Then SolomonH8010 assembledH6950 the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and all the headsH7218 of the tribesH4294, the chiefH5387 of the fathersH1 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, unto kingH4428 SolomonH8010 in JerusalemH3389, that they might bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 out of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, which is ZionH6726. {chief: Heb. princes}
And all the menH376 of IsraelH3478 assembledH6950 themselves unto kingH4428 SolomonH8010 at the feastH2282 in the monthH3391 EthanimH388, which is the seventhH7637 monthH2320.
And all the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 cameH935, and the priestsH3548 took upH5375 the arkH727.
And they brought upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and all the holyH6944 vesselsH3627 that were in the tabernacleH168, even those did the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 bring upH5927.
And kingH4428 SolomonH8010, and all the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478, that were assembledH3259 unto him, were with him beforeH6440 the arkH727, sacrificingH2076 sheepH6629 and oxenH1241, that could not be toldH5608 nor numberedH4487 for multitudeH7230.
And the priestsH3548 brought inH935 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 unto his placeH4725, into the oracleH1687 of the houseH1004, to the mostH6944 holyH6944 place, even under the wingsH3671 of the cherubimsH3742.
For the cherubimsH3742 spread forthH6566 their two wingsH3671 over the placeH4725 of the arkH727, and the cherubimsH3742 coveredH5526 the arkH727 and the stavesH905 thereof aboveH4605.
And they drew outH748 the stavesH905, that the endsH7218 of the stavesH905 were seen outH7200 in the holyH6944 place beforeH6440 the oracleH1687, and they were not seenH7200 withoutH2351: and there they are unto this dayH3117. {ends: Heb. heads} {holy…: or, ark}
There was nothing in the arkH727 saveH7535 the twoH8147 tablesH3871 of stoneH68, which MosesH4872 putH3240 there at HorebH2722, when the LORDH3068 madeH3772 a covenant with the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, when they came outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714. {when the: or, where the}
And it came to pass, when the priestsH3548 were come outH3318 of the holyH6944 place, that the cloudH6051 filledH4390 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068,
So that the priestsH3548 couldH3201 not standH5975 to ministerH8334 becauseH6440 of the cloudH6051: for the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 had filledH4390 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
Then spakeH559 SolomonH8010, The LORDH3068 saidH559 that he would dwellH7931 in the thick darknessH6205.
I have surelyH1129 builtH1129 thee an houseH1004 to dwell inH2073, a settled placeH4349 for thee to abide inH3427 for everH5769.
And the kingH4428 turnedH5437 his faceH6440 aboutH5437, and blessedH1288 all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478: (and all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478 stoodH5975;)
And he saidH559, BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, which spakeH1696 with his mouthH6310 unto DavidH1732 my fatherH1, and hath with his handH3027 fulfilledH4390 it, sayingH559,
Since the dayH3117 that I brought forthH3318 my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714, I choseH977 no cityH5892 out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to buildH1129 an houseH1004, that my nameH8034 might be therein; but I choseH977 DavidH1732 to be over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.
And it was in the heartH3824 of DavidH1732 my fatherH1 to buildH1129 an houseH1004 for the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto DavidH1732 my fatherH1, WhereasH3282+H834 it was in thine heartH3824 to buildH1129 an houseH1004 unto my nameH8034, thou didst wellH2895 that it was in thine heartH3824.
NeverthelessH7535 thou shalt not buildH1129 the houseH1004; but thy sonH1121 that shall come forth outH3318 of thy loinsH2504, he shall buildH1129 the houseH1004 unto my nameH8034.
And the LORDH3068 hath performedH6965 his wordH1697 that he spakeH1696, and I am risen upH6965 in the room of DavidH1732 my fatherH1, and sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478, as the LORDH3068 promisedH1696, and have builtH1129 an houseH1004 for the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
And I have setH7760 there a placeH4725 for the arkH727, wherein is the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, which he madeH3772 with our fathersH1, when he brought them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
And SolomonH8010 stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068 in the presence ofH5048 all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478, and spread forthH6566 his handsH3709 toward heavenH8064:
And he saidH559, LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, there is no GodH430 like thee, in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, or on earthH776 beneath, who keepestH8104 covenantH1285 and mercyH2617 with thy servantsH5650 that walkH1980 beforeH6440 thee with all their heartH3820:
Who hast keptH8104 with thy servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH1 that thou promisedstH1696 him: thou spakestH1696 also with thy mouthH6310, and hast fulfilledH4390 it with thine handH3027, as it is this dayH3117.
Therefore now, LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, keepH8104 with thy servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH1 that thou promisedstH1696 him, sayingH559, There shall not failH3772 thee a manH376 in my sightH6440 to sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478; soH7535 that thy childrenH1121 take heedH8104 to their wayH1870, that they walkH3212 beforeH6440 me as thou hast walkedH1980 beforeH6440 me. {fail…: Heb. be cut off unto thee a man from my sight} {so that: Heb. only if}
And now, O GodH430 of IsraelH3478, let thy wordH1697, I pray thee, be verifiedH539, which thou spakestH1696 unto thy servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH1.
But will GodH430 indeedH552 dwellH3427 on the earthH776? behold, the heavenH8064 and heavenH8064 of heavensH8064 cannot containH3557 thee; how much lessH637 this houseH1004 that I have buildedH1129?
Yet have thou respectH6437 unto the prayerH8605 of thy servantH5650, and to his supplicationH8467, O LORDH3068 my GodH430, to hearkenH8085 unto the cryH7440 and to the prayerH8605, which thy servantH5650 prayethH6419 beforeH6440 thee to dayH3117:
That thine eyesH5869 may be openH6605 toward this houseH1004 nightH3915 and dayH3117, even toward the placeH4725 of which thou hast saidH559, My nameH8034 shall be there: that thou mayest hearkenH8085 unto the prayerH8605 which thy servantH5650 shall makeH6419 toward this placeH4725. {toward this place: or, in this place}
And hearkenH8085 thou to the supplicationH8467 of thy servantH5650, and of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, when they shall prayH6419 toward this placeH4725: and hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4725: and when thou hearestH8085, forgiveH5545. {toward this place: or, in this place}
If any manH376 trespassH2398 against his neighbourH7453, and an oathH423 be laidH5375 upon him to cause him to swearH422, and the oathH423 comeH935 beforeH6440 thine altarH4196 in this houseH1004: {and an oath…: Heb. and he require an oath of him}
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064, and doH6213, and judgeH8199 thy servantsH5650, condemningH7561 the wickedH7563, to bringH5414 his wayH1870 upon his headH7218; and justifyingH6663 the righteousH6662, to giveH5414 him according to his righteousnessH6666.
When thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 be smitten downH5062 beforeH6440 the enemyH341, because they have sinnedH2398 against thee, and shall turn againH7725 to thee, and confessH3034 thy nameH8034, and prayH6419, and make supplicationH2603 unto thee in this houseH1004: {in: or, toward}
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064, and forgiveH5545 the sinH2403 of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and bring them againH7725 unto the landH127 which thou gavestH5414 unto their fathersH1.
When heavenH8064 is shut upH6113, and there is no rainH4306, because they have sinnedH2398 against thee; if they prayH6419 toward this placeH4725, and confessH3034 thy nameH8034, and turnH7725 from their sinH2403, when thou afflictestH6031 them:
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064, and forgiveH5545 the sinH2403 of thy servantsH5650, and of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, that thou teachH3384 them the goodH2896 wayH1870 wherein they should walkH3212, and giveH5414 rainH4306 upon thy landH776, which thou hast givenH5414 to thy peopleH5971 for an inheritanceH5159.
If there be in the landH776 famineH7458, if there be pestilenceH1698, blastingH7711, mildewH3420, locustH697, or if there be caterpillerH2625; if their enemyH341 besiegeH6887 them in the landH776 of their citiesH8179; whatsoever plagueH5061, whatsoever sicknessH4245 there be; {cities: or, jurisdiction}
What prayerH8605 and supplicationH8467 soever be made by any manH120, or by all thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, which shall knowH3045 every manH376 the plagueH5061 of his own heartH3824, and spread forthH6566 his handsH3709 toward this houseH1004:
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4349, and forgiveH5545, and doH6213, and giveH5414 to every manH376 according to his waysH1870, whose heartH3824 thou knowestH3045; (for thou, even thou only, knowestH3045 the heartsH3824 of all the childrenH1121 of menH120;)
That they may fearH3372 thee all the daysH3117 that they liveH2416 inH6440 the landH127 which thou gavestH5414 unto our fathersH1.
Moreover concerning a strangerH5237, that is not of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, but cometh outH935 of a farH7350 countryH776 forH4616 thy name'sH8034 sake;
(For they shall hearH8085 of thy greatH1419 nameH8034, and of thy strongH2389 handH3027, and of thy stretched outH5186 armH2220;) when he shall comeH935 and prayH6419 toward this houseH1004;
HearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4349, and doH6213 according to all that the strangerH5237 callethH7121 to thee for: that all peopleH5971 of the earthH776 may knowH3045 thy nameH8034, to fearH3372 thee, as do thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478; and that they may knowH3045 that this houseH1004, which I have buildedH1129, is calledH7121 by thy nameH8034. {this…: Heb. thy name is called upon this house}
If thy peopleH5971 go outH3318 to battleH4421 against their enemyH341, whithersoeverH1870 thou shalt sendH7971 them, and shall prayH6419 unto the LORDH3068 towardH1870 the cityH5892 which thou hast chosenH977, and toward the houseH1004 that I have builtH1129 for thy nameH8034: {toward the city: Heb. the way of the city}
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 their prayerH8605 and their supplicationH8467, and maintainH6213 their causeH4941. {cause: or, right}
If they sinH2398 against thee, (for there is no manH120 that sinnethH2398 not,) and thou be angryH599 with them, and deliverH5414 them to the enemyH341, so that they carry them awayH7617 captivesH7617 untoH6440 the landH776 of the enemyH341, farH7350 or nearH7138;
Yet if they shall bethinkH7725 themselves in the landH776 whither they were carried captivesH7617, and repentH7725+H3820, and make supplicationH2603 unto thee in the landH776 of them that carried them captivesH7617, sayingH559, We have sinnedH2398, and have done perverselyH5753, we have committed wickednessH7561; {bethink…: Heb. bring back to their heart}
And so returnH7725 unto thee with all their heartH3824, and with all their soulH5315, in the landH776 of their enemiesH341, which led them away captiveH7617, and prayH6419 unto thee towardH1870 their landH776, which thou gavestH5414 unto their fathersH1, the cityH5892 which thou hast chosenH977, and the houseH1004 which I have builtH1129 for thy nameH8034:
Then hearH8085 thou their prayerH8605 and their supplicationH8467 in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4349, and maintainH6213 their causeH4941, {cause: or, right}
And forgiveH5545 thy peopleH5971 that have sinnedH2398 against thee, and all their transgressionsH6588 wherein they have transgressedH6586 against thee, and giveH5414 them compassionH7356 beforeH6440 them who carried them captiveH7617, that they may have compassionH7355 on them:
For they be thy peopleH5971, and thine inheritanceH5159, which thou broughtest forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714, from the midstH8432 of the furnaceH3564 of ironH1270:
That thine eyesH5869 may be openH6605 unto the supplicationH8467 of thy servantH5650, and unto the supplicationH8467 of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, to hearkenH8085 unto them in all that they callH7121 for unto thee.
For thou didst separateH914 them from among all the peopleH5971 of the earthH776, to be thine inheritanceH5159, as thou spakestH1696 by the handH3027 of MosesH4872 thy servantH5650, when thou broughtestH3318 our fathersH1 out of EgyptH4714, O LordH136 GODH3069.
And it was so, that when SolomonH8010 had made an endH3615 of prayingH6419 all this prayerH8605 and supplicationH8467 unto the LORDH3068, he aroseH6965 from beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068, from kneelingH3766 on his kneesH1290 with his handsH3709 spread upH6566 to heavenH8064.
And he stoodH5975, and blessedH1288 all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, sayingH559,
BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068, that hath givenH5414 restH4496 unto his peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, according to all that he promisedH1696: there hath not failedH5307 oneH259 wordH1697 of all his goodH2896 promiseH1697, which he promisedH1696 by the handH3027 of MosesH4872 his servantH5650. {failed: Heb. fallen}
The LORDH3068 our GodH430 be with us, as he was with our fathersH1: let him not leaveH5800 us, nor forsakeH5203 us:
That he may inclineH5186 our heartsH3824 unto him, to walkH3212 in all his waysH1870, and to keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687, and his statutesH2706, and his judgmentsH4941, which he commandedH6680 our fathersH1.
And let these my wordsH1697, wherewith I have made supplicationH2603 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, be nighH7138 unto the LORDH3068 our GodH430 dayH3119 and nightH3915, that he maintainH6213 the causeH4941 of his servantH5650, and the causeH4941 of his peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 at all timesH3117+H3117, as the matterH1697 shall require: {at all…: Heb. the thing of a day in his day}
That all the peopleH5971 of the earthH776 may knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 is GodH430, and that there is none else.
Let your heartH3824 therefore be perfectH8003 with the LORDH3068 our GodH430, to walkH3212 in his statutesH2706, and to keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687, as at this dayH3117.
And the kingH4428, and all IsraelH3478 with him, offeredH2076 sacrificeH2077 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
And SolomonH8010 offeredH2076 a sacrificeH2077 of peace offeringsH8002, which he offeredH2076 unto the LORDH3068, twoH8147 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 oxenH1241, and an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 sheepH6629. So the kingH4428 and all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 dedicatedH2596 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
The same dayH3117 did the kingH4428 hallowH6942 the middleH8432 of the courtH2691 that was beforeH6440 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068: for there he offeredH6213 burnt offeringsH5930, and meat offeringsH4503, and the fatH2459 of the peace offeringsH8002: because the brasenH5178 altarH4196 that was beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 was too littleH6996 to receiveH3557 the burnt offeringsH5930, and meat offeringsH4503, and the fatH2459 of the peace offeringsH8002.
And at that timeH6256 SolomonH8010 heldH6213 a feastH2282, and all IsraelH3478 with him, a greatH1419 congregationH6951, from the enteringH935 in of HamathH2574 unto the riverH5158 of EgyptH4714, beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 our GodH430, sevenH7651 daysH3117 and sevenH7651 daysH3117, even fourteenH702+H6240 daysH3117.
On the eighthH8066 dayH3117 he sentH7971 the peopleH5971 awayH7971: and they blessedH1288 the kingH4428, and wentH3212 unto their tentsH168 joyfulH8056 and gladH2896 of heartH3820 for all the goodnessH2896 that the LORDH3068 had doneH6213 for DavidH1732 his servantH5650, and for IsraelH3478 his peopleH5971. {blessed: or, thanked}

When thou goest outH3318 to battleH4421 against thine enemiesH341, and seestH7200 horsesH5483, and chariotsH7393, and a peopleH5971 moreH7227 than thou, be not afraidH3372 of them: for the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 is with thee, which brought thee upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
And it shall be, when ye are come nighH7126 unto the battleH4421, that the priestH3548 shall approachH5066 and speakH1696 unto the peopleH5971,
And shall sayH559 unto them, HearH8085, O IsraelH3478, ye approachH7131 this dayH3117 unto battleH4421 against your enemiesH341: let not your heartsH3824 faintH7401, fearH3372 not, and do not trembleH2648, neither be ye terrifiedH6206 becauseH6440 of them; {faint: Heb. be tender} {tremble: Heb. make haste}
For the LORDH3068 your GodH430 is he that goethH1980 with you, to fightH3898 for you against your enemiesH341, to saveH3467 you.
And the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto MosesH4872, sayingH559,
AvengeH5358+H5360 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 of the MidianitesH4084: afterwardH310 shalt thou be gatheredH622 unto thy peopleH5971.
And MosesH4872 spakeH1696 unto the peopleH5971, sayingH559, ArmH2502 someH582 of yourselves unto the warH6635, and let them go against the MidianitesH4080, and avengeH5414+H5360 the LORDH3068 of MidianH4080.
Of every tribeH4294+H4294 a thousandH505+H505, throughout all the tribesH4294 of IsraelH3478, shall ye sendH7971 to the warH6635. {Of…: Heb. A thousand of a tribe, a thousand of a tribe}
So there were deliveredH4560 out of the thousandsH505 of IsraelH3478, a thousandH505 of every tribeH4294, twelveH8147+H6240 thousandH505 armedH2502 for warH6635.
And MosesH4872 sentH7971 them to the warH6635, a thousandH505 of every tribeH4294, them and PhinehasH6372 the sonH1121 of EleazarH499 the priestH3548, to the warH6635, with the holyH6944 instrumentsH3627, and the trumpetsH2689 to blowH8643 in his handH3027.
And they warredH6633 against the MidianitesH4080, as the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 MosesH4872; and they slewH2026 all the malesH2145.
And they slewH2026 the kingsH4428 of MidianH4080, besideH5921 the rest of them that were slainH2491; namely, EviH189, and RekemH7552, and ZurH6698, and HurH2354, and RebaH7254, fiveH2568 kingsH4428 of MidianH4080: BalaamH1109 also the sonH1121 of BeorH1160 they slewH2026 with the swordH2719.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 took all the womenH802 of MidianH4080 captivesH7617, and their little onesH2945, and took the spoilH962 of all their cattleH929, and all their flocksH4735, and all their goodsH2428.
And they burntH8313 all their citiesH5892 wherein they dweltH4186, and all their goodly castlesH2918, with fireH784.
And they tookH3947 all the spoilH7998, and all the preyH4455, both of menH120 and of beastsH929.
And they broughtH935 the captivesH7628, and the preyH4455, and the spoilH7998, unto MosesH4872, and EleazarH499 the priestH3548, and unto the congregationH5712 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, unto the campH4264 at the plainsH6160 of MoabH4124, which are by JordanH3383 near JerichoH3405.
And there came outH3318 against them ZerahH2226 the EthiopianH3569 with an hostH2428 of a thousandH505 thousandH505, and threeH7969 hundredH3967 chariotsH4818; and cameH935 unto MareshahH4762.
Then AsaH609 went outH3318 againstH6440 him, and they set the battleH4421 in arrayH6186 in the valleyH1516 of ZephathahH6859 at MareshahH4762.
And AsaH609 criedH7121 unto the LORDH3068 his GodH430, and saidH559, LORDH3068, it is nothing with thee to helpH5826, whetherH996 with manyH7227, or with them that have no powerH3581: helpH5826 us, O LORDH3068 our GodH430; for we restH8172 on thee, and in thy nameH8034 we goH935 against this multitudeH1995. O LORDH3068, thou art our GodH430; let not manH582 prevailH6113 against thee. {man: or, mortal man}
So the LORDH3068 smoteH5062 the EthiopiansH3569 beforeH6440 AsaH609, and beforeH6440 JudahH3063; and the EthiopiansH3569 fledH5127.
Since the dayH3117 that I brought forthH3318 my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714, I choseH977 no cityH5892 out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to buildH1129 an houseH1004, that my nameH8034 might be therein; but I choseH977 DavidH1732 to be over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.
The LORDH3068 thy GodH430, he will go overH5674 beforeH6440 thee, and he will destroyH8045 these nationsH1471 from beforeH6440 thee, and thou shalt possessH3423 them: and JoshuaH3091, he shall go overH5674 beforeH6440 thee, as the LORDH3068 hath saidH1696.
And the LORDH3068 shall doH6213 unto them as he didH6213 to SihonH5511 and to OgH5747, kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH567, and unto the landH776 of them, whom he destroyedH8045.
And the LORDH3068 shall give them upH5414 before your faceH6440, that ye may doH6213 unto them according unto all the commandmentsH4687 which I have commandedH6680 you.
Be strongH2388 and of a good courageH553, fearH3372 not, nor be afraidH6206 of themH6440: for the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, he it is that doth goH1980 with thee; he will not failH7503 thee, nor forsakeH5800 thee.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, SeeH7200, I have givenH5414 into thine handH3027 JerichoH3405, and the kingH4428 thereof, and the mighty menH1368 of valourH2428.
And ye shall compassH5437 the cityH5892, all ye menH582 of warH4421, and go round aboutH5362 the cityH5892 onceH6471+H259. Thus shalt thou doH6213 sixH8337 daysH3117.
And sevenH7651 priestsH3548 shall bearH5375 beforeH6440 the arkH727 sevenH7651 trumpetsH7782 of rams' hornsH3104: and the seventhH7637 dayH3117 ye shall compassH5437 the cityH5892 sevenH7651 timesH6471, and the priestsH3548 shall blowH8628 with the trumpetsH7782.
And it shall come to pass, that when they make a longH4900 blast with the ram'sH3104 hornH7161, and when ye hearH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, all the peopleH5971 shall shoutH7321 with a greatH1419 shoutH8643; and the wallH2346 of the cityH5892 shall fall downH5307 flatH8478, and the peopleH5971 shall ascend upH5927 every manH376 straight before him. {flat: Heb. under it}
And it came to pass, when the captainsH8269 of the chariotsH7393 sawH7200 JehoshaphatH3092, that they saidH559, It is the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478. Therefore they compassed aboutH5437 him to fightH3898: but JehoshaphatH3092 cried outH2199, and the LORDH3068 helpedH5826 him; and GodH430 movedH5496 them to depart from him.
Moreover he refusedH3988 the tabernacleH168 of JosephH3130, and choseH977 not the tribeH7626 of EphraimH669:
But choseH977 the tribeH7626 of JudahH3063, the mountH2022 ZionH6726 which he lovedH157.
And he builtH1129 his sanctuaryH4720 like highH7311 palaces, like the earthH776 which he hath establishedH3245 for everH5769. {established: Heb. founded}
MosesH4872 my servantH5650 is deadH4191; now therefore ariseH6965, go overH5674 this JordanH3383, thou, and all this peopleH5971, unto the landH776 which I do giveH5414 to them, even to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
Every placeH4725 that the soleH3709 of your footH7272 shall tread uponH1869, that have I givenH5414 unto you, as I saidH1696 unto MosesH4872.
From the wildernessH4057 and this LebanonH3844 even unto the greatH1419 riverH5104, the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578, all the landH776 of the HittitesH2850, and unto the greatH1419 seaH3220 toward the going downH3996 of the sunH8121, shall be your coastH1366.
There shall not any manH376 be able to standH3320 beforeH6440 thee all the daysH3117 of thy lifeH2416: as I was with MosesH4872, so I will be with thee: I will not failH7503 thee, nor forsakeH5800 thee.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, FearH3372 not, neither be thou dismayedH2865: takeH3947 all the peopleH5971 of warH4421 with thee, and ariseH6965, go upH5927 to AiH5857: seeH7200, I have givenH5414 into thy handH3027 the kingH4428 of AiH5857, and his peopleH5971, and his cityH5892, and his landH776:
And saidH559, O LORDH3068 GodH430 of our fathersH1, art not thou GodH430 in heavenH8064? and rulestH4910 not thou over all the kingdomsH4467 of the heathenH1471? and in thine handH3027 is there not powerH3581 and mightH1369, so that none is able to withstandH3320 thee?
Art not thou our GodH430, who didst drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of this landH776 beforeH6440 thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and gavestH5414 it to the seedH2233 of AbrahamH85 thy friendH157 for everH5769? {who: Heb. thou}
And they dweltH3427 therein, and have builtH1129 thee a sanctuaryH4720 therein for thy nameH8034, sayingH559,
If, when evilH7451 comethH935 upon us, as the swordH2719, judgmentH8196, or pestilenceH1698, or famineH7458, we standH5975 beforeH6440 this houseH1004, and in thy presenceH6440, (for thy nameH8034 is in this houseH1004,) and cryH2199 unto thee in our afflictionH6869, then thou wilt hearH8085 and helpH3467.
And now, behold, the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 and MoabH4124 and mountH2022 SeirH8165, whom thou wouldest not letH5414 IsraelH3478 invadeH935, when they came outH935 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, but they turnedH5493 from them, and destroyedH8045 them not;
Behold, I say, how they rewardH1580 us, to comeH935 to cast us outH1644 of thy possessionH3425, which thou hast given us to inheritH3423.
O our GodH430, wilt thou not judgeH8199 them? for we have no mightH3581 againstH6440 this greatH7227 companyH1995 that comethH935 against us; neither knowH3045 weH587 what to doH6213: but our eyesH5869 are upon thee.
And all JudahH3063 stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, withH1571 their little onesH2945, their wivesH802, and their childrenH1121.
If thy peopleH5971 go outH3318 to warH4421 against their enemiesH341 by the wayH1870 that thou shalt sendH7971 them, and they prayH6419 unto thee towardH1870 this cityH5892 which thou hast chosenH977, and the houseH1004 which I have builtH1129 for thy nameH8034;
And thou shalt doH6213 to AiH5857 and her kingH4428 as thou didstH6213 unto JerichoH3405 and her kingH4428: only the spoilH7998 thereof, and the cattleH929 thereof, shall ye take for a preyH962 unto yourselves: layH7760 thee an ambushH693 for the cityH5892 behindH310 it.
And for this cause HezekiahH3169 the kingH4428, and the prophetH5030 IsaiahH3470 the sonH1121 of AmozH531, prayedH6419 and criedH2199 to heavenH8064.
Now afterH310 the deathH4194 of JoshuaH3091 it came to pass, that the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 askedH7592 the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Who shall go upH5927 for us against the CanaanitesH3669 firstH8462, to fightH3898 against them?
Now therefore, O our GodH430, hearH8085 the prayerH8605 of thy servantH5650, and his supplicationsH8469, and cause thy faceH6440 to shineH215 upon thy sanctuaryH4720 that is desolateH8076, for the Lord'sH136 sake.
O my GodH430, inclineH5186 thine earH241, and hearH8085; openH6491 thine eyesH5869, and beholdH7200 our desolationsH8074, and the cityH5892 which is calledH7121 by thy nameH8034: for we do not presentH5307 our supplicationsH8469 beforeH6440 thee for our righteousnessesH6666, but for thy greatH7227 merciesH7356. {which…: Heb. whereupon thy name is called} {present: Heb. cause to fall}
O LordH136, hearH8085; O LordH136, forgiveH5545; O LordH136, hearkenH7181 and doH6213; deferH309 notH408, for thine own sake, O my GodH430: for thy cityH5892 and thy peopleH5971 are calledH7121 by thy nameH8034.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, JudahH3063 shall go upH5927: behold, I have deliveredH5414 the landH776 into his handH3027.
And she sentH7971 and calledH7121 BarakH1301 the sonH1121 of AbinoamH42 out of KedeshnaphtaliH6943, and saidH559 unto him, Hath not the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 commandedH6680, saying, GoH3212 and drawH4900 toward mountH2022 TaborH8396, and takeH3947 with thee tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376 of the childrenH1121 of NaphtaliH5321 and of the childrenH1121 of ZebulunH2074?
And the LORDH3068 lookedH6437 upon him, and saidH559, GoH3212 in this thy mightH3581, and thou shalt saveH3467 IsraelH3478 from the handH3709 of the MidianitesH4080: have not I sentH7971 thee?
Now goH3212 and smiteH5221 AmalekH6002, and utterly destroyH2763 all that they have, and spareH2550 them not; but slayH4191 both manH376 and womanH802, infantH5768 and sucklingH3243, oxH7794 and sheepH7716, camelH1581 and assH2543.
And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 thee on a journeyH1870, and saidH559, GoH3212 and utterly destroyH2763 the sinnersH2400 the AmalekitesH6002, and fightH3898 against them until they be consumedH3615. {they…: Heb. they consume them}
And DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 at the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Shall I pursueH7291 afterH310 this troopH1416? shall I overtakeH5381 them? And he answeredH559 him, PursueH7291: for thou shalt surelyH5381 overtakeH5381 them, and without failH5337 recoverH5337 all.
