind, nor be troubled, neither through spirit, neither through word, neither through letters as through us, as that the day of Christ hath arrived;
field: 53002003
53
2
3
let not any one deceive you in any manner, because -- if the falling away may not come first, and the man of sin be revealed -- the son of the destruction,
field: 53002004
53
2
4
who is opposing and is raising himself up above all called God or worshipped, so that he in the sanctuary of God as God hath sat down, shewing himself off that he is God -- `the day doth not come'.
field: 53002005
53
2
5
Do ye not remember that, being yet with you, these things I said to you?
field: 53002006
53
2
6
and now, what is keeping down ye have known, for his being revealed in his own time,
field: 53002007
53
2
7
for the secret of the lawlessness doth already work, only he who is keeping down now `will hinder' -- till he may be out of the way,
field: 53002008
53
2
8
and then shall be revealed the Lawless One, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the manifestation of his presence,
field: 53002009
53
2
9
`him,' whose presence is according to the working of the Adversary, in all power, and signs, and lying wonders,
field: 53002010
53
2
10
and in all deceitfulness of the unrighteousness in those perishing, because the love of the truth they did not receive for their being saved,
field: 53002011
53
2
11
and because of this shall God send to them a working of delusion, for their believing the lie,
field: 53002012
53
2
12
that they may be judged -- all who did not believe the truth, but were well pleased in the unrighteousness.
field: 53002013
53
2
13
And we -- we ought to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, beloved by the Lord, that God did choose you from the beginning to salvation, in sanctification of the Spirit, and belief of the truth,
field: 53002014
53
2
14
to which He did call you through our good news, to the acquiring of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ;
field: 53002015
53
2
15
so, then, brethren, stand ye fast, and hold the deliverances that ye were taught, whether through word, whether through our letter;
field: 53002016
53
2
16
and may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and our God and Father, who did love us, and did give comfort age-during, and good hope in grace,
field: 53002017
53
2
17
comfort your hearts, and establish you in every good word and work.
field: 53003001
53
3
1
As to the rest, pray ye, brethren, concerning us, that the word of the Lord may run and may be glorified, as also with you,
field: 53003002
53
3
2
and that we may be delivered from the unreasonable and evil men, for the faith `is' not of all;
field: 53003003
53
3
3
and stedfast is the Lord, who shall establish you, and shall guard `you' from the evil;
field: 53003004
53
3
4
and we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that the things that we command you ye both do and will do;
field: 53003005
53
3
5
and the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God, and to the endurance of the Christ.
field: 53003006
53
3
6
And we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to withdraw yourselves from every brother disorderly walking, and not after the deliverance that ye received from us,
field: 53003007
53
3
7
for yourselves have known how it behoveth `you' to imitate us, because we did not act disorderly among you;
field: 53003008
53
3
8
nor for nought did we eat bread of any one, but in labour and in travail, night and day working, not to be chargeable to any of you;
field: 53003009
53
3
9
not because we have not authority, but that ourselves a pattern we might give to you, to imitate us;
field: 53003010
53
3
10
for even when we were with you, this we did command you, that if any one is not willing to work, neither let him eat,
field: 53003011
53
3
11
for we hear of certain walking among you disorderly, nothing working, but over working,
field: 53003012
53
3
12
and such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness working, their own bread they may eat;
field: 53003013
53
3
13
and ye, brethren, may ye not be weary doing well,
field: 53003014
53
3
14
and if any one do not obey our word through the letter, this one note ye, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed,
field: 53003015
53
3
15
and as an enemy count `him' not, but admonish ye `him' as a brother;
field: 53003016
53
3
16
and may the Lord of the peace Himself give to you the peace always in every way; the Lord `is' with you all!
field: 53003017
53
3
17
The salutation by the hand of me, Paul, which is a sign in every letter; thus I write;
field: 53003018
53
3
18
the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ `is' with you all! Amen.
field: 54001001
54
1
1
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to a command of God our Saviour, and of the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,
field: 54001002
54
1
2
to Timotheus -- genuine child in faith: Grace, kindness, peace, from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord,
field: 54001003
54
1
3
according as I did exhort thee to remain in Ephesus -- I going on to Macedonia -- that thou mightest charge certain not to teach any other thing,
field: 54001004
54
1
4
nor to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, that cause questions rather than the building up of God that is in faith: --
field: 54001005
54
1
5
And the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned,
field: 54001006
54
1
6
from which certain, having swerved, did turn aside to vain discourse,
field: 54001007
54
1
7
willing to be teachers of law, not understanding either the things they say, nor concerning what they asseverate,
field: 54001008
54
1
8
and we have known that the law `is' good, if any one may use it lawfully;
field: 54001009
54
1
9
having known this, that for a righteous man law is not set, but for lawless and insubordinate persons, ungodly and sinners, impious and profane, parricides and matricides, men-slayers,
field: 54001010
54
1
10
whoremongers, sodomites, men-stealers, liars, perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that to sound doctrine is adverse,
field: 54001011
54
1
11
according to the good news of the glory of the blessed God, with which I was entrusted.
field: 54001012
54
1
12
And I give thanks to him who enabled me -- Christ Jesus our Lord -- that he did reckon me stedfast, having put `me' to the ministration,
field: 54001013
54
1
13
who before was speaking evil, and persecuting, and insulting, but I found kindness, because, being ignorant, I did `it' in unbelief,
field: 54001014
54
1
14
and exceedingly abound did the grace of our Lord, with faith and love that `is' in Christ Jesus:
field: 54001015
54
1
15
stedfast `is' the word, and of all acceptation worthy, that Christ Jesus came to the world to save sinners -- first of whom I am;
field: 54001016
54
1
16
but because of this I found kindness, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all long-suffering, for a pattern of those about to believe on him to life age-during:
field: 54001017
54
1
17
and to the King of the ages, the incorruptible, invisible, only wise God, `is' honour and glory -- to the ages of the ages! Amen.
field: 54001018
54
1
18
This charge I commit to thee, child Timotheus, according to the prophesies that went before upon thee, that thou mayest war in them the good warfare,
field: 54001019
54
1
19
having faith and a good conscience, which certain having thrust away, concerning the faith did make shipwreck,
field: 54001020
54
1
20
of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I did deliver to the Adversary, that they might be instructed not to speak evil.
field: 54002001
54
2
1
I exhort, then, first of all, there be made supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, for all men:
field: 54002002
54
2
2
for kings, and all who are in authority, that a quiet and peaceable life we may lead in all piety and gravity,
field: 54002003
54
2
3
for this `is' right and acceptable before God our Saviour,
field: 54002004
54
2
4
who doth will all men to be saved, and to come to the full knowledge of the truth;
field: 54002005
54
2
5
for one `is' God, one also `is' mediator of God and of men, the man Christ Jesus,
field: 54002006
54
2
6
who did give himself a ransom for all -- the testimony in its own times --
field: 54002007
54
2
7
in regard to which I was set a preacher and apostle -- truth I say in Christ, I do not lie -- a teacher of nations, in faith and truth.
field: 54002008

I wish, therefore, that men pray in every place, lifting up kind hands, apart from anger and reasoning;
field: 54002009
54
2
9
in like manner also the women, in becoming apparel, with modesty and sobriety to adorn themselves, not in braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or garments of great price,
field: 54002010
54
2
10
but -- which becometh women professing godly piety -- through good works.
field: 54002011
54
2
11
Let a woman in quietness learn in all subjection,
field: 54002012
54
2
12
and a woman I do not suffer to teach, nor to rule a husband, but to be in quietness,
field: 54002013
54
2
13
for Adam was first formed, then Eve,
field: 54002014
54
2
14
and Adam was not deceived, but the woman, having been deceived, into transgression came,
field: 54002015
54
2
15
and she shall be saved through the child-bearing, if they remain in faith, and love, and sanctification, with sobriety.
field: 54003001

1
Stedfast `is' the word: If any one the oversight doth long for, a right work he desireth;
field: 54003002
54
3
2
it behoveth, therefore, the overseer to be blameless, of one wife a husband, vigilant, sober, decent, a friend of strangers, apt to teach,
field: 54003003
54
3
3
not given to wine, not a striker, not given to filthy lucre, but gentle, not contentious, not a lover of money,
field: 54003004
54
3
4
his own house leading well, having children in subjection with all gravity,
field: 54003005
54
3
5
(and if any one his own house `how' to lead hath not known, how an assembly of God shall he take care of?)
field: 54003006
54
3
6
not a new convert, lest having been puffed up he may fall to a judgment of the devil;
field: 54003007
54
3
7
and it behoveth him also to have a good testimony from those without, that he may not fall into reproach and a snare of the devil.
field: 54003008
54
3
8
Ministrants -- in like manner grave, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not given to filthy lucre,
field: 54003009
54
3
9
having the secret of the faith in a pure conscience,
field: 54003010
54
3
10
and let these also first be proved, then let them minister, being unblameable.
field: 54003011
54
3
11
Women -- in like manner grave, not false accusers, vigilant, faithful in all things.
field: 54003012
54
3
12
Ministrants -- let them be of one wife husbands; the children leading well, and their own houses,
field: 54003013
54
3
13
for those who did minister well a good step to themselves do acquire, and much boldness in faith that `is' in Christ Jesus.
field: 54003014
54
3
14
These things I write to thee, hoping to come unto thee soon,
field: 54003015
54
3
15
and if I delay, that thou mayest know how it behoveth `thee' to conduct thyself in the house of God, which is an assembly of the living God -- a pillar and foundation of the truth,
field: 54003016
54
3
16
and, confessedly, great is the secret of piety -- God was manifested in flesh, declared righteous in spirit, seen by messengers, preached among nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory!
field: 54004001
54
4
1
And the Spirit expressly speaketh, that in latter times shall certain fall away from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and teachings of demons,
field: 54004002
54
4
2
in hypocrisy speaking lies, being seared in their own conscience,
field: 54004003
54
4
3
forbidding to marry -- to abstain from meats that God created to be received with thanksgiving by those believing and acknowledging the truth,
field: 54004004
54
4
4
because every creature of God `is' good, and nothing `is' to be rejected, with thanksgiving being received,
field: 54004005
54
4
5
for it is sanctified through the word of God and intercession.
field: 54004006
54
4
6
These things placing before the brethren, thou shalt be a good ministrant of Jesus Christ, being nourished by the words of the faith, and of the good teaching, which thou didst follow after,
field: 54004007
54
4
7
and the profane and old women's fables reject thou, and exercise thyself unto piety,
field: 54004008
54
4
8
for the bodily exercise is unto little profit, and the piety is to all things profitable, a promise having of the life that now is, and of that which is coming;
field: 54004009
54
4
9
stedfast `is' the word, and of all acceptation worthy;
field: 54004010
54
4
10
for for this we both labour and are reproached, because we hope on the living God, who is Saviour of all men -- especially of those believing.
field: 54004011
54
4
11
Charge these things, and teach;
field: 54004012
54
4
12
let no one despise thy youth, but a pattern become thou of those believing in word, in behaviour, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity;
field: 54004013
54
4
13
till I come, give heed to the reading, to the exhortation, to the teaching;
field: 54004014
54
4
14
be not careless of the gift in thee, that was given thee through prophecy, with laying on of the hands of the eldership;
field: 54004015
54
4
15
of these things be careful; in these things be, that thy advancement may be manifest in all things;
field: 54004016
54
4
16
take heed to thyself, and to the teaching; remain in them, for this thing doing, both thyself thou shalt save, and those hearing thee.
field: 54005001
54
5
1
An aged person thou mayest not rebuke, but be entreating as a father; younger persons as brethren;
field: 54005002
54
5
2
aged women as mothers, younger ones as sisters -- in all purity;
field: 54005003
54
5
3
honour widows who are really widows;
field: 54005004
54
5
4
and if any widow have children or grandchildren, let them learn first to their own house to show piety, and to give back a recompense to the parents, for this is right and acceptable before God.
field: 54005005
54
5
5
And she who is really a widow and desolate, hath hoped upon God, and doth remain in the supplications and in the prayers night and day,
field: 54005006
54
5
6
and she who is given to luxury, living -- hath died;
field: 54005007
54
5
7
and these things charge, that they may be blameless;
field: 54005008
54
5
8
and if any one for his own -- and especially for those of the household -- doth not provide, the faith he hath denied, and than an unbeliever he is worse.
field: 54005009
54
5
9
A widow -- let her not be enrolled under sixty years of age, having been a wife of one husband,
field: 54005010
54
5
10
in good works being testified to: if she brought up children, if she entertained strangers, if saints' feet she washed, if those in tribulation she relieved, if every good work she followed after;
field: 54005011
54
5
11
and younger widows be refusing, for when they may revel against the Christ, they wish to marry,
field: 54005012
54
5
12
having judgment, because the first faith they did cast away,
field: 54005013
54
5
13
and at the same time also, they learn `to be' idle, going about the houses; and not only idle, but also tattlers and busybodies, speaking the things they ought not;
field: 54005014
54
5
14
I wish, therefore, younger ones to marry, to bear children, to be mistress of the house, to give no occasion to the opposer to reviling;
field: 54005015
54
5
15
for already certain did turn aside after the Adversary.
field: 54005016
54
5
16
If any believing man or believing woman have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the assembly be burdened, that those really widows it may relieve.
field: 54005017
54
5
17
The well-leading elders of double honour let them be counted worthy, especially those labouring in word and teaching,
field: 54005018
54
5
18
for the Writing saith, `An ox treading out thou shalt not muzzle,' and `Worthy `is' the workman of his reward.'
field: 54005019
54
5
19
Against an elder an accusation receive not, except upon two or three witnesses.
field: 54005020
54
5
20
Those sinning, reprove before all, that the others also may have fear;
field: 54005021
54
5
21
I testify fully, before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the choice messengers, that these things thou mayest keep, without forejudging, doing nothing by partiality.
field: 54005022
54
5
22
Be laying hands quickly on no one, nor be having fellowship with sins of others; be keeping thyself pure;
field: 54005023
54
5
23
no longer be drinking water, but a little wine be using, because of thy stomach and of thine often infirmities;
field: 54005024
54
5
24
of certain men the sins are manifest beforehand, leading before to judgment, and certain also they follow after;
field: 54005025
54
5
25
in like manner also the right works are manifest beforehand, and those that are otherwise are not able to be hid.
field: 54006001
54
6
1
As many as are servants under a yoke, their own masters worthy of all honour let them reckon, that the name of God and the teaching may not be evil spoken of;
field: 54006002
54
6
2
and those having believing masters, let them not slight `them', because they are brethren, but rather let them serve, because they are stedfast and beloved, who of the benefit are partaking. These things be teaching and exhorting;
field: 54006003
54
6
3
if any one be teaching otherwise, and do not consent to sound words -- those of our Lord Jesus Christ -- and to the teaching according to piety,
field: 54006004
54
6
4
he is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and word-striving, out of which doth come envy, strife, evil-speakings, evil-surmisings,
field: 54006005
54
6
5
wranglings of men wholly corrupted in mind, and destitute of the truth, supposing the piety to be gain; depart from such;
field: 54006006
54
6
6
but it is great gain -- the piety with contentment;
field: 54006007
54
6
7
for nothing did we bring into the world -- `it is' manifest that we are able to carry nothing out;
field: 54006008
54
6
8
but having food and raiment -- with these we shall suffice ourselves;
field: 54006009
54
6
9
and those wishing to be rich, do fall into temptation and a snare, and many desires, foolish and hurtful, that sink men into ruin and destruction,
field: 54006010
54
6
10
for a root of all the evils is the love of money, which certain longing for did go astray from the faith, and themselves did pierce through with many sorrows;
field: 54006011
54
6
11
and thou, O man of God, these things flee, and pursue righteousness, piety, faith, love, endurance, meekness;
field: 54006012
54
6
12
be striving the good strife of the faith, be laying hold on the life age-during, to which also thou wast called, and didst profess the right profession before many witnesses.
field: 54006013
54
6
13
I charge thee, before God, who is making all things alive, and of Christ Jesus, who did testify before Pontius Pilate the right profession,
field: 54006014
54
6
14
that thou keep the command unspotted, unblameable, till the manifestation of our Lord Jesus Christ,
field: 54006015
54
6
15
which in His own times He shall shew -- the blessed and only potentate, the King of the kings and Lord of the lords,
field: 54006016
54
6
16
who only is having immortality, dwelling in light unapproachable, whom no one of men did see, nor is able to see, to whom `is' honour and might age-during! Amen.
field: 54006017
54
6
17
Those rich in the present age charge thou not to be high-minded, nor to hope in the uncertainty of riches, but in the living God, who is giving to us all things richly for enjoyment; --
field: 54006018
54
6
18
to do good, to be rich in good works, to be ready to impart, willing to communicate,
field: 54006019
54
6
19
treasuring up to themselves a right foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on the life age-during.
field: 54006020
54
6
20
O Timotheus, the thing entrusted guard thou, avoiding the profane vain-words and opposition of the falsely-named knowledge,
field: 54006021
54
6
21
which certain professing -- concerning the faith did swerve; the grace `is' with you. Amen.
field: 55001001
55

1
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, through the will of God, according to a promise of life that `is' in Christ Jesus,
field: 55001002
55
1
2
to Timotheus, beloved child: Grace, kindness, peace, from God the Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord!
field: 55001003
55
1
3
I am thankful to God, whom I serve from progenitors in a pure conscience, that unceasingly I have remembrance concerning thee in my supplications night and day,
field: 55001004
55
1
4
desiring greatly to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that with joy I may be filled,
field: 55001005
55
1
5
taking remembrance of the unfeigned faith that is in thee, that dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice, and I am persuaded that also in thee.
field: 55001006
55
1
6
For which cause I remind thee to stir up the gift of God that is in thee through the putting on of my hands,
field: 55001007
55
1
7
for God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind;
field: 55001008
55
1
8
therefore thou mayest not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but do thou suffer evil along with the good news according to the power of God,
field: 55001009
55
1
9
who did save us, and did call with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, that was given to us in Christ Jesus, before the times of the ages,
field: 55001010
55
1
10
and was made manifest now through the manifestation of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who indeed did abolish death, and did enlighten life and immortality through the good news,
field: 55001011
55
1
11
to which I was placed a preacher and an apostle, and a teacher of nations,
field: 55001012
55
1
12
for which cause also these things I suffer, but I am not ashamed, for I have known in whom I have believed, and have been persuaded that he is able that which I have committed to him to guard -- to that day.
field: 55001013
55
1
13
The pattern hold thou of sound words, which from me thou didst hear, in faith and love that `is' in Christ Jesus;
field: 55001014
55
1
14
the good thing committed guard thou through the Holy Spirit that is dwelling in us;
field: 55001015
55
1
15
thou hast known this, that they did turn from me -- all those in Asia, of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes;
field: 55001016
55
1
16
may the Lord give kindness to the house of Onesiphorus, because many times he did refresh me, and of my chain was not ashamed,
field: 55001017
55
1
17
but being in Rome, very diligently he sought me, and found;
field: 55001018
55
1
18
may the Lord give to him to find kindness from the Lord in that day; and how many things in Ephesus he did minister thou dost very well know.
field: 55002001
55
2
1
Thou, therefore, my child, be strong in the grace that `is' in Christ Jesus,
field: 55002002
55
2
2
and the things that thou didst hear from me through many witnesses, these things be committing to stedfast men, who shall be sufficient also others to teach;
field: 55002003
55
2
3
thou, therefore, suffer evil as a good soldier of Jesus Christ;
field: 55002004
55
2
4
no one serving as a soldier did entangle himself with the affairs of life, that him who did enlist him he may please;
field: 55002005
55
2
5
and if also any one may strive, he is not crowned, except he may strive lawfully;
field: 55002006
55
2
6
the labouring husbandman it behoveth first of the fruits to partake;
field: 55002007
55
2
7
be considering what things I say, for the Lord give to thee understanding in all things.
field: 55002008
55
2
8
Remember Jesus Christ, raised out of the dead, of the seed of David, according to my good news,
field: 55002009
55
2
9
in which I suffer evil -- unto bonds, as an evil-doer, but the word of God hath not been bound;
field: 55002010
55
2
10
because of this all things do I endure, because of the choice ones, that they also salvation may obtain that `is' in Christ Jesus, with glory age-during.
field: 55002011
55
2
11
Stedfast `is' the word: For if we died together -- we also shall live together;
field: 55002012
55
2
12
if we do endure together -- we shall also reign together; if we deny `him', he also shall deny us;
field: 55002013
55
2
13
if we are not stedfast, he remaineth stedfast; to deny himself he is not able.
field: 55002014
55
2
14
These things remind `them' of, testifying fully before the Lord -- not to strive about words to nothing profitable, but to the subversion of those hearing;
field: 55002015
55
2
15
be diligent to present thyself approved to God -- a workman irreproachable, rightly dividing the word of the truth;
field: 55002016
55
2
16
and the profane vain talkings stand aloof from, for to more impiety they will advance,
field: 55002017
55
2
17
and their word as a gangrene will have pasture, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus,
field: 55002018
55
2
18
who concerning the truth did swerve, saying the rising again to have already been, and do overthrow the faith of some;
field: 55002019
55
2
19
sure, nevertheless, hath the foundation of God stood, having this seal, `The Lord hath known those who are His,' and `Let him depart from unrighteousness -- every one who is naming the name of Christ.'
field: 55002020
55
2
20
And in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth, and some to honour, and some to dishonour:
field: 55002021
55
2
21
if, then, any one may cleanse himself from these, he shall be a vessel to honour, sanctified and profitable to the master -- to every good work having been prepared,
field: 55002022
55
2
22
and the youthful lusts flee thou, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those calling upon the Lord out of a pure heart;
field: 55002023
55
2
23
and the foolish and uninstructed questions be avoiding, having known that they beget strife,
field: 55002024
55
2
24
and a servant of the Lord it behoveth not to strive, but to be gentle unto all, apt to teach, patient under evil,
field: 55002025
55
2
25
in meekness instructing those opposing -- if perhaps God may give to them repentance to an acknowledging of the truth,
field: 55002026
55
2
26
and they may awake out of the devil's snare, having been caught by him at his will.
field: 55003001
55
3
1
And this know thou, that in the last days there shall come perilous times,
field: 55003002
55
3
2
for men shall be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, evil-speakers, to parents disobedient, unthankful, unkind,
field: 55003003
55
3
3
without natural affection, implacable, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, not lovers of those who are good,
field: 55003004
55
3
4
traitors, heady, lofty, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God,
field: 55003005
55
3
5
having a form of piety, and its power having denied; and from these be turning away,
field: 55003006
55
3
6
for of these there are those coming into the houses and leading captive the silly women, laden with sins, led away with desires manifold,
field: 55003007
55
3
7
always learning, and never to a knowledge of truth able to come,
field: 55003008
55
3
8
and, even as Jannes and Jambres stood against Moses, so also these do stand against the truth, men corrupted in mind, disapproved concerning the faith;
field: 55003009
55
3
9
but they shall not advance any further, for their folly shall be manifest to all, as theirs also did become.
field: 55003010
55
3
10
And thou -- thou hast followed after my teaching, manner of life, purpose, faith, long-suffering, love, endurance,
field: 55003011
55
3
11
the persecutions, the afflictions, that befel me in Antioch, in Iconium, in Lystra; what persecutions I endured, and out of all the Lord did deliver me,
field: 55003012
55
3
12
and all also who will to live piously in Christ Jesus shall be persecuted,
field: 55003013
55
3
13
and evil men and impostors shall advance to the worse, leading astray and being led astray.
field: 55003014
55
3
14
And thou -- be remaining in the things which thou didst learn and wast entrusted with, having known from whom thou didst learn,
field: 55003015
55
3
15
and because from a babe the Holy Writings thou hast known, which are able to make thee wise -- to salvation, through faith that `is' in Christ Jesus;
field: 55003016
55
3
16
every Writing `is' God-breathed, and profitable for teaching, for conviction, for setting aright, for instruction that `is' in righteousness,
field: 55003017
55
3
17
that the man of God may be fitted -- for every good work having been completed.
field: 55004001
55
4
1
I do fully testify, then, before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who is about to judge living and dead at his manifestation and his reign --
field: 55004002
55
4
2
preach the word; be earnest in season, out of season, convict, rebuke, exhort, in all long-suffering and teaching,
field: 55004003
55
4
3
for there shall be a season when the sound teaching they will not suffer, but according to their own desires to themselves they shall heap up teachers -- itching in the hearing,
field: 55004004
55
4
4
and indeed, from the truth the hearing they shall turn away, and to the fables they shall be turned aside.
field: 55004005
55
4
5
And thou -- watch in all things; suffer evil; do the work of one proclaiming good news; of thy ministration make full assurance,
field: 55004006

for I am already being poured out, and the time of my release hath arrived;

henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of the righteousness that the Lord -- the Righteous Judge -- shall give to me in that day, and not only to me, but also to all those loving his manifestation.

Be diligent to come unto me quickly,

Lukas only is with me; Markus having taken, bring with thyself, for he is profitable to me for ministration;
field: 55004012

and Tychicus I sent to Ephesus;

Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil; may the Lord repay to him according to his works,

of whom also do thou beware, for greatly hath he stood against our words;
field: 55004016
55
4
16
in my first defence no one stood with me, but all forsook me, (may it not be reckoned to them!)
field: 55004017
55
4
17
and the Lord stood by me, and did strengthen me, that through me the preaching might be fully assured, and all the nations might hear, and I was freed out of the mouth of a lion,
field: 55004018
55
4
18
and the Lord shall free me from every evil work, and shall save `me' -- to his heavenly kingdom; to whom `is' the glory to the ages of the ages! Amen.

(and He manifested in proper times His word,) in preaching, which I was entrusted with, according to a charge of God our Saviour,

For this cause left I thee in Crete, that the things lacking thou mayest arrange, and mayest set down in every city elders, as I did appoint to thee;

6
if any one is blameless, of one wife a husband, having children stedfast, not under accusation of riotous living or insubordinate --
field: 56001007
56

7
for it behoveth the overseer to be blameless, as God's steward, not self-pleased, nor irascible, not given to wine, not a striker, not given to filthy lucre;
field: 56001008
56
1
8
but a lover of strangers, a lover of good men, sober-minded, righteous, kind, self-controlled,
field: 56001009
56
1
9
holding -- according to the teaching -- to the stedfast word, that he may be able also to exhort in the sound teaching, and the gainsayers to convict;
field: 56001010
56
1
10
for there are many both insubordinate, vain-talkers, and mind-deceivers -- especially they of the circumcision --
field: 56001011

not giving heed to Jewish fables and commands of men, turning themselves away from the truth;

all things, indeed, `are' pure to the pure, and to the defiled and unstedfast `is' nothing pure, but of them defiled `are' even the mind and the conscience;

aged women, in like manner, in deportment as doth become sacred persons, not false accusers, to much wine not enslaved, of good things teachers,

sober, pure, keepers of `their own' houses, good, subject to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be evil spoken of.

discourse sound, irreprehensible, that he who is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having nothing evil to say concerning you.

For the saving grace of God was manifested to all men,

waiting for the blessed hope and manifestation of the glory of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ,

who did give himself for us, that he might ransom us from all lawlessness, and might purify to himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works;

Remind them to be subject to principalities and authorities, to obey rule, unto every good work to be ready,

of no one to speak evil, not to be quarrelsome -- gentle, showing all meekness to all men,
field: 56003003

for we were once -- also we -- thoughtless, disobedient, led astray, serving desires and pleasures manifold, in malice and envy living, odious -- hating one another;

56

4
and when the kindness and the love to men of God our Saviour did appear
field: 56003005
56
3
5
(not by works that `are' in righteousness that we did but according to His kindness,) He did save us, through a bathing of regeneration, and a renewing of the Holy Spirit,
field: 56003006
56
3
6
which He poured upon us richly, through Jesus Christ our Saviour,
field: 56003007

Stedfast `is' the word; and concerning these things I counsel thee to affirm fully, that they may be thoughtful, to be leading in good works -- who have believed God; these are the good and profitable things to men,

Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!

I give thanks to my God, always making mention of thee in my prayers,
field: 57001005
57
1
5
hearing of thy love and faith that thou hast unto the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints,
field: 57001006
57
1
6
that the fellowship of thy faith may become working in the full knowledge of every good thing that `is' in you toward Christ Jesus;

for we have much joy and comfort in thy love, because the bowels of the saints have been refreshed through thee, brother.

8
Wherefore, having in Christ much boldness to command thee that which is fit --
field: 57001009
57
1
9
because of the love I rather entreat, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ;
field: 57001010
57
1
10
I entreat thee concerning my child -- whom I did beget in my bonds -- Onesimus,
field: 57001011
57
1
11
who once was to thee unprofitable, and now is profitable to me and to thee,
field: 57001012
57
1
12
whom I did send again, and thou him (that is, my own bowels) receive,
field: 57001013
57
1
13
whom I did wish to retain to myself, that in thy behalf he might minister to me in the bonds of the good news,
field: 57001014
57
1
14
and apart from thy mind I willed to do nothing, that as of necessity thy good deed may not be, but of willingness,
field: 57001015
57
1
15
for perhaps because of this he did depart for an hour, that age-duringly thou mayest have him,
field: 57001016
57
1
16
no more as a servant, but above a servant -- a brother beloved, especially to me, and how much more to thee, both in the flesh and in the Lord!
field: 57001017
57
1
17
If, then, with me thou hast fellowship, receive him as me,
field: 57001018
57
1
18
and if he did hurt to thee, or doth owe anything, this to me be reckoning;
field: 57001019
57
1
19
I, Paul did write with my hand, I -- I will repay; that I may not say that also thyself, besides, to me thou dost owe.
field: 57001020

20
Yes, brother, may I have profit of thee in the Lord; refresh my bowels in the Lord;
field: 57001021
57
1
21
having been confident in thy obedience I did write to thee, having known that also above what I may say thou wilt do;
field: 57001022
57
1
22
and at the same time also prepare for me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted to you.

In many parts, and many ways, God of old having spoken to the fathers in the prophets,
field: 58001002
58
1
2
in these last days did speak to us in a Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He did make the ages;
field: 58001003
58
1
3
who being the brightness of the glory, and the impress of His subsistence, bearing up also the all things by the saying of his might -- through himself having made a cleansing of our sins, sat down at the right hand of the greatness in the highest,
field: 58001004
58
1
4
having become so much better than the messengers, as he did inherit a more excellent name than they.
field: 58001005
58
1
5
For to which of the messengers said He ever, `My Son thou art -- I to-day have begotten thee?' and again, `I will be to him for a father, and he shall be to Me for a son?'
field: 58001006
58
1
6
and when again He may bring in the first-born to the world, He saith, `And let them bow before him -- all messengers of God;'
field: 58001007
58
1
7
and unto the messengers, indeed, He saith, `Who is making His messengers spirits, and His ministers a flame of fire;'
field: 58001008
58
1
8
and unto the Son: `Thy throne, O God, `is' to the age of the age; a scepter of righteousness `is' the scepter of thy reign;
field: 58001009
58
1
9
thou didst love righteousness, and didst hate lawlessness; because of this did He anoint thee -- God, thy God -- with oil of gladness above thy partners;'
field: 58001010
58
1
10
and, `Thou, at the beginning, Lord, the earth didst found, and a work of thy hands are the heavens;
field: 58001011
58
1
11
these shall perish, and Thou dost remain, and all, as a garment, shall become old,
field: 58001012
58
1
12
and as a mantle Thou shall roll them together, and they shall be changed, and Thou art the same, and Thy years shall not fail.'
field: 58001013
58
1
13
And unto which of the messengers said He ever, `Sit at My right hand, till I may make thine enemies thy footstool?'
field: 58001014
58
1
14
are they not all spirits of service -- for ministration being sent forth because of those about to inherit salvation?
field: 58002001
58
2
1
Because of this it behoveth `us' more abundantly to take heed to the things heard, lest we may glide aside,
field: 58002002
58
2
2
for if the word being spoken through messengers did become stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience did receive a just recompense,
field: 58002003
58
2
3
how shall we escape, having neglected so great salvation? which a beginning receiving -- to be spoken through the Lord -- by those having heard was confirmed to us,
field: 58002004
58
2
4
God also bearing joint-witness both with signs and wonders, and manifold powers, and distributions of the Holy Spirit, according to His will.
field: 58002005
58
2
5
For not to messengers did He subject the coming world, concerning which we speak,
field: 58002006
58
2
6
and one in a certain place did testify fully, saying, `What is man, that Thou art mindful of him, or a son of man, that Thou dost look after him?
field: 58002007
58
2
7
Thou didst make him some little less than messengers, with glory and honour Thou didst crown him, and didst set him over the works of Thy hands,
field: 58002008
58
2
8
all things Thou didst put in subjection under his feet,' for in the subjecting to him the all things, nothing did He leave to him unsubjected, and now not yet do we see the all things subjected to him,
field: 58002009
58
2
9
and him who was made some little less than messengers we see -- Jesus -- because of the suffering of the death, with glory and honour having been crowned, that by the grace of God for every one he might taste of death.
field: 58002010
58
2
10
For it was becoming to Him, because of whom `are' the all things, and through whom `are' the all things, many sons to glory bringing, the author of their salvation through sufferings to make perfect,
field: 58002011
58
2
11
for both he who is sanctifying and those sanctified `are' all of one, for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
field: 58002012
58
2
12
saying, `I will declare Thy name to my brethren, in the midst of an assembly I will sing praise to Thee;' and again, `I will be trusting on Him;'
field: 58002013
58
2
13
and again, `Behold I and the children that God did give to me.'
field: 58002014
58
2
14
Seeing, then, the children have partaken of flesh and blood, he himself also in like manner did take part of the same, that through death he might destroy him having the power of death -- that is, the devil --
field: 58002015
58
2
15
and might deliver those, whoever, with fear of death, throughout all their life, were subjects of bondage,
field: 58002016
58
2
16
for, doubtless, of messengers it doth not lay hold, but of seed of Abraham it layeth hold,
field: 58002017
58
2
17
wherefore it did behove him in all things to be made like to the brethren, that he might become a kind and stedfast chief-priest in the things with God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people,
field: 58002018
58
2
18
for in that he suffered, himself being tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.
field: 58003001
58
3
1
Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the apostle and chief priest of our profession, Christ Jesus,
field: 58003002
58
3
2
being stedfast to Him who did appoint him, as also Moses in all his house,
field: 58003003
58
3
3
for of more glory than Moses hath this one been counted worthy, inasmuch as more honour than the house hath he who doth build it,
field: 58003004
58
3
4
for every house is builded by some one, and He who the all things did build `is' God,
field: 58003005
58
3
5
and Moses indeed `was' stedfast in all his house, as an attendant, for a testimony of those things that were to be spoken,
field: 58003006
58
3
6
and Christ, as a Son over his house, whose house are we, if the boldness and the rejoicing of the hope unto the end we hold fast.
field: 58003007
58
3
7
Wherefore, (as the Holy Spirit saith, `To-day, if His voice ye may hear --
field: 58003008
58
3
8
ye may not harden your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of the temptation in the wilderness,
field: 58003009
58
3
9
in which tempt Me did your fathers, they did prove Me, and saw My works forty years;
field: 58003010
58
3
10
wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, Always do they go astray in heart, and these have not known My ways;
field: 58003011
58
3
11
so I sware in My anger, If they shall enter into My rest -- !')
field: 58003012
58
3
12
See, brethren, lest there shall be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in the falling away from the living God,
field: 58003013
58
3
13
but exhort ye one another every day, while the To-day is called, that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of the sin,
field: 58003014
58
3
14
for partakers we have become of the Christ, if the beginning of the confidence unto the end we may hold fast,
field: 58003015
58
3
15
in its being said, `To-day, if His voice ye may hear, ye may not harden your hearts, as in the provocation,'
field: 58003016
58
3
16
for certain having heard did provoke, but not all who did come out of Egypt through Moses;
field: 58003017
58
3
17
but with whom was He grieved forty years? was it not with those who did sin, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness?
field: 58003018
58
3
18
and to whom did He swear that they shall not enter into His rest, except to those who did not believe? --
field: 58003019
58
3
19
and we see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief.
field: 58004001
58
4
1
We may fear, then, lest a promise being left of entering into His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short,
field: 58004002
58
4
2
for we also are having good news proclaimed, even as they, but the word heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard,
field: 58004003
58
4
3
for we do enter into the rest -- we who did believe, as He said, `So I sware in My anger, If they shall enter into My rest -- ;' and yet the works were done from the foundation of the world,
field: 58004004
58
4
4
for He spake in a certain place concerning the seventh `day' thus: `And God did rest in the seventh day from all His works;'
field: 58004005
58
4
5
and in this `place' again, `If they shall enter into My rest -- ;'
field: 58004006
58
4
6
since then, it remaineth for certain to enter into it, and those who did first hear good news entered not in because of unbelief --
field: 58004007
58
4
7
again He doth limit a certain day, `To-day,' (in David saying, after so long a time,) as it hath been said, `To-day, if His voice ye may hear, ye may not harden your hearts,'
field: 58004008
58
4
8
for if Joshua had given them rest, He would not concerning another day have spoken after these things;
field: 58004009
58
4
9
there doth remain, then, a sabbatic rest to the people of God,
field: 58004010
58
4
10
for he who did enter into his rest, he also rested from his works, as God from His own.
field: 58004011
58
4
11
May we be diligent, then, to enter into that rest, that no one in the same example of the unbelief may fall,
field: 58004012
58
4
12
for the reckoning of God is living, and working, and sharp above every two-edged sword, and piercing unto the dividing asunder both of soul and spirit, of joints also and marrow, and a discerner of thoughts and intents of the heart;
field: 58004013
58
4
13
and there is not a created thing not manifest before Him, but all things `are' naked and open to His eyes -- with whom is our reckoning.
field: 58004014
58
4
14
Having, then, a great chief priest passed through the heavens -- Jesus the Son of God -- may we hold fast the profession,
field: 58004015
58
4
15
for we have not a chief priest unable to sympathise with our infirmities, but `one' tempted in all things in like manner -- apart from sin;
field: 58004016
58
4
16
we may come near, then, with freedom, to the throne of the grace, that we may receive kindness, and find grace -- for seasonable help.
field: 58005001
58
5
1
For every chief priest -- out of men taken -- in behalf of men is set in things `pertaining' to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins,
field: 58005002
58
5
2
able to be gentle to those ignorant and going astray, since himself also is compassed with infirmity;
field: 58005003
58
5
3
and because of this infirmity he ought, as for the people, so also for himself to offer for sins;
field: 58005004
58
5
4
and no one to himself doth take the honour, but he who is called by God, as also Aaron:
field: 58005005
58
5
5
so also the Christ did not glorify himself to become chief priest, but He who spake unto him: `My Son thou art, I to-day have begotten thee;'
field: 58005006
58
5
6
as also in another `place' He saith, `Thou `art' a priest -- to the age, according to the order of Melchisedek;'
field: 58005007
58
5
7
who in the days of his flesh both prayers and supplications unto Him who was able to save him from death -- with strong crying and tears -- having offered up, and having been heard in respect to that which he feared,
field: 58005008
58
5
8
through being a Son, did learn by the things which he suffered -- the obedience,
field: 58005009
58
5
9
and having been made perfect, he did become to all those obeying him a cause of salvation age-during,
field: 58005010
58
5
10
having been addressed by God a chief priest, according to the order of Melchisedek,
field: 58005011
58
5
11
concerning whom we have much discourse and of hard explanation to say, since ye have become dull of hearing,
field: 58005012
58
5
12
for even owing to be teachers, because of the time, again ye have need that one teach you what `are' the elements of the beginning of the oracles of God, and ye have become having need of milk, and not of strong food,
field: 58005013
58
5
13
for every one who is partaking of milk `is' unskilled in the word of righteousness -- for he is an infant,
field: 58005014
58
5
14
and of perfect men is the strong food, who because of the use are having the senses exercised, unto the discernment both of good and of evil.
field: 58006001
58
6
1
Wherefore, having left the word of the beginning of the Christ, unto the perfection we may advance, not again a foundation laying of reformation from dead works, and of faith on God,
field: 58006002
58
6
2
of the teaching of baptisms, of laying on also of hands, of rising again also of the dead, and of judgment age-during,
field: 58006003
58
6
3
and this we will do, if God may permit,
field: 58006004
58
6
4
for `it is' impossible for those once enlightened, having tasted also of the heavenly gift, and partakers having became of the Holy Spirit,
field: 58006005
58
6
5
and did taste the good saying of God, the powers also of the coming age,
field: 58006006
58
6
6
and having fallen away, again to renew `them' to reformation, having crucified again to themselves the Son of God, and exposed to public shame.
field: 58006007
58
6
7
For earth, that is drinking in the rain many times coming upon it, and is bringing forth herbs fit for those because of whom also it is dressed, doth partake of blessing from God,
field: 58006008
58
6
8
and that which is bearing thorns and briers `is' disapproved of, and nigh to cursing, whose end `is' for burning;
field: 58006009
58
6
9
and we are persuaded, concerning you, beloved, the things that are better, and accompanying salvation, though even thus we speak,
field: 58006010
58
6
10
for God is not unrighteous to forget your work, and the labour of the love, that ye shewed to His name, having ministered to the saints and ministering;
field: 58006011
58
6
11
and we desire each one of you the same diligence to shew, unto the full assurance of the hope unto the end,
field: 58006012
58
6
12
that ye may not become slothful, but followers of those who through faith and patient endurance are inheriting the promises.
field: 58006013
58
6
13
For to Abraham God, having made promise, seeing He was able to swear by no greater, did swear by Himself,
field: 58006014
58
6
14
saying, `Blessing indeed I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee;'
field: 58006015
58
6
15
and so, having patiently endured, he did obtain the promise;
field: 58006016
58
6
16
for men indeed do swear by the greater, and an end of all controversy to them for confirmation `is' the oath,
field: 58006017
58
6
17
in which God, more abundantly willing to shew to the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, did interpose by an oath,
field: 58006018
58
6
18
that through two immutable things, in which `it is' impossible for God to lie, a strong comfort we may have who did flee for refuge to lay hold on the hope set before `us',
field: 58006019
58
6
19
which we have, as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and entering into that within the vail,
field: 58006020
58
6
20
whither a forerunner for us did enter -- Jesus, after the order of Melchisedek chief priest having become -- to the age.
field: 58007001
58
7
1
For this Melchisedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who did meet Abraham turning back from the smiting of the kings, and did bless him,
field: 58007002
58
7
2
to whom also a tenth of all did Abraham divide, (first, indeed, being interpreted, `King of righteousness,' and then also, King of Salem, which is, King of Peace,)
field: 58007003
58
7
3
without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, and being made like to the Son of God, doth remain a priest continually.
field: 58007004
58
7
4
And see how great this one `is', to whom also a tenth Abraham the patriarch did give out of the best of the spoils,
field: 58007005
58
7
5
and those, indeed, out of the sons of Levi receiving the priesthood, a command have to take tithes from the people according to the law, that is, their brethren, even though they came forth out of the loins of Abraham;
field: 58007006
58
7
6
and he who was not reckoned by genealogy of them, received tithes from Abraham, and him having the promises he hath blessed,
field: 58007007
58
7
7
and apart from all controversy, the less by the better is blessed --
field: 58007008
58
7
8
and here, indeed, men who die do receive tithes, and there `he', who is testified to that he was living,
field: 58007009
58
7
9
and so to speak, through Abraham even Levi who is receiving tithes, hath paid tithes,
field: 58007010
58
7
10
for he was yet in the loins of the father when Melchisedek met him.
field: 58007011
58
7
11
If indeed, then, perfection were through the Levitical priesthood -- for the people under it had received law -- what further need, according to the order of Melchisedek, for another priest to arise, and not to be called according to the order of Aaron?
field: 58007012
58
7
12
for the priesthood being changed, of necessity also, of the law a change doth come,
field: 58007013
58
7
13
for he of whom these things are said in another tribe hath had part, of whom no one gave attendance at the altar,
field: 58007014
58
7
14
for `it is' evident that out of Judah hath arisen our Lord, in regard to which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
field: 58007015
58
7
15
And it is yet more abundantly most evident, if according to the similitude of Melchisedek there doth arise another priest,
field: 58007016
58
7
16
who came not according to the law of a fleshly command, but according to the power of an endless life,
field: 58007017
58
7
17
for He doth testify -- `Thou `art' a priest -- to the age, according to the order of Melchisedek;'
field: 58007018
58
7
18
for a disannulling indeed doth come of the command going before because of its weakness, and unprofitableness,
field: 58007019
58
7
19
(for nothing did the law perfect) and the bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw nigh to God.
field: 58007020
58
7
20
And inasmuch as `it is' not apart from oath, (for those indeed apart from oath are become priests,
field: 58007021
58
7
21
and he with an oath through Him who is saying unto him, `The Lord sware, and will not repent, Thou `art' a priest -- to the age, according to the order of Melchisedek;')
field: 58007022
58
7
22
by so much of a better covenant hath Jesus become surety,
field: 58007023
58
7
23
and those indeed are many who have become priests, because by death they are hindered from remaining;
field: 58007024
58
7
24
and he, because of his remaining -- to the age, hath the priesthood not transient,
field: 58007025
58
7
25
whence also he is able to save to the very end, those coming through him unto God -- ever living to make intercession for them.
field: 58007026
58
7
26
For such a chief priest did become us -- kind, harmless, undefiled, separate from the sinners, and become higher than the heavens,
field: 58007027
58
7
27
who hath no necessity daily, as the chief priests, first for his own sins to offer up sacrifice, then for those of the people; for this he did once, having offered up himself;
field: 58007028
58
7
28
for the law doth appoint men chief priests, having infirmity, but the word of the oath that `is' after the law `appointeth' the Son -- to the age having been perfected.
field: 58008001
58
8
1
And the sum concerning the things spoken of `is': we have such a chief priest, who did sit down at the right hand of the throne of the greatness in the heavens,
field: 58008002
58
8
2
of the holy places a servant, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord did set up, and not man,
field: 58008003
58
8
3
for every chief priest to offer both gifts and sacrifices is appointed, whence `it is' necessary for this one to have also something that he may offer;
field: 58008004
58
8
4
for if, indeed, he were upon earth, he would not be a priest -- (there being the priests who are offering according to the law, the gifts,
field: 58008005
58
8
5
who unto an example and shadow do serve of the heavenly things, as Moses hath been divinely warned, being about to construct the tabernacle, for `See (saith He) thou mayest make all things according to the pattern that was shewn to thee in the mount;') --
field: 58008006
58
8
6
and now he hath obtained a more excellent service, how much also of a better covenant is he mediator, which on better promises hath been sanctioned,
field: 58008007
58
8
7
for if that first were faultless, a place would not have been sought for a second.
field: 58008008
58
8
8
For finding fault, He saith to them, `Lo, days come, saith the Lord, and I will complete with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah, a new covenant,
field: 58008009
58
8
9
not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers, in the day of My taking `them' by their hand, to bring them out of the land of Egypt -- because they did not remain in My covenant, and I did not regard them, saith the Lord, --
field: 58008010
58
8
10
because this `is' the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel, after those days, saith the Lord, giving My laws into their mind, and upon their hearts I will write them, and I will be to them for a God, and they shall be to Me for a people;
field: 58008011
58
8
11
and they shall not teach each his neighbour, and each his brother, saying, Know thou the Lord, because they shall all know Me from the small one of them unto the great one of them,
field: 58008012
58
8
12
because I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawlessnesses I will remember no more;' --
field: 58008013
58
8
13
in the saying `new,' He hath made the first old, and what doth become obsolete and is old `is' nigh disappearing.
field: 58009001
58
9
1
It had, indeed, then (even the first tabernacle) ordinances of service, also a worldly sanctuary,
field: 58009002
58
9
2
for a tabernacle was prepared, the first, in which was both the lamp-stand, and the table, and the bread of the presence -- which is called `Holy;'
field: 58009003
58
9
3
and after the second vail a tabernacle that is called `Holy of holies,'
field: 58009004
58
9
4
having a golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid all round about with gold, in which `is' the golden pot having the manna, and the rod of Aaron that budded, and the tables of the covenant,
field: 58009005
58
9
5
and over it cherubim of the glory, overshadowing the mercy-seat, concerning which we are not now to speak particularly.
field: 58009006
58
9
6
And these things having been thus prepared, into the first tabernacle, indeed, at all times the priests do go in, performing the services,
field: 58009007
58
9
7
and into the second, once in the year, only the chief priest, not apart from blood, which he doth offer for himself and the errors of the people,
field: 58009008
58
9
8
the Holy Spirit this evidencing that not yet hath been manifested the way of the holy `places', the first tabernacle having yet a standing;
field: 58009009
58
9
9
which `is' a simile in regard to the present time, in which both gifts and sacrifices are offered, which are not able, in regard to conscience, to make perfect him who is serving,
field: 58009010
58
9
10
only in victuals, and drinks, and different baptisms, and fleshly ordinances -- till the time of reformation imposed upon `them'.
field: 58009011
58
9
11
And Christ being come, chief priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands -- that is, not of this creation --
field: 58009012
58
9
12
neither through blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, did enter in once into the holy places, age-during redemption having obtained;
field: 58009013
58
9
13
for if the blood of bulls, and goats, and ashes of an heifer, sprinkling those defiled, doth sanctify to the purifying of the flesh,
field: 58009014
58
9
14
how much more shall the blood of the Christ (who through the age-during Spirit did offer himself unblemished to God) purify your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
field: 58009015
58
9
15
And because of this, of a new covenant he is mediator, that, death having come, for redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, those called may receive the promise of the age-during inheritance,
field: 58009016
58
9
16
for where a covenant `is', the death of the covenant-victim to come in is necessary,
field: 58009017
58
9
17
for a covenant over dead victims `is' stedfast, since it is no force at all when the covenant-victim liveth,
field: 58009018
58
9
18
whence not even the first apart from blood hath been initiated,
field: 58009019
58
9
19
for every command having been spoken, according to law, by Moses, to all the people, having taken the blood of the calves and goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, he both the book itself and all the people did sprinkle,
field: 58009020
58
9
20
saying, `This `is' the blood of the covenant that God enjoined unto you,'
field: 58009021
58
9
21
and both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the service with blood in like manner he did sprinkle,
field: 58009022
58
9
22
and with blood almost all things are purified according to the law, and apart from blood-shedding forgiveness doth not come.
field: 58009023
58
9
23
`It is' necessary, therefore, the pattern indeed of the things in the heavens to be purified with these, and the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these;
field: 58009024
58
9
24
for not into holy places made with hands did the Christ enter -- figures of the true -- but into the heaven itself, now to be manifested in the presence of God for us;
field: 58009025
58
9
25
nor that he may many times offer himself, even as the chief priest doth enter into the holy places every year with blood of others;
field: 58009026
58
9
26
since it had behoved him many times to suffer from the foundation of the world, but now once, at the full end of the ages, for putting away of sin through his sacrifice, he hath been manifested;
field: 58009027
58
9
27
and as it is laid up to men once to die, and after this -- judgment,
field: 58009028
58
9
28
so also the Christ, once having been offered to bear the sins of many, a second time, apart from a sin-offering, shall appear, to those waiting for him -- to salvation!
field: 58010001
58
10
1
For the law having a shadow of the coming good things -- not the very image of the matters, every year, by the same sacrifices that they offer continually, is never able to make perfect those coming near,
field: 58010002
58
10
2
since, would they not have ceased to be offered, because of those serving having no more conscience of sins, having once been purified?
field: 58010003
58
10
3
but in those `sacrifices' is a remembrance of sins every year,
field: 58010004
58
10
4
for it is impossible for blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
field: 58010005
58
10
5
Wherefore, coming into the world, he saith, `Sacrifice and offering Thou didst not will, and a body Thou didst prepare for me,
field: 58010006
58
10
6
in burnt-offerings, and concerning sin-offerings, Thou didst not delight,
field: 58010007
58
10
7
then I said, Lo, I come, (in a volume of the book it hath been written concerning me,) to do, O God, Thy will;'
field: 58010008
58
10
8
saying above -- `Sacrifice, and offering, and burnt-offerings, and concerning sin-offering Thou didst not will, nor delight in,' -- which according to the law are offered --
field: 58010009
58
10
9
then he said, `Lo, I come to do, O God, Thy will;' he doth take away the first that the second he may establish;
field: 58010010
58
10
10
in the which will we are having been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once,
field: 58010011
58
10
11
and every priest, indeed, hath stood daily serving, and the same sacrifices many times offering, that are never able to take away sins.
field: 58010012
58
10
12
And He, for sin one sacrifice having offered -- to the end, did sit down on the right hand of God, --
field: 58010013
58
10
13
as to the rest, expecting till He may place his enemies `as' his footstool,
field: 58010014
58
10
14
for by one offering he hath perfected to the end those sanctified;
field: 58010015
58
10
15
and testify to us also doth the Holy Spirit, for after that He hath said before,
field: 58010016
58
10
16
`This `is' the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, giving My laws on their hearts, and upon their minds I will write them,'
field: 58010017
58
10
17
and `their sins and their lawlessness I will remember no more;'
field: 58010018
58
10
18
and where forgiveness of these `is', there is no more offering for sin.
field: 58010019
58
10
19
Having, therefore, brethren, boldness for the entrance into the holy places, in the blood of Jesus,
field: 58010020
58
10
20
which way he did initiate for us -- new and living, through the vail, that is, his flesh --
field: 58010021
58
10
21
and a high priest over the house of God,
field: 58010022
58
10
22
may we draw near with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, having the hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having the body bathed with pure water;
field: 58010023
58
10
23
may we hold fast the unwavering profession of the hope, (for faithful `is' He who did promise),
field: 58010024
58
10
24
and may we consider one another to provoke to love and to good works,
field: 58010025
58
10
25
not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as a custom of certain `is', but exhorting, and so much the more as ye see the day coming nigh.
field: 58010026
58
10
26
For we -- willfully sinning after the receiving the full knowledge of the truth -- no more for sins doth there remain a sacrifice,
field: 58010027
58
10
27
but a certain fearful looking for of judgment, and fiery zeal, about to devour the opposers;
field: 58010028
58
10
28
any one who did set at nought a law of Moses, apart from mercies, by two or three witnesses, doth die,
field: 58010029
58
10
29
of how much sorer punishment shall he be counted worthy who the Son of God did trample on, and the blood of the covenant did count a common thing, in which he was sanctified, and to the Spirit of the grace did despite?
field: 58010030
58
10
30
for we have known Him who is saying, `Vengeance `is' Mine, I will recompense, saith the Lord;' and again, `The Lord shall judge His people;' --
field: 58010031
58
10
31
fearful `is' the falling into the hands of a living God.
field: 58010032
58
10
32
And call to your remembrance the former days, in which, having been enlightened, ye did endure much conflict of sufferings,
field: 58010033
58
10
33
partly both with reproaches and tribulations being made spectacles, and partly having become partners of those so living,
field: 58010034
58
10
34
for also with my bonds ye sympathised, and the robbery of your goods with joy ye did receive, knowing that ye have in yourselves a better substance in the heavens, and an enduring one.
field: 58010035
58
10
35
Ye may not cast away, then, your boldness, which hath great recompense of reward,
field: 58010036
58
10
36
for of patience ye have need, that the will of God having done, ye may receive the promise,
field: 58010037
58
10
37
for yet a very very little, He who is coming will come, and will not tarry;
field: 58010038
58
10
38
and `the righteous by faith shall live,' and `if he may draw back, My soul hath no pleasure in him,'
field: 58010039
58
10
39
and we are not of those drawing back to destruction, but of those believing to a preserving of soul.
field: 58011001
58
11
1
And faith is of things hoped for a confidence, of matters not seen a conviction,
field: 58011002
58
11
2
for in this were the elders testified of;
field: 58011003
58
11
3
by faith we understand the ages to have been prepared by a saying of God, in regard to the things seen not having come out of things appearing;
field: 58011004
58
11
4
by faith a better sacrifice did Abel offer to God than Cain, through which he was testified to be righteous, God testifying of his gifts, and through it, he being dead, doth yet speak.
field: 58011005
58
11
5
By faith Enoch was translated -- not to see death, and was not found, because God did translate him; for before his translation he had been testified to -- that he had pleased God well,
field: 58011006
58
11
6
and apart from faith it is impossible to please well, for it behoveth him who is coming to God to believe that He is, and to those seeking Him He becometh a rewarder.
field: 58011007
58
11
7
By faith Noah, having been divinely warned concerning the things not yet seen, having feared, did prepare an ark to the salvation of his house, through which he did condemn the world, and of the righteousness according to faith he became heir.
field: 58011008
58
11
8
By faith Abraham, being called, did obey, to go forth to the place that he was about to receive for an inheritance, and he went forth, not knowing whither he doth go;
field: 58011009
58
11
9
by faith he did sojourn in the land of the promise as a strange country, in tabernacles having dwelt with Isaac and Jacob, fellow-heirs of the same promise,
field: 58011010
58
11
10
for he was looking for the city having the foundations, whose artificer and constructor `is' God.
field: 58011011
58
11
11
By faith also Sarah herself did receive power to conceive seed, and she bare after the time of life, seeing she did judge Him faithful who did promise;
field: 58011012
58
11
12
wherefore, also from one were begotten -- and that of one who had become dead -- as the stars of the heaven in multitude, and as sand that `is' by the sea-shore -- the innumerable.
field: 58011013
58
11
13
In faith died all these, not having received the promises, but from afar having seen them, and having been persuaded, and having saluted `them', and having confessed that strangers and sojourners they are upon the earth,
field: 58011014
58
11
14
for those saying such things make manifest that they seek a country;
field: 58011015
58
11
15
and if, indeed, they had been mindful of that from which they came forth, they might have had an opportunity to return,
field: 58011016
58
11
16
but now they long for a better, that is, an heavenly, wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for He did prepare for them a city.
field: 58011017
58
11
17
By faith Abraham hath offered up Isaac, being tried, and the only begotten he did offer up who did receive the promises,
field: 58011018
58
11
18
of whom it was said -- `In Isaac shall a seed be called to thee;'
field: 58011019
58
11
19
reckoning that even out of the dead God is able to raise up, whence also in a figure he did receive `him'.
field: 58011020
58
11
20
By faith, concerning coming things, Isaac did bless Jacob and Esau;
field: 58011021
58
11
21
by faith Jacob dying -- each of the sons of Joseph did bless, and did bow down upon the top of his staff;
field: 58011022
58
11
22
by faith, Joseph dying, concerning the outgoing of the sons of Israel did make mention, and concerning his bones did give command.
field: 58011023
58
11
23
By faith Moses, having been born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw the child comely, and were not afraid of the decree of the king;
field: 58011024
58
11
24
by faith Moses, having become great, did refuse to be called a son of the daughter of Pharaoh,
field: 58011025
58
11
25
having chosen rather to be afflicted with the people of God, than to have sin's pleasure for a season,
field: 58011026
58
11
26
greater wealth having reckoned the reproach of the Christ than the treasures in Egypt, for he did look to the recompense of reward;
field: 58011027
58
11
27
by faith he left Egypt behind, not having been afraid of the wrath of the king, for, as seeing the Invisible One -- he endured;
field: 58011028
58
11
28
by faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, that He who is destroying the first-born might not touch them.
field: 58011029
58
11
29
By faith they did pass through the Red Sea as through dry land, which the Egyptians having received a trial of, were swallowed up;
field: 58011030
58
11
30
by faith the walls of Jericho did fall, having been surrounded for seven days;
field: 58011031
58
11
31
by faith Rahab the harlot did not perish with those who disbelieved, having received the spies with peace.
field: 58011032
58
11
32
And what shall I yet say? for the time will fail me recounting about Gideon, Barak also, and Samson, and Jephthah, David also, and Samuel, and the prophets,
field: 58011033
58
11
33
who through faith did subdue kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped mouths of lions,
field: 58011034
58
11
34
quenched the power of fire, escaped the mouth of the sword, were made powerful out of infirmities, became strong in battle, caused to give way camps of the aliens.
field: 58011035
58
11
35
Women received by a rising again their dead, and others were tortured, not accepting the redemption, that a better rising again they might receive,
field: 58011036
58
11
36
and others of mockings and scourgings did receive trial, and yet of bonds and imprisonment;
field: 58011037
58
11
37
they were stoned, they were sawn asunder, they were tried; in the killing of the sword they died; they went about in sheepskins, in goatskins -- being destitute, afflicted, injuriously treated,
field: 58011038
58
11
38
of whom the world was not worthy; in deserts wandering, and `in' mountains, and `in' caves, and `in' the holes of the earth;
field: 58011039
58
11
39
and these all, having been testified to through the faith, did not receive the promise,
field: 58011040
58
11
40
God for us something better having provided, that apart from us they might not be made perfect.
field: 58012001
58
12
1
Therefore, we also having so great a cloud of witnesses set around us, every weight having put off, and the closely besetting sin, through endurance may we run the contest that is set before us,
field: 58012002
58
12
2
looking to the author and perfecter of faith -- Jesus, who, over-against the joy set before him -- did endure a cross, shame having despised, on the right hand also of the throne of God did sit down;
field: 58012003
58
12
3
for consider again him who endured such gainsaying from the sinners to himself, that ye may not be wearied in your souls -- being faint.
field: 58012004
58
12
4
Not yet unto blood did ye resist -- with the sin striving;
field: 58012005
58
12
5
and ye have forgotten the exhortation that doth speak fully with you as with sons, `My son, be not despising chastening of the Lord, nor be faint, being reproved by Him,
field: 58012006
58
12
6
for whom the Lord doth love He doth chasten, and He scourgeth every son whom He receiveth;'
field: 58012007
58
12
7
if chastening ye endure, as to sons God beareth Himself to you, for who is a son whom a father doth not chasten?
field: 58012008
58
12
8
and if ye are apart from chastening, of which all have become partakers, then bastards are ye, and not sons.
field: 58012009
58
12
9
Then, indeed, fathers of our flesh we have had, chastising `us', and we were reverencing `them'; shall we not much rather be subject to the Father of the spirits, and live?
field: 58012010
58
12
10
for they, indeed, for a few days, according to what seemed good to them, were chastening, but He for profit, to be partakers of His separation;
field: 58012011
58
12
11
and all chastening for the present, indeed, doth not seem to be of joy, but of sorrow, yet afterward the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those exercised through it -- it doth yield.
field: 58012012
58
12
12
Wherefore, the hanging-down hands and the loosened knees set ye up;
field: 58012013
58
12
13
and straight paths make for your feet, that that which is lame may not be turned aside, but rather be healed;
field: 58012014
58
12
14
peace pursue with all, and the separation, apart from which no one shall see the Lord,
field: 58012015
58
12
15
looking diligently over lest any one be failing of the grace of God, lest any root of bitterness springing up may give trouble, and through this many may be defiled;
field: 58012016
58
12
16
lest any one be a fornicator, or a profane person, as Esau, who in exchange for one morsel of food did sell his birthright,
field: 58012017
58
12
17
for ye know that also afterwards, wishing to inherit the blessing, he was disapproved of, for a place of reformation he found not, though with tears having sought it.
field: 58012018
58
12
18
For ye came not near to the mount touched and scorched with fire, and to blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
field: 58012019
58
12
19
and a sound of a trumpet, and a voice of sayings, which those having heard did entreat that a word might not be added to them,
field: 58012020
58
12
20
for they were not bearing that which is commanded, `And if a beast may touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or with an arrow shot through,'
field: 58012021
58
12
21
and, (so terrible was the sight,) Moses said, `I am fearful exceedingly, and trembling.'
field: 58012022
58
12
22
But, ye came to Mount Zion, and to a city of the living God, to the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of messengers,
field: 58012023
58
12
23
to the company and assembly of the first-born in heaven enrolled, and to God the judge of all, and to spirits of righteous men made perfect,
field: 58012024
58
12
24
and to a mediator of a new covenant -- Jesus, and to blood of sprinkling, speaking better things than that of Abel!
field: 58012025
58
12
25
See, may ye not refuse him who is speaking, for if those did not escape who refused him who upon earth was divinely speaking -- much less we who do turn away from him who `speaketh' from heaven,
field: 58012026
58
12
26
whose voice the earth shook then, and now hath he promised, saying, `Yet once -- I shake not only the earth, but also the heaven;'
field: 58012027
58
12
27
and this -- `Yet once' -- doth make evident the removal of the things shaken, as of things having been made, that the things not shaken may remain;
field: 58012028
58
12
28
wherefore, a kingdom that cannot be shaken receiving, may we have grace, through which we may serve God well-pleasingly, with reverence and religious fear;
field: 58012029
58
12
29
for also our God `is' a consuming fire.
field: 58013001
58
13
1
Let brotherly love remain;
field: 58013002
58
13
2
of the hospitality be not forgetful, for through this unawares certain did entertain messengers;
field: 58013003
58
13
3
be mindful of those in bonds, as having been bound with them, of those maltreated, as also yourselves being in the body;
field: 58013004
58
13
4
honourable `is' the marriage in all, and the bed undefiled, and whoremongers and adulterers God shall judge.
field: 58013005
58
13
5
Without covetousness the behaviour, being content with the things present, for He hath said, `No, I will not leave, no, nor forsake thee,'
field: 58013006
58
13
6
so that we do boldly say, `The Lord `is' to me a helper, and I will not fear what man shall do to me.'
field: 58013007
58
13
7
Be mindful of those leading you, who did speak to you the word of God, whose faith -- considering the issue of the behaviour -- be imitating,
field: 58013008
58
13
8
Jesus Christ yesterday and to-day the same, and to the ages;
field: 58013009
58
13
9
with teachings manifold and strange be not carried about, for `it is' good that by grace the heart be confirmed, not with meats, in which they who were occupied were not profited;
field: 58013010
58
13
10
we have an altar, of which to eat they have no authority who the tabernacle are serving,
field: 58013011
58
13
11
for of those beasts whose blood is brought for sin into the holy places through the chief priest -- of these the bodies are burned without the camp.
field: 58013012
58
13
12
Wherefore, also Jesus -- that he might sanctify through `his' own blood the people -- without the gate did suffer;
field: 58013013
58
13
13
now, then, may we go forth unto him without the camp, his reproach bearing;
field: 58013014
58
13
14
for we have not here an abiding city, but the coming one we seek;
field: 58013015
58
13
15
through him, then, we may offer up a sacrifice of praise always to God, that is, the fruit of lips, giving thanks to His name;
field: 58013016
58
13
16
and of doing good, and of fellowship, be not forgetful, for with such sacrifices God is well-pleased.
field: 58013017
58
13
17
Be obedient to those leading you, and be subject, for these do watch for your souls, as about to give account, that with joy they may do this, and not sighing, for this `is' unprofitable to you.
field: 58013018
58
13
18
Pray for us, for we trust that we have a good conscience, in all things willing to behave well,
field: 58013019
58
13
19
and more abundantly do I call upon `you' to do this, that more quickly I may be restored to you.
field: 58013020
58
13
20
And the God of the peace, who did bring up out of the dead the great shepherd of the sheep -- in the blood of an age-during covenant -- our Lord Jesus,
field: 58013021
58
13
21
make you perfect in every good work to do His will, doing in you that which is well-pleasing before Him, through Jesus Christ, to whom `is' the glory -- to the ages of the ages! Amen.
field: 58013022
58
13
22
And I entreat you, brethren, suffer the word of the exhortation, for also through few words I have written to you.
field: 58013023
58
13
23
Know ye that the brother Timotheus is released, with whom, if he may come more shortly, I will see you.
field: 58013024
58
13
24
Salute all those leading you, and all the saints; salute you doth those from Italy:
field: 58013025
58
13
25
the grace `is' with you all! Amen.
field: 59001001

James, of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ a servant, to the Twelve Tribes who are in the dispersion: Hail!
field: 59001002
59
1
2
All joy count `it', my brethren, when ye may fall into temptations manifold;
field: 59001003
59
1
3
knowing that the proof of your faith doth work endurance,
field: 59001004
59
1
4
and let the endurance have a perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire -- in nothing lacking;
field: 59001005
59
1
5
and if any of you do lack wisdom, let him ask from God, who is giving to all liberally, and not reproaching, and it shall be given to him;
field: 59001006
59
1
6
and let him ask in faith, nothing doubting, for he who is doubting hath been like a wave of the sea, driven by wind and tossed,
field: 59001007
59
1
7
for let not that man suppose that he shall receive anything from the Lord --
field: 59001008
59
1
8
a two-souled man `is' unstable in all his ways.
field: 59001009
59
1
9
And let the brother who is low rejoice in his exaltation,
field: 59001010
59
1
10
and the rich in his becoming low, because as a flower of grass he shall pass away;
field: 59001011
59
1
11
for the sun did rise with the burning heat, and did wither the grass, and the flower of it fell, and the grace of its appearance did perish, so also the rich in his way shall fade away!
field: 59001012
59
1
12
Happy the man who doth endure temptation, because, becoming approved, he shall receive the crown of the life, which the Lord did promise to those loving Him.
field: 59001013
59
1
13
Let no one say, being tempted -- `From God I am tempted,' for God is not tempted of evil, and Himself doth tempt no one,
field: 59001014
59
1
14
and each one is tempted, by his own desires being led away and enticed,
field: 59001015
59
1
15
afterward the desire having conceived, doth give birth to sin, and the sin having been perfected, doth bring forth death.
field: 59001016
59
1
16
Be not led astray, my brethren beloved;
field: 59001017
59
1
17
every good giving, and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the lights, with whom is no variation, or shadow of turning;
field: 59001018
59
1
18
having counselled, He did beget us with a word of truth, for our being a certain first-fruit of His creatures.
field: 59001019
59
1
19
So then, my brethren beloved, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger,
field: 59001020
59
1
20
for the wrath of a man the righteousness of God doth not work;
field: 59001021
59
1
21
wherefore having put aside all filthiness and superabundance of evil, in meekness be receiving the engrafted word, that is able to save your souls;
field: 59001022
59
1
22
and become ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves,
field: 59001023
59
1
23
because, if any one is a hearer of the word and not a doer, this one hath been like to a man viewing his natural face in a mirror,
field: 59001024
59
1
24
for he did view himself, and hath gone away, and immediately he did forget of what kind he was;
field: 59001025
59
1
25
and he who did look into the perfect law -- that of liberty, and did continue there, this one -- not a forgetful hearer becoming, but a doer of work -- this one shall be happy in his doing.
field: 59001026
59
1
26
If any one doth think to be religious among you, not bridling his tongue, but deceiving his heart, of this one vain `is' the religion;
field: 59001027
59
1
27
religion pure and undefiled with the God and Father is this, to look after orphans and widows in their tribulation -- unspotted to keep himself from the world.
field: 59002001
59
2
1
My brethren, hold not, in respect of persons, the faith of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ,
field: 59002002
59
2
2
for if there may come into your synagogue a man with gold ring, in gay raiment, and there may come in also a poor man in vile raiment,
field: 59002003
59
2
3
and ye may look upon him bearing the gay raiment, and may say to him, `Thou -- sit thou here well,' and to the poor man may say, `Thou -- stand thou there, or, Sit thou here under my footstool,' --
field: 59002004
59
2
4
ye did not judge fully in yourselves, and did become ill-reasoning judges.
field: 59002005
59
2
5
Hearken, my brethren beloved, did not God choose the poor of this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the reign that He promised to those loving Him?
field: 59002006
59
2
6
and ye did dishonour the poor one; do not the rich oppress you and themselves draw you to judgment-seats;
field: 59002007
59
2
7
do they not themselves speak evil of the good name that was called upon you?
field: 59002008
59
2
8
If, indeed, royal law ye complete, according to the Writing, `Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself,' -- ye do well;
field: 59002009
59
2
9
and if ye accept persons, sin ye do work, being convicted by the law as transgressors;
field: 59002010
59
2
10
for whoever the whole law shall keep, and shall stumble in one `point', he hath become guilty of all;
field: 59002011
59
2
11
for He who is saying, `Thou mayest not commit adultery,' said also, `Thou mayest do no murder;' and if thou shalt not commit adultery, and shalt commit murder, thou hast become a transgressor of law;
field: 59002012
59
2
12
so speak ye and so do, as about by a law of liberty to be judged,
field: 59002013
59
2
13
for the judgment without kindness `is' to him not having done kindness, and exult doth kindness over judgment.
field: 59002014
59
2
14
What `is' the profit, my brethren, if faith, any one may speak of having, and works he may not have? is that faith able to save him?
field: 59002015
59
2
15
and if a brother or sister may be naked, and may be destitute of the daily food,
field: 59002016
59
2
16
and any one of you may say to them, `Depart ye in peace, be warmed, and be filled,' and may not give to them the things needful for the body, what `is' the profit?
field: 59002017
59
2
17
so also the faith, if it may not have works, is dead by itself.
field: 59002018
59

18
But say may some one, Thou hast faith, and I have works, shew me thy faith out of thy works, and I will shew thee out of my works my faith:
field: 59002019
59
2
19
thou -- thou dost believe that God is one; thou dost well, and the demons believe, and they shudder!
field: 59002020
59
2
20
And dost thou wish to know, O vain man, that the faith apart from the works is dead?
field: 59002021
59
2
21
Abraham our father -- was not he declared righteous out of works, having brought up Isaac his son upon the altar?
field: 59002022
59
2
22
dost thou see that the faith was working with his works, and out of the works the faith was perfected?
field: 59002023
59
2
23
and fulfilled was the Writing that is saying, `And Abraham did believe God, and it was reckoned to him -- to righteousness;' and, `Friend of God' he was called.
field: 59002024
59
2
24
Ye see, then, that out of works is man declared righteous, and not out of faith only;
field: 59002025
59
2
25
and in like manner also Rahab the harlot -- was she not out of works declared righteous, having received the messengers, and by another way having sent forth?
field: 59002026
59
2
26
for as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also the faith apart from the works is dead.

Many teachers become not, my brethren, having known that greater judgment we shall receive,
field: 59003002
59
3
2
for we all make many stumbles; if any one in word doth not stumble, this one `is' a perfect man, able to bridle also the whole body;
field: 59003003
59
3
3
lo, the bits we put into the mouths of the horses for their obeying us, and their whole body we turn about;
field: 59003004
59
3
4
lo, also the ships, being so great, and by fierce winds being driven, are led about by a very small helm, whithersoever the impulse of the helmsman doth counsel,
field: 59003005
59
3
5
so also the tongue is a little member, and doth boast greatly; lo, a little fire how much wood it doth kindle!
field: 59003006
59
3
6
and the tongue `is' a fire, the world of the unrighteousness, so the tongue is set in our members, which is spotting our whole body, and is setting on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by the gehenna.
field: 59003007
59

7
For every nature, both of beasts and of fowls, both of creeping things and things of the sea, is subdued, and hath been subdued, by the human nature,
field: 59003008
59
3
8
and the tongue no one of men is able to subdue, `it is' an unruly evil, full of deadly poison,
field: 59003009
59
3
9
with it we do bless the God and Father, and with it we do curse the men made according to the similitude of God;
field: 59003010
59
3
10
out of the same mouth doth come forth blessing and cursing; it doth not need, my brethren, these things so to happen;
field: 59003011
59
3
11
doth the fountain out of the same opening pour forth the sweet and the bitter?
field: 59003012
59
3
12
is a fig-tree able, my brethren, olives to make? or a vine figs? so no fountain salt and sweet water `is able' to make.
field: 59003013
59
3
13
Who `is' wise and intelligent among you? let him shew out of the good behaviour his works in meekness of wisdom,
field: 59003014
59
3
14
and if bitter zeal ye have, and rivalry in your heart, glory not, nor lie against the truth;
field: 59003015
59
3
15
this wisdom is not descending from above, but earthly, physical, demon-like,
field: 59003016
59
3
16
for where zeal and rivalry `are', there is insurrection and every evil matter;
field: 59003017
59
3
17
and the wisdom from above, first, indeed, is pure, then peaceable, gentle, easily entreated, full of kindness and good fruits, uncontentious, and unhypocritical: --
field: 59003018
59
3
18
and the fruit of the righteousness in peace is sown to those making peace.
field: 59004001

Whence `are' wars and fightings among you? not thence -- out of your passions, that are as soldiers in your members?
field: 59004002
59
4
2
ye desire, and ye have not; ye murder, and are zealous, and are not able to attain; ye fight and war, and ye have not, because of your not asking;
field: 59004003
59
4
3
ye ask, and ye receive not, because evilly ye ask, that in your pleasures ye may spend `it'.
field: 59004004

Adulterers and adulteresses! have ye not known that friendship of the world is enmity with God? whoever, then, may counsel to be a friend of the world, an enemy of God he is set.

5
Do ye think that emptily the Writing saith, `To envy earnestly desireth the spirit that did dwell in us,'
field: 59004006
59
4
6
and greater grace he doth give, wherefore he saith, `God against proud ones doth set Himself up, and to lowly ones He doth give grace?'
field: 59004007
59
4
7
be subject, then, to God; stand up against the devil, and he will flee from you;
field: 59004008
59
4
8
draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you; cleanse hands, ye sinners! and purify hearts, ye two-souled!
field: 59004009
59
4
9
be exceeding afflicted, and mourn, and weep, let your laughter to mourning be turned, and the joy to heaviness;
field: 59004010
59
4
10
be made low before the Lord, and He shall exalt you.
field: 59004011
59

11
Speak not one against another, brethren; he who is speaking against a brother, and is judging his brother, doth speak against law, and doth judge law, and if law thou dost judge, thou art not a doer of law but a judge;
field: 59004012
59
4
12
one is the lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy; thou -- who art thou that dost judge the other?

Go, now, ye who are saying, `To-day and to-morrow we will go on to such a city, and will pass there one year, and traffic, and make gain;'
field: 59004014
59
4
14
who do not know the thing of the morrow; for what is your life? for it is a vapour that is appearing for a little, and then is vanishing;
field: 59004015
59
4
15
instead of your saying, `If the Lord may will, we shall live, and do this or that;'
field: 59004016
59
4
16
and now ye glory in your pride; all such glorying is evil;
field: 59004017
59

17
to him, then, knowing to do good, and not doing, sin it is to him.
field: 59005001

Go, now, ye rich! weep, howling over your miseries that are coming upon `you';
field: 59005002
59
5
2
your riches have rotted, and your garments have become moth-eaten;
field: 59005003
59
5
3
your gold and silver have rotted, and the rust of them for a testimony shall be to you, and shall eat your flesh as fire. Ye made treasure in the last days!
field: 59005004
59
5
4
lo, the reward of the workmen, of those who in-gathered your fields, which hath been fraudulently kept back by you -- doth cry out, and the exclamations of those who did reap into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth have entered;
field: 59005005
59
5
5
ye did live in luxury upon the earth, and were wanton; ye did nourish your hearts, as in a day of slaughter;
field: 59005006
59
5
6
ye did condemn -- ye did murder the righteous one, he doth not resist you.
field: 59005007
59
5
7
Be patient, then, brethren, till the presence of the Lord; lo, the husbandman doth expect the precious fruit of the earth, being patient for it, till he may receive rain -- early and latter;
field: 59005008
59
5
8
be patient, ye also; establish your hearts, because the presence of the Lord hath drawn nigh;
field: 59005009
59
5
9
murmur not against one another, brethren, that ye may not be condemned; lo, the Judge before the door hath stood.
field: 59005010
59
5
10
An example take ye of the suffering of evil, my brethren, and of the patience, the prophets who did speak in the name of the Lord;
field: 59005011
59
5
11
lo, we call happy those who are enduring; the endurance of Job ye heard of, and the end of the Lord ye have seen, that very compassionate is the Lord, and pitying.
field: 59005012
59
5
12
And before all things, my brethren, do not swear, neither by the heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath, and let your Yes be Yes, and the No, No; that under judgment ye may not fall.
field: 59005013
59
5
13
Doth any one suffer evil among you? let him pray; is any of good cheer? let him sing psalms;
field: 59005014
59
5
14
is any infirm among you? let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, having anointed him with oil, in the name of the Lord,
field: 59005015
59
5
15
and the prayer of the faith shall save the distressed one, and the Lord shall raise him up, and if sins he may have committed, they shall be forgiven to him.
field: 59005016
59
5
16
Be confessing to one another the trespasses, and be praying for one another, that ye may be healed; very strong is a working supplication of a righteous man;
field: 59005017
59
5
17
Elijah was a man like affected as we, and with prayer he did pray -- not to rain, and it did not rain upon the land three years and six months;
field: 59005018
59
5
18
and again he did pray, and the heaven did give rain, and the land did bring forth her fruit.

19
Brethren, if any among you may go astray from the truth, and any one may turn him back,
field: 59005020
59
5
20
let him know that he who did turn back a sinner from the straying of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall cover a multitude of sins.

Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the choice sojourners of the dispersion of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,

Blessed `is' the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to the abundance of His kindness did beget us again to a living hope, through the rising again of Jesus Christ out of the dead,
field: 60001004
60
1
4
to an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and unfading, reserved in the heavens for you,
field: 60001005
60
1
5
who, in the power of God are being guarded, through faith, unto salvation, ready to be revealed in the last time,
field: 60001006
60
1
6
in which ye are glad, a little now, if it be necessary, being made to sorrow in manifold trials,
field: 60001007
60
1
7
that the proof of your faith -- much more precious than of gold that is perishing, and through fire being approved -- may be found to praise, and honour, and glory, in the revelation of Jesus Christ,
field: 60001008
60
1
8
whom, not having seen, ye love, in whom, now not seeing and believing, ye are glad with joy unspeakable and glorified,
field: 60001009
60
1
9
receiving the end of your faith -- salvation of souls;
field: 60001010
60
1
10
concerning which salvation seek out and search out did prophets who concerning the grace toward you did prophecy,
field: 60001011
60
1
11
searching in regard to what or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ that was in them was manifesting, testifying beforehand the sufferings of Christ and the glory after these,
field: 60001012
60
1
12
to whom it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to us they were ministering these, which now were told to you (through those who did proclaim good news to you,) in the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, to which things messengers do desire to bend looking.
field: 60001013
60
1
13
Wherefore having girded up the loins of your mind, being sober, hope perfectly upon the grace that is being brought to you in the revelation of Jesus Christ,
field: 60001014
60
1
14
as obedient children, not fashioning yourselves to the former desires in your ignorance,
field: 60001015
60
1
15
but according as He who did call you `is' holy, ye also, become holy in all behaviour,
field: 60001016
60
1
16
because it hath been written, `Become ye holy, because I am holy;'
field: 60001017
60
1
17
and if on the Father ye do call, who without acceptance of persons is judging according to the work of each, in fear the time of your sojourn pass ye,
field: 60001018
60
1
18
having known that, not with corruptible things -- silver or gold -- were ye redeemed from your foolish behaviour delivered by fathers,
field: 60001019
60
1
19
but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and unspotted -- Christ's --
field: 60001020
60
1
20
foreknown, indeed, before the foundation of the world, and manifested in the last times because of you,
field: 60001021
60
1
21
who through him do believe in God, who did raise out of the dead, and glory to him did give, so that your faith and hope may be in God.
field: 60001022
60
1
22
Your souls having purified in the obedience of the truth through the Spirit to brotherly love unfeigned, out of a pure heart one another love ye earnestly,
field: 60001023
60
1
23
being begotten again, not out of seed corruptible, but incorruptible, through a word of God -- living and remaining -- to the age;
field: 60001024
60
1
24
because all flesh `is' as grass, and all glory of man as flower of grass; wither did the grass, and the flower of it fell away,
field: 60001025
60
1
25
and the saying of the Lord doth remain -- to the age; and this is the saying that was proclaimed good news to you.
field: 60002001

Having put aside, then, all evil, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envyings, and all evil speakings,
field: 60002002
60
2
2
as new-born babes the word's pure milk desire ye, that in it ye may grow,
field: 60002003
60
2
3
if so be ye did taste that the Lord `is' gracious,
field: 60002004
60
2
4
to whom coming -- a living stone -- by men, indeed, having been disapproved of, but with God choice, precious,
field: 60002005
60
2
5
and ye yourselves, as living stones, are built up, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
field: 60002006
60
2
6
Wherefore, also, it is contained in the Writing: `Lo, I lay in Zion a chief corner-stone, choice, precious, and he who is believing on him may not be put to shame;'
field: 60002007
60
2
7
to you, then, who are believing `is' the preciousness; and to the unbelieving, a stone that the builders disapproved of, this one did become for the head of a corner,
field: 60002008
60
2
8
and a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence -- who are stumbling at the word, being unbelieving, -- to which also they were set;
field: 60002009
60
2
9
and ye `are' a choice race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people acquired, that the excellences ye may shew forth of Him who out of darkness did call you to His wondrous light;
field: 60002010
60
2
10
who `were' once not a people, and `are' now the people of God; who had not found kindness, and now have found kindness.
field: 60002011
60
2
11
Beloved, I call upon `you', as strangers and sojourners, to keep from the fleshly desires, that war against the soul,
field: 60002012
60
2
12
having your behaviour among the nations right, that in that which they speak against you as evil-doers, of the good works having beheld, they may glorify God in a day of inspection.
field: 60002013
60
2
13
Be subject, then, to every human creation, because of the Lord, whether to a king, as the highest,
field: 60002014
60
2
14
whether to governors, as to those sent through him, for punishment, indeed, of evil-doers, and a praise of those doing good;
field: 60002015
60
2
15
because, so is the will of God, doing good, to put to silence the ignorance of the foolish men;
field: 60002016
60
2
16
as free, and not having the freedom as the cloak of the evil, but as servants of God;
field: 60002017
60
2
17
to all give ye honour; the brotherhood love ye; God fear ye; the king honour ye.
field: 60002018
60
2
18
The domestics! be subjecting yourselves in all fear to the masters, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the cross;
field: 60002019
60
2
19
for this `is' gracious, if because of conscience toward God any one doth endure sorrows, suffering unrighteously;
field: 60002020
60
2
20
for what renown `is it', if sinning and being buffeted, ye do endure `it'? but if, doing good and suffering `for it', ye do endure, this `is' gracious with God,
field: 60002021
60
2
21
for to this ye were called, because Christ also did suffer for you, leaving to you an example, that ye may follow his steps,
field: 60002022
60
2
22
who did not commit sin, nor was guile found in his mouth,
field: 60002023
60
2
23
who being reviled -- was not reviling again, suffering -- was not threatening, and was committing himself to Him who is judging righteously,
field: 60002024
60
2
24
who our sins himself did bear in his body, upon the tree, that to the sins having died, to the righteousness we may live; by whose stripes ye were healed,
field: 60002025
60
2
25
for ye were as sheep going astray, but ye turned back now to the shepherd and overseer of your souls.
field: 60003001
60

1
In like manner, the wives, be ye subject to your own husbands, that even if certain are disobedient to the word, through the conversation of the wives, without the word, they may be won,
field: 60003002
60
3
2
having beheld your pure behaviour in fear,
field: 60003003
60
3
3
whose adorning -- let it not be that which is outward, of plaiting of hair, and of putting around of things of gold, or of putting on of garments,
field: 60003004
60
3
4
but -- the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible thing of the meek and quiet spirit, which is, before God, of great price,
field: 60003005
60
3
5
for thus once also the holy women who did hope on God, were adorning themselves, being subject to their own husbands,
field: 60003006
60
3
6
as Sarah was obedient to Abraham, calling him `sir,' of whom ye did become daughters, doing good, and not fearing any terror.
field: 60003007
60
3
7
The husbands, in like manner, dwelling with `them', according to knowledge, as to a weaker vessel -- to the wife -- imparting honour, as also being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered.
field: 60003008
60
3
8
And finally, being all of one mind, having fellow-feeling, loving as brethren, compassionate, courteous,
field: 60003009
60
3
9
not giving back evil for evil, or railing for railing, and on the contrary, blessing, having known that to this ye were called, that a blessing ye may inherit;
field: 60003010
60
3
10
for `he who is willing to love life, and to see good days, let him guard his tongue from evil, and his lips -- not to speak guile;
field: 60003011
60
3
11
let him turn aside from evil, and do good, let him seek peace and pursue it;
field: 60003012
60
3
12
because the eyes of the Lord `are' upon the righteous, and His ears -- to their supplication, and the face of the Lord `is' upon those doing evil;'
field: 60003013
60
3
13
and who `is' he who will be doing you evil, if of Him who is good ye may become imitators?
field: 60003014
60
3
14
but if ye also should suffer because of righteousness, happy `are ye'! and of their fear be not afraid, nor be troubled,
field: 60003015
60
3
15
and the Lord God sanctify in your hearts. And `be' ready always for defence to every one who is asking of you an account concerning the hope that `is' in you, with meekness and fear;
field: 60003016
60
3
16
having a good conscience, that in that in which they speak against you as evil-doers, they may be ashamed who are traducing your good behaviour in Christ;
field: 60003017
60
3
17
for `it is' better doing good, if the will of God will it, to suffer, than doing evil;
field: 60003018
60
3
18
because also Christ once for sin did suffer -- righteous for unrighteous -- that he might lead us to God, having been put to death indeed, in the flesh, and having been made alive in the spirit,
field: 60003019
60
3
19
in which also to the spirits in prison having gone he did preach,
field: 60003020
60
3
20
who sometime disbelieved, when once the long-suffering of God did wait, in days of Noah -- an ark being preparing -- in which few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water;
field: 60003021
60
3
21
also to which an antitype doth now save us -- baptism, (not a putting away of the filth of flesh, but the question of a good conscience in regard to God,) through the rising again of Jesus Christ,
field: 60003022
60
3
22
who is at the right hand of God, having gone on to heaven -- messengers, and authorities, and powers, having been subjected to him.
field: 60004001
60
4
1
Christ, then, having suffered for us in the flesh, ye also with the same mind arm yourselves, because he who did suffer in the flesh hath done with sin,
field: 60004002
60
4
2
no more in the desires of men, but in the will of God, to live the rest of the time in the flesh;
field: 60004003
60
4
3
for sufficient to us `is' the past time of life the will of the nations to have wrought, having walked in lasciviousnesses, desires, excesses of wines, revelings, drinking-bouts, and unlawful idolatries,
field: 60004004
60
4
4
in which they think it strange -- your not running with them to the same excess of dissoluteness, speaking evil,
field: 60004005

who shall give an account to Him who is ready to judge living and dead,

for for this also to dead men was good news proclaimed, that they may be judged, indeed, according to men in the flesh, and may live according to God in the spirit.

And of all things the end hath come nigh; be sober-minded, then, and watch unto the prayers,
field: 60004008
60

8
and, before all things, to one another having the earnest love, because the love shall cover a multitude of sins;
field: 60004009
60

hospitable to one another, without murmuring;
field: 60004010
60
4
10
each, according as he received a gift, to one another ministering it, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God;
field: 60004011
60
4
11
if any one doth speak -- `as oracles of God;' if any one doth minister -- `as of the ability which God doth supply;' that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the power -- to the ages of the ages. Amen.

Beloved, think it not strange at the fiery suffering among you that is coming to try you, as if a strange thing were happening to you,
field: 60004013
60
4
13
but, according as ye have fellowship with the sufferings of the Christ, rejoice ye, that also in the revelation of his glory ye may rejoice -- exulting;
field: 60004014
60
4
14
if ye be reproached in the name of Christ -- happy `are ye', because the Spirit of glory and of God upon you doth rest; in regard, indeed, to them, he is evil-spoken of, and in regard to you, he is glorified;
field: 60004015
60
4
15
for let none of you suffer as a murderer, or thief, or evil-doer, or as an inspector into other men's matters;
field: 60004016
60
4
16
and if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; and let him glorify God in this respect;
field: 60004017
60
4
17
because it is the time of the beginning of the judgment from the house of God, and if first from us, what the end of those disobedient to the good news of God?
field: 60004018
60
4
18
And if the righteous man is scarcely saved, the ungodly and sinner -- where shall he appear?
field: 60004019
60
4
19
so that also those suffering according to the will of god, as to a stedfast Creator, let them commit their own souls in good doing.

Elders who `are' among you, I exhort, who `am' a fellow-elder, and a witness of the sufferings of the Christ, and of the glory about to be revealed a partaker,
field: 60005002
60
5
2
feed the flock of God that `is' among you, overseeing not constrainedly, but willingly, neither for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind,
field: 60005003
60
5
3
neither as exercising lordship over the heritages, but patterns becoming of the flock,
field: 60005004
60
5
4
and at the manifestation of the chief Shepherd, ye shall receive the unfading crown of glory.
field: 60005005
60
5
5
In like manner, ye younger, be subject to elders, and all to one another subjecting yourselves; with humble-mindedness clothe yourselves, because God the proud doth resist, but to the humble He doth give grace;
field: 60005006
60
5
6
be humbled, then, under the powerful hand of God, that you He may exalt in good time,
field: 60005007
60
5
7
all your care having cast upon Him, because He careth for you.
field: 60005008
60
5
8
Be sober, vigilant, because your opponent the devil, as a roaring lion, doth walk about, seeking whom he may swallow up,
field: 60005009
60
5
9
whom resist, stedfast in the faith, having known the same sufferings to your brotherhood in the world to be accomplished.
field: 60005010
60
5
10
And the God of all grace, who did call you to His age-during glory in Christ Jesus, having suffered a little, Himself make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle `you';
field: 60005011
60
5
11
to Him `is' the glory, and the power -- to the ages and the ages! Amen.

Through Silvanus, to you the faithful brother, as I reckon, through few `words' I did write, exhorting and testifying this to be the true grace of God in which ye have stood.

Simeon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who did obtain a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ:
field: 61001002
61
1
2
Grace to you, and peace be multiplied in the acknowledgement of God and of Jesus our Lord!
field: 61001003
61
1
3
As all things to us His divine power (the things pertaining unto life and piety) hath given, through the acknowledgement of him who did call us through glory and worthiness,
field: 61001004
61
1
4
through which to us the most great and precious promises have been given, that through these ye may become partakers of a divine nature, having escaped from the corruption in the world in desires.
field: 61001005
61
1
5
And this same also -- all diligence having brought in besides, superadd in your faith the worthiness, and in the worthiness the knowledge,
field: 61001006
61
1
6
and in the knowledge the temperance, and in the temperance the endurance, and in the endurance the piety,
field: 61001007
61
1
7
and in the piety the brotherly kindness, and in the brotherly kindness the love;
field: 61001008
61
1
8
for these things being to you and abounding, do make `you' neither inert nor unfruitful in regard to the acknowledging of our Lord Jesus Christ,
field: 61001009
61
1
9
for he with whom these things are not present is blind, dim-sighted, having become forgetful of the cleansing of his old sins;
field: 61001010
61
1
10
wherefore, the rather, brethren, be diligent to make stedfast your calling and choice, for these things doing, ye may never stumble,
field: 61001011
61
1
11
for so, richly shall be superadded to you the entrance into the age-during reign of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
field: 61001012
61
1
12
Wherefore, I will not be careless always to remind you concerning these things, though, having known them, and having been established in the present truth,
field: 61001013
61
1
13
and I think right, so long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up in reminding `you',
field: 61001014
61
1
14
having known that soon is the laying aside of my tabernacle, even as also our Lord Jesus Christ did shew to me,
field: 61001015
61
1
15
and I will be diligent that also at every time ye have, after my outgoing, power to make to yourselves the remembrance of these things.
field: 61001016
61
1
16
For, skilfully devised fables not having followed out, we did make known to you the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, but eye-witnesses having become of his majesty --
field: 61001017
61
1
17
for having received from God the Father honour and glory, such a voice being borne to him by the excellent glory: `This is My Son -- the beloved, in whom I was well pleased;'
field: 61001018
61
1
18
and this voice we -- we did hear, out of heaven borne, being with him in the holy mount.
field: 61001019
61
1
19
And we have more firm the prophetic word, to which we do well giving heed, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, till day may dawn, and a morning star may arise -- in your hearts;
field: 61001020
61
1
20
this first knowing, that no prophecy of the Writing doth come of private exposition,
field: 61001021
61
1
21
for not by will of man did ever prophecy come, but by the Holy Spirit borne on holy men of God spake.
field: 61002001
61
2
1
And there did come also false prophets among the people, as also among you there shall be false teachers, who shall bring in besides destructive sects, and the Master who bought them denying, bringing to themselves quick destruction,
field: 61002002
61
2
2
and many shall follow out their destructive ways, because of whom the way of the truth shall be evil spoken of,
field: 61002003
61
2
3
and in covetousness, with moulded words, of you they shall make merchandise, whose judgment of old is not idle, and their destruction doth not slumber.
field: 61002004

For if God messengers who sinned did not spare, but with chains of thick gloom, having cast `them' down to Tartarus, did deliver `them' to judgment, having been reserved,
field: 61002005
61
2
5
and the old world did not spare, but the eighth person, Noah, of righteousness a preacher, did keep, a flood on the world of the impious having brought,
field: 61002006
61
2
6
and the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah having turned to ashes, with an overthrow did condemn, an example to those about to be impious having set `them';
field: 61002007
61
2
7
and righteous Lot, worn down by the conduct in lasciviousness of the impious, He did rescue,
field: 61002008
61
2
8
for in seeing and hearing, the righteous man, dwelling among them, day by day the righteous soul with unlawful works was harassing.
field: 61002009
61
2
9
The Lord hath known to rescue pious ones out of temptation, and unrighteous ones to a day of judgment, being punished, to keep,
field: 61002010
61
2
10
and chiefly those going behind the flesh in desire of uncleanness, and lordship despising; presumptuous, self-complacent, dignities they are not afraid to speak evil of,
field: 61002011
61
2
11
whereas messengers, in strength and power being greater, do not bear against them before the Lord an evil speaking judgment;
field: 61002012
61
2
12
and these, as irrational natural beasts, made to be caught and destroyed -- in what things they are ignorant of, speaking evil -- in their destruction shall be destroyed,
field: 61002013
61
2
13
about to receive a reward of unrighteousness, pleasures counting the luxury in the day, spots and blemishes, luxuriating in their deceits, feasting with you,
field: 61002014
61
2
14
having eyes full of adultery, and unable to cease from sin, enticing unstable souls, having an heart exercised in covetousnesses, children of a curse,
field: 61002015
61
2
15
having forsaken a right way, they did go astray, having followed in the way of Balaam the `son' of Bosor, who a reward of unrighteousness did love,
field: 61002016
61
2
16
and had a rebuke of his own iniquity -- a dumb ass, in man's voice having spoken, did forbid the madness of the prophet.
field: 61002017
61
2
17
These are wells without water, and clouds by a tempest driven, to whom the thick gloom of the darkness to the age hath been kept;
field: 61002018
61
2
18
for overswellings of vanity speaking, they do entice in desires of the flesh -- lasciviousnesses, those who had truly escaped from those conducting themselves in error,
field: 61002019
61
2
19
liberty to them promising, themselves being servants of the corruption, for by whom any one hath been overcome, to this one also he hath been brought to servitude,
field: 61002020
61
2
20
for, if having escaped from the pollutions of the world, in the acknowledging of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and by these again being entangled, they have been overcome, become to them hath the last things worse than the first,
field: 61002021
61
2
21
for it were better to them not to have acknowledged the way of the righteousness, than having acknowledged `it', to turn back from the holy command delivered to them,
field: 61002022
61
2
22
and happened to them hath that of the true similitude; `A dog did turn back upon his own vomit,' and, `A sow having bathed herself -- to rolling in mire.'
field: 61003001
61

1
This, now, beloved, a second letter to you I write, in both which I stir up your pure mind in reminding `you',
field: 61003002
61
3
2
to be mindful of the sayings said before by the holy prophets, and of the command of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour,
field: 61003003
61
3
3
this first knowing, that there shall come in the latter end of the days scoffers, according to their own desires going on,
field: 61003004
61
3
4
and saying, `Where is the promise of his presence? for since the fathers did fall asleep, all things so remain from the beginning of the creation;'
field: 61003005
61
3
5
for this is unobserved by them willingly, that the heavens were of old, and the earth out of water and through water standing together by the word of God,
field: 61003006
61
3
6
through which the then world, by water having been deluged, was destroyed;
field: 61003007
61
3
7
and the present heavens and the earth, by the same word are treasured, for fire being kept to a day of judgment and destruction of the impious men.
field: 61003008
61
3
8
And this one thing let not be unobserved by you, beloved, that one day with the Lord `is' as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day;
field: 61003009
61
3
9
the Lord is not slow in regard to the promise, as certain count slowness, but is long-suffering to us, not counselling any to be lost but all to pass on to reformation,
field: 61003010
61
3
10
and it will come -- the day of the Lord -- as a thief in the night, in which the heavens with a rushing noise will pass away, and the elements with burning heat be dissolved, and earth and the works in it shall be burnt up.
field: 61003011
61
3
11
All these, then, being dissolved, what kind of persons doth it behove you to be in holy behaviours and pious acts?
field: 61003012
61
3
12
waiting for and hasting to the presence of the day of God, by which the heavens, being on fire, shall be dissolved, and the elements with burning heat shall melt;
field: 61003013
61
3
13
and for new heavens and a new earth according to His promise we do wait, in which righteousness doth dwell;
field: 61003014
61
3
14
wherefore, beloved, these things waiting for, be diligent, spotless and unblameable, by Him to be found in peace,
field: 61003015
61
3
15
and the long-suffering of our Lord count ye salvation, according as also our beloved brother Paul -- according to the wisdom given to him -- did write to you,
field: 61003016
61
3
16
as also in all the epistles, speaking in them concerning these things, among which things are certain hard to be understood, which the untaught and unstable do wrest, as also the other Writings, unto their own destruction.
field: 61003017
61
3
17
Ye, then, beloved, knowing before, take heed, lest, together with the error of the impious being led away, ye may fall from your own stedfastness,
field: 61003018
61
3
18
and increase ye in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; to him `is' the glory both now, and to the day of the age! Amen.

That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we did behold, and our hands did handle, concerning the Word of the Life --
field: 62001002
62
1
2
and the Life was manifested, and we have seen, and do testify, and declare to you the Life, the age-during, which was with the Father, and was manifested to us --
field: 62001003
62
1
3
that which we have seen and heard declare we to you, that ye also may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship `is' with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ;
field: 62001004
62
1
4
and these things we write to you, that your joy may be full.
field: 62001005
62

5
And this is the message that we have heard from Him, and announce to you, that God is light, and darkness in Him is not at all;
field: 62001006
62
1
6
if we may say -- `we have fellowship with Him,' and in the darkness may walk -- we lie, and do not the truth;
field: 62001007
62
1
7
and if in the light we may walk, as He is in the light -- we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son doth cleanse us from every sin;
field: 62001008
62
1
8
if we may say -- `we have not sin,' ourselves we lead astray, and the truth is not in us;
field: 62001009
62
1
9
if we may confess our sins, stedfast He is and righteous that He may forgive us the sins, and may cleanse us from every unrighteousness;
field: 62001010
62
1
10
if we may say -- `we have not sinned,' a liar we make Him, and His word is not in us.
field: 62002001
62
2
1
My little children, these things I write to you, that ye may not sin: and if any one may sin, an advocate we have with the Father, Jesus Christ, a righteous one,
field: 62002002
62
2
2
and he -- he is a propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world,
field: 62002003
62
2
3
and in this we know that we have known him, if his commands we may keep;
field: 62002004
62
2
4
he who is saying, `I have known him,' and his command is not keeping, a liar he is, and in him the truth is not;
field: 62002005
62
2
5
and whoever may keep his word, truly in him the love of God hath been perfected; in this we know that in him we are.
field: 62002006
62
2
6
He who is saying in him he doth remain, ought according as he walked also himself so to walk.
field: 62002007
62
2
7
Brethren, a new command I write not to you, but an old command, that ye had from the beginning -- the old command is the word that ye heard from the beginning;
field: 62002008
62
2
8
again, a new command I write to you, which thing is true in him and in you, because the darkness doth pass away, and the true light doth now shine;
field: 62002009
62
2
9
he who is saying, in the light he is, and his brother is hating, in the darkness he is till now;
field: 62002010
62
2
10
he who is loving his brother, in the light he doth remain, and a stumbling-block in him there is not;
field: 62002011
62
2
11
and he who is hating his brother, in the darkness he is, and in the darkness he doth walk, and he hath not known whither he doth go, because the darkness did blind his eyes.
field: 62002012
62
2
12
I write to you, little children, because the sins have been forgiven you through his name;
field: 62002013
62
2
13
I write to you, fathers, because ye have known him who `is' from the beginning; I write to you, young men, because ye have overcome the evil. I write to you, little youths, because ye have known the Father:
field: 62002014
62
2
14
I did write to you, fathers, because ye have known him who `is' from the beginning; I did write to you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God in you doth remain, and ye have overcome the evil.
field: 62002015
62
2
15
Love not ye the world, nor the things in the world; if any one doth love the world, the love of the Father is not in him,
field: 62002016
62
2
16
because all that `is' in the world -- the desire of the flesh, and the desire of the eyes, and the ostentation of the life -- is not of the Father, but of the world,
field: 62002017
62
2
17
and the world doth pass away, and the desire of it, and he who is doing the will of God, he doth remain -- to the age.
field: 62002018
62
2
18
Little youths, it is the last hour; and even as ye heard that the antichrist doth come, even now antichrists have become many -- whence we know that it is the last hour;
field: 62002019
62
2
19
out of us they went forth, but they were not of us, for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us; but -- that they might be manifested that they are not all of us.
field: 62002020
62
2
20
And ye have an anointing from the Holy One, and have known all things;
field: 62002021
62
2
21
I did not write to you because ye have not known the truth, but because ye have known it, and because no lie is of the truth.
field: 62002022
62
2
22
Who is the liar, except he who is denying that Jesus is the Christ? this one is the antichrist who is denying the Father and the Son;
field: 62002023
62
2
23
every one who is denying the Son, neither hath he the Father, `he who is confessing the Son hath the Father also.'
field: 62002024
62
2
24
Ye, then, that which ye heard from the beginning, in you let it remain; if in you may remain that which from the beginning ye did hear, ye also in the Son and in the Father shall remain,
field: 62002025
62
2
25
and this is the promise that He did promise us -- the life the age-during.
field: 62002026
62
2
26
These things I did write to you concerning those leading you astray;
field: 62002027
62
2
27
and you, the anointing that ye did receive from him, in you it doth remain, and ye have no need that any one may teach you, but as the same anointing doth teach you concerning all, and is true, and is not a lie, and even as was taught you, ye shall remain in him.
field: 62002028
62
2
28
And now, little children, remain in him, that when he may be manifested, we may have boldness, and may not be ashamed before him, in his presence;
field: 62002029
62
2
29
if ye know that he is righteous, know ye that every one doing the righteousness, of him hath been begotten.
field: 62003001
62

1
See ye what love the Father hath given to us, that children of God we may be called; because of this the world doth not know us, because it did not know Him;
field: 62003002
62
3
2
beloved, now, children of God are we, and it was not yet manifested what we shall be, and we have known that if he may be manifested, like him we shall be, because we shall see him as he is;
field: 62003003
62
3
3
and every one who is having this hope on him, doth purify himself, even as he is pure.
field: 62003004
62
3
4
Every one who is doing the sin, the lawlessness also he doth do, and the sin is the lawlessness,
field: 62003005
62
3
5
and ye have known that he was manifested that our sins he may take away, and sin is not in him;
field: 62003006
62
3
6
every one who is remaining in him doth not sin; every one who is sinning, hath not seen him, nor known him.
field: 62003007
62
3
7
Little children, let no one lead you astray; he who is doing the righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous,
field: 62003008
62
3
8
he who is doing the sin, of the devil he is, because from the beginning the devil doth sin; for this was the Son of God manifested, that he may break up the works of the devil;
field: 62003009
62
3
9
every one who hath been begotten of God, sin he doth not, because his seed in him doth remain, and he is not able to sin, because of God he hath been begotten.
field: 62003010

In this manifest are the children of God, and the children of the devil; every one who is not doing righteousness, is not of God, and he who is not loving his brother,
field: 62003011
62
3
11
because this is the message that ye did hear from the beginning, that we may love one another,
field: 62003012
62
3
12
not as Cain -- of the evil one he was, and he did slay his brother, and wherefore did he slay him? because his works were evil, and those of his brother righteous.
field: 62003013
62
3
13
Do not wonder, my brethren, if the world doth hate you;
field: 62003014
62
3
14
we -- we have known that we have passed out of the death to the life, because we love the brethren; he who is not loving the brother doth remain in the death.
field: 62003015
62
3
15
Every one who is hating his brother -- a man-killer he is, and ye have known that no man-killer hath life age-during in him remaining,
field: 62003016
62
3
16
in this we have known the love, because he for us his life did lay down, and we ought for the brethren the lives to lay down;
field: 62003017
62
3
17
and whoever may have the goods of the world, and may view his brother having need, and may shut up his bowels from him -- how doth the love of God remain in him?
field: 62003018
62
3
18
My little children, may we not love in word nor in tongue, but in word and in truth!
field: 62003019
62
3
19
and in this we know that of the truth we are, and before Him we shall assure our hearts,
field: 62003020
62
3
20
because if our heart may condemn -- because greater is God than our heart, and He doth know all things.
field: 62003021
62
3
21
Beloved, if our heart may not condemn us, we have boldness toward God,
field: 62003022
62
3
22
and whatever we may ask, we receive from Him, because His commands we keep, and the things pleasing before Him we do,
field: 62003023
62
3
23
and this is His command, that we may believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and may love one another, even as He did give command to us,
field: 62003024
62
3
24
and he who is keeping His commands, in Him he doth remain, and He in him; and in this we know that He doth remain in us, from the Spirit that He gave us.
field: 62004001
62

1
Beloved, every spirit believe not, but prove the spirits, if of God they are, because many false prophets have gone forth to the world;
field: 62004002
62
4
2
in this know ye the Spirit of God; every spirit that doth confess Jesus Christ in the flesh having come, of God it is,
field: 62004003
62
4
3
and every spirit that doth not confess Jesus Christ in the flesh having come, of God it is not; and this is that of the antichrist, which ye heard that it doth come, and now in the world it is already.
field: 62004004
62
4
4
Ye -- of God ye are, little children, and ye have overcome them; because greater is He who `is' in you, than he who is in the world.
field: 62004005
62
4
5
They -- of the world they are; because of this from the world they speak, and the world doth hear them;
field: 62004006
62
4
6
we -- of God we are; he who is knowing God doth hear us; he who is not of God, doth not hear us; from this we know the spirit of the truth, and the spirit of the error.
field: 62004007
62
4
7
Beloved, may we love one another, because the love is of God, and every one who is loving, of God he hath been begotten, and doth know God;
field: 62004008
62
4
8
he who is not loving did not know God, because God is love.
field: 62004009
62
4
9
In this was manifested the love of God in us, because His Son -- the only begotten -- hath God sent to the world, that we may live through him;
field: 62004010
62
4
10
in this is the love, not that we loved God, but that He did love us, and did send His Son a propitiation for our sins.
field: 62004011
62
4
11
Beloved, if thus did God love us, we also ought one another to love;
field: 62004012
62
4
12
God no one hath ever seen; if we may love one another, God in us doth remain, and His love is having been perfected in us;
field: 62004013
62
4
13
in this we know that in Him we do remain, and He in us, because of His Spirit He hath given us.
field: 62004014
62
4
14
And we -- we have seen and do testify, that the Father hath sent the Son -- Saviour of the world;
field: 62004015
62
4
15
whoever may confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God in him doth remain, and he in God;
field: 62004016
62
4
16
and we -- we have known and believed the love, that God hath in us; God is love, and he who is remaining in the love, in God he doth remain, and God in him.
field: 62004017
62
4
17
In this made perfect hath been the love with us, that boldness we may have in the day of the judgment, because even as He is, we -- we also are in this world;
field: 62004018
62
4
18
fear is not in the love, but the perfect love doth cast out the fear, because the fear hath punishment, and he who is fearing hath not been made perfect in the love;
field: 62004019
62
4
19
we -- we love him, because He -- He first loved us;
field: 62004020
62
4
20
if any one may say -- `I love God,' and his brother he may hate, a liar he is; for he who is not loving his brother whom he hath seen, God -- whom he hath not seen -- how is he able to love?
field: 62004021
62
4
21
and this `is' the command we have from Him, that he who is loving God, may also love his brother.
field: 62005001
62
5
1
Every one who is believing that Jesus is the Christ, of God he hath been begotten, and every one who is loving Him who did beget, doth love also him who is begotten of Him:
field: 62005002
62
5
2
in this we know that we love the children of God, when we may love God, and His commands may keep;
field: 62005003
62
5
3
for this is the love of God, that His commands we may keep, and His commands are not burdensome;
field: 62005004
62
5
4
because every one who is begotten of God doth overcome the world, and this is the victory that did overcome the world -- our faith;
field: 62005005
62
5
5
who is he who is overcoming the world, if not he who is believing that Jesus is the Son of God?
field: 62005006
62
5
6
This one is he who did come through water and blood -- Jesus the Christ, not in the water only, but in the water and the blood; and the Spirit it is that is testifying, because the Spirit is the truth,
field: 62005007
62
5
7
because three are who are testifying `in the heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these -- the three -- are one;
field: 62005008
62
5
8
and three are who are testifying in the earth', the Spirit, and the water, and the blood, and the three are into the one.
field: 62005009
62
5
9
If the testimony of men we receive, the testimony of God is greater, because this is the testimony of God that He hath testified concerning His Son.
field: 62005010
62
5
10
He who is believing in the Son of God, hath the testimony in himself; he who is not believing God, a liar hath made Him, because he hath not believed in the testimony that God hath testified concerning His Son;
field: 62005011
62
5
11
and this is the testimony, that life age-during did God give to us, and this -- the life -- is in His Son;
field: 62005012
62
5
12
he who is having the Son, hath the life; he who is not having the Son of God -- the life he hath not.
field: 62005013
62
5
13
These things I did write to you who are believing in the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that life ye have age-during, and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God.
field: 62005014
62
5
14
And this is the boldness that we have toward Him, that if anything we may ask according to his will, He doth hear us,
field: 62005015
62
5
15
and if we have known that He doth hear us, whatever we may ask, we have known that we have the requests that we have requested from Him.
field: 62005016
62
5
16
If any one may see his brother sinning a sin not unto death, he shall ask, and He shall give to him life to those sinning not unto death; there is sin to death, not concerning it do I speak that he may beseech;
field: 62005017
62
5
17
all unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not unto death.
field: 62005018
62
5
18
We have known that every one who hath been begotten of God doth not sin, but he who was begotten of God doth keep himself, and the evil one doth not touch him;
field: 62005019
62
5
19
we have known that of God we are, and the whole world in the evil doth lie;
field: 62005020
62
5
20
and we have known that the Son of God is come, and hath given us a mind, that we may know Him who is true, and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ; this one is the true God and the life age-during!
field: 62005021

Little children, guard yourselves from the idols! Amen.

The Elder to the choice Kyria, and to her children, whom I love in truth, and not I only, but also all those having known the truth,
field: 63001002
63
1
2
because of the truth that is remaining in us, and with us shall be to the age,
field: 63001003
63
1
3
there shall be with you grace, kindness, peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
field: 63001004
63
1
4
I rejoiced exceedingly that I have found of thy children walking in truth, even as a command we did receive from the Father;
field: 63001005
63
1
5
and now I beseech thee, Kyria, not as writing to thee a new command, but which we had from the beginning, that we may love one another,
field: 63001006
63
1
6
and this is the love, that we may walk according to His commands; this is the command, even as ye did hear from the beginning, that in it ye may walk,
field: 63001007
63
1
7
because many leading astray did enter into the world, who are not confessing Jesus Christ coming in flesh; this one is he who is leading astray, and the antichrist.
field: 63001008
63
1
8
See to yourselves that ye may not lose the things that we wrought, but a full reward may receive;
field: 63001009
63
1
9
every one who is transgressing, and is not remaining in the teaching of the Christ, hath not God; he who is remaining in the teaching of the Christ, this one hath both the Father and the Son;
field: 63001010
63
1
10
if any one doth come unto you, and this teaching doth not bear, receive him not into the house, and say not to him, `Hail!'
field: 63001011
63
1
11
for he who is saying to him, `Hail,' hath fellowship with his evil works.
field: 63001012
63
1
12
Many things having to write to you, I did not intend through paper and ink, but I hope to come unto you, and speak mouth to mouth, that our joy may be full;
field: 63001013
63
1
13
salute thee do the children of thy choice sister. Amen.

The Elder to Gaius the beloved, whom I love in truth!
field: 64001002
64
1
2
beloved, concerning all things I desire thee to prosper, and to be in health, even as thy soul doth prosper,
field: 64001003
64
1
3
for I rejoiced exceedingly, brethren coming and testifying of the truth in thee, even as thou in truth dost walk;
field: 64001004
64
1
4
greater than these things I have no joy, that I may hear of my children in truth walking.
field: 64001005
64
1
5
Beloved, faithfully dost thou do whatever thou mayest work to the brethren and to the strangers,
field: 64001006
64
1
6
who did testify of thy love before an assembly, whom thou wilt do well, having sent forward worthily of God,
field: 64001007
64
1
7
because for `His' name they went forth, nothing receiving from the nations;
field: 64001008
64
1
8
we, then, ought to receive such, that fellow-workers we may become to the truth.
field: 64001009
64
1
9
I did write to the assembly, but he who is loving the first place among them -- Diotrephes -- doth not receive us;
field: 64001010
64
1
10
because of this, if I may come, I will cause him to remember his works that he doth, with evil words prating against us; and not content with these, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and those intending he doth forbid, and out of the assembly he doth cast.
field: 64001011
64
1
11
Beloved, be not thou following that which is evil, but that which is good; he who is doing good, of God he is, and he who is doing evil hath not seen God;
field: 64001012
64
1
12
to Demetrius testimony hath been given by all, and by the truth itself, and we also -- we do testify, and ye have known that our testimony is true.
field: 64001013
64
1
13
Many things I had to write, but I do not wish through ink and pen to write to thee,
field: 64001014
64
1
14
and I hope straightway to see thee, and mouth to mouth we shall speak. Peace to thee! salute thee do the friends; be saluting the friends by name.

Judas, of Jesus Christ a servant, and brother of James, to those sanctified in God the Father, and in Jesus Christ kept -- called,
field: 65001002

kindness to you, and peace, and love, be multiplied!
field: 65001003
65

3
Beloved, all diligence using to write to you concerning the common salvation, I had necessity to write to you, exhorting to agonize for the faith once delivered to the saints,
field: 65001004
65
1
4
for there did come in unobserved certain men, long ago having been written beforehand to this judgment, impious, the grace of our God perverting to lasciviousness, and our only Master, God, and Lord -- Jesus Christ -- denying,
field: 65001005
65
1
5
and to remind you I intend, you knowing once this, that the Lord, a people out of the land of Egypt having saved, again those who did not believe did destroy;
field: 65001006
65
1
6
messengers also, those who did not keep their own principality, but did leave their proper dwelling, to a judgment of a great day, in bonds everlasting, under darkness He hath kept,
field: 65001007
65
1
7
as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them, in like manner to these, having given themselves to whoredom, and gone after other flesh, have been set before -- an example, of fire age-during, justice suffering.
field: 65001008
65
1
8
In like manner, nevertheless, those dreaming also the flesh indeed do defile, and lordship they put away, and dignities they speak evil of,
field: 65001009
65
1
9
yet Michael, the chief messenger, when, with the devil contending, he was disputing about the body of Moses, did not dare to bring up an evil-speaking judgment, but said, `The Lord rebuke thee!'
field: 65001010
65
1
10
and these, as many things indeed as they have not known, they speak evil of; and as many things as naturally (as the irrational beasts) they understand, in these they are corrupted;
field: 65001011
65
1
11
wo to them! because in the way of Cain they did go on, and to the deceit of Balaam for reward they did rush, and in the gainsaying of Korah they did perish.
field: 65001012
65
1
12
These are in your love-feasts craggy rocks; feasting together with you, without fear shepherding themselves; clouds without water, by winds carried about; trees autumnal, without fruit, twice dead, rooted up;
field: 65001013
65
1
13
wild waves of a sea, foaming out their own shames; stars going astray, to whom the gloom of the darkness to the age hath been kept.
field: 65001014
65
1
14
And prophesy also to these did the seventh from Adam -- Enoch -- saying, `Lo, the Lord did come in His saintly myriads,
field: 65001015
65
1
15
to do judgment against all, and to convict all their impious ones, concerning all their works of impiety that they did impiously, and concerning all the stiff things that speak against Him did impious sinners.'
field: 65001016
65
1
16
These are murmurers, repiners; according to their desires walking, and their mouth doth speak great swellings, giving admiration to persons for the sake of profit;
field: 65001017
65
1
17
and ye, beloved, remember ye the sayings spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ:
field: 65001018
65
1
18
that they said to you, that in the last time there shall be scoffers, after their own desires of impieties going on,
field: 65001019
65
1
19
these are those setting themselves apart, natural men, the Spirit not having.
field: 65001020
65
1
20
And ye, beloved, on your most holy faith building yourselves up, in the Holy Spirit praying,
field: 65001021
65
1
21
yourselves in the love of God keep ye, waiting for the kindness of our Lord Jesus Christ -- to life age-during;
field: 65001022
65
1
22
and to some be kind, judging thoroughly,
field: 65001023
65
1
23
and some in fear save ye, out of the fire snatching, hating even the coat from the flesh spotted.
field: 65001024
65
1
24
And to Him who is able to guard you not stumbling, and to set `you' in the presence of His glory unblemished, in gladness,
field: 65001025
65
1
25
to the only wise God our Saviour, `is' glory and greatness, power and authority, both now and to all the ages! Amen.

A revelation of Jesus Christ, that God gave to him, to shew to his servants what things it behoveth to come to pass quickly; and he did signify `it', having sent through his messenger to his servant John,

1
2
who did testify the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, as many things also as he did see.
field: 66001003

John to the seven assemblies that `are' in Asia: Grace to you, and peace, from Him who is, and who was, and who is coming, and from the Seven Spirits that are before His throne,

66
1
5
and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the first-born out of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth; to him who did love us, and did bathe us from our sins in his blood,
field: 66001006
66

and did make us kings and priests to his God and Father, to him `is' the glory and the power to the ages of the ages! Amen.

Lo, he doth come with the clouds, and see him shall every eye, even those who did pierce him, and wail because of him shall all the tribes of the land. Yes! Amen!

I, John, who also `am' your brother, and fellow-partner in the tribulation, and in the reign and endurance, of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, because of the word of God, and because of the testimony of Jesus Christ;
field: 66001010
66
1
10
I was in the Spirit on the Lord's-day, and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, saying,
field: 66001011
66
1
11
`I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last;' and, `What thou dost see, write in a scroll, and send to the seven assemblies that `are' in Asia; to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamos, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.'
field: 66001012
66
1
12
And I did turn to see the voice that did speak with me, and having turned, I saw seven golden lamp-stands,
field: 66001013
66
1
13
and in the midst of the seven lamp-stands, `one' like to a son of man, clothed to the foot, and girt round at the breast with a golden girdle,
field: 66001014
66
1
14
and his head and hairs white, as if white wool -- as snow, and his eyes as a flame of fire;
field: 66001015
66
1
15
and his feet like to fine brass, as in a furnace having been fired, and his voice as a sound of many waters,
field: 66001016
66
1
16
and having in his right hand seven stars, and out of his mouth a sharp two-edged sword is proceeding, and his countenance `is' as the sun shining in its might.
field: 66001017
66
1
17
And when I saw him, I did fall at his feet as dead, and he placed his right hand upon me, saying to me, `Be not afraid; I am the First and the Last,
field: 66001018
66
1
18
and he who is living, and I did become dead, and, lo, I am living to the ages of the ages. Amen! and I have the keys of the hades and of the death.

`Write the things that thou hast seen, and the things that are, and the things that are about to come after these things;

After these things I saw, and lo, a door opened in the heaven, and the first voice that I heard `is' as of a trumpet speaking with me, saying, `Come up hither, and I will shew thee what it behoveth to come to pass after these things;'
field: 66004002
66

and immediately I was in the Spirit, and lo, a throne was set in the heaven, and upon the throne is `one' sitting,
field: 66004003
66

3
and He who is sitting was in sight like a stone, jasper and sardine: and a rainbow was round the throne in sight like an emerald.
field: 66004004
66
4
4
And around the throne `are' thrones twenty and four, and upon the thrones I saw the twenty and four elders sitting, clothed in white garments, and they had upon their heads crowns of gold;
field: 66004005
66
4
5
and out of the throne proceed do lightnings, and thunders, and voices; and seven lamps of fire are burning before the throne, which are the Seven Spirits of God,
field: 66004006
66
4
6
and before the throne `is' a sea of glass like to crystal, and in the midst of the throne, and round the throne, `are' four living creatures, full of eyes before and behind;
field: 66004007
66
4
7
and the first living creature `is' like a lion, and the second living creature `is' like a calf, and the third living creature hath the face as a man, and the fourth living creature `is' like an eagle flying.
field: 66004008
66
4
8
And the four living creatures, each by itself severally, had six wings, around and within `are' full of eyes, and rest they have not day and night, saying, `Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is coming;'
field: 66004009
66
4
9
and when the living creatures do give glory, and honour, and thanks, to Him who is sitting upon the throne, who is living to the ages of the ages,
field: 66004010
66
4
10
fall down do the twenty and four elders before Him who is sitting upon the throne, and bow before Him who is living to the ages of the ages, and they cast their crowns before the throne, saying,
field: 66004011
66

11
`Worthy art Thou, O Lord, to receive the glory, and the honour, and the power, because Thou -- Thou didst create the all things, and because of Thy will are they, and they were created.'
field: 66005001
66

And I saw upon the right hand of Him who is sitting upon the throne a scroll, written within and on the back, sealed with seven seals;
field: 66005002
66
5
2
and I saw a strong messenger crying with a great voice, `Who is worthy to open the scroll and to loose the seals of it?'
field: 66005003
66
5
3
and no one was able in the heaven, nor upon the earth, nor under the earth, to open the scroll, nor to behold it.
field: 66005004
66
5
4
And I was weeping much, because no one was found worthy to open and to read the scroll, nor to behold it,
field: 66005005
66
5
5
and one of the elders saith to me, `Weep not; lo, overcome did the Lion, who is of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, to open the scroll, and to loose the seven seals of it;
field: 66005006
66
5
6
and I saw, and lo, in the midst of the throne, and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb hath stood as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the Seven Spirits of God, which are sent to all the earth,
field: 66005007
66
5
7
and he came and took the scroll out of the right hand of Him who is sitting upon the throne.
field: 66005008
66
5
8
And when he took the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell before the Lamb, having each one harps and golden vials full of perfumes, which are the prayers of the saints,
field: 66005009
66
5
9
and they sing a new song, saying, `Worthy art thou to take the scroll, and to open the seals of it, because thou wast slain, and didst redeem us to God in thy blood, out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation,
field: 66005010
66

10
and didst make us to our God kings and priests, and we shall reign upon the earth.'
field: 66005011
66

11
And I saw, and I heard the voice of many messengers round the throne, and the living creatures, and the elders -- and the number of them was myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands --
field: 66005012
66
5
12
saying with a great voice, `Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive the power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing!'
field: 66005013
66
5
13
and every creature that is in the heaven, and in the earth, and under the earth, and the things that are upon the sea, and the all things in them, heard I saying, `To Him who is sitting upon the throne, and to the Lamb, `is' the blessing, and the honour, and the glory, and the might -- to the ages of the ages!'
field: 66005014
66
5
14
and the four living creatures said, `Amen!' and the twenty-four elders fell down and they bow before Him who is living to the ages of the ages.
field: 66006001
66

And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying, as it were a voice of thunder, `Come and behold!'
field: 66006002
66
6
2
and I saw, and lo, a white horse, and he who is sitting upon it is having a bow, and there was given to him a crown, and he went forth overcoming, and that he may overcome.
field: 66006003
66
6
3
And when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, `Come and behold!'
field: 66006004
66
6
4
and there went forth another horse -- red, and to him who is sitting upon it, there was given to him to take the peace from the land, and that one another they may slay, and there was given to him a great sword.
field: 66006005
66
6
5
And when he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, `Come and behold!' and I saw, and lo, a black horse, and he who is sitting upon it is having a balance in his hand,
field: 66006006
66
6
6
and I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, `A measure of wheat for a denary, and three measures of barley for a denary,' and `The oil and the wine thou mayest not injure.'
field: 66006007
66
6
7
And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, `Come and behold!'
field: 66006008
66
6
8
and I saw, and lo, a pale horse, and he who is sitting upon him -- his name is Death, and Hades doth follow with him, and there was given to them authority to kill, (over the fourth part of the land,) with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and by the beasts of the land.
field: 66006009
66
6
9
And when he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those slain because of the word of God, and because of the testimony that they held,
field: 66006010
66
6
10
and they were crying with a great voice, saying, `Till when, O Master, the Holy and the True, dost Thou not judge and take vengeance of our blood from those dwelling upon the land?'
field: 66006011
66
6
11
and there was given to each one white robes, and it was said to them that they may rest themselves yet a little time, till may be fulfilled also their fellow-servants and their brethren, who are about to be killed -- even as they.
field: 66006012
66
6
12
And I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and lo, a great earthquake came, and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood,
field: 66006013
66
6
13
and the stars of the heaven fell to the earth -- as a fig-tree doth cast her winter figs, by a great wind being shaken --
field: 66006014
66
6
14
and heaven departed as a scroll rolled up, and every mountain and island -- out of their places they were moved;
field: 66006015
66
6
15
and the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich, and the chiefs of thousands, and the mighty, and every servant, and every freeman, hid themselves in the dens, and in the rocks of the mountains,
field: 66006016
66
6
16
and they say to the mountains and to the rocks, `Fall upon us, and hide us from the face of Him who is sitting upon the throne, and from the anger of the Lamb,'
field: 66006017
66
6
17
because come did the great day of His anger, and who is able to stand?
field: 66007001
66

And after these things I saw four messengers, standing upon the four corners of the land, holding the four winds of the land, that the wind may not blow upon the land, nor upon the sea, nor upon any tree;
field: 66007002
66
7
2
and I saw another messenger going up from the rising of the sun, having a seal of the living God, and he did cry with a great voice to the four messengers, to whom it was given to injure the land and the sea, saying,
field: 66007003
66
7
3
`Do not injure the land, nor the sea, nor the trees, till we may seal the servants of our God upon their foreheads.'
field: 66007004
66
7
4
And I heard the number of those sealed, (144 thousands were sealed out of all the tribes of the sons of Israel):
field: 66007005
66
7
5
of the tribe of Judah 12 thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Reuben 12 thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Gad 12 thousand were sealed;
field: 66007006
66
7
6
of the tribe of Asher 12 thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Naphtali 12 thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Manasseh 12 thousand were sealed;
field: 66007007
66
7
7
of the tribe of Simeon 12 thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Levi 12 thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Issachar 12 thousand were sealed;

of the tribe of Zebulun 12 thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Joseph 12 thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Benjamin 12 thousand were sealed.
field: 66007009
66
7
9
After these things I saw, and lo, a great multitude, which to number no one was able, out of all nations, and tribes, and peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne, and before the Lamb, arrayed in white robes, and palms in their hands,
field: 66007010
66
7
10
and crying with a great voice, saying, `The salvation `is' to Him who is sitting upon the throne -- to our God, and to the Lamb!'
field: 66007011
66
7
11
And all the messengers stood around the throne, and the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell upon their face, and bowed before God,
field: 66007012
66
7
12
saying, `Amen! the blessing, and the glory, and the wisdom, and the thanksgiving, and the honour, and the power, and the strength, `are' to our God -- to the ages of the ages! Amen!'
field: 66007013
66
7
13
And answer did one of the elders, saying to me, `These, who have been arrayed with the white robes -- who are they, and whence came they?'
field: 66007014
66
7
14
and I have said to him, `Sir, thou hast known;' and he said to me, `These are those who are coming out of the great tribulation, and they did wash their robes, and they made their robes white in the blood of the Lamb;
field: 66007015
66
7
15
because of this are they before the throne of God, and they do service to Him day and night in His sanctuary, and He who is sitting upon the throne shall tabernacle over them;
field: 66007016
66
7
16
they shall not hunger any more, nor may the sun fall upon them, nor any heat,
field: 66007017
66

17
because the Lamb that `is' in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters, and wipe away shall God every tear from their eyes.'
field: 66008001
66

1
And when he openeth the seventh seal, there came silence in the heaven about half-an-hour,
field: 66008002
66
8
2
and I saw the seven messengers who before God have stood, and there were given to them seven trumpets,
field: 66008003
66
8
3
and another messenger did come, and he stood at the altar, having a golden censer, and there was given to him much perfume, that he may give `it' to the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar that `is' before the throne,
field: 66008004
66
8
4
and go up did the smoke of the perfumes to the prayers of the saints out of the hand of the messenger, before God;
field: 66008005
66
8
5
and the messenger took the censer, and did fill it out of the fire of the altar, and did cast `it' to the earth, and there came voices, and thunders, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
field: 66008006
66
8
6
And the seven messengers who are having the seven trumpets did prepare themselves that they may sound;
field: 66008007
66
8
7
and the first messenger did sound, and there came hail and fire, mingled with blood, and it was cast to the land, and the third of the trees was burnt up, and all the green grass was burnt up.
field: 66008008
66
8
8
And the second messenger did sound, and as it were a great mountain with fire burning was cast into the sea, and the third of the sea became blood,
field: 66008009
66
8
9
and die did the third of the creatures that `are' in the sea, those having life, and the third of the ships were destroyed.
field: 66008010
66
8
10
And the third messenger did sound, and there fell out of the heaven a great star, burning as a lamp, and it did fall upon the third of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters,
field: 66008011
66
8
11
and the name of the star is called Wormwood, and the third of the waters doth become wormwood, and many of the men did die of the waters, because they were made bitter.
field: 66008012
66
8
12
And the fourth messenger did sound, and smitten was the third of the sun, and the third of the moon, and the third of the stars, that darkened may be the third of them, and that the day may not shine -- the third of it, and the night in like manner.
field: 66008013
66
8
13
And I saw, and I heard one messenger, flying in the mid-heaven, saying with a great voice, `Wo, wo, wo, to those dwelling upon the land from the rest of the voices of the trumpet of the three messengers who are about to sound.'
field: 66009001
66

And the fifth messenger did sound, and I saw a star out of the heaven having fallen to the earth, and there was given to it the key of the pit of the abyss,
field: 66009002
66
9
2
and he did open the pit of the abyss, and there came up a smoke out of the pit as smoke of a great furnace, and darkened was the sun and the air, from the smoke of the pit.
field: 66009003
66
9
3
And out of the smoke came forth locusts to the earth, and there was given to them authority, as scorpions of the earth have authority,

66

4
and it was said to them that they may not injure the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but -- the men only who have not the seal of God upon their foreheads,
field: 66009005
66
9
5
and it was given to them that they may not kill them, but that they may be tormented five months, and their torment `is' as the torment of a scorpion, when it may strike a man;

and in those days shall men seek the death, and they shall not find it, and they shall desire to die, and the death shall flee from them.

And the likenesses of the locusts `are' like to horses made ready to battle, and upon their heads as crowns like gold, and their faces as faces of men,
field: 66009008
66
9
8
and they had hair as hair of women, and their teeth were as `those' of lions,
field: 66009009
66
9
9
and they had breastplates as breastplates of iron, and the noise of their wings `is' as the noise of chariots of many horses running to battle;
field: 66009010
66
9
10
and they have tails like to scorpions, and stings were in their tails; and their authority `is' to injure men five months;
field: 66009011
66
9
11
and they have over them a king -- the messenger of the abyss -- a name `is' to him in Hebrew, Abaddon, and in the Greek he hath a name, Apollyon.
field: 66009012

12
The first wo did go forth, lo, there come yet two woes after these things.
field: 66009013
66
9
13
And the sixth messenger did sound, and I heard a voice out of the four horns of the altar of gold that is before God,
field: 66009014
66
9
14
saying to the sixth messenger who had the trumpet, `Loose the four messengers who are bound at the great river Euphrates;'
field: 66009015
66
9
15
and loosed were the four messengers, who have been made ready for the hour, and day, and month, and year, that they may kill the third of men;
field: 66009016
66
9
16
and the number of the forces of the horsemen `is' two myriads of myriads, and I heard the number of them.
field: 66009017
66
9
17
And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and those sitting upon them, having breastplates of fire, and jacinth, and brimstone; and the heads of the horses `are' as heads of lions, and out of their mouths proceedeth fire, and smoke, and brimstone;
field: 66009018
66
9
18
by these three were the third of men killed, from the fire, and from the smoke, and from the brimstone, that is proceeding out of their mouth,
field: 66009019
66
9
19
for their authorities are in their mouth, and in their tails, for their tails `are' like serpents, having heads, and with them they do injure;
field: 66009020
66
9
20
and the rest of men, who were not killed in these plagues, neither did reform from the works of their hands, that they may not bow before the demons, and idols, those of gold, and those of silver, and those of brass, and those of stone, and those of wood, that are neither able to see, nor to hear, nor to walk,
field: 66009021
66
9
21
yea they did not reform from their murders, nor from their sorceries, nor from their whoredoms, nor from their thefts.
field: 66010001
66
10
1
And I saw another strong messenger coming down out of the heaven, arrayed with a cloud, and a rainbow upon the head, and his face as the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire,
field: 66010002
66
10
2
and he had in his hand a little scroll opened, and he did place his right foot upon the sea, and the left upon the land,
field: 66010003
66
10
3
and he cried with a great voice, as a lion doth roar, and when he cried, speak out did the seven thunders their voices;
field: 66010004
66
10
4
and when the seven thunders spake their voices, I was about to write, and I heard a voice out of the heaven saying to me, `Seal the things that the seven thunders spake,' and, `Thou mayest not write these things.'
field: 66010005
66
10
5
And the messenger whom I saw standing upon the sea, and upon the land, did lift up his hand to the heaven,
field: 66010006
66
10
6
and did swear in Him who doth live to the ages of the ages, who did create the heaven and the things in it, and the land and the things in it, and the sea and the things in it -- that time shall not be yet,
field: 66010007
66
10
7
but in the days of the voice of the seventh messenger, when he may be about to sound, and the secret of God may be finished, as He did declare to His own servants, to the prophets.
field: 66010008
66
10
8
And the voice that I heard out of the heaven is again speaking with me, and saying, `Go, take the little scroll that is open in the hand of the messenger who hath been standing upon the sea, and upon the land:'
field: 66010009
66
10
9
and I went away unto the messenger, saying to him, `Give me the little scroll;' and he saith to me, `Take, and eat it up, and it shall make thy belly bitter, but in thy mouth it shall be sweet -- as honey.'
field: 66010010
66
10
10
And I took the little scroll out of the hand of the messenger, and did eat it up, and it was in my mouth as honey -- sweet, and when I did eat it -- my belly was made bitter;
field: 66010011
66
10
11
and he saith to me, `It behoveth thee again to prophesy about peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings -- many.'
field: 66011001
66
11
1
And there was given to me a reed like to a rod, and the messenger stood, saying, `Rise, and measure the sanctuary of God, and the altar, and those worshipping in it;
field: 66011002
66
11
2
and the court that is without the sanctuary leave out, and thou mayest not measure it, because it was given to the nations, and the holy city they shall tread down forty-two months;
field: 66011003
66
11
3
and I will give to My two witnesses, and they shall prophesy days, a thousand, two hundred, sixty, arrayed with sackcloth;
field: 66011004
66
11
4
these are the two olive `trees', and the two lamp-stands that before the God of the earth do stand;
field: 66011005
66
11
5
and if any one may will to injure them, fire doth proceed out of their mouth, and doth devour their enemies, and if any one may will to injure them, thus it behoveth him to be killed.
field: 66011006
66
11
6
These have authority to shut the heaven, that it may not rain rain in the days of their prophecy, and authority they have over the waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the land with every plague, as often as they may will.
field: 66011007
66
11
7
`And when they may finish their testimony, the beast that is coming up out of the abyss shall make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them,
field: 66011008
66
11
8
and their dead bodies `are' upon the broad-place of the great city (that is called spiritually Sodom, and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified,)
field: 66011009
66
11
9
and they shall behold -- they of the peoples, and tribes, and tongues, and nations -- their dead bodies three days and a half, and their dead bodies they shall not suffer to be put into tombs,
field: 66011010
66
11
10
and those dwelling upon the land shall rejoice over them, and shall make merry, and gifts they shall send to one another, because these -- the two prophets -- did torment those dwelling upon the land.'
field: 66011011
66
11
11
And after the three days and a half, a spirit of life from God did enter into them, and they stood upon their feet, and great fear fell upon those beholding them,
field: 66011012
66
11
12
and they heard a great voice out of the heaven saying to them, `Come up hither;' and they went up to the heaven in the cloud, and their enemies beheld them;
field: 66011013
66
11
13
and in that hour came a great earthquake, and the tenth of the city did fall, and killed in the earthquake were names of men -- seven thousands, and the rest became affrighted, and they gave glory to the God of the heaven.
field: 66011014
66
11
14
The second wo did go forth, lo, the third wo doth come quickly.
field: 66011015
66
11
15
And the seventh messenger did sound, and there came great voices in the heaven, saying, `The kingdoms of the world did become `those' of our Lord and of His Christ, and he shall reign to the ages of the ages!'
field: 66011016
66
11
16
and the twenty and four elders, who before God are sitting upon their thrones, did fall upon their faces, and did bow before God,
field: 66011017
66
11
17
saying, `We give thanks to Thee, O Lord God, the Almighty, who art, and who wast, and who art coming, because Thou hast taken Thy great power and didst reign;
field: 66011018
66
11
18
and the nations were angry, and Thine anger did come, and the time of the dead, to be judged, and to give the reward to Thy servants, to the prophets, and to the saints, and to those fearing Thy name, to the small and to the great, and to destroy those who are destroying the land.'
field: 66011019
66
11
19
And opened was the sanctuary of God in the heaven, and there was seen the ark of His covenant in His sanctuary, and there did come lightnings, and voices, and thunders, and an earthquake, and great hail.
field: 66012001
66
12
1
And a great sign was seen in the heaven, a woman arrayed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars,
field: 66012002
66
12
2
and being with child she doth cry out, travailing and pained to bring forth.
field: 66012003
66
12
3
And there was seen another sign in the heaven, and, lo, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his head seven diadems,
field: 66012004
66
12
4
and his tail doth draw the third of the stars of the heaven, and he did cast them to the earth; and the dragon did stand before the woman who is about to bring forth, that when she may bring forth, her child he may devour;
field: 66012005
66
12
5
and she brought forth a male child, who is about to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, and caught away was her child unto God and His throne,
field: 66012006
66
12
6
and the woman did flee to the wilderness, where she hath a place made ready from God, that there they may nourish her -- days a thousand, two hundred, sixty.
field: 66012007
66
12
7
And there came war in the heaven; Michael and his messengers did war against the dragon, and the dragon did war, and his messengers,
field: 66012008
66
12
8
and they did not prevail, nor was their place found any more in the heaven;
field: 66012009
66
12
9
and the great dragon was cast forth -- the old serpent, who is called `Devil,' and `the Adversary,' who is leading astray the whole world -- he was cast forth to the earth, and his messengers were cast forth with him.
field: 66012010
66
12
10
And I heard a great voice saying in the heaven, `Now did come the salvation, and the power, and the reign, of our God, and the authority of His Christ, because cast down was the accuser of our brethren, who is accusing them before our God day and night;
field: 66012011
66
12
11
and they did overcome him because of the blood of the Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life -- unto death;
field: 66012012
66
12
12
because of this be glad, ye heavens, and those in them who do tabernacle; wo to those inhabiting the land and the sea, because the Devil did go down unto you, having great wrath, having known that he hath little time.'
field: 66012013
66
12
13
And when the dragon saw that he was cast forth to the earth, he pursued the woman who did bring forth the male,
field: 66012014
66
12
14
and there were given to the woman two wings of the great eagle, that she may fly to the wilderness, to her place, where she is nourished a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent;
field: 66012015
66
12
15
and the serpent did cast forth after the woman, out of his mouth, water as a river, that he may cause her to be carried away by the river,
field: 66012016
66
12
16
and the land did help the woman, and the land did open its mouth and did swallow up the river, that the dragon did cast forth out of his mouth;
field: 66012017
66
12
17
and the dragon was angry against the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her seed, those keeping the commands of God, and having the testimony of Jesus Christ.
field: 66013001
66
13
1
And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and I saw out of the sea a beast coming up, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon its horns ten diadems, and upon its heads a name of evil speaking,
field: 66013002
66
13
2
and the beast that I saw was like to a leopard, and its feet as of a bear, and its mouth as the mouth of a lion, and the dragon did give to it his power, and his throne, and great authority.
field: 66013003
66
13
3
And I saw one of its heads as slain to death, and its deadly stroke was healed, and all the earth did wonder after the beast,
field: 66013004
66
13
4
and they did bow before the dragon who did give authority to the beast, and they did bow before the beast, saying, `Who `is' like to the beast? who is able to war with it?'
field: 66013005
66
13
5
And there was given to it a mouth speaking great things, and evil-speakings, and there was given to it authority to make war forty-two months,
field: 66013006
66
13
6
and it did open its mouth for evil-speaking toward God, to speak evil of His name, and of His tabernacle, and of those who in the heaven tabernacle,
field: 66013007
66
13
7
and there was given to it to make war with the saints, and to overcome them, and there was given to it authority over every tribe, and tongue, and nation.
field: 66013008
66
13
8
And bow before it shall all who are dwelling upon the land, whose names have not been written in the scroll of the life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world;
field: 66013009
66
13
9
if any one hath an ear -- let him hear:
field: 66013010
66
13
10
if any one a captivity doth gather, into captivity he doth go away; if any one by sword doth kill, it behoveth him by sword to be killed; here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.
field: 66013011
66
13
11
And I saw another beast coming up out of the land, and it had two horns, like a lamb, and it was speaking as a dragon,
field: 66013012
66
13
12
and all the authority of the first beast doth it do before it, and it maketh the land and those dwelling in it that they shall bow before the first beast, whose deadly stroke was healed,
field: 66013013
66
13
13
and it doth great signs, that fire also it may make to come down from the heaven to the earth before men,
field: 66013014
66
13
14
and it leadeth astray those dwelling on the land, because of the signs that were given it to do before the beast, saying to those dwelling upon the land to make an image to the beast that hath the stroke of the sword and did live,
field: 66013015
66
13
15
and there was given to it to give a spirit to the image of the beast, that also the image of the beast may speak, and `that' it may cause as many as shall not bow before the image of the beast, that they may be killed.
field: 66013016
66
13
16
And it maketh all, the small, and the great, and the rich, and the poor, and the freemen, and the servants, that it may give to them a mark upon their right hand or upon their foreheads,
field: 66013017
66
13
17
and that no one may be able to buy, or to sell, except he who is having the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
field: 66013018
66
13
18
Here is the wisdom! He who is having the understanding, let him count the number of the beast, for the number of a man it is, and its number `is' 666.
field: 66014001
66
14
1
And I saw, and lo, a Lamb having stood upon the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty-four thousands, having the name of his Father written upon their foreheads;
field: 66014002
66
14
2
and I heard a voice out of the heaven, as a voice of many waters, and as a voice of great thunder, and a voice I heard of harpers harping with their harps,
field: 66014003
66
14
3
and they sing, as it were, a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures, and the elders, and no one was able to learn the song except the hundred forty-four thousands, who have been bought from the earth;
field: 66014004
66
14
4
these are they who with women were not defiled, for they are virgin; these are they who are following the Lamb whithersoever he may go; these were bought from among men -- a first-fruit to God and to the Lamb --
field: 66014005
66
14
5
and in their mouth there was not found guile, for unblemished are they before the throne of God.
field: 66014006
66
14
6
And I saw another messenger flying in mid-heaven, having good news age-during to proclaim to those dwelling upon the earth, and to every nation, and tribe, and tongue, and people,
field: 66014007
66
14
7
saying in a great voice, `Fear ye God, and give to Him glory, because come did the hour of His judgment, and bow ye before Him who did make the heaven, and the land, and sea, and fountains of waters.'
field: 66014008
66
14
8
And another messenger did follow, saying, `Fall, fall, did Babylon, the great city, because of the wine of the wrath of her whoredom she hath given to all nations to drink.'
field: 66014009
66
14
9
And a third messenger did follow them, saying in a great voice, `If any one the beast doth bow before, and his image, and doth receive a mark upon his forehead, or upon his hand,
field: 66014010
66
14
10
he also shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, that hath been mingled unmixed in the cup of His anger, and he shall be tormented in fire and brimstone before the holy messengers, and before the Lamb,
field: 66014011
66
14
11
and the smoke of their torment doth go up to ages of ages; and they have no rest day and night, who are bowing before the beast and his image, also if any doth receive the mark of his name.
field: 66014012
66
14
12
Here is endurance of the saints: here `are' those keeping the commands of God, and the faith of Jesus.'
field: 66014013
66
14
13
And I heard a voice out of the heaven saying to me, `Write: Happy are the dead who in the Lord are dying from this time!' `Yes, (saith the Spirit,) That they may rest from their labours -- and their works do follow them!'
field: 66014014
66
14
14
And I saw, and lo, a white cloud, and upon the cloud `one' sitting like to a son of man, having upon his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle;
field: 66014015
66
14
15
and another messenger did come forth out of the sanctuary crying in a great voice to him who is sitting upon the cloud, `Send forth thy sickle and reap, because come to thee hath the hour of reaping, because ripe hath been the harvest of the earth;'
field: 66014016
66
14
16
and he who is sitting upon the cloud did put forth his sickle upon the earth, and the earth was reaped.
field: 66014017
66
14
17
And another messenger did come forth out of the sanctuary that `is' in the heaven, having -- he also -- a sharp sickle,
field: 66014018
66
14
18
and another messenger did come forth out from the altar, having authority over the fire, and he called with a great cry to him having the sharp sickle, saying, `Send forth thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, because come to perfection have her grapes;'
field: 66014019
66
14
19
and the messenger did put forth his sickle to the earth, and did gather the vine of the earth, and did cast `it' to the great wine-press of the wrath of God;
field: 66014020
66
14
20
and trodden was the wine-press outside of the city, and blood did come forth out of the wine-press -- unto the bridles of the horses, a thousand, six hundred furlongs.
field: 66015001
66
15
1
And I saw another sign in the heaven, great and wonderful, seven messengers having the seven last plagues, because in these was completed the wrath of God,
field: 66015002
66
15
2
and I saw as a sea of glass mingled with fire, and those who do gain the victory over the beast, and his image, and his mark, `and' the number of his name, standing by the sea of the glass, having harps of God,
field: 66015003
66
15
3
and they sing the song of Moses, servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, `Great and wonderful `are' Thy works, O Lord God, the Almighty, righteous and true `are' Thy ways, O King of saints,
field: 66015004
66
15
4
who may not fear Thee, O Lord, and glorify Thy name? because Thou alone `art' kind, because all the nations shall come and bow before Thee, because Thy righteous acts were manifested.'
field: 66015005
66
15
5
And after these things I saw, and lo, opened was the sanctuary of the tabernacle of the testimony in the heaven;
field: 66015006
66
15
6
and come forth did the seven messengers having the seven plagues, out of the sanctuary, clothed in linen, pure and shining, and girded round the breasts with golden girdles:
field: 66015007
66
15
7
and one of the four living creatures did give to the seven messengers seven golden vials, full of the wrath of God, who is living to the ages of the ages;
field: 66015008
66
15
8
and filled was the sanctuary with smoke from the glory of God, and from His power, and no one was able to enter into the sanctuary till the seven plagues of the seven messengers may be finished.
field: 66016001
66
16
1
And I heard a great voice out of the sanctuary saying to the seven messengers, `Go away, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God to the earth;'
field: 66016002
66
16
2
and the first did go away, and did pour out his vial upon the land, and there came a sore -- bad and grievous -- to men, those having the mark of the beast, and those bowing to his image.
field: 66016003
66
16
3
And the second messenger did pour out his vial to the sea, and there came blood as of `one' dead, and every living soul died in the sea.
field: 66016004
66
16
4
And the third messenger did pour out his vial to the rivers, and to the fountains of the waters, and there came blood,
field: 66016005
66
16
5
and I heard the messenger of the waters, saying, `righteous, O Lord, art Thou, who art, and who wast, and who shalt be, because these things Thou didst judge,
field: 66016006
66
16
6
because blood of saints and prophets they did pour out, and blood to them Thou didst give to drink, for they are worthy;'
field: 66016007
66
16
7
and I heard another out of the altar, saying, `Yes, Lord God, the Almighty, true and righteous `are' Thy judgments.'
field: 66016008
66
16
8
And the fourth messenger did pour out his vial upon the sun, and there was given to him to scorch men with fire,
field: 66016009
66
16
9
and men were scorched with great heat, and they did speak evil of the name of God, who hath authority over these plagues, and they did not reform -- to give to Him glory.
field: 66016010
66
16
10
And the fifth messenger did pour out his vial upon the throne of the beast, and his kingdom did become darkened, and they were gnawing their tongues from the pain,
field: 66016011
66
16
11
and they did speak evil of the God of the heaven, from their pains, and from their sores, and they did not reform from their works.
field: 66016012
66
16
12
And the sixth messenger did pour out his vial upon the great river, the Euphrates, and dried up was its water, that the way of the kings who are from the rising of the sun may be made ready;
field: 66016013
66
16
13
and I saw `come' out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs --

for they are spirits of demons, doing signs -- which go forth unto the kings of the earth, and of the whole world, to bring them together to the battle of that great day of God the Almighty; --
field: 66016015
66
16
15
`lo, I do come as a thief; happy `is' he who is watching, and keeping his garments, that he may not walk naked, and they may see his unseemliness,' --
field: 66016016
66
16
16
and they did bring them together to the place that is called in Hebrew Armageddon.
field: 66016017
66
16
17
And the seventh messenger did pour out his vial to the air, and there came forth a great voice from the sanctuary of the heaven, from the throne, saying, `It hath come!'
field: 66016018
66
16
18
and there came voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and a great earthquake came, such as came not since men came upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake -- so great!
field: 66016019
66
16
19
And it came -- the great city -- into three parts, and the cities of the nations did fall, and Babylon the great was remembered before God, to give to her the cup of the wine of the wrath of His anger,
field: 66016020
66
16
20
and every island did flee away, and mountains were not found,
field: 66016021
66
16
21
and great hail (as of talent weight) doth come down out of the heaven upon men, and men did speak evil of God because of the plague of the hail, because its plague is very great.
field: 66017001
66
17
1
And there came one of the seven messengers, who were having the seven vials, and he spake with me, saying to me, `Come, I will shew to thee the judgment of the great whore, who is sitting upon the many waters,
field: 66017002
66
17
2
with whom the kings of the earth did commit whoredom; and made drunk from the wine of her whoredom were those inhabiting the earth;'
field: 66017003
66
17
3
and he carried me away to a wilderness in the Spirit, and I saw a woman sitting upon a scarlet-coloured beast, full of names of evil-speaking, having seven heads and ten horns,
field: 66017004
66
17
4
and the woman was arrayed with purple and scarlet-colour, and gilded with gold, and precious stone, and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and uncleanness of her whoredom,
field: 66017005
66
17
5
and upon her forehead was a name written: `Secret, Babylon the Great, the Mother of the Whores, and the Abominations of the earth.'
field: 66017006
66
17
6
And I saw the woman drunken from the blood of the saints, and from the blood of the witnesses of Jesus, and I did wonder -- having seen her -- with great wonder;
field: 66017007
66
17
7
and the messenger said to me, `Wherefore didst thou wonder? I -- I will tell thee the secret of the woman and of the beast that `is' carrying her, which hath the seven heads and the ten horns.
field: 66017008
66
17
8
`The beast that thou didst see: it was, and it is not; and it is about to come up out of the abyss, and to go away to destruction, and wonder shall those dwelling upon the earth, whose names have not been written upon the scroll of the life from the foundation of the world, beholding the beast that was, and is not, although it is.
field: 66017009
66
17
9
`Here `is' the mind that is having wisdom; the seven heads are seven mountains, upon which the woman doth sit,
field: 66017010
66
17
10
and there are seven kings, the five did fall, and the one is, the other did not yet come, and when he may come, it behoveth him to remain a little time;
field: 66017011
66
17
11
and the beast that was, and is not, he also is eighth, and out of the seven he is, and to destruction he doth go away.
field: 66017012
66
17
12
`And the ten horns that thou sawest, are ten kings, who a kingdom did not yet receive, but authority as kings the same hour do receive with the beast,
field: 66017013
66
17
13
these have one mind, and their own power and authority to the beast they shall give over;
field: 66017014
66
17
14
these with the Lamb shall make war, and the Lamb shall overcome them, because Lord of lords he is, and King of kings, and those with him are called, and choice, and stedfast.'
field: 66017015
66
17
15
And he saith to me, `The waters that thou didst see, where the whore doth sit, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues;'
field: 66017016
66
17
16
and the ten horns that thou didst see upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and shall burn her in fire,
field: 66017017
66
17
17
for God did give into their hearts to do its mind, and to make one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast till the sayings of God may be complete,
field: 66017018
66
17
18
and the woman that thou didst see is the great city that is having reign over the kings of the land.'
field: 66018001
66
18
1
And after these things I saw another messenger coming down out of the heaven, having great authority, and the earth was lightened from his glory,
field: 66018002
66
18
2
and he did cry in might -- a great voice, saying, `Fall, fall did Babylon the great, and she became a habitation of demons, and a hold of every unclean spirit, and a hold of every unclean and hateful bird,
field: 66018003
66
18
3
because of the wine of the wrath of her whoredom have all the nations drunk, and the kings of the earth with her did commit whoredom, and merchants of the earth from the power of her revel were made rich.
field: 66018004
66
18
4
And I heard another voice out of the heaven, saying, `Come forth out of her, My people, that ye may not partake with her sins, and that ye may not receive of her plagues,
field: 66018005
66
18
5
because her sins did follow -- unto the heaven, and God did remember her unrighteousness.
field: 66018006
66
18
6
Render to her as also she did render to you, and double to her doubles according to her works; in the cup that she did mingle mingle to her double.
field: 66018007
66
18
7
`As much as she did glorify herself and did revel, so much torment and sorrow give to her, because in her heart she saith, I sit a queen, and a widow I am not, and sorrow I shall not see;
field: 66018008
66
18
8
because of this, in one day, shall come her plagues, death, and sorrow, and famine; and in fire she shall be utterly burned, because strong `is' the Lord God who is judging her;
field: 66018009
66
18
9
and weep over her, and smite themselves for her, shall the kings of the earth, who with her did commit whoredom and did revel, when they may see the smoke of her burning,
field: 66018010
66
18
10
from afar having stood because of the fear of her torment, saying, Wo, wo, the great city! Babylon, the strong city! because in one hour did come thy judgment.
field: 66018011
66
18
11
`And the merchants of the earth shall weep and sorrow over her, because their lading no one doth buy any more;
field: 66018012
66
18
12
lading of gold, and silver, and precious stone, and pearl, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyne wood, and every vessel of ivory, and every vessel of most precious wood, and brass, and iron, and marble,
field: 66018013
66
18
13
and cinnamon, and odours, and ointment, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and of horses, and of chariots, and of bodies and souls of men.
field: 66018014
66
18
14
`And the fruits of the desire of thy soul did go away from thee, and all things -- the dainty and the bright -- did go away from thee, and no more at all mayest thou find them.
field: 66018015
66
18
15
The merchants of these things, who were made rich by her, far off shall stand because of the fear of her torment, weeping, and sorrowing,
field: 66018016
66
18
16
and saying, Wo, wo, the great city, that was arrayed with fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and gilded in gold, and precious stone, and pearls -- because in one hour so much riches were made waste!
field: 66018017
66
18
17
`And every shipmaster, and all the company upon the ships, and sailors, and as many as work the sea, far off stood,
field: 66018018
66
18
18
and were crying, seeing the smoke of her burning, saying, What `city is' like to the great city?
field: 66018019
66
18
19
and they did cast dust upon their heads, and were crying out, weeping and sorrowing, saying, Wo, wo, the great city! in which were made rich all having ships in the sea, out of her costliness -- for in one hour was she made waste.
field: 66018020
66
18
20
`Be glad over her, O heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets, because God did judge your judgment of her!'
field: 66018021
66
18
21
And one strong messenger did take up a stone as a great millstone, and did cast `it' to the sea, saying, `Thus with violence shall Babylon be cast, the great city, and may not be found any more at all;
field: 66018022
66
18
22
and voice of harpers, and musicians, and pipers, and trumpeters, may not be heard at all in thee any more; and any artizan of any art may not be found at all in thee any more; and noise of a millstone may not be heard at all in thee any more;
field: 66018023
66
18
23
and light of a lamp may not shine at all in thee any more; and voice of bridegroom and of bride may not be heard at all in thee any more; because thy merchants were the great ones of the earth, because in thy sorcery were all the nations led astray,
field: 66018024
66
18
24
and in her blood of prophets and of saints was found, and of all those who have been slain on the earth.'
field: 66019001
66
19
1
And after these things I heard a great voice of a great multitude in the heaven, saying, `Alleluia! the salvation, and the glory, and the honour, and the power, `is' to the Lord our God;
field: 66019002
66
19
2
because true and righteous `are' His judgments, because He did judge the great whore who did corrupt the earth in her whoredom, and He did avenge the blood of His servants at her hand;'
field: 66019003
66
19
3
and a second time they said, `Alleluia;' and her smoke doth come up -- to the ages of the ages!
field: 66019004
66
19
4
And fall down did the elders -- the twenty and four -- and the four living creatures, and they did bow before God who is sitting upon the throne, saying, `Amen, Alleluia.'
field: 66019005
66
19
5
And a voice out of the throne did come forth, saying, `Praise our God, all ye His servants, and those fearing Him, both the small and the great;'
field: 66019006
66
19
6
and I heard as the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, `Alleluia! because reign did the Lord God -- the Almighty!
field: 66019007
66
19
7
may we rejoice and exult, and give the glory to Him, because come did the marriage of the Lamb, and his wife did make herself ready;
field: 66019008
66
19
8
and there was given to her that she may be arrayed with fine linen, pure and shining, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.'
field: 66019009
66
19
9
And he saith to me, `Write: Happy `are' they who to the supper of the marriage of the Lamb have been called;' and he saith to me, `These `are' the true words of God;'
field: 66019010
66
19
10
and I fell before his feet, to bow before him, and he saith to me, `See -- not! fellow servant of thee am I, and of thy brethren, those having the testimony of Jesus; bow before God, for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of the prophecy.'
field: 66019011
66
19
11
And I saw the heaven having been opened, and lo, a white horse, and he who is sitting upon it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness doth he judge and war,
field: 66019012
66
19
12
and his eyes `are' as a flame of fire, and upon his head `are' many diadems -- having a name written that no one hath known, except himself,
field: 66019013
66
19
13
and he is arrayed with a garment covered with blood, and his name is called, The Word of God.
field: 66019014
66
19
14
And the armies in the heaven were following him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen -- white and pure;
field: 66019015
66
19
15
and out of his mouth doth proceed a sharp sword, that with it he may smite the nations, and he shall rule them with a rod of iron, and he doth tread the press of the wine of the wrath and the anger of God the Almighty,
field: 66019016
66
19
16
and he hath upon the garment and upon his thigh the name written, `King of kings, and Lord of lords.'
field: 66019017
66
19
17
And I saw one messenger standing in the sun, and he cried, a great voice, saying to all the birds that are flying in mid-heaven, `Come and be gathered together to the supper of the great God,
field: 66019018
66
19
18
that ye may eat flesh of kings, and flesh of chiefs of thousands, and flesh of strong men, and flesh of horses, and of those sitting on them, and the flesh of all -- freemen and servants -- both small and great.'
field: 66019019
66
19
19
And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, having been gathered together to make war with him who is sitting upon the horse, and with his army;
field: 66019020
66
19
20
and the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet who did the signs before him, in which he led astray those who did receive the mark of the beast, and those who did bow before his image; living they were cast -- the two -- to the lake of the fire, that is burning with brimstone;
field: 66019021
66
19
21
and the rest were killed with the sword of him who is sitting on the horse, which `sword' is proceeding out of his mouth, and all the birds were filled out of their flesh.
field: 66020001
66
20
1
And I saw a messenger coming down out of the heaven, having the key of the abyss, and a great chain over his hand,
field: 66020002
66
20
2
and he laid hold on the dragon, the old serpent, who is Devil and Adversary, and did bind him a thousand years,
field: 66020003
66
20
3
and he cast him to the abyss, and did shut him up, and put a seal upon him, that he may not lead astray the nations any more, till the thousand years may be finished; and after these it behoveth him to be loosed a little time.
field: 66020004
66
20
4
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given to them, and the souls of those who have been beheaded because of the testimony of Jesus, and because of the word of God, and who did not bow before the beast, nor his image, and did not receive the mark upon their forehead and upon their hand, and they did live and reign with Christ the thousand years;
field: 66020005
66
20
5
and the rest of the dead did not live again till the thousand years may be finished; this `is' the first rising again.
field: 66020006
66
20
6
Happy and holy `is' he who is having part in the first rising again; over these the second death hath not authority, but they shall be priests of God and of the Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
field: 66020007
66
20
7
And when the thousand years may be finished, the Adversary shall be loosed out of his prison,
field: 66020008
66
20
8
and he shall go forth to lead the nations astray, that are in the four corners of the earth -- Gog and Magog -- to gather them together to war, of whom the number `is' as the sand of the sea;
field: 66020009
66
20
9
and they did go up over the breadth of the land, and did surround the camp of the saints, and the beloved city, and there came down fire from God out of the heaven, and devoured them;
field: 66020010
66
20
10
and the Devil, who is leading them astray, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where `are' the beast and the false prophet, and they shall be tormented day and night -- to the ages of the ages.
field: 66020011
66
20
11
And I saw a great white throne, and Him who is sitting upon it, from whose face the earth and the heaven did flee away, and place was not found for them;
field: 66020012
66
20
12
and I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and scrolls were opened, and another scroll was opened, which is that of the life, and the dead were judged out of the things written in the scrolls -- according to their works;
field: 66020013
66
20
13
and the sea did give up those dead in it, and the death and the hades did give up the dead in them, and they were judged, each one according to their works;
field: 66020014
66
20
14
and the death and the hades were cast to the lake of the fire -- this `is' the second death;
field: 66020015
66
20
15
and if any one was not found written in the scroll of the life, he was cast to the lake of the fire.
field: 66021001
66
21
1
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth did pass away, and the sea is not any more;
field: 66021002
66
21
2
and I, John, saw the holy city -- new Jerusalem -- coming down from God out of the heaven, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband;
field: 66021003
66
21
3
and I heard a great voice out of the heaven, saying, `Lo, the tabernacle of God `is' with men, and He will tabernacle with them, and they shall be His peoples, and God Himself shall be with them -- their God,
field: 66021004
66
21
4
and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes, and the death shall not be any more, nor sorrow, nor crying, nor shall there be any more pain, because the first things did go away.'
field: 66021005
66
21
5
And He who is sitting upon the throne said, `Lo, new I make all things; and He saith to me, `Write, because these words are true and stedfast;'
field: 66021006
66
21
6
and He said to me, `It hath been done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End; I, to him who is thirsting, will give of the fountain of the water of the life freely;
field: 66021007
66
21
7
he who is overcoming shall inherit all things, and I will be to him -- a God, and he shall be to me -- the son,
field: 66021008
66
21
8
and to fearful, and unstedfast, and abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all the liars, their part `is' in the lake that is burning with fire and brimstone, which is a second death.'
field: 66021009
66
21
9
And there came unto me one of the seven messengers, who have the seven vials that are full of the seven last plagues, and he spake with me, saying, `Come, I will shew thee the bride of the Lamb -- the wife,'
field: 66021010
66
21
10
and he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and did shew to me the great city, the holy Jerusalem, coming down out of the heaven from God,
field: 66021011
66
21
11
having the glory of God, and her light `is' like a stone most precious, as a jasper stone clear as crystal,
field: 66021012
66
21
12
having also a wall great and high, having twelve gates, and at the gates twelve messengers, and names written thereon, which are `those' of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel,
field: 66021013
66
21
13
at the east three gates, at the north three gates, at the south three gates, at the west three gates;
field: 66021014
66
21
14
and the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
field: 66021015
66
21
15
And he who is speaking with me had a golden reed, that he may measure the city, and its gates, and its wall;
field: 66021016
66
21
16
and the city lieth square, and the length of it is as great as the breadth; and he did measure the city with the reed -- furlongs twelve thousand; the length, and the breadth, and the height, of it are equal;
field: 66021017
66
21
17
and he measured its wall, an hundred forty-four cubits, the measure of a man, that is, of the messenger;
field: 66021018
66
21
18
and the building of its wall was jasper, and the city `is' pure gold -- like to pure glass;
field: 66021019
66
21
19
and the foundations of the wall of the city with every precious stone have been adorned; the first foundation jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald;
field: 66021020
66
21
20
the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprasus; the eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst.
field: 66021021
66
21
21
And the twelve gates `are' twelve pearls, each several one of the gates was of one pearl; and the broad-place of the city `is' pure gold -- as transparent glass.
field: 66021022
66
21
22
And a sanctuary I did not see in it, for the Lord God, the Almighty, is its sanctuary, and the Lamb,
field: 66021023
66
21
23
and the city hath no need of the sun, nor of the moon, that they may shine in it; for the glory of God did lighten it, and the lamp of it `is' the Lamb;
field: 66021024
66
21
24
and the nations of the saved in its light shall walk, and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it,
field: 66021025
66
21
25
and its gates shall not at all be shut by day, for night shall not be there;
field: 66021026
66
21
26
and they shall bring the glory and the honour of the nations into it;
field: 66021027
66
21
27
and there may not at all enter into it any thing defiling and doing abomination, and a lie, but -- those written in the scroll of the life of the Lamb.
field: 66022001
66
22
1
And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, bright as crystal, going forth out of the throne of God and of the Lamb:
field: 66022002
66
22
2
in the midst of its broad place, and of the river on this side and on that, `is' a tree of life, yielding twelve fruits, in each several month rendering its fruits, and the leaves of the tree `are' for the service of the nations;
field: 66022003
66
22
3
and any curse there shall not be any more, and the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him,
field: 66022004
66
22
4
and they shall see His face, and His name `is' upon their foreheads,
field: 66022005
66
22
5
and night shall not be there, and they have no need of a lamp and light of a sun, because the Lord God doth give them light, and they shall reign -- to the ages of the ages.
field: 66022006
66
22
6
And he said to me, `These words `are' stedfast and true, and the Lord God of the holy prophets did send His messenger to shew to His servants the things that it behoveth to come quickly:
field: 66022007
66
22
7
Lo, I come quickly; happy `is' he who is keeping the words of the prophecy of this scroll.'
field: 66022008
66
22
8
And I, John, am he who is seeing these things and hearing, and when I heard and beheld, I fell down to bow before the feet of the messenger who is shewing me these things;
