And all the people shall say, Amen. because The LORD shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; {because} of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsa ken me. because Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; {because} thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he com manded thee: because {Because} thou servedst not the LORD thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all [things]; because So that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat: {because} he hath nothing left him in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee in all thy gates. because And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude; {because} thou wouldest not obey the voice of the LORD thy God. because Then men shall say, {Because} they have forsaken the covenant of the LORD God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt: because Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall befall them; so that they will say in that day, Are not these evils come upon us, {because} our God [is] not among us? because For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt [yourselves], and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall you in the latter days; {because} ye will do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke hi m to anger through the work of your hands. because {Because} I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness unto our God. because And when the LORD saw [it], he abhorred [them], {because} of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters. because For it [is] not a vain thing for you; {because} it [is] your life: and through this thing ye shall prolong [your] days in the land, whither ye go over Jordan to possess it. because Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah-Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; {because} ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of Israel. because {Because} ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah-Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of Israel. because And he provided the first part for himself, {because} there, [in] a portion of the lawgiver, [was he] seated; and he came with the heads of the people, he executed the justice of the LORD, and his judgments with Israel. because And she said unto the men, I know that the LORD hath given you the land, and that your terror is fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land faint {because} of you. because And as soon as we had heard [these things], our hearts did melt, neither did there remain any more courage in any man, {because} of you: for the LORD your God, he [is] God in heaven above, and in earth beneath. because And they said unto Joshua, Truly the LORD hath delivered into our hands all the land; for even all the inhabitants of the country do faint {because} of us. because And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites, which [were] on the side of Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites, which [were] by the sea, heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of Jordan from before the chi ldren of Israel, until we were passed over, that their heart melted, neither was there spirit in them any more, {because} of the children of Israel. because For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people [that were] men of war, which came out of Egypt, were consumed, {because} they obeyed not the voice of the LORD: unto whom the LORD sware that he would not show them the land, which the LORD sware unto their fathers that he would give us, a land that floweth with milk and honey. because And their children, [whom] he raised up in their stead, them Joshua circumcised: for they were uncircumcised, {because} they had not circumcised them by the way. because Now Jericho was straitly shut up {because} of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in. because And the city shall be accursed, [even] it, and all that [are] therein, to the LORD: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that [are] with her in the house, {because} she hid the messengers that we sent. because And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father's household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel [even] unto this day; {because} she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho. because Therefore the children of Israel could not stand before their enemies, [but] turned [their] backs before their enemies, {because} they were accursed: neither will I be with you any more, except ye destroy the accursed from among you. because And it shall be, [that] he that is taken with the accursed thing shall be burnt with fire, he and all that he hath: {because} he hath transgressed the covenant of the LORD, and because he hath wrought folly in Israel. because And it shall be, [that] he that is taken with the accursed thing shall be burnt with fire, he and all that he hath: because he hath transgressed the covenant of the LORD, and {because} he hath wrought folly in Israel. because And they said unto him, From a very far country thy servants are come {because} of the name of the LORD thy God: for we have heard the fame of him, and all that he did in Egypt, because And the children of Israel smote them not, {because} the princes of the congregation had sworn unto them by the LORD God of Israel. And all the congregation murmured against the princes. because This we will do to them; we will even let them live, lest wrath be upon us, {because} of the oath which we sware unto them. because And they answered Joshua, and said, {Because} it was certainly told thy servants, how that the LORD thy God commanded his servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you, therefore we were sore afraid of our lives because of you, and have done this thing. because And they answered Joshua, and said, Because it was certainly told thy servants, how that the LORD thy God commanded his servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you, therefore we were sore afraid of our lives {because} of you, and have done this thing. because That they feared greatly, {because} Gibeon [was] a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it [was] greater than Ai, and all the men thereof [were] mighty. because That they feared greatly, because Gibeon [was] a great city, as one of the royal cities, and {because} it [was] greater than Ai, and all the men thereof [were] mighty. because And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, {because} the LORD God of Israel fought for Israel. because 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 hock their horses, and burn their chariots with fire. because And Moses sware on that day, saying, Surely the land whereon thy feet have trodden shall be thine inheritance, and thy children's for ever, {because} thou hast wholly followed the LORD my God. because Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite unto this day, {because} that he wholly followed the LORD God of Israel. because There was also a lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he [was] the firstborn of Joseph; [to wit], for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead: {because} he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan. because {Because} the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons: and the rest of Manasseh's sons had the land of Gilead. because And if the avenger of blood pursue after him, then they shall not deliver the slayer up into his hand; {because} he smote his neighbour unwittingly, and hated him not beforetime. because And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the children of Manasseh, This day we perceive that the LORD [is] among us, {because} ye have not committed this trespass a gainst the LORD: now ye have delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of the LORD. because And ye have seen all that the LORD your God hath done unto all these nations {because} of you; for the LORD your God [is] he that hath fought for you. because And the LORD was with Judah; and he drave out [the inhabitants of] the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, {because} they had chariots of iron. because And when the LORD raised them up judges, then the LORD was with the judge, and delivered them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: for it repented the LORD {because} of their groanings by reason of them that oppre ssed them and vexed them. because And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel; and he said, {Because} that this people hath transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened unto my voice; because And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, {because} they had done evil in the sight of the LORD. because Curse ye Meroz, said the angel of the LORD, curse ye bitterly the inhabitants thereof; {because} they came not to the help of the LORD, to the help of the LORD against the mighty. because And the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel: [and] {because} of the Midianites the children of Israel made them the dens which [are] in the mountains, and caves, and strong holds. because And Israel was greatly impoverished {because} of the Midianites; and the children of Israel cried unto the LORD. because And it came to pass, when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD {because} of the Midianites, because And when Gideon perceived that he [was] an angel of the LORD, Gideon said, Alas, O Lord GOD! for {because} I have seen an angel of the LORD face to face. because Then Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as the LORD had said unto him: and [so] it was, {because} he feared his father's household, and the men of the city, that he could not do [it] by day, that he did [it] by night. because Then the men of the city said unto Joash, Bring out thy son, that he may die: because he hath cast down the altar of Baal, and {because} he hath cut down the grove that [was] by it. because Then the men of the city said unto Joash, Bring out thy son, that he may die: {because} he hath cast down the altar of Baal, and because he hath cut down the grove that [was] by it. because And Joash said unto all that stood against him, Will ye plead for Baal? will ye save him? he that will plead for him, let him be put to death whilst [it is yet] morning: if he [be] a god, let him plead for himself, {because} [one] hath cast down his altar. because Therefore on that day he called him Jerubbaal, saying, Let Baal plead against him, {because} he hath thrown down his altar. because And he said unto Jether his firstborn, Up, [and] slay them. But the youth drew not his sword: for he feared, {because} he [was] yet a youth. because And Gideon said unto them, I would desire a request of you, that ye would give me every man the earrings of his prey. (For they had golden earrings, {because} they [were] Ishmaelites.) because And ye are risen up against my father's house this day, and have slain his sons, threescore and ten persons, upon one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his maidservant, king over the men of Shechem, {because} he [is] your broth er;) because And the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, saying, We have sinned against thee, both {because} we have forsaken our God, and also served Baalim. because And the king of the children of Ammon answered unto the messengers of Jephthah, {Because} Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from Arnon even unto Jabbok, and unto Jordan: now therefore restore those [lands] again peaceably. because Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim: and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, {because} they said, Ye Gileadites [are] fugitives of Ephraim among the Ephraimites, [and] among the Manassites. because And Manoah said unto his wife, We shall surely die, {because} we have seen God. because And she wept before him the seven days, while their feast lasted: and it came to pass on the seventh day, that he told her, {because} she lay sore upon him: and she told the riddle to the children of her people. because Then the Philistines said, Who hath done this? And they answered, Samson, the son in law of the Timnite, {because} he had taken his wife, and given her to his companion. And the Philistines came up, and burnt her and her father with fir e. because And [there was] no deliverer, {because} it [was] far from Zidon, and they had no business with [any] man; and it was in the valley that [lieth] by Bethrehob. And they built a city, and dwelt therein. because So the children of Benjamin saw that they were smitten: for the men of Israel gave place to the Benjamites, {because} they trusted unto the liers in wait which they had set beside Gibeah. because And the people repented them for Benjamin, {because} that the LORD had made a breach in the tribes of Israel. because And it shall be, when their fathers or their brethren come unto us to complain, that we will say unto them, Be favourable unto them for our sakes: {because} we reserved not to each man his wife in the war: for ye did not give unto them at this time, [that] ye should be guilty. because <1SA1 -6> And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, {because} the LORD had shut up her womb. because <1SA1 -20> Wherefore it came to pass, when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, [saying], {Because} I have asked him of the LORD. because <1SA2 -1> And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in the LORD, mine horn is exalted in the LORD: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; {because} I rejoice in thy salvation. because <1SA2 -25> If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against the LORD, who shall entreat for him? Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, {because} the LORD would slay them. because <1SA3 -13> For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever for the iniquity which he knoweth; {because} his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not. because <1SA4 -21> And she named the child Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel: {because} the ark of God was taken, and because of her father in law and her husband. because <1SA4 -21> And she named the child Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel: because the ark of God was taken, and {because} of her father in law and her husband. because <1SA6 -19> And he smote the men of Bethshemesh, {because} they had looked into the ark of the LORD, even he smote of the people fifty thousand and threescore and ten men: and the people lamented, because the LORD had smitten [many] of the people w ith a great slaughter. because <1SA6 -19> And he smote the men of Bethshemesh, because they had looked into the ark of the LORD, even he smote of the people fifty thousand and threescore and ten men: and the people lamented, {because} the LORD had smitten [many] of the people w ith a great slaughter. because <1SA8 -18> And ye shall cry out in that day {because} of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day. because <1SA9 -13> As soon as ye be come into the city, ye shall straightway find him, before he go up to the high place to eat: for the people will not eat until he come, {because} he doth bless the sacrifice; [and] afterwards they eat that be bidden. No w therefore get you up; for about this time ye shall find him. because <1SA9 -16> To morrow about this time I will send thee a man out of the land of Benjamin, and thou shalt anoint him [to be] captain over my people Israel, that he may save my people out of the hand of the Philistines: for I have looked upon my peop le, {because} their cry is come unto me. because <1SA10 -1> Then Samuel took a vial of oil, and poured [it] upon his head, and kissed him, and said, [Is it] not {because} the LORD hath anointed thee [to be] captain over his inheritance? because <1SA12 -10> And they cried unto the LORD, and said, We have sinned, {because} we have forsaken the LORD, and have served Baalim and Ashtaroth: but now deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, and we will serve thee. because <1SA12 -22> For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: {because} it hath pleased the LORD to make you his people. because <1SA13 -11> And Samuel said, What hast thou done? And Saul said, {Because} I saw that the people were scattered from me, and [that] thou camest not within the days appointed, and [that] the Philistines gathered themselves together at Michmash; because <1SA13 -14> But now thy kingdom shall not continue: the LORD hath sought him a man after his own heart, and the LORD hath commanded him [to be] captain over his people, {because} thou hast not kept [that] which the LORD commanded thee. because <1SA14 -29> Then said Jonathan, My father hath troubled the land: see, I pray you, how mine eyes have been enlightened, {because} I tasted a little of this honey. because <1SA15 -23> For rebellion [is as] the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness [is as] iniquity and idolatry. {Because} thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from [being] king. because <1SA15 -24> And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD, and thy words: {because} I feared the people, and obeyed their voice. because <1SA16 -7> But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; {because} I have refused him: for [the LORD seeth] not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the hea rt. because <1SA17 -32> And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail {because} of him; thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine. because <1SA18 -3> Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, {because} he loved him as his own soul. because <1SA18 -12> And Saul was afraid of David, {because} the LORD was with him, and was departed from Saul. because <1SA18 -16> But all Israel and Judah loved David, {because} he went out and came in before them. because <1SA19 -4> And Jonathan spake good of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and {because} his works [have been] to thee-ward very good: because <1SA19 -4> And Jonathan spake good of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; {because} he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works [have been] to thee-ward very good: because <1SA20 -17> And Jonathan caused David to swear again, {because} he loved him: for he loved him as he loved his own soul. because <1SA20 -18> Then Jonathan said to David, To morrow [is] the new moon: and thou shalt be missed, {because} thy seat will be empty. because <1SA20 -34> So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and did eat no meat the second day of the month: for he was grieved for David, {because} his father had done him shame. because <1SA21 -8> And David said unto Ahimelech, And is there not here under thine hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, {because} the king's business required haste. because <1SA22 -17> And the king said unto the footmen that stood about him, Turn, and slay the priests of the LORD; {because} their hand also [is] with David, and because they knew when he fled, and did not show it to me. But the servants of the king wou ld not put forth their hand to fall upon the priests of the LORD. because <1SA22 -17> And the king said unto the footmen that stood about him, Turn, and slay the priests of the LORD; because their hand also [is] with David, and {because} they knew when he fled, and did not show it to me. But the servants of the king wou ld not put forth their hand to fall upon the priests of the LORD. because <1SA24 -5> And it came to pass afterward, that David's heart smote him, {because} he had cut off Saul's skirt. because <1SA25 -28> I pray thee, forgive the trespass of thine handmaid: for the LORD will certainly make my lord a sure house; {because} my lord fighteth the battles of the LORD, and evil hath not been found in thee [all] thy days. because <1SA26 -12> So David took the spear and the cruse of water from Saul's bolster; and they gat them away, and no man saw [it], nor knew [it], neither awaked: for they [were] all asleep; {because} a deep sleep from the LORD was fallen upon them. because <1SA26 -16> This thing [is] not good that thou hast done. [As] the LORD liveth, ye [are] worthy to die, {because} ye have not kept your master, the LORD'S anointed. And now see where the king's spear [is], and the cruse of water that [was] at his bolster. because <1SA26 -21> Then said Saul, I have sinned: return, my son David: for I will no more do thee harm, {because} my soul was precious in thine eyes this day: behold, I have played the fool, and have erred exceedingly. because <1SA28 -18> {Because} thou obeyedst not the voice of the LORD, nor executedst his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore hath the LORD done this thing unto thee this day. because <1SA28 -20> Then Saul fell straightway all along on the earth, and was sore afraid, {because} of the words of Samuel: and there was no strength in him; for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night. because <1SA30 -6> And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, {because} the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God. because <1SA30 -13> And David said unto him, To whom [belongest] thou? and whence [art] thou? And he said, I [am] a young man of Egypt, servant to an Amalekite; and my master left me, {because} three days ago I fell sick. because <1SA30 -16> And when he had brought him down, behold, [they were] spread abroad upon all the earth, eating and drinking, and dancing, {because} of all the great spoil that they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of J udah. because <1SA30 -22> Then answered all the wicked men and [men] of Belial, of those that went with David, and said, {Because} they went not with us, we will not give them [ought] of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his child ren, that they may lead [them] away, and depart. because <2SA1 -9> He said unto me again, Stand, I pray thee, upon me, and slay me: for anguish is come upon me, {because} my life [is] yet whole in me. because <2SA1 -10> So I stood upon him, and slew him, {because} I was sure that he could not live after that he was fallen: and I took the crown that [was] upon his head, and the bracelet that [was] on his arm, and have brought them hither unto my lord. because <2SA1 -12> And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; {because} they were fallen by the sword. because <2SA2 -6> And now the LORD show kindness and truth unto you: and I also will requite you this kindness, {because} ye have done this thing. because <2SA3 -11> And he could not answer Abner a word again, {because} he feared him. because <2SA3 -30> So Joab and Abishai his brother slew Abner, {because} he had slain their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle. because <2SA6 -8> And David was displeased, {because} the LORD had made a breach upon Uzzah: and he called the name of the place Perezuzzah to this day. because <2SA6 -12> And it was told king David, saying, The LORD hath blessed the house of Obededom, and all that [pertaineth] unto him, {because} of the ark of God. So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obededom into the city of Da vid with gladness. because <2SA8 -10> Then Toi sent Joram his son unto king David, to salute him, and to bless him, {because} he had fought against Hadadezer, and smitten him: for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And [Joram] brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of go ld, and vessels of brass: because <2SA10 -5> When they told [it] unto David, he sent to meet them, {because} the men were greatly ashamed: and the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and [then] return. because <2SA12 -6> And he shall restore the lamb fourfold, {because} he did this thing, and because he had no pity. because <2SA12 -6> And he shall restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and {because} he had no pity. because <2SA12 -10> Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; {because} thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife. because <2SA12 -14> Howbeit, {because} by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also [that is] born unto thee shall surely die. because <2SA12 -25> And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he called his name Jedidiah, {because} of the LORD. because <2SA13 -22> And Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, {because} he had forced his sister Tamar. because <2SA14 -15> Now therefore that I am come to speak of this thing unto my lord the king, [it is] {because} the people have made me afraid: and thy handmaid said, I will now speak unto the king; it may be that the king will perform the request of his handmaid. because <2SA14 -26> And when he polled his head, (for it was at every year's end that he polled [it]: {because} [the hair] was heavy on him, therefore he polled it:) he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred shekels after the king's weight. because <2SA16 -8> The LORD hath returned upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned; and the LORD hath delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom thy son: and, behold, thou [art taken] in thy mischief, {because} th ou [art] a bloody man. because <2SA16 -10> And the king said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? so let him curse, {because} the LORD hath said unto him, Curse David. Who shall then say, Wherefore hast thou done so? because <2SA18 -20> And Joab said unto him, Thou shalt not bear tidings this day, but thou shalt bear tidings another day: but this day thou shalt bear no tidings, {because} the king's son is dead. because <2SA19 -21> But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered and said, Shall not Shimei be put to death for this, {because} he cursed the LORD'S anointed? because <2SA19 -26> And he answered, My lord, O king, my servant deceived me: for thy servant said, I will saddle me an ass, that I may ride thereon, and go to the king; {because} thy servant [is] lame. because <2SA19 -42> And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, {Because} the king [is] near of kin to us: wherefore then be ye angry for this matter? have we eaten at all of the king's [cost]? or hath he given us any gift? because <2SA21 -1> Then there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David inquired of the LORD. And the LORD answered, [It is] for Saul, and for [his] bloody house, {because} he slew the Gibeonites. because <2SA21 -7> But the king spared Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, {because} of the LORD'S oath that [was] between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul. because <2SA22 -8> Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven moved and shook, {because} he was wroth. because <2SA22 -20> He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, {because} he delighted in me. because <2SA23 -6> But [the sons] of Belial [shall be] all of them as thorns thrust away, {because} they cannot be taken with hands: because <1KI1 -50> And Adonijah feared {because} of Solomon, and arose, and went, and caught hold on the horns of the altar. because <1KI2 -7> But show kindness unto the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be of those that eat at thy table: for so they came to me when I fled {because} of Absalom thy brother. because <1KI2 -26> And unto Abiathar the priest said the king, Get thee to Anathoth, unto thine own fields; for thou [art] worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, {because} thou barest the ark of the Lord GOD before David my father , and because thou hast been afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted. because <1KI2 -26> And unto Abiathar the priest said the king, Get thee to Anathoth, unto thine own fields; for thou [art] worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou barest the ark of the Lord GOD before David my father, and {because} thou hast been afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted. because <1KI3 -2> Only the people sacrificed in high places, {because} there was no house built unto the name of the LORD, until those days. because <1KI3 -11> And God said unto him, {Because} thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies; but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern judgment; because <1KI3 -19> And this woman's child died in the night; {because} she overlaid it. because <1KI7 -47> And Solomon left all the vessels [unweighed], {because} they were exceeding many: neither was the weight of the brass found out. because <1KI8 -11> So that the priests could not stand to minister {because} of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of the LORD. because <1KI8 -33> When thy people Israel be smitten down before the enemy, {because} they have sinned against thee, and shall turn again to thee, and confess thy name, and pray, and make supplication unto thee in this house: because <1KI8 -35> When heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, {because} they have sinned against thee; if they pray toward this place, and confess thy name, and turn from their sin, when thou afflictest them: because <1KI8 -64> The same day did the king hallow the middle of the court that [was] before the house of the LORD for there he offered burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings: {because} the brazen altar that [was] before the LORD [was] too little to receive the burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings. because <1KI9 -9> And they shall answer, {Because} they forsook the LORD their God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and have taken hold upon other gods, and have worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath the LORD brought u pon them all this evil. because <1KI10 -9> Blessed be the LORD thy God, which delighted in thee, to set thee on the throne of Israel: {because} the LORD loved Israel for ever, therefore made he thee king, to do judgment and justice. because <1KI11 -9> And the LORD was angry with Solomon, {because} his heart was turned from the LORD God of Israel, which had appeared unto him twice, because <1KI11 -33> {Because} that they have forsaken me, and have worshipped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the children of Ammon, and have not walked in my ways, to do [that which is] right in mine eyes, and [to keep] my statutes and my judgments, as [did] David his father. because <1KI11 -34> Howbeit I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand: but I will make him prince all the days of his life for David my servant's sake, whom I chose, {because} he kept my commandments and my statutes: because <1KI14 -13> And all Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him: for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, {because} in him there is found [some] good thing toward the LORD God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam. because <1KI14 -15> For the LORD shall smite Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water, and he shall root up Israel out of this good land, which he gave to their fathers, and shall scatter them beyond the river, {because} they have made their groves, provo king the LORD to anger. because <1KI14 -16> And he shall give Israel up {because} of the sins of Jeroboam, who did sin, and who made Israel to sin. because <1KI15 -5> {Because} David did [that which was] right in the eyes of the LORD, and turned not aside from any [thing] that he commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite. because <1KI15 -13> And also Maachah his mother, even her he removed from [being] queen, {because} she had made an idol in a grove; and Asa destroyed her idol, and burnt [it] by the brook Kidron. because <1KI15 -30> {Because} of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and which he made Israel sin, by his provocation wherewith he provoked the LORD God of Israel to anger. because <1KI16 -7> And also by the hand of the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani came the word of the LORD against Baasha, and against his house, even for all the evil that he did in the sight of the LORD, in provoking him to anger with the work of his hands , in being like the house of Jeroboam; and {because} he killed him. because <1KI17 -7> And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up, {because} there had been no rain in the land. because <1KI19 -7> And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise [and] eat; {because} the journey [is] too great for thee. because <1KI19 -14> And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: {because} the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, [even] I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away. because <1KI20 -28> And there came a man of God, and spake unto the king of Israel, and said, Thus saith the LORD, {Because} the Syrians have said, The LORD [is] God of the hills, but he [is] not God of the valleys, therefore will I deliver all this great multitude into thine hand, and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD. because <1KI20 -36> Then said he unto him, {Because} thou hast not obeyed the voice of the LORD, behold, as soon as thou art departed from me, a lion shall slay thee. And as soon as he was departed from him, a lion found him, and slew him. because <1KI20 -42> And he said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, {Because} thou hast let go out of [thy] hand a man whom I appointed to utter destruction, therefore thy life shall go for his life, and thy people for his people. because <1KI21 -2> And Ahab spake unto Naboth, saying, Give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, {because} it [is] near unto my house: and I will give thee for it a better vineyard than it; [or], if it seem good to thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money. because <1KI21 -4> And Ahab came into his house heavy and displeased {because} of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him: for he had said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And he laid him down upon his bed, and turned aw ay his face, and would eat no bread. because <1KI21 -6> And he said unto her, {Because} I spake unto Naboth the Jezreelite, and said unto him, Give me thy vineyard for money; or else, if it please thee, I will give thee [another] vineyard for it: and he answered, I will not give thee my vine yard. because <1KI21 -20> And Ahab said to Elijah, hast thou found me, O mine enemy? And he answered, I have found [thee]; {because} thou hast sold thyself to work evil in the sight of the LORD. because <1KI21 -29> Seest thou how Ahab humbleth himself before me? {because} he humbleth himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days: [but] in his son's days will I bring the evil upon his house. because <2KI1 -3> But the angel of the LORD said to Elijah the Tishbite, Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say unto them, [Is it] not {because} [there is] not a God in Israel, [that] ye go to inquire of Baalzebub the god of E kron? because <2KI1 -6> And they said unto him, There came a man up to meet us, and said unto us, Go, turn again unto the king that sent you, and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, [Is it] not {because} [there is] not a God in Israel, [that] thou sendest to inq uire of Baalzebub the god of Ekron? therefore thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die. because <2KI1 -16> And he said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Forasmuch as thou hast sent messengers to inquire of Baalzebub the god of Ekron, [is it] not {because} [there is] no God in Israel to inquire of his word? therefore thou shalt not come down off that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die. because <2KI1 -17> So he died according to the word of the LORD which Elijah had spoken. And Jehoram reigned in his stead in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah; {because} he had no son. because <2KI5 -1> Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable, {because} by him the LORD had given deliverance unto Syria: he was also a mighty man in valour, [but he was] a leper. because <2KI8 -12> And Hazael said, Why weepeth my lord? And he answered, {Because} I know the evil that thou wilt do unto the children of Israel: their strong holds wilt thou set on fire, and their young men wilt thou slay with the sword, and wilt dash t heir children, and rip up their women with child. because <2KI8 -29> And king Joram went back to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. And Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, {because} he was sick. because <2KI9 -14> So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram had kept Ramothgilead, he and all Israel, {because} of Hazael king of Syria. because <2KI10 -30> And the LORD said unto Jehu, {Because} thou hast done well in executing [that which is] right in mine eyes, [and] hast done unto the house of Ahab according to all that [was] in mine heart, thy children of the fourth [generation] shall sit on the throne of Israel. because <2KI13 -4> And Jehoahaz besought the LORD, and the LORD hearkened unto him: for he saw the oppression of Israel, {because} the king of Syria oppressed them. because <2KI13 -23> And the LORD was gracious unto them, and had compassion on them, and had respect unto them, {because} of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from his presence as yet. because <2KI15 -16> Then Menahem smote Tiphsah, and all that [were] therein, and the coasts thereof from Tirzah: {because} they opened not [to him], therefore he smote [it; and] all the women therein that were with child he ripped up. because <2KI17 -26> Wherefore they spake to the king of Assyria, saying, The nations which thou hast removed, and placed in the cities of Samaria, know not the manner of the God of the land: therefore he hath sent lions among them, and, behold, they slay them, {because} they know not the manner of the God of the land. because <2KI18 -12> {Because} they obeyed not the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, [and] all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear [them], nor do [them]. because <2KI19 -28> {Because} thy rage against me and thy tumult is come up into mine ears, therefore I will put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest. because <2KI21 -11> {Because} Manasseh king of Judah hath done these abominations, [and] hath done wickedly above all that the Amorites did, which [were] before him, and hath made Judah also to sin with his idols: because <2KI21 -15> {Because} they have done [that which was] evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger, since the day their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even unto this day. because <2KI22 -7> Howbeit there was no reckoning made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand, {because} they dealt faithfully. because <2KI22 -13> Go ye, inquire of the LORD for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found: for great [is] the wrath of the LORD that is kindled against us, {because} our fathers have not hearkened unto t he words of this book, to do according unto all that which is written concerning us. because <2KI22 -17> {Because} they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched. because <2KI22 -19> {Because} thine heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before the LORD, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and hast rent t hy clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard [thee], saith the LORD. because <2KI23 -26> 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. because <1CH1 -19> And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of the one [was] Peleg; {because} in his days the earth was divided: and his brother's name [was] Joktan. because <1CH4 -9> And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren: and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, {Because} I bare him with sorrow. because <1CH4 -41> And these written by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and smote their tents, and the habitations that were found there, and destroyed them utterly unto this day, and dwelt in their rooms: {because} [there was] pasture th ere for their flocks. because <1CH5 -9> And eastward he inhabited unto the entering in of the wilderness from the river Euphrates: {because} their cattle were multiplied in the land of Gilead. because <1CH5 -20> And they were helped against them, and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand, and all that [were] with them: for they cried to God in the battle, and he was entreated of them; {because} they put their trust in him. because <1CH5 -22> For there fell down many slain, {because} the war [was] of God. And they dwelt in their steads until the captivity. because <1CH7 -21> And Zabad his son, and Shuthelah his son, and Ezer, and Elead, whom the men of Gath [that were] born in [that] land slew, {because} they came down to take away their cattle. because <1CH7 -23> 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. because <1CH9 -27> And they lodged round about the house of God, {because} the charge [was] upon them, and the opening thereof every morning [pertained] to them. because <1CH12 -1> Now these [are] they that came to David to Ziklag, while he yet kept himself close {because} of Saul the son of Kish: and they [were] among the mighty men, helpers of the war. because <1CH13 -10> And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him, {because} he put his hand to the ark: and there he died before God. because <1CH13 -11> And David was displeased, {because} the LORD had made a breach upon Uzza: wherefore that place is called Perezuzza to this day. because <1CH14 -2> And David perceived that the LORD had confirmed him king over Israel, for his kingdom was lifted up on high, {because} of his people Israel. because <1CH15 -13> For {because} ye [did it] not at the first, the LORD our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due order. because <1CH15 -22> And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, [was] for song: he instructed about the song, {because} he [was] skilful. because <1CH16 -33> Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the LORD, {because} he cometh to judge the earth. because <1CH16 -41> And with them Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest that were chosen, who were expressed by name, to give thanks to the LORD, {because} his mercy [endureth] for ever; because <1CH18 -10> He sent Hadoram his son to king David, to inquire of his welfare, and to congratulate him, {because} he had fought against Hadarezer, and smitten him; (for Hadarezer had war with Tou;) and [with him] all manner of vessels of gold and s ilver and brass. because <1CH19 -2> And David said, I will show kindness unto Hanun the son of Nahash, {because} his father showed kindness to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children o f Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him. because <1CH21 -8> And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, {because} I have done this thing: but now, I beseech thee, do away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly. because <1CH21 -30> But David could not go before it to inquire of God: for he was afraid {because} of the sword of the angel of the LORD. because <1CH22 -8> But the word of the LORD came to me, saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast made great wars: thou shalt not build an house unto my name, {because} thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in my sight. because <1CH23 -28> {Because} their office [was] to wait on the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of the LORD, in the courts, and in the chambers, and in the purifying of all holy things, and the work of the service of the house of God; because <1CH27 -23> But David took not the number of them from twenty years old and under: {because} the LORD had said he would increase Israel like to the stars of the heavens. because <1CH27 -24> Joab the son of Zeruiah began to number, but he finished not, {because} there fell wrath for it against Israel; neither was the number put in the account of the chronicles of king David. because <1CH28 -3> But God said unto me, Thou shalt not build an house for my name, {because} thou [hast been] a man of war, and hast shed blood. because <1CH29 -3> Moreover, {because} I have set my affection to the house of my God, I have of mine own proper good, of gold and silver, [which] I have given to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house, because <1CH29 -9> Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, {because} with perfect heart they offered willingly to the LORD: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy. because <2CH1 -11> And God said to Solomon, {Because} this was in thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou m ayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king: because <2CH2 -11> Then Huram the king of Tyre answered in writing, which he sent to Solomon, {Because} the LORD hath loved his people, he hath made thee king over them. because <2CH6 -24> And if thy people Israel be put to the worse before the enemy, {because} they have sinned against thee; and shall return and confess thy name, and pray and make supplication before thee in this house; because <2CH6 -26> When the heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, {because} they have sinned against thee; [yet] if they pray toward this place, and confess thy name, and turn from their sin, when thou dost afflict them; because <2CH7 -2> And the priests could not enter into the house of the LORD, {because} the glory of the LORD had filled the LORD'S house. because <2CH7 -6> And the priests waited on their offices: the Levites also with instruments of music 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 pri ests sounded trumpets before them, and all Israel stood. because <2CH7 -7> Moreover Solomon hallowed the middle of the court that [was] before the house of the LORD: for there he offered burnt offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, {because} the brazen altar which Solomon had made was not able to receiv e the burnt offerings, and the meat offerings, and the fat. because <2CH7 -22> And it shall be answered, {Because} they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath he brought all this evi l upon them. because <2CH8 -11> And Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the city of David unto the house that he had built for her: for he said, My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, {because} [the places are] holy, whereunto the ark of the LORD hath come. because <2CH9 -8> Blessed be the LORD thy God, which delighted in thee to set thee on his throne, [to be] king for the LORD thy God: {because} thy God loved Israel, to establish them for ever, therefore made he thee king over them, to do judgment and just ice. because <2CH12 -2> And it came to pass, [that] in the fifth year of king Rehoboam Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, {because} they had transgressed against the LORD, because <2CH12 -5> Then came Shemaiah the prophet to Rehoboam, and [to] the princes of Judah, that were gathered together to Jerusalem {because} of Shishak, and said unto them, Thus saith the LORD, Ye have forsaken me, and therefore have I also left you i n the hand of Shishak. because <2CH12 -14> And he did evil, {because} he prepared not his heart to seek the LORD. because <2CH13 -18> Thus the children of Israel were brought under at that time, and the children of Judah prevailed, {because} they relied upon the LORD God of their fathers. because <2CH14 -6> And he built fenced cities in Judah: for the land had rest, and he had no war in those years; {because} the LORD had given him rest. because <2CH14 -7> Therefore he said unto Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about [them] walls, and towers, gates, and bars, [while] the land [is] yet before us; {because} we have sought the LORD our God, we have sought [him], and he hath given u s rest on every side. So they built and prospered. because <2CH15 -16> And also [concerning] Maachah the mother of Asa the king, he removed her from [being] queen, {because} she had made an idol in a grove: and Asa cut down her idol, and stamped [it], and burnt [it] at the brook Kidron. because <2CH16 -7> And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said unto him, {Because} thou hast relied on the king of Syria, and not relied on the LORD thy God, therefore is the host of the king of Syria escaped out of thine hand. because <2CH16 -8> Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubims a huge host, with very many chariots and horsemen? yet, {because} thou didst rely on the LORD, he delivered them into thine hand. because <2CH16 -10> Then Asa was wroth with the seer, and put him in a prison house; for [he was] in a rage with him {because} of this [thing]. And Asa oppressed [some] of the people the same time. because <2CH17 -3> And the LORD was with Jehoshaphat, {because} he walked in the first ways of his father David, and sought not unto Baalim; because <2CH20 -37> Then Eliezer the son of Dodavah of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, {Because} thou hast joined thyself with Ahaziah, the LORD hath broken thy works. And the ships were broken, that they were not able to go to Tarshish. because <2CH21 -3> And their father gave them great gifts of silver, and of gold, and of precious things, with fenced cities in Judah: but the kingdom gave he to Jehoram; {because} he [was] the firstborn. because <2CH21 -7> Howbeit the LORD would not destroy the house of David, {because} of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a light to him and to his sons for ever. because <2CH21 -10> So the Edomites revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. The same time [also] did Libnah revolt from under his hand; {because} he had forsaken the LORD God of his fathers. because <2CH21 -12> And there came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus saith the LORD God of David thy father, {Because} thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah, because <2CH22 -6> And he returned to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds which were given him at Ramah, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab at Jezreel, {be cause} he was sick. because <2CH22 -6> And he returned to be healed in Jezreel {because} of the wounds which were given him at Ramah, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab at Jezreel, b ecause he was sick. because <2CH22 -9> And he sought Ahaziah: and they caught him, (for he was hid in Samaria,) and brought him to Jehu: and when they had slain him, they buried him: {Because}, said they, he [is] the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with all his heart .

This gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened, and no man shall enter in by it; {because} the LORD, the God of Israel, hath entered in by it, therefore it shall be shut. because In that ye have brought [into my sanctuary] strangers, uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to pollute it, [even] my house, when ye offer my bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken my cov enant {because} of all your abominations. because {Because} they ministered unto them before their idols, and caused the house of Israel to fall into iniquity; therefore have I lifted up mine hand against them, saith the Lord GOD, and they shall bear their iniquity. because And it shall come to pass, [that] every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, {because} these waters shall come thither: for they shall be he aled; and every thing shall live whither the river cometh. because And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, {beca use} their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine. because The king answered and said, I know of certainty that ye would gain the time, {because} ye see the thing is gone from me. because Therefore {because} the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. because 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. because O Belteshazzar, master of the magicians, {because} I know that the spirit of the holy gods [is] in thee, and no secret troubleth thee, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and the interpretation thereof. because Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, {because} an excellent spirit [was] in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm. because Then was the king exceeding glad for him, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, {because} he believed in his God. because I beheld then {because} of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld [even] till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame. because O Lord, righteousness [belongeth] unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, [that are] near, and [that are] far off, through all the countrie s whither thou hast driven them, {because} of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee. because O Lord, to us [belongeth] confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, {because} we have sinned against thee. because Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that [is] written in the law of Moses the servant of God, {because} we have sinned aga inst him. because O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain: {because} for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people [are become] a reproach to all [that are] about us. because And [some] of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make [them] white, [even] to the time of the end: {because} [it is] yet for a time appointed. because Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, {because} [there is] no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land. because My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: {because} thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. because For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: {because} they have left off to take heed to the LORD. because They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burn incense upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms, {because} the shadow thereof [is] good: therefore your daughters shall commit whoredom, and your spouses shall commit adult ery. because The wind hath bound her up in her wings, and they shall be ashamed {because} of their sacrifices. because Hear ye this, O priests; and hearken, ye house of Israel; and give ye ear, O house of the king; for judgment [is] toward you, {because} ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor. because Ephraim [is] oppressed [and] broken in judgment, {because} he willingly walked after the commandment. because Woe unto them! for they have fled from me: destruction unto them! {because} they have transgressed against me: though I have redeemed them, yet they have spoken lies against me. because Set] the trumpet to thy mouth. [He shall come] as an eagle against the house of the LORD, {because} they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my law. because {Because} Ephraim hath made many altars to sin, altars shall be unto him to sin. because For, lo, they are gone {because} of destruction: Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them: the pleasant [places] for their silver, nettles shall possess them: thorns [shall be] in their tabernacles. because My God will cast them away, {because} they did not hearken unto him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations. because For now they shall say, We have no king, {because} we feared not the LORD; what then should a king do to us? because The inhabitants of Samaria shall fear {because} of the calves of Bethaven: for the people thereof shall mourn over it, and the priests thereof [that] rejoiced on it, for the glory thereof, because it is departed from it. because The inhabitants of Samaria shall fear because of the calves of Bethaven: for the people thereof shall mourn over it, and the priests thereof [that] rejoiced on it, for the glory thereof, {because} it is departed from it. because Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity; ye have eaten the fruit of lies: {because} thou didst trust in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men. because So shall Bethel do unto you {because} of your great wickedness: in a morning shall the king of Israel utterly be cut off. because He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king, {because} they refused to return. because And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour [them], {because} of their own counsels. because Awake, ye drunkards, and weep; and howl, all ye drinkers of wine, {because} of the new wine, for it is cut off from your mouth. because Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; {because} the harvest of the field is perished. because The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, [even] all the trees of the field, are withered: {because} joy is withered away from the sons of men. because How do the beasts groan! the herds of cattle are perplexed, {because} they have no pasture; yea, the flocks of sheep are made desolate. because But I will remove far off from you the northern [army], and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part toward the utmost sea, and his stink shall come up, and his ill savour sh all come up, {because} he hath done great things. because {Because} ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things: because Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence [against] the children of Judah, {because} they have shed innocent blood in their land. because Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I will not turn away [the punishment] thereof; {because} they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron: because Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away [the punishment] thereof; {because} they carried away captive the whole captivity, to deliver [them] up to Edom: because Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Tyrus, and for four, I will not turn away [the punishment] thereof; {because} they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant: because Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, I will not turn away [the punishment] thereof; {because} he did pursue his brother with the sword, and did cast off all pity, and his anger did tear perpetually, and h e kept his wrath for ever: because Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not turn away [the punishment] thereof; {because} they have ripped up the women with child of Gilead, that they might enlarge their border: because Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not turn away [the punishment] thereof; {because} he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime: because Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away [the punishment] thereof; {because} they have despised the law of the LORD, and have not kept his commandments, and their lies caused them to err, after the which their fathers have walked: because Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away [the punishment] thereof; {because} they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of shoes; because Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel: [and] {because} I will do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel. because Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said unto him, Why hast thou done this? For the men knew that he fled from the presence of the LORD, {because} he had told them. because Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practice it, {because} it is in the power of their hand. because Arise ye, and depart; for this [is] not [your] rest: {because} it is polluted, it shall destroy [you], even with a sore destruction. because Therefore also will I make [thee] sick in smiting thee, in making [thee] desolate {because} of thy sins. because I will bear the indignation of the LORD, {because} I have sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: he will bring me forth to the light, [and] I shall behold his righteousness. because Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate {because} of them that dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings. because They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall move out of their holes like worms of the earth: they shall be afraid of the LORD our God, and shall fear {because} of thee. because Who [is] a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, {because} he delighteth [in] mercy. because {Because} of the multitude of the whoredoms of the wellfavoured harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her whoredoms, and families through her witchcrafts. because Thou also shalt be drunken: thou shalt be hid, thou also shalt seek strength {because} of the enemy. because Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn incense unto their drag; {because} by them their portion [is] fat, and their meat plenteous. because For the vision [is] yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; {because} it will surely come, it will not tarry. because Yea also, {because} he transgresseth by wine, [he is] a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and [is] as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people : because {Because} thou hast spoiled many nations, all the remnant of the people shall spoil thee; because of men's blood, and [for] the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein. because Because thou hast spoiled many nations, all the remnant of the people shall spoil thee; {because} of men's blood, and [for] the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein. because For the violence of Lebanon shall cover thee, and the spoil of beasts, [which] made them afraid, {because} of men's blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein. because And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, {because} they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung. because This shall they have for their pride, {because} they have reproached and magnified [themselves] against the people of the LORD of hosts. because In that day shalt thou not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of thee them that rejoice in thy pride, and thou shalt no more be haughty {because} of my ho ly mountain. because Ye looked for much, and, lo, [it came] to little; and when ye brought [it] home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the LORD of hosts. {Because} of mine house that [is] waste, and ye run every man unto his own house. because For before these days there was no hire for man, nor any hire for beast; neither [was there any] peace to him that went out or came in {because} of the affliction: for I set all men every one against his neighbour. because And I will encamp about mine house {because} of the army, because of him that passeth by, and because of him that returneth: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with mine eyes. because And I will encamp about mine house because of the army, because of him that passeth by, and {because} of him that returneth: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with mine eyes. because And I will encamp about mine house because of the army, {because} of him that passeth by, and because of him that returneth: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with mine eyes. because For the idols have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie, and have told false dreams; they comfort in vain: therefore they went their way as a flock, they were troubled, {because} [there was] no shepherd. because And they shall be as mighty [men], which tread down [their enemies] in the mire of the streets in the battle: and they shall fight, {because} the LORD [is] with them, and the riders on horses shall be confounded. because Howl, fir tree; for the cedar is fallen; {because} the mighty are spoiled: howl, O ye oaks of Bashan; for the forest of the vintage is come down. because If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay [it] to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the LORD of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, {because} ye do not lay [it] to heart. because Yet ye say, Wherefore? {Because} the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet [is] she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. because In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping [for] her children, and would not be comforted, {because} they are not. because Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, {because} thou canst not make one hair white or black. because {Because} strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. because But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, {because} they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. because Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works were done, {because} they repented not: because At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, {because} thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. because The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: {because} they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas [is] here. because Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, {because} they had no deepness of earth: because And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and {because} they had no root, they withered away. because He answered and said unto them, {Because} it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. because Therefore speak I to them in parables: {because} they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. because Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth {because} of the word, by and by he is offended. because And he did not many mighty works there {because} of their unbelief. because And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, {because} they counted him as a prophet. because Then Jesus called his disciples [unto him], and said, I have compassion on the multitude, {because} they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way. because And they reasoned among themselves, saying, [It is] {because} we have taken no bread. because Which] when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, {because} ye have brought no bread? because And Jesus said unto them, {Because} of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impo ssible unto you. because Woe unto the world {because} of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh! because Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, {because} thou desiredst me: because He saith unto them, Moses {because} of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. because They say unto him, {Because} no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, [that] shall ye receive. because Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, {because} I am good? because And the multitude rebuked them, {because} they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, [thou] son of David. because But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, {because} they took him for a prophet. because Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! {because} ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, because And {because} iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. because Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended {because} of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad. because Peter answered and said unto him, Though all [men] shall be offended {because} of thee, [yet] will I never be offended. because And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, {because} it is the price of blood. because When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream {because} of him. because And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, {because} they knew him. because And he spake to his disciples, that a small ship should wait on him {because} of the multitude, lest they should throng him. because {Because} they said, He hath an unclean spirit. because And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, {because} it had no depth of earth: because But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and {because} it had no root, it withered away. because But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, {because} the harvest is come. because {Because} that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man] tame him. because And he marvelled {because} of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching. because And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, {because} they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things. because {Because} it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats? because I have compassion on the multitude, {because} they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat: because And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is] {because} we have no bread. because And when Jesus knew it], he saith unto them, Why reason ye, {because} ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet hardened? because And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, {because} he followeth not us. because For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, {because} ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward. because And the scribes and chief priests heard it], and sought how they might destroy him: for they feared him, {because} all the people was astonished at his doctrine. because And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, {because} ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God? because And Jesus saith unto them, All ye shall be offended {because} of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered. because And now when the even was come, {because} it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, because Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, {because} they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen. because And they had no child, {because} that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now] well stricken in years. because And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, {because} thou believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season. because And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; {because} he was of the house and lineage of David:) because And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; {because} there was no room for them in the inn. because The Spirit of the Lord is] upon me, {because} he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at libert y them that are bruised, because And when they could not find by what way] they might bring him in {because} of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his] couch into the midst before Jesus. because And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, {because} it lacked moisture. because And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: {because} many devils were entered into him. because Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him: and he was perplexed, {because} that it was said of some, that John was risen from the dead; because And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbad him, {because} he followeth not with us. because And they did not receive him, {because} his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem. because Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, {because} your names are written in heaven. because I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him, {because} he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth. because I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend, yet {because} of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth. because If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? {because} ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub. because And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, {because} I have no room where to bestow my fruits? because And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, {because} they suffered such things? because And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, {because} that Jesus had healed on the sabbath day, and said unto the people, There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the sabbath day. because And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, {because} he hath received him safe and sound. because And the lord commended the unjust steward, {because} he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light. because Doth he thank that servant {because} he did the things that were commanded him? I trow not. because Yet {because} this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me. because And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, {because} he was little of stature. because And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, {because} he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear. because And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and {because} they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear. because And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: {because} thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities. because For I feared thee, {because} thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow. because And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him]? thus shall ye say unto him, {Because} the Lord hath need of him. because And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; {because} thou knewest not the time of thy visitation. because And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long season], {because} he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him. because Jesus answered and said unto him, {Because} I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these. because But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, {because} he knew all men], because He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, {because} he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. because And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, {because} their deeds were evil. because And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, {because} there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized. because He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly {because} of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled. because And many more believed {because} of his own word; because And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not {because} of thy saying: for we have heard him] ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world. because And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, {because} he had done these things on the sabbath day. because Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, {because} he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. because And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, {because} he is the Son of man. because I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; {because} I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me. because And a great multitude followed him, {because} they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased. because Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not {because} ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. because Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but {because} ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. because The Jews then murmured at him, {because} he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven. because After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, {because} the Jews sought to kill him. because The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, {because} I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil. because Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; not {because} it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man. because If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, {because} I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day? because Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, {because} his hour was not yet come. because But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given]; {because} that Jesus was not yet glorified.) because So there was a division among the people {because} of him. because Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? {because} he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come. because I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, {because} my word hath no place in you. because Why do ye not understand my speech? even] {because} ye cannot hear my word. because Ye are of your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, {because} there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. because And {because} I tell you] the truth, ye believe me not. because He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them] not, {because} ye are not of God. because Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, {because} he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them. because These words] spake his parents, {because} they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue. because The hireling fleeth, {because} he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. because Therefore doth my Father love me, {because} I lay down my life, that I might take it again. because But ye believe not, {because} ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. because The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and {because} that thou, being a man, makest thyself God. because Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; {because} I said, I am the Son of God? because Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, {because} he seeth the light of this world. because But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, {because} there is no light in him. because And I knew that thou hearest me always: but {because} of the people which stand by I said it], that they may believe that thou hast sent me. because This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but {because} he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein. because {Because} that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus. because Jesus answered and said, This voice came not {because} of me, but for your sakes. because Therefore they could not believe, {because} that Esaias said again, because Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but {because} of the Pharisees they did not confess him], lest they should be put out of the synagogue: because For some of them] thought, {because} Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things] that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor. because Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works] than these shall he do; {because} I go unto my Father. because Even] the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, {because} it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. because Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: {because} I live, ye shall live also. because Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again] unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, {because} I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I. because If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but {because} ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. because But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, {because} they know not him that sent me. because And ye also shall bear witness, {because} ye have been with me from the beginning. because And these things will they do unto you, {because} they have not known the Father, nor me. because But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, {because} I was with you. because But {because} I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart. because Of sin, {because} they believe not on me; because Of righteousness, {because} I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; because Of judgment, {because} the prince of this world is judged. because A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, {because} I go to the Father. because Then said some] of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith unto us, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me: and, {Because} I go to the Father? because A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, {because} her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. because For the Father himself loveth you, {because} ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God. because Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, {because} the Father is with me. because I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, {because} they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. because The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, {because} he made himself the Son of God. because The Jews therefore, {because} it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that] they might be taken away. because There laid they Jesus therefore {because} of the Jews' preparation day]; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand. because And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She saith unto them, {Because} they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him. because Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, {because} thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are] they that have not seen, and yet] have believed. because He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son] of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved {because} he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Je sus saith unto him, Feed my sheep. because Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, {because} that every man heard them speak in his own language. because Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: {because} it was not possible that he should be holden of it. because {Because} thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. because So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, {because} of the people: for all men] glorified God for that which was done. because And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, {because} their widows were neglected in the daily ministration. because And to him they had regard, {because} that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries. because But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, {because} thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money. because And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, {because} that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. because And {because} he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. Then were the days of unleavened bread.) because And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king's chamberlain their friend, desired peace; {because} their country was nourished by the king's country ]. because And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, {because} he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost. because For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, {because} they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them] in condemning him]. because And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, {because} he was the chief speaker. because Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him {because} of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his father was a Greek. because Then certain philosophers of the Epicureans, and of the Stoicks, encountered him. And some said, What will this babbler say? other some, He seemeth to be a setter forth of strange gods: {because} he preached unto them Jesus, and the re surrection. because {Because} he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that] man whom he hath ordained; whereof] he hath given assurance unto all men], in that he hath raised him from the dead. because And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; {because} that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them. because And {because} he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers. because For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, {because} he would not spend the time in Asia: for he hasted, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem the day of Pentecost. because Then straightway they departed from him which should have examined him: and the chief captain also was afraid, after he knew that he was a Roman, and {because} he had bound him. because On the morrow, {because} he would have known the certainty wherefore he was accused of the Jews, he loosed him from his] bands, and commanded the chief priests and all their council to appear, and brought Paul down, and set him before them. because {Because} that thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem for to worship. because And {because} I doubted of such manner of questions, I asked him] whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these matters. because I think myself happy, king Agrippa, {because} I shall answer for myself this day before thee touching all the things whereof I am accused of the Jews: because Especially {because} I know] thee to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently. because And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, {because} the winds were contrary. because Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, {because} the fast was now already past, Paul admonished them], because And {because} the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part advised to depart thence also, if by any means they might attain to Phenice, and there] to winter; which is] an haven of Crete, and lieth toward the south west and north west. because And the barbarous people showed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the present rain, and {because} of the cold. because And the barbarous people showed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and received us every one, {because} of the present rain, and because of the cold. because Who, when they had examined me, would have let me] go, {because} there was no cause of death in me. because For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see you], and to speak with you]: {because} that for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain. because {Because} that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath showed it] unto them. because {Because} that, when they knew God, they glorified him] not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. because Much every way: chiefly, {because} that unto them were committed the oracles of God. because {Because} the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is] no transgression. because And hope maketh not ashamed; {because} the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. because What then? shall we sin, {because} we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. because I speak after the manner of men {because} of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. because {Because} the carnal mind is] enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. because And if Christ be] in you, the body is] dead because of sin; but the Spirit is] life {because} of righteousness. because And if Christ be] in you, the body is] dead {because} of sin; but the Spirit is] life because of righteousness. because {Because} the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. because And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is] the mind of the Spirit, {because} he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of] God. because Neither, {because} they are the seed of Abraham, are they] all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. because For he will finish the work, and cut it] short in righteousness: {because} a short work will the Lord make upon the earth. because Wherefore? {Because} they sought it] not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone; because Well; {because} of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: because And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, {because} he eateth] not of faith: for whatsoever is] not of faith is sin. because Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly unto you in some sort, as putting you in mind, {because} of the grace that is given to me of God, because <1CO1 -25> {Because} the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. because <1CO2 -14> But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them], {because} they are spiritually discerned. because <1CO3 -13> Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, {because} it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. because <1CO6 -7> Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, {because} ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to] be defrauded? because <1CO11 -10> For this cause ought the woman to have power on her] head {because} of the angels. because <1CO12 -15> If the foot shall say, {Because} I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? because <1CO12 -16> And if the ear shall say, {Because} I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? because <1CO15 -9> For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, {because} I persecuted the church of God. because <1CO15 -15> Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; {because} we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. because <2CO2 -13> I had no rest in my spirit, {because} I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia. because <2CO5 -14> For the love of Christ constraineth us; {because} we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: because <2CO7 -13> Therefore we were comforted in your comfort: yea, and exceedingly the more joyed we for the joy of Titus, {because} his spirit was refreshed by you all. because <2CO11 -7> Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, {because} I have preached to you the gospel of God freely? because <2CO11 -11> Wherefore? {because} I love you not? God knoweth. because And that {because} of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: because But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, {because} he was to be blamed. because Wherefore then serveth] the law? It was added {because} of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was] ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. because And {because} ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. because Am I therefore become your enemy, {because} I tell you the truth? because Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, {because} of the blindness of their heart: because Let no man deceive you with vain words: for {because} of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. because Redeeming the time, {because} the days are evil. because Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, {because} I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace. because For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, {because} that ye had heard that he had been sick. because {Because} for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me. because Not {because} I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account. because <1TH2 -8> So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, {because} ye were dear unto us. because <1TH2 -9> For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, {because} we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God. because <1TH2 -13> For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, {because}, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it] not as] the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you t hat believe. because <1TH4 -6> That no man] go beyond and defraud his brother in any] matter: {because} that the Lord is] the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified. because <2TH1 -3> We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, {because} that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth; because <2TH1 -10> When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe {because} our testimony among you was believed) in that day. because <2TH2 -10> And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; {because} they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. because <2TH2 -13> But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, {because} God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: because <2TH3 -9> Not {because} we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us. because <1TI1 -13> Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, {because} I did it] ignorantly in unbelief. because <1TI4 -10> For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, {because} we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe. because <1TI5 -12> Having damnation, {because} they have cast off their first faith. because <1TI6 -2> And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them], because they are brethren; but rather do them] service, {because} they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort. because <1TI6 -2> And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them], {because} they are brethren; but rather do them] service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort. because For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, {because} the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother. because So we see that they could not enter in {because} of unbelief. because Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in {because} of unbelief: because For when God made promise to Abraham, {because} he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, because And they truly were many priests, {because} they were not suffered to continue by reason of death: because But this man], {because} he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. because Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; {because} they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. because For then would they not have ceased to be offered? {because} that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins. because By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, {because} God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. because Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, {because} she judged him faithful who had promised. because By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, {because} they saw he was] a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment. because But the rich, in that he is made low: {because} as the flower of the grass he shall pass away. because Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, {because} ye ask not. because Ye ask, and receive not, {because} ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it] upon your lusts. because <1PE1 -16> {Because} it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. because <1PE2 -21> For even hereunto were ye called: {because} Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: because <1PE5 -8> Be sober, be vigilant; {because} your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: because <1JO2 -8> Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: {because} the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth. because <1JO2 -11> But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, {because} that darkness hath blinded his eyes. because <1JO2 -12> I write unto you, little children, {because} your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake. because <1JO2 -13> I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is] from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, {because} ye have known the Father. because <1JO2 -13> I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is] from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, {because} ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father. because <1JO2 -13> I write unto you, fathers, {because} ye have known him that is] from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father. because <1JO2 -14> I have written unto you, fathers, {because} ye have known him that is] from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one. because <1JO2 -14> I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is] from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, {because} ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one. because <1JO2 -21> I have not written unto you {because} ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. because <1JO2 -21> I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but {because} ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. because <1JO3 -1> Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, {because} it knew him not. because <1JO3 -9> Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, {because} he is born of God. because <1JO3 -12> Not as Cain, who] was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? {Because} his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous. because <1JO3 -14> We know that we have passed from death unto life, {because} we love the brethren. He that loveth not his] brother abideth in death. because <1JO3 -16> Hereby perceive we the love of God], {because} he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our] lives for the brethren. because <1JO3 -22> And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, {because} we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. because <1JO4 -1> Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: {because} many false prophets are gone out into the world. because <1JO4 -4> Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: {because} greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. because <1JO4 -9> In this was manifested the love of God toward us, {because} that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. because <1JO4 -13> Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, {because} he hath given us of his Spirit. because <1JO4 -17> Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: {because} as he is, so are we in this world. because <1JO4 -18> There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: {because} fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. because <1JO4 -19> We love him, {because} he first loved us. because <1JO5 -6> This is he that came by water and blood, even] Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, {because} the Spirit is truth. because <1JO5 -10> He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; {because} he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. because <3JO1 -7> {Because} that for his name's sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles. because These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words], having men's persons in admiration {because} of advantage. because Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also] which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail {because} of him. Even so, Amen. because Nevertheless I have somewhat] against thee, {because} thou hast left thy first love. because But I have a few things against thee, {because} thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornicati on. because Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, {because} thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. because {Because} thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. because So then {because} thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. because {Because} thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: because And I wept much, {because} no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. because And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, {because} they were made bitter. because And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; {because} these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. because Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; {because} thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned. because Therefore rejoice, ye] heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, {because} he knoweth that he hath but a short time. because And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, {because} she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. because And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, {because} thou hast judged thus. because And blasphemed the God of heaven {because} of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds. because And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone] about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God {because} of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great. ~~~~~~
