And Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did evil more than did the nations whom Jehovah destroyed before the children of Israel.

And humbled not himself before the LORD, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but Amon trespassed more and more.

And he said unto the Levites that taught all Israel, that were holy unto Jehovah, Put the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David king of Israel did build; there shall no more be a burden upon your shoulders: now serve Jehovah your God, and his people Israel.

And more than this, all the great men of Judah and the priests and the people made their sin great, turning to all the disgusting ways of the nations; and they made unclean the house of the Lord which he had made holy in Jerusalem.

In the second month of the second year after they arrived at God’s house in Jerusalem, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, Jeshua son of Jozadak, and the rest of their brothers, including the priests, the Levites, and all who had returned to Jerusalem from the captivity, began to build. They appointed the Levites who were 20 years old or more to supervise the work on the Lord’s house.

Let the king also be aware that if this city is built and its walls are completed, no more tax, custom, or toll will be paid, and the royal treasury will suffer loss.

Give an order now, that these men are to do nothing more, and that the building of the town is to be stopped, till I give an order.

Be diligent and take precautions so that you do not neglect your responsibility in this matter. Why should the kingdom sustain any more damage?

And whatsoever more shall be needful for the house of thy God, which thou shalt have occasion to bestow, bestow it out of the king's treasure house.

And Ezra the priest stood up, and said unto them, "Ye have transgressed, that have taken strange wives, to make the trespass of Israel yet more:

Then said I unto them, Ye see the distress that we are in, how Jerusalem lieth waste, and the gates thereof are burned with fire: come, and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we be no more a reproach.

And I said, What you are doing is not good: is it not the more necessary for you to go in the fear of our God, because of the shame which the nations may put on us?

So they said, "We will restore it and will not request [anything more]. So we will do as you say." Then I called the priests and made them take an oath to do this promise.

And more than this, a hundred and fifty of the Jews and the rulers were guests at my table, in addition to those who came to us from the nations round about us.

Now when word was given to Sanballat and Tobiah and to Geshem the Arabian and to the rest of our haters, that I had done the building of the wall and that there were no more broken places in it (though even then I had not put up the doors in the doorways);

For they were all minded to make us afraid and thought, "They shall withdraw their hands from the work, that they shall not labour." Howbeit I strengthened my hand the more.

I put my brother Hanani, with Hananiah the commander of the fortress, in charge of Jerusalem, for Hananiah was a more faithful and God-fearing man than many [of the others].

“Yet You were patient with them for many years,
And admonished them and warned them by Your Spirit through Your prophets;
Still they would not listen.
Therefore You gave them into the hand (power) of the peoples of the lands.

Did not your fathers thus, and did not our God bring all this evil upon us, and upon this city? yet ye bring more wrath upon Israel by profaning the sabbath.

Then I testified against them, and said unto them, Why lodge ye about the wall? if ye do so again, I will lay hands on you. From that time forth came they no more on the sabbath.

Before this day is over, the noble women of Persia and Media who hear about the queen’s act will say the same thing to all the king’s officials, resulting in more contempt and fury.

If it please the king, let there go a royal commandment from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, that it be not altered, That Vashti come no more before king Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate unto another that is better than she.

In the evening she went, and on the morrow she returned into the second house of the women, to the custody of Shaashgaz, the king's chamberlain, which kept the concubines: she came in unto the king no more, except the king delighted in her, and that she were called by name.

And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favour in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti.

Then Mordecai commanded to answer Esther, Think not with thyself that thou shalt escape in the king's house, more than all the Jews.

“What’s more,” Haman added, “Queen Esther invited no one but me to join the king at the banquet she had prepared. I am invited again tomorrow to join her with the king.

So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself?

Haman told himself, "Whom would the king desire to honor more than me?" Haman answered the king, "For a man whom the king desires to honor,

And Esther spake yet more before the king, and fell down at his feet, and besought him, that he would put away the wickedness of Haman the Agagite, and his device that he had imagined against the Jews.

For Mordecai was great and respected in the king’s palace, and his fame spread throughout all the provinces; for the man Mordecai became greater and greater.

And the king said unto queen Esther, "The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men at the castle of Susa, and the ten sons of Haman: What shall they do in the other lands of the king? What is thy petition, that it may be given thee? And what requirest thou more to be done?"

There, are those let out free which have been in prison, so that they hear no more the voice of the oppressor.

Which long for death, but it cometh not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures;

and search for it more than for treasure. Which also would be exceedingly glad, and rejoice if they found their grave.

How much more them that dwell in houses of clay, Whose foundation is in the dust, Who are crushed before the moth!

Yea, thou shalt know that thy dwelling place shall be in rest: thou shalt behold thy substance, and be no more punished for sin.

For then its weight would be more than the sand of the seas: because of this my words have been uncontrolled.

My days pass more swiftly than a weaver’s shuttle;
they come to an end without hope.

O remember that my life is wind: mine eye shall no more see good.

The eye of him that hath seen me shall see me no more: thine eyes are upon me, and I am not.

As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more.

He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.

So my inner self will choose strangling-- death more than my {existence}.

I can see no remedy. I shall live no more. O spare me then, for my days are but vain.

And why do you not pardon my transgression and take away my guilt? For now I shall lie in the dust, and you will seek me, but {I will be no more}."

They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; And the tent of the wicked shall be no more.

"My days are more swift than a runner: they are gone, and have seen no good thing.

Let him take his rod away from me; yea, let him make me no more afraid of him,

and disclose his wise secrets? After all, there's so much more to understanding. So be aware that God will exact from you less than your sin deserves."

Then shouldest thou forget thy misery, and think no more upon it, than upon the waters that run by.

I also have a heart like you, I am not fallen more than you, And with whom is there not like these?

According to your knowledge I have known -- also I. I am not fallen more than you.

Will you be hard on a leaf in flight before the wind? will you make a dry stem go more quickly on its way?

So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.

How much more abominable and filthy is man, which drinketh iniquity like water?

Shall not thy vain words come yet to an end? Or, hast thou yet any more to say?

And what is more, [if] I have truly erred, my error remains with me.

He vanisheth as a dream, so that he can no more be found, and passeth away as a vision in the night.

The eye also which saw him shall see him no more; neither shall his place any more behold him.

so that he shall no more see the rivers, and brooks of honey and butter.

Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

He will certainly accomplish what He has decreed for me,
and He has many more things like these in mind.

The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.

They are exalted for a little, and are no more; they are laid low; like all other are they gathered, and are cut off as the tops of the ears of corn.

How much more then man, that is but corruption, and the son of man, which is but a worm?"

His house has no more strength than a spider's thread, or a watchman's tent.

He lieth down rich, but will do so no more; he openeth his eyes, and he is not.

Corals and crystal are no more remembered; yea, the acquisition of wisdom is above rubies.

My honor increased more and more, and my bow was ever the stronger in my hand.

"Fearfulness is turned against me. Mine honour vanisheth away more swiftly than wind, and my prosperity departeth hence like as it were a cloud.

So these three men gave no more answers to Job, because he seemed to himself to be right.

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;

but when he saw that there had been no response from those three, he got even more angry.

They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking.

When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;)

“For God speaks once,
And even twice, yet no one notices it [including you, Job].

Insomuch that his body is clean consumed away, and his bones appear no more.

Let him return to the days of his youthful strength.

What's more, God truly does not act wickedly, and Shaddai does not pervert justice.

How much less to him that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? for they all are the work of his hands.

For he will not lay upon man more than right; that he should enter into judgment with God.

Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more:

That which I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more.

Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's?

That thou sayest, What advantage will it be unto thee? And , What profit shall I have, more than if I had sinned?

Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?

Job uselessly opens his mouth
And multiplies words without knowledge [drawing the worthless conclusion that the righteous have no more advantage than the wicked].”

Be patient with me a little longer, and I will inform you,
for there is still more to be said on God’s behalf.

I will open unto thee yet more of mine understanding, and prove my maker righteous.

And what's more, he allured you {out of distress} [into] a broad place, [where] in place of it [was] no constraint; and [what] was set on your table is full of fatness.

So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.

No one could find more beautiful women in the whole land than Job's daughters. Their father gave them their inheritance along with their brothers.
