WhereforeG5105 seeing we alsoG2532 areG2192 compassed aboutG4029+G2254 with so greatG5118 a cloudG3509 of witnessesG3144, letG659 usG2249 lay asideG659 everyG3956 weightG3591, andG2532 the sinG266 which doth so easily besetG2139 us, and let us runG5143 withG1223 patienceG5281 the raceG73 that is set beforeG4295 usG2254,
LookingG872 untoG1519 JesusG2424 the authorG747 andG2532 finisherG5051 of our faithG4102; whoG3739 forG473 the joyG5479 that was set beforeG4295 himG846 enduredG5278 the crossG4716, despisingG2706 the shameG152, andG5037 is set downG2523 atG1722 the right handG1188 of the throneG2362 of GodG2316. {author: or, beginner}
ForG1063 considerG357 him that enduredG5278 suchG5108 contradictionG485 ofG5259 sinnersG268 againstG1519 himselfG846, lestG3363 ye be weariedG2577 and faintG1590 in yourG5216 mindsG5590.
Ye haveG478 not yetG3768 resistedG478 untoG3360 bloodG129, strivingG464 againstG4314 sinG266.
AndG2532 ye have forgottenG1585 the exhortationG3874 whichG3748 speakethG1256 unto youG5213 asG5613 unto childrenG5207, MyG3450 sonG5207, despiseG3643 notG3361 thouG3643 the chasteningG3809 of the LordG2962, norG3366 faintG1590 when thou art rebukedG1651 ofG5259 himG846:
ForG1063 whomG3739 the LordG2962 lovethG25 he chastenethG3811, andG1161 scourgethG3146 everyG3956 sonG5207 whomG3739 he receivethG3858.
IfG1487 ye endureG5278 chasteningG3809, GodG2316 dealethG4374 with youG5213 asG5613 with sonsG5207; forG1063 whatG5101 sonG5207 is heG2076 whomG3739 the fatherG3962 chastenethG3811 notG3756?
ButG1161 ifG1487 ye beG2075 withoutG5565 chastisementG3809, whereofG3739 allG3956 areG1096 partakersG3353, thenG686 are yeG2075 bastardsG3541, andG2532 notG3756 sonsG5207.
FurthermoreG1534+G3303 we have hadG2192 fathersG3962 of ourG2257 fleshG4561 which correctedG3810 us, andG2532 we gave them reverenceG1788: shall weG5293 notG3756 muchG4183 ratherG3123 be in subjectionG5293 unto the FatherG3962 of spiritsG4151, andG2532 liveG2198?
ForG1063 they verilyG3303 forG4314 a fewG3641 daysG2250 chastenedG3811 us afterG2596 their ownG846 pleasureG1380; butG1161 he forG1909 our profitG4851, thatG1519 we might be partakersG3335 of hisG846 holinessG41. {after…: or, as seemed good, or, meet to them}
NowG1161 noG3956+G3756 chasteningG3809 forG4314+G3303 the presentG3918 seemethG1380 to beG1511 joyousG5479, butG235 grievousG3077: neverthelessG1161 afterwardG5305 it yieldethG591 the peaceableG1516 fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 unto them which are exercisedG1128 therebyG1223+G846.
WhereforeG1352 lift upG461 the handsG5495 which hang downG3935, andG2532 the feebleG3886 kneesG1119;
AndG2532 makeG4160 straightG3717 pathsG5163 for yourG5216 feetG4228, lest thatG3363 which is lameG5560 be turned out of the wayG1624; butG1161 let itG2390 ratherG3123 be healedG2390. {straight: or, even}
FollowG1377 peaceG1515 withG3326 allG3956 men, andG2532 holinessG38, withoutG5565 whichG3739 no manG3762 shall seeG3700 the LordG2962:
Looking diligentlyG1983 lestG3361 any manG5100 failG5302 ofG575 the graceG5485 of GodG2316; lestG3361 anyG5100 rootG4491 of bitternessG4088 springingG5453 upG507 troubleG1776 you, andG2532 therebyG1223+G5026 manyG4183 be defiledG3392; {fail…: or, fall from}
LestG3361 there be anyG5100 fornicatorG4205, orG2228 profane personG952, asG5613 EsauG2269, whoG3739 forG473 oneG3391 morsel of meatG1035 soldG591 hisG846 birthrightG4415.
ForG1063 ye knowG2467 howG3754 that afterwardG2532+G3347, when he wouldG2309 have inheritedG2816 the blessingG2129, he was rejectedG593: forG1063 he foundG2147 noG3756 placeG5117 of repentanceG3341, thoughG2539 he soughtG1567 itG846 carefullyG1567 withG3326 tearsG1144. {place…: or, way to change his mind}
ForG1063 ye areG4334 notG3756 comeG4334 unto the mountG3735 that might be touchedG5584, andG2532 that burnedG2545 with fireG4442, norG2532 unto blacknessG1105, andG2532 darknessG4655, andG2532 tempestG2366,
AndG2532 the soundG2279 of a trumpetG4536, andG2532 the voiceG5456 of wordsG4487; whichG3739 voice they that heardG191 intreatedG3868 that the wordG3056 shouldG4369 notG3361 be spokenG4369 to themG846 any moreG3361:
(ForG1063 they couldG5342 notG3756 endureG5342 that which was commandedG1291, And if so much asG2579 a beastG2342 touchG2345 the mountainG3735, it shall be stonedG3036, orG2228 thrust throughG2700 with a dartG1002:
AndG2532 soG3779 terribleG5398 wasG2258 the sightG5324, that MosesG3475 saidG2036, I exceedingly fearG1630+G1510 andG2532 quakeG1790:)
ButG235 ye are comeG4334 unto mountG3735 SionG4622, andG2532 unto the cityG4172 of the livingG2198 GodG2316, the heavenlyG2032 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 to an innumerable companyG3461 of angelsG32,
To the general assemblyG3831 andG2532 churchG1577 of the firstbornG4416, which are writtenG583 inG1722 heavenG3772, andG2532 to GodG2316 the JudgeG2923 of allG3956, andG2532 to the spiritsG4151 of just menG1342 made perfectG5048, {written: or, enrolled}
AndG2532 to JesusG2424 the mediatorG3316 of the newG3501 covenantG1242, andG2532 to the bloodG129 of sprinklingG4473, that speakethG2980 better thingsG2909 thanG3844 that of AbelG6. {covenant: or, testament}
SeeG991 that ye refuseG3868 notG3361 him that speakethG2980. ForG1063 ifG1487 theyG1565 escapedG5343 notG3756 who refused himG3868 that spakeG5537 onG1909 earthG1093, muchG4183 moreG3123 shall not weG2249 escape, if we turn away from himG654 that speaketh fromG575 heavenG3772:
WhoseG3739 voiceG5456 thenG5119 shookG4531 the earthG1093: butG1161 nowG3568 he hath promisedG1861, sayingG3004, YetG2089 once moreG530 IG1473 shakeG4579 notG3756 the earthG1093 onlyG3440, butG235 alsoG2532 heavenG3772.
AndG1161 this word, YetG2089 once moreG530, signifiethG1213 the removingG3331 of those things that are shakenG4531, asG5613 of things that are madeG4160, thatG2443 those things which cannotG3361 be shakenG4531 may remainG3306. {are shaken: or, may be shaken}
WhereforeG1352 we receivingG3880 a kingdomG932 which cannot be movedG761, let us haveG2192 graceG5485, wherebyG1223+G3739 we may serveG3000 GodG2316 acceptablyG2102 withG3326 reverenceG127 andG2532 godly fearG2124: {let…: or, let us hold fast}
ForG2532+G1063 ourG2257 GodG2316 is a consumingG2654 fireG4442.
ButG235 noneG3762 of these thingsG3056 move meG4160, neitherG3761 count IG2192 myG3450 lifeG5590 dearG5093 unto myselfG1683, soG5613 that I might finishG5048 myG3450 courseG1408 withG3326 joyG5479, andG2532 the ministryG1248, whichG3739 I have receivedG2983 ofG3844 the LordG2962 JesusG2424, to testifyG1263 the gospelG2098 of the graceG5485 of GodG2316.
I have foughtG75 a goodG2570 fightG73, I have finishedG5055 my courseG1408, I have keptG5083 the faithG4102:
Know yeG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 they which runG5143 inG1722 a raceG4712 runG5143 allG3956+G3303, butG1161 oneG1520 receivethG2983 the prizeG1017? SoG3779 runG5143, thatG2443 ye may obtainG2638.
AndG1161 every manG3956 that striveth for the masteryG75 is temperateG1467 in all thingsG3956+G3303. NowG3767 theyG1565 do it toG2443 obtainG2983 a corruptibleG5349 crownG4735; butG1161 weG2249 an incorruptibleG862.
I pressG1377 towardG2596 the markG4649 forG1909 the prizeG1017 of the highG507 callingG2821 of GodG2316 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
For thou wilt not leaveH5800 my soulH5315 in hellH7585; neither wilt thou sufferH5414 thine Holy OneH2623 to seeH7200 corruptionH7845.
Thou wilt shewH3045 me the pathH734 of lifeH2416: in thy presenceH6440 is fulnessH7648 of joyH8057; at thy right handH3225 there are pleasuresH5273 for evermoreH5331.
AndG1161 ifG1487 childrenG5043, thenG2532 heirsG2818; heirsG2818 of GodG3303+G2316, andG1161 joint-heirsG4789 with ChristG5547; if so beG1512 that we suffer withG4841 him, thatG2443 we may beG4888 alsoG2532 glorified togetherG4888.
ButG1161 call to remembranceG363 the formerG4386 daysG2250, inG1722 whichG3739, after ye were illuminatedG5461, ye enduredG5278 a greatG4183 fightG119 of afflictionsG3804;
PartlyG5124+G3303, whilst ye were made a gazingstockG2301 bothG5037 by reproachesG3680 andG2532 afflictionsG2347; andG1161 partlyG5124, whilst ye becameG1096 companionsG2844 of them that wereG390 soG3779 usedG390.
ForG2532+G1063 ye had compassionG4834 of me in myG3450 bondsG1199, andG2532 tookG4327 joyfullyG3326+G5479 the spoilingG724 of yourG5216 goodsG5224, knowingG1097 inG1722 yourselvesG1438 that ye haveG2192 inG1722 heavenG3772 a betterG2909 andG2532 an enduringG3306 substanceG5223.
He withdrawethH1639 not his eyesH5869 from the righteousH6662: but with kingsH4428 are they on the throneH3678; yea, he doth establishH3427 them for everH5331, and they are exaltedH1361.
My sonH1121, despiseH3988 not the chasteningH4148 of the LORDH3068; neither be wearyH6973 of his correctionH8433:
For whom the LORDH3068 lovethH157 he correctethH3198; even as a fatherH1 the sonH1121 in whom he delightethH7521.
AndG1161 we knowG1492 that all thingsG3956 work togetherG4903 forG1519 goodG18 to them thatG3754 loveG25 GodG2316, to them who areG5607 the calledG2822 accordingG2596 to his purposeG4286.
Then shall the dustH6083 returnH7725 to the earthH776 as it was: and the spiritH7307 shall returnH7725 unto GodH430 who gaveH5414 it.
And they fellH5307 upon their facesH6440, and saidH559, O GodH410, the GodH430 of the spiritsH7307 of all fleshH1320, shall oneH259 manH376 sinH2398, and wilt thou be wrothH7107 with all the congregationH5712?
Let the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of the spiritsH7307 of all fleshH1320, setH6485 a manH376 over the congregationH5712,
AndG1161 notG3756 onlyG3440 so, butG235 we gloryG2744 inG1722 tribulationsG2347 alsoG2532: knowingG1492 thatG3754 tribulationG2347 workethG2716 patienceG5281;
AndG1161 patienceG5281, experienceG1382; andG1161 experienceG1382, hopeG1680:
AndG1161 hopeG1680 makethG2617 notG3756 ashamedG2617; becauseG3754 the loveG26 of GodG2316 is shed abroadG1632 inG1722 ourG2257 heartsG2588 byG1223 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 whichG3588 is givenG1325 unto usG2254.
What shall I sayH1696? he hath both spokenH559 unto me, and himself hath doneH6213 it: I shall go softlyH1718 all my yearsH8141 in the bitternessH4751 of my soulH5315.
O LordH136, by these things men liveH2421, and in all these things is the lifeH2416 of my spiritH7307: so wilt thou recoverH2492 me, and make me to liveH2421.
He withdrawethH1639 not his eyesH5869 from the righteousH6662: but with kingsH4428 are they on the throneH3678; yea, he doth establishH3427 them for everH5331, and they are exaltedH1361.
And if they be boundH631 in fettersH2131, and be holdenH3920 in cordsH2256 of afflictionH6040;
Then he shewethH5046 them their workH6467, and their transgressionsH6588 that they have exceededH1396.
He openethH1540 also their earH241 to disciplineH4148, and commandethH559 that they returnH7725 from iniquityH205.
If they obeyH8085 and serveH5647 him, they shall spendH3615 their daysH3117 in prosperityH2896, and their yearsH8141 in pleasuresH5273.
But if they obeyH8085 not, they shall perishH5674 by the swordH7973, and they shall dieH1478 without knowledgeH1847. {perish: Heb. pass away}
PaulG3972, an apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 byG1223 the willG2307 of GodG2316, to the saintsG40 which areG5607 atG1722 EphesusG2181, andG2532 to the faithfulG4103 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
GraceG5485 be to youG5213, andG2532 peaceG1515, fromG575 GodG2316 ourG2257 FatherG3962, andG2532 from the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
BlessedG2128 be the GodG2316 andG2532 FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whoG3588 hath blessedG2127 usG2248 withG1722 allG3956 spiritualG4152 blessingsG2129 inG1722 heavenlyG2032 places inG1722 ChristG5547: {places: or, things}
According asG2531 he hath chosenG1586 usG2248 inG1722 himG846 beforeG4253 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889, that weG2248 should beG1511 holyG40 andG2532 without blameG299 beforeG2714 himG846 inG1722 loveG26:
Having predestinatedG4309 usG2248 untoG1519 the adoption of childrenG5206 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 toG1519 himselfG846, accordingG2596 to the good pleasureG2107 of hisG846 willG2307,
ToG1519 the praiseG1868 of the gloryG1391 of hisG846 graceG5485, whereinG1722+G3739 he hath madeG5487 usG2248 acceptedG5487 inG1722 the belovedG25.
InG1722 whomG3739 we haveG2192 redemptionG629 throughG1223 hisG846 bloodG129, the forgivenessG859 of sinsG3900, accordingG2596 to the richesG4149 of hisG846 graceG5485;
WhereinG3739 he hath aboundedG4052 towardG1519 usG2248 inG1722 allG3956 wisdomG4678 andG2532 prudenceG5428;
Having made knownG1107 unto usG2254 the mysteryG3466 of hisG846 willG2307, according toG2596 hisG846 good pleasureG2107 whichG3739 he hath purposedG4388 inG1722 himselfG846:
That inG1519 the dispensationG3622 of the fulnessG4138 of timesG2540 he might gather together in oneG346 all thingsG3956 inG1722 ChristG5547, bothG5037 whichG3588 are inG1722 heavenG3772, andG2532 whichG3588 are onG1909 earthG1093; even inG1722 himG846: {heaven: Gr. the heavens}
InG1722 whomG3739 alsoG2532 we have obtained an inheritanceG2820, being predestinatedG4309 according toG2596 the purposeG4286 of him who workethG1754 all thingsG3956 afterG2596 the counselG1012 of his ownG846 willG2307:
ThatG1519 weG2248 should beG1511 toG1519 the praiseG1868 of hisG846 gloryG1391, whoG3588 first trustedG4276 inG1722 ChristG5547. {trusted: or, hoped}
InG1722 whomG3739 yeG5210 alsoG2532 trusted, after that ye heardG191 the wordG3056 of truthG225, the gospelG2098 of yourG5216 salvationG4991: inG1722 whomG3739 alsoG2532 after that ye believedG4100, ye were sealed withG4972 that holyG40 SpiritG4151 of promiseG1860,
WhichG3739 isG2076 the earnestG728 of ourG2257 inheritanceG2817 untilG1519 the redemptionG629 of the purchased possessionG4047, untoG1519 the praiseG1868 of hisG846 gloryG1391.
WhereforeG1223+G5124 I alsoG2504, after I heardG191 ofG2596 yourG5209 faithG4102 inG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424, andG2532 loveG26 untoG1519 allG3956 the saintsG40,
CeaseG3973 notG3756 to give thanksG2168 forG5228 youG5216, makingG4160 mentionG3417 of youG5216 inG1909 myG3450 prayersG4335;
ThatG2443 the GodG2316 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, the FatherG3962 of gloryG1391, may giveG1325 unto youG5213 the spiritG4151 of wisdomG4678 andG2532 revelationG602 inG1722 the knowledgeG1922 of himG846: {in…: or, for the acknowledgement}
The eyesG3788 of yourG5216 understandingG1271 being enlightenedG5461; thatG1519 yeG5209 may knowG1492 whatG5101 isG2076 the hopeG1680 of hisG846 callingG2821, andG2532 whatG5101 the richesG4149 of the gloryG1391 of hisG846 inheritanceG2817 inG1722 the saintsG40,
AndG2532 whatG5101 is the exceedingG5235 greatnessG3174 of hisG846 powerG1411 toG1519 us-wardG2248 whoG3588 believeG4100, according toG2596 the workingG1753 of hisG846 mightyG2479 powerG2904, {his mighty power: Gr. the might of his power}
WhichG3739 he wroughtG1754 inG1722 ChristG5547, when he raisedG1453 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 setG2523 him atG1722 his ownG846 right handG1188 inG1722 the heavenlyG2032 places,
Far aboveG5231 allG3956 principalityG746, andG2532 powerG1849, andG2532 mightG1411, andG2532 dominionG2963, andG2532 everyG3956 nameG3686 that is namedG3687, notG3756 onlyG3440 inG1722 thisG5129 worldG165, butG235 alsoG2532 inG1722 that which is to comeG3195:
AndG2532 hath putG5293 allG3956 things underG5259 hisG846 feetG4228, andG2532 gaveG1325 himG846 to be the headG2776 overG5228 allG3956 things to the churchG1577,
WhichG3748 isG2076 hisG846 bodyG4983, the fulnessG4138 of him that fillethG4137 allG3956 inG1722 allG3956.
There is no peaceH7965, saithH559 my GodH430, to the wickedH7563.
And the workH4639 of righteousnessH6666 shall be peaceH7965; and the effectH5656 of righteousnessH6666 quietnessH8252 and assuranceH983 forH5704 everH5769.
I willG1014 thereforeG3767 that menG435 prayG4336 everyG1722+G3956 whereG5117, lifting upG1869 holyG3741 handsG5495, withoutG5565 wrathG3709 andG2532 doubtingG1261.
Let thine eyesH5869 lookH5027 right onH5227, and let thine eyelidsH6079 look straightH3474 before thee.
PonderH6424 the pathH4570 of thy feetH7272, and let all thy waysH1870 be establishedH3559. {let…: or, all thy ways shall be ordered aright}
Be carefulG3309 for nothingG3367; butG235 inG1722 every thingG3956 by prayerG4335 andG2532 supplicationG1162 withG3326 thanksgivingG2169 letG1107 yourG5216 requestsG155 be made knownG1107 untoG4314 GodG2316.
AndG2532 the peaceG1515 of GodG2316, whichG3588 passethG5242 allG3956 understandingG3563, shall keepG5432 yourG5216 heartsG2588 andG2532 mindsG5216+G3540 throughG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
AndG2532 letG1018 the peaceG1515 of GodG2316 ruleG1018 inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588, toG1519 the whichG3739 alsoG2532 ye are calledG2564 inG1722 oneG1520 bodyG4983; andG2532 be yeG1096 thankfulG2170.
AndG2532 your feetG4228 shodG5265 withG1722 the preparationG2091 of the gospelG2098 of peaceG1515;
BlessedG3107 are the peacemakersG1518: forG3754 theyG846 shall be calledG2564 the childrenG5207 of GodG2316.
WhereforeG1352 come outG1831 fromG1537 amongG3319 themG846, andG2532 be ye separateG873, saithG3004 the LordG2962, andG2532 touchG680 notG3361 the uncleanG169 thing; andG2504 I will receiveG1523 youG5209,
AndG2532 will beG2071+G1519 a FatherG3962 unto youG5213, andG2532 yeG5210 shall beG2071 myG3427 sonsG5207+G1519 andG2532 daughtersG2364, saithG3004 the LordG2962 AlmightyG3841.
HavingG2192 thereforeG3767 theseG5025 promisesG1860, dearly belovedG27, let us cleanseG2511 ourselvesG1438 fromG575 allG3956 filthinessG3436 of the fleshG4561 andG2532 spiritG4151, perfectingG2005 holinessG42 inG1722 the fearG5401 of GodG2316.
ButG235 asG2596 he which hath calledG2564 youG5209 is holyG40, soG2532 beG1096 yeG846 holyG40 inG1722 allG3956 manner of conversationG391;
BecauseG1360 it is writtenG1125, Be yeG1096 holyG40; forG3754 IG1473 amG1510 holyG40.
JudeG2455, the servantG1401 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG1161 brotherG80 of JamesG2385, to them that are sanctifiedG37 byG1722 GodG2316 the FatherG3962, andG2532 preservedG5083 in JesusG2424 ChristG5547, and calledG2822:
BlessedG3107 are the pureG2513 in heartG2588: forG3754 theyG846 shall seeG3700 GodG2316.
AndG2532 every manG3956 that hathG2192 thisG5026 hopeG1680 inG1909 himG846 purifiethG48 himselfG1438, even asG2531 heG1565 isG2076 pureG53.
ButG1161 nowG3570 being made freeG1659 fromG575 sinG266, andG1161 become servantsG1402 to GodG2316, ye haveG2192 yourG5216 fruitG2590 untoG1519 holinessG38, andG1161 the endG5056 everlastingG166 lifeG2222.
And ye have seenH7200 their abominationsH8251, and their idolsH1544, woodH6086 and stoneH68, silverH3701 and goldH2091, which were among them:) {idols: Heb. dungy gods}
Lest there should beH3426 among you manH376, or womanH802, or familyH4940, or tribeH7626, whose heartH3824 turneth awayH6437 this dayH3117 from the LORDH3068 our GodH430, to goH3212 and serveH5647 the godsH430 of these nationsH1471; lest there should beH3426 among you a rootH8328 that bearethH6509 gallH7219 and wormwoodH3939; {gall: or, a poisonous herb: Heb. rosh}
My peopleH5971 askH7592 counsel at their stocksH6086, and their staffH4731 declarethH5046 unto them: for the spiritH7307 of whoredomsH2183 hath caused them to errH8582, and they have gone a whoringH2181 from under their GodH430.
NeitherG3366 let us commit fornicationG4203, asG2531 someG5100 of themG846 committedG4203, andG2532 fellG4098 inG1722 oneG3391 dayG2250 threeG5140 and twentyG1501 thousandG5505.
And JacobH3290 sodH2102 pottageH5138: and EsauH6215 cameH935 from the fieldH7704, and he was faintH5889:
And EsauH6215 saidH559 to JacobH3290, FeedH3938 me, I pray thee, withH4480 that sameH122 redH122 pottage; for I am faintH5889: therefore was his nameH8034 calledH7121 EdomH123. {with…: Heb. with that red, with that red pottage} {Edom: that is Red}
And JacobH3290 saidH559, SellH4376 me this dayH3117 thy birthrightH1062.
And EsauH6215 saidH559, Behold, I am at the pointH1980 to dieH4191: and what profit shall this birthrightH1062 do to me? {at…: Heb. going to die}
And JacobH3290 saidH559, SwearH7650 to me this dayH3117; and he swareH7650 unto him: and he soldH4376 his birthrightH1062 unto JacobH3290.
Then JacobH3290 gaveH5414 EsauH6215 breadH3899 and pottageH5138 of lentilesH5742; and he did eatH398 and drinkH8354, and rose upH6965, and went his wayH3212: thus EsauH6215 despisedH959 his birthrightH1062.
And EsauH6215 saidH559 unto his fatherH1, Hast thou but oneH259 blessingH1293, my fatherH1? blessH1288 me, even me also, O my fatherH1. And EsauH6215 lifted upH5375 his voiceH6963, and weptH1058.
In the thirdH7992 monthH2320, when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 were gone forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, the same dayH3117 cameH935 they into the wildernessH4057 of SinaiH5514.
For they were departedH5265 from RephidimH7508, and were comeH935 to the desertH4057 of SinaiH5514, and had pitchedH2583 in the wildernessH4057; and there IsraelH3478 campedH2583 before the mountH2022.
And MosesH4872 went upH5927 unto GodH430, and the LORDH3068 calledH7121 unto him out of the mountainH2022, sayingH559, Thus shalt thou sayH559 to the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, and tellH5046 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478;
Ye have seenH7200 what I didH6213 unto the EgyptiansH4714, and how I bareH5375 you on eagles'H5404 wingsH3671, and broughtH935 you unto myself.
Now therefore, if ye will obeyH8085 my voiceH6963 indeedH8085, and keepH8104 my covenantH1285, then ye shall be a peculiar treasureH5459 unto me above all peopleH5971: for all the earthH776 is mine:
And ye shall be unto me a kingdomH4467 of priestsH3548, and an holyH6918 nationH1471. These are the wordsH1697 which thou shalt speakH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And MosesH4872 cameH935 and calledH7121 for the eldersH2205 of the peopleH5971, and laidH7760 before their facesH6440 all these wordsH1697 which the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 him.
And all the peopleH5971 answeredH6030 togetherH3162, and saidH559, All that the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 we will doH6213. And MosesH4872 returnedH7725 the wordsH1697 of the peopleH5971 unto the LORDH3068.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Lo, I comeH935 unto thee in a thickH5645 cloudH6051, that the peopleH5971 may hearH8085 when I speakH1696 with thee, and believeH539 thee for everH5769. And MosesH4872 toldH5046 the wordsH1697 of the peopleH5971 unto the LORDH3068.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, GoH3212 unto the peopleH5971, and sanctifyH6942 them to dayH3117 and to morrowH4279, and let them washH3526 their clothesH8071,
And be readyH3559 against the thirdH7992 dayH3117: for the thirdH7992 dayH3117 the LORDH3068 will come downH3381 in the sightH5869 of all the peopleH5971 upon mountH2022 SinaiH5514.
And thou shalt set boundsH1379 unto the peopleH5971 round aboutH5439, sayingH559, Take heedH8104 to yourselves, that ye go not upH5927 into the mountH2022, or touchH5060 the borderH7097 of it: whosoever touchethH5060 the mountH2022 shall be surelyH4191 put to deathH4191:
There shall not an handH3027 touchH5060 it, but he shall surelyH5619 be stonedH5619, orH176 shotH3384 throughH3384; whether it be beastH929 orH518 manH376, it shall not liveH2421: when the trumpetH3104 soundeth longH4900, they shall come upH5927 to the mountH2022. {trumpet: or, cornet}
And MosesH4872 went downH3381 from the mountH2022 unto the peopleH5971, and sanctifiedH6942 the peopleH5971; and they washedH3526 their clothesH8071.
And he saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, BeH1961 readyH3559 against the thirdH7969 dayH3117: comeH5066 not at your wivesH802.
And it came to pass on the thirdH7992 dayH3117 in the morningH1242, that there were thundersH6963 and lightningsH1300, and a thickH3515 cloudH6051 upon the mountH2022, and the voiceH6963 of the trumpetH7782 exceedingH3966 loudH2389; so that all the peopleH5971 that was in the campH4264 trembledH2729.
And MosesH4872 brought forthH3318 the peopleH5971 out of the campH4264 to meetH7125 with GodH430; and they stoodH3320 at the netherH8482 part of the mountH2022.
And mountH2022 SinaiH5514 was altogether on a smokeH6225, becauseH6440+H834 the LORDH3068 descendedH3381 upon it in fireH784: and the smokeH6227 thereof ascendedH5927 as the smokeH6227 of a furnaceH3536, and the whole mountH2022 quakedH2729 greatlyH3966.
And when the voiceH6963 of the trumpetH7782 soundedH6963 longH1980, and waxed louderH2390 and louderH3966, MosesH4872 spakeH1696, and GodH430 answeredH6030 him by a voiceH6963.
And the LORDH3068 came downH3381 upon mountH2022 SinaiH5514, on the topH7218 of the mountH2022: and the LORDH3068 calledH7121 MosesH4872 up toH413 the topH7218 of the mountH2022; and MosesH4872 went upH5927.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Go downH3381, chargeH5749 the peopleH5971, lest they break throughH2040 unto the LORDH3068 to gazeH7200, and manyH7227 of them perishH5307. {charge: Heb. contest}
And let the priestsH3548 also, which come nearH5066 to the LORDH3068, sanctifyH6942 themselves, lest the LORDH3068 break forthH6555 upon them.
And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto the LORDH3068, The peopleH5971 cannotH3201 come upH5927 to mountH2022 SinaiH5514: for thou chargedstH5749 us, sayingH559, Set boundsH1379 about the mountH2022, and sanctifyH6942 it.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto him, AwayH3212, get thee downH3381, and thou shalt come upH5927, thou, and AaronH175 with thee: but let not the priestsH3548 and the peopleH5971 break throughH2040 to come upH5927 unto the LORDH3068, lest he break forthH6555 upon them.
So MosesH4872 went downH3381 unto the peopleH5971, and spakeH559 unto them.
And GodH430 spakeH1696 all these wordsH1697, sayingH559,
I am the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, which have broughtH3318 thee out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, out of the houseH1004 of bondageH5650. {bondage: Heb. servants}
Thou shalt have no otherH312 godsH430 before meH6440.
Thou shalt not makeH6213 unto thee any graven imageH6459, or any likenessH8544 of any thing thatH834 is in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, or that is in the earthH776 beneath, or that is in the waterH4325 under the earthH776:
Thou shalt not bow downH7812 thyself to them, nor serveH5647 them: for I the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 am a jealousH7067 GodH410, visitingH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 upon the childrenH1121 unto the thirdH8029 and fourthH7256 generation of them that hateH8130 me;
And shewingH6213 mercyH2617 unto thousandsH505 of them that loveH157 me, and keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687.
Thou shalt not takeH5375 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 in vainH7723; for the LORDH3068 will not hold him guiltlessH5352 that takethH5375 his nameH8034 in vainH7723.
RememberH2142 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, to keep it holyH6942.
SixH8337 daysH3117 shalt thou labourH5647, and doH6213 all thy workH4399:
But the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is the sabbathH7676 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430: in it thou shalt not doH6213 any workH4399, thou, nor thy sonH1121, nor thy daughterH1323, thy manservantH5650, nor thy maidservantH519, nor thy cattleH929, nor thy strangerH1616 that is within thy gatesH8179:
For in sixH8337 daysH3117 the LORDH3068 madeH6213 heavenH8064 and earthH776, the seaH3220, and all that in them is, and restedH5117 the seventhH7637 dayH3117: wherefore the LORDH3068 blessedH1288 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, and hallowedH6942 it.
HonourH3513 thy fatherH1 and thy motherH517: that thy daysH3117 may be longH748 upon the landH127 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee.
Thou shalt not killH7523.
Thou shalt not commit adulteryH5003.
Thou shalt not stealH1589.
Thou shalt not bearH6030 falseH8267 witnessH5707 against thy neighbourH7453.
Thou shalt not covetH2530 thy neighbour'sH7453 houseH1004, thou shalt not covetH2530 thy neighbour'sH7453 wifeH802, nor his manservantH5650, nor his maidservantH519, nor his oxH7794, nor his assH2543, nor any thing that is thy neighbour'sH7453.
And all the peopleH5971 sawH7200 the thunderingsH6963, and the lightningsH3940, and the noiseH6963 of the trumpetH7782, and the mountainH2022 smokingH6226: and when the peopleH5971 sawH7200 it, they removedH5128, and stoodH5975 afar offH7350.
And they saidH559 unto MosesH4872, SpeakH1696 thou with us, and we will hearH8085: but let not GodH430 speakH1696 with us, lest we dieH4191.
And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, FearH3372 not: for GodH430 is comeH935 toH5668 proveH5254 you, and that his fearH3374 may be before your facesH6440, that ye sinH2398 not.
And the peopleH5971 stoodH5975 afar offH7350, and MosesH4872 drew nearH5066 unto the thick darknessH6205 where GodH430 was.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Thus thou shalt sayH559 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, Ye have seenH7200 that I have talkedH1696 with you from heavenH8064.
Ye shall not makeH6213 with me godsH430 of silverH3701, neither shall ye makeH6213 unto you godsH430 of goldH2091.
An altarH4196 of earthH127 thou shalt makeH6213 unto me, and shalt sacrificeH2076 thereon thy burnt offeringsH5930, and thy peace offeringsH8002, thy sheepH6629, and thine oxenH1241: in all placesH4725 where I recordH2142 my nameH8034 I will comeH935 unto thee, and I will blessH1288 thee.
And if thou wilt makeH6213 me an altarH4196 of stoneH68, thou shalt not buildH1129 it of hewn stoneH1496: for if thou lift upH5130 thy toolH2719 upon it, thou hast pollutedH2490 it. {build…: Heb. build them with hewing}
Neither shalt thou go upH5927 by stepsH4609 unto mine altarH4196, that thy nakednessH6172 be not discoveredH1540 thereon.
And the peopleH5971 stoodH5975 afar offH7350, and MosesH4872 drew nearH5066 unto the thick darknessH6205 where GodH430 was.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Thus thou shalt sayH559 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, Ye have seenH7200 that I have talkedH1696 with you from heavenH8064.
According to all that thou desiredstH7592 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 in HorebH2722 in the dayH3117 of the assemblyH6951, sayingH559, Let me not hearH8085 againH3254 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 my GodH430, neither let me seeH7200 this greatH1419 fireH784 any more, that I dieH4191 not.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, They have wellH3190 spoken that which they have spokenH1696.
I will raise them upH6965 a ProphetH5030 from amongH7130 their brethrenH251, like unto thee, and will putH5414 my wordsH1697 in his mouthH6310; and he shall speakH1696 unto them all that I shall commandH6680 him.
And the wordH1697 of SamuelH8050 came to all IsraelH3478. Now IsraelH3478 went outH3318 againstH7125 the PhilistinesH6430 to battleH4421, and pitchedH2583 beside EbenezerH72: and the PhilistinesH6430 pitchedH2583 in AphekH663. {came: or, came to pass: Hebr. was}
And the PhilistinesH6430 put themselves in arrayH6186 againstH7125 IsraelH3478: and when they joinedH5203 battleH4421, IsraelH3478 was smittenH5062 beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430: and they slewH5221 of the armyH4634 in the fieldH7704 about fourH702 thousandH505 menH376. {they joined…: Heb. the battle was spread} {army: Heb. array}
And when the peopleH5971 were comeH935 into the campH4264, the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 saidH559, Wherefore hath the LORDH3068 smittenH5062 us to dayH3117 beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430? Let us fetchH3947 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 out of ShilohH7887 unto us, that, when it comethH935 amongH7130 us, it may saveH3467 us out of the handH3709 of our enemiesH341. {fetch: Heb. take unto us}
So the peopleH5971 sentH7971 to ShilohH7887, that they might bringH5375 from thence the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, which dwellethH3427 between the cherubimsH3742: and the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of EliH5941, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372, were there with the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of GodH430.
And when the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 cameH935 into the campH4264, all IsraelH3478 shoutedH7321 with a greatH1419 shoutH8643, so that the earthH776 rang againH1949.
And when the PhilistinesH6430 heardH8085 the noiseH6963 of the shoutH8643, they saidH559, What meaneth the noiseH6963 of this greatH1419 shoutH8643 in the campH4264 of the HebrewsH5680? And they understoodH3045 that the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 was comeH935 into the campH4264.
And the PhilistinesH6430 were afraidH3372, for they saidH559, GodH430 is comeH935 into the campH4264. And they saidH559, WoeH188 unto us! for there hath not been such a thing heretoforeH865+H8032. {heretofore: Heb. yesterday, or, the third day}
WoeH188 unto us! who shall deliverH5337 us out of the handH3027 of these mightyH117 GodsH430? these are the GodsH430 that smoteH5221 the EgyptiansH4714 with all the plaguesH4347 in the wildernessH4057.
Be strongH2388, and quitH1961 yourselves like menH582, O ye PhilistinesH6430, that ye be not servantsH5647 unto the HebrewsH5680, as they have beenH5647 to you: quitH1961 yourselves like menH582, and fightH3898. {quit…: Heb. be men}
And the PhilistinesH6430 foughtH3898, and IsraelH3478 was smittenH5062, and they fledH5127 every manH376 into his tentH168: and there was a veryH3966 greatH1419 slaughterH4347; for there fellH5307 of IsraelH3478 thirtyH7970 thousandH505 footmenH7273.
And the arkH727 of GodH430 was takenH3947; and the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of EliH5941, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372, were slainH4191. {were slain: Heb. died}
And there ranH7323 a manH376 of BenjaminH1144 out of the armyH4634, and cameH935 to ShilohH7887 the same dayH3117 with his clothesH4055 rentH7167, and with earthH127 upon his headH7218.
And when he cameH935, lo, EliH5941 satH3427 upon a seatH3678 by the waysideH1870+H3027+H3197 watchingH6822: for his heartH3820 trembledH2730 for the arkH727 of GodH430. And when the manH376 cameH935 into the cityH5892, and toldH5046 it, all the cityH5892 cried outH2199.
And when EliH5941 heardH8085 the noiseH6963 of the cryingH6818, he saidH559, What meaneth the noiseH6963 of this tumultH1995? And the manH376 cameH935 in hastilyH4116, and toldH5046 EliH5941.
Now EliH5941 was ninetyH8673 and eightH8083 yearsH8141 oldH1121; and his eyesH5869 were dimH6965, that he couldH3201 not seeH7200. {were dim: Heb. stood}
And the manH376 saidH559 unto EliH5941, I am he that cameH935 out of the armyH4634, and I fledH5127 to dayH3117 out of the armyH4634. And he saidH559, What is there doneH1697, my sonH1121? {is…: Heb. is the thing}
And the messengerH1319 answeredH6030 and saidH559, IsraelH3478 is fledH5127 beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430, and there hath been also a greatH1419 slaughterH4046 among the peopleH5971, and thy twoH8147 sonsH1121 also, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372, are deadH4191, and the arkH727 of GodH430 is takenH3947.
And it came to pass, when he made mentionH2142 of the arkH727 of GodH430, that he fellH5307 from off the seatH3678 backwardH322 byH1157 the sideH3027 of the gateH8179, and his neckH4665 brakeH7665, and he diedH4191: for he was an oldH2204 manH376, and heavyH3513. And he had judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 fortyH705 yearsH8141.
And his daughter in lawH3618, Phinehas'H6372 wifeH802, was with childH2030, near to be deliveredH3205: and when she heardH8085 the tidingsH8052 thatH413 the arkH727 of GodH430 was takenH3947, and that her father in lawH2524 and her husbandH376 were deadH4191, she bowedH3766 herself and travailedH3205; for her painsH6735 cameH2015 upon her. {be delivered: or, cry out} {came: Heb. were turned}
And about the timeH6256 of her deathH4191 the women that stoodH5324 by her saidH1696 unto her, FearH3372 not; for thou hast bornH3205 a sonH1121. But she answeredH6030 not, neither did she regardH7896+H3820 it. {neither…: Heb. set not her heart}
And she namedH7121 the childH5288 IchabodH350, sayingH559, The gloryH3519 is departedH1540 from IsraelH3478: becauseH413 the arkH727 of GodH430 was takenH3947, and because of her father in lawH2524 and her husbandH376. {Ichabod: that is, Where is the glory? or, There is no glory}
And she saidH559, The gloryH3519 is departedH1540 from IsraelH3478: for the arkH727 of GodH430 is takenH3947.
And the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 was in the countryH7704 of the PhilistinesH6430 sevenH7651 monthsH2320.
And the PhilistinesH6430 calledH7121 for the priestsH3548 and the divinersH7080, sayingH559, What shall we doH6213 to the arkH727 of the LORDH3068? tellH3045 us wherewith we shall sendH7971 it to his placeH4725.
And they saidH559, If ye send awayH7971 the arkH727 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, sendH7971 it not emptyH7387; but in any wiseH7725 returnH7725 him a trespass offeringH817: then ye shall be healedH7495, and it shall be knownH3045 to you why his handH3027 is not removedH5493 from you.
Then saidH559 they, What shall be the trespass offeringH817 which we shall returnH7725 to him? They answeredH559, FiveH2568 goldenH2091 emerodsH2914+H6076, and fiveH2568 goldenH2091 miceH5909, according to the numberH4557 of the lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430: for oneH259 plagueH4046 was on you all, and on your lordsH5633. {you: Heb. them}
Wherefore ye shall makeH6213 imagesH6754 of your emerodsH2914+H6076, and imagesH6754 of your miceH5909 that marH7843 the landH776; and ye shall giveH5414 gloryH3519 unto the GodH430 of IsraelH3478: peradventure he will lightenH7043 his handH3027 from off you, and from off your godsH430, and from off your landH776.
Wherefore then do ye hardenH3513 your heartsH3824, as the EgyptiansH4714 and PharaohH6547 hardenedH3513 their heartsH3820? when he had wrought wonderfullyH5953 among them, did they not let the people goH7971, and they departedH3212? {wonderfully: or, reproachfully} {the people: Heb. them}
Now therefore makeH6213 aH259 newH2319 cartH5699, and takeH3947 twoH8147 milchH5763 kineH6510, on which there hath comeH5927 no yokeH5923, and tieH631 the kineH6510 to the cartH5699, and bringH7725 their calvesH1121 homeH1004 from themH310:
And takeH3947 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and layH5414 it upon the cartH5699; and putH7760 the jewelsH3627 of goldH2091, which ye returnH7725 him for a trespass offeringH817, in a cofferH712 by the sideH6654 thereof; and send it awayH7971, that it may goH1980.
And seeH7200, if it goeth upH5927 by the wayH1870 of his own coastH1366 to BethshemeshH1053, then he hath doneH6213 us this greatH1419 evilH7451: but if not, then we shall knowH3045 that it is not his handH3027 that smoteH5060 us: it was a chanceH4745 that happened to usH1961. {he: or, it}
And the menH582 did soH6213; and tookH3947 twoH8147 milchH5763 kineH6510, and tiedH631 them to the cartH5699, and shut upH3607 their calvesH1121 at homeH1004:
And they laidH7760 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 upon the cartH5699, and the cofferH712 with the miceH5909 of goldH2091 and the imagesH6754 of their emerodsH2914.
And the kineH6510 took the straightH3474 wayH1870 to the wayH1870 of BethshemeshH1053, and went alongH1980 the highwayH4546+H259, lowingH1600 as they wentH1980, and turned not asideH5493 to the right handH3225 or to the leftH8040; and the lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430 wentH1980 afterH310 them unto the borderH1366 of BethshemeshH1053.
And they of BethshemeshH1053 were reapingH7114 their wheatH2406 harvestH7105 in the valleyH6010: and they lifted upH5375 their eyesH5869, and sawH7200 the arkH727, and rejoicedH8055 to seeH7200 it.
And the cartH5699 cameH935 into the fieldH7704 of JoshuaH3091, a BethshemiteH1030, and stoodH5975 there, where there was a greatH1419 stoneH68: and they claveH1234 the woodH6086 of the cartH5699, and offeredH5927 the kineH6510 a burnt offeringH5930 unto the LORDH3068.
And the LevitesH3881 took downH3381 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and the cofferH712 that was with it, wherein the jewelsH3627 of goldH2091 were, and putH7760 them on the greatH1419 stoneH68: and the menH582 of BethshemeshH1053 offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 and sacrificedH2076 sacrificesH2077 the same dayH3117 unto the LORDH3068.
And when the fiveH2568 lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430 had seenH7200 it, they returnedH7725 to EkronH6138 the same dayH3117.
And these are the goldenH2091 emerodsH2914 which the PhilistinesH6430 returnedH7725 for a trespass offeringH817 unto the LORDH3068; for AshdodH795 oneH259, for GazaH5804 oneH259, for AskelonH831 oneH259, for GathH1661 oneH259, for EkronH6138 oneH259;
And the goldenH2091 miceH5909, according to the numberH4557 of all the citiesH5892 of the PhilistinesH6430 belonging to the fiveH2568 lordsH5633, both of fencedH4013 citiesH5892, and of countryH6521 villagesH3724, even unto the greatH1419 stone of AbelH59, whereon they set downH3240 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068: which stone remaineth unto this dayH3117 in the fieldH7704 of JoshuaH3091, the BethshemiteH1030. {great…: or, great stone}
And he smoteH5221 the menH376 of BethshemeshH1053, because they had lookedH7200 into the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, even he smoteH5221 of the peopleH5971 fiftyH2572 thousandH505 and threescore and tenH7657 menH582: and the peopleH5971 lamentedH56, because the LORDH3068 had smittenH5221 many of the peopleH5971 with a greatH1419 slaughterH4347.
And the menH582 of BethshemeshH1053 saidH559, Who is ableH3201 to standH5975 beforeH6440 this holyH6918 LORDH3068 GodH430? and to whom shall he go upH5927 from us?
And they sentH7971 messengersH4397 to the inhabitantsH3427 of KirjathjearimH7157, sayingH559, The PhilistinesH6430 have brought againH7725 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068; come ye downH3381, and fetch it upH5927 to you.
And the menH582 of KirjathjearimH7157 cameH935, and fetched upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and broughtH935 it into the houseH1004 of AbinadabH41 in the hillH1389, and sanctifiedH6942 EleazarH499 his sonH1121 to keepH8104 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068.
Then cameH935 all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to DavidH1732 unto HebronH2275, and spakeH559, sayingH559, Behold, we are thy boneH6106 and thy fleshH1320.
Also in time pastH865+H8032, when SaulH7586 was kingH4428 over us, thou wast he that leddest outH3318 and broughtest inH935 IsraelH3478: and the LORDH3068 saidH559 to thee, Thou shalt feedH7462 my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and thou shalt be a captainH5057 over IsraelH3478.
So all the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 cameH935 to the kingH4428 to HebronH2275; and kingH4428 DavidH1732 madeH3772 a leagueH1285 with them in HebronH2275 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: and they anointedH4886 DavidH1732 kingH4428 over IsraelH3478.
DavidH1732 was thirtyH7970 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 fortyH705 yearsH8141.
In HebronH2275 he reignedH4427 over JudahH3063 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 and sixH8337 monthsH2320: and in JerusalemH3389 he reignedH4427 thirtyH7970 and threeH7969 yearsH8141 over all IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063.
And the kingH4428 and his menH582 wentH3212 to JerusalemH3389 unto the JebusitesH2983, the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776: which spakeH559 unto DavidH1732, sayingH559, Except thou take awayH5493 the blindH5787 and the lameH6455, thou shalt not come inH935 hither: thinkingH559, DavidH1732 cannot come inH935 hither. {thinking…: or, saying David shall not, etc}
Nevertheless DavidH1732 tookH3920 the strong holdH4686 of ZionH6726: the same is the cityH5892 of DavidH1732.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 on that dayH3117, Whosoever getteth upH5060 to the gutterH6794, and smitethH5221 the JebusitesH2983, and the lameH6455 and the blindH5787, that are hatedH8130 of David'sH1732 soulH5315, he shall be chief and captain. Wherefore they saidH559, The blindH5787 and the lameH6455 shall not comeH935 into the houseH1004. {Wherefore…: or, Because they had said, even the blind and the lame, He shall not come into the house}
So DavidH1732 dweltH3427 in the fortH4686, and calledH7121 it the cityH5892 of DavidH1732. And DavidH1732 builtH1129 round aboutH5439 from MilloH4407 and inwardH1004.
And DavidH1732 wentH3212 onH1980, and grew greatH1419, and the LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635 was with him. {went…: Heb. went, going and growing}
And HiramH2438 kingH4428 of TyreH6865 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to DavidH1732, and cedarH730 treesH6086, and carpentersH2796, and masonsH7023+H68: and they builtH1129 DavidH1732 an houseH1004. {masons: Heb. hewers of the stone of the wall}
And DavidH1732 perceivedH3045 that the LORDH3068 had establishedH3559 him kingH4428 over IsraelH3478, and that he had exaltedH5375 his kingdomH4467 for his peopleH5971 Israel'sH3478 sake.
And DavidH1732 tookH3947 him more concubinesH6370 and wivesH802 out of JerusalemH3389, afterH310 he was comeH935 from HebronH2275: and there were yet sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323 bornH3205 to DavidH1732.
And these be the namesH8034 of those that were bornH3209 unto him in JerusalemH3389; ShammuaH8051, and ShobabH7727, and NathanH5416, and SolomonH8010,
IbharH2984 also, and ElishuaH474, and NephegH5298, and JaphiaH3309,
And ElishamaH476, and EliadaH450, and EliphaletH467.
But when the PhilistinesH6430 heardH8085 that they had anointedH4886 DavidH1732 kingH4428 over IsraelH3478, all the PhilistinesH6430 came upH5927 to seekH1245 DavidH1732; and DavidH1732 heardH8085 of it, and went downH3381 to the holdH4686.
The PhilistinesH6430 also cameH935 and spreadH5203 themselves in the valleyH6010 of RephaimH7497.
And DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 of the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Shall I go upH5927 to the PhilistinesH6430? wilt thou deliverH5414 them into mine handH3027? And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, Go upH5927: for I will doubtlessH5414 deliverH5414 the PhilistinesH6430 into thine handH3027.
And DavidH1732 cameH935 to BaalperazimH1188, and DavidH1732 smoteH5221 them there, and saidH559, The LORDH3068 hath broken forthH6555 upon mine enemiesH341 beforeH6440 me, as the breachH6556 of watersH4325. Therefore he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 BaalperazimH1188. {Baalperazim: that is, the plain of breaches}
And there they leftH5800 their imagesH6091, and DavidH1732 and his menH582 burnedH5375 them. {burned…: or, took them away}
And the PhilistinesH6430 came upH5927 yet againH3254, and spreadH5203 themselves in the valleyH6010 of RephaimH7497.
And when DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 of the LORDH3068, he saidH559, Thou shalt not go upH5927; but fetch a compassH5437 behindH310 them, and comeH935 upon them over againstH4136 the mulberry treesH1057.
And let it be, when thou hearestH8085 the soundH6963 of a goingH6807 in the topsH7218 of the mulberry treesH1057, that then thou shalt bestirH2782 thyself: for then shall the LORDH3068 go outH3318 beforeH6440 thee, to smiteH5221 the hostH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430.
And DavidH1732 did soH6213, as the LORDH3068 had commandedH6680 him; and smoteH5221 the PhilistinesH6430 from GebaH1387 until thou comeH935 to GazerH1507.
Yet have I setH5258 my kingH4428 upon my holyH6944 hillH2022 of ZionH6726. {set: Heb. anointed} {upon…: Heb. upon Zion, the hill of my holiness}
BeautifulH3303 for situationH5131, the joyH4885 of the whole earthH776, is mountH2022 ZionH6726, on the sidesH3411 of the northH6828, the cityH7151 of the greatH7227 KingH4428.
MarkH7896 ye wellH3820 her bulwarksH2430, considerH6448 her palacesH759; that ye may tellH5608 it to the generationH1755 followingH314. {Mark…: Heb. Set your heart to} {consider: or, raise up}
Out of ZionH6726, the perfectionH4359 of beautyH3308, GodH430 hath shinedH3313.
The LORDH3068 shall sendH7971 the rodH4294 of thy strengthH5797 out of ZionH6726: ruleH7287 thou in the midstH7130 of thine enemiesH341.
The wordH1697 that IsaiahH3470 the sonH1121 of AmozH531 sawH2372 concerning JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389.
And it shall come to pass in the lastH319 daysH3117, that the mountainH2022 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004 shall be establishedH3559 in the topH7218 of the mountainsH2022, and shall be exaltedH5375 above the hillsH1389; and all nationsH1471 shall flowH5102 unto it. {established: or, prepared}
And manyH7227 peopleH5971 shall goH1980 and sayH559, ComeH3212 ye, and let us go upH5927 to the mountainH2022 of the LORDH3068, to the houseH1004 of the GodH430 of JacobH3290; and he will teachH3384 us of his waysH1870, and we will walkH3212 in his pathsH734: for out of ZionH6726 shall go forthH3318 the lawH8451, and the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 from JerusalemH3389.
And he shall judgeH8199 among the nationsH1471, and shall rebukeH3198 manyH7227 peopleH5971: and they shall beatH3807 their swordsH2719 into plowsharesH855, and their spearsH2595 into pruninghooksH4211: nationH1471 shall not lift upH5375 swordH2719 against nationH1471, neither shall they learnH3925 warH4421 any more. {pruninghooks: or, scythes}
ButG235 ye are comeG4334 unto mountG3735 SionG4622, andG2532 unto the cityG4172 of the livingG2198 GodG2316, the heavenlyG2032 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 to an innumerable companyG3461 of angelsG32,
To the general assemblyG3831 andG2532 churchG1577 of the firstbornG4416, which are writtenG583 inG1722 heavenG3772, andG2532 to GodG2316 the JudgeG2923 of allG3956, andG2532 to the spiritsG4151 of just menG1342 made perfectG5048, {written: or, enrolled}
AndG2532 to JesusG2424 the mediatorG3316 of the newG3501 covenantG1242, andG2532 to the bloodG129 of sprinklingG4473, that speakethG2980 better thingsG2909 thanG3844 that of AbelG6. {covenant: or, testament}
To the chief MusicianH5329 upon GittithH1665, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. O LORDH3068 our LordH113, how excellentH117 is thy nameH8034 in all the earthH776! who hast setH5414 thy gloryH1935 above the heavensH8064.
Out of the mouthH6310 of babesH5768 and sucklingsH3243 hast thou ordainedH3245 strengthH5797 because of thine enemiesH6887, that thou mightest stillH7673 the enemyH341 and the avengerH5358. {ordained: Heb. founded}
When I considerH7200 thy heavensH8064, the workH4639 of thy fingersH676, the moonH3394 and the starsH3556, which thou hast ordainedH3559;
What is manH582, that thou art mindfulH2142 of him? and the sonH1121 of manH120, that thou visitestH6485 him?
For thou hast made him a littleH4592 lowerH2637 than the angelsH430, and hast crownedH5849 him with gloryH3519 and honourH1926.
Thou madest him to have dominionH4910 over the worksH4639 of thy handsH3027; thou hast putH7896 all things under his feetH7272:
All sheepH6792 and oxenH504, yea, and the beastsH929 of the fieldH7704; {All…: Heb. Flocks and oxen all of them}
The fowlH6833 of the airH8064, and the fishH1709 of the seaH3220, and whatsoever passeth throughH5674 the pathsH734 of the seasH3220.
O LORDH3068 our LordH113, how excellentH117 is thy nameH8034 in all the earthH776!
Thou madestG1642 himG846 a littleG1024+G5100 lowerG1642 thanG3844 the angelsG32; thou crownedstG4737 himG846 with gloryG1391 andG2532 honourG5092, andG2532 didst setG2525 himG846 overG1909 the worksG2041 of thyG4675 handsG5495: {lower…: or, while inferior to}
Thou hast putG5293 all thingsG3956 in subjectionG5293 underG5270 hisG846 feetG4228. ForG1063 inG1722 that he putG5293 allG3956 in subjection underG5293 himG846, he leftG863 nothing that is notG3762 put underG506 himG846. ButG1161 nowG3568 we seeG3708 not yetG3768 all thingsG3956 put underG5293 himG846.
That inG1519 the dispensationG3622 of the fulnessG4138 of timesG2540 he might gather together in oneG346 all thingsG3956 inG1722 ChristG5547, bothG5037 whichG3588 are inG1722 heavenG3772, andG2532 whichG3588 are onG1909 earthG1093; even inG1722 himG846: {heaven: Gr. the heavens}
WhereforeG1352 GodG2316 alsoG2532 hath highly exaltedG5251 himG846, andG2532 givenG5483 himG846 a nameG3686 whichG3588 is aboveG5228 everyG3956 nameG3686:
ThatG2443 atG1722 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 everyG3956 kneeG1119 should bowG2578, of things in heavenG2032, andG2532 things in earthG1919, andG2532 things under the earthG2709;
AndG2532 that everyG3956 tongueG1100 should confessG1843 thatG3754 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 is LordG2962, toG1519 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316 the FatherG3962.
ForG1063 ourG2257 conversationG4175 isG5225 inG1722 heavenG3772; fromG1537 whenceG3739 alsoG2532 we look forG553 the SaviourG4990, the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547: {conversation…: or, we live or conduct ourselves as citizens of heaven, or, for obtaining heaven}
For thisG5127 causeG5484 IG1473 PaulG3972, the prisonerG1198 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 forG5228 youG5216 GentilesG1484,
IfG1489 ye have heardG191 of the dispensationG3622 of the graceG5485 of GodG2316 whichG3588 is givenG1325 meG3427 toG1519 you-wardG5209:
How thatG3754 byG2596 revelationG602 he made knownG1107 unto meG3427 the mysteryG3466; (asG2531 I wrote aforeG4270 inG1722 few wordsG3641, {afore…: or, a little before}
WherebyG4314+G3739, when ye readG314, ye mayG1410 understandG3539 myG3450 knowledgeG4907 inG1722 the mysteryG3466 of ChristG5547)
WhichG3739 inG1722 otherG2087 agesG1074 wasG1107 notG3756 made knownG1107 unto the sonsG5207 of menG444, asG5613 it isG601 nowG3568 revealedG601 unto hisG846 holyG40 apostlesG652 andG2532 prophetsG4396 byG1722 the SpiritG4151;
That the GentilesG1484 should beG1511 fellowheirsG4789, andG2532 of the same bodyG4954, andG2532 partakersG4830 of hisG846 promiseG1860 inG1722 ChristG5547 byG1223 the gospelG2098:
WhereofG3739 I was madeG1096 a ministerG1249, accordingG2596 to the giftG1431 of the graceG5485 of GodG2316 givenG1325 unto meG3427 byG2596 the effectual workingG1753 of hisG846 powerG1411.
Unto meG1698, who am less than the leastG1647 of allG3956 saintsG40, isG1325 thisG3778 graceG5485 givenG1325, that I should preachG2097 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 the unsearchableG421 richesG4149 of ChristG5547;
AndG2532 to makeG5461 allG3956 men seeG5461 whatG5101 is the fellowshipG2842 of the mysteryG3466, whichG3588 fromG575 the beginning of the worldG165 hath been hidG613 inG1722 GodG2316, whoG3588 createdG2936 all thingsG3956 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
To the intent thatG2443 nowG3568 unto the principalitiesG746 andG2532 powersG1849 inG1722 heavenlyG2032 places might be knownG1107 byG1223 the churchG1577 the manifoldG4182 wisdomG4678 of GodG2316,
According toG2596 the eternalG165 purposeG4286 whichG3739 he purposedG4160 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 ourG2257 LordG2962:
InG1722 whomG3739 we haveG2192 boldnessG3954 andG2532 accessG4318 withG1722 confidenceG4006 byG1223 the faithG4102 of himG846.
WhereforeG1352 I desireG154 that ye faintG1573 notG3361 atG1722 myG3450 tribulationsG2347 forG5228 youG5216, whichG3748 isG2076 yourG5216 gloryG1391.
For thisG5127 causeG5484 I bowG2578 myG3450 kneesG1119 untoG4314 the FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547,
OfG1537 whomG3739 the wholeG3956 familyG3965 inG1722 heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1909+G1093 is namedG3687,
ThatG2443 he would grantG1325 youG5213, according toG2596 the richesG4149 of hisG846 gloryG1391, to be strengthenedG2901 with mightG1411 byG1223 hisG846 SpiritG4151 inG1519 the innerG2080 manG444;
That ChristG5547 may dwellG2730 inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588 byG1223 faithG4102; thatG2443 ye, being rootedG4492 andG2532 groundedG2311 inG1722 loveG26,
May be ableG1840 to comprehendG2638 withG4862 allG3956 saintsG40 whatG5101 is the breadthG4114, andG2532 lengthG3372, andG2532 depthG899, andG2532 heightG5311;
AndG5037 to knowG1097 the loveG26 of ChristG5547, which passethG5235 knowledgeG1108, thatG2443 ye might be filledG4137 withG1519 allG3956 the fulnessG4138 of GodG2316.
NowG1161 unto him that is ableG1410 to doG4160 exceedingG5228 abundantlyG1537+G4053 aboveG5228 allG3956 thatG3739 we askG154 orG2228 thinkG3539, according toG2596 the powerG1411 that workethG1754 inG1722 usG2254,
Unto himG846 be gloryG1391 inG1722 the churchG1577 byG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 throughoutG1519 allG3956 agesG1074, worldG165 without endG165. AmenG281.
AndG2532 theseG3778 allG3956, having obtained a good reportG3140 throughG1223 faithG4102, receivedG2865 notG3756 the promiseG1860:
GodG2316 having providedG4265 someG5100 betterG2909 thingG5100 forG4012 usG2257, thatG3363 theyG5048 withoutG5565 usG2257 shouldG5048 notG3363 be made perfectG5048. {provided: or, foreseen}
And he saidH559, WhatH4100 hast thou doneH6213? the voiceH6963 of thy brother'sH251 bloodH1818 criethH6817 unto me from the groundH127. {blood: Heb. bloods}
And now art thou cursedH779 from the earthH127, which hath openedH6475 her mouthH6310 to receiveH3947 thy brother'sH251 bloodH1818 from thy handH3027;
WhenH3588 thou tillestH5647 the groundH127, it shall not henceforthH3254 yieldH5414 unto thee her strengthH3581; a fugitiveH5128 and a vagabondH5110 shalt thou be in the earthH776.
ThenG1161 saidG3004 JesusG2424, FatherG3962, forgiveG863 themG846; forG1063 they knowG1492 notG3756 whatG5101 they doG4160. AndG1161 they partedG1266 hisG846 raimentG2440, and castG906 lotsG2819.
AndG2532, having made peaceG1517 throughG1223 the bloodG129 of hisG846 crossG4716, byG1223 himG846 to reconcileG604 all thingsG3956 untoG1519 himselfG846; byG1223 himG846, I say, whetherG1535 they be things inG1909 earthG1093, orG1535 things inG1722 heavenG3772. {having…: or, making}
AndG2532 youG5209, that wereG5607 sometimeG4218 alienatedG526 andG2532 enemiesG2190 in your mindG1271 byG1722 wickedG4190 worksG2041, yetG1161 nowG3570 hath he reconciledG604 {in…: or, by your mind in}
InG1722 the bodyG4983 of hisG846 fleshG4561 throughG1223 deathG2288, to presentG3936 youG5209 holyG40 andG2532 unblameableG299 andG2532 unreproveableG410 in hisG846 sightG2714:
ThisG3778 is heG2076, that wasG1096 inG1722 the churchG1577 inG1722 the wildernessG2048 withG3326 the angelG32 whichG3588 spakeG2980 to himG846 inG1722 the mountG3735 SinaG4614, andG2532 with ourG2257 fathersG3962: whoG3739 receivedG1209 the livelyG2198 oraclesG3051 to giveG1325 unto usG2254:
ThereforeG1223+G5124 weG2248 oughtG1163 to give the more earnestG4056 heedG4337 to the things which we have heardG191, lest at any timeG3379 we should let them slipG3901. {let…: Gr. run out as leaking vessels}
ForG1063 ifG1487 the wordG3056 spokenG2980 byG1223 angelsG32 wasG1096 stedfastG949, andG2532 everyG3956 transgressionG3847 andG2532 disobedienceG3876 receivedG2983 a justG1738 recompence of rewardG3405;
HowG4459 shall weG2249 escapeG1628, if we neglectG272 so greatG5082 salvationG4991; whichG3748 at the firstG746 beganG2983 to be spokenG2980 byG1223 the LordG2962, and was confirmedG950 untoG1519 usG2248 byG5259 them that heardG191 him;
GodG2316 also bearing them witnessG4901, bothG5037 with signsG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059, andG2532 with diversG4164 miraclesG1411, andG2532 giftsG3311 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151, according toG2596 his ownG846 willG2308? {gifts: or, distributions}
And mountH2022 SinaiH5514 was altogether on a smokeH6225, becauseH6440+H834 the LORDH3068 descendedH3381 upon it in fireH784: and the smokeH6227 thereof ascendedH5927 as the smokeH6227 of a furnaceH3536, and the whole mountH2022 quakedH2729 greatlyH3966.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; Yet onceH259, it is a little whileH4592, and I will shakeH7493 the heavensH8064, and the earthH776, and the seaH3220, and the dryH2724 land;
ButG1161 the heavensG3772 andG2532 the earthG1093, which are nowG3568, by the sameG846 wordG3056 areG1526 kept in storeG2343, reservedG5083 unto fireG4442 againstG1519 the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920 andG2532 perditionG684 of ungodlyG765 menG444.
Looking forG4328 andG2532 hastingG4692 unto the comingG3952 of the dayG2250 of GodG2316, whereinG1223+G3739 the heavensG3772 being on fireG4448 shall be dissolvedG3089, andG2532 the elementsG4747 shall meltG5080 with fervent heatG2741? {hasting…: or, hasting the coming}
NeverthelessG1161 weG4328, according toG2596 hisG846 promiseG1862, look forG4328 newG2537 heavensG3772 andG2532 a newG2537 earthG1093, whereinG1722+G3739 dwellethG2730 righteousnessG1343.
And NadabH5070 and AbihuH30, the sonsH1121 of AaronH175, tookH3947 eitherH376 of them his censerH4289, and putH5414 fireH784 thereinH2004, and putH7760 incenseH7004 thereon, and offeredH7126 strangeH2114 fireH784 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, which he commandedH6680 them not.
And there went outH3318 fireH784 from the LORDH3068, and devouredH398 them, and they diedH4191 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
For the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 is a consumingH398 fireH784, even a jealousH7067 GodH410.
ThenG2532 answeredG611 allG3956 the peopleG2992, and saidG2036, HisG846 bloodG129 be onG1909 usG2248, andG2532 onG1909 ourG2257 childrenG5043.
