to <2CH4 -13> And four hundred pomegranates on the two wreaths; two rows of pomegranates on each wreath, {to} cover the two pommels of the chapiters which [were] upon the pillars. to <2CH4 -16> The pots also, and the shovels, and the fleshhooks, and all their instruments, did Huram his father make {to} king Solomon for the house of the LORD of bright brass. to <2CH5 -2> Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, unto Jerusalem, {to} bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which [is] Zion. to <2CH5 -7> And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD unto his place, {to} the oracle of the house, into the most holy [place, even] under the wings of the cherubims: to <2CH5 -11> And it came {to} pass, when the priests were come out of the holy [place]: (for all the priests [that were] present were sanctified, [and] did not [then] wait by course: to <2CH5 -13> It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers [were] as one, to make one sound {to} be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up [their] voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised t he LORD, [saying], For [he is] good; for his mercy [endureth] for ever: that [then] the house was filled with a cloud, [even] the house of the LORD; to <2CH5 -13> It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers [were] as one, {to} make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up [their] voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised t he LORD, [saying], For [he is] good; for his mercy [endureth] for ever: that [then] the house was filled with a cloud, [even] the house of the LORD; to <2CH5 -13> It came even {to} pass, as the trumpeters and singers [were] as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up [their] voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised t he LORD, [saying], For [he is] good; for his mercy [endureth] for ever: that [then] the house was filled with a cloud, [even] the house of the LORD; to <2CH5 -14> So that the priests could not stand {to} minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of God. to <2CH6 -4> And he said, Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel, who hath with his hands fulfilled [that] which he spake with his mouth {to} my father David, saying, to <2CH6 -5> Since the day that I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel {to} build an house in, that my name might be there; neither chose I any man to be a ruler over my people Israel: to <2CH6 -5> Since the day that I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel to build an house in, that my name might be there; neither chose I any man {to} be a ruler over my people Israel: to <2CH6 -6> But I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and have chosen David {to} be over my people Israel. to <2CH6 -7> Now it was in the heart of David my father {to} build an house for the name of the LORD God of Israel. to <2CH6 -8> But the LORD said to David my father, Forasmuch as it was in thine heart {to} build an house for my name, thou didst well in that it was in thine heart: to <2CH6 -8> But the LORD said {to} David my father, Forasmuch as it was in thine heart to build an house for my name, thou didst well in that it was in thine heart: to <2CH6 -16> Now therefore, O LORD God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that which thou hast promised him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit upon the throne of Israel; yet so that thy children take heed to their w ay {to} walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me. to <2CH6 -16> Now therefore, O LORD God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that which thou hast promised him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight {to} sit upon the throne of Israel; yet so that thy children take heed to their way to walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me. to <2CH6 -16> Now therefore, O LORD God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that which thou hast promised him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit upon the throne of Israel; yet so that thy children take heed {to} their way to walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me. to <2CH6 -19> Have respect therefore to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, O LORD my God, {to} hearken unto the cry and the prayer which thy servant prayeth before thee: to <2CH6 -19> Have respect therefore {to} the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken unto the cry and the prayer which thy servant prayeth before thee: to <2CH6 -19> Have respect therefore to the prayer of thy servant, and {to} his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken unto the cry and the prayer which thy servant prayeth before thee: to <2CH6 -20> That thine eyes may be open upon this house day and night, upon the place whereof thou hast said that thou wouldest put thy name there; {to} hearken unto the prayer which thy servant prayeth toward this place. to <2CH6 -22> If a man sin against his neighbour, and an oath be laid upon him {to} make him swear, and the oath come before thine altar in this house; to <2CH6 -23> Then hear thou from heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, by requiting the wicked, by recompensing his way upon his own head; and by justifying the righteous, by giving him according {to} his righteousness. to <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; to <2CH6 -25> Then hear thou from the heavens, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest {to} them and to their fathers. to <2CH6 -25> Then hear thou from the heavens, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest to them and {to} their fathers. to <2CH6 -31> That they may fear thee, {to} walk in thy ways, so long as they live in the land which thou gavest unto our fathers. to <2CH6 -33> Then hear thou from the heavens, [even] from thy dwelling place, and do according {to} all that the stranger calleth to thee for; that all people of the earth may know thy name, and fear thee, as [doth] thy people Israel, and may know that t his house which I have built is called by thy name. to <2CH6 -33> Then hear thou from the heavens, [even] from thy dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth {to} thee for; that all people of the earth may know thy name, and fear thee, as [doth] thy people Israel, and may know that t his house which I have built is called by thy name. to <2CH6 -34> If thy people go out {to} war against their enemies by the way that thou shalt send them, and they pray unto thee toward this city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy name; to <2CH6 -38> If they return {to} thee with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity, whither they have carried them captives, and pray toward their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, and [toward] the city which thou hast chosen, and toward the house which I have built for thy name: to <2CH7 -3> And when all the children of Israel saw how the fire came down, and the glory of the LORD upon the house, they bowed themselves with their faces {to} the ground upon the pavement, and worshipped, and praised the LORD, [saying], For [he is] go od; for his mercy [endureth] for ever. to <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 priests sounded trumpets before them, and all Israel stood. to <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} receive the burnt offerings, and the meat offerings, and the fat. to <2CH7 -10> And on the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent the people away into their tents, glad and merry in heart for the goodness that the LORD had showed unto David, and to Solomon, and {to} Israel his people. to <2CH7 -10> And on the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent the people away into their tents, glad and merry in heart for the goodness that the LORD had showed unto David, and {to} Solomon, and to Israel his people. to <2CH7 -11> Thus Solomon finished the house of the LORD, and the king's house: and all that came into Solomon's heart {to} make in the house of the LORD, and in his own house, he prosperously effected. to <2CH7 -12> And the LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place {to} myself for an house of sacrifice. to <2CH7 -12> And the LORD appeared {to} Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice. to <2CH7 -13> If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts {to} devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; to <2CH7 -17> And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, and do according {to} all that I have commanded thee, and shalt observe my statutes and my judgments; to <2CH7 -18> Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdom, according as I have covenanted with David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man [{to} be] ruler in Israel. to <2CH7 -20> Then will I pluck them up by the roots out of my land which I have given them; and this house, which I have sanctified for my name, will I cast out of my sight, and will make it [{to} be] a proverb and a byword among all nations. to <2CH7 -21> And this house, which is high, shall be an astonishment {to} every one that passeth by it; so that he shall say, Why hath the LORD done thus unto this land, and unto this house? to <2CH8 -1> And it came {to} pass at the end of twenty years, wherein Solomon had built the house of the LORD, and his own house, to <2CH8 -2> That the cities which Huram had restored {to} Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there. to <2CH8 -2> That the cities which Huram had restored to Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel {to} dwell there. to <2CH8 -3> And Solomon went {to} Hamathzobah, and prevailed against it. to <2CH8 -6> And Baalath, and all the store cities that Solomon had, and all the chariot cities, and the cities of the horsemen, and all that Solomon desired {to} build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and throughout all the land of his dominion. to <2CH8 -8> But] of their children, who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel consumed not, them did Solomon make {to} pay tribute until this day. to <2CH8 -13> Even after a certain rate every day, offering according {to} the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the solemn feasts, three times in the year, [even] in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of wee ks, and in the feast of tabernacles. to <2CH8 -14> And he appointed, according {to} the order of David his father, the courses of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their charges, to praise and minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required: the porters also by their courses at every gate: for so had David the man of God commanded. to <2CH8 -14> And he appointed, according to the order of David his father, the courses of the priests {to} their service, and the Levites to their charges, to praise and minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required: the porters also by their courses at every gate: for so had David the man of God commanded. to <2CH8 -14> And he appointed, according to the order of David his father, the courses of the priests to their service, and the Levites {to} their charges, to praise and minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required: the porters also by their courses at every gate: for so had David the man of God commanded. to <2CH8 -14> And he appointed, according to the order of David his father, the courses of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their charges, {to} praise and minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required: the porters also by their courses at every gate: for so had David the man of God commanded. to <2CH8 -17> Then went Solomon {to} Eziongeber, and to Eloth, at the sea side in the land of Edom. to <2CH8 -17> Then went Solomon to Eziongeber, and {to} Eloth, at the sea side in the land of Edom. to <2CH8 -18> And Huram sent him by the hands of his servants ships, and servants that had knowledge of the sea; and they went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and took thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought [them] {to} king Solo mon. to <2CH8 -18> And Huram sent him by the hands of his servants ships, and servants that had knowledge of the sea; and they went with the servants of Solomon {to} Ophir, and took thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought [them] to king Solo mon. to <2CH9 -1> And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came {to} prove Solomon with hard questions at Jerusalem, with a very great company, and camels that bare spices, and gold in abundance, and precious stones: and when she was come to Solomon, she communed with him of all that was in her heart. to <2CH9 -1> And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to prove Solomon with hard questions at Jerusalem, with a very great company, and camels that bare spices, and gold in abundance, and precious stones: and when she was come {t o} Solomon, she communed with him of all that was in her heart. to <2CH9 -5> And she said {to} the king, [It was] a true report which I heard in mine own land of thine acts, and of thy wisdom: to <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 justice. to <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 justice. to <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 justice. to <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 justice. to <2CH9 -11> And the king made [of] the algum trees terraces {to} the house of the LORD, and to the king's palace, and harps and psalteries for singers: and there were none such seen before in the land of Judah. to <2CH9 -11> And the king made [of] the algum trees terraces to the house of the LORD, and {to} the king's palace, and harps and psalteries for singers: and there were none such seen before in the land of Judah. to <2CH9 -12> And king Solomon gave {to} the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, beside [that] which she had brought unto the king. So she turned, and went away to her own land, she and her servants. to <2CH9 -12> And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, beside [that] which she had brought unto the king. So she turned, and went away {to} her own land, she and her servants. to <2CH9 -13> Now the weight of gold that came {to} Solomon in one year was six hundred and threescore and six talents of gold; to <2CH9 -14> Beside [that which] chapmen and merchants brought. And all the kings of Arabia and governors of the country brought gold and silver {to} Solomon. to <2CH9 -15> And king Solomon made two hundred targets [of] beaten gold: six hundred [shekels] of beaten gold went {to} one target. to <2CH9 -16> And three hundred shields [made he of] beaten gold: three hundred [shekels] of gold went {to} one shield. And the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon. to <2CH9 -18> And [there were] six steps {to} the throne, with a footstool of gold, [which were] fastened to the throne, and stays on each side of the sitting place, and two lions standing by the stays: to <2CH9 -18> And [there were] six steps to the throne, with a footstool of gold, [which were] fastened {to} the throne, and stays on each side of the sitting place, and two lions standing by the stays: to <2CH9 -21> For the king's ships went {to} Tarshish with the servants of Huram: every three years once came the ships of Tarshish bringing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks. to <2CH9 -23> And all the kings of the earth sought the presence of Solomon, {to} hear his wisdom, that God had put in his heart. to <2CH9 -26> And he reigned over all the kings from the river even unto the land of the Philistines, and {to} the border of Egypt. to <2CH10 -1> And Rehoboam went to Shechem: for to Shechem were all Israel come {to} make him king. to <2CH10 -1> And Rehoboam went {to} Shechem: for to Shechem were all Israel come to make him king. to <2CH10 -1> And Rehoboam went to Shechem: for {to} Shechem were all Israel come to make him king. to <2CH10 -2> And it came {to} pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who [was] in Egypt, whither he had fled from the presence of Solomon the king, heard [it], that Jeroboam returned out of Egypt. to <2CH10 -3> And they sent and called him. So Jeroboam and all Israel came and spake {to} Rehoboam, saying, to <2CH10 -6> And king Rehoboam took counsel with the old men that had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying, What counsel give ye [me] to return answer {to} this people? to <2CH10 -6> And king Rehoboam took counsel with the old men that had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying, What counsel give ye [me] {to} return answer to this people? to <2CH10 -7> And they spake unto him, saying, If thou be kind to this people, and please them, and speak good words {to} them, they will be thy servants for ever. to <2CH10 -7> And they spake unto him, saying, If thou be kind {to} this people, and please them, and speak good words to them, they will be thy servants for ever. to <2CH10 -9> And he said unto them, What advice give ye that we may return answer {to} this people, which have spoken to me, saying, Ease somewhat the yoke that thy father did put upon us? to <2CH10 -9> And he said unto them, What advice give ye that we may return answer to this people, which have spoken {to} me, saying, Ease somewhat the yoke that thy father did put upon us? to <2CH10 -11> For whereas my father put a heavy yoke upon you, I will put more {to} your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, but I [will chastise you] with scorpions. to <2CH10 -12> So Jeroboam and all the people came {to} Rehoboam on the third day, as the king bade, saying, Come again to me on the third day. to <2CH10 -12> So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day, as the king bade, saying, Come again {to} me on the third day. to <2CH10 -15> So the king hearkened not unto the people: for the cause was of God, that the LORD might perform his word, which he spake by the hand of Ahijah the Shilonite {to} Jeroboam the son of Nebat. to <2CH10 -16> And when all Israel [saw] that the king would not hearken unto them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? and [we have] none inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man {to} your tents, O Israel: [and] now, Da vid, see to thine own house. So all Israel went to their tents. to <2CH10 -16> And when all Israel [saw] that the king would not hearken unto them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? and [we have] none inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to your tents, O Israel: [and] now, Davi d, see {to} thine own house. So all Israel went to their tents. to <2CH10 -16> And when all Israel [saw] that the king would not hearken unto them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? and [we have] none inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to your tents, O Israel: [and] now, Davi d, see to thine own house. So all Israel went {to} their tents. to <2CH10 -18> Then king Rehoboam sent Hadoram that [was] over the tribute; and the children of Israel stoned him with stones, that he died. But king Rehoboam made speed to get him up to [his] chariot, {to} flee to Jerusalem. to <2CH10 -18> Then king Rehoboam sent Hadoram that [was] over the tribute; and the children of Israel stoned him with stones, that he died. But king Rehoboam made speed to get him up {to} [his] chariot, to flee to Jerusalem. to <2CH10 -18> Then king Rehoboam sent Hadoram that [was] over the tribute; and the children of Israel stoned him with stones, that he died. But king Rehoboam made speed {to} get him up to [his] chariot, to flee to Jerusalem. to <2CH10 -18> Then king Rehoboam sent Hadoram that [was] over the tribute; and the children of Israel stoned him with stones, that he died. But king Rehoboam made speed to get him up to [his] chariot, to flee {to} Jerusalem. to <2CH11 -1> And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he gathered of the house of Judah and Benjamin an hundred and fourscore thousand chosen [men], which were warriors, to fight against Israel, that he might bring the kingdom again {to} Rehoboam. to <2CH11 -1> And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he gathered of the house of Judah and Benjamin an hundred and fourscore thousand chosen [men], which were warriors, {to} fight against Israel, that he might bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam. to <2CH11 -1> And when Rehoboam was come {to} Jerusalem, he gathered of the house of Judah and Benjamin an hundred and fourscore thousand chosen [men], which were warriors, to fight against Israel, that he might bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam. to <2CH11 -2> But the word of the LORD came {to} Shemaiah the man of God, saying, to <2CH11 -3> Speak unto Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and {to} all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying, to <2CH11 -4> Thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: return every man {to} his house: for this thing is done of me. And they obeyed the words of the LORD, and returned from going against Jeroboam. to <2CH11 -13> And the priests and the Levites that [were] in all Israel resorted {to} him out of all their coasts. to <2CH11 -14> For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came {to} Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from executing the priest's office unto the LORD: to <2CH11 -16> And after them out of all the tribes of Israel such as set their hearts {to} seek the LORD God of Israel came to Jerusalem, to sacrifice unto the LORD God of their fathers. to <2CH11 -16> And after them out of all the tribes of Israel such as set their hearts to seek the LORD God of Israel came {to} Jerusalem, to sacrifice unto the LORD God of their fathers. to <2CH11 -16> And after them out of all the tribes of Israel such as set their hearts to seek the LORD God of Israel came to Jerusalem, {to} sacrifice unto the LORD God of their fathers. to <2CH11 -18> And Rehoboam took him Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David {to} wife, [and] Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse; to <2CH11 -22> And Rehoboam made Abijah the son of Maachah the chief, [to be] ruler among his brethren: for [he thought] {to} make him king. to <2CH11 -22> And Rehoboam made Abijah the son of Maachah the chief, [{to} be] ruler among his brethren: for [he thought] to make him king. to <2CH12 -1> And it came {to} pass, when Rehoboam had established the kingdom, and had strengthened himself, he forsook the law of the LORD, and all Israel with him. to <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, to <2CH12 -4> And he took the fenced cities which [pertained] to Judah, and came {to} Jerusalem. to <2CH12 -4> And he took the fenced cities which [pertained] {to} Judah, and came to Jerusalem. to <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 in the hand of Shishak. to <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 in the hand of Shishak. to <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 in the hand of Shishak. to <2CH12 -7> And when the LORD saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the LORD came {to} Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves; [therefore] I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance; and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak. to <2CH12 -10> Instead of which king Rehoboam made shields of brass, and committed [them] {to} the hands of the chief of the guard, that kept the entrance of the king's house. to <2CH12 -13> So king Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned: for Rehoboam [was] one and forty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of Isr ael, {to} put his name there. And his mother's name [was] Naamah an Ammonitess. to <2CH12 -13> So king Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned: for Rehoboam [was] one and forty years old when he began {to} reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of I srael, to put his name there. And his mother's name [was] Naamah an Ammonitess. to <2CH12 -14> And he did evil, because he prepared not his heart {to} seek the LORD. to <2CH13 -1> Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam began Abijah {to} reign over Judah. to <2CH13 -5> Ought ye not to know that the LORD God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel {to} David for ever, [even] to him and to his sons by a covenant of salt? to <2CH13 -5> Ought ye not to know that the LORD God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel to David for ever, [even] {to} him and to his sons by a covenant of salt? to <2CH13 -5> Ought ye not to know that the LORD God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel to David for ever, [even] to him and {to} his sons by a covenant of salt? to <2CH13 -5> Ought ye not {to} know that the LORD God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel to David for ever, [even] to him and to his sons by a covenant of salt? to <2CH13 -8> And now ye think {to} withstand the kingdom of the LORD in the hand of the sons of David; and ye [be] a great multitude, and [there are] with you golden calves, which Jeroboam made you for gods. to <2CH13 -9> Have ye not cast out the priests of the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and have made you priests after the manner of the nations of [other] lands? so that whosoever cometh {to} consecrate himself with a young bullock and seven ram s, [the same] may be a priest of [them that are] no gods. to <2CH13 -11> And they burn unto the LORD every morning and every evening burnt sacrifices and sweet incense: the showbread also [set they in order] upon the pure table; and the candlestick of gold with the lamps thereof, {to} burn every evening: for we keep the charge of the LORD our God; but ye have forsaken him. to <2CH13 -12> And, behold, God himself [is] with us for [our] captain, and his priests with sounding trumpets {to} cry alarm against you. O children of Israel, fight ye not against the LORD God of your fathers; for ye shall not prosper. to <2CH13 -13> But Jeroboam caused an ambushment {to} come about behind them: so they were before Judah, and the ambushment [was] behind them. to <2CH13 -15> Then the men of Judah gave a shout: and as the men of Judah shouted, it came {to} pass, that God smote Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah. to <2CH14 -4> And commanded Judah {to} seek the LORD God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment. to <2CH14 -4> And commanded Judah to seek the LORD God of their fathers, and {to} do the law and the commandment. to <2CH14 -11> And Asa cried unto the LORD his God, and said, LORD, [it is] nothing with thee {to} help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O LORD our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O LORD , thou [art] our God; let not man prevail against thee. to <2CH14 -15> They smote also the tents of cattle, and carried away sheep and camels in abundance, and returned {to} Jerusalem. to <2CH15 -2> And he went out {to} meet Asa, and said unto him, Hear ye me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; The LORD [is] with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek him, he will be found of you; but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you. to <2CH15 -5> And in those times [there was] no peace {to} him that went out, nor to him that came in, but great vexations [were] upon all the inhabitants of the countries. to <2CH15 -5> And in those times [there was] no peace to him that went out, nor {to} him that came in, but great vexations [were] upon all the inhabitants of the countries. to <2CH15 -9> And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and the strangers with them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon: for they fell {to} him out of Israel in abundance, when they saw that the LORD his God [was] with him. to <2CH15 -12> And they entered into a covenant {to} seek the LORD God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul; to <2CH15 -13> That whosoever would not seek the LORD God of Israel should be put {to} death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. to <2CH16 -1> In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, to the intent that he might let none go out or come in {to} Asa king of Judah. to <2CH16 -1> In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, {to} the intent that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah. to <2CH16 -2> Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the LORD and of the king's house, and sent {to} Benhadad king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying, to <2CH16 -5> And it came {to} pass, when Baasha heard [it], that he left off building of Ramah, and let his work cease. to <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. to <2CH16 -9> For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, {to} show himself strong in the behalf of [them] whose heart [is] perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars. to <2CH16 -9> For the eyes of the LORD run {to} and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of [them] whose heart [is] perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars. to <2CH16 -12> And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease [was] exceeding [great]: yet in his disease he sought not {to} the LORD, but to the physicians. to <2CH16 -12> And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease [was] exceeding [great]: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD, but {to} the physicians. to <2CH17 -4> But sought {to} the [LORD] God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel. to <2CH17 -5> Therefore the LORD stablished the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah brought {to} Jehoshaphat presents; and he had riches and honour in abundance. to <2CH17 -7> Also in the third year of his reign he sent {to} his princes, [even] to Benhail, and to Obadiah, and to Zechariah, and to Nethaneel, and to Michaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah. to <2CH17 -7> Also in the third year of his reign he sent to his princes, [even] to Benhail, and to Obadiah, and to Zechariah, and {to} Nethaneel, and to Michaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah. to <2CH17 -7> Also in the third year of his reign he sent to his princes, [even] to Benhail, and to Obadiah, and to Zechariah, and to Nethaneel, and {to} Michaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah. to <2CH17 -7> Also in the third year of his reign he sent to his princes, [even] to Benhail, and to Obadiah, and {to} Zechariah, and to Nethaneel, and to Michaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah. to <2CH17 -7> Also in the third year of his reign he sent to his princes, [even] {to} Benhail, and to Obadiah, and to Zechariah, and to Nethaneel, and to Michaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah. to <2CH17 -7> Also in the third year of his reign he sent to his princes, [even] to Benhail, and to Obadiah, and to Zechariah, and to Nethaneel, and to Michaiah, {to} teach in the cities of Judah. to <2CH17 -7> Also in the third year of his reign he sent to his princes, [even] to Benhail, and {to} Obadiah, and to Zechariah, and to Nethaneel, and to Michaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah. to <2CH17 -14> And these [are] the numbers of them according {to} the house of their fathers: Of Judah, the captains of thousands; Adnah the chief, and with him mighty men of valour three hundred thousand. to <2CH17 -15> And next {to} him [was] Jehohanan the captain, and with him two hundred and fourscore thousand. to <2CH18 -2> And after [certain] years he went down to Ahab to Samaria. And Ahab killed sheep and oxen for him in abundance, and for the people that [he had] with him, and persuaded him to go up [with him] {to} Ramothgilead. to <2CH18 -2> And after [certain] years he went down to Ahab to Samaria. And Ahab killed sheep and oxen for him in abundance, and for the people that [he had] with him, and persuaded him {to} go up [with him] to Ramothgilead. to <2CH18 -2> And after [certain] years he went down {to} Ahab to Samaria. And Ahab killed sheep and oxen for him in abundance, and for the people that [he had] with him, and persuaded him to go up [with him] to Ramothgilead. to <2CH18 -2> And after [certain] years he went down to Ahab {to} Samaria. And Ahab killed sheep and oxen for him in abundance, and for the people that [he had] with him, and persuaded him to go up [with him] to Ramothgilead. to <2CH18 -3> And Ahab king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat king of Judah, Wilt thou go with me {to} Ramothgilead? And he answered him, I [am] as thou [art], and my people as thy people; and [we will be] with thee in the war. to <2CH18 -4> And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, Inquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD {to} day. to <2CH18 -5> Therefore the king of Israel gathered together of prophets four hundred men, and said unto them, Shall we go {to} Ramothgilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up; for God will deliver [it] into the king's hand. to <2CH18 -5> Therefore the king of Israel gathered together of prophets four hundred men, and said unto them, Shall we go to Ramothgilead {to} battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up; for God will deliver [it] into the king's hand. to <2CH18 -11> And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up {to} Ramothgilead, and prosper: for the LORD shall deliver [it] into the hand of the king. to <2CH18 -12> And the messenger that went to call Micaiah spake to him, saying, Behold, the words of the prophets [declare] good {to} the king with one assent; let thy word therefore, I pray thee, be like one of theirs, and speak thou good. to <2CH18 -12> And the messenger that went to call Micaiah spake {to} him, saying, Behold, the words of the prophets [declare] good to the king with one assent; let thy word therefore, I pray thee, be like one of theirs, and speak thou good. to <2CH18 -12> And the messenger that went {to} call Micaiah spake to him, saying, Behold, the words of the prophets [declare] good to the king with one assent; let thy word therefore, I pray thee, be like one of theirs, and speak thou good. to <2CH18 -14> And when he was come {to} the king, the king said unto him, Micaiah, shall we go to Ramothgilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And he said, Go ye up, and prosper, and they shall be delivered into your hand. to <2CH18 -14> And when he was come to the king, the king said unto him, Micaiah, shall we go to Ramothgilead {to} battle, or shall I forbear? And he said, Go ye up, and prosper, and they shall be delivered into your hand. to <2CH18 -14> And when he was come to the king, the king said unto him, Micaiah, shall we go {to} Ramothgilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And he said, Go ye up, and prosper, and they shall be delivered into your hand. to <2CH18 -15> And the king said {to} him, How many times shall I adjure thee that thou say nothing but the truth to me in the name of the LORD? to <2CH18 -15> And the king said to him, How many times shall I adjure thee that thou say nothing but the truth {to} me in the name of the LORD? to <2CH18 -16> Then he said, I did see all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd: and the LORD said, These have no master; let them return [therefore] every man {to} his house in peace. to <2CH18 -17> And the king of Israel said {to} Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell thee [that] he would not prophesy good unto me, but evil? to <2CH18 -23> Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and smote Micaiah upon the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of the LORD from me {to} speak unto thee? to <2CH18 -24> And Micaiah said, Behold, thou shalt see on that day when thou shalt go into an inner chamber {to} hide thyself. to <2CH18 -25> Then the king of Israel said, Take ye Micaiah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city, and {to} Joash the king's son; to <2CH18 -25> Then the king of Israel said, Take ye Micaiah, and carry him back {to} Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king's son; to <2CH18 -28> So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up {to} Ramothgilead. to <2CH18 -29> And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and will go {to} the battle; but put thou on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went to the battle. to <2CH18 -29> And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and will go to the battle; but put thou on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went {to} the battle. to <2CH18 -31> And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It [is] the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him {to} fight: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him; and God moved them [to de part] from him. to <2CH18 -31> And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It [is] the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him to fight: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him; and God moved them [{to} de part] from him. to <2CH18 -31> And it came {to} pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It [is] the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him to fight: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him; and God moved them [to de part] from him. to <2CH18 -32> For it came {to} pass, that, when the captains of the chariots perceived that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back again from pursuing him. to <2CH18 -33> And a [certain] man drew a bow at a venture, and smote the king of Israel between the joints of the harness: therefore he said {to} his chariot man, Turn thine hand, that thou mayest carry me out of the host; for I am wounded. to <2CH19 -1> And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned to his house in peace {to} Jerusalem. to <2CH19 -1> And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned {to} his house in peace to Jerusalem. to <2CH19 -2> And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out {to} meet him, and said to king Jehoshaphat, Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the LORD? therefore [is] wrath upon thee from before the LORD. to <2CH19 -2> And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, and said {to} king Jehoshaphat, Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the LORD? therefore [is] wrath upon thee from before the LORD. to <2CH19 -3> Nevertheless there are good things found in thee, in that thou hast taken away the groves out of the land, and hast prepared thine heart {to} seek God. to <2CH19 -4> And Jehoshaphat dwelt at Jerusalem: and he went out again through the people from Beersheba {to} mount Ephraim, and brought them back unto the LORD God of their fathers. to <2CH19 -6> And said {to} the judges, Take heed what ye do: for ye judge not for man, but for the LORD, who [is] with you in the judgment. to <2CH19 -8> Moreover in Jerusalem did Jehoshaphat set of the Levites, and [of] the priests, and of the chief of the fathers of Israel, for the judgment of the LORD, and for controversies, when they returned {to} Jerusalem. to <2CH19 -10> And what cause soever shall come {to} you of your brethren that dwell in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and judgments, ye shall even warn them that they trespass not against the LORD, and [so] w rath come upon you, and upon your brethren: this do, and ye shall not trespass. to <2CH20 -1> It came to pass after this also, [that] the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them [other] beside the Ammonites, came against Jehoshaphat {to} battle. to <2CH20 -1> It came {to} pass after this also, [that] the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them [other] beside the Ammonites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle. to <2CH20 -3> And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself {to} seek the LORD, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah. to <2CH20 -4> And Judah gathered themselves together, to ask [help] of the LORD: even out of all the cities of Judah they came {to} seek the LORD. to <2CH20 -4> And Judah gathered themselves together, {to} ask [help] of the LORD: even out of all the cities of Judah they came to seek the LORD. to <2CH20 -6> And said, O LORD God of our fathers, [art] not thou God in heaven? and rulest [not] thou over all the kingdoms of the heathen? and in thine hand [is there not] power and might, so that none is able {to} withstand thee? to <2CH20 -7> Art] not thou our God, [who] didst drive out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and gavest it {to} the seed of Abraham thy friend for ever? to <2CH20 -11> Behold, [I say, how] they reward us, to come to cast us out of thy possession, which thou hast given us {to} inherit. to <2CH20 -11> Behold, [I say, how] they reward us, {to} come to cast us out of thy possession, which thou hast given us to inherit. to <2CH20 -11> Behold, [I say, how] they reward us, to come {to} cast us out of thy possession, which thou hast given us to inherit. to <2CH20 -12> O our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what {to} do: but our eyes [are] upon thee. to <2CH20 -16> {To} morrow go ye down against them: behold, they come up by the cliff of Ziz; and ye shall find them at the end of the brook, before the wilderness of Jeruel. to <2CH20 -17> Ye shall not [need] to fight in this [battle]: set yourselves, stand ye [still], and see the salvation of the LORD with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; {to} morrow go out against them: for the LORD [will be] with you. to <2CH20 -17> Ye shall not [need] {to} fight in this [battle]: set yourselves, stand ye [still], and see the salvation of the LORD with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; to morrow go out against them: for the LORD [will be] with you. to <2CH20 -18> And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with [his] face {to} the ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the LORD, worshipping the LORD. to <2CH20 -19> And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites, and of the children of the Korhites, stood up {to} praise the LORD God of Israel with a loud voice on high. to <2CH20 -21> And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the LORD, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and {to} say, Praise the LORD; for his mercy [endureth] for ever. to <2CH20 -22> And when they began to sing and {to} praise, the LORD set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten. to <2CH20 -22> And when they began {to} sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten. to <2CH20 -23> For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly {to} slay and destroy [them]: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another. to <2CH20 -23> For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy [them]: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped {to} destroy another. to <2CH20 -24> And when Judah came toward the watch tower in the wilderness, they looked unto the multitude, and, behold, they [were] dead bodies fallen {to} the earth, and none escaped. to <2CH20 -25> And when Jehoshaphat and his people came {to} take away the spoil of them, they found among them in abundance both riches with the dead bodies, and precious jewels, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away: an d they were three days in gathering of the spoil, it was so much. to <2CH20 -27> Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat in the forefront of them, to go again to Jerusalem with joy; for the LORD had made them {to} rejoice over their enemies. to <2CH20 -27> Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat in the forefront of them, {to} go again to Jerusalem with joy; for the LORD had made them to rejoice over their enemies. to <2CH20 -27> Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat in the forefront of them, to go again {to} Jerusalem with joy; for the LORD had made them to rejoice over their enemies. to <2CH20 -28> And they came {to} Jerusalem with psalteries and harps and trumpets unto the house of the LORD. to <2CH20 -31> And Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah: [he was] thirty and five years old when he began {to} reign, and he reigned twenty and five years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name [was] Azubah the daughter of Shilhi. to <2CH20 -36> And he joined himself with him to make ships to go {to} Tarshish: and they made the ships in Eziongaber. to <2CH20 -36> And he joined himself with him to make ships {to} go to Tarshish: and they made the ships in Eziongaber. to <2CH20 -36> And he joined himself with him {to} make ships to go to Tarshish: and they made the ships in Eziongaber. to <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. to <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. to <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. to <2CH21 -4> Now when Jehoram was risen up {to} the kingdom of his father, he strengthened himself, and slew all his brethren with the sword, and [divers] also of the princes of Israel. to <2CH21 -5> Jehoram [was] thirty and two years old when he began {to} reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. to <2CH21 -6> And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, like as did the house of Ahab: for he had the daughter of Ahab {to} wife: and he wrought [that which was] evil in the eyes of the LORD. to <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. to <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. to <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. to <2CH21 -11> Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem {to} commit fornication, and compelled Judah [thereto]. to <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, to <2CH21 -13> But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem {to} go a whoring, like to the whoredoms of the house of Ahab, and also hast slain thy brethren of thy father's house, [which were] bett er than thyself: to <2CH21 -13> But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a whoring, like {to} the whoredoms of the house of Ahab, and also hast slain thy brethren of thy father's house, [which were] bett er than thyself: to <2CH21 -19> And it came {to} pass, that in process of time, after the end of two years, his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness: so he died of sore diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers. to <2CH21 -20> Thirty and two years old was he when he began {to} reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years, and departed without being desired. Howbeit they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings. to <2CH22 -1> And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead: for the band of men that came with the Arabians {to} the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned. to <2CH22 -2> Forty and two years old [was] Ahaziah when he began {to} reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name also [was] Athaliah the daughter of Omri. to <2CH22 -3> He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab: for his mother was his counsellor {to} do wickedly. to <2CH22 -4> Wherefore he did evil in the sight of the LORD like the house of Ahab: for they were his counsellors after the death of his father {to} his destruction. to <2CH22 -5> He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab king of Israel {to} war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramothgilead: and the Syrians smote Joram. to <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, becaus e he was sick. to <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, becaus e he was sick. to <2CH22 -7> And the destruction of Ahaziah was of God by coming {to} Joram: for when he was come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab. to <2CH22 -7> And the destruction of Ahaziah was of God by coming to Joram: for when he was come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anointed {to} cut off the house of Ahab. to <2CH22 -8> And it came to pass, that, when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, and found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah, that ministered {to} Ahaziah, he slew them. to <2CH22 -8> And it came {to} pass, that, when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, and found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah, that ministered to Ahaziah, he slew them. to <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. So the house of Ahaziah had no power to keep still the kingdom. to <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. So th e house of Ahaziah had no power {to} keep still the kingdom. to <2CH23 -2> And they went about in Judah, and gathered the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and the chief of the fathers of Israel, and they came {to} Jerusalem. to <2CH23 -7> And the Levites shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and whosoever [else] cometh into the house, he shall be put {to} death: but be ye with the king when he cometh in, and when he goeth out. to <2CH23 -8> So the Levites and all Judah did according {to} all things that Jehoiada the priest had commanded, and took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that were to go [out] on the sabbath: for Jehoiada the priest dismis sed not the courses. to <2CH23 -8> So the Levites and all Judah did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest had commanded, and took every man his men that were {to} come in on the sabbath, with them that were to go [out] on the sabbath: for Jehoiada the priest dismis sed not the courses. to <2CH23 -8> So the Levites and all Judah did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest had commanded, and took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that were {to} go [out] on the sabbath: for Jehoiada the priest dismis sed not the courses. to <2CH23 -9> Moreover Jehoiada the priest delivered {to} the captains of hundreds spears, and bucklers, and shields, that [had been] king David's, which [were] in the house of God. to <2CH23 -10> And he set all the people, every man having his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the temple {to} the left side of the temple, along by the altar and the temple, by the king round about. to <2CH23 -12> Now when Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came {to} the people into the house of the LORD: to <2CH23 -13> And she looked, and, behold, the king stood at his pillar at the entering in, and the princes and the trumpets by the king: and all the people of the land rejoiced, and sounded with trumpets, also the singers with instruments of music, and such as taught {to} sing praise. Then Athaliah rent her clothes, and said, Treason, Treason. to <2CH23 -15> So they laid hands on her; and when she was come {to} the entering of the horse gate by the king's house, they slew her there. to <2CH23 -17> Then all the people went {to} the house of Baal, and brake it down, and brake his altars and his images in pieces, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. to <2CH23 -18> Also Jehoiada appointed the offices of the house of the LORD by the hand of the priests the Levites, whom David had distributed in the house of the LORD, {to} offer the burnt offerings of the LORD, as [it is] written in the law of Moses, wi th rejoicing and with singing, [as it was ordained] by David. to <2CH24 -1> Joash [was] seven years old when he began {to} reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also [was] Zibiah of Beersheba. to <2CH24 -4> And it came to pass after this, [that] Joash was minded {to} repair the house of the LORD. to <2CH24 -4> And it came {to} pass after this, [that] Joash was minded to repair the house of the LORD. to <2CH24 -5> And he gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said {to} them, Go out unto the cities of Judah, and gather of all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that ye hasten the matter. Howbeit the Levit es hastened [it] not. to <2CH24 -5> And he gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out unto the cities of Judah, and gather of all Israel money {to} repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that ye hasten the matter. Howbeit the Levit es hastened [it] not. to <2CH24 -5> And he gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out unto the cities of Judah, and gather of all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year {to} year, and see that ye hasten the matter. Howbeit the Levit es hastened [it] not. to <2CH24 -6> And the king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said unto him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the collection, [according {to} the commandment] of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle of witness? to <2CH24 -6> And the king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said unto him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites {to} bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the collection, [according to the commandment] of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle of witness? to <2CH24 -9> And they made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in {to} the LORD the collection [that] Moses the servant of God [laid] upon Israel in the wilderness. to <2CH24 -9> And they made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, {to} bring in to the LORD the collection [that] Moses the servant of God [laid] upon Israel in the wilderness. to <2CH24 -11> Now it came to pass, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king's office by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that [there was] much money, the king's scribe and the high priest's officer came and emptied the chest, and t ook it, and carried it {to} his place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance. to <2CH24 -11> Now it came {to} pass, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king's office by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that [there was] much money, the king's scribe and the high priest's officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to his place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance. to <2CH24 -12> And the king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and hired masons and carpenters to repair the house of the LORD, and also such as wrought iron and brass {to} mend the house of the LORD. to <2CH24 -12> And the king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and hired masons and carpenters {to} repair the house of the LORD, and also such as wrought iron and brass to mend the house of the LORD. to <2CH24 -12> And the king and Jehoiada gave it {to} such as did the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and hired masons and carpenters to repair the house of the LORD, and also such as wrought iron and brass to mend the house of the LORD. to <2CH24 -14> And when they had finished [it], they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, whereof were made vessels for the house of the LORD, [even] vessels {to} minister, and to offer [withal], and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of the LORD continually all the days of Jehoiada. to <2CH24 -14> And when they had finished [it], they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, whereof were made vessels for the house of the LORD, [even] vessels to minister, and {to} offer [withal], and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of the LORD continually all the days of Jehoiada. to <2CH24 -17> Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah, and made obeisance {to} the king. Then the king hearkened unto them. to <2CH24 -19> Yet he sent prophets to them, {to} bring them again unto the LORD; and they testified against them: but they would not give ear. to <2CH24 -19> Yet he sent prophets {to} them, to bring them again unto the LORD; and they testified against them: but they would not give ear. to <2CH24 -22> Thus Joash the king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done {to} him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said, The LORD look upon [it], and require [it]. to <2CH24 -23> And it came to pass at the end of the year, [that] the host of Syria came up against him: and they came {to} Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoil of them unto the kin g of Damascus. to <2CH24 -23> And it came {to} pass at the end of the year, [that] the host of Syria came up against him: and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoil of them unto the kin g of Damascus. to <2CH25 -1> Amaziah [was] twenty and five years old [when] he began {to} reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name [was] Jehoaddan of Jerusalem. to <2CH25 -3> Now it came to pass, when the kingdom was established {to} him, that he slew his servants that had killed the king his father. to <2CH25 -3> Now it came {to} pass, when the kingdom was established to him, that he slew his servants that had killed the king his father. to <2CH25 -5> Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together, and made them captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, according to the houses of [their] fathers, throughout all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and above, and found them three hundred thousand choice [men, able] {to} go forth to war, that could handle spear and shield. to <2CH25 -5> Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together, and made them captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, according to the houses of [their] fathers, throughout all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and above, and found them three hundred thousand choice [men, able] to go forth {to} war, that could handle spear and shield. to <2CH25 -5> Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together, and made them captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, according {to} the houses of [their] fathers, throughout all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and abov e, and found them three hundred thousand choice [men, able] to go forth to war, that could handle spear and shield. to <2CH25 -7> But there came a man of God {to} him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with thee; for the LORD [is] not with Israel, [to wit, with] all the children of Ephraim. to <2CH25 -7> But there came a man of God to him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with thee; for the LORD [is] not with Israel, [{to} wit, with] all the children of Ephraim. to <2CH25 -8> But if thou wilt go, do [it], be strong for the battle: God shall make thee fall before the enemy: for God hath power {to} help, and to cast down. to <2CH25 -8> But if thou wilt go, do [it], be strong for the battle: God shall make thee fall before the enemy: for God hath power to help, and {to} cast down. to <2CH25 -9> And Amaziah said to the man of God, But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of God answered, The LORD is able {to} give thee much more than this. to <2CH25 -9> And Amaziah said to the man of God, But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given {to} the army of Israel? And the man of God answered, The LORD is able to give thee much more than this. to <2CH25 -9> And Amaziah said {to} the man of God, But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of God answered, The LORD is able to give thee much more than this. to <2CH25 -10> Then Amaziah separated them, [to wit], the army that was come {to} him out of Ephraim, to go home again: wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in great anger. to <2CH25 -10> Then Amaziah separated them, [{to} wit], the army that was come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again: wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in great anger. to <2CH25 -10> Then Amaziah separated them, [to wit], the army that was come to him out of Ephraim, {to} go home again: wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in great anger. to <2CH25 -11> And Amaziah strengthened himself, and led forth his people, and went {to} the valley of salt, and smote of the children of Seir ten thousand. to <2CH25 -13> But the soldiers of the army which Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him {to} battle, fell upon the cities of Judah, from Samaria even unto Bethhoron, and smote three thousand of them, and took much spoil. to <2CH25 -14> Now it came to pass, after that Amaziah was come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up [{to} be] his gods, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense unto them. to <2CH25 -14> Now it came {to} pass, after that Amaziah was come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up [to be] his gods, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense unto them. to <2CH25 -16> And it came to pass, as he talked with him, that [the king] said unto him, Art thou made of the king's counsel? forbear; why shouldest thou be smitten? Then the prophet forbare, and said, I know that God hath determined {to} destroy thee, b ecause thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel. to <2CH25 -16> And it came {to} pass, as he talked with him, that [the king] said unto him, Art thou made of the king's counsel? forbear; why shouldest thou be smitten? Then the prophet forbare, and said, I know that God hath determined to destroy thee, b ecause thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel. to <2CH25 -17> Then Amaziah king of Judah took advice, and sent {to} Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us see one another in the face. to <2CH25 -18> And Joash king of Israel sent {to} Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that [was] in Lebanon sent to the cedar that [was] in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that [was] in Lebanon , and trode down the thistle. to <2CH25 -18> And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that [was] in Lebanon sent {to} the cedar that [was] in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that [was] in Lebanon , and trode down the thistle. to <2CH25 -18> And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that [was] in Lebanon sent to the cedar that [was] in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter {to} my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that [was] in Lebanon , and trode down the thistle. to <2CH25 -18> And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that [was] in Lebanon sent to the cedar that [was] in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son {to} wife: and there passed by a wild beast that [was] in Lebanon , and trode down the thistle. to <2CH25 -19> Thou sayest, Lo, thou hast smitten the Edomites; and thine heart lifteth thee up {to} boast: abide now at home; why shouldest thou meddle to [thine] hurt, that thou shouldest fall, [even] thou, and Judah with thee? to <2CH25 -19> Thou sayest, Lo, thou hast smitten the Edomites; and thine heart lifteth thee up to boast: abide now at home; why shouldest thou meddle {to} [thine] hurt, that thou shouldest fall, [even] thou, and Judah with thee? to <2CH25 -21> So Joash the king of Israel went up; and they saw one another in the face, [both] he and Amaziah king of Judah, at Bethshemesh, which [belongeth] {to} Judah. to <2CH25 -22> And Judah was put to the worse before Israel, and they fled every man {to} his tent. to <2CH25 -22> And Judah was put {to} the worse before Israel, and they fled every man to his tent. to <2CH25 -23> And Joash the king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, at Bethshemesh, and brought him to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim {to} the corner gate, four hundred c ubits. to <2CH25 -23> And Joash the king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, at Bethshemesh, and brought him {to} Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred c ubits. to <2CH25 -24> And [he took] all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of God with Obededom, and the treasures of the king's house, the hostages also, and returned {to} Samaria. to <2CH25 -27> Now after the time that Amaziah did turn away from following the LORD they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem; and he fled {to} Lachish: but they sent to Lachish after him, and slew him there. to <2CH25 -27> Now after the time that Amaziah did turn away from following the LORD they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem; and he fled to Lachish: but they sent {to} Lachish after him, and slew him there. to <2CH26 -2> He built Eloth, and restored it {to} Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers. to <2CH26 -3> Sixteen years old [was] Uzziah when he began {to} reign, and he reigned fifty and two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also [was] Jecoliah of Jerusalem. to <2CH26 -4> And he did [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD, according {to} all that his father Amaziah did. to <2CH26 -5> And he sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions of God: and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him {to} prosper. to <2CH26 -8> And the Ammonites gave gifts {to} Uzziah: and his name spread abroad [even] to the entering in of Egypt; for he strengthened [himself] exceedingly. to <2CH26 -8> And the Ammonites gave gifts to Uzziah: and his name spread abroad [even] {to} the entering in of Egypt; for he strengthened [himself] exceedingly. to <2CH26 -11> Moreover Uzziah had an host of fighting men, that went out to war by bands, according {to} the number of their account by the hand of Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the ruler, under the hand of Hananiah, [one] of the king's captains. to <2CH26 -11> Moreover Uzziah had an host of fighting men, that went out {to} war by bands, according to the number of their account by the hand of Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the ruler, under the hand of Hananiah, [one] of the king's captains. to <2CH26 -13> And under their hand [was] an army, three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred, that made war with mighty power, {to} help the king against the enemy. to <2CH26 -14> And Uzziah prepared for them throughout all the host shields, and spears, and helmets, and habergeons, and bows, and slings [{to} cast] stones. to <2CH26 -15> And he made in Jerusalem engines, invented by cunning men, to be on the towers and upon the bulwarks, {to} shoot arrows and great stones withal. And his name spread far abroad; for he was marvellously helped, till he was strong. to <2CH26 -15> And he made in Jerusalem engines, invented by cunning men, {to} be on the towers and upon the bulwarks, to shoot arrows and great stones withal. And his name spread far abroad; for he was marvellously helped, till he was strong. to <2CH26 -16> But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to [his] destruction: for he transgressed against the LORD his God, and went into the temple of the LORD {to} burn incense upon the altar of incense. to <2CH26 -16> But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up {to} [his] destruction: for he transgressed against the LORD his God, and went into the temple of the LORD to burn incense upon the altar of incense. to <2CH26 -18> And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said unto him, [It appertaineth] not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense unto the LORD, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated {to} burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou h ast trespassed; neither [shall it be] for thine honour from the LORD God. to <2CH26 -18> And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said unto him, [It appertaineth] not unto thee, Uzziah, {to} burn incense unto the LORD, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou h ast trespassed; neither [shall it be] for thine honour from the LORD God. to <2CH26 -18> And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said unto him, [It appertaineth] not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense unto the LORD, but {to} the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou h ast trespassed; neither [shall it be] for thine honour from the LORD God. to <2CH26 -19> Then Uzziah was wroth, and [had] a censer in his hand {to} burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even rose up in his forehead before the priests in the house of the LORD, from beside the incense altar. to <2CH26 -20> And Azariah the chief priest, and all the priests, looked upon him, and, behold, he [was] leprous in his forehead, and they thrust him out from thence; yea, himself hasted also {to} go out, because the LORD had smitten him. to <2CH26 -23> So Uzziah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the field of the burial which [belonged] {to} the kings; for they said, He [is] a leper: and Jotham his son reigned in his stead. to <2CH27 -1> Jotham [was] twenty and five years old when he began {to} reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also [was] Jerushah, the daughter of Zadok. to <2CH27 -2> And he did [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD, according {to} all that his father Uzziah did: howbeit he entered not into the temple of the LORD. And the people did yet corruptly. to <2CH27 -8> He was five and twenty years old when he began {to} reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. to <2CH28 -1> Ahaz [was] twenty years old when he began {to} reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: but he did not [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD, like David his father: to <2CH28 -5> Wherefore the LORD his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria; and they smote him, and carried away a great multitude of them captives, and brought [them] {to} Damascus. And he was also delivered into the hand of the king of Is rael, who smote him with a great slaughter. to <2CH28 -7> And Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, slew Maaseiah the king's son, and Azrikam the governor of the house, and Elkanah [that was] next {to} the king. to <2CH28 -8> And the children of Israel carried away captive of their brethren two hundred thousand, women, sons, and daughters, and took also away much spoil from them, and brought the spoil {to} Samaria. to <2CH28 -9> But a prophet of the LORD was there, whose name [was] Oded: and he went out before the host that came {to} Samaria, and said unto them, Behold, because the LORD God of your fathers was wroth with Judah, he hath delivered them into your hand, and ye have slain them in a rage [that] reacheth up unto heaven. to <2CH28 -10> And now ye purpose {to} keep under the children of Judah and Jerusalem for bondmen and bondwomen unto you: [but are there] not with you, even with you, sins against the LORD your God? to <2CH28 -13> And said unto them, Ye shall not bring in the captives hither: for whereas we have offended against the LORD [already], ye intend {to} add [more] to our sins and to our trespass: for our trespass is great, and [there is] fierce wrath agains t Israel. to <2CH28 -13> And said unto them, Ye shall not bring in the captives hither: for whereas we have offended against the LORD [already], ye intend to add [more] to our sins and {to} our trespass: for our trespass is great, and [there is] fierce wrath agains t Israel. to <2CH28 -13> And said unto them, Ye shall not bring in the captives hither: for whereas we have offended against the LORD [already], ye intend to add [more] {to} our sins and to our trespass: for our trespass is great, and [there is] fierce wrath agains t Israel. to <2CH28 -15> And the men which were expressed by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the f eeble of them upon asses, and brought them {to} Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brethren: then they returned to Samaria. to <2CH28 -15> And the men which were expressed by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and {to} drink, and anointed them, and carried all the feeble of them upon asses, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brethren: then they returned to Samaria. to <2CH28 -15> And the men which were expressed by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them {to} eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the feeble of them upon asses, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brethren: then they returned to Samaria. to <2CH28 -15> And the men which were expressed by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the f eeble of them upon asses, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brethren: then they returned {to} Samaria. to <2CH28 -15> And the men which were expressed by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the f eeble of them upon asses, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, {to} their brethren: then they returned to Samaria. to <2CH28 -16> At that time did king Ahaz send unto the kings of Assyria {to} help him. to <2CH28 -23> For he sacrificed unto the gods of Damascus, which smote him: and he said, Because the gods of the kings of Syria help them, [therefore] will I sacrifice {to} them, that they may help me. But they were the ruin of him, and of all Israel. to <2CH28 -25> And in every several city of Judah he made high places to burn incense unto other gods, and provoked {to} anger the LORD God of his fathers. to <2CH28 -25> And in every several city of Judah he made high places {to} burn incense unto other gods, and provoked to anger the LORD God of his fathers. to <2CH29 -1> Hezekiah began {to} reign [when he was] five and twenty years old, and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name [was] Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah. to <2CH29 -2> And he did [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD, according {to} all that David his father had done. to <2CH29 -8> Wherefore the wrath of the LORD was upon Judah and Jerusalem, and he hath delivered them {to} trouble, to astonishment, and to hissing, as ye see with your eyes. to <2CH29 -8> Wherefore the wrath of the LORD was upon Judah and Jerusalem, and he hath delivered them to trouble, {to} astonishment, and to hissing, as ye see with your eyes. to <2CH29 -8> Wherefore the wrath of the LORD was upon Judah and Jerusalem, and he hath delivered them to trouble, to astonishment, and {to} hissing, as ye see with your eyes. to <2CH29 -10> Now [it is] in mine heart {to} make a covenant with the LORD God of Israel, that his fierce wrath may turn away from us. to <2CH29 -11> My sons, be not now negligent: for the LORD hath chosen you to stand before him, {to} serve him, and that ye should minister unto him, and burn incense. to <2CH29 -11> My sons, be not now negligent: for the LORD hath chosen you {to} stand before him, to serve him, and that ye should minister unto him, and burn incense. to <2CH29 -15> And they gathered their brethren, and sanctified themselves, and came, according {to} the commandment of the king, by the words of the LORD, to cleanse the house of the LORD. to <2CH29 -15> And they gathered their brethren, and sanctified themselves, and came, according to the commandment of the king, by the words of the LORD, {to} cleanse the house of the LORD. to <2CH29 -16> And the priests went into the inner part of the house of the LORD, {to} cleanse [it], and brought out all the uncleanness that they found in the temple of the LORD into the court of the house of the LORD. And the Levites took [it], to carry [it] out abroad into the brook Kidron. to <2CH29 -16> And the priests went into the inner part of the house of the LORD, to cleanse [it], and brought out all the uncleanness that they found in the temple of the LORD into the court of the house of the LORD. And the Levites took [it], {to} carry [it] out abroad into the brook Kidron. to <2CH29 -17> Now they began on the first [day] of the first month {to} sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month came they to the porch of the LORD: so they sanctified the house of the LORD in eight days; and in the sixteenth day of the first month t hey made an end. to <2CH29 -17> Now they began on the first [day] of the first month to sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month came they {to} the porch of the LORD: so they sanctified the house of the LORD in eight days; and in the sixteenth day of the first month t hey made an end. to <2CH29 -18> Then they went in {to} Hezekiah the king, and said, We have cleansed all the house of the LORD, and the altar of burnt offering, with all the vessels thereof, and the showbread table, with all the vessels thereof. to <2CH29 -20> Then Hezekiah the king rose early, and gathered the rulers of the city, and went up {to} the house of the LORD. to <2CH29 -21> And they brought seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven he goats, for a sin offering for the kingdom, and for the sanctuary, and for Judah. And he commanded the priests the sons of Aaron {to} offer [them] on the altar of the LORD. to <2CH29 -24> And the priests killed them, and they made reconciliation with their blood upon the altar, {to} make an atonement for all Israel: for the king commanded [that] the burnt offering and the sin offering [should be made] for all Israel. to <2CH29 -25> And he set the Levites in the house of the LORD with cymbals, with psalteries, and with harps, according {to} the commandment of David, and of Gad the king's seer, and Nathan the prophet: for [so was] the commandment of the LORD by his prop hets. to <2CH29 -27> And Hezekiah commanded {to} offer the burnt offering upon the altar. And when the burnt offering began, the song of the LORD began [also] with the trumpets, and with the instruments [ordained] by David king of Israel. to <2CH29 -30> Moreover Hezekiah the king and the princes commanded the Levites {to} sing praise unto the LORD with the words of David, and of Asaph the seer. And they sang praises with gladness, and they bowed their heads and worshipped. to <2CH29 -32> And the number of the burnt offerings, which the congregation brought, was threescore and ten bullocks, an hundred rams, [and] two hundred lambs: all these [were] for a burnt offering {to} the LORD. to <2CH29 -34> But the priests were too few, so that they could not flay all the burnt offerings: wherefore their brethren the Levites did help them, till the work was ended, and until the [other] priests had sanctified themselves: for the Levites [were] more upright in heart {to} sanctify themselves than the priests. to <2CH30 -1> And Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come {to} the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, to keep the passover unto the LORD God of Israel. to <2CH30 -1> And Hezekiah sent {to} all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, to keep the passover unto the LORD God of Israel. to <2CH30 -1> And Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, {to} keep the passover unto the LORD God of Israel. to <2CH30 -1> And Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also {to} Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, to keep the passover unto the LORD God of Israel. to <2CH30 -2> For the king had taken counsel, and his princes, and all the congregation in Jerusalem, {to} keep the passover in the second month. to <2CH30 -3> For they could not keep it at that time, because the priests had not sanctified themselves sufficiently, neither had the people gathered themselves together {to} Jerusalem. to <2CH30 -5> So they established a decree {to} make proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba even to Dan, that they should come to keep the passover unto the LORD God of Israel at Jerusalem: for they had not done [it] of a long [time in such so rt] as it was written. to <2CH30 -5> So they established a decree to make proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba even {to} Dan, that they should come to keep the passover unto the LORD God of Israel at Jerusalem: for they had not done [it] of a long [time in such so rt] as it was written. to <2CH30 -5> So they established a decree to make proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba even to Dan, that they should come {to} keep the passover unto the LORD God of Israel at Jerusalem: for they had not done [it] of a long [time in such so rt] as it was written. to <2CH30 -6> So the posts went with the letters from the king and his princes throughout all Israel and Judah, and according {to} the commandment of the king, saying, Ye children of Israel, turn again unto the LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, and he will return to the remnant of you, that are escaped out of the hand of the kings of Assyria. to <2CH30 -6> So the posts went with the letters from the king and his princes throughout all Israel and Judah, and according to the commandment of the king, saying, Ye children of Israel, turn again unto the LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, and he will return {to} the remnant of you, that are escaped out of the hand of the kings of Assyria. to <2CH30 -7> And be not ye like your fathers, and like your brethren, which trespassed against the LORD God of their fathers, [who] therefore gave them up {to} desolation, as ye see. to <2CH30 -10> So the posts passed from city {to} city through the country of Ephraim and Manasseh even unto Zebulun: but they laughed them to scorn, and mocked them. to <2CH30 -10> So the posts passed from city to city through the country of Ephraim and Manasseh even unto Zebulun: but they laughed them {to} scorn, and mocked them. to <2CH30 -11> Nevertheless divers of Asher and Manasseh and of Zebulun humbled themselves, and came {to} Jerusalem. to <2CH30 -12> Also in Judah the hand of God was to give them one heart {to} do the commandment of the king and of the princes, by the word of the LORD. to <2CH30 -12> Also in Judah the hand of God was {to} give them one heart to do the commandment of the king and of the princes, by the word of the LORD. to <2CH30 -13> And there assembled at Jerusalem much people {to} keep the feast of unleavened bread in the second month, a very great congregation. to <2CH30 -16> And they stood in their place after their manner, according {to} the law of Moses the man of God: the priests sprinkled the blood, [which they received] of the hand of the Levites. to <2CH30 -17> For [there were] many in the congregation that were not sanctified: therefore the Levites had the charge of the killing of the passovers for every one [that was] not clean, {to} sanctify [them] unto the LORD. to <2CH30 -19> That] prepareth his heart {to} seek God, the LORD God of his fathers, though [he be] not [cleansed] according to the purification of the sanctuary. to <2CH30 -19> That] prepareth his heart to seek God, the LORD God of his fathers, though [he be] not [cleansed] according {to} the purification of the sanctuary. to <2CH30 -20> And the LORD hearkened {to} Hezekiah, and healed the people. to <2CH30 -22> And Hezekiah spake comfortably unto all the Levites that taught the good knowledge of the LORD: and they did eat throughout the feast seven days, offering peace offerings, and making confession {to} the LORD God of their fathers. to <2CH30 -23> And the whole assembly took counsel {to} keep other seven days: and they kept [other] seven days with gladness. to <2CH30 -24> For Hezekiah king of Judah did give to the congregation a thousand bullocks and seven thousand sheep; and the princes gave {to} the congregation a thousand bullocks and ten thousand sheep: and a great number of priests sanctified themselves . to <2CH30 -24> For Hezekiah king of Judah did give {to} the congregation a thousand bullocks and seven thousand sheep; and the princes gave to the congregation a thousand bullocks and ten thousand sheep: and a great number of priests sanctified themselves . to <2CH30 -27> Then the priests the Levites arose and blessed the people: and their voice was heard, and their prayer came [up] {to} his holy dwelling place, [even] unto heaven. to <2CH31 -1> Now when all this was finished, all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and brake the images in pieces, and cut down the groves, and threw down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim al so and Manasseh, until they had utterly destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man {to} his possession, into their own cities. to <2CH31 -1> Now when all this was finished, all Israel that were present went out {to} the cities of Judah, and brake the images in pieces, and cut down the groves, and threw down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had utterly destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities. to <2CH31 -2> And Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priests and the Levites after their courses, every man according to his service, the priests and Levites for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and {to} praise in the gates of the tents of the LORD. to <2CH31 -2> And Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priests and the Levites after their courses, every man according to his service, the priests and Levites for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, to minister, and {to} give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the tents of the LORD. to <2CH31 -2> And Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priests and the Levites after their courses, every man according to his service, the priests and Levites for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, {to} minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the tents of the LORD. to <2CH31 -2> And Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priests and the Levites after their courses, every man according {to} his service, the priests and Levites for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the tents of the LORD. to <2CH31 -3> He appointed] also the king's portion of his substance for the burnt offerings, [{to} wit], for the morning and evening burnt offerings, and the burnt offerings for the sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the set feasts, as [it is] writ ten in the law of the LORD. to <2CH31 -4> Moreover he commanded the people that dwelt in Jerusalem {to} give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might be encouraged in the law of the LORD. to <2CH31 -7> In the third month they began {to} lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished [them] in the seventh month. to <2CH31 -10> And Azariah the chief priest of the house of Zadok answered him, and said, Since [the people] began {to} bring the offerings into the house of the LORD, we have had enough to eat, and have left plenty: for the LORD hath blessed his people; and that which is left [is] this great store. to <2CH31 -10> And Azariah the chief priest of the house of Zadok answered him, and said, Since [the people] began to bring the offerings into the house of the LORD, we have had enough {to} eat, and have left plenty: for the LORD hath blessed his people; and that which is left [is] this great store. to <2CH31 -11> Then Hezekiah commanded {to} prepare chambers in the house of the LORD; and they prepared [them], to <2CH31 -14> And Kore the son of Imnah the Levite, the porter toward the east, [was] over the freewill offerings of God, {to} distribute the oblations of the LORD, and the most holy things. to <2CH31 -15> And next him [were] Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in [their] set office, {to} give to their brethren by courses, as well to the great as to the small: to <2CH31 -15> And next him [were] Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in [their] set office, to give {to} their brethren by courses, as well to the great as to the small: to <2CH31 -15> And next him [were] Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in [their] set office, to give to their brethren by courses, as well to the great as {to} the small: to <2CH31 -15> And next him [were] Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in [their] set office, to give to their brethren by courses, as well {to} the great as to the small: to <2CH31 -16> Beside their genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, [even] unto every one that entereth into the house of the LORD, his daily portion for their service in their charges according {to} their courses; to <2CH31 -17> Both {to} the genealogy of the priests by the house of their fathers, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their charges by their courses; to <2CH31 -18> And {to} the genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation: for in their set office they sanctified themselves in holiness: to <2CH31 -19> Also of the sons of Aaron the priests, [which were] in the fields of the suburbs of their cities, in every several city, the men that were expressed by name, {to} give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all that were reckon ed by genealogies among the Levites. to <2CH31 -19> Also of the sons of Aaron the priests, [which were] in the fields of the suburbs of their cities, in every several city, the men that were expressed by name, to give portions to all the males among the priests, and {to} all that were reckon ed by genealogies among the Levites. to <2CH31 -19> Also of the sons of Aaron the priests, [which were] in the fields of the suburbs of their cities, in every several city, the men that were expressed by name, to give portions {to} all the males among the priests, and to all that were reckon ed by genealogies among the Levites. to <2CH31 -21> And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, {to} seek his God, he did [it] with all his heart, and prospered. to <2CH32 -1> After these things, and the establishment thereof, Sennacherib king of Assyria came, and entered into Judah, and encamped against the fenced cities, and thought {to} win them for himself. to <2CH32 -2> And when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib was come, and that he was purposed {to} fight against Jerusalem, to <2CH32 -3> He took counsel with his princes and his mighty men {to} stop the waters of the fountains which [were] without the city: and they did help him. to <2CH32 -5> Also he strengthened himself, and built up all the wall that was broken, and raised [it] up {to} the towers, and another wall without, and repaired Millo [in] the city of David, and made darts and shields in abundance. to <2CH32 -6> And he set captains of war over the people, and gathered them together {to} him in the street of the gate of the city, and spake comfortably to them, saying, to <2CH32 -6> And he set captains of war over the people, and gathered them together to him in the street of the gate of the city, and spake comfortably {to} them, saying, to <2CH32 -8> With him [is] an arm of flesh; but with us [is] the LORD our God to help us, and {to} fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah. to <2CH32 -8> With him [is] an arm of flesh; but with us [is] the LORD our God {to} help us, and to fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah. to <2CH32 -9> After this did Sennacherib king of Assyria send his servants {to} Jerusalem, (but he [himself laid siege] against Lachish, and all his power with him,) unto Hezekiah king of Judah, and unto all Judah that [were] at Jerusalem, saying, to <2CH32 -11> Doth not Hezekiah persuade you to give over yourselves {to} die by famine and by thirst, saying, The LORD our God shall deliver us out of the hand of the king of Assyria? to <2CH32 -11> Doth not Hezekiah persuade you {to} give over yourselves to die by famine and by thirst, saying, The LORD our God shall deliver us out of the hand of the king of Assyria? to <2CH32 -13> Know ye not what I and my fathers have done unto all the people of [other] lands? were the gods of the nations of those lands any ways able {to} deliver their lands out of mine hand? to <2CH32 -14> Who [was there] among all the gods of those nations that my fathers utterly destroyed, that could deliver his people out of mine hand, that your God should be able {to} deliver you out of mine hand? to <2CH32 -15> Now therefore let not Hezekiah deceive you, nor persuade you on this manner, neither yet believe him: for no god of any nation or kingdom was able {to} deliver his people out of mine hand, and out of the hand of my fathers: how much less sh all your God deliver you out of mine hand? to <2CH32 -17> He wrote also letters to rail on the LORD God of Israel, and {to} speak against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of [other] lands have not delivered their people out of mine hand, so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliver his people o ut of mine hand. to <2CH32 -17> He wrote also letters {to} rail on the LORD God of Israel, and to speak against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of [other] lands have not delivered their people out of mine hand, so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliver his people o ut of mine hand. to <2CH32 -18> Then they cried with a loud voice in the Jews' speech unto the people of Jerusalem that [were] on the wall, to affright them, and {to} trouble them; that they might take the city. to <2CH32 -18> Then they cried with a loud voice in the Jews' speech unto the people of Jerusalem that [were] on the wall, {to} affright them, and to trouble them; that they might take the city. to <2CH32 -20> And for this [cause] Hezekiah the king, and the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz, prayed and cried {to} heaven. to <2CH32 -21> And the LORD sent an angel, which cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and captains in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face {to} his own land. And when he was come into the house of his god, th ey that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword. to <2CH32 -23> And many brought gifts unto the LORD {to} Jerusalem, and presents to Hezekiah king of Judah: so that he was magnified in the sight of all nations from thenceforth. to <2CH32 -23> And many brought gifts unto the LORD to Jerusalem, and presents {to} Hezekiah king of Judah: so that he was magnified in the sight of all nations from thenceforth. to <2CH32 -24> In those days Hezekiah was sick {to} the death, and prayed unto the LORD: and he spake unto him, and he gave him a sign. to <2CH32 -25> But Hezekiah rendered not again according {to} the benefit [done] unto him; for his heart was lifted up: therefore there was wrath upon him, and upon Judah and Jerusalem. to <2CH32 -30> This same Hezekiah also stopped the upper watercourse of Gihon, and brought it straight down {to} the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all his works. to <2CH32 -31> Howbeit in [the business of] the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent unto him to inquire of the wonder that was [done] in the land, God left him, {to} try him, that he might know all [that was] in his heart. to <2CH32 -31> Howbeit in [the business of] the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent unto him {to} inquire of the wonder that was [done] in the land, God left him, to try him, that he might know all [that was] in his heart. to <2CH33 -1> Manasseh [was] twelve years old when he began {to} reign, and he reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem: to <2CH33 -6> And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, {to} provoke him to anger. to <2CH33 -6> And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him {to} anger. to <2CH33 -6> And he caused his children {to} pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sig ht of the LORD, to provoke him to anger. to <2CH33 -7> And he set a carved image, the idol which he had made, in the house of God, of which God had said {to} David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen before all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever: to <2CH33 -7> And he set a carved image, the idol which he had made, in the house of God, of which God had said to David and {to} Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen before all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever: to <2CH33 -8> Neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from out of the land which I have appointed for your fathers; so that they will take heed {to} do all that I have commanded them, according to the whole law and the statutes and the ordinance s by the hand of Moses. to <2CH33 -8> Neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from out of the land which I have appointed for your fathers; so that they will take heed to do all that I have commanded them, according {to} the whole law and the statutes and the ordinance s by the hand of Moses. to <2CH33 -9> So Manasseh made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to err, [and] {to} do worse than the heathen, whom the LORD had destroyed before the children of Israel. to <2CH33 -9> So Manasseh made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem {to} err, [and] to do worse than the heathen, whom the LORD had destroyed before the children of Israel. to <2CH33 -10> And the LORD spake to Manasseh, and {to} his people: but they would not hearken. to <2CH33 -10> And the LORD spake {to} Manasseh, and to his people: but they would not hearken. to <2CH33 -11> Wherefore the LORD brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, which took Manasseh among the thorns, and bound him with fetters, and carried him {to} Babylon. to <2CH33 -13> And prayed unto him: and he was entreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again {to} Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD he [was] God. to <2CH33 -14> Now after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even {to} the entering in at the fish gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great height, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Judah. to <2CH33 -16> And he repaired the altar of the LORD, and sacrificed thereon peace offerings and thank offerings, and commanded Judah {to} serve the LORD God of Israel. to <2CH33 -18> Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer unto his God, and the words of the seers that spake {to} him in the name of the LORD God of Israel, behold, they [are written] in the book of the kings of Israel. to <2CH33 -21> Amon [was] two and twenty years old when he began {to} reign, and reigned two years in Jerusalem. to <2CH34 -1> Josiah [was] eight years old when he began {to} reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem one and thirty years. to <2CH34 -2> And he did [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the ways of David his father, and declined [neither] to the right hand, nor {to} the left. to <2CH34 -2> And he did [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the ways of David his father, and declined [neither] {to} the right hand, nor to the left. to <2CH34 -3> For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began {to} seek after the God of David his father: and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images. to <2CH34 -3> For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father: and in the twelfth year he began {to} purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images. to <2CH34 -7> And when he had broken down the altars and the groves, and had beaten the graven images into powder, and cut down all the idols throughout all the land of Israel, he returned {to} Jerusalem. to <2CH34 -8> Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, when he had purged the land, and the house, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder, {to} repair the house of the LORD his Go d. to <2CH34 -9> And when they came to Hilkiah the high priest, they delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites that kept the doors had gathered of the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, and of all the remnant of Israel, and of all Judah and Benjamin; and they returned {to} Jerusalem. to <2CH34 -9> And when they came {to} Hilkiah the high priest, they delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites that kept the doors had gathered of the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, and of all the remnant of Israel, and o f all Judah and Benjamin; and they returned to Jerusalem. to <2CH34 -10> And they put [it] in the hand of the workmen that had the oversight of the house of the LORD, and they gave it {to} the workmen that wrought in the house of the LORD, to repair and amend the house: to <2CH34 -10> And they put [it] in the hand of the workmen that had the oversight of the house of the LORD, and they gave it to the workmen that wrought in the house of the LORD, {to} repair and amend the house: to <2CH34 -11> Even to the artificers and builders gave they [it], {to} buy hewn stone, and timber for couplings, and to floor the houses which the kings of Judah had destroyed. to <2CH34 -11> Even to the artificers and builders gave they [it], to buy hewn stone, and timber for couplings, and {to} floor the houses which the kings of Judah had destroyed. to <2CH34 -11> Even {to} the artificers and builders gave they [it], to buy hewn stone, and timber for couplings, and to floor the houses which the kings of Judah had destroyed. to <2CH34 -12> And the men did the work faithfully: and the overseers of them [were] Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari; and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, {to} set [it] forward; and [other of] the Levites, all that could skill of instruments of music. to <2CH34 -15> And Hilkiah answered and said {to} Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of the LORD. And Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan. to <2CH34 -15> And Hilkiah answered and said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of the LORD. And Hilkiah delivered the book {to} Shaphan. to <2CH34 -16> And Shaphan carried the book to the king, and brought the king word back again, saying, All that was committed {to} thy servants, they do [it]. to <2CH34 -16> And Shaphan carried the book {to} the king, and brought the king word back again, saying, All that was committed to thy servants, they do [it]. to <2CH34 -17> And they have gathered together the money that was found in the house of the LORD, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers, and {to} the hand of the workmen. to <2CH34 -19> And it came {to} pass, when the king had heard the words of the law, that he rent his clothes. to <2CH34 -21> Go, inquire of the LORD for me, and for them that are left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the book that is found: for great [is] the wrath of the LORD that is poured out upon us, because our fathers have not kept the word o f the LORD, {to} do after all that is written in this book. to <2CH34 -22> And Hilkiah, and [they] that the king [had appointed], went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college:) and they spake to her {to} that [effect]. to <2CH34 -22> And Hilkiah, and [they] that the king [had appointed], went {to} Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college:) and they spake to her to that [effect]. to <2CH34 -22> And Hilkiah, and [they] that the king [had appointed], went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college:) and they spake {to} her to that [effect]. to <2CH34 -23> And she answered them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Tell ye the man that sent you {to} me, to <2CH34 -25> 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 poured out upon this place, and shall not be quenched. to <2CH34 -26> And as for the king of Judah, who sent you {to} inquire of the LORD, so shall ye say unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel [concerning] the words which thou hast heard; to <2CH34 -28> Behold, I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered {to} thy grave in peace, neither shall thine eyes see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of the same. So they brought the king word again. to <2CH34 -28> Behold, I will gather thee {to} thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy grave in peace, neither shall thine eyes see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of the same. So they brought the king word again. to <2CH34 -31> And the king stood in his place, and made a covenant before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes, with all his heart, and with all his soul, {to} perform the words of the cove nant which are written in this book. to <2CH34 -31> And the king stood in his place, and made a covenant before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and {to} keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes, with all his heart, and with all his soul, to perform the words of the cove nant which are written in this book. to <2CH34 -31> And the king stood in his place, and made a covenant before the LORD, {to} walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes, with all his heart, and with all his soul, to perform the words of the cove nant which are written in this book. to <2CH34 -32> And he caused all that were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand [{to} it]. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers. to <2CH34 -32> And he caused all that were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand [to it]. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according {to} the covenant of God, the God of their fathers. to <2CH34 -32> And he caused all that were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin {to} stand [to it]. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers. to <2CH34 -33> And Josiah took away all the abominations out of all the countries that [pertained] to the children of Israel, and made all that were present in Israel to serve, [even] {to} serve the LORD their God. [And] all his days they departed not fro m following the LORD, the God of their fathers. to <2CH34 -33> And Josiah took away all the abominations out of all the countries that [pertained] to the children of Israel, and made all that were present in Israel {to} serve, [even] to serve the LORD their God. [And] all his days they departed not fro m following the LORD, the God of their fathers. to <2CH34 -33> And Josiah took away all the abominations out of all the countries that [pertained] {to} the children of Israel, and made all that were present in Israel to serve, [even] to serve the LORD their God. [And] all his days they departed not fro m following the LORD, the God of their fathers. to <2CH35 -2> And he set the priests in their charges, and encouraged them {to} the service of the house of the LORD, to <2CH35 -4> And prepare [yourselves] by the houses of your fathers, after your courses, according to the writing of David king of Israel, and according {to} the writing of Solomon his son. to <2CH35 -4> And prepare [yourselves] by the houses of your fathers, after your courses, according {to} the writing of David king of Israel, and according to the writing of Solomon his son. to <2CH35 -5> And stand in the holy [place] according {to} the divisions of the families of the fathers of your brethren the people, and [after] the division of the families of the Levites. to <2CH35 -6> So kill the passover, and sanctify yourselves, and prepare your brethren, that [they] may do according {to} the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses. to <2CH35 -7> And Josiah gave to the people, of the flock, lambs and kids, all for the passover offerings, for all that were present, {to} the number of thirty thousand, and three thousand bullocks: these [were] of the king's substance. to <2CH35 -7> And Josiah gave {to} the people, of the flock, lambs and kids, all for the passover offerings, for all that were present, to the number of thirty thousand, and three thousand bullocks: these [were] of the king's substance. to <2CH35 -8> And his princes gave willingly unto the people, to the priests, and {to} the Levites: Hilkiah and Zechariah and Jehiel, rulers of the house of God, gave unto the priests for the passover offerings two thousand and six hundred [small cattle], and three hundred oxen. to <2CH35 -8> And his princes gave willingly unto the people, {to} the priests, and to the Levites: Hilkiah and Zechariah and Jehiel, rulers of the house of God, gave unto the priests for the passover offerings two thousand and six hundred [small cattle], and three hundred oxen. to <2CH35 -10> So the service was prepared, and the priests stood in their place, and the Levites in their courses, according {to} the king's commandment. to <2CH35 -12> And they removed the burnt offerings, that they might give according {to} the divisions of the families of the people, to offer unto the LORD, as [it is] written in the book of Moses. And so [did they] with the oxen. to <2CH35 -12> And they removed the burnt offerings, that they might give according to the divisions of the families of the people, {to} offer unto the LORD, as [it is] written in the book of Moses. And so [did they] with the oxen. to <2CH35 -13> And they roasted the passover with fire according {to} the ordinance: but the [other] holy [offerings] sod they in pots, and in caldrons, and in pans, and divided [them] speedily among all the people. to <2CH35 -15> And the singers the sons of Asaph [were] in their place, according {to} the commandment of David, and Asaph, and Heman, and Jeduthun the king's seer; and the porters [waited] at every gate; they might not depart from their service; for thei r brethren the Levites prepared for them. to <2CH35 -16> So all the service of the LORD was prepared the same day, to keep the passover, and to offer burnt offerings upon the altar of the LORD, according {to} the commandment of king Josiah. to <2CH35 -16> So all the service of the LORD was prepared the same day, {to} keep the passover, and to offer burnt offerings upon the altar of the LORD, according to the commandment of king Josiah. to <2CH35 -16> So all the service of the LORD was prepared the same day, to keep the passover, and {to} offer burnt offerings upon the altar of the LORD, according to the commandment of king Josiah. to <2CH35 -18> And there was no passover like {to} that kept in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet; neither did all the kings of Israel keep such a passover as Josiah kept, and the priests, and the Levites, and all Judah and Israel that were prese nt, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. to <2CH35 -20> After all this, when Josiah had prepared the temple, Necho king of Egypt came up {to} fight against Charchemish by Euphrates: and Josiah went out against him. to <2CH35 -21> But he sent ambassadors {to} him, saying, What have I to do with thee, thou king of Judah? [I come] not against thee this day, but against the house wherewith I have war: for God commanded me to make haste: forbear thee from [meddling with] God, who [is] with me, that he destroy thee not. to <2CH35 -21> But he sent ambassadors to him, saying, What have I {to} do with thee, thou king of Judah? [I come] not against thee this day, but against the house wherewith I have war: for God commanded me to make haste: forbear thee from [meddling with] God, who [is] with me, that he destroy thee not. to <2CH35 -21> But he sent ambassadors to him, saying, What have I to do with thee, thou king of Judah? [I come] not against thee this day, but against the house wherewith I have war: for God commanded me {to} make haste: forbear thee from [meddling with] God, who [is] with me, that he destroy thee not. to <2CH35 -22> Nevertheless Josiah would not turn his face from him, but disguised himself, that he might fight with him, and hearkened not unto the words of Necho from the mouth of God, and came {to} fight in the valley of Megiddo. to <2CH35 -23> And the archers shot at king Josiah; and the king said {to} his servants, Have me away; for I am sore wounded. to <2CH35 -24> His servants therefore took him out of that chariot, and put him in the second chariot that he had; and they brought him {to} Jerusalem, and he died, and was buried in [one of] the sepulchres of his fathers. And all Judah and Jerusalem mour ned for Josiah. to <2CH35 -25> And Jeremiah lamented for Josiah: and all the singing men and the singing women spake of Josiah in their lamentations {to} this day, and made them an ordinance in Israel: and, behold, they [are] written in the lamentations. to <2CH35 -26> Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and his goodness, according {to} [that which was] written in the law of the LORD, to <2CH36 -2> Jehoahaz [was] twenty and three years old when he began {to} reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. to <2CH36 -4> And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and turned his name to Jehoiakim. And Necho took Jehoahaz his brother, and carried him {to} Egypt. to <2CH36 -4> And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and turned his name {to} Jehoiakim. And Necho took Jehoahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt. to <2CH36 -5> Jehoiakim [was] twenty and five years old when he began {to} reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did [that which was] evil in the sight of the LORD his God. to <2CH36 -6> Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and bound him in fetters, to carry him {to} Babylon. to <2CH36 -6> Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and bound him in fetters, {to} carry him to Babylon. to <2CH36 -7> Nebuchadnezzar also carried of the vessels of the house of the LORD {to} Babylon, and put them in his temple at Babylon. to <2CH36 -9> Jehoiachin [was] eight years old when he began {to} reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem: and he did [that which was] evil in the sight of the LORD. to <2CH36 -10> And when the year was expired, king Nebuchadnezzar sent, and brought him {to} Babylon, with the goodly vessels of the house of the LORD, and made Zedekiah his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem. to <2CH36 -11> Zedekiah [was] one and twenty years old when he began {to} reign, and reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. to <2CH36 -15> And the LORD God of their fathers sent {to} them by his messengers, rising up betimes, and sending; because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling place: to <2CH36 -18> And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king, and of his princes; all [these] he brought {to} Babylon. to <2CH36 -20> And them that had escaped from the sword carried he away to Babylon; where they were servants {to} him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom of Persia: to <2CH36 -20> And them that had escaped from the sword carried he away {to} Babylon; where they were servants to him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom of Persia: to <2CH36 -21> To fulfil the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed her sabbaths: [for] as long as she lay desolate she kept sabbath, {to} fulfil threescore and ten years. to <2CH36 -21> {To} fulfil the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed her sabbaths: [for] as long as she lay desolate she kept sabbath, to fulfil threescore and ten years. to <2CH36 -23> Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath the LORD God of heaven given me; and he hath charged me {to} build him an house in Jerusalem, which [is] in Judah. Who [is there] among you of all his people? The LORD his God [be] with him, and let him go up. to Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, The LORD God of heaven hath given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he hath charged me {to} build him an house at Jerusalem, which [is] in Judah. to Who [is there] among you of all his people? his God be with him, and let him go up {to} Jerusalem, which [is] in Judah, and build the house of the LORD God of Israel, (he [is] the God,) which [is] in Jerusalem. to Then rose up the chief of the fathers of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, with all [them] whose spirit God had raised, to go up {to} build the house of the LORD which [is] in Jerusalem. to Then rose up the chief of the fathers of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, with all [them] whose spirit God had raised, {to} go up to build the house of the LORD which [is] in Jerusalem. to And [some] of the chief of the fathers, when they came {to} the house of the LORD which [is] at Jerusalem, offered freely for the house of God to set it up in his place: to And [some] of the chief of the fathers, when they came to the house of the LORD which [is] at Jerusalem, offered freely for the house of God {to} set it up in his place: to And when the seventh month was come, and the children of Israel [were] in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man {to} Jerusalem. to Then stood up Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and his brethren, and builded the altar of the God of Israel, {to} offer burnt offerings thereon, as [it is] written in the law of Mos es the man of God. to They kept also the feast of tabernacles, as [it is] written, and [offered] the daily burnt offerings by number, according {to} the custom, as the duty of every day required; to From the first day of the seventh month began they {to} offer burnt offerings unto the LORD. But the foundation of the temple of the LORD was not [yet] laid. to They gave money also unto the masons, and to the carpenters; and meat, and drink, and oil, unto them of Zidon, and {to} them of Tyre, to bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea of Joppa, according to the grant that they had of Cyrus king of Persia. to They gave money also unto the masons, and to the carpenters; and meat, and drink, and oil, unto them of Zidon, and to them of Tyre, to bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea of Joppa, according {to} the grant that they had of Cyrus king of Persia. to They gave money also unto the masons, and to the carpenters; and meat, and drink, and oil, unto them of Zidon, and to them of Tyre, to bring cedar trees from Lebanon {to} the sea of Joppa, according to the grant that they had of Cyrus king of Persia. to They gave money also unto the masons, and {to} the carpenters; and meat, and drink, and oil, unto them of Zidon, and to them of Tyre, to bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea of Joppa, according to the grant that they had of Cyrus king of Persia. to They gave money also unto the masons, and to the carpenters; and meat, and drink, and oil, unto them of Zidon, and to them of Tyre, {to} bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea of Joppa, according to the grant that they had of Cyrus king of Persia. to Now in the second year of their coming unto the house of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all they that were come out of the captivity unto Jerusalem; and appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, {to} set forward the work of the house of the LORD. to Then stood Jeshua [with] his sons and his brethren, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, together, {to} set forward the workmen in the house of God: the sons of Henadad, [with] their sons and their brethren the Levites. to And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of the LORD, they set the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, {to} praise the LORD, after the ordinance of David king of Israel. to Then they came to Zerubbabel, and {to} the chief of the fathers, and said unto them, Let us build with you: for we seek your God, as ye [do]; and we do sacrifice unto him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assur, which brought us up hither. to Then they came {to} Zerubbabel, and to the chief of the fathers, and said unto them, Let us build with you: for we seek your God, as ye [do]; and we do sacrifice unto him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assur, which brought us up hither. to But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua, and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel, said unto them, Ye have nothing to do with us {to} build an house unto our God; but we ourselves together will build unto the LORD God of Israel, as king Cyrus th e king of Persia hath commanded us. to But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua, and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel, said unto them, Ye have nothing {to} do with us to build an house unto our God; but we ourselves together will build unto the LORD God of Israel, as king Cyrus th e king of Persia hath commanded us. to And hired counsellors against them, {to} frustrate their purpose, all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of Persia. to Rehum the chancellor and Shimshai the scribe wrote a letter against Jerusalem {to} Artaxerxes the king in this sort: to Be it known unto the king, that the Jews which came up from thee {to} us are come unto Jerusalem, building the rebellious and the bad city, and have set up the walls [thereof], and joined the foundations. to Now because we have maintenance from [the king's] palace, and it was not meet for us {to} see the king's dishonour, therefore have we sent and certified the king; to Then] sent the king an answer unto Rehum the chancellor, and [to] Shimshai the scribe, and [{to}] the rest of their companions that dwell in Samaria, and [unto] the rest beyond the river, Peace, and at such a time. to Then] sent the king an answer unto Rehum the chancellor, and [{to}] Shimshai the scribe, and [to] the rest of their companions that dwell in Samaria, and [unto] the rest beyond the river, Peace, and at such a time. to Give ye now commandment to cause these men {to} cease, and that this city be not builded, until [another] commandment shall be given from me. to Give ye now commandment {to} cause these men to cease, and that this city be not builded, until [another] commandment shall be given from me. to Take heed now that ye fail not to do this: why should damage grow {to} the hurt of the kings? to Take heed now that ye fail not {to} do this: why should damage grow to the hurt of the kings? to Now when the copy of king Artaxerxes' letter [was] read before Rehum, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they went up in haste {to} Jerusalem unto the Jews, and made them to cease by force and power. to Now when the copy of king Artaxerxes' letter [was] read before Rehum, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they went up in haste to Jerusalem unto the Jews, and made them {to} cease by force and power. to Then rose up Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and began {to} build the house of God which [is] at Jerusalem: and with them [were] the prophets of God helping them. to At the same time came to them Tatnai, governor on this side the river, and Shetharboznai, and their companions, and said thus unto them, Who hath commanded you {to} build this house, and to make up this wall? to At the same time came to them Tatnai, governor on this side the river, and Shetharboznai, and their companions, and said thus unto them, Who hath commanded you to build this house, and {to} make up this wall? to At the same time came {to} them Tatnai, governor on this side the river, and Shetharboznai, and their companions, and said thus unto them, Who hath commanded you to build this house, and to make up this wall? to But the eye of their God was upon the elders of the Jews, that they could not cause them to cease, till the matter came {to} Darius: and then they returned answer by letter concerning this [matter]. to But the eye of their God was upon the elders of the Jews, that they could not cause them {to} cease, till the matter came to Darius: and then they returned answer by letter concerning this [matter]. to Be it known unto the king, that we went into the province of Judea, {to} the house of the great God, which is builded with great stones, and timber is laid in the walls, and this work goeth fast on, and prospereth in their hands. to Then asked we those elders, [and] said unto them thus, Who commanded you {to} build this house, and to make up these walls? to Then asked we those elders, [and] said unto them thus, Who commanded you to build this house, and {to} make up these walls? to We asked their names also, {to} certify thee, that we might write the names of the men that [were] the chief of them. to But in the first year of Cyrus the king of Babylon [the same] king Cyrus made a decree {to} build this house of God. to Now therefore, if [it seem] good to the king, let there be search made in the king's treasure house, which [is] there at Babylon, whether it be [so], that a decree was made of Cyrus the king to build this house of God at Jerusalem, and let t he king send his pleasure {to} us concerning this matter. to Now therefore, if [it seem] good {to} the king, let there be search made in the king's treasure house, which [is] there at Babylon, whether it be [so], that a decree was made of Cyrus the king to build this house of God at Jerusalem, and let the king send his pleasure to us concerning this matter. to Now therefore, if [it seem] good to the king, let there be search made in the king's treasure house, which [is] there at Babylon, whether it be [so], that a decree was made of Cyrus the king {to} build this house of God at Jerusalem, and let the king send his pleasure to us concerning this matter. to And also let the golden and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took forth out of the temple which [is] at Jerusalem, and brought unto Babylon, be restored, and brought again unto the temple which [is] at Jerusalem, [ever y one] {to} his place, and place [them] in the house of God. to Moreover I make a decree what ye shall do {to} the elders of these Jews for the building of this house of God: that of the king's goods, [even] of the tribute beyond the river, forthwith expenses be given unto these men, that they be not hind ered. to And that which they have need of, both young bullocks, and rams, and lambs, for the burnt offerings of the God of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according {to} the appointment of the priests which [are] at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail: to And the God that hath caused his name to dwell there destroy all kings and people, that shall put {to} their hand to alter [and] to destroy this house of God which [is] at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree; let it be done with speed. to And the God that hath caused his name to dwell there destroy all kings and people, that shall put to their hand to alter [and] {to} destroy this house of God which [is] at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree; let it be done with speed. to And the God that hath caused his name to dwell there destroy all kings and people, that shall put to their hand {to} alter [and] to destroy this house of God which [is] at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree; let it be done with speed. to And the God that hath caused his name {to} dwell there destroy all kings and people, that shall put to their hand to alter [and] to destroy this house of God which [is] at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree; let it be done with speed. to Then Tatnai, governor on this side the river, Shetharboznai, and their companions, according {to} that which Darius the king had sent, so they did speedily. to And the elders of the Jews builded, and they prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they builded, and finished [it], according {to} the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to th e commandment of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia. to And the elders of the Jews builded, and they prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they builded, and finished [it], according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according {to} th e commandment of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia. to And offered at the dedication of this house of God an hundred bullocks, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and for a sin offering for all Israel, twelve he goats, according {to} the number of the tribes of Israel. to And the children of Israel, which were come again out of captivity, and all such as had separated themselves unto them from the filthiness of the heathen of the land, {to} seek the LORD God of Israel, did eat, to And kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy: for the LORD had made them joyful, and turned the heart of the king of Assyria unto them, {to} strengthen their hands in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel. to This Ezra went up from Babylon; and he [was] a ready scribe in the law of Moses, which the LORD God of Israel had given: and the king granted him all his request, according {to} the hand of the LORD his God upon him. to And he came {to} Jerusalem in the fifth month, which [was] in the seventh year of the king. to For upon the first [day] of the first month began he to go up from Babylon, and on the first [day] of the fifth month came he to Jerusalem, according {to} the good hand of his God upon him. to For upon the first [day] of the first month began he to go up from Babylon, and on the first [day] of the fifth month came he {to} Jerusalem, according to the good hand of his God upon him. to For upon the first [day] of the first month began he {to} go up from Babylon, and on the first [day] of the fifth month came he to Jerusalem, according to the good hand of his God upon him. to For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do [it], and {to} teach in Israel statutes and judgments. to For Ezra had prepared his heart {to} seek the law of the LORD, and to do [it], and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments. to For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and {to} do [it], and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments. to Now this [is] the copy of the letter that the king Artaxerxes gave unto Ezra the priest, the scribe, [even] a scribe of the words of the commandments of the LORD, and of his statutes {to} Israel. to I make a decree, that all they of the people of Israel, and [of] his priests and Levites, in my realm, which are minded of their own freewill to go up {to} Jerusalem, go with thee. to I make a decree, that all they of the people of Israel, and [of] his priests and Levites, in my realm, which are minded of their own freewill {to} go up to Jerusalem, go with thee. to Forasmuch as thou art sent of the king, and of his seven counsellors, {to} inquire concerning Judah and Jerusalem, according to the law of thy God which [is] in thine hand; to Forasmuch as thou art sent of the king, and of his seven counsellors, to inquire concerning Judah and Jerusalem, according {to} the law of thy God which [is] in thine hand; to And {to} carry the silver and gold, which the king and his counsellors have freely offered unto the God of Israel, whose habitation [is] in Jerusalem, to And whatsoever shall seem good to thee, and {to} thy brethren, to do with the rest of the silver and the gold, that do after the will of your God. to And whatsoever shall seem good to thee, and to thy brethren, {to} do with the rest of the silver and the gold, that do after the will of your God. to And whatsoever shall seem good {to} thee, and to thy brethren, to do with the rest of the silver and the gold, that do after the will of your God. to And whatsoever more shall be needful for the house of thy God, which thou shalt have occasion {to} bestow, bestow [it] out of the king's treasure house. to And I, [even] I Artaxerxes the king, do make a decree {to} all the treasurers which [are] beyond the river, that whatsoever Ezra the priest, the scribe of the law of the God of heaven, shall require of you, it be done speedily, to Unto an hundred talents of silver, and {to} an hundred measures of wheat, and to an hundred baths of wine, and to an hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribing [how much]. to Unto an hundred talents of silver, and to an hundred measures of wheat, and {to} an hundred baths of wine, and to an hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribing [how much]. to Unto an hundred talents of silver, and to an hundred measures of wheat, and to an hundred baths of wine, and {to} an hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribing [how much]. to Also we certify you, that touching any of the priests and Levites, singers, porters, Nethinims, or ministers of this house of God, it shall not be lawful {to} impose toll, tribute, or custom, upon them. to And whosoever will not do the law of thy God, and the law of the king, let judgment be executed speedily upon him, whether [it be] unto death, or to banishment, or {to} confiscation of goods, or to imprisonment. to And whosoever will not do the law of thy God, and the law of the king, let judgment be executed speedily upon him, whether [it be] unto death, or {to} banishment, or to confiscation of goods, or to imprisonment. to And whosoever will not do the law of thy God, and the law of the king, let judgment be executed speedily upon him, whether [it be] unto death, or to banishment, or to confiscation of goods, or {to} imprisonment. to Blessed [be] the LORD God of our fathers, which hath put [such a thing] as this in the king's heart, {to} beautify the house of the LORD which [is] in Jerusalem: to And hath extended mercy unto me before the king, and his counsellors, and before all the king's mighty princes. And I was strengthened as the hand of the LORD my God [was] upon me, and I gathered together out of Israel chief men {to} go up w ith me. to And I gathered them together {to} the river that runneth to Ahava; and there abode we in tents three days: and I viewed the people, and the priests, and found there none of the sons of Levi. to And I gathered them together to the river that runneth {to} Ahava; and there abode we in tents three days: and I viewed the people, and the priests, and found there none of the sons of Levi. to And I sent them with commandment unto Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia, and I told them what they should say unto Iddo, [and] {to} his brethren the Nethinims, at the place Casiphia, that they should bring unto us ministers for the house of our God. to Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river of Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, {to} seek of him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance. to For I was ashamed {to} require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way: because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God [is] upon all them for good that seek him; but his power and his wrath [is] against all them that forsake him. to For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen {to} help us against the enemy in the way: because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God [is] upon all them for good that seek him; but his power and his wrath [is] against all them that forsake him. to So took the priests and the Levites the weight of the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, {to} bring [them] to Jerusalem unto the house of our God. to So took the priests and the Levites the weight of the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, to bring [them] {to} Jerusalem unto the house of our God. to Then we departed from the river of Ahava on the twelfth [day] of the first month, {to} go unto Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy, and of such as lay in wait by the way. to And we came {to} Jerusalem, and abode there three days. to And they delivered the king's commissions unto the king's lieutenants, and {to} the governors on this side the river: and they furthered the people, and the house of God. to Now when these things were done, the princes came to me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the people of the lands, [doing] according {to} their abominations, [even] of the Cana anites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites. to Now when these things were done, the princes came {to} me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the people of the lands, [doing] according to their abominations, [even] of the Cana anites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites. to And said, O my God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face {to} thee, my God: for our iniquities are increased over [our] head, and our trespass is grown up unto the heavens. to And said, O my God, I am ashamed and blush {to} lift up my face to thee, my God: for our iniquities are increased over [our] head, and our trespass is grown up unto the heavens. to Since the days of our fathers [have] we [been] in a great trespass unto this day; and for our iniquities have we, our kings, [and] our priests, been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, and {to} a spo il, and to confusion of face, as [it is] this day. to Since the days of our fathers [have] we [been] in a great trespass unto this day; and for our iniquities have we, our kings, [and] our priests, been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, {to} the sword, to captivity, and to a spo il, and to confusion of face, as [it is] this day. to Since the days of our fathers [have] we [been] in a great trespass unto this day; and for our iniquities have we, our kings, [and] our priests, been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, and to a spoil , and {to} confusion of face, as [it is] this day. to Since the days of our fathers [have] we [been] in a great trespass unto this day; and for our iniquities have we, our kings, [and] our priests, been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, {to} captivity, and to a spo il, and to confusion of face, as [it is] this day. to And now for a little space grace hath been [showed] from the LORD our God, to leave us a remnant {to} escape, and to give us a nail in his holy place, that our God may lighten our eyes, and give us a little reviving in our bondage. to And now for a little space grace hath been [showed] from the LORD our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and {to} give us a nail in his holy place, that our God may lighten our eyes, and give us a little reviving in our bondage. to And now for a little space grace hath been [showed] from the LORD our God, {to} leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a nail in his holy place, that our God may lighten our eyes, and give us a little reviving in our bondage. to For we [were] bondmen; yet our God hath not forsaken us in our bondage, but hath extended mercy unto us in the sight of the kings of Persia, {to} give us a reviving, to set up the house of our God, and to repair the desolations thereof, and t o give us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem. to For we [were] bondmen; yet our God hath not forsaken us in our bondage, but hath extended mercy unto us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to give us a reviving, to set up the house of our God, and to repair the desolations thereof, and {to } give us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem. to For we [were] bondmen; yet our God hath not forsaken us in our bondage, but hath extended mercy unto us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to give us a reviving, {to} set up the house of our God, and to repair the desolations thereof, and t o give us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem. to For we [were] bondmen;

and let it be done according to the la w. to Now therefore let us make a covenant with our God to put away all the wives, and such as are born of them, according {to} the counsel of my lord, and of those that tremble at the commandment of our God; and let it be done according to the la w. to Now therefore let us make a covenant with our God to put away all the wives, and such as are born of them, according to the counsel of my lord, and of those that tremble at the commandment of our God; and let it be done according {to} the la w. to Then arose Ezra, and made the chief priests, the Levites, and all Israel, {to} swear that they should do according to this word. And they sware. to Then arose Ezra, and made the chief priests, the Levites, and all Israel, to swear that they should do according {to} this word. And they sware. to And that whosoever would not come within three days, according {to} the counsel of the princes and the elders, all his substance should be forfeited, and himself separated from the congregation of those that had been carried away. to And Ezra the priest stood up, and said unto them, Ye have transgressed, and have taken strange wives, {to} increase the trespass of Israel. to But the people [are] many, and [it is] a time of much rain, and we are not able {to} stand without, neither [is this] a work of one day or two: for we are many that have transgressed in this thing. to And the children of the captivity did so. And Ezra the priest, [with] certain chief of the fathers, after the house of their fathers, and all of them by [their] names, were separated, and sat down in the first day of the tenth month {to} ex amine the matter. to The words of Nehemiah the son of Hachaliah. And it came {to} pass in the month Chisleu, in the twentieth year, as I was in Shushan the palace, to And it came {to} pass, when I heard these words, that I sat down and wept, and mourned [certain] days, and fasted, and prayed before the God of heaven, to But [if] ye turn unto me, and keep my commandments, and do them; though there were of you cast out unto the uttermost part of the heaven, [yet] will I gather them from thence, and will bring them unto the place that I have chosen {to} set my name there. to O Lord, I beseech thee, let now thine ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant, and {to} the prayer of thy servants, who desire to fear thy name: and prosper, I pray thee, thy servant this day, and grant him mercy in the sight of this m an. For I was the king's cupbearer. to O Lord, I beseech thee, let now thine ear be attentive {to} the prayer of thy servant, and to the prayer of thy servants, who desire to fear thy name: and prosper, I pray thee, thy servant this day, and grant him mercy in the sight of this m an. For I was the king's cupbearer. to O Lord, I beseech thee, let now thine ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant, and to the prayer of thy servants, who desire {to} fear thy name: and prosper, I pray thee, thy servant this day, and grant him mercy in the sight of this m an. For I was the king's cupbearer. to And it came {to} pass in the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king, [that] wine [was] before him: and I took up the wine, and gave [it] unto the king. Now I had not been [beforetime] sad in his presence. to Then the king said unto me, For what dost thou make request? So I prayed {to} the God of heaven. to And the king said unto me, (the queen also sitting by him,) For how long shall thy journey be? and when wilt thou return? So it pleased the king {to} send me; and I set him a time. to Moreover I said unto the king, If it please the king, let letters be given me {to} the governors beyond the river, that they may convey me over till I come into Judah; to And a letter unto Asaph the keeper of the king's forest, that he may give me timber {to} make beams for the gates of the palace which [appertained] to the house, and for the wall of the city, and for the house that I shall enter into. And the king granted me, according to the good hand of my God upon me. to And a letter unto Asaph the keeper of the king's forest, that he may give me timber to make beams for the gates of the palace which [appertained] to the house, and for the wall of the city, and for the house that I shall enter into. And the k ing granted me, according {to} the good hand of my God upon me. to And a letter unto Asaph the keeper of the king's forest, that he may give me timber to make beams for the gates of the palace which [appertained] {to} the house, and for the wall of the city, and for the house that I shall enter into. And the king granted me, according to the good hand of my God upon me. to Then I came {to} the governors beyond the river, and gave them the king's letters. Now the king had sent captains of the army and horsemen with me. to When Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, heard [of it], it grieved them exceedingly that there was come a man {to} seek the welfare of the children of Israel. to So I came {to} Jerusalem, and was there three days. to And I arose in the night, I and some few men with me; neither told I [any] man what my God had put in my heart {to} do at Jerusalem: neither [was there any] beast with me, save the beast that I rode upon. to And I went out by night by the gate of the valley, even before the dragon well, and {to} the dung port, and viewed the walls of Jerusalem, which were broken down, and the gates thereof were consumed with fire. to Then I went on to the gate of the fountain, and {to} the king's pool: but [there was] no place for the beast [that was] under me to pass. to Then I went on to the gate of the fountain, and to the king's pool: but [there was] no place for the beast [that was] under me {to} pass. to Then I went on {to} the gate of the fountain, and to the king's pool: but [there was] no place for the beast [that was] under me to pass. to And the rulers knew not whither I went, or what I did; neither had I as yet told [it] to the Jews, nor to the priests, nor to the nobles, nor {to} the rulers, nor to the rest that did the work. to And the rulers knew not whither I went, or what I did; neither had I as yet told [it] {to} the Jews, nor to the priests, nor to the nobles, nor to the rulers, nor to the rest that did the work. to And the rulers knew not whither I went, or what I did; neither had I as yet told [it] to the Jews, nor {to} the priests, nor to the nobles, nor to the rulers, nor to the rest that did the work. to And the rulers knew not whither I went, or what I did; neither had I as yet told [it] to the Jews, nor to the priests, nor {to} the nobles, nor to the rulers, nor to the rest that did the work. to And the rulers knew not whither I went, or what I did; neither had I as yet told [it] to the Jews, nor to the priests, nor to the nobles, nor to the rulers, nor {to} the rest that did the work. to But when Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, and Geshem the Arabian, heard [it], they laughed us {to} scorn, and despised us, and said, What [is] this thing that ye do? will ye rebel against the king? to And next unto him builded the men of Jericho. And next {to} them builded Zaccur the son of Imri. to And next unto them the Tekoites repaired; but their nobles put not their necks {to} the work of their Lord. to After him repaired Nehemiah the son of Azbuk, the ruler of the half part of Bethzur, unto [the place] over against the sepulchres of David, and {to} the pool that was made, and unto the house of the mighty. to And next to him repaired Ezer the son of Jeshua, the ruler of Mizpah, another piece over against the going up {to} the armoury at the turning [of the wall]. to And next {to} him repaired Ezer the son of Jeshua, the ruler of Mizpah, another piece over against the going up to the armoury at the turning [of the wall]. to After him repaired Meremoth the son of Urijah the son of Koz another piece, from the door of the house of Eliashib even {to} the end of the house of Eliashib. to After him repaired Malchiah the goldsmith's son unto the place of the Nethinims, and of the merchants, over against the gate Miphkad, and {to} the going up of the corner. to But it came {to} pass, that when Sanballat heard that we builded the wall, he was wroth, and took great indignation, and mocked the Jews. to And cover not their iniquity, and let not their sin be blotted out from before thee: for they have provoked [thee] {to} anger before the builders. to So built we the wall; and all the wall was joined together unto the half thereof: for the people had a mind {to} work. to But it came to pass, [that] when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites, heard that the walls of Jerusalem were made up, [and] that the breaches began {to} be stopped, then they were very wroth, to But it came {to} pass, [that] when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites, heard that the walls of Jerusalem were made up, [and] that the breaches began to be stopped, then they were very wroth, to And conspired all of them together to come [and] to fight against Jerusalem, and {to} hinder it. to And conspired all of them together {to} come [and] to fight against Jerusalem, and to hinder it. to And conspired all of them together to come [and] {to} fight against Jerusalem, and to hinder it. to And Judah said, The strength of the bearers of burdens is decayed, and [there is] much rubbish; so that we are not able {to} build the wall. to And our adversaries said, They shall not know, neither see, till we come in the midst among them, and slay them, and cause the work {to} cease. to And it came {to} pass, that when the Jews which dwelt by them came, they said unto us ten times, From all places whence ye shall return unto us [they will be upon you]. to And I looked, and rose up, and said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and {to} the rest of the people, Be not ye afraid of them: remember the Lord, [which is] great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses. to And I looked, and rose up, and said unto the nobles, and {to} the rulers, and to the rest of the people, Be not ye afraid of them: remember the Lord, [which is] great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses. to And it came to pass, when our enemies heard that it was known unto us, and God had brought their counsel {to} nought, that we returned all of us to the wall, every one unto his work. to And it came {to} pass, when our enemies heard that it was known unto us, and God had brought their counsel to nought, that we returned all of us to the wall, every one unto his work. to And it came to pass, when our enemies heard that it was known unto us, and God had brought their counsel to nought, that we returned all of us {to} the wall, every one unto his work. to And it came {to} pass from that time forth, [that] the half of my servants wrought in the work, and the other half of them held both the spears, the shields, and the bows, and the habergeons; and the rulers [were] behind all the house of Jud ah. to And I said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and {to} the rest of the people, The work [is] great and large, and we are separated upon the wall, one far from another. to And I said unto the nobles, and {to} the rulers, and to the rest of the people, The work [is] great and large, and we are separated upon the wall, one far from another. to Likewise at the same time said I unto the people, Let every one with his servant lodge within Jerusalem, that in the night they may be a guard {to} us, and labour on the day. to Yet now our flesh [is] as the flesh of our brethren, our children as their children: and, lo, we bring into bondage our sons and our daughters {to} be servants, and [some] of our daughters are brought unto bondage [already]: neither [is it] i n our power [to redeem them]; for other men have our lands and vineyards. to Yet now our flesh [is] as the flesh of our brethren, our children as their children: and, lo, we bring into bondage our sons and our daughters to be servants, and [some] of our daughters are brought unto bondage [already]: neither [is it] in our power [{to} redeem them]; for other men have our lands and vineyards. to And I said unto them, We after our ability have redeemed our brethren the Jews, which were sold unto the heathen; and will ye even sell your brethren? or shall they be sold unto us? Then held they their peace, and found nothing [{to} answer]. to Also I said, It [is] not good that ye do: ought ye not {to} walk in the fear of our God because of the reproach of the heathen our enemies? to Restore, I pray you, {to} them, even this day, their lands, their vineyards, their oliveyards, and their houses, also the hundredth [part] of the money, and of the corn, the wine, and the oil, that ye exact of them. to Then said they, We will restore [them], and will require nothing of them; so will we do as thou sayest. Then I called the priests, and took an oath of them, that they should do according {to} this promise. to Also I shook my lap, and said, So God shake out every man from his house, and from his labour, that performeth not this promise, even thus be he shaken out, and emptied. And all the congregation said, Amen, and praised the LORD. And the peop le did according {to} this promise. to Moreover from the time that I was appointed {to} be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even unto the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes the king, [that is], twelve years, I and my brethren have not eaten the bread of the governor. to Think upon me, my God, for good, [according] {to} all that I have done for this people. to Now it came {to} pass, when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I had builded the wall, and [that] there was no breach left therein; (though at that time I had not set up the doors upon the g ates;) to That Sanballat and Geshem sent unto me, saying, Come, let us meet together in [some one of] the villages in the plain of Ono. But they thought {to} do me mischief. to And I sent messengers unto them, saying, I [am] doing a great work, so that I cannot come down: why should the work cease, whilst I leave it, and come down {to} you? to Wherein [was] written, It is reported among the heathen, and Gashmu saith [it, that] thou and the Jews think {to} rebel: for which cause thou buildest the wall, that thou mayest be their king, according to these words. to Wherein [was] written, It is reported among the heathen, and Gashmu saith [it, that] thou and the Jews think to rebel: for which cause thou buildest the wall, that thou mayest be their king, according {to} these words. to And thou hast also appointed prophets to preach of thee at Jerusalem, saying, [There is] a king in Judah: and now shall it be reported to the king according {to} these words. Come now therefore, and let us take counsel together. to And thou hast also appointed prophets to preach of thee at Jerusalem, saying, [There is] a king in Judah: and now shall it be reported {to} the king according to these words. Come now therefore, and let us take counsel together. to And thou hast also appointed prophets {to} preach of thee at Jerusalem, saying, [There is] a king in Judah: and now shall it be reported to the king according to these words. Come now therefore, and let us take counsel together. to Afterward I came unto the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah the son of Mehetabeel, who [was] shut up; and he said, Let us meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and let us shut the doors of the temple: for they will come to slay thee; yea, in the night will they come {to} slay thee. to Afterward I came unto the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah the son of Mehetabeel, who [was] shut up; and he said, Let us meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and let us shut the doors of the temple: for they will come {t o} slay thee; yea, in the night will they come to slay thee. to And I said, Should such a man as I flee? and who [is there], that, [being] as I [am], would go into the temple {to} save his life? I will not go in. to My God, think thou upon Tobiah and Sanballat according {to} these their works, and on the prophetess Noadiah, and the rest of the prophets, that would have put me in fear. to And it came {to} pass, that when all our enemies heard [thereof], and all the heathen that [were] about us saw [these things], they were much cast down in their own eyes: for they perceived that this work was wrought of our God. to Also they reported his good deeds before me, and uttered my words to him. [And] Tobiah sent letters {to} put me in fear. to Also they reported his good deeds before me, and uttered my words {to} him. [And] Tobiah sent letters to put me in fear. to Now it came {to} pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed, to And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun be hot; and while they stand by, let them shut the doors, and bar [them]: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one [{to} be] over against his house. to And my God put into mine heart {to} gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I found a register of the genealogy of them which came up at the first, and found written therein, to These [are] the children of the province, that went up out of the captivity, of those that had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and came again to Jerusalem and {to} Judah, every one unto his city; to These [are] the children of the province, that went up out of the captivity, of those that had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and came again {to} Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his city; to And of the priests: the children of Habaiah, the children of Koz, the children of Barzillai, which took [one] of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite {to} wife, and was called after their name. to And some of the chief of the fathers gave unto the work. The Tirshatha gave {to} the treasure a thousand drams of gold, fifty basins, five hundred and thirty priests' garments. to And [some] of the chief of the fathers gave {to} the treasure of the work twenty thousand drams of gold, and two thousand and two hundred pound of silver. to And all the people gathered themselves together as one man into the street that [was] before the water gate; and they spake unto Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded {to} Israel. to And all the people gathered themselves together as one man into the street that [was] before the water gate; and they spake unto Ezra the scribe {to} bring the book of the law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded to Israel. to And Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God. And all the people answered, Amen, Amen, with lifting up their hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped the LORD with [their] faces {to} the ground. to Also Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, caused the people {to} understand the law: and the people [stood] in their place. to So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused [them] {to} understand the reading. to And all the people went their way to eat, and {to} drink, and to send portions, and to make great mirth, because they had understood the words that were declared unto them. to And all the people went their way to eat, and to drink, and to send portions, and {to} make great mirth, because they had understood the words that were declared unto them. to And all the people went their way {to} eat, and to drink, and to send portions, and to make great mirth, because they had understood the words that were declared unto them. to And all the people went their way to eat, and to drink, and {to} send portions, and to make great mirth, because they had understood the words that were declared unto them. to And on the second day were gathered together the chief of the fathers of all the people, the priests, and the Levites, unto Ezra the scribe, even {to} understand the words of the law. to And that they should publish and proclaim in all their cities, and in Jerusalem, saying, Go forth unto the mount, and fetch olive branches, and pine branches, and myrtle branches, and palm branches, and branches of thick trees, {to} make boo ths, as [it is] written. to And foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest a covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, {to} give [it, I say], to his seed, and ha st performed thy words; for thou [art] righteous: to And foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest a covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, to give [it, I say], {to} his seed, and ha st performed thy words; for thou [art] righteous: to And foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest a covenant with him {to} give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, to give [it, I say], to his seed, and ha st performed thy words; for thou [art] righteous: to Moreover thou leddest them in the day by a cloudy pillar; and in the night by a pillar of fire, {to} give them light in the way wherein they should go. to And gavest them bread from heaven for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and promisedst them that they should go in to possess the land which thou hadst sworn {to} give them. to And gavest them bread from heaven for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and promisedst them that they should go in {to} possess the land which thou hadst sworn to give them. to But they and our fathers dealt proudly, and hardened their necks, and hearkened not {to} thy commandments, to And refused to obey, neither were mindful of thy wonders that thou didst among them; but hardened their necks, and in their rebellion appointed a captain to return to their bondage: but thou [art] a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful , slow {to} anger, and of great kindness, and forsookest them not. to And refused to obey, neither were mindful of thy wonders that thou didst among them;

but hardened their necks, and in their rebellion appointed a captain to return {to} their bondage: but thou [art] a God ready to pardon, gracious and mercif ul, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and forsookest them not. to Yet thou in thy manifold mercies forsookest them not in the wilderness: the pillar of the cloud departed not from them by day, to lead them in the way; neither the pillar of fire by night, {to} show them light, and the way wherein they shoul d go. to Yet thou in thy manifold mercies forsookest them not in the wilderness: the pillar of the cloud departed not from them by day, {to} lead them in the way; neither the pillar of fire by night, to show them light, and the way wherein they shoul d go. to Thou gavest also thy good spirit {to} instruct them, and withheldest not thy manna from their mouth, and gavest them water for their thirst. to Their children also multipliedst thou as the stars of heaven, and broughtest them into the land, concerning which thou hadst promised to their fathers, that they should go in {to} possess [it]. to Their children also multipliedst thou as the stars of heaven, and broughtest them into the land, concerning which thou hadst promised {to} their fathers, that they should go in to possess [it]. to Nevertheless they were disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy law behind their backs, and slew thy prophets which testified against them {to} turn them to thee, and they wrought great provocations. to Nevertheless they were disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy law behind their backs, and slew thy prophets which testified against them to turn them {to} thee, and they wrought great provocations. to Therefore thou deliveredst them into the hand of their enemies, who vexed them: and in the time of their trouble, when they cried unto thee, thou heardest [them] from heaven; and according {to} thy manifold mercies thou gavest them saviours, who saved them out of the hand of their enemies. to But after they had rest, they did evil again before thee: therefore leftest thou them in the hand of their enemies, so that they had the dominion over them: yet when they returned, and cried unto thee, thou heardest [them] from heaven; and m any times didst thou deliver them according {to} thy mercies; to Behold, we [are] servants this day, and [for] the land that thou gavest unto our fathers {to} eat the fruit thereof and the good thereof, behold, we [are] servants in it: to They clave to their brethren, their nobles, and entered into a curse, and into an oath, {to} walk in God's law, which was given by Moses the servant of God, and to observe and do all the commandments of the LORD our Lord, and his judgments and his statutes;

to And [if] the people of the land bring ware or any victuals on the sabbath day {to} sell, [that] we would not buy it of them on the sabbath, or on the holy day: and [that] we would leave the seventh year, and the exaction of every debt. to Also we made ordinances for us, {to} charge ourselves yearly with the third part of a shekel for the service of the house of our God; to For the showbread, and for the continual meat offering, and for the continual burnt offering, of the sabbaths, of the new moons, for the set feasts, and for the holy [things], and for the sin offerings {to} make an atonement for Israel, and [for] all the work of the house of our God. to And we cast the lots among the priests, the Levites, and the people, for the wood offering, {to} bring [it] into the house of our God, after the houses of our fathers, at times appointed year by year, to burn upon the altar of the LORD our God, as [it is] written in the law: to And we cast the lots among the priests, the Levites, and the people, for the wood offering, to bring [it] into the house of our God, after the houses of our fathers, at times appointed year by year, {to} burn upon the altar of the LORD our God, as [it is] written in the law: to And {to} bring the firstfruits of our ground, and the firstfruits of all fruit of all trees, year by year, unto the house of the LORD: to Also the firstborn of our sons, and of our cattle, as [it is] written in the law, and the firstlings of our herds and of our flocks, {to} bring to the house of our God, unto the priests that minister in the house of our God: to Also the firstborn of our sons, and of our cattle, as [it is] written in the law, and the firstlings of our herds and of our flocks, to bring {to} the house of our God, unto the priests that minister in the house of our God: to And [that] we should bring the firstfruits of our dough, and our offerings, and the fruit of all manner of trees, of wine and of oil, unto the priests, {to} the chambers of the house of our God;

and the offerings of the priests. to And I came {to} Jerusalem, and understood of the evil that Eliashib did for Tobiah, in preparing him a chamber in the courts of the house of God. to And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given [them]: for the Levites and the singers, that did the work, were fled every one {to} his field. to And I made treasurers over the treasuries, Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah: and next {to} them [was] Hanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah: for they were counted faithful, and their office [wa s] to distribute unto their brethren. to And I made treasurers over the treasuries, Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah: and next to them [was] Hanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah: for they were counted faithful, and their office [was] {to} distribute unto their brethren. to And it came to pass, that when the gates of Jerusalem began {to} be dark before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates should be shut, and charged that they should not be opened till after the sabbath: and [some] of my servants set I at th e gates, [that] there should no burden be brought in on the sabbath day. to And it came {to} pass, that when the gates of Jerusalem began to be dark before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates should be shut, and charged that they should not be opened till after the sabbath: and [some] of my servants set I at th e gates, [that] there should no burden be brought in on the sabbath day. to And I commanded the Levites that they should cleanse themselves, and [that] they should come [and] keep the gates, {to} sanctify the sabbath day.

Remember me, O my God, [concerning] this also, and spare me according {to} the greatness of thy mercy. to And their children spake half in the speech of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Jews' language, but according {to} the language of each people. to Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? yet among many nations was there no king like him, who was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel: nevertheless even him did outlandish women cause {to} sin. to Shall we then hearken unto you to do all this great evil, {to} transgress against our God in marrying strange wives? to Shall we then hearken unto you {to} do all this great evil, to transgress against our God in marrying strange wives? to And [one] of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, [was] son in law {to} Sanballat the Horonite: therefore I chased him from me. to Now it came {to} pass in the days of Ahasuerus, (this [is] Ahasuerus which reigned, from India even unto Ethiopia, [over] an hundred and seven and twenty provinces:) to Where were] white, green, and blue, [hangings], fastened with cords of fine linen and purple {to} silver rings and pillars of marble: the beds [were of] gold and silver, upon a pavement of red, and blue, and white, and black, marble. to And they gave [them] drink in vessels of gold, (the vessels being diverse one from another,) and royal wine in abundance, according {to} the state of the king. to And the drinking [was] according to the law; none did compel: for so the king had appointed to all the officers of his house, that they should do according {to} every man's pleasure. to And the drinking [was] according {to} the law; none did compel: for so the king had appointed to all the officers of his house, that they should do according to every man's pleasure. to And the drinking [was] according to the law;

and the king did according {to} the word of Memucan: to For he sent letters into all the king's provinces, into every province according to the writing thereof, and {to} every people after their language, that every man should bear rule in his own house, and that [it] should be published accordin g to the language of every people. to For he sent letters into all the king's provinces, into every province according {to} the writing thereof, and to every people after their language, that every man should bear rule in his own house, and that [it] should be published accordin g to the language of every people. to For he sent letters into all the king's provinces, into every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language, that every man should bear rule in his own house, and that [it] should be published according {to} the language of every people. to And let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather together all the fair young virgins unto Shushan the palace, {to} the house of the women, unto the custody of Hege the king's chamberlain, keeper of t he women; and let their things for purification be given [them]: to So it came to pass, when the king's commandment and his decree was heard, and when many maidens were gathered together unto Shushan the palace, {to} the custody of Hegai, that Esther was brought also unto the king's house, to the custody of H egai, keeper of the women. to So it came {to} pass, when the king's commandment and his decree was heard, and when many maidens were gathered together unto Shushan the palace, to the custody of Hegai, that Esther was brought also unto the king's house, to the custody of H egai, keeper of the women. to So it came to pass, when the king's commandment and his decree was heard, and when many maidens were gathered together unto Shushan the palace, to the custody of Hegai, that Esther was brought also unto the king's house, {to} the custody of H egai, keeper of the women. to And the maiden pleased him, and she obtained kindness of him; and he speedily gave her her things for purification, with such things as belonged to her, and seven maidens, [which were] meet {to} be given her, out of the king's house: and he p referred her and her maids unto the best [place] of the house of the women. to And the maiden pleased him, and she obtained kindness of him; and he speedily gave her her things for purification, with such things as belonged {to} her, and seven maidens, [which were] meet to be given her, out of the king's house: and he p referred her and her maids unto the best [place] of the house of the women. to And Mordecai walked every day before the court of the women's house, {to} know how Esther did, and what should become of her. to Now when every maid's turn was come to go in {to} king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, [to wit], six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with [other] things for the purifying of the women;) to Now when every maid's turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, [{to} wit], six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with [other] things for the purifying of the women;) to Now when every maid's turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according {to} the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, [to wit], six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with [other] things for the purifying of the women;) to Now when every maid's turn was come {to} go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, [to wit], six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with [other] things for the purifying of the women;) to Then thus came [every] maiden unto the king; whatsoever she desired was given her {to} go with her out of the house of the women unto the king's house. to In the evening she went, and on the morrow she returned into the second house of the women, {to} the custody of Shaashgaz, the king's chamberlain, which kept the concubines: she came in unto the king no more, except the king delighted in her , and that she were called by name. to Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, was come {to} go in unto the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king's chamberlain, the keeper of the women, appointed . And Esther obtained favour in the sight of all them that looked upon her. to Then the king made a great feast unto all his princes and his servants, [even] Esther's feast; and he made a release {to} the provinces, and gave gifts, according to the state of the king. to Then the king made a great feast unto all his princes and his servants, [even] Esther's feast; and he made a release to the provinces, and gave gifts, according {to} the state of the king. to In those days, while Mordecai sat in the king's gate, two of the king's chamberlains, Bigthan and Teresh, of those which kept the door, were wroth, and sought {to} lay hand on the king Ahasuerus. to And the thing was known {to} Mordecai, who told [it] unto Esther the queen; and Esther certified the king [thereof] in Mordecai's name. to Now it came {to} pass, when they spake daily unto him, and he hearkened not unto them, that they told Haman, to see whether Mordecai's matters would stand: for he had told them that he [was] a Jew. to Now it came to pass, when they spake daily unto him, and he hearkened not unto them, that they told Haman, {to} see whether Mordecai's matters would stand: for he had told them that he [was] a Jew. to And he thought scorn to lay hands on Mordecai alone; for they had showed him the people of Mordecai: wherefore Haman sought {to} destroy all the Jews that [were] throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus, [even] the people of Mordecai. to And he thought scorn {to} lay hands on Mordecai alone; for they had showed him the people of Mordecai: wherefore Haman sought to destroy all the Jews that [were] throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus, [even] the people of Mordecai. to In the first month, that [is], the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that [is], the lot, before Haman from day {to} day, and from month to month, [to] the twelfth [month], that [is], the month Adar. to In the first month, that [is], the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that [is], the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month {to} month, [to] the twelfth [month], that [is], the month Adar. to In the first month, that [is], the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that [is], the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month to month, [{to}] the twelfth [month], that [is], the month Adar. to And Haman said unto king Ahasuerus, There is a certain people scattered abroad and dispersed among the people in all the provinces of thy kingdom; and their laws [are] diverse from all people; neither keep they the king's laws: therefore it [ is] not for the king's profit {to} suffer them. to If it please the king, let it be written that they may be destroyed: and I will pay ten thousand talents of silver to the hands of those that have the charge of the business, {to} bring [it] into the king's treasuries. to If it please the king, let it be written that they may be destroyed: and I will pay ten thousand talents of silver {to} the hands of those that have the charge of the business, to bring [it] into the king's treasuries. to And the king said unto Haman, The silver [is] given {to} thee, the people also, to do with them as it seemeth good to thee. to And the king said unto Haman, The silver [is] given to thee, the people also, {to} do with them as it seemeth good to thee. to And the king said unto Haman, The silver [is] given to thee, the people also, to do with them as it seemeth good {to} thee. to Then were the king's scribes called on the thirteenth day of the first month, and there was written according to all that Haman had commanded unto the king's lieutenants, and to the governors that [were] over every province, and {to} the rul ers of every people of every province according to the writing thereof, and [to] every people after their language;

but thou and thy father's house shall be destroyed: and who knoweth whether thou art come {to} the ki ngdom for [such] a time as this? to For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, [then] shall there enlargement and deliverance arise {to} the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father's house shall be destroyed: and who knoweth whether thou art come to the ki ngdom for [such] a time as this? to Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast likewise; and so will I go in unto the king, which [is] not according {to} the law: and if I perish, I perish. to So Mordecai went his way, and did according {to} all that Esther had commanded him. to Now it came {to} pass on the third day, that Esther put on [her] royal [apparel], and stood in the inner court of the king's house, over against the king's house: and the king sat upon his royal throne in the royal house, over against the gat e of the house. to And it was so, when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, [that] she obtained favour in his sight: and the king held out {to} Esther the golden sceptre that [was] in his hand. So Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sce ptre. to Then said the king unto her, What wilt thou, queen Esther? and what [is] thy request? it shall be even given thee {to} the half of the kingdom. to Then the king said, Cause Haman {to} make haste, that he may do as Esther hath said. So the king and Haman came to the banquet that Esther had prepared. to Then the king said, Cause Haman to make haste, that he may do as Esther hath said. So the king and Haman came {to} the banquet that Esther had prepared. to And the king said unto Esther at the banquet of wine, What [is] thy petition? and it shall be granted thee: and what [is] thy request? even {to} the half of the kingdom it shall be performed. to If I have found favour in the sight of the king, and if it please the king {to} grant my petition, and to perform my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and I will do to morrow as the king hath s aid. to If I have found favour in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and to perform my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and I will do {to} morrow as the king hath s aid. to If I have found favour in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and {to} perform my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and I will do to morrow as the king hath s aid. to If I have found favour in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and to perform my request, let the king and Haman come {to} the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and I will do to morrow as the king hath s aid. to Haman said moreover, Yea, Esther the queen did let no man come in with the king unto the banquet that she had prepared but myself; and {to} morrow am I invited unto her also with the king. to Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends unto him, Let a gallows be made of fifty cubits high, and to morrow speak thou unto the king that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then go thou in merrily with the king unto the banquet. And the t hing pleased Haman; and he caused the gallows {to} be made. to Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends unto him, Let a gallows be made of fifty cubits high, and {to} morrow speak thou unto the king that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then go thou in merrily with the king unto the banquet. And the thing pleased Haman; and he caused the gallows to be made. to On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded {to} bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king. to And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought {to} lay hand on the king Ahasuerus. to And the king said, What honour and dignity hath been done {to} Mordecai for this? Then said the king's servants that ministered unto him, There is nothing done for him. to And the king said, Who [is] in the court? Now Haman was come into the outward court of the king's house, to speak unto the king {to} hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him. to And the king said, Who [is] in the court? Now Haman was come into the outward court of the king's house, {to} speak unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him. to So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, {To} whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself? to So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight {to} do honour more than to myself? to So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth {to} honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself? to So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than {to} myself? to And Haman answered the king, For the man whom the king delighteth {to} honour, to Let the royal apparel be brought which the king [useth] {to} wear, and the horse that the king rideth upon, and the crown royal which is set upon his head: to And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, that they may array the man [withal] whom the king delighteth to honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done {to} the man whom the king delighteth to honour. to And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, that they may array the man [withal] whom the king delighteth {to} honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclai m before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour. to And let this apparel and horse be delivered {to} the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, that they may array the man [withal] whom the king delighteth to honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclai m before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour. to And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, that they may array the man [withal] whom the king delighteth to honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth {to} honour. to Then the king said {to} Haman, Make haste, [and] take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king's gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken. to Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, [and] take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so {to} Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king's gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken. to Then took Haman the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done unto the man whom the king delighteth {to} honour. to And Mordecai came again {to} the king's gate. But Haman hasted to his house mourning, and having his head covered. to And Mordecai came again to the king's gate. But Haman hasted {to} his house mourning, and having his head covered. to And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every [thing] that had befallen him. Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife unto him, If Mordecai [be] of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun {to} fall, thou shalt not prev ail against him, but shalt surely fall before him. to And while they [were] yet talking with him, came the king's chamberlains, and hasted {to} bring Haman unto the banquet that Esther had prepared. to So the king and Haman came {to} banquet with Esther the queen. to And the king said again unto Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, What [is] thy petition, queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee: and what [is] thy request? and it shall be performed, [even] {to} the half of the kingdom. to For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, {to} be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy could not countervail the king's damage. to For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and {to} perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy could not countervail the king's damage. to For we are sold, I and my people, {to} be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy could not countervail the king's damage. to Then the king Ahasuerus answered and said unto Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume in his heart {to} do so? to And the king arising from the banquet of wine in his wrath [went] into the palace garden: and Haman stood up to make request for his life {to} Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king. to And the king arising from the banquet of wine in his wrath [went] into the palace garden: and Haman stood up {to} make request for his life to Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king. to And Esther spake yet again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and besought him with tears {to} put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite, and his device that he had devised against the Jews. to And said, If it please the king, and if I have found favour in his sight, and the thing [seem] right before the king, and I [be] pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite , which he wrote {to} destroy the Jews which [are] in all the king's provinces: to And said, If it please the king, and if I have found favour in his sight, and the thing [seem] right before the king, and I [be] pleasing in his eyes, let it be written {to} reverse the letters devised by Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagi te, which he wrote to destroy the Jews which [are] in all the king's provinces: to For how can I endure {to} see the evil that shall come unto my people? or how can I endure to see the destruction of my kindred? to For how can I endure to see the evil that shall come unto my people? or how can I endure {to} see the destruction of my kindred? to Then the king Ahasuerus said unto Esther the queen and {to} Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he laid his hand upon the Jews. to Then were the king's scribes called at that time in the third month, that [is], the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth [day] thereof;

Thus did Job continually. to Now there was a day when the sons of God came {to} present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them. to And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going {to} and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. to But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee {to} thy face. to And the Sabeans fell [upon them], and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone {to} tell thee. to While he [was] yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone {to} tell thee. to While he [was] yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone {to } tell thee. to And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone {to} tell thee. to Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them {to} present himself before the LORD. to Again there was a day when the sons of God came {to} present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD. to And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going {to} and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. to And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that [there is] none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou move dst me against him, {to} destroy him without cause. to But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee {to} thy face. to And he took him a potsherd {to} scrape himself withal; and he sat down among the ashes. to Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together {to} come to mourn with him and to comfort him. to Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come {t o} mourn with him and to comfort him. to Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and {to} comfort him. to Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready {to} raise up their mourning. to Wherefore is light given {to} him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter [in] soul; to Why is light given] {to} a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in? to If] we assay {to} commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved? but who can withhold himself from speaking? to Now a thing was secretly brought {to} me, and mine ear received a little thereof. to Fear came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones {to} shake. to They are destroyed from morning {to} evening: they perish for ever without any regarding [it]. to Call now, if there be any that will answer thee; and {to} which of the saints wilt thou turn? to His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, neither [is there] any {to} deliver [them]. to To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted {to} safety. to {To} set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted to safety. to Thou shalt come {to} [thy] grave in a full age, like as a shock of corn cometh in in his season. to The things [that] my soul refused {to} touch [are] as my sorrowful meat. to Even that it would please God {to} destroy me; that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off! to {To} him that is afflicted pity [should be showed] from his friend; but he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty. to The paths of their way are turned aside; they go {to} nothing, and perish. to Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me {to} understand wherein I have erred. to Do ye imagine {to} reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, [which are] as wind? to Is there] not an appointed time {to} man upon earth? [are not] his days also like the days of an hireling? to So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed {to} me. to So am I made {to} possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me. to When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am full of tossings {to} and fro unto the dawning of the day. to As] the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth down {to} the grave shall come up no [more]. to He shall return no more {to} his house, neither shall his place know him any more. to I have sinned; what shall I do unto thee, O thou preserver of men? why hast thou set me as a mark against thee, so that I am a burden {to} myself? to If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication {to} the Almighty; to For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself {to} the search of their fathers: to They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come {to} nought. to How much less shall I answer him, [and] choose out my words [{to} reason] with him? to Whom, though I were righteous, [yet] would I not answer, [but] I would make supplication {to} my judge. to He will not suffer me {to} take my breath, but filleth me with bitterness. to If [I speak] of strength, lo, [he is] strong: and if of judgment, who shall set me a time [{to} plead]? to They are passed away as the swift ships: as the eagle [that] hasteth {to} the prey. to I should have been as though I had not been; I should have been carried from the womb {to} the grave. to Before I go [whence] I shall not return, [even] {to} the land of darkness and the shadow of death; to And that he would show thee the secrets of wisdom, that [they are] double {to} that which is! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee [less] than thine iniquity [deserveth]. to But I have understanding as well as you; I [am] not inferior {to} you: yea, who knoweth not such things as these? to I am [as] one mocked of his neighbour, who calleth upon God, and he answereth him: the just upright [man is] laughed {to} scorn. to He that is ready {to} slip with [his] feet [is as] a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease. to Or speak {to} the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee. to He discovereth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth out {to} light the shadow of death. to He taketh away the heart of the chief of the people of the earth, and causeth them {to} wander in a wilderness [where there is] no way. to They grope in the dark without light, and he maketh them {to} stagger like [a] drunken [man]. to Surely I would speak {to} the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God. to Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire {to} reason with God. to Hear now my reasoning, and hearken {to} the pleadings of my lips. to Your remembrances [are] like unto ashes, your bodies {to} bodies of clay. to How many [are] mine iniquities and sins? make me {to} know my transgression and my sin. to Wilt thou break a leaf driven {to} and fro? and wilt thou pursue the dry stubble? to For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me {to} possess the iniquities of my youth. to Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire {to} the work of thine hands. to And surely the mountain falling cometh {to} nought, and the rock is removed out of his place. to His sons come {to} honour, and he knoweth [it] not; and they are brought low, but he perceiveth [it] not of them. to Hast thou heard the secret of God? and dost thou restrain wisdom {to} thyself? to The wicked man travaileth with pain all [his] days, and the number of years is hidden {to} the oppressor. to Trouble and anguish shall make him afraid; they shall prevail against him, as a king ready {to} the battle. to And he dwelleth in desolate cities, [and] in houses which no man inhabiteth, which are ready {to} become heaps. to And thou hast filled me with wrinkles, [which] is a witness [against me]: and my leanness rising up in me beareth witness {to} my face. to God hath delivered me {to} the ungodly, and turned me over into the hands of the wicked. to I was at ease, but he hath broken me asunder: he hath also taken [me] by my neck, and shaken me {to} pieces, and set me up for his mark. to He that speaketh flattery {to} [his] friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail. to I have said to corruption, Thou [art] my father: {to} the worm, [Thou art] my mother, and my sister. to I have said {to} corruption, Thou [art] my father: to the worm, [Thou art] my mother, and my sister. to They shall go down {to} the bars of the pit, when [our] rest together [is] in the dust. to Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall drive him {to} his feet. to His confidence shall be rooted out of his tabernacle, and it shall bring him {to} the king of terrors. to These ten times have ye reproached me: ye are not ashamed [that] ye make yourselves strange {to} me. to My breath is strange {to} my wife, though I entreated for the children's [sake] of mine own body. to My bone cleaveth to my skin and {to} my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth. to My bone cleaveth {to} my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth. to Therefore do my thoughts cause me {to} answer, and for [this] I make haste. to I have heard the check of my reproach, and the spirit of my understanding causeth me {to} answer. to Though his excellency mount up {to} the heavens, and his head reach unto the clouds; to His children shall seek {to} please the poor, and his hands shall restore their goods. to That which he laboured for shall he restore, and shall not swallow [it] down: according {to} [his] substance [shall] the restitution [be], and he shall not rejoice [therein]. to When] he is about {to} fill his belly, [God] shall cast the fury of his wrath upon him, and shall rain [it] upon him while he is eating. to As for me, [is] my complaint {to} man? and if [it were so], why should not my spirit be troubled? to They spend their days in wealth, and in a moment go down {to} the grave. to That the wicked is reserved {to} the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath. to That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth {to} the day of wrath. to Who shall declare his way {to} his face? and who shall repay him [what] he hath done? to Yet shall he be brought {to} the grave, and shall remain in the tomb. to Is it] any pleasure to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? or [is it] gain [{to} him], that thou makest thy ways perfect? to Is it] any pleasure {to} the Almighty, that thou art righteous? or [is it] gain [to him], that thou makest thy ways perfect? to Thou hast not given water to the weary {to} drink, and thou hast withholden bread from the hungry. to Thou hast not given water {to} the weary to drink, and thou hast withholden bread from the hungry. to Thick clouds [are] a covering {to} him, that he seeth not; and he walketh in the circuit of heaven. to The righteous see [it], and are glad: and the innocent laugh them {to} scorn. to If thou return {to} the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles. to Even {to} day [is] my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning. to Oh that I knew where I might find him! [that] I might come [even] {to} his seat! to Behold, [as] wild asses in the desert, go they forth {to} their work; rising betimes for a prey: the wilderness [yieldeth] food for them [and] for [their] children. to They cause the naked {to} lodge without clothing, that [they have] no covering in the cold. to They cause [him] {to} go naked without clothing, and they take away the sheaf [from] the hungry; to Men groan from out of the city, and the soul of the wounded crieth out: yet God layeth not folly [{to} them]. to For the morning [is] {to} them even as the shadow of death: if [one] know [them, they are in] the terrors of the shadow of death. to He evil entreateth the barren [that] beareth not: and doeth not good {to} the widow. to Though] it be given him [{to} be] in safety, whereon he resteth; yet his eyes [are] upon their ways. to Behold even {to} the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight. to {To} whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee? to He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come {to} an end. to He setteth an end {to} darkness, and searcheth out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death. to He bindeth the floods from overflowing; and [the thing that is] hid bringeth he forth {to} light. to For he looketh {to} the ends of the earth, [and] seeth under the whole heaven; to {To} make the weight for the winds; and he weigheth the waters by measure. to And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that [is] wisdom; and {to} depart from evil [is] understanding. to When I went out {to} the gate through the city, [when] I prepared my seat in the street! to The nobles held their peace, and their tongue cleaved {to} the roof of their mouth. to When the ear heard [me], then it blessed me; and when the eye saw [me], it gave witness {to} me: to Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and [him that had] none {to} help him. to The blessing of him that was ready {to} perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy. to The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart {to} sing for joy. to I was eyes to the blind, and feet [was] I {to} the lame. to I was eyes {to} the blind, and feet [was] I to the lame. to I [was] a father {to} the poor: and the cause [which] I knew not I searched out. to But now [they that are] younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I would have disdained {to} have set with the dogs of my flock. to {To} dwell in the cliffs of the valleys, [in] caves of the earth, and [in] the rocks. to They abhor me, they flee far from me, and spare not {to} spit in my face. to Thou art become cruel {to} me: with thy strong hand thou opposest thyself against me. to Thou liftest me up {to} the wind; thou causest me to ride [upon it], and dissolvest my substance. to Thou liftest me up to the wind; thou causest me {to} ride [upon it], and dissolvest my substance. to For I know [that] thou wilt bring me [to] death, and [{to}] the house appointed for all living. to For I know [that] thou wilt bring me [{to}] death, and [to] the house appointed for all living. to Howbeit he will not stretch out [his] hand {to} the grave, though they cry in his destruction. to I am a brother to dragons, and a companion {to} owls. to I am a brother {to} dragons, and a companion to owls. to My harp also is [turned] {to} mourning, and my organ into the voice of them that weep. to Is] not destruction to the wicked? and a strange [punishment] {to} the workers of iniquity? to Is] not destruction {to} the wicked? and a strange [punishment] to the workers of iniquity? to If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot hath hasted {to} deceit; to If my step hath turned out of the way, and mine heart walked after mine eyes, and if any blot hath cleaved {to} mine hands; to For this [is] an heinous crime; yea, it [is] an iniquity [{to} be punished by] the judges. to For it [is] a fire [that] consumeth {to} destruction, and would root out all mine increase. to If I have withheld the poor from [their] desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow {to} fail; to For destruction [from] God [was] a terror {to} me, and by reason of his highness I could not endure. to If I have made gold my hope, or have said {to} the fine gold, [Thou art] my confidence; to This also [were] an iniquity [{to} be punished by] the judge: for I should have denied the God [that is] above. to Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin by wishing a curse {to} his soul. to Neither have I suffered my mouth {to} sin by wishing a curse to his soul. to The stranger did not lodge in the street: [but] I opened my doors {to} the traveller. to Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, [and] bind it [as] a crown {to} me. to If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the owners thereof {to} lose their life: to So these three men ceased {to} answer Job, because he [was] righteous in his own eyes. to Therefore I said, Hearken {to} me; I also will show mine opinion. to Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what {to} say. to Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear {to} your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say. to Behold, my belly [is] as wine [which] hath no vent; it is ready {to} burst like new bottles. to For I know not {to} give flattering titles; [in so doing] my maker would soon take me away. to Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, hear my speeches, and hearken {to} all my words. to Behold, I [am] according {to} thy wish in God's stead: I also am formed out of the clay. to Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life {to} the destroyers. to If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, {to} show unto man his uprightness: to Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down {to} the pit: I have found a ransom. to His flesh shall be fresher than a child's: he shall return {to} the days of his youth: to To bring back his soul from the pit, {to} be enlightened with the light of the living. to {To} bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living. to If thou hast any thing {to} say, answer me: speak, for I desire to justify thee. to If thou hast any thing to say, answer me: speak, for I desire {to} justify thee. to Let us choose {to} us judgment: let us know among ourselves what [is] good. to For the work of a man shall he render unto him, and cause every man {to} find according to [his] ways. to For the work of a man shall he render unto him, and cause every man to find according {to} [his] ways. to If now [thou hast] understanding, hear this: hearken {to} the voice of my words. to Is it fit] to say to a king, [Thou art] wicked? [and] {to} princes, [Ye are] ungodly? to Is it fit] to say {to} a king, [Thou art] wicked? [and] to princes, [Ye are] ungodly? to Is it fit] {to} say to a king, [Thou art] wicked? [and] to princes, [Ye are] ungodly? to How much less {to} him] that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? for they all [are] the work of his hands. to So that they cause the cry of the poor {to} come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted. to Surely it is meet {to} be said unto God, I have borne [chastisement], I will not offend [any more]: to Should it be] according {to} thy mind? he will recompense it, whether thou refuse, or whether thou choose; and not I: therefore speak what thou knowest. to Thinkest thou this {to} be right, [that] thou saidst, My righteousness [is] more than God's? to By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make [the oppressed] {to} cry: they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty. to Suffer me a little, and I will show thee that [I have] yet {to} speak on God's behalf. to I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness {to} my Maker. to He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth right {to} the poor. to He openeth also their ear {to} discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity. to For he maketh small the drops of water: they pour down rain according {to} the vapour thereof: to With clouds he covereth the light; and commandeth it [not {to} shine] by [the cloud] that cometh betwixt. to For he saith to the snow, Be thou [on] the earth; likewise {to} the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength. to For he saith to the snow, Be thou [on] the earth; likewise to the small rain, and {to} the great rain of his strength. to For he saith {to} the snow, Be thou [on] the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength. to He causeth it {to} come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy. to Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light of his cloud {to} shine? to Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; [and] caused the dayspring {to} know his place; to It is turned as clay [{to}] the seal; and they stand as a garment. to That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths [{to}] the house thereof? to That thou shouldest take it {to} the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths [to] the house thereof? to To cause it {to} rain on the earth, [where] no man [is; on] the wilderness, wherein [there is] no man; to {To} cause it to rain on the earth, [where] no man [is; on] the wilderness, wherein [there is] no man; to To satisfy the desolate and waste [ground]; and to cause the bud of the tender herb {to} spring forth? to To satisfy the desolate and waste [ground]; and {to} cause the bud of the tender herb to spring forth? to {To} satisfy the desolate and waste [ground]; and to cause the bud of the tender herb to spring forth? to Canst thou lift up thy voice {to} the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover thee? to Who hath put wisdom in the inward parts? or who hath given understanding {to} the heart? to When they couch in [their] dens, [and] abide in the covert {to} lie in wait? to Will the unicorn be willing {to} serve thee, or abide by thy crib? to Wilt thou trust him, because his strength [is] great? or wilt thou leave thy labour {to} him? to Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted {to} her understanding. to He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in [his] strength: he goeth on {to} meet the armed men. to He [is] the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword {to} approach [unto him]. to None [is so] fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able {to} stand before me? to Who can discover the face of his garment? [or] who can come [{to} him] with his double bridle? to One is so near {to} another, that no air can come between them. to They are joined one {to} another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered. to He maketh the deep {to} boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment. to He maketh a path {to} shine after him; [one] would think the deep [to be] hoary. to He maketh a path to shine after him; [one] would think the deep [{to} be] hoary. to And it was [so], that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said {to} Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me [the thing that is] right, as my serva nt Job [hath]. to Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and go {to} my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will I accept: lest I deal with you [after your] folly, in th at ye have not spoken of me [the thing which is] right, like my servant Job. to {To} the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm of David. Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me [when I was] in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer. to {To} the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation. to To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David. Give ear {to} my words, O LORD, consider my meditation. to {To} the chief Musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David. O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure. to I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed {to} swim; I water my couch with my tears. to Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending [it] in pieces, while [there is] none {to} deliver. to Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and awake for me [{to}] the judgment [that] thou hast commanded. to The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according {to} my righteousness, and according to mine integrity [that is] in me. to The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according {to} mine integrity [that is] in me. to Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come {to} an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins. to I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise {to} the name of the LORD most high. to I will praise the LORD according {to} his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high. to {To} the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David. O LORD our Lord, how excellent [is] thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens. to Thou madest him {to} have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all [things] under his feet: to {To} the chief Musician upon Muthlabben, A Psalm of David. I will praise [thee], O LORD, with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy marvellous works. to I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise {to} thy name, O thou most High. to O thou enemy, destructions are come {to} a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them. to And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment {to} the people in uprightness. to Sing praises {to} the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings. to Put them in fear, O LORD: [that] the nations may know themselves [{to} be but] men. Selah. to He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait {to} catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net. to Thou hast seen [it]: for thou beholdest mischief and spite, {to} requite [it] with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless. to LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear {to} hear: to {To} judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress. to To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David. In the LORD put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee [as] a bird {to} your mountain? to {To} the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David. In the LORD put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee [as] a bird to your mountain? to To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David.

Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men. to {To} the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me? to {To} the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David. The fool hath said in his heart, [There is] no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, [there is] none that doeth good. to The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, {to} see if there were any that did understand, [and] seek God. to He that] backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil {to} his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour. to In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD.
