1Ch_05_19 And they made war with the Hagarites, with Jetur, and Nephish, and Nodab.

1Ch_05_20

1Ch_05_20 And they were helped against them, and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand, and all that [were] with them: for they cried to God in the battle, and he was entreated of them; because they put their trust in him.

1Ch_09_01

1Ch_09_01 So all Israel were reckoned by genealogies; and, behold, they [were] written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah, [who] were carried away to Babylon for their transgression.

1Ch_09_02

1Ch_09_02 Now the first inhabitants that [dwelt] in their possessions in their cities [were], the Israelites, the priests, Levites, and the Nethinims.

1Ch_09_18

1Ch_09_18 Who hitherto [waited] in the king's gate eastward: they [were] porters in the companies of the children of Levi.

1Ch_09_19

1Ch_09_19 And Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his brethren, of the house of his father, the Korahites, [were] over the work of the service, keepers of the gates of the tabernacle: and their fathers, [being] over the host of the LORD, [were] keepers of the entry.

1Ch_09_20

1Ch_09_20 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar was the ruler over them in time past, [and] the LORD [was] with him.

1Ch_09_21

1Ch_09_21 [And] Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah [was] porter of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

1Ch_09_22

1Ch_09_22 All these [which were] chosen to be porters in the gates [were] two hundred and twelve. These were reckoned by their genealogy in their villages, whom David and Samuel the seer did ordain in their set office.

1Ch_09_23

1Ch_09_23 So they and their children [had] the oversight of the gates of the house of the LORD, [namely], the house of the tabernacle, by wards.

1Ch_09_24

1Ch_09_24 In four quarters were the porters, toward the east, west, north, and south.

1Ch_09_25

1Ch_09_25 And their brethren, [which were] in their villages, [were] to come after seven days from time to time with them.

1Ch_09_26

1Ch_09_26 For these Levites, the four chief porters, were in [their] set office, and were over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God.

1Ch_09_27

1Ch_09_27 And they lodged round about the house of God, because the charge [was] upon them, and the opening thereof every morning [pertained] to them.

1Ch_09_28

1Ch_09_28 And [certain] of them had the charge of the ministering vessels, that they should bring them in and out by tale.

1Ch_09_29

1Ch_09_29 [Some] of them also [were] appointed to oversee the vessels and all the instruments of the sanctuary, and the fine flour, and the wine, and the oil, and the frankincense, and the spices.

1Ch_09_30

1Ch_09_30 And [some] of the sons of the priests made the ointment of the spices.

1Ch_09_31

1Ch_09_31 And Mattithiah, [one] of the Levites, who [was] the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, had the set office over the things that were made in the pans.

1Ch_09_32

1Ch_09_32 And [other] of their brethren, of the sons of the Kohathites, [were] over the showbread, to prepare [it] every sabbath.

1Ch_09_33

1Ch_09_33 And these [are] the singers, chief of the fathers of the Levites, [who remaining] in the chambers [were] free: for they were employed in [that] work day and night.

1Ch_09_34

1Ch_09_34 These chief fathers of the Levites [were] chief throughout their generations; these dwelt at Jerusalem.

1Ch_09_35

1Ch_09_35 And in Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon, Jehiel, whose wife's name [was] Maachah:

1Ch_09_36

1Ch_09_36 And his firstborn son Abdon, then Zur, and Kish, and Baal, and Ner, and Nadab,

1Ch_09_37

1Ch_09_37 And Gedor, and Ahio, and Zechariah, and Mikloth.

1Ch_09_43

1Ch_09_43 And Moza begat Binea; and Rephaiah his son, Eleasah his son, Azel his son.

1Ch_09_44

1Ch_09_44 And Azel had six sons, whose names [are] these, Azrikam, Bocheru, and Ishmael, and Sheariah, and Obadiah, and Hanan: these [were] the sons of Azel.

1Ch_10_01

1Ch_10_01 Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.

1Ch_10_02

1Ch_10_02 And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.

1Ch_10_03

1Ch_10_03 And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit him, and he was wounded of the archers.

1Ch_10_04

1Ch_10_04 Then said Saul to his armourbearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armourbearer would not; for he was sore afraid. So Saul took a sword, and fell upon it.

1Ch_10_05

1Ch_10_05 And when his armourbearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise on the sword, and died.

1Ch_10_06

1Ch_10_06 So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house died together.

1Ch_10_07

1Ch_10_07 And when all the men of Israel that [were] in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, then they forsook their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.

1Ch_10_08

1Ch_10_08 And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his sons fallen in mount Gilboa.

1Ch_10_09

1Ch_10_09 And when they had stripped him, they took his head, and his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to carry tidings unto their idols, and to the people.

1Ch_10_10

1Ch_10_10 And they put his armour in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon.

1Ch_10_11

1Ch_10_11 And when all Jabeshgilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,

1Ch_10_12

1Ch_10_12 They arose, all the valiant men, and took away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.

1Ch_10_13

1Ch_10_13 So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the LORD, [even] against the word of the LORD, which he kept not, and also for asking [counsel] of [one that had] a familiar spirit, to inquire [of it];

1Ch_10_14

1Ch_10_14 And inquired not of the LORD: therefore he slew him, and turned the kingdom unto David the son of Jesse.

1Ch_11_01

1Ch_11_01 Then all Israel gathered themselves to David unto Hebron, saying, Behold, we [are] thy bone and thy flesh.

1Ch_11_02

1Ch_11_02 And moreover in time past, even when Saul was king, thou [wast] he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the LORD thy God said unto thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be ruler over my people Israel.

1Ch_11_03

1Ch_11_03 Therefore came all the elders of Israel to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the LORD by Samuel.

1Ch_11_04

1Ch_11_04 And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem, which [is] Jebus; where the Jebusites [were], the inhabitants of the land.

1Ch_11_05

1Ch_11_05 And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, Thou shalt not come hither. Nevertheless David took the castle of Zion, which [is] the city of David.

1Ch_11_06

1Ch_11_06 And David said, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain. So Joab the son of Zeruiah went first up, and was chief.

1Ch_11_07

1Ch_11_07 And David dwelt in the castle; therefore they called it the city of David.

1Ch_11_08

1Ch_11_08 And he built the city round about, even from Millo round about: and Joab repaired the rest of the city.

1Ch_11_09

1Ch_11_09 So David waxed greater and greater: for the LORD of hosts [was] with him.

1Ch_11_10

1Ch_11_10 These also [are] the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who strengthened themselves with him in his kingdom, [and] with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of the LORD concerning Israel.

1Ch_11_11

1Ch_11_11 And this [is] the number of the mighty men whom David had; Jashobeam, an Hachmonite, the chief of the captains: he lifted up his spear against three hundred slain [by him] at one time.

1Ch_11_12

1Ch_11_12 And after him [was] Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who [was one] of the three mighties.

1Ch_11_13

1Ch_11_13 He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where was a parcel of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.

1Ch_11_14

1Ch_11_14 And they set themselves in the midst of [that] parcel, and delivered it, and slew the Philistines; and the LORD saved [them] by a great deliverance.

1Ch_11_15

1Ch_11_15 Now three of the thirty captains went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the host of the Philistines encamped in the valley of Rephaim.

1Ch_11_16

1Ch_11_16 And David [was] then in the hold, and the Philistines' garrison [was] then at Bethlehem.

1Ch_11_17

1Ch_11_17 And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, that [is] at the gate!

1Ch_11_18

1Ch_11_18 And the three brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that [was] by the gate, and took [it], and brought [it] to David: but David would not drink [of] it, but poured it out to the LORD,

1Ch_11_19

1Ch_11_19 And said, My God forbid it me, that I should do this thing: shall I drink the blood of these men that have put their lives in jeopardy? for with [the jeopardy of] their lives they brought it. Therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three mightiest.

1Ch_11_20

1Ch_11_20 And Abishai the brother of Joab, he was chief of the three: for lifting up his spear against three hundred, he slew [them], and had a name among the three.

1Ch_11_21

1Ch_11_21 Of the three, he was more honourable than the two; for he was their captain: howbeit he attained not to the [first] three.

1Ch_11_22

1Ch_11_22 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done many acts; he slew two lionlike men of Moab: also he went down and slew a lion in a pit in a snowy day.

1Ch_11_23

1Ch_11_23 And he slew an Egyptian, a man of [great] stature, five cubits high; and in the Egyptian's hand [was] a spear like a weaver's beam; and he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.

1Ch_11_24

1Ch_11_24 These [things] did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had the name among the three mighties.

1Ch_11_25

1Ch_11_25 Behold, he was honourable among the thirty, but attained not to the [first] three: and David set him over his guard.

1Ch_11_26

1Ch_11_26 Also the valiant men of the armies [were], Asahel the brother of Joab, Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,

1Ch_11_27

1Ch_12_01

1Ch_12_01 Now these [are] they that came to David to Ziklag, while he yet kept himself close because of Saul the son of Kish: and they [were] among the mighty men, helpers of the war.

1Ch_12_02

1Ch_12_02 [They were] armed with bows, and could use both the right hand and the left in [hurling] stones and [shooting] arrows out of a bow, [even] of Saul's brethren of Benjamin.

1Ch_12_16

1Ch_12_16 And there came of the children of Benjamin and Judah to the hold unto David.

1Ch_12_17

1Ch_12_17 And David went out to meet them, and answered and said unto them, If ye be come peaceably unto me to help me, mine heart shall be knit unto you: but if [ye be come] to betray me to mine enemies, seeing [there is] no wrong in mine hands, the God of our fathers look [thereon], and rebuke [it].

1Ch_12_18

1Ch_12_18 Then the spirit came upon Amasai, [who was] chief of the captains, [and he said], Thine [are we], David, and on thy side, thou son of Jesse: peace, peace [be] unto thee, and peace [be] to thine helpers; for thy God helpeth thee. Then David received them, and made them captains of the band.

1Ch_12_19

1Ch_12_19 And there fell [some] of Manasseh to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle: but they helped them not: for the lords of the Philistines upon advisement sent him away, saying, He will fall to his master Saul to [the jeopardy of] our heads.

1Ch_12_20

1Ch_12_20 As he went to Ziklag, there fell to him of Manasseh, Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zilthai, captains of the thousands that [were] of Manasseh.

1Ch_12_21

1Ch_12_21 And they helped David against the band [of the rovers]: for they [were] all mighty men of valour, and were captains in the host.

1Ch_12_22

1Ch_12_22 For at [that] time day by day there came to David to help him, until [it was] a great host, like the host of God.

1Ch_12_23

1Ch_12_23 And these [are] the numbers of the bands [that were] ready armed to the war, [and] came to David to Hebron, to turn the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of the LORD.

1Ch_12_24

1Ch_12_24 The children of Judah that bare shield and spear [were] six thousand and eight hundred, ready armed to the war.

1Ch_12_25

1Ch_12_25 Of the children of Simeon, mighty men of valour for the war, seven thousand and one hundred.

1Ch_12_26

1Ch_12_26 Of the children of Levi four thousand and six hundred.

1Ch_12_27

1Ch_12_27 And Jehoiada [was] the leader of the Aaronites, and with him [were] three thousand and seven hundred;

1Ch_12_28

1Ch_12_28 And Zadok, a young man mighty of valour, and of his father's house twenty and two captains.

1Ch_12_29

1Ch_12_29 And of the children of Benjamin, the kindred of Saul, three thousand: for hitherto the greatest part of them had kept the ward of the house of Saul.

1Ch_12_30

1Ch_12_30 And of the children of Ephraim twenty thousand and eight hundred, mighty men of valour, famous throughout the house of their fathers.

1Ch_12_31

1Ch_12_31 And of the half tribe of Manasseh eighteen thousand, which were expressed by name, to come and make David king.

1Ch_12_32

1Ch_12_32 And of the children of Issachar, [which were men] that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them [were] two hundred; and all their brethren [were] at their commandment.

1Ch_12_33

1Ch_12_33 Of Zebulun, such as went forth to battle, expert in war, with all instruments of war, fifty thousand, which could keep rank: [they were] not of double heart.

1Ch_12_34

1Ch_12_34 And of Naphtali a thousand captains, and with them with shield and spear thirty and seven thousand.

1Ch_12_35

1Ch_12_35 And of the Danites expert in war twenty and eight thousand and six hundred.

1Ch_12_36

1Ch_12_36 And of Asher, such as went forth to battle, expert in war, forty thousand.

1Ch_12_37

1Ch_12_37 And on the other side of Jordan, of the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and of the half tribe of Manasseh, with all manner of instruments of war for the battle, an hundred and twenty thousand.

1Ch_12_38

1Ch_12_38 All these men of war, that could keep rank, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel: and all the rest also of Israel [were] of one heart to make David king.

1Ch_12_39

1Ch_12_39 And there they were with David three days, eating and drinking: for their brethren had prepared for them.

1Ch_12_40

1Ch_12_40 Moreover they that were nigh them, [even] unto Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, brought bread on asses, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen, [and] meat, meal, cakes of figs, and bunches of raisins, and wine, and oil, and oxen, and sheep abundantly: for [there was] joy in Israel.

1Ch_13_01

1Ch_13_01 And David consulted with the captains of thousands and hundreds, [and] with every leader.

1Ch_13_02

1Ch_13_02 And David said unto all the congregation of Israel, If [it seem] good unto you, and [that it be] of the LORD our God, let us send abroad unto our brethren every where, [that are] left in all the land of Israel, and with them [also] to the priests and Levites [which are] in their cities [and] suburbs, that they may gather themselves unto us:

1Ch_13_03

1Ch_13_03 And let us bring again the ark of our God to us: for we inquired not at it in the days of Saul.

1Ch_13_04

1Ch_13_04 And all the congregation said that they would do so: for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.

1Ch_13_05

1Ch_13_05 So David gathered all Israel together, from Shihor of Egypt even unto the entering of Hemath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjathjearim.

1Ch_13_06

1Ch_13_06 And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, [that is], to Kirjathjearim, which [belonged] to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God the LORD, that dwelleth [between] the cherubims, whose name is called [on it].

1Ch_13_07

1Ch_13_07 And they carried the ark of God in a new cart out of the house of Abinadab: and Uzza and Ahio drave the cart.

1Ch_13_08

1Ch_13_08 And David and all Israel played before God with all [their] might, and with singing, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.

1Ch_13_09

1Ch_13_09 And when they came unto the threshingfloor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.

1Ch_13_10

1Ch_13_10 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him, because he put his hand to the ark: and there he died before God.

1Ch_13_11

1Ch_13_11 And David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzza: wherefore that place is called Perezuzza to this day.

1Ch_13_12

1Ch_13_12 And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God [home] to me?

1Ch_13_13

1Ch_13_13 So David brought not the ark [home] to himself to the city of David, but carried it aside into the house of Obededom the Gittite.

1Ch_13_14

1Ch_13_14 And the ark of God remained with the family of Obededom in his house three months. And the LORD blessed the house of Obededom, and all that he had.

1Ch_14_01

1Ch_14_01 Now Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and timber of cedars, with masons and carpenters, to build him an house.

1Ch_14_02

1Ch_14_02 And David perceived that the LORD had confirmed him king over Israel, for his kingdom was lifted up on high, because of his people Israel.

1Ch_14_03

1Ch_14_03 And David took more wives at Jerusalem: and David begat more sons and daughters.

1Ch_14_04

1Ch_14_04 Now these [are] the names of [his] children which he had in Jerusalem; Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,

1Ch_14_05

1Ch_14_05 And Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpalet,

1Ch_14_06

1Ch_14_06 And Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,

1Ch_14_07

1Ch_14_07 And Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphalet.

1Ch_14_08

1Ch_14_08 And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David. And David heard [of it], and went out against them.

1Ch_14_09

1Ch_14_09 And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

1Ch_14_10

1Ch_14_10 And David inquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into mine hand? And the LORD said unto him, Go up; for I will deliver them into thine hand.

1Ch_14_11

1Ch_14_11 So they came up to Baalperazim; and David smote them there. Then David said, God hath broken in upon mine enemies by mine hand like the breaking forth of waters: therefore they called the name of that place Baalperazim.

1Ch_14_12

1Ch_14_12 And when they had left their gods there, David gave a commandment, and they were burned with fire.

1Ch_14_13

1Ch_14_13 And the Philistines yet again spread themselves abroad in the valley.

1Ch_14_14

1Ch_14_14 Therefore David inquired again of God; and God said unto him, Go not up after them; turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry trees.

1Ch_14_15

1Ch_14_15 And it shall be, when thou shalt hear a sound of going in the tops of the mulberry trees, [that] then thou shalt go out to battle: for God is gone forth before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.

1Ch_14_16

1Ch_14_16 David therefore did as God commanded him: and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gazer.

1Ch_14_17

1Ch_14_17 And the fame of David went out into all lands; and the LORD brought the fear of him upon all nations.

1Ch_15_01

1Ch_15_01 And [David] made him houses in the city of David, and prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent.

1Ch_15_02

1Ch_15_02 Then David said, None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites: for them hath the LORD chosen to carry the ark of God, and to minister unto him for ever.

1Ch_15_03

1Ch_15_03 And David gathered all Israel together to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the LORD unto his place, which he had prepared for it.

1Ch_15_04

1Ch_15_04 And David assembled the children of Aaron, and the Levites:

1Ch_15_05

1Ch_15_05 Of the sons of Kohath; Uriel the chief, and his brethren an hundred and twenty:

1Ch_15_06

1Ch_15_06 Of the sons of Merari; Asaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty:

1Ch_15_07

1Ch_15_07 Of the sons of Gershom; Joel the chief, and his brethren an hundred and thirty:

1Ch_15_08

1Ch_15_08 Of the sons of Elizaphan; Shemaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred:

1Ch_15_09

1Ch_15_09 Of the sons of Hebron; Eliel the chief, and his brethren fourscore:

1Ch_15_10

1Ch_15_10 Of the sons of Uzziel; Amminadab the chief, and his brethren an hundred and twelve.

1Ch_15_11

1Ch_15_11 And David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab,

1Ch_15_12

1Ch_15_12 And said unto them, Ye [are] the chief of the fathers of the Levites: sanctify yourselves, [both] ye and your brethren, that ye may bring up the ark of the LORD God of Israel unto [the place that] I have prepared for it.

1Ch_15_13

1Ch_15_13 For because ye [did it] not at the first, the LORD our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due order.

1Ch_15_14

1Ch_15_14 So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of the LORD God of Israel.

1Ch_15_15

1Ch_15_15 And the children of the Levites bare the ark of God upon their shoulders with the staves thereon, as Moses commanded according to the word of the LORD.

1Ch_15_16

1Ch_15_16 And David spake to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brethren [to be] the singers with instruments of music, psalteries and harps and cymbals, sounding, by lifting up the voice with joy.

1Ch_15_17

1Ch_15_17 So the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel; and of his brethren, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brethren, Ethan the son of Kushaiah;

1Ch_15_18

1Ch_15_18 And with them their brethren of the second [degree], Zechariah, Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obededom, and Jeiel, the porters.

1Ch_15_19

1Ch_15_19 So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, [were appointed] to sound with cymbals of brass;

1Ch_15_20

1Ch_15_20 And Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with psalteries on Alamoth;

1Ch_15_21

1Ch_15_21 And Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obededom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps on the Sheminith to excel.

1Ch_15_22

1Ch_15_22 And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, [was] for song: he instructed about the song, because he [was] skilful.

1Ch_15_23

1Ch_15_23 And Berechiah and Elkanah [were] doorkeepers for the ark.

1Ch_15_24

1Ch_15_24 And Shebaniah, and Jehoshaphat, and Nethaneel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, did blow with the trumpets before the ark of God: and Obededom and Jehiah [were] doorkeepers for the ark.

1Ch_15_25

1Ch_15_25 So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the house of Obededom with joy.

1Ch_15_26

1Ch_15_26 And it came to pass, when God helped the Levites that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, that they offered seven bullocks and seven rams.

1Ch_15_27

1Ch_15_27 And David [was] clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites that bare the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah the master of the song with the singers: David also [had] upon him an ephod of linen.

1Ch_15_28

1Ch_15_28 Thus all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the LORD with shouting, and with sound of the cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, making a noise with psalteries and harps.

1Ch_15_29

1Ch_15_29 And it came to pass, [as] the ark of the covenant of the LORD came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looking out at a window saw king David dancing and playing: and she despised him in her heart.

1Ch_16_01

1Ch_16_01 So they brought the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it: and they offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings before God.

1Ch_16_02

1Ch_16_02 And when David had made an end of offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD.

1Ch_16_03

1Ch_16_03 And he dealt to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon [of wine].

1Ch_16_04

1Ch_16_04 And he appointed [certain] of the Levites to minister before the ark of the LORD, and to record, and to thank and praise the LORD God of Israel:

1Ch_16_05

1Ch_16_05 Asaph the chief, and next to him Zechariah, Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obededom: and Jeiel with psalteries and with harps; but Asaph made a sound with cymbals;

1Ch_16_06

1Ch_16_06 Benaiah also and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.

1Ch_16_07

1Ch_16_07 Then on that day David delivered first [this psalm] to thank the LORD into the hand of Asaph and his brethren.

1Ch_16_08

1Ch_16_08 Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people.

1Ch_16_09

1Ch_16_09 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk ye of all his wondrous works.

1Ch_16_10

1Ch_16_10 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.

1Ch_16_11

1Ch_16_11 Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually.

1Ch_16_12

1Ch_16_12 Remember his marvellous works that he hath done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;

1Ch_16_13

1Ch_16_13 O ye seed of Israel his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.

1Ch_16_14

1Ch_16_14 He [is] the LORD our God; his judgments [are] in all the earth.

1Ch_16_15

1Ch_16_15 Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word [which] he commanded to a thousand generations;

1Ch_16_16

1Ch_16_16 [Even of the covenant] which he made with Abraham, and of his oath unto Isaac;

1Ch_16_17

1Ch_16_17 And hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, [and] to Israel [for] an everlasting covenant,

1Ch_16_18

1Ch_16_18 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;

1Ch_16_19

1Ch_16_19 When ye were but few, even a few, and strangers in it.

1Ch_16_20

1Ch_16_20 And [when] they went from nation to nation, and from [one] kingdom to another people;

1Ch_16_21

1Ch_16_21 He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes,

1Ch_16_22

1Ch_16_22 [Saying], Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.

1Ch_16_23

1Ch_16_23 Sing unto the LORD, all the earth; show forth from day to day his salvation.

1Ch_16_24

1Ch_16_24 Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations.

1Ch_16_25

1Ch_16_25 For great [is] the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he also [is] to be feared above all gods.

1Ch_16_26

1Ch_16_26 For all the gods of the people [are] idols: but the LORD made the heavens.

1Ch_16_27

1Ch_16_27 Glory and honour [are] in his presence; strength and gladness [are] in his place.

1Ch_16_28

1Ch_16_28 Give unto the LORD, ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength.

1Ch_16_29

1Ch_16_29 Give unto the LORD the glory [due] unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

1Ch_16_30

1Ch_16_30 Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.

1Ch_16_31

1Ch_16_31 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let [men] say among the nations, The LORD reigneth.

1Ch_16_32

1Ch_16_32 Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all that [is] therein.

1Ch_16_33

1Ch_16_33 Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the LORD, because he cometh to judge the earth.

1Ch_16_34

1Ch_16_34 O give thanks unto the LORD; for [he is] good; for his mercy [endureth] for ever.

1Ch_16_35

1Ch_16_35 And say ye, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give thanks to thy holy name, [and] glory in thy praise.

1Ch_16_36

1Ch_16_36 Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen, and praised the LORD.

1Ch_16_37

1Ch_16_37 So he left there before the ark of the covenant of the LORD Asaph and his brethren, to minister before the ark continually, as every day's work required:

1Ch_16_38

1Ch_16_38 And Obededom with their brethren, threescore and eight; Obededom also the son of Jeduthun and Hosah [to be] porters:

1Ch_16_39

1Ch_16_39 And Zadok the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of the LORD in the high place that [was] at Gibeon,

1Ch_16_40

1Ch_16_40 To offer burnt offerings unto the LORD upon the altar of the burnt offering continually morning and evening, and [to do] according to all that is written in the law of the LORD, which he commanded Israel;

1Ch_16_41

1Ch_16_41 And with them Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest that were chosen, who were expressed by name, to give thanks to the LORD, because his mercy [endureth] for ever;

1Ch_16_42

1Ch_16_42 And with them Heman and Jeduthun with trumpets and cymbals for those that should make a sound, and with musical instruments of God. And the sons of Jeduthun [were] porters.

1Ch_16_43

1Ch_16_43 And all the people departed every man to his house: and David returned to bless his house.

1Ch_17_01

1Ch_17_01 Now it came to pass, as David sat in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Lo, I dwell in an house of cedars, but the ark of the covenant of the LORD [remaineth] under curtains.

1Ch_17_02

1Ch_17_02 Then Nathan said unto David, Do all that [is] in thine heart; for God [is] with thee.

1Ch_17_03

1Ch_17_03 And it came to pass the same night, that the word of God came to Nathan, saying,

1Ch_17_04

1Ch_17_04 Go and tell David my servant, Thus saith the LORD, Thou shalt not build me an house to dwell in:

1Ch_17_05

1Ch_17_05 For I have not dwelt in an house since the day that I brought up Israel unto this day; but have gone from tent to tent, and from [one] tabernacle [to another].

1Ch_17_06

1Ch_17_06 Wheresoever I have walked with all Israel, spake I a word to any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to feed my people, saying, Why have ye not built me an house of cedars?

1Ch_17_07

1Ch_17_07 Now therefore thus shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I took thee from the sheepcote, [even] from following the sheep, that thou shouldest be ruler over my people Israel:

1Ch_17_08

1Ch_17_08 And I have been with thee whithersoever thou hast walked, and have cut off all thine enemies from before thee, and have made thee a name like the name of the great men that [are] in the earth.

1Ch_17_09

1Ch_17_09 Also I will ordain a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, and they shall dwell in their place, and shall be moved no more; neither shall the children of wickedness waste them any more, as at the beginning,

1Ch_17_10

1Ch_17_10 And since the time that I commanded judges [to be] over my people Israel. Moreover I will subdue all thine enemies. Furthermore I tell thee that the LORD will build thee an house.

1Ch_17_11

1Ch_17_11 And it shall come to pass, when thy days be expired that thou must go [to be] with thy fathers, that I will raise up thy seed after thee, which shall be of thy sons; and I will establish his kingdom.

1Ch_17_12

1Ch_17_12 He shall build me an house, and I will stablish his throne for ever.

1Ch_17_13

1Ch_17_13 I will be his father, and he shall be my son: and I will not take my mercy away from him, as I took [it] from [him] that was before thee:

1Ch_17_14

1Ch_17_14 But I will settle him in mine house and in my kingdom for ever: and his throne shall be established for evermore.

1Ch_17_15

1Ch_17_15 According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.

1Ch_17_16

1Ch_17_16 And David the king came and sat before the LORD, and said, Who [am] I, O LORD God, and what [is] mine house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?

1Ch_17_17

1Ch_17_17 And [yet] this was a small thing in thine eyes, O God; for thou hast [also] spoken of thy servant's house for a great while to come, and hast regarded me according to the estate of a man of high degree, O LORD God.

1Ch_17_18

1Ch_17_18 What can David [speak] more to thee for the honour of thy servant? for thou knowest thy servant.

1Ch_17_19

1Ch_17_19 O LORD, for thy servant's sake, and according to thine own heart, hast thou done all this greatness, in making known all [these] great things.

1Ch_17_20

1Ch_17_20 O LORD, [there is] none like thee, neither [is there any] God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

1Ch_17_21

1Ch_17_21 And what one nation in the earth [is] like thy people Israel, whom God went to redeem [to be] his own people, to make thee a name of greatness and terribleness, by driving out nations from before thy people, whom thou hast redeemed out of Egypt?

1Ch_17_22

1Ch_17_22 For thy people Israel didst thou make thine own people for ever; and thou, LORD, becamest their God.

1Ch_17_23

1Ch_17_23 Therefore now, LORD, let the thing that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant and concerning his house be established for ever, and do as thou hast said.

1Ch_17_24

1Ch_17_24 Let it even be established, that thy name may be magnified for ever, saying, The LORD of hosts [is] the God of Israel, [even] a God to Israel: and [let] the house of David thy servant [be] established before thee.

1Ch_17_25

1Ch_17_25 For thou, O my God, hast told thy servant that thou wilt build him an house: therefore thy servant hath found [in his heart] to pray before thee.

1Ch_17_26

1Ch_17_26 And now, LORD, thou art God, and hast promised this goodness unto thy servant:

1Ch_17_27

1Ch_17_27 Now therefore let it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may be before thee for ever: for thou blessest, O LORD, and [it shall be] blessed for ever.

1Ch_18_01

1Ch_18_01 Now after this it came to pass, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them, and took Gath and her towns out of the hand of the Philistines.

1Ch_18_02

1Ch_18_02 And he smote Moab; and the Moabites became David's servants, [and] brought gifts.

1Ch_18_03

1Ch_18_03 And David smote Hadarezer king of Zobah unto Hamath, as he went to stablish his dominion by the river Euphrates.

1Ch_18_04

1Ch_18_04 And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: David also hocked all the chariot [horses], but reserved of them an hundred chariots.

1Ch_18_05

1Ch_18_05 And when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadarezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.

1Ch_18_06

1Ch_18_06 Then David put [garrisons] in Syriadamascus; and the Syrians became David's servants, [and] brought gifts. Thus the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.

1Ch_18_07

1Ch_18_07 And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.

1Ch_18_08

1Ch_18_08 Likewise from Tibhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, brought David very much brass, wherewith Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.

1Ch_18_09

1Ch_18_09 Now when Tou king of Hamath heard how David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer king of Zobah;

1Ch_18_10

1Ch_18_10 He sent Hadoram his son to king David, to inquire of his welfare, and to congratulate him, because he had fought against Hadarezer, and smitten him; (for Hadarezer had war with Tou;) and [with him] all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.

1Ch_18_11

1Ch_18_11 Them also king David dedicated unto the LORD, with the silver and the gold that he brought from all [these] nations; from Edom, and from Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek.

1Ch_18_12

1Ch_18_12 Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah slew of the Edomites in the valley of salt eighteen thousand.

1Ch_18_13

1Ch_18_13 And he put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became David's servants. Thus the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.

1Ch_18_14

1Ch_18_14 So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his people.

1Ch_18_15

1Ch_18_15 And Joab the son of Zeruiah [was] over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, recorder.

1Ch_18_16

1Ch_18_16 And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Abimelech the son of Abiathar, [were] the priests; and Shavsha was scribe;

1Ch_18_17

1Ch_18_17 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada [was] over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David [were] chief about the king.

1Ch_19_01

1Ch_19_01 Now it came to pass after this, that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.

1Ch_19_02

1Ch_19_02 And David said, I will show kindness unto Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.

1Ch_19_03

1Ch_19_03 But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Thinkest thou that David doth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters unto thee? are not his servants come unto thee for to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?

1Ch_19_04

1Ch_19_04 Wherefore Hanun took David's servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the midst hard by their buttocks, and sent them away.

1Ch_19_05

1Ch_19_05 Then there went [certain], and told David how the men were served. And he sent to meet them: for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and [then] return.

1Ch_19_06

1Ch_19_06 And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syriamaachah, and out of Zobah.

1Ch_19_07

1Ch_19_07 So they hired thirty and two thousand chariots, and the king of Maachah and his people; who came and pitched before Medeba. And the children of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cities, and came to battle.

1Ch_19_08

1Ch_19_08 And when David heard [of it], he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.

1Ch_19_09

1Ch_19_09 And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array before the gate of the city: and the kings that were come [were] by themselves in the field.

1Ch_19_10

1Ch_19_10 Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he chose out of all the choice of Israel, and put [them] in array against the Syrians.

1Ch_19_11

1Ch_19_11 And the rest of the people he delivered unto the hand of Abishai his brother, and they set [themselves] in array against the children of Ammon.

1Ch_19_12

1Ch_19_12 And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me: but if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will help thee.

1Ch_19_13

1Ch_19_13 Be of good courage, and let us behave ourselves valiantly for our people, and for the cities of our God: and let the LORD do [that which is] good in his sight.

1Ch_19_14

1Ch_19_14 So Joab and the people that [were] with him drew nigh before the Syrians unto the battle; and they fled before him.

1Ch_19_15

1Ch_19_15 And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.

1Ch_19_16

1Ch_19_16 And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that [were] beyond the river: and Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer [went] before them.

1Ch_19_17

1Ch_19_17 And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over Jordan, and came upon them, and set [the battle] in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him.

1Ch_19_18

1Ch_19_18 But the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand [men which fought in] chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the host.

1Ch_19_19

1Ch_19_19 And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and became his servants: neither would the Syrians help the children of Ammon any more.

1Ch_20_01

1Ch_20_01 And it came to pass, that after the year was expired, at the time that kings go out [to battle], Joab led forth the power of the army, and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and destroyed it.

1Ch_20_02

1Ch_20_02 And David took the crown of their king from off his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and [there were] precious stones in it; and it was set upon David's head: and he brought also exceeding much spoil out of the city.

1Ch_20_03

1Ch_20_03 And he brought out the people that [were] in it, and cut [them] with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. Even so dealt David with all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.

1Ch_20_04

1Ch_20_04 And it came to pass after this, that there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines; at which time Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Sippai, [that was] of the children of the giant: and they were subdued.

1Ch_20_05

1Ch_20_05 And there was war again with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spear staff [was] like a weaver's beam.

1Ch_20_06

1Ch_20_06 And yet again there was war at Gath, where was a man of [great] stature, whose fingers and toes [were] four and twenty, six [on each hand], and six [on each foot]: and he also was the son of the giant.

1Ch_20_07

1Ch_20_07 But when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David's brother slew him.

1Ch_20_08

1Ch_20_08 These were born unto the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.

1Ch_21_01

1Ch_21_01 And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.

1Ch_21_02

1Ch_21_02 And David said to Joab and to the rulers of the people, Go, number Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, that I may know [it].

1Ch_21_03

1Ch_21_03 And Joab answered, The LORD make his people an hundred times so many more as they [be]: but, my lord the king, [are] they not all my lord's servants? why then doth my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of trespass to Israel?

1Ch_21_04

1Ch_21_04 Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Wherefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.

1Ch_21_05

1Ch_21_05 And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people unto David. And all [they of] Israel were a thousand thousand and an hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah [was] four hundred threescore and ten thousand men that drew sword.

1Ch_21_06

1Ch_21_06 But Levi and Benjamin counted he not among them: for the king's word was abominable to Joab.

1Ch_21_07

1Ch_21_07 And God was displeased with this thing; therefore he smote Israel.

1Ch_21_08

1Ch_21_08 And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, because I have done this thing: but now, I beseech thee, do away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.

1Ch_21_09

1Ch_21_09 And the LORD spake unto Gad, David's seer, saying,

1Ch_21_10

1Ch_21_10 Go and tell David, saying, Thus saith the LORD, I offer thee three [things]: choose thee one of them, that I may do [it] unto thee.

1Ch_21_11

1Ch_21_11 So Gad came to David, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Choose thee

1Ch_21_12

1Ch_21_12 Either three years' famine; or three months to be destroyed before thy foes, while that the sword of thine enemies overtaketh [thee]; or else three days the sword of the LORD, even the pestilence, in the land, and the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the coasts of Israel. Now therefore advise thyself what word I shall bring again to him that sent me.

1Ch_21_13

1Ch_21_13 And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall now into the hand of the LORD; for very great [are] his mercies: but let me not fall into the hand of man.

1Ch_21_14

1Ch_21_14 So the LORD sent pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.

1Ch_21_15

1Ch_21_15 And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the LORD beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough, stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD stood by the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.

1Ch_21_16

1Ch_21_16 And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the LORD stand between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders [of Israel, who were] clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.

1Ch_21_17

1Ch_21_17 And David said unto God, [Is it] not I [that] commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done evil indeed; but [as for] these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, O LORD my God, be on me, and on my father's house; but not on thy people, that they should be plagued.

1Ch_21_18

1Ch_21_18 Then the angel of the LORD commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and set up an altar unto the LORD in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.

1Ch_21_19

1Ch_21_19 And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spake in the name of the LORD.

1Ch_21_20

1Ch_21_20 And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.

1Ch_21_21

1Ch_21_21 And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshingfloor, and bowed himself to David with [his] face to the ground.

1Ch_21_22

1Ch_21_22 Then David said to Ornan, Grant me the place of [this] threshingfloor, that I may build an altar therein unto the LORD: thou shalt grant it me for the full price: that the plague may be stayed from the people.

1Ch_21_23

1Ch_21_23 And Ornan said unto David, Take [it] to thee, and let my lord the king do [that which is] good in his eyes: lo, I give [thee] the oxen [also] for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meat offering; I give it all.

1Ch_21_24

1Ch_21_24 And king David said to Ornan, Nay; but I will verily buy it for the full price: for I will not take [that] which [is] thine for the LORD, nor offer burnt offerings without cost.

1Ch_21_25

1Ch_21_25 So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.

1Ch_21_26

1Ch_21_26 And David built there an altar unto the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called upon the LORD; and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt offering.

1Ch_21_27

1Ch_21_27 And the LORD commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof.

1Ch_21_28

1Ch_21_28 At that time when David saw that the LORD had answered him in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.

1Ch_21_29

1Ch_21_29 For the tabernacle of the LORD, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt offering, [were] at that season in the high place at Gibeon.

1Ch_21_30

1Ch_21_30 But David could not go before it to inquire of God: for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of the LORD.

1Ch_22_01

1Ch_22_01 Then David said, This [is] the house of the LORD God, and this [is] the altar of the burnt offering for Israel.

1Ch_22_02

1Ch_22_02 And David commanded to gather together the strangers that [were] in the land of Israel; and he set masons to hew wrought stones to build the house of God.

1Ch_22_03

1Ch_22_03 And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates, and for the joinings; and brass in abundance without weight;

1Ch_22_04

1Ch_22_04 Also cedar trees in abundance: for the Zidonians and they of Tyre brought much cedar wood to David.

1Ch_22_05

1Ch_22_05 And David said, Solomon my son [is] young and tender, and the house [that is] to be builded for the LORD [must be] exceeding magnifical, of fame and of glory throughout all countries: I will [therefore] now make preparation for it. So David prepared abundantly before his death.

1Ch_22_06

1Ch_22_06 Then he called for Solomon his son, and charged him to build an house for the LORD God of Israel.

1Ch_22_07

1Ch_22_07 And David said to Solomon, My son, as for me, it was in my mind to build an house unto the name of the LORD my God:

1Ch_22_08

1Ch_22_08 But the word of the LORD came to me, saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast made great wars: thou shalt not build an house unto my name, because thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in my sight.

1Ch_22_09

1Ch_22_09 Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about: for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness unto Israel in his days.

1Ch_22_10

1Ch_22_10 He shall build an house for my name; and he shall be my son, and I [will be] his father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.

1Ch_22_11

1Ch_22_11 Now, my son, the LORD be with thee; and prosper thou, and build the house of the LORD thy God, as he hath said of thee.

1Ch_22_12

1Ch_22_12 Only the LORD give thee wisdom and understanding, and give thee charge concerning Israel, that thou mayest keep the law of the LORD thy God.

1Ch_22_13

1Ch_22_13 Then shalt thou prosper, if thou takest heed to fulfil the statutes and judgments which the LORD charged Moses with concerning Israel: be strong, and of good courage; dread not, nor be dismayed.

1Ch_22_14

1Ch_22_14 Now, behold, in my trouble I have prepared for the house of the LORD an hundred thousand talents of gold, and a thousand thousand talents of silver; and of brass and iron without weight; for it is in abundance: timber also and stone have I prepared; and thou mayest add thereto.

1Ch_22_15

1Ch_22_15 Moreover [there are] workmen with thee in abundance, hewers and workers of stone and timber, and all manner of cunning men for every manner of work.

1Ch_22_16

1Ch_22_16 Of the gold, the silver, and the brass, and the iron, [there is] no number. Arise [therefore], and be doing, and the LORD be with thee.

1Ch_22_17

1Ch_22_17 David also commanded all the princes of Israel to help Solomon his son, [saying],

1Ch_22_18

1Ch_22_18 [Is] not the LORD your God with you? and hath he [not] given you rest on every side? for he hath given the inhabitants of the land into mine hand; and the land is subdued before the LORD, and before his people.

1Ch_22_19

1Ch_22_19 Now set your heart and your soul to seek the LORD your God; arise therefore, and build ye the sanctuary of the LORD God, to bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built to the name of the LORD.

1Ch_23_01

1Ch_23_01 So when David was old and full of days, he made Solomon his son king over Israel.

1Ch_23_02

1Ch_23_02 And he gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.

1Ch_23_03

1Ch_23_03 Now the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years and upward: and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty and eight thousand.

1Ch_23_04

1Ch_23_04 Of which, twenty and four thousand [were] to set forward the work of the house of the LORD; and six thousand [were] officers and judges:

1Ch_23_05

1Ch_23_05 Moreover four thousand [were] porters; and four thousand praised the LORD with the instruments which I made, [said David], to praise [therewith].

1Ch_23_06

1Ch_23_06 And David divided them into courses among the sons of Levi, [namely], Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

1Ch_23_07

1Ch_23_07 Of the Gershonites [were], Laadan, and Shimei.

1Ch_23_08

1Ch_23_08 The sons of Laadan; the chief [was] Jehiel, and Zetham, and Joel, three.

1Ch_23_09

1Ch_23_09 The sons of Shimei; Shelomith, and Haziel, and Haran, three. These [were] the chief of the fathers of Laadan.

1Ch_23_10

1Ch_23_10 And the sons of Shimei [were], Jahath, Zina, and Jeush, and Beriah. These four [were] the sons of Shimei.

1Ch_23_11

1Ch_23_11 And Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second: but Jeush and Beriah had not many sons; therefore they were in one reckoning, according to [their] father's house.

1Ch_23_12

1Ch_23_12 The sons of Kohath; Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.

1Ch_23_13

1Ch_23_13 The sons of Amram; Aaron and Moses: and Aaron was separated, that he should sanctify the most holy things, he and his sons for ever, to burn incense before the LORD, to minister unto him, and to bless in his name for ever.

1Ch_23_14

1Ch_23_14 Now [concerning] Moses the man of God, his sons were named of the tribe of Levi.

1Ch_23_15

1Ch_23_15 The sons of Moses [were], Gershom, and Eliezer.

1Ch_23_16

1Ch_23_16 Of the sons of Gershom, Shebuel [was] the chief.

1Ch_23_17

1Ch_23_17 And the sons of Eliezer [were], Rehabiah the chief. And Eliezer had none other sons; but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.

1Ch_23_18

1Ch_23_18 Of the sons of Izhar; Shelomith the chief.

1Ch_23_19

1Ch_23_19 Of the sons of Hebron; Jeriah the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.

1Ch_23_20

1Ch_23_20 Of the sons of Uzziel; Micah the first, and Jesiah the second.

1Ch_23_21

1Ch_23_21 The sons of Merari; Mahli, and Mushi. The sons of Mahli; Eleazar, and Kish.

1Ch_23_22

1Ch_23_22 And Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters: and their brethren the sons of Kish took them.

1Ch_23_23

1Ch_23_23 The sons of Mushi; Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.

1Ch_23_24

1Ch_23_24 These [were] the sons of Levi after the house of their fathers; [even] the chief of the fathers, as they were counted by number of names by their polls, that did the work for the service of the house of the LORD, from the age of twenty years and upward.

1Ch_23_25

1Ch_23_25 For David said, The LORD God of Israel hath given rest unto his people, that they may dwell in Jerusalem for ever:

1Ch_23_26

1Ch_23_26 And also unto the Levites; they shall no [more] carry the tabernacle, nor any vessels of it for the service thereof.

1Ch_23_27

1Ch_23_27 For by the last words of David the Levites [were] numbered from twenty years old and above:

1Ch_23_28

1Ch_23_28 Because their office [was] to wait on the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of the LORD, in the courts, and in the chambers, and in the purifying of all holy things, and the work of the service of the house of God;

1Ch_23_29

1Ch_23_29 Both for the showbread, and for the fine flour for meat offering, and for the unleavened cakes, and for [that which is baked in] the pan, and for that which is fried, and for all manner of measure and size;

1Ch_23_30

1Ch_23_30 And to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise at even;

1Ch_23_31

1Ch_23_31 And to offer all burnt sacrifices unto the LORD in the sabbaths, in the new moons, and on the set feasts, by number, according to the order commanded unto them, continually before the LORD:

1Ch_23_32

1Ch_23_32 And that they should keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the charge of the holy [place], and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brethren, in the service of the house of the LORD.

1Ch_24_01

1Ch_24_01 Now [these are] the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

1Ch_24_02

1Ch_24_02 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest's office.

1Ch_24_03

1Ch_24_03 And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their offices in their service.

1Ch_24_04

1Ch_24_04 And there were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar; and [thus] were they divided. Among the sons of Eleazar [there were] sixteen chief men of the house of [their] fathers, and eight among the sons of Ithamar according to the house of their fathers.

1Ch_24_05

1Ch_24_05 Thus were they divided by lot, one sort with another; for the governors of the sanctuary, and governors [of the house] of God, were of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.

1Ch_24_06

1Ch_24_06 And Shemaiah the son of Nethaneel the scribe, [one] of the Levites, wrote them before the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and [before] the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites: one principal household being taken for Eleazar, and [one] taken for Ithamar.

1Ch_24_07

1Ch_24_07 Now the first lot came forth to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah,

1Ch_24_08

1Ch_24_08 The third to Harim, the fourth to Seorim,

1Ch_24_09

1Ch_24_09 The fifth to Malchijah, the sixth to Mijamin,

1Ch_24_10

1Ch_24_10 The seventh to Hakkoz, the eighth to Abijah,

1Ch_24_11

1Ch_24_11 The ninth to Jeshuah, the tenth to Shecaniah,

1Ch_24_12

1Ch_24_12 The eleventh to Eliashib, the twelfth to Jakim,

1Ch_24_13

1Ch_27_23 But David took not the number of them from twenty years old and under: because the LORD had said he would increase Israel like to the stars of the heavens.

1Ch_27_24

1Ch_27_24 Joab the son of Zeruiah began to number, but he finished not, because there fell wrath for it against Israel; neither was the number put in the account of the chronicles of king David.

1Ch_28_02

1Ch_28_02 Then David the king stood up upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people: [As for me], I [had] in mine heart to build an house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and for the footstool of our God, and had made ready for the building:

1Ch_28_03

1Ch_28_03 But God said unto me, Thou shalt not build an house for my name, because thou [hast been] a man of war, and hast shed blood.

1Ch_28_04

1Ch_28_04 Howbeit the LORD God of Israel chose me before all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever: for he hath chosen Judah [to be] the ruler; and of the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he liked me to make [me] king over all Israel:

1Ch_28_05

1Ch_28_05 And of all my sons, (for the LORD hath given me many sons,) he hath chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.

1Ch_28_06

1Ch_28_06 And he said unto me, Solomon thy son, he shall build my house and my courts: for I have chosen him [to be] my son, and I will be his father.

1Ch_28_07

1Ch_28_07 Moreover I will establish his kingdom for ever, if he be constant to do my commandments and my judgments, as at this day.

1Ch_28_08

1Ch_28_08 Now therefore in the sight of all Israel the congregation of the LORD, and in the audience of our God, keep and seek for all the commandments of the LORD your God: that ye may possess this good land, and leave [it] for an inheritance for your children after you for ever.

1Ch_28_09

1Ch_28_09 And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind: for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.

1Ch_28_10

1Ch_28_10 Take heed now; for the LORD hath chosen thee to build an house for the sanctuary: be strong, and do [it].

1Ch_28_11

1Ch_28_11 Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch, and of the houses thereof, and of the treasuries thereof, and of the upper chambers thereof, and of the inner parlours thereof, and of the place of the mercy seat,

1Ch_28_12

1Ch_28_12 And the pattern of all that he had by the spirit, of the courts of the house of the LORD, and of all the chambers round about, of the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries of the dedicated things:

1Ch_28_13

1Ch_28_13 Also for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and for all the vessels of service in the house of the LORD.

1Ch_28_14

1Ch_28_14 [He gave] of gold by weight for [things] of gold, for all instruments of all manner of service; [silver also] for all instruments of silver by weight, for all instruments of every kind of service:

1Ch_28_15

1Ch_28_15 Even the weight for the candlesticks of gold, and for their lamps of gold, by weight for every candlestick, and for the lamps thereof: and for the candlesticks of silver by weight, [both] for the candlestick, and [also] for the lamps thereof, according to the use of every candlestick.

1Ch_28_16

1Ch_28_16 And by weight [he gave] gold for the tables of showbread, for every table; and [likewise] silver for the tables of silver:

1Ch_28_17

1Ch_28_17 Also pure gold for the fleshhooks, and the bowls, and the cups: and for the golden basins [he gave gold] by weight for every basin; and [likewise silver] by weight for every basin of silver:

1Ch_28_18

1Ch_28_18 And for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot of the cherubims, that spread out [their wings], and covered the ark of the covenant of the LORD.

1Ch_28_19

1Ch_28_19 All [this, said David], the LORD made me understand in writing by [his] hand upon me, [even] all the works of this pattern.

1Ch_28_20

1Ch_28_20 And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and of good courage, and do [it]: fear not, nor be dismayed: for the LORD God, [even] my God, [will be] with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee, until thou hast finished all the work for the service of the house of the LORD.

1Ch_28_21

1Ch_28_21 And, behold, the courses of the priests and the Levites, [even they shall be with thee] for all the service of the house of God: and [there shall be] with thee for all manner of workmanship every willing skilful man, for any manner of service: also the princes and all the people [will be] wholly at thy commandment.

1Ch_29_01

1Ch_29_01 Furthermore David the king said unto all the congregation, Solomon my son, whom alone God hath chosen, [is yet] young and tender, and the work [is] great: for the palace [is] not for man, but for the LORD God.

1Ch_29_02

1Ch_29_02 Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of my God the gold for [things to be made] of gold, and the silver for [things] of silver, and the brass for [things] of brass, the iron for [things] of iron, and wood for [things] of wood; onyx stones, and [stones] to be set, glistering stones, and of divers colours, and all manner of precious stones, and marble stones in abundance.

1Ch_29_03

1Ch_29_03 Moreover, because I have set my affection to the house of my God, I have of mine own proper good, of gold and silver, [which] I have given to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house,

1Ch_29_04

1Ch_29_04 [Even] three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, to overlay the walls of the houses [withal]:

1Ch_29_05

1Ch_29_05 The gold for [things] of gold, and the silver for [things] of silver, and for all manner of work [to be made] by the hands of artificers. And who [then] is willing to consecrate his service this day unto the LORD?

1Ch_29_06

1Ch_29_06 Then the chief of the fathers and princes of the tribes of Israel, and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, with the rulers of the king's work, offered willingly,

1Ch_29_07

1Ch_29_07 And gave for the service of the house of God of gold five thousand talents and ten thousand drams, and of silver ten thousand talents, and of brass eighteen thousand talents, and one hundred thousand talents of iron.

1Ch_29_08

1Ch_29_08 And they with whom [precious] stones were found gave [them] to the treasure of the house of the LORD, by the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.

1Ch_29_09

1Ch_29_09 Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to the LORD: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.

1Ch_29_10

1Ch_29_10 Wherefore David blessed the LORD before all the congregation: and David said, Blessed [be] thou, LORD God of Israel our father, for ever and ever.

1Ch_29_11

1Ch_29_11 Thine, O LORD, [is] the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all [that is] in the heaven and in the earth [is thine]; thine [is] the kingdom, O LORD, and thou art exalted as head above all.

1Ch_29_12

1Ch_29_12 Both riches and honour [come] of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand [is] power and might; and in thine hand [it is] to make great, and to give strength unto all.

1Ch_29_13

1Ch_29_13 Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name.

1Ch_29_14

1Ch_29_14 But who [am] I, and what [is] my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things [come] of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.

1Ch_29_15

1Ch_29_15 For we [are] strangers before thee, and sojourners, as [were] all our fathers: our days on the earth [are] as a shadow, and [there is] none abiding.

1Ch_29_16

1Ch_29_16 O LORD our God, all this store that we have prepared to build thee an house for thine holy name [cometh] of thine hand, and [is] all thine own.

1Ch_29_17

1Ch_29_17 I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart, and hast pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of mine heart I have willingly offered all these things: and now have I seen with joy thy people, which are present here, to offer willingly unto thee.

1Ch_29_18

1Ch_29_18 O LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this for ever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of thy people, and prepare their heart unto thee:

1Ch_29_19

1Ch_29_19 And give unto Solomon my son a perfect heart, to keep thy commandments, thy testimonies, and thy statutes, and to do all [these things], and to build the palace, [for] the which I have made provision.

1Ch_29_20

1Ch_29_20 And David said to all the congregation, Now bless the LORD your God. And all the congregation blessed the LORD God of their fathers, and bowed down their heads, and worshipped the LORD, and the king.

1Ch_29_21

1Ch_29_21 And they sacrificed sacrifices unto the LORD, and offered burnt offerings unto the LORD, on the morrow after that day, [even] a thousand bullocks, a thousand rams, [and] a thousand lambs, with their drink offerings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel:

1Ch_29_22

1Ch_29_22 And did eat and drink before the LORD on that day with great gladness. And they made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and anointed [him] unto the LORD [to be] the chief governor, and Zadok [to be] priest.

1Ch_29_23

1Ch_29_23 Then Solomon sat on the throne of the LORD as king instead of David his father, and prospered; and all Israel obeyed him.

1Ch_29_24

1Ch_29_24 And all the princes, and the mighty men, and all the sons likewise of king David, submitted themselves unto Solomon the king.

1Ch_29_25

1Ch_29_25 And the LORD magnified Solomon exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and bestowed upon him [such] royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel.

1Ch_29_26

1Ch_29_26 Thus David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.

1Ch_29_27

1Ch_29_27 And the time that he reigned over Israel [was] forty years; seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three [years] reigned he in Jerusalem.

1Ch_29_28

1Ch_29_28 And he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour: and Solomon his son reigned in his stead.

1Ch_29_29

1Ch_29_29 Now the acts of David the king, first and last, behold, they [are] written in the book of Samuel the seer, and in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the book of Gad the seer,

1Ch_29_30

1Ch_29_30 With all his reign and his might, and the times that went over him, and over Israel, and over all the kingdoms of the countries.

1Co_01_01

1Co_01_01 Paul, called [to be] an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes [our] brother,

1Co_01_02

1Co_01_02 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called [to be] saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

1Co_01_03

1Co_01_03 Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ.

1Co_01_04

1Co_01_04 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

1Co_01_05

1Co_01_05 That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and [in] all knowledge;

1Co_01_06

1Co_01_06 Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:

1Co_01_07

1Co_01_07 So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:

1Co_01_08

1Co_01_08 Who shall also confirm you unto the end, [that ye may be] blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

1Co_01_09

1Co_01_09 God [is] faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

1Co_01_10

1Co_01_10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and [that] there be no divisions among you; but [ that] ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

1Co_01_11

1Co_01_11 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them [which are of the house] of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

1Co_01_12

1Co_01_12 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.

1Co_01_13

1Co_01_13 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?

1Co_01_14

1Co_01_14 I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;

1Co_01_15

1Co_01_15 Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name.

1Co_01_16

1Co_01_16 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.

1Co_01_17

1Co_01_17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.

1Co_01_18

1Co_01_18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

1Co_01_19

1Co_01_19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

1Co_01_20

1Co_01_20 Where [is] the wise? where [is] the scribe? where [is] the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

1Co_01_21

1Co_01_21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

1Co_01_22

1Co_01_22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:

1Co_01_23

1Co_01_23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;

1Co_01_24

1Co_01_24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

1Co_01_25

1Co_01_25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

1Co_01_26

1Co_01_26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, [are called] :

1Co_01_27

1Co_01_27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

1Co_01_28

1Co_01_28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, [yea] , and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

1Co_01_29

1Co_01_29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.

1Co_01_30

1Co_01_30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

1Co_01_31

1Co_01_31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

1Co_02_01

1Co_02_01 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.

1Co_02_02

1Co_02_02 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

1Co_02_03

1Co_02_03 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.

1Co_02_04

1Co_02_04 And my speech and my preaching [was] not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:

1Co_02_05

1Co_02_05 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

1Co_02_06

1Co_02_06 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:

1Co_02_07

1Co_02_07 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, [even] the hidden [wisdom] , which God ordained before the world unto our glory:

1Co_02_08

1Co_02_08 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known [it] , they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

1Co_02_09

1Co_02_09 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

1Co_02_10

1Co_02_10 But God hath revealed [them] unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

1Co_02_11

1Co_02_11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

1Co_02_12

1Co_02_12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

1Co_02_13

1Co_02_13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

1Co_02_14

1Co_02_14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them] , because they are spiritually discerned.

1Co_02_15

1Co_02_15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.

1Co_02_16

1Co_02_16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

1Co_03_01

1Co_03_01 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, [even] as unto babes in Christ.

1Co_03_02

1Co_03_02 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able [to bear it] , neither yet now are ye able.

1Co_03_03

1Co_03_03 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas [there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

1Co_03_04

1Co_03_04 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I [am] of Apollos; are ye not carnal?

1Co_03_05

1Co_03_05 Who then is Paul, and who [is] Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

1Co_03_06

1Co_03_06 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.

1Co_03_07

1Co_03_07 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

1Co_03_08

1Co_03_08 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

1Co_03_09

1Co_03_09 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, [ye are] God's building.

1Co_03_10

1Co_03_10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

1Co_03_11

1Co_03_11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

1Co_03_12

1Co_03_12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

1Co_03_13

1Co_03_13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.

1Co_03_14

1Co_03_14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.

1Co_03_15

1Co_03_15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

1Co_03_16

1Co_03_16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

1Co_03_17

1Co_03_17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which [temple] ye are.

1Co_03_18

1Co_03_18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.

1Co_03_19

1Co_03_19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.

1Co_03_20

1Co_03_20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.

1Co_03_21

1Co_03_21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;

1Co_03_22

1Co_03_22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;

1Co_03_23

1Co_03_23 And ye are Christ's; and Christ [is] God's.

1Co_04_01

1Co_04_01 Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

1Co_04_02

1Co_04_02 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.

1Co_04_03

1Co_04_03 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.

1Co_04_04

1Co_04_04 For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.

1Co_04_05

1Co_04_05 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.

1Co_04_06

1Co_04_06 And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and [ to] Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think [of men] above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.

1Co_04_07

1Co_04_07 For who maketh thee to differ [from another] ? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive [it] , why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received [it] ?

1Co_04_08

1Co_04_08 Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye have reigned as kings without us: and I would to God ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.

1Co_04_09

1Co_04_09 For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and to men.

1Co_04_10

1Co_04_10 We [are] fools for Christ's sake, but ye [are] wise in Christ; we [ are] weak, but ye [are] strong; ye [are] honourable, but we [are] despised.

1Co_04_11

1Co_04_11 Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace;

1Co_04_12

1Co_04_12 And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it:

1Co_04_13

1Co_04_13 Being defamed, we entreat: we are made as the filth of the world, [and are] the offscouring of all things unto this day.

1Co_04_14

1Co_04_14 I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn [ you] .

1Co_04_15

1Co_04_15 For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet [have ye] not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.

1Co_04_16

1Co_04_16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.

1Co_04_17

1Co_04_17 For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.

1Co_04_18

1Co_04_18 Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.

1Co_04_19

1Co_04_19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.

1Co_04_20

1Co_04_20 For the kingdom of God [is] not in word, but in power.

1Co_04_21

1Co_04_21 What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and [in] the spirit of meekness?

1Co_05_01

1Co_05_01 It is reported commonly [that there is] fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.

1Co_05_02

1Co_05_02 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.

1Co_05_03

1Co_05_03 For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, [concerning] him that hath so done this deed,

1Co_05_04

1Co_05_04 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

1Co_05_05

1Co_05_05 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

1Co_05_06

1Co_05_06 Your glorying [is] not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?

1Co_05_07

1Co_05_07 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

1Co_05_08

1Co_05_08 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened [bread] of sincerity and truth.

1Co_05_09

1Co_05_09 I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:

1Co_05_10

1Co_05_10 Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.

1Co_05_11

1Co_05_11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

1Co_05_12

1Co_05_12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?

1Co_05_13

1Co_05_13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

1Co_06_01

1Co_06_01 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?

1Co_06_02

1Co_06_02 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

1Co_06_03

1Co_06_03 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?

1Co_06_04

1Co_06_04 If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.

1Co_06_05

1Co_06_05 I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?

1Co_06_06

1Co_06_06 But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.

1Co_06_07

1Co_06_07 Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather [suffer yourselves to] be defrauded?

1Co_06_08

1Co_06_08 Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that [your] brethren.

1Co_06_09

1Co_06_09 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

1Co_06_10

1Co_06_10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

1Co_06_11

1Co_06_11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

1Co_06_12

1Co_06_12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

1Co_06_13

1Co_06_13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body [is] not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

1Co_06_14

1Co_06_14 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.

1Co_06_15

1Co_06_15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make [them] the members of an harlot? God forbid.

1Co_06_16

1Co_06_16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

1Co_06_17

1Co_06_17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

1Co_06_18

1Co_06_18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

1Co_06_19

1Co_06_19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost [which is] in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

1Co_06_20

1Co_06_20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

1Co_07_01

1Co_07_01 Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: [It is] good for a man not to touch a woman.

1Co_07_02

1Co_07_02 Nevertheless, [to avoid] fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

1Co_07_03

1Co_07_03 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.

1Co_07_04

1Co_07_04 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.

1Co_07_05

1Co_07_05 Defraud ye not one the other, except [it be] with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.

1Co_07_06

1Co_07_06 But I speak this by permission, [and] not of commandment.

1Co_07_07

1Co_07_07 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.

1Co_07_08

1Co_07_08 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.

1Co_07_09

1Co_07_09 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.

1Co_07_10

1Co_07_10 And unto the married I command, [yet] not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from [her] husband:

1Co_07_11

1Co_07_11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to [ her] husband: and let not the husband put away [his] wife.

1Co_07_12

1Co_07_12 But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.

1Co_07_13

1Co_07_13 And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.

1Co_07_14

1Co_07_14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.

1Co_07_15

1Co_07_15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such [cases] : but God hath called us to peace.

1Co_07_16

1Co_07_16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save [thy] husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save [thy] wife?

1Co_07_17

1Co_07_17 But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches.

1Co_07_18

1Co_07_18 Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.

1Co_07_19

1Co_07_19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.

1Co_07_20

1Co_07_20 Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.

1Co_07_21

1Co_07_21 Art thou called [being] a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use [it] rather.

1Co_07_22

1Co_07_22 For he that is called in the Lord, [being] a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, [being] free, is Christ's servant.

1Co_07_23

1Co_07_23 Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.

1Co_07_24

1Co_07_24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.

1Co_07_25

1Co_07_25 Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.

1Co_07_26

1Co_07_26 I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, [I say] , that [it is] good for a man so to be.

1Co_07_27

1Co_07_27 Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.

1Co_07_28

1Co_07_28 But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.

1Co_07_29

1Co_07_29 But this I say, brethren, the time [is] short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;

1Co_07_30

1Co_07_30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;

1Co_07_31

1Co_07_31 And they that use this world, as not abusing [it] : for the fashion of this world passeth away.

1Co_07_32

1Co_07_32 But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:

1Co_07_33

1Co_07_33 But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please [his] wife.

1Co_07_34

1Co_07_34 There is difference [also] between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please [her] husband.

1Co_07_35

1Co_07_35 And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.

1Co_07_36

1Co_07_36 But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of [her] age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.

1Co_07_37

1Co_07_37 Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.

1Co_07_38

1Co_07_38 So then he that giveth [her] in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth [ her] not in marriage doeth better.

1Co_07_39

1Co_07_39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.

1Co_07_40

1Co_07_40 But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.

1Co_08_01

1Co_08_01 Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.

1Co_08_02

1Co_08_02 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.

1Co_08_03

1Co_08_03 But if any man love God, the same is known of him.

1Co_08_04

1Co_08_04 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol [is] nothing in the world, and that [ there is] none other God but one.

1Co_08_05

1Co_08_05 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, ( as there be gods many, and lords many, )

1Co_08_06

1Co_08_06 But to us [there is but] one God, the Father, of whom [are] all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom [are] all things, and we by him.

1Co_08_07

1Co_08_07 Howbeit [there is] not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat [it] as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.

1Co_08_08

1Co_08_08 But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.

1Co_08_09

1Co_08_09 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak.

1Co_08_10

1Co_08_10 For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;

1Co_08_11

1Co_08_11 And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?

1Co_08_12

1Co_08_12 But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.

1Co_08_13

1Co_08_13 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.

1Co_09_01

1Co_09_01 Am I not an apostle? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are not ye my work in the Lord?

1Co_09_02

1Co_09_02 If I be not an apostle unto others, yet doubtless I am to you: for the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord.

1Co_09_03

1Co_09_03 Mine answer to them that do examine me is this,

1Co_09_04

1Co_09_04 Have we not power to eat and to drink?

1Co_09_05

1Co_09_05 Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and [as] the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?

1Co_09_06

1Co_09_06 Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear working?

1Co_09_07

1Co_09_07 Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?

1Co_09_08

1Co_09_08 Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also?

1Co_09_09

1Co_09_09 For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?

1Co_09_10

1Co_09_10 Or saith he [it] altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, [ this] is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.

1Co_09_11

1Co_09_11 If we have sown unto you spiritual things, [is it] a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?

1Co_09_12

1Co_09_12 If others be partakers of [this] power over you, [are] not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.

1Co_09_13

1Co_09_13 Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live [of the things] of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar?

1Co_09_14

1Co_09_14 Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.

1Co_09_15

1Co_09_15 But I have used none of these things: neither have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for [it were] better for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.

1Co_09_16

1Co_09_16 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!

1Co_09_17

1Co_09_17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation [of the gospel] is committed unto me.

1Co_09_18

1Co_09_18 What is my reward then? [Verily] that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.

1Co_09_19

1Co_09_19 For though I be free from all [men] , yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.

1Co_09_20

1Co_09_20 And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;

1Co_09_21

1Co_09_21 To them that are without law, as without law, ( being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ, ) that I might gain them that are without law.

1Co_09_22

1Co_09_22 To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all [men] , that I might by all means save some.

1Co_09_23

1Co_09_23 And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with [you] .

1Co_09_24

1Co_09_24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.

1Co_09_25

1Co_09_25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they [do it] to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.

1Co_09_26

1Co_09_26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:

1Co_09_27

1Co_09_27 But I keep under my body, and bring [it] into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

1Co_10_01

1Co_10_01 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;

1Co_10_02

1Co_10_02 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

1Co_10_03

1Co_10_03 And did all eat the same spiritual meat;

1Co_10_04

1Co_10_04 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

1Co_10_05

1Co_10_05 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

1Co_10_06

1Co_10_06 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

1Co_10_07

1Co_10_07 Neither be ye idolaters, as [were] some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

1Co_10_08

1Co_10_08 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

1Co_10_09

1Co_10_09 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.

1Co_10_10

1Co_10_10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.

1Co_10_11

1Co_10_11 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

1Co_10_12

1Co_10_12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.

1Co_10_13

1Co_10_13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God [is] faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear [it] .

1Co_10_14

1Co_10_14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.

1Co_10_15

1Co_10_15 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.

1Co_10_16

1Co_10_16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

1Co_10_17

1Co_10_17 For we [being] many are one bread, [and] one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.

1Co_10_18

1Co_10_18 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?

1Co_10_19

1Co_10_19 What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?

1Co_10_20

1Co_10_20 But I [say] , that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.

1Co_10_21

1Co_10_21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.

1Co_10_22

1Co_10_22 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?

1Co_10_23

1Co_10_23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.

1Co_10_24

1Co_10_24 Let no man seek his own, but every man another's [wealth] .

1Co_10_25

1Co_10_25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, [that] eat, asking no question for conscience sake:

1Co_10_26

1Co_10_26 For the earth [is] the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.

1Co_10_27

1Co_10_27 If any of them that believe not bid you [to a feast] , and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake.

1Co_10_28

1Co_10_28 But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that showed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth [is] the Lord's, and the fulness thereof:

1Co_10_29

1Co_10_29 Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another [man's] conscience?

1Co_10_30

1Co_10_30 For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?

1Co_10_31

1Co_10_31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.

1Co_10_32

1Co_10_32 Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God:

1Co_10_33

1Co_10_33 Even as I please all [men] in all [things] , not seeking mine own profit, but the [profit] of many, that they may be saved.

1Co_11_01

1Co_11_01 Be ye followers of me, even as I also [am] of Christ.

1Co_11_02

1Co_11_02 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered [them] to you.

1Co_11_03

1Co_11_03 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman [is] the man; and the head of Christ [is] God.

1Co_11_04

1Co_11_04 Every man praying or prophesying, having [his] head covered, dishonoureth his head.

1Co_11_05

1Co_11_05 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with [her] head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.

1Co_11_06

1Co_11_06 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.

1Co_11_07

1Co_11_07 For a man indeed ought not to cover [his] head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.

1Co_11_08

1Co_11_08 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.

1Co_11_09

1Co_11_09 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.

1Co_11_10

1Co_11_10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on [her] head because of the angels.

1Co_11_11

1Co_11_11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.

1Co_11_12

1Co_11_12 For as the woman [is] of the man, even so [is] the man also by the woman; but all things of God.

1Co_11_13

1Co_11_13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?

1Co_11_14

1Co_11_14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

1Co_11_15

1Co_11_15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for [her] hair is given her for a covering.

1Co_11_16

1Co_11_16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

1Co_11_17

1Co_11_17 Now in this that I declare [unto you] I praise [you] not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.

1Co_11_18

1Co_11_18 For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.

1Co_11_19

1Co_11_19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.

1Co_11_20

1Co_11_20 When ye come together therefore into one place, [this] is not to eat the Lord's supper.

1Co_11_21

1Co_11_21 For in eating every one taketh before [other] his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.

1Co_11_22

1Co_11_22 What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise [you] not.

1Co_11_23

1Co_11_23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the [same] night in which he was betrayed took bread:

1Co_11_24

1Co_11_24 And when he had given thanks, he brake [it] , and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.

1Co_11_25

1Co_11_25 After the same manner also [he took] the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink [ it] , in remembrance of me.

1Co_11_26

1Co_11_26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do show the Lord's death till he come.

1Co_11_27

1Co_11_27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink [this] cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

1Co_11_28

1Co_11_28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of [that] bread, and drink of [that] cup.

1Co_11_29

1Co_11_29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

1Co_11_30

1Co_11_30 For this cause many [are] weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

1Co_11_31

1Co_11_31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

1Co_11_32

1Co_11_32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

1Co_11_33

1Co_11_33 Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.

1Co_11_34

1Co_11_34 And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.

1Co_12_01

1Co_12_01 Now concerning spiritual [gifts] , brethren, I would not have you ignorant.

1Co_12_02

1Co_12_02 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.

1Co_12_03

1Co_12_03 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and [that] no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

1Co_12_04

1Co_12_04 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

1Co_12_05

1Co_12_05 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.

1Co_12_06

1Co_12_06 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.

1Co_12_07

1Co_12_07 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.

1Co_12_08

1Co_12_08 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

1Co_12_09

1Co_12_09 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

1Co_12_10

1Co_12_10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another [divers] kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:

1Co_12_11

1Co_12_11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

1Co_12_12

1Co_12_12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also [is] Christ.

1Co_12_13

1Co_12_13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether [we be] Jews or Gentiles, whether [we be] bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

1Co_12_14

1Co_12_14 For the body is not one member, but many.

1Co_12_15

1Co_12_15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

1Co_12_16

1Co_12_16 And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

1Co_12_17

1Co_12_17 If the whole body [were] an eye, where [were] the hearing? If the whole [were] hearing, where [were] the smelling?

1Co_12_18

1Co_12_18 But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.

1Co_12_19

1Co_12_19 And if they were all one member, where [were] the body?

1Co_12_20

1Co_12_20 But now [are they] many members, yet but one body.

1Co_12_21

1Co_12_21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.

1Co_12_22

1Co_12_22 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:

1Co_12_23

1Co_12_23 And those [members] of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely [parts] have more abundant comeliness.

1Co_12_24

1Co_12_24 For our comely [parts] have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that [part] which lacked:

1Co_12_25

1Co_12_25 That there should be no schism in the body; but [that] the members should have the same care one for another.

1Co_12_26

1Co_12_26 And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.

1Co_12_27

1Co_12_27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

1Co_12_28

1Co_12_28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

1Co_12_29

1Co_12_29 [Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all workers of miracles?

1Co_12_30

1Co_12_30 Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?

1Co_12_31

1Co_12_31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet show I unto you a more excellent way.

1Co_13_01

1Co_13_01 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become [as] sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

1Co_13_02

1Co_13_02 And though I have [the gift of] prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

1Co_13_03

1Co_13_03 And though I bestow all my goods to feed [the poor] , and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

1Co_13_04

1Co_13_04 Charity suffereth long, [and] is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

1Co_13_05

1Co_13_05 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

1Co_13_06

1Co_13_06 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

1Co_13_07

1Co_13_07 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

1Co_13_08

1Co_13_08 Charity never faileth: but whether [there be] prophecies, they shall fail; whether [there be] tongues, they shall cease; whether [there be] knowledge, it shall vanish away.

1Co_13_09

1Co_13_09 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

1Co_13_10

1Co_13_10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

1Co_13_11

1Co_13_11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

1Co_13_12

1Co_13_12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

1Co_13_13

1Co_13_13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these [is] charity.

1Co_14_01

1Co_14_01 Follow after charity, and desire spiritual [gifts] , but rather that ye may prophesy.

1Co_14_02

1Co_14_02 For he that speaketh in an [unknown] tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth [him] ; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.

1Co_14_03

1Co_14_03 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men [to] edification, and exhortation, and comfort.

1Co_14_04

1Co_14_04 He that speaketh in an [unknown] tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.

1Co_14_05

1Co_14_05 I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater [is] he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.

1Co_14_06

1Co_14_06 Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine?

1Co_14_07

1Co_14_07 And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?

1Co_14_08

1Co_14_08 For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?

1Co_14_09

1Co_14_09 So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye shall speak into the air.

1Co_14_10

1Co_14_10 There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them [is] without signification.

1Co_14_11

1Co_14_11 Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh [shall be] a barbarian unto me.

1Co_14_12

1Co_14_12 Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual [gifts] , seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.

1Co_14_13

1Co_14_13 Wherefore let him that speaketh in an [unknown] tongue pray that he may interpret.

1Co_14_14

1Co_14_14 For if I pray in an [unknown] tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.

1Co_14_15

1Co_14_15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.

1Co_14_16

1Co_14_16 Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest?

1Co_14_17

1Co_14_17 For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.

1Co_14_18

1Co_14_18 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:

1Co_14_19

1Co_14_19 Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that [by my voice] I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an [ unknown] tongue.

1Co_14_20

1Co_14_20 Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.

1Co_14_21

1Co_14_21 In the law it is written, With [men of] other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord.

1Co_14_22

1Co_14_22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying [serveth] not for them that believe not, but for them which believe.

1Co_14_23

1Co_14_23 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in [those that are] unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?

1Co_14_24

1Co_14_24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or [ one] unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all:

1Co_14_25

1Co_14_25 And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on [his] face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.

1Co_14_26

1Co_14_26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.

1Co_14_27

1Co_14_27 If any man speak in an [unknown] tongue, [let it be] by two, or at the most [by] three, and [that] by course; and let one interpret.

1Co_14_28

1Co_14_28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.

1Co_14_29

1Co_14_29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.

1Co_14_30

1Co_14_30 If [any thing] be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.

1Co_14_31

1Co_14_31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.

1Co_14_32

1Co_14_32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.

1Co_14_33

1Co_14_33 For God is not [the author] of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

1Co_14_34

1Co_14_34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but [they are commanded] to be under obedience, as also saith the law.

1Co_14_35

1Co_14_35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

1Co_14_36

1Co_14_36 What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?

1Co_14_37

1Co_14_37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.

1Co_14_38

1Co_14_38 But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.

1Co_14_39

1Co_14_39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.

1Co_14_40

1Co_14_40 Let all things be done decently and in order.

1Co_15_01

1Co_15_01 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

1Co_15_02

1Co_15_02 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

1Co_15_03

1Co_15_03 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

1Co_15_04

1Co_15_04 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

1Co_15_05

1Co_15_05 And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:

1Co_15_06

1Co_15_06 After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.

1Co_15_07

1Co_15_07 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.

1Co_15_08

1Co_15_08 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.

1Co_15_09

1Co_15_09 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

1Co_15_10

1Co_15_10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which [was bestowed] upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

1Co_15_11

1Co_15_11 Therefore whether [it were] I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.

1Co_15_12

1Co_15_12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?

1Co_15_13

1Co_15_13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:

1Co_15_14

1Co_15_14 And if Christ be not risen, then [is] our preaching vain, and your faith [is] also vain.

1Co_15_15

1Co_15_15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.

1Co_15_16

1Co_15_16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:

1Co_15_17

1Co_15_17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith [is] vain; ye are yet in your sins.

1Co_15_18

1Co_15_18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.

1Co_15_19

1Co_15_19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

1Co_15_20

1Co_15_20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, [and] become the firstfruits of them that slept.

1Co_15_21

1Co_15_21 For since by man [came] death, by man [came] also the resurrection of the dead.

1Co_15_22

1Co_15_22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

1Co_15_23

1Co_15_23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.

1Co_15_24

1Co_15_24 Then [cometh] the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

1Co_15_25

1Co_15_25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.

1Co_15_26

1Co_15_26 The last enemy [that] shall be destroyed [is] death.

1Co_15_27

1Co_15_27 For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under [him, it is] manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.

1Co_15_28

1Co_15_28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

1Co_15_29

1Co_15_29 Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?

1Co_15_30

1Co_15_30 And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?

1Co_15_31

1Co_15_31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.

1Co_15_32

1Co_15_32 If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die.

1Co_15_33

1Co_15_33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.

1Co_15_34

1Co_15_34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak [this] to your shame.

1Co_15_35

1Co_15_35 But some [man] will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?

1Co_15_36

1Co_15_36 [Thou] fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:

1Co_15_37

1Co_15_37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other [grain] :

1Co_15_38

1Co_15_38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.

1Co_15_39

1Co_15_39 All flesh [is] not the same flesh: but [there is] one [kind of] flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, [and] another of birds.

1Co_15_40

1Co_15_40 [There are] also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial [is] one, and the [glory] of the terrestrial [is] another.

1Co_15_41

1Co_15_41 [There is] one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for [one] star differeth from [another] star in glory.

1Co_15_42

1Co_15_42 So also [is] the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:

1Co_15_43

1Co_15_43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:

1Co_15_44

1Co_15_44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.

1Co_15_45

1Co_15_45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam [was made] a quickening spirit.

1Co_15_46

1Co_15_46 Howbeit that [was] not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.

1Co_15_47

1Co_15_47 The first man [is] of the earth, earthy: the second man [is] the Lord from heaven.

1Co_15_48

1Co_15_48 As [is] the earthy, such [are] they also that are earthy: and as [ is] the heavenly, such [are] they also that are heavenly.

1Co_15_49

1Co_15_49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

1Co_15_50

1Co_15_50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

1Co_15_51

1Co_15_51 Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

1Co_15_52

1Co_15_52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

1Co_15_53

1Co_15_53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal [must] put on immortality.

1Co_15_54

1Co_15_54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

1Co_15_55

1Co_15_55 O death, where [is] thy sting? O grave, where [is] thy victory?

1Co_15_56

1Co_15_56 The sting of death [is] sin; and the strength of sin [is] the law.

1Co_15_57

1Co_15_57 But thanks [be] to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

1Co_15_58

1Co_15_58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

1Co_16_01

1Co_16_01 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.

1Co_16_02

1Co_16_02 Upon the first [day] of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as [God] hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.

1Co_16_03

1Co_16_03 And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by [your] letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.

1Co_16_04

1Co_16_04 And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.

1Co_16_05

1Co_16_05 Now I will come unto you, when I shall pass through Macedonia: for I do pass through Macedonia.

1Co_16_06

1Co_16_06 And it may be that I will abide, yea, and winter with you, that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go.

1Co_16_07

1Co_16_07 For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit.

1Co_16_08

1Co_16_08 But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost.

1Co_16_09

1Co_16_09 For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and [there are] many adversaries.

1Co_16_10

1Co_16_10 Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also [do] .

1Co_16_11

1Co_16_11 Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct him forth in peace, that he may come unto me: for I look for him with the brethren.

1Co_16_12

1Co_16_12 As touching [our] brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come at this time; but he will come when he shall have convenient time.

1Co_16_13

1Co_16_13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.

1Co_16_14

1Co_16_14 Let all your things be done with charity.

1Co_16_15

1Co_16_15 I beseech you, brethren, ( ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and [that] they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints, )

1Co_16_16

1Co_16_16 That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with [ us] , and laboureth.

1Co_16_17

1Co_16_17 I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they have supplied.

1Co_16_18

1Co_16_18 For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.

1Co_16_19

1Co_16_19 The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house.

1Co_16_20

1Co_16_20 All the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with an holy kiss.

1Co_16_21

1Co_16_21 The salutation of [me] Paul with mine own hand.

1Co_16_22

1Co_16_22 If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha.

1Co_16_23

1Co_16_23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you.

1Co_16_24

1Co_16_24 My love [be] with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

1Jo_01_01

1Jo_01_01 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;

1Jo_01_02

1Jo_01_02 ( For the life was manifested, and we have seen [it] , and bear witness, and show unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us; )

1Jo_01_03

1Jo_01_03 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

1Jo_01_04

1Jo_01_04 And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.

1Jo_01_05

1Jo_01_05 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

1Jo_01_06

1Jo_01_06 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:

1Jo_01_07

1Jo_01_07 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

1Jo_01_08

1Jo_01_08 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

1Jo_01_09

1Jo_01_09 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

1Jo_01_10

1Jo_01_10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

1Jo_02_01

1Jo_02_01 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:

1Jo_02_02

1Jo_02_02 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for [the sins of] the whole world.

1Jo_02_03

1Jo_02_03 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.

1Jo_02_04

1Jo_02_04 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

1Jo_02_05

1Jo_02_05 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.

1Jo_02_06

1Jo_02_06 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.

1Jo_02_07

1Jo_02_07 Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning.

1Jo_02_08

1Jo_02_08 Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth.

1Jo_02_09

1Jo_02_09 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.

1Jo_02_10

1Jo_02_10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.

1Jo_02_11

1Jo_02_11 But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.

1Jo_02_12

1Jo_02_12 I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.

1Jo_02_13

1Jo_02_13 I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him [that is] from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father.

1Jo_02_14

1Jo_02_14 I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him [that is] from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.

1Jo_02_15

1Jo_02_15 Love not the world, neither the things [that are] in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

1Jo_02_16

1Jo_02_16 For all that [is] in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

1Jo_02_17

1Jo_02_17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

1Jo_02_18

1Jo_02_18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.

1Jo_02_19

1Jo_02_19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would [no doubt] have continued with us: but [they went out] , that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

1Jo_02_20

1Jo_02_20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.

1Jo_02_21

1Jo_02_21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.

1Jo_02_22

1Jo_02_22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

1Jo_02_23

1Jo_02_23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [@but@ he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also] .

1Jo_02_24

1Jo_02_24 Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.

1Jo_02_25

1Jo_02_25 And this is the promise that he hath promised us, [even] eternal life.

1Jo_02_26

1Jo_02_26 These [things] have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you.

1Jo_02_27

1Jo_02_27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

1Jo_02_28

1Jo_02_28 And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

1Jo_02_29

1Jo_02_29 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him.

1Jo_03_01

1Jo_03_01 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

1Jo_03_02

1Jo_03_02 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

1Jo_03_03

1Jo_03_03 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

1Jo_03_04

1Jo_03_04 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.

1Jo_03_05

1Jo_03_05 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.

1Jo_03_06

1Jo_03_06 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.

1Jo_03_07

1Jo_03_07 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

1Jo_03_08

1Jo_03_08 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

1Jo_03_09

1Jo_03_09 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

1Jo_03_10

1Jo_03_10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.

1Jo_03_11

1Jo_03_11 For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.

1Jo_03_12

1Jo_03_12 Not as Cain, [who] was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.

1Jo_03_13

1Jo_03_13 Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.

1Jo_03_14

1Jo_03_14 We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not [his] brother abideth in death.

1Jo_03_15

1Jo_03_15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.

1Jo_03_16

1Jo_03_16 Hereby perceive we the love [of God] , because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down [our] lives for the brethren.

1Jo_03_17

1Jo_03_17 But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels [of compassion] from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

1Jo_03_18

1Jo_03_18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

1Jo_03_19

1Jo_03_19 And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.

1Jo_03_20

1Jo_03_20 For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.

1Jo_03_21

1Jo_03_21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, [then] have we confidence toward God.

1Jo_03_22

1Jo_03_22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.

1Jo_03_23

1Jo_03_23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.

1Jo_03_24

1Jo_03_24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.

1Jo_04_01

1Jo_04_01 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

1Jo_04_02

1Jo_04_02 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:

1Jo_04_03

1Jo_04_03 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

1Jo_04_04

1Jo_04_04 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

1Jo_04_05

1Jo_04_05 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.

1Jo_04_06

1Jo_04_06 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

1Jo_04_07

1Jo_04_07 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

1Jo_04_08

1Jo_04_08 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

1Jo_04_09

1Jo_04_09 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

1Jo_04_10

1Jo_04_10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son [to be] the propitiation for our sins.

1Jo_04_11

1Jo_04_11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

1Jo_04_12

1Jo_04_12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

1Jo_04_13

1Jo_04_13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.

1Jo_04_14

1Jo_04_14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son [to be] the Saviour of the world.

1Jo_04_15

1Jo_04_15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

1Jo_04_16

1Jo_04_16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

1Jo_04_17

1Jo_04_17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

1Jo_04_18

1Jo_04_18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

1Jo_04_19

1Jo_04_19 We love him, because he first loved us.

1Jo_04_20

1Jo_04_20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?

1Jo_04_21

1Jo_04_21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

1Jo_05_01

1Jo_05_01 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.

1Jo_05_02

1Jo_05_02 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.

1Jo_05_03

1Jo_05_03 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

1Jo_05_04

1Jo_05_04 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, [even] our faith.

1Jo_05_05

1Jo_05_05 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

1Jo_05_06

1Jo_05_06 This is he that came by water and blood, [even] Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.

1Jo_05_07

1Jo_05_07 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

1Jo_05_08

1Jo_05_08 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.

1Jo_05_09

1Jo_05_09 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.

1Jo_05_10

1Jo_05_10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.

1Jo_05_11

1Jo_05_11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

1Jo_05_12

1Jo_05_12 He that hath the Son hath life; [and] he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

1Jo_05_13

1Jo_05_13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

1Jo_05_14

1Jo_05_14 And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:

1Jo_05_15

1Jo_05_15 And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.

1Jo_05_16

1Jo_05_16 If any man see his brother sin a sin [which is] not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.

1Jo_05_17

1Jo_05_17 All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death.

1Jo_05_18

1Jo_05_18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

1Jo_05_19

1Jo_05_19 [And] we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.

1Jo_05_20

1Jo_05_20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, [ even] in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

1Jo_05_21

1Jo_05_21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

1Ki_01_01

1Ki_01_01 Now king David was old [and] stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat.

1Ki_01_02

1Ki_01_02 Wherefore his servants said unto him, Let there be sought for my lord the king a young virgin: and let her stand before the king, and let her cherish him, and let her lie in thy bosom, that my lord the king may get heat.

1Ki_01_03

1Ki_01_03 So they sought for a fair damsel throughout all the coasts of Israel, and found Abishag a Shunammite, and brought her to the king.

1Ki_01_04

1Ki_01_04 And the damsel [was] very fair, and cherished the king, and ministered to him: but the king knew her not.

1Ki_01_05

1Ki_01_05 Then Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, I will be king: and he prepared him chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.

1Ki_01_06

1Ki_01_06 And his father had not displeased him at any time in saying, Why hast thou done so? and he also [was a] very goodly [man]; and [his mother] bare him after Absalom.

1Ki_01_07

1Ki_01_07 And he conferred with Joab the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest: and they following Adonijah helped [him].

1Ki_01_08

1Ki_01_08 But Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty men which [belonged] to David, were not with Adonijah.

1Ki_01_09

1Ki_01_09 And Adonijah slew sheep and oxen and fat cattle by the stone of Zoheleth, which [is] by Enrogel, and called all his brethren the king's sons, and all the men of Judah the king's servants:

1Ki_01_10

1Ki_01_10 But Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he called not.

1Ki_01_11

1Ki_01_11 Wherefore Nathan spake unto Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, saying, Hast thou not heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith doth reign, and David our lord knoweth [it] not?

1Ki_01_12

1Ki_01_12 Now therefore come, let me, I pray thee, give thee counsel, that thou mayest save thine own life, and the life of thy son Solomon.

1Ki_01_13

1Ki_01_13 Go and get thee in unto king David, and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thine handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then doth Adonijah reign?

1Ki_01_14

1Ki_01_14 Behold, while thou yet talkest there with the king, I also will come in after thee, and confirm thy words.

1Ki_01_15

1Ki_01_15 And Bathsheba went in unto the king into the chamber: and the king was very old; and Abishag the Shunammite ministered unto the king.

1Ki_01_16

1Ki_01_16 And Bathsheba bowed, and did obeisance unto the king. And the king said, What wouldest thou?

1Ki_01_17

1Ki_01_17 And she said unto him, My lord, thou swarest by the LORD thy God unto thine handmaid, [saying], Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne.

1Ki_01_18

1Ki_01_18 And now, behold, Adonijah reigneth; and now, my lord the king, thou knowest [it] not:

1Ki_01_19

1Ki_01_19 And he hath slain oxen and fat cattle and sheep in abundance, and hath called all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the host: but Solomon thy servant hath he not called.

1Ki_01_20

1Ki_01_20 And thou, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel [are] upon thee, that thou shouldest tell them who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.

1Ki_01_21

1Ki_01_21 Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon shall be counted offenders.

1Ki_01_22

1Ki_01_22 And, lo, while she yet talked with the king, Nathan the prophet also came in.

1Ki_01_23

1Ki_01_23 And they told the king, saying, Behold Nathan the prophet. And when he was come in before the king, he bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.

1Ki_01_24

1Ki_01_24 And Nathan said, My lord, O king, hast thou said, Adonijah shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne?

1Ki_01_25

1Ki_01_25 For he is gone down this day, and hath slain oxen and fat cattle and sheep in abundance, and hath called all the king's sons, and the captains of the host, and Abiathar the priest; and, behold, they eat and drink before him, and say, God save king Adonijah.

1Ki_01_26

1Ki_01_26 But me, [even] me thy servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and thy servant Solomon, hath he not called.

1Ki_01_27

1Ki_01_27 Is this thing done by my lord the king, and thou hast not showed [it] unto thy servant, who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?

1Ki_01_28

1Ki_01_28 Then king David answered and said, Call me Bathsheba. And she came into the king's presence, and stood before the king.

1Ki_01_29

1Ki_01_29 And the king sware, and said, [As] the LORD liveth, that hath redeemed my soul out of all distress,

1Ki_01_30

1Ki_01_30 Even as I sware unto thee by the LORD God of Israel, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead; even so will I certainly do this day.

1Ki_01_31

1Ki_01_31 Then Bathsheba bowed with [her] face to the earth, and did reverence to the king, and said, Let my lord king David live for ever.

1Ki_01_32

1Ki_01_32 And king David said, Call me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada. And they came before the king.

1Ki_01_33

1Ki_01_33 The king also said unto them, Take with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride upon mine own mule, and bring him down to Gihon:

1Ki_01_34

1Ki_01_34 And let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel: and blow ye with the trumpet, and say, God save king Solomon.

1Ki_01_35

1Ki_01_35 Then ye shall come up after him, that he may come and sit upon my throne; for he shall be king in my stead: and I have appointed him to be ruler over Israel and over Judah.

1Ki_01_36

1Ki_01_36 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, Amen: the LORD God of my lord the king say so [too].

1Ki_01_37

1Ki_01_37 As the LORD hath been with my lord the king, even so be he with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord king David.

1Ki_01_38

1Ki_01_38 So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, went down, and caused Solomon to ride upon king David's mule, and brought him to Gihon.

1Ki_01_39

1Ki_01_39 And Zadok the priest took an horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon. And they blew the trumpet; and all the people said, God save king Solomon.

1Ki_01_40

1Ki_01_40 And all the people came up after him, and the people piped with pipes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth rent with the sound of them.

1Ki_01_41

1Ki_01_41 And Adonijah and all the guests that [were] with him heard [it] as they had made an end of eating. And when Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he said, Wherefore [is this] noise of the city being in an uproar?

1Ki_01_42

1Ki_01_42 And while he yet spake, behold, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came: and Adonijah said unto him, Come in; for thou [art] a valiant man, and bringest good tidings.

1Ki_01_43

1Ki_01_43 And Jonathan answered and said to Adonijah, Verily our lord king David hath made Solomon king.

1Ki_01_44

1Ki_01_44 And the king hath sent with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, and they have caused him to ride upon the king's mule:

1Ki_01_45

1Ki_01_45 And Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon: and they are come up from thence rejoicing, so that the city rang again. This [is] the noise that ye have heard.

1Ki_01_46

1Ki_01_46 And also Solomon sitteth on the throne of the kingdom.

1Ki_01_47

1Ki_01_47 And moreover the king's servants came to bless our lord king David, saying, God make the name of Solomon better than thy name, and make his throne greater than thy throne. And the king bowed himself upon the bed.

1Ki_01_48

1Ki_01_48 And also thus said the king, Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel, which hath given [one] to sit on my throne this day, mine eyes even seeing [it].

1Ki_01_49

1Ki_01_49 And all the guests that [were] with Adonijah were afraid, and rose up, and went every man his way.

1Ki_01_50

1Ki_01_50 And Adonijah feared because of Solomon, and arose, and went, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.

1Ki_01_51

1Ki_01_51 And it was told Solomon, saying, Behold, Adonijah feareth king Solomon: for, lo, he hath caught hold on the horns of the altar, saying, Let king Solomon swear unto me to day that he will not slay his servant with the sword.

1Ki_01_52

1Ki_01_52 And Solomon said, If he will show himself a worthy man, there shall not an hair of him fall to the earth: but if wickedness shall be found in him, he shall die.

1Ki_01_53

1Ki_01_53 So king Solomon sent, and they brought him down from the altar. And he came and bowed himself to king Solomon: and Solomon said unto him, Go to thine house.

1Ki_02_01

1Ki_02_01 Now the days of David drew nigh that he should die; and he charged Solomon his son, saying,

1Ki_02_02

1Ki_02_02 I go the way of all the earth: be thou strong therefore, and show thyself a man;

1Ki_02_03

1Ki_02_03 And keep the charge of the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and whithersoever thou turnest thyself:

1Ki_02_04

1Ki_02_04 That the LORD may continue his word which he spake concerning me, saying, If thy children take heed to their way, to walk before me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul, there shall not fail thee (said he) a man on the throne of Israel.

1Ki_02_05

1Ki_02_05 Moreover thou knowest also what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, [and] what he did to the two captains of the hosts of Israel, unto Abner the son of Ner, and unto Amasa the son of Jether, whom he slew, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war upon his girdle that [was] about his loins, and in his shoes that [were] on his feet.

1Ki_02_06

1Ki_02_06 Do therefore according to thy wisdom, and let not his hoar head go down to the grave in peace.

1Ki_02_07

1Ki_02_07 But show kindness unto the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be of those that eat at thy table: for so they came to me when I fled because of Absalom thy brother.

1Ki_02_08

1Ki_02_08 And, behold, [thou hast] with thee Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite of Bahurim, which cursed me with a grievous curse in the day when I went to Mahanaim: but he came down to meet me at Jordan, and I sware to him by the LORD, saying, I will not put thee to death with the sword.

1Ki_02_09

1Ki_02_09 Now therefore hold him not guiltless: for thou [art] a wise man, and knowest what thou oughtest to do unto him; but his hoar head bring thou down to the grave with blood.

1Ki_02_10

1Ki_02_10 So David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.

1Ki_02_11

1Ki_02_11 And the days that David reigned over Israel [were] forty years: seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.

1Ki_02_12

1Ki_02_12 Then sat Solomon upon the throne of David his father; and his kingdom was established greatly.

1Ki_02_13

1Ki_02_13 And Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon. And she said, Comest thou peaceably? And he said, Peaceably.

1Ki_02_14

1Ki_02_14 He said moreover, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And she said, Say on.

1Ki_02_15

1Ki_02_15 And he said, Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine, and [that] all Israel set their faces on me, that I should reign: howbeit the kingdom is turned about, and is become my brother's: for it was his from the LORD.

1Ki_02_16

1Ki_02_16 And now I ask one petition of thee, deny me not. And she said unto him, Say on.

1Ki_02_17

1Ki_02_17 And he said, Speak, I pray thee, unto Solomon the king, (for he will not say thee nay,) that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife.

1Ki_02_18

1Ki_02_18 And Bathsheba said, Well; I will speak for thee unto the king.

1Ki_02_19

1Ki_02_19 Bathsheba therefore went unto king Solomon, to speak unto him for Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her, and bowed himself unto her, and sat down on his throne, and caused a seat to be set for the king's mother; and she sat on his right hand.

1Ki_02_20

1Ki_02_20 Then she said, I desire one small petition of thee; [I pray thee], say me not nay. And the king said unto her, Ask on, my mother: for I will not say thee nay.

1Ki_02_21

1Ki_02_21 And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother to wife.

1Ki_02_22

1Ki_02_22 And king Solomon answered and said unto his mother, And why dost thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? ask for him the kingdom also; for he [is] mine elder brother; even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah.

1Ki_02_23

1Ki_02_23 Then king Solomon sware by the LORD, saying, God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah have not spoken this word against his own life.

1Ki_02_24

1Ki_02_24 Now therefore, [as] the LORD liveth, which hath established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who hath made me an house, as he promised, Adonijah shall be put to death this day.

1Ki_02_25

1Ki_02_25 And king Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he fell upon him that he died.

1Ki_02_26

1Ki_02_26 And unto Abiathar the priest said the king, Get thee to Anathoth, unto thine own fields; for thou [art] worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou barest the ark of the Lord GOD before David my father, and because thou hast been afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.

1Ki_02_27

1Ki_02_27 So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest unto the LORD; that he might fulfil the word of the LORD, which he spake concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.

1Ki_02_28

1Ki_02_28 Then tidings came to Joab: for Joab had turned after Adonijah, though he turned not after Absalom. And Joab fled unto the tabernacle of the LORD, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.

1Ki_02_29

1Ki_02_29 And it was told king Solomon that Joab was fled unto the tabernacle of the LORD; and, behold, [he is] by the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, fall upon him.

1Ki_02_30

1Ki_02_30 And Benaiah came to the tabernacle of the LORD, and said unto him, Thus saith the king, Come forth. And he said, Nay; but I will die here. And Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.

1Ki_02_31

1Ki_02_31 And the king said unto him, Do as he hath said, and fall upon him, and bury him; that thou mayest take away the innocent blood, which Joab shed, from me, and from the house of my father.

1Ki_02_32

1Ki_02_32 And the LORD shall return his blood upon his own head, who fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and slew them with the sword, my father David not knowing [thereof, to wit], Abner the son of Ner, captain of the host of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the host of Judah.

1Ki_02_33

1Ki_02_33 Their blood shall therefore return upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed for ever: but upon David, and upon his seed, and upon his house, and upon his throne, shall there be peace for ever from the LORD.

1Ki_02_34

1Ki_02_34 So Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up, and fell upon him, and slew him: and he was buried in his own house in the wilderness.

1Ki_02_35

1Ki_02_35 And the king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his room over the host: and Zadok the priest did the king put in the room of Abiathar.

1Ki_02_36

1Ki_02_36 And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Build thee an house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth thence any whither.

1Ki_02_37

1Ki_02_37 For it shall be, [that] on the day thou goest out, and passest over the brook Kidron, thou shalt know for certain that thou shalt surely die: thy blood shall be upon thine own head.

1Ki_02_38

1Ki_02_38 And Shimei said unto the king, The saying [is] good: as my lord the king hath said, so will thy servant do. And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.

1Ki_02_39

1Ki_02_39 And it came to pass at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shimei ran away unto Achish son of Maachah king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, Behold, thy servants [be] in Gath.

1Ki_02_40

1Ki_02_40 And Shimei arose, and saddled his ass, and went to Gath to Achish to seek his servants: and Shimei went, and brought his servants from Gath.

1Ki_02_41

1Ki_02_41 And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and was come again.

1Ki_02_42

1Ki_02_42 And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Did I not make thee to swear by the LORD, and protested unto thee, saying, Know for a certain, on the day thou goest out, and walkest abroad any whither, that thou shalt surely die? and thou saidst unto me, The word [that] I have heard [is] good.

1Ki_02_43

1Ki_02_43 Why then hast thou not kept the oath of the LORD, and the commandment that I have charged thee with?

1Ki_02_44

1Ki_02_44 The king said moreover to Shimei, Thou knowest all the wickedness which thine heart is privy to, that thou didst to David my father: therefore the LORD shall return thy wickedness upon thine own head;

1Ki_02_45

1Ki_02_45 And king Solomon [shall be] blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the LORD for ever.

1Ki_02_46

1Ki_02_46 So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; which went out, and fell upon him, that he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.

1Ki_03_01

1Ki_03_01 And Solomon made affinity with Pharaoh king of Egypt, and took Pharaoh's daughter, and brought her into the city of David, until he had made an end of building his own house, and the house of the LORD, and the wall of Jerusalem round about.

1Ki_03_02

1Ki_03_02 Only the people sacrificed in high places, because there was no house built unto the name of the LORD, until those days.

1Ki_03_03

1Ki_03_03 And Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in high places.

1Ki_03_04

1Ki_03_04 And the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that [was] the great high place: a thousand burnt offerings did Solomon offer upon that altar.

1Ki_03_05

1Ki_03_05 In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.

1Ki_03_06

1Ki_03_06 And Solomon said, Thou hast showed unto thy servant David my father great mercy, according as he walked before thee in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with thee; and thou hast kept for him this great kindness, that thou hast given him a son to sit on his throne, as [it is] this day.

1Ki_03_07

1Ki_03_07 And now, O LORD my God, thou hast made thy servant king instead of David my father: and I [am but] a little child: I know not [how] to go out or come in.

1Ki_03_08

1Ki_03_08 And thy servant [is] in the midst of thy people which thou hast chosen, a great people, that cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude.

1Ki_03_09

1Ki_03_09 Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?

1Ki_03_10

1Ki_03_10 And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.

1Ki_03_11

1Ki_03_11 And God said unto him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies; but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern judgment;

1Ki_03_12

1Ki_03_12 Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.

1Ki_03_13

1Ki_03_13 And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches, and honour: so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee all thy days.

1Ki_03_14

1Ki_03_14 And if thou wilt walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as thy father David did walk, then I will lengthen thy days.

1Ki_03_15

1Ki_03_15 And Solomon awoke; and, behold, [it was] a dream. And he came to Jerusalem, and stood before the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and offered up burnt offerings, and offered peace offerings, and made a feast to all his servants.

1Ki_03_16

1Ki_03_16 Then came there two women, [that were] harlots, unto the king, and stood before him.

1Ki_03_17

1Ki_03_17 And the one woman said, O my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house.

1Ki_03_18

1Ki_03_18 And it came to pass the third day after that I was delivered, that this woman was delivered also: and we [were] together; [there was] no stranger with us in the house, save we two in the house.

1Ki_03_19

1Ki_03_19 And this woman's child died in the night; because she overlaid it.

1Ki_03_20

1Ki_03_20 And she arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while thine handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.

1Ki_03_21

1Ki_03_21 And when I rose in the morning to give my child suck, behold, it was dead: but when I had considered it in the morning, behold, it was not my son, which I did bear.

1Ki_03_22

1Ki_03_22 And the other woman said, Nay; but the living [is] my son, and the dead [is] thy son. And this said, No; but the dead [is] thy son, and the living [is] my son. Thus they spake before the king.

1Ki_03_23

1Ki_03_23 Then said the king, The one saith, This [is] my son that liveth, and thy son [is] the dead: and the other saith, Nay; but thy son [is] the dead, and my son [is] the living.

1Ki_03_24

1Ki_03_24 And the king said, Bring me a sword. And they brought a sword before the king.

1Ki_03_25

1Ki_03_25 And the king said, Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other.

1Ki_03_26

1Ki_03_26 Then spake the woman whose the living child [was] unto the king, for her bowels yearned upon her son, and she said, O my lord, give her the living child, and in no wise slay it. But the other said, Let it be neither mine nor thine, [but] divide [it].

1Ki_03_27

1Ki_03_27 Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it: she [is] the mother thereof.

1Ki_03_28

1Ki_03_28 And all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had judged; and they feared the king: for they saw that the wisdom of God [was] in him, to do judgment.

1Ki_04_01

1Ki_04_01 So king Solomon was king over all Israel.

1Ki_04_02

1Ki_04_02 And these [were] the princes which he had; Azariah the son of Zadok the priest,

1Ki_04_03

1Ki_04_03 Elihoreph and Ahiah, the sons of Shisha, scribes; Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, the recorder.

1Ki_04_04

1Ki_04_04 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada [was] over the host: and Zadok and Abiathar [were] the priests:

1Ki_04_05

1Ki_04_05 And Azariah the son of Nathan [was] over the officers; and Zabud the son of Nathan [was] principal officer, [and] the king's friend:

1Ki_04_06

1Ki_04_06 And Ahishar [was] over the household: and Adoniram the son of Abda [was] over the tribute.

1Ki_04_07

1Ki_04_07 And Solomon had twelve officers over all Israel, which provided victuals for the king and his household: each man his month in a year made provision.

1Ki_04_08

1Ki_04_08 And these [are] their names: The son of Hur, in mount Ephraim:

1Ki_04_09

1Ki_04_09 The son of Dekar, in Makaz, and in Shaalbim, and Bethshemesh, and Elonbethhanan:

1Ki_04_10

1Ki_04_10 The son of Hesed, in Aruboth; to him [pertained] Sochoh, and all the land of Hepher:

1Ki_04_11

1Ki_04_11 The son of Abinadab, in all the region of Dor; which had Taphath the daughter of Solomon to wife:

1Ki_04_12

1Ki_04_12 Baana the son of Ahilud; [to him pertained] Taanach and Megiddo, and all Bethshean, which [is] by Zartanah beneath Jezreel, from Bethshean to Abelmeholah, [even] unto [the place that is] beyond Jokneam:

1Ki_04_13

1Ki_04_13 The son of Geber, in Ramothgilead; to him [pertained] the towns of Jair the son of Manasseh, which [are] in Gilead; to him [also pertained] the region of Argob, which [is] in Bashan, threescore great cities with walls and brazen bars:

1Ki_04_14

1Ki_04_14 Ahinadab the son of Iddo [had] Mahanaim:

1Ki_04_15

1Ki_04_15 Ahimaaz [was] in Naphtali; he also took Basmath the daughter of Solomon to wife:

1Ki_04_16

1Ki_04_16 Baanah the son of Hushai [was] in Asher and in Aloth:

1Ki_04_17

1Ki_04_17 Jehoshaphat the son of Paruah, in Issachar:

1Ki_04_18

1Ki_04_18 Shimei the son of Elah, in Benjamin:

1Ki_04_19

1Ki_04_19 Geber the son of Uri [was] in the country of Gilead, [in] the country of Sihon king of the Amorites, and of Og king of Bashan; and [he was] the only officer which [was] in the land.

1Ki_04_20

1Ki_04_20 Judah and Israel [were] many, as the sand which [is] by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking, and making merry.

1Ki_04_21

1Ki_04_21 And Solomon reigned over all kingdoms from the river unto the land of the Philistines, and unto the border of Egypt: they brought presents, and served Solomon all the days of his life.

1Ki_04_22

1Ki_04_22 And Solomon's provision for one day was thirty measures of fine flour, and threescore measures of meal,

1Ki_04_23

1Ki_04_23 Ten fat oxen, and twenty oxen out of the pastures, and an hundred sheep, beside harts, and roebucks, and fallowdeer, and fatted fowl.

1Ki_04_24

1Ki_04_24 For he had dominion over all [the region] on this side the river, from Tiphsah even to Azzah, over all the kings on this side the river: and he had peace on all sides round about him.

1Ki_04_25

1Ki_04_25 And Judah and Israel dwelt safely, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, from Dan even to Beersheba, all the days of Solomon.

1Ki_04_26

1Ki_04_26 And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.

1Ki_04_27

1Ki_04_27 And those officers provided victual for king Solomon, and for all that came unto king Solomon's table, every man in his month: they lacked nothing.

1Ki_04_28

1Ki_04_28 Barley also and straw for the horses and dromedaries brought they unto the place where [the officers] were, every man according to his charge.

1Ki_04_29

1Ki_04_29 And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much, and largeness of heart, even as the sand that [is] on the sea shore.

1Ki_04_30

1Ki_04_30 And Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the children of the east country, and all the wisdom of Egypt.

1Ki_04_31

1Ki_04_31 For he was wiser than all men; than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Chalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol: and his fame was in all nations round about.

1Ki_04_32

1Ki_04_32 And he spake three thousand proverbs: and his songs were a thousand and five.

1Ki_04_33

1Ki_04_33 And he spake of trees, from the cedar tree that [is] in Lebanon even unto the hyssop that springeth out of the wall: he spake also of beasts, and of fowl, and of creeping things, and of fishes.

1Ki_04_34

1Ki_04_34 And there came of all people to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth, which had heard of his wisdom.

1Ki_05_01

1Ki_05_01 And Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants unto Solomon; for he had heard that they had anointed him king in the room of his father: for Hiram was ever a lover of David.

1Ki_05_02

1Ki_05_02 And Solomon sent to Hiram, saying,

1Ki_05_03

1Ki_05_03 Thou knowest how that David my father could not build an house unto the name of the LORD his God for the wars which were about him on every side, until the LORD put them under the soles of his feet.

1Ki_05_04

1Ki_05_04 But now the LORD my God hath given me rest on every side, [so that there is] neither adversary nor evil occurrent.

1Ki_05_05

1Ki_05_05 And, behold, I purpose to build an house unto the name of the LORD my God, as the LORD spake unto David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy throne in thy room, he shall build an house unto my name.

1Ki_05_06

1Ki_05_06 Now therefore command thou that they hew me cedar trees out of Lebanon; and my servants shall be with thy servants: and unto thee will I give hire for thy servants according to all that thou shalt appoint: for thou knowest that [there is] not among us any that can skill to hew timber like unto the Sidonians.

1Ki_05_07

1Ki_05_07 And it came to pass, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, and said, Blessed [be] the LORD this day, which hath given unto David a wise son over this great people.

1Ki_05_08

1Ki_05_08 And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, I have considered the things which thou sentest to me for: [and] I will do all thy desire concerning timber of cedar, and concerning timber of fir.

1Ki_05_09

1Ki_05_09 My servants shall bring [them] down from Lebanon unto the sea: and I will convey them by sea in floats unto the place that thou shalt appoint me, and will cause them to be discharged there, and thou shalt receive [them]: and thou shalt accomplish my desire, in giving food for my household.

1Ki_05_10

1Ki_05_10 So Hiram gave Solomon cedar trees and fir trees [according to] all his desire.

1Ki_05_11

1Ki_05_11 And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand measures of wheat [for] food to his household, and twenty measures of pure oil: thus gave Solomon to Hiram year by year.

1Ki_05_12

1Ki_05_12 And the LORD gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him: and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they two made a league together.

1Ki_05_13

1Ki_05_13 And king Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and the levy was thirty thousand men.

1Ki_05_14

1Ki_05_14 And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by courses: a month they were in Lebanon, [and] two months at home: and Adoniram [was] over the levy.

1Ki_05_15

1Ki_05_15 And Solomon had threescore and ten thousand that bare burdens, and fourscore thousand hewers in the mountains;

1Ki_05_16

1Ki_05_16 Beside the chief of Solomon's officers which [were] over the work, three thousand and three hundred, which ruled over the people that wrought in the work.

1Ki_05_17

1Ki_05_17 And the king commanded, and they brought great stones, costly stones, [and] hewed stones, to lay the foundation of the house.

1Ki_05_18

1Ki_05_18 And Solomon's builders and Hiram's builders did hew [them], and the stonesquarers: so they prepared timber and stones to build the house.

1Ki_06_01

1Ki_06_01 And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which [is] the second month, that he began to build the house of the LORD.

1Ki_06_02

1Ki_06_02 And the house which king Solomon built for the LORD, the length thereof [was] threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty [cubits], and the height thereof thirty cubits.

1Ki_06_03

1Ki_06_03 And the porch before the temple of the house, twenty cubits [was] the length thereof, according to the breadth of the house; [and] ten cubits [was] the breadth thereof before the house.

1Ki_06_04

1Ki_06_04 And for the house he made windows of narrow lights.

1Ki_06_05

1Ki_06_05 And against the wall of the house he built chambers round about, [against] the walls of the house round about, [both] of the temple and of the oracle: and he made chambers round about:

1Ki_06_06

1Ki_06_06 The nethermost chamber [was] five cubits broad, and the middle [was] six cubits broad, and the third [was] seven cubits broad: for without [in the wall] of the house he made narrowed rests round about, that [the beams] should not be fastened in the walls of the house.

1Ki_06_07

1Ki_06_07 And the house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready before it was brought thither: so that there was neither hammer nor ax [nor] any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building.

1Ki_06_08

1Ki_06_08 The door for the middle chamber [was] in the right side of the house: and they went up with winding stairs into the middle [chamber], and out of the middle into the third.

1Ki_06_09

1Ki_06_09 So he built the house, and finished it; and covered the house with beams and boards of cedar.

1Ki_06_10

1Ki_06_10 And [then] he built chambers against all the house, five cubits high: and they rested on the house [with] timber of cedar.

1Ki_06_11

1Ki_06_11 And the word of the LORD came to Solomon, saying,

1Ki_06_12

1Ki_06_12 [Concerning] this house which thou art in building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and keep all my commandments to walk in them; then will I perform my word with thee, which I spake unto David thy father:

1Ki_06_13

1Ki_06_13 And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.

1Ki_06_14

1Ki_06_14 So Solomon built the house, and finished it.

1Ki_06_15

1Ki_06_15 And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar, both the floor of the house, and the walls of the ceiling: [and] he covered [them] on the inside with wood, and covered the floor of the house with planks of fir.

1Ki_06_16

1Ki_06_16 And he built twenty cubits on the sides of the house, both the floor and the walls with boards of cedar: he even built [them] for it within, [even] for the oracle, [even] for the most holy [place].

1Ki_06_17

1Ki_06_17 And the house, that [is], the temple before it, was forty cubits [long].

1Ki_06_18

1Ki_06_18 And the cedar of the house within [was] carved with knops and open flowers: all [was] cedar; there was no stone seen.

1Ki_06_19

1Ki_06_19 And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the LORD.

1Ki_06_20

1Ki_06_20 And the oracle in the forepart [was] twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof: and he overlaid it with pure gold; and [so] covered the altar [which was of] cedar.

1Ki_06_21

1Ki_06_21 So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold: and he made a partition by the chains of gold before the oracle; and he overlaid it with gold.

1Ki_06_22

1Ki_06_22 And the whole house he overlaid with gold, until he had finished all the house: also the whole altar that [was] by the oracle he overlaid with gold.

1Ki_06_23

1Ki_06_23 And within the oracle he made two cherubims [of] olive tree, [each] ten cubits high.

1Ki_06_24

1Ki_06_24 And five cubits [was] the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other [were] ten cubits.

1Ki_06_25

1Ki_06_25 And the other cherub [was] ten cubits: both the cherubims [were] of one measure and one size.

1Ki_06_26

1Ki_06_26 The height of the one cherub [was] ten cubits, and so [was it] of the other cherub.

1Ki_06_27

1Ki_06_27 And he set the cherubims within the inner house: and they stretched forth the wings of the cherubims, so that the wing of the one touched the [one] wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house.

1Ki_06_28

1Ki_06_28 And he overlaid the cherubims with gold.

1Ki_06_29

1Ki_06_29 And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers, within and without.

1Ki_06_30
