I will standH5975 upon my watchH4931, and setH3320 me upon the towerH4692, and will watchH6822 to seeH7200 what he will sayH1696 unto me, and what I shall answerH7725 when I am reprovedH8433. {tower: Heb. fenced place} {unto me: or, in me} {when…: or, when I am argued with: Heb. upon my reproof, or, arguing}
And the LORDH3068 answeredH6030 me, and saidH559, WriteH3789 the visionH2377, and make it plainH874 upon tablesH3871, that he may runH7323 that readethH7121 it.
For the visionH2377 is yet for an appointed timeH4150, but at the endH7093 it shall speakH6315, and not lieH3576: though it tarryH4102, waitH2442 for it; because it will surelyH935 comeH935, it will not tarryH309.
Behold, his soulH5315 which is lifted upH6075 is not uprightH3474 in him: but the justH6662 shall liveH2421 by his faithH530.
Yea also, because he transgressethH898 by wineH3196, he is a proudH3093 manH1397, neither keepeth at homeH5115, who enlargethH7337 his desireH5315 as hellH7585, and is as deathH4194, and cannot be satisfiedH7646, but gatherethH622 unto him all nationsH1471, and heapethH6908 unto him all peopleH5971: {Yea…: or, How much more}
Shall not all these take upH5375 a parableH4912 against him, and a tauntingH4426 proverbH2420 against him, and sayH559, WoeH1945 to him that increasethH7235 that which is not his! how long? and to him that ladethH3513 himself with thick clayH5671! {Woe…: or, Ho, he}
Shall they not rise upH6965 suddenlyH6621 that shall biteH5391 thee, and awakeH3364 that shall vexH2111 thee, and thou shalt be for bootiesH4933 unto them?
Because thou hast spoiledH7997 manyH7227 nationsH1471, all the remnantH3499 of the peopleH5971 shall spoilH7997 thee; because of men'sH120 bloodH1818, and for the violenceH2555 of the landH776, of the cityH7151, and of all that dwellH3427 therein. {blood: Heb. bloods}
WoeH1945 to him that covetethH1214 an evilH7451 covetousnessH1215 to his houseH1004, that he may setH7760 his nestH7064 on highH4791, that he may be deliveredH5337 from the powerH3709 of evilH7451! {coveteth…: or, gaineth and evil gain} {power…: Heb. palm of the hand}
Thou hast consultedH3289 shameH1322 to thy houseH1004 by cutting offH7096 manyH7227 peopleH5971, and hast sinnedH2398 against thy soulH5315.
For the stoneH68 shall cry outH2199 of the wallH7023, and the beam outH3714 of the timberH6086 shall answerH6030 it. {beam: or, piece, or, fastening} {answer it: or, witness against it}
WoeH1945 to him that buildethH1129 a townH5892 with bloodH1818, and stablishethH3559 a cityH7151 by iniquityH5766! {blood: Heb. bloods}
Behold, is it not of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 that the peopleH5971 shall labourH3021 in the veryH1767 fireH784, and the peopleH3816 shall wearyH3286 themselves for veryH1767 vanityH7385? {for…: or, in vain?}
For the earthH776 shall be filledH4390 with the knowledgeH3045 of the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068, as the watersH4325 coverH3680 the seaH3220. {with…: or, by knowing the glory}
WoeH1945 unto him that giveth his neighbourH7453 drinkH8248, that puttestH5596 thy bottleH2573 to him, and makest him drunkenH7937 also, that thou mayest lookH5027 on their nakednessH4589!
Thou art filledH7646 with shameH7036 for gloryH3519: drinkH8354 thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncoveredH6188: the cupH3563 of the LORD'SH3068 right handH3225 shall be turnedH5437 unto thee, and shameful spewingH7022 shall be on thy gloryH3519. {with…: or, more with shame than with glory}
For the violenceH2555 of LebanonH3844 shall coverH3680 thee, and the spoilH7701 of beastsH929, which made them afraidH2865, because of men'sH120 bloodH1818, and for the violenceH2555 of the landH776, of the cityH7151, and of all that dwellH3427 therein.
What profitethH3276 the graven imageH6459 that the makerH3335 thereof hath gravenH6458 it; the molten imageH4541, and a teacherH3384 of liesH8267, that the makerH3335 of his workH3336 trustethH982 therein, to makeH6213 dumbH483 idolsH457? {maker of…: Heb. fashioner of his fashion}
WoeH1945 unto him that saithH559 to the woodH6086, AwakeH6974; to the dumbH1748 stoneH68, AriseH5782, it shall teachH3384! Behold, it is laidH8610 over with goldH2091 and silverH3701, and there is no breathH7307 at all in the midstH7130 of it.
But the LORDH3068 is in his holyH6944 templeH1964: let all the earthH776 keep silenceH2013 beforeH6440 him. {let…: Heb. be silent all the earth before him}

And LotH3876 lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869, and beheldH7200 all the plainH3603 of JordanH3383, that it was well wateredH4945 every where, beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 destroyedH7843 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, even as the gardenH1588 of the LORDH3068, like the landH776 of EgyptH4714, as thou comestH935 unto ZoarH6820.
Then LotH3876 choseH977 him all the plainH3603 of JordanH3383; and LotH3876 journeyedH5265 eastH6924: and they separated themselvesH6504 the oneH376 from the otherH251.
AbramH87 dwelledH3427 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, and LotH3876 dwelledH3427 in the citiesH5892 of the plainH3603, and pitched his tentH167 towardH5704 SodomH5467.
But the menH582 of SodomH5467 were wickedH7451 and sinnersH2400 before the LORDH3068 exceedinglyH3966.
For the wickedH7563 boastethH1984 of his heart'sH5315 desireH8378, and blessethH1288 the covetousH1214, whom the LORDH3068 abhorrethH5006. {heart's: Heb. soul's} {blesseth…: or, the covetous blesseth himself, he abhorreth the LORD}
The wickedH7563, through the prideH1363 of his countenanceH639, will not seekH1875 after God: GodH430 is not in all his thoughtsH4209. {God is…: or, all his thoughts are, There is no God}
His waysH1870 are alwaysH6256 grievousH2342; thy judgmentsH4941 are far aboveH4791 out of his sight: as for all his enemiesH6887, he puffethH6315 at them.
He hath saidH559 in his heartH3820, I shall not be movedH4131: for I shall neverH1755+H1755 be in adversityH7451. {never: Heb. unto generation and generation}
But his wifeH802 looked backH5027 from behind himH310, and she became a pillarH5333 of saltH4417.
And AbrahamH85 gat up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242 to the placeH4725 where he stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068:
And he lookedH8259 towardH6440 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, and towardH6440 all the landH776 of the plainH3603, and beheldH7200, and, lo, the smokeH7008 of the countryH776 went upH5927 as the smokeH7008 of a furnaceH3536.
And it came to pass, when GodH430 destroyedH7843 the citiesH5892 of the plainH3603, that GodH430 rememberedH2142 AbrahamH85, and sentH7971 LotH3876 out of the midstH8432 of the overthrowH2018, when he overthrewH2015 the citiesH5892 in the whichH2004 LotH3876 dweltH3427.
And LotH3876 went upH5927 out of ZoarH6820, and dweltH3427 in the mountainH2022, and his twoH8147 daughtersH1323 with him; for he fearedH3372 to dwellH3427 in ZoarH6820: and he dweltH3427 in a caveH4631, he and his twoH8147 daughtersH1323.
And the firstbornH1067 saidH559 unto the youngerH6810, Our fatherH1 is oldH2204, and there is not a manH376 in the earthH776 to come inH935 unto us after the mannerH1870 of all the earthH776:
ComeH3212, let us makeH8248 our fatherH1 drinkH8248 wineH3196, and we will lieH7901 with him, that we may preserveH2421 seedH2233 of our fatherH1.
And they madeH8248 their fatherH1 drinkH8248 wineH3196 that nightH3915: and the firstbornH1067 went inH935, and layH7901 with her fatherH1; and he perceivedH3045 not when she lay downH7901, nor when she aroseH6965.
And it came to pass on the morrowH4283, that the firstbornH1067 saidH559 unto the youngerH6810, Behold, I layH7901 yesternightH570 with my fatherH1: let us make him drinkH8248 wineH3196 this nightH3915 also; and go thou inH935, and lieH7901 with him, that we may preserveH2421 seedH2233 of our fatherH1.
And they madeH8248 their fatherH1 drinkH8248 wineH3196 thatH1931 nightH3915 also: and the youngerH6810 aroseH6965, and layH7901 with him; and he perceivedH3045 not when she lay downH7901, nor when she aroseH6965.
Thus were bothH8147 the daughtersH1323 of LotH3876 with childH2029 by their fatherH1.
And the firstbornH1067 bareH3205 a sonH1121, and calledH7121 his nameH8034 MoabH4124: the sameH1931 is the fatherH1 of the MoabitesH4124 unto this dayH3117.
And the youngerH6810, she also bareH3205 a sonH1121, and calledH7121 his nameH8034 BenammiH1151: the same is the fatherH1 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 unto this dayH3117.
Their inwardH7130 thought is, that their housesH1004 shall continue for everH5769, and their dwellingH4908 places to allH1755 generationsH1755; they callH7121 their landsH127 after their own namesH8034. {all…: Heb. generation and generation}
The graven imagesH6456 of their godsH430 shall ye burnH8313 with fireH784: thou shalt not desireH2530 the silverH3701 or goldH2091 that is on them, nor takeH3947 it unto thee, lest thou be snaredH3369 therein: for it is an abominationH8441 to the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
Lo, this is the manH1397 that madeH7760 not GodH430 his strengthH4581; but trustedH982 in the abundanceH7230 of his richesH6239, and strengthenedH5810 himself in his wickednessH1942. {wickedness: or, substance}
Neither shalt thou bringH935 an abominationH8441 into thine houseH1004, lest thou be a cursed thingH2764 like it: but thou shalt utterlyH8262 detestH8262 it, and thou shalt utterlyH8581 abhorH8581 it; for it is a cursed thingH2764.
The rich man'sH6223 wealthH1952 is his strongH5797 cityH7151, and as an highH7682 wallH2346 in his own conceitH4906.
When I sawH7200 among the spoilsH7998 aH259 goodlyH2896 BabylonishH8152 garmentH155, and two hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701, and aH259 wedgeH3956 of goldH2091 of fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 weightH4948, then I covetedH2530 them, and tookH3947 them; and, behold, they are hidH2934 in the earthH776 in the midstH8432 of my tentH168, and the silverH3701 under it. {wedge: Heb. tongue}
So JoshuaH3091 sentH7971 messengersH4397, and they ranH7323 unto the tentH168; and, behold, it was hidH2934 in his tentH168, and the silverH3701 under it.
And they tookH3947 them out of the midstH8432 of the tentH168, and broughtH935 them unto JoshuaH3091, and unto all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and laid them outH3332 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068. {laid: Heb. poured}
And JoshuaH3091, and all IsraelH3478 with him, tookH3947 AchanH5912 the sonH1121 of ZerahH2226, and the silverH3701, and the garmentH155, and the wedgeH3956 of goldH2091, and his sonsH1121, and his daughtersH1323, and his oxenH7794, and his assesH2543, and his sheepH6629, and his tentH168, and all that he had: and they broughtH5927 them unto the valleyH6010 of AchorH5911.
And JoshuaH3091 saidH559, WhyH4100 hast thou troubledH5916 us? the LORDH3068 shall troubleH5916 thee this dayH3117. And all IsraelH3478 stonedH7275 him with stonesH68, and burnedH8313 them with fireH784, after they had stonedH5619 them with stonesH68.
And they raisedH6965 over him a greatH1419 heapH1530 of stonesH68 unto this dayH3117. So the LORDH3068 turnedH7725 from the fiercenessH2740 of his angerH639. Wherefore the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 was calledH7121, The valleyH6010 of AchorH5911, unto this dayH3117. {Achor: that is, Trouble}
BeforeH6440 destructionH7667 the heartH3820 of manH376 is haughtyH1361, and beforeH6440 honourH3519 is humilityH6038.
And AhabH256 spakeH1696 unto NabothH5022, sayingH559, GiveH5414 me thy vineyardH3754, that I may have it for a gardenH1588 of herbsH3419, because it is nearH7138 untoH681 my houseH1004: and I will giveH5414 thee for it a betterH2896 vineyardH3754 than it; or, if it seem goodH2896 to theeH5869, I will giveH5414 thee the worthH4242 of it in moneyH3701. {seem…: Heb. be good in thine eyes}
And NabothH5022 saidH559 to AhabH256, The LORDH3068 forbidH2486 it me, that I should giveH5414 the inheritanceH5159 of my fathersH1 unto thee.
And AhabH256 cameH935 into his houseH1004 heavyH5620 and displeasedH2198 because of the wordH1697 which NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158 had spokenH1696 to him: for he had saidH559, I will not giveH5414 thee the inheritanceH5159 of my fathersH1. And he laid him downH7901 upon his bedH4296, and turned awayH5437 his faceH6440, and would eatH398 no breadH3899.
Because ye have saidH559, We have madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with deathH4194, and with hellH7585 are weH6213 at agreementH2374; when the overflowingH7857 scourgeH7752+H7885 shall pass throughH5674+H5674, it shall not comeH935 unto us: for we have madeH7760 liesH3577 our refugeH4268, and under falsehoodH8267 have we hidH5641 ourselves:
And thou shalt speakH1696 unto him, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Hast thou killedH7523, and also taken possessionH3423? And thou shalt speakH1696 unto him, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, In the placeH4725 where dogsH3611 lickedH3952 the bloodH1818 of NabothH5022 shall dogsH3611 lickH3952 thy bloodH1818, even thine.
And AhabH256 saidH559 to ElijahH452, Hast thou foundH4672 me, O mine enemyH341? And he answeredH559, I have foundH4672 thee: because thou hast soldH4376 thyself to workH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068.
Behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon thee, and will take awayH1197 thy posterityH310, and will cut offH3772 from AhabH256 him that pissethH8366 against the wallH7023, and him that is shut upH6113 and leftH5800 in IsraelH3478,
And will makeH5414 thine houseH1004 like the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, and like the houseH1004 of BaashaH1201 the sonH1121 of AhijahH281, for the provocationH3708 wherewith thou hast provoked me to angerH3707, and made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.
And of JezebelH348 also spakeH1696 the LORDH3068, sayingH559, The dogsH3611 shall eatH398 JezebelH348 by the wallH2426 of JezreelH3157. {wall: or, ditch}
Him that diethH4191 of AhabH256 in the cityH5892 the dogsH3611 shall eatH398; and him that diethH4191 in the fieldH7704 shall the fowlsH5775 of the airH8064 eatH398.
And thou saidstH559, I shall be a ladyH1404 for everH5769: so that thou didst not layH7760 these things to thy heartH3820, neither didst rememberH2142 the latter endH319 of it.
Therefore hearH8085 now this, thou that art given to pleasuresH5719, that dwellestH3427 carelesslyH983, that sayestH559 in thine heartH3824, I am, and none elseH657 beside me; I shall not sitH3427 as a widowH490, neither shall I knowH3045 the loss of childrenH7908:
But these twoH8147 things shall comeH935 to thee in a momentH7281 in oneH259 dayH3117, the loss of childrenH7908, and widowhoodH489: they shall comeH935 upon thee in their perfectionH8537 for the multitudeH7230 of thy sorceriesH3785, and for the greatH3966 abundanceH6109 of thine enchantmentsH2267.
But GehaziH1522, the servantH5288 of ElishaH477 the manH376 of GodH430, saidH559, Behold, my masterH113 hath sparedH2820 NaamanH5283 this SyrianH761, in not receivingH3947 at his handsH3027 that which he broughtH935: but, as the LORDH3068 livethH2416, I will runH7323 afterH310 him, and takeH3947 somewhatH3972 of him.
So GehaziH1522 followedH7291 afterH310 NaamanH5283. And when NaamanH5283 sawH7200 him runningH7323 afterH310 him, he lighted downH5307 from the chariotH4818 to meetH7125 him, and saidH559, Is all wellH7965? {Is…: Heb. Is there peace?}
And he saidH559, All is wellH7965. My masterH113 hath sentH7971 me, sayingH559, Behold, even now there be comeH935 to me from mountH2022 EphraimH669 twoH8147 young menH5288 of the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030: giveH5414 them, I pray thee, a talentH3603 of silverH3701, and twoH8147 changesH2487 of garmentsH899.
And NaamanH5283 saidH559, Be contentH2974, takeH3947 two talentsH3603. And he urgedH6555 him, and boundH6696 twoH8147 talentsH3603 of silverH3701 in twoH8147 bagsH2754, with twoH8147 changesH2487 of garmentsH899, and laidH5414 them upon twoH8147 of his servantsH5288; and they bareH5375 them beforeH6440 him.
And when he cameH935 to the towerH6076, he tookH3947 them from their handH3027, and bestowedH6485 them in the houseH1004: and he let the menH582 goH7971, and they departedH3212. {tower: or, secret place}
But he went inH935, and stoodH5975 before his masterH113. And ElishaH477 saidH559 unto him, WhenceH370 comest thou, GehaziH1522? And he saidH559, Thy servantH5650 wentH1980 no whitherH575. {no whither: Heb. not hither or thither}
And he saidH559 unto him, WentH1980 not mine heartH3820 with thee, when the manH376 turnedH2015 again from his chariotH4818 to meetH7125 thee? Is it a timeH6256 to receiveH3947 moneyH3701, and to receiveH3947 garmentsH899, and oliveyardsH2132, and vineyardsH3754, and sheepH6629, and oxenH1241, and menservantsH5650, and maidservantsH8198?
The leprosyH6883 therefore of NaamanH5283 shall cleaveH1692 unto thee, and unto thy seedH2233 for everH5769. And he went outH3318 from his presenceH6440 a leperH6879 as white as snowH7950.
Thy terriblenessH8606 hath deceivedH5377 thee, and the prideH2087 of thine heartH3820, O thou that dwellestH7931 in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, that holdestH8610 the heightH4791 of the hillH1389: though thou shouldest make thy nestH7064 as highH1361 as the eagleH5404, I will bring thee downH3381 from thence, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Because he hath oppressedH7533 and hath forsakenH5800 the poorH1800; because he hath violently taken awayH1497 an houseH1004 which he buildedH1129 not; {oppressed: Heb. crushed}
Surely he shall not feelH3045 quietnessH7961 in his bellyH990, he shall not saveH4422 of that which he desiredH2530. {feel: Heb. know}
There shall none of his meatH400 be leftH8300; therefore shall no man lookH2342 for his goodsH2898. {none…: or, be none left for his meat}
In the fulnessH4390+H4390 of his sufficiencyH5607 he shall be in straitsH3334: every handH3027 of the wickedH6001 shall comeH935 upon him. {wicked: or, troublesome}
When he is about to fillH4390 his bellyH990, God shall castH7971 the furyH2740 of his wrathH639 upon him, and shall rainH4305 it upon him while he is eatingH3894.
He shall fleeH1272 from the ironH1270 weaponH5402, and the bowH7198 of steelH5154 shall strike him throughH2498.
It is drawnH8025, and cometh outH3318 of the bodyH1465; yea, the glittering swordH1300 cometh outH1980 of his gallH4846: terrorsH367 are upon him.
All darknessH2822 shall be hidH2934 in his secret placesH6845: a fireH784 not blownH5301 shall consumeH398 him; it shall go illH3415 with him that is leftH8300 in his tabernacleH168.
The heavenH8064 shall revealH1540 his iniquityH5771; and the earthH776 shall rise upH6965 against him.
The increaseH2981 of his houseH1004 shall departH1540, and his goods shall flow awayH5064 in the dayH3117 of his wrathH639.
Though thou exaltH1361 thyself as the eagleH5404, and though thou setH7760 thy nestH7064 among the starsH3556, thence will I bring thee downH3381, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
WoeH1945 unto him that buildethH1129 his houseH1004 byH3808 unrighteousnessH6664, and his chambersH5944 by wrongH4941; that useth his neighbour'sH7453 serviceH5647 without wagesH2600, and givethH5414 him not for his workH6467;
That saithH559, I will buildH1129 me a wideH4060 houseH1004 and largeH7304 chambersH5944, and cutteth him outH7167 windowsH2474; and it is cieledH5603 with cedarH730, and paintedH4886 with vermilionH8350. {large: Heb. through-aired} {windows: or, my windows}
Shalt thou reignH4427, because thou closestH8474 thyself in cedarH730? did not thy fatherH1 eatH398 and drinkH8354, and doH6213 judgmentH4941 and justiceH6666, and then it was wellH2896 with him?
He judgedH1777 the causeH1779 of the poorH6041 and needyH34; then it was wellH2896 with him: was not this to knowH1847 me? saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
But thine eyesH5869 and thine heartH3820 are not but for thy covetousnessH1215, and for to shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818, and for oppressionH6233, and for violenceH4835, to doH6213 it. {violence: or, incursion}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 concerning JehoiakimH3079 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of JudahH3063; They shall not lamentH5594 for him, saying, AhH1945 my brotherH251! or, AhH1945 sisterH269! they shall not lamentH5594 for him, saying, AhH1945 lordH113! or, AhH1945 his gloryH1935!
He shall be buriedH6912 with the burialH6900 of an assH2543, drawnH5498 and cast forthH7993 beyondH1973 the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389.
Then I turnedH7725, and lifted upH5375 mine eyesH5869, and lookedH7200, and behold a flyingH5774 rollH4039.
And he saidH559 unto me, What seestH7200 thou? And I answeredH559, I seeH7200 a flyingH5774 rollH4039; the lengthH753 thereof is twentyH6242 cubitsH520, and the breadthH7341 thereof tenH6235 cubitsH520.
Then saidH559 he unto me, This is the curseH423 that goeth forthH3318 over the faceH6440 of the whole earthH776: for every one that stealethH1589 shall be cut offH5352 as on this side accordingH3644 to it; and every one that swearethH7650 shall be cut offH5352 as on that side accordingH3644 to it. {every one that stealeth…: or, every one of this people that stealeth holdeth himself guiltless, as it doth}
I will bring it forthH3318, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, and it shall enterH935 into the houseH1004 of the thiefH1590, and into the houseH1004 of him that swearethH7650 falselyH8267 by my nameH8034: and it shall remainH3885 in the midstH8432 of his houseH1004, and shall consumeH3615 it with the timberH6086 thereof and the stonesH68 thereof.
ForG3754 he wasG2258 numberedG2674 withG4862 usG2254, andG2532 had obtainedG2975 partG2819 of thisG5026 ministryG1248.
NowG3303+G3767 this manG3778 purchasedG2932 a fieldG5564 withG1537 the rewardG3408 of iniquityG93; andG2532 fallingG1096 headlongG4248, he burst asunderG2997 in the midstG3319, andG2532 allG3956 hisG846 bowelsG4698 gushed outG1632.
AndG2532 it wasG1096 knownG1110 unto allG3956 the dwellersG2730 at JerusalemG2419; insomuch asG5620 thatG1565 fieldG5564 is calledG2564 in theirG846 properG2398 tongueG1258, AceldamaG184, that is to sayG5123, The fieldG5564 of bloodG129.
ForG1063 it is writtenG1125 inG1722 the bookG976 of PsalmsG5568, LetG1096 hisG846 habitationG1886 beG1096 desolateG2048, andG2532 letG2077 no manG3361 dwellG2730 thereinG1722+G846: andG2532 hisG846 bishoprickG1984 letG2983 anotherG2087 takeG2983. {bishoprick: or, office, or, charge}
WhereforeG3767 of theseG5130 menG435 which have companiedG4905 with usG2254 allG3956 the timeG5550 thatG1722+G3739 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 wentG1831 inG1525 andG2532 outG1831 amongG1909 usG2248,
BeginningG756 fromG575 the baptismG908 of JohnG2491, untoG2193 that same dayG2250 thatG3739 he was taken upG353 fromG575 usG2257, mustG1163 oneG1520 be ordainedG1096 to be a witnessG3144 withG4862 usG2254 of hisG846 resurrectionG386.
AndG2532 they appointedG2476 twoG1417, JosephG2501 calledG2564 BarsabasG923, whoG3739 was surnamedG1941 JustusG2459, andG2532 MatthiasG3159.
AndG2532 they prayedG4336, and saidG2036, ThouG4771, LordG2962, which knowest the heartsG2589 of allG3956 men, shewG322 whetherG3739+G1520 ofG1537 theseG5130 twoG1417 thou hast chosenG1586,
That he may takeG2983 partG2819 of thisG5026 ministryG1248 andG2532 apostleshipG651, fromG1537 whichG3739 JudasG2455 by transgression fellG3845, that he might goG4198 toG1519 his ownG2398 placeG5117.
