06-JOSHUA
06-1:2 Moses
my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over
this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.
06-1:8 This
book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate
therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way
prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
06-1:9 Have
not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither
be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.
06-2:9 And
she said unto the men, I know that the LORD hath given you the land, and that
your terror is fallen upon us, and that all the
inhabitants of the land faint because of you.
06-2:11 And
as soon as we had heard these things, our
hearts did melt, neither did there remain any more courage in any man, because
of you: for the LORD your God, he is God in heaven above, and in earth beneath.
06-3:10 And
Joshua said, Hereby ye shall know that the living God is among you, and that he will without fail drive out from
before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hivites, and the
Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Jebusites.
06-3:16 That
the waters which came down from above stood and
rose up upon an heap very far from the city Adam, that is beside Zaretan: and those that
came down toward the sea of the plain, even
the salt sea, failed, and were
cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho.
06-4:24 That
all the people of the earth might know the hand of the LORD, that it is mighty:
that ye might fear the LORD your God for ever.
06-5:4 And
this is the
cause why Joshua did circumcise: All the people that came out of Egypt, that were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness by the way, after
they came out of Egypt.
06-5:9 And
the LORD said unto Joshua, This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt
from off you. Wherefore the name of the place is
called Gilgal unto this day.
06-5:15 And
the captain of the LORD’S host said unto Joshua, Loose thy shoe from off thy
foot; for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so.
06-6:7 And
he said unto the people, Pass on, and compass the city, and let him that is armed pass on before the ark of the LORD.
06-7:2 And
Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is beside Bethaven, on the east side of Bethel,
and spake unto them, saying, Go up and view the country. And the men went up
and viewed Ai.
06-7:13 Up,
sanctify the people, and say, Sanctify yourselves against to morrow: for thus
saith the LORD God of Israel, There is an accursed thing in the midst of thee, O
Israel: thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the
accursed thing from among you.
06-7:15 And
it shall be, that he that is taken with the accursed thing shall be burnt with
fire, he and all that he hath: because he hath transgressed the covenant of the
LORD, and because he hath wrought folly in Israel.
06-8:18 And
the LORD said unto Joshua, Stretch out the spear that is in thy hand toward Ai; for I will
give it into thine hand. And Joshua stretched out the spear that he had in his hand toward the city.
06-8:31 As
Moses the servant of the LORD commanded the children of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, an altar
of whole stones, over which no man hath lift up any iron: and they offered thereon burnt offerings unto the LORD,
and sacrificed peace offerings.
06-8:34 And
afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessings and cursings,
according to all that is written in the book of
the law.
06-9:12 This
our bread we took hot for our
provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go unto you; but now,
behold, it is dry, and it is mouldy:
06-10:13 And
the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged
themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the
sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole
day.
06-11:4 And
they went out, they and all their hosts with them, much people, even as the
sand that is
upon the sea shore in multitude, with horses and chariots very many.
06-12:2 Sihon
king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon, and
ruled from Aroer, which is upon the bank of the river Arnon, and from the
middle of the river, and from half Gilead, even unto the river Jabbok, which is the
border of the children of Ammon;
06-12:9 The
king of Jericho, one; the king of Ai, which is beside Bethel, one;
06-13:2 This
is the
land that yet remaineth: all the borders of the Philistines, and all Geshuri,
06-13:3 From
Sihor, which is
before Egypt, even unto the borders of Ekron northward, which is
counted to the Canaanite: five lords of the Philistines; the Gazathites, and
the Ashdothites, the Eshkalonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites; also the
Avites:
06-13:4 From
the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that is beside the Sidonians unto Aphek,
to the borders of the Amorites:
06-13:9 From
Aroer, that is
upon the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the river, and
all the plain of Medeba unto Dibon;
06-13:16 And
their coast was from Aroer, that is on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city
that is in
the midst of the river, and all the plain by Medeba;
06-13:25 And
their coast was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the
children of Ammon, unto Aroer that is before Rabbah;
06-13:28 This
is the
inheritance of the children of Gad after their families, the cities, and their
villages.
06-14:11 As
yet I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me: as
my strength was then, even so is my
strength now, for war, both to go out, and to come in.
06-15:7 And
the border went up toward Debir from the valley of Achor, and so northward,
looking toward Gilgal, that is before the going up to Adummim, which is on the
south side of the river: and the border passed toward the waters of Enshemesh,
and the goings out thereof were at Enrogel:
06-15:8 And
the border went up by the valley of the son of Hinnom unto the south side of
the Jebusite; the same is Jerusalem: and the border went up to the top of
the mountain that lieth before the
valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the end of the valley of the giants
northward:
06-15:9 And
the border was drawn from the top of the hill unto the fountain of the water of
Nephtoah, and went out to the cities of mount Ephron; and the border was drawn
to Baalah, which is
Kirjathjearim:
06-15:10 And
the border compassed from Baalah westward unto mount Seir, and passed along
unto the side of mount Jearim, which is Chesalon, on the north side, and went down to
Bethshemesh, and passed on to Timnah:
06-15:12 And
the west border was to the great sea,
and the coast thereof. This is the
coast of the children of Judah round about according to their families.
06-15:13 And
unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a part among the children of Judah,
according to the commandment of the LORD to Joshua, even the city of Arba the father of Anak, which city is Hebron.
06-15:20 This
is the
inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families.
06-15:25 And
Hazor, Hadattah, and Kerioth, and Hezron,
which is Hazor,
06-15:49 And
Dannah, and Kirjathsannah, which is Debir,
06-15:54 And
Humtah, and Kirjatharba, which is Hebron, and Zior; nine cities with their
villages:
06-15:60 Kirjathbaal,
which is Kirjathjearim,
and Rabbah; two cities with their villages:
06-16:8 The
border went out from Tappuah westward unto the river Kanah; and the goings out
thereof were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of
Ephraim by their families.
06-17:10 Southward
it was Ephraim’s, and northward it was Manasseh’s, and the sea is his border; and they met together in Asher on the
north, and in Issachar on the east.
06-17:16 And
the children of Joseph said, The hill is not
enough for us: and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have
chariots of iron, both they who are of Bethshean and her towns, and they who are of the valley of Jezreel.
06-17:18 But
the mountain shall be thine; for it is a wood, and thou shalt cut it down: and the
outgoings of it shall be thine: for thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though
they have iron chariots, and though
they be strong.
06-18:7 But
the Levites have no part among you; for the priesthood of the LORD is their
inheritance: and Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh, have received
their inheritance beyond Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of the
LORD gave them.
06-18:13 And
the border went over from thence toward Luz, to the side of Luz, which is Bethel,
southward; and the border descended to Atarothadar, near the hill that lieth on the south side of the nether
Bethhoron.
06-18:14 And
the border was drawn thence, and
compassed the corner of the sea southward, from the hill that lieth before Bethhoron southward; and
the goings out thereof were at Kirjathbaal, which is Kirjathjearim, a city of the
children of Judah: this was the west
quarter.
06-18:16 And
the border came down to the end of the mountain that lieth before the valley of the son of Hinnom, and which is in the valley of the giants on the north, and
descended to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of Jebusi on the south, and
descended to Enrogel,
06-18:17 And
was drawn from the north, and went forth to Enshemesh, and went forth toward
Geliloth, which is
over against the going up of Adummim, and descended to the stone of Bohan
the son of Reuben,
06-18:28 And
Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi, which is Jerusalem, Gibeath, and Kirjath; fourteen cities with their villages. This is the
inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
06-19:8 And
all the villages that were round
about these cities to Baalathbeer, Ramath of the south. This is the
inheritance of the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families.
06-19:11 And
their border went up toward the sea, and Maralah, and reached to Dabbasheth,
and reached to the river that is before Jokneam;
06-19:16 This
is the
inheritance of the children of Zebulun according to their families, these
cities with their villages.
06-19:23 This
is the
inheritance of the tribe of the children of Issachar according to their
families, the cities and their villages.
06-19:31 This
is the
inheritance of the tribe of the children of Asher according to their families,
these cities with their villages.
06-19:39 This
is the
inheritance of the tribe of the children of Naphtali according to their
families, the cities and their villages.
06-19:48 This
is the
inheritance of the tribe of the children of Dan according to their families,
these cities with their villages.
06-20:7 And
they appointed Kedesh in Galilee in mount Naphtali, and Shechem in mount
Ephraim, and Kirjatharba, which is Hebron, in the mountain of Judah.
06-21:11 And
they gave them the city of Arba the father of Anak, which city is Hebron, in the hill country of Judah, with the suburbs
thereof round about it.
06-22:9 And
the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh
returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of Shiloh, which is in the
land of Canaan, to go unto the country of Gilead, to the land of their
possession, whereof they were possessed, according to the word of the LORD by
the hand of Moses.
06-22:16 Thus
saith the whole congregation of the LORD, What trespass is this that ye have committed
against the God of Israel, to turn away this day from following the LORD, in
that ye have builded you an altar, that ye might rebel this day against the
LORD?
06-22:17 Is the
iniquity of Peor too little for us, from which we are not cleansed until this
day, although there was a plague in the congregation of the LORD,
06-22:28 Therefore
said we, that it shall be, when they should so
say to us or to our generations in time to come, that we may say again, Behold the pattern of the altar
of the LORD, which our fathers made, not for burnt offerings, nor for
sacrifices; but it is a witness between us and you.
06-22:29 God
forbid that we should rebel against the LORD, and turn this day from following
the LORD, to build an altar for burnt offerings, for meat offerings, or for
sacrifices, beside the altar of the LORD our God that is before his tabernacle.
06-22:31 And
Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said unto the children of Reuben, and to
the children of Gad, and to the children of Manasseh, This day we perceive that
the LORD is
among us, because ye have not committed this trespass against the LORD: now
ye have delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of the LORD.
06-22:34 And
the children of Reuben and the children of Gad called the altar Ed: for it shall be a witness between us that the LORD is God.
06-23:3 And
ye have seen all that the LORD your God hath done unto all these nations
because of you; for the LORD your God is he that hath fought for you.
06-23:6 Be
ye therefore very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, that ye turn not aside
therefrom to the right hand or to the left;
06-23:10 One
man of you shall chase a thousand: for the LORD your God, he it is that
fighteth for you, as he hath promised you.
06-24:17 For
the LORD our God, he it is that brought us up and our fathers out of the
land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, and which did those great signs in
our sight, and preserved us in all the way wherein we went, and among all the
people through whom we passed:
06-24:18 And
the LORD drave out from before us all the people, even the Amorites which dwelt
in the land: therefore will we also
serve the LORD; for he is our God.
06-24:19 And
Joshua said unto the people, Ye cannot serve the LORD: for he is an
holy God; he is
a jealous God; he will not forgive your transgressions nor your sins.
06-24:30 And
they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnathserah, which is in
mount Ephraim, on the north side of the hill of Gaash.
07-JUDGES
07-1:26 And
the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called the
name thereof Luz: which is the name thereof unto this day.
07-4:11 Now
Heber the Kenite, which was of the
children of Hobab the father in law of Moses, had severed himself from the
Kenites, and pitched his tent unto the plain of Zaanaim, which is by
Kedesh.
07-4:14 And
Deborah said unto Barak, Up; for this is the day in which the LORD hath delivered Sisera
into thine hand: is not the LORD gone out before
thee? So Barak went down from mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
07-4:20 Again
he said unto her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man
doth come and enquire of thee, and say, Is there
any man here? that thou shalt say, No.
07-5:9 My
heart is toward
the governors of Israel, that offered themselves willingly among the people.
Bless ye the LORD.
07-5:28 The
mother of Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattice, Why is his chariot so
long in coming? why tarry the wheels of his chariots?
07-6:12 And
the angel of the LORD appeared unto him, and said unto him, The LORD is with
thee, thou mighty man of valour.
07-6:13 And
Gideon said unto him, Oh my Lord, if the LORD be with us, why then is all this befallen us? and where be all his miracles which our fathers
told us of, saying, Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt? but now the LORD
hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites.
07-6:15 And
he said unto him, Oh my Lord, wherewith shall I save Israel? behold, my family is poor
in Manasseh, and I am the least in my
father’s house.
07-6:24 Then
Gideon built an altar there unto the LORD, and called it Jehovahshalom: unto
this day it is
yet in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.
07-6:25 And
it came to pass the same night, that the LORD said unto him, Take thy father’s young
bullock, even the second bullock of seven years old, and throw down the altar
of Baal that thy father hath, and cut down the grove that is by it:
07-6:31 And
Joash said unto all that stood against him, Will ye plead for Baal? will ye
save him? he that will plead for him, let him be put to death whilst it is yet morning:
if he be a god, let him plead for
himself, because one hath cast down
his altar.
07-7:1 Then
Jerubbaal, who is
Gideon, and all the people that were with
him, rose up early, and pitched beside the well of Harod: so that the host of
the Midianites were on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the
valley.
07-7:3 Now
therefore go to, proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, Whosoever is fearful
and afraid, let him return and depart early from mount Gilead. And there
returned of the people twenty and two thousand; and there remained ten
thousand.
07-7:14 And
his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son
of Joash, a man of Israel: for into
his hand hath God delivered Midian, and all the host.
07-8:2 And
he said unto them, What have I done now in comparison of you? Is not
the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer?
07-8:21 Then
Zebah and Zalmunna said, Rise thou, and fall upon us: for as the man is, so is his strength. And Gideon arose, and slew Zebah
and Zalmunna, and took away the ornaments that were on their camels’ necks.
07-9:2 Speak,
I pray you, in the ears of all the men of Shechem, Whether is better for you, either that all
the sons of Jerubbaal, which are threescore
and ten persons, reign over you, or that one reign over you? remember also that
I am your bone and your flesh.
07-9:3 And
his mother’s brethren spake of him in the ears of all the men of Shechem all
these words: and their hearts inclined to follow Abimelech; for they said, He is our
brother.
07-9:18 And
ye are risen up against my father’s house this day, and have slain his sons,
threescore and ten persons, upon one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of
his maidservant, king over the men of Shechem, because he is your brother;)
07-9:28 And
Gaal the son of Ebed said, Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve
him? is not
he the son of Jerubbaal? and Zebul
his officer? serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem: for why should we
serve him?
07-9:32 Now
therefore up by night, thou and the people that is with thee, and lie in wait in the
field:
07-9:33 And
it shall be, that in the morning, as
soon as the sun is up, thou shalt rise early,
and set upon the city: and, behold, when he
and the people that is with him come out against thee, then mayest
thou do to them as thou shalt find occasion.
07-9:38 Then
said Zebul unto him, Where is now thy mouth, wherewith thou saidst, Who is Abimelech,
that we should serve him? is not this the people that thou hast despised? go
out, I pray now, and fight with them.
07-10:8 And
that year they vexed and oppressed the children of Israel: eighteen years, all
the children of Israel that were on
the other side Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.
07-10:18 And
the people and princes of Gilead said
one to another, What man is he that will begin to fight against the
children of Ammon? he shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.
07-13:17 And
Manoah said unto the angel of the LORD, What is thy name, that when thy sayings come
to pass we may do thee honour?
07-13:18 And
the angel of the LORD said unto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, seeing
it is secret?
07-14:3 Then
his father and his mother said unto him, Is there never a woman among the daughters of thy
brethren, or among all my people, that thou goest to take a wife of the
uncircumcised Philistines? And Samson said unto his father, Get her for me; for
she pleaseth me well.
07-14:15 And
it came to pass on the seventh day, that they said unto Samson’s wife, Entice
thy husband, that he may declare unto us the riddle, lest we burn thee and thy
father’s house with fire: have ye called us to take that we have? is it not
so?
07-14:18 And
the men of the city said unto him on the seventh day before the sun went down,
What is sweeter
than honey? and what is stronger than a lion? And he said unto them, If
ye had not plowed with my heifer, ye had not found out my riddle.
07-15:2 And
her father said, I verily thought that thou hadst utterly hated her; therefore
I gave her to thy companion: is not her younger sister fairer than she? take
her, I pray thee, instead of her.
07-15:11 Then
three thousand men of Judah went to the top of the rock Etam, and said to
Samson, Knowest thou not that the Philistines are rulers over us? what is this that
thou hast done unto us? And he said unto them, As they did unto me, so have
I done unto them.
07-15:19 But
God clave an hollow place that was in
the jaw, and there came water thereout; and when he had drunk, his spirit came
again, and he revived: wherefore he called the name thereof Enhakkore, which is in
Lehi unto this day.
07-16:2 And it was told the Gazites, saying,
Samson is come hither. And they compassed him in, and laid wait for him all night
in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night, saying, In the morning,
when it is day, we shall kill him.
07-16:3 And
Samson lay till midnight, and arose at midnight, and took the doors of the gate
of the city, and the two posts, and went away with them, bar and all, and put them upon his shoulders, and carried
them up to the top of an hill that is before Hebron.
07-16:9 Now
there were men lying in wait, abiding
with her in the chamber. And she said unto him, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he brake the
withs, as a thread of tow is broken when it
toucheth the fire. So his strength was not known.
07-16:15 And
she said unto him, How canst thou say, I love thee, when thine heart is not
with me? thou hast mocked me these three times, and hast not told me wherein
thy great strength lieth.
07-17:2 And
he said unto his mother, The eleven hundred shekels
of silver that were taken from thee, about which thou cursedst, and spakest
of also in mine ears, behold, the silver is with me; I took it. And his mother said,
Blessed be thou of the LORD, my son.
07-18:6 And
the priest said unto them, Go in peace: before the LORD is your way wherein ye go.
07-18:9 And
they said, Arise, that we may go up against them: for we have seen the land,
and, behold, it is
very good: and are ye still? be
not slothful to go, and to enter to
possess the land.
07-18:10 When
ye go, ye shall come unto a people secure, and to a large land: for God hath
given it into your hands; a place where there
is no want of any thing that is in the
earth.
07-18:12 And
they went up, and pitched in Kirjathjearim, in Judah: wherefore they called
that place Mahanehdan unto this day: behold, it is behind Kirjathjearim.
07-18:14 Then
answered the five men that went to spy out the country of Laish, and said unto
their brethren, Do ye know that there is in
these houses an ephod, and teraphim, and a graven image, and a molten image?
now therefore consider what ye have to do.
07-18:19 And
they said unto him, Hold thy peace, lay thine hand upon thy mouth, and go with
us, and be to us a father and a priest: is it better for thee to be a priest unto the
house of one man, or that thou be a priest unto a tribe and a family in Israel?
07-18:24 And
he said, Ye have taken away my gods which I made, and the priest, and ye are
gone away: and what have I more? and what is this that
ye say unto me, What aileth thee?
07-19:10 But
the man would not tarry that night, but he rose up and departed, and came over
against Jebus, which is Jerusalem; and there were with him two asses saddled, his concubine also was with him.
07-19:12 And
his master said unto him, We will not turn aside hither into the city of a
stranger, that is
not of the children of Israel; we will pass over to Gibeah.
07-19:18 And
he said unto him, We are passing from
Bethlehemjudah toward the side of mount Ephraim; from thence am I: and I went to Bethlehemjudah, but
I am now going to the house of the
LORD; and there is
no man that receiveth me to house.
07-19:19 Yet
there is both straw and provender for our asses;
and there is bread and wine also for me, and for
thy handmaid, and for the young man which
is with thy servants: there is no want of any thing.
07-19:23 And
the man, the master of the house, went out unto them, and said unto them, Nay,
my brethren, nay, I pray you, do not so wickedly; seeing that this man is come into mine house, do not this folly.
07-19:24 Behold,
here is my
daughter a maiden, and his concubine; them I will bring out now, and humble ye
them, and do with them what seemeth good unto you: but unto this man do not so
vile a thing.
07-20:5 And
the men of Gibeah rose against me, and beset the house round about upon me by
night, and thought to have slain me:
and my concubine have they forced, that she is
dead.
07-20:12 And
the tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, What
wickedness is
this that is done among you?
07-21:3 And
said, O LORD God of Israel, why is this come to
pass in Israel, that there should be to day one tribe lacking in Israel?
07-21:5 And
the children of Israel said, Who is there among all the tribes of Israel that came
not up with the congregation unto the LORD? For they had made a great oath
concerning him that came not up to the LORD to Mizpeh, saying, He shall surely
be put to death.
07-21:6 And
the children of Israel repented them for Benjamin their brother, and said,
There is one tribe cut off from Israel this day.
07-21:8 And
they said, What one is there of the tribes of Israel that came not up
to Mizpeh to the LORD? And, behold, there came none to the camp from
Jabeshgilead to the assembly.
07-21:11 And
this is the
thing that ye shall do, Ye shall utterly destroy every male, and every woman
that hath lain by man.
07-21:12 And
they found among the inhabitants of Jabeshgilead four hundred young virgins,
that had known no man by lying with any male: and they brought them unto the
camp to Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.
07-21:19 Then
they said, Behold, there is a feast of the LORD in Shiloh yearly in a place which is on the north side of Bethel, on
the east side of the highway that goeth up from Bethel to Shechem, and on the south
of Lebonah.
08-RUTH
08-1:13 Would
ye tarry for them till they were grown? would ye stay for them from having
husbands? nay, my daughters; for it grieveth me much for your sakes that the
hand of the LORD is gone out against me.
08-1:15 And
she said, Behold, thy sister in law is gone back
unto her people, and unto her gods: return thou after thy sister in law.
08-1:19 So
they two went until they came to Bethlehem. And it came to pass, when they were
come to Bethlehem, that all the city was moved about them, and they said, Is this
Naomi?
08-2:5 Then
said Boaz unto his servant that was set over the reapers, Whose damsel is this?
08-2:6 And
the servant that was set over the reapers answered and said, It is the Moabitish
damsel that came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab:
08-2:19 And
her mother in law said unto her, Where hast thou gleaned to day? and where
wroughtest thou? blessed be he that did take knowledge of thee. And she shewed her
mother in law with whom she had wrought, and said, The man’s name with whom I
wrought to day is
Boaz.
08-2:20 And
Naomi said unto her daughter in law, Blessed be he of the LORD, who hath not left off his kindness to the living
and to the dead. And Naomi said unto her, The man is near of kin unto us, one of our
next kinsmen.
08-2:22 And
Naomi said unto Ruth her daughter in law, It
is good, my daughter, that thou go out with
his maidens, that they meet thee not in any other field.
08-3:2 And
now is not
Boaz of our kindred, with whose maidens thou wast? Behold, he winnoweth barley
to night in the threshingfloor.
08-3:12 And
now it is true that I am thy near kinsman: howbeit there is
a kinsman nearer than I.
08-4:3 And
he said unto the kinsman, Naomi, that is come
again out of the country of Moab, selleth a parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech’s:
08-4:4 And
I thought to advertise thee, saying, Buy it
before the inhabitants, and before the elders of my people. If thou wilt
redeem it, redeem it: but if thou wilt not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know: for there is none
to redeem it beside thee; and I am after thee. And he said, I will
redeem it.
08-4:11 And
all the people that were in the gate,
and the elders, said, We are witnesses.
The LORD make the woman that is come into thine
house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did build the house of Israel: and
do thou worthily in Ephratah, and be famous in Bethlehem:
08-4:15 And
he shall be unto thee a restorer of thy life,
and a nourisher of thine old age: for thy daughter in law, which loveth thee,
which is better to thee than seven sons, hath
borne him.
08-4:17 And
the women her neighbours gave it a name, saying, There is
a son born to Naomi; and they called his name Obed: he is the father of Jesse, the father
of David.
09-1 SAMUEL
09-1:8 Then
said Elkanah her husband to her, Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou
not? and why is thy heart grieved? am not I better to thee than ten sons?
09-2:1 And
Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in the LORD, mine horn is exalted in the LORD: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in
thy salvation.
09-2:2 There is none
holy as the LORD: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.
09-2:3 Talk
no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy
come out of your mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are
weighed.
09-2:5 They that were full have hired out
themselves for bread; and they that were hungry
ceased: so that the barren hath born seven; and she that hath many children is waxed feeble.
09-2:20 And
Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, The LORD give thee seed of this
woman for the loan which is lent to the LORD.
And they went unto their own home.
09-2:24 Nay,
my sons; for it is
no good report that I hear: ye make the Lord’s people to transgress.
09-2:35 And
I will raise me up a faithful priest, that
shall do according to that which is in
mine heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk
before mine anointed for ever.
09-2:36 And
it shall come to pass, that every one
that is left in thine house shall come and crouch to him for a piece of silver
and a morsel of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the
priests’ offices, that I may eat a piece of bread.
09-3:17 And
he said, What is
the thing that the LORD hath said
unto thee? I pray thee hide it not
from me: God do so to thee, and more also, if thou hide any thing from me of all the things that he said unto thee.
09-3:18
