King James Version 1611 with Strong's numbers
Versliste
Now IsraelH3478 lovedH157 JosephH3130 more than all his childrenH1121, because he was the sonH1121 of his old ageH2208: and he madeH6213 him a coatH3801 of many coloursH6446. {colours: or, pieces}
And it came to pass afterH310 these thingsH1697, that GodH430 did temptH5254 AbrahamH85, and saidH559 unto him, AbrahamH85: and he saidH559, Behold, here I am. {Behold…: Heb. Behold me}
And he saidH559, Take nowH3947 thy sonH1121, thine onlyH3173 son IsaacH3327, whom thou lovestH157, and get theeH3212 into the landH776 of MoriahH4179; and offer himH5927 there for a burnt offeringH5930 upon oneH259 of the mountainsH2022 which I will tellH559 thee of.
And AbrahamH85 rose up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and saddledH2280 his assH2543, and tookH3947 twoH8147 of his young menH5288 with him, and IsaacH3327 his sonH1121, and claveH1234 the woodH6086 for the burnt offeringH5930, and rose upH6965, and wentH3212 unto the placeH4725 of which GodH430 had toldH559 him.
Then on the thirdH7992 dayH3117 AbrahamH85 lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869, and sawH7200 the placeH4725 afar offH7350.
And AbrahamH85 saidH559 unto his young menH5288, AbideH3427 ye here with the assH2543; and I and the ladH5288 will goH3212 yonderH3541 and worshipH7812, and come againH7725 to you.
And AbrahamH85 tookH3947 the woodH6086 of the burnt offeringH5930, and laidH7760 it upon IsaacH3327 his sonH1121; and he tookH3947 the fireH784 in his handH3027, and a knifeH3979; and they wentH3212 bothH8147 of them togetherH3162.
And IsaacH3327 spakeH559 unto AbrahamH85 his fatherH1, and saidH559, My fatherH1: and he saidH559, Here am I, my sonH1121. And he saidH559, Behold the fireH784 and the woodH6086: but where is the lambH7716 for a burnt offeringH5930? {lamb: or, kid}
And AbrahamH85 saidH559, My sonH1121, GodH430 will provideH7200 himself a lambH7716 for a burnt offeringH5930: so they wentH3212 both of themH8147 togetherH3162.
And they cameH935 to the placeH4725 which GodH430 had toldH559 him of; and AbrahamH85 builtH1129 an altarH4196 there, and laidH6186 the woodH6086 in orderH6186, and boundH6123 IsaacH3327 his sonH1121, and laidH7760 him on the altarH4196 uponH4605 the woodH6086.
And AbrahamH85 stretched forthH7971 his handH3027, and tookH3947 the knifeH3979 to slayH7819 his sonH1121.
And the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 calledH7121 unto him out of heavenH8064, and saidH559, AbrahamH85, AbrahamH85: and he saidH559, Here am I.
And he saidH559, LayH7971 not thine handH3027 uponH413 the ladH5288, neither do thouH6213 any thingH3972 unto him: for nowH6258 I knowH3045 that thou fearestH3373 GodH430, seeing thou hast notH3808 withheldH2820 thy sonH1121, thine onlyH3173 son from me.
And AbrahamH85 lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869, and lookedH7200, and behold behindH310 him a ramH352 caughtH270 in a thicketH5442 by his hornsH7161: and AbrahamH85 wentH3212 and tookH3947 the ramH352, and offered him upH5927 for a burnt offeringH5930 in the steadH8478 of his sonH1121.
And AbrahamH85 calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 JehovahjirehH3070: asH834 it is saidH559 to this dayH3117, In the mountH2022 of the LORDH3068 it shall be seenH7200. {Jehovahjireh: that is, The Lord will see, or, provide}
And the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 calledH7121 unto AbrahamH85 out of heavenH8064 the second timeH8145,
And saidH559, By myself have I swornH7650, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, for becauseH3282+H834 thou hast doneH6213 this thingH1697, and hast notH3808 withheldH2820 thy sonH1121, thine onlyH3173 son:
That in blessingH1288 I will blessH1288 thee, and in multiplyingH7235 I will multiplyH7235 thy seedH2233 as the starsH3556 of the heavenH8064, and as the sandH2344 which is upon the seaH3220 shoreH8193; and thy seedH2233 shall possessH3423 the gateH8179 of his enemiesH341; {shore: Heb. lip}
And in thy seedH2233 shall all the nationsH1471 of the earthH776 be blessedH1288; becauseH834+H6118 thou hast obeyedH8085 my voiceH6963.
So AbrahamH85 returnedH7725 unto his young menH5288, and they rose upH6965 and wentH3212 togetherH3162 to BeershebaH884; and AbrahamH85 dweltH3427 at BeershebaH884.
And it came to pass afterH310 these thingsH1697, that it was toldH5046 AbrahamH85, sayingH559, Behold, MilcahH4435, she hath also bornH3205 childrenH1121 unto thy brotherH251 NahorH5152;
HuzH5780 his firstbornH1060, and BuzH938 his brotherH251, and KemuelH7055 the fatherH1 of AramH758,
And ChesedH3777, and HazoH2375, and PildashH6394, and JidlaphH3044, and BethuelH1328.
And BethuelH1328 begatH3205 RebekahH7259: these eightH8083 MilcahH4435 did bearH3205 to NahorH5152, Abraham'sH85 brotherH251. {Rebekah: Gr. Rebecca}
And his concubineH6370, whose nameH8034 was ReumahH7208, she bareH3205 also TebahH2875, and GahamH1514, and ThahashH8477, and MaachahH4601.
And AbrahamH85 was oldH2204, and well strickenH935 in ageH3117: and the LORDH3068 had blessedH1288 AbrahamH85 in all things. {well…: Heb. gone into days}
And AbrahamH85 saidH559 unto his eldestH2205 servantH5650 of his houseH1004, that ruled overH4910 all that he had, PutH7760, I pray thee, thy handH3027 under my thighH3409:
And I will make thee swearH7650 by the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of heavenH8064, and the GodH430 of the earthH776, that thou shalt not takeH3947 a wifeH802 unto my sonH1121 of the daughtersH1323 of the CanaanitesH3669, amongH7130 whom I dwellH3427:
But thou shalt goH3212 unto my countryH776, and to my kindredH4138, and takeH3947 a wifeH802 unto my sonH1121 IsaacH3327.
And the servantH5650 saidH559 unto him, Peradventure the womanH802 will not be willingH14 to followH3212 meH310 unto this landH776: must I needs bringH7725 thy sonH1121 againH7725 unto the landH776 from whence thou camestH3318?
And AbrahamH85 saidH559 unto him, BewareH8104 thou that thou bringH7725 notH6435 my sonH1121 thither againH7725.
The LORDH3068 GodH430 of heavenH8064, which took meH3947 from my father'sH1 houseH1004, and from the landH776 of my kindredH4138, and which spakeH1696 unto me, and that swareH7650 unto me, sayingH559, Unto thy seedH2233 will I giveH5414 this landH776; he shall sendH7971 his angelH4397 before theeH6440, and thou shalt takeH3947 a wifeH802 unto my sonH1121 from thence.
And if the womanH802 will not be willingH14 to followH3212 theeH310, then thou shalt be clearH5352 from this my oathH7621: only bringH7725 not my sonH1121 thither againH7725.
And the servantH5650 putH7760 his handH3027 under the thighH3409 of AbrahamH85 his masterH113, and swareH7650 to him concerningH5921 thatH2088 matterH1697.
And the servantH5650 tookH3947 tenH6235 camelsH1581 of the camelsH1581 of his masterH113, and departedH3212; for all the goodsH2898 of his masterH113 were in his handH3027: and he aroseH6965, and wentH3212 to MesopotamiaH763, unto the cityH5892 of NahorH5152. {for: or, and}
And he madeH1288 his camelsH1581 to kneel downH1288 withoutH2351 the cityH5892 byH413 a wellH875 of waterH4325 at the timeH6256 of the eveningH6153, even the timeH6256 that women go outH3318 to drawH7579 water. {that…: Heb. that women who draw water go forth}
And he saidH559, O LORDH3068 GodH430 of my masterH113 AbrahamH85, I pray thee, send meH6440 good speedH7136 this dayH3117, and shewH6213 kindnessH2617 untoH5973 my masterH113 AbrahamH85.
Behold, I standH5324 here by the wellH5869 of waterH4325; and the daughtersH1323 of the menH582 of the cityH5892 come outH3318 to drawH7579 waterH4325:
And let it come to pass, that the damselH5291 to whom I shall sayH559, Let downH5186 thy pitcherH3537, I pray thee, that I may drinkH8354; and she shall sayH559, DrinkH8354, and I will giveH8248 thy camelsH1581 drinkH8248 also: let the same be she that thou hast appointedH3198 for thy servantH5650 IsaacH3327; and thereby shall I knowH3045 that thou hast shewedH6213 kindnessH2617 unto my masterH113.
And it came to pass, before he had doneH3615 speakingH1696, that, behold, RebekahH7259 came outH3318, whoH834 was bornH3205 to BethuelH1328, sonH1121 of MilcahH4435, the wifeH802 of NahorH5152, Abraham'sH85 brotherH251, with her pitcherH3537 upon her shoulderH7926.
And the damselH5291 was veryH3966 fairH2896 to look uponH4758, a virginH1330, neither had any manH376 knownH3045 her: and she went downH3381 to the wellH5869, and filledH4390 her pitcherH3537, and came upH5927. {very…: Heb. good of countenance}
And the servantH5650 ranH7323 to meet herH7125, and saidH559, Let me, I pray thee, drinkH1572 a littleH4592 waterH4325 of thy pitcherH3537.
And she saidH559, DrinkH8354, my lordH113: and she hastedH4116, and let downH3381 her pitcherH3537 upon her handH3027, and gave him drinkH8248.
And when she had doneH3615 giving him drinkH8248, she saidH559, I will drawH7579 water for thy camelsH1581 also, until they have doneH3615 drinkingH8354.
And she hastedH4116, and emptiedH6168 her pitcherH3537 into the troughH8268, and ranH7323 again unto the wellH875 to drawH7579 water, and drewH7579 for all his camelsH1581.
And the manH376 wonderingH7583 at her held his peaceH2790, to witH3045 whether the LORDH3068 had madeH6743 his journeyH1870 prosperousH6743 orH518 not.
And it came to pass, as the camelsH1581 had doneH3615 drinkingH8354, that the manH376 tookH3947 a goldenH2091 earringH5141 of half a shekelH1235 weightH4948, and twoH8147 braceletsH6781 for her handsH3027 of tenH6235 shekels weightH4948 of goldH2091; {earring: or, jewel for the forehead}
And saidH559, WhoseH4310 daughterH1323 art thouH859? tellH5046 me, I pray thee: is thereH3426 roomH4725 in thy father'sH1 houseH1004 for us to lodge inH3885?
And she saidH559 unto him, I am the daughterH1323 of BethuelH1328 the sonH1121 of MilcahH4435, which she bareH3205 unto NahorH5152.
She saidH559 moreover unto him, We have bothH1571 strawH8401 and provenderH4554 enoughH7227, andH1571 roomH4725 to lodge inH3885.
And the manH376 bowed down his headH6915, and worshippedH7812 the LORDH3068.
And he saidH559, BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068 GodH430 of my masterH113 AbrahamH85, who hath not left destituteH5800+H5973 my masterH113 of his mercyH2617 and his truthH571: I being in the wayH1870, the LORDH3068 led meH5148 to the houseH1004 of my master'sH113 brethrenH251.
And the damselH5291 ranH7323, and toldH5046 them of her mother'sH517 houseH1004 these thingsH1697.
And RebekahH7259 had a brotherH251, and his nameH8034 was LabanH3837: and LabanH3837 ranH7323 outH2351 unto the manH376, unto the wellH5869.
And it came to pass, when he sawH7200 the earringH5141 and braceletsH6781 upon his sister'sH269 handsH3027, and when he heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of RebekahH7259 his sisterH269, sayingH559, ThusH3541 spakeH1696 the manH376 unto me; that he cameH935 unto the manH376; and, behold, he stoodH5975 byH5921 the camelsH1581 at the wellH5869.
And he saidH559, Come inH935, thou blessedH1288 of the LORDH3068; wherefore standestH5975 thou withoutH2351? for I have preparedH6437 the houseH1004, and roomH4725 for the camelsH1581.
And the manH376 cameH935 into the houseH1004: and he ungirdedH6605 his camelsH1581, and gaveH5414 strawH8401 and provenderH4554 for the camelsH1581, and waterH4325 to washH7364 his feetH7272, and the men'sH582 feetH7272 that were with him.
And there was setH7760+H3455 meat before himH6440 to eatH398: but he saidH559, I will not eatH398, until I have toldH1696 mine errandH1697. And he saidH559, Speak onH1696.
And he saidH559, I am Abraham'sH85 servantH5650.
And the LORDH3068 hath blessedH1288 my masterH113 greatlyH3966; and he is become greatH1431: and he hath givenH5414 him flocksH6629, and herdsH1241, and silverH3701, and goldH2091, and menservantsH5650, and maidservantsH8198, and camelsH1581, and assesH2543.
And SarahH8283 my master'sH113 wifeH802 bareH3205 a sonH1121 to my masterH113 whenH310 she was oldH2209: and unto him hath he givenH5414 all that he hath.
And my masterH113 made me swearH7650, sayingH559, Thou shalt not takeH3947 a wifeH802 to my sonH1121 of the daughtersH1323 of the CanaanitesH3669, in whose landH776 I dwellH3427:
ButH518 thou shalt goH3212 unto my father'sH1 houseH1004, and to my kindredH4940, and takeH3947 a wifeH802 unto my sonH1121.
And I saidH559 unto my masterH113, Peradventure the womanH802 will not followH3212+H310 me.
And he saidH559 unto me, The LORDH3068, beforeH6440 whom I walkH1980, will sendH7971 his angelH4397 with thee, and prosperH6743 thy wayH1870; and thou shalt takeH3947 a wifeH802 for my sonH1121 of my kindredH4940, and of my father'sH1 houseH1004:
Then shalt thou be clearH5352 from this my oathH423, when thou comestH935 to my kindredH4940; and if they giveH5414 not thee one, thou shalt be clearH5355 from my oathH423.
And I cameH935 this dayH3117 unto the wellH5869, and saidH559, O LORDH3068 GodH430 of my masterH113 AbrahamH85, if now thou doH3426 prosperH6743 my wayH1870 which I goH1980:
Behold, I standH5324 by the wellH5869 of waterH4325; and it shall come to pass, that when the virginH5959 cometh forthH3318 to drawH7579 water, and I sayH559 to her, Give meH8248, I pray thee, a littleH4592 waterH4325 of thy pitcherH3537 to drinkH8248;
And she sayH559 to me, Both drinkH8354 thou, and I will also drawH7579 for thy camelsH1581: let the same be the womanH802 whom the LORDH3068 hath appointed outH3198 for my master'sH113 sonH1121.
And before I had doneH3615 speakingH1696 in mine heartH3820, behold, RebekahH7259 came forthH3318 with her pitcherH3537 on her shoulderH7926; and she went downH3381 unto the wellH5869, and drewH7579 water: and I saidH559 unto her, Let me drinkH8248, I pray thee.
And she made hasteH4116, and let downH3381 her pitcherH3537 from her shoulder, and saidH559, DrinkH8354, and I will giveH8248 thy camelsH1581 drinkH8248 also: so I drankH8354, and she madeH8248 the camelsH1581 drinkH8248 also.
And I askedH7592 her, and saidH559, Whose daughterH1323 art thou? And she saidH559, The daughterH1323 of BethuelH1328, Nahor'sH5152 sonH1121, whom MilcahH4435 bareH3205 unto him: and I putH7760 the earringH5141 upon her faceH639, and the braceletsH6781 upon her handsH3027.
And I bowed down my headH6915, and worshippedH7812 the LORDH3068, and blessedH1288 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of my masterH113 AbrahamH85, which had led meH5148 in the rightH571 wayH1870 to takeH3947 my master'sH113 brother'sH251 daughterH1323 unto his sonH1121.
And now if ye willH3426 dealH6213 kindlyH2617 and trulyH571 with my masterH113, tellH5046 me: and if not, tellH5046 me; that I may turnH6437 to the right handH3225, orH176 to the leftH8040.
Then LabanH3837 and BethuelH1328 answeredH6030 and saidH559, The thingH1697 proceedethH3318 from the LORDH3068: we cannotH3201 speakH1696 unto thee badH7451 orH176 goodH2896.
Behold, RebekahH7259 is before theeH6440, takeH3947 her, and goH3212, and let her be thy master'sH113 son'sH1121 wifeH802, as the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696.
And it came to pass, that, when Abraham'sH85 servantH5650 heardH8085 their wordsH1697, he worshippedH7812 the LORDH3068, bowing himself to the earthH776.
And the servantH5650 brought forthH3318 jewelsH3627 of silverH3701, and jewelsH3627 of goldH2091, and raimentH899, and gaveH5414 them to RebekahH7259: he gaveH5414 also to her brotherH251 and to her motherH517 precious thingsH4030. {jewels: Heb. vessels}
And they did eatH398 and drinkH8354, he and the menH582 that were with him, and tarried all nightH3885; and they rose upH6965 in the morningH1242, and he saidH559, Send me awayH7971 unto my masterH113.
And her brotherH251 and her motherH517 saidH559, Let the damselH5291 abideH3427 with us a few daysH3117, at the leastH176 tenH6218; afterH310 that she shall goH3212. {a few…: or, a full year, or ten months}
And he saidH559 unto them, Hinder meH309 not, seeing the LORDH3068 hath prosperedH6743 my wayH1870; send me awayH7971 that I may goH3212 to my masterH113.
And they saidH559, We will callH7121 the damselH5291, and enquireH7592 at her mouthH6310.
And they calledH7121 RebekahH7259, and saidH559 unto her, Wilt thou goH3212 with this manH376? And she saidH559, I will goH3212.
And they sent awayH7971 RebekahH7259 their sisterH269, and her nurseH3243, and Abraham'sH85 servantH5650, and his menH582.
And they blessedH1288 RebekahH7259, and saidH559 unto her, ThouH859 art our sisterH269, be thouH1961 the mother of thousandsH505 of millionsH7233, and let thy seedH2233 possessH3423 the gateH8179 of those which hateH8130 them.
And RebekahH7259 aroseH6965, and her damselsH5291, and they rodeH7392 upon the camelsH1581, and followedH3212+H310 the manH376: and the servantH5650 tookH3947 RebekahH7259, and went his wayH3212.
And IsaacH3327 cameH935 from the wayH935 of the well LahairoiH883; for he dweltH3427 in the southH5045 countryH776.
And IsaacH3327 went outH3318 to meditateH7742 in the fieldH7704 atH6437 the eventideH6153: and he lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869, and sawH7200, and, behold, the camelsH1581 were comingH935. {to meditate: or, to pray}
And RebekahH7259 lifted upH5375 her eyesH5869, and when she sawH7200 IsaacH3327, she lightedH5307 offH5921 the camelH1581.
For she had saidH559 unto the servantH5650, WhatH4310 manH376 is thisH1976 that walkethH1980 in the fieldH7704 to meet usH7125? And the servantH5650 had saidH559, It is my masterH113: therefore she tookH3947 a vailH6809, and covered herselfH3680.
And the servantH5650 toldH5608 IsaacH3327 all thingsH1697 that he had doneH6213.
And IsaacH3327 brought herH935 into his motherH517 Sarah'sH8283 tentH168, and tookH3947 RebekahH7259, and she became his wifeH802; and he lovedH157 her: and IsaacH3327 was comfortedH5162 afterH310 his mother'sH517 death.
And JacobH3290 dweltH3427 in the landH776 wherein his fatherH1 was a strangerH4033, in the landH776 of CanaanH3667. {wherein…: Heb. of his father's sojournings}
These are the generationsH8435 of JacobH3290. JosephH3130, being seventeenH6240+H7651 yearsH8141 oldH1121, was feedingH7462 the flockH6629 with his brethrenH251; and the ladH5288 was with the sonsH1121 of BilhahH1090, and with the sonsH1121 of ZilpahH2153, his father'sH1 wivesH802: and JosephH3130 broughtH935 unto his fatherH1 their evilH7451 reportH1681.
Now IsraelH3478 lovedH157 JosephH3130 more than all his childrenH1121, because he was the sonH1121 of his old ageH2208: and he madeH6213 him a coatH3801 of many coloursH6446. {colours: or, pieces}
And when his brethrenH251 sawH7200 that their fatherH1 lovedH157 him more than all his brethrenH251, they hatedH8130 him, and couldH3201 not speakH1696 peaceablyH7965 unto him.
And JosephH3130 dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472, and he toldH5046 it his brethrenH251: and they hatedH8130 him yet the moreH3254.
And he saidH559 unto them, HearH8085, I pray you, this dreamH2472 which I have dreamedH2492:
For, behold, we were bindingH481+H8432 sheavesH485 in the fieldH7704, and, lo, my sheafH485 aroseH6965, and also stood uprightH5324; and, behold, your sheavesH485 stood round aboutH5437, and made obeisanceH7812 to my sheafH485.
And his brethrenH251 saidH559 to him, Shalt thou indeedH4427 reignH4427 over us? or shalt thou indeedH4910 have dominionH4910 over us? And they hatedH8130 him yet the moreH3254 for his dreamsH2472, and for his wordsH1697.
And he dreamedH2492 yet anotherH312 dreamH2472, and toldH5608 it his brethrenH251, and saidH559, Behold, I have dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472 more; and, behold, the sunH8121 and the moonH3394 and the elevenH6240+H259 starsH3556 made obeisanceH7812 to me.
And he toldH5608 it to his fatherH1, and to his brethrenH251: and his fatherH1 rebukedH1605 him, and saidH559 unto him, What is this dreamH2472 that thou hast dreamedH2492? Shall I and thy motherH517 and thy brethrenH251 indeedH935 comeH935 to bow downH7812 ourselves to thee to the earthH776?
And his brethrenH251 enviedH7065 him; but his fatherH1 observedH8104 the sayingH1697.
And his brethrenH251 wentH3212 to feedH7462 their father'sH1 flockH6629 in ShechemH7927.
And IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto JosephH3130, Do not thy brethrenH251 feedH7462 the flock in ShechemH7927? comeH3212, and I will send theeH7971 unto them. And he saidH559 to him, Here am I.
And he saidH559 to him, GoH3212, I pray thee, seeH7200 whether it be wellH7965 with thy brethrenH251, and wellH7965 with the flocksH6629; and bringH7725 me wordH1697 againH7725. So he sentH7971 him out of the valeH6010 of HebronH2275, and he cameH935 to ShechemH7927. {see…: Heb. see the peace of thy brethren, etc.}
And a certain manH376 found himH4672, and, behold, he was wanderingH8582 in the fieldH7704: and the manH376 asked himH7592, sayingH559, What seekestH1245 thou?
And he saidH559, I seekH1245 my brethrenH251: tellH5046 me, I pray thee, whereH375 they feedH7462 their flocks.
And the manH376 saidH559, They are departedH5265 henceH2088; for I heardH8085 them sayH559, Let us goH3212 to DothanH1886. And JosephH3130 wentH3212 afterH310 his brethrenH251, and foundH4672 them in DothanH1886.
And when they sawH7200 him afar offH7350, even before he came nearH7126 unto them, they conspiredH5230 against him to slayH4191 him.
And they saidH559 oneH376 to anotherH251, Behold, thisH1976 dreamerH1167+H2472 comethH935. {dreamer: Heb. master of dreams}
ComeH3212 now therefore, and let us slayH2026 him, and castH7993 him into someH259 pitH953, and we will sayH559, Some evilH7451 beastH2416 hath devouredH398 him: and we shall seeH7200 what will become of his dreamsH2472.
And ReubenH7205 heardH8085 it, and he deliveredH5337 him out of their handsH3027; and saidH559, Let us not killH5221+H5315 him.
And ReubenH7205 saidH559 unto them, ShedH8210 no bloodH1818, but castH7993 him into this pitH953 that is in the wildernessH4057, and layH7971 no handH3027 upon him; that he might ridH5337 him out of their handsH3027, to deliverH7725 him to his fatherH1 againH7725.
And it came to pass, when JosephH3130 was comeH935 unto his brethrenH251, that they striptH6584+H853 JosephH3130 out ofH854 his coatH3801, his coatH3801 of many coloursH6446 that was on him; {colours: or, pieces}
And they tookH3947 him, and castH7993 him into a pitH953: and the pitH953 was emptyH7386, there was no waterH4325 in it.
And they sat downH3427 to eatH398 breadH3899: and they lifted upH5375 their eyesH5869 and lookedH7200, and, behold, a companyH736 of IshmeelitesH3459 cameH935 from GileadH1568 with their camelsH1581 bearingH5375 spiceryH5219 and balmH6875 and myrrhH3910, goingH1980 to carry it downH3381 to EgyptH4714.
And JudahH3063 saidH559 unto his brethrenH251, What profitH1215 is it if we slayH2026 our brotherH251, and concealH3680 his bloodH1818?
ComeH3212, and let us sellH4376 him to the IshmeelitesH3459, and let not our handH3027 be upon him; for he is our brotherH251 and our fleshH1320. And his brethrenH251 were contentH8085. {were…: Heb. hearkened}
Then there passedH5674 by MidianitesH4084 merchantmenH582+H5503; and they drewH4900 and lifted upH5927 JosephH3130 out of the pitH953, and soldH4376 JosephH3130 to the IshmeelitesH3459 for twentyH6242 pieces of silverH3701: and they broughtH935 JosephH3130 into EgyptH4714.
And ReubenH7205 returnedH7725 unto the pitH953; and, behold, JosephH3130 was not in the pitH953; and he rentH7167 his clothesH899.
And he returnedH7725 unto his brethrenH251, and saidH559, The childH3206 is not; and I, whitherH575 shall I goH935?
And they tookH3947 Joseph'sH3130 coatH3801, and killedH7819 a kidH8163 of the goatsH5795, and dippedH2881 the coatH3801 in the bloodH1818;
And they sentH7971 the coatH3801 of many coloursH6446, and they broughtH935 it to their fatherH1; and saidH559, This have we foundH4672: knowH5234 now whether it be thy son'sH1121 coatH3801 or no.
And he knew itH5234, and saidH559, It is my son'sH1121 coatH3801; an evilH7451 beastH2416 hath devouredH398 him; JosephH3130 is without doubtH2963 rent in piecesH2963.
And JacobH3290 rentH7167 his clothesH8071, and putH7760 sackclothH8242 upon his loinsH4975, and mournedH56 for his sonH1121 manyH7227 daysH3117.
And all his sonsH1121 and all his daughtersH1323 rose upH6965 to comfortH5162 him; but he refusedH3985 to be comfortedH5162; and he saidH559, For I will go downH3381 into the graveH7585 unto my sonH1121 mourningH57. Thus his fatherH1 weptH1058 for him.
And the MidianitesH4092 soldH4376 him into EgyptH4714 unto PotipharH6318, an officerH5631 of Pharaoh'sH6547, and captainH8269 of the guardH2876. {officer: Heb. eunuch: but the word doth signify not only eunuchs, but also chamberlains, courtiers, and officers} {captain…: or, chief marshal: Heb. chief of the slaughter men, or executioners}
And JosephH3130 was brought downH3381 to EgyptH4714; and PotipharH6318, an officerH5631 of PharaohH6547, captainH8269 of the guardH2876, an EgyptianH376+H4713, boughtH7069 him of the handsH3027 of the IshmeelitesH3459, which had brought him downH3381 thither.
And the LORDH3068 was with JosephH3130, and he was a prosperousH6743 manH376; and he was in the houseH1004 of his masterH113 the EgyptianH4713.
And his masterH113 sawH7200 that the LORDH3068 was with him, and that the LORDH3068 made all that he didH6213 to prosperH6743 in his handH3027.
And JosephH3130 foundH4672 graceH2580 in his sightH5869, and he servedH8334 him: and he made him overseerH6485 over his houseH1004, and all that he hadH3426 he putH5414 into his handH3027.
And it came to pass from the timeH227 that he had made him overseerH6485 in his houseH1004, and over all that he hadH3426, that the LORDH3068 blessedH1288 the Egyptian'sH4713 houseH1004 for Joseph'sH3130 sakeH1558; and the blessingH1293 of the LORDH3068 was upon all that he hadH3426 in the houseH1004, and in the fieldH7704.
And he leftH5800 all that he had in Joseph'sH3130 handH3027; and he knewH3045 not oughtH3972 he had, saveH518 the breadH3899 which he did eatH398. And JosephH3130 was a goodlyH8389 person, and wellH3303 favouredH4758.
And it came to pass afterH310 these thingsH1697, that his master'sH113 wifeH802 castH5375 her eyesH5869 upon JosephH3130; and she saidH559, LieH7901 with me.
But he refusedH3985, and saidH559 unto his master'sH113 wifeH802, Behold, my masterH113 wottethH3045 not what is with me in the houseH1004, and he hath committedH5414 all that he hathH3426 to my handH3027;
There is none greaterH1419 in this houseH1004 than I; neitherH3808 hath he kept backH2820 any thingH3972 from me but thee, becauseH834 thouH859 art his wifeH802: how then can I doH6213 this greatH1419 wickednessH7451, and sinH2398 against GodH430?
And it came to pass, as she spakeH1696 to JosephH3130 dayH3117 by dayH3117, that he hearkenedH8085 not unto her, to lieH7901 by herH681, or to be with her.
And it came to pass about this timeH3117, that Joseph wentH935 into the houseH1004 to doH6213 his businessH4399; and there was none of the menH376+H582 of the houseH1004 there within.
And she caughtH8610 him by his garmentH899, sayingH559, LieH7901 with me: and he leftH5800 his garmentH899 in her handH3027, and fledH5127, and gotH3318 him outH2351.
And it came to pass, when she sawH7200 that he had leftH5800 his garmentH899 in her handH3027, and was fledH5127 forthH2351,
That she calledH7121 unto the menH582 of her houseH1004, and spakeH559 unto them, sayingH559, SeeH7200, he hath brought inH935 an HebrewH376+H5680 unto us to mockH6711 us; he came inH935 unto me to lieH7901 with me, and I criedH7121 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963: {loud: Heb. great}
And it came to pass, when he heardH8085 that I lifted upH7311 my voiceH6963 and criedH7121, that he leftH5800 his garmentH899 with meH681, and fledH5127, and got himH3318 outH2351.
And she laid upH3240 his garmentH899 by herH681, until his lordH113 cameH935 homeH1004.
And she spakeH1696 unto him according to these wordsH1697, sayingH559, The HebrewH5680 servantH5650, which thou hast broughtH935 unto us, came inH935 unto me to mockH6711 me:
And it came to pass, as I lifted upH7311 my voiceH6963 and criedH7121, that he leftH5800 his garmentH899 with meH681, and fledH5127 outH2351.
And it came to pass, when his masterH113 heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of his wifeH802, which she spakeH1696 unto him, sayingH559, After this mannerH1697 didH6213 thy servantH5650 to me; that his wrathH639 was kindledH2734.
And Joseph'sH3130 masterH113 tookH3947 him, and put himH5414 into the prisonH1004+H5470, a placeH4725 where the king'sH4428 prisonersH615 were boundH631: and he was there in the prisonH1004+H5470.
But the LORDH3068 was with JosephH3130, and shewedH5186 him mercyH2617, and gaveH5414 him favourH2580 in the sightH5869 of the keeperH8269 of the prisonH1004+H5470. {shewed…: Heb. extended kindness unto him}
And the keeperH8269 of the prisonH1004+H5470 committedH5414 to Joseph'sH3130 handH3027 all the prisonersH615 that were in the prisonH1004+H5470; and whatsoever they didH6213 there, he was the doerH6213 of it.
The keeperH8269 of the prisonH1004+H5470 lookedH7200 not to any thingH3972 that was under his handH3027; because the LORDH3068 was with him, and that which he didH6213, the LORDH3068 made it to prosperH6743.
AndG2532 from thenceG1564 he aroseG450, and wentG565 intoG1519 the bordersG3181 of TyreG5184 andG2532 SidonG4605, andG2532 enteredG1525 intoG1519 an houseG3614, and would haveG2309 no manG3762 knowG1097 it: butG2532 he couldG1410 notG3756 be hidG2990.
And his masterH113 sawH7200 that the LORDH3068 was with him, and that the LORDH3068 made all that he didH6213 to prosperH6743 in his handH3027.
And it came to pass from the timeH227 that he had made him overseerH6485 in his houseH1004, and over all that he hadH3426, that the LORDH3068 blessedH1288 the Egyptian'sH4713 houseH1004 for Joseph'sH3130 sakeH1558; and the blessingH1293 of the LORDH3068 was upon all that he hadH3426 in the houseH1004, and in the fieldH7704.
HowG5613 GodG2316 anointedG5548 JesusG2424 ofG575 NazarethG3478 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151 andG2532 with powerG1411: whoG846+G3739 went aboutG1330 doing goodG2109, andG2532 healingG2390 allG3956 that were oppressedG2616 ofG5259 the devilG1228; forG3754 GodG2316 wasG2258 withG3326 himG846.
Then I saidH559, I have labouredH3021 in vainH7385, I have spentH3615 my strengthH3581 for noughtH8414, and in vainH1892: yet surelyH403 my judgmentH4941 is with the LORDH3068, and my workH6468 with my GodH430. {my work: or, my reward}
And he leftH5800 all that he had in Joseph'sH3130 handH3027; and he knewH3045 not oughtH3972 he had, saveH518 the breadH3899 which he did eatH398. And JosephH3130 was a goodlyH8389 person, and wellH3303 favouredH4758.
And JosephH3130 was brought downH3381 to EgyptH4714; and PotipharH6318, an officerH5631 of PharaohH6547, captainH8269 of the guardH2876, an EgyptianH376+H4713, boughtH7069 him of the handsH3027 of the IshmeelitesH3459, which had brought him downH3381 thither.
And the LORDH3068 was with JosephH3130, and he was a prosperousH6743 manH376; and he was in the houseH1004 of his masterH113 the EgyptianH4713.
And his masterH113 sawH7200 that the LORDH3068 was with him, and that the LORDH3068 made all that he didH6213 to prosperH6743 in his handH3027.
And JosephH3130 foundH4672 graceH2580 in his sightH5869, and he servedH8334 him: and he made him overseerH6485 over his houseH1004, and all that he hadH3426 he putH5414 into his handH3027.
And it came to pass from the timeH227 that he had made him overseerH6485 in his houseH1004, and over all that he hadH3426, that the LORDH3068 blessedH1288 the Egyptian'sH4713 houseH1004 for Joseph'sH3130 sakeH1558; and the blessingH1293 of the LORDH3068 was upon all that he hadH3426 in the houseH1004, and in the fieldH7704.
And he leftH5800 all that he had in Joseph'sH3130 handH3027; and he knewH3045 not oughtH3972 he had, saveH518 the breadH3899 which he did eatH398. And JosephH3130 was a goodlyH8389 person, and wellH3303 favouredH4758.
And it came to pass afterH310 these thingsH1697, that his master'sH113 wifeH802 castH5375 her eyesH5869 upon JosephH3130; and she saidH559, LieH7901 with me.
But he refusedH3985, and saidH559 unto his master'sH113 wifeH802, Behold, my masterH113 wottethH3045 not what is with me in the houseH1004, and he hath committedH5414 all that he hathH3426 to my handH3027;
There is none greaterH1419 in this houseH1004 than I; neitherH3808 hath he kept backH2820 any thingH3972 from me but thee, becauseH834 thouH859 art his wifeH802: how then can I doH6213 this greatH1419 wickednessH7451, and sinH2398 against GodH430?
And it came to pass, as she spakeH1696 to JosephH3130 dayH3117 by dayH3117, that he hearkenedH8085 not unto her, to lieH7901 by herH681, or to be with her.
And it came to pass about this timeH3117, that Joseph wentH935 into the houseH1004 to doH6213 his businessH4399; and there was none of the menH376+H582 of the houseH1004 there within.
And she caughtH8610 him by his garmentH899, sayingH559, LieH7901 with me: and he leftH5800 his garmentH899 in her handH3027, and fledH5127, and gotH3318 him outH2351.
And it came to pass, when she sawH7200 that he had leftH5800 his garmentH899 in her handH3027, and was fledH5127 forthH2351,
That she calledH7121 unto the menH582 of her houseH1004, and spakeH559 unto them, sayingH559, SeeH7200, he hath brought inH935 an HebrewH376+H5680 unto us to mockH6711 us; he came inH935 unto me to lieH7901 with me, and I criedH7121 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963: {loud: Heb. great}
And it came to pass, when he heardH8085 that I lifted upH7311 my voiceH6963 and criedH7121, that he leftH5800 his garmentH899 with meH681, and fledH5127, and got himH3318 outH2351.
And she laid upH3240 his garmentH899 by herH681, until his lordH113 cameH935 homeH1004.
And she spakeH1696 unto him according to these wordsH1697, sayingH559, The HebrewH5680 servantH5650, which thou hast broughtH935 unto us, came inH935 unto me to mockH6711 me:
And it came to pass, as I lifted upH7311 my voiceH6963 and criedH7121, that he leftH5800 his garmentH899 with meH681, and fledH5127 outH2351.
And it came to pass, when his masterH113 heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of his wifeH802, which she spakeH1696 unto him, sayingH559, After this mannerH1697 didH6213 thy servantH5650 to me; that his wrathH639 was kindledH2734.
And Joseph'sH3130 masterH113 tookH3947 him, and put himH5414 into the prisonH1004+H5470, a placeH4725 where the king'sH4428 prisonersH615 were boundH631: and he was there in the prisonH1004+H5470.
But the LORDH3068 was with JosephH3130, and shewedH5186 him mercyH2617, and gaveH5414 him favourH2580 in the sightH5869 of the keeperH8269 of the prisonH1004+H5470. {shewed…: Heb. extended kindness unto him}
And the keeperH8269 of the prisonH1004+H5470 committedH5414 to Joseph'sH3130 handH3027 all the prisonersH615 that were in the prisonH1004+H5470; and whatsoever they didH6213 there, he was the doerH6213 of it.
The keeperH8269 of the prisonH1004+H5470 lookedH7200 not to any thingH3972 that was under his handH3027; because the LORDH3068 was with him, and that which he didH6213, the LORDH3068 made it to prosperH6743.
Whose feetH7272 they hurtH6031 with fettersH3525: heH5315 was laidH935 in ironH1270: {he…: Heb. his soul came into iron}
ForG1063 toG1519 thisG5124 end ChristG5547 bothG2532 diedG599, andG2532 roseG450, andG2532 revivedG326, thatG2443 he might be LordG2961 bothG2532 of the deadG3498 andG2532 livingG2198.
And PharaohH6547 saidH559 unto JosephH3130, SeeH7200, I have setH5414 thee over all the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
And PharaohH6547 took offH5493 his ringH2885 from his handH3027, and putH5414 it upon Joseph'sH3130 handH3027, and arrayedH3847 him in vesturesH899 of fine linenH8336, and putH7760 a goldH2091 chainH7242 about his neckH6677; {fine…: or, silk}
He madeH7760 him lordH113 of his houseH1004, and rulerH4910 of all his substanceH7075: {substance: Heb. possession}
To bindH631 his princesH8269 at his pleasureH5315; and teach his senatorsH2205 wisdomH2449.
And there was no breadH3899 in all the landH776; for the famineH7458 was veryH3966 soreH3515, so that the landH776 of EgyptH4714 and all the landH776 of CanaanH3667 faintedH3856 by reasonH6440 of the famineH7458.
And JosephH3130 gathered upH3950 all the moneyH3701 that was foundH4672 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, for the cornH7668 which they boughtH7666: and JosephH3130 broughtH935 the moneyH3701 into Pharaoh'sH6547 houseH1004.
And when moneyH3701 failedH8552 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, all the EgyptiansH4714 cameH935 unto JosephH3130, and saidH559, GiveH3051 us breadH3899: for why should we dieH4191 in thy presence? for the moneyH3701 failethH656.
And JosephH3130 saidH559, GiveH3051 your cattleH4735; and I will giveH5414 you for your cattleH4735, if moneyH3701 failH656.
And they broughtH935 their cattleH4735 unto JosephH3130: and JosephH3130 gaveH5414 them breadH3899 in exchange for horsesH5483, and for the flocksH6629, and for the cattleH4735 of the herdsH1241, and for the assesH2543: and he fedH5095 them with breadH3899 for all their cattleH4735 for that yearH8141. {fed…: Heb. led them}
When that yearH8141 was endedH8552, they cameH935 unto him the secondH8145 yearH8141, and saidH559 unto him, We will not hideH3582 it from my lordH113, how that our moneyH3701 is spentH8552; my lordH113 also hathH413 our herdsH4735 of cattleH929; there is not ought leftH7604 in the sightH6440 of my lordH113, but our bodiesH1472, and our landsH127:
Wherefore shall we dieH4191 before thine eyesH5869, both we and our landH127? buyH7069 us and our landH127 for breadH3899, and we and our landH127 will be servantsH5650 unto PharaohH6547: and giveH5414 us seedH2233, that we may liveH2421, and not dieH4191, that the landH127 be not desolateH3456.
And JosephH3130 boughtH7069 all the landH127 of EgyptH4714 for PharaohH6547; for the EgyptiansH4714 soldH4376 every manH376 his fieldH7704, because the famineH7458 prevailedH2388 over them: so the landH776 became Pharaoh'sH6547.
And as for the peopleH5971, he removedH5674 them to citiesH5892 from one endH7097 of the bordersH1366 of EgyptH4714 even to the other endH7097 thereof.
Only the landH127 of the priestsH3548 bought heH7069 not; for the priestsH3548 had a portionH2706 assigned them of PharaohH6547, and did eatH398 their portionH2706 which PharaohH6547 gaveH5414 them: wherefore they soldH4376 not their landsH127. {priests: or, princes}
Then JosephH3130 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, Behold, I have boughtH7069+H853 you this dayH3117 and your landH127 for PharaohH6547: loH1887, here is seedH2233 for you, and ye shall sowH2232 the landH127.
And it shall come to pass in the increaseH8393, that ye shall giveH5414 the fifthH2549 part unto PharaohH6547, and fourH702 partsH3027 shall be your own, for seedH2233 of the fieldH7704, and for your foodH400, and for them of your householdsH1004, and for foodH398 for your little onesH2945.
And they saidH559, Thou hast saved our livesH2421: let us findH4672 graceH2580 in the sightH5869 of my lordH113, and we will be Pharaoh'sH6547 servantsH5650.
And JosephH3130 madeH7760 it a lawH2706 over the landH127 of EgyptH4714 unto this dayH3117, that PharaohH6547 should have the fifthH2569 part; exceptH7535 the landH127 of the priestsH3548 only, which became not Pharaoh'sH6547. {priests: or, princes}
ListenH8085, O islesH339, unto me; and hearkenH7181, ye peopleH3816, from farH7350; The LORDH3068 hath calledH7121 me from the wombH990; from the bowelsH4578 of my motherH517 hath he made mentionH2142 of my nameH8034.
And he hath madeH7760 my mouthH6310 like a sharpH2299 swordH2719; in the shadowH6738 of his handH3027 hath he hidH2244 me, and madeH7760 me a polishedH1305 shaftH2671; in his quiverH827 hath he hidH5641 me;
And saidH559 unto me, Thou art my servantH5650, O IsraelH3478, in whom I will be glorifiedH6286.
Then I saidH559, I have labouredH3021 in vainH7385, I have spentH3615 my strengthH3581 for noughtH8414, and in vainH1892: yet surelyH403 my judgmentH4941 is with the LORDH3068, and my workH6468 with my GodH430. {my work: or, my reward}
And now, saithH559 the LORDH3068 that formedH3335 me from the wombH990 to be his servantH5650, to bringH7725 JacobH3290 againH7725 to him, Though IsraelH3478 be not gatheredH622, yet shall I be gloriousH3513 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, and my GodH430 shall be my strengthH5797. {Though…: or, That Israel may be gathered to him, and I may, etc}
And he saidH559, It is a light thingH7043 that thou shouldest be my servantH5650 to raise upH6965 the tribesH7626 of JacobH3290, and to restoreH7725 the preservedH5341+H5336 of IsraelH3478: I will also giveH5414 thee for a lightH216 to the GentilesH1471, that thou mayest be my salvationH3444 unto the endH7097 of the earthH776. {It is…: or, Art thou lighter than that thou shouldest, etc} {preserved: or, desolations}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the RedeemerH1350 of IsraelH3478, and his Holy OneH6918, to him whom manH5315 despisethH960, to him whom the nationH1471 abhorrethH8581, to a servantH5650 of rulersH4910, KingsH4428 shall seeH7200 and ariseH6965, princesH8269 also shall worshipH7812, because of the LORDH3068 that is faithfulH539, and the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, and he shall chooseH977 thee. {whom man…: or, that is despised in soul}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, In an acceptableH7522 timeH6256 have I heardH6030 thee, and in a dayH3117 of salvationH3444 have I helpedH5826 thee: and I will preserveH5341 thee, and giveH5414 thee for a covenantH1285 of the peopleH5971, to establishH6965 the earthH776, to cause to inheritH5157 the desolateH8074 heritagesH5159; {establish: or, raise up}
That thou mayest sayH559 to the prisonersH631, Go forthH3318; to them that are in darknessH2822, ShewH1540 yourselves. They shall feedH7462 in the waysH1870, and their pasturesH4830 shall be in all high placesH8205.
They shall not hungerH7456 nor thirstH6770; neither shall the heatH8273 nor sunH8121 smiteH5221 them: for he that hath mercyH7355 on them shall leadH5090 them, even by the springsH4002 of waterH4325 shall he guideH5095 them.
And I will makeH7760 all my mountainsH2022 a wayH1870, and my highwaysH4546 shall be exaltedH7311.
Behold, these shall comeH935 from farH7350: and, lo, these from the northH6828 and from the westH3220; and these from the landH776 of SinimH5515.
SingH7442, O heavensH8064; and be joyfulH1523, O earthH776; and break forthH6476 into singingH7440, O mountainsH2022: for the LORDH3068 hath comfortedH5162 his peopleH5971, and will have mercyH7355 upon his afflictedH6041.
But ZionH6726 saidH559, The LORDH3068 hath forsakenH5800 me, and my LordH136 hath forgottenH7911 me.
Can a womanH802 forgetH7911 her sucking childH5764, that she should not have compassionH7355 on the sonH1121 of her wombH990? yea, they may forgetH7911, yet will I not forgetH7911 thee. {that…: Heb. from having compassion}
Behold, I have gravenH2710 thee upon the palms of my handsH3709; thy wallsH2346 are continuallyH8548 before me.
Thy childrenH1121 shall make hasteH4116; thy destroyersH2040 and they that made thee wasteH2717 shall go forthH3318 of thee.
Lift upH5375 thine eyesH5869 round aboutH5439, and beholdH7200: all these gather themselves togetherH6908, and comeH935 to thee. As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, thou shalt surely clotheH3847 thee with them all, as with an ornamentH5716, and bindH7194 them on thee, as a brideH3618 doeth.
For thy wasteH2723 and thy desolate placesH8074, and the landH776 of thy destructionH2035, shall even now be too narrowH3334 by reason of the inhabitantsH3427, and they that swallowed thee upH1104 shall be far awayH7368.
The childrenH1121 which thou shalt have, after thou hast lostH7923 the other, shall sayH559 again in thine earsH241, The placeH4725 is too straitH6862 for me: giveH5066 placeH4725 to me that I may dwellH3427.
Then shalt thou sayH559 in thine heartH3824, Who hath begottenH3205 me these, seeing I have lost my childrenH7921, and am desolateH1565, a captiveH1540, and removing to and froH5493? and who hath brought upH1431 these? Behold, I was leftH7604 alone; these, whereH375 had they been?
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069, Behold, I will lift upH5375 mine handH3027 to the GentilesH1471, and set upH7311 my standardH5251 to the peopleH5971: and they shall bringH935 thy sonsH1121 in their armsH2684, and thy daughtersH1323 shall be carriedH5375 upon their shouldersH3802. {arms: Heb. bosom}
And kingsH4428 shall be thy nursing fathersH539, and their queensH8282 thy nursing mothersH3243: they shall bow downH7812 to thee with their faceH639 toward the earthH776, and lick upH3897 the dustH6083 of thy feetH7272; and thou shalt knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068: for they shall not be ashamedH954 that waitH6960 for me. {nursing fathers: Heb. nourishers} {queens: Heb. princesses}
Shall the preyH4455 be takenH3947 from the mightyH1368, or the lawfulH6662 captiveH7628 deliveredH4422? {lawful…: Heb. captivity of the just}
But thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Even the captivesH7628 of the mightyH1368 shall be taken awayH3947, and the preyH4455 of the terribleH6184 shall be deliveredH4422: for I will contendH7378 with him that contendethH3401 with thee, and I will saveH3467 thy childrenH1121. {captives: Heb. captivity}
And I will feedH398 them that oppressH3238 thee with their own fleshH1320; and they shall be drunkenH7937 with their own bloodH1818, as with sweet wineH6071: and all fleshH1320 shall knowH3045 that I the LORDH3068 am thy SaviourH3467 and thy RedeemerH1350, the mighty OneH46 of JacobH3290. {sweet: or, new}
Until the timeH6256 that his wordH1697 cameH935: the wordH565 of the LORDH3068 triedH6884 him.
But his bowH7198 abodeH3427 in strengthH386, and the armsH2220 of his handsH3027 were made strongH6339 by the handsH3027 of the mightyH46 God of JacobH3290; (from thence is the shepherdH7462, the stoneH68 of IsraelH3478:)
