For thy God helpeth thee. So David received them, and made them captains of the band.\n19 And there were some of Manasses that went over to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to fight: but he did not fight with them: because the lords of the Philistines taking counsel sent him back, saying: With the danger of our heads he will return to his master Saul.\n20 So when he went back to Siceleg, there fled to him of Manasses, Ednas and Jozabad, and Jedihel, and Michael, and Ednas, and Jozabad, and Eliu, and Salathi, captains of thousands in Manasses.\n21 These helped David against the rovers: for they were all most valiant men, and were made commanders in the army.\n22 Moreover day by day there came some to David to help him till they became a great number, like the army of God.\n23 And this is the number of the chiefs of the army who came to David, when he was in Hebron, to transfer to him the kingdom of Saul, according to the word of the Lord.\n24 The sons of Juda bearing shield and spear, six thousand eight hundred well appointed to war.\n25 Of the sons of Simeon valiant men for war, seven thousand one hundred.\n26 Of the sons of Levi, four thousand six hundred.\n27 And Joiada prince of the race of Aaron, and with him three thousand seven hundred.\n28 Sadoc also a young man of excellent disposition, and the house of his father, twenty-two principal men.\n29 And of the sons of Benjamin the brethren of Saul, three thousand: for hitherto a great part of them followed the house of Saul.\n30 And of the sons of Ephraim twenty thousand eight hundred, men of great valour renowned in their kindreds.\n31 And of the half tribe of Manasses, eighteen thousand, every one by their names, came to make David king.\n32 Also of the sons of Issachar men of understanding, that knew all times to order what Israel should do, two hundred principal men: and all the rest of the tribe followed their counsel.\n33 And of Zabulon such as went forth to battle, and stood in array well appointed with armour for war, there came fifty thousand to his aid, with no double heart.\n**34 And of Nephtali, a thousand leaders: and with them seven and thirty thousand, furnished with shield and spear.**\n35 Of Dan also twenty-eight thousand six hundred prepared for battle.\n36 And of Aser forty thousand going forth to fight, and challenging in battle.\n37 And on the other side of the Jordan of the sons of Ruben, and of Gad, and of the half of the tribe of Manasses a hundred and twenty thousand, furnished with arms for war.\n38 All these men of war well appointed to fight, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel: and all the rest also of Israel, were of one heart to make David king.\n39 And they were there with David three days eating and drinking: for their brethren had prepared for them.\n40 Moreover they that were near them even as far as Issachar, and Zabulon, and Nephtali, brought leaves on asses, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen, to eat: meal, figs, raisins, wine, oil, and oxen, and sheep in abundance, for there was joy in Israel.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"For as the body is one, and hath many members; and all the members of the body, whereas they are many, yet are one body, so also is Christ.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from *1 Corinthians*, chapter *12*.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\n*1 Corinthians Chapter 12*\n1 Now concerning spiritual things, my brethren, I would not have you ignorant.\n2 You know that when you were heathens, you went to dumb idols, according as you were led.\n3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man, speaking by the Spirit of God, saith Anathema to Jesus.

And the king stood by the gate: and all the people went forth by their troops, by hundreds and by thousands.\n5 And the king commanded Joab, and Abisai, and Ethai, saying: Save me the boy Absalom. And all the people heard the king giving charge to all the princes concerning Absalom.\n6 So the people went out into the field against Israel and the battle was fought in the forest of Ephraim.\n7 And the people of Israel were defeated there by David's army, and a great slaughter was made that day of twenty thousand men.\n8 And the battle there was scattered over the face of all the country, and there were many more of the people whom the forest consumed, than whom the sword devoured that day.\n9 And it happened that Absalom met the servants of David, riding on a mule: and as the mule went under a thick and large oak, his head stuck in the oak: and while he hung between the heaven and the earth, the mule on which he rode passed on.\n10 And one saw this and told Joab, saying: I saw Absalom hanging upon an oak.\n11 And Joab said to the man that told him: If thou sawest him, why didst thou not stab him to the ground, and I would have given thee ten sicles of silver, and belt?\n12 And he said to Joab: If thou wouldst have paid down in my hands a thousand pieces of silver, I would not lay my hands upon the king's son: for in our hearing he king charged thee, and Abisai, and Ethai, saying: Save me the boy Absalom.\n13 Yea and if I should have acted boldly against my own life, this could not have been hid from the king, and wouldst thou have stood by me?\n14 And Joab said: Not as thou wilt, but will set upon him in thy sight. So he took three lances in his hand, and thrust them into the heart of Absalom: and whilst he yet panted for life, sticking on the oak,\n15 Ten young men, armourbearers of Joab, ran up, and striking him slew him.\n16 And Joab sounded the trumpet, and kept back the people from pursuing after Israel in their flight, being willing to spare he multitude.\n17 And they took Absalom, and cast him into a great pit in the forest, and they laid an exceeding great heap of stories upon him: but all Israel fled to their own dwellings.\n18 Now Absalom had reared up for himself, in his lifetime, a pillar, which is in the king's valley: for he said: I have no son, and this shall be the monument of my name. And he called the pillar by is own name, and it is called the hand of Absalom, to this day.\n19 And Achimaas the son of Sadoc said: I will run and tell the king, that the Lord hath done judgment for him from the hand of his enemies.\n**20 And Joab said to him: Thou shalt not be the messenger this day, but shalt bear tidings another day: this day I will not have thee bear tidings, because the king's son is dead.**\n21 And Joab said to Chusai: Go, and tell the king what thou hast seen. Chusai bowed down to Joab, and ran.\n22 Then Achimaas the son of Sadoc said to Joab again: Why might not I also run after Chusai? And Joab said to him: Why wilt thou run, my son? thou wilt not be the bearer of good tidings.\n23 He answered: But what if I run? And he said to him: Run. Then Achimaas running by a nearer way passed Chusai.\n24 And David sat between the two gates: and the watchman that was on the top of the gate upon the wall, lifting up his eyes, saw a man running alone.\n25 And crying out he told the king: and the king said: If he be alone, there are good tidings in his mouth. And as he was coming apace, and drawing nearer,\n26 The watchman saw another man running, and crying aloud from above, he said: I see another man running alone. And the king said: He also is a good messenger.\n27 And the watchman said: The running of the foremost seemeth to me like the running of Achimaas the son of Sadoc. And the king said: He is a good man: and cometh with good news.\n28 And Achimaas crying out, said to the king: God save thee, O king. And falling down before the king with his face to the ground, he said: Blessed be the Lord thy God, who hath shut up the men that have lifted up their hands against the lord my king.\n29 And the king said: Is the young man Absalom safe? And Achimaas said: I saw a great tumult, O king, when thy servant Joab sent me thy servant: I know nothing else.\n30 And the king said to him: Pass, and stand here.\n31 And when he bad passed, and stood still, Chusai appeared: and coming up he said: I bring good tidings, my lord, the king, for the Lord hath judged for thee this day from the hand of all that have risen up against thee.\n32 And the king said to Chusai: Is the young man Absalom safe? And Chusai answering him, said: Let the enemies of my lord, the king, and all that rise against him unto evil, be as the young man is.\n33 The king therefore being much moved, went up to the high chamber over the gate, and wept. And as he went he spoke in this manner: My son Absalom, Absalom my son: would to God that I might die for thee, Absalom my son, my son Absalom.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does 3 John chapter 1 verse 13 say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from 3 John 1:13, New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"I had many things to write unto thee: but I would not by ink and pen write to thee.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the bible does it say \"Honour thy father and thy mother, that thou mayest be longlived upon the land which the Lord thy God will give thee.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, the book of Exodus, chapter 20, verse 12 states: \"Honour thy father and thy mother, that thou mayest be longlived upon the land which the Lord thy God will give thee.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"And I will make Rabbath a stable for camels, and the children of Ammon a couching place for flocks: and you shall know that I am the Lord.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of *Ezekiel*, chapter *25*.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n*Ezekiel Chapter 25*\n1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:\n2 Son of man, set thy face against the children of Ammon, and thou shalt prophesy of them.\n3 And thou shalt say to the children of Ammon: Hear ye the word of the Lord God: Thus saith the Lord God: Because thou hast said: Ha, ha, upon my sanctuary, because it was profaned: and upon the land of Israel, because it was laid waste: and upon the house of Juda, because they are led into captivity:\n4 Therefore will I deliver thee to the men of the east for an inheritance, and they shall place their sheepcotes in thee, and shall set up their tents in thee: they shall eat thy fruits: and they shall drink thy milk.\n**5 And I will make Rabbath a stable for camels, and the children of Ammon a couching place for flocks: and you shall know that I am the Lord.**\n6 For thus saith the Lord God: Because thou hast clapped thy hands and stamped with thy foot, and hast rejoiced with all thy heart against the land of Israel:\n7 Therefore behold I will stretch forth my hand upon thee, and will deliver thee to be the spoil of nations, and will cut thee off from among the people, and destroy thee out of the lands, and break thee in pieces: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.\n8 Thus saith the Lord God: Because Moab and Seir have said: Behold the house of Juda is like all other nations:\n9 Therefore behold I will open the shoulder of Moab from the cities, from his cities, I say, and his borders, the noble cities of the land of Bethiesimoth, and Beelmeon, and Cariathaim,\n10 To the people of the east with the children of Ammon, and I will give it them for an inheritance: that there may be no more any remembrance of the children of Ammon among the nations.\n11 And I will execute judgments in Moab: and they shall know that I am the Lord.\n12 Thus saith the Lord God: Because Edom hath taken vengeance to revenge herself of the children of Juda, and hath greatly offended, and hath sought revenge of them:\n13 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: I will stretch forth my hand upon Edom, and will take away out of it man and beast, and will make it desolate from the south: and they that are in Dedan shall fall by the sword.\n14 And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall do in Edom according to my wrath, and my fury: and they shall know my vengeance, saith the Lord God.\n15 Thus saith the Lord God: Because the Philistines have taken vengeance, and have revenged themselves with all their mind, destroying and satisfying old enmities:\n16 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will stretch forth my hand upon the Philistines, and will kill the killers, and will destroy the remnant of the sea coast.\n17 And I will execute great vengeance upon them, rebuking them in fury: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"And Athersatha said to them, that they should not eat of the holy of holies, till there arose a priest learned and perfect.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from *Ezra*, chapter *2*.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\n*Ezra Chapter 2*\n1 Now these are the children of the province, that went out of the captivity, which Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had carried away to Babylon, and who returned to Jerusalem and Juda, every man to his city.\n2 Who came with Zorobabel, Josue, Nehemia, Saraia, Rahelaia, Mardochai, Belsan, Mesphar, Beguai, Rehum, Baana.

all the ancients of Israel with the princes of the tribes, and the heads of the families of the children of Israel were assembled to king Solomon in Jerusalem: that they might carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, that is, out of Sion.\n2 And all Israel assembled themselves to king Solomon on the festival day in the month of Ethanim, the same is the seventh month.\n3 And all the ancients of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark,\n4 And carried the ark of the Lord, and the tabernacle of the covenant, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, that were in the tabernacle: and the priests and the Levites carried them.\n5 And king Solomon, and all the multitude of Israel, that were assembled unto him went with him before the ark, and they sacrificed sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered.\n6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, into the oracle of the temple, into the holy of holies under the wings of the cherubims.\n7 For the cherubims spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and covered the art, and the staves thereof above.\n8 And whereas the staves stood out, the ends of them were seen without in the sanctuary before the oracle, but were not seen farther out, and there they have been unto this day.\n9 Now in the ark there was nothing else but the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the sanctuary, that a cloud filled the house of the Lord,\n11 And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of the Lord.\n12 Then Solomon said: The Lord said that he would dwell in a cloud.\n13 Building I have built a house for thy dwelling, to be thy most firm throne for ever.\n14 And the king turned his face, and blessed all the assembly of Israel: for all the assembly of Israel stood.\n15 And Solomon said: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father, and with his own hands hath accomplished it, saying:\n16 Since the day that I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel, for a house to be built, that my name might be there: but I chose David to be over my people Israel.\n17 And David my father would have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel:\n18 And the Lord said to David my father: Whereas thou hast thought in thy heart to build a house to my name, thou hast done well in having this same thing in thy mind.\n19 Nevertheless thou shalt not build me a house, but thy son, that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build a house to my name.\n20 The Lord hath performed his word which he spoke: and I stand in the room of David my father, and sit upon the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised: and have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel.\n21 And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with our fathers, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n22 And Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in the sight of the assembly of Israel, and spread forth his hands towards heaven;\n23 And said: Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heaven above, or on earth beneath: who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that have walked before thee with all their heart.\n24 Who hast kept with thy servant David my father what thou hast promised him: with thy mouth thou didst speak, and with thy hands thou hast performed, as this day proveth.\n25 Now therefore, O Lord God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father what thou hast spoken to him, saying: There shall not be taken away of thee a man in my sight, to sit on the throne of Israel: yet so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked in my sight.\n26 And now, Lord God of Israel, let thy words be established, which thou hast spoken to thy servant David my father.\n27 Is it then to be thought that God should indeed dwell upon earth? for if heaven, and the heavens of heavens cannot contain thee, how much less this house which I have built?\n28 But have regard to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, O Lord my God: hear the hymn and the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee this day:\n29 That thy eyes may be open upon this house night and day: upon the house of which thou hast said: My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth in this place to thee.\n30 That thou mayest hearken to the supplication of thy servant and of thy people Israel, whatsoever they shall pray for in this place, and hear them in the place of thy dwelling in heaven; and when thou hearest, shew them mercy.\n31 If any man trespass against his neighbour, and have an oath upon him, wherewith he is bound: and come because of the oath before thy altar to thy house,\n32 Then hear thou in heaven: and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, and bringing his way upon his own head, and justifying the just, and rewarding him according to his justice.\n33 If thy people Israel shall fly before their enemies, (because they will sin against thee,) and doing penance, and confessing to thy name, shall come, and pray, and make supplications to thee in this house:\n34 Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them back to the land which thou gavest to their fathers.\n35 If heaven shall be shut up, and there shall be no rain, because of their sins, and they praying in this place, shall do penance to thy name, and shall be converted from their sins, by occasion of their afflictions:\n36 Then hear thou them in heaven, and forgive the sins of thy servants, and of thy people Israel: and shew them the good way wherein they should walk, and give rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people in possession.\n37 If a famine arise in the land, or a pestilence, or corrupt air, or blasting, or locust, or mildew, if their enemy afflict them besieging the gates, whatsoever plague, whatsoever infirmity,\n38 Whatsoever curse or imprecation shall happen to any man of thy people Israel: when a man shall know the wound of his own heart, and shall spread forth his hands in this house,\n39 Then hear thou in heaven, in the place of thy dwelling, and forgive, and do so as to give to every one according to his ways, as thou shalt see his heart (for thou only knowest the heart of all the children of men)\n40 That they may fear thee all the days that they live upon the face of the land, which thou hast given to our fathers.\n41 Moreover also the stranger, who is not of thy people Israel, when he shall come out of a far country for thy name's sake, (for they shall hear everywhere of thy great name and thy mighty hand,\n42 And thy stretched out arm,) so when he shall come, and shall pray in this place,\n43 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy dwelling place, and do all those things, for which that stranger shall call upon thee: that all the people of the earth may learn to fear thy name, as do thy people Israel, and may prove that thy name is called upon on this house, which I have built.\n44 If thy people go out to war against their enemies, by what way soever thou shalt send them, they shall pray to thee towards the way of the city, which thou hast chosen, and towards the house, which I have built to thy name:\n45 And then hear thou in heaven their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them.\n**46 But if they sin against thee (for there is no man who sinneth not) and thou being angry deliver them up to their enemies, so that they be led away captives into the land of their enemies far or near;**\n47 Then if they do penance in their heart in the place of captivity, and being converted make supplication to thee in their captivity, saying: We have sinned, we have done unjustly, we have committed wickedness:\n48 And return to thee with all their heart, and all their soul, in the land of their enemies, to which they had been led captives: and pray to thee towards the way of their land, which thou gavest to their fathers, and of the city which thou hast chosen, and of the temple which I have built to thy name:\n49 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy throne, their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them:\n50 And forgive thy people, that have sinned against thee, and all their iniquities, by which they have transgressed against thee: and give them mercy before them that have made them captives, that they may have compassion on them.\n51 For they are thy people, and thy inheritance, whom thou hast brought out of the land of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron.\n52 That thy eyes may be open to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, to hear them in all things for which they shall call upon thee.\n53 For thou hast separated them to thyself for an inheritance from among all the people of the earth, as thou hast spoken by Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord God.\n54 And it came to pass, when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication to the Lord, that he rose from before the altar of the Lord: for he had fixed both knees on the ground, and had spread his hands towards heaven.\n55 And he stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a, loud voice, saying:\n56 Blessed be the Lord, who hath given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed so much as one word of all the good things that he promised by his servant Moses.\n57 The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our fathers, and not leave us, nor cast us off:\n58 But may he incline our hearts to himself, that we may walk in all his ways, and keep his commandments, and his ceremonies, and all his judgments which he commanded our fathers.\n59 And let these my words, wherewith I have prayed before the Lord, he nigh unto the Lord our God day and night, that he may do judgment for his servant, and for his people Israel day by day:\n60 That all the people of the earth may know, that the Lord he is God, and there is no other besides him.\n61 Let our hearts also be perfect with the Lord our God, that we may walk in his statutes, and keep his commandments, as at this day.\n62 And the king, and all Israel him, offered victims before the Lord.\n63 And Solomon slew victims of peace offerings, which he sacrificed to the Lord, two and twenty thousand oxen, and hundred and twenty thousand sheep: so the king, and the children of Israel dedicated the temple of the Lord.\n64 In that day the king sanctified the middle of the court that was before the house of the Lord: for there he offered the holocaust, and sacrifice, and fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar that was before the Lord, was too little to receive the holocaust, and sacrifice, and fat of the peace offerings.\n65 And Solomon made at the same time a solemn feast, and all Israel with him, a great multitude from the entrance of Emath to the river of Egypt, before the Lord our God, seven days and seven days, that is, fourteen days.\n66 And on the eighth day he sent away the people: and they blessed the king, and went to their dwellings rejoicing, and glad in heart for all the good things that the Lord had done for David his servant, and for Israel his people.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and

Thessalonica, continuing with us.\n3 And the day following we came to Sidon. And Julius treating Paul courteously, permitted him to go to his friends, and to take care of himself.\n4 And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.\n5 And sailing over the sea of Cilicia, and Pamphylia, we came to Lystra, which is in Lycia:\n6 And there the centurion finding a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy, removed us into it.\n**7 And when for many days we had sailed slowly, and were scarce come over against Gnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed near Crete by Salmone:**\n8 And with much ado sailing by it, we came into a certain place, which is called Good-havens, nigh to which was the city of Thalassa.\n9 And when much time was spent, and when sailing now was dangerous, because the fast was now past, Paul comforted them,\n10 Saying to them: Ye men, I see that the voyage beginneth to be with injury and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.\n11 But the centurion believed the pilot and the master of the ship, more than those things which were said by Paul.\n12 And whereas it was not a commodious haven to winter in, the greatest part gave counsel to sail thence, if by any means they might reach Phenice to winter there, which is a haven of Crete, looking towards the southwest and northwest.\n13 And the south wind gently blowing, thinking that they had obtained their purpose, when they had loosed from Asson, they sailed close by Crete.\n14 But not long after, there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroaquilo.\n15 And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up against the wind, giving up the ship to the winds, we were driven.\n16 And running under a certain island, that is called Cauda, we had much work to come by the boat.\n17 Which being taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship, and fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, they let down the sail yard, and so were driven.\n18 And we being mightily tossed with the tempest, the next day they lightened the ship.\n19 And the third day they cast out with their own hands the tackling of the ship.\n20 And when neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small storm lay on us, all hope of our being saved was now taken away.\n21 And after they had fasted a long time, Paul standing forth in the midst of them, said: You should indeed, O ye men, have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and have gained this harm and loss.\n22 And now I exhort you to be of good cheer. For there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but only of the ship.\n23 For an angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, stood by me this night,\n24 Saying: Fear not, Paul, thou must be brought before Caesar; and behold, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.\n25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer; for I believe God that it shall so be, as it hath been told me.\n26 And we must come unto a certain island.\n27 But after the fourteenth night was come, as we were sailing in Adria, about midnight, the shipmen deemed that they discovered some country.\n28 Who also sounding, found twenty fathoms; and going on a little further, they found fifteen fathoms.\n29 Then fearing lest we should fall upon rough places, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.\n30 But as the shipmen sought to fly out of the ship, having let down the boat into the sea, under colour, as though they would have cast anchors out of the forepart of the ship,\n31 Paul said to the centurion, and to the soldiers: Except these stay in the ship, you cannot be saved.\n32 Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.\n33 And when it began to be light, Paul besought them all to take meat, saying: This day is the fourteenth day that you have waited, and continued fasting, taking nothing.\n34 Wherefore I pray you to take some meat for your health's sake; for there shall not an hair of the head of any of you perish.\n35 And when he had said these things, taking bread, he gave thanks to God in the sight of them all; and when he had broken it, he began to eat.\n36 Then were they all of better cheer, and they also took some meat.\n37 And we were in all in the ship, two hundred threescore and sixteen souls.\n38 And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, casting the wheat into the sea.\n39 And when it was day, they knew not the land; but they discovered a certain creek that had a shore, into which they minded, if they could, to thrust in the ship.\n40 And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves to the sea, loosing withal the rudder bands; and hoisting up the mainsail to the wind, they made towards shore.\n41 And when we were fallen into a place where two seas met, they run the ship aground; and the forepart indeed, sticking fast, remained unmoveable: but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the sea.\n42 And the soldiers' counsel was, that they should kill the prisoners, lest any of them, swimming out, should escape.\n43 But the centurion, willing to save Paul, forbade it to be done; and he commanded that they who could swim, should cast themselves first into the sea, and save themselves, and get to land.\n44 And the rest, some they carried on boards, and some on those things that belonged to the ship.

And you are clean, but not all.\n11 For he knew who he was that would betray him; therefore he said: You are not all clean.\n12 Then after he had washed their feet, and taken his garments, being set down again, he said to them: Know you what I have done to you?\n13 You call me Master, and Lord; and you say well, for so I am.\n14 If then I being your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; you also ought to wash one another's feet.\n15 For I have given you an example, that as I have done to you, so you do also.\n16 Amen, amen I say to you: The servant is not greater than his lord; neither is the apostle greater than he that sent him.\n17 If you know these things, you shall be blessed if you do them.\n18 I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen.

the complete chapter text:\n*1 Maccabees Chapter 11*\n1 And the king of Egypt gathered together an army, like the sand that lieth upon the sea shore, and many ships: and he sought to get the kingdom of Alexander by deceit, and join it to his own kingdom.\n2 And he went out into Syria with peaceable words, and they opened to him the cities, and met him: for king Alexander had ordered them to go forth to meet him, because he was his father in law.\n3 Now when Ptolemee entered into the cities, he put garrisons of soldiers in every city.\n4 And when he came near to Azotus, they shewed him the temple of Dagon that was burnt with fire, and Azotus, and the suburbs thereof that were destroyed, and the bodies that were cast abroad, and the graves of them that were slain in the battle, which they had made near the way.\n5 And they told the king that Jonathan had done these things, to make him odious: but the king held his peace.\n6 And Jonathan came to meet the king at Joppe with glory, and they saluted one another, and they lodged there.\n7 And Jonathan went with the king as far as the river, called Eleutherus: and he returned into Jerusalem.\n8 And king Ptolemee got the dominion of the cities by the sea side, even to Seleucia, and he devised evil designs against Alexander.\n9 And he sent ambassadors to Demetrius, saying: Come, let us make a league between us, and I will give thee my daughter whom Alexander hath, and thou shalt reign in the kingdom of thy father.\n10 For I repent that I have given him my daughter: for he hath sought to kill me.\n11 And he slandered him, because he coveted his kingdom.\n12 And he took away his daughter, and gave her to Demetrius, and alienated himself from Alexander, and his enmities were made manifest.\n13 And Ptolemee entered into Antioch, and set two crowns upon his head, that of Egypt, and that of Asia.\n14 Now king Alexander was in Cilicia at that time: because they that were in those places had rebelled.\n15 And when Alexander heard of it, he came to give him battle, and king Ptolemee brought forth his army, and met him with a strong power, and put him to flight.\n16 And Alexander fled into Arabia, there to be protected: and king Ptolemee was exalted.\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.\n**26 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",

chapter:\n*Daniel 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.\n**57 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;

For he hath delivered us from hell, and saved us out of the hand of death, and delivered us out of the midst of the burning flame, and saved us out of the midst of the fire.\n89 O give thanks to the Lord, because he is good: because his mercy endureth for ever and ever.\n90 O all ye religious, bless the Lord the God of gods: praise him and give him thanks, because his mercy endureth for ever and ever.\n91 Then Nabuchodonosor the king was astonished, and rose up in haste, and said to his nobles: Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? 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. It hath seemed good to me therefore to publish\n100 His signs, because they are great: and his wonders, because they are mighty: and his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, I and his power to all generations.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "I need the text of Deuteronomy 8:8", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at Deuteronomy 8:8 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"A land of wheat, and barley, and vineyards, wherein fig trees and pomegranates, and oliveyards grow: a land of oil and honey.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book is the quote \"Be not hasty to depart from his face, and do not continue in an evil work: for he will do all that pleaseth him:\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You can find \"Be not hasty to depart from his face, and do not continue in an evil work: for he will do all that pleaseth him:\" in the Old Testament, specifically in Ecclesiastes 8:3.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "From which book and what chapter does \"As the Lord commanded Moses.

Why have you brought us into this desert, that you might destroy all the multitude with famine?\n4 And the Lord said to Moses: Behold I will rain bread from heaven for you: let the people go forth, and gather what is sufficient for every day: that I may prove them whether they will walk in my law, or not.\n5 But the sixth day let them provide for to bring in: and let it be double to that they were wont to gather every day.\n6 And Moses and Aaron said to the children of Israel: In the evening you shall know that the Lord hath brought you forth out of the land of Egypt:\n7 And in the morning you shall see the glory of the Lord: for he hath heard your murmuring against the Lord: but as for us, what are we, that you mutter against us?\n8 And Moses said: In the evening the Lord will give you flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full: for he hath heard your murmurings, with which you have murmured against him, for what are we? your murmuring is not against us, but against the Lord.\n9 Moses also said to Aaron: Say to the whole congregation of the children of Israel: Come before the Lord: for he hath heard your murmuring.\n10 And when Aaron spoke to all the assembly of the children of Israel, they looked towards the wilderness: and behold the glory of the Lord appeared in a cloud.\n11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n12 I have heard the murmuring of the children of Israel: say to them: In the evening you shall eat flesh, and in the morning you shall have your fill of bread: and you shall know that I am the Lord your God.\n13 So it came to pass in the evening, that quails coming up, covered the camp: and in the morning, a dew lay round about the camp.\n14 And when it had covered the face of the earth, it appeared in the wilderness small, and as it were beaten with a pestle, like unto the hoar frost on the ground.\n15 And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another: Manhu! which signifieth: What is this! for they knew not what it was. And Moses said to them: This is the bread, which the Lord hath given you to eat.\n16 This is the word, that the Lord hath commanded: Let every one gather of it as much as is enough to eat: a gomor for every man, according to the number of your souls that dwell in a tent, so shall you take of it.\n17 And the children of Israel did so: and they gathered, one more, another less.\n18 And they measured by the measure of a gomor: neither had he more that had gathered more: nor did he find less that had provided less: but every one had gathered, according to what they were able to eat.\n19 And Moses said to them: Let no man leave thereof till the morning.\n20 And they hearkened not to him, but some of them left until the morning, and it began to be full of worms, and it putrified, and Moses was angry with them.\n21 Now every one of them gathered in the morning, as much as might suffice to eat: and after the sun grew hot, it melted.\n22 But on the sixth day they gathered twice as much, that is, two gomors every man: and all the rulers of the multitude came, and told Moses.\n23 And he said to them: This is what the Lord hath spoken: To morrow is the rest of the sabbath sanctified to the Lord.

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.\n**48 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 2 Chronicles 20:37?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "2 Chronicles 20:37 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"And Eliezer the son of Dodau of Maresa prophesied to Josaphat, saying: Because thou hast made a league with Ochozias, the Lord hath destroyed thy works, and the ships are broken, and they could not go to Tharsis.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "I need the text of 2 Peter 2:16", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From the New Testament, in 2 Peter 2:16 (Douay Rheims), we read:\n\"But had a check of his madness, the dumb beast used to the yoke, which speaking with man's voice, forbade the folly of the prophet.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you pinpoint the book and chapter of \"And the things which thou hast heard of me by many witnesses, the same commend to faithful men, who shall be fit to teach others also.\" for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That verse comes from *2 Timothy*, chapter *2*.\n\nCheck out the whole chapter:\n*2 Timothy Chapter 2*\n1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace which is in Christ Jesus:\n**2 And the things which thou hast heard of me by many witnesses, the same commend to faithful men, who shall be fit to teach others also.**\n3 Labour as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.\n4 No man, being a soldier to God, entangleth himself with secular businesses; that he may please him to whom he hath engaged himself.\n5 For he also that striveth for the mastery, is not crowned, except he strive lawfully.\n6 The husbandman, that laboureth, must first partake of the fruits.\n7 Understand what I say: for the Lord will give thee in all things understanding.\n8 Be mindful that the Lord Jesus Christ is risen again from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my gospel.\n9 Wherein I labour even unto bands, as an evildoer; but the word of God is not bound.\n10 Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation, which is in Christ Jesus, with heavenly glory.\n11 A faithful saying: for if we be dead with him, we shall live also with him.\n12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him.

And if he will not hear the church, let him be to thee as the heathen and publican.\n18 Amen I say to you, whatsoever you shall bind upon earth, shall be bound also in heaven; and whatsoever you shall loose upon earth, shall be loosed also in heaven.\n19 Again I say to you, that if two of you shall consent upon earth, concerning any thing whatsoever they shall ask, it shall be done to them by my Father who is in heaven.\n20 For where there are two or three gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.\n21 Then came Peter unto him and said: Lord, how often shall my brother offend against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?\n**22 Jesus saith to him: I say not to thee, till seven times; but till seventy times seven times.**\n23 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened to a king, who would take an account of his servants.\n24 And when he had begun to take the account, one was brought to him, that owed him ten thousand talents.\n25 And as he had not wherewith to pay it, his lord commanded that he should be sold, and his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made.\n26 But that servant falling down, besought him, saying: Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.\n27 And the lord of that servant being moved with pity, let him go and forgave him the debt.\n28 But when that servant was gone out, he found one of his fellow servants that owed him an hundred pence: and laying hold of him, throttled him, saying: Pay what thou owest.\n29 And his fellow servant falling down, besought him, saying: Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.\n30 And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he paid the debt.\n31 Now his fellow servants seeing what was done, were very much grieved, and they came and told their lord all that was done.\n32 Then his lord called him; and said to him: Thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all the debt, because thou besoughtest me:\n33 Shouldst not thou then have had compassion also on thy fellow servant, even as I had compassion on thee?\n34 And his lord being angry, delivered him to the torturers until he paid all the debt.\n35 So also shall my heavenly Father do to you, if you forgive not every one his brother from your hearts.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Scripture from Matthew 25:30?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Matthew 25:30 from the New Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"And the unprofitable servant cast ye out into the exterior darkness.

8*\n1 Then all the ancients of Israel with the princes of the tribes, and the heads of the families of the children of Israel were assembled to king Solomon in Jerusalem: that they might carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, that is, out of Sion.\n2 And all Israel assembled themselves to king Solomon on the festival day in the month of Ethanim, the same is the seventh month.\n3 And all the ancients of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark,\n4 And carried the ark of the Lord, and the tabernacle of the covenant, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, that were in the tabernacle: and the priests and the Levites carried them.\n5 And king Solomon, and all the multitude of Israel, that were assembled unto him went with him before the ark, and they sacrificed sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered.\n6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, into the oracle of the temple, into the holy of holies under the wings of the cherubims.\n7 For the cherubims spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and covered the art, and the staves thereof above.\n8 And whereas the staves stood out, the ends of them were seen without in the sanctuary before the oracle, but were not seen farther out, and there they have been unto this day.\n9 Now in the ark there was nothing else but the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the sanctuary, that a cloud filled the house of the Lord,\n11 And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of the Lord.\n12 Then Solomon said: The Lord said that he would dwell in a cloud.\n13 Building I have built a house for thy dwelling, to be thy most firm throne for ever.\n14 And the king turned his face, and blessed all the assembly of Israel: for all the assembly of Israel stood.\n15 And Solomon said: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father, and with his own hands hath accomplished it, saying:\n16 Since the day that I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel, for a house to be built, that my name might be there: but I chose David to be over my people Israel.\n17 And David my father would have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel:\n18 And the Lord said to David my father: Whereas thou hast thought in thy heart to build a house to my name, thou hast done well in having this same thing in thy mind.\n19 Nevertheless thou shalt not build me a house, but thy son, that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build a house to my name.\n20 The Lord hath performed his word which he spoke: and I stand in the room of David my father, and sit upon the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised: and have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel.\n21 And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with our fathers, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n22 And Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in the sight of the assembly of Israel, and spread forth his hands towards heaven;\n23 And said: Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heaven above, or on earth beneath: who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that have walked before thee with all their heart.\n24 Who hast kept with thy servant David my father what thou hast promised him: with thy mouth thou didst speak, and with thy hands thou hast performed, as this day proveth.\n25 Now therefore, O Lord God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father what thou hast spoken to him, saying: There shall not be taken away of thee a man in my sight, to sit on the throne of Israel: yet so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked in my sight.\n26 And now, Lord God of Israel, let thy words be established, which thou hast spoken to thy servant David my father.\n27 Is it then to be thought that God should indeed dwell upon earth? for if heaven, and the heavens of heavens cannot contain thee, how much less this house which I have built?\n28 But have regard to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, O Lord my God: hear the hymn and the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee this day:\n29 That thy eyes may be open upon this house night and day: upon the house of which thou hast said: My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth in this place to thee.\n30 That thou mayest hearken to the supplication of thy servant and of thy people Israel, whatsoever they shall pray for in this place, and hear them in the place of thy dwelling in heaven; and when thou hearest, shew them mercy.\n31 If any man trespass against his neighbour, and have an oath upon him, wherewith he is bound: and come because of the oath before thy altar to thy house,\n32 Then hear thou in heaven: and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, and bringing his way upon his own head, and justifying the just, and rewarding him according to his justice.\n33 If thy people Israel shall fly before their enemies, (because they will sin against thee,) and doing penance, and confessing to thy name, shall come, and pray, and make supplications to thee in this house:\n34 Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them back to the land which thou gavest to their fathers.\n35 If heaven shall be shut up, and there shall be no rain, because of their sins, and they praying in this place, shall do penance to thy name, and shall be converted from their sins, by occasion of their afflictions:\n36 Then hear thou them in heaven, and forgive the sins of thy servants, and of thy people Israel: and shew them the good way wherein they should walk, and give rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people in possession.\n37 If a famine arise in the land, or a pestilence, or corrupt air, or blasting, or locust, or mildew, if their enemy afflict them besieging the gates, whatsoever plague, whatsoever infirmity,\n38 Whatsoever curse or imprecation shall happen to any man of thy people Israel: when a man shall know the wound of his own heart, and shall spread forth his hands in this house,\n39 Then hear thou in heaven, in the place of thy dwelling, and forgive, and do so as to give to every one according to his ways, as thou shalt see his heart (for thou only knowest the heart of all the children of men)\n40 That they may fear thee all the days that they live upon the face of the land, which thou hast given to our fathers.\n41 Moreover also the stranger, who is not of thy people Israel, when he shall come out of a far country for thy name's sake, (for they shall hear everywhere of thy great name and thy mighty hand,\n42 And thy stretched out arm,) so when he shall come, and shall pray in this place,\n43 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy dwelling place, and do all those things, for which that stranger shall call upon thee: that all the people of the earth may learn to fear thy name, as do thy people Israel, and may prove that thy name is called upon on this house, which I have built.\n44 If thy people go out to war against their enemies, by what way soever thou shalt send them, they shall pray to thee towards the way of the city, which thou hast chosen, and towards the house, which I have built to thy name:\n45 And then hear thou in heaven their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them.\n46 But if they sin against thee (for there is no man who sinneth not) and thou being angry deliver them up to their enemies, so that they be led away captives into the land of their enemies far or near;\n47 Then if they do penance in their heart in the place of captivity, and being converted make supplication to thee in their captivity, saying: We have sinned, we have done unjustly, we have committed wickedness:\n48 And return to thee with all their heart, and all their soul, in the land of their enemies, to which they had been led captives: and pray to thee towards the way of their land, which thou gavest to their fathers, and of the city which thou hast chosen, and of the temple which I have built to thy name:\n49 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy throne, their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them:\n50 And forgive thy people, that have sinned against thee, and all their iniquities, by which they have transgressed against thee: and give them mercy before them that have made them captives, that they may have compassion on them.\n51 For they are thy people, and thy inheritance, whom thou hast brought out of the land of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron.\n52 That thy eyes may be open to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, to hear them in all things for which they shall call upon thee.\n53 For thou hast separated them to thyself for an inheritance from among all the people of the earth, as thou hast spoken by Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord God.\n54 And it came to pass, when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication to the Lord, that he rose from before the altar of the Lord: for he had fixed both knees on the ground, and had spread his hands towards heaven.\n55 And he stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a, loud voice, saying:\n**56 Blessed be the Lord, who hath given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed so much as one word of all the good things that he promised by his servant Moses.**\n57 The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our fathers, and not leave us, nor cast us off:\n58 But may he incline our hearts to himself, that we may walk in all his ways, and keep his commandments, and his ceremonies, and all his judgments which he commanded our fathers.\n59 And let these my words, wherewith I have prayed before the Lord, he nigh unto the Lord our God day and night, that he may do judgment for his servant, and for his people Israel day by day:\n60 That all the people of the earth may know, that the Lord he is God, and there is no other besides him.\n61 Let our hearts also be perfect with the Lord our God, that we may walk in his statutes, and keep his commandments, as at this day.\n62 And the king, and all Israel him, offered victims before the Lord.\n63 And Solomon slew victims of peace offerings, which he sacrificed to the Lord, two and twenty thousand oxen, and hundred and twenty thousand sheep: so the king, and the children of Israel dedicated the temple of the Lord.\n64 In that day the king sanctified the middle of the court that was before the house of the Lord: for there he offered the holocaust, and sacrifice, and fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar that was before the Lord, was too little to receive the holocaust, and sacrifice, and fat of the peace offerings.\n65 And Solomon made at the same time a solemn feast, and all Israel with him, a great multitude from the entrance of Emath to the river of Egypt, before the Lord our God, seven days and seven days, that is, fourteen days.\n66 And on the eighth day he sent away the people: and they blessed the king, and went to their dwellings rejoicing, and glad in heart for all the good things that the Lord had done for David his servant, and for Israel his people.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and chapter does \"But Jonathan

have commanded them to go also to you, and to salute you, and to deliver you our letters, concerning the renewing of our brotherhood.\n18 And now you shall do well to give us an answer hereto.\n19 And this is the copy of the letter which he had sent to Onias:\n20 Arius king of the Spartans to Onias the high priest, greeting.\n21 It is found in writing concerning the Spartans, and the Jews, that they are brethren, and that they are of the stock of Abraham.\n22 And now since this is come to our knowledge, you do well to write to us of your prosperity.\n23 And we also have written back to you: That our cattle, and our possessions are yours: and yours, ours. We therefore have commanded that these things should be told you.\n24 Now Jonathan heard that the generals of Demetrius were come again with a greater army than before to fight against him.\n25 So he went out from Jerusalem, and met them in the land of Amath: for he gave them no time to enter into his country.\n26 And he sent spies into their camp, and they came back and brought him word that they designed to come upon them in the night.\n27 And when the sun was set, Jonathan commanded his men to watch, and to be in arms all night long ready to fight, and he set sentinels round about the camp.\n28 And the enemies heard that Jonathan and his men were ready for battle, and they were struck with fear, and dread in their heart: and they kindled fires in their camp.\n**29 But Jonathan and they that were with him knew it not till the morning: for they saw the lights burning.**\n30 And Jonathan pursued after them, but overtook them not: for they had passed the river Eleutherus.\n31 And Jonathan turned upon the Arabians that are called Zabadeans: and he defeated them, and took the spoils of them.\n32 And he went forward, and came to Damascus, and passed through all that country.\n33 Simon also went forth, and came as far as Ascalon, and the neighbouring fortresses, and he turned aside to Joppe, and took possession of it,\n34 (For he heard that they designed to deliver the hold to them that took part with Demetrius,) and he put a garrison there to keep it.\n35 And Jonathan came back, and called together the ancients of the people, and he took a resolution with them to build fortresses in Judea,\n36 And to build up walls in Jerusalem, and raise a mount between the castle and the city, to separate it from the city, that so it might have no communication, and that they might neither buy nor sell.\n37 And they came together to build up the city: for the wall that was upon the brook towards the east was broken down, and he repaired that which is called Caphetetha:\n38 And Simon built Adiada in Sephela, and fortified it, and set up gates and bars.\n39 Now when Tryphon had conceived a design to make himself king of Asia, and to take the crown, and to stretch out his hand against king Antiochus:\n40 Fearing lest Jonathan would not suffer him, but would fight against him: he sought to seize upon him, and to kill him. So he rose up and came to Bethsan.\n41 And Jonathan went out to meet him with forty thousand men chosen for battle, and came to Bethsan.\n42 Now when Tryphon saw that Jonathan came with a great army, he durst not stretch forth his hand against him,\n43 But received him with honour, and commended him to all his friends, and gave him presents: and he commanded his troops to obey him, as himself.\n44 And he said to Jonathan: Why hast thou troubled all the people, whereas we have no war?\n45 Now therefore send them back to their own houses: and choose thee a few men that may be with thee, and come with me to Ptolemais, and I will deliver it to thee, and the rest of the strong holds, and the army, and all that have any charge, and I will return and go away: for this is the cause of my coming.\n46 And Jonathan believed him, and did as he said: and sent away his army, and they departed into the land of Juda:\n47 But he kept with him three thousand men: of whom he sent two thousand into Galilee, and one thousand went with him.\n48 Now as soon as Jonathan entered into Ptolemais, they of Ptolemais shut the gates of the city, and took him: and all them that came in with him they slew with the sword.\n49 Then Tryphon sent an army and horsemen into Galilee, and into the great plain to destroy all Jonathan's company.\n50 But they, when they understood that Jonathan and all that were with him were taken and slain, encouraged one another, and went out ready for battle.\n51 Then they that had come after them, seeing that they stood for their lives, returned back.\n52 Whereupon they all came peaceably into the land of Juda.

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.\n**35 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": "Which chapter and book contains \"But give me leave, O king, and I will kill this dragon without sword or club.

And the king said to him: Why dost thou not adore Bel?\n4 And he answered, and said to him: Because I do not worship idols made with hands, but the living God, that created heaven and earth, and hath power over all flesh.\n5 And the king said to him: Doth not Bel seem to thee to be a living god? Seest thou not how much he eateth and drinketh every day?\n6 Then Daniel smiled and said: O king, be not deceived: for this is but clay within, and brass without, neither hath he eaten at any time.\n7 And the king being angry called for his priests, and said to them: If you tell me not, who it is that eateth up these expenses, you shall die.\n8 But if you can shew that Bel eateth these things, Daniel shall die, because he hath blasphemed against Bel. And Daniel said to the king: Be it done according to thy word.\n9 Now the priests of Bel were seventy, besides their wives, and little ones, and children. And the king went with Daniel into the temple of Bel.\n10 And the priests of Bel said: Behold we go out: and do thou, O king, set on the meats, and make ready the wine, and shut the door fast, and seal it with thy own ring:\n11 And when thou comest in the morning, if thou findest not that Bel hath eaten up all, we will suffer death, or else Daniel that hath lied against us.\n12 And they little regarded it, because they had made under the table a secret entrance, and they always came in by it, and consumed those things.\n13 So it came to pass after they were gone out, the king set the meats before Bel: and Daniel commanded his servants, and they brought ashes, and he sifted them all over the temple before the king: and going forth they shut the door, and having sealed it with the king's ring, they departed.\n14 But the priests went in by night, according to their custom, with their wives and their children: and they ate and drank up all.\n15 And the king arose early in the morning, and Daniel with him.\n16 And the king said: Are the seals whole, Daniel? And he answered: They are whole, O king.\n17 And as soon as he had opened the door, the king looked upon the table, and cried out with a loud voice: Great art thou, O Bel, and there is not any deceit with thee.\n18 And Daniel laughed: and he held the king that he should not go in: and he said: Behold the pavement, mark whose footsteps these are.\n19 And the king said: I see the footsteps of men, and women, and children. And the king was angry.\n20 Then he took the priests, and their wives, and their children: and they shewed him the private doors by which they came in, and consumed the things that were on the table.\n21 The king therefore put them to death, and delivered Bel into the power of Daniel: who destroyed him, and his temple.\n22 And there was a great dragon in that place, and the Babylonians worshipped him.\n23 And the king said to Daniel: Behold thou canst not say now, that this is not a living god: adore him therefore.\n24 And Daniel said: I adore the Lord my God: for he is the living God: but that is no living god.\n**25 But give me leave, O king, and I will kill this dragon without sword or club. And the king said: I give thee leave.**\n26 Then Daniel took pitch, and fat, and hair, and boiled them together: and he made lumps, and put them into the dragon's mouth, and the dragon burst asunder. And he said: Behold him whom you worshipped.\n27 And when the Babylonians had heard this, they took great indignation: and being gathered together against the king, they said: The king is become a Jew. He hath destroyed Bel, he hath killed the dragon, and he hath put the priests to death.\n28 And they came to the king, and said: Deliver us Daniel, or else we will destroy thee and thy house.\n29 And the king saw that they pressed upon him violently: and being constrained by necessity he delivered Daniel to them.\n30 And they cast him into the den of lions, and he was there six days.\n31 And in the den there were seven lions, and they had given to them two carcasses every day, and two sheep: but then they were not given unto them, that they might devour Daniel.\n32 Now there was in Judea a prophet called Habacuc, and he had boiled pottage, and had broken bread in a bowl: and was going into the field, to carry it to the reapers.\n33 And the angel of the Lord said to Habacuc: Carry the dinner which thou hast into Babylon to Daniel, who is in the lions' den.\n34 And Habacuc said: Lord, I never saw Babylon, nor do I know the den.\n35 And the angel of the Lord took him by the top of his head, and carried him by the hair of his head, and set him in Babylon over the den in the force of his spirit.\n36 And Habacuc cried, saying: O Daniel, thou servant of God, take the dinner that God hath sent thee.\n37 And Daniel said: Thou hast remembered me, O God, and thou hast not forsaken them that love thee.\n38 And Daniel arose and ate. And the angel of the Lord presently set Habacuc again in his own place.\n39 And upon the seventh day the king came to bewail Daniel: and he came to the den, and looked in, and behold Daniel was sitting in the midst of the lions.\n40 And the king cried out with a loud voice, saying: Great art thou, O Lord the God of Daniel. And he drew him out of the lions' den.\n41 But those that had been the cause of his destruction, he cast into the den, and they were devoured in a moment before him.\n42 Then the king said: Let all the inhabitants of the whole earth fear the God of Daniel: for he is the Saviour, working signs, and wonders in the earth: who hath delivered Daniel out of the lions' den.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where does it say \"Cursed shall be thy barn, and cursed thy stores.\", in the bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The quote \"Cursed shall be thy barn, and cursed thy stores.\" is from Deuteronomy 28:17 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- **Book:** Ecclesiastes\n- **Chapter:** 2\n- **Verse:** 20", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, Ecclesiastes chapter 2, verse 20 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"Wherefore I left off and my heart renounced labouring any more under the sun.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Recite Ezekiel 40:2", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**The Old Testament**\n*Ezekiel 40:2 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"In the visions of God he brought me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain: upon which there was as the building of a city, bending towards the south.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and what chapter and verse include \"And when they shall go, I will spread my net upon them: I will bring them down as the fowl of the air, I will strike them as their congregation hath heard.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The text \"And when they shall go, I will spread my net upon them: I will bring them down as the fowl of the air, I will strike them as their congregation hath heard.\" is part of Hosea chapter 7, verse 12 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Verse 15 from chapter 10 in Hosea?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**Old Testament**\n*Hosea 10:15 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"So hath Bethel done to you, because of the evil of your iniquities.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Book: Malachi\nChapter: 2\nVerse: 13", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Malachi 2:13 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"And this again have you done, you have covered the altar of the Lord with tears, with weeping, and bellowing, so that I have no more a regard to sacrifice, neither do I accept any atonement at your hands.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does Matthew chapter 13 verse 9 say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Matthew 13:9 from the New Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"But he answered and said to them: When it is evening, you say, It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're asking about is in *Matthew*, chapter *16*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*Matthew Chapter 16*\n1 And there came to him the Pharisees and Sadducees tempting: and they asked him to shew them a sign from heaven.\n**2 But he answered and said to them: When it is evening, you say, It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.**\n3 And in the morning: To day there will be a storm, for the sky is red and lowering.

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.

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?

Behold, he that will betray me is at hand.\n43 And while he was yet speaking, cometh Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve: and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the ancients.\n44 And he that betrayed him, had given them a sign, saying: Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he; lay hold on him, and lead him away carefully.\n45 And when he was come, immediately going up to him, he saith: Hail, Rabbi; and he kissed him.\n46 But they laid hands on him, and held him.\n47 And one of them that stood by, drawing a sword, struck a servant of the chief priest, and cut off his ear.\n48 And Jesus answering, said to them: Are you come out as to a robber, with swords and staves to apprehend me?\n49 I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and you did not lay hands on me. 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? Who all condemned him to be guilty of death.\n65 And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say unto him: Prophesy: and the servants struck him with the palms of their hands.\n66 Now when Peter was in the court below, there cometh one of the maidservants of the high priest.\n67 And when she had seen Peter warming himself, looking on him she saith: Thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.\n68 But he denied, saying: I neither know nor understand what thou sayest. And he went forth before the court; and the cock crew.\n69 And again a maidservant seeing him, began to say to the standers by: This is one of them.\n70 But he denied again. And after a while they that stood by said again to Peter: Surely thou art one of them; for thou art also a Galilean.\n71 But he began to curse and to swear, saying; I know not this man of whom you speak.\n72 And immediately the cock crew again.

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.\n**39 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.

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.\n**31 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": "Where in the books does \"If any man be found soliciting his brother of the children of Israel, and selling him shall take a price, he shall be put to death, and thou shalt take away the evil from the midst of thee.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Your verse is located in *Deuteronomy*, chapter *24*.\n\nTake a look at the whole chapter:\n*Deuteronomy Chapter 24*\n1 If a man take a wife, and have her, and she find not favour in his eyes, for some uncleanness: he shall write a bill of divorce, and shall give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.\n2 And when she is departed, and marrieth another husband,\n3 And he also hateth her, and hath given her a bill of divorce, and hath sent her out of his house or is dead:\n4 The former husband cannot take her again to wife: because she is defiled, and is become abominable before the Lord: lest thou cause thy land to sin, which the Lord thy God shall give thee to possess.\n5 When a man hath lately taken a wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall any public business be enjoined him, but he shall be free at home without fault, that for one year he may rejoice with his wife.\n6 Thou shalt not take the nether, nor the upper millstone to pledge: for he hath pledged his life to thee.\n**7 If any man be found soliciting his brother of the children of Israel, and selling him shall take a price, he shall be put to death, and thou shalt take away the evil from the midst of thee.**\n8 Observe diligently that thou incur not the stroke of the leprosy, but thou shalt do whatsoever the priests of the Levitical race shall teach thee, according to what I have commanded them, and fulfill thou it carefully.\n9 Remember what the Lord your God did to Mary, in the way when you came out of Egypt.\n10 When thou shalt demand of thy neighbour any thing that he oweth thee, thou shalt not go into his house to take away a pledge:\n11 But then shalt stand without, and he shall bring out to thee what he hath.\n12 But if he be poor, the pledge shall not lodge with thee that night,\n13 But thou shalt restore it to him presently before the going down of the sun: that he may sleep in his own raiment and bless thee, and thou mayst have justice before the Lord thy God.\n14 Thou shalt not refuse the hire of the needy, and the poor, whether he be thy brother, or a stranger that dwelleth with thee in the land, and is within thy gates:\n15 But thou shalt pay him the price of his labour the same day, before the going down of the sun, because he is poor, and with it maintaineth his life: lest he cry against thee to the Lord, and it be reputed to thee for a sin.\n16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children for the fathers, but every one shall die for his own sin.\n17 Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger nor of the fatherless, neither shalt thou take away the widow's raiment for a pledge.\n18 Remember that thou wast a slave in Egypt, and the Lord thy God delivered thee from thence.

good before the Lord all the days of Joiada the priest.\n3 And Joiada took for him two wives, by whom he had sons and daughters.\n4 After this Joas had a mind to repair the house of the Lord.\n5 And he assembled the priests, and the Levites, and said to them: Go out to the cities of Juda, and gather of all Israel money to repair the temple of your God, from year to year: and do this with speed: but the Levites were negligent.\n6 And the king called Joiada the chief, and said to him: Why hast thou not taken care to oblige the Levites to bring in out of Juda and Jerusalem the money that was appointed by Moses the servant of the Lord for all the multitude of Israel to bring into the tabernacle of the testimony?\n7 For that wicked woman Athalia, and her children have destroyed the house of God, and adorned the temple of Baal with all the things that had been dedicated in the temple of the Lord.\n8 And the king commanded, and they made a chest: and set it by the gate of the house of the Lord on the outside.\n9 And they made a proclamation in Juda and Jerusalem, that every man should bring to the Lord the money which Moses the servant of God appointed for all Israel, in the desert.\n10 And all the princes, and all the people rejoiced: and going In they contributed and cast so much into the chest of the Lord, that it was filled.\n11 And when it was time to bring the chest before the king by the hands of the Levites, (for they saw there was much money,) the king's scribe, and he whom the high priest had appointed went in: and they poured out the money that was in the chest: and they carried back the chest to its place: and thus they did from day to day, and there was gathered an immense sum of money.\n12 And the king and Joiada gave it to those who were over the works of the house of the Lord: but they hired with it stonecutters, and artificers of every kind of work to repair the house of the Lord: and such as wrought in iron and brass, to uphold what began to be falling.\n13 And the workmen were diligent, and the breach of the walls was closed up by their hands, and they set up the house of the Lord in its former state, and made it stand firm.\n14 And when they had finished all the works, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Joiada: and with it were made vessels for the temple for the ministry, and for holocausts and bowls, and other vessels of gold and silver: and holocausts were offered in the house of the Lord continually all the days of Joiada.\n15 But Joiada grew old and was full of days, and died when he was a hundred and thirty years old.\n16 And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good to Israel, and to his house.\n17 And after the death of Joiada, the princes of Juda went in, and worshipped the king: and he was soothed by their services and hearkened to them.\n18 And they forsook the temple of the Lord the God of their fathers, and served groves and idols, and wrath came upon Juda and Jerusalem for this sin.\n19 And he sent prophets to them to bring them back to the Lord, and they would not give ear when they testified against them.\n**20 The spirit of God then

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,\n**33 And swore, saying: Unless you deliver Judas prisoner to me, I will lay this temple of God even with the ground, and will beat down the altar, and I will dedicate this temple to Bacchus.**\n34 And when he had spoken thus he departed. But the priests stretching forth their hands to heaven, called upon him that was ever the defender of their nation, saying in this manner:\n35 Thou, O Lord of all things, who wantest nothing, wast pleased that the temple of thy habitation should be amongst us.\n36 Therefore now, O Lord the holy of all holies, keep this house for ever undefiled which was lately cleansed.\n37 Now Razias, one of the ancients of Jerusalem, was accused to Nicanor, a man that was a lover of the city, and of good report, who for his affection was called the father of the Jews.\n38 This man, for a long time, had held fast his purpose of keeping himself pure in the Jews' religion, and was ready to expose his body and life, that he might persevere therein.\n39 So Nicanor being willing to declare the hatred that he bore the Jews, sent five hundred soldiers to take him.\n40 For he thought by insnaring him to hurt the Jews very much.\n41 Now as the multitude sought to rush into his house, and to break open the door, and to set fire to it, when he was ready to be taken, he struck himself with his sword:\n42 Choosing to die nobly rather than to fall into the hands of the wicked, and to suffer abuses unbecoming his noble birth.\n43 But whereas through haste he missed of giving himself a sure wound, and the crowd was breaking into the doors, he ran boldly to the wall, and manfully threw himself down to the crowd:\n44 But they quickly making room for his fall, he came upon the midst of the neck.\n45 And as he had yet breath in him, being inflamed in mind he arose: and while his blood ran down with a great stream, and he was grievously wounded, he ran through the crowd:\n46 And standing upon a steep rock, when he was now almost without blood, grasping his bowels with both hands, he cast them upon the throng, calling upon the Lord of life and spirit, to restore these to him again: and so he departed this life.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you quote Exodus 4:10 for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From the Old Testament, in Exodus 4:10 (Douay Rheims), we read:\n\"Moses said: I beseech thee, Lord.

you're asking about is in *2 Maccabees*, chapter *8*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*2 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.\n**9 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 had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.\n13 And he had seven sons, and three daughters.\n14 And he called the names of one Dies, and the name of the second Cassia, and the name of the third Cornustibil.\n15 And there were not found in all the earth women so beautiful as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.\n16 And Job lived after these things, a hundred and forty years, and he saw his children, and his children's children, unto the fourth generation, and he died an old man, and full of days.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does Matthew chapter 6 verse 6 say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**The New Testament**\n*Matthew 6:6 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"But thou when thou shalt pray, enter into thy chamber, and having shut the door, pray to thy Father in secret: and thy Father who seeth in secret will repay thee.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Nehemiah, chapter 3, verse 9 - what does it say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at Nehemiah 3:9 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"And next to him built Raphaia the son of Hur, lord of the street of Jerusalem.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"But yet going to my people, I will give thee counsel, what this people shall do to thy people in the latter days.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"But yet going to my people, I will give thee counsel, what this people shall do to thy people in the latter days.\" is written in Numbers 24:14, within the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"I opened my mouth and panted: because I longed for thy commandments.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book *Psalm*, chapter *118*.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\n*Psalm Chapter 118*\n1 ALEPH.

And he made himself chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.\n6 Neither did his father rebuke him at any time, saying: Why hast thou done this? And he also was very beautiful, the next in birth after Absalom.\n7 And he conferred with Joab the son of Sarvia, and with Abiathar the priest, who furthered Adonias's side.\n8 But Sadoc the priest, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Semei, and Rei, and the strength of David's army was not with Adonias.\n9 And Adonias having slain rams and calves, and all fat cattle by the stone of Zoheleth, which was near the fountain Rogel, invited all his brethren the king's sons, and all the men of Juda, the king's servants:\n10 But Nathan the prophet, and Banaias, and all the valiant men, and Solomon his brother, he invited not.\n11 And Nathan said to Bethsabee the mother of Solomon: Hast thou not heard that Adonias the son of Haggith reigneth, and our lord David knoweth it not?\n12 Now then come, take my counsel and save thy life, and the life of thy son Solomon.\n13 Go, and get thee in to king David, and say to him: Didst not thou, my lord O king, swear to me thy handmaid, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne? why then doth Adonias reign?\n14 And while thou art yet speaking there with the king, I will come in after thee, and will fill up thy words.\n15 So Bethsabee went in to the king into the chamber: now the king was very old, and Abisag the Sunamitess ministered to him.\n16 Bethsabee bowed herself, and worshipped the king. And the king said to her: What is thy will?\n17 She answered and said: My lord, thou didst swear to thy handmaid by the Lord thy God, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.\n18 And behold now Adonias reigneth, and thou, my lord the king, knowest nothing of it.\n19 He hath killed oxen, and all fat cattle, and many rams, and invited all the king's sons, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the general of the army: but Solomon thy servant he invited not.\n20 And now, my lord O king, the eyes of all Israel are upon thee, that thou shouldst tell them, who shall sit on thy throne, my lord the king, after thee.\n21 Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king sleepeth with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon shall be counted offenders.\n22 As she was yet speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet came.\n23 And they told the king, saying: Nathan the prophet is here. And when he was come in before the king, and had worshipped, bowing down to the ground,\n24 Nathan said: My lord O king, hast thou said: Let Adonias reign after me, and let him sit upon my throne?\n25 Because he is gone down to day, and hath killed oxen, and fatlings, and many rams, and invited all the king's sons, and the captains of the army, and Abiathar the priest: and they are eating and drinking before him, and saying: God save king Adonias:\n26 But me thy servant, and Sadoc the priest, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and Solomon thy servant he hath not invited.\n27 Is this word come out from my lord the king, and hast thou not told me thy servant who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?\n28 And king David answered and said: Call to me Bethsabee.

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.\n**21 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 when he was gone a little from him, a lion found him, and slew him.\n37 Then he found another man, and said to him: Strike me. And he struck him, and wounded him.\n38 So the prophet went, and met the king in the way, and disguised himself by sprinkling dust on his face and his eyes.\n39 And as the king passed by, he cried to the king, and said: Thy servant went out to fight hand to hand: and when a certain man was run away, one brought him to me, and said: Keep this man: and if he shall slip away, thy life shall be for his life, or thou shalt pay a talent of silver.\n40 And whilst I in a hurry turned this way and that, on a sudden he was not to be seen. And the king of Israel said to him: This is thy judgment, which thyself hast decreed.\n41 But he forthwith wiped off the dust from his face, and the king of Israel knew him, that he was one of the prophets.\n42 And he said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast let go out of thy hand a man worthy of death, thy life shall be for his life, and thy people for his people.\n43 And the king of Israel returned to his house, slighting to hear, and raging came into Samaria.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"Igaal the son of Nathan of Soba, Bonni of Gadi,\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of *2 Samuel*, chapter *23*.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n*2 Samuel Chapter 23*\n1 Now these are David's last words.

And I swore to thee, and I entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God: and thou becamest mine.\n9 And I washed thee with water, and cleansed away thy blood from thee: and I anointed thee with oil.\n10 And I clothed thee with embroidery, and shod thee with violet coloured shoes: and I girded thee about with fine linen, and clothed thee with fine garments.\n11 I decked thee also with ornaments, and put bracelets on thy hands, and a chain about thy neck.\n12 And I put a jewel upon thy forehead and earrings in thy ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.\n13 And thou wast adorned with gold, and silver, and wast clothed with fine linen, and embroidered work, and many colours: thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil, and wast made exceeding beautiful: and wast advanced to be a queen.\n14 And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty: for thou wast perfect through my beauty, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God.\n15 But trusting in thy beauty, thou playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and thou hast prostituted thyself to every passenger, to be his.\n16 And taking of thy garments thou hast made thee high places sewed together on each side: and hast played the harlot upon them, as hath not been done before, nor shall be hereafter.\n17 And thou tookest thy beautiful vessels, of my gold, and my silver, which I gave thee, and thou madest thee images of men, and hast committed fornication with them.\n18 And thou tookest thy garments of divers colours, and coveredst them: and settest my oil and my sweet incense before them.\n19 And my bread which I gave thee, the fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou hast set before them for a sweet odour; and it was done, saith the Lord God.\n20 And thou hast taken thy sons, and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne to me: and hast sacrificed the same to them to be devoured. Is thy fornication small?\n21 Thou hast sacrificed and given my children to them, consecrating them by fire.\n22 And after all thy abominations, and fornications, thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked, and full of confusion, trodden under foot in thy own blood.\n23 And it came to pass after all thy wickedness (woe, woe to thee, saith the Lord God)\n24 That thou didst

multiplied thy fornications to provoke me.\n27 Behold, I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and will take away thy justification: and I will deliver thee up to the will of the daughters of the

thy heart, saith the Lord God: seeing thou dost all these the works of a shameless prostitute?\n31 Because thou hast built thy brothel house at the head of every way, and thou hast made thy high place in every street: and wast not as a harlot that by disdain enhanceth her price,\n32 But as an adulteress, that bringeth in strangers over her husband.\n33 Gifts are given to all harlots: but thou hast given hire to all thy lovers, and thou hast given them gifts to come to thee from every side, to commit fornication with thee.\n34 And it hath happened in thee contrary to the custom of women in thy

strip thee of thy garments, and shall take away the vessels of thy beauty: and leave thee naked, and full of disgrace.\n40 And they shall bring upon thee a multitude, and they shall stone thee with stones, and shall slay thee with their swords.\n41 And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and shall execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and thou shalt cease from fornication, and shalt give no hire any more.\n42 And my indignation shall rest in thee: and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will cease and be angry no more.\n43 Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast provoked me in all these things: wherefore I also have turned thy ways upon thy head, saith the Lord God, and I have not done according to thy wicked deeds in all thy abominations.\n44 Behold every one that useth a common proverb, shall use this against thee, saying: As the mother was, so also is her daughter.\n45 Thou art thy mother's daughter, that cast off her husband, and her children: and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who cast off their husbands, and their children: your mother was a Cethite, and your father an Amorrhite.\n46 And thy elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister that dwelleth at thy right hand is Sodom, and her daughters.\n47 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.\n48 As I live, saith the Lord God, thy sister Sodom herself, and her daughters, have not done as thou hast done, and thy daughters.\n49 Behold this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance, and the idleness of her, and of her daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.\n50 And they were lifted up, and committed abominations before me: and I took them away as thou hast seen.\n51 And Samaria committed not half thy sins: but thou hast surpassed them with thy crimes, and hast justified thy sisters by all thy abominations which thou hast done.\n52 Therefore do thou also bear thy confusion, thou that hast surpassed thy sisters with thy sins, doing more wickedly than they: for they are justified above thee, therefore be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, thou that hast justified thy sisters.\n53 And I will bring back and restore them by bringing back Sodom, with her daughters, and by bringing back Samaria, and her daughters: and I will bring those that return of thee in the midst of them.\n**54 That thou mayest bear thy shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, comforting them.**\n55 And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall return to

And Moses prayed for the people.\n8 And the Lord said to him: Make brazen serpent, and set it up for a sign: whosoever being struck shall look on it, shall live.\n9 Moses therefore made a brazen serpent, and set it up for a sign: which when they that were bitten looked upon, they were healed.\n10 And the children of Israel setting forwards camped in Oboth.\n11 And departing thence they pitched their tents in Jeabarim, in the wilderness, that faceth Moab toward the east.\n12 And removing from thence, they came to the torrent Zared:\n13 Which they left and encamped over against Arnon, which is in the desert and standeth out on the borders of the Amorrhite. For Arnon is the border of Moab, dividing the Moabites and the Amorrhites.\n14 Wherefore it is said in the book of the wars of the Lord: As he did in the Red Sea, so will he do in the streams of Amen.\n15 The rocks of the torrents were bowed down that they might rest in Ar, and lie down in the borders of the Moabites.\n16 When they went from that place, the well appeared whereof the Lord said to Moses: Gather the people together, and I will give them water.\n17 Then Israel sung this song: Let the well spring up. They sung thereto:\n18 The well, which the princes dug, and the chiefs of the people prepared by the direction of the lawgiver, and with their staves. And they marched from the wilderness to Mathana.\n19 From Mathana unto Nahaliel: from Nahaliel unto Bamoth.\n20 From Bamoth, is a valley in the country of Moab, to the top of Phasga, which looked towards the desert.\n21 And Israel sent messengers to Sehon king of the Amorrhites, saying:\n22 I beseech thee that I may have leave to pass through thy land: we will not go aside into the fields or the vineyards, we will not drink waters of the wells, we will go the king's highway, till we be past thy borders.\n23 And he would not grant that Israel should pass by his borders: but rather gathering an army, went forth to meet them in the desert, and came to Jasa, and fought against them.\n24 And he was slain by them with the edge of the sword, and they possessed his land from the Arnon unto the Jeboc, and to the confines of the children of Ammon: for the borders of the Ammonites, were kept with a strong garrison.\n25 So Israel took all his cities, and dwelt in the cities of the Amorrhite, to wit, in Hesebon, and in the villages thereof.\n26 Hesebon was the city of Sehon the king of the Amorrhites, who fought against the king of Moab: and took all the land, that had been of his dominions, as far as the Arnon.\n27 Therefore it is said in the proverb: Come into Hesebon, let the city of Sehon be built and set up:\n28 A fire is gone out of Hesebon, a flame from the city of Sehon, and hath consumed Ar of the Moabites, and the inhabitants of the high places of the Arnon.\n29 Woe to thee Moab: thou art undone, O people of Chamos. He hath given his sons to flight, and his daughters into captivity to Sehon the king of the Amorrhites.\n30 Their yoke is perished from Hesebon unto Dibon, they came weary to Nophe, and unto Medaba.\n31 So Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorrhite.\n32 And Moses sent some to take a view of Jazer: and they took the villages of it, and conquered the inhabitants.\n33 And they turned themselves, and went up by the way of Basan, and Og the king of Basan came against them with all his people, to fight in Edrai.\n34 And the Lord said to Moses: Fear him not, for I have delivered him and all his people, and his country into thy hand: and thou shalt do to him as thou didst to Sehon the king of the Amorrhites, the inhabitant of Hesebon.\n35 So they slew him also with his sons, and all his people, not letting any one escape, and they possessed his land.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"And Jair the son of Manasses went, and took the villages thereof, and he called them Havoth Jair, that is to say, the villages of Jair.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from *Numbers*, chapter *32*.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\n*Numbers Chapter 32*\n1 And the sons of Ruben and Gad had many flocks of cattle, and their substance in beasts was infinite. And when they saw the lands of Jazer and Galaad fit for feeding cattle,\n2 They came to Moses and Eleazar the priest, and the princes of the multitude, and said:\n3 Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nemra, Hesebon, and Eleale, and Saban, and Nebo, and Beon,\n4 The land, which the Lord hath conquered in the sight of the children of Israel, is a very fertile soil for the feeding of beasts: and we thy servants have very much cattle:\n5 And we pray thee, if we have found favour in thy sight, that thou give it to us thy servants in possession, and make us not pass over the Jordan.\n6 And Moses answered them: What, shall your brethren go to fight, and will you sit here?\n7 Why do ye overturn the minds of the children of Israel, that they may not dare to pass into the place which the Lord hath given them?\n8 Was it not thus your fathers did, when I sent from Cadesbarne to view the land?\n9 And when they were come as far as the valley of the cluster, having viewed all the country, they overturned the hearts of the children of Israel, that they should not enter into the coasts, which the Lord gave them.\n10 And he swore in his anger, saying:\n11 If these men, that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land, which I promised with an oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: because they would not follow me,\n12 Except Caleb the son of Jephone the Cenezite, and Josue the son of Nun: these have fulfilled my will.\n13 And the Lord being angry against Israel, led them about through the desert forty years, until the whole generation, that had done evil in his sight, was consumed.\n14 And behold, said he, you are risen up instead of your fathers, the increase and offspring of sinful men, to augment the fury of the Lord against Israel.\n15 For if you will not follow him, he will leave the people in the wilderness, and you shall be the cause of the destruction of all.\n16 But they coming near, said: We will make sheepfolds, and stalls for our cattle, and strong cities for our children:\n17 And we ourselves will go armed and ready for battle before the children of Israel, until we bring them in unto their places. Our little ones, and all we have, shall be in walled cities, for fear of the ambushes of the inhabitants.\n18 We will not return into our houses until the children of Israel possess their inheritance:\n19 Neither will we seek any thing beyond the Jordan, because we have already our possession on the east side thereof,\n20 And Moses said to them: If you do what you promise, go on well appointed for war before the Lord:\n21 And let every fighting man pass over the Jordan, until the Lord overthrow his enemies:\n22 And all the land be brought under him, then shall you be blameless before the Lord and before Israel, and you shall obtain the countries that you desire, before the Lord.\n23 But if you do not what you say, no man can doubt but you sin against God: and know ye, that your sin shall overtake you.\n24 Build therefore cities for your children, and folds and stalls for your sheep and beasts, and accomplish what you have promised.\n25 And the children of Gad and Ruben said to Moses: We are thy servants, we will do what my lord commandeth.\n26 We will leave our children, and our wives and sheep and cattle, in the cities of Galaad:\n27 And we thy servants all well appointed will march on to the war, as thou, my lord, speakest.\n28 Moses therefore commanded Eleazar the priest, and Josue the son of Nun, and the princes of the families of all the tribes of Israel, and said to them:\n29 If the children of Gad, and the children of Ruben pass with you over the Jordan, all armed for war before the Lord, and the land be made subject to you: give them Galaad in possession.\n30 But if they will not pass armed with you into the land of Chanaan, let them receive places to dwell in among you.\n31 And the children of Gad, and the children of Ruben answered: As the Lord hath spoken to his servants, so will we do:\n32 We will go armed before the Lord into the land of Chanaan, and we confess that we have already received our possession beyond the Jordan.\n33 Moses therefore gave to the children of Cad and of Ruben, and to the half tribe of Manasses the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sehon king of the Amorrhites, and the kingdom of Og king of Basan, and their land and the cities thereof round about.\n34 And the sons of Cad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,\n35 And Etroth, and Sophan, and Jazer, and Jegbaa,\n36 And Bethnemra, and Betharan, fenced cities, and folds for their cattle.\n37 But the children of Ruben built Hesebon, and Eleale, and Cariathaim,\n38 And Nabo, and Baalmeon (their names being changed) and Sabama: giving names to the cities which they had built.\n39 Moreover the children of Machir, the son of Manasses, went into Galaad, and wasted it, cutting off the Amorrhites, the inhabitants thereof.\n40 And Moses gave the land of Galaad to Machir the son of Manasses, and he dwelt in it.\n**41 And Jair the son of Manasses went, and took the villages thereof, and he called them Havoth Jair, that is to say, the villages of Jair.**\n42 Nobe also went, and took Canath with the villages thereof: and he called it by his own name, Nobe.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you quote Proverbs 23:11 for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, Proverbs chapter 23, verse 11 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"For their near kinsman is strong: and he will judge their cause against thee.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"As when the thickness of the earth is broken up upon the ground: Our bones are scattered by the side of hell.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're asking about is in *Psalm*, chapter *140*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*Psalm Chapter 140*\n1 I have cried to the, O Lord, hear me: hearken to my voice, when I cry to thee.\n2 Let my prayer be directed as incense in thy sight; the lifting up of my hands, as evening sacrifice.\n3 Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth: and a door round about my lips.\n4 Incline not my heart to evil words; to make excuses in sins.

But if it be a shame to a woman to be shorn or made bald, let her cover her head.\n7 The man indeed ought not to cover his head, because he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man.\n8 For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man.\n9 For the man was not created for the woman, but the woman for the man.\n10 Therefore ought the woman to have a power over her head, because of the angels.\n11 But yet neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man, in the Lord.\n12 For as the woman is of the man, so also is the man by the woman: but all things of God.\n13 You yourselves judge: doth it become a woman, to pray unto God uncovered?\n14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that a man indeed, if he nourish his hair, it is a shame unto him?\n15 But if a woman nourish her hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a covering.\n16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor the church of God.\n17 Now this I ordain: not praising you, that you come together not for the better, but for the worse.\n18 For first of all I hear that when you come together in the church, there are schisms among you; and in part I believe it.\n19 For there must be also heresies: that they also, who are approved, may be made manifest among you.\n20 When you come therefore together into one place, it is not now to eat the Lord's supper.\n21 For every one taketh before his own supper to eat.

God: Woe to them that sew cushions under every elbow: and make pillows for the heads of persons of every age to catch souls: and when they caught the souls of my people, they gave life to their souls.\n19 And they violated me among my people, for a handful of barley, and a piece of bread, to kill souls which should not die, and to save souls alive which should not live, telling lies to my people that believe lies.\n20 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold I declare against your cushions, wherewith you catch flying souls: and I will tear them off from your arms: and I will let go the souls that you catch, the souls that should fly.\n21 And I will tear your pillows, and will deliver my people out of your hand, neither shall they be any more in your hands to be a prey: and you

comes from *1 Maccabees*, chapter *6*.\n\nCheck out the whole chapter:\n*1 Maccabees Chapter 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.\n**33 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. 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": "Tell me what 1 Peter 1:10 says", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from 1 Peter 1:10 in the New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and diligently searched, who prophesied of the grace to come in you.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"And as soon as she knew Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for joy, but running in she told that Peter stood before the gate.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're asking about is in *Acts*, chapter *12*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*Acts Chapter 12*\n1 And at the same time, Herod the king stretched forth his hands, to afflict some of the church.\n2 And he killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.\n3 And seeing that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to take up Peter also.

Who can forgive sins, but God alone?\n22 And when Jesus knew their thoughts, answering, he said to them: What is it you think in your hearts?\n23 Which is easier to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Arise and walk?\n24 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,) I say to thee, Arise, take up thy bed, and go into thy house.\n25 And immediately rising up before them, he took up the bed on which he lay; and he went away to his own house, glorifying God.\n26 And all were astonished; and they glorified God.

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.\n**23 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?

the multitude stood on the shore.\n3 And he spoke to them many things in parables, saying: Behold the sower went forth to sow.\n4 And whilst he soweth some fell by the way side, and the birds of the air came and ate them up.\n5 And other some fell upon stony ground, where they had not much earth: and they sprung up immediately, because they had no deepness of earth.\n6 And when the sun was up they were scorched: and because they had not root, they withered away.\n7 And others fell among thorns: and the thorns grew up and choked them.\n8 And others fell upon good ground: and they brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, and some thirtyfold.\n9 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.\n10 And his disciples came and said to him: Why speakest thou to them in parables?\n11 Who answered and said to them: Because to you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven: but to them it is not given.\n12 For he that hath, to him shall be given, and he shall abound: but he that hath not, from him shall be taken away that also which he hath.\n13 Therefore do I speak to them in parables: because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.\n14 And the prophecy of Isaias is fulfilled in them, who saith: By hearing you shall hear, and shall not understand: and seeing you shall see, and shall not perceive.\n15 For the heart of this people is grown gross, and with their ears they have been dull of hearing, and their eyes they have shut: lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.\n16 But blessed are your eyes, because they see, and your ears, because they hear.\n17 For, amen, I say to you, many prophets and just men 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.\n18 Hear you therefore the parable of the sower.\n19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, there cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart: this is he that received the seed by the way side.\n20 And he that received the seed upon stony ground, is he that heareth the word, and immediately receiveth it with joy.\n21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but is only for a time: and when there ariseth tribulation and persecution because of the word, he is presently scandalized.\n22 And he that received the seed among thorns, is he that heareth the word, and the care of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choketh up the word, and he becometh fruitless.\n23 But he that received the seed upon good ground, is he that heareth the word, and understandeth, and beareth fruit, and yieldeth the one an hundredfold, and another sixty, and another thirty.\n24 Another parable he proposed to them, saying: The kingdom of heaven is likened to a man that sowed good seeds in his field.\n25 But while men were asleep, his enemy came and oversowed cockle among the wheat and went his way.\n26 And when the blade was sprung up, and had brought forth fruit, then appeared also the cockle.\n27 And the servants of the goodman of the house coming said to him: Sir, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field? whence then hath it cockle?\n28 And he said to them: An enemy hath done this. And the servants said to him: Wilt thou that we go and gather it up?\n29 And he said: No, lest perhaps gathering up the cockle, you root up the wheat also together with it.\n30 Suffer both to grow until the harvest, and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers: Gather up first the cockle, and bind it into bundles to burn, but the wheat gather ye into my barn.\n31 Another parable he proposed unto them, saying: The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field.\n32 Which is the least indeed of all seeds; but when it is grown up, it is greater than all herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come, and dwell in the branches thereof.\n33 Another parable he spoke to them: The kingdom of heaven is like to leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, until the whole was leavened.\n34 All these things Jesus spoke in parables to the multitudes: and without parables he did not speak to them.\n35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying: I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world.\n36 Then having sent away the multitudes, he came into the house, and his disciples came to him, saying: Expound to us the parable of the cockle of the field.\n37 Who made answer and said to them: He that soweth the good seed, is the Son of man.\n38 And the field, is the world. And the good seed are the children of the kingdom. And the cockle, are the children of the wicked one.\n39 And the enemy that sowed them, is the devil. But the harvest is the end of the world.

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?

And the fire of the Lord being kindled against them, devoured them that were at the uttermost part of the camp.\n2 And when the people cried to Moses, Moses prayed to the Lord, and the fire was swallowed up.\n3 And he called the name of that place, The burning: for that the fire of the Lord had been kindled against them.\n4 For a mixt multitude of people, that came up with them, burned with desire, sitting and weeping, the children of Israel also being joined with them, and said: Who shall give us flesh to eat?\n5 We remember the Ash that we ate in Egypt free cost: the cucumbers come into our mind, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic.\n6 Our soul is dry, our eyes behold nothing else but manna.\n7 A Now the manna was like coriander seed, of the colour of bdellium.\n8 And the people went about, and gathering it, ground it in a mill, or beat it in a mortar, and boiled it in a pot, and made cakes thereof of the taste of bread tempered with oil.\n9 And when the dew fell in the night upon the camp, the manna also fell with it.\n10 Now Moses heard the people weeping by their families, every one at the door of his tent. And the wrath of the Lord was exceedingly enkindled: to Moses also the thing seemed insupportable.\n11 And he said to the Lord: Why hast thou afflicted thy servant? wherefore do I not find favour before thee? and why hast thou laid the weight of all this people upon me?\n12 Have I conceived all this multitude, or begotten them, that thou shouldst say to me: Carry them in thy bosom as the nurse is wont to carry the little infant, and bear them into the land, for which thou hast sworn to their fathers?\n13 Whence should I have flesh to give to so great a multitude? they weep against me, saying: Give us flesh that we may eat.\n14 I am not able alone to bear all this people, because it is too heavy for me.\n15 But if it seem unto thee otherwise, I beseech thee to kill me, and let me find grace in thy eyes, that I be not afflicted with so great evils.\n16 And the Lord said to Moses: Gather unto me seventy men of the ancients of Israel, whom thou knowest to be ancients and masters of the people: and thou shalt bring them to the door of the tabernacle of the covenant, and shalt make them stand there with thee,\n17 That I may come down and speak with thee: and I will take of thy spirit, and will give to them, that they may bear with thee the burden of the people, and thou mayest not be burthened alone.\n18 And thou shalt say to the people: Be ye sanctified: to morrow you shall eat flesh: for I have heard you say: Who will give us flesh to eat? it was well with us in Egypt. That the Lord may give you flesh, and you may eat:\n**19 Not for one day, nor two, nor five, nor ten, no nor for twenty.**\n20 But even for a month of days, till it come out at your nostrils, and become loathsome to you, because you have cast off the Lord, who is in the midst of you, and have wept before him, saying: Why came we out of Egypt?\n21 And Moses said: There are six hundred thousand footmen of this people, and sayest thou: I will give them flesh to eat a whole month?\n22 Shall then a multitude of sheep and oxen be killed, that it may suffice for their food? or shall the fishes of the sea be gathered together to fill them?\n23 And the Lord answered him: Is the hand of the Lord unable?

Wherefore he also in the next place, received the torments of the first:\n9 And when he was at the last gasp, he said thus: Thou indeed, O most wicked man, destroyest us out of this present life: but the King of the world will raise us up, who die for his laws, in the resurrection of eternal life.\n10 After him the third was made a mocking stock, and when he was required, he quickly put forth his tongue, and courageously stretched out his hands:\n11 And said with confidence: These I have from heaven, but for the laws of God I now despise them: because I hope to receive them again from him.\n12 So that the king, and they that were with him, wondered at the young man's courage, because he esteemed the torments as nothing.\n13 And after he was thus dead, they tormented the fourth in the like manner.\n14 And when he was now ready to die, he spoke thus: It is better, being put to death by men, to look for hope from God, to be raised up again by him: for, as to thee thou shalt have no resurrection unto life.\n15 And when they had brought the fifth, they tormented him. 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:\n**29 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?

For they shall eat them secretly for the want of all things, in the siege and distress, wherewith thy enemy shall oppress thee within thy gates.\n58 If thou wilt not keep, and fulfill all the words of this law, that are written in this volume, and fear his glorious and terrible name: that is, The Lord thy God:\n59 The Lord shall increase thy plagues, and the plagues of thy seed, plagues great and lasting, infirmities grievous and perpetual.\n60 And he shall bring back on thee all the afflictions of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of, and they shall stick fast to thee.\n61 Moreover the Lord will bring upon thee all the diseases, and plagues, that are not written in the volume of this law till he consume thee:\n62 And you shall remain few in number, who before were as the stars of heaven for multitude, because thou heardst not the voice of the Lord thy God.\n63 And as the Lord rejoiced upon you before doing good to you, and multiplying you: so he shall rejoice destroying and bringing you to nought, so that you shall be taken away from the land which thou shalt go in to possess.\n64 The Lord shall scatter thee among all people, from the farthest parts of the earth to the ends thereof: and there thou shalt serve strange gods, which both thou art ignorant of and thy fathers, wood and stone.\n65 Neither shalt thou be quiet, even in those nations, nor shall there be any rest for the sole of thy foot. For the Lord will give thee a fearful heart, and languishing eyes, and a soul consumed with pensiveness:\n66 And thy life shall be as it were hanging before thee. Thou shalt fear night and day, neither shalt thou trust thy life.\n67 In the morning thou shalt say: Who will grant me evening? and at evening: Who will grant me morning? for the fearfulness of thy heart, wherewith thou shalt be terrified, and for those things which thou shalt see with thy eyes.\n68 The Lord shall bring thee again with ships into Egypt, by the way whereof he said to thee that thou shouldst see it no more.

Jesus therefore being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well. It was about the sixth hour.\n7 There cometh a woman of Samaria, to draw water. Jesus saith to her: Give me to drink.\n8 For his disciples were gone into the city to buy meats.\n9 Then that Samaritan woman saith to him: How dost thou, being a Jew, ask of me to drink, who am a Samaritan woman? For the Jews do not communicate with the Samaritans.\n10 Jesus answered, and said to her: If thou didst know the gift of God, and who he is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou perhaps wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.\n11 The woman saith to him: Sir, thou hast nothing wherein to draw, and the well is deep; from whence then hast thou living water?\n12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?\n13 Jesus answered, and said to her: Whosoever drinketh of this water, shall thirst again; but he that shall drink of the water that I will give him, shall not thirst for ever:\n14 But the water that I will give him, shall become in him a fountain of water, springing up into life everlasting.\n**15 The woman saith to him: Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.**\n16 Jesus saith to her: Go, call thy husband, and come hither.\n17 The woman answered, and said: I have no husband.

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.

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 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.\n**59 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.

But David took the castle of Sion, which is the city of David.\n6 And he said: Whosoever shall first strike the Jebusites, shall be the head and chief captain. And Joab the son of Sarvia went up first, and was made the general.\n7 And David dwelt in the castle, and therefore it was called the city of David.\n8 And he built the city round about from Mello all round, and Joab built the rest of the city.\n9 And David went on growing and increasing, and the Lord of hosts was with him.\n10 These are the chief of the valiant men of David, who helped him to be made king over all Israel, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke to Israel.\n11 And this is the number of the heroes of David: Jesbaam the son of Hachamoni the chief among the thirty: he lifted up his spear against three hundred wounded by him at one time.\n12 And after him was Eleazar his uncle's son the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighties.\n13 He was with David in Phesdomim, when the Philistines were gathered to that place to battle: and the field of that country was full of barley, and the people fled from before the Philistines.\n14 But these men stood in the midst of the field, and defended it: and they slew the Philistines, and the Lord gave a great deliverance to his people.\n15 And three of the thirty captains went down to the rock, wherein David was, to the cave of Odollam, when the Philistines encamped in the valley of Raphaim.\n16 And David was in a hold, and the garrison of the Philistines in Bethlehem.\n17 And David longed, and said: O that some man would give me water of the cistern of Bethlehem, which is in the gate.\n18 And these three broke through the midst of the camp of the Philistines, and drew water out of the cistern of Bethlehem, which was in the gate, and brought it to David to drink: and he would not drink of it, but rather offered it to the Lord,\n19 Saying: God forbid that I should do this in the sight of my God, and should drink the blood of these men: for with the danger of their lives they have brought me the water.

And when they had passed through mount Ephraim,\n4 And through the land of Salisa, and had not found them, they passed also through the land of Salim, and they were not there: and through the land of Jemini, and found them not.\n5 And when they were come to the land of Suph, Saul said to the servant that was with him: Come, let us return, lest perhaps my father forget the asses, and be concerned for us.\n6 And he said to him: Behold there is a man of God in this city, a famous man: all that he saith, cometh certainly to pass. Now therefore let us go thither, perhaps he may tell us of our way, for which we are come.\n7 And Saul said to his servant: Behold we will go: but what shall we carry to the man of God? the bread is spent in our bags: and we have no present to make to the man of God, nor any thing at all.\n8 The servant answered Saul again, and said: Behold there is found in my hand the fourth part of a sicle of silver, let us give it to the man of God, that he may tell us our way.\n9 Now in time past, in Israel when a man went to consult God he spoke thus: Come, let us go to the seer.

And they went into the city, where the man of God was.\n11 And when they went up the ascent to the city, they found maids coming out to draw water, and they said to them: Is the seer here?\n12 They answered and said to them: He is: behold he is before you, make haste now: for he came to day into the city, for there is a sacrifice of the people to day in the high place.\n13 As soon as you come into the city, you shall immediately find him, before he go up to the high place to eat: for the people will not eat till he come: because he blesseth the victim, and afterwards they eat that are invited.

Maccabees*, chapter *4*.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n*1 Maccabees Chapter 4*\n1 Then Gorgias took five thousand men, and a thousand of the best horsemen: and they removed out of the camp by night.\n2 That they might come upon the camp of the Jews, and strike them suddenly: and the men that were of the castle were their guides.\n3 And Judas heard of it, and rose up, he and the valiant men, to attack the king's forces that were in Emmaus.\n4 For as yet the army was dispersed from the camp.\n5 And Gorgias came by night into the camp of Judas, and found no man, and he sought them in the mountains: for he said: These men flee from us.\n6 And when it was day, Judas shewed himself in the plain with three thousand men only, who neither had armour nor swords.\n7 And they saw the camp of the Gentiles that it was strong, and the men in breastplates, and the horsemen round about them, and these were trained up to war.\n8 And Judas said to the men that were with him: Fear ye not their multitude, neither be ye afraid of their assault.\n9 Remember in what manner our fathers were saved in the Red Sea, when Pharao pursued them with a great army.\n10 And now let us cry to heaven: and the Lord will have mercy on us, and will remember the covenant of our fathers, and will destroy this army before our face this day:\n11 And all nations shall know that there is one that redeemeth and delivereth Israel.\n12 And the strangers lifted up their eyes, and saw them coming against them.\n13 And they went out of the camp to battle, and they that were with Judas sounded the trumpet.\n14 And they joined battle: and the Gentiles were routed, and fled into the plain.\n15 But all the hindmost of them fell by the sword, and they pursued them as far as Gezeron, and even to the plains of Idumea, and of Azotus, and of Jamnia: and there fell of them to the number of three thousand men.\n16 And Judas returned again with his army that followed him,\n**17 And he said to the people: Be not greedy of the spoils: for there is war before us:**\n18 And Gorgias and his army are near us in the mountain: but stand ye now against our enemies, and overthrow them, and you shall take the spoils afterwards with safety.\n19 And as Judas was speaking these words, behold part of them appeared looking forth from the mountain.\n20 And Gorgias saw that his men were put to flight, and that they had set fire to the camp: for the smoke that was seen declared what was done.\n21 And when they had seen this, they were seized with great fear, seeing at the same time Judas and his army in the plain ready to fight.\n22 So they all fled away into the land of the strangers.\n23 And Judas returned to take the spoils of the camp, and they got much gold, and silver, and blue silk, and purple of the sea, and great riches.\n24 And returning home they sung a hymn, and blessed God in heaven, because he is good, because his mercy endureth for ever.\n25 So Israel had a great deliverance that day.\n26 And such of the strangers as escaped, went and told Lysias all that had happened.\n27 And when he heard these things, he was amazed and discouraged: because things had not succeeded in Israel according to his mind, and as the king had commanded.\n28 So the year following Lysias gathered together threescore thousand chosen men, and five thousand horsemen, that he might subdue them.\n29 And they came into Judea, and pitched their tents in Bethoron, and Judas met them with ten thousand men.\n30 And they saw that the army was strong, and he prayed, and said: Blessed art thou, O Saviour of Israel, who didst break the violence of the mighty by the hand of thy servant David, and didst deliver up the camp of the strangers into the hands of Jonathan the son of Saul and of his armourbearer.\n31 Shut up this army in the hands of thy people Israel, and let them be confounded in their host and their horsemen.\n32 Strike them with fear, and cause the boldness of their strength to languish, and let them quake at their own destruction.\n33 Cast them down with the sword of them that love thee: and let all that know thy name, praise thee with hymns.\n34 And they joined battle: and there fell of the army of Lysias five thousand men.\n35 And when Lysias saw that his men were put to flight, and how bold the Jews were, and that they were ready either to live, or to die manfully, he went to Antioch, and chose soldiers, that they might come again into Judea with greater numbers.\n36 Then Judas, and his brethren said: Behold our enemies are discomfited: let us go up now to cleanse the holy places and to repair them.\n37 And all the army assembled together, and they went up into mount Sion.\n38 And they saw the sanctuary desolate, and the altar profaned, and the gates burnt, and shrubs growing up in the courts as in a forest, or on the mountains, and the chambers joining to the temple thrown down.\n39 And they rent their garments, and made great lamentation, and put ashes on their heads:\n40 And they fell face down to the ground on their faces, and they sounded with the trumpets of alarm, and they cried towards heaven.\n41 Then Judas appointed men to fight against them that were in the castle, till they had cleansed the holy places.\n42 And he chose priests without blemish, whose will was set upon the law of God:\n43 And they cleansed the holy places, and took away the stones that had been defiled into an unclean place.\n44 And he considered about the altar of holocausts that had been profaned, what he should do with it.\n45 And a good counsel came into their minds, to pull it down: lest it should be a reproach to them, because the Gentiles had defiled it; so they threw it down.\n46 And they laid up the stones in the mountain of the temple in a convenient place, till there should come a prophet, and give answer concerning them.\n47 Then they took whole stones according to the law, and built a new altar according to the former:\n48 And they built up the holy places, and the things that were within the temple: and they sanctified the temple, and the courts.\n49 And they made new holy vessels, and brought in the candlestick, and the altar of incense, and the table into the temple.\n50 And they put incense upon the altar, and lighted up the lamps that were upon the candlestick, and they gave light in the temple.\n51 And they set the loaves upon the table, and hung up the veils, and finished all the works that they had begun to make.\n52 And they arose before the morning on the five and twentieth day of the ninth month (which is the month of Casleu) in the hundred and forty-eighth year.\n53 And they offered sacrifice according to the law upon the new altar of holocausts which they had made.\n54 According to the time, and according to the day wherein the heathens had defiled it, in the same was it dedicated anew with canticles, and harps, and lutes, and cymbals.\n55 And all the people fell upon their faces, and adored, and blessed up to heaven, him that had prospered them.\n56 And they kept the dedication of the altar eight days, and they offered holocausts with joy, and sacrifices of salvation, and of praise.\n57 And they adorned the front of the temple with crowns of gold, and escutcheons, and they renewed the gates, and the chambers, and hanged doors upon them.\n58 And there was exceeding great joy among the people, and the reproach of the Gentiles was turned away.\n59 And Judas, and his brethren, and all the church of Israel decreed, that the day of the dedication of the altar should be kept in its season from year to year for eight days, from the five and twentieth day of the month of Casleu, with joy and gladness.\n60 They built up also at that time mount Sion, with high walls, and strong towers round about, lest the Gentiles should at any time come, and tread it down as they did before.\n61 And he placed a garrison there to keep it, and he fortified it to secure Bethsura, that the people might have a defence against Idumea.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"Is not this David, to whom they sung in their dances, saying: Saul

David his father.\n3 But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel: moreover he consecrated also his son, making him pass through the fire according to the idols of the nations: which the Lord destroyed before the children of Israel.\n4 He sacrificed also and burnt incense in the high places and on the hills, and under every green tree.\n5 Then Basin king of Syria, and Phacee son of Romelia king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to fight: and they besieged Achaz, but were not able to overcome him.\n6 At that time Rasin king of Syria restored Aila to Syria, and drove the men of Juda out of Aila: and the Edomites came into Aila, and dwelt there unto this day.\n7 And Achaz sent messengers to Theglathphalasar king of the Assyrians, saying: I am thy servant, and thy son: come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who are risen up together against me.\n8 And when he had gathered together the silver and gold that could be found in the house of the Lord, and in the king's treasures, he sent it for a present to the king of the Assyrians.\n9 And he agreed to his desire: for the king of the Assyrians went up against Damascus, and laid it waste: and he carried away the inhabitants thereof to Cyrene, but Basin he slew.\n10 And king Achaz went to Damascus to meet Theglathphalasar king of the Assyrians, and when he had seen the altar of Damascus, king Achaz sent to Urias the priest a pattern of it, and its likeness according to all the work thereof.\n11 And Urias the priest built an altar according to all that king Achaz had commanded from Damascus, so did Urias the priest, until king Achaz came from Damascus.\n**12 And when the king was come from Damascus, he saw the altar and worshipped it: and went up and offered holocausts, and his own sacrifice.**\n13 And offered libations and poured the blood of the peace offerings, which he had offered upon the altar.\n14 But the altar of brass that was before the Lord, he removed from the face of the temple, and from the place of the altar, and from the place of the temple of the Lord: and he set it at the side of the altar toward the north.\n15 And king Achaz commanded Urias the priest saying: Upon the great altar offer the morning holocaust, and the evening sacrifice, and the king's holocaust, and his sacrifice, and the holocaust of the whole people of the land, and their sacrifices, and their libations: and all the blood of the holocaust, and all the blood of the victim thou shalt pour out upon it: but the altar of brass shall be ready at my

the brazen oxen that held it up, and put it upon a pavement of stone.\n18 The Musach also for the sabbath, which he had built in the temple: and the king's entry from without he turned into the temple

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 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. And he said: Hear, all ye people.\n29 So the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda went up to Ramoth Galaad.\n30 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Take armour, and go into the battle, and put on thy own garments. But the king of Israel changed his dress, and went into the battle.\n31 And the king of Syria had commanded the two and thirty captains of the chariots, saying: You shall not fight against any, small or great, but against the king of Israel only.\n32 So when the captains of the chariots saw Josaphat, they suspected that he was the king of Israel, and making a violent assault they fought against him: and Josaphat cried out.\n33 And the captains of the chariots perceived that he was not the king of and they turned away from him.\n34 And a certain man bent his bow, shooting at a venture, and chanced to strike the king of Israel between the lungs and the stomach.

And Josaphat would not.\n51 And Josaphat slept with his fathers. and was buried with them in the city of David his father: and Joram his son reigned in his stead.\n52 And Ochozias the son of Achab began to reign over Israel in Samaria, in the seventeenth year of Josaphat king of Juda, and he reigned over Israel two years,\n53 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the way of his father and his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.\n54 He served also Baal, and worshipped him, and provoked the Lord the God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "2 Kings 13:21 please", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from 2 Kings 13:21 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And some that were burying a man, saw the rovers, and cast the body into the sepulchre of Eliseus.

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. And when they were come to Balaam, and had told him all the words of Balac:\n8 He answered: Tarry here this night, and I will answer whatsoever the Lord shall say to me.

Why strikest thou me, lo, now this third time?\n29 Balaam answered: Because thou hast deserved it, and hast served me ill: I would I had a sword that I might kill thee.\n30 The ass said: Am not I thy beast, on which thou hast been always accustomed to ride until this present day? tell me if I ever did the like thing to thee. But he said: Never.\n31 Forthwith the Lord opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel standing in the way with a drawn sword, and he worshipped him falling flat on the ground.\n32 And the angel said to him: Why beatest thou thy ass these three times? I am come to withstand thee, because thy way is perverse, and contrary to me:\n33 And unless the ass had turned out of the way, giving place to me who stood against thee, I had slain thee, and she should have lived.\n34 Balaam said: I have sinned, not knowing that thou didst stand against me: and now if it displease thee that I go, I will return.\n35 The angel said: Go with these men, and see thou speak no other thing than what I shall command thee.

And he swore unto him.\n24 And Miphiboseth the son of Saul came down to meet the king, and he had neither washed his feet, nor trimmed his beard: nor washed his garments from the day that the king went out, until the day of his return in peace.\n25 And when he met the king at Jerusalem, the king said to him: Why camest thou not with me, Miphiboseth?\n26 And he answering, said: My lord, O king, my servant despised me: for I thy servant spoke to him to saddle me an ass, that I might get on and go with the king: for I thy servant am lame.\n27 Moreover he hath also accused me thy servant to thee, my lord the king: but thou my lord the king art as an angel of God, do what pleaseth thee.\n28 For all of my father's house were no better than worthy of death before my lord the king; and thou hast set me thy servant among the guests of thy table: what just complaint therefore have I? or what right to cry any more to the king?\n29 Then the king said to him: Why speakest thou any more? what I have said is determined: thou and Siba divide the possessions.\n30 And Miphiboseth answered the king: Yea, let him take all, for as much as my lord the king is returned peaceably into his house.\n31 Berzellai also the Galaadite coming down from Rogelim, brought the king over the Jordan, being ready also to wait on him beyond the river.\n32 Now Berzellai the Galaadite was of a great age, that is to say, fourscore years old, and he provided the king with sustenance when he abode in the camp: for he was a man exceeding rich.\n33 And the king said to Berzellai: Come with me that thou mayest rest secure with me in Jerusalem.\n**34 And Berzellai said to the king: How many are the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?**\n35 I am this day fourscore years old, are my senses quick to discern sweet and bitter? or can meat or drink delight thy servant? or can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? why should thy servant be a burden to my lord, the king?\n36 I thy servant will go on a little way from the Jordan with thee: I need not this recompense.\n37 But I beseech thee let thy servant return, and die in my own city, and be buried by the sepulchre of my father, and of my mother. But there is thy servant Chamaam, let him go with thee, my lord, the king, and do to him whatsoever seemeth good to thee.\n38 Then the king said to him: Let Chamaam go over with me, and I will do for him whatsoever shall please thee, and all that thou shalt ask of me, thou shalt obtain.\n39 And when all the people and the king had passed over the Jordan, the king kissed Berzellai, and blessed him: and he returned to his own place.\n40 So the king went on to Galgal, and Chamaam with him. Now all the people of Juda had brought the king over, and only half of the people of Israel were there.\n41 Therefore all the men of Israel running together to the king, said to him: Why have our brethren the men of Juda stolen thee away, and have brought the king and his household over the Jordan, and all the men of David with him?\n42 And all the men of Juda answered the men of Israel: Because the king is nearer to me: why art thou angry for this matter? have we eaten any thing of the king's, or have any gifts been given us?\n43 And the men of Israel answered the men of Juda, and said: I have ten parts in the king more than thou, and David belongeth to me more than to thee: why hast thou done me a wrong, and why was it not told me first, that I might bring back my king?

By what doth a young man correct his way? by observing thy words.\n10 With my whole heart have I sought after thee: let me not stray from thy commandments.\n11 Thy words have I hidden in my heart, that I may not sin against thee.\n12 Blessed art thou, O Lord: teach me thy justifications.\n13 With my lips I have pronounced all the judgments of thy mouth.\n14 I have been delighted in the way of thy testimonies, as in all riches.\n15 I will meditate on thy commandments: and I will consider thy ways.\n**16 I will think of thy justifications: I will not forget thy words.**\n17 GIMEL. Give bountifully to thy servant, enliven me: and I shall keep thy words.\n18 Open thou my eyes: and I will consider the wondrous things of thy law.\n19 I am a sojourner on the earth: hide not thy commandments from me.\n20 My soul hath coveted to long for thy justifications, at all times.\n21 Thou hast rebuked the proud: they are cursed who decline from thy commandments.\n22 Remove from reproach and contempt: because I have sought after thy testimonies.\n23 For princes sat, and spoke against me: but thy servant was employed in thy justifications.\n24 For thy testimonies are my meditation: and thy justifications my counsel.\n25 DALETH. My soul hath cleaved to the pavement: quicken thou me according to thy word.\n26 I have declared my ways, and thou hast heard me: teach me thy justifications.\n27 Make me to understand the way of thy justifications: and I shall be exercised in thy wondrous works.\n28 My soul hath slumbered through heaviness: strengthen thou me in thy words.\n29 Remove from me the way of iniquity: and out of thy law have mercy on me.\n30 I have chosen the way of truth: thy judgments I have not forgotten.\n31 I have stuck to thy testimonies, O Lord: put me not to shame.\n32 I have run the way of thy commandments, when thou didst enlarge my heart.\n33 HE. Set before me for a law the way of thy justifications, O Lord: and I will always seek after it.\n34 Give me understanding, and I will search thy law; and I will keep it with my whole heart.\n35 Lead me into the path of thy commandments; for this same I have desired.\n36 Incline my heart into thy testimonies and not to covetousness.\n37 Turn away my eyes that they may not behold vanity: quicken me in thy way.\n38 Establish thy word to thy servant, in thy fear.\n39 Turn away my reproach, which I have apprehended: for thy judgments are delightful.\n40 Behold I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy justice.\n41 VAU. Let thy mercy also come upon me, O Lord: thy salvation according to thy word.\n42 So shall I answer them that reproach me in any thing; that I have trusted in thy words.\n43 And take not thou the word of truth utterly out of my mouth: for in thy words have I hoped exceedingly.\n44 So shall I always keep thy law, for ever and ever.\n45 And I walked at large: because I have sought after thy commandments.\n46 And I spoke of thy testimonies before kings: and I was not ashamed.\n47 I meditated also on thy commandments, which I loved.\n48 And I lifted up my hands to thy commandments, which I loved: and I was exercised in thy justifications.\n49 ZAIN. Be thou mindful of thy word to thy servant, in which thou hast given me hope.\n50 This hath comforted me in my humiliation: because thy word hath enlivened me.\n51 The proud did iniquitously altogether: but I declined not from thy law.\n52 I remembered, O Lord, thy judgments of old: and I was comforted.\n53 A fainting hath taken hold of me, because of the wicked that forsake thy law.\n54 Thy justifications were the subject of my song, in the place of my pilgrimage.\n55 In the night I have remembered thy name, O Lord: and have kept thy law.\n56 This happened to me: because I sought after thy justifications.\n57 HETH. O Lord, my portion, I have said, I would keep the law.\n58 I entreated thy face with all my heart: have mercy on me according to thy word.\n59 I have thought on my ways: and turned my feet unto thy testimonies.\n60 I am ready, and am not troubled: that I may keep thy commandments.\n61 The cords of the wicked have encompassed me: but I have not forgotten thy law.\n62 I rose at midnight to give praise to thee; for the judgments of thy justification.\n63 I am a partaker with all them that fear thee, and that keep thy commandments.\n64 The earth, O Lord, is full of thy mercy: teach me thy justifications.\n65 TETH. Thou hast done well with thy servant, O Lord, according to thy word.\n66 Teach me goodness and discipline and knowledge; for I have believed thy commandments.\n67 Before I was humbled I offended; therefore have I kept thy word.\n68 Thou art good; and in thy goodness teach me thy justifications.\n69 The iniquity of the proud hath been multiplied over me: but I will seek thy commandments with my whole heart.\n70 Their heart is curdled like milk: but I have meditated on thy law.\n71 It is good for me that thou hast humbled me, that I may learn thy justifications.\n72 The law of thy mouth is good to me, above thousands of gold and silver.\n73 JOD. Thy hands have made me and formed me: give me understanding, and I will learn thy commandments.\n74 They that fear thee shall see me, and shall be glad: because I have greatly hoped in thy words.\n75 I know, O Lord, that thy judgments are equity: and in thy truth thou hast humbled me.\n76 O! let thy mercy be for my comfort, according to thy word unto thy servant.\n77 Let thy tender mercies come unto me, and I shall live: for thy law is my meditation.\n78 Let the proud be ashamed, because they have done unjustly towards me: but I will be employed in thy commandments.\n79 Let them that fear thee turn to me and they that know thy testimonies.\n80 Let my heart be undefiled in thy justifications, that I may not be confounded.\n81 CAPH. My soul hath fainted after thy salvation: and in thy word I have very much hoped.\n82 My eyes have failed for thy word, saying: When wilt thou comfort me?\n83 For I am become like a bottle in the frost: I have not forgotten thy justifications.\n84 How many are the days of thy servant: when wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?\n85 The wicked have told me fables: but not as thy law.\n86 All thy statutes are truth: they have persecuted me unjustly, do thou help me.\n87 They had almost made an end of me upon earth: but I have not forsaken thy commandments.\n88 Quicken thou me according to thy mercy: and I shall keep the testimonies of thy mouth.\n89 LAMED. For ever, O Lord, thy word standeth firm in heaven.\n90 Thy truth unto all generations: thou hast founded the earth, and it continueth.\n91 By thy ordinance the day goeth on: for all things serve thee.\n92 Unless thy law had been my meditation, I had then perhaps perished in my abjection.\n93 Thy justifications I will never forget: for by them thou hast given me life.\n94 I am thine, save thou me: for I have sought thy justifications.\n95 The wicked have waited for me to destroy me: but I have understood thy testimonies.\n96 I have seen an end to all persecution: thy commandment is exceeding broad.\n97 MEM. O how have I loved thy law, O Lord! it is my meditation all the day.\n98 Through thy commandment, thou hast made me wiser than my enemies: for it is ever with me.\n99 I have understood more than all my teachers: because thy testimonies are my meditation.\n100 I have had understanding above ancients: because I have sought thy commandments.\n101 I have restrained my feet from every evil way: that I may keep thy words.\n102 I have not declined from thy judgments, because thou hast set me a law.\n103 How sweet are thy words to my palate! more than honey to my mouth.\n104 By thy commandments I have had understanding: therefore have I hated every way of iniquity.\n105 NUN. Thy word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my paths.\n106 I have sworn and am determined to keep the judgments of thy justice.\n107 I have been humbled, O Lord, exceedingly: quicken thou me according to thy word.\n108 The free offerings of my mouth make acceptable, O Lord: and teach me thy judgments.\n109 My soul is continually in my hands: and I have not forgotten thy law.\n110 Sinners have laid a snare for me: but I have not erred from thy precepts.\n111 I have purchased thy testimonies for an inheritance for ever: because they are a joy to my heart.\n112 I have inclined my heart to do thy justifications for ever, for the reward.\n113 SAMECH. I have hated the unjust: and have loved thy law.\n114 Thou art my helper and my protector: and in thy word I have greatly hoped.\n115 Depart from me, ye malignant: and I will search the commandments of my God.\n116 Uphold me according to thy word, and I shall live: and let me not be confounded in my expectation.\n117 Help me, and I shall be saved: and I will meditate always on thy justifications.\n118 Thou hast despised all them that fall off from thy judgments; for their thought is unjust.\n119 I have accounted all the sinners of the earth prevaricators: therefore have I loved thy testimonies.\n120 Pierce thou my flesh with thy fear: for I am afraid of thy judgments.\n121 AIN. I have done judgment and justice: give me not up to them that slander me.\n122 Uphold thy servant unto good: let not the proud calumniate me.\n123 My eyes have fainted after thy salvation: and for the word of thy justice.\n124 Deal with thy servant according to thy mercy: and teach me thy justifications.\n125 I am thy servant: give me understanding that I may know thy testimonies.\n126 It is time, O Lord, to do: they have dissipated thy law.\n127 Therefore have I loved thy commandments above gold and the topaz.\n128 Therefore was I directed to all thy commandments: I have hated all wicked ways.\n129 PHE. Thy testimonies are wonderful: therefore my soul hath sought them.\n130 The declaration of thy words giveth light: and giveth understanding to little ones.\n131 I opened my mouth and panted: because I longed for thy commandments.\n132 Look thou upon me, and have mercy on me, according to the judgment of them that love thy name.\n133 Direct my steps according to thy word: and let no iniquity have dominion over me.\n134 Redeem me from the calumnies of men: that I may keep thy commandments.\n135 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: and teach me thy justifications.\n136 My eyes have sent forth springs of water: because they have not kept thy law.\n137 SADE. Thou art just, O Lord: and thy judgment is right.\n138 Thou hast commanded justice thy testimonies: and thy truth exceedingly.\n139 My zeal hath made me pine away: because my enemies forgot thy words.\n140 Thy word is exceedingly refined: and thy servant hath loved it.\n141 I am very young and despised; but I forgot not thy justifications.\n142 Thy justice is justice for ever: and thy law is the truth.\n143 Trouble and anguish have found me: thy commandments are my meditation.\n144 Thy testimonies are justice for ever: give me understanding, and I shall live.\n145 COPH. I cried with my whole heart, hear me, O Lord: I will seek thy justifications.\n146 I cried unto thee, save me: that I may keep thy commandments.\n147 I prevented the dawning of the day, and cried: because in thy words I very much hoped.\n148 My eyes to thee have prevented the morning: that I might meditate on thy words.\n149 Hear thou my voice, O Lord, according to thy mercy: and quicken me according to thy mercy.\n150 They that persecute me have drawn nigh to iniquity; but they are gone far off from the law.\n151 Thou art near, O Lord: and all thy ways are truth.\n152 I have known from the beginning concerning thy testimonies: that thou hast founded them for ever.\n153 RES. See my humiliation and deliver me: for I have not forgotten the law.\n154 Judge my judgment and redeem me: quicken thou me for thy word's sake.\n155 Salvation is far from sinners; because they have not sought thy justifications.\n156 Many, O Lord, are thy mercies: quicken me according to thy judgment.\n157 Many are they that persecute me, and afflict me; but I have not declined from thy testimonies.\n158 I beheld the transgressors, and I pined away; because they kept not thy word.\n159 Behold I have loved thy commandments, O Lord; quicken me thou in thy mercy.\n160 The beginning of thy words is truth: all the judgments of thy justice are for ever.\n161 SIN.

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.\n**31 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 chapter and book contains \"For the mystery of iniquity already worketh; only that he who now holdeth, do hold, until he be taken out of the way.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in *2 Thessalonians*, chapter *2*.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\n*2 Thessalonians Chapter 2*\n1 And we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and of our gathering together unto him:\n2 That you be not easily moved from your sense, nor be terrified, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by epistle, as sent from us, as if the day of the Lord were at hand.\n3 Let no man deceive you by any means, for unless there come a revolt first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition,\n4 Who opposeth, and is lifted up above all that is called God, or that is worshipped, so that he sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself as if he were God.\n5 Remember you not, that when I was yet with you, I told you these things?\n6 And now you know what withholdeth, that he may be revealed in his time.\n**7 For the mystery of iniquity already worketh; only that he who now holdeth, do hold, until he be taken out of the way.**\n8 And then that wicked one shall be revealed whom the Lord Jesus shall kill with the spirit of his mouth; and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming, him,\n9 Whose coming is according to the working of Satan, in all power, and signs, and lying wonders,\n10 And in all seduction of iniquity to them that perish; because they receive not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

Tell me, what hast thou in thy house? And she answered: I thy handmaid have nothing in my house but a little oil, to anoint me.\n3 And he said to her: Go, borrow of all thy neighbours empty vessels not a few.\n4 And go in, and shut thy door, when thou art within, and thy sons: and pour out thereof into all those vessels: and when they are full take them away.\n5 So the woman went, and shut the door upon her, and upon her sons: they brought her the vessels, and she poured in.\n6 And when the vessels were full, she said to her son: Bring me yet a vessel. And he answered: I have no more. And the oil stood.\n7 And she came, and told the man of God. And he said: Go, sell the oil, and pay thy creditor: and thou and thy sons live of the rest.\n8 And there was a day when Eliseus passed by Sunam: now there was a great woman there, who detained him to eat bread; and as he passed often that way, he turned into her house to eat bread.\n9 And she said to her husband: I perceive that this is a holy man of God, who often passeth by us.\n10 Let us therefore make him a little chamber, and put a little bed in it for him, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick, that when he cometh to us, he may abide there.\n11 Now there was a certain day when he came and turned in to the chamber, and rested there.\n12 And he said to Giezi his servant Call this Sunamitess. And when he had called her, and she stood before him,\n13 He said to his servant: Say to her Behold thou hast diligently served us in all things, what wilt thou have me to do for thee? hast thou any business, and wilt thou that I speak to the king, or to the general of the army? And she answered: I dwell in the midst of my own people.\n14 And he said: What will she then that I do for her? And Giezi said: Do not ask, for she hath no son, and her husband is old.\n15 Then he bid him call her: And when she was called, and stood before the door.\n**16 He said to her: At this time, and this same hour, if life accompany, thou shalt have a son in thy womb. But she answered: Do not, I beseech thee, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie to thy handmaid.**\n17 And the woman conceived, and brought forth a son in the time, and at the same hour, that Eliseus had said.\n18 And the child grew. And on a certain day, when he went out to his father to the reapers,\n19 He said to his father: My head acheth, my head acheth. But he said to his servant: Take him, and carry him to his mother.\n20 And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, she set him on her knees until noon, and then he died.\n21 And she went up and laid him upon the bed of the man of God, and shut the door: and going out,\n22 She called her husband, and said: Send with me, I beseech thee, one of thy servants, and an ass that I may run to the man of God, and come again.\n23 And he said to her: Why dost thou go to him? to day is neither new moon nor sabbath. She answered: I will go.\n24 And she saddled an ass, and commanded her servant: Drive, and make haste, make no stay in going. And do that which I bid thee.\n25 So she went forward, and came to the man of God to mount Carmel: and when the man of God saw her coming towards, he said to Giezi his servant: Behold that Sunamitess.\n26 Go therefore to meet her, and say to her: Is all well with thee, and with thy husband, and with thy son? and she answered: Well.\n27 And when she came to the man of God to the mount, she caught hold on his feet: and Giezi came to remove her. And the man of God said: Let her alone for her soul is in anguish, and the Lord hath hid it from me, and hath not told me.\n28 And she said to him: Did I ask a son of my lord? did I not say to thee: Do not deceive me?\n29 Then he said to Giezi: Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thy hand, and go. If any man meet thee, salute him not: and if any man salute thee, answer him not: and lay my staff upon the face of the child.\n30 But the mother of the child said: As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. He arose, therefore, and followed her.\n31 But Giezi was gone before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the child, and there was no voice nor sense: and he returned to meet him, and told him, saying: The child is not risen.\n32 Eliseus therefore went into the house, and behold the child lay dead on his bed.\n33 And going in he shut the door upon him, and upon the child, and prayed to the Lord.\n34 And he went up, and lay upon the child: and he put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and he bowed himself upon him, and the child's flesh grew warm.\n35 Then he returned and walked in the house, once to and fro: and he went up, and lay upon him: and the child gaped seven times, and opened his eyes.\n36 And he called Giezi, and said to him: Call this Sunamitess. And she being called, went in to him: and he said: Take up thy son.\n37 She came and fell at his feet, and worshipped upon the ground: and took up her son, and went out.\n38 And Eliseus returned to Galgal, and there was a famine in the land, and the sons of the prophets dwelt before him. And he said to one of his servants: Set on the great pot, and boil pottage for the sons of the prophets.\n39 And one went out into the field to gather wild herbs: and he found something like a wild vine, and gathered of it wild gourds of the field, and filled his mantle, and coming back he shred them into the pot of pottage, for he knew not what it was.\n40 And they poured it out for their companions to eat: and when they had tasted of the pottage, they cried out, saying: Death is in the pot, O man of God. And they could not eat thereof.\n41 But he said: Bring some meal. And when they had brought it, he cast it into the pot, and said: Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was now no bitterness in the pot.\n42 And a certain man came from Baalsalisa bringing to the man of God bread of the firstfruits, twenty leaves of barley, and new corn in his scrip. And he said: Give to the people, that they may eat.\n43 And his servant answered him: How much is this, that I should set it before a hundred men?

And Jephte spoke all his words before the Lord in Maspha.\n12 And he sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, to say in his name, What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come against me, to waste my land?\n13 And he answered them: I Because Israel took away my land when he came up out of Egypt, from the confines of the Arnon unto the Jaboc and the Jordan: now therefore restore the same peaceably to me.\n14 And Jephte again sent word by them, and commanded them to say to the king of Ammon:\n15 Thus saith Jephte: Israel did not take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon:\n16 But when they came up out of Egypt, he walked through the desert to the Red Sea and came into Cades.\n17 And he sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying: Suffer me to pass through thy land. But he would not condescend to his request. He sent also to the king of Moab, who likewise refused to give him passage. He abode therefore in Cades,\n18 And went round the land of Edom at the side, and the land of Moab: and came over against the east coast of the land of Moab, and camped on the other side of the Arnon: and he would not enter the bounds of Moab.\n19 So Israel sent messengers to Sehon king of the Amorrhites, who dwelt in Hesebon, and they said to him: Suffer me to pass through thy land to the river.\n20 But he also despising the words of Israel, suffered him not to pass through his borders: but gathering an infinite multitude, went out against him to Jasa, and made strong opposition.\n21 And the Lord delivered him with all his army into the hands of Israel, and he slew him, and possessed all the land of the Amorrhite the inhabitant of that country,\n22 And all the coasts thereof from the Arnon to the Jaboc, and from the wilderness to the Jordan.\n23 So the Lord the God of Israel destroyed the Amorrhite, his people of Israel fighting against him, and wilt thou now possess this land?\n24 Are not those things which thy god Chamos possesseth, due to thee by right?

The Lord be judge and decide this day between Israel and the children of Ammon.\n28 And the king of the children of Ammon would not hearken to the words of Jephte, which he sent him by the messengers.\n29 Therefore the spirit of the Lord came upon Jephte, and going round Galaad, and Manasses, and Maspha of Galaad, and passing over from thence to the children of Ammon,\n30 He made a vow to the Lord, saying: If thou wilt deliver the children of Ammon into my hands,\n31 Whosoever shall first come forth out of the doors of my house, and shall meet me when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, the same will I offer a holocaust to the Lord.\n32 And Jephte passed over to the children of Ammon, to fight against them: and the Lord delivered them into his hands.\n33 And he smote them from Aroer till you come to Mennith, twenty cities, and as far as Abel, which is set with vineyards, with a very great slaughter: and the children of Ammon were humbled by the children of Israel.\n34 And when Jephte returned into Maspha to his house, his only daughter met him with timbrels and with dances: for he had no other children.\n35 And when he saw her, he rent his garments, and said: Alas! my daughter, thou hast deceived me, and thou thyself art deceived: for I have opened my mouth to the Lord, and I can do no other thing.\n36 And she answered him: My father, if thou hast opened thy mouth to the Lord, do unto me whatsoever thou hast promised, since the victory hath been granted to thee, and revenge of thy enemies.\n37 And she said to her father: Grant me only this which I desire: Let me go, that I may go about the mountains for two months, and may bewail my virginity with my companions.\n38 And he answered her: Go.

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.

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.\n**55 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?

And as they were lying on the ground,\n46 Moses said to Aaron: Take the censer, and putting fire in it from the altar, put incense upon it, and go quickly to the people to pray for them: for already wrath is gone out from the Lord, and the plague rageth.\n47 When Aaron had done this, and had run to the midst of the multitude which the burning fire was now destroying, he offered the incense:\n48 And standing between the dead and the living, he prayed for the people, and the plague ceased.\n49 And the number of them that were slain was fourteen thousand and seven hundred men, besides them that had perished in the sedition of Core.\n50 And Aaron returned to Moses to the door of the tabernacle of the covenant after the destruction was over.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does it say in Proverbs chapter 16 verse 29?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From the Old Testament, in Proverbs 16:29 (Douay Rheims), we read:\n\"An unjust man allureth his friend: and leadeth him into a way that is not good.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What is written in Psalm 62:12?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Psalm chapter 62, verse 12, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"But the king shall rejoice in God, all they shall be praised that swear by him: because the mouth is stopped of them that speak wicked things.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you quote Psalm 94:6 for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, Psalm chapter 94, verse 6 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"Come let us adore and fall down: and weep before the Lord that made us.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Read me Psalm 105:39", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at Psalm 105:39 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"And was defiled with their works: and they went aside after their own inventions.\"", "role": "assistant" } ]

of Antiochus, surnamed the Illustrious, came up and took Ptolemais, and they received him, and he reigned there.\n2 And king Demetrius heard of it, and gathered together an exceeding great army, and went forth against him to fight.\n3 And Demetrius sent a letter to Jonathan with peaceable words, to magnify him.\n4 For he said: Let us first make a peace with him, before he make one with Alexander against us.\n5 For he will remember all the evils that we have done against him, and against his brother, and against his nation.\n6 And he gave him authority to gather together an army, and to make arms, and that he should be his confederate: and the hostages that were in the castle, he commanded to be delivered to him.\n7 And Jonathan came to Jerusalem, and read the letters in the hearing of all the people, and of them that were in the castle.\n8 And they were struck with great fear, because they heard that the king had given him authority to gather together an army.\n9 And the hostages were delivered to Jonathan, and he restored them to their parents.\n10 And Jonathan dwelt in Jerusalem, and began to build, and to repair the city.\n11 And he ordered workmen to build the walls, and mount Sion round about with square stones for fortification: and so they did.\n12 And the strangers that were in the strong holds, which Bacchides had built, fled away.\n13 And every man left his place, and departed into his own country:\n14 Only in Bethsura there remained some of them, that had forsaken the law, and the commandments of God: for this was a place of refuge for them.\n15 And king Alexander heard of the promises that Demetrius had made Jonathan: and they told him of the battles, and the worthy acts that he, and his brethren had done, and the labours that they had endured.\n16 And he said: Shall we find such another man? now therefore we will make him our friend and our confederate.\n17 So he wrote a letter, and sent it to him according to these words, saying:\n18 King Alexander to his brother Jonathan, greeting.\n19 We have heard of thee, that thou art a man of great power, and fit to be our friend:\n20 Now therefore we make thee this day high priest of thy nation, and that thou be called the king's friend, (and he sent him a purple robe, and a crown of gold,) and that thou be of one mind with us in our affairs, and keep friendship with us.\n21 Then Jonathan put on the holy vestment in the seventh month, in the year one hundred and threescore, at the feast day of the tabernacles: and he gathered together an army, and made a great number of arms.\n22 And Demetrius heard these words, and was exceeding sorry, and said:\n23 What is this that we have done, that Alexander hath prevented us to gain the friendship of the Jews to strengthen himself?\n24 I also will write to them words of request, and offer dignities, and gifts: that they may be with me to aid me.\n25 And he wrote to them in these words: King Demetrius to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n26 Whereas you have kept covenant with us, and have continued in our friendship, and have not joined with our enemies, we have heard of it, and are glad.\n27 Wherefore now continue still to keep fidelity towards us, and we will reward you with good things, for what you have done in our behalf.\n28 And we will remit to you many charges, and will give you gifts.\n29 And now I free you, and all the Jews from tributes, and I release you from the customs of salt, and remit the crowns, and the thirds of the seed:\n30 And the half of the fruit of trees, which is my share, I leave to you from this day forward, so that it shall not be taken of the land of Juda, and of the three cities that are added thereto out of Samaria and Galilee, from this day forth and for ever:\n31 And let Jerusalem be holy and free, with the borders thereof: and let the tenths, and tributes be for itself.\n32 I yield up also the power of the castle that is in Jerusalem, and I give it to the high priest, to place therein such men as he shall choose to keep it.\n33 And every soul of the Jews that hath been carried captive from the land of Juda in all my kingdom, I set at liberty freely, that all be discharged from tributes even of their cattle.\n**34 And I will that all the feasts, and the sabbaths, and the new moons, and the days appointed, and three days before the solemn day, and three days after the solemn day, be all days of immunity and freedom, for all the Jews that are in my kingdom:**\n35 And no man shall have power to do any thing against them, or to molest any of them, in any cause.\n36 And let there be enrolled in the king's army to the number of thirty thousand of the Jews: and allowance shall be made them as is due to all the king's forces, and certain of them shall be appointed to be in the fortresses of the great king:\n37 And some of them shall be set over the affairs of the kingdom, that are of trust, and let the governors be taken from among themselves, and let them walk in their own laws, as the king hath commanded in the land of Juda.\n38 And the three cities that are added to Judea, out of the country of Samaria, let them be accounted with Judea: that they may be under one, and obey no other authority but that of the high priest:\n39 Ptolemais, and the confines thereof, I give as a free gift to the holy places, that are in Jerusalem, for the necessary charges of the holy things.\n40 And I give every year fifteen thousand sicles of silver out of the king's accounts, of what belongs to me:\n41 And all that is above, which they that were over the affairs the years before, had not paid, from this time they shall give it to the works of the house.\n42 Moreover the five thousand sicles of silver which they received from the account of the holy places, every year, shall also belong to the priests that execute the ministry.\n43 And whosoever shall flee into the temple that is in Jerusalem, and in all the borders thereof, being indebted to the king for any matter, let them be set at liberty, and all that they have in my kingdom, let them have it free.\n44 For the building also, or repairing the works of the holy places, the charges shall be given out of the king's revenues:\n45 For the building also of the walls of Jerusalem, and the fortifying thereof round about, the charges shall be given out of the king's account, as also for the building of the walls in Judea.\n46 Now when Jonathan, and the people heard these words, they gave no credit to them nor received them: because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel, for he had afflicted them exceedingly.\n47 And their inclinations were towards Alexander, because he had been the chief promoter of peace in their regard, and him they always helped.\n48 And king Alexander gathered together a great army, and moved his camp near to Demetrius.\n49 And the two kings joined battle, and the army of Demetrius fled away, and Alexander pursued after him, and pressed them close.\n50 And the battle was hard fought till the sun went down: and Demetrius was slain that day.\n51 And Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemee king of Egypt, with words to this effect, saying:\n52 Forasmuch as I am returned into my kingdom, and am set in the throne of my ancestors and have gotten the dominion, and have overthrown Demetrius, and possessed our country,\n53 And have joined battle with him, and both he and his army have been destroyed by us, and we are placed in the throne of his kingdom:\n54 Now therefore let us make friendship one with another: and give me now thy daughter to wife, and I will be thy son in law, and I will give both thee and her gifts worthy of thee.\n55 And king Ptolemee answered, saying: Happy is the day wherein thou didst return to the land of thy fathers, and sattest in the throne of their kingdom.\n56 And now I will do to thee as thou hast written: but meet me at Ptolemais, that we may see one another, and I may give her to thee as thou hast said.\n57 So Ptolemee went out of Egypt, with Cleopatra his daughter, and he came to Ptolemais in the hundred and sixty-second year.\n58 And king Alexander met him, and he gave him his daughter Cleopatra: and he celebrated her marriage at Ptolemais, with great glory, after the manner of kings.\n59 And king Alexander wrote to Jonathan, that he should come and meet him.\n60 And he went honourably to Ptolemais, and he met there the two kings, and he gave them much silver, and gold, and presents: and he found favour in their sight.\n61 And some pestilent men of Israel, men of a wicked life, assembled themselves against him to accuse him: and the king gave no heed to them.\n62 And he commanded that Jonathan's garments should be taken off, and that he should be clothed with purple: and they did so. And the king made him sit by himself.\n63 And he said to his princes: Go out with him into the midst of the city, and make proclamation, that no man complain against him of any matter, and that no man trouble him for any manner of cause.\n64 So when his accusers saw his glory proclaimed, and him clothed with purple, they all fled away.\n65 And the king magnified him, and enrolled him amongst his chief friends, and made him governor and partaker of his dominion.\n66 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with peace and joy.\n67 In the year one hundred and sixty-five Demetrius the son of Demetrius came from Crete into the land of his fathers.\n68 And king Alexander heard of it, and was much troubled, and returned to Antioch.\n69 And king Demetrius made Apollonius his general, who was governor of Celesyria: and he gathered together a great army, and came to Jamnia: and he sent to Jonathan the high priest,\n70 Saying: Thou alone standest against us, and I am laughed at, and reproached, because thou shewest thy power against us in the mountains.\n71 Now therefore if thou trustest in thy forces, come down to us into the plain, and there let us try one another: for with me is the strength of war.\n72 Ask, and learn who I am, and the rest that help me, who also say that your foot cannot stand before our face, for thy fathers have twice been put to flight in their own land:\n73 And now how wilt thou be able to abide the horsemen, and so great an army in the plain, where there is no stone, nor rock, nor place to flee to?\n74 Now when Jonathan heard the words of Apollonius, he was moved in his mind: and he chose ten thousand men, and went out of Jerusalem, and Simon his brother met him to help him.\n75 And they pitched their tents near Joppe, but they shut him out of the city: because a garrison of Apollonius was in Joppe, and he laid siege to it.\n76 And they that were in the city being affrighted, opened the gates to him: so Jonathan took Joppe.\n77 And Apollonius heard of it, and he took three thousand horsemen, and a great army.\n78 And he went to Azotus as one that was making a journey, and immediately he went forth into the plain: because he had a great number of horsemen, and he trusted in them. And Jonathan followed after him to Azotus, and they joined battle.\n79 And Apollonius left privately in the camp a thousand horsemen behind them.\n80 And Jonathan knew that there was an ambush behind him, and they surrounded his army, and cast darts at the people from morning till evening.\n81 But the people stood still, as Jonathan had commanded them: and so their horses were fatigued.\n82 Then Simon drew forth his army, and attacked the legion: for the horsemen were wearied: and they were discomfited by him, and fled.\n83 And they that were scattered about the plain, fled into Azotus, and went into Bethdagon their idol's temple, there to save themselves.\n84 But Jonathan set fire to Azotus, and the cities that were around it, and took the spoils of them, and the temple of Dagon: and all them that were fled into it, he burnt with fire.\n85 So they that were slain by the sword, with them that were burnt, were almost eight thousand men.\n86 And Jonathan removed his army from thence, and camped against Ascalon: and they went out of the city to meet him with great honour.\n87 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with his people, having many spoils.\n88 And it came to pass: When Alexander the king heard these words, that he honoured Jonathan yet more.\n89 And he sent him a buckle of gold, as the custom is, to be given to such as are of the royal blood. And he gave him Accaron and all the borders thereof in possession.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the content of 2 Maccabees 10:33?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From the Old Testament, in 2 Maccabees 10:33 (Douay Rheims), we read:\n\"Then Machabeus, and they that were with him, cheerfully laid siege to the fortress four days.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"Now an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying: Arise, go towards the south, to the way that goeth down from Jerusalem into Gaza: this is desert.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The quote \"Now an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying: Arise, go towards the south, to the way that goeth down from Jerusalem into Gaza: this is desert.\" is from Acts 8:26 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "I need the text of Ecclesiastes 11:10", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**The Old Testament**\n*Ecclesiastes 11:10 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"Remove anger from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh.

Turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways: and why will you die, O house of Israel?\n12 Thou therefore, O son of man, say to the children of thy people: The justice of the just shall not deliver him, in what day soever he shall sin: and the wickedness of the wicked shall not hurt him, in what day soever he shall turn from his wickedness: and the just shall not be able to live in his justice, in what day soever he shall sin.\n13 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.\n14 And if I shall say to the wicked: Thou shalt surely die: and he do penance for his sin, and do judgment and justice,\n15 And if that wicked man restore the pledge, and render what he had robbed, and walk in the commandments of life, and do no unjust thing: he shall surely live, and shall not die.\n16 None of his sins, which he hath committed, shall be imputed to him: he hath done judgment and justice, he shall surely live.\n17 And the children of thy people have said: The way of the Lord is not equitable: whereas their own way is unjust.\n18 For when the just shall depart from his justice, and commit iniquities, he shall die in them.\n19 And when the wicked shall depart from his wickedness, and shall do judgments, and justice: he shall live in them.\n20 And you say: The way of the Lord is not right, I will judge every one of you according to his ways, O house of Israel.\n21 And it came to pass in the twelfth year of our captivity, in the tenth month, in the fifth day of the month, that there came to me one that was fled from Jerusalem, saying: The city is laid waste.\n22 And the hand of the Lord had been upon me in the evening, before he that was fled came: and he opened my mouth till he came to me in the morning, and my mouth being opened, I was silent no more.\n23 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:\n24 Son of man, they that dwell in these ruinous places in the land of Israel, speak, saying: Abraham was one, and he inherited the land, but we are many, the land is given us in possession.\n25 Therefore say to them: Thus saith the Lord God, You that eat with the blood and lift up your eyes to your uncleannesses, and that shed blood: shall you possess the land by inheritance?\n26 You stood on your swords, you have committed abominations, and every one hath defiled his neighbour's wife; and shall you possess the land by inheritance?\n27 Say thou thus to them: Thus saith the Lord God: As I live, they that dwell in the ruinous places, shall fall by the sword: and he that is in the field, shall be given to the beasts to be devoured: and they that are in holds, and caves, shall die of the pestilence.\n**28 And I will make the land a wilderness, and a desert, and the proud strength thereof shall fail, and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, because there is none to pass by them.**\n29 And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have made their land waste and desolate, for all their abominations which they have committed.\n30 And thou son of man: the children of thy people, that talk of thee by the walls, and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another each man to his neighbour, saying: Come, and let us hear what is the word that cometh forth from the Lord.\n31 And they come to thee, as if a people were coming in, and my people sit before thee: and hear thy words, and do them not: for they turn them into a song of their mouth, and their heart goeth after their covetousness.\n32 And thou art to them as a musical song which is sung with a sweet and agreeable voice: and they hear thy words, and do them not.\n33 And when that which was foretold shall come to pass, (for behold it is coming,) then shall they know that a prophet hath been among them.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you pinpoint the book and chapter of \"And the outward wall that went about by the chambers, which were towards the outward court on the forepart of the chambers, was fifty cubits long.\" for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're asking about is in *Ezekiel*, chapter *42*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*Ezekiel Chapter 42*\n1 And he brought me forth into the outward court by the way that leadeth to the north, and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate building, and over against the house toward the north.\n2 In the face of the north door was the length of a hundred cubits, and the breadth of fifty cubits.\n3 Over against the twenty cubits of the inner court, and over against the pavement of the outward court that was paved with stone, where there was a gallery joined to a triple gallery.\n4 And before the chambers was a walk ten cubits broad, looking to the inner parts of a way of one cubit.

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.

So Thamar remained pining away in the house of Absalom her brother.\n21 And when king David heard of these things he was exceedingly grieved: and he would not afflict the spirit of his son Amnon, for he loved him, because he was his firstborn.\n22 But Absalom spoke not to Amnon neither good nor evil: for Absalom hated Amnon because he had ravished his sister Thamar.\n23 And it came to pass after two years, that the sheep of Absalom were shorn in Baalhasor, which is near Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king's sons:\n24 And he came to the king, and said to him: Behold thy servant's sheep are shorn. Let the king, I pray, with his servants come to his servant.\n25 And the king said to Absalom: Nay, my son, do not ask that we should all come, and be chargeable to thee. 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 the king said to him: It is not necessary that he should go with thee.\n27 But Absalom pressed him, so that he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him. And Absalom made a feast as it were the feast of a king.\n28 And Absalom had commanded his servants, saying: Take notice when Amnon shall be drunk with wine, and when I shall say to you: Strike him, and kill him, fear not: for it is I that command you: take courage, and be valiant men.\n29 And the servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded them.

O how have I loved thy law, O Lord! it is my meditation all the day.\n98 Through thy commandment, thou hast made me wiser than my enemies: for it is ever with me.\n99 I have understood more than all my teachers: because thy testimonies are my meditation.\n100 I have had understanding above ancients: because I have sought thy commandments.\n101 I have restrained my feet from every evil way: that I may keep thy words.\n102 I have not declined from thy judgments, because thou hast set me a law.\n103 How sweet are thy words to my palate! more than honey to my mouth.\n104 By thy commandments I have had understanding: therefore have I hated every way of iniquity.\n105 NUN. Thy word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my paths.\n106 I have sworn and am determined to keep the judgments of thy justice.\n107 I have been humbled, O Lord, exceedingly: quicken thou me according to thy word.\n108 The free offerings of my mouth make acceptable, O Lord: and teach me thy judgments.\n109 My soul is continually in my hands: and I have not forgotten thy law.\n110 Sinners have laid a snare for me: but I have not erred from thy precepts.\n111 I have purchased thy testimonies for an inheritance for ever: because they are a joy to my heart.\n112 I have inclined my heart to do thy justifications for ever, for the reward.\n113 SAMECH.

I have done judgment and justice: give me not up to them that slander me.\n122 Uphold thy servant unto good: let not the proud calumniate me.\n123 My eyes have fainted after thy salvation: and for the word of thy justice.\n124 Deal with thy servant according to thy mercy: and teach me thy justifications.\n125 I am thy servant: give me understanding that I may know thy testimonies.\n126 It is time, O Lord, to do: they have dissipated thy law.\n127 Therefore have I loved thy commandments above gold and the topaz.\n128 Therefore was I directed to all thy commandments: I have hated all wicked ways.\n129 PHE. Thy testimonies are wonderful: therefore my soul hath sought them.\n130 The declaration of thy words giveth light: and giveth understanding to little ones.\n131 I opened my mouth and panted: because I longed for thy commandments.\n132 Look thou upon me, and have mercy on me, according to the judgment of them that love thy name.\n133 Direct my steps according to thy word: and let no iniquity have dominion over me.\n134 Redeem me from the calumnies of men: that I may keep thy commandments.\n135 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: and teach me thy justifications.\n136 My eyes have sent forth springs of water: because they have not kept thy law.\n137 SADE. Thou art just, O Lord: and thy judgment is right.\n138 Thou hast commanded justice thy testimonies: and thy truth exceedingly.\n139 My zeal hath made me pine away: because my enemies forgot thy words.\n140 Thy word is exceedingly refined: and thy servant hath loved it.\n141 I am very young and despised; but I forgot not thy justifications.\n142 Thy justice is justice for ever: and thy law is the truth.\n143 Trouble and anguish have found me: thy commandments are my meditation.\n144 Thy testimonies are justice for ever: give me understanding, and I shall live.\n145 COPH. I cried with my whole heart, hear me, O Lord: I will seek thy justifications.\n146 I cried unto thee, save me: that I may keep thy commandments.\n147 I prevented the dawning of the day, and cried: because in thy words I very much hoped.\n148 My eyes to thee have prevented the morning: that I might meditate on thy words.\n149 Hear thou my voice, O Lord, according to thy mercy: and quicken me according to thy mercy.\n150 They that persecute me have drawn nigh to iniquity; but they are gone far off from the law.\n151 Thou art near, O Lord: and all thy ways are truth.\n152 I have known from the beginning concerning thy testimonies: that thou hast founded them for ever.\n153 RES. See my humiliation and deliver me: for I have not forgotten the law.\n154 Judge my judgment and redeem me: quicken thou me for thy word's sake.\n155 Salvation is far from sinners; because they have not sought thy justifications.\n156 Many, O Lord, are thy mercies: quicken me according to thy judgment.\n157 Many are they that persecute me, and afflict me; but I have not declined from thy testimonies.\n158 I beheld the transgressors, and I pined away; because they kept not thy word.\n159 Behold I have loved thy commandments, O Lord; quicken me thou in thy mercy.\n160 The beginning of thy words is truth: all the judgments of thy justice are for ever.\n161 SIN. Princes have persecuted me without cause: and my heart hath been in awe of thy words.\n162 I will rejoice at thy words, as one that hath found great spoil.\n163 I have hated and abhorred iniquity; but I have loved thy law.\n164 Seven times a day I have given praise to thee, for the judgments of thy justice.\n165 Much peace have they that love thy law, and to them there is no stumbling block.\n166 I looked to thy salvation, O Lord: and I loved thy commandments.\n167 My soul hath kept thy testimonies: and hath loved them exceedingly.\n168 I have kept thy commandments and thy testimonies: because all my ways are in thy sight.\n169 TAU. Let my supplication, O Lord, come near in thy sight: give me understanding according to thy word.\n170 Let my request come in before thee; deliver thou me according to thy word.\n171 My lips shall utter a hymn, when thou shalt teach me thy justifications.\n172 My tongue shall pronounce thy word: because all thy commandments are justice.\n173 Let thy hand be with me to save me; for I have chosen thy precepts.\n174 I have longed for thy salvation, O Lord; and thy law is my meditation.\n175 My soul shall live and shall praise thee: and thy judgments shall help me.\n176 I have gone astray like a sheep that is lost: seek thy servant, because I have not forgotten thy commandments.\n", "role": "assistant" } ]

said to him: Pass from hence, and go into Judea; that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou dost.\n4 For there is no man that doth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. 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.\n**11 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.

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? The multitude answered, and said: Thou hast a devil; who seeketh to kill thee?\n21 Jesus answered, and said to them: One work I have done; and you all wonder:\n22 Therefore, Moses gave you circumcision (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and on the sabbath day you circumcise a man.\n23 If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath day, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are you angry at me because I have healed the whole man on the sabbath day?\n24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge just judgment.\n25 Some therefore of Jerusalem said: Is not this he whom they seek to kill?\n26 And behold, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him.

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.\n**42 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": "Where exactly in the Bible is \"And his servants conspired against him, and slew him in his own house.\" written?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of 2 Chronicles, chapter 33, verse 24 of the Old Testament, you'll find \"And his servants conspired against him, and slew him in his own house.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"For our glory is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity of heart and sincerity of God, and not in carnal wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have conversed in this world: and more abundantly towards you.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from *2 Corinthians*, chapter *1*.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\n*2 Corinthians Chapter 1*\n1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother: to the church of God that is at Corinth, with all the saints that are in all Achaia:\n2 Grace unto you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.\n3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort.\n4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation; that we also may be able to comfort them who are in all distress, by the exhortation wherewith we also are exhorted by God.\n5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us: so also by Christ doth our comfort abound.\n6 Now whether we be in tribulation, it is for your exhortation and salvation: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation: or whether we be exhorted, it is for your exhortation and salvation, which worketh the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer.\n7 That our hope for you may be steadfast: knowing that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so shall you be also of the consolation.\n8 For we would not have you ignorant, brethren, of our tribulation, which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure above our strength, so that we were weary even of life.\n9 But we had in ourselves the answer of death, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raiseth the dead.\n10 Who hath delivered and doth deliver us out of so great dangers: in whom we trust that he will yet also deliver us.\n11 You helping withal in prayer for us: that for this gift obtained for us, by the means of many persons, thanks may be given by many in our behalf.\n**12 For our glory is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity of heart and sincerity of God, and not in carnal wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have conversed in this world: and more abundantly towards you.**\n13 For we write no other things to you than what you have read and known.

And I saw a woman sitting upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.\n4 And the woman was clothed round about with purple and scarlet, and gilt with gold, and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand, full of the abomination and filthiness of her fornication.\n5 And on her forehead a name was written: A mystery; Babylon the great, the mother of the fornications, and the abominations of the earth.\n6 And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.

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.\n**28 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.

If God be for us, who is against us?\n32 He that spared not even his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how hath he not also, with him, given us all things?\n33 Who shall accuse against the elect of God? God that justifieth.\n34 Who is he that shall condemn? Christ Jesus that died, yea that is risen also again; who is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.\n35 Who then shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation? or distress? or famine? or nakedness? or danger? or persecution? or the sword?\n36 (As it is written: For thy sake we are put to death all the day long. We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.)\n37 But in all these things we overcome, because of him that hath loved us.\n38 For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor might,\n39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you provide the book, chapter, and verse for \"Rehearse not again a wicked and harsh word, and thou shalt not fare the worse.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, the book of Sirach, chapter 19, verse 7 states: \"Rehearse not again a wicked and harsh word, and thou shalt not fare the worse.\".", "role": "assistant" } ]

I awoke, and then fell asleep again,\n22 And dreamed a dream: Seven ears of corn grew upon one stalk, full and very fair.\n23 Other seven also thin and blasted, sprung of the stock:\n24 And they devoured the beauty of the former: I told this dream to the conjecturers, and there is no man that can expound it.\n25 Joseph answered: The king's dream is one: God hath shewn to Pharao what he is about to do.\n26 The seven beautiful kine, and the seven full ears, are seven years of plenty: and both contain the same meaning of the dream.\n27 And the seven lean and thin kine that came up after them, and the seven thin ears that were blasted with the burning wind, are seven years of famine to come:\n28 Which shall be fulfilled in this order:\n29 Behold, there shall come seven years of great plenty in the whole land of Egypt:\n30 After which shall follow other seven years of so great scarcity, that all the abundance before shall be forgotten: for the famine shall consume all the land,\n31 And the greatness of the scarcity shall destroy the greatness of the plenty.\n32 And for that thou didst see the second time a dream pertaining to the same thing: it is a token of the certainty, and that the word of God cometh to pass, and is fulfilled speedily.\n33 Now therefore let the king provide a wise and industrious man, and make him ruler over the land of Egypt:\n34 That he may appoint overseers over all the countries: and gather into barns the fifth part of the fruits, during the seven fruitful years,\n35 That shall now presently ensue: and let all the corn be laid up under Pharao's hands and be reserved in the cities.\n36 And let it be in readiness, against the famine of seven years to come, which shall oppress Egypt, and the land shall not be consumed with scarcity.\n37 The counsel pleased Pharao and all his servants.\n38 And he said to them: Can we find such another man, that is full of the spirit of God?\n39 He said therefore to Joseph: Seeing God hath shewn thee all that thou hast said, can I find one wiser and one like unto thee?\n40 Thou shalt be over my house, and at the commandment of thy mouth all the people shall obey: only in the kingly throne will I be above thee.\n41 And again Pharao said to Joseph: Behold, I have appointed thee over the whole land of Egypt.\n42 And he took his ring from his own hand, and gave it into his hand: and he put upon him a robe of silk, and put a chain of gold about his neck.\n43 And he made him go up into his second chariot, the crier proclaiming that all should bow their knee before him, and that they should know he was made governor over the whole land of Egypt.\n44 And the king said to Joseph: I am Pharao; without thy commandment no man shall move hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.\n**45 And he turned his name, and called him in the Egyptian tongue, The saviour of the world. And he gave him to wife Aseneth the daughter of Putiphare priest of Heliopolis. Then Joseph went out to the land of Egypt:**\n46 (Now he was thirty years old when he stood before king Pharao) and he went round all the countries of Egypt.\n47 And the fruitfulness of the seven years came: and the corn being bound up into sheaves was gathered together into the barns of Egypt.\n48 And all the abundance of grain was laid up in every city.\n49 And there was so great abundance of wheat, that it was equal to the sand of the sea, and the plenty exceeded measure.\n50 And before the famine came, Joseph had two sons born: whom Aseneth the daughter of Putiphare priest of Heliopolis bore unto him.\n51 And he called the name of the firstborn Manasses, saying: God hath made me to forget all my labours, and my father's house.\n52 And he named the second Ephraim, saying: God hath made me to grow in the land of my poverty.\n53 Now when the seven years of the plenty that had been in Egypt were past:\n54 The seven years of scarcity, which Joseph had foretold, began to come: and the famine prevailed in the whole world, but there was bread in all the land of Egypt.\n55 And when there also they began to be famished, the people cried to Pharao for food. And he said to them: Go to Joseph: and do all that he shall say to you.\n56 And the famine increased daily in all the land: and Joseph opened all the barns, and sold to the Egyptians: for the famine had oppressed them also.\n57 And all provinces came into Egypt, to buy food, and to seek some relief of their want.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Tell me what Jeremiah 11:10 says", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Jeremiah 11:10 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"They are returned to the former iniquities of their fathers, who refused to hear my words: so these likewise have gone after strange gods, to serve them: the house of Israel, and the house of Juda have made void my covenant, which I made with their fathers.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which chapter and book contains \"How do you say: We are valiant, and stout men in battle?\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in *Jeremiah*, chapter *48*.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\n*Jeremiah Chapter 48*\n1 Against Moab thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Woe to Nabo, for it is laid waste, and confounded: Cariathaim is taken: the strong city is confounded and hath trembled.\n2 There is no more rejoicing in Moab over Hesebon: they have devised evil.

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.

power of thy soul to a woman, lest she enter upon thy strength, and thou be confounded.\n3 Look not upon a woman that hath a mind for many: lest thou fall into her snares.\n4 Use not much the company of her that is a dancer, and hearken not to her, lest thou perish by the force of her charms.\n5 Gaze not upon a maiden, lest her beauty be a stumblingblock to thee.\n6 Give not thy soul to harlots in any point: lest thou destroy thyself and thy inheritance.\n7 Look not round about thee in the ways of the city, nor wander up and down in the streets thereof.\n8 Turn away thy face from a woman dressed up, and gaze not about upon another's beauty.\n9 For many have perished by the beauty of a woman, and hereby lust is enkindled as a fire.\n10 Every woman that is a harlot, shall be trodden upon as dung in the way.\n11 Many by admiring the beauty of another man's wife, have become reprobate, for her conversation burneth as fire.\n12 Sit not at all with another man's wife, nor repose upon the bed with her:\n13 And strive not with her over wine, lest thy heart decline towards her, and by thy blood thou fall into destruction.\n14 Forsake not an old friend, for the new will not be like to him.\n15 A new friend is as new wine: it shall grow old, and thou shalt drink it with pleasure.\n16 Envy not the glory and riches of a sinner: for thou knowest not what his ruin shall be.\n17 Be not pleased with the wrong done by the unjust, knowing that even to hell the wicked shall not please.\n18 Keep thee far from the man that hath power to kill, so thou shalt not suspect the fear of death.\n19 And if thou come to him, commit no fault, lest he take away thy life.\n20 Know it to be a communication with death: for thou art going in the midst of snares, and walking upon the arms of them that are grieved:\n21 According to thy power beware of thy neighbour, and treat with the wise and prudent.\n22 Let just men be thy guests, and let thy glory be in the fear of God.\n**23 And let the thought of God be in thy mind, and all thy discourse on the commandments of the Highest.**\n24 Works shall be praised for the hand of the artificers, and the prince of the people for the wisdom of his speech, but the word of the ancients for the sense.\n25 A man full of tongue is terrible in his city, and he that is rash in his word shall be hateful.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "-

The word pleased the king: and he commanded it should be done as they had suggested.\n5 There was a man in the city of Susan, a Jew, named Mardochai, the son of Jair, the son of Semei, the son of Cis, of the race of Jemini,\n**6 Who had been carried away from Jerusalem at the time that Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon carried away Jechonias king of Juda,**\n7 And he had brought up his brother's daughter Edissa, who by another name was called Esther: now she had lost both her parents: and was exceeding fair and beautiful. And her father and mother being dead, Mardochai adopted her for his daughter.\n8 And when the king's ordinance was noised abroad, and according to his commandment many beautiful virgins were brought to Susan, and were delivered to Egeus the eunuch: Esther also among the rest of the maidens was delivered to him to be kept in the number of the women.\n9 And she pleased him, and found favour in his sight. And he commanded the eunuch to hasten the women's ornaments, and to deliver to her her part, and seven of the most beautiful maidens of the king's house, and to adorn and deck out both her and her waiting maids.\n10 And she would not tell him her people nor her country. For Mardochai had charged her to say nothing at all of that:\n11 And he walked every day before the court of the house, in which the chosen virgins were kept, having a care for Esther's welfare, and desiring to know what would befall her.\n12 Now when every virgin's turn came to go in to the king, after all had been done for setting them off to advantage, it was the twelfth month: so that for six months they were anointed with oil of myrrh, and for other six months they used certain perfumes and sweet spices.\n13 And when they were going in to the king, whatsoever they asked to adorn themselves they received: and being decked out, as it pleased them, they passed from the chamber of the women to the king's chamber.\n14 And she that went in at evening, came out in the morning, and from thence she was conducted to the second house, that was under the hand of Susagaz the eunuch, who had the charge over the king's concubines: neither could she return any more to the king, unless the king desired it, and had ordered her by name to come.\n15 And as the time came orderly about, the day was at hand, when Esther, the daughter of Abihail the brother of Mardochai, whom he had adopted for his daughter, was to go in to the king. But she sought not women's ornaments, but whatsoever Egeus the eunuch the keeper of the virgins had a mind, he gave her to adorn her. For she was exceeding fair, and her incredible beauty made her appear agreeable and amiable in the eyes of all.\n16 So she was brought to the chamber of king Assuerus the tenth month, which is called Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.\n17 And the king loved her more than all the women, and she had favour and kindness before him above all the women, and he set the royal crown on her head, and made her queen instead of Vasthi.\n18 And he commanded a magnificent feast to be prepared for all the princes, and for his servants, for the marriage and wedding of Esther. And he gave rest to all the provinces, and bestowed gifts according to princely magnificence.\n19 And when the virgins were sought the second time, and gathered together, Mardochai stayed at the king's gate,\n20 Neither had Esther as yet declared her country and people, according to his commandment. For whatsoever he commanded, Esther observed: and she did all things in the same manner as she was wont at that time when he brought her up a little one.\n21 At that time, therefore, when Mardochai abode at the king's gate, Bagathan and Thares, two of the king's eunuchs, who were porters, and presided in the first entry of the palace, were angry: and they designed to rise up against the king, and to kill him.\n22 And Mardochai had notice of it, and immediately he told it to queen Esther: and she to the king in Mardochai's name, who had reported the thing unto her.\n23 It was inquired into, and found out: and they were both hanged on a gibbet.

Again Andrew and Philip told Jesus.\n23 But Jesus answered them, saying: The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.\n24 Amen, amen I say to you, unless the grain of wheat falling into the ground die,\n25 Itself remaineth alone. But if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world, keepeth it unto life eternal.\n26 If any man minister to me, let him follow me; and where I am, there also shall my minister be. If any man minister to me, him will my Father honour.\n27 Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour. But for this cause I came unto this hour.\n28 Father, glorify thy name. A voice therefore came from heaven: I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.\n29 The multitude therefore that stood and heard, said that it thundered. Others said: An angel spoke to him.\n30 Jesus answered, and said: This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.\n31 Now is the judgment of the world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.\n32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all things to myself.\n33 (Now this he said, signifying what death he should die.)\n34 The multitude answered him: We have heard out of the law, that Christ abideth for ever; and how sayest thou: The Son of man must be lifted up? 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. These things Jesus spoke; and he went away, and hid himself from them.\n37 And whereas he had done so many miracles before them, they believed not in him:\n38 That the saying of Isaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he said: Lord, who hath believed our hearing? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?\n39 Therefore they could not believe, because Isaias said again:\n40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.\n41 These things said Isaias, when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.\n42 However, many of the chief men also believed in him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, that they might not be cast out of the synagogue.\n43 For they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God.\n44 But Jesus cried, and said: He that believeth in me, doth not believe in me, but in him that sent me.\n45 And he that seeth me, seeth him that sent me.\n46 I am come a light into the world; that whosoever believeth in me, may not remain in darkness.\n47 And if any man hear my words, and keep them not, I do not judge him: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.\n48 He that despiseth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him; the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.\n49 For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father who sent me, he gave me commandment what I should say, and what I should speak.\n50 And I know that his commandment is life everlasting.

let me see any more this exceeding great fire, lest I die.\n17 And the Lord said to me: They have spoken all things well.\n18 I will raise them up a prophet out of the midst of their brethren like to thee: and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I shall command him.\n19 And he that will not hear his words, which he shall speak in my name, I will be the revenger.\n20 But the prophet, who being corrupted with pride, shall speak in my name things that I did not command him to say, or in the name of strange gods, shall be slain.\n21 And if in silent thought thou answer: How shall I know the word that the Lord hath not spoken?\n22 Thou shalt have this sign: Whatsoever that same prophet foretelleth in the name of the Lord, and it cometh not to

He that doth justice is just, even as he is just.\n8 He that committeth sin is of the devil: for the devil sinneth from the beginning.

*6*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*1 Maccabees Chapter 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.\n**46 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": "What's the reference (book, chapter, verse) for \"And he said to them: Why do ye these kinds of things, which I hear, very wicked things, from all the people?\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, the book of 1 Samuel, chapter 2, verse 23 states: \"And he said to them: Why do ye these kinds of things, which I hear, very wicked things, from all the people?\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Show me 2 Corinthians 5:1", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in 2 Corinthians 5:1 of the New Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"For we know, if our earthly house of this habitation be dissolved, that we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in heaven.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the content of 2 Kings 8:13?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, 2 Kings chapter 8, verse 13 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"And Hazael said: But what am I thy servant a dog, that I should do this great thing?

book *Hebrews*, chapter *9*.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\n*Hebrews Chapter 9*\n1 The former indeed had also justifications of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary.\n2 For there was a tabernacle made the first, wherein were the candlesticks, and the table, and the setting forth of loaves, which is called the holy.\n3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle, which is called the holy of holies:\n4 Having a golden censer, and the ark of the testament covered about on every part with gold, in which was a golden pot that had manna, and the rod of Aaron, that had blossomed, and the tables of the testament.\n5 And over it were the cherubims of glory overshadowing the propitiatory: of which it is not needful to speak now particularly.\n6 Now these things being thus ordered, into the first tabernacle the priests indeed always entered, accomplishing the offices of sacrifices.\n7 But into the second, the high priest alone, once a year: not without blood, which he offereth for his own, and the people's ignorance:\n8 The Holy Ghost signifying this, that the way into the holies was not yet made manifest, whilst the former tabernacle was yet standing.\n9 Which is a parable of the time present: according to which gifts and sacrifices are offered, which can not, as to the conscience, make him perfect that serveth, only in meats and in drinks,\n10 And divers washings, and justices of the flesh laid on them until the time of correction.\n11 But Christ, being come an high priest of the good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hand, that is, not of this creation:\n12 Neither by the blood of goats, or of calves, but by his own blood, entered once into the holies, having obtained eternal redemption.\n13 For if the blood of goats and of oxen, and the ashes of an heifer being sprinkled, sanctify such as are defiled, to the cleansing of the flesh:\n14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who by the Holy Ghost offered himself unspotted unto God, cleanse our conscience from dead works, to serve the living God?\n15 And therefore he is the mediator of the new testament: that by means of his death, for the redemption of those transgressions, which were under the former testament, they that are called may receive the promise of eternal inheritance.\n16 For where there is a testament, the death of the testator must of necessity come in.\n17 For a testament is of force, after men are dead: otherwise it is as yet of no strength, whilst the testator liveth.\n18 Whereupon neither was the first indeed dedicated without blood.\n19 For when every commandment of the law had been read by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water, and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,\n20 Saying: This is the blood of the testament, which God hath enjoined unto you.\n21 The tabernacle also and all the vessels of the ministry, in like manner, he sprinkled with blood.\n22 And almost all things, according to the law, are cleansed with blood: and without shedding of blood there is no remission.\n**23 It is necessary therefore that the patterns of heavenly things should be cleansed with these: but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.**\n24 For Jesus is not entered into the holies made with hands, the patterns of the true: but into heaven itself, that he may appear now in the presence of God for us.\n25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holies, every year with the blood of others:\n26 For then he ought to have suffered often from the beginning of the world: but now once at the end of ages, he hath appeared for the destruction of sin, by the sacrifice of himself.\n27 And

the autumn, unfruitful, twice dead, plucked up by the roots,\n13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own confusion; wandering stars, to whom the storm of darkness is reserved for ever.\n14 Now of these Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying: Behold, the Lord cometh with thousands of his saints,\n15 To execute judgment upon all, and to reprove all the ungodly for all the works of their ungodliness, whereby they have done ungodly, and of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against God.\n16 These are murmurers, full of complaints, walking according to their own desires, and their mouth speaketh proud things, admiring persons for gain's sake.\n17 But you, my dearly beloved, be mindful of the words which have been spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,\n18 Who told you, that in the last time there should come mockers, walking according to their own desires in ungodlinesses.\n19 These are they, who separate themselves, sensual men, having not the Spirit.\n20 But you, my beloved, building yourselves upon your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,\n21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord

And the people were encouraged with these words of Ezechias king of Juda.\n9 After this, Sennacherib king of the Assyrians sent his servants to Jerusalem, (for he with all his army was besieging Lachis,) to Ezechias king of Juda, and to all the people that were in the city, saying:\n10 Thus saith Sennacherib king of the Assyrians: In whom do you trust, that you sit still besieged in Jerusalem?\n11 Doth not Ezechias deceive you, to give you up to die by hunger and thirst, affirming that the Lord your God shall deliver you from the hand of the king of the Assyrians?\n12 Is it not this same Ezechias, that hath destroyed his high places, and his altars, and commanded Juda and Jerusalem, saying: You shall worship before one altar, and upon it you shall burn incense?\n13 Know you not what I and my fathers have done to all the people of the lands? have the gods of any nations and lands been able to deliver their country out of my hand?\n14 Who is there among all the gods of the nations, which my fathers have destroyed, that could deliver his people out of my hand, that your God should be able to deliver you out of this hand?\n15 Therefore let not Ezechias deceive you, nor delude you with a vain persuasion, and do not believe him. For if no god of all the nations and kingdoms, could deliver his people out of my hand, and out of the hand of my fathers, consequently neither shall your God be able to deliver you out of my hand.\n16 And many other things did his servants speak against the Lord God, and against Ezechias his servant.\n17 He wrote also letters full of blasphemy against the Lord the God of Israel, and he spoke against him: As the gods of other nations could not deliver their people out of my hand, so neither can the God of Ezechias deliver his people out of this hand.\n18 Moreover he cried out with a loud voice, in the Jews' tongue, to the people that sat on the walls of Jerusalem, that he might frighten them, and take the city.\n19 And he spoke against the God of Jerusalem, as against the gods of the people of the earth, the works of the hands of men.\n20 And Ezechias the king, and Isaias the prophet the son of Amos, prayed against this blasphemy, and cried out to heaven.\n21 And the Lord sent an angel who cut off all the stout men and the warriors, and the captains of the army of the king of the Assyrians: and he returned with disgrace into his own country.

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.\n**28 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. And they themselves at last are consumed, and shall be a reproach in the country.\n72 Better therefore is the just man that hath no idols: for he shall be far from reproach.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"And Moses reared it up, and placed the boards and the sockets and the bars, and set up the pillars,\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Your verse is located in *Exodus*, chapter *40*.\n\nTake a look at the whole chapter:\n*Exodus Chapter 40*\n1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n2 The first month, the first day of the month, thou shalt set up the tabernacle of the testimony,\n3 And shalt put the ark in it, and shalt let down the veil before it:\n4 And thou shalt bring in the table, and set upon it the things that are commanded according to the rite.

And the man of God besought the face of the Lord, and the king's hand was restored to him, and it became as it was before.\n7 And the king said to the man of God: Come home with me to dine, and I will make thee presents.\n8 And the man of God answered the king: If thou wouldst give me half thy house I will not go with thee, nor eat bread, nor drink water in this place:\n9 For so it was enjoined me by the word of the Lord commanding me: Thou shalt not eat bread nor drink water, nor return by the same way that thou camest.\n10 So he departed by another way, and returned not by the way that he came into Bethel.\n11 Now a certain old prophet dwelt in Bethel, and his sons came to him and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel: and they told their father the words which he had spoken to the king.\n12 And their father said to them: What way went he? His sons shewed him the way by which the man of God went, who came out of Juda.\n13 And he said to his sons: Saddle me the ass. And when they had saddled him, he got up,\n14 And went after the man of God, and found him sitting under a turpentine tree: and he said to him: Art thou the man of God that camest from Juda? He answered: I am.\n15 And he said to him: Come home with me, to eat bread.\n16 But he said: I must not return, nor go with thee, neither will I eat bread, nor drink water in this place:\n17 Because the Lord spoke to me in the word of the Lord, saying: Thou shalt not eat bread, and thou shalt not drink water there, nor return by the way thou wentest.\n**18 He said to him: I also am a prophet like unto thee: and an angel spoke to me in the word of the Lord, saying: Bring him back with thee into thy house, that he may eat bread, and drink water. He deceived him,**\n19 And brought him back with him: so he ate bread and drank water in his house.\n20 And as they sat at table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet that brought him back:\n21 And he cried out to the man of God who came out of Juda, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast not been obedient to the Lord, and hast not kept the commandment which the Lord thy God commanded thee,\n22 And hast returned and eaten bread, and drunk water in the place wherein he commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat bread, nor drink water, thy dead body shall not be brought into the sepulchre of thy fathers.\n23 And when he had eaten and drunk, he saddled his ass for the prophet, whom he had brought back.\n24 And when he was gone, a lion found him in the way, and killed him, and his body was cast in the way: and the ass stood by him, and the lion stood by the dead body.\n25 And behold, men passing by saw the dead body cast in the way, and the lion standing by the body. And they came and told it in the city, wherein that old prophet dwelt.\n26 And when that prophet, who had brought him back out of the way, heard of it, he said: It is the man of God, that was disobedient to the mouth of the Lord, and the Lord hath delivered him to the lion, and he hath torn him, and killed him according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke to him.\n27 And he said to his sons: Saddle me an ass. And when they had saddled it,\n28 And he was gone, he found the dead body cast in the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the carcass: the lion had not eaten of the dead body, nor hurt the ass.\n29 And the prophet took up the body of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and going back brought it into the city of the old prophet, to mourn for him.\n30 And he laid his dead body in his own sepulchre: and they mourned over him, saying: Alas! alas! my brother.\n31 And when they had mourned over him, he said to his sons: When I am dead, bury me in the sepulchre wherein the man of God is buried: lay my bones beside his bones.\n32 For assuredly the word shall come to pass which he hath foretold in the word of the Lord against the altar that is in Bethel: and against all the temples of the high places, that are in the cities of Samaria.\n33 After these words Jeroboam came not back from his wicked way: but on the contrary he made of the meanest of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he filled his hand, and he was made a priest of the high places.\n34 And for this cause did the house of Jeroboam sin, and was cut off and destroyed from the face of the earth.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Scripture from 1 Maccabees 10:13?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "1 Maccabees 10:13 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"And every man left his place, and departed into his own country:\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which chapter and book contains \"Swear to me by the Lord, that thou wilt not destroy my seed after me, nor take away my name from the house of my father.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of *1 Samuel*, chapter *24*.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n*1 Samuel Chapter 24*\n1 Then David went up from thence, and dwelt in strong holds of Engaddi.\n2 And when Saul was returned from following the Philistines, they told him, saying: Behold, David is in the desert of Engaddi.\n3 Saul therefore took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went out to seek after David, and his men, even upon the most craggy rocks, which are accessible only to wild goats.\n4 And he came to the sheepcotes, which were in his way. And there was a cave, into which Saul went, to ease nature: now David and his men lay hid in the inner part of the cave.\n5 And the servants of David said to him: Behold the day, of which the Lord said to thee: I will deliver thy enemy unto thee, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good in thy eyes. Then David arose, and secretly cut off the hem of Saul's robe.\n6 After which David's heart struck him, because he had cut off the hem of Saul's robe.\n7 And he said to his men: The Lord be merciful unto me, that I may do no such thing to my master the Lord's anointed, as to lay my hand upon him, because he is the Lord's anointed.\n8 And David stopped his men with his words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rising up out of the cave, went on his way.\n9 And David also rose up after him: and going out of the cave cried after Saul, saying: My lord the king. And Saul looked behind him: and David bowing himself down to the ground, worshipped,\n10 And said to Saul: Why dost thou hear the words of men that say David seeketh thy hurt?\n11 Behold this day thy eyes have seen, that the Lord hath delivered thee into my hand, in the cave, and I had a thought to kill thee, but my eye hath spared thee. For I said: I will not put out my hand against my lord, because he is the Lord's anointed.\n12 Moreover see and know, O my father, the hem of thy robe in my hand, that when I cut, off the hem of thy robe, I would not put out my hand against thee. Reflect, and see, that there is no evil in my hand, nor iniquity, neither have I sinned against thee: but thou liest in wait for my life, to take it away.\n13 The Lord judge between me and thee, and the Lord revenge me of thee: but my hand shall not be upon thee.\n14 As also it is said in the old proverb: From the wicked shall wickedness come forth: therefore my hand shall not be upon thee. After whom dost thou come out, O king of Israel?\n15 After whom dost thou pursue? After a dead dog, after a flea.\n16 Be the Lord judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and judge my cause, and deliver me out of thy hand.\n17 And when David had made an end of speaking these words to Saul, Saul said: Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.\n18 And he said to David: Thou art more just than I: for thou hast done good to me, and I have rewarded thee with evil.\n19 And thou hast shewn this day what good things thou hast done to me: how the Lord delivered me into thy hand, and thou hast not killed me.\n20 For who when he hath found his enemy, will let him go well away? But the Lord reward thee for this good turn, for what thou hast done to me this day.\n21 And now as I know that thou shalt surely be king, and have the kingdom of Israel in thy hand:\n**22 Swear to me by the Lord, that thou wilt not destroy my seed after me, nor take away my name from the house of my father.**\n23 And David swore to Saul.

And entering into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, we abode with him.\n9 And he had four daughters, virgins, who did prophesy.\n10 And as we tarried there for some days, there came from Judea a certain prophet, named Agabus.\n11 Who, when he was come to us, took Paul's girdle: and binding his own feet and hands, he said: Thus saith the Holy Ghost: The man whose girdle this is, the Jews shall bind in this manner in Jerusalem, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.\n12 Which when we had heard, both we and they that were of that place, desired him that he would not go up to Jerusalem.\n**13 Then Paul answered, and said: What do you mean weeping and afflicting my heart?

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 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.\n**22 But Judas ordered men to be ready in convenient places, lest some mischief might be suddenly practiced by the enemies: so they made an agreeable conference.**\n23 And Nicanor abode in Jerusalem, and did no wrong, but sent away the flocks of the multitudes that had been gathered together.\n24 And Judas was always dear to him from the heart, and he was well affected to the man.\n25 And he desired him to marry a wife, and to have children. So he married: he lived quietly, and they lived in common.\n26 But Alcimus seeing the love they had one to another, and the covenants, came to Demetrius, and told him that Nicanor assented to the foreign interest, for that he meant to make Judas, who was a traitor to the kingdom, his successor.\n27 Then the king being in a rage and provoked with this man's wicked accusations, wrote to Nicanor, signifying, that he was greatly displeased with the covenant of friendship: and that he commanded him nevertheless to send Machabeus prisoner in all haste to Antioch.\n28 When this was known, Nicanor was in a consternation, and took it grievously that he should make void the articles that were agreed upon, having received no injury from the man.\n29 But because he could not oppose the king, he watched an opportunity to comply with the orders.\n30 But when Machabeus perceived that Nicanor was more stern to him, and that when they met together as usual he behaved himself in a rough manner: and was sensible that this rough behaviour came not of good, he gathered together a few of his men, and hid himself from Nicanor.\n31 But he finding himself notably prevented by the man, came to the great and holy temple: and commanded the priests that were offering the accustomed sacrifices, to deliver him the man.\n32 And when they swore unto him, that they knew not where the man was whom he sought, he stretched out his hand to the temple,\n33 And swore, saying: Unless you deliver Judas prisoner to me, I will lay this temple of God even with the ground, and will beat down the altar, and I will dedicate this temple to Bacchus.\n34 And when he had spoken thus he departed. But the priests stretching forth their hands to heaven, called upon him that was ever the defender of their nation, saying in this manner:\n35 Thou, O Lord of all things, who wantest nothing, wast pleased that the temple of thy habitation should be amongst us.\n36 Therefore now, O Lord the holy of all holies, keep this house for ever undefiled which was lately cleansed.\n37 Now Razias, one of the ancients of Jerusalem, was accused to Nicanor, a man that was a lover of the city, and of good report, who for his affection was called the father of the Jews.\n38 This man, for a long time, had held fast his purpose of keeping himself pure in the Jews' religion, and was ready to expose his body and life, that he might persevere therein.\n39 So Nicanor being willing to declare the hatred that he bore the Jews, sent five hundred soldiers to take him.\n40 For he thought by insnaring him to hurt the Jews very much.\n41 Now as the multitude sought to rush into his house, and to break open the door, and to set fire to it, when he was ready to be taken, he struck himself with his sword:\n42 Choosing to die nobly rather than to fall into the hands of the wicked, and to suffer abuses unbecoming his noble birth.\n43 But whereas through haste he missed of giving himself a sure wound, and the crowd was breaking into the doors, he ran boldly to the wall, and manfully threw himself down to the crowd:\n44 But they quickly making room for his fall, he came upon the midst of the neck.\n45 And as he had yet breath in him, being inflamed in mind he arose: and while his blood ran down with a great stream, and he was grievously wounded, he ran through the crowd:\n46 And standing upon a steep rock, when he was now almost without blood, grasping his bowels with both hands, he cast them upon the throng, calling upon the Lord of life and spirit, to restore these to him again: and so he departed this life.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Tell me what 2 Maccabees 14:33 says", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from 2 Maccabees 14:33, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"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.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"But he that did the injury to his neighbour thrust him away, saying: Who hath appointed thee prince and judge over us?\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from *Acts*, chapter *7*.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\n*Acts Chapter 7*\n1 Then the high priest said: Are these things so?\n2 Who said: Ye men, brethren, and fathers, hear.

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.

For they all knew that his father was a Gentile.\n4 And as they passed through the cities, they delivered unto them the decrees for to keep, that were decreed by the apostles and ancients who were at Jerusalem.\n5 And the churches were confirmed in faith, and increased in number daily.\n6 And when they had passed through Phrygia, and the country of Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia.\n7 And when they were come into Mysia, they attempted to go into Bythynia, and the Spirit of Jesus suffered them not.\n8 And when they had passed through Mysia, they went down to Troas.\n9 And a vision was shewed to Paul in the night, which was a man of Macedonia standing and beseeching him, and saying: Pass over into Macedonia, and help us.\n10 And as soon as he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go into Macedonia, being assured that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.\n11 And sailing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the day following to Neapolis;\n12 And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city of part of Macedonia, a colony. And we were in this city some days conferring together.\n13 And upon the sabbath day, we went forth without the gate by a river side, where it seemed that there was prayer; and sitting down, we spoke to the women that were assembled.\n14 And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one that worshipped God, did hear: whose heart the Lord opened to attend to those things which were said by Paul.\n15 And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us, saying: If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide there. And she constrained us.\n16 And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain girl, having a pythonical spirit, met us, who brought to her masters much gain by divining.\n17 This same following Paul and us, cried out, saying: These men are the servants of the most high God, who preach unto you the way of salvation.\n18 And this she did many days. But Paul being grieved, turned, and said to the spirit: I command thee, in the name of Jesus Christ, to go out from her. And he went out the same hour.\n19 But her masters, seeing that the hope of their gain was gone, apprehending Paul and Silas, brought them into the marketplace to the rulers.\n20 And presenting them to the magistrates, they said: These men disturb our city, being Jews;\n21 And preach a fashion which it is not lawful for us to receive nor observe, being Romans.\n22 And the people ran together against them; and the magistrates rending off their clothes, commanded them to be beaten with rods.\n**23 And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the gaoler to keep them diligently.**\n24 Who having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.\n25 And at midnight, Paul and Silas praying, praised God. And they that were in prison, heard them.\n26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken. And immediately all the doors were opened, and the bands of all were loosed.\n27 And the keeper of the prison, awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the doors of the prison open, drawing his sword, would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.\n28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying: Do thyself no harm, for we all are here.\n29 Then calling for a light, he went in, and trembling, fell down at the feet of Paul and Silas.\n30 And bringing them out, he said: Masters, what must I do, that I may be saved?\n31 But they said: Believe in the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.\n32 And they preached the word of the Lord to him and to all that were in his house.\n33 And he, taking them the same hour of the night, washed their stripes, and himself was baptized, and all his house immediately.\n34 And when he had brought them into his own house, he laid the table for them, and rejoiced with all his house, believing God.\n35 And when the day was come, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let those men go.\n36 And the keeper of the prison told these words to Paul: The magistrates have sent to let you go; now therefore depart, and go in peace.\n37 But Paul said to them: They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men that are Romans, and have cast us into prison: and now do they thrust us out privately? Not so; but let them come,\n38 And let us out themselves. And the serjeants told these words to the magistrates. And they were afraid, hearing that they were Romans.\n39 And coming, they besought them; and bringing them out, they desired them to depart out of the city.\n40 And they went out of the prison, and entered into the house of Lydia; and having seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where does it say \"Now he was of the number of the captives, whom Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had carried away from Jerusalem with Jechonias king of Juda:\", in the bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"Now he was of the number of the captives, whom Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had carried away from Jerusalem with Jechonias king of Juda:\" is written in Esther 11:4, within the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Read me Exodus 9:1", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From the Old Testament, in Exodus 9:1 (Douay Rheims), we read:\n\"And the Lord said to Moses: Go in to Pharao, and speak to him: Thus saith the Lord God of the Hebrews: Let my people go to sacrifice to me.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"And they judged the people at all times: and whatsoever was of greater difficulty they referred to him, and they judged the easier cases only.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from *Exodus*, chapter *18*.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\n*Exodus Chapter 18*\n1 And when Jethro the priest of Madian, the kinsman of Moses, had heard all the things that God had done to Moses, and to Israel his people, and that the Lord had brought forth Israel out of Egypt,\n2 He took Sephora the wife of Moses whom he had sent back:\n3 And her two sons, of whom one was called Gersam, his father saying: I have been a stranger in a foreign country.\n4 And the other Eliezer: For the God of my father, said he, is my helper, and hath delivered me from the sword of Pharao.\n5 And Jethro the kinsman of Moses came with his sons and his wife, to Moses into the desert, where he was camped by the mountain of God.\n6 And he sent word to Moses, saying: I Jethro thy kinsman come to thee, and thy wife, and thy two sons with her.\n7 And he went out to meet his kinsman, and worshipped and kissed him: and they saluted one another with words of peace.

thy heart, saith the Lord God: seeing thou dost all these the works of a shameless prostitute?\n31 Because thou hast built thy brothel house at the head of every way, and thou hast made thy high place in every street: and wast not as a harlot that by disdain enhanceth her price,\n32 But as an adulteress, that bringeth in strangers over her husband.\n33 Gifts are given to all harlots: but thou hast given hire to all thy lovers, and thou hast given them gifts to come to thee from every side, to commit fornication with thee.\n34 And it hath happened in thee contrary to the custom of women in thy fornications, and after thee there shall be no such fornication: for in that thou gavest rewards, and didst not take rewards, the contrary hath been done in thee.\n35 Therefore, O harlot, hear the word of the Lord.\n36 Thus saith the Lord God: Because thy money hath been poured out, and thy shame discovered through thy fornications with thy lovers, and with the idols of thy abominations, by the blood of thy children whom thou gavest them:\n37 Behold, I will gather together all thy lovers with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all whom thou hast loved, with all whom thou hast hated: and I will gather them together against thee on every side, and will discover thy shame in their sight, and they shall see all thy nakedness.\n38 And I will judge thee as adulteresses, and they that shed blood are judged: and I will give thee blood in fury and jealousy.\n39 And I will deliver thee into their hands, and they shall destroy thy brothel house, and throw down thy stews: and they shall strip thee of thy garments, and shall take away the vessels of thy beauty: and leave thee naked, and full of disgrace.\n40 And they shall bring upon thee a multitude, and they shall stone thee with stones, and shall slay thee with their swords.\n41 And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and shall execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and thou shalt cease from fornication, and shalt give no hire any more.\n42 And my indignation shall rest in thee: and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will cease and be angry no more.\n43 Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast provoked me in all these things: wherefore I also have turned thy ways upon thy head, saith the Lord God, and I have not done according to thy wicked deeds in all thy abominations.\n44 Behold every one that useth a common proverb, shall use this against thee, saying: As the mother was, so also is her daughter.\n45 Thou art thy mother's daughter, that cast off her husband, and her children: and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who cast off their husbands, and their children: your mother was a Cethite, and your father an Amorrhite.\n46 And thy elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister that dwelleth at thy right hand is Sodom, and her daughters.\n47 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.\n48 As I live, saith the Lord God, thy sister Sodom herself, and her daughters, have not done as thou hast done, and thy daughters.\n49 Behold this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance, and the idleness of her, and of her daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.\n50 And they were lifted up, and committed abominations before me: and I took them away as thou hast seen.\n51 And Samaria committed not half thy sins: but thou hast surpassed them with thy crimes, and hast justified thy sisters by all thy abominations which thou hast done.\n52 Therefore do thou also bear thy confusion, thou that hast surpassed thy sisters with thy sins, doing more wickedly than they: for they are justified above thee, therefore be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, thou that hast justified thy sisters.\n53 And I will bring back and restore them by bringing back Sodom, with her daughters, and by bringing back Samaria, and her daughters: and I will bring those that return of thee in the midst of them.\n54 That thou mayest bear thy shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, comforting them.\n55 And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and thou and thy daughters shall return to your ancient state.\n56 And Sodom thy sister was not heard of in thy mouth, in the day of thy pride,\n57 Before thy malice was laid open: as it is at this time, making thee a reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all the daughters of Palestine round about thee, that encompass thee on all sides.\n58 Thou hast borne thy wickedness, and thy disgrace, saith the Lord God.\n59 For thus saith the Lord God: I will deal with thee, as thou hast despised the oath, in breaking the covenant:\n**60 And I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth: and I will establish with thee an everlasting covenant.**\n61 And thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed: when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thy elder and thy younger: and I will give them to thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.\n62 And I will establish my covenant with thee: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord,\n63 That thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and mayest no more open thy mouth because of thy confusion, when I shall be pacified toward thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord God.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you provide the book, chapter, and verse for \"And Oolla committed fornication against me, and doted on her lovers, on the

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?\n**34 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.

And he saith to them: Behold the Man.\n6 When the chief priests, therefore, and the servants, had seen him, they cried out, saying: Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith to them: Take him you, and crucify him: for I find no cause in him.\n7 The Jews answered him: We have a law; and according to the law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.\n8 When Pilate therefore had heard this saying, he feared the more.\n9 And he entered into the hall again, and he said to Jesus: Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.\n10 Pilate therefore saith to him: Speakest thou not to me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and I have power to release thee?\n11 Jesus answered: Thou shouldst not have any power against me, unless it were given thee from above. Therefore, he that hath delivered me to thee, hath the greater sin.\n12 And from henceforth Pilate sought to release him. But the Jews cried out, saying: If thou release this man, thou art not Caesar's friend. For whosoever maketh himself a king, speaketh against Caesar.\n13 Now when Pilate had heard these words, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat, in the place that is called Lithostrotos, and in Hebrew Gabbatha.\n14 And it was the parasceve of the pasch, about the sixth hour, and he saith to the Jews: Behold your king.\n15 But they cried out: Away with him; away with him; crucify him. Pilate saith to them: Shall I crucify your king? The chief priests answered: We have no king but Caesar.\n16 Then therefore he delivered him to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him forth.\n17 And bearing his own cross, he went forth to that place which is called Calvary, but in Hebrew Golgotha.\n18 Where they crucified him, and with him two others, one on each side, and Jesus in the midst.\n19 And Pilate wrote a title also, and he put it upon the cross. And the writing was: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.\n20 This title therefore many of the Jews did read: because the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, in Greek, and in Latin.\n21 Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate: Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am the King of the Jews.\n22 Pilate answered: What I have written, I have written.\n23 The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified him, took his garments, (and they made four parts, to every soldier a part,) and also his coat. Now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.\n24 They said then one to another: Let us not cut it, but let us cast lots for it, whose it shall be; that the scripture might be fulfilled, saying: They have parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture they have cast lots. And the soldiers indeed did these things.\n25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalen.\n26 When Jesus therefore had seen his mother and the disciple standing whom he loved, he saith to his mother: Woman, behold thy son.\n27 After that, he saith to the disciple: Behold thy mother. And from that hour, the disciple took her to his own.\n28 Afterwards, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, said: I thirst.\n29 Now there was a vessel set there full of vinegar. And they, putting a sponge full of vinegar and hyssop, put it to his mouth.\n30 Jesus therefore, when he had taken the vinegar, said: It is consummated. And bowing his head, he gave up the ghost.\n31 Then the Jews, (because it was the parasceve,) that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath day, (for that was a great sabbath day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.\n32 The soldiers therefore came; and they broke the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him.\n33 But after they were come to Jesus, when they saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.\n34 But one of the soldiers with a spear opened his side, and immediately there came out blood and water.\n35 And he that saw it, hath given testimony, and his testimony is true.

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.\n**9 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": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"Wherefore at the return of the year, Benadad mustered the Syrians, ancient up to Aphec, to fight against Israel.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're asking about is in *1 Kings*, chapter *20*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*1 Kings Chapter 20*\n1 And Benadad, king of Syria, gathered together all his host, and there were two and thirty kings with him, and horses, and chariots: and going up, he fought against Samaria, and besieged it.\n2 And, sending messengers to Achab king of Israel into the city,\n3 He said: Thus saith Benadad: Thy silver, and thy gold is mine: and thy wives, and thy goodliest children are mine.\n4 And the king of Israel answered: According to thy word, my lord O king, I am thine, and all that I have.\n5 And the messengers came again, and said: Thus saith Benadad, who sent us unto thee: Thy silver, and thy gold, and thy wives, and thy children thou shalt deliver up to me.\n6 To morrow therefore at this same hour I will send my servants to thee, and they shall search thy house, and the houses of thy servants: and all that pleaseth them, they shall put in their hands, and take away.\n7 And the king of Israel called all the ancients of the land, and said: Mark, and see that he layeth snares for us. 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.\n**26 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 he said to them: Go, and bring him to me. Then Benadad came out to him, and he lifted him up into his chariot.\n34 And he said to him: The cities which my father took from thy father, I will restore: and do thou make thee streets in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria, and having made a league I will depart from thee. So he made a league with him, and let him go.\n35 Then a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his companion in the word of the Lord: Strike me.

And he went to speak to David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel, and to all Benjamin.\n20 And he came to David in Hebron with twenty men: and David made a feast for Abner, and his men that came with him.\n21 And Abner said to David: I will rise, that I may gather all Israel unto thee my lord the king, and may enter into a league with thee, and that thou mayst reign over all as thy soul desireth.

Behold Abner came to thee: Why didst thou send him away, and he is gone and departed?\n25 Knowest thou not Abner the son of Ner, that to this end he came to thee, that he might deceive thee, and to know thy going out, and thy coming in, and to know all thou dost?\n26 Then Joab going out from David, sent messengers after Abner, and brought him back from the cistern of Sira, David knowing nothing of it.\n27 And when Abner was returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside to the middle of the gate, to speak to him treacherously: and he stabbed him there in the groin, and he died, in revenge of the blood of Asael his brother.\n28 And when David heard of it, after the thing was now done, he said: I, and my kingdom are innocent before the Lord for ever of the blood of Abner the son of Ner:\n29 And may it come upon the head of Joab, and upon all his father's house: and let there not fail from the house of Joab one that hath an issue of seed, or that is a leper, or that holdeth the distaff, or that falleth by the sword, or that wanteth bread.\n30 So Joab and Abisai his brother slew Abner, because he had killed their brother Asael at Gabaon in the battle.\n31 And David said to Joab, and to all the people that were with him: Rend your garments, and gird yourselves with sackcloths, and mourn before the funeral of Abner.

And they said: These are thy gods, O Israel, that have brought thee out of the land of Egypt.\n5 And when Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it, and made proclamation by a crier's voice, saying: To morrow is the solemnity of the Lord.\n6 And rising in the morning, they offered holocausts, and peace victims, and the people sat down to eat, and drink, and they rose up to play.\n7 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: Go, get thee down: thy people, which thou hast brought out of the land of Egypt, hath sinned.\n8 They have quickly strayed from the way which thou didst shew them: and they have made to themselves a molten calf, and have adored it, and sacrificing victims to it, have said: These are thy gods, O Israel, that have brought thee out of the land of Egypt.\n9 And again the Lord said to Moses: See that this people is stiffnecked:\n10 Let me alone, that my wrath may be kindled against them, and that I may destroy them, and I will make of thee a great nation.\n11 But Moses besought the Lord his God, saying: Why, O Lord, is thy indignation kindled against thy people, whom thou hast brought out of the land of Egypt, with great power, and with a mighty hand?\n12 Let not the Egyptians say, I beseech thee: He craftily brought them out, that he might kill them in the mountains, and destroy them from the earth: let thy anger cease, and be appeased upon the wickedness of thy people.\n13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou sworest by thy own self, saying: I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven: and this whole land that I have spoken of, I will give to you seed, and you shall possess it for ever.\n14 And the Lord was appeased from doing the evil which he had spoken against his people.\n**15 And Moses returned from the mount, carrying the two tables of the testimony in his hand, written on both sides,**\n16 And made by the work of God: the writing also of God was graven in the tables.\n17 And Josue hearing the noise of the people shouting, said to Moses: The noise of battle is heard in the camp.\n18 But he answered: It is not the cry of men encouraging to fight, nor the shout of men compelling to flee: but I hear the voice of singers.\n19 And when he came nigh to the camp, he saw the calf, and the dances: and being very angry, he threw the tables out of his hand, and broke them at the foot of the mount:\n20 And laying hold of the calf which they had made, he burnt it, and beat it to powder, which he strowed into water, and gave thereof to the children of Israel to drink.\n21 And he said to Aaron: What has this people done to thee, that thou shouldst bring upon them a most heinous sin?\n22 And he answered him: Let not my lord be offended: for thou knowest this people, that they are prone to evil.\n23 They said to me: Make us gods, that may go before us: for as to this Moses, who brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is befallen him.\n24 And I said to them: Which of you hath any gold? and they took and brought it to me: and I cast it into the fire, and this calf came out.\n25 And when Moses saw that the people were naked, (for Aaron had stripped them by occasion of the shame of the filth, and had set them naked among their enemies,)\n26 Then standing in the gate of the camp, he said: If any man be on the Lord's side let him join with me.

And they were scandalized in regard of him.\n4 And Jesus said to them: A prophet is not without honor, but in his own country, and in his own house, and among his own kindred.\n5 And he could not do any miracles there, only that he cured a few that were sick, laying his hands upon them.\n6 And he wondered because of their unbelief, and he went through the villages round about teaching.\n7 And he called the twelve; and began to send them two and two, and gave them power over unclean spirits.\n8 And he commanded them that they should take nothing for the way, but a staff only: no scrip, no bread, nor money in their purse,\n9 But to be shod with sandals, and that they should not put on two coats.\n10 And he said to them: Wheresoever you shall enter into an house, there abide till you depart from that place.\n11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you; going forth from thence, shake off the dust from your feet for a testimony to them.\n12 And going forth they preached that men should do penance:\n13 And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed them.\n14 And king Herod heard, (for his name was made manifest,) and he said: John the Baptist is risen again from the dead, and therefore mighty works shew forth themselves in him.\n15 And others said: It is Elias.

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.\n**53 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?

As I live, I will not answer you, saith the Lord God.\n4 If thou judgest them, if thou judgest, son of man, declare to them the abominations of their fathers.\n5 And say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up my hand for the race of the house of Jacob: and appeared to them in the land of Egypt, and lifted up my hand for them, saying: I am the Lord your God:\n6 In that day I lifted up my hand for them, to bring them out of the land of Egypt, into a land which I had provided for them, flowing with milk and honey, which excelleth amongst all lands.\n7 And I said to them: Let every man cast away the scandals of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.\n8 But they provoked me, and would not hearken to me: they did not every man cast away the abominations of his eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt: and I said I would pour out my indignation upon them, and accomplish my wrath against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.\n9 But I did otherwise for my name's sake, that it might not be violated before the nations, in the midst of whom they were, and among whom I made myself known to them, to bring them out of the land of Egypt.\n10 Therefore I brought them out from the land of Egypt, and brought them into the desert.\n11 And I gave them my statutes, and I shewed them my judgments, which if a man do, he shall live in them.\n12 Moreover I gave them also my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them: and that they might know that I am the Lord that sanctify them.\n**13 But the house of Israel provoked me in the desert: they walked not in my statutes, and they cast away my judgments, which if a man do he shall live in them: and they grievously violated my sabbaths.

who is not of thy people Israel, come from a far country, for the sake of thy great name, and thy strong hand, and thy stretched out arm, and adore in this place:\n33 Hear thou from heaven thy firm dwelling place, and do all that which that stranger shall call upon thee for: that all the people of the earth may know thy name, and may fear thee, as thy people Israel, and may know, that thy name

hast chosen, and the house which I have built to thy name:\n35 Then hear thou from heaven their prayers, and their supplications, and revenge them.\n36 And if they sin against thee (for there is no man that sinneth not) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them up to their enemies, and they lead them away captive to a land either afar off, or near at hand,\n37 And if they be converted in their heart in the land to which they were led captive, and do penance, and pray to thee in the land of their captivity, saying: We have sinned, we have done wickedly, we have dealt unjustly:\n38 And return to thee with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their captivity, to which they were led away, and adore thee towards the way of their own land which thou gavest their fathers, and of the city, which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built to thy name:\n39 Then hear thou from heaven, that is, from thy firm dwelling place, their prayers, and do judgment, and forgive thy people, although they have sinned:\n40 For thou art my God: let thy eyes, I beseech thee, be open, and let thy ears be attentive to the prayer, that is made in this place.\n41 Now therefore arise, O Lord God, into thy resting place, thou and the ark of thy strength: let thy priests, O Lord God, put on salvation, and thy saints rejoice in good things.\n42 O Lord God, turn not

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. For him hath God, the Father, sealed.\n28 They said therefore unto him: What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?\n29 Jesus answered, and said to them: This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he hath sent.\n30 They said therefore to him: What sign therefore dost thou shew, that we may see, and may believe thee? What dost thou work?\n31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert, as it is written: He gave them bread from heaven to eat.\n32 Then Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say to you; Moses gave you not bread from heaven, but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.\n33 For the bread of God is that which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life to the world.\n34 They said therefore unto him: Lord, give us always this bread.\n35 And Jesus said to them: I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall not hunger: and he that believeth in me shall never thirst.\n36 But I said unto you, that you also have seen me, and you believe not.\n37 All that the Father giveth to me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me, I will not cast out.\n38 Because I came down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me.\n39 Now this is the will of the Father who sent me: that of all that he hath given me, I should lose nothing; but should raise it up again in the last day.\n40 And this is the will of my Father that sent me: that every one who seeth the Son, and believeth in him, may have life everlasting, and I will raise him up in the last day.\n41 The Jews therefore murmured at him, because he had said: I am the living bread which came down from heaven.\n42 And they said: Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? 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. Every one that hath heard of the Father, and hath learned, cometh to me.\n46 Not that any man hath seen the Father; but he who is of God, he hath seen the Father.\n47 Amen, amen I say unto you: He that believeth in me, hath everlasting life.\n48 I am the bread of life.\n49 Your fathers did eat manna in the desert, and are dead.\n50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven; that if any man eat of it, he may not die.\n51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven.\n52 If any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever; and the bread that I will give, is my flesh, for the life of the world.\n53 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying: How can this man give us his flesh to eat?\n54 Then Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say unto you: Except you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you shall not have life in you.\n55 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath everlasting life: and I will raise him up in the last day.\n56 For my flesh is meat indeed: and my blood is drink indeed.\n57 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, abideth in me, and I in him.\n58 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father; so he that eateth me, the same also shall live by me.\n59 This is the bread that came down from heaven. Not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead. He that eateth this bread, shall live for ever.\n60 These things he said, teaching in the synagogue, in Capharnaum.\n61 Many therefore of his disciples, hearing it, said: This saying is hard, and who can hear it?\n62 But Jesus, knowing in himself, that his disciples murmured at this, said to them: Doth this scandalize you?\n63 If then you shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?\n64 It is the spirit that quickeneth: the flesh profiteth nothing. The words that I have spoken to you, are spirit and life.\n65 But there are some of you that believe not.

And I swore to thee, and I entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God: and thou becamest mine.\n9 And I washed thee with water, and cleansed away thy blood from thee: and I anointed thee with oil.\n10 And I clothed thee with embroidery, and shod thee with violet coloured shoes: and I girded thee about with fine linen, and clothed thee with fine garments.\n11 I decked thee also with ornaments, and put bracelets on thy hands, and a chain about thy neck.\n12 And I put a jewel upon thy forehead and earrings in thy ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.\n13 And thou wast adorned with gold, and silver, and wast clothed with fine linen, and embroidered work, and many colours: thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil, and wast made exceeding beautiful: and wast advanced to be a queen.\n14 And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty: for thou wast perfect through my beauty, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God.\n15 But trusting in thy beauty, thou playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and thou hast prostituted thyself to every passenger, to be his.\n16 And taking of thy garments thou hast made thee high places sewed together on each side: and hast played the harlot upon them, as hath not been done before, nor shall be hereafter.\n17 And thou tookest thy beautiful vessels, of my gold, and my silver, which I gave thee, and thou madest thee images of men, and hast committed fornication with them.\n18 And thou tookest thy garments of divers colours, and coveredst them: and settest my oil and my sweet incense before them.\n19 And my bread which I gave thee, the fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou hast set before them for a sweet odour; and it was done, saith the Lord God.\n20 And thou hast taken thy sons, and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne to me: and hast sacrificed the same to them to be devoured. Is thy fornication small?\n21 Thou hast sacrificed and given my children to them, consecrating them by fire.\n22 And after all thy abominations, and fornications, thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked, and full of confusion, trodden under foot in thy own blood.\n23 And it came to pass after all thy wickedness (woe, woe to thee, saith the Lord God)\n24 That thou didst also build thee a common stew, and madest thee a brothel house in every street.\n25 At every head of the way thou hast set up a sign of thy prostitution: and hast made thy beauty to be abominable: and hast prostituted thyself to every one that passed by, and hast multiplied thy fornications.\n26 And thou hast committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, men of large bodies, and hast multiplied thy fornications to provoke me.\n27 Behold, I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and will take away thy justification: and I will deliver thee up to the will of the daughters of the Philistines that hate thee, that are ashamed of thy wicked way.\n28 Thou hast also committed fornication with the Assyrians, because thou wast not yet satisfied: and after thou hadst played the harlot with them, even so thou wast not contented.\n29 Thou hast also multiplied thy fornications in the land of Chanaan with the Chaldeans: and neither so wast thou satisfied.\n30 Wherein shall I cleanse thy heart, saith the Lord God: seeing thou dost all these the works of a shameless prostitute?\n31 Because thou hast built thy brothel house at the head of every way, and thou hast made thy high place in every street: and wast not as a harlot that by disdain enhanceth her price,\n32 But as an adulteress, that bringeth in strangers over her husband.\n33 Gifts are given to all harlots: but thou hast given hire to all thy lovers, and thou hast given them gifts to come to thee from every side, to commit fornication with thee.\n34 And it hath happened in thee contrary to the custom of women in thy

strip thee of thy garments, and shall take away the vessels of thy beauty: and leave thee naked, and full of disgrace.\n40 And they shall bring upon thee a multitude, and they shall stone thee with stones, and shall slay thee with their swords.\n41 And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and shall execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and thou shalt cease from fornication, and shalt give no hire any more.\n42 And my indignation shall rest in thee: and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will cease and be angry no more.\n43 Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast provoked me in all these things: wherefore I also have turned thy ways upon thy head, saith the Lord God, and I have not done according to thy wicked deeds in all thy abominations.\n**44 Behold every one that useth a common proverb, shall use this against thee, saying: As the mother was, so also is her daughter.**\n45 Thou art thy mother's daughter, that cast off her husband, and her children: and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who cast off their husbands, and their children: your mother was a Cethite, and your father an Amorrhite.\n46 And thy elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister that dwelleth at thy right hand is Sodom, and her daughters.\n47 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.\n48 As I live, saith the Lord God, thy sister Sodom herself, and her daughters, have not done as thou hast done, and thy daughters.\n49 Behold this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance, and the idleness of her, and of her daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.\n50 And they were lifted up, and committed abominations before me: and I took them away as thou hast seen.\n51 And Samaria committed not half thy sins: but thou hast surpassed them with thy crimes, and hast justified thy sisters by all thy abominations which thou hast done.\n52 Therefore do thou also bear thy confusion, thou that hast surpassed thy sisters with thy sins, doing more wickedly than they: for they are justified above thee, therefore be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, thou that hast justified thy sisters.\n53 And I will bring back and restore them by bringing back Sodom, with her daughters, and by bringing back Samaria, and her daughters: and I will bring those that return of thee in the midst of them.\n54 That thou mayest bear thy shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, comforting them.\n55 And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and thou and thy daughters shall return to your ancient state.\n56 And Sodom thy sister was not heard of in thy mouth, in the day of thy pride,\n57 Before thy malice was laid open: as it is at this time, making thee a reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all the daughters of Palestine round about thee, that encompass thee on all sides.\n58 Thou hast borne thy wickedness, and thy disgrace, saith the Lord God.\n59 For thus saith the Lord God: I will deal with thee, as thou hast despised the oath, in breaking the covenant:\n60 And I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth: and I will establish with thee an everlasting covenant.\n61 And thou shalt remember thy ways,

21*\n1 Manasses was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned five and fifty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Haphsiba.\n2 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, according to the idols of the nations, which the Lord destroyed from before the face of the children of Israel.\n3 And he turned, and built up the high places which Ezechias his father had destroyed: and he set up altars to Baal, and made groves, as Achab the king of Israel had done: and he adored all the host of heaven, and served them.\n4 And he built altars in the house of the Lord, of which the Lord said: In Jerusalem I will put my name.\n5 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the temple of the Lord.\n6 And he made his son pass through fire: and he used divination, and observed omens, and appointed pythons, and multiplied soothsayers to do evil before the Lord, and to provoke him.\n7 He set also an idol of the grove, which he had made, in the temple of the Lord: concerning which the Lord said to David, and to Solomon his son: In this temple, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my 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.\n**10 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

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

And when Gedeon his son was threshing and cleansing wheat by the winepress, to flee from Madian,\n12 The angel of the Lord appeared to him, and said: The Lord is with thee, O most valiant of men.\n13 And Gedeon said to him: I beseech thee, my lord, if the Lord be with us, why have these evils fallen upon us? 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?

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 he sent: and all the ancients of Juda and Jerusalem were assembled to him.\n2 And the king went up to the temple of the Lord, and all the men of Juda, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, the priests and the prophets, and all the people both little and great: and in the hearing of them all he read all the words of the book of the covenant, which was found in the house of the Lord.\n3 And the king stood upon the step: and made a covenant with the Lord, to walk after the Lord, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies and his ceremonies, with all their heart, and with all their soul, and to perform the words of this covenant, which were written in that book: and the people agreed to the covenant.\n4 And the king commanded Helcias the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the doorkeepers, to cast out of the temple of the Lord all the vessels that had been made for Baal, and for the grove, and for all the host of heaven: and he burnt them without Jerusalem in the valley of Cedron, and he carried the ashes of them to Bethel.\n5 And he destroyed the soothsayers, whom the kings of Juda had appointed to sacrifice in the high places in the cities of Juda, and round about Jerusalem: them also that burnt incense to Baal, and to the sun, and to the moon, and to the twelve signs, and to all the host of heaven.\n6 And he caused the grove to be carried out from the house of the Lord without Jerusalem to the valley of Cedron, and he burnt it there, and reduced it to dust, and cast the dust upon the graves of the common people.\n7 He destroyed also the pavilions of the effeminate, which were in the house of the Lord, for which the women wove as it were little dwellings for the grove.\n8 And he gathered together all the priests out of the cities of Juda: and he defiled the high places, where the priests offered sacrifice, from Gabaa to Bersabee: and he broke down the altars of the gates that were in the entering in of the gate of Josue governor of tile city, which was on the left hand of the gate of the city.\n**9 However the priests of the high places came not up to the altar of the Lord in Jerusalem: but only ate of the unleavened bread among their brethren.**\n10 And he defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the son of Ennom: that no man should consecrate there his son or his daughter through fire to Moloch.\n11 And he took away the horses which the kings of Juda had given to the sun, at the entering in of the temple of the Lord, near the chamber of Nathanmelech the eunuch, who was in Pharurim: and he burnt the chariots of the sun with fire.\n12 And the altars that were upon the top of the upper chamber of Achaz, which the kings of Juda had made, and the altars which Manasses had made in the two courts of the temple of the Lord, the king broke down: and he ran from thence, and cast the ashes of them into the torrent Cedron.\n13 The high places also that were at Jerusalem on the right side of the Mount of Offence, O which Solomon king of Israel had built to Astaroth the idol of the Sidonians, and to Chamos the scandal of Moab, and to Melchom the abomination of the children of Ammon, the king defiled.\n14 And he broke in pieces the statues, and cut down the groves: and he filled their places with the bones of dead men.\n15 Moreover the altar also that was at Bethel, and the high place, which Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin, had made: both the altar, and the high place he broke down and burnt, and reduced to powder, and burnt the grove.\n16 And as Josias turned himself, he saw there the sepulchres that were in the mount: and he sent and took the bones out of the sepulchres, and burnt them upon the altar, and defiled it according to the word of the Lord, which the man of God spoke, who had foretold these things.\n17 And he said: What is that monument which I see? And the men of that city answered: It is the sepulchre of the man of God, who came from Juda, and foretold these things which thou hast done upon the altar of Bethel.\n18 And he said: Let him alone, let no man move his bones. So his bones were left untouched with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria.\n19 Moreover all the temples of the high places, which were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke the Lord, Josias took away: and he did to them according to all the acts that he had done in Bethel.\n20 And he slew all the priests of the high places, that were there, upon the altars: and he burnt men's bones upon them: and returned to Jerusalem.\n21 And he commanded all the people, saying: Keep the phase to the Lord your God, according as it is written in the book of this covenant.\n22 Now there was no such a phase kept from the days of the judges, who judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, and of the kings of Juda,\n23 As was this phase that was kept to the Lord in Jerusalem, in the eighteenth year of king Josias.\n24 Moreover the diviners by spirits, and soothsayers, and the figures of idols, and the uncleannesses, and the abominations, that had been in the land of Juda, and Jerusalem, Josias took away: that he might perform the words of the law, that were written in the book which Helcias the priest had found in the temple of the Lord.\n25 There was no king before him like unto him, that returned to the Lord with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with ail his strength, according to all the law of Moses: neither after him did there arise any like him.\n26 But yet the Lord turned not away from the wrath of his great indignation, wherewith his anger was kindled against Juda: because of the provocations, wherewith Manasses had provoked him.\n27 And the Lord said: I will remove Juda also from before my face, as I have removed Israel: and I will cast off this city Jerusalem, which I chose, and the house, of which I said: My name shall be there.\n28 Now the rest of the acts of Josias, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?\n29 In his days Pharao Nechao king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates: and king Josias went to meet him: and was slain at Mageddo, when he had seen him.\n30 And his servants carried him dead from Mageddo: and they brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in Iris own sepulchre. And the people of the land took Joachaz the son of Josias: and they anointed him, and made him king in his father's stead.\n31 Joachaz was three and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Amital, the daughter of Jeremias of Lobna.\n32 And he did evil before the Lord, according to all that his fathers had done.\n33 And Pharao Nechao bound him at Rebla, which is in the land of Emath, that he should not reign in Jerusalem: and he set a fine upon the land, of a hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.\n34 And Pharao Nechao made Eliacim the son of Josias king in the room of Josias his father: and turned his name to Joakim. And he took Joachaz away and carried him into Egypt, and he died there.\n35 And Joakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharao, after he had taxed the land for every man, to contribute according to the commandment of Pharao: and he exacted both the silver and the gold of the people of the land, of every man according to his ability: to give to Pharao Nechao.\n36 Joakim was five and twenty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Zebida the daughter of Phadaia of Ruma.\n37 And he did evil before the Lord according to all that his fathers had done.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Acts 2:8 please", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**The New Testament**\n*Acts 2:8 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"And how have we heard, every man our own tongue wherein we were born?\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"The Lord shall send upon thee famine and hunger, and a rebuke upon all the works which thou shalt do: until he consume and destroy thee quickly, for thy most wicked inventions, by which thou hast forsaken me.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in *Deuteronomy*, chapter *28*.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\n*Deuteronomy Chapter 28*\n1 Now if thou wilt hear the voice of the Lord thy God, to do and keep all his commandments, which I command thee this day, the Lord thy God will make thee higher than all the nations that are on the earth.\n2 And all these blessings shall come upon thee and overtake thee: yet so if thou hear his precepts,\n3 Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed in the field.\n4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the droves of thy herds, and the folds of thy sheep.\n5 Blessed shall be thy barns and blessed thy stores.\n6 Blessed shalt thou be coming in and going out.\n7 The Lord shall cause thy enemies, that rise up against thee, to fall down before thy face: one way shall they come out against thee, and seven ways shall they flee before thee.\n8 The Lord will send forth a blessing upon thy storehouses, and upon all the works of thy hands: and will bless thee in the land that thou shalt receive.\n9 The Lord will raise thee up to be a holy people to himself, as he swore to thee: if thou keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways.\n10 And all the people of the earth shall see that the name of the Lord is invocated upon thee, and they shall fear thee.\n11 The Lord will make thee abound with all goods, with the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy cattle, with the fruit of thy land, which the Lord swore to thy fathers that he would give thee.\n12 The Lord will open his excellent treasure, the heaven, that it may give rain in due season: and he will bless all the works of thy hands.

of the Jebusite towards the south, the same is Jerusalem: and thence ascending to the top of the mountain, which is over against Geennom to the west in the end of the valley of Raphaim, northward.\n9 And it passeth on from the top of the mountain to the fountain of the water of Nephtoa: and reacheth to the towns of mount Ephron: and it bendeth towards Baala, which is Cariathiarim, that is to say,

Thamna.\n11 And it reacheth northward to a part of Accaron at the side: and bendeth to Sechrona, and passeth mount Baala: and cometh into Jebneel, and is bounded westward with the great sea.\n12 These are the borders round about of the children of Juda in their kindreds.\n13 But to Caleb the son of Jephone he gave a portion in the midst of the children of Juda, as the Lord had commanded him: Cariath-Arbe the father of Enac. which is Hebron.\n14 And Caleb destroyed out of it the three sons of Ehac, Sesai and Ahiman. and Tholmai of the race of Enac.\n**15 And going up from thence he came to the inhabitants of Dabir, which before was called Cariath-Sepher, that is to say, the city of letters.**\n16 And Caleb said: He that shall smite Cariath-Sepher, and take it, I will give him Axa my daughter to wife.\n17 And Othoniel the son of Cenez, the younger brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Axa his daughter to wife.\n18 And as they were going together, she was moved by her husband to ask a field of her father, and she sighed as she sat on her ass. And Caleb said to her: What aileth thee?\n19 But she answered: Give me a blessing: thou hast given me a southern and dry land, give me also a land that is watered. And Caleb gave her the upper and the nether watery ground.\n20 This is the possession of the tribe of the children of Juda by their kindreds.\n21 And the cities from the uttermost parts of the children of Juda by the borders of Edom to the south, were Cabseel and Eder and Jagur,\n22 And Cina and Dimona and Adada,\n23 And Cades and Asor and Jethnam,\n24 Ziph and Telem and Baloth,\n25 New Asor and Carioth, Hesron, which is Asor.\n26 Amam, Sama and Molada,\n27 And Asergadda and Hassemon and Bethphelet,\n28 And Hasersual and Bersabee and Baziothia,\n29 And Baala and Jim and Esem,\n30 And Eltholad and Cesil and Harma,\n31 And Siceleg and Medemena and Sensenna,\n32 Lebaoth and Selim and Aen and Remmon: all the cities twenty-nine, and their villages.\n33 But in the plains: Estaol and Sarea and Asena,\n34 And Zanoe and Engannim and Taphua and Enaim,\n35 And Jerimoth and Adullam, Socho and Azeca,\n36 And Saraim and Adithaim and Gedera and Gederothaim: fourteen cities, and their villages.\n37 Sanan and Hadassa and Magdalgad,\n38 Delean and Masepha and Jecthel,\n39 Lachis and Bascath and Eglon,\n40 Chebbon and Leheman and Cethlis,\n41 And Gideroth and Bethdagon and Naama and Maceda: sixteen cities, and their villages.\n42 Labana and Ether and Asan,\n43 Jephtha and Esna and Nesib,\n44 And Ceila and Achzib and Maresa: nine cities, and their villages.\n45 Accaron with the towns and villages thereof.\n46 From Accaron even to the sea: all places that lie towards Azotus and the villages thereof.\n47 Azotus with its towns and villages.

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 after these words thou shalt add: Thus saith the Lord: In this place, wherein the dogs have licked the blood of Naboth, they shall lick thy blood also.\n20 And Achab said to Elias: Hast thou found me thy enemy?

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.

Could you not watch one hour with me?\n41 Watch ye, and pray that ye enter not into temptation.

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.

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?

And in like manner said all the disciples.\n36 Then Jesus came with them into a country place which is called Gethsemani; and he said to his disciples: Sit you here, till I go yonder and pray.\n37 And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to grow sorrowful and to be sad.\n38 Then he saith to them: My soul is sorrowful even unto death: stay you here, and watch with me.\n39 And going a little further, he fell upon his face, praying, and saying: My Father, if it be possible, let this chalice pass from me. Nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.\n40 And he cometh to his disciples, and findeth them asleep, and he saith to Peter: What? Could you not watch one hour with me?\n41 Watch ye, and pray that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh weak.\n42 Again the second time, he went and prayed, saying: My Father, if this chalice may not pass away, but I must drink it, thy will be done.\n**43 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. And immediately the cock crew.\n75 And Peter remembered the word of Jesus which he had said: Before the cock crow, thou wilt deny me thrice.

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.\n**8 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.

He is in health, say they: and behold Rachel his daughter cometh with his flock.\n7 And Jacob said: There is yet much day remaining, neither is it time to bring the flocks into the folds again: first give the sheep drink, and so lead them back to feed.\n8 They answered: We cannot, till all the cattle be gathered together, and we remove the stone from the well's mouth, that we may water the flocks.\n9 They were yet speaking, and behold Rachel came with her father's sheep: for she fed the flock.\n10 And when Jacob saw her, and knew her to be his cousin-german, and that they were the sheep of Laban, his uncle: he removed the stone wherewith the well was closed.\n11 And having watered the flock, he kissed her: and lifting up his voice, wept.\n12 And he told her that he was her father's brother, and the son of Rebecca: but she went in haste and told her father.\n13 Who, when he heard that Jacob his sister's son was come, ran forth to meet him; and embracing him, and heartily kissing him, brought him into his house.

He hath given his sons to flight, and his daughters into captivity to Sehon the king of the Amorrhites.\n30 Their yoke is perished from Hesebon unto Dibon, they came weary to Nophe, and unto Medaba.\n31 So Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorrhite.\n32 And Moses sent some to take a view of Jazer: and they took the villages of it, and conquered the inhabitants.\n33 And they turned themselves, and went up by the way of Basan, and Og the king of Basan came against them with all his people, to fight in Edrai.\n34 And the Lord said to Moses: Fear him not, for I have delivered him and all his people, and his country into thy hand: and thou shalt do to him as thou didst to Sehon the king of the Amorrhites, the inhabitant of Hesebon.\n35 So they slew him also with his sons, and all his people, not letting any one escape, and they possessed his land.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the content of Numbers 34:26?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Numbers 34:26, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"Of the tribe of Issachar, Phaltiel the prince, the son of Ozan.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Find and read Revelation chapter 3, verse 1", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Revelation 3:1 of the New Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"And to the angel of the church of Sardis, write: These things saith he, that hath the seven spirits of God, and the seven stars: I know thy works, that thou hast the name of being alive: and thou art dead.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"And he will sharpen his severe wrath for a spear, and the whole world shall fight with him against the unwise.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Bible, the verse \"And he will sharpen his severe wrath for a spear, and the whole world shall fight with him against the unwise.\" can be found in the book of Wisdom, chapter 5, verse 21 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the blasphemies of the children of Ammon, with which they reproached my people, and have magnified themselves upon their borders.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, the book of Zephaniah, chapter 2, verse 8 states: \"I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the blasphemies of the children of Ammon, with which they reproached my people, and have magnified themselves upon their borders.\".", "role": "assistant" } ]

Jerusalem: that they might carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, that is, out of Sion.\n2 And all Israel assembled themselves to king Solomon on the festival day in the month of Ethanim, the same is the seventh month.\n3 And all the ancients of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark,\n4 And carried the ark of the Lord, and the tabernacle of the covenant, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, that were in the tabernacle: and the priests and the Levites carried them.\n5 And king Solomon, and all the multitude of Israel, that were assembled unto him went with him before the ark, and they sacrificed sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered.\n6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, into the oracle of the temple, into the holy of holies under the wings of the cherubims.\n7 For the cherubims spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and covered the art, and the staves thereof above.\n8 And whereas the staves stood out, the ends of them were seen without in the sanctuary before the oracle, but were not seen farther out, and there they have been unto this day.\n9 Now in the ark there was nothing else but the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the sanctuary, that a cloud filled the house of the Lord,\n11 And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of the Lord.\n12 Then Solomon said: The Lord said that he would dwell in a cloud.\n13 Building I have built a house for thy dwelling, to be thy most firm throne for ever.\n14 And the king turned his face, and blessed all the assembly of Israel: for all the assembly of Israel stood.\n15 And Solomon said: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father, and with his own hands hath accomplished it, saying:\n16 Since the day that I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel, for a house to be built, that my name might be there: but I chose David to be over my people Israel.\n17 And David my father would have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel:\n18 And the Lord said to David my father: Whereas thou hast thought in thy heart to build a house to my name, thou hast done well in having this same thing in thy mind.\n19 Nevertheless thou shalt not build me a house, but thy son, that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build a house to my name.\n20 The Lord hath performed his word which he spoke: and I stand in the room of David my father, and sit upon the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised: and have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel.\n21 And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with our fathers, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n22 And Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in the sight of the assembly of Israel, and spread forth his hands towards heaven;\n23 And said: Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heaven above, or on earth beneath: who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that have walked before thee with all their heart.\n24 Who hast kept with thy servant David my father what thou hast promised him: with thy mouth thou didst speak, and with thy hands thou hast performed, as this day proveth.\n25 Now therefore, O Lord God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father what thou hast spoken to him, saying: There shall not be taken away of thee a man in my sight, to sit on the throne of Israel: yet so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked in my sight.\n26 And now, Lord God of Israel, let thy words be established, which thou hast spoken to thy servant David my father.\n27 Is it then to be thought that God should indeed dwell upon earth? for if heaven, and the heavens of heavens cannot contain thee, how much less this house which I have built?\n28 But have regard to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, O Lord my God: hear the hymn and the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee this day:\n29 That thy eyes may be open upon this house night and day: upon the house of which thou hast said: My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth in this place to thee.\n30 That thou mayest hearken to the supplication of thy servant and of thy people Israel, whatsoever they shall pray for in this place, and hear them in the place of thy dwelling in heaven; and when thou hearest, shew them mercy.\n**31 If any man trespass against his neighbour, and have an oath upon him, wherewith he is bound: and come because of the oath before thy altar to thy house,**\n32 Then hear thou in heaven: and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, and bringing his way upon his own head, and justifying the just, and rewarding him according to his justice.\n33 If thy people Israel shall fly before their enemies, (because they will sin against thee,) and doing penance, and confessing to thy name, shall come, and pray, and make supplications to thee in this house:\n34 Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them back to the land which thou gavest to their fathers.\n35 If heaven shall be shut up, and there shall be no rain, because of their sins, and they praying in this place, shall do penance to thy name, and shall be converted from their sins, by occasion of their afflictions:\n36 Then hear thou them in heaven, and forgive the sins of thy servants, and of thy people Israel: and shew them the good way wherein they should walk, and give rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people in possession.\n37 If a famine arise in the land, or a pestilence, or corrupt air, or blasting, or locust, or mildew, if their enemy afflict them besieging the gates, whatsoever plague, whatsoever infirmity,\n38 Whatsoever curse or imprecation shall happen to any man of thy people Israel: when a man shall know the wound of his own heart, and shall spread forth his hands in this house,\n39 Then hear thou in heaven, in the place of thy dwelling, and forgive, and do so as to give to every one according to his ways, as thou shalt see his heart (for thou only knowest the heart of all the children of men)\n40 That they may fear thee all the days that they live upon the face of the land, which thou hast given to our fathers.\n41 Moreover also the stranger, who is not of thy people Israel, when he shall come out of a far country for thy name's sake, (for they shall hear everywhere of thy great name and thy mighty hand,\n42 And thy stretched out arm,) so when he shall come, and shall pray in this place,\n43 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy dwelling place, and do all those things, for which that stranger shall call upon thee: that all the people of the earth may learn to fear thy name, as do thy people Israel, and may prove that thy name is called upon on this house, which I have built.\n44 If thy people go out to war against their enemies, by what way soever thou shalt send them, they shall pray to thee towards the way of the city, which thou hast chosen, and towards the house, which I have built to thy name:\n45 And then hear thou in heaven their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them.\n46 But if they sin against thee (for there is no man who sinneth not) and thou being angry deliver them up to their enemies, so that they be led away captives into the land of their enemies far or near;\n47 Then if they do penance in their heart in the place of captivity, and being converted make supplication to thee in their captivity, saying: We have sinned, we have done unjustly, we have committed wickedness:\n48 And return to thee with all their heart, and all their soul, in the land of their enemies, to which they had been led captives: and pray to thee towards the way of their land, which thou gavest to their fathers, and of the city which thou hast chosen, and of the temple which I have built to thy name:\n49 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy throne, their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them:\n50 And forgive thy people, that have sinned against thee, and all their iniquities, by which they have transgressed against thee: and give them mercy before them that have made them captives, that they may have compassion on them.\n51 For they are thy people, and thy inheritance, whom thou hast brought out of the land of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron.\n52 That thy eyes may be open to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, to hear them in all things for which they shall call upon thee.\n53 For thou hast separated them to thyself for an inheritance from among all the people of the earth, as thou hast spoken by Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord God.\n54 And it came to pass, when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication to the Lord, that he rose from before the altar of the Lord: for he had fixed both knees on the ground, and had spread his hands towards heaven.\n55 And he stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a, loud voice, saying:\n56 Blessed be the Lord, who hath given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed so much as one word of all the good things that he promised by his servant Moses.\n57 The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our fathers, and not leave us, nor cast us off:\n58 But may he incline our hearts to himself, that we may walk in all his ways, and keep his commandments, and his ceremonies, and all his judgments which he commanded our fathers.\n59 And let these my words, wherewith I have prayed before the Lord, he nigh unto the Lord our God day and night, that he may do judgment for his servant, and for his people Israel day by day:\n60 That all the people of the earth may know, that the Lord he is God, and there is no other besides him.\n61 Let our hearts also be perfect with the Lord our God, that we may walk in his statutes, and keep his commandments, as at this day.\n62 And the king, and all Israel him, offered victims before the Lord.\n63 And Solomon slew victims of peace offerings, which he sacrificed to the Lord, two and twenty thousand oxen, and hundred and twenty thousand sheep: so the king, and the children of Israel dedicated the temple of the Lord.\n64 In that day the king sanctified the middle of the court that was before the house of the Lord: for there he offered the holocaust, and sacrifice, and fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar that was before the Lord, was too little to receive the holocaust, and sacrifice, and fat of the peace offerings.\n65 And Solomon made at the same time a solemn feast, and all Israel with him, a great multitude from the entrance of Emath to the river of Egypt, before the Lord our God, seven days and seven days, that is, fourteen days.\n66 And on the eighth day he sent away the people: and they blessed the king, and went to their dwellings rejoicing, and glad in heart for all the good things that the Lord had done for David his servant, and for Israel his people.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the

father was an Amorrhite, and thy mother a Cethite.\n4 And when thou wast born, in the day of thy nativity thy navel was not cut, neither wast thou washed with water for thy health, nor salted with salt, nor swaddled with clouts.\n5 No eye had pity on thee to do any of these things for thee, out of compassion to thee: but thou wast cast out upon the face of the earth in the abjection of thy soul, in the day that thou wast born.\n6 And passing by thee, I saw that thou wast trodden under foot in thy own blood. and I said to thee when thou wast in thy blood: Live: I have said to thee: Live in thy blood.\n7 I caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field: and thou didst increase and grow great, and advancedst, and camest to woman's ornament: thy breasts were fashioned, and thy hair grew: and thou wast naked, and full of confusion.\n8 And I passed by thee, and saw thee: and behold thy time was the time of lovers: and I spread my garment over thee, and covered thy ignominy. And I swore to thee, and I entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God: and thou becamest mine.\n9 And I washed thee with water, and cleansed away thy blood from thee: and I anointed thee with oil.\n10 And I clothed thee with embroidery, and shod thee with violet coloured shoes: and I girded thee about with fine linen, and clothed thee with fine garments.\n11 I decked thee also with ornaments, and put bracelets on thy hands, and a chain about thy neck.\n12 And I put a jewel upon thy forehead and earrings in thy ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.\n13 And thou wast adorned with gold, and silver, and wast clothed with fine linen, and embroidered work, and many colours: thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil, and wast made exceeding beautiful: and wast advanced to be a queen.\n14 And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty: for thou wast perfect through my beauty, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God.\n15 But trusting in thy beauty, thou playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and thou hast prostituted thyself to every passenger, to be his.\n16 And taking of thy garments thou hast made thee high places sewed together on each side: and hast played the harlot upon them, as hath not been done before, nor shall be hereafter.\n17 And thou tookest thy beautiful vessels, of my gold, and my silver, which I gave thee, and thou madest thee images of men, and hast committed fornication with them.\n18 And thou tookest thy garments of divers colours, and coveredst them: and settest my oil and my sweet incense before them.\n19 And my bread which I gave thee, the fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou hast set before them for a sweet odour; and it was done, saith the Lord God.\n20 And thou hast taken thy sons, and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne to me: and hast sacrificed the same to them to be devoured. Is thy fornication small?\n21 Thou hast sacrificed and given my children to them, consecrating them by fire.\n22 And after all thy abominations, and fornications, thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked, and full of confusion, trodden under foot in thy own blood.\n23 And it came to pass after all thy wickedness (woe, woe to thee, saith the Lord God)\n24 That thou didst also build thee a common stew, and madest thee a brothel house in every street.\n25 At every head of the way thou hast set up a sign of thy prostitution: and hast made thy beauty to be abominable: and hast prostituted thyself to every one that passed by, and hast multiplied thy fornications.\n26 And thou hast committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, men of large bodies, and hast multiplied thy fornications to provoke me.\n27 Behold, I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and will take away thy justification: and I will deliver thee up to the will of the daughters of the Philistines that hate thee, that are ashamed of thy wicked way.\n28 Thou hast also committed fornication with the Assyrians, because thou wast not yet satisfied: and after thou hadst played the harlot with them, even so thou wast not contented.\n29 Thou hast also multiplied thy fornications in the land of Chanaan with the Chaldeans: and neither so wast thou satisfied.\n30 Wherein shall I cleanse thy heart, saith the Lord God: seeing thou dost all these the works of a shameless prostitute?\n31 Because thou hast built thy brothel house at the head of every way, and thou hast made thy high place in every street: and wast not as a harlot that by disdain enhanceth her price,\n32 But as an adulteress, that bringeth in strangers over her husband.\n33 Gifts are given to all harlots: but thou hast given hire to all thy lovers, and thou hast given them gifts to come to thee from every side, to commit fornication with thee.\n34 And it hath happened in thee contrary to the custom of women in thy fornications, and after thee there shall be no such fornication: for in that thou gavest rewards, and didst not take rewards, the contrary hath been done in thee.\n35 Therefore, O harlot, hear the word of the Lord.\n36 Thus saith the Lord God: Because thy money hath been poured out, and thy shame discovered through thy fornications with thy lovers, and with the idols of thy abominations, by the blood of thy children whom thou gavest them:\n37 Behold, I will gather together all thy lovers with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all whom thou hast loved, with all whom thou hast hated: and I will gather them together against thee on every side, and will discover thy shame in their sight, and they shall see all thy nakedness.\n38 And I will judge thee as adulteresses, and they that shed blood are judged: and I will give thee blood in fury and jealousy.\n39 And I will deliver thee into their hands, and they shall destroy thy brothel house, and throw down thy stews: and they shall strip thee of thy garments, and shall take away the vessels of thy beauty: and leave thee naked, and full of disgrace.\n40 And they shall bring upon thee a multitude, and they shall stone thee with stones, and shall slay thee with their swords.\n41 And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and shall execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and thou shalt cease from fornication, and shalt give no hire any more.\n42 And my indignation shall rest in thee: and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will cease and be angry no more.\n43 Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast provoked me in all these things: wherefore I also have turned thy ways upon thy head, saith the Lord God, and I have not done according to thy wicked deeds in all thy abominations.\n44 Behold every one that useth a common proverb, shall use this against thee, saying: As the mother was, so also is her daughter.\n45 Thou art thy mother's daughter, that cast off her husband, and her children: and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who cast off their husbands, and their children: your mother was a Cethite, and your father an Amorrhite.\n46 And thy elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister that dwelleth at thy right hand is Sodom, and her daughters.\n47 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.\n48 As I live, saith the Lord God, thy sister Sodom herself, and her daughters, have not done as thou hast done, and thy daughters.\n49 Behold this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance, and the idleness of her, and of her daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.\n50 And they were lifted up, and committed abominations before me: and I took them away as thou hast seen.\n51 And Samaria committed not half thy sins: but thou hast surpassed them with thy crimes, and hast justified thy sisters by all thy abominations which thou hast done.\n52 Therefore do thou also bear thy confusion, thou that hast surpassed thy sisters with thy sins, doing more wickedly than they: for they are justified above thee, therefore be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, thou that hast justified thy sisters.\n53 And I will bring back and restore them by bringing back Sodom, with her daughters, and by bringing back Samaria, and her daughters: and I will bring those that return of thee in the midst of them.\n54 That thou mayest bear thy shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, comforting them.\n55 And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and thou and thy daughters shall return to your ancient state.\n56 And Sodom thy sister was not heard of in thy mouth, in the day of thy pride,\n57 Before thy malice was laid open: as it is at this time, making thee a reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all the daughters of Palestine round about thee, that encompass thee on all sides.\n58 Thou hast borne thy wickedness, and thy disgrace, saith the Lord God.\n59 For thus saith the Lord God: I will deal with thee, as thou hast despised the oath, in breaking the covenant:\n60 And I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth: and I will establish with thee an everlasting covenant.\n61 And thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed: when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thy elder and thy younger: and I will give them to thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.\n62 And I will establish my covenant with thee: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord,\n63 That thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and mayest no more open thy mouth because of thy confusion, when I shall be pacified toward thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord God.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "In what book, at what chapter and verse, does \"All the inhabitants of the islands are astonished at thee: and all their kings being

In what measure you shall mete, it shall be measured to you again, and more shall be given to you.\n25 For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, that also which he hath shall be taken away from him.\n26 And he said: So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the earth,\n27 And should sleep, and rise, night and day, and the seed should spring, and grow up whilst he knoweth not.\n28 For the earth of itself bringeth forth fruit, first the blade, then the ear, afterwards the full corn in the ear.\n29 And when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.\n30 And he said: To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? or to what parable shall we compare it?\n31 It is as a grain of mustard seed: which when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that are in the earth:\n32 And when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches, so that the birds of the air may dwell under the shadow thereof.\n33 And with many such parables, he spoke to them the word, according as they were able to hear.\n**34 And without parable he did not speak unto them; but apart, he explained all things to his disciples.**\n35 And he saith to them that day, when evening was come: Let us pass over to the other side.\n36 And sending away the multitude, they take him even as he was in the ship: and there were other ships with him.\n37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that the ship was filled.\n38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, sleeping upon a pillow; and they awake him, and say to him: Master, doth it not concern thee that we perish?\n39 And rising up, he rebuked the wind, and said to the sea: Peace, be still.

But thou art a wise man, and knowest what to do with him, and thou shalt bring down his grey hairs with blood to hell.\n10 So David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.\n11 And the days that David reigned in Israel, were forty years: in Hebron he reigned seven years, in Jerusalem thirty-three.\n12 And Solomon sat upon the throne of his father David, and his kingdom was strengthened exceedingly.\n13 And Adonias the son of Haggith came to Bethsabee the mother of Solomon. And she said to him: Is thy coming peaceable? he answered: Peaceable.\n14 And he added: I have a word to speak with thee. She said to him: Speak. And he said:\n15 Thou knowest that the kingdom was nine, and all Israel had preferred me to be their king: but the kingdom is transferred, and is become my brother's: for it was appointed him by the Lord.\n16 Now therefore I ask one petition of thee: turn not away my face. And she said to him: Say on.\n17 And he said: I pray thee speak to king Solomon (for he cannot deny thee any thing) to give me Abisag the Sunamitess to wife.\n18 And Bethsabee said: Well, I will speak for thee to the king.\n19 Then Bethsabee came to king Solomon, to speak to him for Adonias: and the king arose to meet her, and bowed to her, and sat down upon his throne: and a throne was set for the king's mother, and she sat on his right hand.\n20 And she said to him: I desire one small petition of thee, do not put me to confusion. And the king said to her: My mother, ask: for I must not turn away thy face.\n21 And she said: Let Abisag the Sunamitess be given to Adonias thy brother to wife.\n22 And king Solomon answered, and said to his mother: Why dost thou ask Abisag the Sunamitess for Adonias? ask for him also the kingdom: for he is my elder brother, and hath Abiathar the priest, and Joab the son of Sarvia.\n23 Then king Solomon swore by the Lord, saying: So and so may God do to me, and add more, if Adonias hath not spoken this word against his own life.\n24 And now as the Lord liveth, who hath established me, and placed me upon the throne of David my father, and who hath made me a house, as he promised, Adonias shall be put to death this day.\n25 And king Solomon sent by the hand of Banaias the son of Joiada, who slew him, and he died.\n26 And the king said also to Abiathar the priest: Go to Anathoth to thy lands, for indeed thou art worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou didst carry the ark of the Lord God before David my father, and hast endured trouble in all the troubles my father endured.\n27 So Solomon cast out Abiathar, from being the priest of the Lord, that the word of the Lord might be fulfilled, which he spoke concerning the house of Deli in Silo.\n28 And the news came to Joab, because Joab had turned after Adonias, and had not turned after Solomon: and Joab fled into the tabernacle of the Lord and laid hold on the horn of the altar.\n29 And it was told king Solomon, that Joab was fled into the tabernacle of the Lord, and was by the altar: and Solomon sent Banaias the son of Joiada, saying: Go, kill him.\n30 And Banaias came to the tabernacle of the Lord, and said to him: Thus saith the king: Come forth. And he said: I will not come forth, but here I will die. Banaias brought word back to the king, saying: Thus saith Joab, and thus he answered me.\n31 And the king said to him: Do as he hath said: and kill him, and bury him, and thou shalt remove the innocent blood which hath been shed by Joab, from me, and from the house of my father.\n32 And the Lord shall return his blood upon his own head, because he murdered two men, just and better than himself: and slew them with the sword, my father David not knowing it, Abner the son of Ner, general of the army of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, general of the army of Juda.\n**33 And their blood shall return the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed for ever.

And Semei dwelt in Jerusalem, many days.\n39 And it came to pass after three years, that the servants of Semei ran away to Achis the son of Maacha the king of Geth: and it was told Semei that his servants were gone to Geth.\n40 And Semei arose, and saddled his ass, and went to Achis to Geth to seek his servants, and he brought them out of Geth.\n41 And it was told Solomon that Semei had gone from Jerusalem to Geth, and was come back.\n42 And sending he called for him, and said to him: Did I not protest to thee by the Lord, and tell thee before: On what day soever thou shalt go out and walk abroad any whither, know that thou shalt die? And thou answeredst me: The word that I have heard is good.\n43 Why then hast thou not kept the oath of the Lord, and the commandment that I laid upon thee?\n44 And the king said to Semei: Thou knowest all the evil, of which thy heart is conscious, which thou didst to David my father: the Lord hath returned thy wickedness upon thy own head:\n45 And king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the Lord for ever.\n46 So the king commanded Banaias the son of Joiada: and he went out and struck him, and he died.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"And a chariot of four horses came out of Egypt, for six hundred sides of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty.

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 when he was gone a little from him, a lion found him, and slew him.\n37 Then he found another man, and said to him: Strike me. And he struck him, and wounded him.\n38 So the prophet went, and met the king in the way, and disguised himself by sprinkling dust on his face and his eyes.\n39 And as the king passed by, he cried to the king, and said: Thy servant went out to fight hand to hand: and when a certain man was run away, one brought him to me, and said: Keep this man: and if he shall slip away, thy life shall be for his life, or thou shalt pay a talent of silver.\n40 And whilst I in a hurry turned this way and that, on a sudden he was not to be seen. And the king of Israel said to him: This is thy judgment, which thyself hast decreed.\n41 But he forthwith wiped off the dust from his face, and the king of Israel knew him, that he was one of the prophets.\n42 And he said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast let go out of thy hand a man worthy of death, thy life shall be for his life, and thy people for his people.\n43 And the king of Israel returned to his house, slighting to hear, and raging came into Samaria.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "In what book, at what chapter and verse, does \"The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly from temptation, but to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be tormented.\" appear?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The text \"The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly from temptation, but to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be tormented.\" is part of 2 Peter chapter 2, verse 9 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Book: Deuteronomy\nChapter: 9\nVerse: 8", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Deuteronomy 9:8, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"For in Horeb also thou didst provoke him, and he was angry, and would have destroyed thee,\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where does it say \"And again other two which shall be erected in the corners at the back of the tabernacle.\", in the bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, the book of Exodus, chapter 26, verse 23 states: \"And again other two which shall be erected in the corners at the back of the tabernacle.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"Behold, I will gather together all thy lovers with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all whom thou hast loved, with all whom thou hast hated: and I will gather them together against thee on every side, and will discover thy shame in their sight, and they shall see all thy nakedness.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That one's from *Ezekiel*, chapter *16*.\n\nHere's the chapter it's part of:\n*Ezekiel Chapter 16*\n1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:\n2 Son of man, make known to Jerusalem her abominations.\n3 And thou shalt say: Thus saith the Lord God to Jerusalem: Thy root, and thy nativity is of the land of Chanaan, thy father was an Amorrhite, and thy mother a Cethite.\n4 And when thou wast born, in the day of thy nativity thy navel was not cut, neither wast thou washed with water for thy health, nor salted with salt, nor swaddled with clouts.\n5 No eye had pity on thee to do any of these things for thee, out of compassion to thee: but thou wast cast out upon the face of the earth in the abjection of thy soul, in the day that thou wast born.\n6 And passing by thee, I saw that thou wast trodden under foot in thy own blood. and I said to thee when thou wast in thy blood: Live: I have said to thee: Live in thy blood.\n7 I caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field: and thou didst increase and grow great, and advancedst, and camest to woman's ornament: thy breasts were fashioned, and thy hair grew: and thou wast naked, and full of confusion.\n8 And I passed by thee, and saw thee: and behold thy time was the time of lovers: and I spread my garment over thee, and covered thy ignominy. And I swore to thee, and I entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God: and thou becamest mine.\n9 And I washed thee with water, and cleansed away thy blood from thee: and I anointed thee with oil.\n10 And I clothed thee with embroidery, and shod thee with violet coloured shoes: and I girded thee about with fine linen, and clothed thee with fine garments.\n11 I decked thee also with ornaments, and put bracelets on thy hands, and a chain about thy neck.\n12 And I put a jewel upon thy forehead and earrings in thy ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.\n13 And thou wast adorned with gold, and silver, and wast clothed with fine linen, and embroidered work, and many colours: thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil, and wast made exceeding beautiful: and wast advanced to be a queen.\n14 And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty: for thou wast perfect through my beauty, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God.\n15 But trusting in thy beauty, thou playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and thou hast prostituted thyself to every passenger, to be his.\n16 And taking of thy garments thou hast made thee high places sewed together on each side: and hast played the harlot upon them, as hath not been done before, nor shall be hereafter.\n17 And thou tookest thy beautiful vessels, of my gold, and my silver, which I gave thee, and thou madest thee images of men, and hast committed fornication with them.\n18 And thou tookest thy garments of divers colours, and coveredst them: and settest my oil and my sweet incense before them.\n19 And my bread which I gave thee, the fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou hast set before them for a sweet odour; and it was done, saith the Lord God.\n20 And thou hast taken thy sons, and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne to me: and hast sacrificed the same to them to be devoured. Is thy fornication small?\n21 Thou hast sacrificed and given my children to them, consecrating them by fire.\n22 And after all thy abominations, and fornications, thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked, and full of confusion, trodden under foot in thy own blood.\n23 And it came to pass after all thy wickedness (woe, woe to thee, saith the Lord God)\n24 That thou didst also build thee a common stew, and madest thee a brothel house in every street.\n25 At every head of the way thou hast set up a sign of thy prostitution: and hast made thy beauty to be abominable: and hast prostituted thyself to every one that passed by, and hast multiplied thy fornications.\n26 And thou hast committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, men of large bodies, and hast multiplied thy fornications to provoke me.\n27 Behold, I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and will take away thy justification: and I will deliver thee up to the will of the daughters of the Philistines that hate thee, that are ashamed of thy wicked way.\n28 Thou hast also committed fornication with the Assyrians, because thou wast not yet satisfied: and after thou hadst played the harlot with them, even so thou wast not contented.\n29 Thou hast also multiplied thy fornications in the land of Chanaan with the Chaldeans: and neither so wast thou satisfied.\n30 Wherein shall I cleanse thy heart, saith the Lord God: seeing thou dost all these the works of a shameless prostitute?\n31 Because thou hast built thy brothel house at the head of every way, and thou hast made thy high place in every street: and wast not as a harlot that by disdain enhanceth her price,\n32 But as an adulteress, that bringeth in strangers over her husband.\n33 Gifts are given to all harlots: but thou hast given hire to all thy lovers, and thou hast given them gifts to come to thee from every side, to commit fornication with thee.\n34 And it hath happened in thee contrary to the custom of women in thy fornications, and after thee there shall be no such fornication: for in that thou gavest rewards, and didst not take rewards, the contrary hath been done in thee.\n35 Therefore, O harlot, hear the word of the Lord.\n36 Thus saith the Lord God: Because thy money hath been poured out, and thy shame discovered through thy fornications with thy lovers, and with the idols of thy abominations, by the blood of thy children whom thou gavest them:\n**37 Behold, I will gather together all thy lovers with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all whom thou hast loved, with all whom thou hast hated: and I will gather them together against thee on every side, and will discover thy shame in their sight, and they shall see all thy nakedness.**\n38 And I will judge thee as adulteresses, and they that shed blood are judged: and I will give thee blood in fury and jealousy.\n39 And I will deliver thee into their hands, and they shall destroy thy brothel house, and throw down thy stews: and they shall strip thee of thy garments, and shall take away the vessels of thy beauty: and leave thee naked, and full of disgrace.\n40 And they shall bring upon thee a multitude, and they shall stone thee with stones, and shall slay thee with their swords.\n41 And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and shall execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and thou shalt cease from fornication, and shalt give no hire any more.\n42 And my indignation shall rest in thee: and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will cease and be angry no more.\n43 Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast provoked me in all these things: wherefore I also have turned thy ways upon thy head, saith the Lord God, and I have not done according to thy wicked deeds in all thy abominations.\n44 Behold every one that useth a common proverb, shall use this against thee, saying: As the mother was, so also is her daughter.\n45 Thou art thy mother's daughter, that cast off her husband, and her children: and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who cast off their husbands, and their children: your mother was a Cethite, and your father an Amorrhite.\n46 And thy elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister that dwelleth at thy right hand is Sodom, and her daughters.\n47 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.\n48 As I live, saith the Lord God, thy sister Sodom herself, and her daughters, have not done as thou hast done, and thy daughters.\n49 Behold this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance, and the idleness of her, and of her daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.\n50 And they were lifted up, and committed abominations before me: and I took them away as thou hast seen.\n51 And Samaria committed not half thy sins: but thou hast surpassed them with thy crimes, and hast justified thy sisters by all thy abominations which thou hast done.\n52 Therefore do thou also bear thy confusion, thou that hast surpassed thy sisters with thy sins, doing more wickedly than they: for they are justified above thee, therefore be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, thou that hast justified thy sisters.\n53 And I will bring back and restore them by bringing back Sodom, with her daughters, and by bringing back Samaria, and her daughters: and I will bring those that return of thee in the midst of them.\n54 That thou mayest bear thy shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, comforting them.\n55 And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and thou and thy daughters shall return to your ancient state.\n56 And Sodom thy sister was not heard of in thy mouth, in the day of thy pride,\n57 Before thy malice was laid open: as it is at this time, making thee a reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all the daughters of Palestine round about thee, that encompass thee on all sides.\n58 Thou hast borne thy wickedness, and thy disgrace, saith the Lord God.\n59 For thus saith the Lord God: I will deal with thee, as thou hast despised the oath, in breaking the covenant:\n60 And I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth: and I will establish with thee an everlasting covenant.\n61 And thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed: when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thy elder and thy younger: and I will give them to thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.\n62 And I will establish my covenant with thee: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord,\n63 That thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and mayest no more open thy mouth because of thy confusion, when I shall be pacified toward thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord God.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "In what book, at what chapter and verse, does \"Taking the messes which they received of him: and the greater mess came to Benjamin,

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.\n**55 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": "Could you pinpoint the book and chapter of

Pharao awaked after his rest:\n8 And when morning was come, being struck with fear, he sent to all the interpreters of Egypt, and to all the wise men: and they being called for, he told them his dream, and there was not any one that could interpret it.\n9 Then at length the chief butler remembering, said: I confess my sin:\n10 The king being angry with his servants, commanded me and the chief baker to be cast into the prison of the captain of the soldiers:\n11 Where in one night both of us dreamed a dream foreboding things to come.\n12 There was there a young man a Hebrew, servant to the same captain of the soldiers: to whom we told our dreams,\n13 And we heard what afterwards the event of the thing proved to be so. For I was restored to my office: and he was hanged upon a gibbet.\n14 Forthwith at the king's command, Joseph was brought out of the prison, and they shaved him, and changing his apparel, brought him in to him.\n15 And he said to him: I have dreamed dreams, and there is no one that can expound them: Now I have heard that thou art very wise at interpreting them.\n16 Joseph answered: Without me, God shall give Pharao a prosperous answer.\n17 So Pharao told what he had dreamed: Methought I stood upon the bank of the river,\n18 And seven kine came up out of the river exceeding beautiful and full of flesh: and they grazed on green places in a marshy pasture.\n19 And behold, there followed these, other seven kine, so very ill favoured and lean, that I never saw the like in the land of Egypt:\n20 And they devoured and consumed the former,\n21 And yet gave no mark of their being full: but were as lean and ill favoured as before. I awoke, and then fell asleep again,\n22 And dreamed a dream: Seven ears of corn grew upon one stalk, full and very fair.\n23 Other seven also thin and blasted, sprung of the stock:\n24 And they devoured the beauty of the former: I told this dream to the conjecturers, and there is no man that can expound it.\n25 Joseph answered: The king's dream is one: God hath shewn to Pharao what he is about to do.\n26 The seven beautiful kine, and the seven full ears, are seven years of plenty: and both contain the same meaning of the dream.\n27 And the seven lean and thin kine that came up after them, and the seven thin ears that were blasted with the burning wind, are seven years of famine to come:\n28 Which shall be fulfilled in this order:\n29 Behold, there shall come seven years of great plenty in the whole land of Egypt:\n30 After which shall follow other seven years of so great scarcity, that all the abundance before shall be forgotten: for the famine shall consume all the land,\n31 And the greatness of the scarcity shall destroy the greatness of the plenty.\n32 And for that thou didst see the second time a dream pertaining to the same thing: it is a token of the certainty, and that the word of God cometh to pass, and is fulfilled speedily.\n33 Now therefore let the king provide a wise and industrious man, and make him ruler over the land of Egypt:\n34 That he may appoint overseers over all the countries: and gather into barns the fifth part of the fruits, during the seven fruitful years,\n35 That shall now presently ensue: and let all the corn be laid up under Pharao's hands and be reserved in the cities.\n36 And let it be in readiness, against the famine of seven years to come, which shall oppress Egypt, and the land shall not be consumed with scarcity.\n37 The counsel pleased Pharao and all his servants.\n38 And he said to them: Can we find such another man, that is full of the spirit of God?\n39 He said therefore to Joseph: Seeing God hath shewn thee all that thou hast said, can I find one wiser and one like unto thee?\n40 Thou shalt be over my house, and at the commandment of thy mouth all the people shall obey: only in the kingly throne will I be above thee.\n41 And again Pharao said to Joseph: Behold, I have appointed thee over the whole land of Egypt.\n42 And he took his ring from his own hand, and gave it into his hand: and he put upon him a robe of silk, and put a chain of gold about his neck.\n43 And he made him go up into his second chariot, the crier proclaiming that all should bow their knee before him, and that they should know he was made governor over the whole land of Egypt.\n44 And the king said to Joseph: I am Pharao; without thy commandment no man shall move hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.\n45 And he turned his name, and called him in the Egyptian tongue, The saviour of the world.

wine, and cups: and I said to them: Drink ye wine.\n6 And they answered: We will not drink wine: because Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, commanded us, saying: You shall drink no wine, neither you, nor your children, for ever:\n7 Neither shall ye build houses, nor sow seed, nor plant vineyards, nor have any: but you shall dwell in tents all your days, that you may live many days upon the face of the earth, in which you are strangers.\n8 Therefore we have obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, in all things that he commanded us: so as to drink no wine all our days: neither we, nor our wives, nor our sons, nor our daughters:\n9 Nor to build houses to dwell in, nor to have vineyard, or field, or seed:\n10 But we have dwelt in tents, and have been obedient

Chaldeans, and from the face of the army of Syria: and we have remained in Jerusalem.\n12 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying:\n13 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Go, and

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.\n**44 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?

might come upon the camp of the Jews, and strike them suddenly: and the men that were of the castle were their guides.\n3 And Judas heard of it, and rose up, he and the valiant men, to attack the king's forces that were in Emmaus.\n4 For as yet the army was dispersed from the camp.\n5 And Gorgias came by night into the camp of Judas, and found no man, and he sought them in the mountains: for he said: These men flee from us.\n6 And when it was day, Judas shewed himself in the plain with three thousand men only, who neither had armour nor swords.\n7 And they saw the camp of the Gentiles that it was strong, and the men in breastplates, and the horsemen round about them, and these were trained up to war.\n8 And Judas said to the men that were with him: Fear ye not their multitude, neither be ye afraid of their assault.\n9 Remember in what manner our fathers were saved in the Red Sea, when Pharao pursued them with a great army.\n10 And now let us cry to heaven: and the Lord will have mercy on us, and will remember the covenant of our fathers, and will destroy this army before our face this day:\n11 And all nations shall know that there is one that redeemeth and delivereth Israel.\n12 And the strangers lifted up their eyes, and saw them coming against them.\n13 And they went out of the camp to battle, and they that were with Judas sounded the trumpet.\n14 And they joined battle: and the Gentiles were routed, and fled into the plain.\n15 But all the hindmost of them fell by the sword, and they pursued them as far as Gezeron, and even to the plains of Idumea, and of Azotus, and of Jamnia: and there fell of them to the number of three thousand men.\n16 And Judas returned again with his army that followed him,\n17 And he said to the people: Be not greedy of the spoils: for there is war before us:\n18 And Gorgias and his army are near us in the mountain: but stand ye now against our enemies, and overthrow them, and you shall take the spoils afterwards with safety.\n19 And as Judas was speaking these words, behold part of them appeared looking forth from the mountain.\n20 And Gorgias saw that his men were put to flight, and that they had set fire to the camp: for the smoke that was seen declared what was done.\n21 And when they had seen this, they were seized with great fear, seeing at the same time Judas and his army in the plain ready to fight.\n22 So they all fled away into the land of the strangers.\n23 And Judas returned to take the spoils of the camp, and they got much gold, and silver, and blue silk, and purple of the sea, and great riches.\n24 And returning home they sung a hymn, and blessed God in heaven, because he is good, because his mercy endureth for ever.\n25 So Israel had a great deliverance that day.\n26 And such of the strangers as escaped, went and told Lysias all that had happened.\n27 And when he heard these things, he was amazed and discouraged: because things had not succeeded in Israel according to his mind, and as the king had commanded.\n28 So the year following Lysias gathered together threescore thousand chosen men, and five thousand horsemen, that he might subdue them.\n29 And they came into Judea, and pitched their tents in Bethoron, and Judas met them with ten thousand men.\n30 And they saw that the army was strong, and he prayed, and said: Blessed art thou, O Saviour of Israel, who didst break the violence of the mighty by the hand of thy servant David, and didst deliver up the camp of the strangers into the hands of Jonathan the son of Saul and of his armourbearer.\n31 Shut up this army in the hands of thy people Israel, and let them be confounded in their host and their horsemen.\n32 Strike them with fear, and cause the boldness of their strength to languish, and let them quake at their own destruction.\n33 Cast them down with the sword of them that love thee: and let all that know thy name, praise thee with hymns.\n34 And they joined battle: and there fell of the army of Lysias five thousand men.\n35 And when Lysias saw that his men were put to flight, and how bold the Jews were, and that they were ready either to live, or to die manfully, he went to Antioch, and chose soldiers, that they might come again into Judea with greater numbers.\n36 Then Judas, and his brethren said: Behold our enemies are discomfited: let us go up now to cleanse the holy places and to repair them.\n37 And all the army assembled together, and they went up into mount Sion.\n38 And they saw the sanctuary desolate, and the altar profaned, and the gates burnt, and shrubs growing up in the courts as in a forest, or on the mountains, and the chambers joining to the temple thrown down.\n39 And they rent their garments, and made great lamentation, and put ashes on their heads:\n40

had been defiled into an unclean place.\n44 And he considered about the altar of holocausts that had been profaned, what he should do with it.\n45 And a good counsel came into their minds, to pull it down: lest it should be a reproach to them, because the Gentiles had defiled it; so they threw it down.\n46 And they laid up the stones in the mountain of the temple in a convenient place, till there should come a prophet, and give answer concerning them.\n47 Then they took whole stones according to the law, and built a new altar according to the former:\n48 And they built up the holy places, and the things that were within the temple: and they sanctified the temple, and the courts.\n49 And they made new holy vessels, and brought in the candlestick, and the altar of incense, and the table into the temple.\n50 And they put incense upon the altar, and lighted up the lamps that were upon the candlestick, and they gave light in the temple.\n51 And they set the loaves upon the table, and hung up the veils, and finished all the works that they had begun to make.\n52 And they arose before the morning on the five and twentieth day of the ninth month (which is the month of Casleu) in the hundred and forty-eighth year.\n**53 And they offered sacrifice according to the law upon the new altar of holocausts which they had made.**\n54 According to the time, and according to the day wherein the

that had prospered them.\n56 And they kept the dedication of the altar eight days, and they offered holocausts with joy, and sacrifices of salvation, and of praise.\n57 And they adorned the front of the temple with crowns of gold, and escutcheons, and they renewed the gates, and the chambers, and hanged doors upon them.\n58 And there was exceeding great joy among the people, and the reproach of the Gentiles was turned away.\n59 And Judas, and his brethren, and all the church of Israel decreed, that the day of the dedication of the altar should be kept in its season from year to year for eight days, from the five and twentieth day of the month of Casleu, with joy and gladness.\n60 They built up also at that time mount Sion, with high walls, and strong towers round about, lest the

*6*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*1 Maccabees Chapter 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.\n**11 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. 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": "Can you tell me the book, chapter, and verse for \"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.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"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.\" is written in 1 Samuel 1:26, within the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which chapter and book contains \"And it happened that Absalom met the servants of David, riding on a mule: and as the mule went under a thick and large oak, his head stuck in the oak: and while he hung between the heaven and the earth, the mule on which he rode passed on.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Your verse is located in *2 Samuel*, chapter *18*.\n\nTake a look at the whole chapter:\n*2 Samuel Chapter 18*\n1 And David having reviewed his people, appointed over them captains of thousands and of hundreds,\n2 And sent forth a third part of the people under the hand of Joab, and a third part under the hand of Abisai the son of Sarvia Joab's brother, and a third part under the hand of Ethai, who was of Geth: and the king said to the people: I also will go forth with you.\n3 And the people answered: Thou shalt not go forth: for if we flee away, they will not much mind us: or if half of us should fall, they will not greatly care: for thou alone art accounted for ten thousand: it is better therefore that thou shouldst be in the city to succour us.\n4 And the king said to them: What seemeth good to you, that will I do. And the king stood by the gate: and all the people went forth by their troops, by hundreds and by thousands.\n5 And the king commanded Joab, and Abisai, and Ethai, saying: Save me the boy Absalom. And all the people heard the king giving charge to all the princes concerning Absalom.\n6 So the people went out into the field against Israel and the battle was fought in the forest of Ephraim.\n7 And the people of Israel were defeated there by David's army, and a great slaughter was made that day of twenty thousand men.\n8 And the battle there was scattered over the face of all the country, and there were many more of the people whom the forest consumed, than whom the sword devoured that day.\n**9 And it happened that Absalom met the servants of David, riding on a mule: and as the mule went under a thick and large oak, his head stuck in the oak: and while he hung between the heaven and the earth, the mule on which he rode passed on.**\n10 And one saw this and told Joab, saying: I saw Absalom hanging upon an oak.\n11 And Joab said to the man that told him: If thou sawest him, why didst thou not stab him to the ground, and I would have given thee ten sicles of silver, and belt?\n12 And he said to Joab: If thou wouldst have paid down in my hands a thousand pieces of silver, I would not lay my hands upon the king's son: for in our hearing he king charged thee, and Abisai, and Ethai, saying: Save me the boy Absalom.\n13 Yea and if I should have acted boldly against my own life, this could not have been hid from the king, and wouldst thou have stood by me?\n14 And Joab said: Not as thou wilt, but will set upon him in thy sight. So he took three lances in his hand, and thrust them into the heart of Absalom: and whilst he yet panted for life, sticking on the oak,\n15 Ten young men, armourbearers of Joab, ran up, and striking him slew him.\n16 And Joab sounded the trumpet, and kept back the people from pursuing after Israel in their flight, being willing to spare he multitude.\n17 And they took Absalom, and cast him into a great pit in the forest, and they laid an exceeding great heap of stories upon him: but all Israel fled to their own dwellings.\n18 Now Absalom had reared up for himself, in his lifetime, a pillar, which is in the king's valley: for he said: I have no son, and this shall be the monument of my name. And he called the pillar by is own name, and it is called the hand of Absalom, to this day.\n19 And Achimaas the son of Sadoc said: I will run and tell the king, that the Lord hath done judgment for him from the hand of his enemies.\n20 And Joab said to him: Thou shalt not be the messenger this day, but shalt bear tidings another day: this day I will not have thee bear tidings, because the king's son is dead.\n21 And Joab said to Chusai: Go, and tell the king what thou hast seen. Chusai bowed down to Joab, and ran.\n22 Then Achimaas the son of Sadoc said to Joab again: Why might not I also run after Chusai? And Joab said to him: Why wilt thou run, my son? thou wilt not be the bearer of good tidings.\n23 He answered: But what if I run? And he said to him: Run. Then Achimaas running by a nearer way passed Chusai.\n24 And David sat between the two gates: and the watchman that was on the top of the gate upon the wall, lifting up his eyes, saw a man running alone.\n25 And crying out he told the king: and the king said: If he be alone, there are good tidings in his mouth. And as he was coming apace, and drawing nearer,\n26 The watchman saw another man running, and crying aloud from above, he said: I see another man running alone. And the king said: He also is a good messenger.\n27 And the watchman said: The running of the foremost seemeth to me like the running of Achimaas the son of Sadoc. And the king said: He is a good man: and cometh with good news.\n28 And Achimaas crying out, said to the king: God save thee, O king. And falling down before the king with his face to the ground, he said: Blessed be the Lord thy God, who hath shut up the men that have lifted up their hands against the lord my king.\n29 And the king said: Is the young man Absalom safe?

And Chusai answering him, said: Let the enemies of my lord, the king, and all that rise against him unto evil, be as the young man is.\n33 The king therefore being much moved, went up to the high chamber over the gate, and wept.

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

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",

daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.\n50 And they were lifted up, and committed abominations before me: and I took them away as thou hast seen.\n51 And Samaria committed not half thy sins: but thou hast surpassed them with thy crimes, and hast justified thy sisters by all thy abominations which thou hast done.\n52 Therefore do thou also bear thy confusion, thou that hast surpassed thy sisters with thy sins, doing more wickedly than they: for they are justified above thee, therefore be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, thou that hast justified thy sisters.\n53 And I will bring back and restore them by bringing back Sodom, with her daughters, and by bringing back Samaria, and her daughters: and I will bring those that return of thee in the midst of them.\n54 That thou mayest bear thy shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, comforting them.\n55 And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall return to their

I have left me seven thousand men, that have not bowed their knees to Baal.\n5 Even so then at this present time also, there is a remnant saved according to the election of grace.\n6 And if by grace, it is not now by works: otherwise grace is no more grace.\n7 What then? That which Israel sought, he hath not obtained: but the election hath obtained it; and the rest have been blinded.\n8 As it is written: God hath given them the spirit of insensibility; eyes that they should not see; and ears that they should not hear, until this present day.\n9 And David saith: Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumbling block, and a recompense unto them.\n10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see: and bow down their back always.\n11 I say then, have they so stumbled, that they should fall?

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.\n**19 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. This is my body.\n23 And having taken the chalice, giving thanks, he gave it to them. And they all drank of it.\n24 And he said to them: This is my blood of the new testament, which shall be shed for many.\n25 Amen I say to you, that I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I shall drink it new in the kingdom of God.\n26 And when they had said an hymn, they went forth to the mount of Olives.\n27 And Jesus saith to them: You will all be scandalized in my regard this night; for it is written, I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep shall be dispersed.\n28 But after I shall be risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.\n29 But Peter saith to him: Although all shall be scandalized in thee, yet not I.\n30 And Jesus saith to him: Amen I say to thee, to day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shall deny me thrice.\n31 But he spoke the more vehemently: Although I should die together with thee, I will not deny thee. And in like manner also said they all.\n32 And they came to a farm called Gethsemani. And he saith to his disciples: Sit you here, while I pray.\n33 And he taketh Peter and James and John with him; and he began to fear and to be heavy.\n34 And he saith to them: My soul is sorrowful even unto death; stay you here, and watch.\n35 And when he was gone forward a little, he fell flat on the ground; and he prayed, that if it might be, the hour might pass from him.\n36 And he saith: Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee: remove this chalice from me; but not what I will, but what thou wilt.\n37 And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping. And he saith to Peter: Simon, sleepest thou? couldst thou not watch one hour?\n38 Watch ye, and pray that you enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.\n39 And going away again, he prayed, saying the same words.\n40 And when he returned, he found them again asleep, (for their eyes were heavy,) and they knew not what to answer him.\n41 And he cometh the third time, and saith to them: Sleep ye now, and take your rest. It is enough: the hour is come: behold the Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners.\n42 Rise up, let us go. Behold, he that will betray me is at hand.\n43 And while he was yet speaking, cometh Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve: and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the ancients.\n44 And he that betrayed him, had given them a sign, saying: Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he; lay hold on him, and lead him away carefully.\n45 And when he was come, immediately going up to him, he saith: Hail, Rabbi; and he kissed him.\n46 But they laid hands on him, and held him.\n47 And one of them that stood by, drawing a sword, struck a servant of the chief priest, and cut off his ear.\n48 And Jesus answering, said to them: Are you come out as to a robber, with swords and staves to apprehend me?\n49 I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and you did not lay hands on me. 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? Who all condemned him to be guilty of death.\n65 And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say unto him: Prophesy: and the servants struck him with the palms of their hands.\n66 Now when Peter was in the court below, there cometh one of the maidservants of the high priest.\n67 And when she had seen Peter warming himself, looking on him she saith: Thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.\n68 But he denied, saying: I neither know nor understand what thou sayest. And he went forth before the court; and the cock crew.\n69 And again a maidservant seeing him, began to say to the standers by: This is one of them.\n70 But he denied again. And after a while they that stood by said again to Peter: Surely thou art one of them; for thou art also a Galilean.\n71 But he began to curse and to swear, saying; I know not this man of whom you speak.\n72 And immediately the cock crew again. And Peter remembered the word that Jesus had said unto him: Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt thrice deny me.
