1This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And I saw and fell upon my face, and heard the voice of one speaking: and he said to me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak to thee.
12Your mother is greatly ashamed; your mother that bore you for prosperity is confounded: she is the last of the nations, desolate,
21on the land, saith the Lord.Go up against it roughly, and against them that dwell on it: avenge, O sword, and destroy utterly, saith the Lord, and do according to all that I command thee.
23How is the hammer of the whole earth broken and crushed! How is Babylon become a desolation among the nations!
22For they will suddenly punish the ungodly,And who can know the vengeance inflicted by both?A son that keeps the commandment shall escape destruction;For such a one has fully received it.Let no falsehood be spoken by the king from the tongue;Yea, let no falsehood proceed from his tongue.The king’s tongue is a sword, and not one of flesh;And whosoever shall be given up to it shall be destroyed:For if his wrath should be provoked,He destroys men with cords,And devours men’s bones,And burns them up as a flame,So that they are not even fit to be eaten by the young eagles.My son, reverence my words,And receive them, and repent.These things says the man to them that trust in God; and I cease.For I am the most simple of all men,And there is not in me the wisdom of men.God has taught me wisdom,And I know the knowledge of the holy.Who has gone up to heaven, and come down?Who has gathered the winds in his bosom?Who has wrapped up the waters in a garment?Who has dominion of all the ends of the earth?What is his name? or what is the name of his children?For all the words of God are tried in the fire,And he defends those that reverence him.Add not unto his words,Lest he reprove thee, and thou be made a liar.Two things I ask of thee;Take not favor from me before I die.Remove far from me vanity and falsehood:And give me not wealth or poverty;But appoint me what is needful and sufficient:Lest I be filled and become false, and say, Who sees me?Or be poor and steal, and swear vainly by the name of God.Deliver not a servant into the hands of his master,Lest he curse thee, and thou be utterly destroyed.A wicked generation curse their father,And do not bless their mother.A wicked generation judge themselves to be just,But do not cleanse their way.A wicked generation have lofty eyes,And exalt themselves with their eyelids.A wicked generation have swords for teeth and jaw teeth as knives,So as to destroy and devour the lowly from the earth,And the poor of them from among men.
54My words have been spoken by God—The oracular answer of a king, whom his mother instructed.
55What wilt thou keep, my son, what? the words of God.My firstborn son, I speak to thee:What? son of my womb?What? son of my vows?
12And the woman said, As the Lord thy God lives, I have not a cake, but only a handful of meal in the pitcher, and a little oil in a cruse, and, behold, I am going to gather two sticks, and I shall go in and dress it for myself and my children, and we shall eat it and die.
12And God spoke to Moses, saying, I will be with thee, and this shall be the sign to thee that I shall send thee forth—when thou bringest out my people out of Egypt, then ye shall serve God in this mountain.
13And Moses said to God, Behold, I shall go forth to the children of Israel, and shall say to them, The God of our fathers has sent me to you; and they will ask me, What is his name? What shall I say to them?
22But every woman shall ask of her neighbor and fellow lodger, articles of gold and silver, and apparel; and ye shall put them upon your sons and upon your daughters—and spoil ye the Egyptians.
17Then he told her all his heart, and said to her, A razor has not come upon my head, because I have been a holy one of God from my mother’s womb; if then I should be shaven, my strength will depart from me, and I shall be weak, and I shall be as all other men.
18And Delilah saw that he told her all his heart, and she sent and called the princes of the Philistines, saying, Come up yet this once; for he has told me all his heart. And the chiefs of the Philistines went up to her, and brought the money in their hands.
13Ye are my brethren, ye are my bones and my flesh: why are ye the last to bring back the king to his house?
36I am this day eighty years old: can I then distinguish between good and evil? Can thy servant taste any longer what I eat or drink? can I any longer hear the voice of singing men or singing women? and wherefore shall thy servant any longer be a burden to my lord the king?
38Let, I pray thee, thy servant remain, and I will die in my city, by the tomb of my father and of my mother. And, behold, thy servant Chimham shall go over with my lord the king; and do thou to him as it seems good in thine eyes.
23Every creeping thing from among the birds, which has four feet, is an abomination to you.
30the ferret, and the chameleon, and the evet, and the newt, and the mole.
42And every animal that creeps on its belly, and every one that goes on four feet continually, which abounds with feet among all the reptiles creeping upon the earth—ye shall not eat it, for it is an abomination to you.
7For he which is Lord over all shall fear no man’s person,Neither shall he stand in awe of any man’s greatness:For he hath made the small and great,And careth for all alike.
17For the very true beginning of her is the desire of discipline;And the care of discipline is love;
17And the sons of Asher; Imnah, Ishvah, and Jeul, and Beriah, and Serah their sister. And the sons of Beriah; Heber, and Malchiel.
20And there were sons born to Joseph in the land of Egypt, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of Heliopolis, bore to him, even Manasseh and Ephraim. And there were sons born to Manasseh, which the Syrian concubine bore to him, even Machir. And Machir begot Gilead. And the sons of Ephraim, the brother of Manasseh; Shuthelah, and Tahan. And the sons of Shuthelah; Eran.
21And the sons of Benjamin; Bela, and Becher, and Ashbel. And the sons of Bela were Gera, and Naaman, and Ehi, and Rosh, and Muppim. And Gera begot Ard.
