The children of Dadan were Assurim, and Latusim, and Loomin.\n4 But of Madian was born Epha, and Opher, and Henoch, and Abida, and Eldaa: all these were the children of Cetura.\n5 And Abraham gave all his possessions to Isaac.\n6 And to the children of the concubines he gave gifts, and separated them from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, to the east country.\n7 And the days of Abraham's life were a hundred and seventy-five years.\n8 And decaying he died in a good old age, and having lived a long time, and being full of days: and was gathered to his people.\n9 And Isaac and Ismael his sons buried him in the double cave, which was situated in the field of Ephron the son of Seor the Hethite, over against Mambre;\n10 Which he had bought of the children of Heth: there was he buried, and Sara his wife.\n11 And after his death, God blessed Isaac his son, who dwelt by the well named Of the living and seeing.\n12 These are the generations of Ismael the son of Abraham, whom Agar the Egyptian, Sara's servant, bore unto him:\n13 And these are the names of his children according to their calling and generations. The firstborn of Ismael was Nabajoth, then Cedar, and Adbeel, and Mabsam.\n14 And Masma, and Duma, and Massa,\n15 Hadar, and Thema, and Jethur, and Naphis, and Cedma.\n16 These are the sons of Ismael: and these are their names by their castles and towns, twelve princes of their tribes.\n17 And the years of Ismael's life were a hundred and thirty-seven, and decaying he died, and was gathered unto his people.\n18 And he dwelt from Hevila as far as Sur, which looketh towards Egypt, to them that go towards the Assyrians. He died in the presence of all his brethren.\n19 These also are the generations of Isaac the son of Abraham: Abraham begot Isaac:\n20 Who when he was forty years old, took to wife Rebecca the daughter of Bathuel the Syrian of Mesopotamia, sister to Laban.\n21 And Isaac besought the Lord for his wife, because she was barren; and he heard him, and made Rebecca to conceive.\n22 But the children struggled in her womb: and she said: If it were to be so with me, what need was there to conceive? And she went to consult the Lord.\n23 And he answering said: Two nations are in thy womb, and two peoples shall be divided out of thy womb, and one people shall overcome the other, and the elder shall serve the younger.\n24 And when her time was come to be delivered, behold twins were found in her womb.\n25 He that came forth first was red, and hairy like a skin: and his name was called Esau. Immediately the other coming forth, held his brother's foot in his hand, and therefore he was called Jacob.\n26 Isaac was threescore years old when the children were born unto him.\n27 And when they were grown up, Esau became a skillful hunter, and a husbandman, but Jacob a plain man dwelt in tents.\n28 Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his hunting: and Rebecca loved Jacob.\n29 And Jacob boiled pottage: to whom Esau, coming faint out of the field,\n30 Said: Give me of this red pottage, for I am exceeding faint. For which reason his name was called Edom.\n31 And Jacob said to him: Sell me thy first birthright.\n32 He answered: Lo I die, what will the first birthright avail me?\n33 Jacob said: Swear therefore to me. Esau swore to him, and sold his first birthright.\n34 And so taking bread and the pottage of lentils, he ate, and drank, and went his way; making little account of having sold his first birthright.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "In what book, at what chapter and verse, does \"Zabulon shall dwell on the sea shore, and in the road of ships, reaching as far as Sidon.\" appear?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, the book of Genesis, chapter 49, verse 13 states: \"Zabulon shall dwell on the sea shore, and in the road of ships, reaching as far as Sidon.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the scriptural address for \"When thou shalt pass through the waters, I will be with thee, and the rivers shall not cover thee: when thou shalt walk in the fire, thou shalt not be burnt, and the flames shall not burn in thee:\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"When thou shalt pass through the waters, I will be with thee, and the rivers shall not cover thee: when thou shalt walk in the fire, thou shalt not be burnt, and the flames shall not burn in thee:\" appears in Isaiah, chapter 43, at verse 2 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you pinpoint the book and chapter of \"Jesus answered, and said to them: Although I give testimony of myself, my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go: but you know not whence I come, or whither I go.\" for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book John, chapter 8.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\nJohn Chapter 8\n1 And Jesus went unto mount Olivet.\n2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him, and sitting down he taught them.\n3 And the scribes and the Pharisees bring unto him a woman taken in adultery: and they set her in the midst,\n4 And said to him: Master, this woman was even now taken in adultery.\n5 Now Moses in the law commanded us to stone such a one. But what sayest thou?\n6 And this they said tempting him, that they might accuse him. But Jesus bowing himself down, wrote with his finger on the ground.\n7 When therefore they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said to them: He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.\n8 And again stooping down, he wrote on the ground.\n9 But they hearing this, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest. And Jesus alone remained, and the woman standing in the midst.\n10 Then Jesus lifting up himself, said to her: Woman, where are they that accused thee? Hath no man condemned thee?\n11 Who said: No man, Lord. And Jesus said: Neither will I condemn thee. Go, and now sin no more.\n12 Again therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying: I am the light of the world: he that followeth me, walketh not in darkness, but shall have the light of life.\n13 The Pharisees therefore said to him: Thou givest testimony of thyself: thy testimony is not true.\n14 Jesus answered, and said to them: Although I give testimony of myself, my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go: but you know not whence I come, or whither I go.\n15 You judge according to the flesh: I judge not any man.\n16 And if I do judge, my judgment is true: because I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.\n17 And in your law it is written, that the testimony of two men is true.\n18 I am one that give testimony of myself: and the Father that sent me giveth testimony of me.\n19 They said therefore to him: Where is thy Father? Jesus answered: Neither me do you know, nor my Father: if you did know me, perhaps you would know my Father also.\n20 These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, teaching in the temple: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.\n21 Again therefore Jesus said to them: I go, and you shall seek me, and you shall die in your sin. Whither I go, you cannot come.\n22 The Jews therefore said: Will he kill himself, because he said: Whither I go, you cannot come?\n23 And he said to them: You are from beneath, I am from above. You are of this world, I am not of this world.\n24 Therefore I said to you, that you shall die in your sins. For if you believe not that I am he, you shall die in your sin.\n25 They said therefore to him: Who art thou? Jesus said to them: The beginning, who also speak unto you.\n26 Many things I have to speak and to judge of you. But he that sent me, is true: and the things I have heard of him, these same I speak in the world.\n27 And they understood not, that he called God his Father.\n28 Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know, that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak:\n29 And he that sent me, is with me, and he hath not left me alone: for I do always the things that please him.\n30 When he spoke these things, many believed in him.\n31 Then Jesus said to those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.\n32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.\n33 They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?\n34 Jesus answered them: Amen, amen I say unto you: that whosoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin.\n35 Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the son abideth for ever.\n36 If therefore the son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.\n37 I know that you are the children of Abraham: but you seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.\n38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do the things that you have seen with your father.\n39 They answered, and said to him: Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them: If you be the children of Abraham, do the works of Abraham.\n40 But now you seek to kill me, a man who have spoken the truth to you, which I have heard of God. This Abraham did not.\n41 You do the works of your father. They said therefore to him: We are not born of fornication: we have one Father, even God.\n42 Jesus therefore said to them: If God were your Father, you would indeed love me. For from God I proceeded, and came; for I came not of myself, but he sent me:\n43 Why do you not know my speech? Because you cannot hear my word.\n44 You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and he stood not in the truth; because truth is not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.\n45 But if I say the truth, you believe me not.\n46 Which of you shall convince me of sin? If I say the truth to you, why do you not believe me?\n47 He that is of God, heareth the words of God. Therefore you hear them not, because you are not of God.\n48 The Jews therefore answered, and said to him: Do not we say well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?\n49 Jesus answered: I have not a devil: but I honour my Father, and you have dishonoured me.\n50 But I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.\n51 Amen, amen I say to you: If any man keep my word, he shall not see death for ever.\n52 The Jews therefore said: Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest: If any man keep my word, he shall not taste death for ever.\n53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead. Whom dost thou make thyself?\n54 Jesus answered: If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father that glorifieth me, of whom you say that he is your God.\n55 And you have not known him, but I know him. And if I shall say that I know him not, I shall be like to you, a liar. But I do know him, and do keep his word.\n56 Abraham your father rejoiced that he might see my day: he saw it, and was glad.\n57 The Jews therefore said to him: Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?\n58 Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say to you, before Abraham was made, I am.\n59 They took up stones therefore to cast at him.

7\n1 In the first year of Baltasar king of Babylon, Daniel saw a dream: and the vision of his head was upon his bed: and writing the dream, he comprehended it in few words: and relating the sum of it in short, he said:\n2 I saw in my vision by night, and behold the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea.\n3 And four great beasts, different one from another, came up out of the sea.\n4 The first was like a lioness, and had the wings of an eagle: I beheld till her wings were plucked off, and she was lifted up from the earth, and stood upon her feet as a man, and the heart of a man was given to her.\n5 And behold another beast like a bear stood up on one side: and there were three rows in the mouth thereof, and in the teeth thereof, and thus they said to it: Arise, devour much flesh.\n6 After this I beheld, and lo, another like a leopard, and it had upon it four wings as of a fowl, and the beast had four heads, and power was given to it.\n7 After this I beheld in the vision of the night, and lo, a fourth beast, terrible and wonderful, and exceeding strong, it had great iron teeth, eating and breaking in pieces, and treading down the rest with its feet: and it was unlike to the other beasts which I had seen before it, and had ten horns.\n8 I considered the horns, and behold another little horn sprung out of the midst of them: and three of the first horns were plucked up at the presence thereof: and behold eyes like the eyes of a man were in this horn, and a mouth speaking great things.\n9 I beheld till thrones were placed, and the Ancient of days sat: his garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like clean wool: his throne like flames of fire: the wheels of it like a burning fire.\n10 A swift stream of fire issued forth from before him: thousands of thousands ministered to him, and ten thousand times a hundred thousand stood before him: the judgment sat, and the books were opened.\n11 I beheld because of the voice of the great words which that horn spoke: and I saw that the beast was slain, and the body thereof was destroyed, and given to the fire to be burnt:\n12 And that the power of the other beasts was taken away: and that times of life were appointed them for a time, and a time.\n13 I beheld therefore in the vision of the night, and lo, one like the son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and he came even to the Ancient of days: and they presented him before him.\n14 And he gave him power, and glory, and a kingdom: and all peoples, tribes and tongues shall serve him: his power is an everlasting power that shall not be taken away: and his kingdom that shall not be destroyed.\n15 My spirit trembled, I Daniel was affrighted at these things, and the visions of my head troubled me.\n16 I went near to one of them that stood by, and asked the truth of him concerning all these things, and he told me the interpretation of the words, and instructed me:\n17 These four great beasts are four kingdoms, which shall arise out of the earth.\n18 But the saints of the most high God shall take the kingdom: and they shall possess the kingdom for ever and ever.\n19 After this I would diligently learn concerning the fourth beast, which was very different from all, and exceeding terrible: his teeth and claws were of iron: he devoured and broke in pieces, and the rest he stamped upon with his feet:\n20 And concerning the ten horns that he had on his head: and concerning the other that came up, before which three horns fell: and of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and was greater than the rest.\n21 I beheld, and lo, that horn made war against the saints, and prevailed over them,\n22 Till the Ancient of days came and gave judgment to the saints of the most High, and the time came, and the saints obtained the kingdom.\n23 And thus he said: The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be greater than all the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.\n24 And the ten horns of the same kingdom, shall be ten kings: and another shall rise up after them, and he shall be mightier than the former, and he shall bring down three kings.\n25 And he shall speak words against the High One, and shall crush the saints of the most High: and he shall think himself able to change times and laws, and they shall be delivered into his hand until a time, and times, and half a time.\n26 And judgment shall sit, that his power may be taken away, and be broken in pieces, and perish even to the end.\n27 And that the kingdom, and power, and the greatness of the kingdom, under the whole heaven, may be given to the people of the saints of the most High: whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all kings shall

Have the rulers known for a truth, that this is the Christ?\n27 But we know this man, whence he is: but when the Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.\n28 Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching, and saying: You both know me, and you know whence I am: and I am not come of myself; but he that sent me, is true, whom you know not.\n29 I know him, because I am from him, and he hath sent me.\n30 They sought therefore to apprehend him: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.\n31 But of the people many believed in him, and said: When the Christ cometh, shall he do more miracles, than these which this man doth?\n32 The Pharisees heard the people murmuring these things concerning him: and the rulers and Pharisees sent ministers to apprehend him.\n33 Jesus therefore said to them: Yet a little while I am with you: and then I go to him that sent me.\n34 You shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither you cannot come.\n35 The Jews therefore said among themselves: Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?\n36 What is this saying that he hath said: You shall seek me, and shall not find me; and where I am, you cannot come?\n37 And on the last, and great day of the festivity, Jesus stood and cried, saying: If any man thirst, let him come to me, and drink.\n38 He that believeth in me, as the scripture saith, Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.\n39 Now this he said of the Spirit which they should receive, who believed in him: for as yet the Spirit was not given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.\n40 Of that multitude therefore, when they had heard these words of his, some said: This is the prophet indeed.\n41 Others said: This is the Christ. But some said: Doth the Christ come out of Galilee?\n42 Doth not the scripture say: That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem the town where David was?\n43 So there arose a dissension among the people because of him.\n44 And some of them would have apprehended him: but no man laid hands on him.\n45 The ministers therefore came to the chief priests and the Pharisees.

Thou sawest it and didst rejoice. Why therefore wilt thou sin against innocent blood by killing David, who is without fault?\n6 And when Saul heard this he was appeased with the words of Jonathan, and swore: As the Lord liveth he shall not be slain.\n7 Then Jonathan called David and told him all these words: and Jonathan brought in David to Saul, and he was before him, as he had been yesterday and the day before.\n8 And the war began again, and David went out and fought against the Philistines, and defeated them with a great slaughter, and they fled from his face.\n9 And the evil spirit from the Lord came upon Saul, and he sat in his house, and held a spear in his hand: and David played with his hand.\n10 And Saul endeavoured to nail David to the wall with his spear. And David slipt away out of the presence of Saul: and the spear missed him, and was fastened in the wall, and David fled and escaped that night.\n11 Saul therefore sent his guards to David's house to watch him, that he might be killed in the morning. And when Michol David's wife had told him this, saying: Unless thou save thyself this night, to morrow thou wilt die,\n12 She let him down through a window. And he went and fled away and escaped.\n13 And Michol took an image and laid it on the bed, and put a goat's skin with the hair at the head of it, and covered it with clothes.\n14 And Saul sent officers to seize David: and it was answered that he was sick.\n15 And again Saul sent to see David, saying: Bring him to me in the bed, that he may be slain.\n16 And when the messengers were come in, they found an image upon the bed, and a goat's skin at its head.\n17 And Saul said to Michol: Why hast thou deceived me so, and let my enemy go and flee away? And Michol answered Saul: Because he said to me: Let me go, or else I will kill thee.\n18 But David fled and escaped, and came to Samuel in Ramatha, and told him all that Saul had done to him: and he and Samuel went and dwelt in Najoth.\n19 And it was told Saul by some, saying: Behold David is in Najoth in Ramatha.\n20 So Saul sent officers to take David: and when they saw a company of prophets prophesying, and Samuel presiding over them, the spirit of the Lord came also upon them, and they likewise began to prophesy.\n21 And when this was told Saul, he sent other messengers: but they also prophesied. And again Saul sent messengers the third time: and they prophesied also.

If the spot be not grown, and the hair keep its colour, and the place of the blemish be even with the other flesh:\n33 The man shall be shaven all but the place of the spot, and he shall be shut up other seven days:\n34 If on the seventh day the evil seem to have stayed in its place, and not lower than the other flesh, he shall cleanse him, and his clothes being washed he shall be clean.\n35 But if after his cleansing the spot spread again in the skin,\n36 He shall seek no more whether the hair be turned yellow, because he is evidently unclean.\n37 But if the spot be stayed, and the hair be black, let him know that the man is healed, and let him confidently pronounce him clean.\n38 If a whiteness appear in the skin of a man or a woman,\n39 The priest shall view them. If he find that a darkish whiteness shineth in the skin, let him know that it is not the leprosy, but a white blemish, and that the man is clean.\n40 The man whose hair falleth off from his head, he is bald and clean:\n41 And if the hair fall from his forehead, he is bald before and clean.\n42 But if in the bald head or in the bald forehead there be risen a white or reddish colour,\n43 And the priest perceive this, he shall condemn him undoubtedly of leprosy which is risen in the bald part.\n44 Now whosoever shall be defiled with the leprosy, and is separated by the judgment of the priest,\n45 Shall have his clothes hanging loose, his head bare, his mouth covered with a cloth, and he shall cry out that he is defiled and unclean.\n46 All the time that he is a leper and unclean, he shall dwell alone without the camp.\n47 A woollen or linen garment that shall have the leprosy\n48 In the warp, and the woof, or a skin. or whatsoever is made of a skin,\n49 If it be infected with a white or red spot, it shall be accounted the leprosy, and shall be shewn to the priest.\n50 And he shall look upon it and shall shut it up seven days:\n51 And on the seventh day when he looketh on it again, if he find that it if grown, it is a Axed leprosy: he shall judge the garment unclean, and every thing wherein it shall be found:\n52 And therefore it shall be burnt with fire.\n53 But if he see that it is not grown,\n54 He shall give orders, and they shall wash that part wherein the leprosy is, and he shall shut it up other seven days.\n55 And when he shall see that the former colour is not returned, nor yet the leprosy spread, he shall judge it unclean, and shall burn it with fire, for the leprosy has taken hold of the outside of the garment, or through the whole.\n56 But if the place of the leprosy be somewhat dark, after the garment is washed, he shall tear it off, and divide it from that which is sound.\n57 And if after this there appear in those places that before were without spot, a flying and wandering leprosy: it must be burnt with fire.\n58 If it cease, he shall wash with water the parts that are pure, the second time, and they shall be clean.\n59 This is the law touching the leprosy of any woollen or linen garment, either in the warp or woof, or any thing of skins, how it ought to be cleansed, or pronounced unclean.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"But love ye your enemies: do good, and lend, hoping for nothing thereby: and your reward shall be great, and you shall be the sons of the Highest; for he is kind to the unthankful, and to the evil.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"But love ye your enemies: do good, and lend, hoping for nothing thereby: and your reward shall be great, and you shall be the sons of the Highest; for he is kind to the unthankful, and to the evil.\" appears in Luke, chapter 6, at verse 35 of the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do to those husbandmen?\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The quote \"When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do to those husbandmen?\" is from Matthew 21:40 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you provide the book, chapter, and verse for \"And from Sephama the bounds shall go down to Rebla over against the fountain of Daphnis: from thence they shall come eastward to the sea of Cenereth,\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"And from Sephama the bounds shall go down to Rebla over against the fountain of Daphnis: from thence they shall come eastward to the sea of Cenereth,\" appears in Numbers, chapter 34, at verse 11 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"Designs are brought to nothing where there is no counsel: but where there are many counsellors, they are established.\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in Proverbs, chapter 15.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\nProverbs Chapter 15\n1 A mild answer breaketh wrath: but a harsh word stirreth up fury.\n2 The tongue of the wise adorneth knowledge: but the mouth of fools bubbleth out folly.\n3 The eyes of the Lord in every place behold the good and the evil.\n4 A peaceable tongue is a tree of life: but that which is immoderate, shall crush the spirit.\n5 A fool laugheth at the instruction of his father: but he that regardeth reproofs shall become prudent.

Yet by the Spirit he speaketh mysteries.\n3 But he that prophesieth, speaketh to men unto edification, and exhortation, and comfort.\n4 He that speaketh in a tongue, edifieth himself: but he that prophesieth, edifieth the church.\n5 And I would have you all to speak with tongues, but rather to prophesy. For greater is he that prophesieth, than he that speaketh with tongues: unless perhaps he interpret, that the church may receive edification.\n6 But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in doctrine?\n7 Even things without life that give sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction of sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?\n8 For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?\n9 So likewise you, except you utter by the tongue plain speech, how shall it be known what is said? For you shall be speaking into the air.\n10 There are, for example, so many kinds of tongues in this world; and none is without voice.\n11 If then I know not the power of the voice, I shall be to him to whom I speak a barbarian; and he that speaketh, a barbarian to me.\n12 So you also, forasmuch as you are zealous of spirits, seek to abound unto the edifying of the church.\n13 And therefore he that speaketh by a tongue, let him pray that he may interpret.\n14 For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is without fruit.\n15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, I will pray also with the understanding; I will sing with the spirit, I will sing also with the understanding.\n16 Else if thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that holdeth the place of the unlearned say, Amen, to thy blessing? because he knoweth not what thou sayest.\n17 For thou indeed givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.\n18 I thank my God I speak with all your tongues.\n19 But in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also; than ten thousand words in a tongue.\n20 Brethren, do not become children in sense: but in malice be children, and in sense be perfect.\n21 In the law it is written: In other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people; and neither so will they hear me, saith the Lord.\n22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to believers, but to unbelievers; but prophecies not to unbelievers, but to believers.\n23 If therefore the whole church come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in unlearned persons or infidels, will they not say that you are mad?\n24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or an unlearned person, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all.\n25 The secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so, falling down on his face, he will adore God, affirming that God is among you indeed.\n26 How is it then, brethren? When you come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation: let all things be done to edification.\n27 If any speak with a tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and in course, and let one interpret.\n28 But if there be no interpreter, let him hold his peace in the church, and speak to himself and to God.\n29 And let the prophets speak, two or three; and let the rest judge.\n30 But if any thing be revealed to another sitting, let the first hold his peace.\n31 For you may all prophesy one by one; that all may learn, and all may be exhorted:\n32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.\n33 For God is not the God of dissension, but of peace: as also I teach in all the churches of the saints.\n34 Let women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted them to speak, but to be subject, as also the law saith.\n35 But if they would learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is a shame for a woman to speak in the church.\n36 Or did the word of God come out from you? Or came it only unto you?\n37 If any seem to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him know the things that I write to you, that they are the commandments of the Lord.\n38 But if any man know not, he shall not be known.\n39 Wherefore, brethren, be zealous to prophesy; and forbid not to speak with tongues.\n40 But let all things be done decently, and according to order.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then the Son also himself shall be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of 1 Corinthians, chapter 15.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n1 Corinthians Chapter 15\n1 Now I make known unto you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you have received, and wherein you stand;\n2 By which also you are saved, if you hold fast after what manner I preached unto you, unless you have believed in vain.\n3 For I delivered unto you first of all, which I also received: how that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures:\n4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day, according to the scriptures:\n5 And that he was seen by Cephas; and after that by the eleven.\n6 Then he was seen by more than five hundred brethren at once: of whom many remain until this present, and some are fallen asleep.\n7 After that, he was seen by James, then by all the apostles.\n8 And last of all, he was seen also by me, as by one born out of due time.\n9 For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.\n10 But by the grace of God, I am what I am; and his grace in me hath not been void, but I have laboured more abundantly than all they: yet not I, but the grace of God with me.\n11 For whether I, or they, so we preach, and so you have believed.\n12 Now if Christ be preached, that he arose again from the dead, how do some among you say, that there is no resurrection of the dead?\n13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen again.\n14 And if Christ be not risen again, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.\n15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God: because we have given testimony against God, that he hath raised up Christ; whom he hath not raised up, if the dead rise not again.\n16 For if the dead rise not again, neither is Christ risen again.\n17 And if Christ be not risen again, your faith is vain, for you are yet in your sins.\n18 Then they also that are fallen asleep in Christ, are perished.\n19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.\n20 But now Christ is risen from the dead, the firstfruits of them that sleep:\n21 For by a man came death, and by a man the resurrection of the dead.\n22 And as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all shall be made alive.\n23 But every one in his own order: the firstfruits Christ, then they that are of Christ, who have believed in his coming.\n24 Afterwards the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God and the Father, when he shall have brought to nought all principality, and power, and virtue.\n25 For he must reign, until he hath put all his enemies under his feet.\n26 And the enemy death shall be destroyed last: For he hath put all things under his feet. And whereas he saith,\n27 All things are put under him; undoubtedly, he is excepted, who put all things under him.\n28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then the Son also himself shall be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.\n29 Otherwise what shall they do that are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not again at all? why are they then baptized for them?\n30 Why also are we in danger every hour?\n31 I die daily, I protest by your glory, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.\n32 If (according to man) I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what doth it profit me, if the dead rise not again? Let us eat and drink, for to morrow we shall die.\n33 Be not seduced: Evil communications corrupt good manners.\n34 Awake, ye just, and sin not. For some have not the knowledge of God, I speak it to your shame.\n35 But some man will say: How do the dead rise again? or with what manner of body shall they come?\n36 Senseless man, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die first.\n37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be; but bare grain, as of wheat, or of some of the rest.\n38 But God giveth it a body as he will: and to every seed its proper body.\n39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but one is the flesh of men, another of beasts, another of birds, another of fishes.\n40 And there are bodies celestial, and bodies terrestrial: but, one is the glory of the celestial, and another of the terrestrial.\n41 One is the glory of the sun, another the glory of the moon, and another the glory of the stars. For star differeth from star in glory.\n42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it shall rise in incorruption.\n43 It is sown in dishonour, it shall rise in glory. It is sown in weakness, it shall rise in power.\n44 It is sown a natural body, it shall rise a spiritual body. If there be a natural body, there is also a spiritual body, as it is written:\n45 The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit.\n46 Yet that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; afterwards that which is spiritual.\n47 The first man was of the earth, earthly: the second man, from heaven, heavenly.\n48 Such as is the earthly, such also are the earthly: and such as is the heavenly, such also are they that are heavenly.\n49 Therefore as we have borne the image of the earthly, let us bear also the image of the heavenly.\n50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot possess the kingdom of God: neither shall corruption possess incorruption.\n51 Behold, I tell you a mystery. We shall all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be changed.\n52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall rise again incorruptible: and we shall be changed.\n53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption; and this mortal must put on immortality.\n54 And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.\n55 O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?\n56 Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law.\n57 But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.\n58 Therefore,

opened to him the cities, and met him: for king Alexander had ordered them to go forth to meet him, because he was his father in law.\n3 Now when Ptolemee entered into the cities, he put garrisons of soldiers in every city.\n4 And when he came near to Azotus, they shewed him the temple of Dagon that was burnt with fire, and Azotus, and the suburbs thereof that were destroyed, and the bodies that were cast abroad, and the graves of them that were slain in the battle, which they had made near the way.\n5 And they told the king that Jonathan had done these things, to make him odious: but the king held his peace.\n6 And Jonathan came to meet the king at Joppe with glory, and they saluted one another, and they lodged there.\n7 And Jonathan went with the king as far as the river, called Eleutherus: and he returned into Jerusalem.\n8 And king Ptolemee got the dominion of the cities by the sea side, even to Seleucia, and he devised evil designs against Alexander.\n9 And he sent ambassadors to Demetrius, saying: Come, let us make a league between us, and I will give thee my daughter whom Alexander hath, and thou shalt reign in the kingdom of thy father.\n10 For I repent that I have given him my daughter: for he hath sought to kill me.\n11 And he slandered him, because he coveted his kingdom.\n12 And he took away his daughter, and gave her to Demetrius, and alienated himself from Alexander, and his enmities were made manifest.\n13 And Ptolemee entered into Antioch, and set two crowns upon his head, that of Egypt, and that of Asia.\n14 Now king Alexander was in Cilicia at that time: because they that were in those places had rebelled.\n15 And when Alexander heard of it, he came to give him battle, and king Ptolemee brought forth his army, and met him with a strong power, and put him to flight.\n16 And Alexander fled into Arabia, there to be protected: and king Ptolemee was exalted.\n17 And Zabdiel the Arabian took off Alexander's head, and sent it to Ptolemee.\n18 And king Ptolemee died the third day after: and they that were in the strong holds were destroyed by them that were within the camp.\n19 And Demetrius reigned in the hundred and sixty-seventh year.\n20 In those days Jonathan gathered together them that were in Judea, to take the castle that was in Jerusalem: and they made many engines of war against it.\n21 Then some wicked men that hated their own nation, went away to king Demetrius, and told him that Jonathan was besieging the castle.\n22 And when he heard it, he was angry: and forthwith he came to Ptolemais, and wrote to Jonathan, that he should not besiege the castle, but should come to him in haste, and speak to him.\n23 But when Jonathan heard this, he bade them besiege it still: and he chose some of the ancients of Israel, and of the priests, and put himself in danger.\n24 And he took gold, and silver, and raiment, and many other presents, and went to the king to Ptolemais, and he found favour in his sight.\n25 And certain wicked men of his nation made complaints against him.\n26 And the king treated him as his predecessor had done before: and he exalted him in the sight of all his friends.\n27 And he confirmed him in the high priesthood, and all the honours he had before, and he made him the chief of his friends.\n28 And Jonathan requested of the king that he would make Judea free from tribute, and the three governments, and Samaria, and the confines thereof: and he promised him three hundred talents.\n29 And the king consented: and he wrote letters to Jonathan of all these things to this effect.\n30 King Demetrius to his brother Jonathan, and to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n31 We send you here a copy of the letter, which we have written to Lasthenes our parent concerning you, that you might know it.\n32 King Demetrius to Lasthenes his parent, greeting.\n33 We have determined to do good to the nation of the Jews who are our friends, and keep the things that are just with us, for their good will which they bear towards us.\n34 We have ratified therefore unto them all the borders of Judea, and the three cities, Apherema, Lydda, and Ramatha, which are added to Judea, out of Samaria, and all their confines, to be set apart to all them that sacrifice in Jerusalem, instead of the payments which the king received of them every year, and for the fruits of the land, and of the trees.\n35 And as for other things that belonged to us of the tithes, and of the tributes, from this time we discharge them of them: the saltpans also, and the crowns that were presented to us.\n36 We give all to them, and nothing hereof shall be revoked from this time forth and for ever.\n37 Now therefore see that thou make a copy of these things, and let it be given to Jonathan, and set upon the holy mountain, in a conspicuous place.\n38 And king Demetrius seeing that the land was quiet before him, and nothing resisted him, sent away all his forces, every man to his own place, except the foreign army, which he had drawn together from the islands of the nations: so all the troops of his fathers hated him.\n39 Now there was one Tryphon who had been of Alexander's party before: who seeing that all the army murmured against Demetrius, went to Emalchuel the Arabian, who brought up Antiochus the son of Alexander.\n40 And he pressed him much to deliver him to him, that he might be king in his father's place: and he told him all that Demetrius had done, and how his soldiers hated him. And he remained there many days.\n41 And Jonathan sent to king Demetrius, desiring that he would cast out them that were in the castle in Jerusalem, and those that were in the strong holds: because they fought against Israel.\n42 And Demetrius sent to Jonathan, saying: I will not only do this for thee, and for thy people, but I will greatly honour thee, and thy nation, when opportunity shall serve.\n43 Now therefore thou shalt do well if thou send me men to help me: for all my army is gone from me.\n44 And Jonathan sent him three thousand valiant men to Antioch: and they came to the king, and the king was very glad of their coming.\n45 And they that were of the city assembled themselves together, to the number of a hundred and twenty thousand men, and would have killed the king.\n46 And the king fled into the palace, and they of the city kept the passages of the city, and began to fight.\n47 And the king called the Jews to his assistance: and they came to him all at once, and they all dispersed themselves through the city.\n48 And they slew in that day a hundred thousand men, and they set fire to the city, and got many spoils that day, and delivered the king.\n49 And they that were of the city saw that the Jews had got the city as they would: and they were discouraged in their minds, and cried to the king, making supplication, and saying:\n50 Grant us peace, and let the Jews cease from assaulting us, and the city.\n51 And they threw down their arms, and made peace, and the Jews were glorified in the sight of the king, and in the sight of all that were in his realm, and were renowned throughout the kingdom, and returned to Jerusalem with many spoils.\n52 So king Demetrius sat in the throne of his kingdom: and the land was quiet before him.\n53 And he falsified all whatsoever he had said, and alienated himself from Jonathan, and did not reward him according to the benefits he had received from him, but gave him great trouble.\n54 And after this Tryphon returned, and with him Antiochus the young boy, who was made king, and put on the diadem.\n55 And there assembled unto him all the hands which Demetrius had sent away, and they fought against Demetrius, who turned his back and fled.\n56 And Tryphon took the elephants, and made himself master of Antioch.\n57 And young Antiochus wrote to Jonathan, saying: I confirm thee in the high priesthood, and I appoint thee ruler over the four cities, and to be one of the king's friends.\n58 And he sent him vessels of gold for his service, and he gave him leave to drink in gold, and to be clothed in purple, and to wear a golden buckle:\n59 And he made his brother Simon governor from the borders of Tyre even to the confines of Egypt.\n60 Then Jonathan went forth and passed through the cities beyond the river: and all the forces of Syria gathered themselves to him to help him, and he came to Ascalon, and they met him honourably out of the city.\n61 And he went from thence to Gaza: and they that were in Gaza shut him out: and he besieged it, and burnt all the suburbs round about, and took the spoils.\n62 And the men of Gaza made supplication to Jonathan, and he gave them the right hand: and he took their sons for hostages, and sent them to Jerusalem: and he went through the country as far as Damascus.\n63 And Jonathan heard that the generals of Demetrius were come treacherously to Cades, which is in Galilee, with a great army, purposing to remove him from the affairs of the kingdom:\n64 And he went against them: but left his brother Simon in the country.\n65 And Simon encamped against Bethsura, and assaulted it many days, and shut them up.\n66 And they desired him to make peace, and he granted it them: and he cast them out from thence, and took the city, and placed a garrison in it.\n67 And Jonathan, and his army encamped by the water of Genesar, and before it was light they were ready in the plain of Asor.\n68 And behold the army of the strangers met him in the plain, and they laid an ambush for him in the mountains: but he went out against them.\n69 And they that lay in ambush arose out of their places, and joined battle.\n70 And all that were on Jonathan's side fled, and none was left of them, but Mathathias the son of Absalom, and Judas the son of Calphi, chief captain of the army.\n71 And Jonathan rent his garments, and cast earth upon his head, and prayed.\n72 And Jonathan turned again to them to battle, and he put them to flight, and they fought.\n73 And they of his part that fled saw this, and they turned again to him, and they all with him pursued the enemies even to Cades to their own camp, and they came even thither.\n74 And there fell of the aliens in that day three thousand men: and Jonathan returned to Jerusalem.\n",

Now the king's sons, being seventy men, were brought up with the chief men of the city.\n7 And when the letters came to them, they took the king's sons, and slew seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him to Jezrahel.\n8 And a messenger came, and told him, saying: They have brought the heads of the king's sons. And he said: Lay ye them in two heaps by the entering in of the gate until the morning.\n9 And when it was light, he went out, and standing said to all the people: You are just: if I conspired against my master, and slew him, who hath slain all these?\n10 See therefore now that there hath not fallen to the ground any of the words of the Lord, which the Lord spoke concerning the house of Achab, and the Lord hath done that which he spoke in the hand of his servant Elias.\n11 So Jehu slew all that were left of the house of Achab in Jezrahel, and all his chief men, and his friends, and his priests, till there were no remains left of him.\n12 And he arose, and went to Samaria: and when he was come to the shepherds' cabin in the way,\n13 He met with the brethren of Ochozias king of Juda, and he said to them: Who are you? And they answered: We are the brethren of Ochozias, and are come down to salute the sons of the king, and the sons of the queen.\n14 And he said: Take them alive. And they took them alive, and killed them at the pit by the cabin, two and forty men, and he left not any of them.\n15 And when he was departed thence, he found Jonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him, and he blessed him. And he said to him: Is thy heart right as my heart is with thy heart? And Jonadab said: It is. If it be, said he, give me thy hand. He gave him his hand. And he lifted him up to him into the chariot,\n16 And he said to him: Come with me, and see my zeal for the Lord. So he made him ride in his chariot,\n17 And brought him into Samaria. And he slew all that were left of Achab in Samaria, to a man, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke by Elias.\n18 And Jehu gathered together all the people, and said to them: Achab worshipped Baal a little, but I will worship him more.\n19 Now therefore call to me all the prophets of Baal, and all his servants, and all his priests: let none be wanting, for I have a great sacrifice to offer to Baal: whosoever shall be wanting shall not live.

And he called,\n21 And he sent into all the borders of Israel, and all the servants of Baal came: there was not one left that did not come. And they went into the temple of Baal: and the house of Baal was filled, from one end to the other.\n22 And he said to them that were over the wardrobe: Bring forth garments for all the servants of Baal. And they brought them forth garments.\n23 And Jehu and Jonadab the son of Rechab went to the temple of Baal, and said to the worshippers of Baal: Search, and see that there be not any with you of the servants of the Lord, but that there be the servants of Baal only.\n24 And they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings: but Jehu had prepared him fourscore men without, and said to them: If any of the men escape, whom I have brought into your hands, he that letteth him go shall answer life for life.\n25 And it came to pass, when the burnt offering was ended, that Jehu commanded his soldiers and captains, saying: Go in, and kill them, let none escape.

And he that went down first into the pond after the motion of the water, was made whole, of whatsoever infirmity he lay under.\n5 And there was a certain man there, that had been eight and thirty years under his infirmity.\n6 Him when Jesus had seen lying, and knew that he had been now a long time, he saith to him: Wilt thou be made whole?\n7 The infirm man answered him: Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pond. For whilst I am coming, another goeth down before me.\n8 Jesus saith to him: Arise, take up thy bed, and walk.\n9 And immediately the man was made whole: and he took up his bed, and walked. And it was the sabbath that day.\n10 The Jews therefore said to him that was healed: It is the sabbath; it is not lawful for thee to take up thy bed.\n11 He answered them: He that made me whole, he said to me, Take up thy bed, and walk.\n12 They asked him therefore: Who is that man who said to thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?\n13 But he who was healed, knew not who it was; for Jesus went aside from the multitude standing in the place.\n14 Afterwards, Jesus findeth him in the temple, and saith to him: Behold thou art made whole: sin no more, lest some worse thing happen to thee.\n15 The man went his way, and told the Jews, that it was Jesus who had made him whole.\n16 Therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, because he did these things on the sabbath.\n17 But Jesus answered them: My Father worketh until now; and I work.\n18 Hereupon therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he did not only break the sabbath, but also said God was his Father, making himself equal to God.\n19 Then Jesus answered, and said to them: Amen, amen, I say unto you, the Son cannot do any thing of himself, but what he seeth the Father doing: for what things soever he doth, these the Son also doth in like manner.\n20 For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things which himself doth: and greater works than these will he shew him, that you may wonder.\n21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and giveth life: so the Son also giveth life to whom he will.\n22 For neither doth the Father judge any man, but hath given all judgment to the Son.\n23 That all men may honour the Son, as they honour the Father. He who honoureth not the Son, honoureth not the Father, who hath sent him.\n24 Amen, amen I say unto you, that he who heareth my word, and believeth him that sent me, hath life everlasting; and cometh not into judgment, but is passed from death to life.\n25 Amen, amen I say unto you, that the hour cometh, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they that hear shall live.\n26 For as the Father hath life in himself, so he hath given the Son also to have life in himself:\n27 And he hath given him power to do judgment, because he is the Son of man.\n28 Wonder not at this; for the hour cometh, wherein all that are in the graves shall hear the voice of the Son of God.\n29 And they that have done good things, shall come forth unto the resurrection of life; but they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of judgment.\n30 I cannot of myself do any thing.

And Demetrius sat upon the throne of his kingdom:\n5 And there came to him the wicked and ungodly men of Israel: And Alcimus was at the head of them, who desired to be made high priest.\n6 And they accused the people to the king, saying: Judas and his brethren have destroyed all thy friends, and he hath driven us out of our land.\n7 Now therefore send some man whom thou trustest, and let him go, and see all the havock he hath made amongst us, and in the king's lands: and let him punish all his friends and their helpers.\n8 Then the king chose Bacchides, one of his friends that ruled beyond the great river in the kingdom, and was faithful to the king: and he sent him,\n9 To see the havock that Judas had made: and the wicked Alcimus he made high priest, and commanded him to take revenge upon the children of Israel.\n10 And they arose, and came with a great army into the land of Juda: and they sent messengers, and spoke to Judas and his brethren with peaceable words deceitfully.\n11 But they gave no heed to their words: for they saw that they were come with a great army.\n12 Then there assembled to Alcimus and Bacchides a company of the scribes to require things that are just:\n13 And first the Assideans that were among the children of Israel, and they sought peace of them.\n14 For they said: One that is a priest of the seed of Aaron is come, he will not deceive us.\n15 And he spoke to them peaceably: and he swore to them, saying: We will do you no harm nor your friends.\n16 And they believed him. And he took threescore of them, and slew them in one day, according to the word that is written:\n17 The flesh of thy saints, and the blood of them they have shed round about Jerusalem, and there was none to bury them.\n18 Then fear and trembling fell upon all the people: for they said: There is no truth, nor justice among them: for they have broken the covenant, and the oath which they made.\n19 And Bacchides removed the camp from Jerusalem, and pitched in Bethzecha: and he sent, and took many of them that were fled away from him, and some of the people he killed, and threw them into a great pit.\n20 Then he committed the country to Alcimus, and left with him troops to help him. So Bacchides went away to the king:\n21 But Alcimus did what he could to maintain his chief priesthood.\n22 And they that disturbed the people resorted to him, and they got the land of Juda into their power, and did much hurt in Israel.\n23 And Judas saw all the evils that Alcimus, and they that were with him, did to the children of Israel, much more than the Gentiles.\n24 And he went out into all the coasts of Juda round about, and took vengeance upon the men that had revolted, and they ceased to go forth any more into the country.\n25 And Alcimus saw that Judas, and they that were with him prevailed: and he knew that he could not stand against them, and he went back to the king, and accused them of many crimes.\n26 And the king sent Nicanor one of his principal lords, who was a great enemy to Israel: and he commanded him to destroy the people.\n27 And Nicanor came to Jerusalem with a great army, and he sent to Judas and to his brethren deceitfully with friendly words,\n28 Saying: Let there be no fighting between me and you: I will come with a few men to see your faces with peace.\n29 And he came to Judas, and they saluted one another peaceably: and the enemies were prepared to take away Judas by force.\n30 And the thing was known to Judas that he was come to him with deceit: and he was much afraid of him, and would not see his face any more.\n31 And Nicanor knew that his counsel was discovered: and he went out to fight against Judas near Capharsalama.\n32 And there fell of Nicanor's army almost five thousand men, and they fled into the city of David.\n33 And after this Nicanor went up into mount Sion: and some of the priests and the people came out to salute him peaceably, and to shew him the holocausts that were offered for the king.\n34 But he mocked them and despised them, and abused them: and he spoke proudly,\n35 And swore in anger, saying: Unless Judas and his army be delivered into my hands, as soon as ever I return in peace, I will burn this house. And he went out in a great rage.\n36 And the priests went in, and stood before the face of the altar and the temple: and weeping, they said:\n37 Thou, O Lord, hast chosen this house for thy name to be called upon therein, that it might be a house of prayer and supplication for thy people.\n38 Be avenged of this man, and his army, and let them fall by the sword: remember their blasphemies, and suffer them not to continue any longer.\n39 Then Nicanor went out from Jerusalem, and encamped near to Bethoron: and an army of Syria joined him.\n40 But Judas pitched in Adarsa with three thousand men: and Judas prayed, and said:\n41 O Lord, when they that were sent by king Sennacherib blasphemed thee, an angel went out, and slew of them a hundred and eighty-five thousand:\n42 Even so destroy this army in our sight to day, and let the rest know that he hath spoken ill against thy sanctuary: and judge thou him according to his wickedness.\n43 And the armies joined battle on the thirteenth day of the month Adar: and the army of Nicanor was defeated, and he himself was first slain in the battle.\n44 And when his army saw that Nicanor was slain, they threw away their weapons, and fled:\n45 And they pursued after them one day's journey from Adazer, even till ye come to Gazara, and they sounded the trumpets after them with signals.\n46 And they went forth out of all the towns of Judea round about, and they pushed them with the horns, and they turned again to them, and they were all slain with the sword, and there was not left of them so much as one.\n47 And they took the spoils of them for a booty, and they cut off Nicanor's head, and his right hand, which he had proudly stretched out, and they brought it, and hung it up over against Jerusalem.\n48 And the people rejoiced exceedingly, and they spent that day with great joy.\n49 And he ordained that this day should be kept every year, being the thirteenth of the month of Adar.\n50 And the land of Juda was quiet for a short time.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book is the quote \"And David answered the priest, and said to him: Truly, as to what concerneth women, we have refrained ourselves from yesterday and the day before, when we came out, and the vessels of the young men were holy.

left there.\n3 Lo, he came, and sought to take the city and to pillage it: But he was not able, because the design was known to them that were in the city.\n4 And they rose up against him in battle, and he fled away from thence, and departed with great sadness, and returned towards Babylonia.\n5 And whilst he was in Persia, there came one that told him, how the armies that were in the land of Juda were put to flight:\n6 And that Lysias went with a very great power, and was put to flight before the face of the Jews, and that they were grown strong by the armour, and power, and store of spoils, which they had gotten out of the camps which they had destroyed:\n7 And that they had thrown down the abomination which he had set up upon the altar in Jerusalem, and that they had compassed about the sanctuary with high walls as before, and Bethsura also his city.\n8 And it came to pass when the king heard these words, that he was struck with fear, and exceedingly moved: and he laid himself down upon his bed, and fell sick for grief, because it had not fallen out to him as he imagined.\n9 And he remained there many days: for great grief came more and more and more upon him, and he made account that he should die.\n10 And he called for all his friends, and said to them: Sleep is gone from my eyes, and I am fallen away, and my heart is cast down for anxiety.\n11 And I said in my heart: Into how much tribulation am I come, and into what floods of sorrow, wherein now I am: I that was pleasant and beloved in my power!\n12 But now I remember the evils that I have done in Jerusalem, from whence also I took away all the spoils of gold, and of silver that were in it, and I sent to destroy the inhabitants of Juda without cause.\n13 I know therefore that for this cause these evils have found me: and behold I perish with great grief in a strange land.\n14 Then he called Philip, one of his friends, and he made him regent over all his kingdom.\n15 And he gave him the crown, and his robe, and his ring, that he should go to Antiochus his son, and should bring him up for the kingdom.\n16 So king Antiochus died there in the year one hundred and forty-nine.\n17 And Lysias understood that the king was dead, and he set up Antiochus his son to reign, whom he brought up young: and he called his name Eupator.\n18 Now they that were in the castle, had shut up the

Israel joined themselves unto them.\n22 And they went to the king, and said: How long dost thou delay to execute the judgment, and to revenge our brethren?\n23 We determined to serve thy father and to do according to his orders, and obey his edicts:\n24 And for this they of our nation are alienated from us, and have slain as many of us as they could find, and have spoiled our inheritances.\n25

the stronghold of Bethsura:\n27 And unless thou speedily prevent them, they will do greater things than these, and thou shalt not be able to subdue them.\n28 Now when the king heard this, he was angry: and he called together all his friends, and the captains of his army, and them that were over the horsemen.\n29 There came also to him from other realms, and from the islands of the sea hired troops.\n30 And the number of his army was an hundred thousand footmen, and twenty thousand horsemen, and thirty-two elephants, trained to battle.\n31 And they went through Idumea, and approached to Bethsura, and fought many days, and they made engines: but they sallied forth and burnt them with fire, and fought manfully.\n32 And Judas departed from the castle, and removed the camp to Bethzacharam, over against the king's camp.\n33 And the king rose before it was light, and made his troops march on fiercely towards the way of Bethzacharam: and the armies made themselves ready for the battle, and they sounded the trumpets:\n34 And they shewed the elephants the blood of grapes, and mulberries to provoke them to fight.\n35 And they distributed the beasts by the legions: and there stood by every elephant a thousand men in coats of mail, and with helmets of brass on their heads: and five hundred horsemen set in order were chosen for every beast.\n36 These before the time

and engines upon them: and upon every one thirty-two valiant men, who fought from above; and an Indian to rule the beast.\n38 And the rest of the horsemen he placed on this side and on that side at the two wings, with trumpets to stir up the army, and to hasten them forward that stood thick together in the legions thereof.\n39 Now when the sun shone upon the shields of gold, and of brass, the mountains glittered therewith, and they shone like lamps of fire.\n40 And part of the king's army was distinguished by the high mountains, and the other part by the low places: and they marched on warily and orderly.\n41 And all the inhabitants of the land were moved at the noise of their multitude, and the marching of the company, and the rattling of the armour, for the army was exceeding great and strong.\n42 And Judas and his army drew near for battle: and there fell of the king's army six hundred men.\n43 And Eleazar the son of Saura saw one of the beasts harnessed with the king's harness: and it was higher than the other beasts: and it seemed to him that the king was on it:\n44 And he exposed himself to deliver his people and to get himself an everlasting name.\n45 And he ran up to it boldly in the midst of the legion, killing on the right hand, and on the left, and they fell by him on this side and that side.\n46 And he went between the feet of the elephant, and put himself under it: and slew it, and it fell to the ground upon him, and he died there.\n47 Then they seeing the strength of the king and the fierceness of his army, turned away from them.\n48 But the king's army went up against them to Jerusalem: and the king's army pitched their tents against Judea and mount Sion.\n49 And he made peace with them that were in Bethsura: and they came forth out of the city, because they had no victuals, being shut up there, for it was the year of rest to the land.\n50 And the king took Bethsura: and he placed there a garrison to keep it.\n51 And he turned his army against the sanctuary for many days: and he set up there battering slings, and engines and instruments to cast fire, and engines to cast stones and javelins, and pieces to shoot arrows, and slings.\n52 And they also made engines against their engines, and they fought for many days.\n53 But there were no victuals in the city, because it was the seventh year: and such as had stayed in Judea of them that came from among the nations, had eaten the residue of all that which had been stored up.\n54 And there remained in the holy places but a few, for the famine had prevailed over them: and they were dispersed every man to his own place.\n55 Now Lysias heard that Philip, whom king Antiochus while he lived had appointed to bring up his son Antiochus, and to reign, to be king,\n56 Was returned from Persia, and Media, with the army that went with him, and that he sought to take upon him the affairs of the kingdom:\n57 Wherefore he made haste to go, and say to the king and to the captains of the army: We decay daily, and our provision of victuals is small, and the place that we lay siege to is strong, and it lieth upon us to take order for the affairs of the kingdom.\n58 Now therefore let us come to an agreement with these men, and make peace with them and with all their nation.\n59 And let us covenant with them, that they may live according to their own laws as before. For because of our despising their laws, they have been provoked, and have done all these things.\n60 And the proposal was acceptable in the sight of the king, and of the princes: and he sent to them to make peace: and they accepted of it.\n61 And the king and the princes swore to them: and they came out of the stronghold.\n62 Then the king entered into mount Sion, and saw the strength of the place: and he quickly broke the oath that he had taken, and gave commandment to throw down the wall round about.\n63 And he departed in haste, and returned to Antioch, where he found Philip master of the city: and he fought against him, and took the city.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"And the meats of his table, and the dwelling places of his servants, and the attendance of his officers, and their apparel, his cupbearers also, and their garments, and the victims which he offered in the house of the Lord: there was no more spirit in her, she was so astonished.\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of 2 Chronicles, chapter 9.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n2 Chronicles Chapter 9\n1 And when the queen of Saba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to try him with hard questions at Jerusalem, with great riches, and camels, which carried spices, and abundance of gold, and precious stones.

leadeth to Galgal, and they camped in Masaloth, which is in Arabella: and they made themselves masters of it, and slew many people.\n3 In the first month of the hundred and fifty-second year they brought the army to Jerusalem:\n4 And they arose, and went to Berea with twenty thousand men, and two thousand horsemen.\n5 Now Judas had pitched his tents in Laisa, and three thousand chosen men with him:\n6 And they saw the multitude of the army that they were many, and they were seized with great fear: and many withdrew themselves out of the camp, and there remained of them no more than eight hundred men.\n7 And Judas saw that his army slipped away, and the battle pressed upon him, and his heart was cast down: because he had not time to gather them together, and he was discouraged.\n8 Then he said to them that remained: Let us arise, and go against our enemies, if we may be able to fight against them.\n9 But they dissuaded him, saying: We shall not be able, but let us save our lives now, and return to our brethren, and then we will fight against them: for we are but few.\n10 Then Judas said: God forbid we should do this thing, and flee away from them: but if our time be come, let us die manfully for our brethren, and let us not stain our glory.\n11 And the army removed out of the camp, and they stood over against them: and the horsemen were divided into two troops, and the slingers, and the archers went before the army, and they that were in the front were all men of valour.\n12 And Bacchides was in the right wing, and the legion drew near on two sides, and they sounded the trumpets:\n13 And they also were on Judas' side, even they also cried out, and the earth shook at the noise of the armies: and the battle was fought from morning even unto the evening.\n14 And Judas perceived that the stronger part of the army of Bacchides was on the right side, and all the stout of heart came together with him:\n15 And the right wing was discomfited by them, and he pursued them even to the mount Azotus.\n16 And they that were in the left wing saw that the right wing was discomfited, and they followed after Judas, and them that were with him, at their back:\n17 And the battle was hard fought, and there fell many wounded of the one side and of the other.\n18 And Judas was slain, and the rest fled away.\n19 And Jonathan and Simon took Judas their brother, and buried him in the sepulchre of their fathers in the city of Modin.\n20 And all the people of Israel bewailed him with great lamentation, and they mourned for him many days.\n21 And said: How is the mighty man fallen, that saved the people of Israel!\n22 But the rest of the words of the wars of Judas, and of the noble acts that he did, and of his greatness, are not written: for they were very many.\n23 And it came to pass after the death of Judas, that the wicked began to put forth their heads in all the confines of Israel, and all the workers of iniquity rose up.\n24 In those days there was a very great famine, and they and all their country yielded to Bacchides.\n25 And Bacchides chose the wicked men, and made them lords of the country:\n26 And they sought out, and made diligent search after the friends of Judas, and brought them to Bacchides, and he took vengeance of them, and abused them.\n27 And there was a great tribulation in Israel, such as was not since the day, that there was no prophet seen in Israel.\n28 And all the friends of Judas came together, and said to Jonathan:\n29 Since thy brother Judas died, there is not a man like him to go forth against our enemies, Bacchides, and them that are the enemies of our nation.\n30 Now therefore we have chosen thee this day to be our prince, and captain in his stead to fight our battles.\n31 So Jonathan took upon him the government at that time, and rose up in the place of Judas his brother.\n32 And Bacchides had knowledge of it, and sought to kill him.\n33 And Jonathan and Simon his brother, knew it, and all that were with them: and they fled into the desert of Thecua, and they pitched by the water of the lake of Asphar,\n34 And Bacchides understood it, and he came himself with all his army over the Jordan on the sabbath day.\n35 And Jonathan sent his brother a captain of the people, to desire the Nabutheans his friends, that they would lend them their equipage, which was copious.\n36 And the children of Jambri came forth out of Madaba, and took John, and all that he had, and went away with them.\n37 After this it was told Jonathan, and Simon his brother, that the children of Jambri made a great marriage, and were bringing the bride out of Madaba, the daughter of one of the great princes of Chanaan, with great pomp.\n38 And the remembered the blood of John their brother: and they went up, and hid themselves under the covert of the mountain.\n39 And they lifted up their eyes, and saw: and behold a tumult, and great preparation: and the bridegroom came forth, and his friends, and his brethren to meet them with timbrels, and musical instruments, and many weapons.\n40 And they rose up against them from the place where they lay in ambush, and slew them, and there fell many wounded, and the rest fled into the mountains, and they took all their spoils:\n41 And the marriage was turned into mourning, and the noise of their musical instruments into lamentation.\n42 And they took revenge for the blood of their brother: and they returned to the bank of the Jordan.\n43 And Bacchides heard it, and he came on the sabbath day even to the bank of the Jordan with a great power.\n44 And Jonathan said to his company: Let us arise, and fight against our enemies: for it is not now as yesterday, and the day before.\n45 And behold the battle is before us, and the water of the Jordan

And Amnon said to him: I am in love with Thamar the sister of my brother Absalom.\n5 And Jonadab said to him: Lie down upon thy bed, and feign thyself sick: and when thy father shall come to visit thee, say to him: Let my sister Thamar, I pray thee, come to me, to give me to eat, and to make me a mess, that I may eat it at her hand.\n6 So Amnon lay down, and made as if he were sick: and when the king came to visit him, Amnon said to the king: I pray thee let my sister Thamar come, and make in my sight two little messes, that I may eat at her hand.\n7 Then David sent home to Thamar, saying: Come to the house of thy brother Amnon, and make him a mess.\n8 And Thamar came to the house of Amnon her brother: but he was laid down: and she took meal and tempered it: and dissolving it in his sight she made little messes.\n9 And taking what she had boiled, she poured it out, and set it before him, but he would not eat: and Amnon said: Put out all persons from me. And when they had put all persons out,\n10 Amnon said to Thamar: Bring the mess into the chamber, that I may eat at thy hand. And Thamar took the little messes which she had made, and brought them in to her brother Amnon in the chamber.\n11 And when she had presented him the meat, he took hold of her, and said: Come lie with me, my sister.\n12 She answered him: Do not so, my brother, do not force me: for no such thing must be done in Israel. Do not thou this folly.\n13 For I shall not be able to bear my shame, and thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel: but rather speak to the king, and he will not deny me to thee.\n14 But he would not hearken to her prayers, but being stronger overpowered her and lay with her.\n15 Then Amnon hated her with an exceeding great hatred: so that the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her before, And Amnon said to her: Arise, and get thee gone.\n16 She answered him: This evil which now thou dost against me, in driving me away, is greater than that which thou didst before. And he would not hearken to her:\n17 But calling the servants that ministered to him, he said: Thrust this woman out from me: and shut the door after her.\n18 And she was clothed with along robe: for the king's daughters that were virgins, used such kind of garments.

And when he pressed him, and he would not go, he blessed him.\n26 And Absalom said: If thou wilt not come, at least let my brother Amnon, I beseech thee, come with us.

And no one durst withstand them, for the fear of their power had gone through every people.\n3 And the judges of the provinces, and the governors, and lieutenants, and every one in dignity, that presided over every place and work, extolled the Jews for fear of Mardochai:\n4 For they knew him to be prince of the palace, and to have great power: and the fame of his name increased daily, and was spread abroad through all men's mouths.\n5 So the Jews made a great slaughter of their enemies, and killed them, repaying according to what they had prepared to do to them:\n6 Insomuch that even in Susan they killed five hundred men, besides the ten sons of Aman the Agagite, the enemy of the Jews: whose names are these:\n7 Pharsandatha, and Delphon, and Esphatha,\n8 And Phoratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,\n9 And Phermesta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Jezatha.\n10 And when they had slain them, they would not touch the spoils of their goods.\n11 And presently the number of them that were killed in Susan was brought to the king.\n12 And he said to the queen: The Jews have killed five hundred men in the city of Susan, besides the ten sons of Aman: how many dost thou think they have slain in all the provinces? What askest thou more, and what wilt thou have me to command to be done?\n13 And she answered: If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews, to do to morrow in Susan as they have done to day, and that the ten sons of Aman may be hanged upon gibbets.\n14 And the king commanded that it should be so done. And forthwith the edict was hung up in Susan, and the ten sons of Aman were hanged.\n15 And on the fourteenth day of the month Adar the Jews gathered themselves together, and they killed in Susan three hundred men: but they took not their substance.\n16 Moreover through all the provinces which were subject to the king's dominion the Jews stood for their lives, and slew their enemies and persecutors: insomuch that the number of them that were Billed amounted to seventy-five thousand, and no man took any of their goods.\n17 Now the thirteenth day of the month Adar was the first day with them all of the slaughter, and on the fourteenth day they left off. Which they ordained to be kept holy day, so that all times hereafter they should celebrate it with feasting, joy, and banquets.\n18 But they that were killing in the city of Susan, were employed in the slaughter on the thirteenth and fourteenth day of the same month: and on the fifteenth day they rested. And therefore they appointed that day to be a holy day of feasting and gladness.\n19 But those Jews that dwelt in towns not walled and in villages, appointed the fourteenth day of the month Adar for banquets and gladness, so as to rejoice on that day, and send one another portions of their banquets and meats.\n20 And Mardochai wrote all these things, and sent them comprised in letters to the Jews that abode in all the king's provinces, both those that lay near and those afar off,\n21 That they should receive the fourteenth and fifteenth day of the month Adar for holy days, and always at the return of the year should celebrate them with solemn honour:\n22 Because on those days the Jews revenged themselves of their enemies, and their mourning and sorrow were turned into mirth and joy, and that these should be days of feasting and gladness, in which they should send one to another portions of meats; and should give gifts to the poor.\n23 And the Jews undertook to observe with solemnity all they had begun to do at that time, which Mardochai by letters had commanded to be done.\n24 For Aman, the son of Amadathi of the race of Agag, the enemy and adversary of the Jews, had devised evil against them, to kill them and destroy them: and had cast Phur, that is, the lot.\n25 And afterwards Esther went in to the king, beseeching him that his endeavours might be made void by the king's letters: and the evil that he had intended against the Jews, might return upon his own head. And so both he and his sons were hanged upon gibbets.\n26 And since that time these days are called Phurim, that is, of lots: because Phur, that is, the lot, was cast into the urn. And all things that were done, are contained in the volume of this epistle, that is, of this book:\n27 And the things that they suffered, and that were afterwards changed, the Jews took upon themselves and their seed, and upon all that had a mind to be joined to their religion, so that it should be lawful for none to pass these days without solemnity: which the writing testifieth, and certain times require, as the years continually succeed one another.\n28 These are the days which shall never be forgot: and which all provinces in the whole world shall celebrate throughout all generations: neither is there any city wherein the days of Phurim, that is, of lots, must not be observed by the Jews, and by their posterity, which is bound to these ceremonies.\n29 And Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mardochai the Jew, wrote also a second epistle, that with all diligence this day should be established a festival for the time to come.\n30 And they sent to all the Jews that were in the hundred and twenty-seven provinces of king Assuerus, that they should have peace, and receive truth,\n31 And observe the days of lots, and celebrate them with joy in their proper

Bethulia.\n2 Now there were in his troops a hundred and twenty thousand footmen, and two and twenty thousand horsemen, besides the preparations of those men who had been taken, and who had been brought away out of the provinces and cities of all the youth.\n3 All these prepared themselves together to fight against the children of Israel, and they came by the hillside to the top, which looketh toward Dothain, from the place which is called Behlma, unto Chelmon, which is over against Esdrelon.\n4 But the children of Israel, when they saw the multitude of them, prostrated themselves upon the ground, putting ashes upon their heads, praying with one accord, that the God of Israel would shew his mercy upon his people.\n5 And taking their arms of war, they posted themselves at the places, which by a narrow pathway lead directly between the mountains, and they guarded them all day and night.\n6 Now Holofernes, in going round about, found that the fountains which supplied them with water, ran through an aqueduct without the city on the south side: and he commanded their aqueduct to he cut off.\n7 Nevertheless there were springs not far from the walls, out of which they were seen secretly to draw water, to refresh themselves a little rather than to drink their fill.\n8 But the children of Ammon and Moab came to Holofernes, saying: The children of Israel trust not in their spears, nor in their arrows, but the mountains are their defense, and the steep hires and precipices guard them.\n9 Wherefore that thou mayst overcome them without joining battle, set guards at the springs that they may not draw water out of them, and thou shalt destroy them without sword, or at least being wearied out they will yield up their city, which they suppose, because it is situate in the mountains, to be impregnable.\n10 And these words pleased Holofernes, and his officers, and he placed all round about a hundred men at every spring.\n11 And when they had kept this watch for full twenty days, the cisterns, and the reserve of waters failed among all the inhabitants of Bethulia, so that there was not within the city, enough to satisfy them, no not for one day, for water was daily given out to the people by measure.\n12 Then all the men and women, young men, and children, gathering themselves together to Ozias, all together with one voice,\n13 Said: God be judge between us and thee, for thou hast done evil against us, in that thou wouldst not speak peaceably with the Assyrians, and for this cause God hath sold us into their hands.\n14 And therefore there is no one to help us, while we are cast down before their eyes in thirst, and sad destruction.\n15 And now assemble ye all that are in the city, that we may of our own accord yield ourselves all up to the people of Holofernes.\n16 For it is better, that being captives we should live and bless the Lord, than that we should die, and be a reproach to all flesh, after we have seen our wives and our infants die before our eyes.\n17 We call to witness this day heaven and earth, and the God of our fathers, who taketh vengeance upon us according to our sins, conjuring you to deliver now the city into the hand of the army of Holofernes, that our end may be short by the edge of the sword, which is made longer by the drought of thirst.\n18 And when they had said these things, there was great weeping and lamentation of all in the assembly, and for many hours with one voice they cried to God, saying:\n19 We have sinned with our fathers we have done unjustly, we have commited iniquity:\n20 Have thou mercy on us, because thou art good, or punish our iniquities by chastising us thyself, and deliver not them that trust in thee to a people that knoweth not thee,\n21 That they may not say among the

Now there was much grass in the place. The men therefore sat down, in number about five thousand.\n11 And Jesus took the loaves: and when he had given thanks, he distributed to them that were set down. In like manner also of the fishes, as much as they would.\n12 And when they were filled, he said to his disciples: Gather up the fragments that remain, lest they be lost.\n13 They gathered up therefore, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above to them that had eaten.\n14 Now those men, when they had seen what a miracle Jesus had done, said: This is of a truth the prophet, that is to come into the world.\n15 Jesus therefore, when he knew that they would come to take him by force, and make him king, fled again into the mountain himself alone.\n16 And when evening was come, his disciples went down to the sea.\n17 And when they had gone up into a ship, they went over the sea to Capharnaum; and it was now dark, and Jesus was not come unto them.\n18 And the sea arose, by reason of a great wind that blew.\n19 When they had rowed therefore about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking upon the sea, and drawing nigh to the ship, and they were afraid.\n20 But he saith to them: It is I; be not afraid.\n21 They were willing therefore to take him into the ship; and presently the ship was at the land to which they were going.\n22 The next day, the multitude that stood on the other side of the sea, saw that there was no other ship there but one, and that Jesus had not entered into the ship with his disciples, but that his disciples were gone away alone.\n23 But other ships came in from Tiberias; nigh unto the place where they had eaten the bread, the Lord giving thanks.\n24 When therefore the multitude saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they took shipping, and came to Capharnaum, seeking for Jesus.\n25 And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him: Rabbi, when camest thou hither?\n26 Jesus answered them, and said: Amen, amen I say to you, you seek me, not because you have seen miracles, but because you did eat of the loaves, and were filled.\n27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that which endureth unto life everlasting, which the Son of man will give you.

How then saith he, I came down from heaven?\n43 Jesus therefore answered, and said to them: Murmur not among yourselves.\n44 No man can come to me, except the Father, who hath sent me, draw him; and I will raise him up in the last day.\n45 It is written in the prophets: And they shall all be taught of God.

The words that I have spoken to you, are spirit and life.\n65 But there are some of you that believe not.

And the Levite the husband of the woman that was killed, being asked, how so great a wickedness had been committed,\n4 Answered: I came into Gabaa of Benjamin with my wife, and there I lodged:\n5 And behold the men of that city in the night beset the house wherein I was, intending to kill me, and abused my wife with an incredible fury of lust, so that at last she died.\n6 And I took her and cut her in pieces, and sent the, parts into all the borders of your possession: because there never was so heinous a crime, and so great an abomination committed in Israel.\n7 You are all here, O children of Israel, determine what you ought to do.\n8 And all the people standing, answered as by the voice of one man: We will not return to our tents, neither shall any one of us go into his own house:\n9 But this we will do in common against Gabaa:\n10 We will take ten men of a hundred out of all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred out of a thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand, to bring victuals for the army, that we might fight against Gabaa of Benjamin, and render to it for its wickedness, what it deserveth.\n11 And all Israel were gathered together against the city, as one man, with one mind, and one counsel:\n12 And they sent messengers to all the tribe of Benjamin to say to them: Why hath so great an abomination been found among you?\n13 Deliver up the men of Gabaa, that have committed this heinous crime, that they may die, and the evil may be taken away out of Israel. But they would not hearken to the proposition of their brethren the children of Israel:\n14 But out of all the cities which were of their lot, they gathered themselves together into Gabaa, to aid them, and to fight against the whole people of Israel.\n15 And there were found of Benjamin five and twenty thousand men that drew the sword, besides the inhabitants of Gabaa,\n16 Who were seven hundred most valiant men, fighting with the left hand as well as with the right: and slinging stones so sure that they could hit even a hair, and not miss by the stone's going on either side.\n17 Of the men of Israel also, beside the children of Benjamin, were found four hundred thousand that drew swords, and were prepared to fight.\n18 And they arose and came to the house of God, that is, to Silo: and they consulted God, and said: Who shall be in our army the first to go to the battle against the children of Benjamin? And the Lord answered them: Let Juda be your leader.\n19 And forthwith the children of Israel rising in the morning, camped by Gabaa:\n20 And going out from thence to fight against Benjamin, began to assault the city.\n21 And the children of Benjamin coming out of Gabaa, slew of the children of Israel that day two and twenty thousand men.\n22 Again Israel trusting in their strength and their number, set their army in array in the same place, where they had fought before:\n23 Yet so that they first went up and wept before the Lord until night: and consulted him, and said: Shall I go out any more to fight against the children of Benjamin my brethren, or not? And he answered them: Go up against them, and join battle.\n24 And when the children of Israel went out the next day to fight against the children of Benjamin,\n25 The children of Benjamin sallied forth out of the gates of Gabaa: and meeting them made so great a slaughter of them, as to kill eighteen thousand men that drew the sword.\n26 Wherefore all the children of Israel came to the house of God, and sat and wept before the Lord: and they fasted that day till the evening, and offered to him holocausts, and victims of peace offerings,\n27 And inquired of him concerning their state. At that time the ark of the covenant of the Lord was there,\n28 And Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron was over the house. So they consulted the Lord and said: Shall we go out any more to fight against the children of Benjamin our brethren, or shall we cease? And the Lord said to them: Go up, for to morrow I will deliver them into your hands.\n29 And the children of Israel set ambushes round about the city of Gabaa:\n30 And they drew up their army against Benjamin the third time, as they had done the first and second.\n31 And the children of Benjamin boldly issued out of the city, and seeing their enemies flee, pursued them a long way, so as to wound and kill some of them, as they had done the first and second day, whilst they fled by two highways, whereof one goeth up to Bethel, and the other to Gabaa, and they slew about thirty men:\n32 For they thought to cut them off, as they did before. But they artfully feigning a flight, designed to draw them away from the city, and by their seeming to flee to bring them to the highways aforesaid.\n33 Then all the children of Israel rising up out of the places where they were, set their army in battle array, in the place which is called Baalthamar. The ambushes also which were about the city, began by little and little to come forth,\n34 And to march from the west side of the city. And other ten thousand men chosen out of all Israel attacked the inhabitants of the city. And the battle grew hot against the children of Benjamin: and they understood not that present death threatened them on every side.\n35 And the Lord defeated them before the children of Israel, and they slew of them in that day five and twenty thousand, and one hundred, all fighting men and that drew the sword.\n36 But the children of Benjamin when they saw themselves to be too weak, began to flee. Which the children of Israel seeing, gave them place to flee, that they might come to the ambushes that were prepared, which they had set near the city.\n37 And they that were in ambush arose on a sudden out of their coverts, and whilst Benjamin turned their backs to the slayers, went into the city, and smote it with the edge of the sword.\n38 Now the children of Israel had given a sign to them, whom they had laid in ambushes, that after they had taken the city, they should make a fire: that by the smoke rising on high, they might shew that the city was taken.\n39 And when the children of Israel saw this in the battle (for the children of Benjamin thought they fled and pursued them vigorously, killing thirty men of their army)\n40 And perceived as it were a pillar of smoke rise up from the city; and Benjamin looking back, saw that the city was taken, and that the flames ascended on high:\n41 They that before had made as if they fled, turning their faces stood bravely against them; which the children of Benjamin seeing, turned their backs,\n42 And began to go towards the way of the desert, the enemy pursuing them thither also. And they that fired the city came also out to meet them.\n43 And so it was, that they were slain on both sides by the enemies, and there was no rest of their men dying. They fell and were beaten down on the east side of the city Gabaa.\n44 And they that were slain in the same place were eighteen thousand men, all most valiant soldiers.\n45 And when they that remained of Benjamin saw this, they fled into the wilderness and made towards the rock that is called Remmon. In that flight, also as they were straggling and going different ways, they slew of them five thousand men. And as they went farther, they still pursued them, and slew also other two thousand.\n46 And so it came to pass, that all that were slain of Benjamin in divers places, were five and twenty thousand fighting men, most valiant for war.\n47 And there remained of all the number of Benjamin only six hundred men that were able to escape, and flee to the wilderness: and they abode in the rock Remmon four months.\n48 But the children of Israel returning, put all the remains of the city to the sword, both men and beasts, and all the cities and villages of Benjamin were consumed with devouring flames.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Verse 17 from chapter 4 in Luke?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Luke 4:17 from the New Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"And the book of Isaias the prophet was delivered unto him.

chapter 3.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\n1 Maccabees Chapter 3\n1 Then his son Judas, called Machabeus, rose up in his stead.\n2 And all his brethren helped him, and all they that had joined themselves to his father, and they fought with cheerfulness the battle of Israel.\n3 And he got his people great honour, and put on a breastplate as a giant, and girt his warlike armour about him in battles, and protected the camp with his sword.\n4 In his acts he was like a lion, and like a lion's whelp roaring for his prey.\n5 And he pursued the wicked and sought them out, and them that troubled his people he burnt with fire:\n6 And his enemies were driven away for fear of him, and all the workers of iniquity were troubled: and salvation prospered in his hand.\n7 And he grieved many kings, and made Jacob glad with his works, and his memory is blessed for ever.\n8 And he went through the cities of Juda, and destroyed the wicked out of them, and turned away wrath from Israel.\n9 And he was renowned even to the utmost part of the earth, and he gathered them that were perishing.\n10 And Apollonius gathered together the Gentiles, and a numerous and great army from Samaria, to make war against Israel.\n11 And Judas understood it, and went forth to meet him: and he overthrew him, and killed him: and many fell down slain, the rest fled away.\n12 And he took their spoils, and Judas took the sword of Apollonius, and fought with it all his lifetime.\n13 And Seron captain of the army of Syria heard that Judas had assembled a company of the faithful, and a congregation with him,\n14 And he said: I will get me a name, and will be glorified in the kingdom, and will overthrow Judas, and those that are with him, that have despised the edict of the king.\n15 And he made himself ready: and the host of the wicked went up with him, strong succours, to be revenged of the children of Israel.\n16 And they approached even as far as Bethoron: and Judas went forth to meet him, with a small company.\n17 But when they saw the army coming to meet them, they said to Judas: How shall we, being few, be able to fight against so great a multitude and so strong, and we are ready to faint with fasting to day?\n18 And Judas said: It is an easy matter for many to be shut up in the hands of a few: and there is no difference in the sight of the God of heaven to deliver with a great multitude, or with a small company:\n19 For the success of war is not in the multitude of the army, but strength cometh from heaven.\n20 They come against us with an insolent multitude, and with pride, to destroy us, and our wives, and our children, and to take our spoils.\n21 But we will fight for our lives and our laws:\n22 And the Lord himself will overthrow them before our face: but as for you, fear them not.\n23 And as soon as he had made an end of speaking, he rushed suddenly upon them: and Seron and his host were overthrown before him:\n24 And he pursued him by the descent of Bethoron even to the plain, and there fell of them eight hundred men, and the rest fled into the land of the Philistines.\n25 And the fear of Judas and of his brethren, and the dread of them fell upon all the nations round about them.\n26 And his fame came to the king, and all nations told of the battles of Judas.\n27 Now when king Antiochus heard these words, he was angry in his mind: and he sent and gathered the forces of all his kingdom, an exceeding strong army.\n28 And he opened his treasury, and gave out pay to the army for a year: and he commanded them, that they should be ready for all things.\n29 And he perceived that the money of his treasures failed, and that the tributes of the country were small because of the dissension, and the evil that he had brought upon the land, that he might take away the laws of old times:\n30 And he feared that he should not have as formerly enough, for charges and gifts, which he had given before with a liberal hand: for he had abounded more than the kings that had been before him.\n31 And he was greatly perplexed in mind, and purposed to go into Persia, and to take tributes of the countries, and to gather much money.\n32 And he left Lysias, a nobleman of the blood royal, to oversee the affairs of the kingdom, from the river Euphrates even to the river of Egypt:\n33 And to bring up his son Antiochus, till he came again.\n34 And he delivered to him half the army, and the elephants: and he gave him charge concerning all that he would have done, and concerning the inhabitants of Judea, and Jerusalem:\n35 And that he should send an army against them, to destroy and root out the strength of Israel, and the remnant of Jerusalem, and to take away the memory of them from that place:\n36 And that he should settle strangers to dwell in all their coasts, and divide their land by lot.\n37 So the king took the half of the army that remained, and went forth from Antioch the chief city of his kingdom, in the hundred and forty-seventh year: and he passed over the river Euphrates, and went through the higher countries.\n38 Then Lysias chose Ptolemee the son of Dorymenus, and Nicanor, and Gorgias, mighty men of the king's friends.\n39 And he sent with them forty thousand men, and seven thousand horsemen: to go into the land of Juda, and to destroy it according to the king's orders.\n40 So they went forth with all their power, and came, and pitched near Emmaus in the plain country.\n41 And the merchants of the countries heard the fame of them: and they took silver and gold in abundance, and servants: and they came into the camp, to buy the children of Israel for slaves: and there were joined to them the forces of Syria, and of the land of the strangers.\n42 And Judas and his brethren saw that evils were multiplied, and that the armies approached to their borders: and they knew the orders the king had given to destroy the people and utterly abolish them.\n43 And they said every man to his neighbour: Let us raise up the low condition of our people, and let us fight for our people, and our sanctuary.\n44 And the assembly was gathered that they might be ready for battle: and that they might pray, and ask mercy and compassion.\n45 Now Jerusalem was not inhabited, but was like a desert: there was none of her children that went in or out: and the sanctuary was trodden down: and the children of strangers were in the castle, there was the habitation of the Gentiles: and joy was taken away from Jacob, and the pipe and harp ceased there.\n46 And they assembled together, and came to Maspha over against Jerusalem: for in Maspha was a place of prayer heretofore in Israel.\n47 And they fasted that day, and put on haircloth, and put ashes upon their heads: and they rent their garments:\n48 And they laid open the books of the law, in which the Gentiles searched for the likeness of their idols:\n49 And they brought the priestly ornaments, and the firstfruits and tithes, and stirred up the Nazarites that had fulfilled their days:\n50 And they cried with a loud voice toward heaven, saying: What shall we do with these, and whither shall we carry them?\n51 For thy holies are trodden down, and are profaned, and thy priests are in mourning, and are brought low.\n52 And behold the nations are come together against us to destroy us: thou knowest what they intend against us.\n53 How shall we be able to stand before their face, unless thou, O God, help us?\n54 Then they sounded with trumpets, and cried out with a loud voice.\n55 And after this Judas appointed captains over the people, over thousands, and over hundreds, and over fifties, and over tens.\n56 And he said to them that were building houses, or had betrothed wives, or were planting vineyards, or were fearful, that they should return every man to his house, according to the law.\n57 So they removed the camp, and pitched on the south side of Emmaus.\n58 And Judas said: Gird yourselves, and be valiant men, and be ready against the morning, that you may fight with these nations that are assembled against us to destroy us and our sanctuary.\n59 For it is better for us to die in battle, than to see the evils of our nation, and of the holies:\n60 Nevertheless as it shall be the will of God in heaven so be it done.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "From which book and what chapter does \"And there was nothing else in the

the children of Israel to Jerusalem, to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, which is Sion.\n3 And all the men of Israel came to the king in the solemn day of the seventh month.\n4 And when all the ancients of Israel were come, the Levites took up the ark,\n5 And brought it in, together with all the furniture of the tabernacle. And the priests with the Levites carried the vessels of the sanctuary, which were in the tabernacle.\n6 And king Solomon and all the assembly of Israel, and all that were gathered together before the ark, sacrificed rams, and oxen without number: so great was the multitude of the victims.\n7 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, that is, to the oracle of the temple, into the holy of holies under the wings of the cherubims:\n8 So that the cherubims spread their wings over the place, in which the ark was set, and covered the ark itself and its staves.\n9 Now the ends of the staves wherewith the ark was carried, because they were some thing longer, were seen before the oracle: but if a man were a little outward, he could not see them. So the ark has been there unto this day.\n10 And there was nothing else in the ark but the two tables which Moses put there at Horeb when the Lord gave the law to the children of Israel, at their coming out of Egypt.\n11 Now when the priests were come out of the sanctuary, (for all the priests that could be found there, mere sanctified: and as yet at that time the courses and orders of the ministries were not divided among them,)\n12 Both the Levites and the singing men, that is, both they that were under Asaph, and they that were under Heman, and they that were under Idithun, with their sons, and their brethren, clothed with fine linen, sounded with cymbals, and psalteries, and harps, standing on the east side of the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests, sounding with trumpets.\n13 So when they all sounded together, both with trumpets, and voice, and cymbals, and organs, and with divers kind of musical instruments, and lifted up their voice on high: the sound was heard afar off, so that when they began to praise the Lord, and to say: Give glory to the Lord for he is good, for his mercy endureth for ever: the house of God was filled with a cloud.\n14 Nor could the priests stand and minister by reason of the cloud.

And one said to the other:\n13 Let us now go home, for it is dinner time. So going out they departed one from another.\n14 And turning back again, they came both to the same place: and asking one another the cause, they acknowledged their lust; and then they agreed upon a time, when they might find her alone.\n15 And it fell out, as they watched a fit day, she went in on a time, as yesterday and the day before, with two maids only, and was desirous to wash herself in the orchard: for it was hot weather.\n16 And there was nobody there, but the two old men that had hid themselves and were beholding her.\n17 So she said to the maids: Bring me oil, and washing balls, and shut the doors of the orchard, that I may wash me.\n18 And they did as she bade them: and they shut the doors of the orchard, and went out by a back door to fetch what she had commanded them, and they knew not that the elders were hid within.\n19 Now when the maids were gone forth, the two elders arose, and ran to her, and said:\n20 Behold the doors of the orchard are shut, and nobody seeth us, and we are in love with thee: wherefore consent to us, and lie with us.\n21 But if thou wilt not, we will bear witness against thee, that a young man was with thee, and therefore thou didst send away thy maids from thee.\n22 Susanna sighed, and said: I am straitened on every side: for if I do this thing, it is death to me: and if I do it not, I shall not escape your hands.\n23 But it is better for me to fall into your hands without doing it, than to sin in the sight of the Lord.\n24 With that Susanna cried out with a loud voice: and the elders also cried out against her.\n25 And one of them ran to the door of the orchard, and opened it.\n26 So when the servants of the house heard the cry in the orchard, they rushed in by the back door to see what was the matter.\n27 But after the old men had spoken, the servants were greatly ashamed: for never had there been any such word said of Susanna. And on the next day,\n28 When the people were come to Joakim her husband, the two elders also came full of wicked device against Susanna, to put her to death.\n29 And they said before the people: Send to Susanna daughter of Helcias the wife of Joakim. And presently they sent.\n30 And she came with her parents, and children, and all her kindred.\n31 Now Susanna was exceeding delicate, and beautiful to behold.\n32 But those wicked men commanded that her face should be uncovered, (for she was covered,) that so at least they might be satisfied with her beauty.\n33 Therefore her friends and all her acquaintance wept.\n34 But the two elders rising up in the midst of the people, laid their hands upon her head.\n35 And she weeping looked up to heaven, for her heart had confidence in the Lord.\n36 And the elders said: As we walked in the orchard alone, this woman came in with two maids, and shut the doors of the orchard, and sent away the maids from her.\n37 Then a young man that was there hid came to her, and lay with her.\n38 But we that were in a corner of the orchard, seeing this wickedness, ran up to them, and we saw them lie together.\n39 And him indeed we could not take, because he was stronger than us, and opening the doors he leaped out:\n40 But having taken this woman, we asked who the young man was, but she would not tell us: of this thing we are witnesses.\n41 The multitude believed them as being the elders and the judges of the people, and they condemned her to death.\n42 Then Susanna cried out with a loud voice, and said: O eternal God, who knowest hidden things, who knowest all things before they come to pass,\n43 Thou knowest that they have borne false witness against me: and behold I must die, whereas I have done none of these things, which these men have maliciously forged against me.\n44 And the Lord heard her voice.\n45 And when she was led to be put to death, the Lord raised up the holy spirit of a young boy, whose name was Daniel.\n46 And he cried out with a loud voice I am clear from the blood of this woman.\n47 Then all the people turning themselves towards him, said: What meaneth this word that thou hast spoken?\n48 But he standing in the midst of them, said: Are ye so foolish, ye children of Israel, that without examination or knowledge of the truth, you have condemned a daughter of Israel?\n49 Return to judgment, for they have borne false witness against her.\n50 So all the people turned again in haste, and the old men said to him: Come, and sit thou down among us, and shew it us: seeing God hath given thee the honour of old age.\n51 And Daniel said to the people: Separate these two far from one another, and I will examine them.\n52 So when they were put asunder one from the other, he called one of them, and said to him: O thou that art grown old in evil days, now are thy sins come out, which thou hast committed before:\n53 In judging unjust judgments, oppressing the innocent, and letting the guilty to go free, whereas the Lord saith: The innocent and the just thou shalt not kill.\n54 Now then, if thou sawest her, tell me under what tree thou sawest them conversing together. He said: Under a mastic tree.\n55 And Daniel said: Well hast thou lied against thy own head: for behold the angel of God having received the sentence of him, shall cut thee in two.\n56 And having put him aside, he commanded that the other should come, and he said to him: O thou seed of Chanaan, and not of Juda, beauty hath deceived thee, and lust hath perverted thy heart:\n57 Thus did you do to the daughters of Israel, and they for fear conversed with you: but a daughter of Juda would not abide your wickedness.\n58 Now therefore tell me, under what tree didst thou take them conversing together. And he answered: Under a holm tree.\n59 And Daniel said to him: Well hast thou also lied against thy own head: for the angel of the Lord waiteth with a sword to cut thee in two, and to destroy you.\n60 With that all the assembly cried out with a loud voice, and they blessed God, who saveth them that trust in him.\n61 And they rose up against the two elders, (for Daniel had convicted them of false witness by their own mouth,) and they did to them as they had maliciously dealt against their neighbour,\n62 To fulfill the law of Moses: and they put them to death, and innocent blood was saved in that day.\n63 But Helcias and his wife praised God, for their daughter Susanna, with Joakim her husband, and all her kindred, because there was no dishonesty found in her.\n64 And Daniel became great in the sight of the people from that day, and thenceforward.\n65 And king Astyages was gathered to his fathers, and Cyrus the Persian received his kingdom.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Verse 11 from chapter 4 in Exodus?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Exodus 4:11 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"The Lord said to him: Who made man's mouth? or who made the dumb and the deaf, the seeing and the blind? did not I?\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"And the Lord said to Moses, in Madian: Go, and return into Egypt: for they are all dead that sought thy life.\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from Exodus, chapter 4.\n\nWant the full chapter?

Maccabees, chapter 8.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\n2 Maccabees Chapter 8\n1 But Judas Machabeus, and they that were with him, went privately into the towns: and calling together their kinsmen and friends, and taking unto them such as continued in the Jews' religion, they assembled six thousand men.\n2 And they called upon the Lord that he would look upon his people that was trodden down by all, and would have pity on the temple, that was defiled by the wicked:\n3 That he would have pity also upon the city that was destroyed, that was ready to be made even with the ground, and would hear the voice of the blood that cried to him:\n4 That he would remember also the most unjust deaths of innocent children, and the blasphemies offered to his name, and would shew his indignation on this occasion.\n5 Now when Machabeus had gathered a multitude, he could not be withstood by the heathens: for the wrath of the Lord was turned into mercy.\n6 So coming unawares upon the towns and cities, he set them on fire, and taking possession of the most commodious places, he made no small slaughter of the enemies:\n7 And especially in the nights he went upon these expeditions, and the fame of his valour was spread abroad everywhere.\n8 Then Philip, seeing that the man gained ground by little and little, and that things for the most part succeeded prosperously with him, wrote to Ptolemee the governor of Celesyria and Phenicia, to send aid to the king's affairs.\n9 And he with all speed sent Nicanor the son of Patroclus, one of his special friends, giving him no fewer than twenty thousand armed men of different nations, to root out the whole race of the Jews, joining also with him Gorgias, a good soldier, and of great experience in matters of war.\n10 And Nicanor purposed to raise for the king the tribute of two thousand talents, that was to be given to the Romans, by making so much money of the captive Jews:\n11 Wherefore he sent immediately to the cities upon the sea coast, to invite men together to buy up the Jewish slaves, promising that they should have ninety slaves for one talent, not reflecting on the vengeance, which was to follow him from the Almighty.\n12 Now when Judas found that Nicanor was coming, he imparted to the Jews that were with him, that the enemy was at hand.\n13 And some of them being afraid, and distrusting the justice of God, fled away:\n14 Others sold all that they had left, and withal besought the Lord, that he would deliver them from the wicked Nicanor, who had sold them before he came near them:\n15 And if not for their sakes, yet for the covenant that he had made with their fathers, and for the sake of his holy and glorious name that was invoked upon them.\n16 But Machabeus calling together seven thousand that were with him, exhorted them not to be reconciled to the enemies, nor to fear the multitude of the enemies who came wrongfully against them, but to fight manfully:\n17 Setting before their eyes the injury they had unjustly done the holy place, and also the injury they had done to the city, which had been shamefully abused, besides their destroying the ordinances of the fathers.\n18 For, said he, they trust in their weapons, and in their boldness: but we trust in the Almighty Lord, who at a beck can utterly destroy both them that come against us, and the whole world.\n19 Moreover he put them in mind also of the helps their fathers had received from God: and how under Sennacherib a hundred and eighty-five thousand had been destroyed.\n20 And of the battle that they had fought against the Galatians in Babylonia, how they, being in all but six thousand, when it came to the point, and the Macedonians their companions were a stand, slew a hundred and twenty thousand, because of the help they had from heaven, and for this they received many favours.\n21 With these words they were greatly encouraged, and disposed even to die for the laws and their country.\n22 So he appointed his brethren captains over each division of his army, Simon, and Joseph, and Jonathan, giving to each one fifteen hundred men.\n23 And after the holy Book had been read to them by Esdras, and he had given them for a watchword, The help of God: himself leading the first band, he joined battle with Nicanor:\n24 And the Almighty being their helper, they slew above nine thousand men: and having wounded and disabled the greater part of Nicanor's army, they obliged them to fly.\n25 And they took the money of them that came to buy them, and they pursued them on every side.\n26 But they came back for want of time: for it was the day before the sabbath: and therefore they did not continue the pursuit.\n27 But when they had gathered together their arms and their spoils, they kept the sabbath: blessing the Lord who had delivered them that day, distilling the beginning of mercy upon them.\n28 Then after the sabbath they divided the spoils to the feeble and the orphans, and the widows: and the rest they took for themselves and their servants.\n29 When this was done, and they had all made a common supplication, they besought the merciful Lord to be reconciled to his servants unto the end.\n30 Moreover they slew above twenty thousand of them that were with Timotheus and Bacchides who fought them, and they made themselves masters of the high strong holds: and they divided amongst them many spoils, giving equal portions to the feeble, the fatherless and the widows, yea and the aged also.\n31 And when they had carefully gathered together their arms, they laid them all up in convenient places, and the residue of their spoils they carried to Jerusalem:\n32 They slew also Philarches who was with Timotheus, a wicked man, who had many ways afflicted the Jews.\n33 And when they kept the feast of the victory at Jerusalem, they burnt Callisthenes, that had set fire to the holy gates, who had taken refuge in a certain house, rendering to him a worthy reward for his impieties:\n34 But as for that most wicked man Nicanor, who had brought a thousand merchants to the sale of the Jews,\n35 Being through the help of the Lord brought down by them, of whom he had made no account, laying; aside his garment of glory, fleeing through the midland country, he came alone to Antioch, being rendered very unhappy by the destruction of his army.\n36 And he that had promised to levy the tribute for the Romans by the means of the captives of Jerusalem, now professed that the Jews had God for their protector, and therefore they could not be hurt, because they followed the laws appointed by him.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"Oppression troubleth the wise, and shall destroy the strength of his heart.\"?", "role": "user" }, {

Or who can tell him what shall be after him under the sun?\n2 A good name is better than precious ointments: and the day of death than the day of one's birth.\n3 It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to the house of feasting: for in that we are put in mind of the end of all, and the living thinketh what is to come.\n4 Anger is better than laughter: because by the sadness of the countenance the mind of the offender is corrected.\n5 The heart of the wise is where there is mourning, and the heart of fools where there is mirth.\n6 It is better to be rebuked by a wise man, than to be deceived by the flattery of fools.\n7 For as the crackling of thorns burning under a pot, so is the laughter of a fool: now this also is vanity.\n8 Oppression troubleth the wise, and shall destroy the strength of his heart.\n9 Better is the end of a speech than the beginning. Better is the patient man than the presumptuous.\n10 Be not quickly angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of a fool.\n11 Say not: What thinkest thou is the cause that former times were better than they are now? for this manner of question is foolish.\n12 Wisdom with riches is more profitable, and bringeth more advantage to them that see the sun.\n13 For as wisdom is a defence, so money is a defence: but learning and wisdom excel in this, that they give life to him that possesseth them.\n14 Consider the works of God, that no man can correct whom he hath despised.\n15 In the good day enjoy good things, and beware beforehand of the evil day: for God hath made both the one and the other, that man may not find against him any just complaint.\n16 These things also I saw in the days of my vanity: A just man perisheth in his justice, and a wicked man liveth a long time in his wickedness.\n17 Be not over just: and be not more wise than is necessary, lest thou become stupid.\n18 Be not overmuch wicked: and be not foolish, lest thou die before thy time.\n19 It is good that thou shouldst hold up the just, yea and from him withdraw not thy hand: for he that feareth God, neglecteth nothing.\n20 Wisdom hath strengthened the wise more than ten princes of the city.\n21 For there is no just man upon earth, that doth good, and sinneth not.\n22 But do not apply thy heart to all words that are spoken: lest perhaps thou hear thy servant reviling thee.\n23 For thy conscience knoweth that thou also hast often spoken evil of others.\n24 I have tried all things in wisdom. I have said: I will be wise: and it departed farther from me,\n25 Much more than it was: it is a great depth, who shall find it out?\n26 I have surveyed all things with my mind, to know, and consider, and seek out wisdom and reason: and to know the wickedness of the fool, and the error of the imprudent:\n27 And I have found a woman more bitter than death, who is the hunter's snare, and her heart is a net, and her hands are bands.

These things did the three most valiant.\n20 And Abisai the brother of Joab, he was chief of three, and he lifted up his spear against three hundred whom he slew, and he was renowned among the three,\n21 And illustrious among the second three, and their captain: but yet he attained not to the first three.\n22 Banaias the son of Joiada, a most valiant man, of Cabseel, who had done many acts: he slew the two ariels of Moab: and he went down, and killed a lion in the midst of a pit in the time of snow.\n23 And he slew an Egyptian, whose stature was of five cubits, and who had a spear like a weaver's beam: and he went down to him with a staff, and plucked away the spear, that he held in his hand, and slew him with his own spear.\n24 These things did Banaias the son of Joiada, who was renowned among the three valiant ones,\n25 And the first among the thirty, but yet to the three he attained not: and David made him of his council.\n26 Moreover the most valiant men of the army, were Asahel brother of Joab, and Elchanan the son of his uncle of Bethlehem,\n27 Sammoth an Arorite, Helles a Phalonite,\n28 Ira the son of Acces a Thecuite, Abiezer an Anathothite,\n29 Sobbochai a Husathite, Ilai an Ahohite,\n30 Maharai a Netophathite, Heled the son of Baana a Netophathite,\n31 Ethai the son of Ribai of Gabaath of the sons of Benjamin, Banal a Pharathonite,\n32 Hurai of the torrent Gaas, Abiel an Arbathite, Azmoth a Bauramite, Eliaba a Salabonite,\n33 The sons of Assem a, Gezonite, Jonathan the son of Sage an Ararite,\n34 Ahiam the son of Sachar an Ararite,\n35 Eliphal the son of Ur,\n36 Hepher a Mecherathite, Ahia a Phelonite,\n37 Hesro a Carmelite, Naarai the son of Azbai,\n38 Joel the brother of Nathan, Mibahar the son of Agarai.\n39 Selec an Ammonite, Naharai a Berothite, the armourbearer of Joab the son of Sarvia.\n40 Ira a Jethrite, Gareb a Jethrite,\n41 Urias a Hethite, Zabad the son of Oholi,\n42 Adina the son of Siza a Rubenite the prince of the Rubenites, and thirty with him:\n43 Hanan the son of Maacha, and Josaphat a Mathanite,\n44 Ozia an Astarothite, Samma, and Jehiel the sons of Hotham an Arorite,\n45 Jedihel the son of Zamri, and Jobs his brother a Thosaite,\n46 Eliel a Mithumite, and Jeribai, and Josaia the sons of Elnaim, and Jethma a Moabite, Eliel, and Obed, and Jasiel of Masobia.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book is the quote \"But you do wrong and defraud, and that to your brethren.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The passage \"But you do wrong and defraud, and that to your brethren.\" comes from 1 Corinthians 6:8 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Find and read Deuteronomy chapter 15, verse 23", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Deuteronomy chapter 15, verse 23, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"Only thou shalt take heed not to eat their blood, but pour it out on the earth as water.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book, chapter, and verse for \"Butter of the herd, and milk of the sheep with the fat of lambs, and of the rams of the breed of Basan: and goats with the marrow of wheat, and might drink the purest blood of the grape.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The quote \"Butter of the herd, and milk of the sheep with the fat of lambs, and of the rams of the breed of Basan: and goats with the marrow of wheat, and might drink the purest blood of the grape.\" is from Deuteronomy 32:14 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where does it say \"But if you bite and devour one another;

For no account was made of silver in those days.\n21 For the king's ships went to Tharsis with the servants of Hiram, once in three years: and they brought thence gold and silver, and ivory, and apes, and peacocks.\n22 And Solomon was magnified above all the kings of the earth for riches and glory.\n23 And all the kings of the earth desired to see the face of Solomon, that they might hear the wisdom which God had given in his heart.\n24 And every year they brought him presents, vessels of silver and of gold, and garments, and armour, and spices, and horses, and mules.\n25 And Solomon had forty thousand horses in the stables, and twelve thousand chariots, and horsemen, and he placed them in the cities of the chariots, and where the king was in Jerusalem.\n26 And he exercised authority over all the kings from the river Euphrates to the land of the Philistines, and to the borders of Egypt.\n27 And he made silver as plentiful in Jerusalem as stones: and cedars as common as the sycamores, which grow in the plains.\n28 And horses were brought to him out of Egypt, and out of all countries.\n29 Now the rest of the acts of Solomon first and last are written in the words of Nathan the prophet, and in the books of Ahias the Silonite, and in the vision of Addo the seer, against Jeroboam the son of Nabat.\n30 And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years.\n31 And he slept with his fathers: and they buried him in the city of David: and Roboam his son reigned in his stead.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"For I know your forward mind: for which I boast of you to the Macedonians.

Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee from the hand of Saul,\n8 And gave thee thy master's house and thy master's wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and Juda: and if these things be little, I shall add far greater things unto thee.\n9 Why therefore hast thou despised the word of the Lord, to do evil in my sight? Thou hast killed Urias the Hethite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.\n10 Therefore the sword shall never depart from thy house, because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Urias the Hethite to be thy wife.\n11 Thus saith the Lord: Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thy own house, and I will take thy wives before thy eyes I and give them to thy neighhour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.\n12 For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing in the sight of all Israel, and in the sight of the sun.\n13 And David said to Nathan: I have sinned against the Lord. And Nathan said to David: The Lord also hath taken away thy sin: thou shalt not die.\n14 Nevertheless, because thou hast given occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, for this thing, the child that is born to thee, shall surely die.\n15 And Nathan returned to his house. The Lord also struck the child which the wife of Urias had borne to David, and his life was despaired of.\n16 And David besought the Lord for the child: and David kept a fast, and going in by himself lay upon the ground.\n17 And the ancients of his house came, to make him rise from the ground: but he would not, neither did he eat meat with them.\n18 And it came to pass on the seventh day that the child died: and the servants of David feared to tell him, that the child was dead. For they said: Behold when the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he would not hearken to our voice: how much more will he afflict himself if we tell him that the child is dead?\n19 But when David saw his servants whispering, he understood that the child was dead: and he said to his servants: Is the child dead? They answered him: He is dead.\n20 Then David arose from the ground, and washed and anointed himself: and when he had changed his apparel, he went into the house of the Lord: and worshipped, and then he came into his own house, and he called for bread, and ate.\n21 And his servants said to him: What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, while it was alive, but when the child was dead, thou didst rise up, and eat bread.\n22 And he said: While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept for him: for I said: Who knoweth whether the Lord may not give him to me, and the child may live?\n23 But now that he is dead, why should I fast? Shall I be able to bring him back any more? I shall go to him rather: but he shall not return to me.\n24 And David comforted Bethsabee his wife, and went in unto her, and slept with her: and she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon, and the Lord loved him.\n25 And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and called his name, Amiable to the Lord, because the Lord loved him.\n26 And Joab fought against Rabbath of the children of Ammon, and laid close siege to the royal city.\n27 And Joab sent messengers to David, saying: I have fought against Rabbath, and the city of waters is about to be taken.\n28 Now therefore gather thou the rest of the people together, and besiege the city and take it: lest when the city shall be wasted by me, the victory be ascribed to my name.\n29 Then David gathered all the people together, and went out against Rabbath: and after fighting, he took it.\n30 And he took the crown of their king from his head, the weight of which was a talent of gold, set with most precious stones, and it was put upon David's head, and the spoils of the city which were very great he carried away.\n31 And bringing forth the people thereof he sawed them, and drove over them chariots armed with iron: and divided them with knives, and made them pass through brickkilns: so did he to all the cities of the children of Ammon: and David returned, with all the army to Jerusalem.\n", "role": "assistant" }, {

chief of the fathers, and said to them: Let us build with you, for we seek your God as ye do: behold we have sacrificed to him, since the days of Asor Haddan king of Assyria, who brought us hither.\n3 But Zorobabel, and Josue, and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel said to them: You have nothing to do with us to build a house to our God, but we ourselves alone will build to the Lord our God, as Cyrus king of the Persians hath commanded us.\n4 Then the people of the land hindered the hands of the people of Juda, and troubled them in building.\n5 And they hired counsellors against them, to frustrate their design all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of the Persians.\n6 And in the reign of Assuerus, in the beginning of his reign, they wrote an accusation against the inhabitants of Juda and Jerusalem.\n7 And in the days of Artaxerxes, Beselam, Mithridates, and Thabeel, and the rest that were in the council wrote to Artaxerxes king of the Persians: and the letter of accusation was written in Syriac, and was read in the Syrian tongue.\n8 Reum Beelteem, and Samsai the scribe wrote a letter from Jerusalem to king Artaxerxes, in this manner:\n9 Reum Beelteem, and Samsai the scribe and the rest of their counsellors, the Dinites, and the Apharsathacites, the Therphalites, the Apharsites, the Erchuites, the Babylonians, the Susanechites, the Dievites, and the Elamites,\n10 And the rest of the nations, whom the great and glorious Asenaphar brought over: and made to dwell in the cities of Samaria and in the rest of the countries of this side of the river in peace.\n11 (This is the copy of the letter, which they sent to him:) To Artaxerxes the king, thy servants, the men that are on this side of the river, send greeting.\n12 Be it known to the king, that the Jews, who came up from thee to us, are come to Jerusalem a rebellious and wicked city, which they are building, setting up the ramparts thereof and repairing the walls.\n13 And now be it known to the king, that if this city be built up, and the walls thereof repaired, they will not pay tribute nor toll, nor yearly revenues, and this loss will fail upon the kings.\n14 But we remembering the salt that we have eaten in the palace, and because we count it a crime to see the king wronged, have therefore sent and certified the king,\n15 That search may be made in the books of the histories of thy fathers, and thou shalt find written in the records: and shalt know that this city is a rebellious city, and hurtful to the kings and provinces, and that wars were raised therein of old time: for which cause also the city was destroyed.\n16 We certify the king, that if this city be built, and the walls thereof repaired, thou shalt have no possession on this side of the river.\n17 The king sent word to Reum Beelteem and Samsai the scribe, and to the rest that were in their council, inhabitants of Samaria, and to the rest beyond the river, sending greeting and peace.\n18 The accusation, which you have sent to us, hath been plainly read before me,\n19 And I commanded: and search hath been made, and it is found, that this city of

the river: and have received tribute, and toll and revenues.\n21 Now therefore hear the sentence: Hinder those men, that this city be not built, till further orders be given by me.\n22 See that you be

For some have not the knowledge of God, I speak it to your shame.\n35 But some man will say: How do the dead rise again? or with what manner of body shall they come?\n36 Senseless man, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die first.\n37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be; but bare grain, as of wheat, or of some of the rest.\n38 But God giveth it a body as he will: and to every seed its proper body.\n39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but one is the flesh of men, another of beasts, another of birds, another of fishes.\n40 And there are bodies celestial, and bodies terrestrial: but, one is the glory of the celestial, and another of the terrestrial.\n41 One is the glory of the sun, another the glory of the moon, and another the glory of the stars. For star differeth from star in glory.\n42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it shall rise in incorruption.\n43 It is sown in dishonour, it shall rise in glory. It is sown in weakness, it shall rise in power.\n44 It is sown a natural body, it shall rise a spiritual body. If there be a natural body, there is also a spiritual body, as it is written:\n45 The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit.\n46 Yet that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; afterwards that which is spiritual.\n47 The first man was of the earth, earthly: the second man, from heaven, heavenly.\n48 Such as is the earthly, such also are the earthly: and such as is the heavenly, such also are they that are heavenly.\n49 Therefore as we have borne the image of the earthly, let us bear also the image of the heavenly.\n50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot possess the kingdom of God: neither shall corruption possess incorruption.\n51 Behold, I tell you a mystery. We shall all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be changed.\n52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall rise again incorruptible: and we shall be changed.\n53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption; and this mortal must put on immortality.\n54 And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.\n55 O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?\n56 Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law.\n57 But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.\n58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast and unmoveable; always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does it say in 1 Kings chapter 18 verse 30?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Old Testament\n1 Kings 18:30 (Douay Rheims)\n\"Elias said to all the people: Come ye unto me.

Thy kingdom come.\n3 Give us this day our daily bread.\n4 And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation.\n5 And he said to them: Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go to him at midnight, and shall say to him: Friend, lend me three loaves,\n6 Because a friend of mine is come off his journey to me, and I have not what to set before him.\n7 And he from within should answer, and say: Trouble me not, the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee.\n8 Yet if he shall continue knocking, I say to you, although he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend; yet, because of his importunity, he will rise, and give him as many as he needeth.\n9 And I say to you, Ask, and it shall be given you: seek, and you shall find: knock, and it shall be opened to you.\n10 For every one that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened.\n11 And which of you, if he ask his father bread, will he give him a stone? or a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?\n12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he reach him a scorpion?\n13 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father from heaven give the good Spirit to them that ask him?\n14 And he was casting out a devil, and the same was dumb: and when he had cast out the devil, the dumb spoke: and the multitudes were in admiration at it:\n15 But some of them said: He casteth out devils by Beelzebub, the prince of devils.\n16 And others tempting, asked of him a sign from heaven.\n17 But he seeing their thoughts, said to them: Every kingdom divided against itself, shall be brought to desolation, and house upon house shall fall.\n18 And if Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because you say, that through Beelzebub I cast out devils.\n19 Now if I cast out devils by Beelzebub; by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges.\n20 But if I by the finger of God cast out devils; doubtless the kingdom of God is come upon you.\n21 When a strong man armed keepeth his court, those things are in peace which he possesseth.\n22 But if a stronger than he come upon him, and overcome him; he will take away all his armour wherein he trusted, and will distribute his spoils.\n23 He that is not with me, is against me; and he that gathereth not with me, scattereth.\n24 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through places without water, seeking rest; and not finding, he saith: I will return into my house whence I came out.\n25 And when he is come, he findeth it swept and garnished.\n26 Then he goeth and taketh with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and entering in they dwell there. And the last state of that man becomes worse than the first.\n27 And it came to pass, as he spoke these things, a certain woman from the crowd, lifting up her voice, said to him: Blessed is the womb that bore thee, and the paps that gave thee suck.\n28 But he said: Yea rather, blessed are they who hear the word of God, and keep it.\n29 And the multitudes running together, he began to say: This generation is a wicked generation: it asketh a sign, and a sign shall not be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.\n30 For as Jonas was a sign to the Ninivites; so shall the Son of man also be to this generation.\n31 The queen of the south shall rise in the judgment with the men of this generation, and shall condemn them: because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold more than Solomon here.\n32 The men of Ninive shall rise in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it; because they did penance at the preaching of Jonas; and behold more than Jonas here.\n33 No man lighteth a candle, and putteth it in a hidden place, nor under a bushel; but upon a candlestick, that they that come in, may see the light.\n34 The light of thy body is thy eye.

And David rose and went down into the wilderness of Pharan.\n2 Now there was a certain man in the wilderness of Maon, and his possessions were in Carmel, and the man was very great: and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and it happened that he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.\n3 Now the name of the man was Nabal: and the name of his wife was Abigail. And she was a prudent and very comely woman, but her husband was churlish, and very bad and ill natured: and he was of the house of Caleb.\n4 And when David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep,\n5 He sent ten young men, and said to them: Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and salute him in my name with peace.\n6 And you shall say: Peace be to my brethren, and to thee, and peace to thy house, and peace to all that thou hast.\n7 I heard that thy shepherds that were with us in the desert were shearing: we never molested them, neither was there ought missing to them of the flock at any time, all the while they were with us in Carmel.\n8 Ask thy servants, and they will tell thee. Now therefore let thy servants find favour in thy eyes: for we are come in a good day, whatsoever thy hand shall find give to thy servants, and to thy son David.\n9 And when David's servants came, they spoke to Nabal all these words in David's name: and then held their peace.\n10 But Nabal answering the servants of David, said: Who is David? and what is the son of Isai? servants are multiplied now a days who flee from their masters.\n11 Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and the flesh of my cattle, which I have killed for my shearers, and give to men whom I know not whence they are?\n12 So the servants of David went back their way, and returning came and told him all the words that he said.\n13 Then David said to his young men: Let every man gird on his sword. And they girded on every man his sword. And David also girded on his sword: and there followed David about four hundred men: and two hundred remained with the baggage.\n14 But one of the servants told Abigail the wife of Nabal, saying: Behold David sent messengers out of the wilderness, to salute our master: and he rejected them.\n15 These men were very good to us, and gave us no trouble: neither did we ever lose any thing all the time that we conversed with them in the desert.\n16 They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.\n17 Wherefore consider, and think what thou hast to do: for evil is determined against thy husband, and against thy house, and he is a son of Belial, so that no man can speak to him.\n18 Then Abigail made haste and took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of dry figs, and laid them upon asses:\n19 And she said to her servants: Go before me: behold I will follow after you: but she told not her husband Nabal.\n20 And when she had gotten upon an ass, and was coming down to the foot of the mountain, David and his men came down over against her, and she met them.\n21 And David said: Truly in vain have I kept all that belonged to this man in the wilderness, and nothing was lost of all that pertained unto him: and he hath returned me evil for good.\n22 May God do so and so, and add more to the foes of David, if I leave of all that belong to him till the morning, any that pisseth against the wall.\n23 And when Abigail saw David she made haste and lighted off the ass, and fell before David, on her face, and adored upon the ground.\n24 And she fell at his feet, and said: Upon me let this iniquity be, my lord: let thy handmaid speak, I beseech thee, in thy ears: and hear the words of thy servant.\n25 Let not my lord the king, I pray, regard this naughty man Nabal: for according to his name, he is a fool, and folly is with him: but I thy handmaid did not see thy servants, my lord, whom thou sentest.\n26 Now therefore, my lord, the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, who hath withholden thee from coming to blood, and hath saved thy hand to thee: and now let thy enemies be as Nabal, and all they that seek evil to my lord.\n27 Wherefore receive this blessing, which thy handmaid hath brought to thee, my lord: and give it to the young men that follow thee, my lord.\n28 Forgive the iniquity of thy handmaid: for the Lord will surely make for my lord a faithful house, because thou, my lord, fightest the battles of the Lord: let not evil therefore be found in thee all the days of thy life.\n29 For if a man at any time shall rise, and persecute thee, and seek thy life, the soul of my lord shall be kept, as in the bundle of the living, with the Lord thy God: but the souls of thy enemies shall be whirled, as with the violence and whirling of a sling.\n30 And when the Lord shall have done to thee, my lord, all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have made thee prince over Israel,\n31 This shall not be an occasion of grief to thee, and a scruple of heart to my lord, that thou hast shed innocent blood, or hast revenged thyself: and when the Lord shall have done well by my lord, thou shalt remember thy handmaid.\n32 And David said to Abigail: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me, and blessed be thy speech:\n33 And blessed be thou, who hast kept me to day, from coming to blood, and revenging me with my own hand.\n34 Otherwise as the Lord liveth the God of Israel, who hath withholden me from doing thee any evil: if thou hadst not quickly come to meet me, there had not been left to Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.\n35 And David received at her hand all that she had brought him, and said to her: Go in peace into thy house, behold I have heard thy voice, and have honoured thy face.\n36 And Abigail came to Nabal: and behold he had a feast in his house, like the feast of a king, and Nabal's heart was merry: for he was very drunk: and she told him nothing less or more until morning.\n37 But early in the morning when Nabal had digested his wine, his wife told him these words, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.\n38 And after ten days had passed, the Lord struck Nabal, and he died.\n39 And when David had heard that Nabal was dead, he said: Blessed be the Lord, who hath judged the cause of my reproach at the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil, and the Lord hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his head. Then David sent and treated with Abigail, that he might take her to himself for a wife.\n40 And David's servants came to Abigail to Carmel, and spoke to her, saying: David hath sent us to thee, to take thee to himself for a wife.\n41 And she arose and bowed herself down with her face to the earth, and said: Behold, let thy servant be a handmaid, to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.\n42 And Abigail arose, and made haste, and got upon an ass, and five damsels went with her, her waiting maids, and she followed the messengers of David, and became his wife.\n43 Moreover David took also Achinoam of Jezrahel: and they were both of them his wives.\n44 But Saul gave Michol his daughter, David's wife, to Phalti, the son of Lais, who was of Gallium.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the content of 2 Maccabees 6:10?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in 2 Maccabees 6:10 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"For two women were accused to have circumcised their children: whom, when they had openly led about through the city with the infants hanging at their breasts, they threw down headlong from the walls.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"And now we follow thee with all our heart, and we fear thee, and seek thy face.\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from Daniel, chapter 3.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\nDaniel Chapter 3\n1 King Nabuchodonosor made a statue of gold, of sixty cubits high, and six cubits broad, and he set it up in the plain of Dura of the province of Babylon.\n2 Then Nabuchodonosor the king sent to call together the nobles, the magistrates, and the judges, the captains, the rulers, and governors, and all the chief men of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.\n3 Then the nobles, the magistrates, and the judges, the captains, and rulers, and the great men that were placed in authority, and all the princes of the provinces, were gathered together to come to the dedication of the statue, which king Nabuchodonosor had set up. And they stood before the statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.\n4 Then a herald cried with a strong voice: To you it is commanded, O nations, tribes, and languages:\n5 That in the hour that you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, and of the flute, and of the harp, of the sackbut, and of the psaltery, and of the symphony, and of all kind of music; ye fall down and adore the golden statue which king Nabuchodonosor hath set up.\n6 But if any man shall not fall down and adore, he shall the same hour be cast into a furnace of burning fire.\n7 Upon this therefore, at the time when all the people heard the sound of the trumpet, the flute, and the harp, of the sackbut, and the psaltery, of the symphony, and of all kind of music: all the nations, tribes, and languages fell down and adored the golden statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.\n8 And presently at that very time some Chaldeans came and accused the Jews,\n9 And said to king Nabuchodonosor: O king, live for ever:\n10 Thou, O king, hast made a decree that every man that shall hear the sound of the trumpet, the flute, and the harp, of the sackbut, and the psaltery, of the symphony, and of all kind of music, shall prostrate himself, and adore the golden statue:\n11 And that if any man shall not fall down and adore, he should be cast into a furnace of burning fire.\n12 Now there are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the works of the province of Babylon, Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago: these men, O king, have slighted thy decree: they worship not thy gods, nor do they adore the golden statue which thou hast set up.\n13 Then Nabuchodonosor in fury, and in wrath, commanded that Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago should be brought: who immediately were brought before the king.\n14 And Nabuchodonosor the king spoke to them, and said: Is it true, O Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, that you do not worship my gods, nor adore the golden statue that I have set up?\n15 Now therefore if you be ready at what hour soever you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, flute, harp, sackbut, and psaltery, and symphony, and of all kind of music, prostrate yourselves, and adore the statue which I have made: but if you do not adore, you shall be cast the same hour into the furnace of burning fire: and who is the God that shall deliver you out of my hand?\n16 Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago answered and said to king Nabuchodonosor: We have no occasion to answer thee concerning this matter.\n17 For behold our God, whom we worship, is able to save us from the furnace of burning fire, and to deliver us out of thy hands, O king.\n18 But if he will not, be it known to thee, O king, that we will not worship thy gods, nor adore the golden statue which thou hast set up.\n19 Then was Nabuchodonosor filled with fury: and the countenance of his face was changed against Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, and he commanded that the furnace should be heated seven times more than it had been accustomed to be heated.\n20 And he commanded the strongest men that were in his army, to bind the feet of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, and to cast them into the furnace of burning fire.\n21 And immediately these men were bound and were cast into the furnace of burning fire, with their coats, and their caps, and their shoes, and their garments.\n22 For the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace was heated exceedingly. And the flame of the fire slew those men that had cast in Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago.\n23 But these three men, that is, Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, fell down bound in the midst of the furnace of burning fire.\n24 And they walked in the midst of the flame, praising God and blessing the Lord.\n25 Then Azarias standing up prayed in this manner, and opening his mouth in the midst of the fire, he said:\n26 Blessed art thou, O Lord, the God of our fathers, and thy name is worthy of praise, and glorious for ever:\n27 For thou art just in all that thou hast done to us, and all thy works are true, and thy ways right, and all thy judgments true.\n28 For thou hast executed true judgments in all the things that thou hast brought upon us, and upon Jerusalem the holy city of our fathers: for according to truth and judgment, thou hast brought all these things upon us for our sins.\n29 For we have sinned, and committed iniquity, departing from thee: and we have trespassed in all things:\n30 And we have not hearkened to thy commandments, nor have we observed nor done as thou hadst commanded us, that it might go well with us.\n31 Wherefore all that thou hast brought upon us, and every thing that thou hast done to us, thou hast done in true judgment:\n32 And thou hast delivered us into the hands of our enemies that are unjust, and most wicked, and prevaricators, and to a king unjust, and most wicked beyond all that are upon the earth.\n33 And now we cannot open our mouths: we are become a shame and reproach to thy servants, and to them that worship thee.\n34 Deliver us not up for ever, we beseech thee, for thy name's sake, and abolish not thy covenant.\n35 And take not away thy mercy from us for the sake of Abraham thy beloved, and Isaac thy servant, and Israel thy holy one:\n36 To whom thou hast spoken, promising that thou wouldst multiply their seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is on the sea shore.\n37 For we, O Lord, are diminished more than any nation, and are brought low in all the earth this day for our sins.\n38 Neither is there at this time prince, or leader, or prophet, or holocaust, or sacrifice, or oblation, or incense, or place of firstfruits before thee,\n39 That we may find thy mercy: nevertheless in a contrite heart and humble spirit let us be accepted.\n40 As in holocausts of rams, and bullocks, and as in thousands of fat lambs: so let our sacrifice be made in thy sight this day, that it may please thee: for there is no confusion to them that trust in thee.\n41 And now we follow thee with all our heart, and we fear thee, and seek thy face.\n42 Put us not to confusion, but deal. with us according to thy meekness, and according to the multitude of thy mercies.\n43 And deliver us according to thy wonderful works, and give glory to thy name, O Lord:\n44 And let all them be confounded that shew evils to thy servants, let them be confounded in all thy might, and let their strength be broken.\n45 And let them know that thou art the Lord, the only God, and glorious over all the world.\n46 Now the king's servants that had cast them in, ceased not to heat the furnace with brimstone, and tow, and pitch, and dry sticks,\n47 And the flame mounted up above the furnace nine and forty cubits:\n48 And it broke forth, and burnt such of the Chaldeans as it found near the furnace.\n49 But the angel of the Lord went down with Azarias and his companions into the furnace: and he drove the flame of the fire out of the furnace,\n50 And made the midst of the furnace like the blowing of a wind bringing dew, and the fire touched them not at all, nor troubled them, nor did them any harm.\n51 Then these three as with one mouth praised, and glorified, and blessed God in the furnace, saying:\n52 Blessed art thou, O Lord the God of our fathers: and worthy to be praised, and glorified, and exalted above all for ever: and blessed is the holy name of thy glory: and worthy to be praised, and exalted above all in all ages.\n53 Blessed art thou in the holy temple of thy glory: and exceedingly to be praised, and exceeding glorious for ever.\n54 Blessed art thou on the throne of thy kingdom, and exceedingly to be praised, and exalted above all for ever.\n55 Blessed art thou, that beholdest the depths, and sittest upon the cherubims: and worthy to be praised and exalted above all for ever.\n56 Blessed art thou in the firmament of heaven: and worthy of praise, and glorious for ever.\n57 All ye works of the Lord, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n58 O ye angels of the Lord, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n59 O ye heavens, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n60 O all ye waters that are above the heavens, bless the Lord;

I will be no more with you, till you destroy him that is guilty of this wickedness.\n13 Arise, sanctify the people, and say to them: Be ye sanctified against to morrow: for thus saith the Lord God of Israel: The anathema is in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst not stand before thy enemies, till he be destroyed out of thee that is defiled with this wickedness.\n14 And you shall come in the morning every one by your tribes: and what tribe soever the lot shall find, it shall come by its kindreds and the kindred by its houses, and the house by the men.\n15 And whosoever he be that shall be found guilty of this fact, he shall be burnt with fire with all his substance, because he hath transgressed the covenant of the Lord, and hath done wickedness in Israel.\n16 Josue, therefore, when he rose in the morning, made Israel to come by their tribes, and the tribe of Juda was found,\n17 Which being brought by its families, it was found to be the family of Zare.

And the Levite the husband of the woman that was killed, being asked, how so great a wickedness had been committed,\n4 Answered: I came into Gabaa of Benjamin with my wife, and there I lodged:\n5 And behold the men of that city in the night beset the house wherein I was, intending to kill me, and abused my wife with an incredible fury of lust, so that at last she died.\n6 And I took her and cut her in pieces, and sent the, parts into all the borders of your possession: because there never was so heinous a crime, and so great an abomination committed in Israel.\n7 You are all here, O children of Israel, determine what you ought to do.\n8 And all the people standing, answered as by the voice of one man: We will not return to our tents, neither shall any one of us go into his own house:\n9 But this we will do in common against Gabaa:\n10 We will take ten men of a hundred out of all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred out of a thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand, to bring victuals for the army, that we might fight against Gabaa of Benjamin, and render to it for its wickedness, what it deserveth.\n11 And all Israel were gathered together against the city, as one man, with one mind, and one counsel:\n12 And they sent messengers to all the tribe of Benjamin to say to them: Why hath so great an abomination been found among you?\n13 Deliver up the men of Gabaa, that have committed this heinous crime, that they may die, and the evil may be taken away out of Israel. But they would not hearken to the proposition of their brethren the children of Israel:\n14 But out of all the cities which were of their lot, they gathered themselves together into Gabaa, to aid them, and to fight against the whole people of Israel.\n15 And there were found of Benjamin five and twenty thousand men that drew the sword, besides the inhabitants of Gabaa,\n16 Who were seven hundred most valiant men, fighting with the left hand as well as with the right: and slinging stones so sure that they could hit even a hair, and not miss by the stone's going on either side.\n17 Of the men of Israel also, beside the children of Benjamin, were found four hundred thousand that drew swords, and were prepared to fight.\n18 And they arose and came to the house of God, that is, to Silo: and they consulted God, and said: Who shall be in our army the first to go to the battle against the children of Benjamin? And the Lord answered them: Let Juda be your leader.\n19 And forthwith the children of Israel rising in the morning, camped by Gabaa:\n20 And going out from thence to fight against Benjamin, began to assault the city.\n21 And the children of Benjamin coming out of Gabaa, slew of the children of Israel that day two and twenty thousand men.\n22 Again Israel trusting in their strength and their number, set their army in array in the same place, where they had fought before:\n23 Yet so that they first went up and wept before the Lord until night: and consulted him, and said: Shall I go out any more to fight against the children of Benjamin my brethren, or not? And he answered them: Go up against them, and join battle.\n24 And when the children of Israel went out the next day to fight against the children of Benjamin,\n25 The children of Benjamin sallied forth out of the gates of Gabaa: and meeting them made so great a slaughter of them, as to kill eighteen thousand men that drew the sword.\n26 Wherefore all the children of Israel came to the house of God, and sat and wept before the Lord: and they fasted that day till the evening, and offered to him holocausts, and victims of peace offerings,\n27 And inquired of him concerning their state. At that time the ark of the covenant of the Lord was there,\n28 And Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron was over the house. So they consulted the Lord and said: Shall we go out any more to fight against the children of Benjamin our brethren, or shall we cease? And the Lord said to them: Go up, for to morrow I will deliver them into your hands.\n29 And the children of Israel set ambushes round about the city of Gabaa:\n30 And they drew up their army against Benjamin the third time, as they had done the first and second.\n31 And the children of Benjamin boldly issued out of the city, and seeing their enemies flee, pursued them a long way, so as to wound and kill some of them, as they had done the first and second day, whilst they fled by two highways, whereof one goeth up to Bethel, and the other to Gabaa, and they slew about thirty men:\n32 For they thought to cut them off, as they did before. But they artfully feigning a flight, designed to draw them away from the city, and by their seeming to flee to bring them to the highways aforesaid.\n33 Then all the children of Israel rising up out of the places where they were, set their army in battle array, in the place which is called Baalthamar. The ambushes also which were about the city, began by little and little to come forth,\n34 And to march from the west side of the city. And other ten thousand men chosen out of all Israel attacked the inhabitants of the city. And the battle grew hot against the children of Benjamin: and they understood not that present death threatened them on every side.\n35 And the Lord defeated them before the children of Israel, and they slew of them in that day five and twenty thousand, and one hundred, all fighting men and that drew the sword.\n36 But the children of Benjamin when they saw themselves to be too weak, began to flee. Which the children of Israel seeing, gave them place to flee, that they might come to the ambushes that were prepared, which they had set near the city.\n37 And they that were in ambush arose on a sudden out of their coverts, and whilst Benjamin turned their backs to the slayers, went into the city, and smote it with the edge of the sword.\n38 Now the children of Israel had given a sign to them, whom they had laid in ambushes, that after they had taken the city, they should make a fire: that by the smoke rising on high, they might shew that the city was taken.\n39 And when the children of Israel saw this in the battle (for the children of Benjamin thought they fled and pursued them vigorously, killing thirty men of their army)\n40 And perceived as it were a pillar of smoke rise up from the city; and Benjamin looking back, saw that the city was taken, and that the flames ascended on high:\n41 They that before had made as if they fled, turning their faces stood bravely against them; which the children of Benjamin seeing, turned their backs,\n42 And began to go towards the way of the desert, the enemy pursuing them thither also. And they that fired the city came also out to meet them.\n43 And so it was, that they were slain on both sides by the enemies, and there was no rest of their men dying. They fell and were beaten down on the east side of the city Gabaa.\n44 And they that were slain in the same place were eighteen thousand men, all most valiant soldiers.\n45 And when they that remained of Benjamin saw this, they fled into the wilderness and made towards the rock that is called Remmon. In that flight, also as they were straggling and going different ways, they slew of them five thousand men. And as they went farther, they still pursued them, and slew also other two thousand.\n46 And so it came to pass, that all that were slain of Benjamin in divers places, were five and twenty thousand fighting men, most valiant for war.\n47 And there remained of all the number of Benjamin only six hundred men that were able to escape, and flee to the wilderness: and they abode in the rock Remmon four months.\n48 But the children of Israel returning, put all the remains of the city to the sword, both men and beasts, and all the cities and villages of Benjamin were consumed with devouring flames.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where does it say \"And when they drew nigh to Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto mount Olivet, then Jesus sent two disciples,\", in the bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of Matthew, chapter 21, verse 1 of the New Testament, you'll find \"And when they drew nigh to Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto mount Olivet, then Jesus sent two disciples,\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the reference (book, chapter, verse) for \"Alohes, Phalea, Sobec,\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"Alohes, Phalea, Sobec,\" is written in Nehemiah 10:24, within the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book, chapter, and verse for \"They are right to them that understand, and just to them that find knowledge.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The text \"They are right to them that understand, and just to them that find knowledge.\" is part of Proverbs chapter 8, verse 9 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" } ]

trespass.\n6 Every male of the priestly race, shall eat this flesh in a holy place, because it is most holy.\n7 As the sacrifice for sin is offered, so is also that for a trespass: the same shall be

is baked in the oven, and whatsoever is dressed on the gridiron, or in the fryingpan, shall be the priest's that offereth it:\n10 Whether they be tempered with oil, or dry, all the sons of Aaron shall

remain until the morrow, it is lawful to eat it:\n17 But whatsoever shall be found on the third day shall be consumed with fire.\n18 If any man eat of the flesh of the victim of peace offerings on the third day, the oblation shall be of no effect, neither shall it profit the offerer: yea rather whatsoever soul shall defile itself with such meat, shall be guilty of transgression.\n19 The flesh that hath touched any unclean thing, shall not be eaten, but shall be burnt with fire: he that is clean shall eat of it.\n20 If any one that is defiled shall eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which is offered to the Lord, he shall be cut off from his people.\n21 And he that hath touched the uncleanness of man, or of beast, or of any thing that can defile, and shall eat of such

fat of a carcass that hath died of itself, and of a beast that was caught by another beast, you shall have for divers uses.\n25 If any man eat the fat that should be offered for the burnt sacrifice of the Lord, he shall perish out of his people.\n26 Moreover you shall not eat the blood of any creature whatsoever, whether of birds or beasts.\n27 Every one that eateth blood, shall perish from among the people.\n28 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n29 Speak to the children of Israel, saying: He that offereth a victim of peace offerings to the Lord, let him offer therewith a sacrifice also, that is, the libations thereof.\n30 He shall hold in his hands the fat of the victim, and the breast: and when he hath offered and consecrated both to the Lord, he shall deliver them to the priest,\n31 Who shall burn the fat upon the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.\n32 The right shoulder also of the victims of peace offerings shall fall to the priest for firstfruits.\n33 He among the sons of Aaron, that offereth the blood, and the fat, he shall have the right shoulder also for his portion.\n34 For the breast that is elevated and the shoulder that is separated I have taken of the children of Israel, from off their victims of peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest, and to his sons, by a law for ever, from all the people of Israel.\n35 This is the anointing of Aaron and his sons, in the ceremonies of the Lord, in the day when Moses offered them, that they might do the office of priesthood,\n36 And the things that the Lord commanded to be given them by the children of Israel, by a perpetual observance in their generations.\n37 This is the law of holocaust, and of the sacrifice for sin, and for trespass, and for

Therefore this matter of his dreams and words ministered nourishment to their envy and hatred.\n9 He dreamed also another dream, which he told his brethren, saying: I saw in a dream, as it were the sun, and the moon, and eleven stars worshipping me.\n10 And when he had told this to his father and brethren, his father rebuked him, and said: What meaneth this dream that thou hast dreamed? shall I and thy mother, and thy brethren worship thee upon the earth?\n11 His brethren therefore envied him: but his father considered the thing with himself.\n12 And when his brethren abode in Sichem feeding their father's flocks,\n13 Israel said to him: Thy brethren feed the sheep in Sichem: come, I will send thee to them. And when he answered:\n14 I am ready: he said to him: Go, and see if all things be well with thy brethren, and the cattle: and bring me word again what is doing. So being sent from the vale of Hebron, he came to Sichem:\n15 And a man found him there wandering in the field, and asked what he sought.\n16 But he answered: I seek my brethren; tell me where they feed the flocks.\n17 And the man said to him: They are departed from this place: for I heard them say: Let us go to Dothain. And Joseph went forward after his brethren, and found them in Dothain.\n18 And when they saw him afar off, before he came nigh them, they thought to kill him.\n19 And said one to another: Behold the dreamer cometh.\n20 Come, let us kill him, and cast him into some old pit: and we will say: Some evil beast hath devoured him: and then it shall appear what his dreams avail him:\n21 And Ruben hearing this, endeavoured to deliver him out of their hands, and said:\n22 Do not take away his life, nor shed his blood: but cast him into this pit, that is in the wilderness, and keep your hands harmless: now he said this, being desirous to deliver him out of their hands and to restore him to his father.\n23 And as soon as he came to his brethren, they forthwith stript him of his outside coat, that was of divers colours:\n24 And cast him into an old pit, where there was no water.\n25 And sitting down to eat bread, they saw some Ismaelites on their way coming from Galaad, with their camels, carrying spices, and balm, and myrrh to Egypt.\n26 And Juda said to his brethren: What will it profit us to kill our brother, and conceal his blood?\n27 It is better that he be sold to the Ismaelites, and that our hands be not defiled: for he is our brother and our flesh. His brethren agreed to his words.\n28 And when the Madianite merchants passed by, they drew him out of the pit, and sold him to the Ismaelites, for twenty pieces of silver: and they led him into Egypt.\n29 And Ruben, returning to the pit, found not the boy:\n30 And rending his garments he went to his brethren, and said: The boy doth not appear and whither shall I go?\n31 And they took his coat, and dipped it in the blood of a kid, which they had killed:\n32 Sending some to carry it to their father, and to say: This we have found: see whether it be thy son's coat, or not.\n33 And the father acknowledging it, said: It is my son's coat, an evil wild beast hath eaten him, a beast hath devoured Joseph.\n34 And tearing his garments, he put on sackcloth, mourning for his son a long time.\n35 And all his children being gathered together to comfort their father in his sorrow, he would not receive comfort, but said: I will go down to my son into hell, mourning.

Now he was at that time king in Moab.\n5 He sent therefore messengers to Balaam the son of Beer, a soothsayer, who dwelt by the river of the land of the children of Ammon, to call him, and to say: Behold a people is come out of Egypt, that hath covered the face of the earth, sitting over against me.\n6 Come therefore, and curse this people, because it is mightier than I: if by any means I may beat them and drive them out of my land: for I know that he whom thou shalt bless is blessed, and he whom thou shalt curse is cursed.\n7 And the ancients of Moab, and the elders of Madian, went with the price of divination in their hands.

but the bearers thereof desired it might not be bestowed on the sacrifices, because it was not necessary, but might be deputed for other charges.\n20 So the money was appointed by him that sent it to the sacrifice of Hercules: but because of them that carried it was employed for the making of galleys.\n21 Now when Apollonius the son of Mnestheus was sent into Egypt to treat with the nobles of king Philometor, and Antiochus understood that he was wholly excluded from the affairs of the kingdom, consulting his own interest, he departed thence and came to Joppe, and from thence to Jerusalem:\n22 Where he was received in a, magnificent manner by Jason, and the city, and came in with torch lights, and with praises, and from thence he returned with his army into Phenicia.\n23 Three years afterwards Jason sent Menelaus, brother of the aforesaid Simon, to carry money to the king, and to bring answers from him concerning certain necessary affairs.\n24 But he being recommended to the king, when he had magnified the appearance of his power, got the high priesthood for himself, by offering more than Jason by three hundred talents of silver.\n25 So having received the king's mandate, he returned bringing nothing worthy of the high priesthood: but having the mind of a cruel tyrant, and the rage of a savage beast.\n26 Then Jason, who had undermined his own brother, being himself undermined, was driven out a fugitive into the country of the Ammonites.\n27 So Menelaus got the principality: but as for the money he had promised to the king he took no care, when Sostratus the governor of the castle called for it.\n28 For to him appertained the gathering of the taxes: wherefore they were both called before the king.\n29 And Menelaus was removed from the priesthood, Lysimachus his brother succeeding: and Sostratus was made governor of the Cyprians.\n30 When these things were in doing, it fell out that they of Tharsus and Mallos raised a sedition, because they were given for a gift to Antiochis, the king's concubine.\n31 The king therefore went in all haste to appease them, leaving Andronicus, one of his nobles, for his deputy.\n32 Then Menelaus supposing that he had found a convenient time, having stolen certain vessels of gold out of the temple, gave them to Andronicus, and others he had sold at Tyre, and in the neighbouring cities.\n33 Which when Onias understood most certainly, he reproved him, keeping himself in a safe place at Antioch beside Daphne.\n34 Whereupon Menelaus coming to Andronicus, desired him to kill Onias. And he went to Onias, and gave him his right hand with an oath, and (though he were suspected by him) persuaded him to come forth out of the sanctuary, and immediately slew him, without any regard to justice.\n35 For which cause not only the Jews, but also the other nations, conceived indignation, and were much grieved for the unjust murder of so great a man.\n36 And when the king was come back from the places of Cilicia, the Jews that were at Antioch, and also the Greeks went to him: complaining of the unjust murder of Onias.\n37 Antiochus therefore was grieved in his mind for Onias, and being moved to pity, shed tears, remembering the sobriety and modesty of the deceased.\n38 And being inflamed to anger, he commanded Andronicus to be stripped of his purple, and to be led about through all the city: and that in the same place wherein he had committed the impiety against Onias, the sacrilegious wretch should be put to death, the Lord repaying him his deserved punishment.\n39 Now when many sacrileges had been committed by Lysimachus in the temple by the counsel of Menelaus, and the rumour of it was spread abroad, the multitude gathered themselves together against Lysimachus, a great quantity of gold being already carried away.\n40 Wherefore the multitude making an insurrection, and their minds being filled with anger, Lysimachus armed about three thousand men, and began to use violence, one Tyrannus being captain, a man far gone both in age, and in madness.\n41 But when they perceived the attempt of Lysimachus, some caught up stones, some strong clubs: and some threw ashes upon Lysimachus,\n42 And many of them were wounded, and some struck down to the ground, but all were put to flight: and as for the sacrilegious fellow himself, they slew him beside the treasury.\n43 Now concerning these matters, an accusation was laid against Menelaus.\n44 And when the king was come to Tyre, three men were sent from the ancients to plead the cause before him.\n45 But Menelaus being convicted, promised Ptolemee to give him much money to persuade the king to favour him.\n46 So Ptolemee went to the king in a certain court where he was, as it were to cool himself, and brought him to be of another mind:\n47 So Menelaus who was guilty of all the evil, was acquitted by him of the accusations: and those poor men, who, if they had pleaded their cause even before Scythians, should have been judged innocent, were condemned to death.\n48 Thus they that prosecuted the cause for the city, and for the people, and the sacred vessels, did soon suffer unjust punishment.\n49 Wherefore even the Tyrians being moved with indignation, were liberal towards their burial.\n50 And so through the covetousness of them that were in power, Menelaus continued in authority, increasing in malice to the betraying of the citizens.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you read Acts chapter 18, verse 14?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the New Testament at Acts 18:14 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"And when Paul was beginning to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews: If it were some matter of injustice, or an heinous deed, O Jews, I should with reason bear with you.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Tell me what Ezekiel 22:9 says", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Ezekiel chapter 22, verse 9, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"Slanderers have been in thee to shed blood, and they have eaten upon the mountains in thee, they have committed wickedness in the midst of thee.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you quote Ezra 9:8 for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Ezra 9:8 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And now as a little, and for a moment has our prayer been made before the Lord our God, to leave us a remnant, and give us a pin in his holy place, and that our God would enlighten our eyes, and would give us a little life in our bondage.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you pinpoint the book and chapter of \"And the elder bore a son, and she called his name Moab: he is the father of the Moabites unto this day.\" for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're asking about is in Genesis, chapter 19.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\nGenesis Chapter 19\n1 And the two angels came to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of the city.

And they said: No, but we will abide in the street.\n3 He pressed them very much to turn in unto him: and when they were come into his house, he made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread and they ate:\n4 But before they went to bed, the men of the city beset the house both young and old, all the people together.\n5 And they called Lot, and said to him: Where are the men that came in to thee at night? bring them out hither that we may know them:\n6 Lot went out to them, and shut the door after him, and said:\n7 Do not so, I beseech you, my brethren, do not commit this evil.\n8 I have two daughters who as yet have not known man: I will bring them out to you, and abuse you them as it shall please you, so that you do no evil to these men, because they are come in under the shadow of my roof.\n9 But they said: Get thee back thither. And again: Thou camest in, said they, as a, stranger, was it to be a judge? therefore we will afflict thee more than them. And they pressed very violently upon Lot: and they were even at the point of breaking open the doors.\n10 And behold the men put out their hand, and drew in Lot unto them, and shut the door:\n11 And them that were without, they struck with blindness from the least to the greatest, so that they could not find the door.\n12 And they said to Lot: Hast thou here any of thine? son in law, or sons, or daughters, all that are thine bring them out of this city:\n13 For we will destroy this place, because their cry is grown loud before the Lord, who hath sent us to destroy them.\n14 So Lot went out, and spoke to his sons in law that were to have his daughters, and said: Arise: get you out of this place, because the Lord will destroy this city. And he seemed to them to speak as it were in jest.\n15 And when it was morning, the angels pressed him, saying: Arise, take thy wife, and the two daughters which thou hast: lest thou also perish in the wickedness of the city.\n16 And as he lingered, they took his hand, and the hand of his wife, and of his two daughters, because the Lord spared him.\n17 And they brought him forth, and set him without the city: and there they spoke to him, saying: Save thy life: look not back, neither stay thou in all the country about: but save thyself in the mountain, lest thou be also consumed.\n18 And Lot said to them: I beseech thee my Lord,\n19 Because thy servant hath found grace before thee, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewn to me, in saving my life, and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil seize me, and I die:\n20 There is this city here at hand, to which I may flee, it is a little one, and I shall be saved in it: is it not a little one, and my soul shall live?\n21 And he said to him: Behold also in this, I have heard thy prayers, not to destroy the city for which thou hast spoken.\n22 Make haste and be saved there, because I cannot do any thing till thou go in thither. Therefore the name of that city was called Segor.\n23 The sun was risen upon the earth, and Lot entered into Segor.\n24 And the Lord rained upon Sodom and Gomorrha brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven.\n25 And he destroyed these cities, and all the country about, all the inhabitants of the cities, and all things that spring from the earth.\n26 And his wife looking behind her, was turned into a statue of salt.\n27 And Abraham got up early in the morning and in the place where he had stood before with the Lord,\n28 He looked towards Sodom and Gomorrha, and the whole land of that country: and he saw the ashes rise up from the earth as the smoke of a furnace.\n29 Now when God destroyed the cities of that country, remembering Abraham, he delivered Lot out of the destruction of the cities wherein he had dwelt.\n30 And Lot went up out of Segor, and abode in the mountain, and his two daughters with him, (for he was afraid to stay in Segor,) and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters with him.\n31 And the elder said to the younger Our father is old, and there is no man left on the earth, to come in unto us after the manner of the whole earth.\n32 Come, let us make him drunk with wine, and let us lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.\n33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the elder went in and lay with her father: but he perceived not neither when his daughter lay down, nor when she rose up.\n34 And the next day the elder said to the younger: Behold I lay last night with my father, let us make him drink wine also to night, and thou shalt lie with him, that we may save seed of our father.\n35 They made their father drink wine that night also, and the younger daughter went in, and lay with him: and neither then did he perceive when she lay down, nor when she rose up.\n36 So the two daughters of Lot were with child by their father.\n37 And the elder bore a son, and she called his name Moab: he is the father of the Moabites unto this day.\n38 The younger also bore a son, and she called his name Ammon, that is, the son of my people: he is the father of the Ammonites unto this day.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Find and read Genesis chapter 29, verse 27", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Genesis chapter 29, verse 27, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"Make up the week of days of this match: and I will give thee her also, for the service that thou shalt render me other seven years.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be said:\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That verse comes from Hebrews, chapter 3.\n\nCheck out the whole chapter:\nHebrews Chapter 3\n1 Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly vocation, consider the apostle and high priest of our confession, Jesus:\n2 Who is faithful to him that made him, as was also Moses in all his house.\n3 For this man was counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, by so much as he that hath built the house, hath greater honour than the house.\n4 For every house is built by some man: but he that created all things, is God.\n5 And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be said:\n6 But Christ as the Son in his own house: which house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and glory of hope unto the end.\n7 Wherefore, as the Holy Ghost saith: To day if you shall hear his voice,\n8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation; in the day of temptation in the desert,\n9 Where your fathers tempted me, proved and saw my works,\n10 Forty years: for which cause I was offended with this generation, and I said: They always err in heart.

For Gabaon was a great city, and one of the royal cities, and greater than the town of Hai, and all its fighting men were most valiant.\n3 Therefore Adonisedec king of Jerusalem sent to Oham king of Hebron, and to Pharam king of Jerimoth, and to Japhia king of Lachis, and to Dabir king of Eglon, saying:\n4 Come up to me, and bring help, that we may take Gabaon, because it hath gone over to Josue, and to the children of Israel.\n5 So the five kings of the Amorrhites being assembled together went up: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jerimoth, the king of Lachis, the king of Eglon, they and their armies, and camped about Gabaon, laying siege to it.\n6 But the inhabitants of the city of Gabaon which was besieged, sent to Josue, who then abode in the camp at Galgal, and said to him: Withdraw not thy hands from helping thy servants: come up quickly and save us, and bring us succour: for all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwell in the mountains, are gathered together against us.\n7 And Josue went up from Galgal, and all the army of the warriors with him, most valiant men.\n8 And the Lord said to Josue: Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thy hands: none of them shall be able to stand against thee.\n9 So Josue going up from Galgal all the night, came upon them suddenly.\n10 And the Lord troubled them at the sight of Israel: and he slew them with a great slaughter in Gabaon, and pursued them by the way of the ascent to Beth-horon, and cut them off all the way to Azeca and Maceda.\n11 And when they were fleeing from the children of Israel, and were in the descent of Beth-horon, the Lord cast down upon them great stones from heaven as far as Azeca: and many more were killed with the hailstones than were slain by the swords of the children of Israel.\n12 Then Josue spoke to the Lord, in the day that he delivered the Amorrhite in the sight of the children of Israel, and he said before them: Move not, O sun, toward Gabaon, nor thou, O moon, toward the valley of Ajalon.\n13 And the sun and the moon stood still, till the people revenged themselves of their enemies. Is not this written in the book of the just? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down the space of one day.\n14 There was not before nor after so long a day, the Lord obeying the voice of a man, and fighting for Israel.\n15 And Josue returned with all Israel into the camp of Galgal.\n16 For the five kings were fled, and had hidden themselves in a cave of the city of Maceda.\n17 And it was told Josue that the five kings were found hidden in a cave of the city of Maceda.\n18 And he commanded them that were with him, saying: Roll great stones to the mouth of the cave, and set careful men, to keep them shut up:\n19 And stay you not, but pursue after the enemies, and kill all the hindermost of them as they flee, and do not suffer them whom the Lord God hath delivered into your hands to shelter themselves in their cities.\n20 So the enemies being slain with a great slaughter, and almost utterly consumed, they that were able to escape from Israel, entered into fenced cities.\n21 And all the army returned to Josue in Maceda, where the camp then was, in good health and without the loss of any one: and no man durst move his tongue against the children of Israel.\n22 And Josue gave orders, saying: Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth to me the five kings that lie hid therein.\n23 And the ministers did as they were commanded: and they brought out to him the five kings out of the cave: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jerimoth, the king of Lachis, the king of Eglon.\n24 And when they were Drought out to him, he called all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the army that were with him: Go, and set your feet on the necks of these kings. And when they had gone, and put their feet upon the necks of them lying under them,\n25 He said again to them: Fear not, neither be ye dismayed, take courage and be strong: for so will the Lord do to all your enemies, against whom you fight.\n26 And Josue struck, and slew them, and hanged them upon five gibbets, and they hung until the evening.\n27 And when the sun was down, he commanded the soldiers to take them down from the gibbets. And after they were taken down, they cast them into the cave where they had lain hid, and put great stones at the mouth thereof, which remain until this day.\n28 The same day Josue took Maceda and destroyed it, with the edge of the sword, and killed the king and all the inhabitants thereof: he left not in it the least remains. And he did to the king of Maceda, as he had done to the king of Jericho.\n29 And he passed from Maceda with all Israel to Lebna, and fought against it:\n30 And the Lord delivered it with the king thereof into the hands of Israel: and they destroyed the city with the edge of the sword, and all the inhabitants thereof.

of Babylon came, he and all his army against Jerusalem: and they surrounded it: and raised works round about it.\n2 And the city was shut up and besieged till the eleventh year of king Sedecias,\n3 The ninth day of the month: and a famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land.\n4 And a breach was made into the city: and all the men of war fled in the night between the two walls by the king's garden, (now the Chaldees besieged the city round about,) and Sedecias fled by the way that leadeth to the plains of the wilderness.\n5 And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all the warriors that were with him were scattered, and left him:\n6 So they took the king, and brought him to the king of Babylon to Reblatha, and he gave judgment upon him.\n7 And he slew the sons of Sedecias before his face, and he put out his eyes, and bound him with chains, and brought him to Babylon.\n8 In the fifth month, the seventh day of the month, that is, the nineteenth year of the king of Babylon, came Nabuzardan commander of the army, a servant of the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem.\n9 And he burnt the house of the Lord, and the king's house, and the houses of Jerusalem, and every house he burnt with fire.\n10 And all the army of the Chaldees, which was with the commander of the troops, broke down the walls of Jerusalem round about.\n11 And Nabuzardan the commander of the army, carried away the rest of the people that remained in the city, and the fugitives that had gone over to the king of Babylon, and the remnant of the common people.\n12 But of the poor of the land he left some dressers of vines and husbandmen.\n13 And the pillars of brass that were in the temple of the Lord, and the bases, and the sea of brass which was in the house of the Lord, the Chaldees broke in pieces, and carried all the brass of them to Babylon.\n14 They took away also the pots of brass, and the mazers, and the forks, and the cups, and the mortars, and all the vessels of brass with which they ministered.\n15 Moreover also the censers, and the bowls, such as were of gold in gold, and such as were of silver in silver, the general of the army took away.\n16 That is, two pillars, one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made in the temple of the Lord: the brass of all these vessels was without weight.\n17 One pillar was eighteen cubits high, and the chapiter of brass which was upon it was three cubits high: and the network, and the pomegranates that were upon the chapiter of the pillar, were all of brass: and the second pillar had the like adorning.\n18 And the general of the army took Seraias the chief priest, and Sophonias the second priest, and three doorkeepers.\n19 And out of the city one eunuch, who was captain over the men of war: and five men of them that had stood before the king, whom he found in the city, and Sopher the captain of the army who exercised the young soldiers of the people of the land: and threescore men of the common people, who were found in the city.\n20 These Nabuzardan the general of the army took away, and carried them to the king of Babylon to Reblatha.\n21 And the king of Babylon smote them, and slew them at Reblatha in the land of Emath: so Juda was carried away out of their land.\n22 But over the people that remained in the land of Juda, which Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had left, he gave the government to Godolias the son of Ahicam the son of Saphan.\n23 And when all the captains of the soldiers had heard this, they and the

Thanehumeth the Netophathite, and Jezonias the son of Maachathi, they and their men.\n24 And Godolias swore to them and to their men, saying: Be not afraid to serve the Chaldees: stay in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.\n25 But it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ismael the son of Nathanias, the son of Elisama of the seed royal came, and ten men with him: and smote Godolias so that he died: and also the Jews and the Chaldees that were with him in Maspha.\n26 And all the people both little and great, and the captains of the soldiers, rising up went to Egypt, fearing the Chaldees.\n27 And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Joachin king of Juda, in the twelfth month the seven and twentieth day of the month: Evilmerodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, lifted up the head of Joachin king of Juda out of prison.\n28 And he spoke kindly to him: and he set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon.\n29 And he changed his garments which he had in prison, and he ate bread always before him, all the days of his life.\n30 And he appointed him a continual

Here it is:\n1 Samuel Chapter 17\n1 Now the Philistines gathering together their troops to battle, assembled at Socho of Juda, and camped between Socho and Azeca in the borders of Dommim.\n2 And Saul and the children of Israel being gathered together came to the valley of Terebinth, and they set the army in array to fight against the Philistines.\n3 And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.\n4 And there went out a man baseborn from the camp of the Philistines named Goliath, of Geth, whose height was six cubits and a span:\n5 And he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was clothed with a coat of mail with scales, and the weight of his coat of mail was five thousand sicles of brass:\n6 And he had greaves of brass on his legs, and a buckler of brass covered his shoulders.\n7 And the staff of his spear was like a weaver's beam, and the head of his spear weighed six hundred sicles of iron: and his armourbearer went before him.\n8 And standing he cried out to the bands of Israel, and said to them: Why are you come out prepared to fight? am not I a Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose out a man of you, and let him come down and fight hand to hand.\n9 If he be able to fight with me, and kill me, we will be servants to you: but if I prevail against him, and kill him, you shall be servants, and shall serve us.\n10 And the Philistine said: I have defied the bands of Israel this day: Give me a man, and let him fight with me hand to hand.\n11 And Saul and all the Israelites hearing these words of the Philistine were dismayed, and greatly afraid.\n12 Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem Juda before mentioned, whose name was Isai, who had eight sons, and was an old man in the days of Saul, and of great age among men.\n13 And his three eldest sons followed Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that went to the battle, were Eliab the firstborn, and the second Abinadab, and the third Samma.\n14 But David was the youngest. So the three eldest having followed Saul,\n15 David went, and returned from Saul, to feed his father's flock at Bethlehem.\n16 Now the Philistine came out morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.\n17 And Isai said to David his son: Take for thy brethren an ephi of frumenty, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brethren.\n18 And carry these ten little cheeses to the tribune: and go see thy brethren, if they are well: and learn with whom they are placed.\n19 But Saul, and they, and all the children of Israel were in the valley of Terebinth fighting against the Philistines.\n20 David therefore arose in the morning, and gave the charge of the flock to the keeper: and went away loaded as Isai had commanded him. And he came to the place of Magala, and to the army, which was going out to fight, and shouted for the battle.\n21 For Israel had put themselves in array, and the Philistines who stood against them were prepared.\n22 And David leaving the vessels which he had brought, under the care of the keeper of the baggage, ran to the place of the battle and asked if all things went well with his brethren.\n23 And as he talked with them, that baseborn man whose name was Goliath, the Philistine, of Geth, shewed himself coming up from the camp of the Philistines: and he spoke according to the same words, and David heard them.\n24 And all the Israelites when they saw the man, fled from his face, fearing him exceedingly.\n25 And some one of Israel said: Have you seen this man that is come up, for he is come up to defy Israel. And the man that shall slay him, the king will enrich with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and will make his father's house free from tribute in Israel.\n26 And David spoke to the men that stood by him, saying: What shall be given to the man that shall kill this Philistine, and shall take away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?\n27 And the people answered him the same words saying: These things shall be given to the man that shall slay him.\n28 Now when Eliab his eldest brother heard this, when he was speaking with others, he was angry with David, and said: Why earnest thou hither? and why didst thou leave those few sheep in the desert? I know thy pride, and the wickedness of thy heart: that thou art come down to see the battle.\n29 And David said: What have I done? is there not cause to speak?\n30 And he turned a little aside from him to another: and said the same word. And the people answered him as before.\n31 And the words which David spoke were heard, and were rehearsed before Saul.\n32 And when he was brought to him, he said to him: Let not any man's heart be dismayed in him: I thy servant will go, and will fight against the Philistine.\n33 And Saul said to David: Thou art not able to withstand this Philistine, nor to fight against him: for thou art but a boy, but he is a warrior from his youth.\n34 And David said to Saul: Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, or a bear, and took a ram out of the midst of the flock:\n35 And I pursued after them, and struck them, and delivered it out of their mouth: and they rose up against me, and I caught them by the throat, and I strangled and killed them.\n36 For I thy servant have killed both a lion and a bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be also as one of them. I will go now, and take away the reproach of the people: for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, who hath dared to curse the army of the living God?\n37 And David said: The Lord who delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said to David: Go, and the Lord be with thee.\n38 And Saul clothed David with his garments, and put a helmet of brass upon his head, and armed him with a coat of mail.\n39 And David having girded his sword upon his armour, began to try if he could walk in armour: for he was not accustomed to it. And David said to Saul: I cannot go thus, for I am not used to it. And he laid them off,\n40 And he took his staff, which he had always in his hands: and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them into the shepherd's scrip, which he had with him, and he took a sling in his hand, and went forth against the Philistine.\n41 And the Philistine came on, and drew nigh against David, and his armourbearer before him.\n42 And when the Philistine looked, and beheld David, he despised him. For he was a young man, ruddy, and of a comely countenance.\n43 And the Philistine said to David: Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with a staff? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.\n44 And he said to David: Come to me, and I will give thy flesh to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.\n45 And David said to the Philistine: Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, which thou hast defied.\n46 This day, and the Lord will deliver thee into my hand, and I will slay thee, and take away thy head from thee: and I will give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth: that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.\n47 And all this assembly shall know, that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for it is his battle, and he will deliver you into our hands.\n48 And when the Philistine arose and was coming, and drew nigh to meet David, David made haste, and ran to the fight to meet the Philistine.\n49 And he put his hand into his scrip, and took a stone, and cast it with the sling, and fetching it about struck the Philistine in the forehead: and the stone was fixed in his forehead, and he fell on his face upon the earth.\n50 And David prevailed over the Philistine, with a sling and a stone, and he struck, and slew the Philistine. And as David had no sword in his hand,\n51 He ran, and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath, and slew him, and cut off his head. And the Philistines seeing that their champion was dead, fled away.\n52 And the men of Israel and Juda rising up shouted, and pursued after the Philistines till they came to the valley and to the gates of Accaron, and there fell many wounded of the Philistines in the way of Saraim, and as far as Geth, and as far as Accaron.\n53 And the children of Israel returning, after they had pursued the Philistines, fell upon their camp.\n54 And David taking the head of the Philistine brought it to Jerusalem: but his armour he put in his tent.\n55 Now at the time that Saul saw David going out against the Philistines, he said to Abner the captain of the army: Of what family is this young man descended, Abner? And Abner said: As thy soul liveth, O king, I know not.\n56 And the king said: Inquire thou, whose son this man is.\n57 And when David was returned, after the Philistine was slain, Abner took him, and brought him in before Saul, with the head of the Philistine in his hand.\n58 And Saul said to him: Young man, of what family art thou?

I beseech thee, do not torment me.\n29 For he commanded the unclean spirit to go out of the man. For many times it seized him, and he was bound with chains, and kept in fetters; and breaking the bonds, he was driven by the devil into the deserts.\n30 And Jesus asked him, saying: What is thy name? But he said: Legion; because many devils were entered into him.\n31 And they besought him that he would not command them to go into the abyss.\n32 And there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain; and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them.

I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.\n18 For amen I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot, or one tittle shall not pass of the law, till all be fulfilled.\n19 He therefore that shall break one of these least commandments, and shall so teach men, shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven.

It shall be an everlasting ordinance in your generations. They shall not possess any other thing,\n24 But be content with the oblation or tithes, which I have separated for their uses and necessities.\n25 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n26 Command the Levites, and declare unto them: When you shall receive of the children of Israel the tithes, which I have given you, offer the firstfruits of them to the Lord, that is to say, the tenth part of the tenth:\n27 That it may be reckoned to you as an oblation of firstfruits, as well of the barnfloors as of the winepresses:\n28 And of all the things of which you receive tithes, offer the firstfruits to the Lord, and give them to Aaron the priest.\n29 All the things that you shall offer of the tithes, and shall separate for the gifts of the Lord, shall be the best and choicest things.\n30 And thou shalt say to them: If you offer all the goodly and the better things of the tithes, it shall be reckoned to you as if you had given the firstfruits of the barnfloor and the winepress:\n31 And you shall eat them in all your places, both you and your families: because it is your reward for the ministry, wherewith you serve in the tabernacle of the testimony.\n32 And you shall not sin in this point, by reserving the choicest and fat things to yourselves, lest you profane the oblations of the children of Israel, and die.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Psalm 11:9 please", "role":

Debbora therefore arose, and went with Barac to Cedes.\n10 And he called unto him Zabulon and Nepbtali, and went up with ten thousand fighting men, having Debbora in his company.\n11 Now Haber the Cinite had some time before departed from the rest of the Cinites his brethren the sons of Hobab, the kinsman of Moses: and had pitched his tents unto the valley which is called Sellnim, and was near Cedes.\n12 And it was told Sisara, that Barac the son of Ablinoem was gone up to mount Thabor:\n13 And he gathered together his nine hundred chariots armed with scythes, and all his army from Haroseth of the Gentiles to the torrent Cison.\n14 And Debbora said to Barac: Arise, for this is the day wherein the Lord hath delivered Sisara into thy hands: behold he is thy leader. And Barac went down from mount Thabor, and ten thousand fighting men with him.\n15 And the Lord struck a terror into Sisara, and all his chariots, and all his multitude, with the edge of the sword, at the sight of Barac, insomuch that Sisara leaping down from off his chariot, fled away on foot.\n16 And Barac pursued after the fleeing chariots and the army unto Haroseth of the Gentiles, and all the multitude of the enemies was utterly destroyed.\n17 But Sisara fleeing came to the tent of Jahel the wife of Haber the Cinite, for there was peace between Jabin the king of Asor, and the house of Haber the Cinite.\n18 And Jahel went forth to meet Sisara, and said to him: Come in to me, my lord, come in, fear not. He went in to her tent, and being covered by her with a cloak,\n19 Said to her: Give me, I beseech thee, a little water, for I am very thirsty. She opened a bottle of milk, and gave him to drink, and covered him.\n20 And Sisara said to her: Stand before the door of the tent, and when any shall come and inquire of thee, saying: Is there any man here? thou shalt say: There is none.\n21 So Jahel Haber's wife took a nail of the tent, and taking also a hammer: and going in softly, and with silence, she put the nail upon the temples of his head, and striking it With the hammer, drove it through his brain fast into the ground: and so passing from deep sleep to death, he fainted away and died.\n22 And behold Barac came pursuing after Sisara: and Jahel went out to meet him, and said to him: Come, and I will shew thee, the man whom thou seekest.

But they appointed him thirty pieces of silver.\n16 And from thenceforth he sought opportunity to betray him.\n17 And on the first day of the Azymes, the disciples came to Jesus, saying: Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the pasch?\n18 But Jesus said: Go ye into the city to a certain man, and say to him: the master saith, My time is near at hand, with thee I make the pasch with my disciples.\n19 And the disciples did as Jesus appointed to them, and they prepared the pasch.\n20 But when it was evening, he sat down with his twelve disciples.\n21 And whilst they were eating, he said: Amen I say to you, that one of you is about to betray me.\n22 And they being very much troubled, began every one to say: Is it I, Lord?\n23 But he answering, said: He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, he shall betray me.\n24 The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man shall be betrayed: it were better for him, if that man had not been born.\n25 And Judas that betrayed him, answering, said: Is it I, Rabbi? He saith to him: Thou hast said it.\n26 And whilst they were at supper, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke: and gave to his disciples, and said: Take ye, and eat. This is my body.\n27 And taking the chalice, he gave thanks, and gave to them, saying: Drink ye all of this.\n28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which shall be shed for many unto remission of sins.\n29 And I say to you, I will not drink from henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I shall drink it with you new in the kingdom of my Father.\n30 And a hymn being said, they went out unto mount Olivet.\n31 Then Jesus said to them: All you shall be scandalized in me this night.

Nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.\n40 And he cometh to his disciples, and findeth them asleep, and he saith to Peter: What? Could you not watch one hour with me?\n41 Watch ye, and pray that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh weak.\n42 Again the second time, he went and prayed, saying: My Father, if this chalice may not pass away, but I must drink it, thy will be done.\n43 And he cometh again and findeth them sleeping: for their eyes were heavy.\n44 And leaving them, he went again: and he prayed the third time, saying the selfsame word.\n45 Then he cometh to his disciples, and saith to them: Sleep ye now and take your rest; behold the hour is at hand, and the Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners.\n46 Rise, let us go: behold he is at hand that will betray me.\n47 As he yet spoke, behold Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and the ancients of the people.\n48 And he that betrayed him, gave them a sign, saying: Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he, hold him fast.\n49 And forthwith coming to Jesus, he said: Hail, Rabbi. And he kissed him.\n50 And Jesus said to him: Friend, whereto art thou come? Then they came up, and laid hands on Jesus, and held him.\n51 And behold one of them that were with Jesus, stretching forth his hand, drew out his sword: and striking the servant of the high priest, cut off his ear.\n52 Then Jesus saith to him: Put up again thy sword into its place: for all that take the sword shall perish with the sword.\n53 Thinkest thou that I cannot ask my Father, and he will give me presently more than twelve legions of angels?\n54 How then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that so it must be done?\n55 In that same hour Jesus said to the multitudes: You are come out as it were to a robber with swords and clubs to apprehend me. I sat daily with you, teaching in the temple, and you laid not hands on me.\n56 Now all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then the disciples all leaving him, fled.\n57 But they holding Jesus led him to Caiphas the high priest, where the scribes and the ancients were assembled.\n58 And Peter followed him afar off, even to the court of the high priest. And going in, he sat with the servants, that he might see the end.\n59 And the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death:\n60 And they found not, whereas many false witnesses had come in. And last of all there came two false witnesses:\n61 And they said: This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and after three days to rebuild it.\n62 And the high priest rising up, said to him: Answerest thou nothing to the things which these witness against thee?\n63 But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest said to him: I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us if thou be the Christ the Son of God.\n64 Jesus saith to him: Thou hast said it. Nevertheless I say to you, hereafter you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of the power of God, and coming in the clouds of heaven.\n65 Then the high priests rent his garments, saying: He hath blasphemed; what further need have we of witnesses? Behold, now you have heard the blasphemy:\n66 What think you? But they answering, said: He is guilty of death.\n67 Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him: and others struck his face with the palms of their hands,\n68 Saying: Prophesy unto us, O Christ, who is he that struck thee?\n69 But Peter sat without in the court: and there came to him a servant maid, saying: Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilean.\n70 But he denied before them all, saying: I know not what thou sayest.\n71 And as he went out of the gate, another maid saw him, and she saith to them that were there: This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth.\n72 And again he denied with an oath, I know not the man.\n73 And after a little while they came that stood by, and said to Peter: Surely thou also art one of them; for even thy speech doth discover thee.\n74 Then he began to curse and to swear that he knew not the man.

Cethim, had overthrown Darius king of the Persians and Medes:\n2 He fought many battles, and took the strong holds of all, and slew the kings of the earth:\n3 And he went through even to the ends of the earth, and took the spoils of many nations: and the earth was quiet before him.\n4 And he gathered a power, and a very strong army: and his heart was exalted and lifted up.\n5 And he subdued countries of nations, and princes: and they became tributaries to him.\n6 And after these things, he fell down upon his bed, and knew that he should die.\n7 And he called his servants the nobles that were brought up with him from his youth: and he divided his kingdom among them, while he was yet alive.\n8 And Alexander reigned twelve years, and he died.\n9 And his servants made themselves kings every one in his place:\n10 And they all put crowns upon themselves after his death, and their sons after them many years, and evils were multiplied in the earth.\n11 And there came out of them a wicked root, Antiochus the Illustrious, the son of king Antiochus, who had been a hostage at Rome: and he reigned in the hundred and thirty-seventh year of the kingdom of the Greeks.\n12 In those days there went out of Israel wicked men, and they persuaded many, saying: Let us go, and make a covenant with the heathens that are round about us: for since we departed from them, many evils have befallen us.\n13 And the word seemed good in their eyes.\n14 And some of the people determined to do this, and went to the king: and he gave them license to do after the ordinances of the heathens.\n15 And they built a place of exercise in Jerusalem, according to the laws of the nations:\n16 And they made themselves prepuces, and departed from the holy covenant, and joined themselves to the heathens, and were sold to do evil.\n17 And the kingdom was established before Antiochus, and he had a mind to reign over the land of Egypt, that he might reign over two kingdoms.\n18 And he entered into Egypt with a great multitude, with chariots and elephants, and horsemen, and a great number of ships:\n19 And he made war against Ptolemee king of Egypt, but Ptolemee was afraid at his presence, and fled, and many were wounded unto death.\n20 And he took the strong cities in the land of Egypt: and he took the spoils of the land of Egypt.\n21 And after Antiochus had ravaged Egypt in the hundred and forty-third year, he returned and went up against Israel.\n22 And he went up to Jerusalem with a great multitude.\n23 And he proudly entered into the sanctuary, and took away the golden altar, and the candlestick of light, and all the vessels thereof, and the table of proposition, and the pouring vessels, and the vials, and the little mortars of gold, and the veil, and the crowns, and the golden ornament that was before the temple: and he broke them all in pieces.\n24 And he took the silver and gold, and the precious vessels: and he took the hidden treasures which he found: and when he had taken all away he departed into his own country.\n25 And he made a great slaughter of men, and spoke very proudly.\n26 And there was great mourning in Israel, and in every place where they were.\n27 And the princes, and the ancients mourned, and the virgins and the young men were made feeble, and the beauty of the women was changed.\n28 Every bridegroom took up lamentation: and the bride that sat in the marriage bed, mourned:\n29 And the land was moved for the inhabitants thereof, and all the house of Jacob was covered with confusion.\n30 And after two full years the king sent the chief collector of his tributes to the cities of Juda, and he came to Jerusalem with a great multitude.\n31 And he spoke to them peaceable words in deceit: and they believed him.\n32 And he fell upon the city suddenly, and struck it with a great slaughter, and destroyed much people in Israel.\n33 And he took the spoils of the city, and burnt it with fire, and threw down the houses thereof, and the walls thereof round about:\n34 And they took the women captive, and the children, and the cattle they possessed.\n35 And they built the city of David with a great and strong wall, and with strong towers, and made it a fortress for them:\n36 And they placed there a sinful nation, wicked men, and they fortified themselves therein: and they stored up armour, and victuals, and gathered together the spoils of Jerusalem;\n37 And laid them up there: and they became a great snare.\n38 And this was a place to lie in wait against the sanctuary, and an evil devil in Israel.\n39 And they shed innocent blood round about the sanctuary, and defiled the holy place.\n40 And the inhabitants of Jerusalem fled away by reason of them, and the city was made the habitation of strangers, and she became a stranger to her own seed, and her children forsook her.\n41 Her sanctuary was desolate like a wilderness, her festival days were turned into mourning, her sabbaths into reproach, her honours were brought to nothing.\n42 Her dishonour was increased according to her glory, and her excellency was turned into mourning.\n43 And king Antiochus wrote to all his kingdom, that all the people should be one: and every one should leave his own law.\n44 And all nations consented according to the word of king Antiochus.\n45 And many of Israel consented to his service, and they sacrificed to idols, and profaned the sabbath.\n46 And the king sent letters by the hands of messengers to Jerusalem, and to all the cities of Juda: that they should follow the law of the nations of the earth,\n47 And should forbid holocausts and sacrifices, and atonements to be made in the temple of God.\n48 And should prohibit the sabbath, and the festival days, to be celebrated.\n49 And he commanded the holy places to be profaned, and the holy people of Israel.\n50 And he commanded altars to be built, and temples, and idols, and swine's flesh to be immolated, and unclean beasts.\n51 And that they should leave their children uncircumcised, and let their souls be defiled with all uncleannesses, and abominations, to the end that they should forget the law, and should change all the justifications of God.\n52 And that whosoever would not do according to the word of king Antiochus should be put to death.\n53 According to all these words he wrote to his whole kingdom, and he appointed rulers over the people that should force them to do these things.\n54 And they commanded the cities of Juda to sacrifice.\n55 Then many of the people were gathered to them that had forsaken the law of the Lord: and they committed evils in the land:\n56 And they drove away the people of Israel into lurking holes, and into the secret places of fugitives.\n57 On the fifteenth day of the month Casleu, in the hundred and forty-fifth year, king Antiochus set up the abominable idol of desolation upon the altar of God, and they built altars throughout all the cities of Juda round about:\n58 And they burnt incense, and sacrificed at the doors of the houses, and in the streets.\n59 And they cut in pieces, and burnt with fire the books of the law of God:\n60 And every one with whom the books of the testament of the Lord were found, and whosoever observed the law of the Lord, they put to death, according to the edict of the king.\n61 Thus by their power did they deal with the people of Israel, that were found in the cities month after month.\n62 And on the five and twentieth day of the month they sacrificed upon the altar of the idol that was over against the altar of God.\n63 Now the women that circumcised their children, were slain according to the commandment of king Antiochus.\n64 And they hanged the children about their necks in all their houses: and those that had circumcised them, they put to death.\n65 And many of the people of Israel determined with themselves, that they would not eat unclean things: and they chose rather to die than to be defiled with unclean meats.\n66 And they would not break the holy law of God, and they were put to death:\n67 And there was very great wrath upon the people.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which chapter and book contains \"And

And Giezi said: My lord O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Eliseus raised to life.\n6 And the king asked the woman: and she told him. And the king appointed her an eunuch, saying: Restore her all that is hers, and all the revenues of the lands, from the day that she left the land, to this present.\n7 Eliseus also came to Damascus, and Benadad king of Syria was sick: and they told him, saying: The man of God is come hither.\n8 And the king said to Hazael: Take with thee presents, and go to meet the man of God, and consult the Lord by him, saying: Can I recover of this my illness?\n9 And Hazael went to meet him, taking with him presents, and all the good things of Damascus, the burdens of forty camels. And when he stood before him, he said: Thy son Benadad the king of Syria hath sent me to thee, saying: Can I recover of this my illness?\n10 And Eliseus said to him: Go tell him: Thou shalt recover: bat the Lord hath shewn me that he shall surely die.\n11 And he stood with him, and was troubled so far as to blush: and the man of God wept.\n12 And Hazael said to him: Why doth my lord weep?

him offer therewith a sacrifice also, that is, the libations thereof.\n30 He shall hold in his hands the fat of the victim, and the breast: and when he hath offered and consecrated both to the Lord, he shall deliver them to the priest,\n31 Who shall burn the fat upon the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.\n32 The right shoulder also of the victims of peace offerings shall fall to the priest for firstfruits.\n33 He among the sons of Aaron, that offereth the blood, and the fat, he shall have the right shoulder also for his portion.\n34 For the breast that is elevated and the shoulder that is separated I have taken of the children of Israel, from off their victims of peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest, and to his sons, by a law for ever, from all the people of Israel.\n35 This is the anointing of Aaron and his sons, in the ceremonies of the Lord, in the day when Moses offered them, that they might do the office of priesthood,\n36 And the things that the Lord commanded to be given them by the children of Israel, by a perpetual observance in their generations.\n37 This is the law of holocaust, and of the sacrifice for sin, and for trespass, and for consecration, and the victims of peace offerings:\n38 Which the Lord appointed to Moses in mount Sinai, when he commanded the children of Israel, that they should offer their oblations to the

And whereas he saith,\n27 All things are put under him; undoubtedly, he is excepted, who put all things under him.\n28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then the Son also himself shall be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.\n29 Otherwise what shall they do that are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not again at all? why are they then baptized for them?\n30 Why also are we in danger every hour?\n31 I die daily, I protest by your glory, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.\n32 If (according to man) I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what doth it profit me, if the dead rise not again? Let us eat and drink, for to morrow we shall die.\n33 Be not seduced: Evil communications corrupt good manners.\n34 Awake, ye just, and sin not. For some have not the knowledge of God, I speak it to your shame.\n35 But some man will say: How do the dead rise again? or with what manner of body shall they come?\n36 Senseless man, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die first.\n37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be; but bare grain, as of wheat, or of some of the rest.\n38 But God giveth it a body as he will: and to every seed its proper body.\n39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but one is the flesh of men, another of beasts, another of birds, another of fishes.\n40 And there are bodies celestial, and bodies terrestrial: but, one is the glory of the celestial, and another of the terrestrial.\n41 One is the glory of the sun, another the glory of the moon, and another the glory of the stars. For star differeth from star in glory.\n42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it shall rise in incorruption.\n43 It is sown in dishonour, it shall rise in glory. It is sown in weakness, it shall rise in power.\n44 It is sown a natural body, it shall rise a spiritual body. If there be a natural body, there is also a spiritual body, as it is written:\n45 The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit.\n46 Yet that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; afterwards that which is spiritual.\n47 The first man was of the earth, earthly: the second man, from heaven, heavenly.\n48 Such as is the earthly, such also are the earthly: and such as is the heavenly, such also are they that are heavenly.\n49 Therefore as we have borne the image of the earthly, let us bear also the image of the heavenly.\n50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot possess the kingdom of God: neither shall corruption possess incorruption.\n51 Behold, I tell you a mystery. We shall all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be changed.\n52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall rise again incorruptible: and we shall be changed.\n53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption; and this mortal must put on immortality.\n54 And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.\n55 O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?\n56 Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law.\n57 But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.\n58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast and unmoveable; always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Scripture from Colossians 4:13?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the New Testament at Colossians 4:13 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"For I bear him testimony that he hath much labour for you, and for them that are at Laodicea, and them at Hierapolis.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the bible does it say \"And Moses returned to the Lord, and said: Lord, why hast thou afflicted this people? wherefore hast thou sent me?\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The quote \"And Moses returned to the Lord, and said: Lord, why hast thou afflicted this people? wherefore hast thou sent me?\" is from Exodus 5:22 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"Therefore she called that well, The well of him that liveth and seeth me.

Now the camp of Madian was in the valley on the north side of the high hill.\n2 And the Lord said to Gedeon: The people that are with thee are many, and Madian shall not be delivered into their hands: lest Israel should glory against me, and say: I was delivered by my own strength.\n3 Speak to the people, and proclaim in the hearing of all, I Whosoever is fearful and timorous, let him return. So two and twenty thousand men went away from mount Galaad and returned home, and only ten thousand remained.\n4 And the Lord said to Gedeon: The people are still too many, bring them to the waters, and there I will try them: and of whom I shall say to thee, This shall go with thee, let him go: whom I shall forbid to go, let him return.\n5 And when the people were come down to the waters, the Lord said to Gedeon: They that shall lap the water with their tongues, as dogs are wont to lap, thou shalt set apart by themselves: but they that shall drink bowing down their knees, shall be on the other side.\n6 And the number of them that had lapped water, casting it with the hand to their mouth, was three hundred men: and all the rest of the multitude had drunk kneeling.\n7 And the Lord said to Gedeon: By the three hundred men, that lapped water, I will save you, and deliver Madian into thy hand: but let all the rest of the people return to their place.\n8 So taking victuals and trumpets according to their number, he ordered all the rest of the multitude to depart to their tents: and he with the three hundred gave himself to the battle. Now the camp of Madian was beneath him in the valley.\n9 The same night the Lord said to him: Arise, and go down into the camp: because I have delivered them into thy hand.\n10 But if thou be afraid to go alone, let Phara thy servant go down with thee.\n11 And when thou shalt hear what they are saying, then shall thy hands be strengthened, and thou shalt go down more secure to the enemies' camp. And he went down with Phara his servant into part of the camp, where was the watch of men in arms.\n12 But Madian and Amalec, and all the eastern people lay scattered in the valley, as a multitude of locusts: their camels also were innumerable as the sand that lieth on the sea shore.\n13 And when Gedeon was come, one told his neighbour a dream: and in this manner related what he had seen: I dreamt a dream, and it seemed to me as if a hearth cake of barley bread rolled and came down into the camp of Madian: and when it was come to a tent it struck it, and beat it down flat to the ground.\n14 He to whom he spoke, answered: This is nothing else but the sword of Gedeon the son of Joas a man of Israel. For the Lord hath delivered Madian, and all their camp into his hand.\n15 And when Gedeon had heard the dream, and the interpretation thereof, he adored: and returned to the camp of Israel, and said: Arise, for the Lord hath delivered the camp of Madian into our hands.\n16 And he divided the three hundred men into three parts, and gave them trumpets in their hands, and empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.\n17 And he said to them: What you shall see me do, do you the same: I will go into one part of the camp, and do you as I shall do.\n18 When the trumpet shall sound in my hand, do you also blow the trumpets on every side of the camp.\n19 And Gedeon, and the three hundred men that were with him, went into part of the camp, at the beginning of the midnight watch, and the watchmen being alarmed, they began to sound their trumpets, and to clap the pitchers one against another.\n20 And when they sounded their trumpets in three places round about the camp, and had broken their pitchers, they held their lamps in their left hands, and with their right hands the trumpets which they blew, and they cried out: The sword of the Lord and of Gedeon;\n21 Standing every man in his place round about the enemies' camp. So all the camp was troubled, and crying out and howling they fled away.\n22 And the three hundred men nevertheless persisted sounding the trumpets. And the Lord sent the sword into all the camp, and they killed one another,\n23 Fleeing as far as Bethsetta, and the border of Abelmahula in Tebbath. But the men of Israel shouting from Nephtali and Aser, and from all Manasses pursued after Madian.\n24 And Gedeon sent messengers into all mount Ephraim, saying: Come down to meet Madian, and take the waters before them to Bethbera and the Jordan. And all Ephraim shouted, and took the waters before them and the Jordan as far as Bethbera.\n25 And having taken two men of Madian, Oreb and Zeb: Oreb they slew in the rock of Oreb, and Zeb in the winepress of Zeb.

And I gave to Esau mount Seir for his possession: but Jacob and his children went down into Egypt.\n5 And I sent Moses and Aaron, and I struck Egypt with many signs and wonders.\n6 And I brought you and your fathers out of Egypt, and you came to the sea: and the Egyptians pursued your fathers with chariots and horsemen, as far as the Red Sea.\n7 And the children of Israel cried to the Lord: and he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brought the sea upon them, and covered them. Your eyes saw all that I did in Egypt, and you dwelt in the wilderness a long time:\n8 And I brought you into the land of the Amorrhite, who dwelt beyond the Jordan. And when they fought against you, I delivered them into your hands, and you possessed their land, and slew them.\n9 And Balac son of Sephor king of Moab arose and fought against Israel. And he sent and called for Balaam son of Beor, to curse you:\n10 And I would not hear him, but on the contrary I blessed you by him, and I delivered you out of his hand.\n11 And you passed over the Jordan, and you came to Jericho. And the men of that city fought against you, the Amorrhite, and the Pherezite, and the Chanaanite, and the Hethite, and the Gergesite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite: and I delivered them into your hands.\n12 And I sent before you hornets: and I drove them out from their places, the two kings of the Amorrhites, not with thy sword nor with thy bow.\n13 And I gave you a land, in which you had not laboured, and cities to dwell in which you built not, vineyards and oliveyards, which you planted not.\n14 Now therefore fear the Lord, and serve him with a perfect and most sincere heart: and put away the gods which your fathers served in Mesopotamia and in Egypt, and serve the Lord.\n15 But if it seem evil to you to serve the Lord, you have your choice: choose this day that which pleaseth you, whom you would rather serve, whether the gods which your fathers served in Mesopotamia, or the gods of the Amorrhites, in whose land you dwell: but as for me and my house we will serve the Lord.\n16 And the people answered, and said: God forbid we should leave the Lord, and serve strange gods.\n17 The Lord our God he brought us and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage: and did very great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way by which we journeyed, and among all the people through whom we passed.\n18 And he hath cast out all the nations, the Amorrhite the inhabitant of the land into which we are come.

And they answered: We are witnesses.\n23 Now therefore, said he, put away strange gods from among you, and incline your hearts to the Lord the God of Israel.\n24 And the people said to Josue: We will serve the Lord our God, and we will be obedient to his commandments.\n25 Josue therefore on that day made a covenant, and set before the people commandments and judgments in Sichem.\n26 And he wrote all these things in the volume of the law of the Lord: and he took a great stone, and set it under the oak that was in the sanctuary of the Lord.\n27 And he said to all the people: Behold this stone shall be a testimony unto you, that it hath heard all the words of the Lord, which he hath spoken to you: lest perhaps hereafter you will deny it, and lie to the Lord your God.\n28 And he sent the people away every one to their own possession.\n29 And after these things Josue the son of Null the servant of the Lord died, being a hundred and ten years old:\n30 And they buried him in the border of his possession in Thamnathsare, which is situate in mount Ephraim, on the north side of mount Gaas.\n31 And Israel served the Lord all the days of Josue, and of the ancients that lived a long time after Josue, and that had known all the works of the Lord which he had done in Israel.\n32 And the bones of Joseph which the children of Israel had taken out of Egypt, they buried in Sichem, in that part of the field which Jacob had bought of the sons of Hemor the father of Sichem, for a hundred young ewes, and it was in the possession of the sons of Joseph.\n33 Eleazar also the son of Aaron died: and they buried him in Gabaath that belongeth to Phinees his son, which was given him in mount Ephraim.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Show me Mark 4:12", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Mark 4:12 in the New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"That seeing they may see, and not perceive;

And his mother's name wee Naama an Ammonitess.\n22 And Juda did evil in the sight of the Lord, and provoked him above all that their fathers had done, in their sins which they committed.\n23 For they also built them altars, and statues, and groves upon every high hill and under every green tree:\n24 There were also the effeminate in the land, and they did according to all the abominations of the people whom the Lord had destroyed before the face of the children of Israel.\n25 And in the fifth year of the reign of Roboam, Sesac king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem.\n26 And he took away the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the king's treasures, and carried all off: as also the shields of gold which Solomon had made.\n27 And Roboam made shields of brass instead of them, and delivered them into the. hand of the captains of the shieldbearers, and of them that kept watch before the gate of the king's house.\n28 And when the king went into the house of the Lord, they whose office it was to go before him, carried them: and afterwards they brought them back to the armoury of the shieldbearers.\n29 Now the rest of the sets of Roboam, and all that he did, behold they are written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda.\n30 And there was war between Roboam and Jeroboam always.\n31 And Roboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David: and his mother's name was Naama an Ammonitess: and Abiam his son reigned in his stead.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Acts 22:23", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The New Testament\nActs 22:23 (Douay Rheims)\n\"And as they cried out and threw off their garments, and cast dust into the air,\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Tell me what Deuteronomy 15:19 says", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The Old Testament\nDeuteronomy 15:19 (Douay Rheims)\n\"Of the firstlings, that come of thy herds and thy sheep, thou shalt sanctify to the Lord thy God whatsoever is of the male sex.

And no one durst withstand them, for the fear of their power had gone through every people.\n3 And the judges of the provinces, and the governors, and lieutenants, and every one in dignity, that presided over every place and work, extolled the Jews for fear of Mardochai:\n4 For they knew him to be prince of the palace, and to have great power: and the fame of his name increased daily, and was spread abroad through all men's mouths.\n5 So the Jews made a great slaughter of their enemies, and killed them, repaying according to what they had prepared to do to them:\n6 Insomuch that even in Susan they killed five hundred men, besides the ten sons of Aman the Agagite, the enemy of the Jews: whose names are these:\n7 Pharsandatha, and Delphon, and Esphatha,\n8 And Phoratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,\n9 And Phermesta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Jezatha.\n10 And when they had slain them, they would not touch the spoils of their goods.\n11 And presently the number of them that were killed in Susan was brought to the king.\n12 And he said to the queen: The Jews have killed five hundred men in the city of Susan, besides the ten sons of Aman: how many dost thou think they have slain in all the provinces? What askest thou more, and what wilt thou have me to command to be done?\n13 And she answered: If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews, to do to morrow in Susan as they have done to day, and that the ten sons of Aman may be hanged upon gibbets.\n14 And the king commanded that it should be so done. And forthwith the edict was hung up in Susan, and the ten sons of Aman were hanged.\n15 And on the fourteenth day of the month Adar the Jews gathered themselves together, and they killed in Susan three hundred men: but they took not their substance.\n16 Moreover through all the provinces which were subject to the king's dominion the Jews stood for their lives, and slew their enemies and persecutors: insomuch that the number of them that were Billed amounted to seventy-five thousand, and no man took any of their goods.\n17 Now the thirteenth day of the month Adar was the first day with them all of the slaughter, and on the fourteenth day they left off. Which they ordained to be kept holy day, so that all times hereafter they should celebrate it with feasting, joy, and banquets.\n18 But they that were killing in the city of Susan, were employed in the slaughter on the thirteenth and fourteenth day of the same month: and on the fifteenth day they rested. And therefore they appointed that day to be a holy day of feasting and gladness.\n19 But those Jews that dwelt in towns not walled and in villages, appointed the fourteenth day of the month Adar for banquets and gladness, so as to rejoice on that day, and send one another portions of their banquets and meats.\n20 And Mardochai wrote all these things, and sent them comprised in letters to the Jews that abode in all the king's provinces, both those that lay near and those afar off,\n21 That they should receive the fourteenth and fifteenth day of the month Adar for holy days, and always at the return of the year should celebrate them with solemn honour:\n22 Because on those days the Jews revenged themselves of their enemies, and their mourning and sorrow were turned into mirth and joy, and that these should be days of feasting and gladness, in which they should send one to another portions of meats; and should give gifts to the poor.\n23 And the Jews undertook to observe with solemnity all they had begun to do at that time, which Mardochai by letters had commanded to be done.\n24 For Aman, the son of Amadathi of the race of Agag, the enemy and adversary of the Jews, had devised evil against them, to kill them and destroy them: and had cast Phur, that is, the lot.\n25 And afterwards Esther went in to the king, beseeching him that his endeavours might be made void by the king's letters: and the evil that he had intended against the Jews, might return upon his own head.

We will not come.\n15 Moses therefore being very angry, said to the Lord: Respect not their sacrifices: thou knowest that I have not taken of them so much as a young ass at any time, nor have injured any of them.\n16 And he said to Core: Do thou and thy congregation stand apart before the Lord to morrow, and Aaron apart.\n17 Take every one of you censers, and put incense upon them, offering to the Lord two hundred and fifty censers: let Aaron also hold his censer.\n18 When they had done this, Moses and Aaron standing,\n19 And had drawn up all the multitude against them to the door of the tabernacle, the glory of the Lord appeared to them all.\n20 And the Lord speaking to Moses and Aaron, said:\n21 Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may presently destroy them.\n22 They fell flat on their face, and said: O most mighty, the God of the spirits of all flesh, for one man's sin shall thy wrath rage against all?\n23 And the Lord said to Moses:\n24 Command the whole people to separate themselves from the tents of Core and Dathan and Abiron.\n25 And Moses arose, and went to Dathan and Abiron: and the ancients of Israel following him,\n26 He said to the multitude: Depart from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest you be involved in their sins.\n27 And when they were departed from their tents round about, Dathan and Abiron coming out stood in the entry of their pavilions with their wives and children, and all the people.\n28 And Moses said: By this you shall know that the Lord hath sent me to do all things that you see, and that I have not forged them of my own head:\n29 If these men die the common death of men, and if they be visited with a plague, wherewith others also are wont to be visited, the Lord did not send me.\n30 But if the Lord do a new thing, and the earth opening her mouth swallow them down, and all things that belong to them, and they go down alive into hell, you shall know that they have blasphemed the Lord.\n31 And immediately as he had made an end of speaking, the earth broke asunder under their feet:\n32 And opening her mouth, devoured them with their tents and all their substance.\n33 And they went down alive into hell the ground closing upon them, and they perished from among the people.\n34 But all Israel, that was standing round about, fled at the cry of them that were perishing: saying: Lest perhaps the earth swallow us up also.\n35 And a fire coming out from the Lord, destroyed the two hundred and fifty men that offered the incense.\n36 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n37 Command Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest to take up the censers that lie in the burning, and to scatter the fire of one side and the other: because they are sanctified\n38 In the deaths of the sinners: and let him beat them into plates, and fasten them to the altar, because incense hath been offered in them to the Lord, and they are sanctified, that the children of Israel may see them for a sign and a memorial.\n39 Then Eleazar the priest took the brazen censers, wherein they had offered, whom the burning fire had devoured, and beat them into plates, fastening them to the altar:\n40 That the children of Israel might have for the time to come wherewith they should be admonished, that no stranger or any one that is not of seed of Aaron should come near to offer incense to the Lord, lest he should suffer as Core suffered, and all his congregation, according as the Lord spoke to Moses.\n41 The following day all the multitude of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron, saying: You have killed the people of the Lord.\n42 And when there arose a sedition, and the tumult increased,\n43 Moses and Aaron fled to the tabernacle of the covenant.

Are not you of much more value than they?\n27 And which of you by taking thought, can add to his stature by one cubit?\n28 And for raiment why are you solicitous? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they labour not, neither do they spin.\n29 But I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed as one of these.\n30 And if the grass of the field, which is to day, and to morrow is cast into the oven, God doth so clothe: how much more you, O ye of little faith?\n31 Be not solicitous therefore, saying, What shall we eat: or what shall we drink, or wherewith shall we be clothed?\n32 For after all these things do the heathens seek. For your Father knoweth that you have need of all these things.\n33 Seek ye therefore first the kingdom of God, and his justice, and all these things shall be added unto you.\n34 Be not therefore solicitous for to morrow; for the morrow will be solicitous for itself.

6\n1 Now king Antiochus was going through the higher countries, and he heard that the city of Elymais in Persia was greatly renowned, and abounding in silver and gold.\n2 And that there was in it a temple, exceeding rich: and coverings of gold, and breastplates, and shields which king Alexander, son of Philip the Macedonian that reigned first in Greece, had left there.\n3 Lo, he came, and sought to take the city and to pillage it: But he was not able, because the design was known to them that were in the city.\n4 And they rose up against him in battle, and he fled away from thence, and departed with great sadness, and returned towards Babylonia.\n5 And whilst he was in Persia, there came one that told him, how the armies that were in the land of Juda were put to flight:\n6 And that Lysias went with a very great power, and was put to flight before the face of the Jews, and that they were grown strong by the armour, and power, and store of spoils, which they had gotten out of the camps which they had destroyed:\n7 And that they had thrown down the abomination which he had set up upon the altar in Jerusalem, and that they had compassed about the sanctuary with high walls as before, and Bethsura also his city.\n8 And it came to pass when the king heard these words, that he was struck with fear, and exceedingly moved: and he laid himself down upon his bed, and fell sick for grief, because it had not fallen out to him as he imagined.\n9 And he remained there many days: for great grief came more and more and more upon him, and he made account that he should die.\n10 And he called for all his friends, and said to them: Sleep is gone from my eyes, and I am fallen away, and my heart is cast down for anxiety.\n11 And I said in my heart: Into how much tribulation am I come, and into what floods of sorrow, wherein now I am: I that was pleasant and beloved in my power!\n12 But now I remember the evils that I have done in Jerusalem, from whence also I took away all the spoils of gold, and of silver that were in it, and I sent to destroy the inhabitants of Juda without cause.\n13 I know therefore that for this cause these evils have found me: and behold I perish with great grief in a strange land.\n14 Then he called Philip, one of his friends, and he made him regent over all his kingdom.\n15 And he gave him the crown, and his robe, and his ring, that he should go to Antiochus his son, and should bring him up for the kingdom.\n16 So king Antiochus died there in the year one hundred and forty-nine.\n17 And Lysias understood that the king was dead, and he set up Antiochus his son to reign, whom he brought up young: and he called his name Eupator.\n18 Now they that were in the castle, had shut up the Israelites round about the holy places: and they were continually seeking their hurt, and to strengthen the Gentiles.\n19 And Judas purposed to destroy them: and he called together all the people, to besiege them.\n20 And they came together, and besieged them in the year one hundred and fifty, and they made battering slings and engines.\n21 And some of the besieged got out: and some wicked men of Israel joined themselves unto them.\n22 And they went to the king, and said: How long dost thou delay to execute the judgment, and to revenge our brethren?\n23 We determined to serve thy father and to do according to his orders, and obey his edicts:\n24 And for this they of our nation are alienated from us, and have slain as many of us as they could find, and have spoiled our inheritances.\n25 Neither have they put forth their hand against us only, but also against all our borders.\n26 And behold they have approached this day to the castle of Jerusalem to take it, and they have fortified the stronghold of Bethsura:\n27 And unless thou speedily prevent them, they will do greater things than these, and thou shalt not be able to subdue them.\n28 Now when the king heard this, he was angry: and he called together all his friends, and the captains of his army, and them that were over the horsemen.\n29 There came also to him from other realms, and from the islands of the sea hired troops.\n30 And the number of his army was an hundred thousand footmen, and twenty thousand horsemen, and thirty-two elephants, trained to battle.\n31 And they went through Idumea, and approached to Bethsura, and fought many days, and they made engines: but they sallied forth and burnt them with fire, and fought manfully.\n32 And Judas departed from the castle, and removed the camp to Bethzacharam, over against the king's camp.\n33 And the king rose before it was light, and made his troops march on fiercely towards the way of Bethzacharam: and the armies made themselves ready for the battle, and they sounded the trumpets:\n34 And they shewed the elephants the blood of grapes, and mulberries to provoke them to fight.\n35 And they distributed the beasts by the legions: and there stood by every elephant a thousand men in coats of mail, and with helmets of brass on their heads: and five hundred horsemen set in order were chosen for every beast.\n36 These before the time wheresoever the beast was, the were there: and withersoever it went, they went, and they departed not from it.\n37 And upon the beast, there were strong wooden towers, which covered every one of them: and engines upon them: and upon every one thirty-two valiant men, who fought from above; and an Indian to rule the beast.\n38 And the rest of the horsemen he placed on this side and on that side at the two wings, with trumpets to stir up the army, and to hasten them forward that stood thick together in the legions thereof.\n39 Now when the sun shone upon the shields of gold, and of brass, the mountains glittered therewith, and they shone like lamps of fire.\n40 And part of the king's army was distinguished by the high mountains, and the other part by the low places: and they marched on warily and orderly.\n41 And all the inhabitants of the land were moved at the noise of their multitude, and the marching of the company, and the rattling of the armour, for the army was exceeding great and strong.\n42 And Judas and his army drew near for battle: and there fell of the king's army six hundred men.\n43 And Eleazar the son of Saura saw one of the beasts harnessed with the king's harness: and it was higher than the other beasts: and it seemed to him that the king was on it:\n44 And he exposed himself to deliver his people and to get himself an everlasting name.\n45 And he ran up to it boldly in the midst of the legion, killing on the right hand, and on the left, and they fell by him on this side and that side.\n46 And he went between the feet of the elephant, and put himself under it: and slew it, and it fell to the ground upon him, and he died there.\n47 Then they seeing the strength of the king and the fierceness of his army, turned away from them.\n48 But the king's army went up against them to Jerusalem: and the king's army pitched their tents against Judea and mount Sion.\n49 And he made peace with them that were in Bethsura: and they came forth out of the city, because they had no victuals, being shut up there, for it was the year of rest to the land.\n50 And the king took Bethsura: and he placed there a garrison to keep it.\n51 And he turned his army against the sanctuary for many days: and he set up there battering slings, and engines and instruments to cast fire, and engines to cast stones and javelins, and pieces to shoot arrows, and slings.\n52 And they also made engines against their engines, and they fought for many days.\n53 But there were no victuals in the city, because it was the seventh year: and such as had stayed in Judea of them that came from among the nations, had eaten the residue of all that which had been stored up.\n54 And there remained in the holy places but a few, for the famine had prevailed over them: and they were dispersed every man to his own place.\n55 Now Lysias heard that Philip, whom king Antiochus while he lived had appointed to bring up his son Antiochus, and to reign, to be king,\n56 Was returned from Persia, and Media, with the army that went with him, and that he sought to take upon him the affairs of the kingdom:\n57 Wherefore he made haste to go, and say to the king and to the captains of the army: We decay daily, and our provision of victuals is small, and the place that we lay siege to is strong, and it lieth upon us to take order for the affairs of the kingdom.\n58 Now therefore let us come to an agreement with these men, and make peace with them and with all their nation.\n59 And let us covenant with them, that they may live according to their own laws as before.

And that day indeed he held his peace.\n5 But having gotten a convenient time to further his madness, being called to counsel by Demetrius, and asked what the Jews relied upon, and what were their counsels,\n6 He answered thereunto: They among the Jews that are called Assideans, of whom Judas Machabeus is captain, nourish wars, and raise seditions, and will not suffer the realm to be in peace.\n7 For I also being deprived of my ancestors' glory (I mean of the high priesthood) am now come hither:\n8 Principally indeed out of fidelity to the king's interests, but in the next place also to provide for the good of my countrymen: for all our nation suffereth much from the evil proceedings of those men.\n9 Wherefore, O king, seeing thou knowest all these things, take care, I beseech thee, both of the country, and of our nation, according to thy humanity which is known to all men,\n10 For as long as Judas liveth, it is not possible that the state should be quiet.\n11 Now when this man had spoken to this effect, the rest also of the king's friends, who were enemies of Judas, incensed Demetrius against him.\n12 And forthwith he sent Nicanor, the commander over the elephants, governor into Judea:\n13 Giving him in charge, to take Judas himself: and disperse all them that were with him, and to make Alcimus the high priest of the great temple.\n14 Then the Gentiles who had fled out of Judea from Judas, came to Nicanor by flocks, thinking the miseries and calamities of the Jews to be the welfare of their affairs.\n15 Now when the Jews heard of Nicanor's coming, and that the nations were assembled against them, they cast earth upon their heads, and made supplication to him, who chose his people to keep them for ever, and who protected his portion by evident signs.\n16 Then at the commandment of their captain, they forthwith removed from the place where they were, and went to the town of Dessau, to meet them.\n17 Now Simon the brother of Judas had joined battle with Nicanor, but was frightened with the sudden coming of the adversaries.\n18 Nevertheless Nicanor hearing of the valour of Judas' companions, and the greatness of courage with which they fought for their country, was afraid to try the matter by the sword.\n19 Wherefore he sent Posidonius, and Theodotius, and Matthias before to present and receive the right hands.\n20 And when there had been a consultation thereupon, and the captain had acquainted the multitude with it, they were all of one mind to consent to covenants.\n21 So they appointed a day upon which they might commune together by themselves: and seats were brought out, and set for each one.\n22 But Judas ordered men to be ready in convenient places, lest some mischief might be suddenly practiced by the enemies: so they made an agreeable conference.\n23 And Nicanor abode in Jerusalem, and did no wrong, but sent away the flocks of the multitudes that had been gathered together.\n24 And Judas was always dear to him from the heart, and he was well affected to the man.\n25 And he desired him to marry a wife, and to have children. So he married: he lived quietly, and they lived in common.\n26 But Alcimus seeing the love they had one to another, and the covenants, came to Demetrius, and told him that Nicanor assented to the foreign interest, for that he meant to make Judas, who was a traitor to the kingdom, his successor.\n27 Then the king being in a rage and provoked with this man's wicked accusations, wrote to Nicanor, signifying, that he was greatly displeased with the covenant of friendship: and that he commanded him nevertheless to send Machabeus prisoner in all haste to Antioch.\n28 When this was known, Nicanor was in a consternation, and took it grievously that he should make void the articles that were agreed upon, having received no injury from the man.\n29 But because he could not oppose the king, he watched an opportunity to comply with the orders.\n30 But when Machabeus perceived that Nicanor was more stern to him, and that when they met together as usual he behaved himself in a rough manner: and was sensible that this rough behaviour came not of good, he gathered together a few of his men, and hid himself from Nicanor.\n31 But he finding himself notably prevented by the man, came to the great and holy temple: and commanded the priests that were offering the accustomed sacrifices, to deliver him the man.\n32 And when they swore unto him, that they knew not where the man was whom he sought, he stretched out his hand to the temple,\n33 And swore, saying: Unless you deliver Judas prisoner to me, I will lay this temple of God even with the ground, and will beat down the altar, and I will dedicate this temple to Bacchus.\n34 And when he had spoken thus he departed.

And he rebelled against the king of the Assyrians, and served him not.\n8 He smote the Philistines as far as Gaza, and all their borders, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.\n9 In the fourth year of king Ezechias, which was the seventh year of Osee the son of Ela king of Israel, Salmanasar king of the Assyrians came up to Samaria, and besieged it,\n10 And took it. For after three years, in the sixth year of Ezechias, that is, in the ninth year of Osee king of Israel, Samaria was taken:\n11 And the king of the Assyrians carried away Israel into Assyria, and placed them in Hale, and in Habor by the rivers of Gozan in the cities of the Medes:\n12 Because they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord their God, but transgressed his covenant: all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded, they would not hear nor do.\n13 In the fourteenth year of king Ezechias, Sennacherib king of the Assyrians came up against the fenced cities of Juda: and took them.\n14 Then Ezechias king of Juda sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians to Lachis, saying: I have offended, depart from me: and all that thou shalt put upon me, I will bear. And the king of the Assyrians put a tax upon Ezechias king of Juda, of three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold.\n15 And Ezechias gave all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the king's treasures.\n16 At that time Ezechias broke the doors of the temple of the Lord, and the plates of gold which he had fastened on them, and gave them to the king of the Assyrians.\n17 And the king of the Assyrians sent Tharthan and Rabsaris, and Rabsaces from Lachis to king Ezechias with a strong army to Jerusalem: and they went up and came to Jerusalem, and they stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the way of the fuller's field.\n18 And they called for the king: and there went out to them Eliacim the son of Helcias who was over the house, and Sobna the scribe, and Joahe the son of Asaph the recorder.\n19 And Rabsaces said to them: Speak to Ezechias: Thus saith the great king, the king of the Assyrians: What is this confidence, wherein thou trustest?\n20 Perhaps thou hast taken counsel, to prepare thyself for battle. On whom dost thou trust, that thou darest to rebel?\n21 Dost thou trust in Egypt a staff of a broken reed, upon which if a man lean, it will break and go into his hand, and pierce it? so is Pharao king of Egypt, to all that trust in him.\n22 But if you say to me: We trust in the Lord our God: is it not he, whose high places and altars Ezechias hath taken away: and hath commanded Juda and Jerusalem: You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?\n23 Now therefore come over to my master the king of the Assyrians, and I will give you two thousand horses, and see whether you be able to have riders for them.\n24 And how can you stand against one lord of the least of my master's servants? Dost thou trust in Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?\n25 Is it without the will of the Lord that I am come up to this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me: Go up to this land and destroy it.\n26 Then Eliacim the son of Helcias, and Sobna, and Joahe said to Rabsaces: We pray thee speak to us thy servants in Syriac: for we understand that tongue: and speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the hearing of the people that are upon the wall.\n27 And Rabsaces answered them, saying: Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee, to speak these words, and not rather to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their urine with you?\n28 Then Rabsaces stood, and cried out with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said: Hear the words of the great king, the king of the Assyrians.\n29 Thus saith the king: Let not Ezechias deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of my hand.\n30 Neither let him make you trust in the Lord, saying: The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of the Assyrians.\n31 Do not hearken to Ezechias. For thus saith the king of the Assyrians: Do with me that which is for your advantage, and come out to me: and every man of you shall eat of his own vineyard, and of his own fig tree: and you shall drink water of your own cisterns,\n32 Till I come, and take you away to a land, like to your own land, a fruitful land, and plentiful in wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olives, and oil and honey, and you shall live, and not die. Hearken not to Ezechias, who deceiveth you, saying: The Lord will deliver us.\n33 Have any of the gods of the nations delivered their land from the hand of the king of Assyria?\n34 Where is the god of Emath, and of Arphad? where is the god of Sepharvaim, of Ana, and of Ava? have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?\n35 Who are they among all the gods of the nations, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the Lord may deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?\n36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for they had received commandment from the king that they should not answer him.\n37 And Eliacim the son of Helcias, who was over the house, and Sobna the scribe, and Joahe the son of Asaph the recorder, came to Ezechias, with their garments rent, and told

and the vision of his head was upon his bed: and writing the dream, he comprehended it in few words: and relating the sum of it in short, he said:\n2 I saw in my vision by night, and behold the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea.\n3 And four great beasts, different one from another, came up out of the sea.\n4 The first was like a lioness, and had the wings of an eagle: I beheld till her wings were plucked off, and she was lifted up from the earth, and stood upon her feet as a man, and the heart of a man was given to her.\n5 And behold another beast like a bear stood up on one side: and there were three rows in the mouth thereof, and in the teeth thereof, and thus they said to it: Arise, devour much flesh.\n6 After this I beheld, and lo, another like a leopard, and it had upon it four wings as of a fowl, and the beast had four heads, and power was given to it.\n7 After this I beheld in the vision of the night, and lo, a fourth beast, terrible and wonderful, and exceeding strong, it had great iron teeth, eating and breaking in pieces, and treading down the rest with its feet: and it was unlike to the other beasts which I had seen before it, and had ten horns.\n8 I considered the horns, and behold another little horn sprung out of the midst of them: and three of the first horns were plucked up at the presence thereof: and behold eyes like the eyes of a man were in this horn, and a mouth speaking great things.\n9 I beheld till thrones were placed, and the Ancient of days sat: his garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like clean wool: his throne like flames of fire: the wheels of it like a burning fire.\n10 A swift stream of fire issued forth from before him: thousands of thousands ministered to him, and ten thousand times a hundred thousand stood before him: the judgment sat, and the books were opened.\n11 I beheld because of the voice of the great words which that horn spoke: and I saw that the beast was slain, and the body thereof was destroyed, and given to the fire to be burnt:\n12 And that the power of the other beasts was taken away: and that times of life were appointed them for a time, and a time.\n13 I beheld therefore in the vision of the night, and lo, one like the son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and he came even to the Ancient of days: and they presented him before him.\n14 And he gave him power, and glory, and a kingdom: and all peoples, tribes and tongues shall serve him: his power is an everlasting power that shall not be taken away: and his kingdom that shall not be destroyed.\n15 My spirit trembled, I Daniel was affrighted at these things, and the visions of my head troubled me.\n16 I went near to one of them that stood by, and asked the truth of him concerning all these things, and he told me the interpretation of the words, and instructed me:\n17 These four great beasts are four kingdoms, which shall arise out of the earth.\n18 But the saints of the most high God shall take the kingdom: and they shall possess the kingdom for ever and ever.\n19 After this I would diligently learn concerning the fourth beast, which was very different from all, and exceeding terrible: his teeth and claws were of iron: he devoured and broke in pieces, and the rest he stamped upon with his feet:\n20 And concerning the ten horns that he had on his head: and concerning the other that came up, before which three horns fell: and of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and was greater than the rest.\n21 I beheld, and lo, that horn made war against the saints, and prevailed over them,\n22 Till the Ancient of days came and gave judgment to the saints of the most High, and the time came, and the saints obtained the kingdom.\n23 And thus he said: The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be greater than all the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.\n24 And the ten horns of the same kingdom, shall be ten kings: and another shall rise up after them, and he shall be mightier than the former, and he shall bring down three kings.\n25 And he shall speak words against the High One, and shall crush the saints of the most High: and he shall think himself able to change times and laws, and they shall be delivered into his hand until a time, and times, and half a time.\n26 And judgment shall sit, that his power may be taken away, and be broken in pieces, and perish even to the end.\n27 And that the kingdom, and power, and the greatness of the kingdom, under the whole heaven, may be given to the people of the saints of the most High: whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all kings shall serve him, and shall obey him.\n28 Hitherto

He that knoweth God, heareth us. He that is not of God, heareth us not.

And every one that loveth, is born of God, and knoweth God.\n8 He that loveth not, knoweth not God: for God is charity.\n9 By this hath the charity of God appeared towards us, because God hath sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we may live by him.\n10 In this is charity: not as though we had loved God, but because he hath first loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins.\n11 My dearest, if God hath so loved us; we also ought to love one another.\n12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and his charity is perfected in us.\n13 In this we know that we abide in him, and he in us: because he hath given us of his spirit.\n14 And we have seen, and do testify, that the Father hath sent his Son to be the Saviour of the world.\n15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God.\n16 And we have known, and have believed the charity, which God hath to us.

helped him, and all they that had joined themselves to his father, and they fought with cheerfulness the battle of Israel.\n3 And he got his people great honour, and put on a breastplate as a giant, and girt his warlike armour about him in battles, and protected the camp with his sword.\n4 In his acts he was like a lion, and like a lion's whelp roaring for his prey.\n5 And he pursued the wicked and sought them out, and them that troubled his people he burnt with fire:\n6 And his enemies were driven away for fear of him, and all the workers of iniquity were troubled: and salvation prospered in his hand.\n7 And he grieved many kings, and made Jacob glad with his works, and his memory is blessed for ever.\n8 And he went through the cities of Juda, and destroyed the wicked out of them, and turned away wrath from Israel.\n9 And he was renowned even to the utmost part of the earth, and he gathered them that were perishing.\n10 And Apollonius gathered together the Gentiles, and a numerous and great army from Samaria, to make war against Israel.\n11 And Judas understood it, and went forth to meet him: and he overthrew him, and killed him: and many fell down slain, the rest fled away.\n12 And he took their spoils, and Judas took the sword of Apollonius, and fought with it all his lifetime.\n13 And Seron captain of the army of Syria heard that Judas had assembled a company of the faithful, and a congregation with him,\n14 And he said: I will get me a name, and will be glorified in the kingdom, and will overthrow Judas, and those that are with him, that have despised the edict of the king.\n15 And he made himself ready: and the host of the wicked went up with him, strong succours, to be revenged of the children of Israel.\n16 And they approached even as far as Bethoron: and Judas went forth to meet him, with a small company.\n17 But when they saw the army coming to meet them, they said to Judas: How shall we, being few, be able to fight against so great a multitude and so strong, and we are ready to faint with fasting to day?\n18 And Judas said: It is an easy matter for many to be shut up in the hands of a few: and there is no difference in the sight of the God of heaven to deliver with a great multitude, or with a small company:\n19 For the success of war is not in the multitude of the army, but strength cometh from heaven.\n20 They come against us with an insolent multitude, and with pride, to destroy us, and our wives, and our children, and to take our spoils.\n21 But we will fight for our lives and our laws:\n22 And the Lord himself will overthrow them before our face: but as for you, fear them not.\n23 And as soon as he had made an end of speaking, he rushed suddenly upon them: and Seron and his host were overthrown before him:\n24 And he pursued him by the descent of Bethoron even to the plain, and there fell of them eight hundred men, and the rest fled into the land of the Philistines.\n25 And the fear of Judas and of his brethren, and the dread of them fell upon all the nations round about them.\n26 And his fame came to the king, and all nations told of the battles of Judas.\n27 Now when king Antiochus heard these words, he was angry in his mind: and he sent and gathered the forces of all his kingdom, an exceeding strong army.\n28 And he opened his treasury, and gave out pay to the army for a year: and he commanded them, that they should be ready for all things.\n29 And he perceived that the money of his treasures failed, and that the tributes of the country were small because of the dissension, and the evil that he had brought upon the land, that he might take away the laws of old times:\n30 And he feared that he should not have as formerly enough, for charges and gifts, which he had given before with a liberal hand: for he had abounded more than the kings that had been before him.\n31 And he was greatly perplexed in mind, and purposed to go into Persia, and to take tributes of the countries, and to gather much money.\n32 And he left Lysias, a nobleman of the blood royal, to oversee the affairs of the kingdom, from the river Euphrates even to the river of Egypt:\n33 And to bring up his son Antiochus, till he came again.\n34 And he delivered to him half the army, and the elephants: and he gave him charge concerning all that he would have done, and concerning the inhabitants of Judea, and Jerusalem:\n35 And that he should send an army against them, to destroy and root out the strength of Israel, and the remnant of Jerusalem, and to take away the memory of them from that place:\n36 And that he should settle strangers to dwell in all their coasts, and divide their land by lot.\n37 So the king took the half of the army that remained, and went forth from Antioch the chief city of his kingdom, in the hundred and forty-seventh year: and he passed over the river Euphrates, and went through the higher countries.\n38 Then Lysias chose Ptolemee the son of Dorymenus, and Nicanor, and Gorgias, mighty men of the king's friends.\n39 And he sent with them forty thousand men, and seven thousand horsemen: to go into the land of Juda, and to destroy it according to the king's orders.\n40 So they went forth with all their power, and came, and pitched near Emmaus in the plain country.\n41 And the merchants of the countries heard the fame of them: and they took silver and gold in abundance, and servants: and they came into the camp, to buy the children of Israel for slaves: and there were joined to them the forces of Syria, and of the land of the strangers.\n42 And Judas and his brethren saw that evils were multiplied, and that the armies approached to their borders: and they knew the orders the king had given to destroy the people and utterly abolish them.\n43 And they said every man to his neighbour: Let us raise up the low condition of our people, and let us fight for our people, and our sanctuary.\n44 And the assembly was gathered that they might be ready for battle: and that they might pray, and ask mercy and compassion.\n45 Now Jerusalem was not inhabited, but was like a desert: there was none of her children that went in or out: and the sanctuary was trodden down: and the children of strangers were in the castle, there was the habitation of the Gentiles: and joy was taken away from Jacob, and the pipe and harp ceased there.\n46 And they assembled together, and came to Maspha over against Jerusalem: for in Maspha was a place of prayer heretofore in Israel.\n47 And they fasted that day, and put on haircloth, and put ashes upon their heads: and they rent their garments:\n48 And they laid open the books of the law, in which the Gentiles searched for the likeness of their idols:\n49 And they brought the priestly ornaments, and the firstfruits and tithes, and stirred up the Nazarites that had fulfilled their days:\n50 And they cried with a loud voice toward heaven, saying: What shall we do with these, and whither shall we carry them?\n51 For thy holies are trodden down, and are profaned, and thy priests are in mourning, and are brought low.\n52 And behold the nations are come together against us to destroy us: thou knowest what they intend against us.\n53 How shall we be able to stand before their face, unless thou, O God, help us?\n54 Then they sounded with trumpets, and cried out with a loud voice.\n55 And after this Judas appointed captains over the people, over thousands, and over hundreds, and over fifties, and over tens.\n56 And he said to them that were building houses, or had betrothed wives, or were planting vineyards, or were fearful, that they should return every man to his house, according to the law.\n57 So they removed the camp, and pitched on the south side of Emmaus.\n58 And Judas said: Gird yourselves, and be valiant men, and be ready against the morning, that you may fight with these nations that are assembled against us to destroy us and our sanctuary.\n59 For it is better for us to die in battle, than to see the evils of our nation, and of the holies:\n60 Nevertheless as it shall be the will of God in heaven so be it done.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What

And Abiathar brought the ephod to David.\n8 And David consulted the Lord, saying: Shall I pursue after these robbers, and shall I overtake them, or not? And the Lord said to him: Pursue after them: for thou shalt surely overtake them and recover the prey.\n9 So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and they came to the torrent Besor: and some being weary stayed there.\n10 But David pursued, he and four hundred men: for two hundred stayed, who being weary could not go over the torrent Besor.\n11 And they found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David: and they gave him bread to eat, and water to drink,\n12 As also a piece of a cake of figs, and two bunches of raisins. And when he had eaten them his spirit returned, and he was refreshed: for he had not eaten bread, nor drunk water three days, and three nights.\n13 And David said to him: To whom dost thou belong? or whence dost thou come? and whither art thou going? He said: I am a young man of Egypt, the servant of an Amalecite, and my master left me, because I began to be sick three days ago.\n14 For we made an invasion on the south side of Cerethi, and upon Juda, and upon the south of Caleb, and we burnt Siceleg with fire.\n15 And David said to him: Canst thou bring me to this company? And he said: Swear to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee to this company. And David swore to him.\n16 And when he had brought him, behold they were lying spread upon all the ground, eating and drinking, and as it were keeping a festival day, for all the prey, and the spoils which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Juda.\n17 And David slew them from the evening unto the evening of the next day, and there escaped not a man of them, but four hundred young men, who had gotten upon camels, and fled.\n18 So David recovered all that the Amalecites had taken, and he rescued his two wives.\n19 And there was nothing missing small or great, neither of their sons or their daughters, nor of the spoils, and whatsoever they had taken: David recovered all.\n20 And he took all the flocks and the herds, and made them go before him: and they said: This is the prey of David.\n21 And David came to the two hundred men, who being weary had stayed, and were not able to follow David, and he had ordered them to abide at the torrent Besor: and they came out to meet David, and the people that were with him. And David coming to the people saluted them peaceably.\n22 Then all the wicked and unjust men that had gone with David answering, said: Because they came not with us, we will not give them any thing of the prey which we have recovered: but let every man take his wife and his children, and be contented with them, and go his way.\n23 But David said: You shall not do so, my brethren, with these things, which the Lord hath given us, who hath kept us, and hath delivered the robbers that invaded us into our hands.\n24 And no man shall hearken to you in this matter. But equal shall be the portion of him that went down to battle and of him that abode at the baggage, and they shall divide alike.\n25 And this hath been done from that day forward, and since was made a statute, and an ordinance, and as a law in Israel.\n26 Then David came to Siceleg, and sent presents of the prey to the ancients of Juda his neighbours, saying: Receive a blessing of the prey of the enemies of the Lord.\n27 To them that were in Bethel, and that were in Ramoth to the south, and to them that were in Jether,\n28 And to them that were in Aroer and that were in Sephamoth, and that were in Esthamo,\n29 And that were in Rachal, and that were in the cities of Jerameel, and that were in the cities of Ceni,\n30 And that were in Arama, and that were in the lake Asan, and that were in Athach,\n31 And that were in Hebron, and to the rest that were in those places, in which David had abode with his men.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"So the high priest considering that the king might perhaps suspect that some mischief had been done to Heliodorus by the Jews, offered a sacrifice of health for the recovery of the man.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from 2 Maccabees, chapter 3.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\n2 Maccabees Chapter 3\n1 Therefore when the holy city was inhabited with all peace, and the laws as yet were very well kept, because of the godliness of Onias the high priest, and the hatred his soul had of evil,\n2 It came to pass that even the kings themselves, and the princes esteemed the place worthy of the highest honour, and glorified the temple with very great gifts:\n3 So that Seleucus king of Asia allowed out of his revenues all the charges belonging to the ministry of the sacrifices.\n4 But one Simon of the tribe of Benjamin, who was appointed overseer of the temple, strove in opposition to the high priest, to bring about some unjust thing in the city.\n5 And when he could not overcome Onias he went to Apollonius the son of Tharseas, who at that time was governor of Celesyria and Phenicia:\n6 And told him, that the treasury in Jerusalem was full of immense sums of money, and the common store was infinite, which did not belong to the account of the sacrifices: and that it was possible to bring all into the king's hands.\n7 Now when Apollonius had given the king notice concerning the money that he was told of, he called for Heliodorus, who had the charge over his affairs, and sent him with commission to bring him the foresaid money.\n8 So Heliodorus forthwith began his journey, under a colour of visiting the cities of Celesyria and Phenicia, but indeed to fulfill the king's purpose.\n9 And when he was come to Jerusalem, and had been courteously received in the city by the high priest, he told him what information had been given concerning the money: and declared the cause for which he was come: and asked if these things were so indeed.\n10 Then the high priest told him that these were sums deposited, and provisions for the subsistence of the widows and the fatherless.\n11 And that some part of that which wicked Simon had given intelligence of, belonged to Hircanus son of Tobias, a man of great dignity: and that the whole was four hundred talents of silver, and two hundred of gold:\n12 But that to deceive them who had trusted to the place and temple which is honoured throughout the whole world, for the reverence and holiness of it, was a thing which could not by any means be done.\n13 But he, by reason of the orders he had received from the king, said that by all means the money must be carried to the king.\n14 So on the day he had appointed, Heliodorus entered in to order this matter. But there was no small terror throughout the whole city.\n15 And the priests prostrated themselves before the altar in their priests' vestments, and called upon him from heaven, who made the law concerning things given to be kept, that he would preserve them safe, for them that had deposited them.\n16 Now whosoever saw the countenance of the high priest, was wounded in heart: for his face, and the changing of his colour declared the inward sorrow of his mind.\n17 For the man was so compassed with sadness and horror of the body, that it was manifest to them that beheld him, what sorrow he had in his heart.\n18 Others also came flocking together out of their houses, praying and making public supplication, because the place was like to come into contempt.\n19 And the women, girded with haircloth about their breasts, came together in the streets. And the virgins also that were shut up, came forth, some to Onias, and some to the walls, and others looked out of the windows.\n20 And all holding up their hands towards heaven, made supplication.\n21 For the expectation of the mixed multitude, and of the high priest who was in an agony, would have moved any one to pity.\n22 And these indeed called upon almighty God, to preserve the things that had been committed to them, safe and sure for those that had committed them.\n23 But Heliodorus executed that which he had resolved on, himself being present in the same place with his guard about the treasury.\n24 But the spirit of the almighty God gave a great evidence of his presence, so that all that had presumed to obey him, falling down by the power of God, were struck with fainting and dread.\n25 For there appeared to them a horse with a terrible rider upon him, adorned with a very rich covering: and he ran fiercely and struck Heliodorus with his fore feet, and he that sat upon him seemed to have armour of gold.\n26 Moreover there appeared two other young men beautiful and strong, bright and glorious, and in comely apparel: who stood by him, on either side, and scourged him without ceasing with many stripes.\n27 And Heliodorus suddenly fell to the ground, and they took him up covered with great darkness, and having put him into a litter they carried him out.\n28 So he that came with many servants, and all his guard into the aforesaid treasury, was carried out, no one being able to help him, the manifest power of God being known.\n29 And he indeed by the power of God lay speechless, and without all hope of recovery.\n30 But they praised the Lord because he had glorified his place: and the temple, that a little before was full of fear and trouble, when the almighty Lord appeared, was filled with joy and gladness.\n31 Then some of the friends of Heliodorus forthwith begged of Onias, that he would call upon the most High to grant him his life, who was ready to give up the ghost.\n32 So the high priest considering that the king might perhaps suspect that some mischief had been done to Heliodorus by the Jews, offered a sacrifice of health for the recovery of the man.\n33 And when the high priest was praying, the same young men in the same clothing stood by Heliodorus, and said to him: Give thanks to Onias the priest: because for his sake the Lord hath granted thee life.\n34 And thou having been scourged by God, declare unto all men the great works and the power of God. And having spoken thus, they appeared no more.\n35 So Heliodorus after he had offered a sacrifice to God, and made great vows to him, that had granted him life, and given thanks to Onias, taking his troops with him, returned to the king.\n36 And he testified to all men the works of the great God, which he had seen with his own eyes.\n37 And when the king asked Heliodorus, who might be a fit man to be sent yet once more to Jerusalem, he said:\n38 If thou hast any enemy or traitor to thy kingdom, send him thither, and thou shalt receive him again scourged, if so be he escape: for there is undoubtedly in that place a certain power of God.\n39 For he that hath his dwelling in the heavens, is the visitor, and protector of that place, and he striketh and destroyeth them that come to do evil to it.\n40 And the things concerning Heliodorus, and the keeping of the treasury fell out in this manner.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- Book: Acts\n- Chapter: 21\n- Verse: 37", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Acts 21:37 from the New Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"And as Paul was about to be brought into the castle, he saith to the tribune: May I speak something to thee?

Tell me therefore the dream, that I may know that you also give a true interpretation thereof.\n10 Then the Chaldeans answered before the king, and said: There is no man upon earth, that can accomplish thy word, O king, neither doth any king, though great and mighty, ask such a thing of any diviner, or wise man, or Chaldean.\n11 For the thing that thou askest, O king, is difficult; nor can any one be found that can shew it before the king, except the gods, whose conversation is not with men.\n12 Upon hearing this, the king in fury, and in great wrath, commanded that all the wise men of Babylon should be put to death.\n13 And the decree being gone forth, the wise men were slain: and Daniel and his companions were sought for, to be put to death.\n14 Then Daniel inquired concerning the law and the sentence, of Arioch the general of the king's army, who was gone forth to kill the wise men of Babylon.\n15 And he asked him that had received the orders of the king, why so cruel a sentence was gone forth from the face of the king. And when Arioch had told the matter to Daniel,\n16 Daniel went in and desired of the king, that he would give him time to resolve the question and declare it to the king.\n17 And he went into his house, and told the matter to Ananias, and Misael, and Azarias his companions:\n18 To the end that they should ask mercy at the face of the God of heaven concerning this secret, and that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.\n19 Then was the mystery revealed to Daniel by a vision in the night: and Daniel blessed the God of heaven,\n20 And speaking he said: Blessed be the name of the Lord from eternity and for evermore: for wisdom and fortitude are his.\n21 And he changeth times and ages: taketh away kingdoms and establisheth them, giveth wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to them that have understanding.\n22 He revealeth deep and hidden things, and knoweth what is in darkness: and light is with him.\n23 To thee, O God of our fathers, I give thanks, and I praise thee: because thou hast given me wisdom and strength: and now thou hast shewn me what we desired of thee, for thou hast made known to us, the king's discourse.\n24 After this Daniel went in to Arioch, to whom the king had given orders to destroy the wise men of Babylon, and he spoke thus to him: Destroy not the wise men of Babylon: bring me in before the king, and I will tell the solution to the king.\n25 Then Arioch in haste brought in Daniel to the king, and said to him: I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Juda, that will resolve the question to the king.\n26 The king answered, and said to Daniel, whose name was Baltassar: Thinkest thou indeed that thou canst tell me the dream that I saw, and the interpretation thereof?\n27 And Daniel made answer before the king, and said: The secret that the king desireth to know, none of the wise men, or the philosophers, or the diviners, or the soothsayers can declare to the king.\n28 But there is a God in heaven that revealeth mysteries, who hath shewn to thee, O king Nabuchodonosor, what is to come to pass in the latter times. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these:\n29 Thou, O king, didst begin to think in thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth mysteries shewed thee what shall come to pass.\n30 To me also this secret is revealed, not by any wisdom that I have more than all men alive: but that the interpretation might be made manifest to the king, and thou mightest know the thoughts of thy mind.\n31 Thou, O king, sawest, and behold there was as it were a great statue: this statue, which was great and high, tall of stature, stood before thee, and the look thereof was terrible.\n32 The head of this statue was of fine gold, but the breast and the arms of silver, and the belly and the thighs of brass:\n33 And the legs of iron, the feet part of iron and part of clay.\n34 Thus thou sawest, till a stone was cut out of a mountain without hands: and it struck the statue upon the feet thereof that were of iron and of clay, and broke them in pieces.\n35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of a summer's thrashingfloor, and they were carried away by the wind: and there was no place found for them: but the stone that struck the statue, became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.\n36 This is the dream: we will also tell the interpretation thereof before thee, O king.\n37 Thou art a king of kings: and the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, and strength, and power, and glory:\n38 And all places wherein the children of men, and the beasts of the field do dwell: he hath also given the birds of the air into thy hand, and hath put all things under thy power: thou therefore art the head of gold.\n39 And after thee shall rise up another kingdom, inferior to thee, of silver: and another third kingdom of brass, which shall rule over all the world.\n40 And the fourth kingdom shall be as iron. As iron breaketh into pieces, and subdueth all things, so shall that break and destroy all these.\n41 And whereas thou sawest the feet, and the toes, part of potter's clay, and part of iron: the kingdom shall be divided, but yet it shall take its origin from the iron, according as thou sawest the iron mixed with the miry clay.\n42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.\n43 And whereas thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall be mingled indeed together with the seed of man, but they shall not stick fast one to another, as iron cannot be mixed with clay.\n44 But in the days of those kingdoms the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed, and his kingdom shall not be delivered up to another people, and it shall break in pieces, and shall consume all these kingdoms, and itself shall stand for ever.\n45 According as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and broke in pieces, the clay, and the iron, and the brass, and the silver, and the gold, the great God hath shewn the king what shall come to pass hereafter, and the dream is true, and the interpretation thereof is faithful.\n46 Then king Nabuchodonosor fell on his face, and worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer in sacrifice to him victims and incense.\n47 And the king spoke to Daniel, and said: Verily your God is the God of gods, and Lord of kings, and a revealer of hidden things: seeing thou couldst discover this secret.\n48 Then the king advanced Daniel to a high station, and gave him many and great gifts: and he made him governor over all the provinces of Babylon, and chief of the magistrates over all the wise men of Babylon.\n49 And Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago over the works of the province of Babylon: but Daniel himself was in the king's palace.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Verse 3 from chapter 22 in Exodus?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Exodus 22:3, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"But if he did this when the sun is risen, he hath committed murder, and he shall die.

So two and twenty thousand men went away from mount Galaad and returned home, and only ten thousand remained.\n4 And the Lord said to Gedeon: The people are still too many, bring them to the waters, and there I will try them: and of whom I shall say to thee, This shall go with thee, let him go: whom I shall forbid to go, let him return.\n5 And when the people were come down to the waters, the Lord said to Gedeon: They that shall lap the water with their tongues, as dogs are wont to lap, thou shalt set apart by themselves: but they that shall drink bowing down their knees, shall be on the other side.\n6 And the number of them that had lapped water, casting it with the hand to their mouth, was three hundred men: and all the rest of the multitude had drunk kneeling.\n7 And the Lord said to Gedeon: By the three hundred men, that lapped water, I will save you, and deliver Madian into thy hand: but let all the rest of the people return to their place.\n8 So taking victuals and trumpets according to their number, he ordered all the rest of the multitude to depart to their tents: and he with the three hundred gave himself to the battle.

So all the camp was troubled, and crying out and howling they fled away.\n22 And the three hundred men nevertheless persisted sounding the trumpets.

Here it is:\nDaniel Chapter 13\n1 Now there was a man that dwelt in Babylon, and his name was Joakim:\n2 And he took a wife whose name was Susanna, the daughter of Helcias, a very beautiful woman, and one that feared God.\n3 For her parents being just, had instructed their daughter according to the law of Moses.\n4 Now Joakim was very rich, and had an orchard near his house: and the Jews resorted to him, because he was the most honourable of them all.\n5 And there were two of the ancients of the people appointed judges that year, of whom the Lord said: Iniquity came out from Babylon from the ancient judges, that seemed to govern the people.\n6 These men frequented the house of Joakim, and all that had any matters of judgment came to them.\n7 And when the people departed away at noon, Susanna went in, and walked in her husband's orchard.\n8 And the old men saw her going in every day, and walking: and they were inflamed with lust towards her:\n9 And they perverted their own mind and turned away their eyes that they might not look unto heaven, nor remember just judgments.\n10 So they were both wounded with the love of her, yet they did not make known their grief one to the other:\n11 For they were ashamed to declare to one another their lust, being desirous to have to do with her.\n12 And they watched carefully every day to see her. And one said to the other:\n13 Let us now go home, for it is dinner time. So going out they departed one from another.\n14 And turning back again, they came both to the same place: and asking one another the cause, they acknowledged their lust; and then they agreed upon a time, when they might find her alone.\n15 And it fell out, as they watched a fit day, she went in on a time, as yesterday and the day before, with two maids only, and was desirous to wash herself in the orchard: for it was hot weather.\n16 And there was nobody there, but the two old men that had hid themselves and were beholding her.\n17 So she said to the maids: Bring me oil, and washing balls, and shut the doors of the orchard, that I may wash me.\n18 And they did as she bade them: and they shut the doors of the orchard, and went out by a back door to fetch what she had commanded them, and they knew not that the elders were hid within.\n19 Now when the maids were gone forth, the two elders arose, and ran to her, and said:\n20 Behold the doors of the orchard are shut, and nobody seeth us, and we are in love with thee: wherefore consent to us, and lie with us.\n21 But if thou wilt not, we will bear witness against thee, that a young man was with thee, and therefore thou didst send away thy maids from thee.\n22 Susanna sighed, and said: I am straitened on every side: for if I do this thing, it is death to me: and if I do it not, I shall not escape your hands.\n23 But it is better for me to fall into your hands without doing it, than to sin in the sight of the Lord.\n24 With that Susanna cried out with a loud voice: and the elders also cried out against her.\n25 And one of them ran to the door of the orchard, and opened it.\n26 So when the servants of the house heard the cry in the orchard, they rushed in by the back door to see what was the matter.\n27 But after the old men had spoken, the servants were greatly ashamed: for never had there been any such word said of Susanna. And on the next day,\n28 When the people were come to Joakim her husband, the two elders also came full of wicked device against Susanna, to put her to death.\n29 And they said before the people: Send to Susanna daughter of Helcias the wife of Joakim. And presently they sent.\n30 And she came with her parents, and children, and all her kindred.\n31 Now Susanna was exceeding delicate, and beautiful to behold.\n32 But those wicked men commanded that her face should be uncovered, (for she was covered,) that so at least they might be satisfied with her beauty.\n33 Therefore her friends and all her acquaintance wept.\n34 But the two elders rising up in the midst of the people, laid their hands upon her head.\n35 And she weeping looked up to heaven, for her heart had confidence in the Lord.\n36 And the elders said: As we walked in the orchard alone, this woman came in with two maids, and shut the doors of the orchard, and sent away the maids from her.\n37 Then a young man that was there hid came to her, and lay with her.\n38 But we that were in a corner of the orchard, seeing this wickedness, ran up to them, and we saw them lie together.\n39 And him indeed we could not take, because he was stronger than us, and opening the doors he leaped out:\n40 But having taken this woman, we asked who the young man was, but she would not tell us: of this thing we are witnesses.\n41 The multitude believed them as being the elders and the judges of the people, and they condemned her to death.\n42 Then Susanna cried out with a loud voice, and said: O eternal God, who knowest hidden things, who knowest all things before they come to pass,\n43 Thou knowest that they have borne false witness against me: and behold I must die, whereas I have done none of these things, which these men have maliciously forged against me.\n44 And the Lord heard her voice.\n45 And when she was led to be put to death, the Lord raised up the holy spirit of a young boy, whose name was Daniel.\n46 And he cried out with a loud voice I am clear from the blood of this woman.\n47 Then all the people turning themselves towards him, said: What meaneth this word that thou hast spoken?\n48 But he standing in the midst of them, said: Are ye so foolish, ye children of Israel, that without examination or knowledge of the truth, you have condemned a daughter of Israel?\n49 Return to judgment, for they have borne false witness against her.\n50 So all the people turned again in haste, and the old men said to him: Come, and sit thou down among us, and shew it us: seeing God hath given thee the honour of old age.\n51 And Daniel said to the people: Separate these two far from one another, and I will examine them.\n52 So when they were put asunder one from the other, he called one of them, and said to him: O thou that art grown old in evil days, now are thy sins come out, which thou hast committed before:\n53 In judging unjust judgments, oppressing the innocent, and letting the guilty to go free, whereas the Lord saith: The innocent and the just thou shalt not kill.\n54 Now then, if thou sawest her, tell me under what tree thou sawest them conversing together. He said: Under a mastic tree.\n55 And Daniel said: Well hast thou lied against thy own head: for behold the angel of God having received the sentence of him, shall cut thee in two.\n56 And having put him aside, he commanded that the other should come, and he said to him: O thou seed of Chanaan, and not of Juda, beauty hath deceived thee, and lust hath perverted thy heart:\n57 Thus did you do to the daughters of Israel, and they for fear conversed with you: but a daughter of Juda would not abide your wickedness.\n58 Now therefore tell me, under what tree didst thou take them conversing together. And he answered: Under a holm tree.\n59 And Daniel said to him: Well hast thou also lied against thy own head: for the angel of the Lord waiteth with a sword to cut thee in two, and to destroy you.\n60 With that all the assembly cried out with a loud voice, and they blessed God, who saveth them that trust in him.\n61 And they rose up against the two elders, (for Daniel had convicted them of false witness by their own mouth,) and they did to them as they had maliciously dealt against their neighbour,\n62 To fulfill the law of Moses: and they put them to death, and innocent blood was saved in that day.\n63 But Helcias and his wife praised God, for their daughter Susanna, with Joakim her husband, and all her kindred, because there was no dishonesty found in her.\n64 And Daniel became great in the sight of the people from that day, and thenceforward.\n65 And king Astyages was gathered to his fathers, and Cyrus the Persian received his kingdom.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does it say in Exodus chapter 2 verse 16?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Exodus 2:16, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And the priest of Madian had seven daughters, who came to draw water: and when the troughs were filled, desired to water their father's flocks.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"They say therefore to the blind man again: What sayest thou of him that hath opened thy eyes?

But others said: How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.\n17 They say therefore to the blind man again: What sayest thou of him that hath opened thy eyes? And he said: He is a prophet.\n18 The Jews then did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight,\n19 And asked them, saying: Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then doth he now see?\n20 His parents answered them, and said: We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:\n21 But how he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: ask himself: he is of age, let him speak for himself.\n22 These things his parents said, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had already agreed among themselves, that if any man should confess him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.\n23 Therefore did his parents say: He is of age, ask himself.\n24 They therefore called the man again that had been blind, and said to him: Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.\n25 He said therefore to them: If he be a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that whereas I was blind, now I see.\n26 They said then to him: What did he to thee? How did he open thy eyes?\n27 He answered them: I have told you already, and you have heard: why would you hear it again? will you also become his disciples?\n28 They reviled him therefore, and said: Be thou his disciple; but we are the disciples of Moses.\n29 We know that God spoke to Moses: but as to this man, we know not from whence he is.\n30 The man answered, and said to them: Why, herein is a wonderful thing, that you know not from whence he is, and he hath opened my eyes.\n31 Now we know that God doth not hear sinners: but if a man be a server of God, and doth his will, him he heareth.\n32 From the beginning of the world it hath not been heard, that any man hath opened the eyes of one born blind.\n33 Unless this man were of God, he could not do any thing.\n34 They answered, and said to him: Thou wast wholly born in sins, and dost thou teach us?

But they that sought them, when they found them not, returned into Jerusalem.\n21 And when they were gone, they came up out of the well, and going on told king David, and said: Arise, and pass quickly over the river: for this manner of counsel has Achitophel given against you.\n22 So David arose, and all the people that were with him, and they passed over the Jordan, until it grew light, and not one of them was left that was not gone over the river.\n23 But Achitophel seeing that his counsel was not followed, saddled his ass, and arose and went home to his house and to his city, and putting his house in order, hanged himself, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father.\n24 But David came to the camp, and Absalom passed over the Jordan, be and all the men of Israel with him.\n25 Now Absalom appointed Amasa in Joab's stead over the army: and Amasa was the son of a man who was called Jethra of Jezrael, who went in to Abigail the daughter of Naas, the sister of Sarvia who was the mother of Joab.\n26 And Israel camped with Absalom in the land of Galaad.\n27 And when David was come to the camp, Sobi the son of Naas of Rabbath of the children of Ammon, and Machir the son of Ammihel of Lodabar, and Berzellai the Galaadite of Rogelim,\n28 Brought him beds, and tapestry, and earthen vessels, and wheat, and barley, and meal, and parched corn, and beans, and lentils, and fried pulse,\n29 And honey, and butter, and sheep, and fat calves, and they gave to David and the people that were with him, to eat: for they suspected that the people were faint with hunger and thirst in the wilderness.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you quote 2 Timothy 4:2 for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the New Testament at 2 Timothy 4:2 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"Preach the word: be instant in season, out of season: reprove, entreat, rebuke in all patience and doctrine.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Recite Acts 23:34", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the New Testament, Acts chapter 23, verse 34 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"And when he had read it, and had asked of what province he was, and understood that he was of Cilicia;\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Read me Daniel 10:2", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Daniel chapter 10, verse 2, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"In those days I Daniel mourned the days of three weeks.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"In those days I Daniel mourned the days of three weeks.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in Daniel, chapter 10.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\nDaniel Chapter 10\n1 In the third year of Cyrus king of the Persians, a word was revealed to Daniel surnamed Baltassar, and a true word, and great strength: and he understood the word: for there is need of understanding in a vision.\n2 In those days I Daniel mourned the days of three weeks.\n3 I ate no desirable bread, and neither flesh, nor wine entered into my mouth, neither was I anointed with ointment: till the days of three weeks were accomplished.\n4 And in the four and twentieth day of the first month I was by the great river which is the Tigris.\n5 And I lifted up my eyes, and I saw: and behold a man clothed in linen, and his loins were girded with the finest gold:\n6 And his body was like the chrysolite, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as a burning lamp: and his arms, and all downward even to the feet, like in appearance to glittering brass: and the voice of his word like the voice of a multitude.\n7 And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw it not: but an exceeding great terror fell upon them, and they fled away, and hid themselves.\n8 And I being left alone saw this great vision: and there remained no strength in me, and the appearance of my countenance was changed in me, and I fainted away, and retained no strength.\n9 And I heard the voice of his words: and when I heard, I lay in a consternation, upon my face, and my face was close to the ground.\n10 And behold a hand touched me, and lifted me up upon my knees, and upon the joints of my hands.\n11 And he said to me: Daniel, thou man of desires, understand the words that I speak to thee, and stand upright: for I am sent now to thee.

And Urias heard it, and was afraid, and fled and went into Egypt.\n22 And king Joakim sent men into Egypt, Elnathan the son of Achobor, and men with him into Egypt.\n23 And they brought Urias out of Egypt: and brought him to king Joakim, and he slew him with the sword: and he cast his dead body into the graves of the common people.\n24 So the hand of Ahicam the son of Saphan was with Jeremias, that he should not be delivered into the hands of the people, to put him to death.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the bible does it say \"So the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have constantly kept the commandment of their father, which he commanded them: but this people hath not obeyed me.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The quote \"So the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have constantly kept the commandment of their father, which he commanded them: but this people hath not obeyed me.\" is from Jeremiah 35:16 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Recite Job 6:14", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Job 6:14 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"He that taketh away mercy from his friend, forsaketh the fear of the Lord.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"The Jews therefore, who were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary that she rose up speedily and went out, followed her, saying: She goeth to the grave to weep there.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in John, chapter 11.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\nJohn Chapter 11\n1 Now there was a certain man sick, named Lazarus, of Bethania, of the town of Mary and Martha her sister.\n2 (And Mary was she that anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair: whose brother Lazarus was sick.)\n3 His sisters therefore sent to him, saying: Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.\n4 And Jesus hearing it, said to them: This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God: that the Son of God may be glorified by it.\n5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister Mary, and Lazarus.\n6 When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he still remained in the same place two days.\n7 Then after that, he said to his disciples: Let us go into Judea again.\n8 The disciples say to him: Rabbi, the Jews but now sought to stone thee: and goest thou thither again?\n9 Jesus answered: Are there not twelve hours of the day? If a man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world:\n10 But if he walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.\n11 These things he said; and after that he said to them: Lazarus our friend sleepeth; but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.\n12 His disciples therefore said: Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.\n13 But Jesus spoke of his death; and they thought that he spoke of the repose of sleep.\n14 Then therefore Jesus said to them plainly: Lazarus is dead.\n15 And I am glad, for your sakes, that I was not there, that you may believe: but let us go to him.\n16 Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples: Let us also go, that we may die with him.\n17 Jesus therefore came, and found that he had been four days already in the grave.\n18 (Now Bethania was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off.)\n19 And many of the Jews were come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.\n20 Martha therefore, as soon as she heard that Jesus had come, went to meet him: but Mary sat at home.\n21 Martha therefore said to Jesus: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.\n22 But now also I know that whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.\n23 Jesus saith to her: Thy brother shall rise again.\n24 Martha saith to him: I know that he shall rise again, in the resurrection at the last day.\n25 Jesus said to her: I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, although he be dead, shall live:\n26 And every one that liveth, and believeth in me, shall not die for ever. Believest thou this?\n27 She saith to him: Yea, Lord, I have believed that thou art Christ the Son of the living God, who art come into this world.\n28 And when she had said these things, she went, and called her sister Mary secretly, saying: The master is come, and calleth for thee.\n29 She, as soon as she heard this, riseth quickly, and cometh to him.\n30 For Jesus was not yet come into the town: but he was still in that place where Martha had met him.\n31 The Jews therefore, who were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary that she rose up speedily and went out, followed her, saying: She goeth to the grave to weep there.\n32 When Mary therefore was come where Jesus was, seeing him, she fell down at his feet, and saith to him: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.\n33 Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews that were come with her, weeping, groaned in the spirit, and troubled himself,\n34 And said: Where have you laid him? They say to him: Lord, come and see.\n35 And Jesus wept.\n36 The Jews therefore said: Behold how he loved him.\n37 But some of them said: Could not he that opened the eyes of the man born blind, have caused that this man should not die?\n38 Jesus therefore again groaning in himself, cometh to the sepulchre. Now it was a cave; and a stone was laid over it.\n39 Jesus saith: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him: Lord, by this time he stinketh, for he is now of four days.\n40 Jesus saith to her: Did not I say to thee, that if thou believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?\n41 They took therefore the stone away. And Jesus lifting up his eyes said: Father, I give thee thanks that thou hast heard me.\n42 And I knew that thou hearest me always; but because of the people who stand about have I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.\n43 When he had said these things, he cried with a loud voice: Lazarus, come forth.\n44 And presently he that had been dead came forth, bound feet and hands with winding bands; and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus said to them: Loose him, and let him go.\n45 Many therefore of the Jews, who were come to Mary and Martha, and had seen the things that Jesus did, believed in him.\n46 But some of them went to the Pharisees, and told them the things that Jesus had done.\n47 The chief priests therefore, and the Pharisees, gathered a council, and said: What do we, for this man doth many miracles?\n48 If we let him alone so, all will believe in him; and the Romans will come, and take away our place and nation.\n49 But one of them, named Caiphas, being the high priest that year, said to them: You know nothing.\n50 Neither do you consider that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.\n51 And this he spoke not of himself: but being the high priest of that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation.\n52 And not only for the nation, but to gather together in one the children of God, that were dispersed.\n53 From that day therefore they devised to put him to death.\n54 Wherefore Jesus walked no more openly among the Jews; but he went into a country near the desert, unto a city that is called Ephrem, and there he abode with his disciples.\n55 And the pasch of the Jews was at hand; and many from the country went up to Jerusalem, before the pasch to purify themselves.\n56 They sought therefore for Jesus; and they discoursed one with another, standing in the temple: What think you that he is not come to the festival day?

Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.\n10 And if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead, because of sin; but the spirit liveth, because of justification.\n11 And if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead, dwell in you; he that raised up Jesus Christ from the dead, shall quicken also your mortal bodies, because of his Spirit that dwelleth in you.\n12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.\n13 For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die: but if by the Spirit you mortify the deeds of the flesh, you shall live.\n14 For whosoever are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.\n15 For you have not received the spirit of bondage again in fear; but you have received the spirit of adoption of sons, whereby we cry: Abba (Father).\n16 For the Spirit himself giveth testimony to our spirit, that we are the sons of God.\n17 And if sons, heirs also; heirs indeed of God, and joint heirs with Christ: yet so, if we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified with him.\n18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this time are not worthy to be compared with the glory to come, that shall be revealed in us.\n19 For the expectation of the creature waiteth for the revelation of the sons of God.\n20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him that made it subject, in hope:\n21 Because the creature also itself shall be delivered from the servitude of corruption, into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.\n22 For we know that every creature groaneth and travaileth in pain, even till now.\n23 And not only it, but ourselves also, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption of the sons of God, the redemption of our body.\n24 For we are saved by hope. But hope that is seen, is not hope. For what a man seeth, why doth he hope for?\n25 But if we hope for that which we see not, we wait for it with patience.\n26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmity. For we know not what we should pray for as we ought; but the Spirit himself asketh for us with unspeakable groanings.\n27 And he that searcheth the hearts, knoweth what the Spirit desireth; because he asketh for the saints according to God.\n28 And we know that to them that love God, all things work together unto good, to such as, according to his purpose, are called to be saints.\n29 For whom he foreknew, he also predestinated to be made conformable to the image of his Son; that he might be the firstborn amongst many brethren.\n30 And whom he predestinated, them he also called. And whom he called, them he also justified. And whom he justified, them he also glorified.\n31 What shall we then say to these things?

They answered the king, and said: True, O king.\n92 He answered, and said: Behold I see four men loose, and walking in the midst of the fire, and there is no hurt in them, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.\n93 Then Nabuchodonosor came to the door of the burning fiery furnace, and said: Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, ye servants of the most high God, go ye forth, and come. And immediately Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago went out from the midst of the fire.\n94 And the nobles, and the magistrates, and the judges, and the great men of the king being gathered together, considered these men, that the fire had no power on their bodies, and that not a hair of their head had been singed, nor their garments altered, nor the smell of the fire had passed on them.\n95 Then Nabuchodonosor breaking forth, said: Blessed be the God of them, to wit, of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that believed in him: and they changed the king's word, and delivered up their bodies that they might not serve, nor adore any god, except their own God.\n96 By me therefore this decree is made, that every people, tribe, and tongue, which shall speak blasphemy against the God of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, shall be destroyed, and their houses laid waste: for there is no other God that can save in this manner.\n97 Then the king promoted Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, in the province of Babylon.\n98 Nabuchodonosor the king, to all peoples, nations, and tongues, that dwell in all the earth, peace be multiplied unto you.\n99 The most high God hath wrought signs and wonders toward me.

And I understood this was the word of the Lord.\n9 And I bought the held of my uncle's son, that is in Anathoth: and I weighed him the money, seven staters, and ten pieces of silver.\n10 And I wrote it in a book and sealed it, and took witnesses: and I weighed him the money in the balances.\n11 And I took the deed of the purchase that was sealed, and the stipulations, and the ratifications with

God of Israel: Houses, and fields, and vineyards shall be possessed again in this land.\n16 And after I had delivered the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neri, I prayed to the Lord, saying:\n17 Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God, behold thou hast made heaven and earth by thy great power, and thy stretched out arm: no word shall be hard to thee:\n18 Thou shewest mercy unto thousands, and returnest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: O most mighty, great, and powerful, the Lord of hosts is thy name.\n19 Great in counsel and incomprehensible in thought: whose

I will deliver this city into the hands of the Chaldeans, and into the hands of the king of Babylon, and they shall take it.\n29 And the Chaldeans that fight against this city, shall come and set it on fire, and burn it, with the houses upon whose roofs they offered sacrifice to Baal, and poured out drink offerings to strange gods, to provoke me to wrath.\n30 For the children of Israel, and the

they have turned their backs to me, and not their faces: when I taught them early in the morning, and instructed them, and they would not hearken to receive instruction.\n34 And they have set their idols in the house, in which my name is called upon, to defile it.\n35 And they have built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Ennom, to consecrate their sons and their daughters to Moloch: which I commanded them not, neither entered it into my heart, that they should do this abomination, and cause Juda to sin.\n36 And now, therefore, thus saith the Lord the God of Israel to this city, whereof you say that it shall be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence:\n37 Behold I will gather them together out of all the lands to which I have cast them out in my anger, and in my wrath, and in my great indignation: and I will bring them again into this place, and will cause them to dwell securely.\n38 And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.\n39 And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me all days: and that it may be well with them, and with their children after them.\n40

I shall do them good: and I will plant them in this land in truth, with my whole heart, and with all my soul.\n42 For thus saith the Lord: As I have brought upon this people all this great evil: so will I bring upon them all the good that I now speak to them.\n43 And fields shall be purchased in this land: whereof you say that it is desolate, because there remaineth neither man nor beast, and it is given into the hands of the Chaldeans.\n44 Fields shall be bought for money, and deeds shall be written, and sealed, and witnesses shall be taken, in the land of Benjamin, and round about

But he that sent me, is true: and the things I have heard of him, these same I speak in the world.\n27 And they understood not, that he called God his Father.\n28 Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know, that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak:\n29 And he that sent me, is with me, and he hath not left me alone: for I do always the things that please him.\n30 When he spoke these things, many believed in him.\n31 Then Jesus said to those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.\n32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.\n33 They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?\n34 Jesus answered them: Amen, amen I say unto you: that whosoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin.\n35 Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the son abideth for ever.\n36 If therefore the son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.\n37 I know that you are the children of Abraham: but you seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.\n38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do the things that you have seen with your father.\n39 They answered, and said to him: Abraham is our father.

This Abraham did not.\n41 You do the works of your father. They said therefore to him: We are not born of fornication: we have one Father, even God.\n42 Jesus therefore said to them: If God were your Father, you would indeed love me. For from God I proceeded, and came; for I came not of myself, but he sent me:\n43 Why do you not know my speech? Because you cannot hear my word.\n44 You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you will do.

If I say the truth to you, why do you not believe me?\n47 He that is of God, heareth the words of God. Therefore you hear them not, because you are not of God.\n48 The Jews therefore answered, and said to him: Do not we say well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?\n49 Jesus answered: I have not a devil: but I honour my Father, and you have dishonoured me.\n50 But I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.\n51 Amen, amen I say to you: If any man keep my word, he shall not see death for ever.\n52 The Jews therefore said: Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest: If any man keep my word, he shall not taste death for ever.\n53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead. Whom dost thou make thyself?\n54 Jesus answered: If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father that glorifieth me, of whom you say that he is your God.\n55 And you have not known him, but I know him. And if I shall say that I know him not, I shall be like to you, a liar. But I do know him, and do keep his word.\n56 Abraham your father rejoiced that he might see my day: he saw it, and was glad.\n57 The Jews therefore said to him: Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?\n58 Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say to you, before Abraham was made, I am.\n59 They took up stones therefore to cast at him.

If a man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world:\n10 But if he walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.\n11 These things he said; and after that he said to them: Lazarus our friend sleepeth; but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.\n12 His disciples therefore said: Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.\n13 But Jesus spoke of his death; and they thought that he spoke of the repose of sleep.\n14 Then therefore Jesus said to them plainly: Lazarus is dead.\n15 And I am glad, for your sakes, that I was not there, that you may believe: but let us go to him.\n16 Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples: Let us also go, that we may die with him.\n17 Jesus therefore came, and found that he had been four days already in the grave.\n18 (Now Bethania was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off.)\n19 And many of the Jews were come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.\n20 Martha therefore, as soon as she heard that Jesus had come, went to meet him: but Mary sat at home.\n21 Martha therefore said to Jesus: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.\n22 But now also I know that whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.\n23 Jesus saith to her: Thy brother shall rise again.\n24 Martha saith to him: I know that he shall rise again, in the resurrection at the last day.\n25 Jesus said to her: I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, although he be dead, shall live:\n26 And every one that liveth, and believeth in me, shall not die for ever. Believest thou this?\n27 She saith to him: Yea, Lord, I have believed that thou art Christ the Son of the living God, who art come into this world.\n28 And when she had said these things, she went, and called her sister Mary secretly, saying: The master is come, and calleth for thee.\n29 She, as soon as she heard this, riseth quickly, and cometh to him.\n30 For Jesus was not yet come into the town: but he was still in that place where Martha had met him.\n31 The Jews therefore, who were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary that she rose up speedily and went out, followed her, saying: She goeth to the grave to weep there.\n32 When Mary therefore was come where Jesus was, seeing him, she fell down at his feet, and saith to him: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.\n33 Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews that were come with her, weeping, groaned in the spirit, and troubled himself,\n34 And said: Where have you laid him? They say to him: Lord, come and see.\n35 And Jesus wept.\n36 The Jews therefore said: Behold how he loved him.\n37 But some of them said: Could not he that opened the eyes of the man born blind, have caused that this man should not die?\n38 Jesus therefore again groaning in himself, cometh to the sepulchre. Now it was a cave; and a stone was laid over it.\n39 Jesus saith: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him: Lord, by this time he stinketh, for he is now of four days.\n40 Jesus saith to her: Did not I say to thee, that if thou believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?\n41 They took therefore the stone away. And Jesus lifting up his eyes said: Father, I give thee thanks that thou hast heard me.\n42 And I knew that thou hearest me always; but because of the people who stand about have I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.\n43 When he had said these things, he cried with a loud voice: Lazarus, come forth.\n44 And presently he that had been dead came forth, bound feet and hands with winding bands; and his face was bound about with a napkin.

And the reapers are the angels.\n40 Even as cockle therefore is gathered up, and burnt with fire: so shall it be at the end of the world.\n41 The Son of man shall send his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all scandals, and them that work iniquity.\n42 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.\n43 Then shall the just shine as the sun, in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.\n44 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a treasure hidden in a field. Which a man having found, hid it, and for joy thereof goeth, and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.\n45 Again the kingdom of heaven is like to a merchant seeking good pearls.\n46 Who when he had found one pearl of great price, went his way, and sold all that he had, and bought it.\n47 Again the kingdom of heaven is like to a net cast into the sea, and gathering together of all kind of fishes.\n48 Which, when it was filled, they drew out, and sitting by the shore, they chose out the good into vessels, but the bad they cast forth.\n49 So shall it be at the end of the world. The angels shall go out, and shall separate the wicked from among the just.\n50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.\n51 Have ye understood all these things? They say to him: Yes.\n52 He said unto them: Therefore every scribe instructed in the kingdom of heaven, is like to a man that is a householder, who bringeth forth out of his treasure new things and old.\n53 And it came to pass: when Jesus had finished these parables, he passed from thence.\n54 And coming into his own country, he taught them in their synagogues, so that they wondered and said: How came this man by this wisdom and miracles?\n55 Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary, and his brethren James, and Joseph, and Simon, and Jude:\n56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence therefore hath he all these things?\n57 And they were scandalized in his regard. But Jesus said to them: A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.\n58 And he wrought not many miracles there, because of their unbelief.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you quote Philippians 2:16 for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Philippians 2:16, New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"Holding forth the word of life to my glory in the day of Christ, because I have not run in vain, nor laboured in vain.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"The Lord is compassionate and merciful: longsuffering and plenteous in mercy.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're asking about is in Psalm, chapter 102.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\nPsalm Chapter 102\n1 For David himself.

awaketh early to seek her, shall not labour: for he shall find her sitting at his door.\n16 To think therefore upon her, is perfect understanding: and he that watcheth for her, shall quickly be

Jesus saith to them: I am he. And Judas also, who betrayed him, stood with them.\n6 As soon therefore as he had said to them: I am he; they went backward, and fell to the ground.\n7 Again therefore he asked them: Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.\n8 Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he. If therefore you seek me, let these go their way.\n9 That the word might be fulfilled which he said: Of them whom thou hast given me, I have not lost any one.\n10 Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it, and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. And the name of the servant was Malchus.\n11 Jesus therefore said to Peter: Put up thy sword into the scabbard. The chalice which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?\n12 Then the band and the tribune, and the servants of the Jews, took Jesus, and bound him:\n13 And they led him away to Annas first, for he was father in law to Caiphas, who was the high priest of that year.\n14 Now Caiphas was he who had given the counsel to the Jews: That it was expedient that one man should die for the people.\n15 And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. And that disciple was known to the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the court of the high priest.\n16 But Peter stood at the door without. The other disciple therefore, who was known to the high priest, went out, and spoke to the portress, and brought in Peter.\n17 The maid therefore that was portress, saith to Peter: Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith: I am not.\n18 Now the servants and ministers stood at a fire of coals, because it was cold, and warmed themselves. And with them was Peter also, standing, and warming himself.\n19 The high priest therefore asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.\n20 Jesus answered him: I have spoken openly to the world: I have always taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither all the Jews resort; and in secret I have spoken nothing.\n21 Why asketh thou me? ask them who have heard what I have spoken unto them: behold they know what things I have said.\n22 And when he had said these things, one of the servants standing by, gave Jesus a blow, saying: Answerest thou the high priest so?\n23 Jesus answered him: If I have spoken evil, give testimony of the evil; but if well, why strikest thou me?\n24 And Annas sent him bound to Caiphas the high priest.\n25 And Simon Peter was standing, and warming himself. They said therefore to him: Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said: I am not.\n26 One of the servants of the high priest (a kinsman to him whose ear Peter cut off) saith to him: Did I not see thee in the garden with him?\n27 Again therefore Peter denied; and immediately the cock crew.\n28 Then they led Jesus from Caiphas to the governor's hall. And it was morning; and they went not into the hall, that they might not be defiled, but that they might eat the pasch.\n29 Pilate therefore went out to them, and said: What accusation bring you against this man?\n30 They answered, and said to him: If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up to thee.\n31 Pilate therefore said to them: Take him you, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him: It is not lawful for us to put any man to death;\n32 That the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he said, signifying what death he should die.\n33 Pilate therefore went into the hall again, and called Jesus, and said to him: Art thou the king of the Jews?\n34 Jesus answered: Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or have others told it thee of me?\n35 Pilate answered: Am I a Jew? Thy own nation, and the chief priests, have delivered thee up to me: what hast thou done?\n36 Jesus answered: My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would certainly strive that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now my kingdom is not from hence.\n37 Pilate therefore said to him: Art thou a king then? Jesus answered: Thou sayest that I am a king. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world; that I should give testimony to the truth. Every one that is of the truth, heareth my voice.\n38 Pilate saith to him: What is truth? And when he said this, he went out again to the Jews, and saith to them: I find no cause in him.\n39 But you have a custom that I should release one unto you at the pasch: will you, therefore, that I release unto you the king of the Jews?\n40 Then cried they all again, saying: Not this man, but Barabbas.

Nevertheless he prevailed not to accomplish his design.\n6 So Nicanor being puffed up with exceeding great pride, thought to set up a public monument of his victory over Judas.\n7 But Machabeus ever trusted with all hope that God would help them.\n8 And he exhorted his people not to fear the coming of the nations, but to remember the help they had before received from heaven, and now to hope for victory from the Almighty.\n9 And speaking to them out of the law, and the prophets, and withal putting them in mind of the battles they had fought before, he made them more cheerful:\n10 Then after he had encouraged them, he shewed withal the falsehood of the Gentiles, and their breach of oaths.\n11 So he armed every one of them, not with defence of shield and spear, but with very good speeches and exhortations, and told them a dream worthy to be believed, whereby he rejoiced them all.\n12 Now the vision was in this manner: Onias who had been high priest, a good and virtuous man, modest in his looks, gentle in his manners, and graceful in his speech, and who from a child was exercised in virtues, holding up his hands, prayed for all the people of the Jews:\n13 After this there appeared also another man, admirable for age, and glory, and environed with great beauty and majesty:\n14 Then Onias answering, said: This is a lover of his brethren, and of the people of Israel: this is he that prayeth much for the people, and for all the holy city, Jeremias the prophet of God.\n15 Whereupon Jeremias stretched forth his right hand, and gave to Judas a sword of gold, saying:\n16 Take this holy sword a gift from God, wherewith thou shalt overthrow the adversaries of my people Israel.\n17 Thus being exhorted with the words of Judas, which were very good, and proper to stir up the courage, and strengthen the hearts of the young men, they resolved to fight, and to set upon them manfully: that valour might decide the matter, because the holy city and the temple were in danger.\n18 For their concern was less for their wives, and children, and for their brethren, and kinsfolks: but their greatest and principal fear was for the holiness of the temple.\n19 And they also that were in the city, had no little concern for them that were to be engaged in battle.\n20 And now when all expected what judgment would be given, and the enemies were at hand, and the army was set in array, the beasts and the horsemen ranged in convenient places,\n21 Machabeus considering the coming of the multitude, and the divers preparations of armour, and the fierceness of the beasts, stretching out his hands to heaven, called upon the Lord, that worketh wonders, who giveth victory to them that are worthy, not according to the power of their arms, but according as it seemeth good to him.\n22 And in his prayer he said after this manner: Thou, O Lord, who didst send thy angel in the time of Ezechias king of Juda, and didst kill a hundred and eighty-five thousand of the army of Sennacherib:\n23 Send now also, O Lord of heaven, thy good angel before us, for the fear and dread of the greatness of thy arm,\n24 That they may be afraid, who come with blasphemy against thy holy people. And thus he concluded his prayer.\n25 But Nicanor, and they that were with him came forward, with trumpets and songs.\n26 But Judas, and they that were with him, encountered them, calling upon God by prayers:\n27 So fighting with their hands, but praying to the Lord with their hearts, they slew no less than five and thirty thousand, being greatly cheered with the presence of God.\n28 And when the battle was over, and they were returning with joy, they understood that Nicanor was slain in his armour.\n29 Then making a shout, and a great noise, they blessed the Almighty Lord in their own language.\n30 And Judas, who was altogether ready, in body and mind, to die for his countrymen, commanded that Nicanor's head, and his hand with the shoulder should be cut off, and carried to Jerusalem.\n31 And when he was come thither, having called together his countrymen, and the priests to the altar, he sent also for them that were in the castle,\n32 And shewing them the head of Nicanor, and the wicked hand, which he had stretched out, with proud boasts, against the holy house of the Almighty God,\n33 He commanded also, that the tongue of the wicked Nicanor, should be cut out and given by pieces to birds, and the hand of the furious man to be hanged up over against the temple.\n34 Then all blessed the Lord of heaven, saying: Blessed be he that hath kept his own place undefiled.\n35 And he hung up Nicanor's head in the top of the castle, that it might be an evident and manifest sign of the help of God.\n36 And they all ordained by a common decree, by no means to let this day pass without solemnity:\n37 But to celebrate the thirteenth day of the month of Adar, called, in the Syrian language, the day before Mardochias' day.\n38 So these things being done with relation to Nicanor, and from that time the city being possessed by the Hebrews, I also will here make an end of my narration.\n39 Which if I have done well, and as it becometh the history, it is what I desired: but if not so perfectly, it must be pardoned me.\n40 For as it is hurtful to drink always wine, or always water, but pleasant to use sometimes the one, and sometimes the other: so if the speech be always nicely framed, it will not be grateful to the readers.

If thou do these things, manifest thyself to the world.\n5 For neither did his brethren believe in him.\n6 Then Jesus said to them: My time is not yet come; but your time is always ready.\n7 The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth: because I give testimony of it, that the works thereof are evil.\n8 Go you up to this festival day, but I go not up to this festival day: because my time is not accomplished.\n9 When he had said these things, he himself stayed in Galilee.\n10 But after his brethren were gone up, then he also went up to the feast, not openly, but, as it were, in secret.\n11 The Jews therefore sought him on the festival day, and said: Where is he?\n12 And there was much murmuring among the multitude concerning him. For some said: He is a good man. And others said: No, but he seduceth the people.\n13 Yet no man spoke openly of him, for fear of the Jews.\n14 Now about the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.\n15 And the Jews wondered, saying: How doth this man know letters, having never learned?\n16 Jesus answered them, and said: My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.\n17 If any man do the will of him; he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.\n18 He that speaketh of himself, seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and there is no injustice in him.\n19 Did Moses not give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law?\n20 Why seek you to kill me?

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

Now Eglon was exceeding fat.\n18 And when he had presented the gifts unto him, he followed his companions that came along with him.\n19 Then returning from Galgal, where the idols were, be said to the king: I have a secret message to thee, O king.

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

For he sent to me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver and gold: and I said not nay.\n8 And all the ancients, and all the people said to him: Hearken not to him, nor consent to him.\n9 Wherefore he answered the messengers of Benadad: Tell my lord the king: All that thou didst send for to me thy servant at first, I will do: but this thing I cannot do.\n10 And the messengers returning brought him word. And he sent again and said: Such and such things may the gods do to me, and more may they add, if the dust of Samaria shall suffice for handfuls for all the people that follow me.\n11 And the king of Israel answering, said: Tell him: Let not the girded boast himself as the ungirded.\n12 And it came to pass, when Benadad heard this word, that he and the kings were drinking in pavilions, and he said to his servants: Beset the city. And they beset it.\n13 And behold a prophet coming to Achab king of Israel, said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Hast thou seen all this exceeding great multitude, behold I will deliver them into thy hand this day: that thou mayest know that I am the Lord.\n14 And Achab said: By whom? And he said to him: Thus saith the Lord: By the servants of the princes of the provinces. And he said: Who shall begin to fight? And he said: Thou.\n15 So he mustered the servants of the princes of the provinces, and he found the number of two hundred and thirty-two: and he mustered after them the people, all the children of Israel, seven thousand:\n16 And they went out at noon. But Benadad was drinking himself drunk in his pavilion, and the two and thirty kings with him, who were come to help him.\n17 And the servants of the princes of the provinces went out first. And Benadad sent. And they told him, saying: There are men come out of Samaria.\n18 And he said: Whether they come for peace, take them alive: or whether they come to fight, take them alive.\n19 So the servants of the princes of the provinces went out, and the rest of the army followed:\n20 And every one slew the man that came against him: and the Syrians fled, and Israel pursued after them. And Benadad king of Syria fled away on horseback with his horsemen.\n21 But the king of Israel going out overthrew the horses and chariots, and slew the Syrians with a great slaughter.\n22 (And a prophet coming to the king of Israel, said to him: Go, and strengthen thyself, and know, and see what thou dost: for the next year the king of Syria will come up against thee.)\n23 But the servants of the king of Syria said to him: Their gods are gods of the hills, therefore they have overcome us: but it is better that we should fight against them in the plains, and we shall overcome them.\n24 Do thou therefore this thing: Remove all the kings from thy army, and put captains in their stead:\n25 And make up the number of soldiers that have been slain of thine, and horses according to the former horses, and chariots according to the chariots which thou hadst before: and we will fight against them in the plains, and thou shalt see that we shall overcome them. He believed their counsel and did so.\n26 Wherefore at the return of the year, Benadad mustered the Syrians, ancient up to Aphec, to fight against Israel.\n27 And the children of Israel were mustered, and taking victuals went out on the other side, and camped over against them, like two little flocks of goats: but the Syrians filled the land.\n28 (And a man of God coming, said to the king of Israel: Thus saith the Lord: Because the Syrians have said: The Lord is God of the hills, but is not God of the valleys: I will deliver all this great multitude into thy hand, and you shall know that I am the Lord.)\n29 And both sides set their armies in array one against the other seven days, and on the seventh day the battle was fought: and the children of Israel slew of the Syrians a hundred thousand footmen in one day.\n30 And they that remained fled to Aphec, into the city: and the wall fell upon seven and twenty thousand men, that were left. And Benadad fleeing went into the city, into a chamber that was within a chamber.\n31 And his servants said to him: Behold, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful: so let us put sackcloth on our loins, and ropes on our heads, and go out to the king of Israel: perhaps he will save our lives.\n32 So they girded sackcloth on their loins, and put ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel, and said to him: Thy servant Benadad saith: I beseech thee let me have my life. And he said: If he be yet alive he is my brother.\n33 The men took this for a sign: and in haste caught the word out of his mouth, and said: Thy brother Benadad. And he said to them: Go, and bring him to me. Then Benadad came out to him, and he lifted him up into his chariot.\n34 And he said to him: The cities which my father took from thy father, I will restore: and do thou make thee streets in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria, and having made a league I will depart from thee. So he made a league with him, and let him go.\n35 Then a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his companion in the word of the Lord: Strike me. But he would not strike.\n36 Then he said to him: Because thou wouldst not hearken to the word of the Lord, behold then shalt depart from me, and a lion shall slay thee.

And casting himself upon his bed, he turned away his face to the wall, and would eat no bread.\n5 And Jezabel his wife went in to him, and said to him: What is the matter that thy soul is so grieved? and why eatest thou no bread?\n6 And he answered her: I spoke to Naboth the Jezrahelite, and said to him: Give me thy vineyard, and take money for it: or if it please thee, I will give thee a better vineyard for it. And he said: I will not give thee my vineyard.\n7 Then Jezabel his wife said to him: Thou art of great authority indeed, and governest well the kingdom of Israel. Arise, and eat bread, and be of good cheer, I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite.\n8 So she wrote letter's in Achab's name, and sealed them with his ring, and sent them to the ancients, and the chief men that were in his city, and that dwelt with Naboth.\n9 And this was the tenor of the letters: Proclaim a fast, and make Naboth sit among the chief of the people,\n10 And suborn two men, sons of Belial against him, and let them bear false witness: that he hath blasphemed God and the king: and then carry him out, and stone him, and so let him die.\n11 And the men of his city, the ancients and nobles, that dwelt with him in the city, did as Jezabel had commanded them, and as it was written in the letters which she had sent to them:\n12 They proclaimed a fast, and made Naboth sit among the chief of the people.\n13 And bringing two men, sons of the devil, they made them sit against him: and they, like men of the devil, bore witness against him before the people, saying: Naboth hath blasphemed God and the king: wherefore they brought him forth without the city, and stoned him to death.\n14 And they sent to Jezabel, saying: Naboth is stoned, and is dead.\n15 And it came to pass when Jezabel heard that Naboth was stoned, and dead, that she said to Achab: Arise and take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite, who would not agree with thee, and give it thee for money: for Naboth is not alive, but dead.\n16 And when Achab heard this, to wit, that Naboth was dead, he arose, and went down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite, to take possession of it.\n17 And the word of the Lord came to Elias the Thesbite, saying:\n18 Arise, and go down to meet Achab king of Israel, who is in Samaria: behold he is going down to the vineyard of Naboth, to take possession of it:\n19 And thou shalt speak to him, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Thou hast slain, moreover also thou hast taken possession.

And he rebelled against the king of the Assyrians, and served him not.\n8 He smote the Philistines as far as Gaza, and all their borders, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.\n9 In the fourth year of king Ezechias, which was the seventh year of Osee the son of Ela king of Israel, Salmanasar king of the Assyrians came up to Samaria, and besieged it,\n10 And took it. For after three years, in the sixth year of Ezechias, that is, in the ninth year of Osee king of Israel, Samaria was taken:\n11 And the king of the Assyrians carried away Israel into Assyria, and placed them in Hale, and in Habor by the rivers of Gozan in the cities of the Medes:\n12 Because they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord their God, but transgressed his covenant: all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded, they would not hear nor do.\n13 In the fourteenth year of king Ezechias, Sennacherib king of the Assyrians came up against the fenced cities of Juda: and took them.\n14 Then Ezechias king of Juda sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians to Lachis, saying: I have offended, depart from me: and all that thou shalt put upon me, I will bear. And the king of the Assyrians put a tax upon Ezechias king of Juda, of three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold.\n15 And Ezechias gave all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the king's treasures.\n16 At that time Ezechias broke the doors of the temple of the Lord, and the plates of gold which he had fastened on them, and gave them to the king of the Assyrians.\n17 And the king of the Assyrians sent Tharthan and Rabsaris, and Rabsaces from Lachis to king Ezechias with a strong army to Jerusalem: and they went up and came to Jerusalem, and they stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the way of the fuller's field.\n18 And they called for the king: and there went out to them Eliacim the son of Helcias who was over the house, and Sobna the scribe, and Joahe the son of Asaph the recorder.\n19 And Rabsaces said to them: Speak to Ezechias: Thus saith the great king, the king of the Assyrians: What is this confidence, wherein thou trustest?\n20 Perhaps thou hast taken counsel, to prepare thyself for battle. On whom dost thou trust, that thou darest to rebel?\n21 Dost thou trust in Egypt a staff of a broken reed, upon which if a man lean, it will break and go into his hand, and pierce it? so is Pharao king of Egypt, to all that trust in him.\n22 But if you say to me: We trust in the Lord our God: is it not he, whose high places and altars Ezechias hath taken away: and hath commanded Juda and Jerusalem: You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?\n23 Now therefore come over to my master the king of the Assyrians, and I will give you two thousand horses, and see whether you be able to have riders for them.\n24 And how can you stand against one lord of the least of my master's servants? Dost thou trust in Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?\n25 Is it without the will of the Lord that I am come up to this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me: Go up to this land and destroy it.\n26 Then Eliacim the son of Helcias, and Sobna, and Joahe said to Rabsaces: We pray thee speak to us thy servants in Syriac: for we understand that tongue: and speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the hearing of the people that are upon the wall.\n27 And Rabsaces answered them, saying: Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee, to speak these words, and not rather to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their urine with you?\n28 Then Rabsaces stood, and cried out with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said: Hear the words of the great king, the king of the Assyrians.\n29 Thus saith the king: Let not Ezechias deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of my hand.\n30 Neither let him make you trust in the Lord, saying: The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of the Assyrians.\n31 Do not hearken to Ezechias.

And David also girded on his sword: and there followed David about four hundred men: and two hundred remained with the baggage.\n14 But one of the servants told Abigail the wife of Nabal, saying: Behold David sent messengers out of the wilderness, to salute our master: and he rejected them.\n15 These men were very good to us, and gave us no trouble: neither did we ever lose any thing all the time that we conversed with them in the desert.\n16 They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.\n17 Wherefore consider, and think what thou hast to do: for evil is determined against thy husband, and against thy house, and he is a son of Belial, so that no man can speak to him.\n18 Then Abigail made haste and took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of dry figs, and laid them upon asses:\n19 And she said to her servants: Go before me: behold I will follow after you: but she told not her husband Nabal.\n20 And when she had gotten upon an ass, and was coming down to the foot of the mountain, David and his men came down over against her, and she met them.\n21 And David said: Truly in vain have I kept all that belonged to this man in the wilderness, and nothing was lost of all that pertained unto him: and he hath returned me evil for good.\n22 May God do so and so, and add more to the foes of David, if I leave of all that belong to him till the morning, any that pisseth against the wall.\n23 And when Abigail saw David she made haste and lighted off the ass, and fell before David, on her face, and adored upon the ground.\n24 And she fell at his feet, and said: Upon me let this iniquity be, my lord: let thy handmaid speak, I beseech thee, in thy ears: and hear the words of thy servant.\n25 Let not my lord the king, I pray, regard this naughty man Nabal: for according to his name, he is a fool, and folly is with him: but I thy handmaid did not see thy servants, my lord, whom thou sentest.\n26 Now therefore, my lord, the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, who hath withholden thee from coming to blood, and hath saved thy hand to thee: and now let thy enemies be as Nabal, and all they that seek evil to my lord.\n27 Wherefore receive this blessing, which thy handmaid hath brought to thee, my lord: and give it to the young men that follow thee, my lord.\n28 Forgive the iniquity of thy handmaid: for the Lord will surely make for my lord a faithful house, because thou, my lord, fightest the battles of the Lord: let not evil therefore be found in thee all the days of thy life.\n29 For if a man at any time shall rise, and persecute thee, and seek thy life, the soul of my lord shall be kept, as in the bundle of the living, with the Lord thy God: but the souls of thy enemies shall be whirled, as with the violence and whirling of a sling.\n30 And when the Lord shall have done to thee, my lord, all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have made thee prince over Israel,\n31 This shall not be an occasion of grief to thee, and a scruple of heart to my lord, that thou hast shed innocent blood, or hast revenged thyself: and when the Lord shall have done well by my lord, thou shalt remember thy handmaid.\n32 And David said to Abigail: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me, and blessed be thy speech:\n33 And blessed be thou, who hast kept me to day, from coming to blood, and revenging me with my own hand.\n34 Otherwise as the Lord liveth the God of Israel, who hath withholden me from doing thee any evil: if thou hadst not quickly come to meet me, there had not been left to Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.\n35 And David received at her hand all that she had brought him, and said to her: Go in peace into thy house, behold I have heard thy voice, and have honoured thy face.\n36 And Abigail came to Nabal: and behold he had a feast in his house, like the feast of a king, and Nabal's heart was merry: for he was very drunk: and she told him nothing less or more until morning.\n37 But early in the morning when Nabal had digested his wine, his wife told him these words, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.\n38 And after ten days had passed, the Lord struck Nabal, and he died.\n39 And when David had heard that Nabal was dead, he said: Blessed be the Lord, who hath judged the cause of my reproach at the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil, and the Lord hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his head. Then David sent and treated with Abigail, that he might take her to himself for a wife.\n40 And David's servants came to Abigail to Carmel, and spoke to her, saying: David hath sent us to thee, to take thee to himself for a wife.\n41 And she arose and bowed herself down with her face to the earth, and said: Behold, let thy servant be a handmaid, to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.\n42 And Abigail arose, and made haste, and got upon an ass, and five damsels went with her, her waiting maids, and she followed the messengers of David, and became his wife.\n43 Moreover David took also Achinoam of Jezrahel: and they were both of them his wives.\n44 But Saul gave Michol his daughter, David's wife, to Phalti, the son of Lais, who was of Gallium.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does it say in 2 Chronicles chapter 25 verse 9?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The Old Testament\n2 Chronicles 25:9 (Douay Rheims)\n\"And Amasias said to the man of God: What will then become of the hundred talents which I have given to the soldiers of Israeli and the man of God answered him: The Lord is rich enough to be able to give thee much more than this.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Show me Amos 1:4", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Amos 1:4 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And I will send a fire into the house of Azael, and it shall devour the houses of Benadad.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have opened your sepulchres, and shall have brought you out of your graves, O my people:\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That one's from Ezekiel, chapter 37.\n\nHere's the chapter it's part of:\nEzekiel Chapter 37\n1 The hand of the Lord was upon me, and brought me forth in the spirit of the Lord: and set me down in the midst of a plain that was full of bones.\n2 And he led me about through them on every side: now they were very many upon the face of the plain, and they were exceeding dry.\n3 And he said to me: Son of man, dost thou think these bones shall live?

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

Likewise he that is called, being free, is the bondman of Christ.\n23 You are bought with a price; be not made the bondslaves of men.\n24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he was called, therein abide with God.\n25 Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord; but I give counsel, as having obtained mercy of the Lord, to be faithful.\n26 I think therefore that this is good for the present necessity, that it is good for a man so to be.\n27 Art thou bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.\n28 But if thou take a wife, thou hast not sinned. And if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned: nevertheless, such shall have tribulation of the flesh. But I spare you.\n29 This therefore I say, brethren; the time is short; it remaineth, that they also who have wives, be as if they had none;\n30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as if they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;\n31 And they that use this world, as if they used it not: for the fashion of this world passeth away.\n32 But I would have you to be without solicitude. He that is without a wife, is solicitous for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please God.\n33 But he that is with a wife, is solicitous for the things of the world, how he may please his wife: and he is divided.\n34 And the unmarried woman and the virgin thinketh on the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she that is married thinketh on the things of the world, how she may please her husband.\n35 And this I speak for your profit: not to cast a snare upon you; but for that which is decent, and which may give you power to attend upon the Lord, without impediment.\n36 But if any man think that he seemeth dishonoured, with regard to his virgin, for that she is above the age, and it must so be: let him do what he will; he sinneth not, if she marry.\n37 For he that hath determined being steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but having power of his own will; and hath judged this in his heart, to keep his virgin, doth well.\n38 Therefore, both he that giveth his virgin in marriage, doth well; and he that giveth her not, doth better.\n39 A woman is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband die, she is at liberty: let her marry to whom she will; only in the Lord.\n40 But more blessed shall she be, if she so remain, according to my counsel; and I think that I also have the spirit of God.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"And there are three that give testimony on earth: the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three are one.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book 1 John, chapter 5.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\n1 John Chapter 5\n1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ, is born of God.

We have four men, who have a vow on them.\n24 Take these, and sanctify thyself with them: and bestow on them, that they may shave their heads: and all will know that the things which they have heard of thee, are false; but that thou thyself also walkest keeping the law.\n25 But as touching the Gentiles that believe, we have written, decreeing that they should only refrain themselves from that which has been offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangles, and from fornication.\n26 Then Paul took the men, and the next day being purified with them, entered into the temple, giving notice of the accomplishment of the days of purification, until an oblation should be offered for every one of them.\n27 But when the seven days were drawing to an end, those Jews that were of Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid hands upon him, crying out:\n28 Men of Israel, help: This is the man that teacheth all men everywhere against the people, and the law, and this place; and moreover hath brought in Gentiles into the temple, and hath violated this holy place.\n29 (For they had seen Trophimus the Ephesian in the city with him, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)\n30 And the whole city was in an uproar: and the people ran together.

And when he could not know the certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to be carried into the castle.\n35 And when he was come to the stairs, it fell out that he was carried by the soldiers, because of the violence of the people.\n36 For the multitude of the people followed after, crying: Away with him.\n37 And as Paul was about to be brought into the castle, he saith to the tribune: May I speak something to thee?

Who said: In John's baptism.\n4 Then Paul said: John baptized the people with the baptism of penance, saying: That they should believe in him who was to come after him, that is to say, in Jesus.\n5 Having heard these things, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.\n6 And when Paul had imposed his hands on them, the Holy Ghost came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.\n7 And all the men were about twelve.\n8 And entering into the synagogue, he spoke boldly for the space of three months, disputing and exhorting concerning the kingdom of God.\n9 But when some were hardened, and believed not, speaking evil of the way of the Lord, before the multitude, departing from them, he separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.\n10 And this continued for the space of two years, so that all they who dwelt in Asia, heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Gentiles.\n11 And God wrought by the hand of Paul more than common miracles.\n12 So that even there were brought from his body to the sick, handkerchiefs and aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the wicked spirits went out of them.\n13 Now some also of the Jewish exorcists who went about, attempted to invoke over them that had evil spirits, the name of the Lord Jesus, saying: I conjure you by Jesus, whom Paul preacheth.\n14 And there were certain men, seven sons of Sceva, a Jew, a chief priest, that did this.\n15 But the wicked spirit, answering, said to them: Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?\n16 And the man in whom the wicked spirit was, leaping upon them, and mastering them both, prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.\n17 And this became known to all the Jews and the Gentiles that dwelt at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.\n18 And many of them that believed, came confessing and declaring their deeds.\n19 And many of them who had followed curious arts, brought together their books, and burnt them before all; and counting the price of them, they found the money to be fifty thousand pieces of silver.\n20 So mightily grew the word of God, and was confirmed.\n21 And when these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying: After I have been there, I must see Rome also.\n22 And sending into Macedonia two of them that ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself remained for a time in Asia.\n23 Now at that time there arose no small disturbance about the way of the Lord.\n24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver temples for Diana, brought no small gain to the craftsmen;\n25 Whom he calling together, with the workmen of like occupation, said: Sirs, you know that our gain is by this trade;\n26 And you see and hear, that this Paul by persuasion hath drawn away a great multitude, not only of Ephesus, but almost of all Asia, saying: They are not gods which are made by hands.\n27 So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought, but also the temple of great Diana shall be reputed for nothing; yea, and her majesty shall begin to be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth.\n28 Having heard these things, they were full of anger, and cried out, saying: Great is Diana of the Ephesians.\n29 And the whole city was filled with confusion; and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's companions, they rushed with one accord into the theatre.\n30 And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.\n31 And some also of the rulers of Asia, who were his friends, sent unto him, desiring that he would not venture himself into the theatre.\n32 Now some cried one thing, some another. For the assembly was confused, and the greater part knew not for what cause they were come together.\n33 And they drew forth Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews thrusting him forward. And Alexander beckoning with his hand for silence, would have given the people satisfaction.\n34 But as soon as they perceived him to be a Jew, all with one voice, for the space of about two hours, cried out: Great is Diana of the Ephesians.\n35 And when the town clerk had appeased the multitudes, he said: Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great Diana, and of Jupiter's offspring.\n36 For as much therefore as these things cannot be contradicted, you ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.\n37 For you have brought hither these men, who are neither guilty of sacrilege, nor of blasphemy against your goddess.\n38 But if Demetrius and the craftsmen that are with him, have a matter against any man, the courts of justice are open, and there are proconsuls: let them accuse one another.\n39 And if you inquire after any other matter, it may be decided in a lawful assembly.\n40 For we are even in danger to be called in question for this day's uproar, there being no man guilty (of whom we may give account) of this concourse.

And the flame of the fire slew those men that had cast in Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago.\n23 But these three men, that is, Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, fell down bound in the midst of the furnace of burning fire.\n24 And they walked in the midst of the flame, praising God and blessing the Lord.\n25 Then Azarias standing up prayed in this manner, and opening his mouth in the midst of the fire, he said:\n26 Blessed art thou, O Lord, the God of our fathers, and thy name is worthy of praise, and glorious for ever:\n27 For thou art just in all that thou hast done to us, and all thy works are true, and thy ways right, and all thy judgments true.\n28 For thou hast executed true judgments in all the things that thou hast brought upon us, and upon Jerusalem the holy city of our fathers: for according to truth and judgment, thou hast brought all these things upon us for our sins.\n29 For we have sinned, and committed iniquity, departing from thee: and we have trespassed in all things:\n30 And we have not hearkened to thy commandments, nor have we observed nor done as thou hadst commanded us, that it might go well with us.\n31 Wherefore all that thou hast brought upon us, and every thing that thou hast done to us, thou hast done in true judgment:\n32 And thou hast delivered us into the hands of our enemies that are unjust, and most wicked, and prevaricators, and to a king unjust, and most wicked beyond all that are upon the earth.\n33 And now we cannot open our mouths: we are become a shame and reproach to thy servants, and to them that worship thee.\n34 Deliver us not up for ever, we beseech thee, for thy name's sake, and abolish not thy covenant.\n35 And take not away thy mercy from us for the sake of Abraham thy beloved, and Isaac thy servant, and Israel thy holy one:\n36 To whom thou hast spoken, promising that thou wouldst multiply their seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is on the sea shore.\n37 For we, O Lord, are diminished more than any nation, and are brought low in all the earth this day for our sins.\n38 Neither is there at this time prince, or leader, or prophet, or holocaust, or sacrifice, or oblation, or incense, or place of firstfruits before thee,\n39 That we may find thy mercy: nevertheless in a contrite heart and humble spirit let us be accepted.\n40 As in holocausts of rams, and bullocks, and as in thousands of fat lambs: so let our sacrifice be made in thy sight this day, that it may please thee: for there is no confusion to them that trust in thee.\n41 And now we follow thee with all our heart, and we fear thee, and seek thy face.\n42 Put us not to confusion, but deal. with us according to thy meekness, and according to the multitude of thy mercies.\n43 And deliver us according to thy wonderful works, and give glory to thy name, O Lord:\n44 And let all them be confounded that shew evils to thy servants, let them be confounded in all thy might, and let their strength be broken.\n45 And let them know that thou art the Lord, the only God, and glorious over all the world.\n46 Now the king's servants that had cast them in, ceased not to heat the furnace with brimstone, and tow, and pitch, and dry sticks,\n47 And the flame mounted up above the furnace nine and forty cubits:\n48 And it broke forth, and burnt such of the Chaldeans as it found near the furnace.\n49 But the angel of the Lord went down with Azarias and his companions into the furnace: and he drove the flame of the fire out of the furnace,\n50 And made the midst of the furnace like the blowing of a wind bringing dew, and the fire touched them not at all, nor troubled them, nor did them any harm.\n51 Then these three as with one mouth praised, and glorified, and blessed God in the furnace, saying:\n52 Blessed art thou, O Lord the God of our fathers: and worthy to be praised, and glorified, and exalted above all for ever: and blessed is the holy name of thy glory: and worthy to be praised, and exalted above all in all ages.\n53 Blessed art thou in the holy temple of thy glory: and exceedingly to be praised, and exceeding glorious for ever.\n54 Blessed art thou on the throne of thy kingdom, and exceedingly to be praised, and exalted above all for ever.\n55 Blessed art thou, that beholdest the depths, and sittest upon the cherubims: and worthy to be praised and exalted above all for ever.\n56 Blessed art thou in the firmament of heaven: and worthy of praise, and glorious for ever.\n57 All ye works of the Lord, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n58 O ye angels of the Lord, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n59 O ye heavens, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n60 O all ye waters that are above the heavens, bless the Lord;

They answered the king, and said: True, O king.\n92 He answered, and said: Behold I see four men loose, and walking in the midst of the fire, and there is no hurt in them, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.\n93 Then Nabuchodonosor came to the door of the burning fiery furnace, and said: Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, ye servants of the most high God, go ye forth, and come. And immediately Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago went out from the midst of the fire.\n94 And the nobles, and the magistrates, and the judges, and the great men of the king being gathered together, considered these men, that the fire had no power on their bodies, and that not a hair of their head had been singed, nor their garments altered, nor the smell of the fire had passed on them.\n95 Then Nabuchodonosor breaking forth, said: Blessed be the God of them, to wit, of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that believed in him: and they changed the king's word, and delivered up their bodies that they might not serve, nor adore any god, except their own God.\n96 By me therefore this decree is made, that every people, tribe, and tongue, which shall speak blasphemy against the God of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, shall be destroyed, and their houses laid waste: for there is no other God that can save in this manner.\n97 Then the king promoted Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, in the province of Babylon.\n98 Nabuchodonosor the king, to all peoples, nations, and tongues, that dwell in all the earth, peace be multiplied unto you.\n99 The most high God hath wrought signs and wonders toward me.

And they said: We have no more than five loaves and two fishes; unless perhaps we should go and buy food for all this multitude.\n14 Now there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples: Make them sit down by fifties in a company.\n15 And they did so; and made them all sit down.\n16 And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed them; and he broke, and distributed to his disciples, to set before the multitude.\n17 And they did all eat, and were filled. And there were taken up of fragments that remained to them, twelve baskets.\n18 And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples also were with him: and he asked them, saying: Whom do the people say that I am?\n19 But they answered, and said: John the Baptist; but some say Elias; and others say that one of the former prophets is risen again.\n20 And he said to them: But whom do you say that I am? Simon Peter answering, said: The Christ of God.\n21 But he strictly charging them, commanded they should tell this to no man.\n22 Saying: The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the ancients and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day rise again.\n23 And he said to all: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.\n24 For whosoever will save his life, shall lose it; for he that shall lose his life for my sake, shall save it.\n25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, and cast away himself?\n26 For he that shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him the Son of man shall be ashamed, when he shall come in his majesty, and that of his Father, and of the holy angels.\n27 But I tell you of a truth: There are some standing here that shall not taste death, till they see the kingdom of God.\n28 And it came to pass about eight days after these words, that he took Peter, and James, and John, and went up into a mountain to pray.\n29 And whilst he prayed, the shape of his countenance was altered, and his raiment became white and glittering.\n30 And behold two men were talking with him. And they were Moses and Elias,\n31 Appearing in majesty. And they spoke of his decease that he should accomplish in Jerusalem.\n32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep. And waking, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.\n33 And it came to pass, that as they were departing from him, Peter saith to Jesus: Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias; not knowing what he said.\n34 And as he spoke these things, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them; and they were afraid, when they entered into the cloud.\n35 And a voice came out of the cloud, saying: This is my beloved Son; hear him.\n36 And whilst the voice was uttered, Jesus was found alone. And they held their peace, and told no man in those days any of these things which they had seen.\n37 And it came to pass the day following, when they came down from the mountain, there met him a great multitude.\n38 And behold a man among the crowd cried out, saying: Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son, because he is my only one.\n39 And lo, a spirit seizeth him, and he suddenly crieth out, and he throweth him down and teareth him, so that he foameth; and bruising him, he hardly departeth from him.\n40 And I desired thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not.\n41 And Jesus answering, said: O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring hither thy son.\n42 And as he was coming to him, the devil threw him down, and tore him.\n43 And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and cured the boy, and restored him to his father.\n44 And all were astonished at the mighty power of God. But while all wondered at all the things he did, he said to his disciples: Lay you up in your hearts these words, for it shall come to pass, that the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.\n45 But they understood not this word; and it was hid from them, so that they perceived it not. And they were afraid to ask him concerning this word.\n46 And there entered a thought into them, which of them should be greater.\n47 But Jesus seeing the thoughts of their heart, took a child and set him by him,\n48 And said to them: Whosoever shall receive this child in my name, receiveth me; and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth him that sent me. For he that is the lesser among you all, he is the greater.\n49 And John, answering, said: Master, we saw a certain man casting out devils in thy name, and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us.\n50 And Jesus said to him: Forbid him not; for he that is not against you, is for you.\n51 And it came to pass, when the days of his assumption were accomplishing, that he steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem.\n52 And he sent messengers before his face; and going, they entered into a city of the Samaritans, to prepare for him.\n53 And they received him not, because his face was of one going to Jerusalem.\n54 And when his disciples James and John had seen this, they said: Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them?\n55 And turning, he rebuked them, saying: You know not of what spirit you are.\n56 The Son of man came not to destroy souls, but to save. And they went into another town.\n57 And it came to pass, as they walked in the way, that a certain man said to him: I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.\n58 Jesus said to him: The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.\n59 But he said to another: Follow me. And he said: Lord, suffer me first to go, and to bury my father.\n60 And Jesus said to him: Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou, and preach the kingdom of God.\n61 And another said: I will follow thee, Lord; but let me first take my leave of them that are at my house.\n62 Jesus said to him: No man putting his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "From which book and what chapter does \"But he denied again.

And they murmured against her.\n6 But Jesus said: Let her alone, why do you molest her? She hath wrought a good work upon me.\n7 For the poor you have always with you: and whensoever you will, you may do them good: but me you have not always.\n8 She hath done what she could: she is come beforehand to anoint my body for burial.\n9 Amen, I say to you, wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, that also which she hath done, shall be told for a memorial of her.\n10 And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests, to betray him to them.\n11 Who hearing it were glad; and they promised him they would give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.\n12 Now on the first day of the unleavened bread, when they sacrificed the pasch, the disciples say to him: Whither wilt thou that we go, and prepare for thee to eat the pasch?\n13 And he sendeth two of his disciples, and saith to them: Go ye into the city; and there shall meet you a man carrying a pitcher of water, follow him;\n14 And whithersoever he shall go in, say to the master of the house, The master saith, Where is my refectory, where I may eat the pasch with my disciples?\n15 And he will shew you a large dining room furnished; and there prepare ye for us.\n16 And his disciples went their way, and came into the city; and they found as he had told them, and they prepared the pasch.\n17 And when evening was come, he cometh with the twelve.\n18 And when they were at table and eating, Jesus saith: Amen I say to you, one of you that eateth with me shall betray me.\n19 But they began to be sorrowful, and to say to him one by one: Is it I?\n20 Who saith to them: One of the twelve, who dippeth with me his hand in the dish.\n21 And the Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man shall be betrayed. It were better for him, if that man had not been born.\n22 And whilst they were eating, Jesus took bread; and blessing, broke, and gave to them, and said: Take ye.

But that the scriptures may be fulfilled.\n50 Then his disciples leaving him, all fled away.\n51 And a certain young man followed him, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body; and they laid hold on him.\n52 But he, casting off the linen cloth, fled from them naked.\n53 And they brought Jesus to the high priest; and all the priests and the scribes and the ancients assembled together.\n54 And Peter followed him from afar off, even into the court of the high priest; and he sat with the servants at the fire, and warmed himself.\n55 And the chief priests and all the council sought for evidence against Jesus, that they might put him to death, and found none.\n56 For many bore false witness against him, and their evidences were not agreeing.\n57 And some rising up, bore false witness against him, saying:\n58 We heard him say, I will destroy this temple made with hands, and within three days I will build another not made with hands.\n59 And their witness did not agree.\n60 And the high priest rising up in the midst, asked Jesus, saying: Answerest thou nothing to the things that are laid to thy charge by these men?\n61 But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said to him: Art thou the Christ the Son of the blessed God?\n62 And Jesus said to him: I am. And you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of the power of God, and coming with the clouds of heaven.\n63 Then the high priest rending his garments, saith: What need we any further witnesses?\n64 You have heard the blasphemy. What think you?

but the bearers thereof desired it might not be bestowed on the sacrifices, because it was not necessary, but might be deputed for other charges.\n20 So the money was appointed by him that sent it to the sacrifice of Hercules: but because of them that carried it was employed for the making of galleys.\n21 Now when Apollonius the son of Mnestheus was sent into Egypt to treat with the nobles of king Philometor, and Antiochus understood that he was wholly excluded from the affairs of the kingdom, consulting his own interest, he departed thence and came to Joppe, and from thence to Jerusalem:\n22 Where he was received in a, magnificent manner by Jason, and the city, and came in with torch lights, and with praises, and from thence he returned with his army into Phenicia.\n23 Three years afterwards Jason sent Menelaus, brother of the aforesaid Simon, to carry money to the king, and to bring answers from him concerning certain necessary affairs.\n24 But he being recommended to the king, when he had magnified the appearance of his power, got the high priesthood for himself, by offering more than Jason by three hundred talents of silver.\n25 So having received the king's mandate, he returned bringing nothing worthy of the high priesthood: but having the mind of a cruel tyrant, and the rage of a savage beast.\n26 Then Jason, who had undermined his own brother, being himself undermined, was driven out a fugitive into the country of the Ammonites.\n27 So Menelaus got the principality: but as for the money he had promised to the king he took no care, when Sostratus the governor of the castle called for it.\n28 For to him appertained the gathering of the taxes: wherefore they were both called before the king.\n29 And Menelaus was removed from the priesthood, Lysimachus his brother succeeding: and Sostratus was made governor of the Cyprians.\n30 When these things were in doing, it fell out that they of Tharsus and Mallos raised a sedition, because they were given for a gift to Antiochis, the king's concubine.\n31 The king therefore went in all haste to appease them, leaving Andronicus, one of his nobles, for his deputy.\n32 Then Menelaus supposing that he had found a convenient time, having stolen certain vessels of gold out of the temple, gave them to Andronicus, and others he had sold at Tyre, and in the neighbouring cities.\n33 Which when Onias understood most certainly, he reproved him, keeping himself in a safe place at Antioch beside Daphne.\n34 Whereupon Menelaus coming to Andronicus, desired him to kill Onias. And he went to Onias, and gave him his right hand with an oath, and (though he were suspected by him) persuaded him to come forth out of the sanctuary, and immediately slew him, without any regard to justice.\n35 For which cause not only the Jews, but also the other nations, conceived indignation, and were much grieved for the unjust murder of so great a man.\n36 And when the king was come back from the places of Cilicia, the Jews that were at Antioch, and also the Greeks went to him: complaining of the unjust murder of Onias.\n37 Antiochus therefore was grieved in his mind for Onias, and being moved to pity, shed tears, remembering the sobriety and modesty of the deceased.\n38 And being inflamed to anger, he commanded Andronicus to be stripped of his purple, and to be led about through all the city: and that in the same place wherein he had committed the impiety against Onias, the sacrilegious wretch should be put to death, the Lord repaying him his deserved punishment.\n39 Now when many sacrileges had been committed by Lysimachus in the temple by the counsel of Menelaus, and the rumour of it was spread abroad, the multitude gathered themselves together against Lysimachus, a great quantity of gold being already carried away.\n40 Wherefore the multitude making an insurrection, and their minds being filled with anger, Lysimachus armed about three thousand men, and began to use violence, one Tyrannus being captain, a man far gone both in age, and in madness.\n41 But when they perceived the attempt of Lysimachus, some caught up stones, some strong clubs: and some threw ashes upon Lysimachus,\n42 And many of them were wounded, and some struck down to the ground, but all were put to flight: and as for the sacrilegious fellow himself, they slew him beside the treasury.\n43 Now concerning these matters, an accusation was laid against Menelaus.\n44 And when the king was come to Tyre, three men were sent from the ancients to plead the cause before him.\n45 But Menelaus being convicted, promised Ptolemee to give him much money to persuade the king to favour him.\n46 So Ptolemee went to the king in a certain court where he was, as it were to cool himself, and brought him to be of another mind:\n47 So Menelaus who was guilty of all the evil, was acquitted by him of the accusations: and those poor men, who, if they had pleaded their cause even before Scythians, should have been judged innocent, were condemned to death.\n48 Thus they that prosecuted the cause for the city, and for the people, and the sacred vessels, did soon suffer unjust punishment.\n49 Wherefore even the Tyrians being moved with indignation, were liberal towards their burial.\n50 And so through the covetousness of them that were in power, Menelaus continued in authority, increasing in malice to the betraying of the citizens.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and chapter does \"And I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, and it shall devour

you came to this place: sand Sehon king of Hesebon, and Og king of Basan, came out against us to fight.

Phenenna had children: but Anna had no children.\n3 And this man went up out of his city upon the appointed days, to adore and to offer sacrifice to the Lord of hosts in Silo. And the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were there priests of the Lord.\n4 Now the day came, and Elcana offered sacrifice, and gave to Phenenna his wife, and to all her sons and daughters, portions:\n5 But to Anna he gave one portion with sorrow, because he loved Anna. And the Lord had shut up her womb.\n6 Her rival also afflicted her, and troubled her exceedingly, insomuch that she upbraided her, that the Lord had shut up her womb:\n7 And thus she did every year, when the time returned that they went up to the temple of the Lord: and thus she provoked her: but Anna wept, and did not eat.\n8 Then Elcana her husband said to her: Anna, why weepest thou? and why dost thou not eat? And why dost thou afflict thy heart? Am not I better to thee than ten children?\n9 So Anna arose after she had eaten and drunk in Silo: And Heli the priest sitting upon a stool, before the door of the temple of the Lord:\n10 As Anna had her heart full of grief, she prayed to the Lord, shedding many tears,\n11 And she made a vow, saying: O Lord, of hosts, if thou wilt look down on the affliction of thy servant, and wilt be mindful of me, and not forget thy handmaid, and wilt give to thy servant a man child: I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head.\n12 And it came to pass, as she multiplied prayers before the Lord, that Heli observed her mouth.\n13 Now Anna spoke in her heart, and only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard at all. Heli therefore thought her to be drunk,\n14 And said to her: How long wilt thou, be drunk? digest a little the wine, of which thou hast taken too much.\n15 Anna answering, said: Not so, my lord: for I am an exceeding unhappy woman, and have drunk neither wine nor any strong drink, but I have poured out my soul before the Lord.\n16 Count not thy handmaid for one of the daughters of Belial: for out of the abundance of my sorrow and grief have I spoken till now.\n17 Then Heli said to her: Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition, which thou hast asked of him.\n18 And she said: Would to God thy handmaid may find grace in thy eyes. So the woman went on her way, and ate, and her countenance was no more changed.\n19 And they rose in the morning, and worshipped before the Lord: and they returned, and came into their house at Ramatha. And Elcana knew Anna his wife: and the Lord remembered her.\n20 And it came to pass when the time was come about, Anna conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel: because she had asked him of the Lord.\n21 And Elcana her husband went up, and all his house, to offer to the Lord the solemn sacrifice, and his vow.\n22 But Anna went not up: for she said to her husband: I will not go till the child be weaned, and till I may carry him, that he may appear before the Lord, and may abide always there.\n23 And Elcana her husband said to her: Do what seemeth good to thee, and stay till thou wean him: and I pray that the Lord may fulfill his word. So the woman stayed at home, and gave her son suck, till she weaned him.\n24 And after she had weaned him, she carried him with her, with three calves, and three bushels of flour, and a bottle of wine, and she brought him to the house of the Lord in Silo. Now the child was as yet very young:\n25 And they immolated a calf, and offered the child to Heli.\n26 And Anna said: I beseech thee, my lord, as thy soul liveth, my lord: I am that woman who stood before thee here praying to the Lord.\n27 For this child did I pray, and the Lord hath granted me my petition, which I asked of him.\n28 Therefore I also have lent him to the Lord all the days of his life, he shall be lent to the Lord.

He that loveth his wife, loveth himself.\n29 For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, as also Christ doth the church:\n30 Because we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.\n31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they shall be two in one flesh.\n32 This is a great sacrament; but I speak in Christ and in the church.\n33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular love his wife as himself: and let the wife fear her husband.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book, chapter, and verse for \"Yea, if I shall say to the just that he shall surely live, and he, trusting in his justice, commit iniquity: all his justices shall be forgotten, and in his iniquity, which he hath committed, in the same shall he die.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The passage \"Yea, if I shall say to the just that he shall surely live, and he, trusting in his justice, commit iniquity: all his justices shall be forgotten, and in his iniquity, which he hath committed, in the same shall he die.\" comes from Ezekiel 33:13 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"And I brought you into the land of Carmel, to eat the fruit thereof, and the best things thereof: and when ye entered in, you defiled my land, and made my inheritance an abomination.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book Jeremiah, chapter 2.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\nJeremiah Chapter 2\n1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:\n2 Go, and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying: Thus saith the Lord: I have remembered thee, pitying thy soul, pitying thy youth, and the love of thy espousals, when thou followedst me in the desert, in a land that is not sown.\n3 Israel is holy to the Lord, the first fruits of his increase: all they that devour him offend: evils shall come upon them, saith the Lord.\n4 Hear ye the word of the Lord, O house of Jacob, and all ye families of the house of Israel.\n5 Thus saith the Lord: What iniquity have your fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain?\n6 And they have not said: Where is the Lord, that made us come up out of the land of Egypt? that led us through the desert, through a land uninhabited and unpassable, through a land of drought, and the image of death, through a land wherein no man walked, nor any man dwelt?\n7 And I brought you into the land of Carmel, to eat the fruit thereof, and the best things thereof: and when ye entered in, you defiled my land, and made my inheritance an abomination.\n8 The priests did not say: Where is the Lord? and they that held the law knew me not, and the pastors transgressed against me: and the prophets prophesied in Baal, and followed idols.\n9 Therefore will I yet contend in judgement with you, saith the Lord, and I will plead with your children.\n10 Pass over to the isles of Cethim, and see: and send into Cedar, and consider diligently: and see if there hath been done any thing like this.\n11 If a nation hath changed their gods, and indeed they are not gods: but my people have changed their glory into an idol.\n12 Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and ye gates thereof, be very desolate, saith the Lord.\n13 For my people have done two evils.

Now as she was weeping, she stooped down, and looked into the sepulchre,\n12 And she saw two angels in white, sitting, one at the head, and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had been laid.\n13 They say to her: Woman, why weepest thou? She saith to them: Because they have taken away my Lord; and I know not where they have laid him.\n14 When she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing; and she knew not that it was Jesus.\n15 Jesus saith to her: Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, thinking it was the gardener, saith to him: Sir, if thou hast taken him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.\n16 Jesus saith to her: Mary. She turning, saith to him: Rabboni (which is to say, Master).\n17 Jesus saith to her: Do not touch me, for I am not yet ascended to my Father.

times even to the end of his life, that they should praise the holy name of the Lord, and magnify the holiness of God in the morning.\n13 The Lord took away his sins, and exalted his horn for ever: and he gave him a covenant of the kingdom, and a throne of glory in Israel.\n14 After him arose up a wise son, and for his sake he cast down all the power of the enemies.\n15 Solomon reigned in days of peace, and God brought all his enemies under him, that he might build a house in his name, and prepare a sanctuary for ever: O how wise wast thou in thy youth!\n16 And thou wast filled as a river with wisdom, and thy soul covered the earth.\n17 And thou didst multiply riddles in parables: thy name went abroad to the islands far off, and thou wast beloved in thy peace.\n18 The countries wondered at thee for thy canticles, and proverbs, and parables, and interpretations,\n19 And at the name of the Lord God, whose surname is, God of Israel.\n20 Thou didst gather gold as copper, and didst multiply silver as lead,\n21 And thou didst bow thyself to women: and by thy body thou wast brought under subjection.\n22 Thou hast stained thy glory, and defiled thy seed so as to bring wrath upon thy children, and to have thy folly kindled,\n23 That thou shouldst make the kingdom to be divided, and out of Ephraim a rebellious kingdom to rule.\n24 But God will not leave off his mercy, and he will not destroy, nor abolish his own works, neither will he out up by the roots the offspring of his elect: and he will not utterly take away the seed of him that loveth the Lord.\n25 Wherefore he gave a remnant to Jacob, and to David of the same stock.\n26 And Solomon had an end with his fathers.\n27 And he left behind him of his seed, the folly of the nation,\n28 Even Roboam that had little wisdom, who turned away the people through his counsel:\n29 And Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who caused Israel to sin, and shewed Ephraim the way of sin, and their sins were multiplied exceedingly.\n30 They removed them far away from their land.\n31 And they sought out all iniquities, till vengeance came upon them, and put an end to all their sins.\n", "role": "assistant" } ]

But they said: What is that to us? look thou to it.\n5 And casting down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed: and went and hanged himself with an halter.\n6 But the chief priests having taken the pieces of silver, said: It is not lawful to put them into the corbona, because it is the price of blood.\n7 And after they had consulted together, they bought with them the potter's field, to be a burying place for strangers.\n8 For this cause the field was called Haceldama, that is, The field of blood, even to this day.\n9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremias the prophet, saying: And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was prized, whom they prized of the children of Israel.\n10 And they gave them unto the potter's field, as the Lord appointed to me.\n11 And Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, saying: Art thou the king of the Jews? Jesus saith to him: Thou sayest it.\n12 And when he was accused by the chief priests and ancients, he answered nothing.\n13 Then Pilate saith to him: Dost not thou hear how great testimonies they allege against thee?\n14 And he answered him to never a word; so that the governor wondered exceedingly.\n15 Now upon the solemn day the governor was accustomed to release to the people one prisoner, whom they would.\n16 And he had then a notorious prisoner, that was called Barabbas.\n17 They therefore being gathered together, Pilate said: Whom will you that I release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus that is called Christ?\n18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.\n19 And as he was sitting in the place of judgment, his wife sent to him, saying: Have thou nothing to do with that just man; for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.\n20 But the chief priests and ancients persuaded the people, that they should ask for Barabbas, and take Jesus away.\n21 And the governor answering, said to them: Whether will you of the two to be released unto you? But they said, Barabbas.\n22 Pilate saith to them: What shall I do then with Jesus that is called Christ? They say all: Let him be crucified.\n23 The governor said to them: Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying: Let him be crucified.\n24 And Pilate seeing that he prevailed nothing, but that rather a tumult was made; taking water washed his hands before the people, saying: I am innocent of the blood of this just man; look you to it.\n25 And the whole people answering, said: His blood be upon us and our children.\n26 Then he released to them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, delivered him unto them to be crucified.\n27 Then the soldiers of the governor taking Jesus into the hall, gathered together unto him the whole band;\n28 And stripping him, they put a scarlet cloak about him.\n29 And platting a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand. And bowing the knee before him, they mocked him, saying: Hail, king of the Jews.\n30 And spitting upon him, they took the reed, and struck his head.\n31 And after they had mocked him, they took off the cloak from him, and put on him his own garments, and led him away to crucify him.\n32 And going out, they found a man of Cyrene, named Simon: him they forced to take up his cross.\n33 And they came to the place that is called Golgotha, which is the place of Calvary.\n34 And they gave him wine to drink mingled with gall. And when he had tasted, he would not drink.\n35 And after they had crucified him, they divided his garments, casting lots; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying: They divided my garments among them; and upon my vesture they cast lots.\n36 And they sat and watched him.\n37 And they put over his head his cause written: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.\n38 Then were crucified with him two thieves: one on the right hand, and one on the left.\n39 And they that passed by, blasphemed him, wagging their heads,\n40 And saying: Vah, thou that destroyest the temple of God, and in three days dost rebuild it: save thy own self: if thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.\n41 In like manner also the chief priests, with the scribes and ancients, mocking, said:\n42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the king of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.\n43 He trusted in God; let him now deliver him if he will have him; for he said: I am the Son of God.\n44 And the selfsame thing the thieves also, that were crucified with him, reproached him with.\n45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over the whole earth, until the ninth hour.\n46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying: Eli, Eli, lamma sabacthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?\n47 And some that stood there and heard, said: This man calleth Elias.\n48 And immediately one of them running took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar; and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.\n49 And the others said: Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to deliver him.\n50 And Jesus again crying with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.\n51 And behold the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top even to the bottom, and the earth quaked, and the rocks were rent.\n52 And the graves were opened: and many bodies of the saints that had slept arose,\n53 And coming out of the tombs after his resurrection, came into the holy city, and appeared to many.\n54 Now the centurion and they that were with him watching Jesus, having seen the earthquake, and the things that were done, were sore afraid, saying: Indeed this was the Son of God.\n55 And there were there many women afar off, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:\n56 Among whom was Mary Magdalen, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.\n57 And when it was evening, there came a certain rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, who also himself was a disciple of Jesus.\n58 He went to Pilate, and asked the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded that the body should be delivered.\n59 And Joseph taking the body, wrapped it up in a clean linen cloth.\n60 And laid it in his own new monument, which he had hewed out in a rock. And he rolled a great stone to the door of the monument, and went his way.\n61 And there was there Mary Magdalen, and the other Mary sitting over against the sepulchre.\n62 And the next day, which followed the day of preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees came together to Pilate,\n63 Saying: Sir, we have remembered, that that seducer said, while he was yet alive: After three days I will rise again.\n64 Command therefore the sepulchre to be guarded until the third day: lest perhaps his disciples come and steal him away, and say to the people: He is risen from the dead; and the last error shall be worse than the first.\n65 Pilate saith to them: You have a guard; go, guard it as you know.\n66 And they departing, made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting guards.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "From which book and what chapter does \"Pheltia, Hanan, Anaia,\" come?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from Nehemiah, chapter 10.\n\nWant the full chapter?

chapter for you:\n1 Maccabees Chapter 1\n1 Now it came to pass, after that Alexander the son of Philip the Macedonian, who first reigned in Greece, coming out of the land of Cethim, had overthrown Darius king of the Persians and Medes:\n2 He fought many battles, and took the strong holds of all, and slew the kings of the earth:\n3 And he went through even to the ends of the earth, and took the spoils of many nations: and the earth was quiet before him.\n4 And he gathered a power, and a very strong army: and his heart was exalted and lifted up.\n5 And he subdued countries of nations, and princes: and they became tributaries to him.\n6 And after these things, he fell down upon his bed, and knew that he should die.\n7 And he called his servants the nobles that were brought up with him from his youth: and he divided his kingdom among them, while he was yet alive.\n8 And Alexander reigned twelve years, and he died.\n9 And his servants made themselves kings every one in his place:\n10 And they all put crowns upon themselves after his death, and their sons after them many years, and evils were multiplied in the earth.\n11 And there came out of them a wicked root, Antiochus the Illustrious, the son of king Antiochus, who had been a hostage at Rome: and he reigned in the hundred and thirty-seventh year of the kingdom of the Greeks.\n12 In those days there went out of Israel wicked men, and they persuaded many, saying: Let us go, and make a covenant with the heathens that are round about us: for since we departed from them, many evils have befallen us.\n13 And the word seemed good in their eyes.\n14 And some of the people determined to do this, and went to the king: and he gave them license to do after the ordinances of the heathens.\n15 And they built a place of exercise in Jerusalem, according to the laws of the nations:\n16 And they made themselves prepuces, and departed from the holy covenant, and joined themselves to the heathens, and were sold to do evil.\n17 And the kingdom was established before Antiochus, and he had a mind to reign over the land of Egypt, that he might reign over two kingdoms.\n18 And he entered into Egypt with a great multitude, with chariots and elephants, and horsemen, and a great number of ships:\n19 And he made war against Ptolemee king of Egypt, but Ptolemee was afraid at his presence, and fled, and many were wounded unto death.\n20 And he took the strong cities in the land of Egypt: and he took the spoils of the land of Egypt.\n21 And after Antiochus had ravaged Egypt in the hundred and forty-third year, he returned and went up against Israel.\n22 And he went up to Jerusalem with a great multitude.\n23 And he proudly entered into the sanctuary, and took away the golden altar, and the candlestick of light, and all the vessels thereof, and the table of proposition, and the pouring vessels, and the vials, and the little mortars of gold, and the veil, and the crowns, and the golden ornament that was before the temple: and he broke them all in pieces.\n24 And he took the silver and gold, and the precious vessels: and he took the hidden treasures which he found: and when he had taken all away he departed into his own country.\n25 And he made a great slaughter of men, and spoke very proudly.\n26 And there was great mourning in Israel, and in every place where they were.\n27 And the princes, and the ancients mourned, and the virgins and the young men were made feeble, and the beauty of the women was changed.\n28 Every bridegroom took up lamentation: and the bride that sat in the marriage bed, mourned:\n29 And the land was moved for the inhabitants thereof, and all the house of Jacob was covered with confusion.\n30 And after two full years the king sent the chief collector of his tributes to the cities of Juda, and he came to Jerusalem with a great multitude.\n31 And he spoke to them peaceable words in deceit: and they believed him.\n32 And he fell upon the city suddenly, and struck it with a great slaughter, and destroyed much people in Israel.\n33 And he took the spoils of the city, and burnt it with fire, and threw down the houses thereof, and the walls thereof round about:\n34 And they took the women captive, and the children, and the cattle they possessed.\n35 And they built the city of David with a great and strong wall, and with strong towers, and made it a fortress for them:\n36 And they placed there a sinful nation, wicked men, and they fortified themselves therein: and they stored up armour, and victuals, and gathered together the spoils of Jerusalem;\n37 And laid them up there: and they became a great snare.\n38 And this was a place to lie in wait against the sanctuary, and an evil devil in Israel.\n39 And they shed innocent blood round about the sanctuary, and defiled the holy place.\n40 And the inhabitants of Jerusalem fled away by reason of them, and the city was made the habitation of strangers, and she became a stranger to her own seed, and her children forsook her.\n41 Her sanctuary was desolate like a wilderness, her festival days were turned into mourning, her sabbaths into reproach, her honours were brought to nothing.\n42 Her dishonour was increased according to her glory, and her excellency was turned into mourning.\n43 And king Antiochus wrote to all his kingdom, that all the people should be one: and every one should leave his own law.\n44 And all nations consented according to the word of king Antiochus.\n45 And many of Israel consented to his service, and they sacrificed to idols, and profaned the sabbath.\n46 And the king sent letters by the hands of messengers to Jerusalem, and to all the cities of Juda: that they should follow the law of the nations of the earth,\n47 And should forbid holocausts and sacrifices, and atonements to be made in the temple of God.\n48 And should prohibit the sabbath, and the festival days, to be celebrated.\n49 And he commanded the holy places to be profaned, and the holy people of Israel.\n50 And he commanded altars to be built, and temples, and idols, and swine's flesh to be immolated, and unclean beasts.\n51 And that they should leave their children uncircumcised, and let their souls be defiled with all uncleannesses, and abominations, to the end that they should forget the law, and should change all the justifications of God.\n52 And that whosoever would not do according to the word of king Antiochus should be put to death.\n53 According to all these words he wrote to his whole kingdom, and he appointed rulers over the people that should force them to do these things.\n54 And they commanded the cities of Juda to sacrifice.\n55 Then many of the people were gathered to them that had forsaken the law of the Lord: and they committed evils in the land:\n56 And they drove away the people of Israel into lurking holes, and into the secret places of fugitives.\n57 On the fifteenth day of the month Casleu, in the hundred and forty-fifth year, king Antiochus set up the abominable idol of desolation upon the altar of God, and they built altars throughout all the cities of Juda round about:\n58 And they burnt incense, and sacrificed at the doors of the houses, and in the streets.\n59 And they cut in pieces, and burnt with fire the books of the law of God:\n60 And every one with whom the books of the testament of the Lord were found, and whosoever observed the law of the Lord, they put to death, according to the edict of the king.\n61 Thus by their power did they deal with the people of Israel, that were found in the cities month after month.\n62 And on the five and twentieth day of the month they sacrificed upon the altar of the idol that was over against the altar of God.\n63 Now the women that circumcised their children, were slain according to the commandment of king Antiochus.\n64 And they hanged the children about their necks in all their houses: and those that had circumcised them, they put to death.\n65 And many of the people of Israel determined with themselves, that they would not eat unclean things: and they chose rather to die than to be defiled with unclean meats.\n66 And they would not break the holy law of God, and they were put to death:\n67 And there was very great wrath upon the people.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "1 Thessalonians, chapter 3, verse 2 - what does

name for ever.\n8 And I will no more make the feet of Israel to be moved out of the land, which I gave to their fathers: only if they will observe to do all that I have commanded them according to the law which my servant Moses commanded them.\n9 But they hearkened not: but were seduced by Manasses, to do evil more than the nations which the Lord destroyed before the children of Israel.\n10 And the Lord spoke in the hand of his servants, the prophets, saying:\n11 Because Manasses king of Juda hath done these most wicked abominations, beyond all that the Amorrhites did before him, and hath made Juda also to sin with his filthy doings:\n12 Therefore thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Behold I will bring on evils upon Jerusalem and Juda: that whosoever shall hear of them, both his ears shall tingle.\n13 And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the weight of the house of Achab: and I will efface Jerusalem, as tables are wont to be effaced, and I will erase and turn it, and draw the pencil often over the face thereof.\n14 And I will leave the remnants of my inheritance, and will deliver them into the hands of their enemies: and they shall become a prey, and a spoil to all their enemies.\n15 Because they have done evil before me, and have continued to provoke me, from the day that their fathers came out of Egypt, even unto this day.\n16 Moreover Manasses shed also very much innocent blood, till he filled Jerusalem up to the mouth: besides his sins, wherewith he made Juda to sin, to do evil before the Lord.\n17 Now the rest of the acts of Manasses, and all that he did, and his sin which he sinned, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?\n18 And Manasses slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Oza: and Amen his son reigned in his stead.\n19 Two and twenty years old was Amen when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Messalemeth the daughter of Harus of Jeteba.\n20 And he did evil in the sight, of the Lord, as Manasses his father had done.\n21 And he walked in all the way in which his father had walked: and he served the abominations which his father had served, and he adored them;\n22 And forsook the Lord the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.\n23 And his servants plotted against

Who can forgive sins, but God only?\n8 Which Jesus presently knowing in his spirit, that they so thought within themselves, saith to them: Why think you these things in your hearts?\n9 Which is easier, to say to the sick of the palsy: Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say: Arise, take up thy bed, and walk?\n10 But that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)\n11 I say to thee: Arise, take up thy bed, and go into thy house.\n12 And immediately he arose; and taking up his bed, went his way in the sight of all; so that all wondered and glorified God, saying: We never saw the like.\n13 And he went forth again to the sea side; and all the multitude came to him, and he taught them.\n14 And when he was passing by, he saw Levi the son of Alpheus sitting at the receipt of custom; and he saith to him: Follow me.

As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.\n20 But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them; and then they shall fast in those days.\n21 No man seweth a piece of raw cloth to an old garment: otherwise the new piecing taketh away from the old, and there is made a greater rent.\n22 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: otherwise the wine will burst the bottles, and both the wine will be spilled, and the bottles will be lost.

And withal consider that I am your bone, and your flesh.\n3 And his mother's brethren spoke of him to all the men of Sichem, all these words, and they inclined their hearts after Abimelech, saying: He is our brother:\n4 And they gave him seventy weight of silver out of the temple of Baalberith: wherewith he hired to himself men that were needy, and vagabonds, and they followed him.\n5 And he came to his father's house in Ephra, and slew his brethren the sons of Jerobaal, seventy men, upon one stone: and there remained only Joatham the youngest son of Jerobaal, who was hidden.\n6 And all the men of Sichem were gathered together, and all the families of the city of Mello: and they went and made Abimelech king, by the oak that stood in Sichem.\n7 This being told to Joatham, he went and stood on the top of mount Garizim: and lifting up his voice, he cried, and said: Hear me, ye men of Sichem, so may God hear you.\n8 The trees went to anoint a king over them: and they said to the olive tree: Reign thou over us.\n9 And it answered: Can I leave my fatness, which both gods and men make use of, to come to be promoted among the trees?\n10 And the trees said to the fig tree: Come thou and reign over us.\n11 And it answered them: Can I leave my sweetness, and my delicious fruits, and go to be promoted among the other trees?\n12 And the trees said to the vine: Come thou and reign over us.\n13 And it answered them: Can I forsake my wine, that cheereth God and men, and be promoted among the other trees?\n14 And all the trees said to the bramble: Come thou and reign over us.\n15 And it answered them: If indeed you mean to make me king, come ye and rest under my shadow: but if you mean it not, let fire come out from the bramble, and devour the cedars of Libanus.\n16 Now therefore if you have done well, and without sin in appointing Abimelech king over you, and have dealt well with Jerobaal, and with his house, and have made a suitable return for the benefits of him, who fought for you,\n17 And exposed his life to dangers, to deliver you from the hands of Madian,\n18 And you are now risen up against my father's house, and have killed his sons seventy men upon one stone, and have made Abimelech the son of his handmaid king over the inhabitants of Sichem, because he is your brother:\n19 If therefore you have dealt well, and without fault with Jerobaal, and his house, rejoice ye this day in Abimelech, and may he rejoice in you.\n20 But if unjustly: let fire come out from him, and consume the inhabitants of Sichem, and the town of Mello: and let fire come out from the men of Sichem, and from the town of Mello, and devour Abimelech.\n21 And when he had said thus he fled, and went into Bera: and dwelt there for fear of Abimelech his brother.\n22 So Abimelech reigned over Israel for three years.\n23 And the Lord sent a very evil spirit between Abimelech and the inhabitants of Sichem: who began to detest him,\n24 And to leave the crime of the murder of the seventy sons of Jerobaal, and the shedding of their blood upon Abimelech their brother, and upon the rest of the princes of the Sichemites, who aided him.\n25 And they set an ambush against him on the top of the mountains: and while they waited for his coming, they committed robberies, taking spoils of all that passed by: and it was told Abimelech.\n26 And Gaal the son of Obed came with his brethren, and went over to Sichem. And the inhabitants of Sichem taking courage at his coming,\n27 Went out into the fields, wasting the vineyards, and treading down the grapes: and singing and dancing they went into the temple of their god, and in their banquets and cups they cursed Abimelech.\n28 And Gaal the son of Obed cried: Who is Abimelech, and what is Sichem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerobaal, and hath made Zebul his servant ruler over the men of Emor the father of Sichem? Why then shall we serve him?\n29 Would to God that some man would put this people under my hand, that I might remove Abimelech out of the way. And it was said to Abimelech: Gather together the multitude of an army, and come.\n30 For Zebul the ruler of the city, hearing the words of Gaal, the son of Obed, was very angry,\n31 And sent messengers privately to Abimelech, saying: Behold Gaal the son of Obed is come into Sichem with his brethren, and endeavoureth to set the city against thee.\n32 Arise therefore in the night with the people that is with thee and he hid in the field:\n33 And betimes in the morning at sun rising set upon the city. And when he shall come out against thee with his people, do to him what thou shalt be able.\n34 Abimelech therefore arose with all his army by night, and laid ambushes near Sichem in four places.\n35 And Gaal the son of Obed went out, and stood in the entrance of the gate of the city. And Abimelech rose up, and all his army with him from the places of the ambushes.\n36 And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul: Behold a multitude cometh down from the mountains. And he answered him: Thou seest the shadows of the mountains as if they were the heads of men, and this is thy mistake.\n37 Again Gaal said: Behold there cometh people down from the middle of the land, and one troop cometh by the way that looketh towards the oak.\n38 And Zebul said to him: Where is now thy mouth wherewith thou saidst? Who is Abimelech that we should serve him? Is not this the people which thou didst despise? Go out, and fight against him.\n39 So Gaal went out in the sight of the people of Sichem, and fought against Abimelech,\n40 Who chased and put him to flight, and drove him to the city: and many were slain of his people, even to the gate of the city:\n41 And Abimelech sat down in Ruma: but Zebul drove Gaal, and his companions out of the city, and would not suffer them to abide in it.\n42 So the day following the people went out into the field. And it was told Abimelech.\n43 And he took his army, and divided it into three companies, and laid ambushes in the fields. And seeing that the people came out of the city, he arose and set upon them,\n44 With his own company, assaulting and besieging the city: whilst the two other companies chased the enemies that were scattered about the field.\n45 And Abimelech assaulted the city all that day: and took it, and killed the inhabitants thereof, and demolished it, so that he sowed salt in it.\n46 And when they who dwelt in the tower of Sichem had heard this, they went into the temple of their god Berith where they had made a covenant with him, and from thence the place had taken its name, and it was exceeding strong.\n47 Abimelech also hearing that the men of the tower of Sichem were gathered together,\n48 Went up into mount Selmon he and all his people with him: and taking an axe, he cut down the bough of a tree, and laying it on his shoulder and carrying it, he said to his companions: What you see me do, do you out of hand.\n49 So they cut down boughs from the trees, every man as fast as he could, and followed their leader. And surrounding the fort they set it on fire: and so it came to pass that with the smoke and with the fire a thousand persons were killed, men and women together, of the inhabitants of the tower of Sichem.\n50 Then Abimelech departing from thence came to the town of Thebes, which he surrounded and besieged with his army.\n51 And there was in the midst of the city a high tower, to which both the men and the women were fled together, and all the princes of the city, and having shut and strongly barred the gate, they stood upon the battlements of the tower to defend themselves.\n52 And Abimelech coming near the tower, fought stoutly: and approaching to the gate, endeavoured to set fire to it:\n53 And behold a certain woman casting a piece of a millstone from above, dashed it against the head of Abimelech, and broke his skull.\n54 And he called hastily to his armourbearer, and said to him: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest it should be said that I was slain by a woman. He did as he was commanded, and slew him.\n55 And when he was dead, all the men of Israel that were with him, returned to their homes.\n56 And God repaid the evil, that Abimelech had done against his father, killing his seventy brethren.\n57 The Sichemites also were rewarded for what they had done, and the curse of Joatham the son of Jerobaal came upon them.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does Luke chapter 12 verse 16 say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Luke 12:16 from the New Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"And he spoke a similitude to them, saying: The land of a certain rich man brought forth plenty of fruits.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you read Mark chapter 15, verse 11?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Mark 15:11 of the New Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas to them.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"And all that may pass through the fire, shall be purified by fire, but whatsoever cannot abide the fire, shall be sanctified with the water of expiation:\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in Numbers, chapter 31.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\nNumbers Chapter 31\n1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n2 Revenge first the children of Israel on the Madianites, and so thou shalt be gathered to thy people.\n3 And Moses forthwith said: Arm of you men to fight, who may take the revenge of the Lord on the Madianites.\n4 Let a thousand men be chosen out of every tribe of Israel to be sent to the war.\n5 And they gave a thousand of every tribe, that is to say, twelve thousand men well appointed for battle.\n6 And Moses sent them with Phinees the son of Eleazar the priest, and he delivered to him the holy vessels, and the trumpets to sound.\n7 And when they had fought against the Madianites and had overcome them, they slew all the men.\n8 And their kings Evi, and Recem, and Sur, and Hur, and Rebe, five princes of the nation: Balaam also the son of Beer they killed with the sword.\n9 And they took their women, and their children captives, and all their cattle, and all their goods: and all their possessions they plundered:\n10 And all their cities, and their villages, and castles, they burned.\n11 And they carried away the booty, and all that they had taken both of men and of beasts.\n12 And they brought them to Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and to all the multitude of the children of Israel.

For no account was made of silver in those days.\n21 For the king's ships went to Tharsis with the servants of Hiram, once in three years: and they brought thence gold and silver, and ivory, and apes, and peacocks.\n22 And Solomon was magnified above all the kings of the earth for riches and glory.\n23 And all the kings of the earth desired to see the face of Solomon, that they might hear the wisdom which God had given in his heart.\n24 And every year they brought him presents, vessels of silver and of gold, and garments, and armour, and spices, and horses, and mules.\n25 And Solomon had forty thousand horses in the stables, and twelve thousand chariots, and horsemen, and he placed them in the cities of the chariots, and where the king was in Jerusalem.\n26 And he exercised authority over all the kings from the river Euphrates to the land of the Philistines, and to the borders of Egypt.\n27 And he made silver as plentiful in Jerusalem as stones: and cedars as common as the sycamores, which grow in the plains.\n28 And horses were brought to him out of Egypt, and out of all countries.\n29 Now the rest of the acts of Solomon first and last are written in the words of Nathan the prophet, and in the books of Ahias the Silonite, and in the vision of Addo the seer, against Jeroboam the son of Nabat.\n30 And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years.\n31 And he slept with his fathers: and they buried him in the city of David: and Roboam his son reigned in his stead.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which chapter and book contains \"And the people going out pillaged the camp of the Syrians: and a bushel of fine flour was sold for a stater, and two bushels of barley for a stater, according to the word of the Lord.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're asking about is in 2 Kings, chapter 7.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n2 Kings Chapter 7\n1 And Eliseus said: Hear ye the word of the Lord: Thus saith the Lord: To morrow about this time a bushel of fine hour shall be sold for a stater, and two bushels of barley for a stater, in the gate of Samaria.\n2 Then one of the lords, upon whose hand the king leaned, answering the man of God, said: If the Lord should make flood-gates in heaven, can that possibly be which thou sayest?

And whereas he saith,\n27 All things are put under him; undoubtedly, he is excepted, who put all things under him.\n28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then the Son also himself shall be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.\n29 Otherwise what shall they do that are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not again at all? why are they then baptized for them?\n30 Why also are we in danger every hour?\n31 I die daily, I protest by your glory, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.\n32 If (according to man) I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what doth it profit me, if the dead rise not again? Let us eat and drink, for to morrow we shall die.\n33 Be not seduced: Evil communications corrupt good manners.\n34 Awake, ye just, and sin not. For some have not the knowledge of God, I speak it to your shame.\n35 But some man will say: How do the dead rise again? or with what manner of body shall they come?\n36 Senseless man, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die first.\n37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be; but bare grain, as of wheat, or of some of the rest.\n38 But God giveth it a body as he will: and to every seed its proper body.\n39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but one is the flesh of men, another of beasts, another of birds, another of fishes.\n40 And there are bodies celestial, and bodies terrestrial: but, one is the glory of the celestial, and another of the terrestrial.\n41 One is the glory of the sun, another the glory of the moon, and another the glory of the stars. For star differeth from star in glory.\n42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it shall rise in incorruption.\n43 It is sown in dishonour, it shall rise in glory. It is sown in weakness, it shall rise in power.\n44 It is sown a natural body, it shall rise a spiritual body. If there be a natural body, there is also a spiritual body, as it is written:\n45 The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit.\n46 Yet that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; afterwards that which is spiritual.\n47 The first man was of the earth, earthly: the second man, from heaven, heavenly.\n48 Such as is the earthly, such also are the earthly: and such as is the heavenly, such also are they that are heavenly.\n49 Therefore as we have borne the image of the earthly, let us bear also the image of the heavenly.\n50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot possess the kingdom of God: neither shall corruption possess incorruption.\n51 Behold, I tell you a mystery. We shall all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be changed.\n52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall rise again incorruptible: and we shall be changed.\n53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption; and this mortal must put on immortality.\n54 And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.\n55 O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?\n56 Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law.\n57 But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.\n58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast and unmoveable; always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where does it say \"And the day after the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of his house.

And thus he concluded his prayer.\n25 But Nicanor, and they that were with him came forward, with trumpets and songs.\n26 But Judas, and they that were with him, encountered them, calling upon God by prayers:\n27 So fighting with their hands, but praying to the Lord with their hearts, they slew no less than five and thirty thousand, being greatly cheered with the presence of God.\n28 And when the battle was over, and they were returning with joy, they understood that Nicanor was slain in his armour.\n29 Then making a shout, and a great noise, they blessed the Almighty Lord in their own language.\n30 And Judas, who was altogether ready, in body and mind, to die for his countrymen, commanded that Nicanor's head, and his hand with the shoulder should be cut off, and carried to Jerusalem.\n31 And when he was come thither, having called together his countrymen, and the priests to the altar, he sent also for them that were in the castle,\n32 And shewing them the head of Nicanor, and the wicked hand, which he had stretched out, with proud boasts, against the holy house of the Almighty God,\n33 He commanded also, that the tongue of the wicked Nicanor, should be cut out and given by pieces to birds, and the hand of the furious man to be hanged up over against the temple.\n34 Then all blessed the Lord of heaven, saying: Blessed be he that hath kept his own place undefiled.\n35 And he hung up Nicanor's head in the top of the castle, that it might be an evident and manifest sign of the help of God.\n36 And they all ordained by a common decree, by no means to let this day pass without solemnity:\n37 But to celebrate the thirteenth day of the month of Adar, called, in the Syrian language, the day before Mardochias' day.\n38 So these things being done with relation to Nicanor, and from that time the city being possessed by the Hebrews, I also will here make an end of my narration.\n39 Which if I have done well, and as it becometh the history, it is what I desired: but if not so perfectly, it must be pardoned me.\n40 For as it is hurtful to drink always wine, or always water, but pleasant to use sometimes the one, and sometimes the other: so if the speech be always nicely framed, it will not be grateful to the readers.

If a man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world:\n10 But if he walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.\n11 These things he said; and after that he said to them: Lazarus our friend sleepeth; but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.\n12 His disciples therefore said: Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.\n13 But Jesus spoke of his death; and they thought that he spoke of the repose of sleep.\n14 Then therefore Jesus said to them plainly: Lazarus is dead.\n15 And I am glad, for your sakes, that I was not there, that you may believe: but let us go to him.\n16 Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples: Let us also go, that we may die with him.\n17 Jesus therefore came, and found that he had been four days already in the grave.\n18 (Now Bethania was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off.)\n19 And many of the Jews were come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.\n20 Martha therefore, as soon as she heard that Jesus had come, went to meet him: but Mary sat at home.\n21 Martha therefore said to Jesus: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.\n22 But now also I know that whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.\n23 Jesus saith to her: Thy brother shall rise again.\n24 Martha saith to him: I know that he shall rise again, in the resurrection at the last day.\n25 Jesus said to her: I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, although he be dead, shall live:\n26 And every one that liveth, and believeth in me, shall not die for ever. Believest thou this?\n27 She saith to him: Yea, Lord, I have believed that thou art Christ the Son of the living God, who art come into this world.\n28 And when she had said these things, she went, and called her sister Mary secretly, saying: The master is come, and calleth for thee.\n29 She, as soon as she heard this, riseth quickly, and cometh to him.\n30 For Jesus was not yet come into the town: but he was still in that place where Martha had met him.\n31 The Jews therefore, who were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary that she rose up speedily and went out, followed her, saying: She goeth to the grave to weep there.\n32 When Mary therefore was come where Jesus was, seeing him, she fell down at his feet, and saith to him: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.\n33 Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews that were come with her, weeping, groaned in the spirit, and troubled himself,\n34 And said: Where have you laid him?

And withal consider that I am your bone, and your flesh.\n3 And his mother's brethren spoke of him to all the men of Sichem, all these words, and they inclined their hearts after Abimelech, saying: He is our brother:\n4 And they gave him seventy weight of silver out of the temple of Baalberith: wherewith he hired to himself men that were needy, and vagabonds, and they followed him.\n5 And he came to his father's house in Ephra, and slew his brethren the sons of Jerobaal, seventy men, upon one stone: and there remained only Joatham the youngest son of Jerobaal, who was hidden.\n6 And all the men of Sichem were gathered together, and all the families of the city of Mello: and they went and made Abimelech king, by the oak that stood in Sichem.\n7 This being told to Joatham, he went and stood on the top of mount Garizim: and lifting up his voice, he cried, and said: Hear me, ye men of Sichem, so may God hear you.\n8 The trees went to anoint a king over them: and they said to the olive tree: Reign thou over us.\n9 And it answered: Can I leave my fatness, which both gods and men make use of, to come to be promoted among the trees?\n10 And the trees said to the fig tree: Come thou and reign over us.\n11 And it answered them: Can I leave my sweetness, and my delicious fruits, and go to be promoted among the other trees?\n12 And the trees said to the vine: Come thou and reign over us.\n13 And it answered them: Can I forsake my wine, that cheereth God and men, and be promoted among the other trees?\n14 And all the trees said to the bramble: Come thou and reign over us.\n15 And it answered them: If indeed you mean to make me king, come ye and rest under my shadow: but if you mean it not, let fire come out from the bramble, and devour the cedars of Libanus.\n16 Now therefore if you have done well, and without sin in appointing Abimelech king over you, and have dealt well with Jerobaal, and with his house, and have made a suitable return for the benefits of him, who fought for you,\n17 And exposed his life to dangers, to deliver you from the hands of Madian,\n18 And you are now risen up against my father's house, and have killed his sons seventy men upon one stone, and have made Abimelech the son of his handmaid king over the inhabitants of Sichem, because he is your brother:\n19 If therefore you have dealt well, and without fault with Jerobaal, and his house, rejoice ye this day in Abimelech, and may he rejoice in you.\n20 But if unjustly: let fire come out from him, and consume the inhabitants of Sichem, and the town of Mello: and let fire come out from the men of Sichem, and from the town of Mello, and devour Abimelech.\n21 And when he had said thus he fled, and went into Bera: and dwelt there for fear of Abimelech his brother.\n22 So Abimelech reigned over Israel for three years.\n23 And the Lord sent a very evil spirit between Abimelech and the inhabitants of Sichem: who began to detest him,\n24 And to leave the crime of the murder of the seventy sons of Jerobaal, and the shedding of their blood upon Abimelech their brother, and upon the rest of the princes of the Sichemites, who aided him.\n25 And they set an ambush against him on the top of the mountains: and while they waited for his coming, they committed robberies, taking spoils of all that passed by: and it was told Abimelech.\n26 And Gaal the son of Obed came with his brethren, and went over to Sichem. And the inhabitants of Sichem taking courage at his coming,\n27 Went out into the fields, wasting the vineyards, and treading down the grapes: and singing and dancing they went into the temple of their god, and in their banquets and cups they cursed Abimelech.\n28 And Gaal the son of Obed cried: Who is Abimelech, and what is Sichem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerobaal, and hath made Zebul his servant ruler over the men of Emor the father of Sichem? Why then shall we serve him?\n29 Would to God that some man would put this people under my hand, that I might remove Abimelech out of the way.

Who is Abimelech that we should serve him? Is not this the people which thou didst despise? Go out, and fight against him.\n39 So Gaal went out in the sight of the people of Sichem, and fought against Abimelech,\n40 Who chased and put him to flight, and drove him to the city: and many were slain of his people, even to the gate of the city:\n41 And Abimelech sat down in Ruma: but Zebul drove Gaal, and his companions out of the city, and would not suffer them to abide in it.\n42 So the day following the people went out into the field.

And surrounding the fort they set it on fire: and so it came to pass that with the smoke and with the fire a thousand persons were killed, men and women together, of the inhabitants of the tower of Sichem.\n50 Then Abimelech departing from thence came to the town of Thebes, which he surrounded and besieged with his army.\n51 And there was in the midst of the city a high tower, to which both the men and the women were fled together, and all the princes of the city, and having shut and strongly barred the gate, they stood upon the battlements of the tower to defend themselves.\n52 And Abimelech coming near the tower, fought stoutly: and approaching to the gate, endeavoured to set fire to it:\n53 And behold a certain woman casting a piece of a millstone from above, dashed it against the head of Abimelech, and broke his skull.\n54 And he called hastily to his armourbearer, and said to him: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest it should be said that I was slain by a woman.

He will come and destroy those husbandmen; and will give the vineyard to others.\n10 And have you not read this scripture, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is made the head of the corner:\n11 By the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes.\n12 And they sought to lay hands on him, but they feared the people. For they knew that he spoke this parable to them. And leaving him, they went their way.\n13 And they sent to him some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians; that they should catch him in his words.\n14 Who coming, say to him: Master, we know that thou art a true speaker, and carest not for any man; for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar; or shall we not give it?\n15 Who knowing their wiliness, saith to them: Why tempt you me? bring me a penny that I may see it.\n16 And they brought it him. And he saith to them: Whose is this image and inscription? They say to him, Caesar's.\n17 And Jesus answering, said to them: Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him.\n18 And there came to him the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying:\n19 Master, Moses wrote unto us, that if any man's brother die, and leave his wife behind him, and leave no children, his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.\n20 Now there were seven brethren; and the first took a wife, and died leaving no issue.\n21 And the second took her, and died: and neither did he leave any issue. And the third in like manner.\n22 And the seven all took her in like manner; and did not leave issue. Last of all the woman also died.\n23 In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise again, whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.\n24 And Jesus answering, saith to them: Do ye not therefore err, because you know not the scriptures, nor the power of God?\n25 For when they shall rise again from the dead, they shall neither marry, nor be married, but are as the angels in heaven.\n26 And as concerning the dead that they rise again, have you not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spoke to him, saying: I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?\n27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You therefore do greatly err.\n28 And there came one of the scribes that had heard them reasoning together, and seeing that he had answered them well, asked him which was the first commandment of all.\n29 And Jesus answered him: The first commandment of all is, Hear, O Israel: the Lord thy God is one God.\n30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God, with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind, and with thy whole strength. This is the first commandment.\n31 And the second is like to it: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is no other commandment greater than these.\n32 And the scribe said to him: Well, Master, thou hast said in truth, that there is one God, and there is no other besides him.\n33 And that he should be loved with the whole heart, and with the whole understanding, and with the whole soul, and with the whole strength; and to love one's neighbour as one's self, is a greater thing than all holocausts and sacrifices.\n34 And Jesus seeing that he had answered wisely, said to him: Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any question.\n35 And Jesus answering, said, teaching in the temple: How do the scribes say, that Christ is the son of David?\n36 For David himself saith by the Holy Ghost: The Lord said to my Lord, Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool.\n37 David therefore himself calleth him Lord, and whence is he then his son?

but the bearers thereof desired it might not be bestowed on the sacrifices, because it was not necessary, but might be deputed for other charges.\n20 So the money was appointed by him that sent it to the sacrifice of Hercules: but because of them that carried it was employed for the making of galleys.\n21 Now when Apollonius the son of Mnestheus was sent into Egypt to treat with the nobles of king Philometor, and Antiochus understood that he was wholly excluded from the affairs of the kingdom, consulting his own interest, he departed thence and came to Joppe, and from thence to Jerusalem:\n22 Where he was received in a, magnificent manner by Jason, and the city, and came in with torch lights, and with praises, and from thence he returned with his army into Phenicia.\n23 Three years afterwards Jason sent Menelaus, brother of the aforesaid Simon, to carry money to the king, and to bring answers from him concerning certain necessary affairs.\n24 But he being recommended to the king, when he had magnified the appearance of his power, got the high priesthood for himself, by offering more than Jason by three hundred talents of silver.\n25 So having received the king's mandate, he returned bringing nothing worthy of the high priesthood: but having the mind of a cruel tyrant, and the rage of a savage beast.\n26 Then Jason, who had undermined his own brother, being himself undermined, was driven out a fugitive into the country of the Ammonites.\n27 So Menelaus got the principality: but as for the money he had promised to the king he took no care, when Sostratus the governor of the castle called for it.\n28 For to him appertained the gathering of the taxes: wherefore they were both called before the king.\n29 And Menelaus was removed from the priesthood, Lysimachus his brother succeeding: and Sostratus was made governor of the Cyprians.\n30 When these things were in doing, it fell out that they of Tharsus and Mallos raised a sedition, because they were given for a gift to Antiochis, the king's concubine.\n31 The king therefore went in all haste to appease them, leaving Andronicus, one of his nobles, for his deputy.\n32 Then Menelaus supposing that he had found a convenient time, having stolen certain vessels of gold out of the temple, gave them to Andronicus, and others he had sold at Tyre, and in the neighbouring cities.\n33 Which when Onias understood most certainly, he reproved him, keeping himself in a safe place at Antioch beside Daphne.\n34 Whereupon Menelaus coming to Andronicus, desired him to kill Onias. And he went to Onias, and gave him his right hand with an oath, and (though he were suspected by him) persuaded him to come forth out of the sanctuary, and immediately slew him, without any regard to justice.\n35 For which cause not only the Jews, but also the other nations, conceived indignation, and were much grieved for the unjust murder of so great a man.\n36 And when the king was come back from the places of Cilicia, the Jews that were at Antioch, and also the Greeks went to him: complaining of the unjust murder of Onias.\n37 Antiochus therefore was grieved in his mind for Onias, and being moved to pity, shed tears, remembering the sobriety and modesty of the deceased.\n38 And being inflamed to anger, he commanded Andronicus to be stripped of his purple, and to be led about through all the city: and that in the same place wherein he had committed the impiety against Onias, the sacrilegious wretch should be put to death, the Lord repaying him his deserved punishment.\n39 Now when many sacrileges had been committed by Lysimachus in the temple by the counsel of Menelaus, and the rumour of it was spread abroad, the multitude gathered themselves together against Lysimachus, a great quantity of gold being already carried away.\n40 Wherefore the multitude making an insurrection, and their minds being filled with anger, Lysimachus armed about three thousand men, and began to use violence, one Tyrannus being captain, a man far gone both in age, and in madness.\n41 But when they perceived the attempt of Lysimachus, some caught up stones, some strong clubs: and some threw ashes upon Lysimachus,\n42 And many of them were wounded, and some struck down to the ground, but all were put to flight: and as for the sacrilegious fellow himself, they slew him beside the treasury.\n43 Now concerning these matters, an accusation was laid against Menelaus.\n44 And when the king was come to Tyre, three men were sent from the ancients to plead the cause before him.\n45 But Menelaus being convicted, promised Ptolemee to give him much money to persuade the king to favour him.\n46 So Ptolemee went to the king in a certain court where he was, as it were to cool himself, and brought him to be of another mind:\n47 So Menelaus who was guilty of all the evil, was acquitted by him of the accusations: and those poor men, who, if they had pleaded their cause even before Scythians, should have been judged innocent, were condemned to death.\n48 Thus they that prosecuted the cause for the city, and for the people, and the sacred vessels, did soon suffer unjust punishment.\n49 Wherefore even the Tyrians being moved with indignation, were liberal towards their burial.\n50 And so through the covetousness of them that were in power, Menelaus continued in authority, increasing in malice to the betraying of the citizens.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"And David danced with all his might before the Lord: and David was girded with a linen ephod.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from 2 Samuel, chapter 6.\n\nWant the full chapter?

There are just men to whom evils happen, as though they had done the works of the wicked: and there are wicked men, who are as secure, as though they had the deeds of the just: but this also I judge most vain.\n15 Therefore I commended mirth, because there was no good for a man under the sun, but to eat, and drink, and be merry, and that he should take nothing else with him of his labour in the days of his life, which God hath given him under the sun.\n16 And I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to understand the distraction that is upon earth: for there are some that day and night take no sleep with their eyes.\n17 And I understood that man can find no reason of all those works of God that are done under the sun: and the more he shall labour to seek, so much the less shall he find: yea, though the wise man shall say, that he knoweth it, he shall not be able to find it.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and chapter does \"Woe to the sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a wicked seed, ungracious children: they have forsaken the Lord, they have blasphemed the Holy One of Israel, they are gone away backwards.\" belong to?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from Isaiah, chapter 1.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\nIsaiah Chapter 1\n1 The vision of Isaias the son of Amos I which he saw concerning Juda and Jerusalem in the days of Ozias, Joathan, Achaz, and Ezechias, kings of Juda.\n2 Hear, O ye heavens, and give ear, O earth, for the Lord hath spoken.

The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Charan.\n3 And said to him: Go forth out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.\n4 Then he went out of the land of the Chaldeans, and dwelt in Charan. And from thence, after his father was dead, he removed him into this land, wherein you now dwell.\n5 And he gave him no inheritance in it; no, not the pace of a foot: but he promised to give it him in possession, and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child.\n6 And God said to him: That his seed should sojourn in a strange country, and that they should bring them under bondage, and treat them evil four hundred years.\n7 And the nation which they shall serve will I judge, said the Lord; and after these things they shall go out, and shall serve me in this place.\n8 And he gave him the covenant of circumcision, and so he begot Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac begot Jacob; and Jacob the twelve patriarchs.\n9 And the patriarchs, through envy, sold Joseph into Egypt; and God was with him,\n10 And delivered him out of all his tribulations: and he gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharao, the king of Egypt; and he appointed him governor over Egypt, and over all his house.\n11 Now there came a famine upon all Egypt and Chanaan, and great tribulation; and our fathers found no food.\n12 But when Jacob had heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent our fathers first:\n13 And at the second time, Joseph was known by his brethren, and his kindred was made known to Pharao.\n14 And Joseph sending, called thither Jacob, his father, and all his kindred, seventy-five souls.\n15 So Jacob went down into Egypt; and he died, and our fathers.\n16 And they were translated into Sichem, and were laid in the sepulchre, that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Hemor, the son of Sichem.\n17 And when the time of the promise drew near, which God had promised to Abraham, the people increased, and were multiplied in Egypt,\n18 Till another king arose in Egypt, who knew not Joseph.\n19 This same dealing craftily with our race, afflicted our fathers, that they should expose their children, to the end they might not be kept alive.\n20 At the same time was Moses born, and he was acceptable to God: who was nourished three months in his father's house.\n21 And when he was exposed, Pharao's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.\n22 And Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians; and he was mighty in his words and in his deeds.\n23 And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren, the children of Israel.\n24 And when he had seen one of them suffer wrong, he defended him; and striking the Egyptian, he avenged him who suffered the injury.\n25 And he thought that his brethren understood that God by his hand would save them; but they understood it not.\n26 And the day following, he shewed himself to them when they were at strife; and would have reconciled them in peace, saying: Men, ye are brethren; why hurt you one another?\n27 But he that did the injury to his neighbour thrust him away, saying: Who hath appointed thee prince and judge over us?\n28 What, wilt thou kill me, as thou didst yesterday kill the Egyptian?\n29 And Moses fled upon this word, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begot two sons.\n30 And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the desert of mount Sina, an angel in a flame of fire in a bush.\n31 And Moses seeing it, wondered at the sight. And as he drew near to view it, the voice of the Lord came unto him, saying:\n32 I am the God of thy fathers; the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses being terrified, durst not behold.\n33 And the Lord said to him: Loose the shoes from thy feet, for the place wherein thou standest, is holy ground.\n34 Seeing I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, and I will send thee into Egypt.\n35 This Moses, whom they refused, saying: Who hath appointed thee prince and judge? him God sent to be prince and redeemer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.\n36 He brought them out, doing wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red Sea, and in the desert forty years.\n37 This is that Moses who said to the children of Israel: A prophet shall God raise up to you of your own brethren, as myself: him shall you hear.\n38 This is he that was in the church in the wilderness, with the angel who spoke to him on mount Sina, and with our fathers; who received the words of life to give unto us.\n39 Whom our fathers would not obey; but thrust him away, and in their hearts turned back into Egypt,\n40 Saying to Aaron: Make us gods to go before us. For as for this Moses, who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him.\n41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifices to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.\n42 And God turned, and gave them up to serve the host of heaven, as it is written in the books of the prophets: Did you offer victims and sacrifices to me for forty years, in the desert, O house of Israel?\n43 And you took unto you the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Rempham, figures which you made to adore them. And I will carry you away beyond Babylon.\n44 The tabernacle of the testimony was with our fathers in the desert, as God ordained for them, speaking to Moses, that he should make it according to the form which he had seen.\n45 Which also our fathers receiving, brought in with Jesus, into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David.\n46 Who found grace before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.\n47 But Solomon built him a house.\n48 Yet the most High dwelleth not in houses made by hands, as the prophet saith:\n49 Heaven is my throne, and the earth my footstool. What house will you build me? saith the Lord; or what is the place of my resting?\n50 Hath not my hand made all these things?\n51 You stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do you also.\n52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? And they have slain them who foretold of the coming of the Just One; of whom you have been now the betrayers and murderers:\n53 Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it.\n54 Now hearing these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed with their teeth at him.\n55 But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looking up steadfastly to heaven, saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God. And he said: Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.\n56 And they crying out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and with one accord ran violently upon him.\n57 And casting him forth without the city, they stoned him; and the witnesses laid down their garments at the feet of a young man, whose name was Saul.\n58 And they stoned Stephen, invoking, and saying: Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.\n59 And falling on his knees, he cried with a loud voice, saying: Lord, lay not this sin to their charge.

For as a vessel that a man uses when it is broken becometh useless, even so are their gods:\n16 When they are placed in the house, their eyes are full of dust by the feet of them that go in.\n17 And as the gates are made sure on every side upon one that hath offended the king, or like a dead man carried to the grave, so do the priests secure the doors with bars and locks, lest they be stripped by thieves.\n18 They light candles to them, and in great number, of which they cannot see one: but they are like beams in the house.\n19 And they say that the creeping things which are of the earth, gnaw their hearts, while they eat them and their garments, and they feel it not.\n20 Their faces are black with the smoke that is made in the house.\n21 Owls, and swallows, and other birds fly upon their bodies, and upon their heads, and cats in like manner.\n22 Whereby you may know that they are no gods. Therefore fear them not.\n23 The gold also which they have, is for shew, but except a man wipe off the rust, they will not shine: for neither when they were molten, did they feel it.\n24 Men buy them at a high price, whereas there is no breath in them.\n25 And having not the use of feet they are carried upon shoulders, declaring to men how vile they are. Be they confounded also that worship them.\n26 Therefore if they fall to the ground, they rise not up again of themselves, nor if a man set them upright, will they stand by themselves, but their gifts shall be set before them, as to the dead.\n27 The things that are sacrificed to them, their priests sell and abuse: in like manner also their wives take part of them, but give nothing of it either to the sick, or to the poor.\n28 The childbearing and menstruous women touch their sacrifices: knowing therefore by these things that they are not gods, fear them not.\n29 For how can they be called gods? because women set offerings before the gods of silver, and of gold, and of wood:\n30 And priests sit in their temples, having their garments rent, and their heads and beards shaven, and nothing upon their heads.\n31 And they roar and cry before their gods, as men do at the feast when one is dead.\n32 The priests take away their garments, and clothe their wives and their children.\n33 And whether it be evil that one doth unto them, or good, they are not able to recompense it: neither can they set up a king nor put him down:\n34 In like manner they can neither give riches, nor requite evil. If a man make a vow to them, and perform it not, they cannot require it.\n35 They cannot deliver a man from death nor save the weak from the mighty.\n36 They cannot restore the blind man to his sight: nor deliver a man from distress.\n37 They shall not pity the widow, nor do good to the fatherless.\n38 Their gods, of wood, and of stone, and of gold, and of silver, are like the stones that are hewn out of the mountains: and they that worship them shall be confounded.\n39 How then is it to be supposed, or to be said, that they are gods?\n40 Even the Chaldeans themselves dishonour them: who when they hear of one dumb that cannot speak, they present him to Bel, entreating him, that he may speak,\n41 As though they could be sensible that have no motion themselves: and they, when they shall perceive this, will leave them: for their gods themselves have no sense.\n42 The women also with cords about them, sit in the ways, burning olive stones.\n43 And when any one of them, drawn away by some passenger, lieth with him, she upbraideth her neighbour, that she was not thought as worthy as herself, nor her cord broken.\n44 But all things that are done about them, are false: how is it then to be thought, or to be said, that they are gods?\n45 And they are made by workmen, and by goldsmiths. They shall be nothing else but what the priests will have them to be.\n46 For the artificers themselves that make them, are of no long continuance. Can those things then that are made by them be gods?\n47 But they have left false things and reproach to them that come after.\n48 For when war cometh upon them, or evils, the priests consult with themselves where they may hide themselves with them.\n49 How then can they be thought to be gods, that can neither deliver themselves from war, nor save themselves from evils?\n50 For seeing they are but of wood, and laid over with gold, and with silver, it shall be known hereafter that they are false things, by all nations and kings: and it shall be manifest that they are no gods, but the work of men's hands, and that there is no work of God in them.\n51 Whence therefore is it known that they are not gods, but the work of men's hands, and no work of God is in them?\n52 They cannot set up a king over the land, nor give rain to men.\n53 They determine no causes, nor deliver countries from oppression; because they can do nothing, and are as daws between heaven and earth.\n54 For when fire shall fall upon the house of these gods of wood, and of silver, and of gold, their priests indeed will flee away, and be saved: but they themselves shall be burnt in the midst like beams.\n55 And they cannot withstand a king and war. How then can it be supposed, or admitted that they are gods?\n56 Neither are these gods of wood, and of stone, and laid over with gold, and with silver, able to deliver themselves from thieves or robbers: they that are stronger than them\n57 Shall take from them the gold, and silver, and the raiment wherewith they are clothed, and shall go their way, neither shall they help themselves.\n58 Therefore it is better to be a king that sheweth his power: or else a profitable vessel in the house, with which the owner thereof will be well satisfied: or a door in the house, to keep things safe that are therein, than such false gods.\n59 The sun, and the moon, and the stars being bright, and sent forth for profitable uses, are obedient.\n60 In like manner the lightning, when it breaketh forth, is easy to be seen: and after the same manner the wind bloweth in every country.\n61 And the clouds when God commandeth them to go over the whole world, do that which is commanded them.\n62 The fire also being sent from above to consume mountains and woods, doth as it is commanded. But these neither in shew, nor in power are like to any one of them.\n63 Wherefore it is neither to be thought, nor to be said, that they are gods: since they are neither able to judge causes, nor to do any good to men.\n64 Knowing therefore that they are not gods, fear them not.\n65 For neither can they curse kings, nor bless them.\n66 Neither do they shew signs in the heaven to the nations, nor shine as the sun, nor give light as the moon.\n67 Beasts are better than they, which can fly under a covert, and help themselves.\n68 Therefore there is no manner of appearance that they are gods: so fear them not.\n69 For as a scarecrow in a garden of cucumbers keepeth nothing, so are their gods of wood, and of silver, and laid over with gold.\n70 They are no better than a white thorn in a garden, upon which every bird sitteth. In like manner also their gods of wood, and laid over with gold, and with silver, are like to a dead body cast forth in the dark.\n71 By the purple also and the scarlet which are motheaten upon them, you shall know that they are not gods.

Yet know this, that the kingdom of God is at hand.\n12 I say to you, it shall be more tolerable at that day for Sodom, than for that city.\n13 Woe to thee, Corozain, woe to thee, Bethsaida.

Yea, Father, for so it hath seemed good in thy sight.\n22 All things are delivered to me by my Father; and no one knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and to whom the Son will reveal him.\n23 And turning to his disciples, he said: Blessed are the eyes that see the things which you see.\n24 For I say to you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see the things that you see, and have not seen them; and to hear the things that you hear, and have not heard them.\n25 And behold a certain lawyer stood up, tempting him, and saying, Master, what must I do to possess eternal life?\n26 But he said to him: What is written in the law? how readest thou?\n27 He answering, said: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind: and thy neighbour as thyself.\n28 And he said to him: Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.\n29 But he willing to justify himself, said to Jesus: And who is my neighbour?\n30 And Jesus answering, said: A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, who also stripped him, and having wounded him went away, leaving him half dead.\n31 And it chanced, that a certain priest went down the same way: and seeing him, passed by.\n32 In like manner also a Levite, when he was near the place and saw him, passed by.\n33 But a certain Samaritan being on his journey, came near him; and seeing him, was moved with compassion.\n34 And going up to him, bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine: and setting him upon his own beast, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.\n35 And the next day he took out two pence, and gave to the host, and said: Take care of him; and whatsoever thou shalt spend over and above, I, at my return, will repay thee.\n36 Which of these three, in thy opinion, was neighbour to him that fell among the robbers?\n37 But he said: He that shewed mercy to him. And Jesus said to him: Go, and do thou in like manner.\n38 Now it came to pass as they went, that he entered into a certain town: and a certain woman named Martha, received him into her house.\n39 And she had a sister called Mary, who sitting also at the Lord's feet, heard his word.\n40 But Martha was busy about much serving. Who stood and said: Lord, hast thou no care that my sister hath left me alone to serve? speak to her therefore, that she help me.\n41 And the Lord answering, said to her: Martha, Martha, thou art careful, and art troubled about many things:\n42 But one thing is necessary.

But they said: What is that to us? look thou to it.\n5 And casting down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed: and went and hanged himself with an halter.\n6 But the chief priests having taken the pieces of silver, said: It is not lawful to put them into the corbona, because it is the price of blood.\n7 And after they had consulted together, they bought with them the potter's field, to be a burying place for strangers.\n8 For this cause the field was called Haceldama, that is, The field of blood, even to this day.\n9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremias the prophet, saying: And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was prized, whom they prized of the children of Israel.\n10 And they gave them unto the potter's field, as the Lord appointed to me.\n11 And Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, saying: Art thou the king of the Jews? Jesus saith to him: Thou sayest it.\n12 And when he was accused by the chief priests and ancients, he answered nothing.\n13 Then Pilate saith to him: Dost not thou hear how great testimonies they allege against thee?\n14 And he answered him to never a word; so that the governor wondered exceedingly.\n15 Now upon the solemn day the governor was accustomed to release to the people one prisoner, whom they would.\n16 And he had then a notorious prisoner, that was called Barabbas.\n17 They therefore being gathered together, Pilate said: Whom will you that I release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus that is called Christ?\n18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.\n19 And as he was sitting in the place of judgment, his wife sent to him, saying: Have thou nothing to do with that just man; for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.\n20 But the chief priests and ancients persuaded the people, that they should ask for Barabbas, and take Jesus away.\n21 And the governor answering, said to them: Whether will you of the two to be released unto you?

They say all: Let him be crucified.\n23 The governor said to them: Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying: Let him be crucified.\n24 And Pilate seeing that he prevailed nothing, but that rather a tumult was made; taking water washed his hands before the people, saying: I am innocent of the blood of this just man; look you to it.\n25 And the whole people answering, said: His blood be upon us and our children.\n26 Then he released to them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, delivered him unto them to be crucified.\n27 Then the soldiers of the governor taking Jesus into the hall, gathered together unto him the whole band;\n28 And stripping him, they put a scarlet cloak about him.\n29 And platting a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand.

And Samson said to his father: Take this woman for me, for she hath pleased my eyes.\n4 Now his parents knew not that the thing was done by the Lord, and that he sought an occasion against the Philistines: for at that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel.\n5 Then Samson went down with his father and mother to Thamnatha.

So he made a league with him, and let him go.\n35 Then a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his companion in the word of the Lord: Strike me.

For I have charged my young men, not to molest thee: and if thou art thirsty, go to the vessels, and drink of the waters whereof the servants drink.\n10 She fell on her face and worshipping upon the ground, said to him: Whence cometh this to me, that I should find grace before thy eyes, and that thou shouldst vouchsafe to take notice of me a woman of another country?\n11 And he answered her: All hath been told me, that thou hast done to thy mother in law after the death of thy husband: and how thou hast left thy parents, and the land wherein thou wast born, and art come to a people which thou knewest not heretofore.\n12 The Lord render unto thee for thy work, and mayest thou receive a full reward of the Lord the God of Israel, to whom thou art come, and under whose wings thou art fled.\n13 And she said: I have found grace in thy eyes, my lord, who hast comforted me and hast spoken to the heart of thy handmaid, who am not like to one of thy maids.\n14 And Booz said to her: At mealtime come thou hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. So she sat at the side of the reapers, and she heaped to herself frumenty, and ate and was filled, and took the leavings.\n15 And she arose from thence, to glean the ears of corn as before. And Booz commanded his servants, saying: If she would even reap with you, hinder her not:\n16 And let fall some of your handfuls of purpose, and leave them, that she may gather them without shame, and let no man rebuke her when she gathereth them.\n17 She gleaned therefore in the field till evening: and beating out with a rod and threshing what she had gleaned, she found about the measure of an ephi of barley, that is, three bushels:\n18 Which she took up and returned into the city, and shewed it to her mother in law: moreover she brought out, and gave her of the remains of her meat, wherewith she had been filled.\n19 And her mother in law said to her: Where hast thou gleaned to day, and where hast thou wrought? blessed be he that hath had pity on thee. And she told her with whom she had wrought: and she told the man's name, that he was called Booz.\n20 And Noemi answered her: Blessed be he of the Lord: because the same kindness which he shewed to the living, he hath kept also to the dead. And again she said: The man is our kinsman.\n21 And Ruth said, He also charged me, that I should keep close to his reapers, till all the corn should be reaped.\n22 And her mother in law said to her: It is better for thee, my daughter, to go out to reap with his maids, lest in another man's field some one may resist thee.\n23 So she kept close to the maids of Booz: and continued to glean with them, till all the barley and the wheat were laid up in the barns.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the bible does it say \"For mercy and wrath quickly come from him, and his wrath looketh upon sinners.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The text \"For mercy and wrath quickly come from him, and his wrath looketh upon sinners.\" is part of Sirach chapter 5, verse 7 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "In what book, at what chapter and verse, does \"And behold my brook became a great river, and my river came near to a sea:\" appear?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"And behold my brook became a great river, and my river came near to a sea:\" is written in Sirach 24:43, within the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" } ]

For sittest thou to judge me according to the law, and contrary to the law commandest me to be struck?\n4 And they that stood by said: Dost thou revile the high priest of God?\n5 And Paul said: I knew not, brethren, that he is the high priest. For it is written: Thou shalt not speak evil of the prince of thy people.\n6 And Paul knowing that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, cried out in the council: Men, brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of Pharisees: concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question.\n7 And when he had so said, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees; and the multitude was divided.\n8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both.\n9 And there arose a great cry. And some of the Pharisees rising up, strove, saying: We find no evil in this man. What if a spirit hath spoken to him, or an angel?\n10 And when there arose a great dissension, the tribune fearing lest Paul should be pulled in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down, and to take him by force from among them, and to bring him into the castle.\n11 And the night following the Lord standing by him, said: Be constant; for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness also at Rome.\n12 And when day was come, some of the Jews gathered together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying, that they would neither eat, nor drink, till they killed Paul.\n13 And they were more than forty men that had made this conspiracy.\n14 Who came to the chief priests and the ancients, and said: We have bound ourselves under a great curse that we will eat nothing till we have slain Paul.\n15 Now therefore do you with the council signify to the tribune, that he bring him forth to you, as if you meant to know something more certain touching him. And we, before he come near, are ready to kill him.\n16 Which when Paul's sister's son had heard, of their lying in wait, he came and entered into the castle and told Paul.\n17 And Paul, calling to him one of the centurions, said: Bring this young man to the tribune, for he hath some thing to tell him.\n18 And he taking him, brought him to the tribune, and said: Paul, the prisoner, desired me to bring this young man unto thee, who hath some thing to say to thee.\n19 And the tribune taking him by the hand, went aside with him privately, and asked him: What is it that thou hast to tell me?\n20 And he said: The Jews have agreed to desire thee, that thou wouldst bring forth Paul to morrow into the council, as if they meant to inquire some thing more certain touching him.\n21 But do not thou give credit to them; for there lie in wait for him more than forty men of them, who have bound themselves by oath neither to eat, nor to drink, till they have killed him: and they are now ready, looking for a promise from thee.\n22 The tribune therefore dismissed the young man, charging him that he should tell no man, that he had made known these things unto him.\n23 Then having called two centurions, he said to them: Make ready two hundred soldiers to go as far as Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen for the third hour of the night:\n24 And provide beasts, that they may set Paul on, and bring him safe to Felix the governor.\n25 (For he feared lest perhaps the Jews might take him away by force and kill him, and he should afterwards be slandered, as if he was to take money.)

And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: Inquire, I beseech thee, this day, the word of the Lord.\n6 Then the king of Israel assembled the prophets, about four hundred men, and he said to them: Shall I go to Ramoth Galaad to fight, or shall I forbear? They answered: Go up, and the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king.\n7 And Josaphat said: Is there not here some prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire by him?\n8 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: There is one man left, by whom we may inquire of the Lord: Micheas the son of Jemla; but I hate him, for he doth not prophesy good to me, but evil. And Josaphat said: Speak not so, O king.\n9 Then the king of Israel called an eunuch, and said to him: Make haste, and bring hither Micheas the son of Jemla.\n10 Then the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda, sat each on his throne clothed with royal robes, in a court by the entrance of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets prophesied before them.\n11 And Sedecias the son of Chanaana made himself horns of iron, and said: Thus saith the Lord: With these shalt thou push Syria, till thou destroy it.\n12 And all the prophets prophesied in like manner, saying: Go up to Ramoth Galaad, and prosper, for the Lord will deliver it into the king's hands.\n13 And the messenger, that went to call Micheas, spoke to him, saying: Behold the words of the prophets with one mouth declare good things to the king: let thy word therefore be like to theirs, and speak that which is good.\n14 But Micheas said to him: As the Lord liveth, whatsoever the Lord shall say to me, that will I speak.\n15 So he came to the king, and the king said to him: Micheas, shall we go to Ramoth Galaad to battle, or shall we forbear? He answered him: Go up, and prosper, and the Lord shall deliver it into the king's hands.\n16 But the king said to him: I adjure thee again and again, that thou tell me nothing but that which is true in the name of the Lord.\n17 And he said: I saw all Israel scattered upon the hills, like sheep that have no shepherd: and the Lord said: These have no master: let every man of them return to his house in peace.\n18 (Then the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Did I not tell thee, that he prophesieth no good to me, but always evil?)\n19 And he added and said: Hear thou therefore the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on the right hand and on the left:\n20 And the Lord said: Who shall deceive Achab king of Israel, that he may go up, and fall at Ramoth Galaad? And one spoke words of this manner, and another otherwise.\n21 And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said: I will deceive him. And the Lord said to him: By what means?\n22 And he said: I will go forth, and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And the Lord said: Thou shalt deceive him, and shalt prevail: a go forth, and do so.\n23 Now therefore behold the Lord hath given a lying spirit in the mouth of all thy prophets that are here, and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee.\n24 And Sedecias the son of Chanaana came, and struck Micheas on the cheek, and said: Hath then the spirit of the Lord left me, and spoken to thee?\n25 And Micheas said: Thou shalt see in the day when thou shalt go into a chamber within a chamber to hide thyself.\n26 And the king of Israel said: Take Micheas, and let him abide with Ammon the governor of the city, and with Joas the son of Amalech.\n27 And tell them: Thus saith the king: Put this man in prison, and feed him with bread of affliction, and water of distress, till I return in peace.\n28 And Micheas said: If thou return in peace, the Lord hath not spoken by me.

If they spare us, we shall live: but if they kill us, we shall but die.\n5 So they arose in the evening, to go to the Syrian camp, And when they were come to the first part of the camp of the Syrians, they found no man there.\n6 For the Lord had made them hear, in the camp of Syria, the noise of chariots, and of horses, and of a very great army, and they said one to another: Behold the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hethites, and of the Egyptians, and they are come upon us.\n7 Wherefore they arose, and fled away in the dark, and left their tents, and their horses and asses in the camp, and fled, desiring to save their lives.\n8 So when these lepers were come to the beginning of the camp, they went into one tent, and ate and drank: and they took from thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went, and hid it: and they came again, and went into another tent, and carried from thence in like manner, and hid it.\n9 Then they said one to another: We do not well: for this is a day of good tidings.

fled by the way that leadeth to the plains of the wilderness.\n5 And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all the warriors that were with him were scattered, and left him:\n6 So they took the king, and brought him to the king of Babylon to Reblatha, and he gave judgment upon him.\n7 And he slew the sons of Sedecias before his face, and he

But he looking upon the king,\n16 Said: Whereas thou hast power among men, though thou art corruptible, thou dost what thou wilt: but think not that our nation is forsaken by God.\n17 But stay patiently a while, and thou shalt see his great power, in what manner he will torment thee and thy seed.\n18 After him they brought the sixth, and he being ready to die, spoke thus: Be not deceived without cause: for we suffer these things for ourselves, having sinned against our God, and things worthy of admiration are done to us:\n19 But do not think that thou shalt escape unpunished, for that thou attempted to fight against God.\n20 Now the mother was to be admired above measure, and worthy to be remembered by good men, who beheld seven sons slain in the space of one day, and bore it with a good courage, for the hope that she had in God:\n21 And she bravely exhorted every one of them in her own language, being filled with wisdom: and joining a man's heart to a woman's thought,\n22 She said to them: I know not how you were formed in my womb: for I neither gave you breath, nor soul, nor life, neither did I frame the limbs of every one of you.\n23 But the Creator of the world, that formed the nativity of man, and that found out the origin of all, he will restore to you again in his mercy, both breath and life, as now you despise yourselves for the sake of his laws.\n24 Now Antiochus, thinking himself despised, and withal despising the voice of the upbraider, when the youngest was yet alive, did not only exhort him by words, but also assured him with an oath, that he would make him a rich and a happy man, and, if he would turn from the laws of his fathers, would take him for a friend, and furnish him with things necessary.\n25 But when the young man was not moved with these things, the king called the mother, and counselled her to deal with the young man to save his life.\n26 And when he had exhorted her with many words, she promised that she would counsel her son.\n27 So bending herself towards him, mocking the cruel tyrant, she said in her own language: My son, have pity upon me, that bore thee nine months in my womb, and gave thee suck three years, and nourished thee, and brought thee up unto this age.\n28 I beseech thee, my son, look upon heaven and earth, and all that is in them: and consider that God made them out of nothing, and mankind also:\n29 So thou shalt not fear this tormentor, but being made a worthy partner with thy brethren, receive death, that in that mercy I may receive thee again with thy brethren.\n30 While she was yet speaking these words, the young man said: For whom do you stay? I will not obey the commandment of the king, but the commandment of the law, which was given us by Moses.\n31 But thou that hast been the author of all mischief against the Hebrews, shalt not escape the hand of God.\n32 For we suffer thus for our sins.\n33 And though the Lord our God is angry with us a little while for our chastisement and correction: yet he will be reconciled again to his servants.\n34 But thou, O wicked and of all men most flagitious, be not lifted up without cause with vain hopes, whilst thou art raging against his servants.\n35 For thou hast not yet escaped the judgment of the almighty God, who beholdeth all things.\n36 For my brethren, having now undergone a short pain, are under the covenant of eternal life: but thou by the judgment of God shalt receive just punishment for thy pride.\n37 But I, like my brethren, offer up my life and my body for the laws of our fathers: calling upon God to be speedily merciful to our nation, and that thou by torments and stripes mayst confess that he alone is God.\n38 But in me and in my brethren the wrath of the Almighty, which hath justly been brought upon all our nation, shall cease.\n39 Then the king being incensed with anger, raged against him more cruelly than all the rest, taking it grievously that he was mocked.\n40 So this man also died undefiled, wholly trusting in the Lord.\n41 And last of all after the sons the mother also was consumed.\n42 But now there is enough said of the sacrifices, and of the excessive cruelties.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the reference (book, chapter, verse) for \"For I know that the people will not hear me, for they are a people of a stiff neck: but they shall turn to their heart in the land of their captivity:\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"For I know that the people will not hear me, for they are a people of a stiff neck: but they shall turn to their heart in the land of their captivity:\" is written in Baruch 2:30, within the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Ezekiel, chapter 16, verse 47 - what does it say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Ezekiel 16:47 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"But neither hast thou walked in their ways, nor hast thou done a little less than they according to their wickednesses: thou hast done almost more wicked things than they in all thy ways.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"Because it shut not up the doors of the womb that bore me, nor took away evils from my eyes.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of Job, chapter 3.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\nJob Chapter 3\n1 After this Job opened his mouth, and cursed his day,\n2 And he said:\n3 Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said: A man child is conceived.\n4 Let that day be turned into darkness, let not God regard it from above, and let not the light shine upon it.\n5 Let darkness, and the shadow of death cover it, let a mist overspread it, and let it be wrapped up in bitterness.\n6 Let a darksome whirlwind seize upon that night, let it not be counted in the days of the year, nor numbered in the months.\n7 Let that night be solitary, and not worthy of praise.\n8 Let them curse it who curse the day. who are ready to raise up a leviathan:\n9 Let the stars be darkened with the mist thereof: let it expect light and not see it, nor the rising of the dawning of the day:\n10 Because it shut not up the doors of the womb that bore me, nor took away evils from my eyes.\n11 Why did I not die in the womb, why did I not perish when I came out of the belly?\n12 Why received upon the knees?

that Nicanor and his army were fallen in battle, he sent again Bacchides and Alcimus into Judea; and the right wing of his army with them.\n2 And they took the road that leadeth to Galgal, and they camped in Masaloth, which is in Arabella: and they made themselves masters of it, and slew many people.\n3 In the first month of the hundred and fifty-second year they brought the army to Jerusalem:\n4 And they arose, and went to Berea with twenty thousand men, and two thousand horsemen.\n5 Now Judas had pitched his tents in Laisa, and three thousand chosen men with him:\n6 And they saw the multitude of the army that they were many, and they were seized with great fear: and many withdrew themselves out of the camp, and there remained of them no more than eight hundred men.\n7 And Judas saw that his army slipped away, and the battle pressed upon him, and his heart was cast down: because he had not time to gather them together, and he was discouraged.\n8 Then he said to them that remained: Let us arise, and go against our enemies, if we may be able to fight against them.\n9 But they dissuaded him, saying: We shall not be able, but let us save our lives now, and return to our brethren, and then we will fight against them: for we are but few.\n10 Then Judas said: God forbid we should do this thing, and flee away from them: but if our time be come, let us die manfully for our brethren, and let us not stain our glory.\n11 And the army removed out of the camp, and they stood over against them: and the horsemen were divided into two troops, and the slingers, and the archers went before the army, and they that were in the front were all men of valour.\n12 And Bacchides was in the right wing, and the legion drew near on two sides, and they sounded the trumpets:\n13 And they also were on Judas' side, even they also cried out, and the earth shook at the noise of the armies: and the battle was fought from morning even unto the evening.\n14 And Judas perceived that the stronger part of the army of Bacchides was on the right side, and all the stout of heart came together with him:\n15 And the right wing was discomfited by them, and he pursued them even to the mount Azotus.\n16 And they that were in the left wing saw that the right wing was discomfited, and they followed after Judas, and them that were with him, at their back:\n17 And the battle was hard fought, and there fell many wounded of the one side and of the other.\n18 And Judas was slain, and the rest fled away.\n19 And Jonathan and Simon took Judas their brother, and buried him in the sepulchre of their fathers in the city of Modin.\n20 And all the people of Israel bewailed him with great lamentation, and they mourned for him many days.\n21 And said: How is the mighty man fallen, that saved the people of Israel!\n22 But the rest of the words of the wars of Judas, and of the noble acts that he did, and of his greatness, are not written: for they were very many.\n23 And it came to pass after the death of Judas, that the wicked began to put forth their heads in all the confines of Israel, and all the workers of iniquity rose up.\n24 In those days there was a very great famine, and they and all their country yielded to Bacchides.\n25 And Bacchides chose the wicked men, and made them lords of the country:\n26 And they sought out, and made diligent search after the friends of Judas, and brought them to Bacchides, and he took vengeance of them, and abused them.\n27 And there was a great tribulation in Israel, such as was not since the day, that there was no prophet seen in Israel.\n28 And all the friends of Judas came together, and said to Jonathan:\n29 Since thy brother Judas died, there is not a man like him to go forth against our enemies, Bacchides, and them that are the enemies of our nation.\n30 Now therefore we have chosen thee this day to be our prince, and captain in his stead to fight our battles.\n31 So Jonathan took upon him the government at that time, and rose up in the place of Judas his brother.\n32 And Bacchides had knowledge of it, and sought to kill him.\n33 And Jonathan and Simon his brother, knew it, and all that were with them: and they fled into the desert of Thecua, and they pitched by the water of the lake of Asphar,\n34 And Bacchides understood it, and he came himself with all his army over the Jordan on the sabbath day.\n35 And Jonathan sent his brother a captain of the people, to desire the Nabutheans his friends, that they would lend them their equipage, which was copious.\n36 And the children of Jambri came forth out of Madaba, and took John, and all that he had, and went away with them.\n37 After this it was told Jonathan, and Simon his brother, that the children of Jambri made a great marriage, and were bringing the bride out of Madaba, the daughter of one of the great princes of Chanaan, with great pomp.\n38 And the remembered the blood of John their brother: and they went up, and hid themselves under the covert of the mountain.\n39 And they lifted up their eyes, and saw: and behold a tumult, and great preparation: and the bridegroom came forth, and his friends, and his brethren to meet them with timbrels, and musical instruments, and many weapons.\n40 And they rose up against them from the place where they lay in ambush, and slew them, and there fell many wounded, and the rest fled into the mountains, and they took all their spoils:\n41 And the marriage was turned into mourning, and the noise of their musical instruments into lamentation.\n42 And they took revenge for the blood of their brother: and they returned to the bank of the Jordan.\n43 And Bacchides heard it, and he came on the sabbath day even to the bank of the Jordan with a great power.\n44 And Jonathan said to his company: Let us arise, and fight against our enemies: for it is not now as yesterday, and the day before.\n45 And behold the battle is before us, and the water of the Jordan on this side and on that side, and banks, and marshes, and woods: and there is no place for us to turn aside.\n46 Now therefore cry ye to heaven, that ye may be delivered from the hand of your enemies. And they joined battle.\n47 And Jonathan stretched forth his hand to strike Bacchides, but he turned away from him backwards.\n48 And Jonathan, and they that were with him leaped into the Jordan, and swam over the Jordan to them:\n49 And there fell of Bacchides' side that day a thousand men: and they returned to Jerusalem,\n50 And they built strong cities in Judea, the fortress that was in Jericho, and in Ammaus, and in Bethoron, and in Bethel, and Thamnata, and Phara, and Thopo, with high walls, and gates, and bars.\n51 And he placed garrisons in them, that they might wage war against Israel:\n52 And he fortified the city of Bethsura, and Gazara, and the castle, and set garrisons in them, and provisions of victuals:\n53 And he took the sons of the chief men of the country for hostages, and put them in the castle in Jerusalem in custody.\n54 Now in the year one hundred and fifty-three, the second month, Alcimus commanded the walls of the inner court of the sanctuary to be thrown down, and the works of the prophets to be destroyed: and he began to be destroyed: and he began to destroy.\n55 At that time Alcimus was struck: and his works were hindered, and his mouth was stopped, and he was taken with a palsy, so that he could no more speak a word, nor give order concerning his house.\n56 And Alcimus died at that time in great torment.\n57 And Bacchides saw that Alcimus was dead: and he returned to the king, and the land was quiet for two years.\n58 And all the wicked held a council, saying: Behold Jonathan, and they that are with him, dwell at ease, and without fear: now therefore let us bring Bacchides hither, and he shall take them all in one night.\n59 So they went, and gave him counsel.\n60 And he arose to come with a great army: and he sent secretly letters to his adherents that were in Judea, to seize upon Jonathan, and them that were with him: but they could not, for their design was known to them.\n61 And he apprehended of the men of the country, that were the principal authors of the mischief, fifty men, and slew them.\n62 And Jonathan, and Simon, and they that were with him retired into Bethbessen, which is in the desert: and he repaired the breaches thereof, and they fortified it.\n63 And when Bacchides knew it, he gathered together all his multitude: and sent word to them that were of Judea.\n64 And he came, and camped above Bethbessen, and fought against it many days, and made engines.\n65 But Jonathan left his brother Simon in the city, and went forth into the country: and came with a number of men.\n66 And struck Odares, and his brethren, and the children of Phaseron in their tents, and he began to slay, and to increase in forces.\n67 But Simon and they that were with him, sallied out of the city, and burnt the engines.\n68 And they fought against Bacchides, and he was discomfited by them: and they afflicted him exceedingly, for his counsel, and his enterprise was in vain.\n69 And he was angry with the wicked men that had given him counsel to come into their country, and he slew many of them: and he purposed to return with the rest into their country.\n70 And Jonathan had knowledge of it, and he sent ambassadors to him to make peace with him, and to restore to him the prisoners.\n71 And he accepted it willingly, and did according to his words, and swore that he would do him no harm all the days of his life.\n72 And he restored to him the prisoners which he before had taken out of the land of Juda: and he returned and went away into his own country, and he came no more into their borders.\n73 So the sword ceased from Israel: and Jonathan dwelt in Machmas, and Jonathan began there to judge the people, and he destroyed the wicked out of Israel.\n", "role": "assistant" }, {

And they filled them up to the brim.\n8 And Jesus saith to them: Draw out now, and carry to the chief steward of the feast.

But thou hast kept the good wine until now.\n11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee; and manifested his glory, and his disciples believed in him.\n12 After this he went down to Capharnaum, he and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: and they remained there not many days.\n13 And the pasch of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.\n14 And he found in the temple them that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting.\n15 And when he had made, as it were, a scourge of little cords, he drove them all out of the temple, the sheep also and the oxen, and the money of the changers he poured out, and the tables he overthrew.\n16 And to them that sold doves he said: Take these things hence, and make not the house of my Father a house of traffic.\n17 And his disciples remembered, that it was written: The zeal of thy house hath eaten me up.\n18 The Jews, therefore, answered, and said to him: What sign dost thou shew unto us, seeing thou dost these things?\n19 Jesus answered, and said to them: Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.\n20 The Jews then said: Six and forty years was this temple in building; and wilt thou raise it up in three days?\n21 But he spoke of the temple of his body.\n22 When therefore he was risen again from the dead, his disciples remembered, that he had said this, and they believed the scripture, and the word that Jesus had said.\n23 Now when he was at Jerusalem, at the pasch, upon the festival day, many believed in his name, seeing his signs which he did.\n24 But Jesus did not trust himself unto them, for that he knew all men,\n25 And because he needed not that any should give testimony of man: for he knew what was in man.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Recite Nehemiah 7:49", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Nehemiah 7:49 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"The children of Hanan, the children of Geddel, the children of Gaher,\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Psalm 41:6 please", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From the Old Testament, in Psalm 41:6 (Douay Rheims), we read:\n\"Why art thou sad, O my soul? and why dost thou trouble me?

go up that is armed with a coat of mail: spare not her young men, destroy all her army.\n4 And the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans, and the wounded in the regions thereof.\n5 For Israel and Juda have not been forsaken by their God the Lord of hosts: but their land hath been filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel.\n6 Flee ye from the midst of Babylon, and let every one save his own life: be not silent upon her iniquity: for it is the time of revenge from the Lord, he will I render unto her what she hath deserved.\n7 Babylon hath been a golden cup in the hand of the Lord, that made all the earth drunk: the nations have drunk of her wine, and therefore they have staggered.\n8 Babylon is suddenly fallen, and destroyed: howl for her, take balm for her pain, if so she may be healed.\n9 We would have cured Babylon, but she is not healed: let us forsake her, and let us go every man to his own land: because her judgment hath reached even to the heavens, and is lifted up to the clouds.\n10 The Lord hath brought forth our justices: Come, and let us declare in Sion the work of the Lord our God.\n11 Sharpen the arrows, fill the quivers, the Lord hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: and his mind is against Babylon to destroy it, because it is the vengeance of the Lord, the vengeance of his temple.\n12 Upon the walls of Babylon set up the standard, strengthen the watch: set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the Lord hath both purposed, and done all that he spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon.\n13 O thou that dwellest upon many waters, rich in treasures, thy end is come for thy entire destruction.\n14 The Lord of hosts hath sworn by himself, saying: I will fill thee with men as with locusts, and they shall lift up a joyful shout against thee.\n15 He that made the earth by his power, that hath prepared the world by his wisdom, and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.\n16 When he uttereth his voice the waters are multiplied in heaven: he lifteth up the clouds from the ends of the earth, he hath turned lightning into rain: and hath brought forth the wind out of his treasures.\n17 Every man is become foolish

will set them drink: and I will make them drunk, that they may slumber, and sleep an everlasting sleep, and awake no more, saith the Lord.\n40 I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, and

Where are his miracles, which our fathers have told us of, saying: The Lord brought us Out of Egypt? but now the Lord hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the bands of Madian.\n14 And the Lord looked upon him, and said: Go in this thy strength, and thou shalt deliver Israel out of the hand of Madian: know that I have sent thee.\n15 He answered and said: I beseech thee, my lord, wherewith shall I deliver Israel? Behold my family is the meanest in Manasses, and I am the least in my father's house.\n16 And the Lord said to him: I will be with thee: and thou shalt cut off Madian as one man.\n17 And he said: If I have found grace before thee, give me a sign that it is thou that speakest to me,\n18 And depart not hence, till I return to thee, and bring a sacrifice, and offer it to thee.

But fearing his father's house, and the men of that city, he would not do it by day, but did all by night.\n28 And when the men of that town were risen in the morning, they saw the altar of Baal destroyed, and the grove cut down, and the second bullock laid upon the altar, which then was built.\n29 And they said one to another: Who hath done this? And when they inquired for the author of the fact, it was said: Gedeon the son of Joas did all this.\n30 And they said to Joas: Bring out thy son hither, that he may die: because he hath destroyed the altar of Baal, and hath cut down his grove.\n31 He answered them: Are you the avengers of Baal, that you fight for him? he that is his adversary, let him die before to morrow light appear: if he be a god, let him revenge himself on him that hath cast down his altar.\n32 From that day Gedeon was called Jerobaal, because Joss had said: Let Baal revenge himself on him that hath cast down his altar.\n33 Now all Madian, and Amalec, and the eastern people were gathered together, and passing over the Jordan, camped in the valley of Jezrael.\n34 But the spirit of the Lord came upon Gedeon, and be sounded the trumpet and called together the house of Abiezer, to follow him.\n35 And he sent messengers into all Manasses, and they also followed him: and other messengers into Aser and Zabulon and Nephtali, and they came to meet him.\n36 And Gedeon said to God: If thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as thou hast said,\n37 I will put this fleece of wool on the floor: if there be dew on the fleece only, and it be dry on all the ground beside, I, shall know that by my hand, as thou hast said, thou wilt deliver Israel.\n38 And it was so.

And in like manner the husband also hath not power of his own body, but the wife.\n5 Defraud not one another, except, perhaps, by consent, for a time, that you may give yourselves to prayer; and return together again, lest Satan tempt you for your incontinency.\n6 But I speak this by indulgence, not by commandment.\n7 For I would that all men were even as myself: but every one hath his proper gift from God; one after this manner, and another after that.\n8 But I say to the unmarried, and to the widows: It is good for them if they so continue, even as I.\n9 But if they do not contain themselves, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to be burnt.\n10 But to them that are married, not I but the Lord commandeth, that the wife depart not from her husband.\n11 And if she depart, that she remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband. And let not the husband put away his wife.\n12 For to the rest I speak, not the Lord. If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she consent to dwell with him, let him not put her away.\n13 And if any woman hath a husband that believeth not, and he consent to dwell with her, let her not put away her husband.\n14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the believing wife; and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the believing husband: otherwise your children should be unclean; but now they are holy.\n15 But if the unbeliever depart, let him depart. For a brother or sister is not under servitude in such cases. But God hath called us in peace.\n16 For how knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? Or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?\n17 But as the Lord hath distributed to every one, as God hath called every one, so let him walk: and so in all churches I teach.\n18 Is any man called, being circumcised? let him not procure uncircumcision. Is any man called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.\n19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing: but the observance of the commandments of God.\n20 Let every man abide in the same calling in which he was called.\n21 Wast thou called, being a bondman? care not for it; but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.\n22 For he that is called in the Lord, being a bondman, is the freeman of the Lord. Likewise he that is called, being free, is the bondman of Christ.\n23 You are bought with a price; be not made the bondslaves of men.\n24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he was called, therein abide with God.\n25 Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord; but I give counsel, as having obtained mercy of the Lord, to be faithful.\n26 I think therefore that this is good for the present necessity, that it is good for a man so to be.\n27 Art thou bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.\n28 But if thou take a wife, thou hast not sinned. And if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned: nevertheless, such shall have tribulation of the flesh. But I spare you.\n29 This therefore I say, brethren; the time is short; it remaineth, that they also who have wives, be as if they had none;\n30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as if they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;\n31 And they that use this world, as if they used it not: for the fashion of this world passeth away.\n32 But I would have you to be without solicitude. He that is without a wife, is solicitous for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please God.\n33 But he that is with a wife, is solicitous for the things of the world, how he may please his wife: and he is divided.\n34 And the unmarried woman and the virgin thinketh on the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she that is married thinketh on the things of the world, how she may please her husband.\n35 And this I speak for your profit: not to cast a snare upon you; but for that which is decent, and which may give you power to attend upon the Lord, without impediment.\n36 But if any man think that he seemeth dishonoured, with regard to his virgin, for that she is above the age, and it must so be: let him do what he will; he sinneth not, if she marry.\n37 For he that hath determined being steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but having power of his own will; and hath judged this in his heart, to keep his virgin, doth well.\n38 Therefore, both he that giveth his virgin in marriage, doth well; and he that giveth her not, doth better.\n39 A woman is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband die, she is at liberty: let her marry to whom she will; only in the Lord.\n40 But more blessed shall she be, if she so remain, according to my counsel; and I think that I also have the spirit of God.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Recite Acts 10:7", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The New Testament\nActs 10:7 (Douay Rheims)\n\"And when the angel who spoke to him was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a soldier who feared the Lord, of them that were under him.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where exactly in the Bible is \"And the ends of the chains themselves thou shalt join together with two hooks on both sides of the ephod, which is towards the rational.\" written?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"And the ends of the chains themselves thou shalt join together with two hooks on both sides of the ephod, which is towards the rational.\" appears in Exodus, chapter 28, at verse 25 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"For thou hast cast off thy people, the house of Jacob: because they are filled as in times past, and have had soothsayers as the Philistines, and have adhered to strange children.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of Isaiah, chapter 2, verse 6 of the Old Testament, you'll find \"For thou hast cast off thy people, the house of Jacob: because they are filled as in times past, and have had soothsayers as the Philistines, and have adhered to strange children.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- Book: Isaiah\n- Chapter: 30\n- Verse: 17", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at Isaiah 30:17 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"A thousand men shall flee for fear of one: and for fear of five shall you flee, till you be left as the mast of a ship on the top of a mountain, and as an ensign upon a hill.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you provide the book, chapter, and verse for \"Behold, all the partakers thereof shall be confounded: for the makers are men: they shall all assemble together, they shall stand and fear, and shall be confounded together.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Bible, the verse \"Behold, all the partakers thereof shall be confounded: for the makers are men: they shall all assemble together, they shall stand and fear, and shall be confounded together.\" can be found in the book of Isaiah, chapter 44, verse 11 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "In what book, at what chapter and verse, does \"But I and the rest of the multitude which is with me; will approach on the contrary side against the city.

Therefore it is lawful to do a good deed on the sabbath days.\n13 Then he saith to the man: Stretch forth thy hand; and he stretched it forth, and it was restored to health even as the other.\n14 And the Pharisees going out made a consultation against him, how they might destroy him.\n15 But Jesus knowing it, retired from thence: and many followed him, and he healed them all.\n16 And he charged them that they should not make him known.\n17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaias the prophet, saying:\n18 Behold my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom my soul hath been well pleased.

And as they were preparing, there came upon him an ecstasy of mind.\n11 And he saw the heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending, as it were a great linen sheet let down by the four corners from heaven to the earth:\n12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts, and creeping things of the earth, and fowls of the air.\n13 And there came a voice to him: Arise, Peter; kill and eat.\n14 But Peter said: Far be it from me; for I never did eat any thing that is common and unclean.\n15 And the voice spoke to him again the second time: That which God hath cleansed, do not thou call common.\n16 And this was done thrice; and presently the vessel was taken up into heaven.\n17 Now, whilst Peter was doubting within himself, what the vision that he had seen should mean, behold the men who were sent from Cornelius, inquiring for Simon's house, stood at the gate.\n18 And when they had called, they asked, if Simon, who is surnamed Peter, were lodged there.\n19 And as Peter was thinking of the vision, the Spirit said to him: Behold three men seek thee.\n20 Arise, therefore, get thee down and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.\n21 Then Peter, going down to the men, said: Behold, I am he whom you seek; what is the cause for which you are come?\n22 Who said: Cornelius, a centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and having good testimony from all the nation of the Jews, received an answer of an holy angel, to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.\n23 Then bringing them in, he lodged them.
