And Samuel
said unto the people, [It is] the LORD that advanced Moses and Aaron, and
that brought your fathers up out of the land of Egypt. And in every work
that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in
the commandments, to seek his God, he did [it] with all his heart, and
prospered. Were the gods of the nations of those lands any ways able to
deliver their lands out of mine hand? And ye shall not walk in the
manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed
all these things, and therefore I abhorred them. Ye have not eaten bread,
neither have ye drunk wine or strong drink: that ye might know that I
[am] the LORD your God. So shall not the inheritance of the children of
Israel remove from tribe to tribe: for every one of the children of
Israel shall keep himself to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
The wicked worketh a deceitful work: but to him that soweth righteousness
[shall be] a sure reward. Having many things to write unto you, I would
not [write] with paper and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak

gnat, and swallow a camel. By little and little I will drive them out
from before thee, until thou be increased, and inherit the land. Of Gad;
Eliasaph the son of Deuel. But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered
his secret places, and he shall not be able to hide himself: his seed is
spoiled, and his brethren, and his neighbours, and he [is] not. Mine eyes
do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured upon the
earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the
children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city. And they
covet fields, and take [them] by violence; and houses, and take [them]
away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.
And Jacob came to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which [is] in the land of

city. I have given him the land of Egypt [for] his labour wherewith he
served against it, because they wrought for me, saith the Lord GOD. Come
now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into some pit, and we

become of his dreams. Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the
righteous shall be desolate. And he blessed him, and said, Blessed [be]
Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth: And blessed be

come again out of captivity, and all such as had separated themselves
unto them from the filthiness of the heathen of the land, to seek the
LORD God of Israel, did eat, And kept the feast of unleavened bread seven
days with joy: for the LORD had made them joyful, and turned the heart of
the king of Assyria unto them, to strengthen their hands in the work of
the house of God, the God of Israel. And it came to pass, while they were
slaying them, and I was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried, and

pouring out of thy fury upon Jerusalem? Then the king commanded, and they
brought Daniel, and cast [him] into the den of lions. And Absalom said to

bare a son; and he called his name Er. And she conceived again, and bare
a son; and she called his name Onan. For that which befalleth the sons of
men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so
dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no
preeminence above a beast: for all [is] vanity. And Benaiah the son of
Jehoiada answered the king, and said, Amen: the LORD God of my lord the
king say so [too]. They will not frame their doings to turn unto their
God: for the spirit of whoredoms [is] in the midst of them, and they have
not known the LORD. David said furthermore, [As] the LORD liveth, the
LORD shall smite him; or his day shall come to die; or he shall descend
into battle, and perish. Paul and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus
Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the
bishops and deacons: Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from God our Father,
and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot
do evil, neither also [is it] in them to do good. Now the body [is] not
for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body. But of that
day and [that] hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in
heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. If I justify myself, mine own
mouth shall condemn me: [if I say], I [am] perfect, it shall also prove
me perverse. Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured
into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever. Then shalt thou
walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble. And this work of
the candlestick [was of] beaten gold, unto the shaft thereof, unto the
flowers thereof, [was] beaten work: according unto the pattern which the
LORD had shewed Moses, so he made the candlestick. I will bring it forth,
saith the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief,
and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall
remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber
thereof and the stones thereof. Come now therefore, and I will send thee
unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of
Israel out of Egypt. He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my
house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight. And there was
also a man that prophesied in the name of the LORD, Urijah the son of
Shemaiah of Kirjathjearim, who prophesied against this city and against
this land according to all the words of Jeremiah: And when Jehoiakim the
king, with all his mighty men, and all the princes, heard his words, the
king sought to put him to death: but when Urijah heard it, he was afraid,
and fled, and went into Egypt; And Jehoiakim the king sent men into
Egypt, [namely], Elnathan the son of Achbor, and [certain] men with him
into Egypt. Why will ye die, thou and thy people, by the sword, by the
famine, and by the pestilence, as the LORD hath spoken against the nation

transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted. And it

of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. And Nathanael
said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? But when
the Jews spake against [it], I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not
that I had ought to accuse my nation of. I will offer unto thee burnt
sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks
with goats. Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin
against thee. Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the
saints. Who [is] he that hideth counsel without knowledge? Because I knew
that thou [art] obstinate, and thy neck [is] an iron sinew, and thy brow
brass; I have even from the beginning declared [it] to thee; before it
came to pass I shewed [it] thee: lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath
done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.
Now therefore call unto me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants,

that a woman pray unto God uncovered? Gather not my soul with sinners,
nor my life with bloody men: In whose hands [is] mischief, and their
right hand is full of bribes. Woe unto the wicked! [it shall be] ill
[with him]: for the reward of his hands shall be given him. Abram dwelled
in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and

son, Zerah his son, Jeaterai his son. And the most proud shall stumble
and fall, and none shall raise him up: and I will kindle a fire in his
cities, and it shall devour all round about him. And he said, There
remaineth yet the youngest, and, behold, he keepeth the sheep. Flee, get
you far off, dwell deep, O ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith the LORD; for
Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath taken counsel against you, and hath
conceived a purpose against you. And [as for] the prophet, and the
priest, and the people, that shall say, The burden of the LORD, I will
even punish that man and his house. Now this [was the manner] in former
time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning changing, for to
confirm all things; a man plucked off his shoe, and gave [it] to his
neighbour: and this [was] a testimony in Israel. I therefore, the
