He that hath killed a man, or touched one that is killed, shall be purified the third day and the seventh day.\n20 And of all the spoil, every garment, or vessel, or any thing made for use, of the skins, or hair of goats, or of wood, shall be purified.\n21 Eleazar also the priest spoke to the men of the army, that had fought, in this manner: This is the ordinance of the law, which the Lord hath commanded Moses:\n22 Gold, and silver, and brass, and iron, and lend, and tin,\n23 And all that may pass through the fire, shall be purified by fire, but whatsoever cannot abide the fire, shall be sanctified with the water of expiation:\n24 And you shall wash your garments the seventh day, and being purified, you shall afterwards enter into the camp.\n25 And the Lord said to Moses:\n26 Take the sum of the things that were taken both of man and beast, thou and Eleazar the priest and the princes of the multitude:\n27 And thou shalt divide the spoil equally, between them that fought and went out to the war, and between the rest of the multitude.\n28 And thou shalt separate a portion to the Lord from them that fought and were in the battle, one soul of five hundred as well of persons as of oxen and asses and sheep.\n29 And thou shalt give it to Eleazar the priest, because they are the firstfruits of the Lord.\n30 Out of the moiety also of the children of Israel thou shalt take the fiftieth head of persons, and of oxen, and asses, and sheep, and of all beasts, and thou shalt give them to the Levites that watch in the charge of the tabernacle of the Lord.\n31 And Moses and Eleazar did as the Lord had commanded.\n32 And the spoil which the army had taken, was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,\n33 Seventy-two thousand oxen,\n34 Sixty-one thousand asses:\n**35 And thirty-two thousand persons of the female sex, that had not known men.**\n36 And one half was given to them that had been in the battle, to wit, three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep:\n37 Out of which, for the portion of the Lord, were reckoned six hundred seventy-five sheep.\n38 And out of the thirty-six thousand oxen, seventy-two oxen:\n39 Out of the thirty thousand five hundred asses, sixty-one asses:\n40 Out of the sixteen thousand persons, there fell to the portion of the Lord, thirty-two souls.\n41 And Moses delivered the number of the firstfruits of the Lord to Eleazar the priest, as had been commanded him,\n42 Out of the half of the children of Israel, which he had separated for them that had been in the battle.\n43 But out of the half that fell to the rest of the multitude, that is to say, out of the three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,\n44 And out of the thirty-six thousand oxen,\n45 And out of the thirty thousand five hundred asses,\n46 And out of the sixteen thousand persons,\n47 Moses took the fiftieth head, and gave it to the Levites that watched in the tabernacle of the Lord, as the Lord had commanded.\n48 And when the commanders of the army, and the tribunes and centurions were come to Moses, they said:\n49 We thy servants have reckoned up the number of the fighting men, whom we had under our hand, and not so much as one was wanting.\n50 Therefore we offer as gifts to the Lord what gold every one of us could find in the booty, in garters and tablets, rings and bracelets, and chains, that thou mayst pray to the Lord for us.\n51 And Moses and Eleazar the priest received all the gold in divers kinds,\n52 In weight sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty sicles, from the tribunes and from the centurions.\n53 For that which every one had taken in the booty was his own.\n54 And that which was received they brought into the tabernacle of the testimony, for a memorial of the children of Israel before the Lord.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"The senseless man shall not know: nor will the fool understand these things.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of *Psalm*, chapter *91*.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n*Psalm Chapter 91*\n1 A psalm of a canticle on the sabbath day.\n2 It is good to give praise to the Lord: and to sing to thy name, O most High.\n3 To shew forth thy mercy in the morning, and thy truth in the night:\n4 Upon an instrument of ten strings, upon the psaltery: with a canticle upon the harp.\n5 For thou hast given me, O Lord, a delight in thy doings: and in the works of thy hands I shall rejoice.\n6 O Lord, how great are thy works!

within it, trusting in the strength of the walls, and the provision of victuals, behaved in a more negligent manner, and provoked Judas with railing and blaspheming, and uttering such words as were not to be spoken.\n15 But Machabeus calling upon the great Lord of the world, who without any rams or engines of war threw down the walls of Jericho in the time of Josue, fiercely assaulted the walls.\n16 And having taken the city by the will of the Lord, he made an unspeakable slaughter, so that a pool adjoining of two furlongs broad seemed to run with the blood of the slain.\n17 From thence they departed seven hundred and fifty furlongs, and came to Characa to the Jews that are called Tubianites.\n18 But as for Timotheus, they found him not in those places, for before he had dispatched any thing he went back, having left a very strong garrison in a certain hold:\n19 But Dositheus, and Sosipater, who were captains with Machabeus, slew them that were left by Timotheus in the hold, to the number of ten thousand men.\n20 And Machabeus having set in order about him six thousand men, and divided them by bands, went forth against Timotheus, who had with him a hundred and twenty thousand footmen, and two thousand five hundred horsemen.\n21 Now when Timotheus had knowledge of the coming of Judas, he sent the women and children, and the other baggage before him into a fortress, called Carnion: for it was impregnable and hard to come at, by reason of the straitness of the places.\n22 But when the first band of Judas came in sight, the enemies were struck with fear, by the presence of God, who seeth all things, and they were put to flight one from another, so that they were often thrown down by their own companions, and wounded with the strokes of their own swords.\n23 But Judas was vehemently earnest in punishing the profane, of whom he slew thirty thousand men.\n24 And Timotheus himself fell into the hands of the band of Dositheus and Sosipater, and with many prayers he besought them to let him go with his life, because he had the parents and brethren of many of the Jews, who, by his death, might happen to be deceived.\n25 And when he had given his faith that he would restore them according to the agreement, they let him go without hurt, for the saving of their brethren.\n26 Then Judas went away to Carnion, where he slew five and twenty thousand persons.\n27 And after he had put to flight and destroyed these, he removed his army to Ephron, a strong city, wherein there dwelt a multitude of divers nations: and stout young men standing upon the walls made a vigorous resistance: and in this place there were many engines of war, and a provision of darts.\n28 But when they had invocated the Almighty, who with his power breaketh the strength of the enemies, they took the city; and slew five and twenty thousand of them that were within.\n29 From thence they departed to Scythopolis, which lieth six hundred furlongs from Jerusalem.\n30 But the Jews that were among the Scythopolitans testifying that they were used kindly by them, and that even in the times of their adversity they had treated them with humanity:\n31 They gave them thanks exhorting them to be still friendly to their nation, and so they came to Jerusalem, the feast of the weeks being at hand.\n32 And after Pentecost they marched against Gorgias the governor of Idumea.\n33 And he came out with three thousand footmen, and four hundred horsemen.\n34 And when they had joined battle, it happened that a few of the Jews were slain.\n35 But Dositheus, a horseman, one of Bacenor's band, a valiant man, took hold of Gorgias: and when he would have taken him alive, a certain horseman of the Thracians came upon him, and cut off his shoulder: and so Gorgias escaped to Maresa.\n36 But when they that were with Esdrin had fought long, and were weary, Judas called upon the Lord to be their helper, and leader of the battle:\n37 Then beginning in his own language, and singing hymns with a loud voice, he put Gorgias' soldiers to flight.\n38 So Judas having gathered together his army, came into the city Odollam: and when the seventh day came, they purified themselves according to the custom, and kept the sabbath in the place.\n39 And the day following Judas came with his company, to take away the bodies of them that were slain, and to bury them with their kinsmen, in the sepulchres of their fathers.\n40 And they found under the coats of the slain some of the donaries of the idols of Jamnia, which the law forbiddeth to the Jews: so that all plainly saw, that for this cause they were slain.\n41 Then they all blessed the just judgment of the Lord, who had discovered the things that were hidden.\n42 And so betaking themselves to prayers, they besought him, that the sin which had been committed might be forgotten. But the most valiant Judas exhorted the people to keep themselves from sin, forasmuch as they saw before their eyes what had happened, because of the sins of those that were slain.\n43 And making a gathering, he sent twelve thousand drachms of silver to Jerusalem for sacrifice to be offered for the sins of the dead, thinking well and religiously concerning the resurrection,\n44 (For if he had not hoped that they that were slain should rise again, it would have seemed superfluous and vain to pray for the dead,)\n45 And because he considered that they who had fallen asleep with godliness, had great grace laid up for them.\n46 It is therefore a holy and wholesome thought to pray for the dead, that they may be loosed from sins.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Recite Esther 11:6", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Esther chapter 11, verse 6, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And behold two great dragons came forth ready to fight one against another.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the reference (book, chapter, verse) for \"And they digged in the torrent, and found living water.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture \"And they digged in the torrent, and found living water.\" is located in Genesis 26:19 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Isaiah, chapter 14, verse 9 - what does it say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Isaiah 14:9 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"Hell below was in an uproar to meet thee at thy coming, it stirred up the giants for thee.

Phatures, saying:\n2 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: You have seen all this evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Juda: and behold they are desolate this day, and there is not an inhabitant in them:\n3 Because of the wickedness which they have committed, to provoke me to wrath, and to go and offer sacrifice, and worship other gods, which neither they, nor you, nor your fathers knew.\n4 And I sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising early, and sending, and saying: Do not commit this abominable thing, which I hate.\n5 But they heard not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their evil ways, and not to sacrifice to strange gods.\n6 Wherefore my indignation and my fury was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem: and they are turned to desolation and waste, as at this day.\n7 And now thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Why do you commit this great evil against your own souls, that there should die of you man and woman, child and suckling out of the midst of Juda, and no remnant should be left you:\n8 In that you provoke me to wrath with the works of your hands, by sacrificing to other gods in the land of Egypt, into which you are come to dwell there: and that you should perish, and be a curse, and a reproach to all the nations of the earth?\n9 Have you forgotten the evils of your fathers, and the evils of the kings of Juda, and the evils of their wives, and your evils, and the evils of your wives, that they have done in the land of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem?\n10 They are not cleansed even to this day: neither have they feared, nor walked in the law of the Lord, nor in my commandments, which I set before you and your fathers.\n11 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Behold I will set my face upon you for evil: and I will destroy all Juda.\n12 And I will take the remnant of Juda that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt, and to dwell there: and they shall be all consumed in the land of Egypt: they shall fall by the sword, and by the famine: and they shall be consumed from the least even to the greatest, by the sword, and by the famine shall they die: and they shall be for an execration, and for a wonder, and for a curse, and for a reproach.\n13 And I will visit them that dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have visited Jerusalem by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence.\n14 And there shall be none that shall escape, and remain of the remnant of the Jews that are gone to sojourn in the land of Egypt: and that shall return into the land of Juda, to which they have a desire to return to dwell there: there shall none return but they that shall flee.\n15 Then all the men that knew that their wives sacrificed to other gods: and all the women of whom there stood by a great multitude, and all the people of them that dwelt in the land of Egypt in Phatures, answered Jeremias, saying:\n16 As for the word which thou hast spoken to us in the name of the Lord, we will not hearken to thee:\n17 But we will certainly do every word that shall proceed out of our own mouth, to sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we and our fathers have done, our kings, and our princes in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem: and we were filled with bread, and it was well with us, and we saw no evil.\n18 But since we left off to offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword, and by famine.\n19 And if we offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and pour out drink offerings to her: did we make cakes to worship her, to pour out drink offerings to her, without our husbands?\n20 And Jeremias spoke to all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people which had given him that answer, saying:\n21 Was it not the sacrifice that you offered in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and Sour fathers, your kings, and your princes, and the people of the land, which the Lord hath remembered, and hath it not entered into his heart?\n22 So that the Lord could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which you have committed: therefore your land is become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day.\n23 Because you have sacrificed to idols, and have sinned against the Lord: and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord, and have not walked in his law, and in his commandments, and in his testimonies: therefore are these evils come upon you, as at this day.\n24 And Jeremias said to all the people, and to all the women: Hear ye the word of the Lord, all Juda, you that dwell in the land of Egypt:\n25 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, saying: You and your wives have spoken with your mouth, and fulfilled with your hands, saying: Let us perform our vows which we have made, to offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her: you have fulfilled your vows, and have performed them indeed.\n26 Therefore hear ye the word of the Lord, all Juda, you that dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold I have sworn by my great name, saith the Lord: that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Juda, in the land of Egypt, saying: The Lord God liveth.\n27 Behold I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men of Juda that are in the land of Egypt, shall be consumed, by the sword, and by famine, till there be an end of them.\n28 And a few men that shall flee from the sword, shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Juda: and all the remnant of Juda that are gone into the land of Egypt to dwell there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine, or theirs.\n29 And this shall be a sign to you, saith the Lord, that I will punish you in this place: that you may know that my words shall be accomplished indeed against you for evil.\n**30 Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will deliver Pharao Ephree king of Egypt into the hand

Here it is:\n*Judith Chapter 8*\n1 Now it came to pass, when Judith a widow had heard these words, who was the daughter of Merari, the son of Idox, the son of Joseph, the son of Ozias, the son of Elai, the son of Jamnor, the son of Gedeon, the son of Raphaim, the son of Achitob, the son of Melehias, the son of Enan, the son of Nathanias, the son of Salathiel, the son of Simeon, the son of Ruben:\n2 And her husband was Manasses, who died in the time of the barley harvest:\n3 For he was standing over them that bound sheaves in the field; and the heat came upon his head, and he died in Bethulia his own city, and was buried there with his fathers.\n4 And Judith his relict was a widow now three years and six months.\n5 And she made herself a private chamber in the upper part of her house, in which she abode shut up with her maids.\n6 And she wore haircloth upon her loins, and fasted all the days of her life, except the sabbaths, and new moons, and the feasts of the house of Israel.\n7 And she was exceedingly beautiful, and her husband left her great riches, and very many servants, and large possessions of herds of oxen, and flocks of sheep.\n8 And she was greatly renowned among all, because she feared the Lord very much, neither was there any one that spoke an ill word of her.\n9 When therefore she had heard that Ozias had promised that he would deliver up the city after the fifth day, she sent to the ancients Chabri and Charmi.\n10 And they came to her, and she said to them: What is this word, by which Ozias hath consented to give up the city to the Assyrians, if within five days there come no aid to us?\n11 And who are you that tempt the Lord?\n12 This is not a word that may draw down mercy, but rather that may stir up wrath, and enkindle indignation.\n13 You have set a time for the mercy of the Lord, and you have appointed him a day, according to your pleasure.\n14 But forasmuch as the Lord is patient, let us be penitent for this same thing, and with many tears let us beg his pardon:\n15 For God will not threaten like man, nor be inflamed to anger like the son of man.\n16 And therefore let us humble our souls before him, and continuing in an humble spirit, in his service:\n17 Let us ask the Lord with tears, that according to his will so he would shew his mercy to us: that as our heart is troubled by their pride, so also we may glorify in our humility.\n18 For we have not followed the sins of our fathers, who forsook their God, and worshipped strange gods.\n19 For which crime they were given up to their enemies, to the sword, and to pillage, and to confusion: but we know no other God but him.\n20 Let us humbly wait for his consolation, and the Lord our God will require our blood of the afflictions of our enemies, and he will humble all the nations that shall rise up against us, and bring them to disgrace.\n21 And now, brethren, as you are the ancients among the people of God, and their very soul resteth upon you: comfort their hearts by your speech, that they may be mindful how our fathers were tempted that they might be proved, whether they worshipped their God truly.\n22 They must remember how our father Abraham was tempted, and being proved by many tribulations, was made the friend of God.\n23 So Isaac, so Jacob, so Moses, and all that have pleased God, passed through many tribulations, remaining faithful.\n24 But they that did not receive the trials with the fear of the Lord, but uttered their impatience and the reproach of their murmuring against the Lord,\n25 Were destroyed by the destroyer, and perished by serpents.\n26 As for us therefore let us not revenge ourselves for these things which we suffer.\n27 But esteeming these very punishments to be less than our sins deserve, let us believe that these scourges of the Lord, with which like servants we are chastised, have happened for our amendment, and not for our destruction.\n28 And Ozias and the ancients said to her: All things which thou hast spoken are true, and there is nothing to be reprehended in thy words.\n29 Now therefore pray for us, for thou art a holy woman, and one fearing God.\n30 And Judith said to them: As you know that what I have been able to say is of God:\n31 So that which I intend to do prove ye if it be of God, and pray that God may strengthen my design.\n32 You shall stand at the gate this night, and I will go out with my maidservant: and pray ye, that as you have said, in five days the Lord may look down upon his people Israel.\n**33 But I desire that you search not into what I am doing, and till I bring you word let nothing else be done but to pray for me to the Lord our God.**\n34 And Ozias the prince of Juda said to her: Go in peace, and the Lord be with thee to take revenge of our enemies.

And they were scandalized in regard of him.\n4 And Jesus said to them: A prophet is not without honor, but in his own country, and in his own house, and among his own kindred.\n5 And he could not do any miracles there, only that he cured a few that were sick, laying his hands upon them.\n6 And he wondered because of their unbelief, and he went through the villages round about teaching.\n7 And he called the twelve; and began to send them two and two, and gave them power over unclean spirits.\n8 And he commanded them that they should take nothing for the way, but a staff only: no scrip, no bread, nor money in their purse,\n9 But to be shod with sandals, and that they should not put on two coats.\n10 And he said to them: Wheresoever you shall enter into an house, there abide till you depart from that place.\n11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you; going forth from thence, shake off the dust from your feet for a testimony to them.\n12 And going forth they preached that men should do penance:\n13 And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed them.\n14 And king Herod heard, (for his name was made manifest,) and he said: John the Baptist is risen again from the dead, and therefore mighty works shew forth themselves in him.\n15 And others said: It is Elias. But others said: It is a prophet, as one of the prophets.\n16 Which Herod hearing, said: John whom I beheaded, he is risen again from the dead.\n17 For Herod himself had sent and apprehended John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, because he had married her.\n18 For John said to Herod: It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's wife.\n19 Now Herodias laid snares for him: and was desirous to put him to death, and could not.\n20 For Herod feared John, knowing him to be a just and holy man: and kept him, and when he heard him, did many things: and he heard him willingly.\n21 And when a convenient day was come, Herod made a supper for his birthday, for the princes, and tribunes, and chief men of Galilee.\n22 And when the daughter of the same Herodias had come in, and had danced, and pleased Herod, and them that were at table with him, the king said to the damsel: Ask of me what thou wilt, and I will give it thee.\n23 And he swore to her: Whatsoever thou shalt ask I will give thee, though it be the half of my kingdom.\n24 Who when she was gone out, said to her mother, What shall I ask?

Be they confounded also that worship them.\n26 Therefore if they fall to the ground, they rise not up again of themselves, nor if a man set them upright, will they stand by themselves, but their gifts shall be set before them, as to the dead.\n27 The things that are sacrificed to them, their priests sell and abuse: in like manner also their wives take part of them, but give nothing of it either to the sick, or to the poor.\n28 The childbearing and menstruous women touch their sacrifices: knowing therefore by these things that they are not gods, fear them not.\n29 For how can they be called gods? because women set offerings before the gods of silver, and of gold, and of wood:\n30 And priests sit in their temples, having their garments rent, and their heads and beards shaven, and nothing upon their heads.\n31 And they roar and cry before their gods, as men do at the feast when one is dead.\n32 The priests take away their garments, and clothe their wives and their children.\n33 And whether it be evil that one doth unto them, or good, they are not able to recompense it: neither can they set up a king nor put him down:\n34 In like manner they can neither give riches, nor requite evil. If a man make a vow to them, and perform it not, they cannot require it.\n35 They cannot deliver a man from death nor save the weak from the mighty.\n36 They cannot restore the blind man to his sight: nor deliver a man from distress.\n37 They shall not pity the widow, nor do good to the fatherless.\n**38 Their gods, of wood, and of stone, and of gold, and of silver, are like the stones that are hewn out of the mountains: and they that worship them shall be confounded.**\n39 How then is it to be supposed, or to be said, that they are gods?\n40 Even the Chaldeans themselves dishonour them: who when they hear of one dumb that cannot speak, they present him to Bel, entreating him, that he may speak,\n41 As though they could be sensible that have no motion themselves: and they, when they shall perceive this, will leave them: for their gods themselves have no sense.\n42 The women also with cords about them, sit in the ways, burning olive stones.\n43 And when any one of them, drawn away by some passenger, lieth with him, she upbraideth her neighbour, that she was not thought as worthy as herself, nor her cord broken.\n44 But all things that are done about them, are false: how is it then to be thought, or to be said, that they are gods?\n45 And they are made by workmen, and by goldsmiths. They shall be nothing else but what the priests will have them to be.\n46 For the artificers themselves that make them, are of no long continuance. Can those things then that are made by them be gods?\n47 But they have left false things and reproach to them that come after.\n48 For when war cometh upon them, or evils, the priests consult with themselves where they may hide themselves with them.\n49 How then can they be thought to be gods, that can neither deliver themselves from war, nor save themselves from evils?\n50 For seeing they are but of wood, and laid over with gold, and with silver, it shall be known hereafter that they are false things, by all nations and kings: and it shall be manifest that they are no gods, but the work of men's hands, and that there is no work of God in them.\n51 Whence therefore is it known that they are not gods, but the work of men's hands, and no work of God is in them?\n52 They cannot set up a king over the land, nor give rain to men.\n53 They determine no causes, nor deliver countries from oppression; because they can do nothing, and are as daws between heaven and earth.\n54 For when fire shall fall upon the house of these gods of wood, and of silver, and of gold, their priests indeed will flee away, and be saved: but they themselves shall be burnt in the midst like beams.\n55 And they cannot withstand a king and war. How then can it be supposed, or admitted that they are gods?\n56 Neither are these gods of wood, and of stone, and laid over with gold, and with silver, able to deliver themselves from thieves or robbers: they that are stronger than them\n57 Shall take from them the gold, and silver, and the raiment wherewith they are clothed, and shall go their way, neither shall they help themselves.\n58 Therefore it is better to be a king that sheweth his power: or else a profitable vessel in the house, with which the owner thereof will be well satisfied: or a door in the house, to keep things safe that are therein, than such false gods.\n59 The sun, and the moon, and the stars being bright, and sent forth for profitable uses, are obedient.\n60 In like manner the lightning, when it breaketh forth, is easy to be seen: and after the same manner the wind bloweth in every country.\n61 And the clouds when God commandeth them to go over the whole world, do that which is commanded them.\n62 The fire also being sent from above to consume mountains and woods, doth as it is commanded. But these neither in shew, nor in power are like to any one of them.\n63 Wherefore it is neither to be thought, nor to be said, that they are gods: since they are neither able to judge causes, nor to do any good to men.\n64 Knowing therefore that they are not gods, fear them not.\n65 For neither can they curse kings, nor bless them.\n66 Neither do they shew signs in the heaven to the nations, nor shine as the sun, nor give light as the moon.\n67 Beasts are better than they, which can fly under a covert, and help themselves.\n68 Therefore there is no manner of appearance that they are gods: so fear them not.\n69 For as a scarecrow in a garden of cucumbers keepeth nothing, so are their gods of wood, and of silver, and laid over with gold.\n70 They are no better than a white thorn in a garden, upon which every bird sitteth. In like manner also their gods of wood, and laid over with gold, and with silver, are like to a dead body cast forth in the dark.\n71 By the purple also and the scarlet which are motheaten upon them, you shall know that they are not gods. And they themselves at last are consumed, and shall be a reproach in the country.\n72 Better therefore is the just man that hath no idols: for he shall be far from reproach.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "In what book, at what chapter and verse, does \"Having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their hearts.\" appear?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"Having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their hearts.\" appears in Ephesians, chapter 4, at verse 18 of the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the reference (book, chapter, verse) for \"All both men and women with devout mind offered gifts, that the works might be done which the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses.

And presently there rose a leprosy in his forehead before the priests, in the house of the Lord at the altar of incense.\n20 And Azarias the high priest, and all the rest of the priests looked upon him, and saw the leprosy in his forehead, and they made haste to thrust him out. Yea himself also being frightened, hasted to go out, because he had quickly felt the stroke of the Lord.\n21 And Ozias the king was a leper unto the day of his death, and he dwelt in a house apart being full of the leprosy, for which he had been cast out of the house of the Lord. And Joatham his son governed the king's house, and judged the people of the land.\n22 But the rest of the acts of Ozias first and last were written by Isaias the son of Amos, the prophet.\n23 And Ozias slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the field of the royal sepulchres, because he was a leper: and Joatham his son reigned in his stead.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "I need the text of 2 Samuel 8:7", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**Old Testament**\n*2 Samuel 8:7 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"And David took the arms of gold, which the servants of Adarezer wore, and brought them to Jerusalem.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "2 Samuel 13:18 please", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from 2 Samuel 13:18 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And she was clothed with along robe: for the king's daughters that were virgins, used such kind of garments.

Again Andrew and Philip told Jesus.\n23 But Jesus answered them, saying: The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.\n24 Amen, amen I say to you, unless the grain of wheat falling into the ground die,\n25 Itself remaineth alone. But if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.

If any man minister to me, him will my Father honour.\n27 Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour.

Who is this Son of man?\n35 Jesus therefore said to them: Yet a little while, the light is among you. Walk whilst you have the light, that the darkness overtake you not. And he that walketh in darkness, knoweth not whither he goeth.\n36 Whilst you have the light, believe in the light, that you may be the children of light.

Now it came to pass, after that Alexander the son of Philip the Macedonian, who first reigned in Greece, coming out of the land of Cethim, had overthrown Darius king of the Persians and Medes:\n2 He fought many battles, and took the strong holds of all, and slew the kings of the earth:\n3 And he went through even to the ends of the earth, and took the spoils of many nations: and the earth was quiet before him.\n4 And he gathered a power, and a very strong army: and his heart was exalted and lifted up.\n5 And he subdued countries of nations, and princes: and they became tributaries to him.\n6 And after these things, he fell down upon his bed, and knew that he should die.\n7 And he called his servants the nobles that were brought up with him from his youth: and he divided his kingdom among them, while he was yet alive.\n8 And Alexander reigned twelve years, and he died.\n9 And his servants made themselves kings every one in his place:\n10 And they all put crowns upon themselves after his death, and their sons after them many years, and evils were multiplied in the earth.\n11 And there came out of them a wicked root, Antiochus the Illustrious, the son of king Antiochus, who had been a hostage at Rome: and he reigned in the hundred and thirty-seventh year of the kingdom of the Greeks.\n12 In those days there went out of Israel wicked men, and they persuaded many, saying: Let us go, and make a covenant with the heathens that are round about us: for since we departed from them, many evils have befallen us.\n13 And the word seemed good in their eyes.\n14 And some of the people determined to do this, and went to the king: and he gave them license to do after the ordinances of the heathens.\n15 And they built a place of exercise in Jerusalem, according to the laws of the nations:\n16 And they made themselves prepuces, and departed from the holy covenant, and joined themselves to the heathens, and were sold to do evil.\n17 And the kingdom was established before Antiochus, and he had a mind to reign over the land of Egypt, that he might reign over two kingdoms.\n18 And he entered into Egypt with a great multitude, with chariots and elephants, and horsemen, and a great number of ships:\n19 And he made war against Ptolemee king of Egypt, but Ptolemee was afraid at his presence, and fled, and many were wounded unto death.\n20 And he took the strong cities in the land of Egypt: and he took the spoils of the land of Egypt.\n21 And after Antiochus had ravaged Egypt in the hundred and forty-third year, he returned and went up against Israel.\n**22 And he went up to Jerusalem with a great multitude.**\n23 And he proudly entered into the sanctuary, and took away the golden altar, and the candlestick of light, and all the vessels thereof, and the table of proposition, and the pouring vessels, and the vials, and the little mortars of gold, and the veil, and the crowns, and the golden ornament that was before the temple: and he broke them all in pieces.\n24 And he took the silver and gold, and the precious vessels: and he took the hidden treasures which he found: and when he had taken all away he departed into his own country.\n25 And he made a great slaughter of men, and spoke very proudly.\n26 And there was great mourning in Israel, and in every place where they were.\n27 And the princes, and the ancients mourned, and the virgins and the young men were made feeble, and the beauty of the women was changed.\n28 Every bridegroom took up lamentation: and the bride that sat in the marriage bed, mourned:\n29 And the land was moved for the inhabitants thereof, and all the house of Jacob was covered with confusion.\n30 And after two full years the king sent the chief collector of his tributes to the cities of Juda, and he came to Jerusalem with a great multitude.\n31 And he spoke to them peaceable words in deceit: and they believed him.\n32 And he fell upon the city suddenly, and struck it with a great slaughter, and destroyed much people in Israel.\n33 And he took the spoils of the city, and burnt it with fire, and threw down the houses thereof, and the walls thereof round about:\n34 And they took the women captive, and the children, and the cattle they possessed.\n35 And they built the city of David with a great and strong wall, and with strong towers, and made it a fortress for them:\n36 And they placed there a sinful nation, wicked men, and they fortified themselves therein: and they stored up armour, and victuals, and gathered together the spoils of Jerusalem;\n37 And laid them up there: and they became a great snare.\n38 And this was a place to lie in wait against the sanctuary, and an evil devil in Israel.\n39 And they shed innocent blood round about the sanctuary, and defiled the holy place.\n40 And the inhabitants of Jerusalem fled away by reason of them, and the city was made the habitation of strangers, and she became a stranger to her own seed, and her children forsook her.\n41 Her sanctuary was desolate like a wilderness, her festival days were turned into mourning, her sabbaths into reproach, her honours were brought to nothing.\n42 Her dishonour was increased according to her glory, and her excellency was turned into mourning.\n43 And king Antiochus wrote to all his kingdom, that all the people should be one: and every one should leave his own law.\n44 And all nations consented according to the word of king Antiochus.\n45 And many of Israel consented to his service, and they sacrificed to idols, and profaned the sabbath.\n46 And the king sent letters by the hands of messengers to Jerusalem, and to all the cities of Juda: that they should follow the law of the nations of the earth,\n47 And should forbid holocausts and sacrifices, and atonements to be made in the temple of God.\n48 And should prohibit the sabbath, and the festival days, to be celebrated.\n49 And he commanded the holy places to be profaned, and the holy people of Israel.\n50 And he commanded altars to be built, and temples, and idols, and swine's flesh to be immolated, and unclean beasts.\n51 And that they should leave their children uncircumcised, and let their souls be defiled with all uncleannesses, and abominations, to the end that they should forget the law, and should change all the justifications of God.\n52 And that whosoever would not do according to the word of king Antiochus should be put to death.\n53 According to all these words he wrote to his whole kingdom, and he appointed rulers over the people that should force them to do these things.\n54 And they commanded the cities of Juda to sacrifice.\n55 Then many of the people were gathered to them that had forsaken the law of the Lord: and they committed evils in the land:\n56 And they drove away the people of Israel into lurking holes, and into the secret places of fugitives.\n57 On the fifteenth day of the month Casleu, in the hundred and forty-fifth year, king Antiochus set up the abominable idol of desolation upon the altar of God, and they built altars throughout all the cities of Juda round about:\n58 And they burnt incense, and sacrificed at the doors of the houses, and in the streets.\n59 And they cut in pieces, and burnt with fire the books of the law of God:\n60 And every one with whom the books of the testament of the Lord were found, and whosoever observed the law of the Lord, they put to death, according to the edict of the king.\n61 Thus by their power did they deal with the people of Israel, that were found in the cities month after month.\n62 And on the five and twentieth day of the month they sacrificed upon the altar of the idol that was over against the altar of God.\n63 Now the women that circumcised their children, were slain according to the commandment of king Antiochus.\n64 And they hanged the children about their necks in all their houses: and those that had circumcised them, they put to death.\n65 And many of the people of Israel determined with themselves, that they would not eat unclean things: and they chose rather to die than to be defiled with unclean meats.\n66 And they would not break the holy law of God, and they were put to death:\n67 And there was very great wrath upon the people.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"Immediately David's

And withal consider that I am your bone, and your flesh.\n3 And his mother's brethren spoke of him to all the men of Sichem, all these words, and they inclined their hearts after Abimelech, saying: He is our brother:\n4 And they gave him seventy weight of silver out of the temple of Baalberith: wherewith he hired to himself men that were needy, and vagabonds, and they followed him.\n5 And he came to his father's house in Ephra, and slew his brethren the sons of Jerobaal, seventy men, upon one stone: and there remained only Joatham the youngest son of Jerobaal, who was hidden.\n6 And all the men of Sichem were gathered together, and all the families of the city of Mello: and they went and made Abimelech king, by the oak that stood in Sichem.\n7 This being told to Joatham, he went and stood on the top of mount Garizim: and lifting up his voice, he cried, and said: Hear me, ye men of Sichem, so may God hear you.\n8 The trees went to anoint a king over them: and they said to the olive tree: Reign thou over us.\n9 And it answered: Can I leave my fatness, which both gods and men make use of, to come to be promoted among the trees?\n10 And the trees said to the fig tree: Come thou and reign over us.\n11 And it answered them: Can I leave my sweetness, and my delicious fruits, and go to be promoted among the other trees?\n12 And the trees said to the vine: Come thou and reign over us.\n13 And it answered them: Can I forsake my wine, that cheereth God and men, and be promoted among the other trees?\n14 And all the trees said to the bramble: Come thou and reign over us.\n15 And it answered them: If indeed you mean to make me king, come ye and rest under my shadow: but if you mean it not, let fire come out from the bramble, and devour the cedars of Libanus.\n16 Now therefore if you have done well, and without sin in appointing Abimelech king over you, and have dealt well with Jerobaal, and with his house, and have made a suitable return for the benefits of him, who fought for you,\n17 And exposed his life to dangers, to deliver you from the hands of Madian,\n18 And you are now risen up against my father's house, and have killed his sons seventy men upon one stone, and have made Abimelech the son of his handmaid king over the inhabitants of Sichem, because he is your brother:\n**19 If therefore you have dealt well, and without fault with Jerobaal, and his house, rejoice ye this day in Abimelech, and may he rejoice in you.**\n20 But if unjustly: let fire come out from him, and consume the inhabitants of Sichem, and the town of Mello: and let fire come out from the men of Sichem, and from the town of Mello, and devour Abimelech.\n21 And when he had said thus he fled, and went into Bera: and dwelt there for fear of Abimelech his brother.\n22 So Abimelech reigned over Israel for three years.\n23 And the Lord sent a very evil spirit between Abimelech and the inhabitants of Sichem: who began to detest him,\n24 And to leave the crime of the murder of the seventy sons of Jerobaal, and the shedding of their blood upon Abimelech their brother, and upon the rest of the princes of the Sichemites, who aided him.\n25 And they set an ambush against him on the top of the mountains: and while they waited for his coming, they committed robberies, taking spoils of all that passed by: and it was told Abimelech.\n26 And Gaal the son of Obed came with his brethren, and went over to Sichem.

Is he not the son of Jerobaal, and hath made Zebul his servant ruler over the men of Emor the father of Sichem? Why then shall we serve him?\n29 Would to God that some man would put this people under my hand, that I might remove Abimelech out of the way. And it was said to Abimelech: Gather together the multitude of an army, and come.\n30 For Zebul the ruler of the city, hearing the words of Gaal, the son of Obed, was very angry,\n31 And sent messengers privately to Abimelech, saying: Behold Gaal the son of Obed is come into Sichem with his brethren, and endeavoureth to set the city against thee.\n32 Arise therefore in the night with the people that is with thee and he hid in the field:\n33 And betimes in the morning at sun rising set upon the city.

And Abimelech rose up, and all his army with him from the places of the ambushes.\n36 And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul: Behold a multitude cometh down from the mountains.

Who is Abimelech that we should serve him? Is not this the people which thou didst despise? Go out, and fight against him.\n39 So Gaal went out in the sight of the people of Sichem, and fought against Abimelech,\n40 Who chased and put him to flight, and drove him to the city: and many were slain of his people, even to the gate of the city:\n41 And Abimelech sat down in Ruma: but Zebul drove Gaal, and his companions out of the city, and would not suffer them to abide in it.\n42 So the day following the people went out into the field. And it was told Abimelech.\n43 And he took his army, and divided it into three companies, and laid ambushes in the fields. And seeing that the people came out of the city, he arose and set upon them,\n44 With his own company, assaulting and besieging the city: whilst the two other companies chased the enemies that were scattered about the field.\n45 And Abimelech assaulted the city all that day: and took it, and killed the inhabitants thereof, and demolished it, so that he sowed salt in it.\n46 And when they who dwelt in the tower of Sichem had heard this, they went into the temple of their god Berith where they had made a covenant with him, and from thence the place had taken its name, and it was exceeding strong.\n47 Abimelech also hearing that the men of the tower of Sichem were gathered together,\n48 Went up into mount Selmon he and all his people with him: and taking an axe, he cut down the bough of a tree, and laying it on his shoulder and carrying it, he said to his companions: What you see me do, do you out of hand.\n49 So they cut down boughs from the trees, every man as fast as he could, and followed their leader. And surrounding the fort they set it on fire: and so it came to pass that with the smoke and with the fire a thousand persons were killed, men and women together, of the inhabitants of the tower of Sichem.\n50 Then Abimelech departing from thence came to the town of Thebes, which he surrounded and besieged with his army.\n51 And there was in the midst of the city a high tower, to which both the men and the women were fled together, and all the princes of the city, and having shut and strongly barred the gate, they stood upon the battlements of the tower to defend themselves.\n52 And Abimelech coming near the tower, fought stoutly: and approaching to the gate, endeavoured to set fire to it:\n53 And behold a certain woman casting a piece of a millstone from above, dashed it against the head of Abimelech, and broke his skull.\n54 And he called hastily to his armourbearer, and said to him: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest it should be said that I was slain by a woman. He did as he was commanded, and slew him.\n55 And when he was dead, all the men of Israel that were with him, returned to their homes.\n56 And God repaid the evil, that Abimelech had done against his father, killing his seventy brethren.\n57 The Sichemites also were rewarded for what they had done, and the curse of Joatham the son of Jerobaal came upon them.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"And you have profaned it in that you say: The table of the Lord is defiled: and that which is laid thereupon is contemptible with the fire that devoureth it.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from *Malachi*, chapter *1*.\n\nWant the full chapter?

Tell me, what hast thou in thy house? And she answered: I thy handmaid have nothing in my house but a little oil, to anoint me.\n3 And he said to her: Go, borrow of all thy neighbours empty vessels not a few.\n4 And go in, and shut thy door, when thou art within, and thy sons: and pour out thereof into all those vessels: and when they are full take them away.\n5 So the woman went, and shut the door upon her, and upon her sons: they brought her the vessels, and she poured in.\n6 And when the vessels were full, she said to her son: Bring me yet a vessel. And he answered: I have no more. And the oil stood.\n7 And she came, and told the man of God. And he said: Go, sell the oil, and pay thy creditor: and thou and thy sons live of the rest.\n8 And there was a day when Eliseus passed by Sunam: now there was a great woman there, who detained him to eat bread; and as he passed often that way, he turned into her house to eat bread.\n9 And she said to her husband: I perceive that this is a holy man of God, who often passeth by us.\n10 Let us therefore make him a little chamber, and put a little bed in it for him, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick, that when he cometh to us, he may abide there.\n11 Now there was a certain day when he came and turned in to the chamber, and rested there.\n12 And he said to Giezi his servant Call this Sunamitess. And when he had called her, and she stood before him,\n13 He said to his servant: Say to her Behold thou hast diligently served us in all things, what wilt thou have me to do for thee? hast thou any business, and wilt thou that I speak to the king, or to the general of the army? And she answered: I dwell in the midst of my own people.\n14 And he said: What will she then that I do for her? And Giezi said: Do not ask, for she hath no son, and her husband is old.\n15 Then he bid him call her: And when she was called, and stood before the door.\n16 He said to her: At this time, and this same hour, if life accompany, thou shalt have a son in thy womb. But she answered: Do not, I beseech thee, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie to thy handmaid.\n17 And the woman conceived, and brought forth a son in the time, and at the same hour, that Eliseus had said.\n18 And the child grew. And on a certain day, when he went out to his father to the reapers,\n19 He said to his father: My head acheth, my head acheth. But he said to his servant: Take him, and carry him to his mother.\n20 And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, she set him on her knees until noon, and then he died.\n21 And she went up and laid him upon the bed of the man of God, and shut the door: and going out,\n22 She called her husband, and said: Send with me, I beseech thee, one of thy servants, and an ass that I may run to the man of God, and come again.\n23 And he said to her: Why dost thou go to him? to day is neither new moon nor sabbath.

And Abiathar brought the ephod to David.\n8 And David consulted the Lord, saying: Shall I pursue after these robbers, and shall I overtake them, or not? And the Lord said to him: Pursue after them: for thou shalt surely overtake them and recover the prey.\n9 So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and they came to the torrent Besor: and some being weary stayed there.\n10 But David pursued, he and four hundred men: for two hundred stayed, who being weary could not go over the torrent Besor.\n11 And they found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David: and they gave him bread to eat, and water to drink,\n12 As also a piece of a cake of figs, and two bunches of raisins. And when he had eaten them his spirit returned, and he was refreshed: for he had not eaten bread, nor drunk water three days, and three nights.\n13 And David said to him: To whom dost thou belong? or whence dost thou come? and whither art thou going? He said: I am a young man of Egypt, the servant of an Amalecite, and my master left me, because I began to be sick three days ago.\n14 For we made an invasion on the south side of Cerethi, and upon Juda, and upon the south of Caleb, and we burnt Siceleg with fire.\n15 And David said to him: Canst thou bring me to this company?

And again she said: The man is our kinsman.\n21 And Ruth said, He also charged me, that I should keep close to his reapers, till all the corn should be reaped.\n22 And her mother in law said to her: It is better for thee, my daughter, to go out to reap with his maids, lest in another man's field some one may resist thee.\n23 So she kept close to the maids of Booz: and continued to glean with them, till all the barley and the wheat were laid up in the barns.\n", "role": "assistant" } ]

Moreover all the children of Israel saw the fire coming down, and the glory of the Lord upon the house: and falling down with their faces to the ground, upon the stone pavement, they adored and praised the Lord: because he is good, because his mercy endureth for ever.\n4 And the king and all the people sacrificed victims before the Lord.\n5 And king Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty-two thousand oxen, and one hundred and twenty thousand rams: and the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.\n6 And the priests stood in their offices: and the Levites with the instruments of music of the Lord, which king David made to praise the Lord: because his mercy endureth for ever, singing the hymns of David by their ministry: and the priests sounded with trumpets before them, and all Israel stood.\n7 Solomon also sanctified the middle of the court before the temple of the Lord: for he offered there the holocausts, and the fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar, which he had made, could not hold the holocausts and the sacrifices and the fat:\n8 And Solomon kept the solemnity at that time seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the entrance of Emath to the torrent of Egypt.\n9 And he made on the eighth day a solemn assembly, because he had kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and had celebrated the solemnity seven days.\n10 So on the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent away the people to their dwellings, joyful and glad for the good that the Lord had done to David, and to Solomon, and to all Israel his people.\n11 And Solomon finished the house of the Lord, and the king's house, and all that he had designed in his heart to do, in the house of the Lord, and in his own house, and he

Or what exchange shall a man give for his soul?\n27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels: and then will he render to every man according to his works.\n28 Amen I say to you, there are some of them that stand here, that shall not taste death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and chapter does \"The just shall never be moved: but the wicked shall not dwell on the earth.\" belong to?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're asking about is in *Proverbs*, chapter *10*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*Proverbs Chapter 10*\n1 A wise son maketh the father glad: but a foolish son is the sorrow of his mother.\n2 Treasures of wickedness shall profit nothing: but justice shall deliver from death.\n3 The Lord will not afflict the soul of the just with famine, and he will disappoint the deceitful practices of the wicked.\n4 The slothful hand hath wrought poverty: but the hand of the industrious getteth riches.

Gold for vessels of gold, and silver for vessels of silver, brass for things of brass, iron for things of iron, wood for things of wood: and onyx stones, and stones like alabaster, and of divers colours, and all manner of precious stones, and marble of Paros in great abundance.\n3 Now over and above the things which I have offered into the house of my God I give of my own proper goods, gold and silver for the temple of my God, beside what things I have prepared for the holy house.\n4 Three thousand talents of gold of the gold of Ophir: and seven thousand talents of refined silver, to overlay the walls of the temple.\n5 And gold for wheresoever there is need of gold: and silver for wheresoever there is need of silver, for the works to be made by the hands of the artificers: now if any man is willing to offer, let him fill his hand to day, and offer what he pleaseth to the Lord.\n6 Then the heads of the families, and the princes of the tribes of Israel, and the captains of thousands, and of hundreds, and the overseers of the king's possessions promised,\n7 And they gave for the works of the house of the Lord, of gold, five thousand talents, and ten thousand solids: of silver ten thousand talents: and of brass eighteen thousand talents: and of iron a hundred thousand talents.\n8 And all they that had stones, gave them to the treasures of the house of the Lord, by the hand of Jahiel the Gersonite.\n9 And the people rejoiced, when they promised their offerings willingly: because they offered them to the Lord with all their heart: and David the king rejoiced also with a great joy.\n10 And he blessed the Lord before all the multitude, and he said: Blessed art thou, O Lord the God of Israel, our father from eternity to eternity.\n11 Thine, O Lord, is magnificence, and power, and glory, and victory: and to thee is praise: for all that is in heaven, and in earth, is thine: thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and thou art above all princes.\n12 Thine are riches, and thine is glory, thou hast dominion over all, in thy hand is power and might: in thy hand greatness, and the empire of all things.\n13 Now therefore our God we give thanks to thee, and we praise thy glorious name.\n14 Who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to promise thee all these things? all things are thine: and we have given thee what we received of thy hand.\n15 For we are sojourners before thee, and strangers, as were all our fathers.

we Jews wrote to you, in the trouble, and violence, that came upon us in those years, after Jason withdrew himself from the holy land, and from the kingdom.\n8 They burnt the gate, and shed innocent blood: then we prayed to the Lord, and were heard, and we offered sacrifices, and fine flour, and lighted the lamps, and set forth the loaves.\n9 And now celebrate ye the days of Scenopegia in the month of Casleu.\n10 In the year one hundred and eighty-eight, the people that is at Jerusalem, and in Judea, and the senate, and Judas, to Aristobolus, the preceptor of king Ptolemee, who is of the stock of the anointed priests, and to the Jews that are in Egypt, health and welfare.\n11 Having been delivered by God out of great dangers, we give him great thanks, forasmuch as we have been in war with such a king.\n12 For he made numbers of men swarm out of Persia that have fought against us, and the holy city.\n13 For when the leader himself was in Persia, and with him a very great army, he fell in the temple of Nanea, being deceived by the counsel of the priests of Nanea.\n14 For Antiochus, with his friends, came to the place as though he would marry her, and that he might receive great sums of money under the title of a dowry.\n15 And when the priests of Nanea had set it forth, and he with a small company had entered into the compass of the temple, they shut the temple,\n16 When Antiochus was come in: and opening a secret entrance of the temple, they cast stones and slew the leader, and them that were with him, and hewed them in pieces, and cutting off their heads they threw them forth.\n17 Blessed be God in all things, who hath delivered up the wicked.\n18 Therefore whereas we purpose to keep the purification of the temple on the five and twentieth day of the month of Casleu, we thought it necessary to signify it to you: that you also may keep the day of Scenopegia, and the day of the fire, that was given when Nehemias offered sacrifice, after the temple and the altar was built.\n19 For when our fathers were led into Persia, the priests that then were worshippers of God took privately the fire from the altar, and hid it in a valley where there was a deep pit without water, and there they kept it safe, so that the place was unknown to all men.\n20 But when many years had passed, and it pleased God that Nehemias should be sent by the king of Persia, he sent some of the posterity of those priests that had hid it, to seek for the fire: and as they told us, they found no fire, but thick water.\n21 Then he bade them draw it up, and bring it to him: and the priest Nehemias commanded the sacrifices that were laid on, to be sprinkled with the same water, both the wood, and the things that were laid upon it.\n22 And when this was done, and the time came that the sun shone out, which before was in a cloud, there was a great fire kindled, so that all wondered.\n23 And all the priests made prayer, while the sacrifice was consuming, Jonathan beginning, and the rest answering.\n24 And the prayer of Nehemias was after this manner: O Lord God, Creator of all things, dreadful and strong, just and merciful, who alone art the good king,\n25 Who alone art gracious, who alone art just, and almighty, and eternal, who deliverest Israel from all evil, who didst choose the fathers and didst sanctify them:\n26 Receive the sacrifice for all thy people Israel, and preserve thy own portion, and sanctify it.\n27 Gather together our scattered people, deliver them that are slaves to the Gentiles, and look upon them that are despised and abhorred: that the Gentiles may know that thou art our God.\n28 Punish them that oppress us, and that treat us injuriously with pride.\n29 Establish thy people in thy holy place, as Moses hath spoken.\n30 And the priests sung hymns till the sacrifice was consumed.\n**31 And when the sacrifice was consumed, Nehemias commanded the water that was left to be poured out upon the great stones.**\n32 Which being done, there was kindled a flame from them: but it was consumed by the light that shined from the altar.\n33 And when this matter became public, it was told to the king of Persia, that in the place where the priests that were led away, had hid the fire, there appeared water, with which Nehemias and they that were with him had purified the sacrifices.\n34 And the king considering, and diligently examining the matter, made a temple for it, that he might prove what had happened.\n35 And when he had proved it, he gave the priests many goods, and divers presents, and he took and distributed them to them with his own hand.\n36 And Nehemias called this place Nephthar, which is interpreted purification.

Israel from the land of the north, and out of all the lands, to which I had cast them forth: and they shall dwell in their own land.\n9 To the prophets: My heart is broken within me, all my bones

from this time they shall give it to the works of the house.\n42 Moreover the five thousand sicles of silver which they received from the account of the holy places, every year, shall also belong to

For the building also of the walls of Jerusalem, and the fortifying thereof round about, the charges shall be given out of the king's account, as also for the building of the walls in Judea.\n46 Now when Jonathan, and the people heard these words, they gave no credit to them nor received them: because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel, for he had afflicted them exceedingly.\n47 And their inclinations were towards Alexander, because he had been the chief promoter of peace in their regard, and him they always helped.\n48 And king Alexander gathered together a great army, and moved his camp near to Demetrius.\n49 And the two kings joined battle, and the army of Demetrius fled away, and Alexander pursued after him, and pressed them close.\n50 And the battle was hard fought till the sun went down: and Demetrius was slain that day.\n51 And Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemee king of Egypt, with words to this effect, saying:\n52 Forasmuch as I am returned into my kingdom, and am set in the throne of my ancestors and have gotten the dominion, and have overthrown Demetrius, and possessed our country,\n53 And have joined battle with him, and both he and his army have been destroyed by us, and we are placed in the throne of his kingdom:\n54 Now therefore let us make friendship one with another: and give me now thy daughter to wife, and I will be thy son in law, and I will give both thee and her gifts worthy of thee.\n55 And king Ptolemee answered, saying: Happy is the day wherein thou didst return to the land of thy fathers, and sattest in the throne of their kingdom.\n56 And now I will do to thee as thou hast written: but meet me at Ptolemais, that we may see one another, and I may give her to thee as thou hast said.\n57 So Ptolemee went out of Egypt, with Cleopatra his daughter, and he came to Ptolemais in the hundred and sixty-second year.\n58 And king Alexander met him, and he gave him his daughter Cleopatra: and he celebrated her marriage at Ptolemais, with great glory, after the manner of kings.\n59 And king Alexander wrote to Jonathan, that he should come and meet him.\n60 And he went honourably to Ptolemais, and he met there the two kings, and he gave them much silver, and gold, and presents: and he found favour in their sight.\n61 And some pestilent men of Israel, men of a wicked life, assembled themselves against him to accuse him: and the king gave no heed to them.\n62 And he commanded that Jonathan's garments should be taken off, and that he should be clothed with purple: and they did so. And the king made him sit by himself.\n63 And he said to his princes: Go out with him into the midst of the city, and make proclamation, that no man complain against him of any matter, and that no man trouble him for any manner of cause.\n64 So when his accusers saw his glory proclaimed, and him clothed with purple, they all fled away.\n65 And the king magnified him, and enrolled him amongst his chief friends, and made him governor and partaker of his dominion.\n66 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with peace and joy.\n67 In the year one hundred and sixty-five Demetrius the son of Demetrius came from Crete into the land of his fathers.\n68 And king Alexander heard of it, and was much troubled, and returned to Antioch.\n69 And king Demetrius made Apollonius his general, who was governor of Celesyria: and he gathered together a great army, and came to Jamnia: and he sent to Jonathan the high priest,\n70 Saying: Thou alone standest against us, and I am laughed at, and reproached, because thou shewest thy power against us in the mountains.\n71 Now therefore if thou trustest in thy forces, come down to us into the plain, and there let us try one another: for with me is the strength of war.\n72 Ask, and learn who I am, and the rest that help me, who also say that your foot cannot stand before our face, for thy fathers have twice been put to flight in their own land:\n73 And now how wilt thou be able to abide the horsemen, and so great an army in the plain, where there is no stone, nor rock, nor place to flee to?\n74 Now when Jonathan heard the words of Apollonius, he was moved in his mind: and he chose ten thousand men, and went out of Jerusalem, and Simon his brother met him to help him.\n75 And they pitched their tents near Joppe, but they shut him out of the city: because a garrison of Apollonius was in Joppe, and he laid siege to it.\n76 And they that were in the city being affrighted, opened the gates to him: so Jonathan took Joppe.\n77 And Apollonius heard of it, and he took three thousand horsemen, and a great army.\n78 And he went to Azotus as one that was making a journey, and immediately he went forth into the plain: because he had a great number of horsemen, and he trusted in them. And Jonathan followed after him to Azotus, and they joined battle.\n79 And Apollonius left privately in the camp a thousand horsemen behind them.\n80 And Jonathan knew that there was an ambush behind him, and they surrounded his army, and cast darts at the people from morning till evening.\n81 But the people stood still, as Jonathan had commanded them: and so their horses were fatigued.\n82 Then Simon drew forth his army, and attacked the legion: for the horsemen were wearied: and they were discomfited by him, and fled.\n83 And they that were scattered about the plain, fled into Azotus, and went into Bethdagon their idol's temple, there to save themselves.\n84 But Jonathan set fire to Azotus, and the cities that were around it, and took the spoils of them, and the temple of Dagon: and all them that were fled into it, he burnt with fire.\n85 So they that were slain by the sword, with them that were burnt, were almost eight thousand men.\n86 And Jonathan removed his army from thence, and camped against Ascalon: and they went out of the city to meet him with great honour.\n87 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with his people, having many spoils.\n88 And it came to pass: When Alexander the king heard these words, that he honoured Jonathan yet more.\n89 And he sent him a buckle of gold, as the custom is, to be given to such as are of the royal blood.

those days Jonathan gathered together them that were in Judea, to take the castle that was in Jerusalem: and they made many engines of war against it.\n21 Then some wicked men that hated their own nation, went away to king Demetrius, and told him that Jonathan was besieging the castle.\n22 And when he heard it, he was angry: and forthwith he came to Ptolemais, and wrote to Jonathan, that he should not besiege the castle, but should come to him in haste, and speak to him.\n23 But when Jonathan heard this, he bade them besiege it still: and he chose some of the ancients of Israel, and of the priests, and put himself in danger.\n24 And he took gold, and silver, and raiment, and many other presents, and went to the king to Ptolemais, and he found favour in his sight.\n25 And certain wicked men of his nation made complaints against him.\n26 And the king treated him as his predecessor had done before: and he exalted him in the sight of all his friends.\n27 And he confirmed him in the high priesthood, and all the honours he had before, and he made him the chief of his friends.\n28 And Jonathan requested of the king that he would make Judea free from tribute, and the three governments, and Samaria, and the confines thereof: and he promised him three hundred talents.\n29 And the king consented: and he wrote letters to Jonathan of all these things to this effect.\n30 King Demetrius to his brother Jonathan, and to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n31 We send you here a copy of the letter, which we have written to Lasthenes our parent concerning you, that you might know it.\n32 King Demetrius to Lasthenes his parent, greeting.\n33 We have determined to do good to the nation of the Jews who are our friends, and keep the things that are just with us, for their good will which they bear towards us.\n34 We have ratified therefore unto them all the borders of Judea, and the three cities, Apherema, Lydda, and Ramatha, which are added to Judea, out of Samaria, and all their confines, to be set apart to all them that sacrifice in Jerusalem, instead of the payments which the king received of them every year, and for the fruits of the land, and of the trees.\n35 And as for other things that belonged to us of the tithes, and of the tributes, from this time we discharge them of them: the saltpans also, and the crowns that were presented to us.\n36 We give all to them, and nothing hereof shall be revoked from this time forth and for ever.\n37 Now therefore see that thou make a copy of these things, and let it be given to Jonathan, and set upon the holy mountain, in a conspicuous place.\n38 And king Demetrius seeing that the land was quiet before him, and nothing resisted him, sent away all his forces, every man to his own place, except the foreign army, which he had drawn together from the islands of the nations: so all the troops of his fathers hated him.\n39 Now there was one Tryphon who had been of Alexander's party before: who seeing that all the army murmured against Demetrius, went to Emalchuel the Arabian, who brought up Antiochus the son of Alexander.\n40 And he pressed him much to deliver him to him, that he might be king in his father's place: and he told him all that Demetrius had done, and how his soldiers hated him. And he remained there many days.\n41 And Jonathan sent to king Demetrius, desiring that he would cast out them that were in the castle in Jerusalem, and those that were in the strong holds: because they fought against Israel.\n42 And Demetrius sent to Jonathan, saying: I will not only do this for thee, and for thy people, but I will greatly honour thee, and thy nation, when opportunity shall serve.\n43 Now therefore thou shalt do well if thou send me men to help me: for all my army is gone from me.\n44 And Jonathan sent him three thousand valiant men to Antioch: and they came to the king, and the king was very glad of their coming.\n45 And they that were of the city assembled themselves together, to the number of a hundred and twenty thousand men, and would have killed the king.\n46 And the king fled into the palace, and they of the city kept the passages of the city, and began to fight.\n47 And the king called the Jews to his assistance: and they came to him all at once, and they all dispersed themselves through the city.\n48 And they slew in that day a hundred thousand men, and they set fire to the city, and got many spoils that day, and delivered the king.\n49 And they that were of the city saw that the Jews had got the city as they would: and they were discouraged in their minds, and cried to the king, making supplication, and saying:\n50 Grant us peace, and let the Jews cease from assaulting us, and the city.\n51 And they threw down their arms, and made peace, and the Jews were glorified in the sight of the king, and in the sight of all that were in his realm, and were renowned throughout the kingdom, and returned to Jerusalem with many spoils.\n52 So king Demetrius sat in the throne of his kingdom: and the land was quiet before him.\n53 And he falsified all whatsoever he had said, and alienated himself from Jonathan, and did not reward him according to the benefits he had received from him, but gave him great trouble.\n54 And after this Tryphon returned, and with him Antiochus the young boy, who was made king, and put on the diadem.\n55 And there assembled unto him all the hands which Demetrius had sent away, and they fought against Demetrius, who turned his back and fled.\n56 And Tryphon took the elephants, and made himself master of Antioch.\n57 And young Antiochus wrote to Jonathan, saying: I confirm thee in the high priesthood, and I appoint thee ruler over the four cities, and to be one of the king's friends.\n58 And he sent him vessels of gold for his service, and he gave him leave to drink in gold, and to be clothed in purple, and to wear a golden buckle:\n59 And he made his brother Simon governor from the borders of Tyre even to the confines of Egypt.\n60 Then Jonathan went forth and passed through the cities beyond the river: and all the forces of Syria gathered themselves to him to help him, and he came to Ascalon, and they met him honourably out of the city.\n61 And he went from thence to Gaza: and they that were in Gaza shut him out: and he besieged it, and burnt all the suburbs round about, and took the spoils.\n62 And the men of Gaza made supplication to Jonathan, and he gave them the right hand: and he took their sons for hostages, and sent them to Jerusalem: and he went through the country as far as Damascus.\n63 And Jonathan heard that the generals of Demetrius were come treacherously to Cades, which is in Galilee, with a great army, purposing to remove him from the affairs of the kingdom:\n64 And he went against them: but left his brother Simon in the country.\n65 And Simon encamped against Bethsura, and assaulted it many days, and shut them up.\n66 And they desired him to make peace, and he granted it them: and he cast them out from thence, and took the city, and placed a garrison in it.\n67 And Jonathan, and his army encamped by the water of Genesar, and before it was light they were ready in the plain of Asor.\n68 And behold the army of the strangers met him in the plain, and they laid an ambush for him in the mountains: but he went out against them.\n69 And they that lay in ambush arose out of their places, and joined battle.\n70 And all that were on Jonathan's side fled, and none was left of them, but Mathathias the son of Absalom, and Judas the son of Calphi, chief captain of the army.\n71 And Jonathan rent his garments, and cast earth upon his head, and prayed.\n72 And Jonathan turned again to them to battle, and he put them to flight, and they fought.\n73 And they of his part that fled saw this, and they turned again to him, and they all with him pursued the enemies even to Cades to their own camp, and they came even thither.\n74 And there fell of the aliens in that day three thousand men: and Jonathan returned to Jerusalem.\n",

Ramatha, and came and said to Jonathan: What have I done? what is my iniquity, and what is my sin against thy father, that he seeketh my life?\n2 And he said to him: God forbid, thou shalt not die: for my father will do nothing great or little, without first telling me: hath then my father hid this word only from me? no, this shall not be.\n3 And he swore again to David. And David said: Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thy sight, and he will say: Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved. But truly as the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, there is but one step (as I may say) between me and death.\n4 And Jonathan said to David: Whatsoever thy soul shall say to me, I will do for thee.\n5 And David said to Jonathan: Behold to morrow is the new moon, and I according to custom am wont to sit beside the king to eat: let me go then that I may be hid in the field till the evening of the third day.\n6 If thy father look and inquire for me, thou shalt answer him: David asked me that he might run to Bethlehem his own city: because there are solemn sacrifices there for all his tribe.\n7 If he shall say, It is well: thy servant shall have peace: but if he be angry, know that his malice is come to its height.\n8 Deal mercifully then with thy servant: for thou hast brought me thy servant into a covenant of the Lord with thee. But if there be any iniquity in me, do thou kill me, and bring me not in to thy father.\n9 And Jonathan said: Far be this from thee: for if I should certainly know that evil is determined by my father against thee, I could do no otherwise than tell thee.\n10 And David answered Jonathan: Who shall bring me word, if thy father should answer thee harshly concerning me?\n11 And Jonathan said to David: Come and let us go out into the field. And when they were both of them gone out into the field,\n12 Jonathan said to David: O Lord God of Israel, if I shall discover my father's mind, to morrow or the day after, and there be any thing good for David, and I send not immediately to thee, and make it known to thee,\n13 May the Lord do so and so to Jonathan and add still more. But if my father shall continue in malice against thee, I will discover it to thy ear, and will send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace, and the Lord be with thee, as he hath been with my father.\n14 And if I live, thou shalt shew me the kindness of the Lord: but if I die,\n15 Thou shalt not take away thy kindness from my house for ever, when the Lord shall have rooted out the enemies of David, every one of them from the earth, may he take away Jonathan from his house, and may the Lord require it at the hands of David's enemies.\n**16 Jonathan therefore made a covenant with the house of David: and the Lord required it at the hands of David's enemies.**\n17 And Jonathan swore again to David, because he loved him: for he loved him as his own soul.\n18 And Jonathan said to him: To morrow is the new moon, and thou wilt be missed:\n19 For thy seat will be empty till after to morrow. So thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place, where thou must be hid on the day when it is lawful to work, and thou shalt remain beside the stone, which is called Ezel.\n20 And I will shoot three arrows near it, and will shoot as if I were exercising myself at a mark.\n21 And I will send a boy, saying to him: Go and fetch me the arrows.\n22 If I shall say to the boy: Behold the arrows are on this side of thee, take them up: come thou to me, because, there is peace to thee, and there is no evil, as the Lord liveth. But if I shall speak thus to the boy: Behold the arrows are beyond thee: go in peace, for the Lord hath sent thee away.\n23 And concerning the word which I and thou have spoken, the Lord be between thee and me for ever.\n24 So David was hid in the field, and the new moon came, and the king sat down to eat bread.\n25 And when the king sat down upon his chair (according to custom) which was beside the wall, Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's side, and David's place appeared empty.\n26 And Saul said nothing that day, for he thought it might have happened to him, that he was not clean, nor purified.\n27 And when the second day after the new moon was come, David's place appeared empty again. And Saul said to Jonathan his son: Why cometh not the son of Isai to meat neither yesterday nor to day?\n28 And Jonathan answered Saul: He asked leave of me earnestly to go to Bethlehem,\n29 And he said: Let me go, for there is a solemn sacrifice in the city, one of my brethren hath sent for me: and now if I have found favour in thy eyes, I will go quickly, and see my brethren. For this cause he came not to the king's table.\n30 Then Saul being angry against Jonathan said to him: Thou son of a woman that is the ravisher of a man, do I not know that thou lovest the son of Isai to thy own confusion and to the confusion of thy shameless mother?\n31 For as long as the son of Isai liveth upon earth, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Therefore now presently send, and fetch him to me: for he is the son of death.\n32 And Jonathan answering Saul his father, said: Why shall he die: what hath he done?\n33 And Saul caught up a spear to strike him. And Jonathan understood that it was determined by his father to kill David.\n34 So Jonathan rose from the table in great anger, and did not eat bread on the second day after the new moon. For he was grieved for David, because his father had put him to confusion.\n35 And when the morning came, Jonathan went into the field, according to the appointment with David, and a little boy with him.\n36 And he said to his boy: Go, and fetch me the arrows which I shoot. And when the boy ran, he shot another arrow beyond the boy.\n37 The boy therefore came to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot: and Jonathan cried after the boy, and said: Behold the arrow is there further beyond thee.\n38 And Jonathan cried again after the boy, saying: Make haste speedily, stand not. And Jonathan's boy gathered up the arrows, and brought them to his master:\n39 And he knew not at all what was doing: for only Jonathan and David knew the matter.\n40 Jonathan therefore gave his arms to the boy, and said to him: Go, and carry them into the city.\n41 And when the boy was gone, David rose out of his place, which was towards the south, and falling on his face to the ground, adored thrice: and kissing one another, they wept together, but David more.\n42 And Jonathan said to David: Go in peace: and let all stand that we have sworn both of us in the name of the Lord, saying: The Lord be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed for ever.\n43 And David arose, and departed: and Jonathan went into the city.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"And Josaphat his son reigned in his stead, and grew strong against Israel.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from *2 Chronicles*, chapter *17*.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\n*2 Chronicles Chapter 17*\n**1 And Josaphat his son reigned in his stead, and grew strong against Israel.**\n2 And he placed numbers of soldiers in all the fortified cities of Juda.

And David rose and went down into the wilderness of Pharan.\n2 Now there was a certain man in the wilderness of Maon, and his possessions were in Carmel, and the man was very great: and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and it happened that he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.\n3 Now the name of the man was Nabal: and the name of his wife was Abigail. And she was a prudent and very comely woman, but her husband was churlish, and very bad and ill natured: and he was of the house of Caleb.\n4 And when David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep,\n5 He sent ten young men, and said to them: Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and salute him in my name with peace.\n6 And you shall say: Peace be to my brethren, and to thee, and peace to thy house, and peace to all that thou hast.\n7 I heard that thy shepherds that were with us in the desert were shearing: we never molested them, neither was there ought missing to them of the flock at any time, all the while they were with us in Carmel.\n8 Ask thy servants, and they will tell thee. Now therefore let thy servants find favour in thy eyes: for we are come in a good day, whatsoever thy hand shall find give to thy servants, and to thy son David.\n9 And when David's servants came, they spoke to Nabal all these words in David's name: and then held their peace.\n10 But Nabal answering the servants of David, said: Who is David? and what is the son of Isai? servants are multiplied now a days who flee from their masters.\n11 Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and the flesh of my cattle, which I have killed for my shearers, and give to men whom I know not whence they are?\n12 So the servants of David went back their way, and returning came and told him all the words that he said.\n13 Then David said to his young men: Let every man gird on his sword. And they girded on every man his sword. And David also girded on his sword: and there followed David about four hundred men: and two hundred remained with the baggage.\n14 But one of the servants told Abigail the wife of Nabal, saying: Behold David sent messengers out of the wilderness, to salute our master: and he rejected them.\n**15 These men were very good to us, and gave us no trouble: neither did we ever lose any thing all the time that we conversed with them in the desert.**\n16 They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.\n17 Wherefore consider, and think what thou hast to do: for evil is determined against thy husband, and against thy house, and he is a son of Belial, so that no man can speak to him.\n18 Then Abigail made haste and took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of dry figs, and laid them upon asses:\n19 And she said to her servants: Go before me: behold I will follow after you: but she told not her husband Nabal.\n20 And when she had gotten upon an ass, and was coming down to the foot of the mountain, David and his men came down over against her, and she met them.\n21 And David said: Truly in vain have I kept all that belonged to this man in the wilderness, and nothing was lost of all that pertained unto him: and he hath returned me evil for good.\n22 May God do so and so, and add more to the foes of David, if I leave of all that belong to him till the morning, any that pisseth against the wall.\n23 And when Abigail saw David she made haste and lighted off the ass, and fell before David, on her face, and adored upon the ground.\n24 And she fell at his feet, and said: Upon me let this iniquity be, my lord: let thy handmaid speak, I beseech thee, in thy ears: and hear the words of thy servant.\n25 Let not my lord the king, I pray, regard this naughty man Nabal: for according to his name, he is a fool, and folly is with him: but I thy handmaid did not see thy servants, my lord, whom thou sentest.\n26 Now therefore, my lord, the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, who hath withholden thee from coming to blood, and hath saved thy hand to thee: and now let thy enemies be as Nabal, and all they that seek evil to my lord.\n27 Wherefore receive this blessing, which thy handmaid hath brought to thee, my lord: and give it to the young men that follow thee, my lord.\n28 Forgive the iniquity of thy handmaid: for the Lord will surely make for my lord a faithful house, because thou, my lord, fightest the battles of the Lord: let not evil therefore be found in thee all the days of thy life.\n29 For if a man at any time shall rise, and persecute thee, and seek thy life, the soul of my lord shall be kept, as in the bundle of the living, with the Lord thy God: but the souls of thy enemies shall be whirled, as with the violence and whirling of a sling.\n30 And when the Lord shall have done to thee, my lord, all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have made thee prince over Israel,\n31 This shall not be an occasion of grief to thee, and a scruple of heart to my lord, that thou hast shed innocent blood, or hast revenged thyself: and when the Lord shall have done well by my lord, thou shalt remember thy handmaid.\n32 And David said to Abigail: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me, and blessed be thy speech:\n33 And blessed be thou, who hast kept me to day, from coming to blood, and revenging me with my own hand.\n34 Otherwise as the Lord liveth the God of Israel, who hath withholden me from doing thee any evil: if thou hadst not quickly come to meet me, there had not been left to Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.\n35 And David received at her hand all that she had brought him, and said to her: Go in peace into thy house, behold I have heard thy voice, and have honoured thy face.\n36 And Abigail came to Nabal: and behold he had a feast in his house, like the feast of a king, and Nabal's heart was merry: for he was very drunk: and she told him nothing less or more until morning.\n37 But early in the morning when Nabal had digested his wine, his wife told him these words, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.\n38 And after ten days had passed, the Lord struck Nabal, and he died.\n39 And when David had heard that Nabal was dead, he said: Blessed be the Lord, who hath judged the cause of my reproach at the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil, and the Lord hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his head.

For he sent to me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver and gold: and I said not nay.\n8 And all the ancients, and all the people said to him: Hearken not to him, nor consent to him.\n9 Wherefore he answered the messengers of Benadad: Tell my lord the king: All that thou didst send for to me thy servant at first, I will do: but this thing I cannot do.\n10 And the messengers returning brought him word. And he sent again and said: Such and such things may the gods do to me, and more may they add, if the dust of Samaria shall suffice for handfuls for all the people that follow me.\n11 And the king of Israel answering, said: Tell him: Let not the girded boast himself as the ungirded.\n12 And it came to pass, when Benadad heard this word, that he and the kings were drinking in pavilions, and he said to his servants: Beset the city. And they beset it.\n13 And behold a prophet coming to Achab king of Israel, said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Hast thou seen all this exceeding great multitude, behold I will deliver them into thy hand this day: that thou mayest know that I am the Lord.\n14 And Achab said: By whom? And he said to him: Thus saith the Lord: By the servants of the princes of the provinces. And he said: Who shall begin to fight? And he said: Thou.\n15 So he mustered the servants of the princes of the provinces, and he found the number of two hundred and thirty-two: and he mustered after them the people, all the children of Israel, seven thousand:\n16 And they went out at noon. But Benadad was drinking himself drunk in his pavilion, and the two and thirty kings with him, who were come to help him.\n17 And the servants of the princes of the provinces went out first. And Benadad sent. And they told him, saying: There are men come out of Samaria.\n18 And he said: Whether they come for peace, take them alive: or whether they come to fight, take them alive.\n19 So the servants of the princes of the provinces went out, and the rest of the army followed:\n20 And every one slew the man that came against him: and the Syrians fled, and Israel pursued after them. And Benadad king of Syria fled away on horseback with his horsemen.\n21 But the king of Israel going out overthrew the horses and chariots, and slew the Syrians with a great slaughter.\n22 (And a prophet coming to the king of Israel, said to him: Go, and strengthen thyself, and know, and see what thou dost: for the next year the king of Syria will come up against thee.)\n23 But the servants of the king of Syria said to him: Their gods are gods of the hills, therefore they have overcome us: but it is better that we should fight against them in the plains, and we shall overcome them.\n24 Do thou therefore this thing: Remove all the kings from thy army, and put captains in their stead:\n25 And make up the number of soldiers that have been slain of thine, and horses according to the former horses, and chariots according to the chariots which thou hadst before: and we will fight against them in the plains, and thou shalt see that we shall overcome them.

And he said: If he be yet alive he is my brother.\n33 The men took this for a sign: and in haste caught the word out of his mouth, and said: Thy brother Benadad. And he said to them: Go, and bring him to me. Then Benadad came out to him, and he lifted him up into his chariot.\n34 And he said to him: The cities which my father took from thy father, I will restore: and do thou make thee streets in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria, and having made a league I will depart from thee. So he made a league with him, and let him go.\n35 Then a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his companion in the word of the Lord: Strike me.

And when the people was gone,\n6 King Roboam took counsel with the old men, that stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, and he said: What counsel do you give me, that I may answer this people?\n7 They said to him: If thou wilt yield to this people to day, and condescend to them, and grant their petition, and wilt speak gentle words to them, they will be thy servants always.\n8 But he left the counsel of the old men, which they had given him, and consulted with the young men, that had been brought up with him, and stood before him.\n**9 And he said to them: What counsel do you give me, that I may answer this people, who have said to me: Make the yoke which thy father put upon us lighter?**\n10 And the young men that had been brought up with him, said: Thus shalt thou speak to this people, who have spoken to thee, saying: Thy father made our yoke heavy, do thou ease us. Thou shalt say to them: My little finger is thicker than the back of my father.\n11 And now my father put a, heavy yoke upon you, but I will add to your yoke: my father beat you with whips, but I will beat you with scorpions.\n12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Roboam the third day, as the king had appointed, saying: Come to me again the third day.\n13 And the king answered the people roughly, leaving the counsel of the old men, which they had given him,\n14 And he spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying: My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to your yoke: my father beat you with whips, but I will beat you with scorpions.\n15 And the king condescended not to the people: for the Lord was turned away from him, to make good his word, which he had spoken in the hand of Ahias the Silonite, to Jeroboam the son of Nabat.\n16 Then the people seeing that the king would not hearken to them, answered him, saying: What portion have we in David? or what inheritance in the son of Isai? Go home to thy dwellings, O Israel, now David look to thy own house. So Israel departed to their dwellings.\n17 But as for all the children of Israel that dwelt in the cities of Juda, Roboam reigned over them.\n18 Then king Roboam sent Aduram, who was over the tribute: and all Israel stoned him, and he died. Wherefore king Roboam made haste to get him up into his chariot, and he fled to Jerusalem:\n19 And Israel revolted from the house of David, unto this day.\n20 And it came to pass when all Israel heard that Jeroboam was come again, that they gathered an assembly, and sent and called him, and made him king over all Israel, and there was none that followed the house of David but the tribe of Juda only.\n21 And Roboam came to Jerusalem, and gathered together all the house of Juda, and the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred four-score thousand chosen men for war, to fight against the house of Israel and to bring the kingdom again under Roboam the son of Solomon.\n22 But the word of the Lord came to Semeias the man of God, saying:\n23 Speak to Roboam the son of Solomon, the king of Juda, and to all the house of Juda, and Benjamin, and the rest of the people, saying:\n24 Thus saith the Lord: You shall not go up nor fight against your brethren the children of Israel: let every man return to his house, for this thing is from me. They hearkened to the word of the Lord, and returned from their journey, as the Lord had commanded them.\n25 And Jeroboam built Sichem in mount Ephraim, and dwelt there, and going out from thence he built Phanuel.\n26 And Jeroboam said in his heart: Now shall the kingdom return to the house of David,\n27 If this people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the Lord at Jerusalem: and the heart of this people will turn to their lord Roboam the king of Juda, and they will kill me, and return to him.\n28 And finding out a device he made two golden calves, and said to them: Go ye up no more to Jerusalem: Behold thy gods, O Israel, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt.\n29 And he set the one in Bethel, and the other in Dan:\n30 And this thing became an occasion of sin: for the people went to adore the calf as far as Dan.\n31 And he made temples in the high places, and priests of the lowest of the people, who were not of the sons of Levi.\n32 And he appointed a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, after the manner of the feast that was celebrated in Juda. And going up to the altar, he did in like manner in Bethel, to sacrifice to the calves, which he had made: and he placed in Bethel priests of the high places, which he had made.\n33 And he went up to the altar, which he had built in Bethel, on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, which he had devised of his own heart: and he ordained a feast to the children of Israel, and went upon the altar to burn incense.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where does it say \"And Mathathias and his friends went round about, and they threw down the altars:\", in the bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"And Mathathias and his friends went round about, and they threw down the altars:\" is written in 1 Maccabees 2:45, within the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"And going into the gate of the city they spoke to the people:\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, the book of Genesis, chapter 34, verse 20 states: \"And going into the gate of the city they spoke to the people:\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where exactly in the Bible is \"My people have consulted their stocks, and their staff hath declared unto them: for the spirit of fornication hath deceived them, and they have committed fornication against their God.\" written?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, the book of Hosea, chapter 4, verse 12 states: \"My people have consulted their stocks, and their staff hath declared unto them: for the spirit of fornication hath deceived them, and they have committed fornication against their God.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Book: Job\nChapter: 2\nVerse: 5", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Job 2:5 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"But put forth thy hand, and touch his bone and his flesh, and then thou shalt see that he will bless thee to thy face.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the bible does it say \"And again he said: By this you shall know that the Lord the living God is in the midst of you, and that he shall destroy before your sight the Chanaanite and the Hethite, the Hevite and the Pherezite, the Gergesite also and the Jebusite, and the Amorrhite.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"And again he said: By this you shall know that the Lord the living God is in the midst of you, and that he shall destroy before your sight the Chanaanite and the Hethite, the Hevite and the Pherezite, the Gergesite also and the Jebusite, and the Amorrhite.\" is written in Joshua 3:10, within the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book is the quote \"Do you not yet understand, neither do you remember the five loaves among five thousand men, and how many baskets you took up?\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The text \"Do you not yet understand, neither do you remember the five loaves among five thousand men, and how many baskets you took up?\" is part of Matthew chapter 16, verse 9 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the reference (book, chapter, verse) for \"As clouds, and wind, when no rain followeth, so is the man that boasteth, and doth not fulfill his promises.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of Proverbs, chapter 25, verse 14 of the Old Testament, you'll find \"As clouds, and wind, when no rain followeth, so is the man that boasteth, and doth not fulfill his promises.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book, chapter, and verse for \"Hast thou seen a man hasty to speak? folly is rather to be looked for, than his amendment.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The quote \"Hast thou seen a man hasty to speak? folly is rather to be looked for, than his amendment.\" is from Proverbs 29:20 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you provide the book, chapter, and verse for \"And thou hast made my enemies turn their back upon me, and hast destroyed them that hated me.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of Psalm, chapter 17, verse 41 of the Old Testament, you'll find \"And thou hast made my enemies turn their back upon me, and hast destroyed them that hated me.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"Why turnest thou face away? and forgettest our want and our trouble?\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in *Psalm*, chapter *43*.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\n*Psalm Chapter 43*\n1 Unto the end, for the sons of Core, to give understanding.\n2 We have heard, O God, with our ears: our fathers have declared to us, The work, thou hast wrought in their days, and in the days of old.\n3 Thy hand destroyed the Gentiles, and thou plantedst them: thou didst afflict the people and cast them out.\n4 For they got not the possession of the land by their own sword: neither did their own arm save them.

*1 Maccabees*, chapter *5*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*1 Maccabees Chapter 5*\n1 Now it came to pass, when the nations round about heard that the altar and the sanctuary were built up as before, that they were exceeding angry.\n2 And they thought to destroy the generation of Jacob that were among them, and they began to kill some of the people, and to persecute them.\n3 Then Judas fought against the children of Esau in Idumea, and them that were in Acrabathane: because they beset the Israelites around about, and he made a great slaughter of them.\n4 And he remembered the malice of the children of Bean: who were a snare and a stumblingblock to the people, by lying in wait for them in the way.\n5 And they were shut up by him in towers, and he set upon them, and devoted them to utter destruction, and burnt their towers with fire, and all that were in them.\n6 Then he passed over to the children of Ammon, where he found a mighty power, and much people, and Timotheus was their captain:\n7 And he fought many battles with them, and they were discomfited in their sight, and he smote them:\n8 And he took the city of Gazer and her towns, and returned into Judea.\n9 And the Gentiles that were in Galaad, assembled themselves together against the Israelites that were in their quarters to destroy them: and they fled into the fortress of Datheman.\n10 And they sent letters to Judas and his brethren, saying, The heathens that are round about are gathered together against us, to destroy us:\n11 And they are preparing to come, and to take the fortress into which we are fled: and Timotheus is the captain of their host.\n12 Now therefore come, and deliver us out of their hands, for many of us are slain.\n13 And all our brethren that were in the places of Tubin, are killed: and they have carried away their wives, and their children, captives, and taken their spoils, and they have slain there almost a thousand men.\n14 And while they were yet reading these letters, behold there came other messengers out of Galilee with their garments rent, who related according to these words:\n15 Saying, that they of Ptolemais, and of Tyre, and of Sidon, were assembled against them, and all Galilee is filled with strangers, in order to consume us.\n16 Now when Judas and all the people heard these words, a great assembly met together to consider what they should do for their brethren that were in trouble, and were assaulted by them.\n17 And Judas said to Simon his brother: Choose thee men, and go, and deliver thy brethren in Galilee: and I, and my brother Jonathan will go into the country of Galaad.\n18 And he left Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias captains of the people with the remnant of the army in Judea to keep it:\n19 And he commanded them, saying: Take ye the charge of this people: but make no war against the heathens, till we return.\n20 Now three thousand men were allotted to Simon, to go into Galilee: and eight thousand to Judas to go into the land of Galaad.\n21 And Simon went into Galilee, and fought many battles with the heathens: and the heathens were discomfited before his face, and he pursued them even to the gate of Ptolemais.\n22 And there fell of the heathens almost three thousand men, and he took the spoils of them,\n23 And he took with him those that were in Galilee and in Arbatis with their wives, and children, and all that they had, and he brought them into Judea with great joy.\n24 And Judas Machabeus, and Jonathan his brother passed over the Jordan, and went three days' journey through the desert.\n25 And the Nabutheans met them, and received them in a peaceable manner, and told them all that happened to their brethren in the land of Galaad,\n26 And that many of them were shut up in Barasa, and in Bosor, and in Alima, and in Casphor, and in Mageth, and in Carnaim: all these strong and great cities.\n27 Yea, and that they were kept shut up in the rest of the cities of Galaad, and that they had appointed to bring their army on the morrow near to these cities, and to take them and to destroy them all in one day.\n28 Then Judas and his army suddenly turned their march into the desert, to Bosor, and took the city: and he slew every male by the edge of the sword, and took all their spoils, and burnt it with fire.\n29 And they removed from thence by night, and went till they came to the fortress.\n30 And it came to pass that early in the morning, when they lifted up their eyes, behold there were people without number, carrying ladders and engines to take the fortress, and assault them.\n31 And Judas saw that the fight was begun, and the cry of the battle went up to heaven like a trumpet, and a great cry out of the city:\n32 And he said to his host: Fight ye to day for your brethren.\n33 And he came with three companies behind them, and they sounded their trumpets, and cried out in prayer.\n34 And the host of Timotheus understood that it was Machabeus, and they fled away before his face: and they made a great slaughter of them: and there fell of them in that day almost eight thousand men.\n35 And Judas turned aside to Maspha, and assaulted, and took it, and he slew every male thereof, and took the spoils thereof, and burnt it with fire.\n36 From thence he marched, and took Casbon, and Mageth, and Bosor, and the rest of the cities of Galaad.\n37 But after this Timotheus gathered another army, and camped over against Raphon beyond the torrent.\n38 And Judas sent men to view the army: and they brought him word, saying: All the nations, that are round about us, are assembled unto him an army exceeding great:\n39 And they have hired the Arabians to help them, and they have pitched their tents beyond the torrent, ready to come to fight against thee. And Judas went to meet them.\n40 And Timotheus said to the captains of his army: When Judas and his army come near the torrent of water, if he pass over unto us first, we shall not be able to withstand him: for he will certainly prevail over us.\n41 But if he be afraid to pass over, and camp on the other side of the river, we will pass over to them and shall prevail against him.\n42 Now when Judas came near the torrent of water, he set the scribes of the people by the torrent, and commanded them, saying: Suffer no man to stay behind: but let all come to the battle.\n43 And he passed over to them first, and all the people after him, and all the heathens were discomfited before them, and they threw away their weapons, and fled to the temple that was in Carnaim.\n44 And he took that city, and the temple he burnt with fire, with all things that were therein: and Carnaim was subdued, and could not stand against the face of Judas.\n45 And Judas gathered together all the Israelites that were in the land of Galaad, from the least even to the greatest, and their wives, and children, and an army exceeding great, to come into the land of Juda.\n46 And they came as far as Ephron: now this was a great city situate in the way, strongly fortified, and there was no means to turn from it on the right hand or on the left, but the way was through the midst of it.\n47 And they that were in the city, shut themselves in, and stopped up the gates with stones: and Judas sent to them with peaceable words,\n48 Saying: Let us pass through your land, to go into our country: and no man shall hurt you: we will only pass through on foot. But they would not open to them.\n49 Then Judas commanded proclamation to be made in the camp, that they should make an assault every man in the place where he was.\n50 And the men of the army drew near, and he assaulted that city all the day, and all the night, and the city was delivered into his hands:\n51 And they slew every male with the edge of the sword, and he razed the city, and took the spoils thereof, and passed through all the city over them that were slain.\n52 Then they passed over the Jordan to the great plain that is over against Bethsan.\n53 And Judas gathered together the hindmost, and he exhorted the people all the way through, till they came into the land of Juda.\n54 And they went up to mount Sion with joy and gladness, and offered holocausts, because not one of them was slain, till they had returned in peace.\n55 Now in the days that Judas and Jonathan were in the land of Galaad, and Simon his brother in Galilee before Ptolemais,\n56 Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias captain of the soldiers, heard of the good success, and the battles that were fought.\n**57 And he said: Let us also get us a name, and let us go fight against the Gentiles that are round about us.**\n58 And he gave charge to them that were in his army, and they went towards Jamnia.\n59 And Gorgias and his men went out of the city, to give them battle.\n60 And Joseph and Azarias were put to flight, and were pursued unto the borders of Judea: and there fell, on that day, of the people of Israel about two thousand men, and there was a great overthrow of the people:\n61 Because they did not hearken to Judas, and his brethren, thinking that they should do manfully.\n62 But they were not of the seed of those men by whom salvation was brought to Israel.\n63 And the men of Juda were magnified exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and of all the nations where their name was heard.\n64 And people assembled to them with joyful acclamations.\n65 Then Judas and his brethren went forth and attacked the children of Esau, in the land toward the south, and he took Chebron, and her towns: and he burnt the walls thereof and the towers all round it.\n66 And he removed his camp to go into the land of the aliens, and he went through Samaria.\n67 In that day some priests fell in battle, while desiring to do manfully they went out unadvisedly to fight.\n68 And Judas turned to Azotus into the land of the strangers, and he threw down their altars, and he burnt the statues of their gods with fire: and he took the spoils of the cities, and returned into the land of Juda.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the reference (book, chapter, verse) for \"But he did not render again according to the benefits which he had received, for his heart was lifted up: and wrath was enkindled against him, and against Juda and Jerusalem.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture \"But he did not render again according to the benefits which he had received, for his heart was lifted up: and wrath was enkindled against him, and against Juda and Jerusalem.\" is located in 2 Chronicles 32:25 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "From which book and what chapter does \"For they are lost with very great affliction: he hath begotten a son, who shall be in extremity of want.\" come?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of *Ecclesiastes*, chapter *5*.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n*Ecclesiastes Chapter 5*\n1 Speak not any thing rashly, and let not thy heart be hasty to utter a word before God.

Which when Sara heard, she laughed behind the door of the tent.\n11 Now they were both old, and far advanced in years, and it had ceased to be with Sara after the manner of women.\n12 And she laughed secretly, saying: After I am grown old and my lord is an old man, shall I give myself to pleasure?\n13 And the Lord said to Abraham: Why did Sara laugh, saying: Shall I who am an old woman bear a child indeed?\n14 Is there any thing hard to God? According to appointment I will return to thee at this same time, life accompanying, and Sara shall have a son.\n15 Sara denied, saying: I did not laugh: for she was afraid. But the Lord said, Nay: but thou didst laugh:\n16 And when the men rose up from thence, they turned their eyes towards Sodom: and Abraham walked with them, bringing them on the way.\n17 And the Lord said: Can I hide from Abraham what I am about to do:\n18 Seeing he shall become a great and mighty nation, and in him all the nations of the earth shall be blessed?\n19 For I know that he will command his children, and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord, and do judgment and justice: that for Abraham's sake the Lord may bring to effect all the things he hath spoken unto him.\n20 And the Lord said: The cry of Sodom and Gomorrha is multiplied, and their sin is become exceedingly grievous.\n21 I will go down and see whether they have done according to the cry that is come to me: or whether it be not so, that I may know.\n22 And they turned themselves from thence, and went their way to Sodom: but Abraham as yet stood before the Lord.\n23 And drawing nigh he said: Wilt thou destroy the just with the wicked?\n24 If there be fifty just men in the city, shall they perish withal? and wilt thou not spare that place for the sake of the fifty just, if they be therein?\n25 Far be it from thee to do this thing, and to slay the just with the wicked, and for the just to be in like case as the wicked, this is not beseeming thee: thou who judgest all the earth, wilt not make this judgment.\n26 And the Lord said to him: If I find in Sodom fifty just within the city, I will spare the whole place for their sake.\n27 And Abraham answered, and said: Seeing I have once begun, I will speak to my Lord, whereas I am dust and ashes.\n28 What if there be five less than fifty just persons? wilt thou for five and forty destroy the whole city? And he said: I will not destroy it, if I find five and forty.\n29 And again he said to him: But if forty be found there, what wilt thou do? He said: I will not destroy it for the sake of forty.\n30 Lord, saith he, be not angry, I beseech thee, if I speak: What if thirty shall be found there? He answered: I will not do it, if I find thirty there.\n31 Seeing, saith he, I have once begun, I will speak to my Lord. What if twenty be found there? He said: I will not destroy it for the sake of twenty.\n32 I beseech thee, saith he, be not angry, Lord, if I speak yet once more: What if ten should be found there? And he said: I will not destroy it for the sake of ten.\n33 And the Lord departed, after he had left speaking to Abraham: and Abraham returned to his place.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the scriptural address for \"For the Lord God of hosts shall make a consumption, and an abridgment in the midst of all the land.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture \"For the Lord God of hosts shall make a consumption, and an abridgment in the midst of all the land.\" is located in Isaiah 10:23 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does it say in Judges chapter 1 verse 35?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at Judges 1:35 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"And he dwelt in the mountain Hares, that is, of potsherds, in Aialon and Salebim.

heard that Nicanor and his army were fallen in battle, he sent again Bacchides and Alcimus into Judea; and the right wing of his army with them.\n2 And they took the road that leadeth to Galgal, and they camped in Masaloth, which is in Arabella: and they made themselves masters of it, and slew many people.\n3 In the first month of the hundred and fifty-second year they brought the army to Jerusalem:\n4 And they arose, and went to Berea with twenty thousand men, and two thousand horsemen.\n5 Now Judas had pitched his tents in Laisa, and three thousand chosen men with him:\n6 And they saw the multitude of the army that they were many, and they were seized with great fear: and many withdrew themselves out of the camp, and there remained of them no more than eight hundred men.\n7 And Judas saw that his army slipped away, and the battle pressed upon him, and his heart was cast down: because he had not time to gather them together, and he was discouraged.\n8 Then he said to them that remained: Let us arise, and go against our enemies, if we may be able to fight against them.\n9 But they dissuaded him, saying: We shall not be able, but let us save our lives now, and return to our brethren, and then we will fight against them: for we are but few.\n10 Then Judas said: God forbid we should do this thing, and flee away from them: but if our time be come, let us die manfully for our brethren, and let us not stain our glory.\n11 And the army removed out of the camp, and they stood over against them: and the horsemen were divided into two troops, and the slingers, and the archers went before the army, and they that were in the front were all men of valour.\n12 And Bacchides was in the right wing, and the legion drew near on two sides, and they sounded the trumpets:\n13 And they also were on Judas' side, even they also cried out, and the earth shook at the noise of the armies: and the battle was fought from morning even unto the evening.\n14 And Judas perceived that the stronger part of the army of Bacchides was on the right side, and all the stout of heart came together with him:\n15 And the right wing was discomfited by them, and he pursued them even to the mount Azotus.\n16 And they that were in the left wing saw that the right wing was discomfited, and they followed after Judas, and them that were with him, at their back:\n17 And the battle was hard fought, and there fell many wounded of the one side and of the other.\n18 And Judas was slain, and the rest fled away.\n19 And Jonathan and Simon took Judas their brother, and buried him in the sepulchre of their fathers in the city of Modin.\n20 And all the people of Israel bewailed him with great lamentation, and they mourned for him many days.\n21 And said: How is the mighty man fallen, that saved the people of Israel!\n22 But the rest of the words of the wars of Judas, and of the noble acts that he did, and of his greatness, are not written: for they were very many.\n23 And it came to pass after the death of Judas, that the wicked began to put forth their heads in all the confines of Israel, and all the workers of iniquity rose up.\n24 In those days there was a very great famine, and they and all their country yielded to Bacchides.\n25 And Bacchides chose the wicked men, and made them lords of the country:\n26 And they sought out, and made diligent search after the friends of Judas, and brought them to Bacchides, and he took vengeance of them, and abused them.\n27 And there was a great tribulation in Israel, such as was not since the day, that there was no prophet seen in Israel.\n28 And all the friends of Judas came together, and said to Jonathan:\n29 Since thy brother Judas died, there is not a man like him to go forth against our enemies, Bacchides, and them that are the enemies of our nation.\n30 Now therefore we have chosen thee this day to be our prince, and captain in his stead to fight our battles.\n31 So Jonathan took upon him the government at that time, and rose up in the place of Judas his brother.\n32 And Bacchides had knowledge of it, and sought to kill him.\n33 And Jonathan and Simon his brother, knew it, and all that were with them: and they fled into the desert of Thecua, and they pitched by the water of the lake of Asphar,\n34 And Bacchides understood it, and he came himself with all his army over the Jordan on the sabbath day.\n35 And Jonathan sent his brother a captain of the people, to desire the Nabutheans his friends, that they would lend them their equipage, which was copious.\n36 And the children of Jambri came forth out of Madaba, and took John, and all that he had, and went away with them.\n37 After this it was told Jonathan, and Simon his brother, that the children of Jambri made a great marriage, and were bringing the bride out of Madaba, the daughter of one of the great princes of Chanaan, with great pomp.\n38 And the remembered the blood of John their brother: and they went up, and hid themselves under the covert of the mountain.\n39 And they lifted up their eyes, and saw: and behold a tumult, and great preparation: and the bridegroom came forth, and his friends, and his brethren to meet them with timbrels, and musical instruments, and many weapons.\n40 And they rose up against them from the place where they lay in ambush, and slew them, and there fell many wounded, and the rest fled into the mountains, and they took all their spoils:\n41 And the marriage was turned into mourning, and the noise of their musical instruments into lamentation.\n42 And they took revenge for the blood of their brother: and they returned to the bank of the Jordan.\n43 And Bacchides heard it, and he came on the sabbath day even to the bank of the Jordan with a great power.\n44 And Jonathan said to his company: Let us arise, and fight against our enemies: for it is not now as yesterday, and the day before.\n45 And behold the battle is before us, and the water of the Jordan on this side and on that side, and banks, and marshes, and woods: and there is no place for us to turn aside.\n46 Now therefore cry ye to heaven, that ye may be delivered from the hand of your enemies. And they joined battle.\n47 And Jonathan stretched forth his hand to strike Bacchides, but he turned away from him backwards.\n48 And Jonathan, and they that were with him leaped into the Jordan, and swam over the Jordan to them:\n49 And there fell of Bacchides' side that day a thousand men: and they returned to Jerusalem,\n50 And they built strong cities in Judea, the fortress that was in Jericho, and in Ammaus, and in Bethoron, and in Bethel, and Thamnata, and Phara, and Thopo, with high walls, and gates, and bars.\n51 And he placed garrisons in them, that they might wage war against Israel:\n52 And he fortified the city of Bethsura, and Gazara, and the castle, and set garrisons in them, and provisions of victuals:\n53 And he took the sons of the chief men of the country for hostages, and put them in the castle in Jerusalem in custody.\n54 Now in the year one hundred and fifty-three, the second month, Alcimus commanded the walls of the inner court of the sanctuary to be thrown down, and the works of the prophets to be destroyed: and he began to be destroyed: and he began to destroy.\n55 At that time Alcimus was struck: and his works were hindered, and his mouth was stopped, and he was taken with a palsy, so that he could no more speak a word, nor give order concerning his house.\n56 And Alcimus died at that time in great torment.\n57 And Bacchides saw that Alcimus was dead: and he returned to the king, and the land was quiet for two years.\n**58 And all the wicked held a council, saying: Behold Jonathan, and they that are with him, dwell at ease, and without fear: now therefore let us bring Bacchides hither, and he shall take them all in one night.**\n59 So they went, and gave him counsel.\n60 And he arose to come with a great army: and he sent secretly letters to his adherents that were in Judea, to seize upon Jonathan, and them that were with him: but they could not, for their design was known to them.\n61 And he apprehended of the men of the country, that were the principal authors of the mischief, fifty men, and slew them.\n62 And Jonathan, and Simon, and they that were with him retired into Bethbessen, which is in the desert: and he repaired the breaches thereof, and they fortified it.\n63 And when Bacchides knew it, he gathered together all his multitude: and sent word to them that were of Judea.\n64 And he came, and camped above Bethbessen, and fought against it many days, and made engines.\n65 But Jonathan left his brother Simon in the city, and went forth into the country: and came with a number of men.\n66 And struck Odares, and his brethren, and the children of Phaseron in their tents, and he began to slay, and to increase in forces.\n67 But Simon and they that were with him, sallied out of the city, and burnt the engines.\n68 And they fought against Bacchides, and he was discomfited by them: and they afflicted him exceedingly, for his counsel, and his enterprise was in vain.\n69 And he was angry with the wicked men that had given him counsel to come into their country, and he slew many of them: and he purposed to return with the rest into their country.\n70 And Jonathan had knowledge of it, and he sent ambassadors to him to make peace with him, and to restore to him the prisoners.\n71 And he accepted it willingly, and did according to his words, and swore that he would do him no harm all the days of his life.\n72 And he restored to him the prisoners which he before had taken out of the land of Juda: and he returned and went away into his own country, and he came no more into their borders.\n73 So the sword ceased from Israel: and Jonathan dwelt in Machmas, and Jonathan began there to judge the people, and he destroyed the wicked out of Israel.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and chapter does \"And now the Lord surely will render you mercy and truth, and I also will, requite you for this good turn, because you have done this thing.\" belong to?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from *2 Samuel*, chapter *2*.\n\nWant the full chapter?

Thou shalt say: Thy servant Urias the Hethite is also slain.\n22 So the messenger departed, and came and told David all that Joab had commanded him.\n23 And the messenger said to David: The men prevailed against us, and they came out to us into the field: and we vigorously charged and pursued them even to the gate of the city.\n24 And the archers shot their arrows at thy servants from off the wall above: and some of the king's servants are slain, and thy servant Urias the Hethite is also dead.\n25 And David said to the messenger: Thus shalt thou say to Joab: Let not this thing discourage thee: for various is the event of war: and sometimes one, sometimes another is consumed by the sword: encourage thy warriors against The city, and exhort them that thou mayest overthrow it.\n26 And the wife of Urias heard that Urias her husband was dead, and she mourned for him.\n27 And the mourning being over, David sent and brought her into his house, and she became his wife, and she bore him a son: and this thing which David had done, was displeasing to the Lord.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Verse 32 from chapter 23 in Acts?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Acts 23:32 from the New Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"And the next day, leaving the horsemen to go with him, they returned to the castle.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and what chapter and verse include \"Where there are great riches, there are also many to eat them.

chapter for you:\n*1 Maccabees Chapter 11*\n1 And the king of Egypt gathered together an army, like the sand that lieth upon the sea shore, and many ships: and he sought to get the kingdom of Alexander by deceit, and join it to his own kingdom.\n2 And he went out into Syria with peaceable words, and they opened to him the cities, and met him: for king Alexander had ordered them to go forth to meet him, because he was his father in law.\n3 Now when Ptolemee entered into the cities, he put garrisons of soldiers in every city.\n4 And when he came near to Azotus, they shewed him the temple of Dagon that was burnt with fire, and Azotus, and the suburbs thereof that were destroyed, and the bodies that were cast abroad, and the graves of them that were slain in the battle, which they had made near the way.\n5 And they told the king that Jonathan had done these things, to make him odious: but the king held his peace.\n6 And Jonathan came to meet the king at Joppe with glory, and they saluted one another, and they lodged there.\n7 And Jonathan went with the king as far as the river, called Eleutherus: and he returned into Jerusalem.\n8 And king Ptolemee got the dominion of the cities by the sea side, even to Seleucia, and he devised evil designs against Alexander.\n9 And he sent ambassadors to Demetrius, saying: Come, let us make a league between us, and I will give thee my daughter whom Alexander hath, and thou shalt reign in the kingdom of thy father.\n10 For I repent that I have given him my daughter: for he hath sought to kill me.\n11 And he slandered him, because he coveted his kingdom.\n12 And he took away his daughter, and gave her to Demetrius, and alienated himself from Alexander, and his enmities were made manifest.\n13 And Ptolemee entered into Antioch, and set two crowns upon his head, that of Egypt, and that of Asia.\n14 Now king Alexander was in Cilicia at that time: because they that were in those places had rebelled.\n15 And when Alexander heard of it, he came to give him battle, and king Ptolemee brought forth his army, and met him with a strong power, and put him to flight.\n16 And Alexander fled into Arabia, there to be protected: and king Ptolemee was exalted.\n**17 And Zabdiel the Arabian took off Alexander's head, and sent it to Ptolemee.**\n18 And king Ptolemee died the third day after: and they that were in the strong holds were destroyed by them that were within the camp.\n19 And Demetrius reigned in the hundred and sixty-seventh year.\n20 In those days Jonathan gathered together them that were in Judea, to take the castle that was in Jerusalem: and they made many engines of war against it.\n21 Then some wicked men that hated their own nation, went away to king Demetrius, and told him that Jonathan was besieging the castle.\n22 And when he heard it, he was angry: and forthwith he came to Ptolemais, and wrote to Jonathan, that he should not besiege the castle, but should come to him in haste, and speak to him.\n23 But when Jonathan heard this, he bade them besiege it still: and he chose some of the ancients of Israel, and of the priests, and put himself in danger.\n24 And he took gold, and silver, and raiment, and many other presents, and went to the king to Ptolemais, and he found favour in his sight.\n25 And certain wicked men of his nation made complaints against him.\n26 And the king treated him as his predecessor had done before: and he exalted him in the sight of all his friends.\n27 And he confirmed him in the high priesthood, and all the honours he had before, and he made him the chief of his friends.\n28 And Jonathan requested of the king that he would make Judea free from tribute, and the three governments, and Samaria, and the confines thereof: and he promised him three hundred talents.\n29 And the king consented: and he wrote letters to Jonathan of all these things to this effect.\n30 King Demetrius to his brother Jonathan, and to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n31 We send you here a copy of the letter, which we have written to Lasthenes our parent concerning you, that you might know it.\n32 King Demetrius to Lasthenes his parent, greeting.\n33 We have determined to do good to the nation of the Jews who are our friends, and keep the things that are just with us, for their good will which they bear towards us.\n34 We have ratified therefore unto them all the borders of Judea, and the three cities, Apherema, Lydda, and Ramatha, which are added to Judea, out of Samaria, and all their confines, to be set apart to all them that sacrifice in Jerusalem, instead of the payments which the king received of them every year, and for the fruits of the land, and of the trees.\n35 And as for other things that belonged to us of the tithes, and of the tributes, from this time we discharge them of them: the saltpans also, and the crowns that were presented to us.\n36 We give all to them, and nothing hereof shall be revoked from this time forth and for ever.\n37 Now therefore see that thou make a copy of these things, and let it be given to Jonathan, and set upon the holy mountain, in a conspicuous place.\n38 And king Demetrius seeing that the land was quiet before him, and nothing resisted him, sent away all his forces, every man to his own place, except the foreign army, which he had drawn together from the islands of the nations: so all the troops of his fathers hated him.\n39 Now there was one Tryphon who had been of Alexander's party before: who seeing that all the army murmured against Demetrius, went to Emalchuel the Arabian, who brought up Antiochus the son of Alexander.\n40 And he pressed him much to deliver him to him, that he might be king in his father's place: and he told him all that Demetrius had done, and how his soldiers hated him. And he remained there many days.\n41 And Jonathan sent to king Demetrius, desiring that he would cast out them that were in the castle in Jerusalem, and those that were in the strong holds: because they fought against Israel.\n42 And Demetrius sent to Jonathan, saying: I will not only do this for thee, and for thy people, but I will greatly honour thee, and thy nation, when opportunity shall serve.\n43 Now therefore thou shalt do well if thou send me men to help me: for all my army is gone from me.\n44 And Jonathan sent him three thousand valiant men to Antioch: and they came to the king, and the king was very glad of their coming.\n45 And they that were of the city assembled themselves together, to the number of a hundred and twenty thousand men, and would have killed the king.\n46 And the king fled into the palace, and they of the city kept the passages of the city, and began to fight.\n47 And the king called the Jews to his assistance: and they came to him all at once, and they all dispersed themselves through the city.\n48 And they slew in that day a hundred thousand men, and they set fire to the city, and got many spoils that day, and delivered the king.\n49 And they that were of the city saw that the Jews had got the city as they would: and they were discouraged in their minds, and cried to the king, making supplication, and saying:\n50 Grant us peace, and let the Jews cease from assaulting us, and the city.\n51 And they threw down their arms, and made peace, and the Jews were glorified in the sight of the king, and in the sight of all that were in his realm, and were renowned throughout the kingdom, and returned to Jerusalem with many spoils.\n52 So king Demetrius sat in the throne of his kingdom: and the land was quiet before him.\n53 And he falsified all whatsoever he had said, and alienated himself from Jonathan, and did not reward him according to the benefits he had received from him, but gave him great trouble.\n54 And after this Tryphon returned, and with him Antiochus the young boy, who was made king, and put on the diadem.\n55 And there assembled unto him all the hands which Demetrius had sent away, and they fought against Demetrius, who turned his back and fled.\n56 And Tryphon took the elephants, and made himself master of Antioch.\n57 And young Antiochus wrote to Jonathan, saying: I confirm thee in the high priesthood, and I appoint thee ruler over the four cities, and to be one of the king's friends.\n58 And he sent him vessels of gold for his service, and he gave him leave to drink in gold, and to be clothed in purple, and to wear a golden buckle:\n59 And he made his brother Simon governor from the borders of Tyre even to the confines of Egypt.\n60 Then Jonathan went forth and passed through the cities beyond the river: and all the forces of Syria gathered themselves to him to help him, and he came to Ascalon, and they met him honourably out of the city.\n61 And he went from thence to Gaza: and they that were in Gaza shut him out: and he besieged it, and burnt all the suburbs round about, and took the spoils.\n62 And the men of Gaza made supplication to Jonathan, and he gave them the right hand: and he took their sons for hostages, and sent them to Jerusalem: and he went through the country as far as Damascus.\n63 And Jonathan heard that the generals of Demetrius were come treacherously to Cades, which is in Galilee, with a great army, purposing to remove him from the affairs of the kingdom:\n64 And he went against them: but left his brother Simon in the country.\n65 And Simon encamped against Bethsura, and assaulted it many days, and shut them up.\n66 And they desired him to make peace, and he granted it them: and he cast them out from thence, and took the city, and placed a garrison in it.\n67 And Jonathan, and his army encamped by the water of Genesar, and before it was light they were ready in the plain of Asor.\n68 And behold the army of the strangers met him in the plain, and they laid an ambush for him in the mountains: but he went out against them.\n69 And they that lay in ambush arose out of their places, and joined battle.\n70 And all that were on Jonathan's side fled, and none was left of them, but Mathathias the son of Absalom, and Judas the son of Calphi, chief captain of the army.\n71 And Jonathan rent his garments, and cast earth upon his head, and prayed.\n72 And Jonathan turned again to them to battle, and he put them to flight, and they fought.\n73 And they of his part that fled saw this, and they turned again to him, and they all with him pursued the enemies even to Cades to their own camp, and they came even thither.\n74 And there fell of the aliens in that day three thousand men: and Jonathan returned to Jerusalem.\n",

He that believeth, let him not hasten.\n17 And I will set judgment in weight, and justice in measure: and hail shall overturn the hope of falsehood: and waters shall overflow its protection.\n18 And Sour league with death shall be abolished, and your covenant with hell shall not stand: when the overflowing scourge shall pass, you shall be trodden down by it.\n19 Whensoever it shall pass through, it shall take you away: because in the morning early it shall pass through, in the day and in the night, and vexation alone shall make you understand what you hear.\n20 For the bed is straitened, so that one must fall out, and a short covering cannot cover both.\n21 For the Lord shall stand up as in the mountain of divisions: he shall be angry as in the valley which is in Gabaon: that he may do his work, his strange work: that he may perform his work, his work is strange to him.\n**22 And now do not mock, lest your bonds be tied strait.

And they stood before the statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.\n4 Then a herald cried with a strong voice: To you it is commanded, O nations, tribes, and languages:\n5 That in the hour that you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, and of the flute, and of the harp, of the sackbut, and of the psaltery, and of the symphony, and of all kind of music; ye fall down and adore the golden statue which king Nabuchodonosor hath set up.\n6 But if any man shall not fall down and adore, he shall the same hour be cast into a furnace of burning fire.\n7 Upon this therefore, at the time when all the people heard the sound of the trumpet, the flute, and the harp, of the sackbut, and the psaltery, of the symphony, and of all kind of music: all the nations, tribes, and languages fell down and adored the golden statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.\n8 And presently at that very time some Chaldeans came and accused the Jews,\n9 And said to king Nabuchodonosor: O king, live for ever:\n10 Thou, O king, hast made a decree that every man that shall hear the sound of the trumpet, the flute, and the harp, of the sackbut, and the psaltery, of the symphony, and of all kind of music, shall prostrate himself, and adore the golden statue:\n11 And that if any man shall not fall down and adore, he should be cast into a furnace of burning fire.\n12 Now there are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the works of the province of Babylon, Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago: these men, O king, have slighted thy decree: they worship not thy gods, nor do they adore the golden statue which thou hast set up.\n13 Then Nabuchodonosor in fury, and in wrath, commanded that Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago should be brought: who immediately were brought before the king.\n14 And Nabuchodonosor the king spoke to them, and said: Is it true, O Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, that you do not worship my gods, nor adore the golden statue that I have set up?\n15 Now therefore if you be ready at what hour soever you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, flute, harp, sackbut, and psaltery, and symphony, and of all kind of music, prostrate yourselves, and adore the statue which I have made: but if you do not adore, you shall be cast the same hour into the furnace of burning fire: and who is the God that shall deliver you out of my hand?\n16 Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago answered and said to king Nabuchodonosor: We have no occasion to answer thee concerning this matter.\n17 For behold our God, whom we worship, is able to save us from the furnace of burning fire, and to deliver us out of thy hands, O king.\n18 But if he will not, be it known to thee, O king, that we will not worship thy gods, nor adore the golden statue which thou hast set up.\n19 Then was Nabuchodonosor filled with fury: and the countenance of his face was changed against Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, and he commanded that the furnace should be heated seven times more than it had been accustomed to be heated.\n20 And he commanded the strongest men that were in his army, to bind the feet of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, and to cast them into the furnace of burning fire.\n21 And immediately these men were bound and were cast into the furnace of burning fire, with their coats, and their caps, and their shoes, and their garments.\n22 For the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace was heated exceedingly. And the flame of the fire slew those men that had cast in Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago.\n23 But these three men, that is, Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, fell down bound in the midst of the furnace of burning fire.\n24 And they walked in the midst of the flame, praising God and blessing the Lord.\n25 Then Azarias standing up prayed in this manner, and opening his mouth in the midst of the fire, he said:\n26 Blessed art thou, O Lord, the God of our fathers, and thy name is worthy of praise, and glorious for ever:\n27 For thou art just in all that thou hast done to us, and all thy works are true, and thy ways right, and all thy judgments true.\n28 For thou hast executed true judgments in all the things that thou hast brought upon us, and upon Jerusalem the holy city of our fathers: for according to truth and judgment, thou hast brought all these things upon us for our sins.\n29 For we have sinned, and committed iniquity, departing from thee: and we have trespassed in all things:\n30 And we have not hearkened to thy commandments, nor have we observed nor done as thou hadst commanded us, that it might go well with us.\n31 Wherefore all that thou hast brought upon us, and every thing that thou hast done to us, thou hast done in true judgment:\n32 And thou hast delivered us into the hands of our enemies that are unjust, and most wicked, and prevaricators, and to a king unjust, and most wicked beyond all that are upon the earth.\n33 And now we cannot open our mouths: we are become a shame and reproach to thy servants, and to them that worship thee.\n34 Deliver us not up for ever, we beseech thee, for thy name's sake, and abolish not thy covenant.\n35 And take not away thy mercy from us for the sake of Abraham thy beloved, and Isaac thy servant, and Israel thy holy one:\n36 To whom thou hast spoken, promising that thou wouldst multiply their seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is on the sea shore.\n37 For we, O Lord, are diminished more than any nation, and are brought low in all the earth this day for our sins.\n38 Neither is there at this time prince, or leader, or prophet, or holocaust, or sacrifice, or oblation, or incense, or place of firstfruits before thee,\n39 That we may find thy mercy: nevertheless in a contrite heart and humble spirit let us be accepted.\n40 As in holocausts of rams, and bullocks, and as in thousands of fat lambs: so let our sacrifice be made in thy sight this day, that it may please thee: for there is no confusion to them that trust in thee.\n41 And now we follow thee with all our heart, and we fear thee, and seek thy face.\n42 Put us not to confusion, but deal. with us according to thy meekness, and according to the multitude of thy mercies.\n43 And deliver us according to thy wonderful works, and give glory to thy name, O Lord:\n44 And let all them be confounded that shew evils to thy servants, let them be confounded in all thy might, and let their strength be broken.\n45 And let them know that thou art the Lord, the only God, and glorious over all the world.\n46 Now the king's servants that had cast them in, ceased not to heat the furnace with brimstone, and tow, and pitch, and dry sticks,\n47 And the flame mounted up above the furnace nine and forty cubits:\n48 And it broke forth, and burnt such of the Chaldeans as it found near the furnace.\n49 But the angel of the Lord went down with Azarias and his companions into the furnace: and he drove the flame of the fire out of the furnace,\n50 And made the midst of the furnace like the blowing of a wind bringing dew, and the fire touched them not at all, nor troubled them, nor did them any harm.\n51 Then these three as with one mouth praised, and glorified, and blessed God in the furnace, saying:\n52 Blessed art thou, O Lord the God of our fathers: and worthy to be praised, and glorified, and exalted above all for ever: and blessed is the holy name of thy glory: and worthy to be praised, and exalted above all in all ages.\n53 Blessed art thou in the holy temple of thy glory: and exceedingly to be praised, and exceeding glorious for ever.\n54 Blessed art thou on the throne of thy kingdom, and exceedingly to be praised, and exalted above all for ever.\n55 Blessed art thou, that beholdest the depths, and sittest upon the cherubims: and worthy to be praised and exalted above all for ever.\n56 Blessed art thou in the firmament of heaven: and worthy of praise, and glorious for ever.\n57 All ye works of the Lord, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n58 O ye angels of the Lord, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n59 O ye heavens, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n60 O all ye waters that are above the heavens, bless the Lord;

And immediately Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago went out from the midst of the fire.\n94 And the nobles, and the magistrates, and the judges, and the great men of the king being gathered together, considered these men, that the fire had no power on their bodies, and that not a hair of their head had been singed, nor their garments altered, nor the smell of the fire had passed on them.\n95 Then Nabuchodonosor breaking forth, said: Blessed be the God of them, to wit, of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that believed in him: and they changed the king's word, and delivered up their bodies that they might not serve, nor adore any god, except their own God.\n96 By me therefore this decree is made, that every people, tribe, and tongue, which shall speak blasphemy against the God of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, shall be destroyed, and their houses laid waste: for there is no other God that can save in this manner.\n97 Then the king promoted Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, in the province of Babylon.\n98 Nabuchodonosor the king, to all peoples, nations, and tongues, that dwell in all the earth, peace be multiplied unto you.\n99 The most high God hath wrought signs and wonders toward me.

And in like manner the husband also hath not power of his own body, but the wife.\n5 Defraud not one another, except, perhaps, by consent, for a time, that you may give yourselves to prayer; and return together again, lest Satan tempt you for your incontinency.\n6 But I speak this by indulgence, not by commandment.\n7 For I would that all men were even as myself: but every one hath his proper gift from God; one after this manner, and another after that.\n8 But I say to the unmarried, and to the widows: It is good for them if they so continue, even as I.\n9 But if they do not contain themselves, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to be burnt.\n10 But to them that are married, not I but the Lord commandeth, that the wife depart not from her husband.\n11 And if she depart, that she remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband. And let not the husband put away his wife.\n12 For to the rest I speak, not the Lord. If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she consent to dwell with him, let him not put her away.\n13 And if any woman hath a husband that believeth not, and he consent to dwell with her, let her not put away her husband.\n14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the believing wife; and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the believing husband: otherwise your children should be unclean; but now they are holy.\n15 But if the unbeliever depart, let him depart. For a brother or sister is not under servitude in such cases. But God hath called us in peace.\n16 For how knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? Or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?\n17 But as the Lord hath distributed to every one, as God hath called every one, so let him walk: and so in all churches I teach.\n18 Is any man called, being circumcised? let him not procure uncircumcision. Is any man called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.\n19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing: but the observance of the commandments of God.\n20 Let every man abide in the same calling in which he was called.\n21 Wast thou called, being a bondman? care not for it; but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.\n22 For he that is called in the Lord, being a bondman, is the freeman of the Lord. Likewise he that is called, being free, is the bondman of Christ.\n23 You are bought with a price; be not made the bondslaves of men.\n24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he was called, therein abide with God.\n25 Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord; but I give counsel, as having obtained mercy of the Lord, to be faithful.\n26 I think therefore that this is good for the present necessity, that it is good for a man so to be.\n**27 Art thou bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.**\n28 But if thou take a wife, thou hast not sinned. And if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned: nevertheless, such shall have tribulation of the flesh. But I spare you.\n29 This therefore I say, brethren; the time is short; it remaineth, that they also who have wives, be as if they had none;\n30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as if they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;\n31 And they that use this world, as if they used it not: for the fashion of this world passeth away.\n32 But I would have you to be without solicitude. He that is without a wife, is solicitous for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please God.\n33 But he that is with a wife, is solicitous for the things of the world, how he may please his wife: and he is divided.\n34 And the unmarried woman and the virgin thinketh on the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she that is married thinketh on the things of the world, how she may please her husband.\n35 And this I speak for your profit: not to cast a snare upon you; but for that which is decent, and which may give you power to attend upon the Lord, without impediment.\n36 But if any man think that he seemeth dishonoured, with regard to his virgin, for that she is above the age, and it must so be: let him do what he will; he sinneth not, if she marry.\n37 For he that hath determined being steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but having power of his own will; and hath judged this in his heart, to keep his virgin, doth well.\n38 Therefore, both he that giveth his virgin in marriage, doth well; and he that giveth her not, doth better.\n39 A woman is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband die, she is at liberty: let her marry to whom she will; only in the Lord.\n40 But more blessed shall she be, if she so remain, according to my counsel; and I think that I also have the spirit of God.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"And the priests went in, and stood before the face of the altar and the temple: and weeping, they said:\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"And the priests went in, and stood before the face of the altar and the temple: and weeping, they said:\" is written in 1 Maccabees 7:36, within the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "2 Chronicles 9:22 please", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**Old Testament**\n*2 Chronicles 9:22 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"And Solomon was magnified above all the kings of the earth for riches and glory.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you read 2 Maccabees chapter 11, verse 31?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in 2 Maccabees 11:31 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"That the Jews may use their own kind of meats, and their own laws as before, and that none of them any manner of ways be molested for things which have been done by ignorance.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"And say ye to Amasa: Art not thou my bone, and my flesh?

Jesus therefore being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well. It was about the sixth hour.\n7 There cometh a woman of Samaria, to draw water. Jesus saith to her: Give me to drink.\n8 For his disciples were gone into the city to buy meats.\n9 Then that Samaritan woman saith to him: How dost thou, being a Jew, ask of me to drink, who am a Samaritan woman? For the Jews do not communicate with the Samaritans.\n10 Jesus answered, and said to her: If thou didst know the gift of God, and who he is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou perhaps wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.\n11 The woman saith to him: Sir, thou hast nothing wherein to draw, and the well is deep; from whence then hast thou living water?\n12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?\n13 Jesus answered, and said to her: Whosoever drinketh of this water, shall thirst again; but he that shall drink of the water that I will give him, shall not thirst for ever:\n14 But the water that I will give him, shall become in him a fountain of water, springing up into life everlasting.\n15 The woman saith to him: Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.\n16 Jesus saith to her: Go, call thy husband, and come hither.\n17 The woman answered, and said: I have no husband. Jesus said to her: Thou hast said well, I have no husband:\n18 For thou hast had five husbands: and he whom thou now hast, is not thy husband. This thou hast said truly.\n19 The woman saith to him: Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.\n20 Our fathers adored on this mountain, and you say, that at Jerusalem is the place where men must adore.\n21 Jesus saith to her: Woman, believe me, that the hour cometh, when you shall neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, adore the Father.\n22 You adore that which you know not: we adore that which we know; for salvation is of the Jews.\n23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true adorers shall adore the Father in spirit and in truth. For the Father also seeketh such to adore him.\n24 God is a spirit; and they that adore him, must adore him in spirit and in truth.\n25 The woman saith to him: I know that the Messias cometh (who is called Christ); therefore, when he is come, he will tell us all things.\n26 Jesus saith to her: I am he, who am speaking with thee.\n27 And immediately his disciples came; and they wondered that he talked with the woman. Yet no man said: What seekest thou? or, why talkest thou with her?\n28 The woman therefore left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men there:\n29 Come, and see a man who has told me all things whatsoever I have done. Is not he the Christ?\n30 They went therefore out of the city, and came unto him.\n31 In the mean time the disciples prayed him, saying: Rabbi, eat.\n32 But he said to them: I have meat to eat, which you know not.\n33 The disciples therefore said one to another: Hath any man brought him to eat?\n34 Jesus saith to them: My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, that I may perfect his work.\n35 Do you not say, There are yet four months, and then the harvest cometh? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes, and see the countries; for they are white already to harvest.\n36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life everlasting: that both he that soweth, and he that reapeth, may rejoice together.\n37 For in this is the saying true: That it is one man that soweth, and it is another that reapeth.\n38 I have sent you to reap that in which you did not labour: others have laboured, and you have entered into their labours.\n39 Now of that city many of the Samaritans believed in him, for the word of the woman giving testimony: He told me all things whatsoever I have done.\n**40 So when the Samaritans were come to him, they desired that he would tarry there. And he abode there two days.**\n41 And many more believed in him because of his own word.\n42 And they said to the woman: We now believe, not for thy saying: for we ourselves have heard him, and know that this is indeed the Saviour of the world.\n43 Now after two days, he departed thence, and went into Galilee.\n44 For Jesus himself gave testimony that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.\n45 And when he was come into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things he had done at Jerusalem on the festival day; for they also went to the festival day.\n46 He came again therefore into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain ruler, whose son was sick at Capharnaum.\n47 He having heard that Jesus was come from Judea into Galilee, went to him, and prayed him to come down, and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.\n48 Jesus therefore said to him: Unless you see signs and wonders, you believe not.\n49 The ruler saith to him: Lord, come down before that my son die.\n50 Jesus saith to him: Go thy way; thy son liveth. The man believed the word which Jesus said to him, and went his way.\n51 And as he was going down, his servants met him; and they brought word, saying, that his son lived.\n52 He asked therefore of them the hour wherein he grew better. And they said to him: Yesterday, at the seventh hour, the fever left him.\n53 The father therefore knew, that it was at the same hour that Jesus said to him, Thy son liveth; and himself believed, and his whole house.\n54 This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judea into Galilee.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou hast given me out of the world.

shall be the pasch, and the son of man shall be delivered up to be crucified:\n3 Then were gathered together the chief priests and ancients of the people into the court of the high priest, who was called Caiphas:\n4 And they consulted together, that by subtilty they might apprehend Jesus, and put him to death.\n5 But they said: Not on the festival day, lest perhaps there should be a tumult among the people.\n6 And when Jesus was in Bethania, in the house of Simon the leper,\n7 There came to him a woman having an alabaster box of precious ointment, and poured it on his head as he was at table.\n8 And the disciples seeing it, had indignation, saying: To what purpose is this waste?\n9 For this might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.\n10 And Jesus knowing it, said to them: Why do you trouble this woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.\n11 For the poor you have always with you: but me you have not always.\n12 For she in pouring this ointment upon my body, hath done it for my burial.\n13 Amen I say to you, wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, that also which she hath done, shall be told for a memory of her.\n14 Then went one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, to the chief priests,\n15 And said to them: What will you give me, and I will deliver him unto you? But they appointed him thirty pieces of silver.\n16 And from thenceforth he sought opportunity to betray him.\n17 And on the first day of the Azymes, the disciples came to Jesus, saying: Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the pasch?\n18 But Jesus said: Go ye into the city to a certain man, and say to him: the master saith, My time is near at hand, with thee I make the pasch with my disciples.\n**19 And the disciples did as Jesus appointed to them, and they prepared the pasch.**\n20 But when it was evening, he sat down with his twelve disciples.\n21 And whilst they were eating, he said: Amen I say to you, that one of you is about to betray me.\n22 And they being very much troubled, began every one to say: Is it I, Lord?\n23 But he answering, said: He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, he shall betray me.\n24 The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man shall be betrayed: it were better for him, if that man had not been born.\n25 And Judas that betrayed him, answering, said: Is it I, Rabbi? He saith to him: Thou hast said it.\n26 And whilst they were at supper, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke: and gave to his disciples, and said: Take ye, and eat. This is my body.\n27 And taking the chalice, he gave thanks, and gave to them, saying: Drink ye all of this.\n28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which shall be shed for many unto remission of sins.\n29 And I say to you, I will not drink from henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I shall drink it with you new in the kingdom of my Father.\n30 And a hymn being said, they went out unto mount Olivet.\n31 Then Jesus said to them: All you shall be scandalized in me this night. For it is written: I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be dispersed.\n32 But after I shall be risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.\n33 And Peter answering, said to him: Although all shall be scandalized in thee, I will never be scandalized.\n34 Jesus said to him: Amen I say to thee, that in this night before the cock crow, thou wilt deny me thrice.\n35 Peter saith to him: Yea, though I should die with thee, I will not deny thee. And in like manner said all the disciples.\n36 Then Jesus came with them into a country place which is called Gethsemani; and he said to his disciples: Sit you here, till I go yonder and pray.\n37 And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to grow sorrowful and to be sad.\n38 Then he saith to them: My soul is sorrowful even unto death: stay you here, and watch with me.\n39 And going a little further, he fell upon his face, praying, and saying: My Father, if it be possible, let this chalice pass from me. Nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.\n40 And he cometh to his disciples, and findeth them asleep, and he saith to Peter: What? Could you not watch one hour with me?\n41 Watch ye, and pray that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh weak.\n42 Again the second time, he went and prayed, saying: My Father, if this chalice may not pass away, but I must drink it, thy will be done.\n43 And he cometh again and findeth them sleeping: for their eyes were heavy.\n44 And leaving them, he went again: and he prayed the third time, saying the selfsame word.\n45 Then he cometh to his disciples, and saith to them: Sleep ye now and take your rest; behold the hour is at hand, and the Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners.\n46 Rise, let us go: behold he is at hand that will betray me.\n47 As he yet spoke, behold Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and the ancients of the people.\n48 And he that betrayed him, gave them a sign, saying: Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he, hold him fast.\n49 And forthwith coming to Jesus, he said: Hail, Rabbi. And he kissed him.\n50 And Jesus said to him: Friend, whereto art thou come? Then they came up, and laid hands on Jesus, and held him.\n51 And behold one of them that were with Jesus, stretching forth his hand, drew out his sword: and striking the servant of the high priest, cut off his ear.\n52 Then Jesus saith to him: Put up again thy sword into its place: for all that take the sword shall perish with the sword.\n53 Thinkest thou that I cannot ask my Father, and he will give me presently more than twelve legions of angels?\n54 How then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that so it must be done?\n55 In that same hour Jesus said to the multitudes: You are come out as it were to a robber with swords and clubs to apprehend me. I sat daily with you, teaching in the temple, and you laid not hands on me.\n56 Now all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then the disciples all leaving him, fled.\n57 But they holding Jesus led him to Caiphas the high priest, where the scribes and the ancients were assembled.\n58 And Peter followed him afar off, even to the court of the high priest. And going in, he sat with the servants, that he might see the end.\n59 And the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death:\n60 And they found not, whereas many false witnesses had come in. And last of all there came two false witnesses:\n61 And they said: This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and after three days to rebuild it.\n62 And the high priest rising up, said to him: Answerest thou nothing to the things which these witness against thee?\n63 But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest said to him: I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us if thou be the Christ the Son of God.\n64 Jesus saith to him: Thou hast said it. Nevertheless I say to you, hereafter you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of the power of God, and coming in the clouds of heaven.\n65 Then the high priests rent his garments, saying: He hath blasphemed; what further need have we of witnesses? Behold, now you have heard the blasphemy:\n66 What think you? But they answering, said: He is guilty of death.\n67 Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him: and others struck his face with the palms of their hands,\n68 Saying: Prophesy unto us, O Christ, who is he that struck thee?\n69 But Peter sat without in the court: and there came to him a servant maid, saying: Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilean.\n70 But he denied before them all, saying: I know not what thou sayest.\n71 And as he went out of the gate, another maid saw him, and she saith to them that were there: This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth.\n72 And again he denied with an oath, I know not the man.\n73 And after a little while they came that stood by, and said to Peter: Surely thou also art one of them; for even thy speech doth discover thee.\n74 Then he began to curse and to swear that he knew not the man.

She saith to them: Because they have taken away my Lord; and I know not where they have laid him.\n14 When she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing; and she knew not that it was Jesus.\n15 Jesus saith to her: Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou?

But he told not this to his father.\n2 And Saul abode in the uttermost part of Gabaa under the pomegranate tree, which was in Magron: and the people with him were about six hundred men.\n3 And Achias the son of Achitob brother to Ichabod the son of Phinees, the son of Heli the priest of the Lord in Silo, wore the ephod. And the people knew not whither Jonathan was gone.\n4 Now there were between the ascents, by which Jonathan sought to go over to the garrison of the Philistines, rocks standing up on both sides, and steep cliffs like teeth on the one side, and on the other, the name of the one was Boses, and the name of the other was Sene:\n5 One rock stood out towards the north over against Machmas, and the other to the south over against Gabaa.\n6 And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armour: Come, let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised, it may be the Lord will do for us, because it is easy for the Lord to save either by many, or by few.\n7 And his armourbearer said to him: Do all that pleaseth thy mind: go whither thou wilt, and I will be with thee wheresoever thou hast a mind.\n8 And Jonathan said: Behold we will go over to these men. And when we shall be seen by them,\n9 If they shall speak thus to us: Stay till we come to you: let us stand still in our place, and not go up to them.\n10 But if they shall say: Come up to us: let us go up, because the Lord hath delivered them into our hands, this shall be a sign unto us.\n11 So both of them discovered themselves to the garrison of the Philistines: and the Philistines said: Behold the Hebrews come forth out of the holes wherein they were hid.\n12 And the men of the garrison spoke to Jonathan, and to his armourbearer, and said: Come up to us, and we will shew you a thing. And Jonathan said to his armourbearer: Let us go up, follow me: for the Lord hath delivered them into the hands of Israel.\n13 And Jonathan went up creeping on his hands and feet, and his armourbearer after him. And some fell before Jonathan, others his armourbearer slew as he followed him.\n14 And the first slaughter which Jonathan and his armourbearer made, was of about twenty men, within half an acre of land, which a yoke of oxen is wont to plough in a day.\n15 And there was a miracle in the camp, through the fields: yea and all the people of their garrison, who had gone out to plunder, were amazed, and the earth trembled: and it happened as a miracle from God.\n16 And the watchmen of Saul, who were in Gabaa of Benjamin looked, and behold a multitude overthrown, and fleeing this way and that.\n17 And Saul said to the people that were with him: Look, and see who is gone from us. And when they had sought, it was found that Jonathan and his armourbearer were not there.\n18 And Saul said to Achias: Bring the ark of the Lord. (For the ark of God was there that day with the children of Israel.)\n19 And while Saul spoke to the priest, there arose a great uproar in the camp of the Philistines: and it increased by degrees, and was heard more clearly. And Saul said to the priest: Draw in thy hand.\n20 Then Saul and all the people that were with him, shouted together, and they came to the place of the fight: and behold every man's sword was turned upon his neighbour, and there was a very great slaughter.\n21 Moreover the Hebrews that had been with the Philistines yesterday and the day before, and went up with them into the camp, returned to be with the Israelites, who were with Saul and Jonathan.\n22 And all the Israelites that had hid themselves in mount Ephraim, hearing that the Philistines fled, joined themselves with their countrymen in the fight. And there were with Saul about ten thousand men.\n23 And the Lord saved Israel that day. And the fight went on as far as Bethaven.\n24 And the men of Israel were joined together that day; and Saul adjured the people, saying: Cursed be the man that shall eat food till evening, till I be revenged of my enemies. So none of the people tasted any food:\n25 And all the common people came into a forest, in which there was honey upon the ground.\n26 And when the people came into the forest, behold the honey dropped, but no man put his hand to his mouth. For the people feared the oath.\n27 But Jonathan had not heard when his father adjured the people: and he put forth the end of the rod, which he had in his hand, and dipt it in a honeycomb: and he carried his hand to his mouth, and his eyes were enlightened.\n28 And one of the people answering, said: Thy father hath bound the people with an oath, saying: Cursed be the man that shall eat any food this day. (And the people were faint.)\n29 And Jonathan said: My father hath troubled the land: you have seen yourselves that my eyes are enlightened, because I tasted a little of this honey:\n30 How much more if the people had eaten of the prey of their enemies, which they found? had there not been made a greater slaughter among the Philistines?\n**31 So they smote that day the Philistines from Machmas to Ailon. And the people were wearied exceedingly.**\n32 And falling upon the spoils, they took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and slew them on the ground: and the people ate them with the blood.\n33 And they told Saul that the people had sinned against the Lord, eating with the blood. And he said: You have transgressed: roll here to me now a great stone.\n34 And Saul said: Disperse yourselves among the people, and tell them to bring me every man his ox and his ram, and slay them upon this stone, and eat, and you shall not sin against the Lord in eating with the blood. So all the people brought every man his ox with him till the night: and slew them there.\n35 And Saul built an altar to the Lord and he then first began to build an altar to the Lord.\n36 And Saul said: Let us fall upon the Philistines by night, and destroy them till the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And the people said: Do all that seemeth good in thy eyes. And the priest said: Let us draw near hither unto God.\n37 And Saul consulted the Lord: Shall I pursue after the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into the hands of Israel? And he answered him not that day.\n38 And Saul said: Bring hither all the corners of the people: and know, and see by whom this sin hath happened to day.\n39 As the Lord liveth who is the saviour of Israel, if it was done by Jonathan my son, he shall surely die. In this none of the people gainsaid him.\n40 And he said to all Israel: Be you on one side, and I with Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people answered Saul: Do what seemeth good in thy eyes.\n41 And Saul said to the Lord: O Lord God of Israel, give a sign, by which we may know, what the meaning is, that thou answerest not thy servant to day. If this iniquity be in me, or in my son Jonathan, give a proof: or if this iniquity be in thy people, give holiness. And Jonathan and Saul were taken, and the people escaped.\n42 And Saul said: Cast lots between me, and Jonathan my son. And Jonathan was taken.\n43 And Saul said to Jonathan: Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him, and said: I did but taste a little honey with the end of the rod, which was in my hand, and behold I must die.\n44 And Saul said: May God do so and so to me, and add still more: for dying thou shalt die, O Jonathan.\n45 And the people said to Saul: Shall Jonathan then die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? This must not be. As the Lord liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground, for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people delivered Jonathan, that he should not die.\n46 And Saul went back, and did not pursue after the Philistines: and the Philistines went to their own places.\n47 And Saul having his kingdom established over Israel, fought against all his enemies round about, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and Edom, and the kings of Soba, and the Philistines; and whithersoever he turned himself, he overcame.\n48 And gathering together an army, he defeated Amalec, and delivered Israel from the hand of them that spoiled them.\n49 And the sons of Saul, were Jonathan, and Jessui, and Melchisua: and the names of his two daughters, the name of the firstborn was Merob, and the name of the younger Michol.\n50 And the name of Saul's wife, was Achinoam the daughter of Achimaas; and the name of the captain of his army was Abner, the son of Ner, the cousin german of Saul.\n51 For Cis was the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner, was son of Abiel.\n52 And there was a great war against the Philistines all the days of Saul.

most holy.\n7 As the sacrifice for sin is offered, so is also that for a trespass: the same shall be the law of both these sacrifices: it shall belong to the priest that offereth it.\n8 The priest that offereth the victim of holocaust, shall have the skin thereof.\n9 And every sacrifice of flour that is baked in the oven, and whatsoever is dressed on the gridiron, or in the fryingpan, shall be

hath touched the uncleanness of man, or of beast, or of any thing that can defile, and shall eat of such kind of flesh, shall be cut off from his people.\n22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n23

And there was a cave, into which Saul went, to ease nature: now David and his men lay hid in the inner part of the cave.\n5 And the servants of David said to him: Behold the day, of which the Lord said to thee: I will deliver thy enemy unto thee, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good in thy eyes. Then David arose, and secretly cut off the hem of Saul's robe.\n6 After which David's heart struck him, because he had cut off the hem of Saul's robe.\n7 And he said to his men: The Lord be merciful unto me, that I may do no such thing to my master the Lord's anointed, as to lay my hand upon him, because he is the Lord's anointed.\n8 And David stopped his men with his words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rising up out of the cave, went on his way.\n9 And David also rose up after him: and going out of the cave cried after Saul, saying: My lord the king. And Saul looked behind him: and David bowing himself down to the ground, worshipped,\n10 And said to Saul: Why dost thou hear the words of men that say David seeketh thy hurt?\n11 Behold this day thy eyes have seen, that the Lord hath delivered thee into my hand, in the cave, and I had a thought to kill thee, but my eye hath spared thee. For I said: I will not put out my hand against my lord, because he is the Lord's anointed.\n12 Moreover see and know, O my father, the hem of thy robe in my hand, that when I cut, off the hem of thy robe, I would not put out my hand against thee. Reflect, and see, that there is no evil in my hand, nor iniquity, neither have I sinned against thee: but thou liest in wait for my life, to take it away.\n13 The Lord judge between me and thee, and the Lord revenge me of thee: but my hand shall not be upon thee.\n14 As also it is said in the old proverb: From the wicked shall wickedness come forth: therefore my hand shall not be upon thee.

And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.\n18 And he said to David: Thou art more just than I: for thou hast done good to me, and I have rewarded thee with evil.\n19 And thou hast shewn this day what good things thou hast done to me: how the Lord delivered me into thy hand, and thou hast not killed me.\n20 For who when he hath found his enemy, will let him go well away? But the Lord reward thee for this good turn, for what thou hast done to me this day.\n21 And now as I know that thou shalt surely be king, and have the kingdom of Israel in thy hand:\n22 Swear to me by the Lord, that thou wilt not destroy my seed after me, nor take away my name from the house of my father.\n23 And David swore to Saul.

But the Moabites call them Emims.\n12 The Horrhites also formerly dwelt in Seir: who being driven out and destroyed, the children of Esau dwelt there, as Israel did in the land of his possession, which the Lord gave him.\n13 Then rising up to pass the torrent Zared, we came to it.\n14 And the time that we journeyed from Cadesbarne till we passed over the torrent Zared, was thirty-eight years: until all the generation of the men that were fit for war was consumed out of the camp, as the Lord had sworn:\n15 For his hand was against them, that they should perish from the midst of the camp.\n16 And after all the fighting men were dead,\n17 The Lord spoke to me, saying:\n18 Thou shalt pass this day the borders of Moab, the city named Ar:\n19 And when thou comest nigh the frontiers of the children of Ammon, take heed thou fight not against them, nor once move to battle: for I will not give thee of the land of the children of Ammon, because I have given it to the children of Lot for a possession.\n20 It was accounted a land of giants: and giants formerly dwelt in it, whom the Ammonites call Zomzommims,\n21 A people great and many, and of tall stature, like the Enacims whom the Lord destroyed before their face: and he made them to dwell in their stead,\n22 As he had done in favour of the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir, destroying the Horrhites, and delivering their land to them, which they possess to this day.\n23 The Hevites also, that dwelt in Haserim as far as Gaza, were expelled by the Cappadocians: who came out of Cappadocia, and destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead.\n24 Arise ye, and pass the torrent Arnon: Behold I have delivered into thy hand Sehon king of Hesebon the Amorrhite, and begin thou to possess his land and make war against him.\n25 This day will I begin to send the dread and fear of thee upon the nations that dwell under the whole heaven: that when they hear thy name they may fear and tremble, and be in pain like women in travail.\n26 So I sent messengers from the wilderness of Cademoth to Sehon the king of Hesebon with peaceable words, saying:\n27 We will pass through thy land, we will go along by the highway: we will not turn aside neither to the right hand nor to the left.\n28 Sell us meat for money, that we may eat: give us water for money and so we will drink.

For he that cometh to God, must believe that he is, and is a rewarder to them that seek him.\n7 By faith Noe, having received an answer concerning those things which as yet were not seen, moved with fear, framed the ark for the saving of his house, by the which he condemned the world; and was instituted heir of the justice which is by faith.\n8 By faith he that is called Abraham, obeyed to go out into a place which he was to receive for an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.\n9 By faith he abode in the land, dwelling in cottages, with Isaac and Jacob, the co-heirs of the same promise.\n10 For he looked for a city that hath foundations; whose builder and maker is God.\n11 By faith also Sara herself, being barren, received strength to conceive seed, even past the time of age; because she believed that he was faithful who had promised,\n12 For which cause there sprung even from one (and him as good as dead) as the stars of heaven in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.\n13 All these died according to faith, not having received the promises, but beholding them afar off, and saluting them, and confessing that they are pilgrims and strangers on the earth.\n14 For they that say these things, do signify that they seek a country.\n15 And truly if they had been mindful of that from whence they came out, they had doubtless time to return.\n16 But now they desire a better, that is to say, a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for he hath prepared for them a city.\n17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered Isaac: and he that had received the promises, offered up his only begotten son;\n18 (To whom it was said: In Isaac shall thy seed be called.)\n19 Accounting that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Whereupon also he received him for a parable.\n20 By faith also of things to come, Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau.\n21 By faith Jacob dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and adored the top of his rod.\n22 By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the going out of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.\n23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months by his parents; because they saw he was a comely babe, and they feared not the king's edict.\n24 By faith Moses, when he was grown up, denied himself to be the son of Pharao's daughter;\n25 Rather choosing to be afflicted with the people of God, than to have the pleasure of sin for a time,\n26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasure of the Egyptians. For he looked unto the reward.\n27 By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the fierceness of the king: for he endured as seeing him that is invisible.\n28 By faith he celebrated the pasch, and the shedding of the blood; that he, who destroyed the firstborn, might not touch them.\n29 By faith they passed through the Red Sea, as by dry land: which the Egyptians attempting, were swallowed up.\n30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, by the going round them seven days.\n31 By faith Rahab the harlot perished not with the unbelievers, receiving the spies with peace.\n32 And what shall I yet say?

Antiochus, surnamed the Illustrious, came up and took Ptolemais, and they received him, and he reigned there.\n2 And king Demetrius heard of it, and gathered together an exceeding great army, and went forth against him to fight.\n3 And Demetrius sent a letter to Jonathan with peaceable words, to magnify him.\n4 For he said: Let us first make a peace with him, before he make one with Alexander against us.\n5 For he will remember all the evils that we have done against him, and against his brother, and against his nation.\n6 And he gave him authority to gather together an army, and to make arms, and that he should be his confederate: and the hostages that were in the castle, he commanded to be delivered to him.\n7 And Jonathan came to Jerusalem, and read the letters in the hearing of all the people, and of them that were in the castle.\n8 And they were struck with great fear, because they heard that the king had given him authority to gather together an army.\n9 And the hostages were delivered to Jonathan, and he restored them to their parents.\n10 And Jonathan dwelt in Jerusalem, and began to build, and to repair the city.\n11 And he ordered workmen to build the walls, and mount Sion round about with square stones for fortification: and so they did.\n12 And the strangers that were in the strong holds, which Bacchides had built, fled away.\n13 And every man left his place, and departed into his own country:\n14 Only in Bethsura there remained some of them, that had forsaken the law, and the commandments of God: for this was a place of refuge for them.\n15 And king Alexander heard of the promises that Demetrius had made Jonathan: and they told him of the battles, and the worthy acts that he, and his brethren had done, and the labours that they had endured.\n16 And he said: Shall we find such another man? now therefore we will make him our friend and our confederate.\n17 So he wrote a letter, and sent it to him according to these words, saying:\n18 King Alexander to his brother Jonathan, greeting.\n19 We have heard of thee, that thou art a man of great power, and fit to be our friend:\n20 Now therefore we make thee this day high priest of thy nation, and that thou be called the king's friend, (and he sent him a purple robe, and a crown of gold,) and that thou be of one mind with us in our affairs, and keep friendship with us.\n21 Then Jonathan put on the holy vestment in the seventh month, in the year one hundred and threescore, at the feast day of the tabernacles: and he gathered together an army, and made a great number of arms.\n22 And Demetrius heard these words, and was exceeding sorry, and said:\n23 What is this that we have done, that Alexander hath prevented us to gain the friendship of the Jews to strengthen himself?\n24 I also will write to them words of request, and offer dignities, and gifts: that they may be with me to aid me.\n25 And he wrote to them in these words: King Demetrius to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n26 Whereas you have kept covenant with us, and have continued in our friendship, and have not joined with our enemies, we have heard of it, and are glad.\n27 Wherefore now continue still to keep fidelity towards us, and we will reward you with good things, for what you have done in our behalf.\n28 And we will remit to you many charges, and will give you gifts.\n29 And now I free you, and all the Jews from tributes, and I release you from the customs of salt, and remit the crowns, and the thirds of the seed:\n30 And the half of the fruit of trees, which is my share, I leave to you from this day forward, so that it shall not be taken of the land of Juda, and of the three cities that are added thereto out of Samaria and Galilee, from this day forth and for ever:\n31 And let Jerusalem be holy and free, with the borders thereof: and let the tenths, and tributes be for itself.\n32 I yield up also the power of the castle that is in Jerusalem, and I give it to the high priest, to place therein such men as he shall choose to keep it.\n33 And every soul of the Jews that hath been carried captive from the land of Juda in all my kingdom, I set at liberty freely, that all be discharged from tributes even of their cattle.\n34 And I will that all the feasts, and the sabbaths, and the new moons, and the days appointed, and three days before the solemn day, and three days after the solemn day, be all days of immunity and freedom, for all the Jews that are in my kingdom:\n35 And no man shall have power to do any thing against them, or to molest any of them, in any cause.\n36 And let there be enrolled in the king's army to the number of thirty thousand of the Jews: and allowance shall be made them as is due to all the king's forces, and certain of them shall be appointed to be in the fortresses of the great king:\n37 And some of them shall be set over the affairs of the kingdom, that are of trust, and let the governors be taken from among themselves, and let them walk in their own laws, as the king hath commanded in the land of Juda.\n38 And the three cities that are added to Judea, out of the country of Samaria, let them be accounted with Judea: that they may be under one, and obey no other authority but that of the high priest:\n39 Ptolemais, and the confines thereof, I give as a free gift to the holy places, that are in Jerusalem, for the necessary charges of the holy things.\n40 And I give every year fifteen thousand sicles of silver out of the king's accounts, of what belongs to me:\n41 And all that is above, which they that were over the affairs the years before, had not paid, from this time they shall give it to the works of the house.\n42 Moreover the five thousand sicles of silver which they received from the account of the holy places, every year, shall also belong to the priests that execute the ministry.\n43 And whosoever shall flee into the temple that is in Jerusalem, and in all the borders thereof, being indebted to the king for any matter, let them be set at liberty, and all that they have in my kingdom, let them have it free.\n44 For the building also, or repairing the works of the holy places, the charges shall be given out of the king's revenues:\n45 For the building also of the walls of Jerusalem, and the fortifying thereof round about, the charges shall be given out of the king's account, as also for the building of the walls in Judea.\n46 Now when Jonathan, and the people heard these words, they gave no credit to them nor received them: because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel, for he had afflicted them exceedingly.\n47 And their inclinations were towards Alexander, because he had been the chief promoter of peace in their regard, and him they always helped.\n48 And king Alexander gathered together a great army, and moved his camp near to Demetrius.\n49 And the two kings joined battle, and the army of Demetrius fled away, and Alexander pursued after him, and pressed them close.\n50 And the battle was hard fought till the sun went down: and Demetrius was slain that day.\n51 And Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemee king of Egypt, with words to this effect, saying:\n52 Forasmuch as I am returned into my kingdom, and am set in the throne of my ancestors and have gotten the dominion, and have overthrown Demetrius, and possessed our country,\n53 And have joined battle with him, and both he and his army have been destroyed by us, and we are placed in the throne of his kingdom:\n54 Now therefore let us make friendship one with another: and give me now thy daughter to wife, and I will be thy son in law, and I will give both thee and her gifts worthy of thee.\n55 And king Ptolemee answered, saying: Happy is the day wherein thou didst return to the land of thy fathers, and sattest in the throne of their kingdom.\n56 And now I will do to thee as thou hast written: but meet me at Ptolemais, that we may see one another, and I may give her to thee as thou hast said.\n57 So Ptolemee went out of Egypt, with Cleopatra his daughter, and he came to Ptolemais in the hundred and sixty-second year.\n58 And king Alexander met him, and he gave him his daughter Cleopatra: and he celebrated her marriage at Ptolemais, with great glory, after the manner of kings.\n59 And king Alexander wrote to Jonathan, that he should come and meet him.\n60 And he went honourably to Ptolemais, and he met there the two kings, and he gave them much silver, and gold, and presents: and he found favour in their sight.\n61 And some pestilent men of Israel, men of a wicked life, assembled themselves against him to accuse him: and the king gave no heed to them.\n62 And he commanded that Jonathan's garments should be taken off, and that he should be clothed with purple: and they did so. And the king made him sit by himself.\n63 And he said to his princes: Go out with him into the midst of the city, and make proclamation, that no man complain against him of any matter, and that no man trouble him for any manner of cause.\n64 So when his accusers saw his glory proclaimed, and him clothed with purple, they all fled away.\n65 And the king magnified him, and enrolled him amongst his chief friends, and made him governor and partaker of his dominion.\n66 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with peace and joy.\n67 In the year one hundred and sixty-five Demetrius the son of Demetrius came from Crete into the land of his fathers.\n68 And king Alexander heard of it, and was much troubled, and returned to Antioch.\n69 And king Demetrius made Apollonius his general, who was governor of Celesyria: and he gathered together a great army, and came to Jamnia: and he sent to Jonathan the high priest,\n70 Saying: Thou alone standest against us, and I am laughed at, and reproached, because thou shewest thy power against us in the mountains.\n71 Now therefore if thou trustest in thy forces, come down to us into the plain, and there let us try one another: for with me is the strength of war.\n72 Ask, and learn who I am, and the rest that help me, who also say that your foot cannot stand before our face, for thy fathers have twice been put to flight in their own land:\n73 And now how wilt thou be able to abide the horsemen, and so great an army in the plain, where there is no stone, nor rock, nor place to flee to?\n74 Now when Jonathan heard the words of Apollonius, he was moved in his mind: and he chose ten thousand men, and went out of Jerusalem, and Simon his brother met him to help him.\n**75 And they pitched their tents near Joppe, but they shut him out of the city: because a garrison of Apollonius was in Joppe, and he laid siege to it.**\n76 And they that were in the city being affrighted, opened the gates to him: so Jonathan took Joppe.\n77 And Apollonius heard of it, and he took three thousand horsemen, and a great army.\n78 And he went to Azotus as one that was making a journey, and immediately he went forth into the plain: because he had a great number of horsemen, and he trusted in them. And Jonathan followed after him to Azotus, and they joined battle.\n79 And Apollonius left privately in the camp a thousand horsemen behind them.\n80 And Jonathan knew that there was an ambush behind him, and they surrounded his army, and cast darts at the people from morning till evening.\n81 But the people stood still, as Jonathan had commanded them: and so their horses were fatigued.\n82 Then Simon drew forth his army, and attacked the legion: for the horsemen were wearied: and they were discomfited by him, and fled.\n83 And they that were scattered about the plain, fled into Azotus, and went into Bethdagon their idol's temple, there to save themselves.\n84 But Jonathan set fire to Azotus, and the cities that were around it, and took the spoils of them, and the temple of Dagon: and all them that were fled into it, he burnt with fire.\n85 So they that were slain by the sword, with them that were burnt, were almost eight thousand men.\n86 And Jonathan removed his army from thence, and camped against Ascalon: and they went out of the city to meet him with great honour.\n87 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with his people, having many spoils.\n88 And it came to pass: When Alexander the king heard these words, that he honoured Jonathan yet more.\n89 And he sent him a buckle of gold, as the custom is, to be given to such as are of the royal blood. And he gave him Accaron and all the borders thereof in possession.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the reference (book, chapter, verse) for \"If then any be in Christ a new creature, the old things are passed away, behold all things are made new.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The quote \"If then any be in Christ a new creature, the old things are passed away, behold all things are made new.\" is from 2 Corinthians 5:17 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"Take heed to yourselves, and to the whole flock, wherein the Holy Ghost hath placed you bishops, to rule the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The quote \"Take heed to yourselves, and to the whole flock, wherein the Holy Ghost hath placed you bishops, to rule the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.\" is from Acts 20:28 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're asking about is in *Ezekiel*, chapter *17*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*Ezekiel Chapter 17*\n**1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:**\n2 Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable to the house of Israel,\n3 And say: Thus saith the Lord God: A large eagle with great wings, long-limbed, full of feathers, and of variety, came to Libanus, and took away the marrow of the cedar.\n4 He cropped off the top of the twigs thereof: and carried it away into the land of Chanaan, and he set it in a city of merchants.\n5 And he took of the seed of the land, and put it in the ground for seed, that it might take a firm root over many waters: he planted it on the surface of the earth.\n6 And it sprung up and grew into a spreading vine of low stature, and the branches thereof looked towards him: and the roots thereof were under him. So it became a vine, and grew into branches, and shot forth sprigs.\n7 And there was another large eagle, with great wings, and many feathers: and behold this vine, bending as it were her roots towards him, stretched forth her branches to him, that he might water it by the furrows of her plantation.\n8 It was planted in a good ground upon many waters, that it might bring forth branches, and bear fruit, that it might become a large vine.\n9 Say thou: Thus saith the Lord God: Shall it prosper then? shall he not pull up the roots thereof, and strip off its fruit, and dry up all the branches it hath shot forth, and make it wither: and this without a strong arm, or many people, to pluck it up by the root?\n10 Behold, it is planted: shall it prosper then? shall it not be dried up when the burning wind shall touch it, and shall it not wither in the furrows where it grew?\n11 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:\n12 Say to the provoking house: Know you not what these things mean? Tell them: Behold the king of Babylon cometh to Jerusalem: and he shall take away the king and the princes thereof, and carry them with him to Babylon.\n13 And he shall take one of the king's seed, and make a covenant with him, and take an oath of him.

And Jehu said: Unto whom of us all?

Now Joram had besieged Ramoth Galaad, he and all Israel fighting with Hazael king of Syria:\n15 And was returned to be healed in Jezrahel of his wounds, for the Syrians had wounded him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Jehu said: If it please you, let no man go forth or flee out of the city, lest he go, and tell in Jezrahel.\n16 And he got up, and went into Jezrahel: for Joram was sick there, and Ochozias king of Juda was come down to visit Joram.\n17 The watchmen therefore, that stood upon the tower of Jezrahel, saw the troop of Jehu coming, and said: I see a troop. And Joram said: Take a chariot, and send to meet them, and let him that goeth say: Is all well?\n18 So there went one in a chariot to meet him, and said: Thus saith the king: Are all things peaceable? And Jehu said: What hast thou to do with peace? go behind and follow me. And the watchman told, saying: The messenger came to them, but he returneth not.\n19 And he sent a second chariot of horses: and he came to them, and said: Thus saith the king: Is there peace?

And they made ready his chariot, and Joram king of Israel, and Ochozias king of Juda went out, each in his chariot, and they went out to meet Jehu, and met him in the field of Naboth the Jezrahelite.\n22 And when Joram saw Jehu, he said: Is there peace, Jehu? And he answered: What peace? so long as the fornications of Jezabel thy mother, and her many sorceries are in their vigour.\n23 And Joram turned his hand, and fleeing, said to Ochozias: There is treachery, Ochozias.\n24 But Jehu bent Iris bow with his hand, and shot Joram between the shoulders: and the arrow went out through his heart, and immediately he fell in his chariot.\n25 And Jehu said to Badacer his captain: Take him, and cast him into the field of Naboth the Jezrahelite: for I remember when I and thou sitting in a chariot followed Achab this man's father, that the Lord laid this burden upon him, saying:\n26 If I do not requite thee in this field, saith the Lord, for the blood of Naboth, and for the blood of his children, which I saw yesterday, saith the Lord. So now take him, and cast him into the field, according to the word of the Lord.\n27 But Ochozias king of Juda seeing this, fled by the way of the garden house: and Jehu pursued him, and said: Strike him also in his chariot. And they struck him in the going up to Gaver, which is by Jeblaam: and he fled into Mageddo, and died there.\n28 And his servants laid him upon his chariot, and carried him to Jerusalem: and they buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David.\n29 In the eleventh year of Joram the son of Achab, Ochozias reigned over Juda,\n30 And Jehu came into Jezrahel. But Jezabel hearing of his coming in, painted her face with stibic stone, and adorned her head, and looked out of a window\n31 At Jehu coming in at the gate, and said: Can there be peace for Zambri, that hath killed his master?\n32 And Jehu lifted up his face to the window, and said: Who is this?

And one said to the other:\n13 Let us now go home, for it is dinner time. So going out they departed one from another.\n14 And turning back again, they came both to the same place: and asking one another the cause, they acknowledged their lust; and then they agreed upon a time, when they might find her alone.\n15 And it fell out, as they watched a fit day, she went in on a time, as yesterday and the day before, with two maids only, and was desirous to wash herself in the orchard: for it was hot weather.\n16 And there was nobody there, but the two old men that had hid themselves and were beholding her.\n17 So she said to the maids: Bring me oil, and washing balls, and shut the doors of the orchard, that I may wash me.\n18 And they did as she bade them: and they shut the doors of the orchard, and went out by a back door to fetch what she had commanded them, and they knew not that the elders were hid within.\n19 Now when the maids were gone forth, the two elders arose, and ran to her, and said:\n20 Behold the doors of the orchard are shut, and nobody seeth us, and we are in love with thee: wherefore consent to us, and lie with us.\n21 But if thou wilt not, we will bear witness against thee, that a young man was with thee, and therefore thou didst send away thy maids from thee.\n22 Susanna sighed, and said: I am straitened on every side: for if I do this thing, it is death to me: and if I do it not, I shall not escape your hands.\n23 But it is better for me to fall into your hands without doing it, than to sin in the sight of the Lord.\n24 With that Susanna cried out with a loud voice: and the elders also cried out against her.\n25 And one of them ran to the door of the orchard, and opened it.\n26 So when the servants of the house heard the cry in the orchard, they rushed in by the back door to see what was the matter.\n27 But after the old men had spoken, the servants were greatly ashamed: for never had there been any such word said of Susanna. And on the next day,\n28 When the people were come to Joakim her husband, the two elders also came full of wicked device against Susanna, to put her to death.\n29 And they said before the people: Send to Susanna daughter of Helcias the wife of Joakim. And presently they sent.\n30 And she came with her parents, and children, and all her kindred.\n31 Now Susanna was exceeding delicate, and beautiful to behold.\n32 But those wicked men commanded that her face should be uncovered, (for she was covered,) that so at least they might be satisfied with her beauty.\n33 Therefore her friends and all her acquaintance wept.\n34 But the two elders rising up in the midst of the people, laid their hands upon her head.\n35 And she weeping looked up to heaven, for her heart had confidence in the Lord.\n36 And the elders said: As we walked in the orchard alone, this woman came in with two maids, and shut the doors of the orchard, and sent away the maids from her.\n37 Then a young man that was there hid came to her, and lay with her.\n38 But we that were in a corner of the orchard, seeing this wickedness, ran up to them, and we saw them lie together.\n39 And him indeed we could not take, because he was stronger than us, and opening the doors he leaped out:\n40 But having taken this woman, we asked who the young man was, but she would not tell us: of this thing we are witnesses.\n41 The multitude believed them as being the elders and the judges of the people, and they condemned her to death.\n42 Then Susanna cried out with a loud voice, and said: O eternal God, who knowest hidden things, who knowest all things before they come to pass,\n43 Thou knowest that they have borne false witness against me: and behold I must die, whereas I have done none of these things, which these men have maliciously forged against me.\n44 And the Lord heard her voice.\n45 And when she was led to be put to death, the Lord raised up the holy spirit of a young boy, whose name was Daniel.\n46 And he cried out with a loud voice I am clear from the blood of this woman.\n47 Then all the people turning themselves towards him, said: What meaneth this word that thou hast spoken?\n48 But he standing in the midst of them, said: Are ye so foolish, ye children of Israel, that without examination or knowledge of the truth, you have condemned a daughter of Israel?\n49 Return to judgment, for they have borne false witness against her.\n50 So all the people turned again in haste, and the old men said to him: Come, and sit thou down among us, and shew it us: seeing God hath given thee the honour of old age.\n51 And Daniel said to the people: Separate these two far from one another, and I will examine them.\n52 So when they were put asunder one from the other, he called one of them, and said to him: O thou that art grown old in evil days, now are thy sins come out, which thou hast committed before:\n53 In judging unjust judgments, oppressing the innocent, and letting the guilty to go free, whereas the Lord saith: The innocent and the just thou shalt not kill.\n54 Now then, if thou sawest her, tell me under what tree thou sawest them conversing together. He said: Under a mastic tree.\n55 And Daniel said: Well hast thou lied against thy own head: for behold the angel of God having received the sentence of him, shall cut thee in two.\n56 And having put him aside, he commanded that the other should come, and he said to him: O thou seed of Chanaan, and not of Juda, beauty hath deceived thee, and lust hath perverted thy heart:\n57 Thus did you do to the daughters of Israel, and they for fear conversed with you: but a daughter of Juda would not abide your wickedness.\n58 Now therefore tell me, under what tree didst thou take them conversing together. And he answered: Under a holm tree.\n59 And Daniel said to him: Well hast thou also lied against thy own head: for the angel of the Lord waiteth with a sword to cut thee in two, and to destroy you.\n60 With that all the assembly cried out with a loud voice, and they blessed God, who saveth them that trust in him.\n61 And they rose up against the two elders, (for Daniel had convicted them of false witness by their own mouth,) and they did to them as they had maliciously dealt against their neighbour,\n62 To fulfill the law of Moses: and they put them to death, and innocent blood was saved in that day.\n63 But Helcias and his wife praised God, for their daughter Susanna, with Joakim her husband, and all her kindred, because there was no dishonesty found in her.\n64 And Daniel became great in the sight of the people from that day, and thenceforward.\n65 And king Astyages was gathered to his fathers, and Cyrus the Persian received his kingdom.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you pinpoint the book and chapter of \"And when forty days were passed, and as many nights, the Lord gave me the two tables of stone, the tables of the covenant,\" for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're asking about is in *Deuteronomy*, chapter *9*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*Deuteronomy Chapter 9*\n1 Hear, O Israel: Thou shalt go over the Jordan this day; to possess nations very great, and stronger than thyself, cities great, and walled up to the sky,\n2 A People great and tall, the sons of the Enacims, whom thou hast seen, and heard of, against whom no man is able to stand.\n3 Thou shalt know therefore this day that the Lord thy God himself will pass over before thee, a devouring and consuming fire, to destroy and extirpate and bring them to nothing before thy face quickly, as he hath spoken to thee.\n4 Say not in thy heart, when the Lord thy God shall have destroyed them in thy sight: For my justice hath the Lord brought me in to possess this land, whereas these nations are destroyed for their wickedness.\n5 For it is not for thy justices, and the uprightness of thy heart that thou shalt go in to possess their lands: but because they have done wickedly, they are destroyed at thy coming in: and that the Lord might accomplish his word, which he promised by oath to thy fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.\n6 Know therefore that the Lord thy God giveth thee not this excellent land in possession for thy justices, for thou art a very stiffnecked people.\n7 Remember, and forget not how then provokedst the Lord thy God to wrath in the wilderness.

families of the children of Israel were assembled to king Solomon in Jerusalem: that they might carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, that is, out of Sion.\n2 And all Israel assembled themselves to king Solomon on the festival day in the month of Ethanim, the same is the seventh month.\n3 And all the ancients of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark,\n4 And carried the ark of the Lord, and the tabernacle of the covenant, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, that were in the tabernacle: and the priests and the Levites carried them.\n5 And king Solomon, and all the multitude of Israel, that were assembled unto him went with him before the ark, and they sacrificed sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered.\n6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, into the oracle of the temple, into the holy of holies under the wings of the cherubims.\n7 For the cherubims spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and covered the art, and the staves thereof above.\n8 And whereas the staves stood out, the ends of them were seen without in the sanctuary before the oracle, but were not seen farther out, and there they have been unto this day.\n9 Now in the ark there was nothing else but the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the sanctuary, that a cloud filled the house of the Lord,\n11 And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of the Lord.\n12 Then Solomon said: The Lord said that he would dwell in a cloud.\n13 Building I have built a house for thy dwelling, to be thy most firm throne for ever.\n14 And the king turned his face, and blessed all the assembly of Israel: for all the assembly of Israel stood.\n15 And Solomon said: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father, and with his own hands hath accomplished it, saying:\n16 Since the day that I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel, for a house to be built, that my name might be there: but I chose David to be over my people Israel.\n17 And David my father would have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel:\n18 And the Lord said to David my father: Whereas thou hast thought in thy heart to build a house to my name, thou hast done well in having this same thing in thy mind.\n19 Nevertheless thou shalt not build me a house, but thy son, that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build a house to my name.\n20 The Lord hath performed his word which he spoke: and I stand in the room of David my father, and sit upon the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised: and have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel.\n21 And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with our fathers, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n22 And Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in the sight of the assembly of Israel, and spread forth his hands towards heaven;\n23 And said: Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heaven above, or on earth beneath: who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that have walked before thee with all their heart.\n**24 Who hast kept with thy servant David my father what thou hast promised him: with thy mouth thou didst speak, and with thy hands thou hast performed, as this day proveth.**\n25 Now therefore, O Lord God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father what thou hast spoken to him, saying: There shall not be taken away of thee a man in my sight, to sit on the throne of Israel: yet so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked in my sight.\n26 And now, Lord God of Israel, let thy words be established, which thou hast spoken to thy servant David my father.\n27 Is it then to be thought that God should indeed dwell upon earth? for if heaven, and the heavens of heavens cannot contain thee, how much less this house which I have built?\n28 But have regard to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, O Lord my God: hear the hymn and the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee this day:\n29 That thy eyes may be open upon this house night and day: upon the house of which thou hast said: My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth in this place to thee.\n30 That thou mayest hearken to the supplication of thy servant and of thy people Israel, whatsoever they shall pray for in this place, and hear them in the place of thy dwelling in heaven; and when thou hearest, shew them mercy.\n31 If any man trespass against his neighbour, and have an oath upon him, wherewith he is bound: and come because of the oath before thy altar to thy house,\n32 Then hear thou in heaven: and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, and bringing his way upon his own head, and justifying the just, and rewarding him according to his justice.\n33 If thy people Israel shall fly before their enemies, (because they will sin against thee,) and doing penance, and confessing to thy name, shall come, and pray, and make supplications to thee in this house:\n34 Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them back to the land which thou gavest to their fathers.\n35 If heaven shall be shut up, and there shall be no rain, because of their sins, and they praying in this place, shall do penance to thy name, and shall be converted from their sins, by occasion of their afflictions:\n36 Then hear thou them in heaven, and forgive the sins of thy servants, and of thy people Israel: and shew them the good way wherein they should walk, and give rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people in possession.\n37 If a famine arise in the land, or a pestilence, or corrupt air, or blasting, or locust, or mildew, if their enemy afflict them besieging the gates, whatsoever plague, whatsoever infirmity,\n38 Whatsoever curse or imprecation shall happen to any man of thy people Israel: when a man shall know the wound of his own heart, and shall spread forth his hands in this house,\n39 Then hear thou in heaven, in the place of thy dwelling, and forgive, and do so as to give to every one according to his ways, as thou shalt see his heart (for thou only knowest the heart of all the children of men)\n40 That they may fear thee all the days that they live upon the face of the land, which thou hast given to our fathers.\n41 Moreover also the stranger, who is not of thy people Israel, when he shall come out of a far country for thy name's sake, (for they shall hear everywhere of thy great name and thy mighty hand,\n42 And thy stretched out arm,) so when he shall come, and shall pray in this place,\n43 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy dwelling place, and do all those things, for which that stranger shall call upon thee: that all the people of the earth may learn to fear thy name, as do thy people Israel, and may prove that thy name is called upon on this house, which I have built.\n44 If thy people go out to war against their enemies, by what way soever thou shalt send them, they shall pray to thee towards the way of the city, which thou hast chosen, and towards the house, which I have built to thy name:\n45 And then hear thou in heaven their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them.\n46 But if they sin against thee (for there is no man who sinneth not) and thou being angry deliver them up to their enemies, so that they be led away captives into the land of their enemies far or near;\n47 Then if they do penance in their heart in the place of captivity, and being converted make supplication to thee in their captivity, saying: We have sinned, we have done unjustly, we have committed wickedness:\n48 And return to thee with all their heart, and all their soul, in the land of their enemies, to which they had been led captives: and pray to thee towards the way of their land, which thou gavest to their fathers, and of the city which thou hast chosen, and of the temple which I have built to thy name:\n49 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy throne, their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them:\n50 And forgive thy people, that have sinned against thee, and all their iniquities, by which they have transgressed against thee: and give them mercy before them that have made them captives, that they may have compassion on them.\n51 For they are thy people, and thy inheritance, whom thou hast brought out of the land of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron.\n52 That thy eyes may be open to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, to hear them in all things for which they shall call upon thee.\n53 For thou hast separated them to thyself for an inheritance from among all the people of the earth, as thou hast spoken by Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord God.\n54 And it came to pass, when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication to the Lord, that he rose from before the altar of the Lord: for he had fixed both knees on the ground, and had spread his hands towards heaven.\n55 And he stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a, loud voice, saying:\n56 Blessed be the Lord, who hath given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed so much as one word of all the good things that he promised by his servant Moses.\n57 The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our fathers, and not leave us, nor cast us off:\n58 But may he incline our hearts to himself, that we may walk in all his ways, and keep his commandments, and his ceremonies, and all his judgments which he commanded our fathers.\n59 And let these my words, wherewith I have prayed before the Lord, he nigh unto the Lord our God day and night, that he may do judgment for his servant, and for his people Israel day by day:\n60 That all the people of the earth may know, that the Lord he is God, and there is no other besides him.\n61 Let our hearts also be perfect with the Lord our God, that we may walk in his statutes, and keep his commandments, as at this day.\n62 And the king, and all Israel him, offered victims before the Lord.\n63 And Solomon slew victims of peace offerings, which he sacrificed to the Lord, two and twenty thousand oxen, and hundred and twenty thousand sheep: so the king, and the children of Israel dedicated the temple of the Lord.\n64 In that day the king sanctified the middle of the court that was before the house of the Lord: for there he offered the holocaust, and sacrifice, and fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar that was before the Lord, was too little to receive the holocaust, and sacrifice, and fat of the peace offerings.\n65 And Solomon made at the same time a solemn feast, and all Israel with him, a great multitude from the entrance of Emath to the river of Egypt, before the Lord our God, seven days and seven days, that is, fourteen days.\n66 And on the eighth day he sent away the people: and they blessed the king, and went to their dwellings rejoicing, and glad in heart for all the good things that the Lord had done for David his servant, and for Israel his people.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does it say in 1 Samuel chapter 17 verse 14?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**Old Testament**\n*1 Samuel 17:14 (Douay

But as we know not what to do, we can only turn our eyes to thee.\n13 And all Juda stood before the Lord with their little ones, and their wives, and their children.\n14 And Jahaziel the son of Zacharias, the son of Banaias, the son of Jehiel, the son of Mathanias, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, was there, upon whom the spirit of the Lord came in the midst of the multitude,\n15 And he said: Attend ye, all Juda, and you that dwell in Jerusalem, and thou king Josaphat: Thus saith the Lord to you: Fear ye not, and be not dismayed at this multitude: for the battle is not yours, but God's.\n16 To morrow you shall go down against them: for they will come up by the ascent named Sis, and you shall find them at the head of the torrent, which is over against the wilderness of Jeruel.\n17 It shall not be you that shall fight, but only stand with confidence, and you shall see the help of the Lord over you, O Juda, and Jerusalem: fear ye not, nor be you dismayed: to morrow you shall go out against them, and the Lord will be with you.\n18 Then Josaphat, and Juda, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell hat on the ground before the Lord, and adored him.\n19 And the Levites of the sons of Caath, and of the sons of Core praised the Lord the God of Israel with a loud voice, on high.\n20 And they rose early in the morning, and went out through the desert of Thecua: and as they were marching, Josaphat standing in the midst of them, said: Hear me, ye men of Juda, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: believe in the Lord your God, and you shall be secure: believe his prophets, and all things shall succeed well.\n21 And he gave counsel to the people, and appointed the singing men of the Lord, to praise him by their companies, and to go before the army, and with one voice to say: Give glory to the Lord, for his mercy endureth for ever.\n22 And when they began to sing praises, the Lord turned their ambushments upon themselves, that is to say, of the children of Ammon, and of Moab, and of mount Seir, who were come out to fight against Juda, and they were slain.\n23 For the children of Ammon, and of Moab, rose up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, to kill and destroy them: and when they had made an end of them, they turned also against one another, and destroyed one another.\n24 And when Juda came to the watch tower, that looketh toward the desert, they saw afar off all the country, for a great space, full of dead bodies, and that no one was left that could escape death.\n25 Then Josaphat came, and all the people with him to take away the spoils of the dead, and they found among the dead bodies, stuff of various kinds, and garments, and most precious vessels: and they took them for themselves, insomuch that they could not carry all, nor in three days take away the spoils, the booty was so great.\n26 And on the fourth day they were assembled in the valley of Blessing: for there they blessed the Lord, and therefore they called that place the valley of Blessing until this day.\n27 And every man of Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem returned, and Josaphat at their head, into Jerusalem with great joy, because the Lord had made them rejoice over their enemies.\n28 And they came into Jerusalem with psalteries, and harps, and trumpets into the house of the Lord.\n29 And the fear of the Lord fell upon all the kingdoms of the lands when they heard that the Lord had fought against the enemies of Israel.\n**30 And the kingdom of Josaphat was quiet, and God gave him peace round about.**\n31 And Josaphat reigned over Juda, and he was five and thirty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned five and twenty years in Jerusalem: and the name of his mother was Azuba the daughter of Selahi.\n32 And he walked in the way of his father Asa, and departed not from it, doing the things that were pleasing before the Lord.\n33 But yet he took not away the high places, and the people had not yet turned their heart to the Lord the God of their fathers.\n34 But the rest of the acts of Josaphat, first and last, are written in the words of Jehu the son of Hanani, which he digested into the books of the kings of Israel.\n35 After these things Josaphat king of Juda made friendship with Ochozias king of Israel, whose works were very wicked.\n36 And he was partner with him in making ships, to go to Tharsis: and they made the ships in Asiongaber.\n37 And Eliezer the son of Dodau of Maresa prophesied to Josaphat, saying: Because thou hast made a league with Ochozias, the Lord hath destroyed thy works, and the ships are broken, and they could not go to Tharsis.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"Wherein also I labour, striving according to his working which

And the Philistines came to Aphec,\n2 And put their army in array against Israel. And when they had joined battle, Israel turned their backs to the Philistines, and there was slain in that fight here and there in the fields about four thousand men.\n3 And the people returned to the camp: and the ancients of Israel said: Why hath the Lord defeated us to day before the Philistines? Let us fetch unto us the ark of the covenant of the Lord from Silo, and let it come in the midst of us, that it may save us from the hand of our enemies.\n4 So the people sent to Silo, and they brought from thence the ark of the covenant of the Lord of hosts sitting upon the cherubims: and the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were with the ark of the covenant of God.\n5 And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord was come into the camp, all Israel shouted with a great shout, and the earth rang again.\n6 And the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, and they said: What is this noise of a great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of the Lord was come into the camp.\n7 And the Philistines were afraid, saying: God is come into the camp. And sighing, they said:\n8 Woe to us: for there was no such great joy yesterday and the day before: Woe to us. Who shall deliver us from the hand of these high gods? these are the gods that struck Egypt with all the plagues in the desert.\n9 Take courage and behave like men, ye Philistines: lest you come to be servants to the Hebrews, as they have served you: take courage and fight.\n10 So the Philistines fought, and Israel was overthrown, and every man fled to his own dwelling: and there was an exceeding great slaughter; for there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen.\n11 And the ark of God was taken: and the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were slain.\n12 And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the army, and came to Silo the same day, with his clothes rent, and his head strewed with dust.\n13 And when he was come, Heli sat upon a stool over against the way watching. For his heart was fearful for the ark of God. And when the man was come into the city, he told it: and all the city cried out.\n14 And Heli heard the noise of the cry, and he said: What meaneth the noise of this uproar? But he made haste, and came, and told Heli.\n15 Now Heli was ninety and eight years old, and his eyes were dim, and he could not see.\n16 And he said to Heli: I am he that came from the battle, and have fled out of the field this day. And he said to him: What is there done, my son?\n17 And he that brought the news answered, and said: Israel has fled before the Philistines, and there has been a great slaughter of the people: moreover thy two sons, Ophni and Phinees, are dead: and the ark of God is taken.\n18 And when he had named the ark of God, he fell from his stool backwards by the door, and broke his neck, and died.

And quickly she let down the pitcher upon her arm, and gave him drink.\n19 And when he had drunk, she said: I will draw water for thy camels also, till they all drink.\n20 And pouring out the pitcher into the troughs, she ran back to the well to draw water: and having drawn she gave to all the camels.\n21 But he musing beheld her with silence, desirous to know whether the Lord had made his journey prosperous or not.\n22 And after that the camels had drunk, the man took out golden earrings, weighing two sicles: and as many bracelets of ten sicles weight.\n23 And he said to her: Whose daughter art thou? tell me: is there any place in thy father's house to lodge?\n24 And she answered: I am the daughter of Bathuel, the son of Melcha, whom she bore to Nachor.\n25 And she said moreover to him: We have good store of both straw and hay, and a large place to lodge in.\n26 The man bowed himself down, and adored the Lord,\n27 Saying: Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, who hath not taken away his mercy and truth from my master, and hath brought me the straight way into the house of my master's brother.\n28 Then the maid ran, and told in her mother's house, all that she had heard.\n29 And Rebecca had a brother named Laban, who went out in haste to the man, to the well.\n30 And when he had seen the earrings and bracelets in his sister's hands, and had heard all that she related, saying: Thus and thus the man spoke to me: he came to the man who stood by the camels, and near to the spring of water,\n31 And said to him: Come in, thou blessed of the Lord: why standest thou without? I have prepared the house, and a place for the camels.\n32 And he brought him in into his lodging: and he unharnessed the camels and gave straw and hay, and water to wash his feet, and the feet of the men that were come with him.\n33 And bread was set before him. But he said: I will not eat, till I tell my message. He answered him: Speak.\n34 And he said: I am the servant of Abraham:\n35 And the Lord hath blessed my master wonderfully, and he is become great: and he hath given him sheep and oxen, silver and gold, menservants and womenservants, camels and asses.\n36 And Sara my master's wife hath borne my master a son in her old age, and he hath given him all that he had.\n37 And my master made me swear, saying: Thou shalt not take a wife for my son of the Chanaanites, in whose land I dwell:\n38 But thou shalt go to my father's house, and shalt take a wife of my own kindred for my son:\n39 But I answered my master: What if the woman will not come with me?\n40 The Lord, said he, in whose sight I walk, will send his angel with thee, and will direct thy way: and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my own kindred, and of my father's house.\n41 But thou shalt be clear from my curse, when thou shalt come to my kindred, if they will not give thee one.\n42 And I came to day to the well of water, and said: O Lord God of my master Abraham, if thou hast prospered my way, wherein I now walk,\n43 Behold I stand by the well of water, and the virgin, that shall come out to draw water, who shall hear me say: Give me a little water to drink of thy pitcher:\n44 And shall say to me: Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels: let the same be the woman, whom the Lord hath prepared for my master's son.\n45 And whilst I pondered these things secretly with myself, Rebecca appeared coming with a pitcher, which she carried on her shoulder: and she went down to the well and drew water. And I said to her: Give me a little to drink.\n46 And she speedily let down the pitcher from her shoulder, and said to me: Both drink thou, and to thy camels I will give drink. I drank, and she watered the camels.\n47 And I asked her, and said: Whose daughter art thou? And she answered: I am the daughter of Bathuel, the son of Nachor, whom Melcha bore to him. So I put earrings on her to adorn her face, and I put bracelets on her hands.\n48 And falling down I adored the Lord, blessing the Lord God of my master Abraham, who hath brought me the straight way to take the daughter of my master's brother for his son.\n49 Wherefore if you do according to mercy and truth with my master, tell me: but if it please you otherwise, tell me that also, that I may go to the right hand, or to the left.\n50 And Laban and Bathuel answered: The word hath proceeded from the Lord, we cannot speak any other thing to thee but his pleasure.\n51 Behold Rebecca is before thee, take her and go thy way, and let her be the wife of thy master's son, as the Lord hath spoken.\n52 Which when Abraham's servant heard, falling down to the ground he adored the Lord.\n53 And bringing forth vessels of silver and gold, and garments, he gave them to Rebecca for a present. He offered gifts also to her brothers, and to her mother.\n54 And a banquet was made, and they ate and drank together, and lodged there. And in the morning, the servant arose, and said: Let me depart, that I may go to my master.\n55 And her brother and mother answered: Let the maid stay at least ten days with us, and afterwards she shall depart.\n56 Stay me not, said he, because the Lord hath prospered my way: send me away, that I may go to my master.\n57 And they said: Let us call the maid, and ask her will.\n58 And they called her, and when she was come, they asked: Wilt thou go with this man?

Believest thou this?\n27 She saith to him: Yea, Lord, I have believed that thou art Christ the Son of the living God, who art come into this world.\n28 And when she had said these things, she went, and called her sister Mary secretly, saying: The master is come, and calleth for thee.\n29 She, as soon as she heard this, riseth quickly, and cometh to him.\n30 For Jesus was not yet come into the town: but he was still in that place where Martha had met him.\n31 The Jews therefore, who were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary that she rose up speedily and went out, followed her, saying: She goeth to the grave to weep there.\n32 When Mary therefore was come where Jesus was, seeing him, she fell down at his feet, and saith to him: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.\n33 Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews that were come with her, weeping, groaned in the spirit, and troubled himself,\n34 And said: Where have you laid him?

And whereas he saith,\n27 All things are put under him; undoubtedly, he is excepted, who put all things under him.\n28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then the Son also himself shall be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.\n29 Otherwise what shall they do that are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not again at all? why are they then baptized for them?\n30 Why also are we in danger every hour?\n31 I die daily, I protest by your glory, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.\n32 If (according to man) I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what doth it profit me, if the dead rise not again?

We shall all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be changed.\n52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall rise again incorruptible: and we shall be changed.\n53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption; and this mortal must put on immortality.\n54 And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.\n55 O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?\n56 Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law.\n57 But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.\n58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast and unmoveable; always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and chapter does \"So Jonathan rose from the table in great anger, and did not eat bread on the second day after the new moon.

And David said: Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thy sight, and he will say: Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved. But truly as the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, there is but one step (as I may say) between me and death.\n4 And Jonathan said to David: Whatsoever thy soul shall say to me, I will do for thee.\n5 And David said to Jonathan: Behold to morrow is the new moon, and I according to custom am wont to sit beside the king to eat: let me go then that I may be hid in the field till the evening of the third day.\n6 If thy father look and inquire for me, thou shalt answer him: David asked me that he might run to Bethlehem his own city: because there are solemn sacrifices there for all his tribe.\n7 If he shall say, It is well: thy servant shall have peace: but if he be angry, know that his malice is come to its height.\n8 Deal mercifully then with thy servant: for thou hast brought me thy servant into a covenant of the Lord with thee. But if there be any iniquity in me, do thou kill me, and bring me not in to thy father.\n9 And Jonathan said: Far be this from thee: for if I should certainly know that evil is determined by my father against thee, I could do no otherwise than tell thee.\n10 And David answered Jonathan: Who shall bring me word, if thy father should answer thee harshly concerning me?\n11 And Jonathan said to David: Come and let us go out into the field. And when they were both of them gone out into the field,\n12 Jonathan said to David: O Lord God of Israel, if I shall discover my father's mind, to morrow or the day after, and there be any thing good for David, and I send not immediately to thee, and make it known to thee,\n13 May the Lord do so and so to Jonathan and add still more. But if my father shall continue in malice against thee, I will discover it to thy ear, and will send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace, and the Lord be with thee, as he hath been with my father.\n14 And if I live, thou shalt shew me the kindness of the Lord: but if I die,\n15 Thou shalt not take away thy kindness from my house for ever, when the Lord shall have rooted out the enemies of David, every one of them from the earth, may he take away Jonathan from his house, and may the Lord require it at the hands of David's enemies.\n16 Jonathan therefore made a covenant with the house of David: and the Lord required it at the hands of David's enemies.\n17 And Jonathan swore again to David, because he loved him: for he loved him as his own soul.\n18 And Jonathan said to him: To morrow is the new moon, and thou wilt be missed:\n19 For thy seat will be empty till after to morrow. So thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place, where thou must be hid on the day when it is lawful to work, and thou shalt remain beside the stone, which is called Ezel.\n20 And I will shoot three arrows near it, and will shoot as if I were exercising myself at a mark.\n21 And I will send a boy, saying to him: Go and fetch me the arrows.\n22 If I shall say to the boy: Behold the arrows are on this side of thee, take them up: come thou to me, because, there is peace to thee, and there is no evil, as the Lord liveth. But if I shall speak thus to the boy: Behold the arrows are beyond thee: go in peace, for the Lord hath sent thee away.\n23 And concerning the word which I and thou have spoken, the Lord be between thee and me for ever.\n24 So David was hid in the field, and the new moon came, and the king sat down to eat bread.\n25 And when the king sat down upon his chair (according to custom) which was beside the wall, Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's side, and David's place appeared empty.\n26 And Saul said nothing that day, for he thought it might have happened to him, that he was not clean, nor purified.\n27 And when the second day after the new moon was come, David's place appeared empty again. And Saul said to Jonathan his son: Why cometh not the son of Isai to meat neither yesterday nor to day?\n28 And Jonathan answered Saul: He asked leave of me earnestly to go to Bethlehem,\n29 And he said: Let me go, for there is a solemn sacrifice in the city, one of my brethren hath sent for me: and now if I have found favour in thy eyes, I will go quickly, and see my brethren. For this cause he came not to the king's table.\n30 Then Saul being angry against Jonathan said to him: Thou son of a woman that is the ravisher of a man, do I not know that thou lovest the son of Isai to thy own confusion and to the confusion of thy shameless mother?\n31 For as long as the son of Isai liveth upon earth, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Therefore now presently send, and fetch him to me: for he is the son of death.\n32 And Jonathan answering Saul his father, said: Why shall he die: what hath he done?\n33 And Saul caught up a spear to strike him.

And when the boy ran, he shot another arrow beyond the boy.\n37 The boy therefore came to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot: and Jonathan cried after the boy, and said: Behold the arrow is there further beyond thee.\n38 And Jonathan cried again after the boy, saying: Make haste speedily, stand not. And Jonathan's boy gathered up the arrows, and brought them to his master:\n39 And he knew not at all what was doing: for only Jonathan and David knew the matter.\n40 Jonathan therefore gave his arms to the boy, and said to him: Go, and carry them into the city.\n41 And when the boy was gone, David rose out of his place, which was towards the south, and falling on his face to the ground, adored thrice: and kissing one another, they wept together, but David more.\n42 And Jonathan said to David: Go in peace: and let all stand that we have sworn both of us in the name of the Lord, saying: The Lord be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed for ever.\n43 And David arose, and departed: and Jonathan went into the city.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"That every day an offering might be made on it according to the ordinance of Moses, in the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the festival days three times a year, that is to say, in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from *2 Chronicles*, chapter *8*.\n\nWant the full chapter?

His mother's name was Maacha, the daughter of Abessalom.\n11 And Asa did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, as did David his father:\n12 And he took away the effeminate out of the land, and he removed all the filth of the idols, which his fathers had made.\n13 Moreover he also removed his mother Maacha, from being the princess in the sacrifices of Priapus, and in the grove which she had consecrated to him: and he destroyed her den, and broke in pieces the filthy idol, and burnt it by the torrent Cedron:\n14 But the high places he did not take away. Nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect with the Lord all his days:\n15 And he brought in the things which his father had dedicated, and he had vowed, into the house of the Lord, silver and gold, and vessels.\n16 And there was war between Asa, and Baasa king of Israel all their days.\n17 And Baasa king of Israel went up against Juda, and built Rama, that no man might go out or come in, of the side of Asa king of Juda.\n18 Then Asa took all the silver and gold that remained in the treasures of the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house, and delivered it into the hands of his servants: and sent them to Benadad son of Tabremon the son of Hezion, king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying:\n19 There is a league between me and thee, and between my father and thy father: therefore I have sent thee presents of silver and gold: and I desire thee to come, and break thy league with Baasa king of Israel, that he may depart from me.\n20 Benadad hearkening to king Asa, sent the captains of his army against the cities of Israel, and they smote Ahion, and Dan, and Abeldomum Maacha, and all Cenneroth, that is all the land of Nephtali.\n21 And when Baasa had heard this, he left off building Rama, and returned into Thersa.\n22 But king Asa sent word into all Juda, saying: Let no man be excused: and they took away the stones from Rama, and the timber thereof wherewith Baasa had been building, and with them Asa built Gabaa of Benjamin, and Maspha.\n23 But the rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his strength, and all that he did and the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?

Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.\n10 And if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead, because of sin; but the spirit liveth, because of justification.\n11 And if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead, dwell in you; he that raised up Jesus Christ from the dead, shall quicken also your mortal bodies, because of his Spirit that dwelleth in you.\n**12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.**\n13 For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die: but if by the Spirit you mortify the deeds of the flesh, you shall live.\n14 For whosoever are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.\n15 For you have not received the spirit of bondage again in fear; but you have received the spirit of adoption of sons, whereby we cry: Abba (Father).\n16 For the Spirit himself giveth testimony to our spirit, that we are the sons of God.\n17 And if sons, heirs also; heirs indeed of God, and joint heirs with Christ: yet so, if we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified with him.\n18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this time are not worthy to be compared with the glory to come, that shall be revealed in us.\n19 For the expectation of the creature waiteth for the revelation of the sons of God.\n20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him that made it subject, in hope:\n21 Because the creature also itself shall be delivered from the servitude of corruption, into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.\n22 For we know that every creature groaneth and travaileth in pain, even till now.\n23 And not only it, but ourselves also, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption of the sons of God, the redemption of our body.\n24 For we are saved by hope. But hope that is seen, is not hope. For what a man seeth, why doth he hope for?\n25 But if we hope for that which we see not, we wait for it with patience.\n26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmity. For we know not what we should pray for as we ought; but the Spirit himself asketh for us with unspeakable groanings.\n27 And he that searcheth the hearts, knoweth what the Spirit desireth; because he asketh for the saints according to God.\n28 And we know that to them that love God, all things work together unto good, to such as, according to his purpose, are called to be saints.\n29 For whom he foreknew, he also predestinated to be made conformable to the image of his Son; that he might be the firstborn amongst many brethren.\n30 And whom he predestinated, them he also called. And whom he called, them he also justified. And whom he justified, them he also glorified.\n31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who is against us?\n32 He that spared not even his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how hath he not also, with him, given us all things?\n33 Who shall accuse against the elect of God? God that justifieth.\n34 Who is he that shall condemn? Christ Jesus that died, yea that is risen also again; who is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.\n35 Who then shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation? or distress? or famine? or nakedness? or danger? or persecution? or the sword?\n36 (As it is written: For thy sake we are put to death all the day long. We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.)\n37 But in all these things we overcome, because of him that hath loved us.\n38 For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor might,\n39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the reference (book, chapter, verse) for \"Take heed of the impudence of her eyes, and wonder not if she slight thee.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of Sirach, chapter 26, verse 14 of the Old Testament, you'll find \"Take heed of the impudence of her eyes, and wonder not if she slight thee.\".", "role": "assistant" } ]

And thou shalt open the door and flee, and shalt not stay there.\n4 So the young man, the servant of the prophet, went awry to Ramoth Galaad,\n5 And went in thither: and behold the captains of the army were sitting: and he said: I have a word to thee, O prince. And Jehu said: Unto whom of us all? And he said: To thee, O prince.\n6 And he arose, and went into the chamber: and he poured the oil upon his head, and said: Thus saith the Lord God of Israel: I have anointed thee king over Israel, the people of the Lord.\n7 And thou shalt cut off the house of Achab thy master, and I will revenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord at the hand of Jezabel.\n8 And I will destroy all the house of Achab, and I will cut off from Achab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up, and the meanest in Israel.\n9 And I will make the house of Achab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and like the house of Baasa the son of Ahias.\n**10 And the dogs shall eat Jezabel in the field of Jezrahel, and there shall be no one to bury her.

And he said to them: You know the man, and what he said.\n12 But they answered: It is false, but rather do thou tell us. And he said to them: Thus and thus did he speak to me: and he said: Thus saith the Lord: I have anointed thee king over Israel.\n13 Then they made haste and taking every man his garment laid it under his feet, after the manner of a judgment seat, and they sounded the trumpet, and said: Jehu is king.\n14 So Jehu the son of Josaphat the son of Namsi conspired against Joram. Now Joram had besieged Ramoth Galaad, he and all Israel fighting with Hazael king of Syria:\n15 And was returned to be healed in Jezrahel of his wounds, for the Syrians had wounded him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Jehu said: If it please you, let no man go forth or flee out of the city, lest he go, and tell in Jezrahel.\n16 And he got up, and went into Jezrahel: for Joram was sick there, and Ochozias king of Juda was come down to visit Joram.\n17 The watchmen therefore, that stood upon the tower of Jezrahel, saw the troop of Jehu coming, and said: I see a troop. And Joram said: Take a chariot, and send to meet them, and let him that goeth say: Is all well?\n18 So there went one in a chariot to meet him, and said: Thus saith the king: Are all things peaceable? And Jehu said: What hast thou to do with peace? go behind and follow me. And the watchman told, saying: The messenger came to them, but he returneth not.\n19 And he sent a second chariot of horses: and he came to them, and said: Thus saith the king: Is there peace? And Jehu said: What hast thou to do with peace? pass, and follow me.\n20 And the watchman told, saying: He came even to them, but returneth not: and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Namsi, for he drives furiously.\n21 And Joram said: Make ready the chariot. And they made ready his chariot, and Joram king of Israel, and Ochozias king of Juda went out, each in his chariot, and they went out to meet Jehu, and met him in the field of Naboth the Jezrahelite.\n22 And when Joram saw Jehu, he said: Is there peace, Jehu? And he answered: What peace? so long as the fornications of Jezabel thy mother, and her many sorceries are in their vigour.\n23 And Joram turned his hand, and fleeing, said to Ochozias: There is treachery, Ochozias.\n24 But Jehu bent Iris bow with his hand, and shot Joram between the shoulders: and the arrow went out through his heart, and immediately he fell in his chariot.\n25 And Jehu said to Badacer his captain: Take him, and cast him into the field of Naboth the Jezrahelite: for I remember when I and thou sitting in a chariot followed Achab this man's father, that the Lord laid this burden upon him, saying:\n26 If I do not requite thee in this field, saith the Lord, for the blood of Naboth, and for the blood of his children, which I saw yesterday, saith the Lord. So now take him, and cast him into the field, according to the word of the Lord.\n27 But Ochozias king of Juda seeing this, fled by the way of the garden house: and Jehu pursued him, and said: Strike him also in his chariot. And they struck him in the going up to Gaver, which is by Jeblaam: and he fled into Mageddo, and died there.\n28 And his servants laid him upon his chariot, and carried him to Jerusalem: and they buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David.\n29 In the eleventh year of Joram the son of Achab, Ochozias reigned over Juda,\n30 And Jehu came into Jezrahel. But Jezabel hearing of his coming in, painted her face with stibic stone, and adorned her head, and looked out of a window\n31 At Jehu coming in at the gate, and said: Can there be peace for Zambri, that hath killed his master?\n32 And Jehu lifted up his face to the window, and said: Who is this? And two or three eunuchs bowed down to him.\n33 And he said to them: Throw her down headlong: and they threw her down, and the wall was sprinkled with her blood, and the hoofs of the horses trod upon her.\n34 And when he was come in, to eat, and to drink, he said: Go, and see after that cursed woman, and bury her: because she is a king's daughter.\n35 And when they went to bury her, they found nothing but the skull, and the feet, and the extremities of her hands.\n36 And coming back they told him. And Jehu said: It is the word of the Lord, which he spoke by his servant Elias the Thesbite, saying: In the field of Jezrahel the dogs shall eat the flesh of Jezabel,\n37 And the flesh of Jezabel

withdrew himself from the holy land, and from the kingdom.\n8 They burnt the gate, and shed innocent blood: then we prayed to the Lord, and were heard, and we offered sacrifices, and fine flour, and lighted the lamps, and set forth the loaves.\n9 And now celebrate ye the days of Scenopegia in the month of Casleu.\n10 In the year one hundred and eighty-eight, the people that is at Jerusalem, and in Judea, and the senate, and Judas, to Aristobolus, the preceptor of king Ptolemee, who is of the stock of the anointed priests, and to the Jews that are in Egypt, health and welfare.\n11 Having been delivered by God out of great dangers, we give him great thanks, forasmuch as we have been in war with such a king.\n12 For he made numbers of men swarm out of Persia that have fought against us, and the holy city.\n13 For when the leader himself was in Persia, and with him a very great army, he fell in the temple of Nanea, being deceived by the counsel of the priests of Nanea.\n14 For Antiochus, with his friends, came to the place as though he would marry her, and that he might receive great sums of money under the title of a dowry.\n15 And when the priests of Nanea had set it forth, and he with a small company had entered into the compass of the temple, they shut the temple,\n16 When Antiochus was come in: and opening a secret entrance of the temple, they cast stones and slew the leader, and them that were with him, and hewed them in pieces, and cutting off their heads they threw them forth.\n17 Blessed be God in all things, who hath delivered up the wicked.\n18 Therefore whereas we purpose to keep the purification of the temple on the five and twentieth day of the month of Casleu, we thought it necessary to signify it to you: that you also may keep the day of Scenopegia, and the day of the fire, that was given when Nehemias offered sacrifice, after the temple and the altar was built.\n19 For when our fathers were led into Persia, the priests that then were worshippers of God took privately the fire from the altar, and hid it in a valley where there was a deep pit without water, and there they kept it safe, so that the place was unknown to all men.\n20 But when many years had passed, and it pleased God that Nehemias should be sent by the king of Persia, he sent some of the posterity of those priests that had hid it, to seek for the fire: and as they told us, they found no fire, but thick water.\n21 Then he bade them draw it up, and bring it to him: and the priest Nehemias commanded the sacrifices that were laid on, to be sprinkled with the same water, both the wood, and the things that were laid upon it.\n22 And when this was done, and the time came that the sun shone out, which before was in a cloud, there was a great fire kindled, so that all wondered.\n23 And all the priests made prayer, while the sacrifice was consuming, Jonathan beginning, and the rest answering.\n24 And the prayer of Nehemias was after this manner: O Lord God, Creator of all things, dreadful and strong, just and merciful, who alone art the good king,\n25 Who alone art gracious, who alone art just, and almighty, and eternal, who deliverest Israel from all evil, who didst choose the fathers and didst sanctify them:\n26 Receive the sacrifice for all thy people Israel, and preserve thy own portion, and sanctify it.\n27 Gather together our scattered people, deliver them that are slaves to the Gentiles, and look upon them that are despised and abhorred: that the Gentiles may know that thou art our God.\n28 Punish them that oppress us, and that treat us injuriously with pride.\n29 Establish thy people in thy holy place, as Moses hath spoken.\n30 And the priests sung hymns till the sacrifice was consumed.\n31 And when the sacrifice was consumed, Nehemias commanded the water that was left to be poured out upon the great stones.\n32 Which being done, there was kindled a flame from them: but it was consumed by the light that shined from the altar.\n33 And when this matter became public, it was told to the king of Persia, that in the place where the priests that were led away, had hid the fire, there appeared water, with which Nehemias and they that were with him had purified the sacrifices.\n34 And the king considering, and diligently examining the matter, made a temple for it, that he might prove what had happened.\n35

separated twelve of the chief of the priests, Sarabias, and Hasabias, and with them ten of their brethren,\n25 And I weighed unto them the silver and gold, and the vessels consecrated for the house of our God, which the king and his counsellors, and his princes, and all Israel, that were found had offered.\n26 And I weighed to their hands six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and a hundred vessels of silver, and a hundred talents of gold,\n27 And twenty cups of gold, of a thousand solids, and two vessels of the best shining brass, beautiful as gold.\n28 And I said to them: You are the holy ones of the Lord, and the vessels are holy, and the silver and gold, that is freely offered to the Lord the God of our fathers.\n29 Watch ye and keep them, till you deliver them by weight before the chief of the priests, and of the Levites, and the heads of the families of Israel in Jerusalem, into the treasure of the house of the Lord.\n30 And the priests and the Levites received the weight of the silver and gold, and the vessels, to carry them to Jerusalem to the house of our God.\n31 Then we set forward from the river Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month to go to Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us, and delivered us from the hand of the enemy, and of such as lay in wait by the way.\n32 And we came to Jerusalem, and we stayed there three days.\n**33 And on the fourth day the silver and the gold, and the vessels were weighed in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the son of Urias the priest, and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinees, and with them Jozabad the son of Josue, and Noadaia the son of Benoi, Levites.**\n34 According to the number and weight of every thing: and all the weight was written at that time.\n35 Moreover the children of them that had been carried away that were come out of the captivity, offered holocausts to the God of Israel, twelve calves for all the people of Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, and twelve he goats for sin: all for a holocaust to the Lord.\n36 And they gave the king's edicts to the lords that were from the king's court, and the governors beyond the river, and they furthered the people and the house of God.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the bible does it say \"Go through, go through the gates, prepare the way for the people, make the road plain, pick out the stones,

Why have you brought us into this desert, that you might destroy all the multitude with famine?\n4 And the Lord said to Moses: Behold I will rain bread from heaven for you: let the people go forth, and gather what is sufficient for every day: that I may prove them whether they will walk in my law, or not.\n5 But the sixth day let them provide for to bring in: and let it be double to that they were wont to gather every day.\n6 And Moses and Aaron said to the children of Israel: In the evening you shall know that the Lord hath brought you forth out of the land of Egypt:\n7 And in the morning you shall see the glory of the Lord: for he hath heard your murmuring against the Lord: but as for us, what are we, that you mutter against us?\n8 And Moses said: In the evening the Lord will give you flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full: for he hath heard your murmurings, with which you have murmured against him, for what are we? your murmuring is not against us, but against the Lord.\n9 Moses also said to Aaron: Say to the whole congregation of the children of Israel: Come before the Lord: for he hath heard your murmuring.\n10 And when Aaron spoke to all the assembly of the children of Israel, they looked towards the wilderness: and behold the glory of the Lord appeared in a cloud.\n11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n12 I have heard the murmuring of the children of Israel: say to them: In the evening you shall eat flesh, and in the morning you shall have your fill of bread: and you shall know that I am the Lord your God.\n13 So it came to pass in the evening, that quails coming up, covered the camp: and in the morning, a dew lay round about the camp.\n**14 And when it had covered the face of the earth, it appeared in the wilderness small, and as it were beaten with a pestle, like unto the hoar frost on the ground.**\n15 And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another: Manhu! which signifieth: What is this! for they knew not what it was.

We therefore have commanded that these things should be told you.\n24 Now Jonathan heard that the generals of Demetrius were come again with a greater army than before to fight against him.\n**25 So he went out from Jerusalem, and met them in the land of Amath: for he gave them no time to enter into his country.**\n26 And he sent spies into their camp, and they came back and brought him word that they designed to come upon them in the night.\n27 And when the sun was set, Jonathan commanded his men to watch, and to be in arms all night long ready to fight, and he set sentinels round about the camp.\n28 And the enemies heard that Jonathan and his men were ready for battle, and they were struck with fear, and dread in their heart: and they kindled fires in their camp.\n29 But Jonathan and they that were with him knew it not till the morning: for they saw the lights burning.\n30 And Jonathan pursued after them, but overtook them not: for they had passed the river Eleutherus.\n31 And Jonathan turned upon the Arabians that are called Zabadeans: and he defeated them, and took the spoils of them.\n32 And he went forward, and came to Damascus, and passed through all that country.\n33 Simon also went forth, and came as far as Ascalon, and the neighbouring fortresses, and he turned aside to Joppe, and took possession of it,\n34 (For he heard that they designed to deliver the hold to them that took part with Demetrius,) and he put a garrison there to keep it.\n35 And Jonathan came back, and called together the ancients of the people, and he took a resolution with them to build fortresses in Judea,\n36 And to build up walls in Jerusalem, and raise a mount between the castle and the city, to separate it from the city, that so it might have no communication, and that they might neither buy nor sell.\n37 And they came together to build up the city: for the wall that was upon the brook towards the east was broken down, and he repaired that which is called Caphetetha:\n38 And Simon built Adiada in Sephela, and fortified it, and set up gates and bars.\n39 Now when Tryphon had conceived a design to make himself king of Asia, and to take the crown, and to stretch out his hand against king Antiochus:\n40 Fearing lest Jonathan would not suffer him, but would fight against him: he sought to seize upon him, and to kill him. So he rose up and came to Bethsan.\n41 And Jonathan went out to meet him with forty thousand men chosen for battle, and came to Bethsan.\n42 Now when Tryphon saw that Jonathan came with a great army, he durst not stretch forth his hand against him,\n43 But received him with honour, and commended him to all his friends, and gave him presents: and he commanded his troops to obey him, as himself.\n44 And he said to Jonathan: Why hast thou troubled all the people, whereas we have no war?\n45 Now therefore send them back to their own houses: and choose thee a few men that may be with thee, and come with me to Ptolemais, and I will deliver it to thee, and the rest of the strong holds, and the army, and all that have any charge, and I will return and go away: for this is the cause of my coming.\n46 And Jonathan believed him, and did as he said: and sent away his army, and they departed into the land of Juda:\n47 But he kept with him three thousand men: of whom he sent two thousand into Galilee, and one thousand went with him.\n48 Now as soon as Jonathan entered into Ptolemais, they of Ptolemais shut the gates of the city, and took him: and all them that came in with him they slew with the sword.\n49 Then Tryphon sent an army and horsemen into Galilee, and into the great plain to destroy all Jonathan's company.\n50 But they, when they understood that Jonathan and all that were with him were taken and slain, encouraged one another, and went out ready for battle.\n51 Then they that had come after them, seeing that they stood for their lives, returned back.\n52 Whereupon they all came peaceably into the land of Juda. And they bewailed Jonathan, and them that had been with him, exceedingly: and Israel mourned with great lamentation.\n53 Then all the heathens that were round about them, sought to destroy them.

Know you not what the scripture saith of Elias; how he calleth on God against Israel?\n3 Lord, they have slain thy prophets, they have dug down thy altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.\n4 But what saith the divine answer to him? I have left me seven thousand men, that have not bowed their knees to Baal.\n5 Even so then at this present time also, there is a remnant saved according to the election of grace.\n6 And if by grace, it is not now by works: otherwise grace is no more grace.\n7 What then? That which Israel sought, he hath not obtained: but the election hath obtained it; and the rest have been blinded.\n8 As it is written: God hath given them the spirit of insensibility; eyes that they should not see; and ears that they should not hear, until this present day.\n9 And David saith: Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumbling block, and a recompense unto them.\n10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see: and bow down their back always.\n11 I say then, have they so stumbled, that they should fall?

But by their offence, salvation is come to the Gentiles, that they may be emulous of them.\n12 Now if the offence of them be the riches of the world, and the diminution of them, the riches of the Gentiles; how much more the fulness of them?\n13 For I say to you, Gentiles: as long indeed as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I will honour my ministry,\n14 If, by any means, I may provoke to emulation them who are my flesh, and may save some of them.\n15 For if the loss of them be the reconciliation of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?\n16 For if the firstfruit be holy, so is the lump also: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.\n17 And if some of the branches be broken, and thou, being a wild olive, art ingrafted in them, and art made partaker of the root, and of the fatness of the olive tree,\n**18 Boast not against the branches.

And in like manner the husband also hath not power of his own body, but the wife.\n5 Defraud not one another, except, perhaps, by consent, for a time, that you may give yourselves to prayer; and return together again, lest Satan tempt you for your incontinency.\n6 But I speak this by indulgence, not by commandment.\n7 For I would that all men were even as myself: but every one hath his proper gift from God; one after this manner, and another after that.\n8 But I say to the unmarried, and to the widows: It is good for them if they so continue, even as I.\n9 But if they do not contain themselves, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to be burnt.\n10 But to them that are married, not I but the Lord commandeth, that the wife depart not from her husband.\n11 And if she depart, that she remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband. And let not the husband put away his wife.\n12 For to the rest I speak, not the Lord. If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she consent to dwell with him, let him not put her away.\n13 And if any woman hath a husband that believeth not, and he consent to dwell with her, let her not put away her husband.\n14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the believing wife; and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the believing husband: otherwise your children should be unclean; but now they are holy.\n15 But if the unbeliever depart, let him depart. For a brother or sister is not under servitude in such cases. But God hath called us in peace.\n16 For how knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? Or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?\n17 But as the Lord hath distributed to every one, as God hath called every one, so let him walk: and so in all churches I teach.\n18 Is any man called, being circumcised? let him not procure uncircumcision. Is any man called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.\n19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing: but the observance of the commandments of God.\n20 Let every man abide in the same calling in which he was called.\n21 Wast thou called, being a bondman? care not for it; but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.\n22 For he that is called in the Lord, being a bondman, is the freeman of the Lord. Likewise he that is called, being free, is the bondman of Christ.\n23 You are bought with a price; be not made the bondslaves of men.\n**24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he was called, therein abide with God.**\n25 Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord; but I give counsel, as having obtained mercy of the Lord, to be faithful.\n26 I think therefore that this is good for the present necessity, that it is good for a man so to be.\n27 Art thou bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.\n28 But if thou take a wife, thou hast not sinned. And if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned: nevertheless, such shall have tribulation of the flesh. But I spare you.\n29 This therefore I say, brethren; the time is short; it remaineth, that they also who have wives, be as if they had none;\n30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as if they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;\n31 And they that use this world, as if they used it not: for the fashion of this world passeth away.\n32 But I would have you to be without solicitude. He that is without a wife, is solicitous for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please God.\n33 But he that is with a wife, is solicitous for the things of the world, how he may please his wife: and he is divided.\n34 And the unmarried woman and the virgin thinketh on the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she that is married thinketh on the things of the world, how she may please her husband.\n35 And this I speak for your profit: not to cast a snare upon you; but for that which is decent, and which may give you power to attend upon the Lord, without impediment.\n36 But if any man think that he seemeth dishonoured, with regard to his virgin, for that she is above the age, and it must so be: let him do what he will; he sinneth not, if she marry.\n37 For he that hath determined being steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but having power of his own will; and hath judged this in his heart, to keep his virgin, doth well.\n38 Therefore, both he that giveth his virgin in marriage, doth well; and he that giveth her not, doth better.\n39 A woman is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband die, she is at liberty: let her marry to whom she will; only in the Lord.\n40 But more blessed shall she be, if she so remain, according to my counsel; and I think that I also have the spirit of God.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "2 Kings, chapter 9, verse 13 - what does it say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "2 Kings 9:13 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"Then they made haste and taking every man his garment laid it under his feet, after the manner of a judgment seat, and they sounded the trumpet, and said: Jehu is king.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "2 Kings 10:31 please", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**The Old Testament**\n*2 Kings 10:31 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the Lord the God of Israel with all his heart: for he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, who had made Israel to sin.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does it say in 2 Kings chapter 17 verse 23?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**Old Testament**\n*2 Kings 17:23 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"Till the Lord removed Israel from his face, as he had spoken in the hand of all his servants the prophets: and Israel was carried away out of their land to Assyria, unto this day.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and what chapter and verse include \"One pillar was eighteen cubits high, and the chapiter of brass which was upon it was three cubits high: and the network, and the pomegranates that were upon the chapiter of the pillar, were all of brass: and the second pillar had the like adorning.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Bible, the verse \"One pillar was eighteen cubits high, and the chapiter of brass which was upon it was three cubits high: and the network, and the pomegranates that were upon the chapiter of the pillar, were all of brass: and the second pillar had the like adorning.\" can be found in the book of 2 Kings, chapter 25, verse 17 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"Hear this word, ye fat kine that are in the mountains of Samaria: you that oppress the needy, and crush the poor: that say to your masters: Bring, and we will drink.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of Amos, chapter 4, verse 1 of the Old Testament, you'll find \"Hear this word, ye fat kine that are in the mountains of Samaria: you that oppress the needy, and crush the poor: that say to your masters: Bring, and we will drink.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and chapter does \"Shall not the day of the Lord be darkness, and not light: and obscurity, and no brightness in it?\" belong to?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That one's from *Amos*, chapter *5*.\n\nHere's the chapter it's part of:\n*Amos Chapter 5*\n1 Hear ye this word, which I take up concerning you for a lamentation.

For he that cometh to God, must believe that he is, and is a rewarder to them that seek him.\n7 By faith Noe, having received an answer concerning those things which as yet were not seen, moved with fear, framed the ark for the saving of his house, by the which he condemned the world; and was instituted heir of the justice which is by faith.\n8 By faith he that is called Abraham, obeyed to go out into a place which he was to receive for an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.\n9 By faith he abode in the land, dwelling in cottages, with Isaac and Jacob, the co-heirs of the same promise.\n10 For he looked for a city that hath foundations; whose builder and maker is God.\n11 By faith also Sara herself, being barren, received strength to conceive seed, even past the time of age; because she believed that he was faithful who had promised,\n12 For which cause there sprung even from one (and him as good as dead) as the stars of heaven in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.\n13 All these died according to faith, not having received the promises, but beholding them afar off, and saluting them, and confessing that they are pilgrims and strangers on the earth.\n14 For they that say these things, do signify that they seek a country.\n15 And truly if they had been mindful of that from whence they came out, they had doubtless time to return.\n16 But now they desire a better, that is to say, a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for he hath prepared for them a city.\n17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered Isaac: and he that had received the promises, offered up his only begotten son;\n18 (To whom it was said: In Isaac shall thy seed be called.)\n**19 Accounting that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Whereupon also he received him for a parable.**\n20 By faith also of things to come, Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau.\n21 By faith Jacob dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and adored the top of his rod.\n22 By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the going out of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.\n23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months by his parents; because they saw he was a comely babe, and they feared not the king's edict.\n24 By faith Moses, when he was grown up, denied himself to be the son of Pharao's daughter;\n25 Rather choosing to be afflicted with the people of God, than to have the pleasure of sin for a time,\n26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasure of the Egyptians. For he looked unto the reward.\n27 By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the fierceness of the king: for he endured as seeing him that is invisible.\n28 By faith he celebrated the pasch, and the shedding of the blood; that he, who destroyed the firstborn, might not touch them.\n29 By faith they passed through the Red Sea, as by dry land: which the Egyptians attempting, were swallowed up.\n30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, by the going round them seven days.\n31 By faith Rahab the harlot perished not with the unbelievers, receiving the spies with peace.\n32 And what shall I yet say?

And he made himself chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.\n6 Neither did his father rebuke him at any time, saying: Why hast thou done this? And he also was very beautiful, the next in birth after Absalom.\n7 And he conferred with Joab the son of Sarvia, and with Abiathar the priest, who furthered Adonias's side.\n8 But Sadoc the priest, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Semei, and Rei, and the strength of David's army was not with Adonias.\n9 And Adonias having slain rams and calves, and all fat cattle by the stone of Zoheleth, which was near the fountain Rogel, invited all his brethren the king's sons, and all the men of Juda, the king's servants:\n10 But Nathan the prophet, and Banaias, and all the valiant men, and Solomon his brother, he invited not.\n11 And Nathan said to Bethsabee the mother of Solomon: Hast thou not heard that Adonias the son of Haggith reigneth, and our lord David knoweth it not?\n12 Now then come, take my counsel and save thy life, and the life of thy son Solomon.\n13 Go, and get thee in to king David, and say to him: Didst not thou, my lord O king, swear to me thy handmaid, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne? why then doth Adonias reign?\n14 And while thou art yet speaking there with the king, I will come in after thee, and will fill up thy words.\n15 So Bethsabee went in to the king into the chamber: now the king was very old, and Abisag the Sunamitess ministered to him.\n16 Bethsabee bowed herself, and worshipped the king. And the king said to her: What is thy will?\n17 She answered and said: My lord, thou didst swear to thy handmaid by the Lord thy God, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.\n18 And behold now Adonias reigneth, and thou, my lord the king, knowest nothing of it.\n19 He hath killed oxen, and all fat cattle, and many rams, and invited all the king's sons, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the general of the army: but Solomon thy servant he invited not.\n20 And now, my lord O king, the eyes of all Israel are upon thee, that thou shouldst tell them, who shall sit on thy throne, my lord the king, after thee.\n21 Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king sleepeth with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon shall be counted offenders.\n22 As she was yet speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet came.\n23 And they told the king, saying: Nathan the prophet is here. And when he was come in before the king, and had worshipped, bowing down to the ground,\n24 Nathan said: My lord O king, hast thou said: Let Adonias reign after me, and let him sit upon my throne?\n25 Because he is gone down to day, and hath killed oxen, and fatlings, and many rams, and invited all the king's sons, and the captains of the army, and Abiathar the priest: and they are eating and drinking before him, and saying: God save king Adonias:\n26 But me thy servant, and Sadoc the priest, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and Solomon thy servant he hath not invited.\n27 Is this word come out from my lord the king, and hast thou not told me thy servant who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?\n28 And king David answered and said: Call to me Bethsabee. And when she was come in to the king, and stood before him,\n29 The king swore and said: As the Lord liveth, who hath delivered my soul out of all distress,\n30 Even as I swore to thee by the Lord the God of Israel, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead, so will I do this day.\n31 And Bethsabee bowing with her face to the earth worshipped the king, saying: May my lord David live for ever.\n32 King David also said: Call me Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaias the son of Joiada. And when they were come in before the king,\n33 He said to them: Take with you the servants of your lord, and set my son Solomon upon my mule: and bring him to Gihon.\n34 And let Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel: and you shall sound the trumpet, and shall say: God save king Solomon.\n35 And you shall come up after him, and he shall come, and shall sit upon my throne, and he shall reign in my stead: and I will appoint him to be ruler over Israel, and over Juda.\n36 And Banaias the son of Joiada answered the king, saying: Amen: so say the Lord the God of my lord the king.\n37 As the Lord hath been with my lord the king, so be he with Solomon, and make his throne higher than the throne of my lord king David.\n38 So Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet went down, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and the Cerethi, and Phelethi: and they set Solomon upon the mule of king David, and brought him to Gihon.\n39 And Sadoc the priest took a horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon: and they sounded the trumpet, and all the people said: God save king Solomon.\n40 And all the multitude went up after him, and the people played with pipes, and rejoiced with a great joy, and the earth rang with the noise of their cry.\n41 And Adonias, and all that were invited by him, heard it, and now the feast was at an end: Joab also hearing the sound of the trumpet, said: What meaneth this noise of the city in an uproar?\n42 While he yet spoke, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came: and Adonias said to him: Come in, because thou art a valiant man, and bringest good news.\n**43 And Jonathan answered Adonias: Not so: for our lord king David hath appointed Solomon king.**\n44 And hath sent with him Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and the Cerethi, and Phelethi, and they have set him upon the king's mule.\n45 And Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon: and they are gone up from thence rejoicing, so that the city rang again: this is the noise that you have heard.\n46 Moreover Solomon sitteth upon the throne of the kingdom,\n47 And the king's servants going in have blessed our lord king David, saying: May God make the name of Solomon greater than thy name, and make his throne greater than thy throne. And the king adored in his bed:\n48 And he said: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who hath given this day one to sit on my throne, my eyes seeing it.\n49 Then all the guests of Adonias were afraid, and they all arose and every man went his way.\n50 And Adonias fearing Solomon, arose, and went, and took hold on the horn of the altar.\n51 And they told Solomon, saying: Behold Adonias, fearing king Solomon, hath taken hold of the horn of the altar, saying: Let king Solomon swear to me this day, that he will not kill his servant with the sword.\n52 And Solomon said: If he be a good man, there shall not so much as one hair of his head fall to the ground: but if evil be found in him, he shall die.\n53 Then king Solomon sent, and brought him out from the altar: and going in he worshipped king Solomon: and Solomon said to him: Go to thy house.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"Beware thou turn not aside to iniquity: for this thou hast begun to follow after misery.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That verse comes from *Job*, chapter *36*.\n\nCheck out the whole chapter:\n*Job Chapter 36*\n1 Eliu also proceeded, and said:\n2 Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee: for I have yet somewhat to speak in God's behalf.\n3 I will repeat my knowledge from the beginning, and I will prove my Maker just.\n4 For indeed my words are without a lie, and perfect knowledge shall be proved to thee.\n5 God doth not cast away the mighty, whereas he himself also is mighty.\n6 But he saveth not the wicked, and he giveth judgment to the poor.\n7 He will not take away his eyes from the just, and he placeth kings on the throne for ever, and they are exalted.\n8 And if they shall be in chains, and be bound with the cords of poverty:\n9 He shall shew them their works, and their wicked deeds, because they have been violent.\n10 He also shall open their ear, to correct them: and shall speak, that they may return from iniquity.\n11 If they shall hear and observe, they shall accomplish their days in good, and their years in glory.\n12 But if they hear not, they shall pass by the sword, and shall be consumed in folly.\n13 Dissemblers and crafty men prove the wrath of God, neither shall they cry when they are bound.\n14 Their soul shall die in a storm, and their life among the effeminate.\n15 He shall deliver the poor out of his distress, and shall open his ear in affliction.\n16 Therefore he shall set thee at large out of the narrow mouth, and which hath no foundation under it: and the rest of thy table shall be full of fatness.\n17 Thy cause hath been judged as that of the wicked, cause and judgment thou shalt recover.\n18 Therefore let not anger overcome thee to oppress any man: neither let multitude of gifts turn thee aside.\n19 Lay down thy greatness without tribulation, and all the mighty of strength.\n20 Prolong not the night that people may come up for them.\n**21 Beware thou turn not aside to iniquity: for this thou hast begun to follow after misery.**\n22 Behold, God is high in his strength, and none is like him among the lawgivers.\n23 Who can search out his ways? or who can say to him: Thou has wrought iniquity?\n24 Remember that thou knowest not his work, concerning which men have sung.\n25 All men see him, every one beholdeth afar off.\n26 Behold, God is great, exceeding our knowledge: the number of his years is inestimable.\n27 He lifteth up the drops of rain, and poureth out showers like floods:\n28 Which flow from the clouds that cover all above.\n29 If he will spread out clouds as his tent,\n30 And lighten with his light from above, he shall cover also the ends of the sea.\n31 For by these he judgeth people, and giveth food to many mortals.\n32 In his hands he hideth the light, and commandeth it to come again.\n33 He sheweth his friend concerning it, that it is his possession, and that he may come up to it.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Leviticus 16:3 please", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, Leviticus chapter 16, verse 3 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"Unless he first do these things: He shall offer a calf for sin, and a ram for a holocaust.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"But he said to them: Do nothing more than that which is appointed you.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture \"But he said to them: Do nothing more than that which is appointed you.\" is located in Luke 3:13 of the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Scripture from Luke 9:17?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**New Testament**\n*Luke 9:17 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"And they did all eat, and were filled.

And David said: Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thy sight, and he will say: Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved. But truly as the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, there is but one step (as I may say) between me and death.\n4 And Jonathan said to David: Whatsoever thy soul shall say to me, I will do for thee.\n5 And David said to Jonathan: Behold to morrow is the new moon, and I according to custom am wont to sit beside the king to eat: let me go then that I may be hid in the field till the evening of the third day.\n6 If thy father look and inquire for me, thou shalt answer him: David asked me that he might run to Bethlehem his own city: because there are solemn sacrifices there for all his tribe.\n7 If he shall say, It is well: thy servant shall have peace: but if he be angry, know that his malice is come to its height.\n8 Deal mercifully then with thy servant: for thou hast brought me thy servant into a covenant of the Lord with thee. But if there be any iniquity in me, do thou kill me, and bring me not in to thy father.\n9 And Jonathan said: Far be this from thee: for if I should certainly know that evil is determined by my father against thee, I could do no otherwise than tell thee.\n10 And David answered Jonathan: Who shall bring me word, if thy father should answer thee harshly concerning me?\n11 And Jonathan said to David: Come and let us go out into the field. And when they were both of them gone out into the field,\n12 Jonathan said to David: O Lord God of Israel, if I shall discover my father's mind, to morrow or the day after, and there be any thing good for David, and I send not immediately to thee, and make it known to thee,\n13 May the Lord do so and so to Jonathan and add still more. But if my father shall continue in malice against thee, I will discover it to thy ear, and will send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace, and the Lord be with thee, as he hath been with my father.\n14 And if I live, thou shalt shew me the kindness of the Lord: but if I die,\n15 Thou shalt not take away thy kindness from my house for ever, when the Lord shall have rooted out the enemies of David, every one of them from the earth, may he take away Jonathan from his house, and may the Lord require it at the hands of David's enemies.\n16 Jonathan therefore made a covenant with the house of David: and the Lord required it at the hands of David's enemies.\n17 And Jonathan swore again to David, because he loved him: for he loved him as his own soul.\n18 And Jonathan said to him: To morrow is the new moon, and thou wilt be missed:\n19 For thy seat will be empty till after to morrow. So thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place, where thou must be hid on the day when it is lawful to work, and thou shalt remain beside the stone, which is called Ezel.\n20 And I will shoot three arrows near it, and will shoot as if I were exercising myself at a mark.\n21 And I will send a boy, saying to him: Go and fetch me the arrows.\n22 If I shall say to the boy: Behold the arrows are on this side of thee, take them up: come thou to me, because, there is peace to thee, and there is no evil, as the Lord liveth. But if I shall speak thus to the boy: Behold the arrows are beyond thee: go in peace, for the Lord hath sent thee away.\n23 And concerning the word which I and thou have spoken, the Lord be between thee and me for ever.\n24 So David was hid in the field, and the new moon came, and the king sat down to eat bread.\n25 And when the king sat down upon his chair (according to custom) which was beside the wall, Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's side, and David's place appeared empty.\n26 And Saul said nothing that day, for he thought it might have happened to him, that he was not clean, nor purified.\n27 And when the second day after the new moon was come, David's place appeared empty again. And Saul said to Jonathan his son: Why cometh not the son of Isai to meat neither yesterday nor to day?\n**28 And Jonathan answered Saul: He asked leave of me earnestly to go to Bethlehem,**\n29 And he said: Let me go, for there is a solemn sacrifice in the city, one of my brethren hath sent for me: and now if I have found favour in thy eyes, I will go quickly, and see my brethren. For this cause he came not to the king's table.\n30 Then Saul being angry against Jonathan said to him: Thou son of a woman that is the ravisher of a man, do I not know that thou lovest the son of Isai to thy own confusion and to the confusion of thy shameless mother?\n31 For as long as the son of Isai liveth upon earth, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Therefore now presently send, and fetch him to me: for he is the son of death.\n32 And Jonathan answering Saul his father, said: Why shall he die: what hath he done?\n33 And Saul caught up a spear to strike him. And Jonathan understood that it was determined by his father to kill David.\n34 So Jonathan rose from the table in great anger, and did not eat bread on the second day after the new moon. For he was grieved for David, because his father had put him to confusion.\n35 And when the morning came, Jonathan went into the field, according to the appointment with David, and a little boy with him.\n36 And he said to his boy: Go, and fetch me the arrows which I shoot. And when the boy ran, he shot another arrow beyond the boy.\n37 The boy therefore came to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot: and Jonathan cried after the boy, and said: Behold the arrow is there further beyond thee.\n38 And Jonathan cried again after the boy, saying: Make haste speedily, stand not. And Jonathan's boy gathered up the arrows, and brought them to his master:\n39 And he knew not at all what was doing: for only Jonathan and David knew the matter.\n40 Jonathan therefore gave his arms to the boy, and said to him: Go, and carry them into the city.\n41 And when the boy was gone, David rose out of his place, which was towards the south, and falling on his face to the ground, adored thrice: and kissing one another, they wept together, but David more.\n42 And Jonathan said to David: Go in peace: and let all stand that we have sworn both of us in the name of the Lord, saying: The

Choose out a man of you, and let him come down and fight hand to hand.\n9 If he be able to fight with me, and kill me, we will be servants to you: but if I prevail against him, and kill him, you shall be servants, and shall serve us.\n10 And the Philistine said: I have defied the bands of Israel this day: Give me a man, and let him fight with me hand to hand.\n11 And Saul and all the Israelites hearing these words of the Philistine were dismayed, and greatly afraid.\n12 Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem Juda before mentioned, whose name was Isai, who had eight sons, and was an old man in the days of Saul, and of great age among men.\n13 And his three eldest sons followed Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that went to the battle, were Eliab the firstborn, and the second Abinadab, and the third Samma.\n14 But David was the youngest. So the three eldest having followed Saul,\n15 David went, and returned from Saul, to feed his father's flock at Bethlehem.\n16 Now the Philistine came out morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.\n17 And Isai said to David his son: Take for thy brethren an ephi of frumenty, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brethren.\n18 And carry these ten little cheeses to the tribune: and go see thy brethren, if they are well: and learn with whom they are placed.\n19 But Saul, and they, and all the children of Israel were in the valley of Terebinth fighting against the Philistines.\n20 David therefore arose in the morning, and gave the charge of the flock to the keeper: and went away loaded as Isai had commanded him. And he came to the place of Magala, and to the army, which was going out to fight, and shouted for the battle.\n21 For Israel had put themselves in array, and the Philistines who stood against them were prepared.\n22 And David leaving the vessels which he had brought, under the care of the keeper of the baggage, ran to the place of the battle and asked if all things went well with his brethren.\n23 And as he talked with them, that baseborn man whose name was Goliath, the Philistine, of Geth, shewed himself coming up from the camp of the Philistines: and he spoke according to the same words, and David heard them.\n24 And all the Israelites when they saw the man, fled from his face, fearing him exceedingly.\n25 And some one of Israel said: Have you seen this man that is come up, for he is come up to defy Israel. And the man that shall slay him, the king will enrich with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and will make his father's house free from tribute in Israel.\n26 And David spoke to the men that stood by him, saying: What shall be given to the man that shall kill this Philistine, and shall take away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?\n27 And the people answered him the same words saying: These things shall be given to the man that shall slay him.\n28 Now when Eliab his eldest brother heard this, when he was speaking with others, he was angry with David, and said: Why earnest thou hither? and why didst thou leave those few sheep in the desert? I know thy pride, and the wickedness of thy heart: that thou art come down to see the battle.\n29 And David said: What have I done? is there not cause to speak?\n30 And he turned a little aside from him to another: and said the same word. And the people answered him as before.\n31 And the words which David spoke were heard, and were rehearsed before Saul.\n32 And when he was brought to him, he said to him: Let not any man's heart be dismayed in him: I thy servant will go, and will fight against the Philistine.\n33 And Saul said to David: Thou art not able to withstand this Philistine, nor to fight against him: for thou art but a boy, but he is a warrior from his youth.\n34 And David said to Saul: Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, or a bear, and took a ram out of the midst of the flock:\n**35 And I pursued after them, and struck them, and delivered it out of their mouth: and they rose up against me, and I caught them by the throat, and I strangled and killed them.**\n36 For I thy servant have killed both a lion and a bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be also as one of them. I will go now, and take away the reproach of the people: for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, who hath dared to curse the army of the living God?\n37 And David said: The Lord who delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said to David: Go, and the Lord be with thee.\n38 And Saul clothed David with his garments, and put a helmet of brass upon his head, and armed him with a coat of mail.\n39 And David having girded his sword upon his armour, began to try if he could walk in armour: for he was not accustomed to it. And David said to Saul: I cannot go thus, for I am not used to it. And he laid them off,\n40 And he took his staff, which he had always in his hands: and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them into the shepherd's scrip, which he had with him, and he took a sling in his hand, and went forth against the Philistine.\n41 And the Philistine came on, and drew nigh against David, and his armourbearer before him.\n42 And when the Philistine looked, and beheld David, he despised him. For he was a young man, ruddy, and of a comely countenance.\n43 And the Philistine said to David: Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with a staff? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.\n44 And he said to David: Come to me, and I will give thy flesh to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.\n45 And David said to the Philistine: Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, which thou hast defied.\n46 This day, and the Lord will deliver thee into my hand, and I will slay thee, and take away thy head from thee: and I will give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth: that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.\n47 And all this assembly shall know, that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for it is his battle, and he will deliver you into our hands.\n48 And when the Philistine arose and was coming, and drew nigh to meet David, David made haste, and ran to the fight to meet the Philistine.\n49 And he put his hand into his scrip, and took a stone, and cast it with the sling, and fetching it about struck the Philistine in the forehead: and the stone was fixed in his forehead, and he fell on his face upon the earth.\n50 And David prevailed over the Philistine, with a sling and a stone, and he struck, and slew the Philistine. And as David had no sword in his hand,\n51 He ran, and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath, and slew him, and cut off his head. And the Philistines seeing that their champion was dead, fled away.\n52 And the men of Israel and Juda rising up shouted, and pursued after the Philistines till they came to the valley and to the gates of Accaron, and there fell many wounded of the Philistines in the way of Saraim, and as far as Geth, and as far as Accaron.\n53 And the children of Israel returning, after they had pursued the Philistines, fell upon their camp.\n54 And David taking the head of the Philistine brought it to Jerusalem: but his armour he put in his tent.\n55 Now at the time that Saul saw David going out against the Philistines, he said to Abner the captain of the army: Of what family is this young man descended, Abner? And Abner said: As thy soul liveth, O king, I know not.\n56 And the king said: Inquire thou, whose son this man is.\n57 And when David was returned, after the Philistine was slain, Abner took him, and brought him in before Saul, with the head of the Philistine in his hand.\n58 And Saul said to him: Young man, of what family art thou?

But they would not hearken to the proposition of their brethren the children of Israel:\n14 But out of all the cities which were of their lot, they gathered themselves together into Gabaa, to aid them, and to fight against the whole people of Israel.\n15 And there were found of Benjamin five and twenty thousand men that drew the sword, besides the inhabitants of Gabaa,\n16 Who were seven hundred most valiant men, fighting with the left hand as well as with the right: and slinging stones so sure that they could hit even a hair, and not miss by the stone's going on either side.\n17 Of the men of Israel also, beside the children of Benjamin, were found four hundred thousand that drew swords, and were prepared to fight.\n18 And they arose and came to the house of God, that is, to Silo: and they consulted God, and said: Who shall be in our army the first to go to the battle against the children of Benjamin? And the Lord answered them: Let Juda be your leader.\n19 And forthwith the children of Israel rising in the morning, camped by Gabaa:\n20 And going out from thence to fight against Benjamin, began to assault the city.\n21 And the children of Benjamin coming out of Gabaa, slew of the children of Israel that day two and twenty thousand men.\n22 Again Israel trusting in their strength and their number, set their army in array in the same place, where they had fought before:\n23 Yet so that they first went up and wept before the Lord until night: and consulted him, and said: Shall I go out any more to fight against the children of Benjamin my brethren, or not?

The ambushes also which were about the city, began by little and little to come forth,\n34 And to march from the west side of the city.

And the battle grew hot against the children of Benjamin: and they understood not that present death threatened them on every side.\n35 And the Lord defeated them before the children of Israel, and they slew of them in that day five and twenty thousand, and one hundred, all fighting men and that drew the sword.\n36 But the children of Benjamin when they saw themselves to be too weak, began to flee. Which the children of Israel seeing, gave them place to flee, that they might come to the ambushes that were prepared, which they had set near the city.\n37 And they that were in ambush arose on a sudden out of their coverts, and whilst Benjamin turned their backs to the slayers, went into the city, and smote it with the edge of the sword.\n38 Now the children of Israel had given a sign to them, whom they had laid in ambushes, that after they had taken the city, they should make a fire: that by the smoke rising on high, they might shew that the city was taken.\n39 And when the children of Israel saw this in the battle (for the children of Benjamin thought they fled and pursued them vigorously, killing thirty men of their army)\n40 And perceived as it were a pillar of smoke rise up from the city; and Benjamin looking back, saw that the city was taken, and that the flames ascended on high:\n41 They that before had made as if they fled, turning their faces stood bravely against them; which the children of Benjamin seeing, turned their backs,\n42 And began to go towards the way of the desert, the enemy pursuing them thither also. And they that fired the city came also out to meet them.\n43 And so it was, that they were slain on both sides by the enemies, and there was no rest of their men dying.

provoke him to anger by the works of his hands, to become as the house of Jeroboam: for this cause he slew him, that is to say, Jehu the son of Hanani, the prophet.\n8 In the six and twentieth year of Asa king of Juda, Ela the son of Baasa reigned over Israel in Thersa two years.\n9 And his servant Zambri, who was captain of half the horsemen, rebelled against him: now Ela was drinking in Thersa,

And he sanctified Isai and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.\n6 And when they were come in, he saw Eliab, and said: Is the Lord's anointed before him?\n7 And the Lord said to Samuel: Look not on his countenance, nor on the height of his stature: because I have rejected him, nor do I judge according to the look of man: for man seeth those things that appear, but the Lord beholdeth the heart.\n8 And Isai called Abinadab, and brought him before Samuel. And he said: Neither hath the Lord chosen this.\n9 And Isai brought Samma, and he said of him: Neither hath the Lord chosen this.\n10 Isai therefore brought his seven sons before Samuel: and Samuel said to Isai: The Lord hath not chosen any one of these.\n11 And Samuel said to Isai: Are here all thy sons? He answered: There remaineth yet a young one, who keepeth the sheep. And Samuel said to Isai: Send, and fetch him, for we will not sit down till he come hither.\n12 He sent therefore and brought him Now he was ruddy and beautiful to behold, and of a comely face. And the Lord said: Arise, and anoint him, for this is he.\n13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward: and Samuel rose up, and went to Ramatha.\n14 But the spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him.\n15 And the servants of Saul said to him: Behold now an evil spirit from God troubleth thee.\n16 Let our lord give orders, and thy servants who are before thee will seek out a man skillful in playing on the harp, that when the evil spirit from the Lord is upon thee, he may play with his hand, and thou mayest bear it more easily.\n17 And Saul said to his servants: Provide me then some man that can play well, and bring him to me.\n18 And one of the servants answering, said: Behold I have seen a son of Isai the Bethlehemite, a skillful player, and one of great strength, and a man fit for war, and prudent in his words, and a comely person: and the Lord is with him.\n19 Then Saul sent messengers to Isai, saying: Send me David thy son, who is in the pastures.\n**20 And Isai took an ass laden with bread, and a bottle of wine, and a kid of the flock, and sent them by the hand of David his son to Saul.**\n21 And David came to Saul, and stood before him: and he loved him exceedingly, and made him his armourbearer.\n22 And Saul sent to Isai, saying: Let David stand before me: for he hath found favour in my sight.\n23 So whensoever the evil spirit from the Lord was upon Saul, David took his harp, and played with his hand, and Saul was refreshed, and was better, for the evil spirit departed from him.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you read 1 Thessalonians chapter 4, verse 16?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the New Testament, 1 Thessalonians chapter 4, verse 16 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"Then we who are alive, who are left, shall be taken up together with them in the clouds to meet Christ, into the air, and so shall we be always with the Lord.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Verse 26 from chapter 5 in Daniel?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Daniel 5:26, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And this is the interpretation of the word.

And the son in law tarried in the house of his father in law three days, eating with him and drinking familiarly.\n5 But on the fourth day arising early in the morning he desired to depart.

And whereas he saith,\n27 All things are put under him; undoubtedly, he is excepted, who put all things under him.\n28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then the Son also himself shall be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.\n29 Otherwise what shall they do that are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not again at all? why are they then baptized for them?\n30 Why also are we in danger every hour?\n31 I die daily, I protest by your glory, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.\n32 If (according to man) I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what doth it profit me, if the dead rise not again?

For star differeth from star in glory.\n42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it shall rise in incorruption.\n43 It is sown in dishonour, it shall rise in glory. It is sown in weakness, it shall rise in power.\n44 It is sown a natural body, it shall rise a spiritual body. If there be a natural body, there is also a spiritual body, as it is written:\n45 The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit.\n46 Yet that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; afterwards that which is spiritual.\n47 The first man was of the earth, earthly: the second man, from heaven, heavenly.\n48 Such as is the earthly, such also are the earthly: and such as is the heavenly, such also are they that are heavenly.\n49 Therefore as we have borne the image of the earthly, let us bear also the image of the heavenly.\n50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot possess the kingdom of God: neither shall corruption possess incorruption.\n51 Behold, I tell you a mystery.

And he put beams in the house round about on the outside, that they might not be fastened in the walls of the temple.\n7 And the house, when it was in building, was built of stones hewed and made ready: so that there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house when it was in building.\n8 The door for the middle side was on the right hand of the house: and by winding stairs they went up to the middle room, and from the middle to the third.\n9 So he built the house, and finished it: and he covered the house with roofs of cedar.\n10 And he built a floor over all the house five cubits in height, and he covered the house with timber of cedar.\n11 And the word of the Lord came to Solomon, saying:\n12 This house, which thou buildest, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and keep all my commandments, walking in them, I will fulfill my word to thee which I spoke to David thy father.\n13 And I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.\n14 So Solomon built the house and finished it.\n15 And he built the walls of the house on the inside, with boards of cedar, from the floor of the house to the top of the walls, and to the roots, he covered it with boards of cedar on the inside: and he covered the floor of the house with planks of fir.\n16 And he built up twenty cubits with boards of cedar at the hinder part of the temple, from the floor to the top: and made the inner house of the oracle to be the holy of holies.\n17 And the temple itself before the doors of the oracle was forty cubits long.\n18 And all the house was covered within with cedar, having the turnings, and the joints thereof artfully wrought and carvings projecting out: all was covered with boards of cedar: and no stone could be seen in the wall at all.\n19 And he made the oracle in the midst of the house, in the inner part, to set there the ark of the covenant of the Lord.\n20 Now the oracle was twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in height.

But there was no small terror throughout the whole city.\n15 And the priests prostrated themselves before the altar in their priests' vestments, and called upon him from heaven, who made the law concerning things given to be kept, that he would preserve them safe, for them that had deposited them.\n16 Now whosoever saw the countenance of the high priest, was wounded in heart: for his face, and the changing of his colour declared the inward sorrow of his mind.\n17 For the man was so compassed with sadness and horror of the body, that it was manifest to them that beheld him, what sorrow he had in his heart.\n18 Others also came flocking together out of their houses, praying and making public supplication, because the place was like to come into contempt.\n19 And the women, girded with haircloth about their breasts, came together in the streets. And the virgins also that were shut up, came forth, some to Onias, and some to the walls, and others looked out of the windows.\n20 And all holding up their hands towards heaven, made supplication.\n21 For the expectation of the mixed multitude, and of the high priest who was in an agony, would have moved any one to pity.\n22 And these indeed called upon almighty God, to preserve the things that had been committed to them, safe and sure for those that had committed them.\n23 But Heliodorus executed that which he had resolved on, himself being present in the same place with his guard about the treasury.\n24 But the spirit of the almighty God gave a great evidence of his presence, so that all that had presumed to obey him, falling down by the power of God, were struck with fainting and dread.\n25 For there appeared to them a horse with a terrible rider upon him, adorned with a very rich covering: and he ran fiercely and struck Heliodorus with his fore feet, and he that sat upon him seemed to have armour of gold.\n26 Moreover there appeared two other young men beautiful and strong, bright and glorious, and in comely apparel: who stood by him, on either side, and scourged him without ceasing with many stripes.\n**27 And Heliodorus suddenly fell to the ground, and they took him up covered with great darkness, and having put him into a litter they carried him out.**\n28 So he that came with many servants, and all his guard into the aforesaid treasury, was carried out, no one being able to help him, the manifest power of God being known.\n29 And he indeed by the power of God lay speechless, and without all hope of recovery.\n30 But they praised the Lord because he had glorified his place: and the temple, that a little before was full of fear and trouble, when the almighty Lord appeared, was filled with joy and gladness.\n31 Then some of the friends of Heliodorus forthwith begged of Onias, that he would call upon the most High to grant him his life, who was ready to give up the ghost.\n32 So the high priest considering that the king might perhaps suspect that some mischief had been done to Heliodorus by the Jews, offered a sacrifice of health for the recovery of the man.\n33 And when the high priest was praying, the same young men in the same clothing stood by Heliodorus, and said to him: Give thanks to Onias the priest: because for his sake the Lord hath granted thee life.\n34 And thou having been scourged by God, declare unto all men the great works and the power of God.

And it was told David, that the men of Jabes Galaad had buried Saul.\n5 David therefore sent messengers to the men of Jabes Galaad, and said to them: Blessed be you to the Lord, who have shewn this mercy to your master Saul, and have buried him.\n6 And now the Lord surely will render you mercy and truth, and I also will, requite you for this good turn, because you have done this thing.\n7 Let your hands be strengthened, and be ye men of valour: for although your master Saul be dead, yet the house of Juda hath anointed me to be their king.\n8 But Abner the son of Ner, general of Saul's army, took Isboseth the son of Saul, and led him about through the camp?\n9 And made him king over Galaad, and, over Gessuri, and over Jezrahel, and over Ephraim, and over Benjamin, and over all Israel.\n10 Isboseth the son of Saul was forty years old when he began to reign over, Israel, and he reigned two years: and only the house of Juda followed David.\n11 And the number of the days that David abode, reigning in Hebron over the house of Juda, was seven years and six months.\n12 And Abner the son of Ner, and the servants of Isboseth the son of Saul, went out from the camp to Gabaon.\n13 And Joab the son of Sarvia, and the servants of David went out, and met them by the pool of Gabaon.

the top of a hill.\n26 And Abner cried out to Joab, and said: Shall thy sword rage unto utter destruction? knowest thou not that it is dangerous to drive people to despair? how long dost thou defer to

that the holocaust, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering might be slain thereon.\n40 And on the outward side, which goeth up to the entry of the gate that looketh toward the north, were two tables: and at the other side before the porch of the gate were two tables.\n41 Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side: at the sides of the gate were eight tables, upon which they slew the victims.\n42 And the four tables for the holocausts were made of square stones: one cubit and a half long, and one cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high: to lay the vessels upon, in which the holocaust and the victim is slain.\n43 And the borders of them were of one handbreadth, turned inwards round about: and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering.\n44 And without the inner gate were the chambers of the singing men in the inner court, which was on the side of the gate that looketh to the north: and their prospect was towards the south, one at the side of the east gate, which looketh toward the north.\n45 And he said to me: This chamber, which looketh toward the south shall be for the priests that watch in the wards of the temple.\n46 But the chamber that looketh towards the north shall be for the priests that watch over the ministry of the altar. These are the sons of Sadoc, who among the sons of Levi, come near to the Lord, to minister to him.\n47 And he measured the court a hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad foursquare: and the altar that was before the face of the temple.\n48 And he brought me into the porch of the temple: and he measured the porch five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and the breadth of the gate three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.\n49 And the length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits, and there were eight steps to go up to it.

And they ate together.\n9 And the young man arose to set forward with his wife and servant. And his father in law spoke to him again: Consider that the day is declining, and draweth toward evening: tarry with me to day also, and spend the day in mirth, and to morrow thou shalt depart, that thou mayest go into thy house.\n10 His son in law would not consent to his words: but forthwith went forward and came over against Jebus, which by another name is called Jerusalem, leading with him two asses laden, and his concubine.\n11 And now they were come near Jebus, and the day was far spent: and the servant said to his master: Come, I beseech thee, let us turn into the city of the Jebusites, and lodge there.\n12 His master answered him: I will not go into the town of another nation, who are not of the children of Israel, but I will pass over to Gabaa:\n13 And when I shall come thither, we will lodge there, or at least in the city of Rama.\n14 So they passed by Jebus, and went on their journey, and the sun went down upon them when they were by Gabaa, which is in the tribe of Benjamin:\n15 And they turned into it, to lodge there. And when they were come in, they sat in the street of the city, for no man would receive them to lodge.\n16 And behold they saw an old man, returning out of the field and from his work in the evening, and he also was of mount Ephraim, and dwelt as a stranger in Gabaa; but the men of that country were the children of Jemini.\n17 And the old man lifting up his eyes, saw the man sitting with his bundles in the street of the city, and said to him: Whence comest thou? and whither goest thou?\n18 He answered him: We came out from Bethlehem Juda, and we are going to our home, which is on the side of mount Ephraim, from whence we went to Bethlehem: and now we go to the house of God, and none will receive us under his roof:\n19 We have straw and hay for provender of the asses, and bread and wine for the use of myself and of thy handmaid, and of the servant that is with me: we want nothing but lodging.\n20 And the old man answered him: Peace be with thee: I will furnish all things that are necessary: only I beseech thee, stay not in the street.\n21 And he brought him into his house, and gave provender to his asses: and after they had washed their feet, he entertained them with a feast.\n22 While they were making merry, and refreshing their bodies with meat and drink, after the labour of the journey, the men of that city, sons of Belial, (that is, without yoke,) came and beset the old man's house, and began to knock at the door, calling to the master of the house, and saying: Bring forth the man that came into thy house, that we may abuse him.\n23 And the old man went out to them, and said: Do not so, my brethren, do not so wickedly: because this man is come into my lodging, and cease I pray you from this folly.\n24 I have a maiden daughter, and this man hath a concubine, I will bring them out to you, and you may humble them, and satisfy your lust: only, I beseech you, commit not this crime against nature on the man.\n**25 They would not be satisfied with his words; which the man seeing, brought out his concubine to them, and abandoned her to their wickedness: and when they had abused her all the night, they let her go in the morning.**\n26 But the woman, at the dawning of the day, came to the door of the house where her lord lodged, and there fell down.\n27 And in the morning the man arose, and opened the door that he might end the journey he had begun: and behold his concubine lay before the door with her hands spread on the threshold.\n28 He thinking she was taking her rest, said to her: Arise, and let us be going.

that Tryphon was gathering together a very great army, to invade the land of Juda, and to destroy it.\n2 And seeing that the people was in dread, and in fear, he went up to Jerusalem, and assembled the people:\n3 And exhorted them, saying: You know what great battles I and my brethren, and the house of my father, have fought for the laws, and the sanctuary, and the distresses that we have seen:\n4 By reason whereof all my brethren have lost their lives for Israel's sake, and I am left alone.\n5 And now far be it from me to spare my life in any time of trouble: for I am not better than my brethren.\n6 I will avenge then my nation and the sanctuary, and our children, and wives: for all the heathens are gathered together to destroy us out of mere malice.\n7 And the spirit of the people was enkindled as soon as they heard these words.\n8 And they answered with a loud voice, saying: Thou art our leader in the place of Judas, and Jonathan thy brother.\n9 Fight thou our battles, and we will do whatsoever thou shalt say to us.\n10 So gathering together all the men of war, he made haste to finish all the walls of Jerusalem, and he fortified it round about.\n11 And he sent Jonathan the son of Absalom, and with him a new army into Joppe, and he cast out them that were in it, and himself remained there.\n12 And Tryphon removed from Ptolemais with a great army, to invade the land of Juda, and Jonathan was with him in custody.\n13 But Simon pitched in Addus, over against the plain.\n14 And when Tryphon understood that Simon was risen up in the place of his brother Jonathan, and that he meant to join battle with him, he sent messengers to him,\n15 Saying: We have detained thy brother Jonathan for the money that he owed in the king's account, by reason of the affairs which he had the management of.\n16 But now send a hundred talents of silver, and his two sons for hostages, that when he is set at liberty he may not revolt from us, and we will release him.\n17 Now Simon knew that he spoke deceitfully to him, nevertheless he ordered the money, and the children to be sent: lest he should bring upon himself a great hatred of the people of Israel, who might have said:\n18 Because he sent not the money, and the children, therefore is he lost.\n19 So he sent the children, and the hundred talents: and he lied, and did not let Jonathan go.\n20 And after this Tryphon entered within the country, to destroy it: and they went about by the way that leadeth to Ador: and Simon and his army marched to every place whithersoever they went.\n21 And they that were in the castle, sent messengers to Tryphon, that he should make haste to come through the desert, and send them victuals.\n22 And Tryphon made ready all his horsemen to come that night: but there fell a very great snow, and he came not into the country of Galaad.\n23 And when he approached to Bascama, he slew Jonathan and his sons there.\n24 And Tryphon returned, and went into his own country.\n25 And Simon sent, and took the bones of Jonathan his brother, and buried them in Modin, in the city of his fathers.\n26 And all Israel bewailed him with great lamentation: and they mourned for him many days.\n27 And Simon built over the sepulchre of his father and of his brethren, a building lofty to the sight, of polished stone behind and before:\n28 And he set up seven pyramids one against another for his father and his mother, and his four brethren:\n29 And round about these he set great pillars: and upon the pillars arms for a perpetual memory: and by the arms ships carved, which might be seen by all that sailed on the sea.\n**30 This is the sepulchre that he made in Modin even unto this day.**\n31 But Tryphon when he was upon a journey with the young king Antiochus, treacherously slew him.\n32 And he reigned in his place, and put on the crown of Asia: and brought great evils upon the land.\n33 And Simon built up the strong holds of Judea, fortifying them with high towers, and great walls, and gates, and bars: and he stored up victuals in the fortresses.\n34 And Simon chose men and sent to king Demetrius, to the end that he should grant an immunity to the land: for all that Tryphon did was to spoil.\n35 And king Demetrius in answer to this request, wrote a letter in this manner:\n36 King Demetrius to Simon the high priest, and friend of kings, and to the ancients, and to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n37 The golden crown, and the palm, which you sent, we have received: and we are ready to make a firm peace with you, and to write to the king's

And in like manner the husband also hath not power of his own body, but the wife.\n5 Defraud not one another, except, perhaps, by consent, for a time, that you may give yourselves to prayer; and return together again, lest Satan tempt you for your incontinency.\n6 But I speak this by indulgence, not by commandment.\n7 For I would that all men were even as myself: but every one hath his proper gift from God; one after this manner, and another after that.\n8 But I say to the unmarried, and to the widows: It is good for them if they so continue, even as I.\n9 But if they do not contain themselves, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to be burnt.\n10 But to them that are married, not I but the Lord commandeth, that the wife depart not from her husband.\n11 And if she depart, that she remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband. And let not the husband put away his wife.\n12 For to the rest I speak, not the Lord. If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she consent to dwell with him, let him not put her away.\n13 And if any woman hath a husband that believeth not, and he consent to dwell with her, let her not put away her husband.\n14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the believing wife; and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the believing husband: otherwise your children should be unclean; but now they are holy.\n15 But if the unbeliever depart, let him depart. For a brother or sister is not under servitude in such cases. But God hath called us in peace.\n16 For how knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband?

Likewise he that is called, being free, is the bondman of Christ.\n23 You are bought with a price; be not made the bondslaves of men.\n24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he was called, therein abide with God.\n25 Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord; but I give counsel, as having obtained mercy of the Lord, to be faithful.\n26 I think therefore that this is good for the present necessity, that it is good for a man so to be.\n27 Art thou bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.\n28 But if thou take a wife, thou hast not sinned. And if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned: nevertheless, such shall have tribulation of the flesh. But I spare you.\n29 This therefore I say, brethren; the time is short; it remaineth, that they also who have wives, be as if they had none;\n30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as if they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;\n31 And they that use this world, as if they used it not: for the fashion of this world passeth away.\n32 But I would have you to be without solicitude.

For there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but only of the ship.\n23 For an angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, stood by me this night,\n24 Saying: Fear not, Paul, thou must be brought before Caesar; and behold, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.\n25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer; for I believe God that it shall so be, as it hath been told me.\n26 And we must come unto a certain island.\n27 But after the fourteenth night was come, as we were sailing in Adria, about midnight, the shipmen deemed that they discovered some country.\n28 Who also sounding, found twenty fathoms; and going on a little further, they found fifteen fathoms.\n29 Then fearing lest we should fall upon rough places, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.\n30 But as the shipmen sought to fly out of the ship, having let down the boat into the sea, under colour, as though they would have cast anchors out of the forepart of the ship,\n31 Paul said to the centurion, and to the soldiers: Except these stay in the ship, you cannot be saved.\n32 Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.\n33 And when it began to be light, Paul besought them all to take meat, saying: This day is the fourteenth day that you have waited, and continued fasting, taking nothing.\n34 Wherefore I pray you to take some meat for your health's sake; for there shall not an hair of the head of any of you perish.\n35 And when he had said these things, taking bread, he gave thanks to God in the sight of them all; and when he had broken it, he began to eat.\n36 Then were they all of better cheer, and they also took some meat.\n37 And we were in all in the ship, two hundred threescore and sixteen souls.\n38 And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, casting the wheat into the sea.\n39 And when it was day, they knew not the land; but they discovered a certain creek that had a shore, into which they minded, if they could, to thrust in the ship.\n40 And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves to the sea, loosing withal the rudder bands; and hoisting up the mainsail to the wind, they made towards shore.\n41 And when we were fallen into a place where two seas met, they run the ship aground; and the forepart indeed, sticking fast, remained unmoveable: but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the sea.\n42 And the soldiers' counsel was, that they should kill the prisoners, lest any of them, swimming out, should escape.\n43 But the centurion, willing to save Paul, forbade it to be done; and he commanded that they who could swim, should cast themselves first into the sea, and save themselves, and get to land.\n44 And the rest, some they carried on boards, and some on those things that belonged to the ship.

She that was free is made a slave.\n12 And behold our sanctuary, and our beauty, and our glory is laid waste, and the Gentiles have defiled them.\n13 To what end then should we live any longer?\n14 And Mathathias and his sons rent their garments, and they covered themselves with haircloth, and made great lamentation.\n15 And they that were sent from king Antiochus came thither, to compel them that were fled into the city of Modin, to sacrifice, and to burn incense, and to depart from the law of God.\n16 And many of the people of Israel consented, and came to them: but Mathathias and his sons stood firm.\n17 And they that were sent from Antiochus, answering, said to Mathathias: Thou art a ruler, and an honourable, and great man in this city, and adorned with sons, and brethren.\n18 Therefore come thou first, and obey the king's commandment, as all nations have done, and the men of Juda, and they that remain in Jerusalem: and thou, and thy sons, shall be in the number of the king's friends, and enriched with gold, and silver, and many presents.\n19 Then Mathathias answered, and said with a loud voice: Although all nations obey king Antiochus, so as to depart every man from the service of the law of his fathers, and consent to his commandments:\n20 I and my sons, and my brethren will obey the law of our fathers.\n21 God be merciful unto us: it is not profitable for us to forsake the law, and the justices of God:\n22 We will not hearken to the words of king Antiochus, neither will we sacrifice, and transgress the commandments of our law, to go another way.\n23 Now as he left off speaking these words, there came a certain Jew in the sight of all to sacrifice to the idols upon the altar in the city of Modin, according to the king's commandment.\n24 And Mathathias saw and was grieved, and his reins trembled, and his wrath was kindled according to the judgment of the law, and running upon him he slew him upon the altar:\n25 Moreover the man whom king Antiochus had sent, who compelled them to sacrifice, he slew at the same time, and pulled down the altar.\n26 And shewed zeal for the law, as Phinees did by Zamri the son of Salomi.\n27 And Mathathias cried out in the city with a loud voice, saying: Every one that hath zeal for the law, and maintaineth the testament, let him follow me.\n28 So he, and his sons fled into the mountains, and left all that they had in the city.\n29 Then many that sought after judgment, and justice, went down into the desert:\n30 And they abode there, they and their children, and their wives, and their cattle: because afflictions increased upon them.\n31 And it was told to the king's men, and to the army that was in Jerusalem in the city of David, that certain men who had broken the king's commandment, were gone away into the secret places in the wilderness, and that many were gone after them.\n32 And forthwith they went out towards them, and made war against them on the sabbath day,\n33 And they said to them: Do you still resist? come forth, and do according to the edict of king Antiochus, and you shall live.\n34 And they said: We will not come forth, neither will we obey the king's edict, to profane the sabbath day.\n35 And they made haste to give them battle.\n36 But they answered them not, neither did they cast a stone at them, nor stopped up the secret places,\n37 Saying: Let us all die in our innocency: and heaven and earth shall be witnesses for us, that you put us to death wrongfully.\n38 So they gave them battle on the sabbath: and they were slain with their wives, and their children, and their cattle, to the number of a thousand persons.\n39 And Mathathias and his friends heard of it, and they mourned for them exceedingly.\n40 And every man said to his neighbour: If we shall all do as our brethren have done, and not fight against the heathens for our lives, and our justifications: they will now quickly root us out of the earth.\n41 And they determined in that day, saying: Whosoever shall come up against us to fight on the sabbath day, we will fight against him: and we will not all die, as our brethren that were slain in the secret places.\n42 Then was assembled to them the congregation of the Assideans, the stoutest of Israel, every one that had a good will for the law.\n43 And all they that fled from the evils, joined themselves to them, and were a support to them.\n44 And they gathered an army, and slew the sinners in their wrath, and the wicked men in their indignation: and the rest fled to the nations for safety.\n**45 And Mathathias and his friends

And as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.\n6 And other some fell upon a rock: and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it had no moisture.\n7 And other some fell among thorns, and the thorns growing up with it, choked it.\n8 And other some fell upon good ground; and being sprung up, yielded fruit a hundredfold. Saying these things, he cried out: He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.\n9 And his disciples asked him what this parable might be.\n10 To whom he said: To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to the rest in parables, that seeing they may not see, and hearing may not understand.\n**11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.**\n12 And they by the way side are they that hear; then the devil cometh, and taketh the word out of their heart, lest believing they should be saved.\n13 Now they upon the rock, are they who when they hear, receive the word with joy: and these have no roots; for they believe for a while, and in time of temptation, they fall away.\n14 And that which fell among thorns, are they who have heard, and going their way, are choked with the cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and yield no fruit.\n15 But that on the good ground, are they who in a good and perfect heart, hearing the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit in patience.\n16 Now no man lighting a candle covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it upon a candlestick, that they who come in may see the light.\n17 For there is not any thing secret that shall not be made manifest, nor hidden, that shall not be known and come abroad.\n18 Take heed therefore how you hear.

And they launched forth.\n23 And when they were sailing, he slept; and there came down a storm of wind upon the lake, and they were filled, and were in danger.\n24 And they came and awaked him, saying: Master, we perish.

I beseech thee, do not torment me.\n29 For he commanded the unclean spirit to go out of the man. For many times it seized him, and he was bound with chains, and kept in fetters; and breaking the bonds, he was driven by the devil into the deserts.\n30 And Jesus asked him, saying: What is thy name? But he said: Legion; because many devils were entered into him.\n31 And they besought him that he would not command them to go into the abyss.\n32 And there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain; and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them. And he suffered them.\n33 The devils therefore went out of the man, and entered into the swine; and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were stifled.\n34 Which when they that fed them saw done, they fled away, and told it in the city and in the villages.\n35 And they went out to see what was done; and they came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at his feet, clothed, and in his right mind; and they were afraid.\n36 And they also that had seen, told them how he had been healed from the legion.\n37 And all the multitude of the country of the Gerasens besought him to depart from them; for they were taken with great fear.

And it happened as he went, that he was thronged by the multitudes.\n43 And there was a certain woman having an issue of blood twelve years, who had bestowed all her substance on physicians, and could not be healed by any.\n44 She came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment; and immediately the issue of her blood stopped.\n45 And Jesus said: Who is it that touched me? And all denying, Peter and they that were with him said: Master, the multitudes throng and press thee, and dost thou say, Who touched me?\n46 And Jesus said: Somebody hath touched me; for I know that virtue is gone out from me.\n47 And the woman seeing that she was not hid, came trembling, and fell down before his feet, and declared before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was immediately healed.\n48 But he said to her: Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go thy way in peace.\n49 As he was yet speaking, there cometh one to the ruler of the synagogue, saying to him: Thy daughter is dead, trouble him not.\n50 And Jesus hearing this word, answered the father of the maid: Fear not; believe only, and she shall be safe.\n51 And when he was come to the house, he suffered not any man to go in with him, but Peter and James and John, and the father and mother of the maiden.\n52 And all wept and mourned for her. But he said: Weep not; the maid is not dead, but sleepeth.\n53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.\n54 But he taking her by the hand, cried out, saying: Maid, arise.\n55 And her spirit returned, and she arose immediately.

found in *2 Maccabees*, chapter *12*.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\n*2 Maccabees Chapter 12*\n1 When these covenants were made, Lysias went to the king, and the Jews gave themselves to husbandry.\n2 But they that were behind, namely, Timotheus and Apollonius the son of Genneus, also Hieronymus, and Demophon, and besides them Nicanor the governor of Cyprus, would not suffer them to live in peace, and to be quiet.\n3 The men of Joppe also were guilty of this kind of wickedness: they desired the Jews who dwelt among them to go with their wives and children into the boats, which they had prepared, as though they had no enmity to them.\n4 Which when they had consented to, according to the common decree of the city, suspecting nothing, because of the peace: when they were gone forth into the deep, they drowned no fewer than two hundred of them.\n5 But as soon as Judas heard of this cruelty done to his countrymen, he commanded the men that were with him: and after having called upon God the just judge,\n6 He came against those murderers of his brethren, and set the haven on fire in the night, burnt the boats, and slew with the sword them that escaped from the fire.\n7 And when he had done these things in this manner, he departed as if he would return again, and root out all the Joppites.\n8 But when he understood that the men of Jamnia also designed to do in like manner to the Jews that dwelt among them,\n9 He came upon the Jamnites also by night, and set the haven on fire with the ships, so that the light of the fire was seen at Jerusalem two hundred and forty furlongs off.\n10 And when they were now gone from thence nine furlongs, and were marching towards Timotheus, five thousand footmen and five hundred horsemen of the Arabians set upon them.\n11 And after a hard fight, in which by the help of God they got the victory, the rest of the Arabians being overcome, besought Judas for peace, promising to give him pastures, and to assist him in other things.\n12 And Judas thinking that they might be profitable indeed in many things, promised them peace, and after having joined hands, they departed to their tents.\n13 He also laid siege to a certain strong city, encompassed with bridges and walls, and inhabited by multitudes of different nations, the name of which is Casphin.\n14 But they that were within it, trusting in the strength of the walls, and the provision of victuals, behaved in a more negligent manner, and provoked Judas with railing and blaspheming, and uttering such words as were not to be spoken.\n15 But Machabeus calling upon the great Lord of the world, who without any rams or engines of war threw down the walls of Jericho in the time of Josue, fiercely assaulted the walls.\n16 And having taken the city by the will of the Lord, he made an unspeakable slaughter, so that a pool adjoining of two furlongs broad seemed to run with the blood of the slain.\n17 From thence they departed seven hundred and fifty furlongs, and came to Characa to the Jews that are called Tubianites.\n18 But as for Timotheus, they found him not in those places, for before he had dispatched any thing he went back, having left a very strong garrison in a certain hold:\n19 But Dositheus, and Sosipater, who were captains with Machabeus, slew them that were left by Timotheus in the hold, to the number of ten thousand men.\n20 And Machabeus having set in order about him six thousand men, and divided them by bands, went forth against Timotheus, who had with him a hundred and twenty thousand footmen, and two thousand five hundred horsemen.\n21 Now when Timotheus had knowledge of the coming of Judas, he sent the women and children, and the other baggage before him into a fortress, called Carnion: for it was impregnable and hard to come at, by reason of the straitness of the places.\n22 But when the first band of Judas came in sight, the enemies were struck with fear, by the presence of God, who seeth all things, and they were put to flight one from another, so that they were often thrown down by their own companions, and wounded with the strokes of their own swords.\n23 But Judas was vehemently earnest in punishing the profane, of whom he slew thirty thousand men.\n24 And Timotheus himself fell into the hands of the band of Dositheus and Sosipater, and with many prayers he besought them to let him go with his life, because he had the parents and brethren of many of the Jews, who, by his death, might happen to be deceived.\n25 And when he had given his faith that he would restore them according to the agreement, they let him go without hurt, for the saving of their brethren.\n26 Then Judas went away to Carnion, where he slew five and twenty thousand persons.\n27 And after he had put to flight and destroyed these, he removed his army to Ephron, a strong city, wherein there dwelt a multitude of divers nations: and stout young men standing upon the walls made a vigorous resistance: and in this place there were many engines of war, and a provision of darts.\n**28 But when they had invocated the Almighty, who with his power breaketh the strength of the enemies, they took the city; and slew five and twenty thousand of them that were within.**\n29 From thence they departed to Scythopolis, which lieth six hundred furlongs from Jerusalem.\n30 But the Jews that were among the Scythopolitans testifying that they were used kindly by them, and that even in the times of their adversity they had treated them with humanity:\n31 They gave them thanks exhorting them to be still friendly to their nation, and so they came to Jerusalem, the feast of the weeks being at hand.\n32 And after Pentecost they marched against Gorgias the governor of Idumea.\n33 And he came out with three thousand footmen, and four hundred horsemen.\n34 And when they had joined battle, it happened that a few of the Jews were slain.\n35 But Dositheus, a horseman, one of Bacenor's band, a valiant man, took hold of Gorgias: and when he would have taken him alive, a certain horseman of the Thracians came upon him, and cut off his shoulder: and so Gorgias escaped to Maresa.\n36 But when they that were with Esdrin had fought long, and were weary, Judas called upon the Lord to be their helper, and leader of the battle:\n37 Then beginning in his own language, and singing hymns with a loud voice, he put Gorgias' soldiers to flight.\n38 So Judas having gathered together his army, came into the city Odollam: and when the seventh day came, they purified themselves according to the custom, and kept the sabbath in the place.\n39 And the day following Judas came with his company, to take away the bodies of them that were slain, and to bury them with their kinsmen, in the sepulchres of their fathers.\n40 And they found under the coats of the slain some of the donaries of the idols of Jamnia, which the law forbiddeth to the Jews: so that all plainly saw, that for this cause they were slain.\n41 Then they all blessed the just judgment of the Lord, who had discovered the things that were hidden.\n42 And so betaking themselves to prayers, they besought him, that the sin which had been committed might be forgotten. But the most valiant Judas exhorted the people to keep themselves from sin, forasmuch as they saw before their eyes what had happened, because of the sins of those that were slain.\n43 And making a gathering, he sent twelve thousand drachms of silver to Jerusalem for sacrifice to be offered for the sins of the dead, thinking well and religiously concerning the resurrection,\n44 (For if he had not hoped that they that were slain should rise again, it would have seemed superfluous and vain to pray for the dead,)\n45 And because he considered that they who had fallen asleep with godliness, had great grace laid up for them.\n46 It is therefore a holy and wholesome thought to pray for the dead, that they may be loosed from sins.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and chapter does \"And when there had been a consultation thereupon, and the captain had acquainted the multitude with it, they were all of one mind to consent to covenants.\" belong to?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in *2 Maccabees*, chapter *14*.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\n*2 Maccabees Chapter 14*\n1 But after the space of three years Judas, and they that were with him, understood that Demetrius the son of Seleucus was come up with a great power, and a navy by the haven of Tripolis to places proper for his purpose.\n2 And had made himself master of the countries against Antiochus, and his general Lysias.\n3 Now one Alcimus, who had been chief priest, but had wilfully defiled himself in the time of mingling with the heathens, seeing that there was no safety for him, nor access to the altar,\n4 Came to king Demetrius in the year one hundred and fifty, presenting unto him a crown of gold, and a palm, and besides these, some boughs which seemed to belong to the temple. And that day indeed he held his peace.\n5 But having gotten a convenient time to further his madness, being called to counsel by Demetrius, and asked what the Jews relied upon, and what were their counsels,\n6 He answered thereunto: They among the Jews that are called Assideans, of whom Judas Machabeus is captain, nourish wars, and raise seditions, and will not suffer the realm to be in peace.\n7 For I also being deprived of my ancestors' glory (I mean of the high priesthood) am now come hither:\n8 Principally indeed out of fidelity to the king's interests, but in the next place also to provide for the good of my countrymen: for all our nation suffereth much from the evil proceedings of those men.\n9 Wherefore, O king, seeing thou knowest all these things, take care, I beseech thee, both of the country, and of our nation, according to thy humanity which is known to all men,\n10 For as long as Judas liveth, it is not possible that the state should be quiet.\n11 Now when this man had spoken to this effect, the rest also of the king's friends, who were enemies of Judas, incensed Demetrius against him.\n12 And forthwith he sent Nicanor, the commander over the elephants, governor into Judea:\n13 Giving him in charge, to take Judas himself: and disperse all them that were with him, and to make Alcimus the high priest of the great temple.\n14 Then the Gentiles who had fled out of Judea from Judas, came to Nicanor by flocks, thinking the miseries and calamities of the Jews to be the welfare of their affairs.\n15 Now when the Jews heard of Nicanor's coming, and that the nations were assembled against them, they cast earth upon their heads, and made supplication to him, who chose his people to keep them for ever, and who protected his portion by evident signs.\n16 Then at the commandment of their captain, they forthwith removed from the place where they were, and went to the town of Dessau, to meet them.\n17 Now Simon the brother of Judas had joined battle with Nicanor, but was frightened with the sudden coming of the adversaries.\n18 Nevertheless Nicanor hearing of the valour of Judas' companions, and the greatness of courage with which they fought for their country, was afraid to try the matter by the sword.\n19 Wherefore he sent Posidonius, and Theodotius, and Matthias before to present and receive the right hands.\n**20 And when there had been a consultation thereupon, and the captain had acquainted the multitude with it, they were all of one mind to consent to covenants.**\n21 So they appointed a day upon which they might commune together by themselves: and seats were brought out, and set for each one.\n22 But Judas ordered men to be ready in convenient places, lest some mischief might be suddenly practiced by the enemies: so they made an agreeable conference.\n23 And Nicanor abode in Jerusalem, and did no wrong, but sent away the flocks of the multitudes that had been gathered together.\n24 And Judas was always dear to him from the heart, and he was well affected to the man.\n25 And he desired him to marry a wife, and to have children. So he married: he lived quietly, and they lived in common.\n26 But Alcimus seeing the love they had one to another, and the covenants, came to Demetrius, and told him that Nicanor assented to the foreign interest, for that he meant to make Judas, who was a traitor to the kingdom, his successor.\n27 Then the king being in a rage and provoked with this man's wicked accusations, wrote to Nicanor, signifying, that he was greatly displeased with the covenant of friendship: and that he commanded him nevertheless to send Machabeus prisoner in all haste to Antioch.\n28 When this was known, Nicanor was in a consternation, and took it grievously that he should make void the articles that were agreed upon, having received no injury from the man.\n29 But because he could not oppose the king, he watched an opportunity to comply with the orders.\n30 But when Machabeus perceived that Nicanor was more stern to him, and that when they met together as usual he behaved himself in a rough manner: and was sensible that this rough behaviour came not of good, he gathered together a few of his men, and hid himself from Nicanor.\n31 But he finding himself notably prevented by the man, came to the great and holy temple: and commanded the priests that were offering the accustomed sacrifices, to deliver him the man.\n32 And when they swore unto him, that they knew not where the man was whom he sought, he stretched out his hand to the temple,\n33 And swore, saying: Unless you deliver Judas prisoner to me, I will lay this temple of God even with the ground, and will beat down the altar, and I will dedicate this temple to Bacchus.\n34 And when he had spoken thus he departed. But the priests stretching forth their hands to heaven, called upon him that was ever the defender of their nation, saying in this manner:\n35 Thou, O Lord of all things, who wantest nothing, wast pleased that the temple of thy habitation should be amongst us.\n36 Therefore now, O Lord the holy of all holies, keep this house for ever undefiled which was lately cleansed.\n37 Now Razias, one of the ancients of Jerusalem, was accused to Nicanor, a man that was a lover of the city, and of good report, who for his affection was called the father of the Jews.\n38 This man, for a long time, had held fast his purpose of keeping himself pure in the Jews' religion, and was ready to expose his body and life, that he might persevere therein.\n39 So Nicanor being willing to declare the hatred that he bore the Jews, sent five hundred soldiers to take him.\n40 For he thought by insnaring him to hurt the Jews very much.\n41 Now as the multitude sought to rush into his house, and to break open the door, and to set fire to it, when he was ready to be taken, he struck himself with his sword:\n42 Choosing to die nobly rather than to fall into the hands of the wicked, and to suffer abuses unbecoming his noble birth.\n43 But whereas through haste he missed of giving himself a sure wound, and the crowd was breaking into the doors, he ran boldly to the wall, and manfully threw himself down to the crowd:\n44 But they quickly making room for his fall, he came upon the midst of the neck.\n45 And as he had yet breath in him, being inflamed in mind he arose: and while his blood ran down with a great stream, and he was grievously wounded, he ran through the crowd:\n46 And standing upon a steep rock, when he was now almost without blood, grasping his bowels with both hands, he cast them upon the throng, calling upon the Lord of life and spirit, to restore these to him again: and so he departed this life.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"And how can the servant of my lord speak with my lord? for no strength remaineth in me, moreover my breath is stopped.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Your verse is located in *Daniel*, chapter *10*.\n\nTake a look at the whole chapter:\n*Daniel Chapter 10*\n1 In the third year of Cyrus king of the Persians, a word was revealed to Daniel surnamed Baltassar, and a true word, and great strength: and he understood the word: for there is need of understanding in a vision.\n2 In those days I Daniel mourned the days of three weeks.\n3 I ate no desirable bread, and neither flesh, nor wine entered into my mouth, neither was I anointed with ointment: till the days of three weeks were accomplished.\n4 And in the four and twentieth day of the first month I was by the great river which is the Tigris.\n5 And I lifted up my eyes, and I saw: and behold a man clothed in linen, and his loins were girded with the finest gold:\n6 And his body was like the chrysolite, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as a burning lamp: and his arms, and all downward even to the feet, like in appearance to glittering brass: and the voice of his word like the voice of a multitude.\n7 And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw it not: but an exceeding great terror fell upon them, and they fled away, and hid themselves.\n8 And I being left alone saw this great vision: and there remained no strength in me, and the appearance of my countenance was changed in me, and I fainted away, and retained no strength.\n9 And I heard the voice of his words: and when I heard, I lay in a consternation, upon my face, and my face was close to the ground.\n10 And behold a hand touched me, and lifted me up upon my knees, and upon the joints of my hands.\n11 And he said to me: Daniel, thou man of desires, understand the words that I speak to thee, and stand upright: for I am sent now to thee.

And he broke the bands, as a man would break a thread of tow twined with spittle, when it smelleth the fire: so it was not known wherein his strength Jay.\n10 And Dalila said to him: Behold thou hast mocked me, and hast told me a false thing: but now at least tell me wherewith thou mayest be bound.\n11 And he answered her: If I shall be bound with new ropes, that were never in work, I shall be weak and like other men.\n12 Dalila bound him again with these, and cried out: The Philistines are upon thee, Samson, there being an ambush prepared for him in the chamber.
