King James Version 1611 with Strong's numbers
Versliste
RejoicingG5463 in hopeG1680; patientG5278 in tribulationG2347; continuing instantG4342 in prayerG4335;
DistributingG2841 to the necessityG5532 of saintsG40; givenG1377 to hospitalityG5381.
BlessG2127 them which persecuteG1377 youG5209: blessG2127, andG2532 curseG2672 notG3361.
NowG1161 the worksG2041 of the fleshG4561 areG2076 manifestG5318, whichG3748 areG2076 these; AdulteryG3430, fornicationG4202, uncleannessG167, lasciviousnessG766,
YeG5210 areG2075 ofG1537 your fatherG3962 the devilG1228, andG2532 the lustsG1939 of yourG5216 fatherG3962 ye willG2309 doG4160. HeG1565 wasG2258 a murdererG443 fromG575 the beginningG746, andG2532 abodeG2476 notG3756 inG1722 the truthG225, becauseG3754 there isG2076 noG3756 truthG225 inG1722 himG846. WhenG3752 he speakethG2980 a lieG5579, he speakethG2980 ofG1537 his ownG2398: forG3754 he isG2076 a liarG5583, andG2532 the fatherG3962 of itG846. {of his own: or, from his own will or disposition}
WhoG3739 hath deliveredG4506 usG2248 fromG1537 the powerG1849 of darknessG4655, andG2532 hath translatedG3179 us intoG1519 the kingdomG932 of hisG846 dearG26 SonG5207: {his…: Gr. the Son of his love}
ForG3754 weG2254 wrestleG3823 notG3756 againstG2076+G4314 fleshG4561 andG2532 bloodG129, butG235 againstG4314 principalitiesG746, againstG4314 powersG1849, againstG4314 the rulersG2888 of the darknessG4655 of thisG5127 worldG165, againstG4314 spiritualG4152 wickednessG4189 inG1722 highG2032 places. {flesh…: Gr. blood and flesh} {spiritual…: or, wicked spirits} {high: or, heavenly}
BeG1096 yeG3402 thereforeG3767 followersG3402 of GodG2316, asG5613 dearG27 childrenG5043;
AndG2532 walkG4043 inG1722 loveG26, asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 hath lovedG25 usG2248, andG2532 hath givenG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 usG2257 an offeringG4376 andG2532 a sacrificeG2378 to GodG2316 forG1519 a sweetsmellingG2175 savourG3744.
ButG2532 fornicationG4202, andG1161 allG3956 uncleannessG167, orG2228 covetousnessG4124, let itG3687 not be onceG3366 namedG3687 amongG1722 youG5213, asG2531 becomethG4241 saintsG40;
NeitherG2532 filthinessG151, norG2532 foolish talkingG3473, norG2228 jestingG2160, whichG3588 areG433 notG3756 convenientG433: butG235 ratherG3123 giving of thanksG2169.
ForG1063 thisG5124 ye knowG2075+G1097, thatG3754 noG3756+G3956 whoremongerG4205, norG2228 unclean personG169, norG2228 covetous manG4123, whoG3739 isG2076 an idolaterG1496, hathG2192 any inheritanceG2817 inG1722 the kingdomG932 of ChristG5547 andG2532 of GodG2316.
LetG538 no manG3367 deceiveG538 youG5209 with vainG2756 wordsG3056: forG1063 becauseG1223 of these thingsG5023 comethG2064 the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 uponG1909 the childrenG5207 of disobedienceG543. {disobedience: or, unbelief}
BeG1096 notG3361 yeG1096 thereforeG3767 partakersG4830 with themG846.
ForG1063 ye wereG2258 sometimesG4218 darknessG4655, butG1161 nowG3568 are ye lightG5457 inG1722 the LordG2962: walkG4043 asG5613 childrenG5043 of lightG5457:
(ForG1063 the fruitG2590 of the SpiritG4151 is inG1722 allG3956 goodnessG19 andG2532 righteousnessG1343 andG2532 truthG225;)
ProvingG1381 whatG5101 isG2076 acceptableG2101 unto the LordG2962.
AndG2532 haveG4790 noG3361 fellowshipG4790 with the unfruitfulG175 worksG2041 of darknessG4655, butG1161 ratherG3123+G2532 reproveG1651 them.
ForG1063 it isG2076 a shameG149 evenG2532 to speakG3004 of those thingsG2931 which are doneG1096 ofG5259 themG846 in secretG2931.
ButG1161 all thingsG3956 that are reprovedG1651 are made manifestG5319 byG5259 the lightG5457: forG1063 whatsoeverG3956 doth make manifestG5319 isG2076 lightG5457. {reproved: or, discovered}
WhereforeG1352 he saithG3004, Awake thouG1453 that sleepestG2518, andG2532 ariseG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 ChristG5547 shall giveG2017 theeG4671 lightG2017. {he: or, it}
SeeG991 thenG3767 thatG4459 ye walkG4043 circumspectlyG199, notG3361 asG5613 foolsG781, butG235 asG5613 wiseG4680,
RedeemingG1805 the timeG2540, becauseG3754 the daysG2250 areG1526 evilG4190.
WhereforeG1223+G5124 be yeG1096 notG3361 unwiseG878, butG235 understandingG4920 whatG5101 the willG2307 of the LordG2962 is.
AndG2532 beG3182 notG3361 drunkG3182 with wineG3631, whereinG1722+G3739 isG2076 excessG810; butG235 be filledG4137 withG1722 the SpiritG4151;
SpeakingG2980 to yourselvesG1438 in psalmsG5568 andG2532 hymnsG5215 andG2532 spiritualG4152 songsG5603, singingG103 andG2532 making melodyG5567 inG1722 yourG5216 heartG2588 to the LordG2962;
Giving thanksG2168 alwaysG3842 forG5228 all thingsG3956 unto GodG2316 andG2532 the FatherG3962 inG1722 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547;
Submitting yourselvesG5293 one to anotherG240 inG1722 the fearG5401 of GodG2316.
WivesG1135, submit yourselvesG5293 unto your ownG2398 husbandsG435, asG5613 unto the LordG2962.
ForG3754 the husbandG435 isG2076 the headG2776 of the wifeG1135, evenG2532 asG5613 ChristG5547 is the headG2776 of the churchG1577: andG2532 heG846 isG2076 the saviourG4990 of the bodyG4983.
ThereforeG235 asG5618 the churchG1577 is subjectG5293 unto ChristG5547, soG3779+G2532 let the wivesG1135 be to their ownG2398 husbandsG435 inG1722 every thingG3956.
HusbandsG435, loveG25 yourG1438 wivesG1135, even asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 lovedG25 the churchG1577, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 itG846;
ThatG2443 heG846 might sanctifyG37 and cleanse itG2511 with the washingG3067 of waterG5204 byG1722 the wordG4487,
ThatG2443 he might presentG3936 itG846 to himselfG1438 a gloriousG1741 churchG1577, notG3361 havingG2192 spotG4696, orG2228 wrinkleG4512, orG2228 anyG5100 such thingG5108; butG235 thatG2443 it should beG5600 holyG40 andG2532 without blemishG299.
SoG3779 oughtG3784 menG435 to loveG25 theirG1438 wivesG1135 asG5613 their ownG1438 bodiesG4983. He that lovethG25 hisG1438 wifeG1135 lovethG25 himselfG1438.
ForG1063 no manG3762 ever yetG4218 hatedG3404 his ownG1438 fleshG4561; butG235 nourishethG1625 andG2532 cherishethG2282 itG846, even asG2531+G2532 the LordG2962 the churchG1577:
ForG3754 we areG2070 membersG3196 of hisG846 bodyG4983, ofG1537 hisG846 fleshG4561, andG2532 ofG1537 hisG846 bonesG3747.
ForG473 this causeG5127 shallG2641 a manG444 leaveG2641 hisG846 fatherG3962 andG2532 motherG3384, andG2532 shall be joinedG4347 untoG4314 hisG846 wifeG1135, andG2532 they twoG1417 shall beG2071 oneG1519+G3391 fleshG4561.
ThisG5124 isG2076 a greatG3173 mysteryG3466: butG1161 IG1473 speakG3004 concerningG1519 ChristG5547 andG1519+G2532 the churchG1577.
NeverthelessG4133+G2532 letG25 every oneG1520+G1538 of youG5210 in particularG2596 soG3779 loveG25 hisG1438 wifeG1135 even asG5613 himselfG1438; andG1161 the wifeG1135 see thatG2443 she reverenceG5399 her husbandG435.
ForG1063 every oneG3956 that doethG4238 evilG5337 hatethG3404 the lightG5457, neitherG2532+G3756 comethG2064 toG4314 the lightG5457, lestG3363 hisG846 deedsG2041 should be reprovedG1651. {reproved: or, discovered}
(ForG1063 manyG4183 walkG4043, of whomG3739 I have toldG3004 youG5213 oftenG4178, andG1161 nowG3568 tellG3004 you evenG2532 weepingG2799, that they are the enemiesG2190 of the crossG4716 of ChristG5547:
God forbidG3361+G1096. HowG4459 shall we, thatG3748 are deadG599 to sinG266, liveG2198 any longerG2089 thereinG1722+G846?
FinallyG3063, myG3450 brethrenG80, be strongG1743 inG1722 the LordG2962, andG2532 inG1722 the powerG2904 of hisG846 mightG2479.
Put onG1746 the whole armourG3833 of GodG2316, thatG4314 yeG5209 may be ableG1410 to standG2476 againstG4314 the wilesG3180 of the devilG1228.
ForG3754 weG2254 wrestleG3823 notG3756 againstG2076+G4314 fleshG4561 andG2532 bloodG129, butG235 againstG4314 principalitiesG746, againstG4314 powersG1849, againstG4314 the rulersG2888 of the darknessG4655 of thisG5127 worldG165, againstG4314 spiritualG4152 wickednessG4189 inG1722 highG2032 places. {flesh…: Gr. blood and flesh} {spiritual…: or, wicked spirits} {high: or, heavenly}
WhereforeG1223+G5124 take unto youG353 the whole armourG3833 of GodG2316, thatG2443 ye may be ableG1410 to withstandG436 inG1722 the evilG4190 dayG2250, andG2532 having doneG2716 allG537, to standG2476. {having…: or, having overcome all}
StandG2476 thereforeG3767, havingG4024 yourG5216 loinsG3751 girt aboutG4024 withG1722 truthG225, andG2532 having onG1746 the breastplateG2382 of righteousnessG1343;
AndG2532 your feetG4228 shodG5265 withG1722 the preparationG2091 of the gospelG2098 of peaceG1515;
AboveG1909 allG3956, takingG353 the shieldG2375 of faithG4102, wherewithG1722+G3739 ye shall be ableG1410 to quenchG4570 allG3956 the fieryG4448 dartsG956 of the wickedG4190.
AndG2532 takeG1209 the helmetG4030 of salvationG4992, andG2532 the swordG3162 of the SpiritG4151, which isG3603 the wordG4487 of GodG2316:
PrayingG4336 alwaysG1722+G2540+G3956 withG1223 allG3956 prayerG4335 andG2532 supplicationG1162 inG1722 the SpiritG4151, andG2532 watchingG69 thereuntoG1519+G5124+G846 withG1722 allG3956 perseveranceG4343 andG2532 supplicationG1162 forG4012 allG3956 saintsG40;
AndG2532 forG5228 meG1700, thatG2443 utteranceG3056 may be givenG1325 unto meG3427, that I may openG1722+G457 myG3450 mouthG4750 boldlyG1722+G3954, to make knownG1107 the mysteryG3466 of the gospelG2098,
ForG5228 whichG3739 I am an ambassadorG4243 inG1722 bondsG254: thatG2443 thereinG1722+G846 I may speak boldlyG3955, asG5613 IG3165 oughtG1163 to speakG2980. {in bonds: or, in a chain} {therein: or, thereof}
ChildrenG5043, obeyG5219 yourG5216 parentsG1118 inG1722 the LordG2962: forG1063 thisG5124 isG2076 rightG1342.
HonourG5091 thyG4675 fatherG3962 andG2532 motherG3384; (whichG3748 isG2076 the firstG4413 commandmentG1785 withG1722 promiseG1860;)
ThatG2443 it may beG1096 wellG2095 with theeG4671, andG2532 thou mayestG2071 live longG3118 onG1909 the earthG1093.
AndG2532, ye fathersG3962, provokeG3949 notG3361 yourG5216 childrenG5043 to wrathG3949: butG235 bringG1625 themG846 upG1625 inG1722 the nurtureG3809 andG2532 admonitionG3559 of the LordG2962.
ServantsG1401, be obedientG5219 to them that are your mastersG2962 according toG2596 the fleshG4561, withG3326 fearG5401 andG2532 tremblingG5156, inG1722 singlenessG572 of yourG5216 heartG2588, asG5613 unto ChristG5547;
NotG3361 withG2596 eyeserviceG3787, asG5613 menpleasersG441; butG235 asG5613 the servantsG1401 of ChristG5547, doingG4160 the willG2307 of GodG2316 fromG1537 the heartG5590;
WithG3326 good willG2133 doing serviceG1398, as to the LordG2962, andG2532 notG3756 to menG444:
KnowingG1492 thatG3754 whatsoeverG3739+G1437+G5100 good thingG18 any manG1538 doethG4160, the sameG5124 shall he receiveG2865 ofG3844 the LordG2962, whetherG1535 he be bondG1401 orG1535 freeG1658.
AndG2532, ye mastersG2962, doG4160 the same thingsG846 untoG4314 themG846, forbearingG447 threateningG547: knowingG1492 thatG3754 yourG5216+G846 MasterG2962 alsoG2532 isG2076 inG1722 heavenG3772; neitherG2532+G3756 is thereG2076 respect of personsG4382 withG3844 himG846. {forbearing: or, moderating} {your…: some read, both your and their Master}
FinallyG3063, myG3450 brethrenG80, be strongG1743 inG1722 the LordG2962, andG2532 inG1722 the powerG2904 of hisG846 mightG2479.
Put onG1746 the whole armourG3833 of GodG2316, thatG4314 yeG5209 may be ableG1410 to standG2476 againstG4314 the wilesG3180 of the devilG1228.
ForG3754 weG2254 wrestleG3823 notG3756 againstG2076+G4314 fleshG4561 andG2532 bloodG129, butG235 againstG4314 principalitiesG746, againstG4314 powersG1849, againstG4314 the rulersG2888 of the darknessG4655 of thisG5127 worldG165, againstG4314 spiritualG4152 wickednessG4189 inG1722 highG2032 places. {flesh…: Gr. blood and flesh} {spiritual…: or, wicked spirits} {high: or, heavenly}
WhereforeG1223+G5124 take unto youG353 the whole armourG3833 of GodG2316, thatG2443 ye may be ableG1410 to withstandG436 inG1722 the evilG4190 dayG2250, andG2532 having doneG2716 allG537, to standG2476. {having…: or, having overcome all}

AndG2532 forG5228 meG1700, thatG2443 utteranceG3056 may be givenG1325 unto meG3427, that I may openG1722+G457 myG3450 mouthG4750 boldlyG1722+G3954, to make knownG1107 the mysteryG3466 of the gospelG2098,
ForG5228 whichG3739 I am an ambassadorG4243 inG1722 bondsG254: thatG2443 thereinG1722+G846 I may speak boldlyG3955, asG5613 IG3165 oughtG1163 to speakG2980. {in bonds: or, in a chain} {therein: or, thereof}
ButG1161 thatG2443 yeG5210 alsoG2532 may knowG1492 myG1691 affairsG2596, and howG5101 I doG4238, TychicusG5190, a belovedG27 brotherG80 andG2532 faithfulG4103 ministerG1249 inG1722 the LordG2962, shall make knownG1107 to youG5213 all thingsG3956:
WhomG3739 I have sentG3992 untoG4314 youG5209 forG1519 the sameG846 purposeG5124, thatG2443 ye might knowG1097 ourG2257 affairsG4012, andG2532 that he might comfortG3870 yourG5216 heartsG2588.
PeaceG1515 be to the brethrenG80, andG2532 loveG26 withG3326 faithG4102, fromG575 GodG2316 the FatherG3962 andG2532 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
GraceG5485 be withG3326 allG3956 them that loveG25 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 inG1722 sincerityG861. AmenG281. {in sincerity: or, with incorruption} {To the Ephesians written from Rome, by Tychicus.}
SamuelH8050 also saidH559 unto SaulH7586, The LORDH3068 sentH7971 me to anointH4886 thee to be kingH4428 over his peopleH5971, over IsraelH3478: now therefore hearkenH8085 thou unto the voiceH6963 of the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, I rememberH6485 that which AmalekH6002 didH6213 to IsraelH3478, how he laidH7760 wait for him in the wayH1870, when he came upH5927 from EgyptH4714.
Now goH3212 and smiteH5221 AmalekH6002, and utterly destroyH2763 all that they have, and spareH2550 them not; but slayH4191 both manH376 and womanH802, infantH5768 and sucklingH3243, oxH7794 and sheepH7716, camelH1581 and assH2543.
And SaulH7586 gatheredH8085 the peopleH5971 togetherH8085, and numberedH6485 them in TelaimH2923, two hundredH3967 thousandH505 footmenH7273, and tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376 of JudahH3063.
And SaulH7586 cameH935 to a cityH5892 of AmalekH6002, and laid waitH7378+H693 in the valleyH5158. {laid…: or, fought}
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto the KenitesH7017, GoH3212, departH5493, get you downH3381 from amongH8432 the AmalekitesH6002, lest I destroyH622 you with them: for ye shewedH6213 kindnessH2617 to all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, when they came upH5927 out of EgyptH4714. So the KenitesH7017 departedH5493 from amongH8432 the AmalekitesH6003.
And SaulH7586 smoteH5221 the AmalekitesH6002 from HavilahH2341 until thou comestH935 to ShurH7793, that is over againstH6440 EgyptH4714.
And he tookH8610 AgagH90 the kingH4428 of the AmalekitesH6002 aliveH2416, and utterly destroyedH2763 all the peopleH5971 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719.
But SaulH7586 and the peopleH5971 sparedH2550 AgagH90, and the bestH4315 of the sheepH6629, and of the oxenH1241, and of the fatlingsH4932, and the lambsH3733, and all that was goodH2896, and wouldH14 not utterly destroyH2763 them: but every thingH4399 that was vileH5240 and refuseH4549, that they destroyed utterlyH2763. {fatlings: or, second sort}
Then came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 unto SamuelH8050, sayingH559,
It repentethH5162 me that I have set upH4427 SaulH7586 to be kingH4428: for he is turned backH7725 from followingH310 me, and hath not performedH6965 my commandmentsH1697. And it grievedH2734 SamuelH8050; and he criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068 all nightH3915.
And when SamuelH8050 rose earlyH7925 to meetH7125 SaulH7586 in the morningH1242, it was toldH5046 SamuelH8050, sayingH559, SaulH7586 cameH935 to CarmelH3760, and, behold, he set him upH5324 a placeH3027, and is gone aboutH5437, and passed onH5674, and gone downH3381 to GilgalH1537.
And SamuelH8050 cameH935 to SaulH7586: and SaulH7586 saidH559 unto him, BlessedH1288 be thou of the LORDH3068: I have performedH6965 the commandmentH1697 of the LORDH3068.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, What meaneth then this bleatingH6963 of the sheepH6629 in mine earsH241, and the lowingH6963 of the oxenH1241 which I hearH8085?
And SaulH7586 saidH559, They have broughtH935 them from the AmalekitesH6003: for the peopleH5971 sparedH2550 the bestH4315 of the sheepH6629 and of the oxenH1241, to sacrificeH2076 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430; and the restH3498 we have utterly destroyedH2763.
Then SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, StayH7503, and I will tellH5046 thee what the LORDH3068 hath saidH1696 to me this nightH3915. And he saidH559 unto him, Say onH1696.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, When thou wast littleH6996 in thine own sightH5869, wast thou not made the headH7218 of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, and the LORDH3068 anointedH4886 thee kingH4428 over IsraelH3478?
And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 thee on a journeyH1870, and saidH559, GoH3212 and utterly destroyH2763 the sinnersH2400 the AmalekitesH6002, and fightH3898 against them until they be consumedH3615. {they…: Heb. they consume them}
Wherefore then didst thou not obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068, but didst flyH5860 upon the spoilH7998, and didstH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068?
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto SamuelH8050, Yea, I have obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068, and have goneH3212 the wayH1870 which the LORDH3068 sentH7971 me, and have broughtH935 AgagH90 the kingH4428 of AmalekH6002, and have utterly destroyedH2763 the AmalekitesH6002.
But the peopleH5971 tookH3947 of the spoilH7998, sheepH6629 and oxenH1241, the chiefH7225 of the things which should have been utterly destroyedH2764, to sacrificeH2076 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 in GilgalH1537.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, Hath the LORDH3068 as great delightH2656 in burnt offeringsH5930 and sacrificesH2077, as in obeyingH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068? Behold, to obeyH8085 is betterH2896 than sacrificeH2077, and to hearkenH7181 than the fatH2459 of ramsH352.
For rebellionH4805 is as the sinH2403 of witchcraftH7081, and stubbornnessH6484 is as iniquityH205 and idolatryH8655. Because thou hast rejectedH3988 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, he hath also rejectedH3988 thee from being kingH4428. {witchcraft: Heb. divination}
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto SamuelH8050, I have sinnedH2398: for I have transgressedH5674 the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068, and thy wordsH1697: because I fearedH3372 the peopleH5971, and obeyedH8085 their voiceH6963.
Now therefore, I pray thee, pardonH5375 my sinH2403, and turn againH7725 with me, that I may worshipH7812 the LORDH3068.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, I will not returnH7725 with thee: for thou hast rejectedH3988 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and the LORDH3068 hath rejectedH3988 thee from being kingH4428 over IsraelH3478.
And as SamuelH8050 turned aboutH5437 to go awayH3212, he laid holdH2388 upon the skirtH3671 of his mantleH4598, and it rentH7167.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto him, The LORDH3068 hath rentH7167 the kingdomH4468 of IsraelH3478 from thee this dayH3117, and hath givenH5414 it to a neighbourH7453 of thine, that is betterH2896 than thou.
And also the StrengthH5331 of IsraelH3478 will not lieH8266 nor repentH5162: for he is not a manH120, that he should repentH5162. {Strength: or, Eternity, or, Victory}
Then he saidH559, I have sinnedH2398: yet honourH3513 me now, I pray thee, before the eldersH2205 of my peopleH5971, and before IsraelH3478, and turn againH7725 with me, that I may worshipH7812 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
So SamuelH8050 turned againH7725 afterH310 SaulH7586; and SaulH7586 worshippedH7812 the LORDH3068.
Then saidH559 SamuelH8050, Bring ye hitherH5066 to me AgagH90 the kingH4428 of the AmalekitesH6002. And AgagH90 cameH3212 unto him delicatelyH4574. And AgagH90 saidH559, SurelyH403 the bitternessH4751 of deathH4194 is pastH5493.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, As thy swordH2719 hath made womenH802 childlessH7921, so shall thy motherH517 be childlessH7921 among womenH802. And SamuelH8050 hewedH8158 AgagH90 in piecesH8158 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 in GilgalH1537.
Then SamuelH8050 wentH3212 to RamahH7414; and SaulH7586 went upH5927 to his houseH1004 to GibeahH1390 of SaulH7586.
And SamuelH8050 came no moreH3254 to seeH7200 SaulH7586 until the dayH3117 of his deathH4194: neverthelessH3588 SamuelH8050 mournedH56 for SaulH7586: and the LORDH3068 repentedH5162 that he had made SaulH7586 kingH4427 over IsraelH3478.
Then cameH935 all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to DavidH1732 unto HebronH2275, and spakeH559, sayingH559, Behold, we are thy boneH6106 and thy fleshH1320.
Also in time pastH865+H8032, when SaulH7586 was kingH4428 over us, thou wast he that leddest outH3318 and broughtest inH935 IsraelH3478: and the LORDH3068 saidH559 to thee, Thou shalt feedH7462 my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and thou shalt be a captainH5057 over IsraelH3478.
So all the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 cameH935 to the kingH4428 to HebronH2275; and kingH4428 DavidH1732 madeH3772 a leagueH1285 with them in HebronH2275 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: and they anointedH4886 DavidH1732 kingH4428 over IsraelH3478.
DavidH1732 was thirtyH7970 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 fortyH705 yearsH8141.
In HebronH2275 he reignedH4427 over JudahH3063 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 and sixH8337 monthsH2320: and in JerusalemH3389 he reignedH4427 thirtyH7970 and threeH7969 yearsH8141 over all IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063.
And the kingH4428 and his menH582 wentH3212 to JerusalemH3389 unto the JebusitesH2983, the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776: which spakeH559 unto DavidH1732, sayingH559, Except thou take awayH5493 the blindH5787 and the lameH6455, thou shalt not come inH935 hither: thinkingH559, DavidH1732 cannot come inH935 hither. {thinking…: or, saying David shall not, etc}
Nevertheless DavidH1732 tookH3920 the strong holdH4686 of ZionH6726: the same is the cityH5892 of DavidH1732.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 on that dayH3117, Whosoever getteth upH5060 to the gutterH6794, and smitethH5221 the JebusitesH2983, and the lameH6455 and the blindH5787, that are hatedH8130 of David'sH1732 soulH5315, he shall be chief and captain. Wherefore they saidH559, The blindH5787 and the lameH6455 shall not comeH935 into the houseH1004. {Wherefore…: or, Because they had said, even the blind and the lame, He shall not come into the house}
So DavidH1732 dweltH3427 in the fortH4686, and calledH7121 it the cityH5892 of DavidH1732. And DavidH1732 builtH1129 round aboutH5439 from MilloH4407 and inwardH1004.
And DavidH1732 wentH3212 onH1980, and grew greatH1419, and the LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635 was with him. {went…: Heb. went, going and growing}
And HiramH2438 kingH4428 of TyreH6865 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to DavidH1732, and cedarH730 treesH6086, and carpentersH2796, and masonsH7023+H68: and they builtH1129 DavidH1732 an houseH1004. {masons: Heb. hewers of the stone of the wall}
And DavidH1732 perceivedH3045 that the LORDH3068 had establishedH3559 him kingH4428 over IsraelH3478, and that he had exaltedH5375 his kingdomH4467 for his peopleH5971 Israel'sH3478 sake.
And DavidH1732 tookH3947 him more concubinesH6370 and wivesH802 out of JerusalemH3389, afterH310 he was comeH935 from HebronH2275: and there were yet sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323 bornH3205 to DavidH1732.
And these be the namesH8034 of those that were bornH3209 unto him in JerusalemH3389; ShammuaH8051, and ShobabH7727, and NathanH5416, and SolomonH8010,
IbharH2984 also, and ElishuaH474, and NephegH5298, and JaphiaH3309,
And ElishamaH476, and EliadaH450, and EliphaletH467.
But when the PhilistinesH6430 heardH8085 that they had anointedH4886 DavidH1732 kingH4428 over IsraelH3478, all the PhilistinesH6430 came upH5927 to seekH1245 DavidH1732; and DavidH1732 heardH8085 of it, and went downH3381 to the holdH4686.
The PhilistinesH6430 also cameH935 and spreadH5203 themselves in the valleyH6010 of RephaimH7497.
And DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 of the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Shall I go upH5927 to the PhilistinesH6430? wilt thou deliverH5414 them into mine handH3027? And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, Go upH5927: for I will doubtlessH5414 deliverH5414 the PhilistinesH6430 into thine handH3027.
And DavidH1732 cameH935 to BaalperazimH1188, and DavidH1732 smoteH5221 them there, and saidH559, The LORDH3068 hath broken forthH6555 upon mine enemiesH341 beforeH6440 me, as the breachH6556 of watersH4325. Therefore he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 BaalperazimH1188. {Baalperazim: that is, the plain of breaches}
And there they leftH5800 their imagesH6091, and DavidH1732 and his menH582 burnedH5375 them. {burned…: or, took them away}
And the PhilistinesH6430 came upH5927 yet againH3254, and spreadH5203 themselves in the valleyH6010 of RephaimH7497.
And when DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 of the LORDH3068, he saidH559, Thou shalt not go upH5927; but fetch a compassH5437 behindH310 them, and comeH935 upon them over againstH4136 the mulberry treesH1057.
And let it be, when thou hearestH8085 the soundH6963 of a goingH6807 in the topsH7218 of the mulberry treesH1057, that then thou shalt bestirH2782 thyself: for then shall the LORDH3068 go outH3318 beforeH6440 thee, to smiteH5221 the hostH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430.
And DavidH1732 did soH6213, as the LORDH3068 had commandedH6680 him; and smoteH5221 the PhilistinesH6430 from GebaH1387 until thou comeH935 to GazerH1507.
Again, DavidH1732 gathered togetherH622+H3254 all the chosenH977 men of IsraelH3478, thirtyH7970 thousandH505.
And DavidH1732 aroseH6965, and wentH3212 with all the peopleH5971 that were with him from Baale of JudahH1184, to bring upH5927 from thence the arkH727 of GodH430, whose nameH8034 is calledH7121 by the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 that dwellethH3427 between the cherubimsH3742. {Baale: or, Baalah, that is, Kirjathjearim} {whose name…: or, at which the name, even the name of the LORD of hosts, was called upon}
And they setH7392 the arkH727 of GodH430 upon a newH2319 cartH5699, and broughtH5375 it out of the houseH1004 of AbinadabH41 that was in GibeahH1390: and UzzahH5798 and AhioH283, the sonsH1121 of AbinadabH41, draveH5090 the newH2319 cartH5699. {set: Heb. made to ride} {Gibeah: or, the hill}
And they broughtH5375 it out of the houseH1004 of AbinadabH41 which was at GibeahH1390, accompanyingH5973 the arkH727 of GodH430: and AhioH283 wentH1980 beforeH6440 the arkH727. {accompanying: Heb. with}
And DavidH1732 and all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 playedH7832 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 on all manner of instruments made of firH1265 woodH6086, even on harpsH3658, and on psalteriesH5035, and on timbrelsH8596, and on cornetsH4517, and on cymbalsH6767.
And when they cameH935 to Nachon'sH5225 threshingfloorH1637, UzzahH5798 put forthH7971 his hand to the arkH727 of GodH430, and took holdH270 of it; for the oxenH1241 shookH8058 it. {shook it: or, stumbled}
And the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was kindledH2734 against UzzahH5798; and GodH430 smoteH5221 him there for his errorH7944; and there he diedH4191 by the arkH727 of GodH430. {error: or, rashness}
And DavidH1732 was displeasedH2734, because the LORDH3068 had madeH6555 a breachH6556 upon UzzahH5798: and he calledH7121 the name of the placeH4725 PerezuzzahH6560 to this dayH3117. {made: Heb. broken} {Perezuzzah: that is, the breach of Uzzah}
And DavidH1732 was afraidH3372 of the LORDH3068 that dayH3117, and saidH559, How shall the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 comeH935 to me?
So DavidH1732 wouldH14 not removeH5493 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 unto him into the cityH5892 of DavidH1732: but DavidH1732 carried it asideH5186 into the houseH1004 of ObededomH5654 the GittiteH1663.
And the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 continuedH3427 in the houseH1004 of ObededomH5654 the GittiteH1663 threeH7969 monthsH2320: and the LORDH3068 blessedH1288 ObededomH5654, and all his householdH1004.
And it was toldH5046 kingH4428 DavidH1732, sayingH559, The LORDH3068 hath blessedH1288 the houseH1004 of ObededomH5654, and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the arkH727 of GodH430. So DavidH1732 wentH3212 and brought upH5927 the arkH727 of GodH430 from the houseH1004 of ObededomH5654 into the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 with gladnessH8057.
And it was so, that when they that bareH5375 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 had goneH6805 sixH8337 pacesH6806, he sacrificedH2076 oxenH7794 and fatlingsH4806.
And DavidH1732 dancedH3769 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 with all his mightH5797; and DavidH1732 was girdedH2296 with a linenH906 ephodH646.
So DavidH1732 and all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 brought upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 with shoutingH8643, and with the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782.
And as the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 cameH935 into the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, MichalH4324 Saul'sH7586 daughterH1323 lookedH8259 through a windowH2474, and sawH7200 kingH4428 DavidH1732 leapingH6339 and dancingH3769 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068; and she despisedH959 him in her heartH3820.
And they broughtH935 in the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and setH3322 it in his placeH4725, in the midstH8432 of the tabernacleH168 that DavidH1732 had pitchedH5186 for it: and DavidH1732 offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 and peace offeringsH8002 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068. {pitched: Heb. stretched}
And as soon as DavidH1732 had made an endH3615 of offeringH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 and peace offeringsH8002, he blessedH1288 the peopleH5971 in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
And he dealtH2505 among all the peopleH5971, even among the whole multitudeH1995 of IsraelH3478, as well to the womenH802 as menH376, to every oneH376 aH259 cakeH2471 of breadH3899, and a good pieceH829 of flesh, and a flagonH809 of wine. So all the peopleH5971 departedH3212 every oneH376 to his houseH1004.
Then DavidH1732 returnedH7725 to blessH1288 his householdH1004. And MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586 came outH3318 to meetH7125 DavidH1732, and saidH559, How gloriousH3513 was the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 to dayH3117, who uncoveredH1540 himself to dayH3117 in the eyesH5869 of the handmaidsH519 of his servantsH5650, as oneH259 of the vain fellowsH7386 shamelesslyH1540 uncoverethH1540 himself! {shamelessly: or, openly}
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto MichalH4324, It was beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, which choseH977 me before thy fatherH1, and before all his houseH1004, to appointH6680 me rulerH5057 over the peopleH5971 of the LORDH3068, over IsraelH3478: therefore will I playH7832 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
And I will yet be more vileH7043 than thusH2063, and will be baseH8217 in mine own sightH5869: and of the maidservantsH519 which thou hast spokenH559 of, of them shall I be had in honourH3513. {of the…: or, of the handmaids of my servants}
Therefore MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586 had no childH2056+H3206 unto the dayH3117 of her deathH4194.
And afterH310 this it came to pass, that DavidH1732 smoteH5221 the PhilistinesH6430, and subduedH3665 them: and DavidH1732 tookH3947 MethegammahH4965 out of the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430. {Methegammah: or, the bridle of Ammah}
And he smoteH5221 MoabH4124, and measuredH4058 them with a lineH2256, casting them downH7901 to the groundH776; even with twoH8147 linesH2256 measuredH4058 he to put to deathH4191, and with one fullH4393 lineH2256 to keep aliveH2421. And so the MoabitesH4124 became David'sH1732 servantsH5650, and broughtH5375 giftsH4503.
DavidH1732 smoteH5221 also HadadezerH1909, the sonH1121 of RehobH7340, kingH4428 of ZobahH6678, as he wentH3212 to recoverH7725 his borderH3027 at the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578. {Hadadezer: or, Hadarezer}
And DavidH1732 tookH3920 from him a thousandH505 chariots, and sevenH7651 hundredH3967 horsemenH6571, and twentyH6242 thousandH505 footmenH376+H7273: and DavidH1732 houghedH6131 all the chariotH7393 horses, but reservedH3498 of them for an hundredH3967 chariotsH7393. {from…: or, of his. chariots…: as 1.Chr.18.4}
And when the SyriansH758 of DamascusH1834 cameH935 to succourH5826 HadadezerH1909 kingH4428 of ZobahH6678, DavidH1732 slewH5221 of the SyriansH758 twoH8147 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 menH376.
Then DavidH1732 putH7760 garrisonsH5333 in SyriaH758 of DamascusH1834: and the SyriansH758 became servantsH5650 to DavidH1732, and broughtH5375 giftsH4503. And the LORDH3068 preservedH3467 DavidH1732 whithersoever he wentH1980.
And DavidH1732 tookH3947 the shieldsH7982 of goldH2091 that were on the servantsH5650 of HadadezerH1909, and broughtH935 them to JerusalemH3389.
And from BetahH984, and from BerothaiH1268, citiesH5892 of HadadezerH1909, kingH4428 DavidH1732 tookH3947 exceedingH3966 muchH7235 brassH5178.
When ToiH8583 kingH4428 of HamathH2574 heardH8085 that DavidH1732 had smittenH5221 all the hostH2428 of HadadezerH1909,
Then ToiH8583 sentH7971 JoramH3141 his sonH1121 unto kingH4428 DavidH1732, to saluteH7592+H7965 him, and to blessH1288 him, because he had foughtH3898 against HadadezerH1909, and smittenH5221 him: for HadadezerH1909 had warsH376+H4421 with ToiH8583. And Joram brought with himH3027 vesselsH3627 of silverH3701, and vesselsH3627 of goldH2091, and vesselsH3627 of brassH5178: {salute…: Heb. ask him of peace} {had wars…: Heb. was a man of wars with} {brought…: Heb. in his hand were}
Which also kingH4428 DavidH1732 did dedicateH6942 unto the LORDH3068, with the silverH3701 and goldH2091 that he had dedicatedH6942 of all nationsH1471 which he subduedH3533;
Of SyriaH758, and of MoabH4124, and of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and of the PhilistinesH6430, and of AmalekH6002, and of the spoilH7998 of HadadezerH1909, sonH1121 of RehobH7340, kingH4428 of ZobahH6678.
And DavidH1732 gatH6213 him a nameH8034 when he returnedH7725 from smitingH5221 of the SyriansH758 in the valleyH1516 of saltH4417, being eighteenH8083+H6240 thousandH505 men. {smiting: Heb. his smiting}
And he putH7760 garrisonsH5333 in EdomH123; throughout all EdomH123 putH7760 he garrisonsH5333, and all they of EdomH123 became David'sH1732 servantsH5650. And the LORDH3068 preservedH3467 DavidH1732 whithersoever he wentH1980.
And DavidH1732 reignedH4427 over all IsraelH3478; and DavidH1732 executedH6213 judgmentH4941 and justiceH6666 unto all his peopleH5971.
And JoabH3097 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870 was over the hostH6635; and JehoshaphatH3092 the sonH1121 of AhiludH286 was recorderH2142; {recorder: or, remembrancer, or, writer of chronicles}
And ZadokH6659 the sonH1121 of AhitubH285, and AhimelechH288 the sonH1121 of AbiatharH54, were the priestsH3548; and SeraiahH8304 was the scribeH5608; {scribe: or, secretary}
And BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077 was over both the CherethitesH3774 and the PelethitesH6432; and David'sH1732 sonsH1121 were chief rulersH3548. {chief rulers: or, princes}
Now afterH310 the deathH4194 of JoshuaH3091 it came to pass, that the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 askedH7592 the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Who shall go upH5927 for us against the CanaanitesH3669 firstH8462, to fightH3898 against them?
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, JudahH3063 shall go upH5927: behold, I have deliveredH5414 the landH776 into his handH3027.
And JudahH3063 saidH559 unto SimeonH8095 his brotherH251, Come upH5927 with me into my lotH1486, that we may fightH3898 against the CanaanitesH3669; and I likewise will goH1980 with thee into thy lotH1486. So SimeonH8095 wentH3212 with him.
And JudahH3063 went upH5927; and the LORDH3068 deliveredH5414 the CanaanitesH3669 and the PerizzitesH6522 into their handH3027: and they slewH5221 of them in BezekH966 tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376.
And they foundH4672 AdonibezekH137 in BezekH966: and they foughtH3898 against him, and they slewH5221 the CanaanitesH3669 and the PerizzitesH6522.
But AdonibezekH137 fledH5127; and they pursuedH7291 afterH310 him, and caughtH270 him, and cut offH7112 his thumbsH931+H3027 and his great toesH7272.
And AdonibezekH137 saidH559, Threescore and tenH7657 kingsH4428, having their thumbsH931+H3027 and their great toesH7272 cut offH7112, gatheredH3950 their meat under my tableH7979: as I have doneH6213, so GodH430 hath requitedH7999 me. And they broughtH935 him to JerusalemH3389, and there he diedH4191. {their thumbs…: Heb. the thumbs of their hands and of their feet} {gathered: or, gleaned}
Now the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 had foughtH3898 against JerusalemH3389, and had takenH3920 it, and smittenH5221 it with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719, and setH7971 the cityH5892 on fireH784.
And afterwardH310 the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 went downH3381 to fightH3898 against the CanaanitesH3669, that dweltH3427 in the mountainH2022, and in the southH5045, and in the valleyH8219. {valley: or, low country}
And JudahH3063 wentH3212 against the CanaanitesH3669 that dweltH3427 in HebronH2275: (now the nameH8034 of HebronH2275 beforeH6440 was KirjatharbaH7153:) and they slewH5221 SheshaiH8344, and AhimanH289, and TalmaiH8526.
And from thence he wentH3212 against the inhabitantsH3427 of DebirH1688: and the nameH8034 of DebirH1688 beforeH6440 was KirjathsepherH7158:
And CalebH3612 saidH559, He that smitethH5221 KirjathsepherH7158, and takethH3920 it, to him will I giveH5414 AchsahH5915 my daughterH1323 to wifeH802.
And OthnielH6274 the sonH1121 of KenazH7073, Caleb'sH3612 youngerH6996 brotherH251, tookH3920 it: and he gaveH5414 him AchsahH5915 his daughterH1323 to wifeH802.
And it came to pass, when she cameH935 to him, that she movedH5496 him to askH7592 of her fatherH1 a fieldH7704: and she lightedH6795 from off her assH2543; and CalebH3612 saidH559 unto her, What wilt thou?
And she saidH559 unto him, GiveH3051 me a blessingH1293: for thou hast givenH5414 me a southH5045 landH776; giveH5414 me also springsH1543 of waterH4325. And CalebH3612 gaveH5414 her the upperH5942 springsH1543 and the netherH8482 springsH1543.
And the childrenH1121 of the KeniteH7017, Moses'H4872 father in lawH2859, went upH5927 out of the cityH5892 of palm treesH8558+H5899 with the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 into the wildernessH4057 of JudahH3063, which lieth in the southH5045 of AradH6166; and they wentH3212 and dweltH3427 amongH854 the peopleH5971.
And JudahH3063 wentH3212 with SimeonH8095 his brotherH251, and they slewH5221 the CanaanitesH3669 that inhabitedH3427 ZephathH6857, and utterly destroyedH2763 it. And the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 was calledH7121 HormahH2767.
Also JudahH3063 tookH3920 GazaH5804 with the coastH1366 thereof, and AskelonH831 with the coastH1366 thereof, and EkronH6138 with the coastH1366 thereof.
And the LORDH3068 was with JudahH3063; and he drave outH3423 the inhabitants of the mountainH2022; but could notH3808 drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of the valleyH6010, because they had chariotsH7393 of ironH1270. {drave…: or, possessed the mountain}
And they gaveH5414 HebronH2275 unto CalebH3612, as MosesH4872 saidH1696: and he expelledH3423 thence the threeH7969 sonsH1121 of AnakH6061.
And the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 did not drive outH3423 the JebusitesH2983 that inhabitedH3427 JerusalemH3389; but the JebusitesH2983 dwellH3427 with the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 in JerusalemH3389 unto this dayH3117.
And the houseH1004 of JosephH3130, they also went upH5927 against BethelH1008: and the LORDH3068 was with them.
And the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 sent to descryH8446 BethelH1008. (Now the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 beforeH6440 was LuzH3870.)
And the spiesH8104 sawH7200 a manH376 come forthH3318 out of the cityH5892, and they saidH559 unto him, ShewH7200 us, we pray thee, the entranceH3996 into the cityH5892, and we will shewH6213 thee mercyH2617.
And when he shewedH7200 them the entranceH3996 into the cityH5892, they smoteH5221 the cityH5892 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719; but they let goH7971 the manH376 and all his familyH4940.
And the manH376 wentH3212 into the landH776 of the HittitesH2850, and builtH1129 a cityH5892, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 thereof LuzH3870: which is the nameH8034 thereof unto this dayH3117.
Neither did ManassehH4519 drive outH3423 the inhabitants of BethsheanH1052 and her townsH1323, nor TaanachH8590 and her townsH1323, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of DorH1756 and her townsH1323, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of IbleamH2991 and her townsH1323, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of MegiddoH4023 and her townsH1323: but the CanaanitesH3669 wouldH2974 dwellH3427 in that landH776.
And it came to pass, when IsraelH3478 was strongH2388, that they putH7760 the CanaanitesH3669 to tributeH4522, and did not utterlyH3423 drive them outH3423.
Neither did EphraimH669 drive outH3423 the CanaanitesH3669 that dweltH3427 in GezerH1507; but the CanaanitesH3669 dweltH3427 in GezerH1507 amongH7130 them.
Neither did ZebulunH2074 drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of KitronH7003, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of NahalolH5096; but the CanaanitesH3669 dweltH3427 amongH7130 them, and became tributariesH4522.
Neither did AsherH836 drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of AcchoH5910, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of ZidonH6721, nor of AhlabH303, nor of AchzibH392, nor of HelbahH2462, nor of AphikH663, nor of RehobH7340:
But the AsheritesH843 dweltH3427 amongH7130 the CanaanitesH3669, the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776: for they did not drive them outH3423.
Neither did NaphtaliH5321 drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of BethshemeshH1053, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of BethanathH1043; but he dweltH3427 amongH7130 the CanaanitesH3669, the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776: nevertheless the inhabitantsH3427 of BethshemeshH1053 and of BethanathH1043 became tributariesH4522 unto them.
And the AmoritesH567 forcedH3905 the childrenH1121 of DanH1835 into the mountainH2022: for they would not sufferH5414 them to come downH3381 to the valleyH6010:
But the AmoritesH567 wouldH2974 dwellH3427 in mountH2022 HeresH2776 in AijalonH357, and in ShaalbimH8169: yet the handH3027 of the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 prevailedH3513, so that they became tributariesH4522. {prevailed: Heb. was heavy}
And the coastH1366 of the AmoritesH567 was from the going upH4608 to AkrabbimH4610, from the rockH5553, and upwardH4605. {the going…: or, Maalehakrabbim}
FinallyG3063, myG3450 brethrenG80, be strongG1743 inG1722 the LordG2962, andG2532 inG1722 the powerG2904 of hisG846 mightG2479.
WhereforeG5620 letG991 him that thinkethG1380 he standethG2476 take heedG991 lestG3361 he fallG4098.
There hathG2983 noG3756 temptationG3986 takenG2983 youG5209 butG1508 such as is common to manG442: butG1161 GodG2316 is faithfulG4103, whoG3739 willG1439 notG3756 sufferG1439 youG5209 to be temptedG3985 aboveG5228 thatG3739 ye are ableG1410; butG235 willG4160 withG4862 the temptationG3986 alsoG2532 makeG4160 a way to escapeG1545, that yeG5209 may be ableG1410 to bearG5297 it. {common…: or, moderate}
ButG1161 ofG4012 the timesG5550 andG2532 the seasonsG2540, brethrenG80, ye haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532 that I writeG1125 unto youG5213.
ForG1063 yourselvesG846 knowG1492 perfectlyG199 thatG3754 the dayG2250 of the LordG2962 soG3779 comethG2064 asG5613 a thiefG2812 inG1722 the nightG3571.
ForG1063 whenG3752 they shall sayG3004, PeaceG1515 andG2532 safetyG803; thenG5119 suddenG160 destructionG3639 cometh uponG2186 themG846, asG5618 travailG5604 uponG1722 a woman with childG1064+G2192; andG2532 they shallG1628 notG3364 escapeG1628.
ButG1161 yeG5210, brethrenG80, areG2075 notG3756 inG1722 darknessG4655, thatG2443 that dayG2250 should overtakeG2638 youG5209 asG5613 a thiefG2812.
YeG5210 areG2075 allG3956 the childrenG5207 of lightG5457, andG2532 the childrenG5207 of the dayG2250: we areG2070 notG3756 of the nightG3571, norG3761 of darknessG4655.
ThereforeG686+G3767 let usG2518 notG3361 sleepG2518, asG5613+G2532 do othersG3062; butG235 let us watchG1127 andG2532 be soberG3525.
ForG1063 they that sleepG2518 sleepG2518 in the nightG3571; andG2532 they that be drunkenG3182 are drunkenG3184 in the nightG3571.
ButG1161 letG3525 usG2249, who areG5607 of the dayG2250, be soberG3525, putting onG1746 the breastplateG2382 of faithG4102 andG2532 loveG26; andG2532 for an helmetG4030, the hopeG1680 of salvationG4991.
ForG3754 GodG2316 hathG5087 notG3756 appointedG5087 usG2248 toG1519 wrathG3709, butG235 toG1519 obtainG4047 salvationG4991 byG1223 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547,
WhoG3588 diedG599 forG5228 usG2257, thatG2443, whetherG1535 we wakeG1127 orG1535 sleepG2518, we should liveG2198 togetherG260 withG4862 himG846.
WhereforeG1352 comfortG3870 yourselves togetherG240, andG2532 edifyG3618 oneG1520 anotherG1520, evenG2531 as alsoG2532 ye doG4160. {comfort: or, exhort}
AndG1161 we beseechG2065 youG5209, brethrenG80, to knowG1492 them whichG3588 labourG2872 amongG1722 youG5213, andG2532 are overG4291 youG5216 inG1722 the LordG2962, andG2532 admonishG3560 youG5209;
AndG2532 to esteemG2233 themG846 veryG5228 highlyG1537+G4053 inG1722 loveG26 forG1223 theirG846 work's sakeG2041. And be at peaceG1514 amongG1722 yourselvesG1438.
NowG1161 we exhortG3870 youG5209, brethrenG80, warnG3560 them that are unrulyG813, comfortG3888 the feeblemindedG3642, supportG472 the weakG772, be patientG3114 towardG4314 allG3956 men. {exhort: or, beseech} {unruly: or, disorderly}
SeeG3708 that noneG3361+G5100 renderG591 evilG2556 forG473 evilG2556 unto anyG5100 man; butG235 everG3842 followG1377 that whichG3588 is goodG18, bothG2532 amongG1519 yourselvesG240, andG2532 toG1519 allG3956 men.
InG1722 every thingG3956 give thanksG2168: forG1063 thisG5124 is the willG2307 of GodG2316 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 concerningG1519 youG5209.
QuenchG4570 notG3361 the SpiritG4151.
DespiseG1848 notG3361 prophesyingsG4394.
ProveG1381 all thingsG3956; hold fastG2722 that whichG3588 is goodG2570.
AbstainG567 fromG575 allG3956 appearanceG1491 of evilG4190.
AndG1161 the veryG846 GodG2316 of peaceG1515 sanctifyG37 youG5209 whollyG3651; andG2532 I pray God yourG5216 wholeG3648 spiritG4151 andG2532 soulG5590 andG2532 bodyG4983 be preservedG5083 blamelessG274 untoG1722 the comingG3952 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
FaithfulG4103 is he that callethG2564 youG5209, whoG3739 alsoG2532 will doG4160 it.
BrethrenG80, prayG4336 forG4012 usG2257.
GreetG782 allG3956 the brethrenG80 withG1722 an holyG40 kissG5370.
I chargeG3726 youG5209 by the LordG2962 that this epistleG1992 be readG314 unto allG3956 the holyG40 brethrenG80. {charge: or, adjure}
The graceG5485 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 be withG3326 youG5216. AmenG281. {The first epistle to the Thessalonians was written from Athens.}
NowG1161 the worksG2041 of the fleshG4561 areG2076 manifestG5318, whichG3748 areG2076 these; AdulteryG3430, fornicationG4202, uncleannessG167, lasciviousnessG766,
ForG1063 the timeG5550 pastG3928 of our lifeG979 may sufficeG713 usG2254 to have wroughtG2716 the willG2307 of the GentilesG1484, when we walkedG4198 inG1722 lasciviousnessG766, lustsG1939, excess of wineG3632, revellingsG2970, banquetingsG4224, andG2532 abominableG111 idolatriesG1495:
And shall receiveG2865 the rewardG3408 of unrighteousnessG93, as they that countG2233 it pleasureG2237 to riotG5172 inG1722 the day timeG2250. SpotsG4696 they are andG2532 blemishesG3470, sporting themselvesG1792 withG1722 their ownG846 deceivingsG539 while they feastG4910 with youG5213;
ForG1063 whereG3699 yourG5216 treasureG2344 isG2076, thereG1563 willG2071 yourG5216 heartG2588 beG2071 alsoG2532.
From whenceG4159 come warsG4171 andG2532 fightingsG3163 amongG1722 youG5213? come they notG3756 henceG1782, even ofG1537 yourG5216 lustsG2237 that warG4754 inG1722 yourG5216 membersG3196? {fightings: or, brawlings} {lusts: or, pleasures}
MyG3450 brethrenG80, beG1096 notG3361 manyG4183 mastersG1320, knowingG1492 thatG3754 we shall receiveG2983 the greaterG3187 condemnationG2917. {condemnation: or, judgment}
ForG1063 in many thingsG4183 we offendG4417 allG537. If any manG1536 offendG4417 notG3756 inG1722 wordG3056, the sameG3778 is a perfectG5046 manG435, and ableG1415 alsoG2532 to bridleG5468 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983.
BeholdG2400, we putG906 bitsG5469 inG1519 the horses'G2462 mouthsG4750, thatG4314 theyG846 may obeyG3982 usG2254; andG2532 we turn aboutG3329 theirG846 wholeG3650 bodyG4983.
BeholdG2400 alsoG2532 the shipsG4143, which though they beG5607 so greatG5082, andG2532 are drivenG1643 ofG5259 fierceG4642 windsG417, yet are they turned aboutG3329 withG5259 a very smallG1646 helmG4079, whithersoeverG3699+G302 the governorG2116 listethG3730+G1014.
EvenG2532 soG3779 the tongueG1100 isG2076 a littleG3398 memberG3196, andG2532 boasteth great thingsG3166. BeholdG2400, how greatG2245 a matterG5208 a littleG3641 fireG4442 kindlethG381! {a matter: or, wood}
AndG2532 the tongueG1100 is a fireG4442, a worldG2889 of iniquityG93: soG3779 isG2525 the tongueG1100 amongG1722 ourG2257 membersG3196, that it defilethG4695 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983, andG2532 setteth on fireG5394 the courseG5164 of natureG1078; andG2532 it is set on fireG5394 ofG5259 hellG1067. {course: Gr. wheel}
ForG1063 everyG3956 kindG5449 of beastsG2342, andG5037+G2532 of birdsG4071, andG5037 of serpentsG2062, andG2532 of things in the seaG1724, is tamedG1150, andG2532 hath been tamedG1150 of mankindG5449+G442: {kind: Gr. nature} {mankind: Gr. nature of man}
ButG1161 the tongueG1100 canG1410 noG3762 manG444 tameG1150; it is an unrulyG183 evilG2556, fullG3324 of deadlyG2287 poisonG2447.
TherewithG1722+G846 bless weG2127 GodG2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962; andG2532 therewithG1722+G846 curse weG2672 menG444, whichG3588 are madeG1096 afterG2596 the similitudeG3669 of GodG2316.
Out ofG1537 the sameG846 mouthG4750 proceedethG1831 blessingG2129 andG2532 cursingG2671. MyG3450 brethrenG80, these thingsG5023 oughtG5534 notG3756 soG3779 to beG1096.
DothG3385 a fountainG4077 send forthG1032 atG1537 the sameG846 placeG3692 sweetG1099 water andG2532 bitterG4089? {place: or, hole}
CanG3361+G1410 the fig treeG4808, myG3450 brethrenG80, bearG4160 olive berriesG1636? eitherG2228 a vineG288, figsG4810? soG3779 can noG3762 fountainG4077 both yieldG4160 saltG252 waterG5204 andG2532 freshG1099.
WhoG5101 is a wise manG4680 andG2532 endued with knowledgeG1990 amongG1722 youG5213? let him shewG1166 out ofG1537 a goodG2570 conversationG391 hisG846 worksG2041 withG1722 meeknessG4240 of wisdomG4678.
ButG1161 ifG1487 ye haveG2192 bitterG4089 envyingG2205 andG2532 strifeG2052 inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588, gloryG2620 notG3361, andG2532 lie notG5574 againstG2596 the truthG225.
ThisG3778 wisdomG4678 descendethG2076+G2718 notG3756 from aboveG509, butG235 is earthlyG1919, sensualG5591, devilishG1141. {sensual: or, natural}
ForG1063 whereG3699 envyingG2205 andG2532 strifeG2052 is, thereG1563 is confusionG181 andG2532 everyG3956 evilG5337 workG4229. {confusion: Gr. tumult or unquietness}
ButG1161 the wisdomG4678 that is from aboveG509 isG2076 firstG4412 pureG3303+G53, thenG1899 peaceableG1516, gentleG1933, and easy to be intreatedG2138, fullG3324 of mercyG1656 andG2532 goodG18 fruitsG2590, without partialityG87, andG2532 without hypocrisyG505. {partiality: or, wrangling}
AndG1161 the fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 is sownG4687 inG1722 peaceG1515 of them that makeG4160 peaceG1515.
ButG2532 fornicationG4202, andG1161 allG3956 uncleannessG167, orG2228 covetousnessG4124, let itG3687 not be onceG3366 namedG3687 amongG1722 youG5213, asG2531 becomethG4241 saintsG40;
There isH3426 that speakethH981 like the piercingsH4094 of a swordH2719: but the tongueH3956 of the wiseH2450 is healthH4832.
MyG3450 brethrenG80, beG1096 notG3361 manyG4183 mastersG1320, knowingG1492 thatG3754 we shall receiveG2983 the greaterG3187 condemnationG2917. {condemnation: or, judgment}
ForG1063 in many thingsG4183 we offendG4417 allG537. If any manG1536 offendG4417 notG3756 inG1722 wordG3056, the sameG3778 is a perfectG5046 manG435, and ableG1415 alsoG2532 to bridleG5468 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983.
BeholdG2400, we putG906 bitsG5469 inG1519 the horses'G2462 mouthsG4750, thatG4314 theyG846 may obeyG3982 usG2254; andG2532 we turn aboutG3329 theirG846 wholeG3650 bodyG4983.
BeholdG2400 alsoG2532 the shipsG4143, which though they beG5607 so greatG5082, andG2532 are drivenG1643 ofG5259 fierceG4642 windsG417, yet are they turned aboutG3329 withG5259 a very smallG1646 helmG4079, whithersoeverG3699+G302 the governorG2116 listethG3730+G1014.
EvenG2532 soG3779 the tongueG1100 isG2076 a littleG3398 memberG3196, andG2532 boasteth great thingsG3166. BeholdG2400, how greatG2245 a matterG5208 a littleG3641 fireG4442 kindlethG381! {a matter: or, wood}
AndG2532 the tongueG1100 is a fireG4442, a worldG2889 of iniquityG93: soG3779 isG2525 the tongueG1100 amongG1722 ourG2257 membersG3196, that it defilethG4695 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983, andG2532 setteth on fireG5394 the courseG5164 of natureG1078; andG2532 it is set on fireG5394 ofG5259 hellG1067. {course: Gr. wheel}
ForG1063 everyG3956 kindG5449 of beastsG2342, andG5037+G2532 of birdsG4071, andG5037 of serpentsG2062, andG2532 of things in the seaG1724, is tamedG1150, andG2532 hath been tamedG1150 of mankindG5449+G442: {kind: Gr. nature} {mankind: Gr. nature of man}
ButG1161 the tongueG1100 canG1410 noG3762 manG444 tameG1150; it is an unrulyG183 evilG2556, fullG3324 of deadlyG2287 poisonG2447.
TherewithG1722+G846 bless weG2127 GodG2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962; andG2532 therewithG1722+G846 curse weG2672 menG444, whichG3588 are madeG1096 afterG2596 the similitudeG3669 of GodG2316.
Out ofG1537 the sameG846 mouthG4750 proceedethG1831 blessingG2129 andG2532 cursingG2671. MyG3450 brethrenG80, these thingsG5023 oughtG5534 notG3756 soG3779 to beG1096.
DothG3385 a fountainG4077 send forthG1032 atG1537 the sameG846 placeG3692 sweetG1099 water andG2532 bitterG4089? {place: or, hole}
CanG3361+G1410 the fig treeG4808, myG3450 brethrenG80, bearG4160 olive berriesG1636? eitherG2228 a vineG288, figsG4810? soG3779 can noG3762 fountainG4077 both yieldG4160 saltG252 waterG5204 andG2532 freshG1099.
WhoG5101 is a wise manG4680 andG2532 endued with knowledgeG1990 amongG1722 youG5213? let him shewG1166 out ofG1537 a goodG2570 conversationG391 hisG846 worksG2041 withG1722 meeknessG4240 of wisdomG4678.
ButG1161 ifG1487 ye haveG2192 bitterG4089 envyingG2205 andG2532 strifeG2052 inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588, gloryG2620 notG3361, andG2532 lie notG5574 againstG2596 the truthG225.
ThisG3778 wisdomG4678 descendethG2076+G2718 notG3756 from aboveG509, butG235 is earthlyG1919, sensualG5591, devilishG1141. {sensual: or, natural}
ForG1063 whereG3699 envyingG2205 andG2532 strifeG2052 is, thereG1563 is confusionG181 andG2532 everyG3956 evilG5337 workG4229. {confusion: Gr. tumult or unquietness}
ButG1161 the wisdomG4678 that is from aboveG509 isG2076 firstG4412 pureG3303+G53, thenG1899 peaceableG1516, gentleG1933, and easy to be intreatedG2138, fullG3324 of mercyG1656 andG2532 goodG18 fruitsG2590, without partialityG87, andG2532 without hypocrisyG505. {partiality: or, wrangling}
AndG1161 the fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 is sownG4687 inG1722 peaceG1515 of them that makeG4160 peaceG1515.
FinallyG1161+G5056, be ye allG3956 of one mindG3675, having compassion one of anotherG4835, love as brethrenG5361, be pitifulG2155, be courteousG5391: {love as: or, loving to the}
LetG3049 a manG444 soG3779 accountG3049 of usG2248, asG5613 of the ministersG5257 of ChristG5547, andG2532 stewardsG3623 of the mysteriesG3466 of GodG2316.
MoreoverG3063 it is requiredG2212 inG1722 stewardsG3623, thatG2443 a manG5100 be foundG2147 faithfulG4103.
ButG1161 with meG1698 it isG2076 a very small thingG1519+G1646 thatG2443 I should be judgedG350 ofG5259 youG5216, orG2228 ofG5259 man'sG442 judgmentG2250: yeaG235, I judgeG350 notG3761 mine own selfG1683. {judgment: Gr. day}
ForG1063 I knowG4894 nothingG3762 by myselfG1683; yetG235 am IG1344 notG3756 herebyG1722+G5129 justifiedG1344: butG1161 he that judgethG350 meG3165 isG2076 the LordG2962. {know: or, I am not conscious of any fault}
ThereforeG5620 judgeG2919 nothingG3361+G5100 beforeG4253 the timeG2540, untilG2193+G302 the LordG2962 comeG2064, whoG3739 bothG2532 will bring to lightG5461 the hidden thingsG2927 of darknessG4655, andG2532 will make manifestG5319 the counselsG1012 of the heartsG2588: andG2532 thenG5119 shall every manG1538 haveG1096 praiseG1868 ofG575 GodG2316.
ButG1161 foolishG3474 andG2532 unlearnedG521 questionsG2214 avoidG3868, knowingG1492 thatG3754 they do genderG1080 strifesG3163.
AndG1161 the servantG1401 of the LordG2962 mustG1163 notG3756 striveG3164; butG235 beG1511 gentleG2261 untoG4314 allG3956 men, apt to teachG1317, patientG420, {patient: or, forbearing}
The beginningH7225 of strifeH4066 is as when one letteth outH6362 waterH4325: therefore leave offH5203 contentionH7379, beforeH6440 it be meddledH1566 with.
By longH753 forbearingH639 is a princeH7101 persuadedH6601, and a softH7390 tongueH3956 breakethH7665 the boneH1634.
