The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came again to me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, when the landH776 sinnethH2398 against me by trespassingH4603 grievouslyH4604, then will I stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 upon it, and will breakH7665 the staffH4294 of the breadH3899 thereof, and will sendH7971 famineH7458 upon it, and will cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it:
Though these threeH7969 menH582, NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347, were in itH8432, they should deliverH5337 but their own soulsH5315 by their righteousnessH6666, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
IfH3863 I cause noisomeH7451 beastsH2416 to pass throughH5674 the landH776, and they spoilH7921 it, so that it be desolateH8077, that no man may pass throughH5674 becauseH6440 of the beastsH2416: {spoil: or, bereave}
Though these threeH7969 menH582 were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonsH1121 nor daughtersH1323; they only shall be deliveredH5337, but the landH776 shall be desolateH8077. {in it: Heb. in the midst of it}
Or if I bringH935 a swordH2719 upon that landH776, and sayH559, SwordH2719, go throughH5674 the landH776; so that I cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it:
Though these threeH7969 menH582 were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonsH1121 nor daughtersH1323, but they only shall be deliveredH5337 themselves.
Or if I sendH7971 a pestilenceH1698 into that landH776, and pour outH8210 my furyH2534 upon it in bloodH1818, to cut offH3772 from it manH120 and beastH929:
Though NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347, were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonH1121 norH518 daughterH1323; they shall but deliverH5337 their own soulsH5315 by their righteousnessH6666.
And it came to pass, when menH120 beganH2490 to multiplyH7231 onH5921 the faceH6440 of the earthH127, and daughtersH1323 were bornH3205 unto them,
That the sonsH1121 of GodH430 sawH7200 the daughtersH1323 of menH120 that theyH2007 were fairH2896; and they tookH3947 them wivesH802 of all which they choseH977.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, My spiritH7307 shall not alwaysH5769 striveH1777 with manH120, for that he alsoH1571 is fleshH1320+H7683: yet his daysH3117 shall be an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141.
There were giantsH5303 in the earthH776 in those daysH3117; and also afterH310 thatH3651, whenH834 the sonsH1121 of GodH430 came inH935 unto the daughtersH1323 of menH120, and they bareH3205 children to them, the sameH1992 became mighty menH1368 which were of oldH5769, menH582 of renownH8034.
And GODH3068 sawH7200 that the wickednessH7451 of manH120 was greatH7227 in the earthH776, and that every imaginationH3336 of the thoughtsH4284 of his heartH3820 was onlyH7535 evilH7451 continuallyH3117. {every…: or, the whole imagination: the Hebrew word signifieth not only the imagination, but also the purposes and desires} {continually: Heb. every day}
And it repentedH5162 the LORDH3068 that he had madeH6213 manH120 on the earthH776, and it grievedH6087 him atH413 his heartH3820.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, I will destroyH4229 manH120 whom I have createdH1254 from the faceH6440 of the earthH127; both manH120, andH5704 beastH929, and the creeping thingH7431, and the fowlsH5775 of the airH8064; for it repentethH5162 me that I have madeH6213 them. {both…: Heb. from man unto beast}
But NoahH5146 foundH4672 graceH2580 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068.
These are the generationsH8435 of NoahH5146: NoahH5146 was a justH6662 manH376 and perfectH8549 in his generationsH1755, and NoahH5146 walkedH1980 with GodH430. {perfect: or, upright}
And NoahH5146 begatH3205 threeH7969 sonsH1121, ShemH8035, HamH2526, and JaphethH3315.
The earthH776 also was corruptH7843 beforeH6440 GodH430, and the earthH776 was filledH4390 with violenceH2555.
And GodH430 lookedH7200 upon the earthH776, and, behold, it was corruptH7843; for all fleshH1320 had corruptedH7843 his wayH1870 upon the earthH776.
By faithG4102 NoahG3575, being warned of GodG5537 ofG4012 things notG3369 seenG991 as yetG3369, moved with fearG2125, preparedG2680 an arkG2787 toG1519 the savingG4991 of hisG846 houseG3624; byG1223 the whichG3739 he condemnedG2632 the worldG2889, andG2532 becameG1096 heirG2818 of the righteousnessG1343 which is byG2596 faithG4102. {moved…: or, being wary}
AndG2532 sparedG5339 notG3756 the oldG744 worldG2889, butG235 savedG5442 NoahG3575 the eighthG3590 person, a preacherG2783 of righteousnessG1343, bringing inG1863 the floodG2627 upon the worldG2889 of the ungodlyG765;
But DanielH1840 purposedH7760 in his heartH3820 that he would not defileH1351 himself with the portionH6598 of the king'sH4428 meatH6598, nor with the wineH3196 which he drankH4960: therefore he requestedH1245 of the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631 that he might not defileH1351 himself.
Now GodH430 had broughtH5414 DanielH1840 into favourH2617 and tender loveH7356 withH6440 the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631.
And the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631 saidH559 unto DanielH1840, I fearH3373 my lordH113 the kingH4428, who hath appointedH4487 your meatH3978 and your drinkH4960: for why should he seeH7200 your facesH6440 worse likingH2196 than the childrenH3206 which are of your sortH1524? then shall ye make me endangerH2325 my headH7218 to the kingH4428. {worse…: Heb. sadder} {sort: or, term, or, continuance?}
Then saidH559 DanielH1840 to MelzarH4453, whom the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631 had setH4487 over DanielH1840, HananiahH2608, MishaelH4332, and AzariahH5838, {Melzar: or, the steward}
ProveH5254 thy servantsH5650, I beseech thee, tenH6235 daysH3117; and let them giveH5414 us pulseH2235 to eatH398, and waterH4325 to drinkH8354. {pulse: Heb. of pulse} {to eat…: Heb. that we may eat, etc}
Then let our countenancesH4758 be looked uponH7200 beforeH6440 thee, and the countenanceH4758 of the childrenH3206 that eatH398 of the portionH6598 of the king'sH4428 meatH6598: and as thou seestH7200, dealH6213 with thy servantsH5650.
So he consentedH8085 to them in this matterH1697, and provedH5254 them tenH6235 daysH3117.
And at the endH7117 of tenH6235 daysH3117 their countenancesH4758 appearedH7200 fairerH2896 and fatterH1277 in fleshH1320 than all the childrenH3206 which did eatH398 the portionH6598 of the king'sH4428 meatH6598.
Thus MelzarH4453 took awayH5375 the portion of their meatH6598, and the wineH3196 that they should drinkH4960; and gaveH5414 them pulseH2235.
ThenH116 saidH560 theseH479 menH1400, We shall notH3809 findH7912 anyH3606 occasionH5931 againstH5922 thisH1836 DanielH1841, exceptH3861 we findH7912 it against him concerning the lawH1882 of his GodH426.
ThenH116 theseH459 presidentsH5632 and princesH324 assembled togetherH7284 to the kingH4430, and saidH560 thusH3652 unto himH5922, KingH4430 DariusH1868, liveH2418 for everH5957. {assembled…: or, came tumultuously}
ThenH116 theseH479 menH1400 assembledH7284, and foundH7912 DanielH1841 prayingH1156 and making supplicationH2604 beforeH6925 his GodH426.
ThenH116 they came nearH7127, and spakeH560 beforeH6925 the kingH4430 concerningH5922 the king'sH4430 decreeH633; Hast thou notH3809 signedH7560 a decreeH633, that everyH3606 manH606 that shall askH1156 a petition ofH4481 anyH3606 GodH426 or manH606 withinH5705 thirtyH8533 daysH3118, saveH3861 of theeH4481, O kingH4430, shall be castH7412 into the denH1358 of lionsH744? The kingH4430 answeredH6032 and saidH560, The thingH4406 is trueH3330, according to the lawH1882 of the MedesH4076 and PersiansH6540, which alterethH5709 notH3809.
ThenH116 answeredH6032 they and saidH560 beforeH6925 the kingH4430, That DanielH1841, which is ofH4481 the childrenH1123 of the captivityH1547 of JudahH3061, regardethH7761+H2942 notH3809 theeH5922, O kingH4430, nor the decreeH633 that thou hast signedH7560, but makethH1156 his petitionH1159 threeH8532 timesH2166 a dayH3118.
ThenH116 the kingH4430, when he heardH8086 these wordsH4406, was soreH7690 displeasedH888 with himself, and setH7761 his heartH1079 onH5922 DanielH1841 to deliverH7804 him: and he labouredH1934+H7712 tillH5705 the going downH4606 of the sunH8122 to deliverH5338 him.
And it came to pass, when I, even I DanielH1840, had seenH7200 the visionH2377, and soughtH1245 for the meaningH998, then, behold, there stoodH5975 before me as the appearanceH4758 of a manH1397.
In the firstH259 yearH8141 of his reignH4427 I DanielH1840 understoodH995 by booksH5612 the numberH4557 of the yearsH8141, whereof the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, that he would accomplishH4390 seventyH7657 yearsH8141 in the desolationsH2723 of JerusalemH3389.
And he informedH995 me, and talkedH1696 with me, and saidH559, O DanielH1840, I am now come forthH3318 to give thee skillH7919 and understandingH998. {to…: Heb. to make thee skilful of}
At the beginningH8462 of thy supplicationsH8469 the commandmentH1697 came forthH3318, and I am comeH935 to shewH5046 thee; for thou art greatly belovedH2532: therefore understandH995 the matterH1697, and considerH995 the visionH4758. {commandment: Heb. word} {greatly…: Heb. a man of desires}
In the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539 a thingH1697 was revealedH1540 unto DanielH1840, whose nameH8034 was calledH7121 BelteshazzarH1095; and the thingH1697 was trueH571, but the time appointedH6635 was longH1419: and he understoodH995 the thingH1697, and had understandingH998 of the visionH4758. {long: Heb. great}
Then saidH559 he unto me, FearH3372 not, DanielH1840: for from the firstH7223 dayH3117 that thou didst setH5414 thine heartH3820 to understandH995, and to chastenH6031 thyself beforeH6440 thy GodH430, thy wordsH1697 were heardH8085, and I am comeH935 for thy wordsH1697.
ButH61 I will shewH5046 thee that which is notedH7559 in the scriptureH3791 of truthH571: and there is noneH259 that holdethH2388 with me in these things, but MichaelH4317 your princeH8269. {holdeth: Heb. strengtheneth himself}
And I prayedH6419 unto the LORDH3068 my GodH430, and made my confessionH3034, and saidH559, OH577 LordH136, the greatH1419 and dreadfulH3372 GodH410, keepingH8104 the covenantH1285 and mercyH2617 to them that loveH157 him, and to them that keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687;
We have sinnedH2398, and have committed iniquityH5753, and have done wickedlyH7561, and have rebelledH4775, even by departingH5493 from thy preceptsH4687 and from thy judgmentsH4941:
Neither have we hearkenedH8085 unto thy servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, which spakeH1696 in thy nameH8034 to our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, and our fathersH1, and to all the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
O LordH136, righteousnessH6666 belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusionH1322 of facesH6440, as at this dayH3117; to the menH376 of JudahH3063, and to the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and unto all IsraelH3478, that are nearH7138, and that are far offH7350, through all the countriesH776 whither thou hast drivenH5080 them, because of their trespassH4604 that they have trespassedH4603 against thee. {belongeth…: or, thou hast}
O LORDH3068, to us belongeth confusionH1322 of faceH6440, to our kingsH4428, to our princesH8269, and to our fathersH1, because we have sinnedH2398 against thee.
To the LordH136 our GodH430 belong merciesH7356 and forgivenessesH5547, though we have rebelledH4775 against him;
Neither have we obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430, to walkH3212 in his lawsH8451, which he setH5414 beforeH6440 us byH3027 his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030.
Yea, all IsraelH3478 have transgressedH5674 thy lawH8451, even by departingH5493, that they might not obeyH8085 thy voiceH6963; therefore the curseH423 is pouredH5413 upon us, and the oathH7621 that is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of GodH430, because we have sinnedH2398 against him.
And he hath confirmedH6965 his wordsH1697, which he spakeH1696 against us, and against our judgesH8199 that judgedH8199 us, by bringingH935 upon us a greatH1419 evilH7451: for under the whole heavenH8064 hath not been doneH6213 as hath been doneH6213 upon JerusalemH3389.
As it is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of MosesH4872, all this evilH7451 is comeH935 upon us: yet made we not our prayerH2470 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 our GodH430, that we might turnH7725 from our iniquitiesH5771, and understandH7919 thy truthH571. {made…: Heb. intreated we not the face of the, etc}
Therefore hath the LORDH3068 watchedH8245 upon the evilH7451, and broughtH935 it upon us: for the LORDH3068 our GodH430 is righteousH6662 in all his worksH4639 which he doethH6213: for we obeyedH8085 not his voiceH6963.
And now, O LordH136 our GodH430, that hast broughtH3318 thy peopleH5971 forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 with a mightyH2389 handH3027, and hast gottenH6213 thee renownH8034, as at this dayH3117; we have sinnedH2398, we have done wickedlyH7561. {gotten…: Heb. made thee a name}
O LordH136, according to all thy righteousnessH6666, I beseech thee, let thine angerH639 and thy furyH2534 be turned awayH7725 from thy cityH5892 JerusalemH3389, thy holyH6944 mountainH2022: because for our sinsH2399, and for the iniquitiesH5771 of our fathersH1, JerusalemH3389 and thy peopleH5971 are become a reproachH2781 to all that are aboutH5439 us.
Now therefore, O our GodH430, hearH8085 the prayerH8605 of thy servantH5650, and his supplicationsH8469, and cause thy faceH6440 to shineH215 upon thy sanctuaryH4720 that is desolateH8076, for the Lord'sH136 sake.
O my GodH430, inclineH5186 thine earH241, and hearH8085; openH6491 thine eyesH5869, and beholdH7200 our desolationsH8074, and the cityH5892 which is calledH7121 by thy nameH8034: for we do not presentH5307 our supplicationsH8469 beforeH6440 thee for our righteousnessesH6666, but for thy greatH7227 merciesH7356. {which…: Heb. whereupon thy name is called} {present: Heb. cause to fall}
O LordH136, hearH8085; O LordH136, forgiveH5545; O LordH136, hearkenH7181 and doH6213; deferH309 notH408, for thine own sake, O my GodH430: for thy cityH5892 and thy peopleH5971 are calledH7121 by thy nameH8034.
And whiles I was speakingH1696, and prayingH6419, and confessingH3034 my sinH2403 and the sinH2403 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and presentingH5307 my supplicationH8467 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 my GodH430 for the holyH6944 mountainH2022 of my GodH430;
Then JobH347 aroseH6965, and rentH7167 his mantleH4598, and shavedH1494 his headH7218, and fell downH5307 upon the groundH776, and worshippedH7812, {mantle: or, robe}
And saidH559, NakedH6174 came I outH3318 of my mother'sH517 wombH990, and nakedH6174 shall I returnH7725 thither: the LORDH3068 gaveH5414, and the LORDH3068 hath taken awayH3947; blessedH1288 be the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068.
In all this JobH347 sinnedH2398 not, nor chargedH5414 GodH430 foolishlyH8604. {charged…: or, attributed folly to God}
Then saidH559 his wifeH802 unto him, Dost thou still retainH2388 thine integrityH8538? curseH1288 GodH430, and dieH4191.
But he saidH559 unto her, Thou speakestH1696 as oneH259 of the foolish womenH5036 speakethH1696. WhatH1571? shall we receiveH6901 goodH2896 at the hand of GodH430, and shall we not receiveH6901 evilH7451? In all this did not JobH347 sinH2398 with his lipsH8193.
For I knowH3045 that my redeemerH1350 livethH2416, and that he shall standH6965 at the latterH314 day upon the earthH6083:
And though afterH310 my skinH5785 worms destroyH5362 this body, yet in my fleshH1320 shall I seeH2372 GodH433: {And…: or, After I shall awake, though this body be destroyed, yet out of my flesh}
Whom I shall seeH2372 for myself, and mine eyesH5869 shall beholdH7200, and not anotherH2114; though my reinsH3629 be consumedH3615 withinH2436 me. {another: Heb. a stranger} {though…: or, my reins within me are consumed with earnest desire (for that day)} {within…: Heb. in my bosom}
Then JobH347 answeredH6030 the LORDH3068, and saidH559,
I knowH3045 that thou canst doH3201 every thing, and that no thoughtH4209 can be withholdenH1219 from thee. {no thought can be…: or, no thought of thine can be hindered}
Who is he that hidethH5956 counselH6098 without knowledgeH1847? therefore have I utteredH5046 that I understoodH995 not; things too wonderfulH6381 for me, which I knewH3045 not.
HearH8085, I beseech thee, and I will speakH1696: I will demandH7592 of thee, and declareH3045 thou unto me.
I have heardH8085 of thee by the hearingH8088 of the earH241: but now mine eyeH5869 seethH7200 thee.
Wherefore I abhorH3988 myself, and repentH5162 in dustH6083 and ashesH665.
BeholdG2400, we count them happyG3106 which endureG5278. Ye have heardG191 of the patienceG5281 of JobG2492, andG2532 have seenG1492 the endG5056 of the LordG2962; thatG3754 the LordG2962 isG2076 very pitifulG4184, andG2532 of tender mercyG3629.
So EliphazH464 the TemaniteH8489 and BildadH1085 the ShuhiteH7747 and ZopharH6691 the NaamathiteH5284 wentH3212, and didH6213 according as the LORDH3068 commandedH1696 them: the LORDH3068 also acceptedH5375 JobH6440+H347. {Job: Heb. the face of Job}
And the LORDH3068 turnedH7725 the captivityH7622+H7622 of JobH347, when he prayedH6419 for his friendsH7453: also the LORDH3068 gaveH3254 JobH347 twice as muchH4932 as he had before. {gave…: Heb. added all that had been to Job unto the double}
Though these threeH7969 menH582, NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347, were in itH8432, they should deliverH5337 but their own soulsH5315 by their righteousnessH6666, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.

AndG1161 JacobG2384 begatG1080 JosephG2501 the husbandG435 of MaryG3137, ofG1537 whomG3739 was bornG1080 JesusG2424, whoG3588 is calledG3004 ChristG5547.
SoG3767 allG3956 the generationsG1074 fromG575 AbrahamG11 toG2193 DavidG1138 are fourteenG1180 generationsG1074; andG2532 fromG575 DavidG1138 untilG2193 the carrying awayG3350 into BabylonG897 are fourteenG1180 generationsG1074; andG2532 fromG575 the carrying awayG3350 into BabylonG897 untoG2193 ChristG5547 are fourteenG1180 generationsG1074.
NowG1161 the birthG1083 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 wasG2258 on this wiseG3779: When asG1063 hisG846 motherG3384 MaryG3137 was espousedG3423 to JosephG2501, beforeG4250+G2228 theyG846 came togetherG4905, she was foundG2147 with childG1722+G1064+G2192 ofG1537 the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
ThenG1161 JosephG2501 herG846 husbandG435, beingG5607 a justG1342 man, andG2532 notG3361 willingG2309 to makeG3856 herG846 a publick exampleG3856, was mindedG1014 to putG630 herG846 awayG630 privilyG2977.
ButG1161 while heG846 thought onG1760 these thingsG5023, beholdG2400, the angelG32 of the LordG2962 appearedG5316 unto himG846 inG2596 a dreamG3677, sayingG3004, JosephG2501, thou sonG5207 of DavidG1138, fearG5399 notG3361 to takeG3880 unto theeG4675 MaryG3137 thy wifeG1135: forG1063 that which is conceivedG1080 inG1722 herG846 isG2076 ofG1537 the HolyG40 GhostG4151. {conceived: Gr. begotten}
AndG1161 she shall bring forthG5088 a sonG5207, andG2532 thou shalt callG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 JESUSG2424: forG1063 heG846 shall saveG4982 hisG846 peopleG2992 fromG575 theirG846 sinsG266. {JESUS: that is, Saviour, Heb}
NowG1161 allG3650 thisG5124 was doneG1096, thatG2443 it might be fulfilledG4137 whichG3588 was spokenG4483 ofG5259 the LordG2962 byG1223 the prophetG4396, sayingG3004,
BeholdG2400, a virginG3933 shall be with childG1722+G1064+G2192, andG2532 shall bring forthG5088 a sonG5207, andG2532 they shall callG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 EmmanuelG1694, whichG3739 being interpretedG3177 isG2076, GodG2316 withG3326 usG2257. {they…: or, his name shall be called}
ThenG1161 JosephG2501 being raisedG1326 fromG575 sleepG5258 didG4160 asG5613 the angelG32 of the LordG2962 had biddenG4367 himG846, andG2532 tookG3880 unto himG846 his wifeG1135:
AndG2532 knewG1097 herG846 notG3756 tillG2193+G3739 she had brought forthG5088 herG846 firstbornG4416 sonG5207: andG2532 he calledG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 JESUSG2424.
ThenG5119 was JesusG2424 led upG321 ofG5259 the SpiritG4151 intoG1519 the wildernessG2048 to be temptedG3985 ofG5259 the devilG1228.
AndG2532 when he had fastedG3522 fortyG5062 daysG2250 andG2532 fortyG5062 nightsG3571, he was afterwardG5305 an hungredG3983.
AndG2532 when the tempterG3985 cameG4334 to himG846, he saidG2036, IfG1487 thou beG1488 the SonG5207 of GodG2316, commandG2036 thatG2443 theseG3778 stonesG3037 be madeG1096 breadG740.
ButG1161 he answeredG611 and saidG2036, It is writtenG1125, ManG444 shallG2198 notG3756 liveG2198 byG1909 breadG740 aloneG3441, butG235 byG1909 everyG3956 wordG4487 that proceedethG1607 out ofG1223 the mouthG4750 of GodG2316.
ThenG5119 the devilG1228 takethG3880 himG846 upG3880 intoG1519 the holyG40 cityG4172, andG2532 settethG2476 himG846 onG1909 a pinnacleG4419 of the templeG2411,
AndG2532 saithG3004 unto himG846, IfG1487 thou beG1488 the SonG5207 of GodG2316, castG906 thyselfG4572 downG2736: forG1063 it is writtenG1125+G3754, He shall giveG1781 hisG846 angelsG32 chargeG1781 concerningG4012 theeG4675: andG2532 inG1909 their handsG5495 they shall bearG142 theeG4571 upG142, lest at any timeG3379 thou dashG4350 thyG4675 footG4228 againstG4314 a stoneG3037.
JesusG2424 saidG5346 unto himG846, It is writtenG1125 againG3825, Thou shaltG1598 notG3756 temptG1598 the LordG2962 thyG4675 GodG2316. {tempt: or, try, or, put to trial, or, proof}
AgainG3825, the devilG1228 takethG3880 himG846 upG3880 intoG1519 an exceedingG3029 highG5308 mountainG3735, andG2532 shewethG1166 himG846 allG3956 the kingdomsG932 of the worldG2889, andG2532 the gloryG1391 of themG846;
AndG2532 saithG3004 unto himG846, AllG3956 these thingsG5023 will I giveG1325 theeG4671, ifG1437 thou wilt fall downG4098 and worshipG4352 meG3427.
ThenG5119 saithG3004 JesusG2424 unto himG846, Get thee henceG5217, SatanG4567: forG1063 it is writtenG1125, Thou shalt worshipG4352 the LordG2962 thyG4675 GodG2316, andG2532 himG846 onlyG3441 shalt thou serveG3000.
ThenG5119 the devilG1228 leavethG863 himG846, andG2532, beholdG2400, angelsG32 cameG4334 andG2532 ministeredG1247 unto himG846.
NowG1161 when JesusG2424 had heardG191 thatG3754 JohnG2491 was cast into prisonG3860, he departedG402 intoG1519 GalileeG1056; {cast…: or, delivered up}
AndG2532 leavingG2641 NazarethG3478, he cameG2064 and dweltG2730 inG1519 CapernaumG2584, whichG3588 is upon the sea coastG3864, inG1722 the bordersG3725 of ZabulonG2194 andG2532 NephthalimG3508:
ThatG2443 it might be fulfilledG4137 whichG3588 was spokenG4483 byG1223 EsaiasG2268 the prophetG4396, sayingG3004,
The landG1093 of ZabulonG2194, andG2532 the landG1093 of NephthalimG3508, by the wayG3598 of the seaG2281, beyondG4008 JordanG2446, GalileeG1056 of the GentilesG1484;
The peopleG2992 whichG3588 satG2521 inG1722 darknessG4655 sawG1492 greatG3173 lightG5457; andG2532 to them whichG3588 satG2521 inG1722 the regionG5561 andG2532 shadowG4639 of deathG2288 lightG5457 is sprung upG393+G846.
FromG575 that timeG5119 JesusG2424 beganG756 to preachG2784, andG2532 to sayG3004, RepentG3340: forG1063 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 is at handG1448.
AndG1161 JesusG2424, walkingG4043 byG3844 the seaG2281 of GalileeG1056, sawG1492 twoG1417 brethrenG80, SimonG4613 calledG3004 PeterG4074, andG2532 AndrewG406 hisG846 brotherG80, castingG906 a netG293 intoG1519 the seaG2281: forG1063 they wereG2258 fishersG231.
AndG2532 he saithG3004 unto themG846, FollowG1205+G3694 meG3450, andG2532 I will makeG4160 youG5209 fishersG231 of menG444.
AndG1161 they straightwayG2112 leftG863 their netsG1350, and followedG190 himG846.
AndG2532 going onG4260 from thenceG1564, he sawG1492 otherG243 twoG1417 brethrenG80, JamesG2385 the son ofG3588 ZebedeeG2199, andG2532 JohnG2491 hisG846 brotherG80, inG1722 a shipG4143 withG3326 ZebedeeG2199 theirG846 fatherG3962, mendingG2675 theirG846 netsG1350; andG2532 he calledG2564 themG846.
AndG1161 they immediatelyG2112 leftG863 the shipG4143 andG2532 theirG846 fatherG3962, and followedG190 himG846.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 went aboutG4013 allG3650 GalileeG1056, teachingG1321 inG1722 theirG846 synagoguesG4864, andG2532 preachingG2784 the gospelG2098 of the kingdomG932, andG2532 healingG2323 allG3956 manner of sicknessG3554 andG2532 allG3956 manner of diseaseG3119 amongG1722 the peopleG2992.
AndG2532 hisG846 fameG189 wentG565 throughoutG1519 allG3650 SyriaG4947: andG2532 they broughtG4374 unto himG846 allG3956 sickG2560 peopleG2192 that were taken withG4912 diversG4164 diseasesG3554 andG2532 tormentsG931, andG2532 those which were possessed with devilsG1139, andG2532 those which were lunatickG4583, andG2532 those that had the palsyG3885; andG2532 he healedG2323 themG846.
AndG2532 there followedG190 himG846 greatG4183 multitudes of peopleG3793 fromG575 GalileeG1056, andG2532 from DecapolisG1179, andG2532 from JerusalemG2414, andG2532 from JudaeaG2449, andG2532 from beyondG4008 JordanG2446.
AndG1161 JesusG2424 being fullG4134 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151 returnedG5290 fromG575 JordanG2446, andG2532 was ledG71 byG1722 the SpiritG4151 intoG1519 the wildernessG2048,
BeingG3985 fortyG5062 daysG2250 temptedG3985 ofG5259 the devilG1228. AndG2532 inG1722 thoseG1565 daysG2250 he did eatG5315 nothingG3756+G3762: andG2532 when theyG846 were endedG4931, he afterwardG5305 hungeredG3983.
AndG2532 the devilG1228 saidG2036 unto himG846, IfG1487 thou beG1488 the SonG5207 of GodG2316, commandG2036 thisG5129 stoneG3037 thatG2443 it be madeG1096 breadG740.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 answeredG611 himG4314+G846, sayingG3004, It is writtenG1125, ThatG3754 manG444 shallG2198 notG3756 liveG2198 byG1909 breadG740 aloneG3441, butG235 byG1909 everyG3956 wordG4487 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 the devilG1228, takingG321 himG846 upG321 intoG1519 an highG5308 mountainG3735, shewedG1166 unto himG846 allG3956 the kingdomsG932 of the worldG3625 inG1722 a momentG4743 of timeG5550.
AndG2532 the devilG1228 saidG2036 unto himG846, AllG537 thisG5026 powerG1849 will I giveG1325 theeG4671, andG2532 the gloryG1391 of themG846: forG3754 that is deliveredG3860 unto meG1698; andG2532 toG3739 whomsoeverG1437 I willG2309 I giveG1325 itG846.
IfG1437 thouG4771 thereforeG3767 wilt worshipG4352 meG1799+G3450, allG3956 shall beG2071 thineG4675. {worship me: or, fall down before me}
AndG2532 JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto himG846, Get theeG5217 behindG3694 meG3450, SatanG4567: forG1063 it is writtenG1125, Thou shalt worshipG4352 the LordG2962 thyG4675 GodG2316, andG2532 himG846 onlyG3441 shalt thou serveG3000.
AndG2532 he broughtG71 himG846 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 setG2476 himG846 onG1909 a pinnacleG4419 of the templeG2411, andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, IfG1487 thou beG1488 the SonG5207 of GodG2316, castG906 thyselfG4572 downG2736 from henceG1782:
ForG1063+G3754 it is writtenG1125, He shall giveG1781 hisG846 angelsG32 chargeG1781 overG4012 theeG4675, to keepG1314 theeG4571:
AndG2532+G3754 inG1909 their handsG5495 they shall bearG142 theeG4571 upG142, lest at any timeG3379 thou dashG4350 thyG4675 footG4228 againstG4314 a stoneG3037.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 answeringG611 saidG2036 unto himG846, It is saidG3754+G2046, Thou shaltG1598 notG3756 temptG1598 the LordG2962 thyG4675 GodG2316.
AndG2532 when the devilG1228 had endedG4931 allG3956 the temptationG3986, he departedG868 fromG575 himG846 forG891 a seasonG2540.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 returnedG5290 inG1722 the powerG1411 of the SpiritG4151 intoG1519 GalileeG1056: andG2532 there went outG1831 a fameG5345 ofG4012 himG846 throughG2596 allG3650 the region round aboutG4066.
AndG2532 heG846 taughtG1321 inG1722 theirG846 synagoguesG4864, being glorifiedG1392 ofG5259 allG3956.
AndG2532 he cameG2064 toG1519 NazarethG3478, whereG3757 he had beenG2258 brought upG5142: andG2532, asG2596 hisG846 customG1486 wasG2596, he wentG1525 intoG1519 the synagogueG4864 onG1722 the sabbathG4521 dayG2250, andG2532 stood upG450 for to readG314.
AndG2532 there was deliveredG1929 unto himG846 the bookG975 of the prophetG4396 EsaiasG2268. AndG2532 when he had openedG380 the bookG975, he foundG2147 the placeG5117 whereG3757 it wasG2258 writtenG1125,
The SpiritG4151 of the LordG2962 is uponG1909 meG1691, becauseG1752 he hath anointedG5548 meG3165 to preach the gospelG2097 to the poorG4434; he hath sentG649 meG3165 to healG2390 the brokenheartedG4937+G2588, to preachG2784 deliveranceG859 to the captivesG164, andG2532 recovering of sightG309 to the blindG5185, to setG649 atG1722 libertyG859 them that are bruisedG2352,
To preachG2784 the acceptableG1184 yearG1763 of the LordG2962.
AndG2532 he closedG4428 the bookG975, and he gave it againG591 to the ministerG5257, and sat downG2523. AndG2532 the eyesG3788 of all themG3956 that wereG2258 inG1722 the synagogueG4864 were fastenedG816 on himG846.
AndG1161 he beganG756 to sayG3004 untoG4314 themG846, ThisG3754 dayG4594 isG4137 thisG3778 scriptureG1124 fulfilledG4137 inG1722 yourG5216 earsG3775.
AndG2532 allG3956 bareG3140 himG846 witnessG3140, andG2532 wonderedG2296 atG1909 the graciousG5485 wordsG3056 whichG3588 proceededG1607 out ofG1537 hisG846 mouthG4750. AndG2532 they saidG3004, IsG2076 notG3756 thisG3778 Joseph'sG2501 sonG5207?
AndG2532 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, Ye willG2046 surelyG3843 sayG2046 unto meG3427 thisG5026 proverbG3850, PhysicianG2395, healG2323 thyselfG4572: whatsoeverG3745 we have heardG191 doneG1096 inG1722 CapernaumG2584, doG4160 alsoG2532 hereG5602 inG1722 thyG4675 countryG3968.
AndG1161 he saidG2036, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213+G3754, NoG3762 prophetG4396 isG2076 acceptedG1184 inG1722 his ownG846 countryG3968.
ButG1161 I tellG3004 youG5213 ofG1909 a truthG225, manyG4183 widowsG5503 wereG2258 inG1722 IsraelG2474 inG1722 the daysG2250 of EliasG2243, whenG3753 the heavenG3772 was shut upG2808+G1909 threeG5140 yearsG2094 andG2532 sixG1803 monthsG3376, whenG5613 greatG3173 famineG3042 wasG1096 throughoutG1909 allG3956 the landG1093;
ButG2532 untoG4314 noneG3762 of themG846 wasG3992 EliasG2243 sentG3992, saveG1508 untoG1519 SareptaG4558, a city of SidonG4605, untoG4314 a womanG1135 that was a widowG5503.
AndG2532 manyG4183 lepersG3015 wereG2258 inG1722 IsraelG2474 in the timeG1909 of EliseusG1666 the prophetG4396; andG2532 noneG3762 of themG846 was cleansedG2511, savingG1508 NaamanG3497 the SyrianG4948.
AndG2532 all theyG3956 inG1722 the synagogueG4864, when they heardG191 these thingsG5023, were filledG4130 with wrathG2372,
AndG2532 rose upG450, and thrustG1544 himG846 out ofG1854 the cityG4172, andG2532 ledG71 himG846 untoG2193 the browG3790 of the hillG3735 whereonG1909+G3739 theirG846 cityG4172 was builtG3618, thatG1519 they might castG2630 himG846 down headlongG2630. {brow: or, edge}
ButG1161 heG846 passingG1330 throughG1223 the midstG3319 of themG846 went his wayG4198,
AndG2532 came downG2718 toG1519 CapernaumG2584, a cityG4172 of GalileeG1056, andG2532 taughtG1321 themG846+G2258 onG1722 the sabbath daysG4521.
AndG2532 they were astonishedG1605 atG1909 hisG846 doctrineG1322: forG3754 hisG846 wordG3056 wasG2258 withG1722 powerG1849.
AndG2532 inG1722 the synagogueG4864 there wasG2258 a manG444, which hadG2192 a spiritG4151 of an uncleanG169 devilG1140, andG2532 cried outG349 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456,
SayingG3004, Let us aloneG1436; whatG5101 have we to doG2254 with theeG4671+G2532, thou JesusG2424 of NazarethG3479? art thou comeG2064 to destroyG622 usG2248? I knowG1492 theeG4571 whoG5101 thou artG1488; the Holy OneG40 of GodG2316. {Let…: or, Away}
AndG2532 JesusG2424 rebukedG2008 himG846, sayingG3004, Hold thy peaceG5392, andG2532 comeG1831 out ofG1537 himG846. AndG2532 when the devilG1140 had thrownG4496 himG846 inG1519 the midstG3319, he cameG1831 out ofG575 himG846, and hurtG984 himG846 notG3367.
AndG2532 they wereG1096 allG1909+G3956 amazedG2285, andG2532 spakeG4814 amongG4314 themselvesG240, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 a wordG3056 is thisG3778! forG3754 withG1722 authorityG1849 andG2532 powerG1411 he commandethG2004 the uncleanG169 spiritsG4151, andG2532 they come outG1831.
AndG2532 the fameG2279 ofG4012 himG846 went outG1607 intoG1519 everyG3956 placeG5117 of the country round aboutG4066.
AndG1161 he aroseG450 out ofG1537 the synagogueG4864, and enteredG1525 intoG1519 Simon'sG4613 houseG3614. AndG1161 Simon'sG4613 wife's motherG3994 wasG2258 taken withG4912 a greatG3173 feverG4446; andG2532 they besoughtG2065 himG846 forG4012 herG846.
AndG2532 he stoodG2186 overG1883 herG846, and rebukedG2008 the feverG4446; andG2532 it leftG863 herG846: and immediatelyG3916 she aroseG450 andG1161 ministeredG1247 unto themG846.
NowG1161 when the sunG2246 was settingG1416, allG3956 they thatG3745 hadG2192 any sickG770 with diversG4164 diseasesG3554 broughtG71 themG846 untoG4314 himG846; andG1161 he laidG2007 his handsG5495 onG2007 everyG1538 oneG1520 of themG846, and healedG2323 themG846.
AndG1161 devilsG1140 alsoG2532 cameG1831 out ofG575 manyG4183, crying outG2896, andG2532 sayingG3004+G3754, ThouG4771 artG1488 ChristG5547 the SonG5207 of GodG2316. AndG2532 he rebukingG2008 them sufferedG1439 themG846 notG3756 to speakG2980: forG3754 they knewG1492 that heG846 wasG1511 ChristG5547. {to speak…: or, to say that they knew him to be Christ}
AndG1161 when it wasG1096 dayG2250, he departedG1831 and wentG4198 intoG1519 a desertG2048 placeG5117: andG2532 the peopleG3793 soughtG2212 himG846, andG2532 cameG2064 untoG2193 himG846, andG2532 stayedG2722 himG846, that he should notG3361 departG4198 fromG575 themG846.
AndG1161 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846+G3754, IG3165 mustG1163 preachG2097 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 to otherG2087 citiesG4172 alsoG2532: forG3754 thereforeG1519+G5124 am I sentG649.
AndG2532 he preachedG2258+G2784 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 of GalileeG1056.
WhoG3739, when he was reviledG3058, reviledG486 notG3756 againG486; when he sufferedG3958, he threatenedG546 notG3756; butG1161 committedG3860 himself to him that judgethG2919 righteouslyG1346: {himself: or, his cause}
WhoG5101 shall lay any thingG1458 to the chargeG2596 of God'sG2316 electG1588? It is GodG2316 that justifiethG1344.
WhoG3739 deliveredG4506 usG2248 fromG1537 so greatG5082 a deathG2288, andG2532 doth deliverG4506: inG1519 whomG3739 we trustG1679 thatG3754 he willG4506+G2532 yetG2089 deliverG4506 us;
These are the generationsH8435 of NoahH5146: NoahH5146 was a justH6662 manH376 and perfectH8549 in his generationsH1755, and NoahH5146 walkedH1980 with GodH430. {perfect: or, upright}
And in all mattersH1697 of wisdomH2451 and understandingH998, that the kingH4428 enquiredH1245 of them, he foundH4672 them ten timesH6235 betterH3027 than all the magiciansH2748 and astrologersH825 that were in all his realmH4438. {wisdom…: Heb. wisdom of understanding}
ThereforeH3606+H6903+H1836 DanielH1841 went inH5954 untoH5922 AriochH746, whom the kingH4430 had ordainedH4483 to destroyH7 the wiseH2445 men of BabylonH895: he wentH236 and saidH560 thusH3652 unto him; DestroyH7 notH409 the wiseH2445 men of BabylonH895: bring me inH5954 beforeH6925 the kingH4430, and I will shewH2324 unto the kingH4430 the interpretationH6591.
ThenH116 AriochH746 brought inH5954 DanielH1841 beforeH6925 the kingH4430 in hasteH927, and saidH560 thusH3652 unto him, I have foundH7912 a manH1400 of the captivesH1123+H1547 ofH4481 JudahH3061, that will make knownH3046 unto the kingH4430 the interpretationH6591. {I have…: Cald. That I have found} {captives…: Cald. children of the captivity of Judah}
The kingH4430 answeredH6032 and saidH560 to DanielH1841, whose nameH8036 was BelteshazzarH1096, ArtH383 thou ableH3546 to make knownH3046 unto me the dreamH2493 which I have seenH2370, and the interpretationH6591 thereof?
DanielH1841 answeredH6032 in the presenceH6925 of the kingH4430, and saidH560, The secretH7328 which the kingH4430 hath demandedH7593 cannotH3202+H3809 the wiseH2445 men, the astrologersH826, the magiciansH2749, the soothsayersH1505, shewH2324 unto the kingH4430;
ButH1297 there isH383 a GodH426 in heavenH8065 that revealethH1541 secretsH7328, and maketh knownH3046 to the kingH4430 NebuchadnezzarH5020 whatH4101 shall beH1934 in the latterH320 daysH3118. Thy dreamH2493, and the visionsH2376 of thy headH7217 uponH5922 thy bedH4903, are theseH1836; {maketh…: Cald. hath made known}
As for theeH607, O kingH4430, thy thoughtsH7476 cameH5559 into thy mind uponH5922 thy bedH4903, whatH4101 should come to passH1934 hereafterH311+H1836: and he that revealethH1541 secretsH7328 maketh knownH3046 to thee whatH4101 shall come to passH1934. {came: Cald. came up}
But as for meH576, thisH1836 secretH7328 is notH3809 revealedH1541 to me for any wisdomH2452 that I haveH383 more thanH4481 anyH3606 livingH2417, butH3861 for their sakesH1701 thatH5922 shall make knownH3046 the interpretationH6591 to the kingH4430, and that thou mightest knowH3046 the thoughtsH7476 of thy heartH3825. {but for…: or, but for the intent that the interpretation may be made known to the king}
Behold, thou art wiserH2450 than DanielH1840; there is no secretH5640 that they can hideH6004 from thee:
Therefore takeH3947 unto you now sevenH7651 bullocksH6499 and sevenH7651 ramsH352, and goH3212 to my servantH5650 JobH347, and offer upH5927 for yourselves a burnt offeringH5930; and my servantH5650 JobH347 shall prayH6419 for you: for himH6440 will I acceptH5375: lest I dealH6213 with you after your follyH5039, in that ye have not spokenH1696 of me the thing which is rightH3559, like my servantH5650 JobH347. {him: Heb. his face, or, person}
NowG1161 faithG4102 isG2076 the substanceG5287 of things hoped forG1679, the evidenceG1650 of thingsG4229 notG3756 seenG991. {substance: or, ground, or, confidence}
ForG1063 byG1722 itG5026 the eldersG4245 obtained a good reportG3140.
Through faithG4102 we understandG3539 that the worldsG165 were framedG2675 by the wordG4487 of GodG2316, soG1519 that things whichG3588 are seenG991 wereG1096 notG3361 madeG1096 ofG1537 things which do appearG5316.
By faithG4102 AbelG6 offeredG4374 unto GodG2316 a more excellentG4119 sacrificeG2378 thanG3844 CainG2535, byG1223 whichG3739 he obtained witnessG3140 that he wasG1511 righteousG1342, GodG2316 testifyingG3140 ofG1909 hisG846 giftsG1435: andG2532 byG1223 itG846 he being deadG599 yetG2089 speakethG2980. {yet…: or, is yet spoken of}
By faithG4102 EnochG1802 was translatedG3346 that he shouldG1492 notG3361 seeG1492 deathG2288; andG2532 wasG2147 notG3756 foundG2147, becauseG1360 GodG2316 had translatedG3346 himG846: forG1063 beforeG4253 hisG846 translationG3331 he had this testimonyG3140, that he pleasedG2100 GodG2316.
ButG1161 withoutG5565 faithG4102 it is impossibleG102 to pleaseG2100 him: forG1063 he that comethG4334 to GodG2316 mustG1163 believeG4100 thatG3754 he isG2076, andG2532 that he isG1096 a rewarderG3406 of them that diligently seekG1567 himG846.
By faithG4102 NoahG3575, being warned of GodG5537 ofG4012 things notG3369 seenG991 as yetG3369, moved with fearG2125, preparedG2680 an arkG2787 toG1519 the savingG4991 of hisG846 houseG3624; byG1223 the whichG3739 he condemnedG2632 the worldG2889, andG2532 becameG1096 heirG2818 of the righteousnessG1343 which is byG2596 faithG4102. {moved…: or, being wary}
By faithG4102 AbrahamG11, when he was calledG2564 to go outG1831 intoG1519 a placeG5117 whichG3739 he should afterG3195 receiveG2983 forG1519 an inheritanceG2817, obeyedG5219; andG2532 he went outG1831, notG3361 knowingG1987 whitherG4226 he wentG2064.
By faithG4102 he sojournedG3939 inG1519 the landG1093 of promiseG1860, asG5613 in a strange countryG245, dwellingG2730 inG1722 tabernaclesG4633 withG3326 IsaacG2464 andG2532 JacobG2384, the heirs with himG4789 of the sameG846 promiseG1860:
ForG1063 he looked forG1551 a cityG4172 which hathG2192 foundationsG2310, whoseG3739 builderG5079 andG2532 makerG1217 is GodG2316.
Through faithG4102 alsoG2532 SaraG4564 herselfG846 receivedG2983 strengthG1411 toG1519 conceiveG2602 seedG4690, andG2532 was delivered of a childG5088 when she was pastG3844 ageG2540+G2244, becauseG1893 she judgedG2233 him faithfulG4103 who had promisedG1861.
ThereforeG1352 sprang thereG1080 evenG2532 ofG575 oneG1520, andG2532 himG5023 as good as deadG3499, so many asG2531 the starsG798 of the skyG3772 in multitudeG4128, andG2532 asG5616 the sandG285 whichG3588 is byG3844 the seaG2281 shoreG5491 innumerableG382.
TheseG3778 allG3956 diedG599 inG2596 faithG4102, notG3361 having receivedG2983 the promisesG1860, butG235 having seenG1492 themG846 afar offG4207, andG2532 were persuaded ofG3982 them, andG2532 embracedG782 them, andG2532 confessedG3670 thatG3754 they wereG1526 strangersG3581 andG2532 pilgrimsG3927 onG1909 the earthG1093. {in faith: Gr. according to faith}
ForG1063 they that sayG3004 such thingsG5108 declare plainlyG1718 thatG3754 they seekG1934 a countryG3968.
AndG2532 trulyG3303, ifG1487 they had been mindfulG3421 of thatG1565 country fromG575 whenceG3739 they came outG1831, they mightG302 have hadG2192 opportunityG2540 to have returnedG344.
ButG1161 nowG3570 they desireG3713 a betterG2909 country, that isG5123, an heavenlyG2032: whereforeG1352 GodG2316 isG1870 notG3756 ashamedG1870+G846 to be calledG1941 theirG846 GodG2316: forG1063 he hath preparedG2090 for themG846 a cityG4172.
By faithG4102 AbrahamG11, when he was triedG3985, offered upG4374 IsaacG2464: andG2532 he that had receivedG324 the promisesG1860 offered upG4374 his only begottenG3439 son,
OfG4314 whomG3739 it was saidG2980, ThatG3754 inG1722 IsaacG2464 shallG2564 thyG4671 seedG4690 be calledG2564: {of: or, to}
AccountingG3049 thatG3754 GodG2316 was ableG1415 to raise him upG1453, evenG2532 fromG1537 the deadG3498; from whenceG3606 alsoG2532 he receivedG2865 himG846 inG1722 a figureG3850.
By faithG4102 IsaacG2464 blessedG2127 JacobG2384 andG2532 EsauG2269 concerningG4012 things to comeG3195.
By faithG4102 JacobG2384, when he was a dyingG599, blessedG2127 bothG1538 the sonsG5207 of JosephG2501; andG2532 worshippedG4352, leaning uponG1909 the topG206 of hisG846 staffG4464.
By faithG4102 JosephG2501, when he diedG5053, made mentionG3421 ofG4012 the departingG1841 of the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474; andG2532 gave commandmentG1781 concerningG4012 hisG846 bonesG3747. {made…: or, remembered}
By faithG4102 MosesG3475, when he was bornG1080, was hidG2928 three monthsG5150 ofG5259 hisG846 parentsG3962, becauseG1360 they sawG1492 he was a properG791 childG3813; andG2532 they wereG5399 notG3756 afraidG5399 of the king'sG935 commandmentG1297.
By faithG4102 MosesG3475, when he was comeG1096 to yearsG3173, refusedG720 to be calledG3004 the sonG5207 of Pharaoh'sG5328 daughterG2364;
ChoosingG138 ratherG3123 to suffer afflictionG4778 with the peopleG2992 of GodG2316, thanG2228 to enjoy the pleasuresG2192+G619 of sinG266 for a seasonG4340;
EsteemingG2233 the reproachG3680 of ChristG5547 greaterG3187 richesG4149 thanG2233 the treasuresG2344 inG1722 EgyptG125: forG1063 he had respectG578 untoG1519 the recompence of the rewardG3405. {of Christ: or, for Christ}
By faithG4102 he forsookG2641 EgyptG125, notG3361 fearingG5399 the wrathG2372 of the kingG935: forG1063 he enduredG2594, asG5613 seeingG3708 him who is invisibleG517.
Through faithG4102 he keptG4160 the passoverG3957, andG2532 the sprinklingG4378 of bloodG129, lestG3363 he that destroyedG3645 the firstbornG4416 should touchG2345 themG846.
By faithG4102 they passed throughG1224 the RedG2063 seaG2281 asG5613 byG1223 dryG3584 land: whichG3739 the EgyptiansG124 assayingG3984 to doG2983 were drownedG2666.
By faithG4102 the wallsG5038 of JerichoG2410 fell downG4098, after they were compassedG2944 aboutG1909 sevenG2033 daysG2250.
By faithG4102 the harlotG4204 RahabG4460 perishedG4881 notG3756 with them that believed notG544, when she had receivedG1209 the spiesG2685 withG3326 peaceG1515. {that…: or, that were disobedient}
AndG2532 whatG5101 shall IG3004 moreG2089 sayG3004? forG1063 the timeG5550 would failG1952 meG3165 to tellG1334 ofG4012 GedeonG1066, andG5037 of BarakG913, andG2532 of SamsonG4546, andG2532 of JephthaeG2422; of DavidG1138 alsoG2532, andG5037 SamuelG4545, andG2532 of the prophetsG4396:
WhoG3739 throughG1223 faithG4102 subduedG2610 kingdomsG932, wroughtG2038 righteousnessG1343, obtainedG2013 promisesG1860, stoppedG5420 the mouthsG4750 of lionsG3023,
QuenchedG4570 the violenceG1411 of fireG4442, escapedG5343 the edgeG4750 of the swordG3162, out ofG575 weaknessG769 were made strongG1743, waxedG1096 valiantG2478 inG1722 fightG4171, turned to flightG2827 the armiesG3925 of the aliensG245.
WomenG1135 receivedG2983 theirG846 deadG3498 raised to life againG1537+G386: andG1161 othersG243 were torturedG5178, notG3756 acceptingG4327 deliveranceG629; thatG2443 they might obtainG5177 a betterG2909 resurrectionG386:
AndG1161 othersG2087 hadG2983 trialG3984 of cruel mockingsG1701 andG2532 scourgingsG3148, yeaG1161, moreoverG2089 of bondsG1199 andG2532 imprisonmentG5438:
They were stonedG3034, they were sawn asunderG4249, were temptedG3985, were slainG599 withG1722 the swordG5408+G3162: they wandered aboutG4022 inG1722 sheepskinsG3374 andG1722 goatskinsG122+G1192; being destituteG5302, afflictedG2346, tormentedG2558;
(Of whomG3739 the worldG2889 wasG2258 notG3756 worthyG514:) they wanderedG4105 inG1722 desertsG2047, andG2532 in mountainsG3735, andG2532 in densG4693 andG2532 cavesG3692 of the earthG1093.
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}
In the firstH259 yearH8141 of DariusH1867 the sonH1121 of AhasuerusH325, of the seedH2233 of the MedesH4074, which was made kingH4427 over the realmH4438 of the ChaldeansH3778; {which: or, in which he}
In the firstH259 yearH8141 of his reignH4427 I DanielH1840 understoodH995 by booksH5612 the numberH4557 of the yearsH8141, whereof the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, that he would accomplishH4390 seventyH7657 yearsH8141 in the desolationsH2723 of JerusalemH3389.
And I setH5414 my faceH6440 unto the LordH136 GodH430, to seekH1245 by prayerH8605 and supplicationsH8469, with fastingH6685, and sackclothH8242, and ashesH665:
And I prayedH6419 unto the LORDH3068 my GodH430, and made my confessionH3034, and saidH559, OH577 LordH136, the greatH1419 and dreadfulH3372 GodH410, keepingH8104 the covenantH1285 and mercyH2617 to them that loveH157 him, and to them that keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687;
We have sinnedH2398, and have committed iniquityH5753, and have done wickedlyH7561, and have rebelledH4775, even by departingH5493 from thy preceptsH4687 and from thy judgmentsH4941:
Neither have we hearkenedH8085 unto thy servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, which spakeH1696 in thy nameH8034 to our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, and our fathersH1, and to all the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
O LordH136, righteousnessH6666 belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusionH1322 of facesH6440, as at this dayH3117; to the menH376 of JudahH3063, and to the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and unto all IsraelH3478, that are nearH7138, and that are far offH7350, through all the countriesH776 whither thou hast drivenH5080 them, because of their trespassH4604 that they have trespassedH4603 against thee. {belongeth…: or, thou hast}
O LORDH3068, to us belongeth confusionH1322 of faceH6440, to our kingsH4428, to our princesH8269, and to our fathersH1, because we have sinnedH2398 against thee.
To the LordH136 our GodH430 belong merciesH7356 and forgivenessesH5547, though we have rebelledH4775 against him;
Neither have we obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430, to walkH3212 in his lawsH8451, which he setH5414 beforeH6440 us byH3027 his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030.
Yea, all IsraelH3478 have transgressedH5674 thy lawH8451, even by departingH5493, that they might not obeyH8085 thy voiceH6963; therefore the curseH423 is pouredH5413 upon us, and the oathH7621 that is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of GodH430, because we have sinnedH2398 against him.
And he hath confirmedH6965 his wordsH1697, which he spakeH1696 against us, and against our judgesH8199 that judgedH8199 us, by bringingH935 upon us a greatH1419 evilH7451: for under the whole heavenH8064 hath not been doneH6213 as hath been doneH6213 upon JerusalemH3389.
As it is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of MosesH4872, all this evilH7451 is comeH935 upon us: yet made we not our prayerH2470 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 our GodH430, that we might turnH7725 from our iniquitiesH5771, and understandH7919 thy truthH571. {made…: Heb. intreated we not the face of the, etc}
Therefore hath the LORDH3068 watchedH8245 upon the evilH7451, and broughtH935 it upon us: for the LORDH3068 our GodH430 is righteousH6662 in all his worksH4639 which he doethH6213: for we obeyedH8085 not his voiceH6963.
And now, O LordH136 our GodH430, that hast broughtH3318 thy peopleH5971 forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 with a mightyH2389 handH3027, and hast gottenH6213 thee renownH8034, as at this dayH3117; we have sinnedH2398, we have done wickedlyH7561. {gotten…: Heb. made thee a name}
O LordH136, according to all thy righteousnessH6666, I beseech thee, let thine angerH639 and thy furyH2534 be turned awayH7725 from thy cityH5892 JerusalemH3389, thy holyH6944 mountainH2022: because for our sinsH2399, and for the iniquitiesH5771 of our fathersH1, JerusalemH3389 and thy peopleH5971 are become a reproachH2781 to all that are aboutH5439 us.
Now therefore, O our GodH430, hearH8085 the prayerH8605 of thy servantH5650, and his supplicationsH8469, and cause thy faceH6440 to shineH215 upon thy sanctuaryH4720 that is desolateH8076, for the Lord'sH136 sake.
O my GodH430, inclineH5186 thine earH241, and hearH8085; openH6491 thine eyesH5869, and beholdH7200 our desolationsH8074, and the cityH5892 which is calledH7121 by thy nameH8034: for we do not presentH5307 our supplicationsH8469 beforeH6440 thee for our righteousnessesH6666, but for thy greatH7227 merciesH7356. {which…: Heb. whereupon thy name is called} {present: Heb. cause to fall}
O LordH136, hearH8085; O LordH136, forgiveH5545; O LordH136, hearkenH7181 and doH6213; deferH309 notH408, for thine own sake, O my GodH430: for thy cityH5892 and thy peopleH5971 are calledH7121 by thy nameH8034.
And whiles I was speakingH1696, and prayingH6419, and confessingH3034 my sinH2403 and the sinH2403 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and presentingH5307 my supplicationH8467 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 my GodH430 for the holyH6944 mountainH2022 of my GodH430;
Yea, whiles I was speakingH1696 in prayerH8605, even the manH376 GabrielH1403, whom I had seenH7200 in the visionH2377 at the beginningH8462, being caused to flyH3286 swiftlyH3288, touchedH5060 me about the timeH6256 of the eveningH6153 oblationH4503. {swiftly: Heb. with weariness, or, flight}
And he informedH995 me, and talkedH1696 with me, and saidH559, O DanielH1840, I am now come forthH3318 to give thee skillH7919 and understandingH998. {to…: Heb. to make thee skilful of}
At the beginningH8462 of thy supplicationsH8469 the commandmentH1697 came forthH3318, and I am comeH935 to shewH5046 thee; for thou art greatly belovedH2532: therefore understandH995 the matterH1697, and considerH995 the visionH4758. {commandment: Heb. word} {greatly…: Heb. a man of desires}
SeventyH7657 weeksH7620 are determinedH2852 upon thy peopleH5971 and upon thy holyH6944 cityH5892, to finishH3607 the transgressionH6588, and to make an endH8552+H2856 of sinsH2403, and to make reconciliationH3722 for iniquityH5771, and to bring inH935 everlastingH5769 righteousnessH6664, and to seal upH2856 the visionH2377 and prophecyH5030, and to anointH4886 the mostH6944 HolyH6944. {finish: or, restrain} {make an…: or, seal up} {prophecy: Heb. prophet}
KnowH3045 therefore and understandH7919, that from the going forthH4161 of the commandmentH1697 to restoreH7725 and to buildH1129 JerusalemH3389 unto the MessiahH4899 the PrinceH5057 shall be sevenH7651 weeksH7620, and threescoreH8346 and twoH8147 weeksH7620: the streetH7339 shall be builtH1129 againH7725, and the wallH2742, even in troublousH6695 timesH6256. {be built…: Heb. return and be built} {wall: or, breach, or, ditch} {troublous: Heb. strait of}
And afterH310 threescoreH8346 and twoH8147 weeksH7620 shall MessiahH4899 be cut offH3772, but not for himself: and the peopleH5971 of the princeH5057 that shall comeH935 shall destroyH7843 the cityH5892 and the sanctuaryH6944; and the endH7093 thereof shall be with a floodH7858, and unto the endH7093 of the warH4421 desolationsH8074 are determinedH2782. {but…: or, and shall have nothing} {desolations…: or, it shall be cut off by desolations}
And he shall confirmH1396 the covenantH1285 with manyH7227 for oneH259 weekH7620: and in the midstH2677 of the weekH7620 he shall cause the sacrificeH2077 and the oblationH4503 to ceaseH7673, and for the overspreadingH3671 of abominationsH8251 he shall make it desolateH8074, even until the consummationH3617, and that determinedH2782 shall be pouredH5413 upon the desolateH8074. {the covenant: or, a covenant} {for the…: or, with the abominable armies} {the desolate: or, the desolator}
BeholdG2400, we count them happyG3106 which endureG5278. Ye have heardG191 of the patienceG5281 of JobG2492, andG2532 have seenG1492 the endG5056 of the LordG2962; thatG3754 the LordG2962 isG2076 very pitifulG4184, andG2532 of tender mercyG3629.
These are the familiesH4940 of the sonsH1121 of NoahH5146, after their generationsH8435, in their nationsH1471: and by these were the nationsH1471 dividedH6504 in the earthH776 afterH310 the floodH3999.
WhenG3752 ye thereforeG3767 shall seeG1492 the abominationG946 of desolationG2050, spoken ofG4483 byG1223 DanielG1158 the prophetG4396, standG2476 inG1722 the holyG40 placeG5117, (whoso readethG314, let him understandG3539:)
BeholdG2400, we count them happyG3106 which endureG5278. Ye have heardG191 of the patienceG5281 of JobG2492, andG2532 have seenG1492 the endG5056 of the LordG2962; thatG3754 the LordG2962 isG2076 very pitifulG4184, andG2532 of tender mercyG3629.
But NoahH5146 foundH4672 graceH2580 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068.
It pleasedH6925+H8232 DariusH1868 to setH6966 overH5922 the kingdomH4437 an hundredH3969 and twentyH6243 princesH324, which should beH1934 over the wholeH3606 kingdomH4437;
And overH5924 theseH4481 threeH8532 presidentsH5632; of whomH4481 DanielH1841 was firstH2298: thatH459 the princesH324 mightH1934 giveH3052 accountsH2941 unto them, and the kingH4430 should haveH1934 noH3809 damageH5142.
ThenH116 thisH1836 DanielH1841 wasH1934 preferredH5330 aboveH5922 the presidentsH5632 and princesH324, becauseH3606+H6903 an excellentH3493 spiritH7308 was in him; and the kingH4430 thoughtH6246 to setH6966 him overH5922 the wholeH3606 realmH4437.
ThenH116 the presidentsH5632 and princesH324 soughtH1934+H1156 to findH7912 occasionH5931 against DanielH1841 concerningH6655 the kingdomH4437; butH3606 they couldH3202 findH7912 noneH3809 occasionH5931 norH3809 faultH7844; forasmuchH6903 as he was faithfulH540, neitherH3809 was there anyH3606 errorH7960 or faultH7844 foundH7912 in himH5922.
ThenH116 saidH560 theseH479 menH1400, We shall notH3809 findH7912 anyH3606 occasionH5931 againstH5922 thisH1836 DanielH1841, exceptH3861 we findH7912 it against him concerning the lawH1882 of his GodH426.
ThenH116 theseH459 presidentsH5632 and princesH324 assembled togetherH7284 to the kingH4430, and saidH560 thusH3652 unto himH5922, KingH4430 DariusH1868, liveH2418 for everH5957. {assembled…: or, came tumultuously}
AllH3606 the presidentsH5632 of the kingdomH4437, the governorsH5460, and the princesH324, the counsellorsH1907, and the captainsH6347, have consulted togetherH3272 to establishH6966 a royalH4430 statuteH7010, and to make a firmH8631 decreeH633, that whosoever shall askH1156 a petitionH1159 ofH4481 anyH3606 GodH426 or manH606 forH5705 thirtyH8533 daysH3118, saveH3861 of theeH4481, O kingH4430, he shall be castH7412 into the denH1358 of lionsH744. {decree: or, interdict}
NowH3705, O kingH4430, establishH6966 the decreeH633, and signH7560 the writingH3792, that it be notH3809 changedH8133, according to the lawH1882 of the MedesH4076 and PersiansH6540, which alterethH5709 notH3809. {altereth not: Cald. passeth not}
WhereforeH3606+H1836+H6903 kingH4430 DariusH1868 signedH7560 the writingH3792 and the decreeH633.
Now when DanielH1841 knewH3046 that the writingH3792 was signedH7560, he wentH5954 into his houseH1005; and his windowsH3551 being openH6606 in his chamberH5952 towardH5049 JerusalemH3390, he kneeledH1289 uponH5922 his kneesH1291 threeH8532 timesH2166 a dayH3118, and prayedH6739, and gave thanksH3029 beforeH6925 his GodH426, asH6903+H3606 he didH1934+H5648 aforetimeH4481+H1836+H6928.
ThenH116 theseH479 menH1400 assembledH7284, and foundH7912 DanielH1841 prayingH1156 and making supplicationH2604 beforeH6925 his GodH426.
ThenH116 they came nearH7127, and spakeH560 beforeH6925 the kingH4430 concerningH5922 the king'sH4430 decreeH633; Hast thou notH3809 signedH7560 a decreeH633, that everyH3606 manH606 that shall askH1156 a petition ofH4481 anyH3606 GodH426 or manH606 withinH5705 thirtyH8533 daysH3118, saveH3861 of theeH4481, O kingH4430, shall be castH7412 into the denH1358 of lionsH744? The kingH4430 answeredH6032 and saidH560, The thingH4406 is trueH3330, according to the lawH1882 of the MedesH4076 and PersiansH6540, which alterethH5709 notH3809.
ThenH116 answeredH6032 they and saidH560 beforeH6925 the kingH4430, That DanielH1841, which is ofH4481 the childrenH1123 of the captivityH1547 of JudahH3061, regardethH7761+H2942 notH3809 theeH5922, O kingH4430, nor the decreeH633 that thou hast signedH7560, but makethH1156 his petitionH1159 threeH8532 timesH2166 a dayH3118.
ThenH116 the kingH4430, when he heardH8086 these wordsH4406, was soreH7690 displeasedH888 with himself, and setH7761 his heartH1079 onH5922 DanielH1841 to deliverH7804 him: and he labouredH1934+H7712 tillH5705 the going downH4606 of the sunH8122 to deliverH5338 him.
ThenH116 theseH479 menH1400 assembledH7284 untoH5922 the kingH4430, and saidH560 unto the kingH4430, KnowH3046, O kingH4430, that the lawH1882 of the MedesH4076 and PersiansH6540 is, That noH3606 decreeH633 nor statuteH7010 which the kingH4430 establishethH6966 may be changedH8133.
ThenH116 the kingH4430 commandedH560, and they broughtH858 DanielH1841, and castH7412 him into the denH1358 of lionsH744. Now the kingH4430 spakeH6032 and saidH560 unto DanielH1841, Thy GodH426 whom thouH607 servestH6399 continuallyH8411, he will deliverH7804 thee.
And aH2298 stoneH69 was broughtH858, and laidH7761 uponH5922 the mouthH6433 of the denH1358; and the kingH4430 sealedH2857 it with his own signetH5824, and with the signetH5824 of his lordsH7261; that the purposeH6640 might notH3809 be changedH8133 concerning DanielH1841.
ThenH116 the kingH4430 wentH236 to his palaceH1965, and passed the nightH956 fastingH2908: neitherH3809 were instrumentsH1761 of musick broughtH5954 beforeH6925 him: and his sleepH8139 wentH5075 from himH5922. {instruments…: or, table}
ThenH116 the kingH4430 aroseH6966 very earlyH8238 in the morningH5053, and wentH236 in hasteH927 unto the denH1358 of lionsH744.
And when he cameH7127 to the denH1358, he criedH2200 with a lamentableH6088 voiceH7032 unto DanielH1841: and the kingH4430 spakeH6032 and saidH560 to DanielH1841, O DanielH1841, servantH5649 of the livingH2417 GodH426, is thy GodH426, whom thou servestH6399 continuallyH8411, ableH3202 to deliverH7804 thee fromH4481 the lionsH744?
ThenH116 saidH4449 DanielH1841 untoH5974 the kingH4430, O kingH4430, liveH2418 for everH5957.
My GodH426 hath sentH7972 his angelH4398, and hath shutH5463 the lions'H744 mouthsH6433, that they have notH3809 hurtH2255 me: forasmuch asH3606+H6903 beforeH6925 him innocencyH2136 was foundH7912 in me; and alsoH638 beforeH6925 thee, O kingH4430, have I doneH5648 noH3809 hurtH2248.
ThenH116 was the kingH4430 exceedingH7690 gladH2868 for himH5922, and commandedH560 that they should takeH5267 DanielH1841 upH5267 out ofH4481 the denH1358. So DanielH1841 was taken upH5267 out ofH4481 the denH1358, and noH3809 mannerH3606 of hurtH2257 was foundH7912 upon him, because he believedH540 in his GodH426.
And the kingH4430 commandedH560, and they broughtH858 thoseH479 menH1400 which had accusedH399+H7170 DanielH1841, and they castH7412 them into the denH1358 of lionsH744, themH581, their childrenH1123, and their wivesH5389; and the lionsH744 had the masteryH5705+H7981 of them, and brakeH1855 allH3606 their bonesH1635 in piecesH1855 or everH3809 they cameH4291 at the bottomH773 of the denH1358.
ThenH116 kingH4430 DariusH1868 wroteH3790 unto allH3606 peopleH5972, nationsH524, and languagesH3961, that dwellH1753 in allH3606 the earthH772; PeaceH8001 be multipliedH7680 unto you.
IH4481+H6925 makeH7761 a decreeH2942, That in everyH3606 dominionH7985 of my kingdomH4437 men trembleH1934+H2112 and fearH1763 beforeH4481+H6925 the GodH426 of DanielH1841: for he is the livingH2417 GodH426, and stedfastH7011 for everH5957, and his kingdomH4437 that which shall notH3809 be destroyedH2255, and his dominionH7985 shall be even untoH5705 the endH5491.
He deliverethH7804 and rescuethH5338, and he workethH5648 signsH852 and wondersH8540 in heavenH8065 and in earthH772, who hath deliveredH7804 DanielH1841 fromH4481 the powerH3028 of the lionsH744. {power: Cald. hand}
So thisH1836 DanielH1841 prosperedH6744 in the reignH4437 of DariusH1868, and in the reignH4437 of CyrusH3567 the PersianH6543.
In the firstH259 yearH8141 of DariusH1867 the sonH1121 of AhasuerusH325, of the seedH2233 of the MedesH4074, which was made kingH4427 over the realmH4438 of the ChaldeansH3778; {which: or, in which he}
In the firstH259 yearH8141 of his reignH4427 I DanielH1840 understoodH995 by booksH5612 the numberH4557 of the yearsH8141, whereof the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, that he would accomplishH4390 seventyH7657 yearsH8141 in the desolationsH2723 of JerusalemH3389.
And I setH5414 my faceH6440 unto the LordH136 GodH430, to seekH1245 by prayerH8605 and supplicationsH8469, with fastingH6685, and sackclothH8242, and ashesH665:
And I prayedH6419 unto the LORDH3068 my GodH430, and made my confessionH3034, and saidH559, OH577 LordH136, the greatH1419 and dreadfulH3372 GodH410, keepingH8104 the covenantH1285 and mercyH2617 to them that loveH157 him, and to them that keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687;
We have sinnedH2398, and have committed iniquityH5753, and have done wickedlyH7561, and have rebelledH4775, even by departingH5493 from thy preceptsH4687 and from thy judgmentsH4941:
Neither have we hearkenedH8085 unto thy servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, which spakeH1696 in thy nameH8034 to our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, and our fathersH1, and to all the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
O LordH136, righteousnessH6666 belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusionH1322 of facesH6440, as at this dayH3117; to the menH376 of JudahH3063, and to the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and unto all IsraelH3478, that are nearH7138, and that are far offH7350, through all the countriesH776 whither thou hast drivenH5080 them, because of their trespassH4604 that they have trespassedH4603 against thee. {belongeth…: or, thou hast}
O LORDH3068, to us belongeth confusionH1322 of faceH6440, to our kingsH4428, to our princesH8269, and to our fathersH1, because we have sinnedH2398 against thee.
To the LordH136 our GodH430 belong merciesH7356 and forgivenessesH5547, though we have rebelledH4775 against him;
Neither have we obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430, to walkH3212 in his lawsH8451, which he setH5414 beforeH6440 us byH3027 his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030.
Yea, all IsraelH3478 have transgressedH5674 thy lawH8451, even by departingH5493, that they might not obeyH8085 thy voiceH6963; therefore the curseH423 is pouredH5413 upon us, and the oathH7621 that is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of GodH430, because we have sinnedH2398 against him.
And he hath confirmedH6965 his wordsH1697, which he spakeH1696 against us, and against our judgesH8199 that judgedH8199 us, by bringingH935 upon us a greatH1419 evilH7451: for under the whole heavenH8064 hath not been doneH6213 as hath been doneH6213 upon JerusalemH3389.
As it is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of MosesH4872, all this evilH7451 is comeH935 upon us: yet made we not our prayerH2470 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 our GodH430, that we might turnH7725 from our iniquitiesH5771, and understandH7919 thy truthH571. {made…: Heb. intreated we not the face of the, etc}
Therefore hath the LORDH3068 watchedH8245 upon the evilH7451, and broughtH935 it upon us: for the LORDH3068 our GodH430 is righteousH6662 in all his worksH4639 which he doethH6213: for we obeyedH8085 not his voiceH6963.
And now, O LordH136 our GodH430, that hast broughtH3318 thy peopleH5971 forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 with a mightyH2389 handH3027, and hast gottenH6213 thee renownH8034, as at this dayH3117; we have sinnedH2398, we have done wickedlyH7561. {gotten…: Heb. made thee a name}
O LordH136, according to all thy righteousnessH6666, I beseech thee, let thine angerH639 and thy furyH2534 be turned awayH7725 from thy cityH5892 JerusalemH3389, thy holyH6944 mountainH2022: because for our sinsH2399, and for the iniquitiesH5771 of our fathersH1, JerusalemH3389 and thy peopleH5971 are become a reproachH2781 to all that are aboutH5439 us.
Now therefore, O our GodH430, hearH8085 the prayerH8605 of thy servantH5650, and his supplicationsH8469, and cause thy faceH6440 to shineH215 upon thy sanctuaryH4720 that is desolateH8076, for the Lord'sH136 sake.
O my GodH430, inclineH5186 thine earH241, and hearH8085; openH6491 thine eyesH5869, and beholdH7200 our desolationsH8074, and the cityH5892 which is calledH7121 by thy nameH8034: for we do not presentH5307 our supplicationsH8469 beforeH6440 thee for our righteousnessesH6666, but for thy greatH7227 merciesH7356. {which…: Heb. whereupon thy name is called} {present: Heb. cause to fall}
O LordH136, hearH8085; O LordH136, forgiveH5545; O LordH136, hearkenH7181 and doH6213; deferH309 notH408, for thine own sake, O my GodH430: for thy cityH5892 and thy peopleH5971 are calledH7121 by thy nameH8034.
And whiles I was speakingH1696, and prayingH6419, and confessingH3034 my sinH2403 and the sinH2403 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and presentingH5307 my supplicationH8467 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 my GodH430 for the holyH6944 mountainH2022 of my GodH430;
Yea, whiles I was speakingH1696 in prayerH8605, even the manH376 GabrielH1403, whom I had seenH7200 in the visionH2377 at the beginningH8462, being caused to flyH3286 swiftlyH3288, touchedH5060 me about the timeH6256 of the eveningH6153 oblationH4503. {swiftly: Heb. with weariness, or, flight}
And he informedH995 me, and talkedH1696 with me, and saidH559, O DanielH1840, I am now come forthH3318 to give thee skillH7919 and understandingH998. {to…: Heb. to make thee skilful of}
At the beginningH8462 of thy supplicationsH8469 the commandmentH1697 came forthH3318, and I am comeH935 to shewH5046 thee; for thou art greatly belovedH2532: therefore understandH995 the matterH1697, and considerH995 the visionH4758. {commandment: Heb. word} {greatly…: Heb. a man of desires}
SeventyH7657 weeksH7620 are determinedH2852 upon thy peopleH5971 and upon thy holyH6944 cityH5892, to finishH3607 the transgressionH6588, and to make an endH8552+H2856 of sinsH2403, and to make reconciliationH3722 for iniquityH5771, and to bring inH935 everlastingH5769 righteousnessH6664, and to seal upH2856 the visionH2377 and prophecyH5030, and to anointH4886 the mostH6944 HolyH6944. {finish: or, restrain} {make an…: or, seal up} {prophecy: Heb. prophet}
KnowH3045 therefore and understandH7919, that from the going forthH4161 of the commandmentH1697 to restoreH7725 and to buildH1129 JerusalemH3389 unto the MessiahH4899 the PrinceH5057 shall be sevenH7651 weeksH7620, and threescoreH8346 and twoH8147 weeksH7620: the streetH7339 shall be builtH1129 againH7725, and the wallH2742, even in troublousH6695 timesH6256. {be built…: Heb. return and be built} {wall: or, breach, or, ditch} {troublous: Heb. strait of}
And afterH310 threescoreH8346 and twoH8147 weeksH7620 shall MessiahH4899 be cut offH3772, but not for himself: and the peopleH5971 of the princeH5057 that shall comeH935 shall destroyH7843 the cityH5892 and the sanctuaryH6944; and the endH7093 thereof shall be with a floodH7858, and unto the endH7093 of the warH4421 desolationsH8074 are determinedH2782. {but…: or, and shall have nothing} {desolations…: or, it shall be cut off by desolations}
And he shall confirmH1396 the covenantH1285 with manyH7227 for oneH259 weekH7620: and in the midstH2677 of the weekH7620 he shall cause the sacrificeH2077 and the oblationH4503 to ceaseH7673, and for the overspreadingH3671 of abominationsH8251 he shall make it desolateH8074, even until the consummationH3617, and that determinedH2782 shall be pouredH5413 upon the desolateH8074. {the covenant: or, a covenant} {for the…: or, with the abominable armies} {the desolate: or, the desolator}
Then JobH347 answeredH6030 the LORDH3068, and saidH559,
I knowH3045 that thou canst doH3201 every thing, and that no thoughtH4209 can be withholdenH1219 from thee. {no thought can be…: or, no thought of thine can be hindered}
Who is he that hidethH5956 counselH6098 without knowledgeH1847? therefore have I utteredH5046 that I understoodH995 not; things too wonderfulH6381 for me, which I knewH3045 not.
HearH8085, I beseech thee, and I will speakH1696: I will demandH7592 of thee, and declareH3045 thou unto me.
I have heardH8085 of thee by the hearingH8088 of the earH241: but now mine eyeH5869 seethH7200 thee.
Wherefore I abhorH3988 myself, and repentH5162 in dustH6083 and ashesH665.
And it was so, that afterH310 the LORDH3068 had spokenH1696 these wordsH1697 unto JobH347, the LORDH3068 saidH559 to EliphazH464 the TemaniteH8489, My wrathH639 is kindledH2734 against thee, and against thy twoH8147 friendsH7453: for ye have not spokenH1696 of me the thing that is rightH3559, as my servantH5650 JobH347 hath.
Therefore takeH3947 unto you now sevenH7651 bullocksH6499 and sevenH7651 ramsH352, and goH3212 to my servantH5650 JobH347, and offer upH5927 for yourselves a burnt offeringH5930; and my servantH5650 JobH347 shall prayH6419 for you: for himH6440 will I acceptH5375: lest I dealH6213 with you after your follyH5039, in that ye have not spokenH1696 of me the thing which is rightH3559, like my servantH5650 JobH347. {him: Heb. his face, or, person}
So EliphazH464 the TemaniteH8489 and BildadH1085 the ShuhiteH7747 and ZopharH6691 the NaamathiteH5284 wentH3212, and didH6213 according as the LORDH3068 commandedH1696 them: the LORDH3068 also acceptedH5375 JobH6440+H347. {Job: Heb. the face of Job}
And the LORDH3068 turnedH7725 the captivityH7622+H7622 of JobH347, when he prayedH6419 for his friendsH7453: also the LORDH3068 gaveH3254 JobH347 twice as muchH4932 as he had before. {gave…: Heb. added all that had been to Job unto the double}
Then cameH935 there unto him all his brethrenH251, and all his sistersH269, and all they that had been of his acquaintanceH3045 beforeH6440, and did eatH398 breadH3899 with him in his houseH1004: and they bemoanedH5110 him, and comfortedH5162 him over all the evilH7451 that the LORDH3068 had broughtH935 upon him: every manH376 also gaveH5414 him aH259 piece of moneyH7192, and every oneH376 an earringH5141 of goldH2091.
So the LORDH3068 blessedH1288 the latter endH319 of JobH347 more than his beginningH7225: for he had fourteenH702+H6240 thousandH505 sheepH6629, and sixH8337 thousandH505 camelsH1581, and a thousandH505 yokeH6776 of oxenH1241, and a thousandH505 she assesH860.
He had also sevenH7658 sonsH1121 and threeH7969 daughtersH1323.
And he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of the firstH259, JemimaH3224; and the nameH8034 of the secondH8145, KeziaH7103; and the nameH8034 of the thirdH7992, KerenhappuchH7163.
And in all the landH776 were no womenH802 foundH4672 so fairH3303 as the daughtersH1323 of JobH347: and their fatherH1 gaveH5414 them inheritanceH5159 amongH8432 their brethrenH251.
AfterH310 this livedH2421 JobH347 an hundredH3967 and fortyH705 yearsH8141, and sawH7200 his sonsH1121, and his sons'H1121 sonsH1121, even fourH702 generationsH1755.
So JobH347 diedH4191, being oldH2205 and fullH7649 of daysH3117.
Then saidH559 the LORDH3068 unto me, Though MosesH4872 and SamuelH8050 stoodH5975 beforeH6440 me, yet my mindH5315 could not be toward this peopleH5971: cast them outH7971 of my sightH6440, and let them go forthH3318.
The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came again to me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, when the landH776 sinnethH2398 against me by trespassingH4603 grievouslyH4604, then will I stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 upon it, and will breakH7665 the staffH4294 of the breadH3899 thereof, and will sendH7971 famineH7458 upon it, and will cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it:
Though these threeH7969 menH582, NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347, were in itH8432, they should deliverH5337 but their own soulsH5315 by their righteousnessH6666, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
IfH3863 I cause noisomeH7451 beastsH2416 to pass throughH5674 the landH776, and they spoilH7921 it, so that it be desolateH8077, that no man may pass throughH5674 becauseH6440 of the beastsH2416: {spoil: or, bereave}
Though these threeH7969 menH582 were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonsH1121 nor daughtersH1323; they only shall be deliveredH5337, but the landH776 shall be desolateH8077. {in it: Heb. in the midst of it}
Or if I bringH935 a swordH2719 upon that landH776, and sayH559, SwordH2719, go throughH5674 the landH776; so that I cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it:
Though these threeH7969 menH582 were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonsH1121 nor daughtersH1323, but they only shall be deliveredH5337 themselves.
Or if I sendH7971 a pestilenceH1698 into that landH776, and pour outH8210 my furyH2534 upon it in bloodH1818, to cut offH3772 from it manH120 and beastH929:
Though NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347, were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonH1121 norH518 daughterH1323; they shall but deliverH5337 their own soulsH5315 by their righteousnessH6666.
At the mouthH6310 of twoH8147 witnessesH5707, or threeH7969 witnessesH5707, shall he that is worthy of deathH4191 be put to deathH4191; but at the mouthH6310 of oneH259 witnessH5707 he shall not be put to deathH4191.
OneH259 witnessH5707 shall not rise upH6965 against a manH376 for any iniquityH5771, or for any sinH2403, in any sinH2399 that he sinnethH2398: at the mouthH6310 of twoH8147 witnessesH5707, or at the mouthH6310 of threeH7969 witnessesH5707, shall the matterH1697 be establishedH6965.
It isG1125 alsoG1161 writtenG1125 inG1722 yourG5212 lawG3551, thatG3754 the testimonyG3141 of twoG1417 menG444 isG2076 trueG227.
And the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 unto him in the plainsH436 of MamreH4471: and he satH3427 in the tentH168 doorH6607 in the heatH2527 of the dayH3117;
And he lift upH5375 his eyesH5869 and lookedH7200, and, lo, threeH7969 menH582 stoodH5324 by him: and when he sawH7200 them, he ranH7323 to meetH7125 them from the tentH168 doorH6607, and bowedH7812 himself toward the groundH776,
And saidH559, My LordH136, if now I have foundH4672 favourH2580 in thy sightH5869, pass not awayH5674, I pray thee, from thy servantH5650:
Let a littleH4592 waterH4325, I pray youH4994, be fetchedH3947, and washH7364 your feetH7272, and rest yourselvesH8172 under the treeH6086:
And I will fetchH3947 a morselH6595 of breadH3899, and comfort yeH5582 your heartsH3820; after thatH310 ye shall pass onH5674: for therefore are ye comeH5674 toH5921 your servantH5650. And they saidH1696, So doH6213, as thou hast saidH559. {comfort: Heb. stay} {are…: Heb. you have passed}
And AbrahamH85 hastenedH4116 into the tentH168 unto SarahH8283, and saidH559, Make ready quicklyH4116 threeH7969 measuresH5429 of fineH5560 mealH7058, kneadH3888 it, and makeH6213 cakesH5692 upon the hearthH6213. {Make ready…: Heb. Hasten}
And AbrahamH85 ranH7323 unto the herdH1241, and fetchtH3947 a calfH1121+H1241 tenderH7390 and goodH2896, and gaveH5414 it unto a young manH5288; and he hastedH4116 to dressH6213 it.
And he tookH3947 butterH2529, and milkH2461, and the calfH1121+H1241 which he had dressedH6213, and setH5414 it before themH6440; and he stoodH5975 by them under the treeH6086, and they did eatH398.
And they saidH559 unto him, WhereH346 is SarahH8283 thy wifeH802? And he saidH559, Behold, in the tentH168.
And he saidH559, I will certainlyH7725 returnH7725 unto thee according to the timeH6256 of lifeH2416; and, lo, SarahH8283 thy wifeH802 shall have a sonH1121. And SarahH8283 heardH8085 it in the tentH168 doorH6607, which was behind himH310.
Now AbrahamH85 and SarahH8283 were oldH2205 and well strickenH935 in ageH3117; and it ceasedH2308 to be with SarahH8283 after the mannerH734 of womenH802.
Therefore SarahH8283 laughedH6711 within herselfH7130, sayingH559, AfterH310 I am waxed oldH1086 shall I have pleasureH5730, my lordH113 being old alsoH2204?
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto AbrahamH85, WhereforeH4100 did SarahH8283 laughH6711, sayingH559, Shall I of a suretyH552 bearH3205 a child, whichH589 am oldH2204?
IsH6381 any thingH1697 too hardH6381 for the LORDH3068? At the time appointedH4150 I will returnH7725 unto thee, according to the timeH6256 of lifeH2416, and SarahH8283 shall have a sonH1121.
Then SarahH8283 deniedH3584, sayingH559, I laughedH6711 not; for she was afraidH3372. And he saidH559, NayH3808; but thou didst laughH6711.
And the menH582 rose upH6965 from thence, and lookedH8259 towardH6440 SodomH5467: and AbrahamH85 wentH1980 with them to bring them on the wayH7971.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, Shall I hideH3680 from AbrahamH85 that thing whichH834 I doH6213;
Seeing that AbrahamH85 shall surely become a greatH1419 and mightyH6099 nationH1471, and all the nationsH1471 of the earthH776 shall be blessedH1288 in him?
For I knowH3045 him, thatH834 he will commandH6680 his childrenH1121 and his householdH1004 after himH310, and they shall keepH8104 the wayH1870 of the LORDH3068, to doH6213 justiceH6666 and judgmentH4941; that the LORDH3068 may bringH935 upon AbrahamH85 that which he hath spokenH1696 of him.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, Because the cryH2201 of SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017 is greatH7227, and because their sinH2403 is veryH3966 grievousH3513;
I will go downH3381 now, and seeH7200 whether they have doneH6213 altogetherH3617 according to the cryH6818 of it, which is comeH935 unto me; and if not, I will knowH3045.
And the menH582 turned their facesH6437 from thence, and wentH3212 toward SodomH5467: but AbrahamH85 stoodH5975 yetH5750 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
And AbrahamH85 drew nearH5066, and saidH559, Wilt thou also destroyH5595 the righteousH6662 withH5973 the wickedH7563?
Peradventure there beH3426 fiftyH2572 righteousH6662 withinH8432 the cityH5892: wilt thou also destroyH5595 and not spareH5375 the placeH4725 forH4616 the fiftyH2572 righteousH6662 that are thereinH7130?
That be farH2486 from thee to doH6213 after this mannerH1697, to slayH4191 the righteousH6662 with the wickedH7563: and that the righteousH6662 should be as the wickedH7563, that be farH2486 from thee: Shall not the JudgeH8199 of all the earthH776 doH6213 rightH4941?
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, If I findH4672 in SodomH5467 fiftyH2572 righteousH6662 withinH8432 the cityH5892, then I will spareH5375 all the placeH4725 for their sakes.
And AbrahamH85 answeredH6030 and saidH559, Behold now, I have taken upon meH2974 to speakH1696 unto the LordH136, whichH595 am but dustH6083 and ashesH665:
Peradventure there shall lackH2637 fiveH2568 of the fiftyH2572 righteousH6662: wilt thou destroyH7843 all the cityH5892 for lack of fiveH2568? And he saidH559, If I findH4672 there fortyH705 and fiveH2568, I will not destroyH7843 it.
And he spakeH1696 unto him yet againH3254, and saidH559, Peradventure there shall be fortyH705 foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not doH6213 it for forty'sH705 sake.
And he saidH559 unto him, OhH4994 let not the LordH136 be angryH2734, and I will speakH1696: Peradventure there shall thirtyH7970 be foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not doH6213 it, if I findH4672 thirtyH7970 there.
And he saidH559, Behold now, I have taken upon meH2974 to speakH1696 unto the LordH136: Peradventure there shall be twentyH6242 foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not destroyH7843 it for twenty'sH6242 sake.
And he saidH559, Oh let not the LordH136 be angryH2734, and I will speakH1696 yetH389 but this onceH6471: Peradventure tenH6235 shall be foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not destroyH7843 it for ten'sH6235 sake.
And the LORDH3068 went his wayH3212, as soon asH834 he had leftH3615 communingH1696 with AbrahamH85: and AbrahamH85 returnedH7725 unto his placeH4725.
By faithG4102 NoahG3575, being warned of GodG5537 ofG4012 things notG3369 seenG991 as yetG3369, moved with fearG2125, preparedG2680 an arkG2787 toG1519 the savingG4991 of hisG846 houseG3624; byG1223 the whichG3739 he condemnedG2632 the worldG2889, andG2532 becameG1096 heirG2818 of the righteousnessG1343 which is byG2596 faithG4102. {moved…: or, being wary}
And NoahH5146 went inH935, and his sonsH1121, and his wifeH802, and his sons'H1121 wivesH802 with him, into the arkH8392, because ofH6440 the watersH4325 of the floodH3999.
Of cleanH2889 beastsH929, and of beastsH929 that are not cleanH2889, and of fowlsH5775, and of every thing that creepethH7430 upon the earthH127,
There went inH935 twoH8147 and twoH8147 unto NoahH5146 into the arkH8392, the maleH2145 and the femaleH5347, asH834 GodH430 had commandedH6680 NoahH5146.
ForH6903 thisH1836 causeH3606 the kingH4430 was angryH1149 and veryH7690 furiousH7108, and commandedH560 to destroyH7 allH3606 the wiseH2445 men of BabylonH895.
Then DanielH1841 went inH5954, and desiredH1156 ofH4481 the kingH4430 that he would giveH5415 him timeH2166, and that he would shewH2324 the kingH4430 the interpretationH6591.
That they would desireH1156 merciesH7359 ofH4481+H6925 the GodH426 of heavenH8065 concerningH5922 thisH1836 secretH7328; that DanielH1841 and his fellowsH2269 should notH3809 perishH7 withH5974 the restH7606 of the wiseH2445 men of BabylonH895. {of the God: Cald. from before God} {that Daniel…: or, that they should not destroy Daniel, etc}
ThereforeH3606+H6903+H1836 DanielH1841 went inH5954 untoH5922 AriochH746, whom the kingH4430 had ordainedH4483 to destroyH7 the wiseH2445 men of BabylonH895: he wentH236 and saidH560 thusH3652 unto him; DestroyH7 notH409 the wiseH2445 men of BabylonH895: bring me inH5954 beforeH6925 the kingH4430, and I will shewH2324 unto the kingH4430 the interpretationH6591.
Therefore takeH3947 unto you now sevenH7651 bullocksH6499 and sevenH7651 ramsH352, and goH3212 to my servantH5650 JobH347, and offer upH5927 for yourselves a burnt offeringH5930; and my servantH5650 JobH347 shall prayH6419 for you: for himH6440 will I acceptH5375: lest I dealH6213 with you after your follyH5039, in that ye have not spokenH1696 of me the thing which is rightH3559, like my servantH5650 JobH347. {him: Heb. his face, or, person}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto AbramH87, afterH310 that LotH3876 was separatedH6504 from him, Lift upH5375 now thine eyesH5869, and lookH7200 from the placeH4725 where thou art northwardH6828, and southwardH5045, and eastwardH6924, and westwardH3220:
The sameG1722+G1565 dayG2250 wentG1831 JesusG2424 out ofG575 the houseG3614, and satG2521 byG3844 the sea sideG2281.
AndG2532 greatG4183 multitudesG3793 were gathered togetherG4863 untoG4314 himG846, so thatG5620 heG846 wentG1684 intoG1519 a shipG4143, and satG2521; andG2532 the wholeG3956 multitudeG3793 stoodG2476 onG1909 the shoreG123.
AndG2532 he spakeG2980 many thingsG4183 unto themG846 inG1722 parablesG3850, sayingG3004, BeholdG2400, a sowerG4687 went forthG1831 to sowG4687;
AndG2532 whenG1722 heG846 sowedG4687, someG3739+G3303 seeds fellG4098 byG3844 the way sideG3598, andG2532 the fowlsG4071 cameG2064 andG2532 devouredG2719 themG846 upG2719:
SomeG1161+G243 fellG4098 uponG1909 stony placesG4075, whereG3699 they hadG2192 notG3756 muchG4183 earthG1093: andG2532 forthwithG2112 they sprung upG1816, becauseG1223 they hadG2192 noG3361 deepnessG899 of earthG1093:
AndG1161 when the sunG2246 was upG393, they were scorchedG2739; andG2532 becauseG1223 they hadG2192 noG3361 rootG4491, they withered awayG3583.
AndG1161 someG243 fellG4098 amongG1909 thornsG173; andG2532 the thornsG173 sprung upG305, andG2532 chokedG638 themG846:
ButG1161 otherG243 fellG4098 intoG1909 goodG2570 groundG1093, andG2532 brought forthG1325 fruitG2590, someG3739+G3303 an hundredfoldG1540+G1161, someG3739 sixtyfoldG1835+G1161, someG3739 thirtyfoldG5144.
WhoG3588 hathG2192 earsG3775 to hearG191, let him hearG191.
AndG2532 the disciplesG3101 cameG4334, and saidG2036 unto himG846, WhyG1302 speakest thouG2980 unto themG846 inG1722 parablesG3850?
He answeredG611 andG1161 saidG2036 unto themG846, BecauseG3754 it is givenG1325 unto youG5213 to knowG1097 the mysteriesG3466 of the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772, butG1161 to themG1565 it isG1325 notG3756 givenG1325.
ForG1063 whosoeverG3748 hathG2192, to himG846 shall be givenG1325, andG2532 he shall have more abundanceG4052: butG1161 whosoeverG3748 hathG2192 notG3756, fromG575 himG846 shall be taken awayG142 evenG2532 thatG3739 he hathG2192.
ThereforeG1223+G5124 speak IG2980 to themG846 inG1722 parablesG3850: becauseG3754 they seeingG991 seeG991 notG3756; andG2532 hearingG191 they hearG191 notG3756, neitherG3761 do they understandG4920.
AndG2532 inG1909 themG846 is fulfilledG378 the prophecyG4394 of EsaiasG2268, whichG3588 saithG3004, By hearingG189 ye shall hearG191, andG2532 shallG4920 notG3364 understandG4920; andG2532 seeingG991 ye shall seeG991, andG2532 shallG1492 notG3364 perceiveG1492:
ForG1063 thisG5127 people'sG2992 heartG2588 is waxed grossG3975, andG2532 their earsG3775 are dullG917 of hearingG191, andG2532 theirG846 eyesG3788 they have closedG2576; lest at any timeG3379 they should seeG1492 with their eyesG3788, andG2532 hearG191 with their earsG3775, andG2532 should understandG4920 with their heartG2588, andG2532 should be convertedG1994, andG2532 I should healG2390 themG846.
ButG1161 blessedG3107 are yourG5216 eyesG3788, forG3754 they seeG991: andG2532 yourG5216 earsG3775, forG3754 they hearG191.
ForG1063 verilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 manyG4183 prophetsG4396 andG2532 righteousG1342 men have desiredG1937 to seeG1492 those things whichG3739 ye seeG991, andG2532 haveG1492 notG3756 seenG1492 them; andG2532 to hearG191 those things whichG3739 ye hearG191, andG2532 haveG191 notG3756 heardG191 them.
HearG191 yeG5210 thereforeG3767 the parableG3850 of the sowerG4687.
When anyG3956 one hearethG191 the wordG3056 of the kingdomG932, andG2532 understandethG4920 it notG3361, then comethG2064 the wickedG4190 one, andG2532 catcheth awayG726 that whichG3588 was sownG4687 inG1722 hisG846 heartG2588. ThisG3778 isG2076 he which received seedG4687 byG3844 the way sideG3598.
ButG1161 he that received the seedG4687 intoG1909 stony placesG4075, the sameG3778 isG2076 he that hearethG191 the wordG3056, andG2532 anonG2117 withG3326 joyG5479 receivethG2983 itG846;
YetG1161 hath heG2192 notG3756 rootG4491 inG1722 himselfG1438, butG235 durethG2076 for a whileG4340: forG1161 when tribulationG2347 orG2228 persecutionG1375 arisethG1096 becauseG1223 of the wordG3056, by and byG2117 he is offendedG4624. {offended: he relapseth, or, falleth into sin}
He alsoG1161 that received seedG4687 amongG1519 the thornsG173 isG2076 he thatG3778 hearethG191 the wordG3056; andG2532 the careG3308 of thisG5127 worldG165, andG2532 the deceitfulnessG539 of richesG4149, chokeG4846 the wordG3056, andG2532 he becomethG1096 unfruitfulG175.
ButG1161 he that received seedG4687 intoG1909 the goodG2570 groundG1093 isG2076 heG3778 that hearethG191 the wordG3056, andG2532 understandethG4920 it; whichG3739 alsoG1211 beareth fruitG2592, andG2532 bringeth forthG4160, someG3739+G3303 an hundredfoldG1540+G1161, someG3739 sixtyG1835+G1161, someG3739 thirtyG5144.
AnotherG243 parableG3850 put he forthG3908 unto themG846, sayingG3004, The kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 is likenedG3666 unto a manG444 which sowedG4687 goodG2570 seedG4690 inG1722 hisG846 fieldG68:
ButG1161 whileG1722 menG444 sleptG2518, hisG846 enemyG2190 cameG2064 andG2532 sowedG4687 taresG2215 amongG303+G3319 the wheatG4621, andG2532 went his wayG565.
ButG1161 whenG3753 the bladeG5528 was sprung upG985, andG2532 brought forthG4160 fruitG2590, thenG5119 appearedG5316 the taresG2215 alsoG2532.
SoG1161 the servantsG1401 of the householderG3617 cameG4334 and saidG2036 unto himG846, SirG2962, didstG4687 notG3780 thou sowG4687 goodG2570 seedG4690 inG1722 thyG4674 fieldG68? from whenceG4159 thenG3767 hath itG2192 taresG2215?
He saidG5346 unto themG846, An enemyG2190+G444 hath doneG4160 thisG5124+G1161. The servantsG1401 saidG2036 unto himG846, Wilt thouG2309 thenG3767 that we goG565 and gatherG4816 themG846 upG4816?
ButG1161 he saidG5346, NayG3756; lestG3379 while ye gather upG4816 the taresG2215, ye root upG1610 also the wheatG4621 withG260 themG846.
LetG863 bothG297 grow togetherG4885 untilG3360 the harvestG2326: andG2532 inG1722 the timeG2540 of harvestG2326 I will sayG2046 to the reapersG2327, Gather ye togetherG4816 firstG4412 the taresG2215, andG2532 bindG1210 themG846 inG1519 bundlesG1197 toG4314 burnG2618 themG846: butG1161 gatherG4863 the wheatG4621 intoG1519 myG3450 barnG596.
AnotherG243 parableG3850 put he forthG3908 unto themG846, sayingG3004, The kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 isG2076 likeG3664 to a grainG2848 of mustard seedG4615, whichG3739 a manG444 tookG2983, and sowedG4687 inG1722 hisG846 fieldG68:
WhichG3739 indeedG3303 isG2076 the leastG3398 of allG3956 seedsG4690: butG1161 whenG3752 it is grownG837, it isG2076 the greatestG3187 among herbsG3001, andG2532 becomethG1096 a treeG1186, so thatG5620 the birdsG4071 of the airG3772 comeG2064 andG2532 lodgeG2681 inG1722 the branchesG2798 thereofG846.
AnotherG243 parableG3850 spake heG2980 unto themG846; The kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 isG2076 likeG3664 unto leavenG2219, whichG3739 a womanG1135 tookG2983, and hidG1470 inG1519 threeG5140 measuresG4568 of mealG224, tillG2193 the wholeG3650 wasG3739 leavenedG2220. {measures: the word in the Greek is a measure containing about a peck and a half, wanting a little more than a pint}
AllG3956 these thingsG5023 spakeG2980 JesusG2424 unto the multitudeG3793 inG1722 parablesG3850; andG2532 withoutG5565 a parableG3850 spake heG2980 notG3756 unto themG846:
ThatG3704 it might be fulfilledG4137 whichG3588 was spokenG4483 byG1223 the prophetG4396, sayingG3004, I will openG455 myG3450 mouthG4750 inG1722 parablesG3850; I will utterG2044 things which have been kept secretG2928 fromG575 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889.
ThenG5119 JesusG2424 sentG863 the multitudeG3793 awayG863, and wentG2064 intoG1519 the houseG3614: andG2532 hisG846 disciplesG3101 cameG4334 unto himG846, sayingG3004, DeclareG5419 unto usG2254 the parableG3850 of the taresG2215 of the fieldG68.
He answeredG611 andG1161 saidG2036 unto themG846, He that sowethG4687 the goodG2570 seedG4690 isG2076 the SonG5207 of manG444;
The fieldG68 isG2076 the worldG2889+G1161; the goodG2570 seedG4690 areG3778+G1526 the childrenG5207 of the kingdomG932; butG1161 the taresG2215 areG1526 the childrenG5207 of the wickedG4190 one;
The enemyG2190 that sowedG4687 themG846 isG2076 the devilG1228+G1161; the harvestG2326 isG2076 the endG4930 of the worldG165; andG1161 the reapersG2327 areG1526 the angelsG32.
AsG5618 thereforeG3767 the taresG2215 are gatheredG4816 andG2532 burnedG2618 in the fireG4442; soG3779 shall it beG2071 inG1722 the endG4930 of thisG5127 worldG165.
The SonG5207 of manG444 shall send forthG649 hisG846 angelsG32, andG2532 they shall gatherG4816 out ofG1537 hisG846 kingdomG932 all thingsG3956 that offendG4625, andG2532 them which doG4160 iniquityG458; {things…: or, scandals}
AndG2532 shall castG906 themG846 intoG1519 a furnaceG2575 of fireG4442: thereG1563 shall beG2071 wailingG2805 andG2532 gnashingG1030 of teethG3599.
ThenG5119 shall the righteousG1342 shine forthG1584 asG5613 the sunG2246 inG1722 the kingdomG932 of theirG846 FatherG3962. WhoG3588 hathG2192 earsG3775 to hearG191, let him hearG191.
AgainG3825, the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 isG2076 likeG3664 unto treasureG2344 hidG2928 inG1722 a fieldG68; the whichG3739 when a manG444 hath foundG2147, he hidethG2928, andG2532 forG575 joyG5479 thereofG846 goethG5217 andG2532 sellethG4453 allG3956 thatG3745 he hathG2192, andG2532 buyethG59 thatG1565 fieldG68.
AgainG3825, the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 isG2076 likeG3664 unto a merchantG1713 manG444, seekingG2212 goodlyG2570 pearlsG3135:
WhoG3739, when he had foundG2147 oneG1520 pearlG3135 of great priceG4186, wentG565 and soldG4097 allG3956 thatG3745 he hadG2192, andG2532 boughtG59 itG846.
AgainG3825, the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 isG2076 likeG3664 unto a netG4522, that was castG906 intoG1519 the seaG2281, andG2532 gatheredG4863 ofG1537 everyG3956 kindG1085:
WhichG3739, whenG3753 it was fullG4137, they drewG307 toG1909 shoreG123, andG2532 sat downG2523, and gatheredG4816 the goodG2570 intoG1519 vesselsG30, butG1161 castG906 the badG4550 awayG1854.
SoG3779 shall it beG2071 atG1722 the endG4930 of the worldG165: the angelsG32 shall come forthG1831, andG2532 severG873 the wickedG4190 fromG1537 amongG3319 the justG1342,
AndG2532 shall castG906 themG846 intoG1519 the furnaceG2575 of fireG4442: thereG1563 shall beG2071 wailingG2805 andG2532 gnashingG1030 of teethG3599.
JesusG2424 saithG3004 unto themG846, Have ye understoodG4920 allG3956 theseG5023 thingsG3956? They sayG3004 unto himG846, YeaG3483, LordG2962.
ThenG1161 saidG2036 he unto themG846, ThereforeG1223+G5124 everyG3956 scribeG1122 which is instructedG3100 untoG1519 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 isG2076 likeG3664 unto a manG444 that is an householderG3617, whichG3748 bringeth forthG1544 out ofG1537 hisG846 treasureG2344 things newG2537 andG2532 oldG3820.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that whenG3753 JesusG2424 had finishedG5055 theseG5025 parablesG3850, he departedG3332 thenceG1564.
AndG2532 when he was comeG2064 intoG1519 his ownG846 countryG3968, he taughtG1321 themG846 inG1722 theirG846 synagogueG4864, insomuch thatG5620 theyG846 were astonishedG1605, andG2532 saidG3004, WhenceG4159 hath this manG5129 thisG3778 wisdomG4678, andG2532 these mighty worksG1411?
IsG2076 notG3756 thisG3778 the carpenter'sG5045 sonG5207? isG3004 notG3780 hisG846 motherG3384 calledG3004 MaryG3137? andG2532 hisG846 brethrenG80, JamesG2385, andG2532 JosesG2500, andG2532 SimonG4613, andG2532 JudasG2455?
AndG2532 hisG846 sistersG79, are theyG1526 notG3780 allG3956 withG4314 usG2248? WhenceG4159 thenG3767 hath this manG5129 allG3956 these thingsG5023?
AndG2532 they were offendedG4624 inG1722 himG846. ButG1161 JesusG2424 saidG2036 unto themG846, A prophetG4396 isG2076 notG3756 without honourG820, saveG1508 inG1722 his ownG846 countryG3968, andG2532 inG1722 his ownG846 houseG3614.
AndG2532 he didG4160 notG3756 manyG4183 mighty worksG1411 thereG1563 becauseG1223 of theirG846 unbeliefG570.
AndG2532 he shall sendG649 hisG846 angelsG32 withG3326 a greatG3173 soundG5456 of a trumpetG4536, andG2532 they shall gather togetherG1996 hisG846 electG1588 fromG1537 the fourG5064 windsG417, fromG575 one endG206 of heavenG3772 toG2193 the otherG206+G846. {with…: or, with a trumpet, and a great voice}
ConfessG1843 your faultsG3900 one to anotherG240, andG2532 prayG2172 oneG240 forG5228 anotherG240, thatG3704 ye may be healedG2390. The effectual ferventG1754 prayerG1162 of a righteous manG1342 availethG2480 muchG4183.
AndG2532 I lookedG1492, andG2532 beholdG2400 a paleG5515 horseG2462: andG2532 hisG846 nameG3686 that satG2521 onG1883 himG846 was DeathG2288, andG2532 HellG86 followedG190 withG3326 himG846. AndG2532 powerG1849 was givenG1325 unto themG846 overG1909 the fourth partG5067 of the earthG1093, to killG615 withG1722 swordG4501, andG2532 withG1722 hungerG3042, andG2532 withG1722 deathG2288, andG2532 withG5259 the beastsG2342 of the earthG1093. {unto them: or, to him}
ButG235 whatG5101 saithG3004 the answer of GodG5538 unto himG846? I have reservedG2641 to myselfG1683 seven thousandG2035 menG435, whoG3748 haveG2578 notG3756 bowedG2578 the kneeG1119 to the image of BaalG896.
Even soG3779 thenG3767 atG1722 this presentG3568 timeG2540 alsoG2532 there isG1096 a remnantG3005 accordingG2596 to the electionG1589 of graceG5485.
Yet I have leftH7604 me sevenH7651 thousandH505 in IsraelH3478, all the kneesH1290 which have not bowedH3766 unto BaalH1168, and every mouthH6310 which hath not kissedH5401 him. {I have…: or, I will leave}
ButG235 whatG5101 saithG3004 the answer of GodG5538 unto himG846? I have reservedG2641 to myselfG1683 seven thousandG2035 menG435, whoG3748 haveG2578 notG3756 bowedG2578 the kneeG1119 to the image of BaalG896.
Yet, behold, therein shall be leftH3498 a remnantH6413 that shall be brought forthH3318, both sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323: behold, they shall come forthH3318 unto you, and ye shall seeH7200 their wayH1870 and their doingsH5949: and ye shall be comfortedH5162 concerning the evilH7451 that I have broughtH935 upon JerusalemH3389, even concerning all that I have broughtH935 upon it.
And they shall comfortH5162 you, when ye seeH7200 their waysH1870 and their doingsH5949: and ye shall knowH3045 that I have not doneH6213 without causeH2600 all that I have doneH6213 in it, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
Then cameH935 certainH582 of the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 unto me, and satH3427 beforeH6440 me.
And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, these menH582 have set upH5927 their idolsH1544 in their heartH3820, and putH5414 the stumblingblockH4383 of their iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 their faceH6440: should I be enquiredH1875 of at allH1875 by them?
Therefore speakH1696 unto them, and sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Every manH376 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 that setteth upH5927 his idolsH1544 in his heartH3820, and puttethH7760 the stumblingblockH4383 of his iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 his faceH6440, and comethH935 to the prophetH5030; I the LORDH3068 will answerH6030 him that comethH935 according to the multitudeH7230 of his idolsH1544;
That I may takeH8610 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 in their own heartH3820, because they are all estrangedH2114 from me through their idolsH1544.
Therefore sayH559 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; RepentH7725, and turnH7725 yourselves from your idolsH1544; and turn awayH7725 your facesH6440 from all your abominationsH8441. {yourselves: or, others}
For every oneH376 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, or of the strangerH1616 that sojournethH1481 in IsraelH3478, which separatethH5144 himself from meH310, and setteth upH5927 his idolsH1544 in his heartH3820, and puttethH7760 the stumblingblockH4383 of his iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 his faceH6440, and comethH935 to a prophetH5030 to enquireH1875 of him concerning me; I the LORDH3068 will answerH6030 him by myself:
And I will setH5414 my faceH6440 against that manH376, and will makeH8074 him a signH226 and a proverbH4912, and I will cut him offH3772 from the midstH8432 of my peopleH5971; and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
And if the prophetH5030 be deceivedH6601 when he hath spokenH1696 a thingH1697, I the LORDH3068 have deceivedH6601 that prophetH5030, and I will stretch outH5186 my handH3027 upon him, and will destroyH8045 him from the midstH8432 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.
And they shall bearH5375 the punishment of their iniquityH5771: the punishmentH5771 of the prophetH5030 shall be even as the punishmentH5771 of him that seekethH1875 unto him;
That the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 may go no more astrayH8582 from meH310, neither be pollutedH2930 any more with all their transgressionsH6588; but that they may be my peopleH5971, and I may be their GodH430, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came again to me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, when the landH776 sinnethH2398 against me by trespassingH4603 grievouslyH4604, then will I stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 upon it, and will breakH7665 the staffH4294 of the breadH3899 thereof, and will sendH7971 famineH7458 upon it, and will cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it:
Though these threeH7969 menH582, NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347, were in itH8432, they should deliverH5337 but their own soulsH5315 by their righteousnessH6666, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
IfH3863 I cause noisomeH7451 beastsH2416 to pass throughH5674 the landH776, and they spoilH7921 it, so that it be desolateH8077, that no man may pass throughH5674 becauseH6440 of the beastsH2416: {spoil: or, bereave}
Though these threeH7969 menH582 were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonsH1121 nor daughtersH1323; they only shall be deliveredH5337, but the landH776 shall be desolateH8077. {in it: Heb. in the midst of it}
Or if I bringH935 a swordH2719 upon that landH776, and sayH559, SwordH2719, go throughH5674 the landH776; so that I cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it:
Though these threeH7969 menH582 were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonsH1121 nor daughtersH1323, but they only shall be deliveredH5337 themselves.
Or if I sendH7971 a pestilenceH1698 into that landH776, and pour outH8210 my furyH2534 upon it in bloodH1818, to cut offH3772 from it manH120 and beastH929:
Though NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347, were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonH1121 norH518 daughterH1323; they shall but deliverH5337 their own soulsH5315 by their righteousnessH6666.
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; How much more when I sendH7971 my fourH702 soreH7451 judgmentsH8201 upon JerusalemH3389, the swordH2719, and the famineH7458, and the noisomeH7451 beastH2416, and the pestilenceH1698, to cut offH3772 from it manH120 and beastH929? {How…: or, Also when}
Yet, behold, therein shall be leftH3498 a remnantH6413 that shall be brought forthH3318, both sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323: behold, they shall come forthH3318 unto you, and ye shall seeH7200 their wayH1870 and their doingsH5949: and ye shall be comfortedH5162 concerning the evilH7451 that I have broughtH935 upon JerusalemH3389, even concerning all that I have broughtH935 upon it.
And they shall comfortH5162 you, when ye seeH7200 their waysH1870 and their doingsH5949: and ye shall knowH3045 that I have not doneH6213 without causeH2600 all that I have doneH6213 in it, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
Now it came to pass in the thirtiethH7970 yearH8141, in the fourthH7243 month, in the fifthH2568 day of the monthH2320, as I was amongH8432 the captivesH1473 by the riverH5104 of ChebarH3529, that the heavensH8064 were openedH6605, and I sawH7200 visionsH4759 of GodH430. {captives: Heb. captivity}
In the fifthH2568 day of the monthH2320, which was the fifthH2549 yearH8141 of kingH4428 Jehoiachin'sH3112 captivityH1546,
The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came expressly unto EzekielH3168 the priestH3548, the sonH1121 of BuziH941, in the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778 by the riverH5104 ChebarH3529; and the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was there upon him. {Ezekiel: Heb. Jehezkel}
Behold, thou art wiserH2450 than DanielH1840; there is no secretH5640 that they can hideH6004 from thee:
O LORDH3068, are not thine eyesH5869 upon the truthH530? thou hast strickenH5221 them, but they have not grievedH2342; thou hast consumedH3615 them, but they have refusedH3985 to receiveH3947 correctionH4148: they have made their facesH6440 harderH2388 than a rockH5553; they have refusedH3985 to returnH7725.
Mine eyesH5869 shall be upon the faithfulH539 of the landH776, that they may dwellH3427 with me: he that walkethH1980 in a perfectH8549 wayH1870, he shall serveH8334 me. {in a…: or, perfect in the way}
MoreoverG3063 it is requiredG2212 inG1722 stewardsG3623, thatG2443 a manG5100 be foundG2147 faithfulG4103.
ButG1161 the fruitG2590 of the SpiritG4151 isG2076 loveG26, joyG5479, peaceG1515, longsufferingG3115, gentlenessG5544, goodnessG19, faithG4102,
WhereforeG3606, holyG40 brethrenG80, partakersG3353 of the heavenlyG2032 callingG2821, considerG2657 the ApostleG652 andG2532 High PriestG749 of ourG2257 professionG3671, ChristG5547 JesusG2424;
Who wasG5607 faithfulG4103 to him that appointedG4160 himG846, asG5613 alsoG2532 MosesG3475 was faithful inG1722 allG3650 hisG846 houseG3624. {appointed: Gr. made}
ForG1063 thisG3778 man was counted worthyG515 of moreG4119 gloryG1391 thanG3844 MosesG3475, inasmuch asG2596+G3745 he who hath buildedG2680 the houseG3624 hath moreG4119 honourG5092 thanG2192 the houseG846.
ForG1063 everyG3956 houseG3624 is buildedG2680 byG5259 someG5100 man; butG1161 he that builtG2680 all thingsG3956 is GodG2316.
AndG2532 MosesG3475 verilyG3303 was faithfulG4103 inG1722 allG3650 hisG846 houseG3624, asG5613 a servantG2324, forG1519 a testimonyG3142 of those things which were to be spoken afterG2980;
ButG1161 ChristG5547 asG5613 a sonG5207 overG1909 his ownG846 houseG3624; whoseG3739 houseG3624 areG2070 weG2249, ifG1437+G4007 we hold fastG2722 the confidenceG3954 andG2532 the rejoicingG2745 of the hopeG1680 firmG949 untoG3360 the endG5056.
PaulG3972, calledG2822 to be an apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 throughG1223 the willG2307 of GodG2316, andG2532 SosthenesG4988 our brotherG80,
Then cameH935 certainH582 of the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 unto me, and satH3427 beforeH6440 me.
And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, these menH582 have set upH5927 their idolsH1544 in their heartH3820, and putH5414 the stumblingblockH4383 of their iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 their faceH6440: should I be enquiredH1875 of at allH1875 by them?
Therefore speakH1696 unto them, and sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Every manH376 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 that setteth upH5927 his idolsH1544 in his heartH3820, and puttethH7760 the stumblingblockH4383 of his iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 his faceH6440, and comethH935 to the prophetH5030; I the LORDH3068 will answerH6030 him that comethH935 according to the multitudeH7230 of his idolsH1544;
That I may takeH8610 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 in their own heartH3820, because they are all estrangedH2114 from me through their idolsH1544.
Therefore sayH559 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; RepentH7725, and turnH7725 yourselves from your idolsH1544; and turn awayH7725 your facesH6440 from all your abominationsH8441. {yourselves: or, others}
For every oneH376 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, or of the strangerH1616 that sojournethH1481 in IsraelH3478, which separatethH5144 himself from meH310, and setteth upH5927 his idolsH1544 in his heartH3820, and puttethH7760 the stumblingblockH4383 of his iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 his faceH6440, and comethH935 to a prophetH5030 to enquireH1875 of him concerning me; I the LORDH3068 will answerH6030 him by myself:
And I will setH5414 my faceH6440 against that manH376, and will makeH8074 him a signH226 and a proverbH4912, and I will cut him offH3772 from the midstH8432 of my peopleH5971; and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
And if the prophetH5030 be deceivedH6601 when he hath spokenH1696 a thingH1697, I the LORDH3068 have deceivedH6601 that prophetH5030, and I will stretch outH5186 my handH3027 upon him, and will destroyH8045 him from the midstH8432 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.
And they shall bearH5375 the punishment of their iniquityH5771: the punishmentH5771 of the prophetH5030 shall be even as the punishmentH5771 of him that seekethH1875 unto him;
That the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 may go no more astrayH8582 from meH310, neither be pollutedH2930 any more with all their transgressionsH6588; but that they may be my peopleH5971, and I may be their GodH430, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came again to me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, when the landH776 sinnethH2398 against me by trespassingH4603 grievouslyH4604, then will I stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 upon it, and will breakH7665 the staffH4294 of the breadH3899 thereof, and will sendH7971 famineH7458 upon it, and will cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it:
Though these threeH7969 menH582, NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347, were in itH8432, they should deliverH5337 but their own soulsH5315 by their righteousnessH6666, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
IfH3863 I cause noisomeH7451 beastsH2416 to pass throughH5674 the landH776, and they spoilH7921 it, so that it be desolateH8077, that no man may pass throughH5674 becauseH6440 of the beastsH2416: {spoil: or, bereave}
Though these threeH7969 menH582 were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonsH1121 nor daughtersH1323; they only shall be deliveredH5337, but the landH776 shall be desolateH8077. {in it: Heb. in the midst of it}
Or if I bringH935 a swordH2719 upon that landH776, and sayH559, SwordH2719, go throughH5674 the landH776; so that I cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it:
Though these threeH7969 menH582 were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonsH1121 nor daughtersH1323, but they only shall be deliveredH5337 themselves.
Or if I sendH7971 a pestilenceH1698 into that landH776, and pour outH8210 my furyH2534 upon it in bloodH1818, to cut offH3772 from it manH120 and beastH929:
Though NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347, were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonH1121 norH518 daughterH1323; they shall but deliverH5337 their own soulsH5315 by their righteousnessH6666.
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; How much more when I sendH7971 my fourH702 soreH7451 judgmentsH8201 upon JerusalemH3389, the swordH2719, and the famineH7458, and the noisomeH7451 beastH2416, and the pestilenceH1698, to cut offH3772 from it manH120 and beastH929? {How…: or, Also when}
Yet, behold, therein shall be leftH3498 a remnantH6413 that shall be brought forthH3318, both sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323: behold, they shall come forthH3318 unto you, and ye shall seeH7200 their wayH1870 and their doingsH5949: and ye shall be comfortedH5162 concerning the evilH7451 that I have broughtH935 upon JerusalemH3389, even concerning all that I have broughtH935 upon it.
And they shall comfortH5162 you, when ye seeH7200 their waysH1870 and their doingsH5949: and ye shall knowH3045 that I have not doneH6213 without causeH2600 all that I have doneH6213 in it, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
And at that timeH6256 shall MichaelH4317 stand upH5975, the greatH1419 princeH8269 which standethH5975 for the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971: and there shall beH1961 a timeH6256 of troubleH6869, such as never was since there was a nationH1471 even to that same timeH6256: and at that timeH6256 thy peopleH5971 shall be deliveredH4422, every one that shall be foundH4672 writtenH3789 in the bookH5612.
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.
And at that timeH6256 shall MichaelH4317 stand upH5975, the greatH1419 princeH8269 which standethH5975 for the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971: and there shall beH1961 a timeH6256 of troubleH6869, such as never was since there was a nationH1471 even to that same timeH6256: and at that timeH6256 thy peopleH5971 shall be deliveredH4422, every one that shall be foundH4672 writtenH3789 in the bookH5612.
And manyH7227 of them that sleepH3463 in the dustH6083 of the earthH127 shall awakeH6974, some to everlastingH5769 lifeH2416, and some to shameH2781 and everlastingH5769 contemptH1860.
And they that be wiseH7919 shall shineH2094 as the brightnessH2096 of the firmamentH7549; and they that turn manyH7227 to righteousnessH6663 as the starsH3556 for everH5769 and everH5703. {wise: or, teachers}
But thou, O DanielH1840, shut upH5640 the wordsH1697, and sealH2856 the bookH5612, even to the timeH6256 of the endH7093: manyH7227 shall run to and froH7751, and knowledgeH1847 shall be increasedH7235.
Then I DanielH1840 lookedH7200, and, behold, there stoodH5975 otherH312 twoH8147, the oneH259 on this sideH2008 of the bankH8193 of the riverH2975, and the otherH259 on that side of the bankH8193 of the riverH2975. {bank: Heb. lip} {bank: Heb. lip}
And one saidH559 to the manH376 clothedH3847 in linenH906, which was uponH4605 the watersH4325 of the riverH2975, How long shall it be to the endH7093 of these wondersH6382? {upon…: or, from above}
And I heardH8085 the manH376 clothedH3847 in linenH906, which was uponH4605 the watersH4325 of the riverH2975, when he held upH7311 his right handH3225 and his left handH8040 unto heavenH8064, and swareH7650 by him that livethH2416 for everH5769 that it shall be for a timeH4150, timesH4150, and an halfH2677; and when he shall have accomplishedH3615 to scatterH5310 the powerH3027 of the holyH6944 peopleH5971, all these things shall be finishedH3615. {a time…: or, part}
And I heardH8085, but I understoodH995 not: then saidH559 I, O my LordH113, what shall be the endH319 of these things?
And he saidH559, Go thy wayH3212, DanielH1840: for the wordsH1697 are closed upH5640 and sealedH2856 till the timeH6256 of the endH7093.
ManyH7227 shall be purifiedH1305, and made whiteH3835, and triedH6884; but the wickedH7563 shall do wickedlyH7561: and none of the wickedH7563 shall understandH995; but the wiseH7919 shall understandH995.
And from the timeH6256 that the dailyH8548 sacrifice shall be taken awayH5493, and the abominationH8251 that maketh desolateH8074 set upH5414, there shall be a thousandH505 two hundredH3967 and ninetyH8673 daysH3117. {the abomination: Heb. to set up the abomination} {maketh…: or, astonisheth}
BlessedH835 is he that waitethH2442, and comethH5060 to the thousandH505 threeH7969 hundredH3967 and fiveH2568 and thirtyH7970 daysH3117.
But go thou thy wayH3212 till the endH7093 be: for thou shalt restH5117, and standH5975 in thy lotH1486 at the endH7093 of the daysH3117. {for thou: or, and thou, etc}
AndG2532 JesusG2424 went outG1831, and departedG4198 fromG575 the templeG2411: andG2532 hisG846 disciplesG3101 cameG4334 to him for to shewG1925 himG846 the buildingsG3619 of the templeG2411.
AndG1161 JesusG2424 saidG2036 unto themG846, See yeG991 notG3756 allG3956 these thingsG5023? verilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, There shallG863 notG3364 be leftG863 hereG5602 one stoneG3037 uponG1909 anotherG3037, thatG3739 shallG2647 notG3364 be thrown downG2647.
AndG1161 as heG846 satG2521 uponG1909 the mountG3735 of OlivesG1636, the disciplesG3101 cameG4334 unto himG846 privatelyG2596+G2398, sayingG3004, TellG2036 usG2254, whenG4219 shallG2071 these thingsG5023 beG2071? andG2532 whatG5101 shall be the signG4592 of thyG4674 comingG3952, andG2532 of the endG4930 of the worldG165?
AndG2532 JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto themG846, Take heedG991 that noG3361 manG5100 deceiveG4105 youG5209.
ForG1063 manyG4183 shall comeG2064 inG1909 myG3450 nameG3686, sayingG3004, IG1473 amG1510 ChristG5547; andG2532 shall deceiveG4105 manyG4183.
AndG1161 ye shallG3195 hearG191 of warsG4171 andG2532 rumoursG189 of warsG4171: seeG3708 that ye beG2360 notG3361 troubledG2360: forG1063 allG3956 these things mustG1163 come to passG1096, butG235 the endG5056 isG2076 not yetG3768.
ForG1063 nationG1484 shall riseG1453 againstG1909 nationG1484, andG2532 kingdomG932 againstG1909 kingdomG932: andG2532 there shall beG2071 faminesG3042, andG2532 pestilencesG3061, andG2532 earthquakesG4578, in diversG2596 placesG5117.
AllG1161+G3956 theseG5023 are the beginningG746 of sorrowsG5604.
ThenG5119 shall they deliverG3860 youG5209 upG3860 toG1519 be afflictedG2347, andG2532 shall killG615 youG5209: andG2532 ye shall beG2071 hatedG3404 ofG5259 allG3956 nationsG1484 forG1223 myG3450 name's sakeG3686.
AndG2532 thenG5119 shall manyG4183 be offendedG4624, andG2532 shall betrayG3860 one anotherG240, andG2532 shall hateG3404 one anotherG240.
AndG2532 manyG4183 false prophetsG5578 shall riseG1453, andG2532 shall deceiveG4105 manyG4183.
AndG2532 becauseG1223 iniquityG458 shall aboundG4129, the loveG26 of manyG4183 shall wax coldG5594.
ButG1161 he that shall endureG5278 untoG1519 the endG5056, the sameG3778 shall be savedG4982.
AndG2532 thisG5124 gospelG2098 of the kingdomG932 shall be preachedG2784 inG1722 allG3650 the worldG3625 forG1519 a witnessG3142 unto allG3956 nationsG1484; andG2532 thenG5119 shall the endG5056 comeG2240.
WhenG3752 ye thereforeG3767 shall seeG1492 the abominationG946 of desolationG2050, spoken ofG4483 byG1223 DanielG1158 the prophetG4396, standG2476 inG1722 the holyG40 placeG5117, (whoso readethG314, let him understandG3539:)
ThenG5119 let them which be inG1722 JudaeaG2449 fleeG5343 intoG1909 the mountainsG3735:
Let him which is onG1909 the housetopG1430 notG3361 come downG2597 to takeG142 any thingG5100 out ofG1537 hisG846 houseG3614:
NeitherG3361 let him which is inG1722 the fieldG68 returnG1994 backG3694 to takeG142 hisG846 clothesG2440.
AndG1161 woeG3759 unto them that areG2192 withG1722 childG1064, andG2532 to them that give suckG2337 inG1722 thoseG1565 daysG2250!
ButG1161 pray yeG4336 thatG3363 yourG5216 flightG5437 beG1096 notG3363 in the winterG5494, neitherG3366 onG1722 the sabbath dayG4521:
ForG1063 thenG5119 shall beG2071 greatG3173 tribulationG2347, such asG3634 wasG1096 notG3756 sinceG575 the beginningG746 of the worldG2889 to thisG2193 timeG3568, noG3761, nor everG3364 shall beG1096.
AndG2532 exceptG1508 thoseG1565 daysG2250 should be shortenedG2856, thereG3756 shouldG302 noG3956 fleshG4561 be savedG4982: butG1161 forG1223 the elect's sakeG1588 thoseG1565 daysG2250 shall be shortenedG2856.
ThenG5119 ifG1437 any manG5100 shall sayG2036 unto youG5213, LoG2400, hereG5602 is ChristG5547, orG2228 thereG5602; believeG4100 it notG3361.
ForG1063 there shall ariseG1453 false ChristsG5580, andG2532 false prophetsG5578, andG2532 shall shewG1325 greatG3173 signsG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059; insomuch thatG5620, ifG1487 it were possibleG1415, they shall deceiveG4105 the veryG2532 electG1588.
BeholdG2400, I have toldG4280 youG5213 beforeG4280.
WhereforeG3767 ifG1437 they shall sayG2036 unto youG5213, BeholdG2400, he isG2076 inG1722 the desertG2048; goG1831 notG3361 forthG1831: beholdG2400, he is inG1722 the secret chambersG5009; believeG4100 it notG3361.
ForG1063 asG5618 the lightningG796 comethG1831 out ofG575 the eastG395, andG2532 shinethG5316 even untoG2193 the westG1424; soG3779 shallG2071 alsoG2532 the comingG3952 of the SonG5207 of manG444 beG2071.
ForG1063 wheresoeverG1437+G3699 the carcaseG4430 isG5600, thereG1563 willG4863 the eaglesG105 be gathered togetherG4863.
ImmediatelyG1161+G2112 afterG3326 the tribulationG2347 of thoseG1565 daysG2250 shall the sunG2246 be darkenedG4654, andG2532 the moonG4582 shallG1325 notG3756 giveG1325 herG846 lightG5338, andG2532 the starsG792 shall fallG4098 fromG575 heavenG3772, andG2532 the powersG1411 of the heavensG3772 shall be shakenG4531:
AndG2532 thenG5119 shall appearG5316 the signG4592 of the SonG5207 of manG444 inG1722 heavenG3772: andG2532 thenG5119 shallG2875 allG3956 the tribesG5443 of the earthG1093 mournG2875, andG2532 they shall seeG3700 the SonG5207 of manG444 comingG2064 inG1909 the cloudsG3507 of heavenG3772 withG3326 powerG1411 andG2532 greatG4183 gloryG1391.
AndG2532 he shall sendG649 hisG846 angelsG32 withG3326 a greatG3173 soundG5456 of a trumpetG4536, andG2532 they shall gather togetherG1996 hisG846 electG1588 fromG1537 the fourG5064 windsG417, fromG575 one endG206 of heavenG3772 toG2193 the otherG206+G846. {with…: or, with a trumpet, and a great voice}
NowG1161 learnG3129 a parableG3850 ofG575 the fig treeG4808; WhenG3752 hisG846 branchG2798 isG1096 yetG2235 tenderG527, andG2532 putteth forthG1631 leavesG5444, ye knowG1097 thatG3754 summerG2330 is nighG1451:
SoG3779 likewiseG2532 yeG5210, whenG3752 ye shall seeG1492 allG3956 these thingsG5023, knowG1097 thatG3754 it isG2076 nearG1451, even atG1909 the doorsG2374. {it: or, he}
VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThisG3778 generationG1074 shall notG3364 passG3928, tillG302+G2193 allG3956 these thingsG5023 be fulfilledG1096.
HeavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1093 shall pass awayG3928, butG1161 myG3450 wordsG3056 shallG3928 notG3364 pass awayG3928.
ButG1161 ofG4012 thatG1565 dayG2250 andG2532 hourG5610 knowethG1492 noG3762 man, no, notG3761 the angelsG32 of heavenG3772, butG1508 myG3450 FatherG3962 onlyG3441.
ButG1161 asG5618 the daysG2250 of NoeG3575 were, soG3779 shallG2071 alsoG2532 the comingG3952 of the SonG5207 of manG444 beG2071.
ForG1063 asG5618 inG1722 the daysG2250 that wereG2258 beforeG4253 the floodG2627 they were eatingG5176 andG2532 drinkingG4095, marryingG1060 andG2532 giving in marriageG1547, untilG891 the dayG2250 thatG3739 NoeG3575 enteredG1525 intoG1519 the arkG2787,
AndG2532 knewG1097 notG3756 untilG2193 the floodG2627 cameG2064, andG2532 tookG142 them allG537 awayG142; soG3779 shallG2071 alsoG2532 the comingG3952 of the SonG5207 of manG444 beG2071.
ThenG5119 shallG2071 twoG1417 beG2071 inG1722 the fieldG68; the oneG1520 shall be takenG3880, andG2532 the otherG1520 leftG863.
TwoG1417 women shall be grindingG229 atG1722 the millG3459; the oneG3391 shall be takenG3880, andG2532 the otherG3391 leftG863.
WatchG1127 thereforeG3767: forG3754 ye knowG1492 notG3756 whatG4169 hourG5610 yourG5216 LordG2962 doth comeG2064.
ButG1161 knowG1097 thisG1565, thatG3754 ifG1487 the goodman of the houseG3617 had knownG1492 in whatG4169 watchG5438 the thiefG2812 would comeG2064, he wouldG302 have watchedG1127, andG2532 wouldG302 notG3756 have sufferedG1439 hisG846 houseG3614 to be broken upG1358.
ThereforeG1223+G5124 beG1096 yeG5210 alsoG2532 readyG2092: forG3754 in suchG3739 an hourG5610 as ye thinkG1380 notG3756 the SonG5207 of manG444 comethG2064.
WhoG5101 thenG686 isG2076 a faithfulG4103 andG2532 wiseG5429 servantG1401, whomG3739 hisG846 lordG2962 hath made rulerG2525 overG1909 hisG846 householdG2322, to giveG1325 themG846 meatG5160 inG1722 due seasonG2540?
BlessedG3107 is thatG1565 servantG1401, whomG3739 hisG846 lordG2962 when he comethG2064 shall findG2147 soG3779 doingG4160.
VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 he shall makeG2525 himG846 rulerG2525 overG1909 allG3956 hisG846 goodsG5224.
But andG1161 ifG1437 thatG1565 evilG2556 servantG1401 shall sayG2036 inG1722 hisG846 heartG2588, MyG3450 lordG2962 delayethG5549 his comingG2064;
AndG2532 shall beginG756 to smiteG5180 his fellowservantsG4889, andG1161 to eatG2068 andG2532 drinkG4095 withG3326 the drunkenG3184;
The lordG2962 of thatG1565 servantG1401 shall comeG2240 inG1722 a dayG2250 whenG3739 he lookethG4328 notG3756 for him, andG2532 inG1722 an hourG5610 thatG3739 he isG1097 notG3756 aware ofG1097,
AndG2532 shall cutG1371 himG846 asunderG1371, andG2532 appointG5087 him hisG846 portionG3313 withG3326 the hypocritesG5273: thereG1563 shall beG2071 weepingG2805 andG2532 gnashingG1030 of teethG3599. {cut…: or, cut him off}
And I will bringH935 the third partH7992 through the fireH784, and will refineH6884 them as silverH3701 is refinedH6884, and will tryH974 them as goldH2091 is triedH974: they shall callH7121 on my nameH8034, and I will hearH6030 them: I will sayH559, It is my peopleH5971: and they shall sayH559, The LORDH3068 is my GodH430.
Yet, behold, therein shall be leftH3498 a remnantH6413 that shall be brought forthH3318, both sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323: behold, they shall come forthH3318 unto you, and ye shall seeH7200 their wayH1870 and their doingsH5949: and ye shall be comfortedH5162 concerning the evilH7451 that I have broughtH935 upon JerusalemH3389, even concerning all that I have broughtH935 upon it.
And they shall comfortH5162 you, when ye seeH7200 their waysH1870 and their doingsH5949: and ye shall knowH3045 that I have not doneH6213 without causeH2600 all that I have doneH6213 in it, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
A Psalm of DavidH1732, when he changedH8138 his behaviourH2940 beforeH6440 AbimelechH40; who drove him awayH1644, and he departedH3212. I will blessH1288 the LORDH3068 at all timesH6256: his praiseH8416 shall continuallyH8548 be in my mouthH6310. {Abimelech: or, Achish}
My soulH5315 shall make her boastH1984 in the LORDH3068: the humbleH6035 shall hearH8085 thereof, and be gladH8055.
O magnifyH1431 the LORDH3068 with me, and let us exaltH7311 his nameH8034 togetherH3162.
I soughtH1875 the LORDH3068, and he heardH6030 me, and deliveredH5337 me from all my fearsH4035.
They lookedH5027 unto him, and were lightenedH5102: and their facesH6440 were not ashamedH2659. {were lightened: or, they flowed unto him}
This poor manH6041 criedH7121, and the LORDH3068 heardH8085 him, and savedH3467 him out of all his troublesH6869.
The angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 encampethH2583 round aboutH5439 them that fearH3373 him, and deliverethH2502 them.
O tasteH2938 and seeH7200 that the LORDH3068 is goodH2896: blessedH835 is the manH1397 that trustethH2620 in him.
O fearH3372 the LORDH3068, ye his saintsH6918: for there is no wantH4270 to them that fearH3373 him.
The young lionsH3715 do lackH7326, and suffer hungerH7456: but they that seekH1875 the LORDH3068 shall not wantH2637 any goodH2896 thing.
ComeH3212, ye childrenH1121, hearkenH8085 unto me: I will teachH3925 you the fearH3374 of the LORDH3068.
What manH376 is he that desirethH2655 lifeH2416, and lovethH157 many daysH3117, that he may seeH7200 goodH2896?
KeepH5341 thy tongueH3956 from evilH7451, and thy lipsH8193 from speakingH1696 guileH4820.
DepartH5493 from evilH7451, and doH6213 goodH2896; seekH1245 peaceH7965, and pursueH7291 it.
The eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068 are upon the righteousH6662, and his earsH241 are open unto their cryH7775.
The faceH6440 of the LORDH3068 is against them that doH6213 evilH7451, to cut offH3772 the remembranceH2143 of them from the earthH776.
The righteous cryH6817, and the LORDH3068 hearethH8085, and deliverethH5337 them out of all their troublesH6869.
The LORDH3068 is nighH7138 unto them that are of a brokenH7665 heartH3820; and savethH3467 such as be of a contriteH1793 spiritH7307. {unto…: Heb. to the broken of heart} {of a contrite…: Heb. contrite of spirit}
ManyH7227 are the afflictionsH7451 of the righteousH6662: but the LORDH3068 deliverethH5337 him out of them all.
He keepethH8104 all his bonesH6106: not oneH259 of themH2007 is brokenH7665.
EvilH7451 shall slayH4191 the wickedH7563: and they that hateH8130 the righteousH6662 shall be desolateH816. {desolate: or, guilty}
The LORDH3068 redeemethH6299 the soulH5315 of his servantsH5650: and none of them that trustH2620 in him shall be desolateH816. {desolate: or, guilty}
For I will rise upH6965 against them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, and cut offH3772 from BabylonH894 the nameH8034, and remnantH7605, and sonH5209, and nephewH5220, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Surely he shall not be movedH4131 for everH5769: the righteousH6662 shall be in everlastingH5769 remembranceH2143.
Then they that fearedH3373 the LORDH3068 spake oftenH1696 oneH376 to anotherH7453: and the LORDH3068 hearkenedH7181, and heardH8085 it, and a bookH5612 of remembranceH2146 was writtenH3789 beforeH6440 him for them that fearedH3373 the LORDH3068, and that thoughtH2803 upon his nameH8034.
And they shall be mine, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, in that dayH3117 when I make upH6213 my jewelsH5459; and I will spareH2550 them, as a manH376 sparethH2550 his own sonH1121 that servethH5647 him. {jewels: or, special treasure}
Then shall ye returnH7725, and discernH7200 between the righteousH6662 and the wickedH7563, between him that servethH5647 GodH430 and him that servethH5647 him not.
AndG2532 I intreatG2065 theeG4571 alsoG2532, trueG1103 yokefellowG4805, helpG4815 those womenG846 whichG3748 labouredG4866 with meG3427 inG1722 the gospelG2098, withG3326 ClementG2815 alsoG2532, andG2532 with otherG3062 myG3450 fellowlabourersG4904, whoseG3739 namesG3686 are inG1722 the bookG976 of lifeG2222.
The memoryH2143 of the justH6662 is blessedH1293: but the nameH8034 of the wickedH7563 shall rotH7537.
