And ye said, Behold, the LORD our God hath shewed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God doth talk with man, and he liveth.

11194

The plain also, and Jordan, and the coast thereof, from Chinnereth even unto the sea of the plain, even the salt sea, under Ashdothpisgah eastward.

11195

And thou shalt set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them for an offering unto the LORD.

11196

These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests which were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest's office.

11198

And these are the names of the sons of Gershon by their families; Libni, and Shimei.

11199

And the children of Reuben, Israel's eldest son, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, by their polls, every male from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

11200

When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out.

11201

And the priest shall pour of the oil into the palm of his own left hand:

11202

And Aaron took him Elisheba, daughter of Amminadab, sister of Naashon, to wife; and she bare him Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

11203

Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.

11204

And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:

11205

They have spoken words, swearing falsely in making a covenant: thus judgment springeth up as hemlock in the furrows of the field.

11206

They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.

11207

Which was the son of Jacob, which was the son of Isaac, which was the son of Abraham, which was the son of Thara, which was the son of Nachor,

11208

For the LORD hath turned away the excellency of Jacob, as the excellency of Israel: for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine branches.

11209

It is he that buildeth his stories in the heaven, and hath founded his troop in the earth; he that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name.

11210

And for the majesty that he gave him, all people, nations, and languages, trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew; and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he set up; and whom he would he put down.

11211

Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.

11212

For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.

11213

Silver spread into plates is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the workman, and of the hands of the founder: blue and purple is their clothing: they are all the work of cunning men.

11214

And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up, and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood it.

11215

Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel; Is not my way equal? are not your ways unequal?

11216

Even the LORD God of hosts; the LORD is his memorial.

11217

It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

11218

Wherefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will do judgment upon her graven images: and through all her land the wounded shall groan.

11219

Yea, thou shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst of the sea, or as he that lieth upon the top of a mast.

11220

Thou hast multiplied the nation, and not increased the joy: they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest, and as men rejoice when they divide the spoil.

11221

And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!

11222

But where are thy gods that thou hast made thee? let them arise, if they can save thee in the time of thy trouble: for according to the number of thy cities are thy gods, O Judah.

11223

Return, return, O Shulamite; return, return, that we may look upon thee. What will ye see in the Shulamite? As it were the company of two armies.

11224

Behold that which I have seen: it is good and comely for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labour that he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him: for it is his portion.

11225

And I went out by night by the gate of the valley, even before the dragon well, and to the dung port, and viewed the walls of Jerusalem, which were broken down, and the gates thereof were consumed with fire.

11226

They conceive mischief, and bring forth vanity, and their belly prepareth deceit.

11227

The increase of his house shall depart, and his goods shall flow away in the day of his wrath.

11228

So the posts that rode upon mules and camels went out, being hastened and pressed on by the king's commandment. And the decree was given at Shushan the palace.

11229

And at Anathoth, Nob, Ananiah,

11230

And of the sons of Pahathmoab; Adna, and Chelal, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattaniah, Bezaleel, and Binnui, and Manasseh.

11231

Moreover of Israel: of the sons of Parosh; Ramiah, and Jeziah, and Malchiah, and Miamin, and Eleazar, and Malchijah, and Benaiah.

11232

Also of the Levites; Jozabad, and Shimei, and Kelaiah, (the same is Kelita,) Pethahiah, Judah, and Eliezer.

11233

And after this did Jehoshaphat king of Judah join himself with Ahaziah king of Israel, who did very wickedly:

11234

Then went Solomon to Eziongeber, and to Eloth, at the sea side in the land of Edom.

11235

All these which were chosen to be porters in the gates were two hundred and twelve. These were reckoned by their genealogy in their villages, whom David and Samuel the seer did ordain in their set office.

11236

Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me, and then eat ye every man of his own vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his cistern:

11237

And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall yet again take root downward, and bear fruit upward.

11238

David said moreover, The LORD that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the LORD be with thee.

11239

And they took away their cattle; of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand, and of asses two thousand, and of men an hundred thousand.

11240

Micah his son, Reaia his son, Baal his son,

11241

And Jokim, and the men of Chozeba, and Joash, and Saraph, who had the dominion in Moab, and Jashubilehem. And these are ancient things.

11242

Then he said to Gehazi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thine hand, and go thy way: if thou meet any man, salute him not; and if any salute thee, answer him not again: and lay my staff upon the face of the child.

11243

But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your children, and will not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods, and worship them:

11244

And Reaiah the son of Shobal begat Jahath; and Jahath begat Ahumai, and Lahad. These are the families of the Zorathites.

11245

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

11246

Therefore now, LORD God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that thou promisedst him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel; so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked before me.

11248

And he was an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, beside the mischief that Hadad did: and he abhorred Israel, and reigned over Syria.

11249

David smote also Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his border at the river Euphrates.

11250

And it was so on the morrow, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the host in the morning watch, and slew the Ammonites until the heat of the day: and it came to pass, that they which remained were scattered, so that two of them were not left together.

11251

And Solomon sent to Hiram, saying,

11252

LORD, when thou wentest out of Seir, when thou marchedst out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heavens dropped, the clouds also dropped water.

11253

And Bathsheba said, Well; I will speak for thee unto the king.

11254

And Abner said unto David, I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel unto my lord the king, that they may make a league with thee, and that thou mayest reign over all that thine heart desireth. And David sent Abner away; and he went in peace.

11255

And about the time of her death the women that stood by her said unto her, Fear not; for thou hast born a son. But she answered not, neither did she regard it.

11256

Praise ye the LORD for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves.

11257

Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

11258

And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad called the altar Ed: for it shall be a witness between us that the LORD is God.

11259

And they smote all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them: there was not any left to breathe: and he burnt Hazor with fire.

11260

And the LORD said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them: for to morrow about this time will I deliver them up all slain before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.

11261

And the LORD said unto Joshua, Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thine hand; there shall not a man of them stand before thee.

11262

But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I am the LORD your God, which have separated you from other people.

11263

And I gave Gilead unto Machir.

11264

And their meat offering and their drink offerings for the bullocks, for the rams, and for the lambs, shall be according to their number, after the manner:

11265

Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:

11266

And the sons of Bela were Ard and Naaman: of Ard, the family of the Ardites: and of Naaman, the family of the Naamites.

11267

Now rise up, said I, and get you over the brook Zered. And we went over the brook Zered.

11268

One spoon of ten shekels of gold, full of incense:

11269

And the sons of Merari by their families; Mahli, and Mushi. These are the families of the Levites according to the house of their fathers.

11270

And ye shall perish among the heathen, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.

11271

Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, to morrow will I bring the locusts into thy coast:

11272

And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all;

11273

And these were the sons of Levi by their names; Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari.

11274

And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs:

11275

And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.

11276

And when it was day, he called unto him his disciples: and of them he chose twelve, whom also he named apostles;

11277

And the sons of Merari; Mahali and Mushi: these are the families of Levi according to their generations.

11278

But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.

11279

For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:

11280

O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? for your goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goeth away.

11281

Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was an herdman, and a gatherer of sycomore fruit:

11282

Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to Hamath the great: then go down to Gath of the Philistines: be they better than these kingdoms? or their border greater than your border?

11283

Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?

11284

And he shall pass through Judah; he shall overflow and go over, he shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel.

11285

How hath the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger, and cast down from heaven unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger!

11286

If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the LORD, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever.

11287

Do they provoke me to anger? saith the LORD: do they not provoke themselves to the confusion of their own faces?

11288

And Ezra the priest brought the law before the congregation both of men and women, and all that could hear with understanding, upon the first day of the seventh month.

11289

In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.

11290

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

11292

Then I saw that wisdom excelleth folly, as far as light excelleth darkness.

11293

And another dieth in the bitterness of his soul, and never eateth with pleasure.

11294

So Esther was taken unto king Ahasuerus into his house royal in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.

11295

He will not suffer me to take my breath, but filleth me with bitterness.

11296

After him repaired Nehemiah the son of Azbuk, the ruler of the half part of Bethzur, unto the place over against the sepulchres of David, and to the pool that was made, and unto the house of the mighty.

11297

And king Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty and two thousand oxen, and an hundred and twenty thousand sheep: so the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.

11298

They clave to their brethren, their nobles, and entered into a curse, and into an oath, to walk in God's law, which was given by Moses the servant of God, and to observe and do all the commandments of the LORD our Lord, and his judgments and his statutes;

11299

Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last, are they not written in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Iddo the seer against Jeroboam the son of Nebat?

11300

And the priests waited on their offices: the Levites also with instruments of musick of the LORD, which David the king had made to praise the LORD, because his mercy endureth for ever, when David praised by their ministry; and the priests sounded trumpets before them, and all Israel stood.

11301

And it came to pass, as the ark of the covenant of the LORD came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looking out at a window saw king David dancing and playing: and she despised him in her heart.

11302

And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem, which is Jebus; where the Jebusites were, the inhabitants of the land.

11303

And David said, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain. So Joab the son of Zeruiah went first up, and was chief.

11304

And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: and David houghed all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for an hundred chariots.

11305

And when he went in to his wife, she conceived, and bare a son, and he called his name Beriah, because it went evil with his house.

11306

But camest back, and hast eaten bread and drunk water in the place, of the which the LORD did say to thee, Eat no bread, and drink no water; thy carcase shall not come unto the sepulchre of thy fathers.

11307

And the sons of Jehaleleel; Ziph, and Ziphah, Tiria, and Asareel.

11308

And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities, which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times did Joash beat him, and recovered the cities of Israel.

11309

And when she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught him by the feet: but Gehazi came near to thrust her away. And the man of God said, Let her alone; for her soul is vexed within her: and the LORD hath hid it from me, and hath not told me.

11310

And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again.

11311

And Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son that was lame of his feet. He was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel, and his nurse took him up, and fled: and it came to pass, as she made haste to flee, that he fell, and became lame. And his name was Mephibosheth.

11312

These were the chief of the officers that were over Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty, which bare rule over the people that wrought in the work.

11313

But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no bondmen: but they were men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots, and his horsemen.

11314

And, behold, Cushi came; and Cushi said, Tidings, my lord the king: for the LORD hath avenged thee this day of all them that rose up against thee.

11315

That the LORD appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared unto him at Gibeon.

11316

And they drew out the staves, that the ends of the staves were seen out in the holy place before the oracle, and they were not seen without: and there they are unto this day.

11317

And those officers provided victual for king Solomon, and for all that came unto king Solomon's table, every man in his month: they lacked nothing.

11319

And ye shall make no league with the inhabitants of this land; ye shall throw down their altars: but ye have not obeyed my voice: why have ye done this?

11320

And the LORD said unto him, Peace be unto thee; fear not: thou shalt not die.

11321

And the priest, whom he shall anoint, and whom he shall consecrate to minister in the priest's office in his father's stead, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen clothes, even the holy garments:

11322

And Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, stood before it in those days,) saying, Shall I yet again go out to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother, or shall I cease? And the LORD said, Go up; for to morrow I will deliver them into thine hand.

11323

Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.

11324

And the children of Benjamin gathered themselves together after Abner, and became one troop, and stood on the top of an hill.

11325

And the men of the garrison answered Jonathan and his armourbearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will shew you a thing. And Jonathan said unto his armourbearer, Come up after me: for the LORD hath delivered them into the hand of Israel.

11326

If the priest that is anointed do sin according to the sin of the people; then let him bring for his sin, which he hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish unto the LORD for a sin offering.

11327

And the LORD shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither the LORD shall lead you.

11328

And after him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.

11330

And the coast of the Amorites was from the going up to Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward.

11331

And the LORD spake suddenly unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam, Come out ye three unto the tabernacle of the congregation. And they three came out.

11332

And the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD:

11333

And he prayed unto the LORD, and said, I pray thee, O LORD, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.

11334

And over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira the son of Enan.

11335

And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp.

11336

For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.

11338

For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:

11339

And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away.

11340

After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:

11341

Behold, I stand by the well of water; and it shall come to pass, that when the virgin cometh forth to draw water, and I say to her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water of thy pitcher to drink;

11342

Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,

11345

Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.

11346

But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.

11347

And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.

11348

That I may not seem as if I would terrify you by letters.

11349

In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.

11350

Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.

11351

And it came to pass, that when they had made an end of eating the grass of the land, then I said, O Lord GOD, forgive, I beseech thee: by whom shall Jacob arise? for he is small.

11352

Afterwards the spirit took me up, and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that I had seen went up from me.

11353

For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue him.

11354

And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days.

11355

And within were hooks, an hand broad, fastened round about: and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering.

11356

That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.

11357

And it shall be unto them as a false divination in their sight, to them that have sworn oaths: but he will call to remembrance the iniquity, that they may be taken.

11358

And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyard.

11359

For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil:

11360

This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Chebar; and I knew that they were the cherubims.

11361

And say unto the people of the land, Thus saith the Lord GOD of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and of the land of Israel; They shall eat their bread with carefulness, and drink their water with astonishment, that her land may be desolate from all that is therein, because of the violence of all them that dwell therein.

11362

Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!

11363

The rings, and nose jewels,

11364

Their quiver is as an open sepulchre, they are all mighty men.

11365

Is not Calno as Carchemish? is not Hamath as Arpad? is not Samaria as Damascus?

11366

To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.

11367

Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?

11369

A man shall be commended according to his wisdom: but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.

11370

He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.

11371

For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks.

11372

For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.

11373

And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house.

11374

Did I fear a great multitude, or did the contempt of families terrify me, that I kept silence, and went not out of the door?

11375

He that is ready to slip with his feet is as a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease.

11376

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.

11377

Which rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave?

11378

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.

11379

They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought.

11380

Whatsoever is commanded by the God of heaven, let it be diligently done for the house of the God of heaven: for why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons?

11381

And the priests and the Levites purified themselves, and purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.

11382

And that they should keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the charge of the holy place, and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brethren, in the service of the house of the LORD.

11383

And now, LORD, thou art God, and hast promised this goodness unto thy servant:

11384

Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite, Abiezer the Antothite,

11385

Notwithstanding the LORD turned not from the fierceness of his great wrath, wherewith his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the provocations that Manasseh had provoked him withal.

11386

But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed.

11387

11444

11455

11457

In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men,

11458

That thou mayest buy speedily with this money bullocks, rams, lambs, with their meat offerings and their drink offerings, and offer them upon the altar of the house of your God which is in Jerusalem.

11459

That search may be made in the book of the records of thy fathers: so shalt thou find in the book of the records, and know that this city is a rebellious city, and hurtful unto kings and provinces, and that they have moved sedition within the same of old time: for which cause was this city destroyed.

And that we would not give our daughters unto the people of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons:

11463

11467

These were the potters, and those that dwelt among plants and hedges: there they dwelt with the king for his work.

11468

And Ahab made a grove; and Ahab did more to provoke the LORD God of Israel to anger than all the kings of Israel that were before him.

11481

11483

And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the garment, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had: and they brought them unto the valley of Achor.

11488

And thou shalt take the ram of the consecration, and seethe his flesh in the holy place.

11489

And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfuls.

11490

And the priest shall burn it upon the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire unto the LORD.

And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for he had straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you.

This twenty years have I been with thee; thy ewes and thy she goats have not cast their young, and the rams of thy flock have I not eaten.

11494

And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.

11495

11499

And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counseller; and he was a good man, and a just:

11500

And he put forth a parable to those which were bidden, when he marked how they chose out the chief rooms; saying unto them,

11501

All thy strong holds shall be like fig trees with the firstripe figs: if they be shaken, they shall even fall into the mouth of the eater.

11502

Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;

11503

Then said these men, We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God.

11504

He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king, because they refused to return.

11505

And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel was first: that the princes might give accounts unto them, and the king should have no damage.

11506

Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the LORD, whose name is The God of hosts.

11507

So the king of the south shall come into his kingdom, and shall return into his own land.

11508

Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort.

11509

And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old.

11510

This is the interpretation, O king, and this is the decree of the most High, which is come upon my lord the king:

Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in the province of Babylon.

They give gifts to all whores: but thou givest thy gifts to all thy lovers, and hirest them, that they may come unto thee on every side for thy whoredom.

11513

Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to escape; and though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them.

11514

Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children.

11515

For the Lord will not cast off for ever:

11516

Saying to a stock, Thou art my father; and to a stone, Thou hast brought me forth: for they have turned their back unto me, and not their face: but in the time of their trouble they will say, Arise, and save us.

11518

Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.

11519

For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.

11520

Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth.

11521

If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for yielding pacifieth great offences.

11522

Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man, neither will he help the evil doers:

11523

{Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite.} O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:

11524

Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good upon me; as also the king's words that he had spoken unto me. And they said, Let us rise up and build. So they strengthened their hands for this good work.

11525

And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, that they may array the man withal whom the king delighteth to honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour.

11536

And Penuel the father of Gedor, and Ezer the father of Hushah. These are the sons of Hur, the firstborn of Ephratah, the father of Bethlehem.

11537

11544

And Elon the Zebulonite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the country of Zebulun.

11550

11782

And the LORD'S tribute of the sheep was six hundred and threescore and fifteen.

11783

11786

And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,

11792

And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts.

11794

Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I punished the goats: for the LORD of hosts hath visited his flock the house of Judah, and hath made them as his goodly horse in the battle.

11795

And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.

11796

When they stood, these stood; and when they were lifted up, these lifted up themselves also: for the spirit of the living creature was in them.

11797

As for thee, O king, thy thoughts came into thy mind upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth secrets maketh known to thee what shall come to pass.

For, behold, I will send serpents, cockatrices, among you, which will not be charmed, and they shall bite you, saith the LORD.

11806

Then said the LORD unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shearjashub thy son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller's field;

11807

While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.

11808

Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

11809

For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.

11810

An ungodly witness scorneth judgment: and the mouth of the wicked devoureth iniquity.

11811

Are thy days as the days of man? are thy years as man's days,

11813

The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and the stout lion's whelps are scattered abroad.

11814

And in every province, and in every city, whithersoever the king's commandment and his decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a good day. And many of the people of the land became Jews; for the fear of the Jews fell upon them.

11815

But the gate of the fountain repaired Shallun the son of Colhozeh, the ruler of part of Mizpah; he built it, and covered it, and set up the doors thereof, the locks thereof, and the bars thereof, and the wall of the pool of Siloah by the king's garden, and unto the stairs that go down from the city of David.

11816

And offered at the dedication of this house of God an hundred bullocks, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and for a sin offering for all Israel, twelve he goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.

11820

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.

11821

And they set the altar upon his bases; for fear was upon them because of the people of those countries: and they offered burnt offerings thereon unto the LORD, even burnt offerings morning and evening.

11822

And they told to Mordecai Esther's words.

11823

And the rest of the people, the priests, the Levites, the porters, the singers, the Nethinims, and all they that had separated themselves from the people of the lands unto the law of God, their wives, their sons, and their daughters, every one having knowledge, and having understanding;

11824

The children of Bezai, three hundred twenty and three.

11825

Then hear thou from heaven, and forgive the sin of thy servants, and of thy people Israel, when thou hast taught them the good way, wherein they should walk; and send rain upon thy land, which thou hast given unto thy people for an inheritance.

11828

And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, wherein Solomon had built the house of the LORD, and his own house,

Shammoth the Harorite, Helez the Pelonite,

11831

Nohah the fourth, and Rapha the fifth.

11833

Laadan his son, Ammihud his son, Elishama his son,

11834

And the sons of Bela; Ezbon, and Uzzi, and Uzziel, and Jerimoth, and Iri, five; heads of the house of their fathers, mighty men of valour; and were reckoned by their genealogies twenty and two thousand and thirty and four.

11845

And now this blessing which thine handmaid hath brought unto my lord, let it even be given unto the young men that follow my lord.

11846

According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.

11847

And he took a yoke of oxen, and hewed them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the coasts of Israel by the hands of messengers, saying, Whosoever cometh not forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done unto his oxen.

11848

Helez the Paltite, Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite,

11851

And, behold, the servants of David and Joab came from pursuing a troop, and brought in a great spoil with them: but Abner was not with David in Hebron; for he had sent him away, and he was gone in peace.

11852

And the angel of God said unto him, Take the flesh and the unleavened cakes, and lay them upon this rock, and pour out the broth. And he did so.

11853

11858

And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto Misrephothmaim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none remaining.

11864

11873

Even such as he is able to get, the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, with the meat offering: and the priest shall make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed before the LORD.

11874

And they shall cover the face of the earth, that one cannot be able to see the earth: and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for you out of the field:

11884

Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.

11885

And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:

11886

The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.

11887

Then he said unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and have returned to provoke me to anger: and, lo, they put the branch to their nose.

11894

O ye children of Benjamin, gather yourselves to flee out of the midst of Jerusalem, and blow the trumpet in Tekoa, and set up a sign of fire in Bethhaccerem: for evil appeareth out of the north, and great destruction.

11895

Destruction upon destruction is cried; for the whole land is spoiled: suddenly are my tents spoiled, and my curtains in a moment.

11896

The mighty man, and the man of war, the judge, and the prophet, and the prudent, and the ancient,

11897

Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.

11898

O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.

11899

{To the chief Musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David.} O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

11900

He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him.

11901

The wicked man travaileth with pain all his days, and the number of years is hidden to the oppressor.

11902

11921

And the porch before the temple of the house, twenty cubits was the length thereof, according to the breadth of the house; and ten cubits was the breadth thereof before the house.

11922

11923

And when all the people came to cause David to eat meat while it was yet day, David sware, saying, So do God to me, and more also, if I taste bread, or ought else, till the sun be down.

11924

11933

And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

11934

In the mountains, and in the valleys, and in the plains, and in the springs, and in the wilderness, and in the south country; the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites:

11935

And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life,

11938

And upon the golden altar they shall spread a cloth of blue, and cover it with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put to the staves thereof:

11939

And Moses gave unto them, even to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and unto half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with the cities thereof in the coasts, even the cities of the country round about.

11940

From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbath, a land of rivers of waters.

11941

And of it he shall offer one out of the whole oblation for an heave offering unto the LORD, and it shall be the priest's that sprinkleth the blood of the peace offerings.

11942

And the Avims which dwelt in Hazerim, even unto Azzah, the Caphtorims, which came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead.)

11950

Else, if thou wilt not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thy houses: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground whereon they are.

11953

PERES; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.

11954

Who would not fear thee, O King of nations? for to thee doth it appertain: forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like unto thee.

11955

And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour them, because of their own counsels.

11956

Then shall ye know that I am the LORD, when their slain men shall be among their idols round about their altars, upon every high hill, in all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and under every thick oak, the place where they did offer sweet savour to all their idols.

11957

When thy wares went forth out of the seas, thou filledst many people; thou didst enrich the kings of the earth with the multitude of thy riches and of thy merchandise.

11958
