But neither indeed are you now able; for you are yet carnal.\n3 For, whereas there is among you envying and contention, are you not carnal, and walk according to man?\n4 For while one saith, I indeed am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollo; are you not men? What then is Apollo, and what is Paul?\n5 The ministers of him whom you have believed; and to every one as the Lord hath given.\n6 I have planted, Apollo watered, but God gave the increase.\n7 Therefore, neither he that planteth is any thing, nor he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.\n8 Now he that planteth, and he that watereth, are one.

For the temple of God is holy, which you are.\n18 Let no man deceive himself: if any man among you seem to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.\n19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written: I will catch the wise in their own craftiness.\n20 And again: The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.\n21 Let no man therefore glory in men.\n22 For all things are yours, whether it be Paul, or Apollo, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; for all are yours;\n23 And you are Christ's; and Christ is God's.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"Servants, be obedient to them that are your lords according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in the simplicity of your heart, as to Christ:\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book Ephesians, chapter 6.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\nEphesians Chapter 6\n1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is just.\n2 Honour thy father and thy mother, which is the first commandment with a promise:\n3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest be long lived upon earth.\n4 And you, fathers, provoke not your children to anger; but bring them up in the discipline and correction of the Lord.\n5 Servants, be obedient to them that are your lords according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in the simplicity of your heart, as to Christ:\n6 Not serving to the eye, as it were pleasing men, but, as the servants of Christ doing the will of God from the heart,\n7 With a good will serving, as to the Lord, and not to men.\n8 Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man shall do, the same shall he receive from the Lord, whether he be bond, or free.\n9 And you, masters, do the same things to them, forbearing threatenings, knowing that the Lord both of them and you is in heaven; and there is no respect of persons with him.\n10 Finally, brethren, be strengthened in the Lord, and in the might of his power.\n11 Put you on the armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the deceits of the devil.\n12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and power, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places.\n13 Therefore take unto you the armour of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and to stand in all things perfect.\n14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of justice,\n15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace:\n16 In all things taking the shield of faith, wherewith you may be able to extinguish all the fiery darts of the most wicked one.\n17 And take unto you the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit (which is the word of God).\n18 By all prayer and supplication praying at all times in the spirit; and in the same watching with all instance and supplication for all the saints:\n19 And for me, that speech may be given me, that I may open my mouth with confidence, to make known the mystery of the gospel.\n20 For which I am an ambassador in a chain, so that therein I may be bold to speak according as I ought.\n21 But that you also may know the things that concern me, and what I am doing, Tychicus, my dearest brother and faithful minister in the Lord, will make known to you all things:\n22 Whom I have sent to you for this same purpose, that you may know the things concerning us, and that he may comfort your hearts.\n23 Peace be to the brethren and charity with faith, from God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.\n24 Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in incorruption.

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.

Do I praise you?

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": "Tell me what 1 Maccabees 4:58 says", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at 1 Maccabees 4:58 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"And there was exceeding great joy among the people, and the reproach of the Gentiles was turned away.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Read me 1 Maccabees 9:44", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Old Testament\n1 Maccabees 9:44 (Douay Rheims)\n\"And Jonathan said to his company: Let us arise, and fight against our enemies: for it is not now as yesterday, and the day before.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which chapter and book contains \"That all of you have conspired against me, and there is no one to inform me, especially when even my son hath entered into league with the soil of Isai?

So long was the tabernacle carried, till they came to the place of setting it up.\n22 The sons of Ephraim also moved their camp by their troops, in whose army the prince was Elisama the son of Ammiud.\n23 And in the tribe of the sons of Manasses, the prince was Gamaliel the son of Phadassur.\n24 And in the tribe of Benjamin, the prince was Abidan the son of Gedeon.\n25 The last of all the camp marched the sons of Dan by their troops, in whose army the prince was Ahiezer the son of Ammisaddai.\n26 And in the tribe of the sons of Aser, the prince was Phegiel the son of Ochran.\n27 And in the tribe of the sons of Nephtali, the prince was Ahira the son of Enan.\n28 This was the order of the camps, and marches of the children of Israel by their troops, when they set forward.\n29 And Moses said to Hobab the son of Raguel the Madianite, his kinsman: We are going towards the place which the Lord will give us: come with us, that we may do thee good: for the Lord hath promised good things to Israel.\n30 But he answered him: I will not go with thee, but I will return to my country, wherein I was born.\n31 And he said: Do not leave us: for thou knowest in what places we should encamp in the wilderness, and thou shalt be our guide.\n32 And if thou comest with us, we will give thee what is the best of the riches which the Lord shall deliver to us.\n33 So they marched from the mount of the Lord three days' journey, and the ark of the covenant of the Lord went before them, for three days providing a place for the camp.\n34 The cloud also of the Lord was over them by day when they marched.\n35 And when the ark was lifted up, Moses said: Arise, O Lord, and let thy enemies be scattered, and let them that hate thee, flee from before thy face.\n36 And when it was set down, he said: Return, O Lord, to the multitude of the host of Israel.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Book: Proverbs\nChapter: 11\nVerse: 23", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at Proverbs 11:23 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"The desire of the just is all good: the expectation of the wicked is indignation.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Verse 9 from chapter 26 in Psalm?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at Psalm 26:9 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"Turn not away thy face from me; decline not in thy wrath from thy servant.

Am not I an apostle? Have not I seen Christ Jesus our Lord? Are not you my work in the Lord?\n2 And if unto others I be not an apostle, but yet to you I am. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.\n3 My defence with them that do examine me is this.\n4 Have not we power to eat and to drink?\n5 Have we not power to carry about a woman, a sister, as well as the rest of the apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?\n6 Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to do this?\n7 Who serveth as a soldier at any time, at his own charges? Who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? Who feedeth the flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?\n8 Speak I these things according to man? Or doth not the law also say these things?\n9 For it is written in the law of Moses: Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?\n10 Or doth he say this indeed for our sakes? For these things are written for our sakes: that he that plougheth, should plough in hope; and he that thrasheth, in hope to receive fruit.\n11 If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great matter if we reap your carnal things?\n12 If others be partakers of this power over you, why not we rather? Nevertheless, we have not used this power: but we bear all things, lest we should give any hindrance to the gospel of Christ.\n13 Know you not, that they who work in the holy place, eat the things that are of the holy place; and they that serve the altar, partake with the altar?\n14 So also the Lord ordained that they who preach the gospel, should live by the gospel.\n15 But I have used none of these things. Neither have I written these things, that they should be so done unto me: for it is good for me to die, rather than that any man should make my glory void.\n16 For if I preach the gospel, it is no glory to me, for a necessity lieth upon me: for woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel.\n17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation is committed to me:\n18 What is my reward then? That preaching the gospel, I may deliver the gospel without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.\n19 For whereas I was free as to all, I made myself the servant of all, that I might gain the more.\n20 And I became to the Jews, a Jew, that I might gain the Jews:\n21 To them that are under the law, as if I were under the law, (whereas myself was not under the law,) that I might gain them that were under the law. To them that were without the law, as if I were without the law, (whereas I was not without the law of God, but was in the law of Christ,) that I might gain them that were without the law.\n22 To the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak. I became all things to all men, that I might save all.\n23 And I do all things for the gospel's sake: that I may be made partaker thereof.\n24 Know you not that they that run in the race, all run indeed, but one receiveth the prize? So run that you may obtain.\n25 And every one that striveth for the mastery, refraineth himself from all things: and they indeed that they may receive a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible one.\n26 I therefore so run, not as at an uncertainty: I so fight, not as one beating the air:\n27 But I chastise my body, and bring it into subjection: lest perhaps, when I have preached to others, I myself should become a castaway.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you read 1 Maccabees chapter 2, verse 33?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Old Testament\n1 Maccabees 2:33 (Douay Rheims)\n\"And they said to them: Do you still resist? come forth, and do according to the edict of king Antiochus, and you shall live.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Show me 1 Maccabees 10:58", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From the Old Testament, in 1 Maccabees 10:58 (Douay Rheims), we read:\n\"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.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"Moreover all the children of Israel saw the fire coming down, and the glory of the Lord upon the house: and falling down with their faces to the ground, upon the stone pavement, they adored and praised the Lord: because he is good, because his mercy endureth for ever.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of 2 Chronicles, chapter 7, verse 3 of the Old Testament, you'll find \"Moreover all the children of Israel saw the fire coming down, and the glory of the Lord upon the house: and falling down with their faces to the ground, upon the stone pavement, they adored and praised the Lord: because he is good, because his mercy endureth for ever.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Recite 2 Maccabees 15:14", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in 2 Maccabees 15:14 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"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.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"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": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of Exodus, chapter 9.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\nExodus Chapter 9\n1 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.\n2 But if thou refuse, and withhold them still:\n3 Behold my hand shall be upon thy fields: and a very grievous murrain upon thy horses, and asses, and camels, and oxen, and sheep.\n4 And the Lord will make a wonderful difference between the possessions of Israel and the possessions of the Egyptians, that nothing at all shall die of those things that belong to the children of Israel.\n5 And the Lord appointed a time, saying: To morrow will the Lord do this thing in the land.\n6 The Lord therefore did this thing the next day: and all the beasts of the Egyptians died, but of the beasts of the children of Israel there died not one.\n7 And Pharao sent to see: and there was not any thing dead of that which Israel possessed.

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

chapter 13.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n1 Maccabees Chapter 13\n1 Now Simon heard that Tryphon was gathering together a very great army, to invade the land of Juda, and to destroy it.\n2 And seeing that the people was in dread, and in fear, he went up to Jerusalem, and assembled the people:\n3 And exhorted them, saying: You know what great battles I and my brethren, and the house of my father, have fought for the laws, and the sanctuary, and the distresses that we have seen:\n4 By reason whereof all my brethren have lost their lives for Israel's sake, and I am left alone.\n5 And now far be it from me to spare my life in any time of trouble: for I am not better than my brethren.\n6 I will avenge then my nation and the sanctuary, and our children, and wives: for all the heathens are gathered together to destroy us out of mere malice.\n7 And the spirit of the people was enkindled as soon as they heard these words.\n8 And they answered with a loud voice, saying: Thou art our leader in the place of Judas, and Jonathan thy brother.\n9 Fight thou our battles, and we will do whatsoever thou shalt say to us.\n10 So gathering together all the men of war, he made haste to finish all the walls of Jerusalem, and he fortified it round about.\n11 And he sent Jonathan the son of Absalom, and with him a new army into Joppe, and he cast out them that were in it, and himself remained there.\n12 And Tryphon removed from Ptolemais with a great army, to invade the land of Juda, and Jonathan was with him in custody.\n13 But Simon pitched in Addus, over against the plain.\n14 And when Tryphon understood that Simon was risen up in the place of his brother Jonathan, and that he meant to join battle with him, he sent messengers to him,\n15 Saying: We have detained thy brother Jonathan for the money that he owed in the king's account, by reason of the affairs which he had the management of.\n16 But now send a hundred talents of silver, and his two sons for hostages, that when he is set at liberty he may not revolt from us, and we will release him.\n17 Now Simon knew that he spoke deceitfully to him, nevertheless he ordered the money, and the children to be sent: lest he should bring upon himself a great hatred of the people of Israel, who might have said:\n18 Because he sent not the money, and the children, therefore is he lost.\n19 So he sent the children, and the hundred talents: and he lied, and did not let Jonathan go.\n20 And after this Tryphon entered within the country, to destroy it: and they went about by the way that leadeth to Ador: and Simon and his army marched to every place whithersoever they went.\n21 And they that were in the castle, sent messengers to Tryphon, that he should make haste to come through the desert, and send them victuals.\n22 And Tryphon made ready all his horsemen to come that night: but there fell a very great snow, and he came not into the country of Galaad.\n23 And when he approached to Bascama, he slew Jonathan and his sons there.\n24 And Tryphon returned, and went into his own country.\n25 And Simon sent, and took the bones of Jonathan his brother, and buried them in Modin, in the city of his fathers.\n26 And all Israel bewailed him with great lamentation: and they mourned for him many days.\n27 And Simon built over the sepulchre of his father and of his brethren, a building lofty to the sight, of polished stone behind and before:\n28 And he set up seven pyramids one against another for his father and his mother, and his four brethren:\n29 And round about these he set great pillars: and upon the pillars arms for a perpetual memory: and by the arms ships carved, which might be seen by all that sailed on the sea.\n30 This is the sepulchre that he made in Modin even unto this day.\n31 But Tryphon when he was upon a journey with the young king Antiochus, treacherously slew him.\n32 And he reigned in his place, and put on the crown of Asia: and brought great evils upon the land.\n33 And Simon built up the strong holds of Judea, fortifying them with high towers, and great walls, and gates, and bars: and he stored up victuals in the fortresses.\n34 And Simon chose men and sent to king Demetrius, to the end that he should grant an immunity to the land: for all that Tryphon did was to spoil.\n35 And king Demetrius in answer to this request, wrote a letter in this manner:\n36 King Demetrius to Simon the high priest, and friend of kings, and to the ancients, and to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n37 The golden crown, and the palm, which you sent, we have received: and we are ready to make

and the heat came upon his head, and he died in Bethulia his own city, and was buried there with his fathers.\n4 And Judith his relict was a widow now three years and six months.\n5 And she made herself a private chamber in the upper part of her house, in which she abode shut up with her maids.\n6 And she wore haircloth upon her loins, and fasted all the days of her life, except the sabbaths, and new moons, and the feasts of the house of Israel.\n7 And she was exceedingly beautiful, and her husband left her great riches, and very many servants, and large possessions of herds of oxen, and flocks of sheep.\n8 And she was greatly renowned among all, because she feared the Lord very much, neither was there any one that spoke an ill word of her.\n9 When therefore she had heard that Ozias had promised that he would deliver up the city after the fifth day, she sent to the ancients Chabri and Charmi.\n10 And they came to her, and she said to them: What is this word, by which Ozias hath consented to give up the city to the Assyrians, if within five days there come no aid to us?\n11 And who are you that tempt the Lord?\n12 This is not a word that may draw down mercy, but rather that may stir up wrath, and enkindle indignation.\n13 You have set a time for the mercy of the Lord, and you have appointed him a day, according to your pleasure.\n14 But forasmuch as the Lord is patient, let us be penitent for this same thing, and with many tears let us beg his pardon:\n15 For God will not threaten like man, nor be inflamed to anger like the son of man.\n16 And therefore let us humble our souls before him, and continuing in an humble spirit, in his service:\n17 Let us ask the Lord with tears, that according to his will so he would shew his mercy to us: that as our heart is troubled by their pride, so also we may glorify in our humility.\n18 For we have not followed the sins of our fathers, who forsook their God, and worshipped strange gods.\n19 For which crime they were given up to their enemies, to the sword, and to pillage, and to confusion: but we know no other God but him.\n20 Let us humbly wait for his consolation, and the Lord our God will require our blood of the afflictions of our enemies, and he will humble all the nations that shall rise up against us, and bring them to disgrace.\n21 And now, brethren, as you are the ancients among the people of God, and their very soul resteth upon you: comfort their hearts by your speech, that they may be mindful how our fathers were tempted that they might be proved, whether they worshipped their God truly.\n22 They must remember how our father Abraham was tempted, and being proved by many tribulations, was made the friend of God.\n23 So Isaac, so Jacob, so Moses, and all that have pleased God, passed through many tribulations, remaining faithful.\n24 But they that did not receive the trials with the fear of the Lord, but uttered their impatience and the reproach of their murmuring against the Lord,\n25 Were destroyed by the destroyer, and perished by serpents.\n26 As for us therefore let us not revenge ourselves for these things which we suffer.\n27 But esteeming these very punishments to be less than our sins deserve, let us believe that these scourges of the Lord, with which like servants we are chastised, have happened for our amendment, and not for our destruction.\n28 And Ozias and the ancients said to her: All things which thou hast spoken are true, and there is nothing to be reprehended in thy words.\n29 Now therefore pray for us, for thou art a holy woman, and one fearing God.\n30 And Judith said to them: As you know that what I have been able to say is of God:\n31 So that which I intend to do prove ye if it be of God, and pray that God may strengthen my design.\n32 You shall stand at the gate this night, and I will go out with my maidservant: and pray ye, that as you have said, in five days the Lord may look down upon his people Israel.\n33 But I desire that you search not into what I am doing, and till I bring you word let nothing else be done but to pray for me to the Lord our God.\n34 And Ozias the prince of Juda said to her: Go in peace, and the Lord be with thee to take revenge of our enemies.

close to the loins of a man, so have I brought close to me all of the house of Israel, and all the house of Juda, saith the Lord: that they might be my people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not hear.\n12 Thou shalt speak therefore to them this word: Thus saith the Lord God of Israel: Every bottle shall be filled with wine, and they shall say to thee: Do we not know that every bottle shall be filled with wine?\n13 And thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, and the kings of the race of David that sit upon his throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. with drunkenness.\n14 And I will scatter them every man from his brother, and fathers and sons in like manner,

your God, before it be dark, and before your feet stumble upon the dark mountains: you shall look for light, and he will turn it into the shadow of death, and into darkness.\n17 But if you will not

And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent his friends to him, saying: Lord, trouble not thyself; for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof.\n7 For which cause neither did I think myself worthy to come to thee; but say the word, and my servant shall be healed.\n8 For I also am a man subject to authority, having under me soldiers: and I say to one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doth it.\n9 Which Jesus hearing, marvelled: and turning about to the multitude that followed him, he said: Amen I say to you, I have not found so great faith, not even in Israel.\n10 And they who were sent, being returned to the house, found the servant whole who had been sick.\n11 And it came to pass afterwards, that he went into a city that is called Naim; and there went with him his disciples, and a great multitude.\n12 And when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold a dead man was carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow: and a great multitude of the city was with her.\n13 Whom when the Lord had seen, being moved with mercy towards her, he said to her: Weep not.\n14 And he came near and touched the bier.

And women thrust themselves of their accord into the holy places, and brought in things that were not lawful.\n5 The altar also was filled with unlawful things, which were forbidden by the laws.\n6 And neither were the sabbaths kept, nor the solemn days of the fathers observed, neither did any man plainly profess himself to be a Jew.\n7 But they were led by bitter constraint on the king's birthday to the sacrifices: and when the feast of Bacchus was kept, they were compelled to go about crowned with ivy in honour of Bacchus.\n8 And there went out a decree into the neighbouring cities of the Gentiles, by the suggestion of the Ptolemeans, that they also should act in like manner against the Jews, to oblige them to sacrifice:\n9 And whosoever would not conform themselves to the ways of the Gentiles, should be put to death: then was misery to be seen.\n10 For two women were accused to have circumcised their children: whom, when they had openly led about through the city with the infants hanging at their breasts, they threw down headlong from the walls.\n11 And others that had met together in caves that were near, and were keeping the sabbath day privately, being discovered by Philip, were burnt with fire, because they made a conscience to help themselves with their hands, by reason of the religious observance of the day.\n12 Now I beseech those that shall read this book, that they be not shocked at these calamities, but that they consider the things that happened, not as being for the destruction, but for the correction of our nation.\n13 For it is a token of great goodness when sinners are not suffered to go on in their ways for a long time, but are presently punished.\n14 For, not as with other nations (whom the Lord patiently expecteth, that when the day of judgment shall come, he may punish them in the fulness of their sins:)\n15 Doth he also deal with us, so as to suffer our sins to come to their height, and then take vengeance on us.\n16 And therefore he never withdraweth his mercy from us: but though he chastise his people with adversity, he forsaketh them not.\n17 But let this suffice in a few words for a warning to the readers. And now we must come to the narration.\n18 Eleazar one of the chief of the scribes, a man advanced in years, and of a comely countenance, was pressed to open his mouth to eat swine's flesh.\n19 But he, choosing rather a most glorious death than a hateful life, went forward voluntarily to the torment.\n20 And considering in what manner he was come to it, patiently bearing, he determined not to do any unlawful things for the love of life.\n21 But they that stood by, being moved with wicked pity, for the old friendship they had with the man, taking him aside, desired that flesh might be brought, which it was lawful for him to eat, that he might make as if he had eaten, as the king had commanded of the flesh of the sacrifice:\n22 That by so doing he might be delivered from death: and for the sake of their old friendship with the man they did him this courtesy.\n23 But he began to consider the dignity of his age, and his ancient years, and the inbred honour of his grey head, and his good life and conversation from a child: and he answered without delay, according to the ordinances of the holy law made by God, saying, that he would rather be sent into the other world.\n24 For it doth not become our age, said he, to dissemble: whereby many young persons might think that Eleazar, at the age of fourscore and ten years, was gone over to the life of the heathens:\n25 And so they, through my dissimulation, and for a little time of a corruptible life, should be deceived, and hereby I should bring a stain and a curse upon my old age.\n26 For though, for the present time, I should be delivered from the punishments of men, yet should I not escape the hand of the Almighty neither alive nor dead.\n27 Wherefore by departing manfully out of this life, I shall shew myself worthy of my old age:\n28 And I shall leave an example of fortitude to young men, if with a ready mind and constancy I suffer an honourable death, for the most venerable and most holy laws. And having spoken thus, he was forthwith carried to execution.\n29 And they that led him, and had been a little before more mild, were changed to wrath for the words he had spoken, which they thought were uttered out of arrogancy.\n30 But when he was now ready to die with the stripes, he groaned, and said: O Lord, who hast the holy knowledge, thou knowest manifestly that whereas I might be delivered from death, I suffer grevious pains in body: but in soul am well content to suffer these things because I fear thee.\n31 Thus did this man die, leaving not only to young men, but also to the whole nation, the memory of his death for an example of virtue and fortitude.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you read Acts chapter 1, verse 8?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Acts 1:8 in the New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"But you shall receive the power of the Holy Ghost coming upon you, and you shall be witnesses unto me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and even to the uttermost part of the earth.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house.

For behold he prayeth.\n12 (And he saw a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hands upon him, that he might receive his sight.)\n13 But Ananias answered: Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints in Jerusalem.\n14 And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that invoke thy name.\n15 And the Lord said to him: Go thy way; for this man is to me a vessel of election, to carry my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel.\n16 For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.\n17 And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house. And laying his hands upon him, he said: Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus hath sent me, he that appeared to thee in the way as thou camest; that thou mayest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.\n18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it were scales, and he received his sight; and rising up, he was baptized.\n19 And when he had taken meat, he was strengthened. And he was with the disciples that were at Damascus, for some days.\n20 And immediately he preached Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.\n21 And all that heard him, were astonished, and said: Is not this he who persecuted in Jerusalem those that called upon this name: and came hither for that intent, that he might carry them bound to the chief priests?\n22 But Saul increased much more in strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt at Damascus, affirming that this is the Christ.\n23 And when many days were passed, the Jews consulted together to kill him.\n24 But their laying in wait was made known to Saul. And they watched the gates also day and night, that they might kill him.\n25 But the disciples taking him in the night, conveyed him away by the wall, letting him down in a basket.\n26 And when he was come into Jerusalem, he essayed to join himself to the disciples; and they all were afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.\n27 But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and told them how he had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken to him; and how in Damascus he had dealt confidently in the name of Jesus.\n28 And he was with them coming in and going out in Jerusalem, and dealing confidently in the name of the Lord.\n29 He spoke also to the Gentiles, and disputed with the Greeks; but they sought to kill him.\n30 Which when the brethren had known, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him away to Tarsus.\n31 Now the church had peace throughout all Judea, and Galilee, and Samaria; and was edified, walking in the fear of the Lord, and was filled with the consolation of the Holy Ghost.\n32 And it came to pass that Peter, as he passed through, visiting all, came to the saints who dwelt at Lydda.\n33 And he found there a certain man named Eneas, who had kept his bed for eight years, who was ill of the palsy.\n34 And Peter said to him: Eneas, the Lord Jesus Christ healeth thee: arise, and make thy bed. And immediately he arose.\n35 And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron, saw him: who were converted to the Lord.\n36 And in Joppe there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.\n37 And it came to pass in those days that she was sick, and died. Whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.\n38 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppe, the disciples hearing that Peter was there, sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not be slack to come unto them.\n39 And Peter rising up, went with them.

And all the widows stood about him weeping, and shewing him the coats and garments which Dorcas made them.\n40 And they all being put forth, Peter kneeling down prayed, and turning to the body, he said: Tabitha, arise.

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.\n25 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.

If it be yet in vain.\n5 He therefore who giveth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you; doth he do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of the faith?\n6 As it is written: Abraham believed God, and it was reputed to him unto justice.\n7 Know ye therefore, that they who are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.\n8 And the scripture, foreseeing, that God justifieth the Gentiles by faith, told unto Abraham before: In thee shall all nations be blessed.\n9 Therefore they that are of faith, shall be blessed with faithful Abraham.\n10 For as many as are of the works of the law, are under a curse. For it is written: Cursed is every one, that abideth not in all things, which are written in the book of the law to do them.\n11 But that in the law no man is justified with God, it is manifest: because the just man liveth by faith.\n12 But the law is not of faith: but, He that doth those things, shall live in them.\n13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written: Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:\n14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Christ Jesus: that we may receive the promise of the Spirit by faith.\n15 Brethren (I speak after the manner of man,) yet a man's testament, if it be confirmed, no man despiseth, nor addeth to it.\n16 To Abraham were the promises made and to his seed.

But God gave it to Abraham by promise.\n19 Why then was the law? It was set because of transgressions, until the seed should come, to whom he made the promise, being ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.\n20 Now a mediator is not of one: but God is one.\n21 Was the law then against the promises of God? God forbid. For if there had been a law given which could give life, verily justice should have been by the law.\n22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise, by the faith of Jesus Christ, might be given to them that believe.\n23 But before the faith came, we were kept under the law shut up, unto that faith which was to be revealed.\n24 Wherefore the law was our pedagogue in Christ, that we might be justified by faith.\n25 But after the faith is come, we are no longer under a pedagogue.\n26 For you are all the children of God by faith, in Christ Jesus.\n27 For as many of you as have been baptized in Christ, have put on Christ.\n28 There is neither Jew nor Greek: there is neither bond nor free: there is neither male nor female.

And they sent after him to Lachis, and killed him there.\n20 And they brought him away upon horses, and he was buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.\n21 And all the people of Juda took Azarias, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amasias.\n22 He built Elath, and restored it to Juda, after that the king slept with his fathers.\n23 In the fifteenth year of Amasias son of Joas king of Juda, reigned Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel in Samaria, one and forty years:\n24 And he did that which was evil before the Lord. He departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.\n25 He restored the borders of Israel from the entrance of Emath, unto the sea of the wilderness, according to the word of the Lord the God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant Jonas the son of Amathi, the prophet, who was of Geth, which is in Opher.\n26 For the Lord saw the affliction of Israel that it was exceeding bitter, and that they were consumed even to them that were shut up in prison, and the lowest persons, and that there was no one to help Israel.\n27 And the Lord did not say that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven, but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joas.\n28 But the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his velour, wherewith he fought, and how he restored Damascus, and Emath to Juda in Israel, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?\n29 And Jeroboam slept with his fathers the kings

For if by the offence of one, many died; much more the grace of God, and the gift, by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.\n16 And not as it was by one sin, so also is the gift. For judgment indeed was by one unto condemnation; but grace is of many offences, unto justification.\n17 For if by one man's offence death reigned through one; much more they who receive abundance of grace, and of the gift, and of justice, shall reign in life through one, Jesus Christ.\n18 Therefore, as by the offence of one, unto all men to condemnation; so also by the justice of one, unto all men to justification of life.\n19 For as by the disobedience of one man, many were made sinners; so also by the obedience of one, many shall be made just.\n20 Now the law entered in, that sin might abound.

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

reigned Ezechias the son of Achaz king of Juda.\n2 He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Abi the daughter of Zacharias.\n3 And he did that which was good before the Lord, according to all that David his father had done.\n4 He destroyed the high places, and broke the statues in pieces, and cut down the groves, and broke the brazen serpent, which Moses had made: for till that time the children of Israel burnt incense to it: and he called its name Nohestan.\n5 He trusted in the Lord the God of Israel: so that after him there was none like him among all the kings of Juda, nor any of them that were before him:\n6 And he stuck to the Lord, and departed not from his steps, but kept his commandments, which the Lord commanded Moses.\n7 Wherefore the Lord also was with him, and in all things, to which he went forth, he behaved himself wisely. And he rebelled against the king of the Assyrians, and served him not.\n8 He smote the Philistines as far as Gaza, and all their borders, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.\n9 In the fourth year of king Ezechias, which was the seventh year of Osee the son of Ela king of Israel, Salmanasar king of the Assyrians came up to Samaria, and besieged it,\n10 And took it. For after three years, in the sixth year of Ezechias, that is, in the ninth year of Osee king of Israel, Samaria was taken:\n11 And the king of the Assyrians carried away Israel into Assyria, and placed them in Hale, and in Habor by the rivers of Gozan in the cities of the Medes:\n12 Because they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord their God, but transgressed his covenant: all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded, they would not hear nor do.\n13 In the fourteenth year of king Ezechias, Sennacherib king of the Assyrians came up against the fenced cities of Juda: and took them.\n14 Then Ezechias king of Juda sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians to Lachis, saying: I have offended, depart from me: and all that thou shalt put upon me, I will bear. And the king of the Assyrians put a tax upon Ezechias king of Juda, of three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold.\n15 And Ezechias gave all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the king's treasures.\n16 At that time Ezechias broke the doors of the temple of the Lord, and the plates of gold which he had fastened on them, and gave them to the king of the Assyrians.\n17 And the king of the Assyrians sent Tharthan and Rabsaris, and Rabsaces from Lachis to king Ezechias with a strong army to Jerusalem: and they went up and came to Jerusalem, and they stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the way of the fuller's field.\n18 And they called for the king: and there went out to them Eliacim the son of Helcias who was over the house, and Sobna the scribe, and Joahe the son of Asaph the recorder.\n19 And Rabsaces said to them: Speak to Ezechias: Thus saith the great king, the king of the Assyrians: What is this confidence, wherein thou trustest?\n20 Perhaps thou hast taken counsel, to prepare thyself for battle. On whom dost thou trust, that thou darest to rebel?\n21 Dost thou trust in Egypt a staff of a broken reed, upon which if a man lean, it will break and go into his hand, and pierce it? so is Pharao king of Egypt, to all that trust in him.\n22 But if you say to me: We trust in the Lord our God: is it not he, whose high places and altars Ezechias hath taken away: and hath commanded Juda and Jerusalem: You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?\n23 Now therefore come over to my master the king of the Assyrians, and I will give you two thousand horses, and see whether you be able to have riders for them.\n24 And how can you stand against one lord of the least of my master's servants? Dost thou trust in Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?\n25 Is it without the will of the Lord that I am come up to this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me: Go up to this land and destroy it.\n26 Then Eliacim the son of Helcias, and Sobna, and Joahe said to Rabsaces: We pray thee speak to us thy servants in Syriac: for we understand that tongue: and speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the hearing of the people that are upon the wall.\n27 And Rabsaces answered them, saying: Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee, to speak these words, and not rather to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their urine with you?\n28 Then Rabsaces stood, and cried out with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said: Hear the words of the great king, the king of the Assyrians.\n29 Thus saith the king: Let not Ezechias deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of my hand.\n30 Neither let him make you trust in the Lord, saying: The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of the Assyrians.\n31 Do not hearken to Ezechias.

inheritance.\n3 Therefore prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord God: Because you have been desolate, and trodden under foot on every side, and made an inheritance to the rest of the nations, and are

brooks, and to the valleys, and to desolate places, and ruinous walls, and to the cities that are forsaken, that are spoiled, and derided by the rest of the nations round about.\n5 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: In the fire of my zeal I have spoken of the rest of the nations, and of all Edom, who have taken my land to themselves, for an inheritance with joy, and with all the heart, and with the mind: and have cast it out to lay it waste.\n6 Prophesy therefore concerning the land of Israel, and say to the mountains, and to the hills, to the ridges, and to the valleys: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I have spoken in my zeal, and in my indignation, because you have borne the shame of the Gentiles.\n7 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: I have lifted up my hand, that the Gentiles

chapter:\nGenesis Chapter 47\n1 Then Joseph went in and told Pharao, saying: My father and brethren, their sheep and their herds, and all that they possess, are come out of the land of Chanaan: and behold they stay in the land of Gessen.\n2 Five men also the last of his brethren, he presented before the king:\n3 And he asked them: What is your occupation? They answered: We thy servants are shepherds, both we, and our fathers.\n4 We are come to sojourn in thy land, because there is no grass for the flocks of thy servants, the famine being very grievous in the land of Chanaan: and we pray thee to give orders that we thy servants may be in the land of Gessen.\n5 The king therefore said to Joseph: Thy father and thy brethren are come to thee.\n6 The land of Egypt is before thee: make them dwell in the best place, and give them the land of Gessen. And if thou knowest that there are industrious men among them, make them rulers over my cattle.\n7 After this Joseph brought in his father to the king, and presented him before him: and he blessed him.\n8 And being asked by him: How many are the days of the years of thy life?\n9 He answered: The days of my pilgrimage are a hundred and thirty years, few, and evil, and they are not come up to the days of the pilgrimage of my fathers.\n10 And blessing the king, he went out.\n11 But Joseph gave a possession to his father and his brethren in Egypt, in the best place of the land, in Ramesses, as Pharao had commanded.\n12 And he nourished them, and all his father's house, allowing food to every one.\n13 For in the whole world there was want of bread, and a famine had oppressed the land: more especially of Egypt and Chanaan.\n14 Out of which he gathered up all the money for the corn which they bought, and brought it into the king's treasure.\n15 And when the buyers wanted money, all Egypt came to Joseph, saying: Give us bread: why should we die in thy presence, having now no money.\n16 And he answered them: Bring me your cattle, and for them I will give you food, if you have no money.\n17 And when they had brought them, he gave them food in exchange for their horses, and sheep, and oxen, and asses and he maintained them that year for the exchange of their cattle.\n18 And they came the second year, and said to him: We will not hide from our lord, how that our money is spent, and our cattle also are gone: neither art thou ignorant that we have nothing now left but our bodies and our lands.\n19 Why therefore shall we die before thy eyes? we will be thine, both we and our lands: buy us to be the king's servants, and give us seed, lest for want of tillers the land be turned into a wilderness.\n20 So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt, every man selling his possessions, because of the greatness of the famine. And he brought it into Pharao's hands:\n21 And all its people from one end of the borders of Egypt, even to the other end thereof,\n22 Except the land of the priests, which had been given them by the king: to whom also a certain allowance of food was given out of the public stores, and therefore they were not forced to sell their possessions.\n23 Then Joseph said to the people: Behold as you see, both you and your lands belong to Pharao: take seed and sow the fields,\n24 That you may have corn. The fifth part you shall give to the king: the other four you shall have for seed, and for food for your families and children.\n25 And they answered: Our life is in thy hand: only let my lord look favourably upon us, and we will gladly serve the king.\n26 From that time unto this day, in the whole land of Egypt, the fifth part is paid to the king, and it is become as a law, except the land of the priests, which was free from this covenant.\n27 So Israel dwelt in Egypt, that is, in the land of Gessen, and possessed it: and grew, and was multiplied exceedingly.\n28 And he lived in it seventeen years: and all the days of his life came to a hundred and forty-seven years.\n29 And when he saw that the day of his death drew nigh, he called his son Joseph, and said to him: If I have found favour in thy sight, put thy hand under my thigh; and thou shalt shew me this kindness and truth, not to bury me in Egypt:\n30 But I will sleep with my fathers, and thou shalt take me away out of this land, and bury me in the burying place of my ancestors.

It is better for thee having one eye to enter into life, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.\n10 See that you despise not one of these little ones: for I say to you, that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.\n11 For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.\n12 What think you? If a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them should go astray: doth he not leave the ninety-nine in the mountains, and go to seek that which is gone astray?\n13 And if it so be that he find it: Amen I say to you, he rejoiceth more for that, than for the ninety-nine that went not astray.\n14 Even so it is not the will of your Father, who is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.\n15 But if thy brother shall offend against thee, go, and rebuke him between thee and him alone. If he shall hear thee, thou shalt gain thy brother.\n16 And if he will not hear thee, take with thee one or two more: that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may stand.\n17 And if he will not hear them: tell the church. 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?\n22 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": "Which book and what chapter and verse include \"My servant Caleb, who being full of another spirit hath followed me, I will bring into this land which he hath gone round: and his seed shall possess it.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You can find \"My servant Caleb, who being full of another spirit hath followed me, I will bring into this land which he hath gone round: and his seed shall possess it.\" in the Old Testament, specifically in Numbers 14:24.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Read me Romans 6:14", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The New Testament\nRomans 6:14 (Douay Rheims)\n\"For sin shall not have dominion over you; for you are not under the law, but under grace.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does it say in Sirach chapter 7 verse 31?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Sirach 7:31 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"With all thy soul fear the Lord, and reverence his priests.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"All these things live, and remain for ever, and for every use all things obey him.\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book Sirach, chapter 42.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\nSirach Chapter 42\n1 Repeat not the word which thou hast heard, and disclose not the thing that is secret; so shalt thou be truly without confusion, and shall find favour before all men: be not ashamed of any of these things, and accept no person to sin thereby:\n2 Of the law of the most High, and of his covenant, and of judgment to justify the ungodly:\n3 Of the affair of companions and travellers, and of the gift of the inheritance of friends:\n4 Of exactness of balance and weights, of getting much or little:\n5 Of the corruption of buying, and of merchants, and of much correction of children, and to make the side of a wicked slave to bleed.\n6 Sure keeping is good over a wicked wife.\n7 Where there are many hands, shut up, and deliver all things in number, and weight: and put all in writing that thou givest out or receivest in.\n8 Be not ashamed to inform the unwise and foolish, and the aged, that are judged I by young men: and thou shalt be well instructed in all things, and well approved in the sight of all men living.\n9 The father waketh for the daughter when no man knoweth, and the care for her taketh away his sleep, when she is young, lest she pass away the flower of her age, and when she is married, lest she should be hateful:\n10 In her virginity, lest she should be corrupted, and be found with child in her father's house: and having a husband, lest she should misbehave herself, or at the least become barren.\n11 Keep a sure watch over a shameless daughter: lest at any time she make thee become a laughingstock to thy enemies, and a byword in the city, and a reproach among the people, and she make thee ashamed before all the multitude.\n12 Behold not everybody's beauty: and tarry not among women.\n13 For from garments cometh a moth, and from a woman the iniquity of a man.\n14 For better is the iniquity of a man, than a woman doing a good turn, and a woman bringing shame and reproach.\n15 I will now remember the works of the Lord, and I will declare the things I have seen.

And whereas he saith,\n27 All things are put under him; undoubtedly, he is excepted, who put all things under him.\n28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then the Son also himself shall be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.\n29 Otherwise what shall they do that are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not again at all? why are they then baptized for them?\n30 Why also are we in danger every hour?\n31 I die daily, I protest by your glory, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.\n32 If (according to man) I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what doth it profit me, if the dead rise not again? Let us eat and drink, for to morrow we shall die.\n33 Be not seduced: Evil communications corrupt good manners.\n34 Awake, ye just, and sin not. For some have not the knowledge of God, I speak it to your shame.\n35 But some man will say: How do the dead rise again? or with what manner of body shall they come?\n36 Senseless man, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die first.\n37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be; but bare grain, as of wheat, or of some of the rest.\n38 But God giveth it a body as he will: and to every seed its proper body.\n39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but one is the flesh of men, another of beasts, another of birds, another of fishes.\n40 And there are bodies celestial, and bodies terrestrial: but, one is the glory of the celestial, and another of the terrestrial.\n41 One is the glory of the sun, another the glory of the moon, and another the glory of the stars. For star differeth from star in glory.\n42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it shall rise in incorruption.\n43 It is sown in dishonour, it shall rise in glory. It is sown in weakness, it shall rise in power.\n44 It is sown a natural body, it shall rise a spiritual body. If there be a natural body, there is also a spiritual body, as it is written:\n45 The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit.\n46 Yet that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; afterwards that which is spiritual.\n47 The first man was of the earth, earthly: the second man, from heaven, heavenly.\n48 Such as is the earthly, such also are the earthly: and such as is the heavenly, such also are they that are heavenly.\n49 Therefore as we have borne the image of the earthly, let us bear also the image of the heavenly.\n50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot possess the kingdom of God: neither shall corruption possess incorruption.\n51 Behold, I tell you a mystery. We shall all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be changed.\n52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall rise again incorruptible: and we shall be changed.\n53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption; and this mortal must put on immortality.\n54 And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.\n55 O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?\n56 Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law.\n57 But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.\n58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast and unmoveable; always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- Book: 1 Maccabees\n- Chapter: 12\n- Verse: 6", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from 1 Maccabees 12:6 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"Jonathan the high priest, and the ancients of the nation, and the priests, and the rest of the people of the Jews, to the Spartans, their brethren, greeting.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"And Samuel took a little vial of oil and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said: Behold, the Lord hath anointed thee to be prince over his inheritance, and thou shalt deliver his people out of the hands of their enemies, that are round about them.

And the Lord answered: Behold he is hidden at home.\n23 And they ran and fetched him thence: and he stood in the midst of the people, and he was higher than any of the people from the shoulders and upward.\n24 And Samuel said to all the people: Surely you see him whom the Lord hath chosen, that there is none like him among all the people. And all the people cried and said: God save the king.\n25 And Samuel told the people the law of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it up before the Lord: and Samuel sent away all the people, every one to his own house.\n26 Saul also departed to his own house in Gabaa: and there went with him a part of the army, whose hearts God had touched.\n27 But the children of Belial said: Shall this fellow be able to save us?

For it is expedient for thee that one of thy members should perish, rather than that thy whole body be cast into hell.\n30 And if thy right hand scandalize thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is expedient for thee that one of thy members should perish, rather than that thy whole body be cast into hell.\n31 And it hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a bill of divorce.\n32 But I say to you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, excepting for the cause of fornication, maketh her to commit adultery: and he that shall marry her that is put away, committeth adultery.\n33 Again you have heard that it was said to them of old, Thou shalt not forswear thyself: but thou shalt perform thy oaths to the Lord.\n34 But I say to you not to swear at all, neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God:\n35 Nor by the earth, for it is his footstool: nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great king:\n36 Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.\n37 But let your speech be yea, yea: no, no: and that which is over and above these, is of evil.\n38 You have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.\n39 But I say to you not to resist evil: but if one strike thee on thy right cheek, turn to him also the other:\n40 And if a man will contend with thee in judgment, and take away thy coat, let go thy cloak also unto him.\n41 And whosoever will force thee one mile, go with him other two,\n42 Give to him that asketh of thee and from him that would borrow of thee turn not away.\n43 You have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thy enemy.\n44 But I say to you, Love your enemies: do good to them that hate you: and pray for them that persecute and calumniate you:\n45 That you may be the children of your Father who is in heaven, who maketh his sun to rise upon the good, and bad, and raineth upon the just and the unjust.\n46 For if you love them that love you, what reward shall you have? do not even the publicans this?\n47 And if you salute your brethren only, what do you more? do not also the heathens this?\n48 Be you therefore perfect, as also your heavenly Father is perfect.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"And shall burn her in the sight of all, delivering up to the fire her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, and her dung.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from Numbers, chapter 19.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\nNumbers Chapter 19\n1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:\n2 This is the observance of the victim, which the Lord hath ordained.

And when she was come to Solomon, she proposed to him all that was in her heart.\n2 And Solomon explained to her all that she proposed: and there was not any thing that he did not make clear unto her.\n3 And when she had seen these things, to wit, the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had built,\n4 And the meats of his table, and the dwelling places of his servants, and the attendance of his officers, and their apparel, his cupbearers also, and their garments, and the victims which he offered in the house of the Lord: there was no more spirit in her, she was so astonished.\n5 And she said to the king: The word is true which I heard in my country of thy virtues and wisdom.\n6 I did not believe them that told it, until I came, and my eyes had seen, and I had proved that scarce one half of thy wisdom had been told me: thou hast exceeded the same with thy virtues.\n7 Happy are thy men, and happy are thy servants, who stand always before thee, and hear thy wisdom.\n8 Blessed be the Lord thy God, who hath been pleased to set thee on his throne, king of the Lord thy God. Because God loveth Israel, and will preserve them for ever: therefore hath he made thee king over them, to do judgment and justice.\n9 And she gave to the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices in great abundance, and most precious stones: there were no such spices as these which the queen of Saba gave to king Solomon.\n10 And the servants also of Hiram, with the servants of Solomon, brought gold from Ophir, and thyine trees, and most precious stones:\n11 And the king made of the thyine trees stairs in the house of the Lord, and in the king's house, and harps and psalteries for the singing men: never were there seen such trees in the land of Juda.\n12 And king Solomon gave to the queen of Saba all that she desired, and that she asked, and many more things than she brought to him: so she returned, and went to her own country with her servants.\n13 And the weight of the gold, that was brought to Solomon every year, was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold:\n14 Beside the sum which the deputies of divers nations, and the merchants were accustomed to bring, and all the kings of Arabia, and the lords of the lands, who I brought gold and silver to Solomon.\n15 And king Solomon made two hundred golden spears, of the sum of six hundred pieces of gold, which went to every spear:\n16 And three hundred golden shields of three hundred pieces of gold, which went to the covering of every shield: and the king put them in the armoury, which was compassed with a wood.\n17 The king also made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with pure gold.\n18 And six steps to go up to the throne, and a footstool of gold, and two arms one on either side, and two lions standing by the arms:\n19 Moreover twelve other little lions standing upon the steps on both sides: there was not such a throne in any kingdom.\n20 And all the vessels of the king's table were of gold, and the vessels of the house of the forest of Libanus were of the purest gold.

For in that year all that is sold shall return to the owner, and to the ancient possessor.\n29 He that selleth a house within the walls of a city, shall have the liberty to redeem it, until one year be expired:\n30 If he redeem it not, and the whole year be fully out, the buyer shall possess it, and his posterity for ever, and it cannot be redeemed, not even in the jubilee.\n31 But if the house be in a village, that hath no walls, it shall be sold according to the same law as the fields: if it be not redeemed before, in the jubilee it shall return to the owner.\n32 The houses of Levites, which are in cities, may always be redeemed:\n33 If they be not redeemed, in the jubilee they shall all return to the owners, because the houses of the cities of the Levites are for their possessions among the children of Israel.\n34 But let not their suburbs be sold, because it is a perpetual possession.\n35 If thy brother be impoverished, and weak of hand, and thou receive him as a stranger and sojourner, and he live with thee,\n36 Take not usury of him nor more than thou gavest: fear thy God, that thy brother may live with thee.\n37 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor exact of him any increase of fruits.\n38 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that I might give you the land of Chanaan, and might be your God.\n39 If thy brother constrained by poverty, sell himself to thee, thou shalt not oppress him with the service of bondservants:\n40 But he shall be as a hireling, and a sojourner: he shall work with thee until the year of the jubilee,\n41 And afterwards he shall go out with his children, and shall return to his kindred and to the possession of his fathers,\n42 For they are my servants, and I brought them out of the land of Egypt: let them not be sold as bondmen:\n43 Afflict him not by might, but fear thy God.\n44 Let your bondmen, and your bondwomen, be of the nations that are round about you.\n45 And of the strangers that sojourn among you, or that were born of them in your land, these you shall have for servants:\n46 And by right of inheritance shall leave them to your posterity, and shall possess them for ever. But oppress not your brethren the children of Israel by might.\n47 If the hand of a stranger or a sojourner grow strong among you, and thy brother being impoverished sell himself to him, or to any of his race:\n48 After the sale he may be redeemed. He that will of his brethren shall redeem him:\n49 Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, or his kinsman, by blood, or by affinity. But if he himself be able also, he shall redeem himself,\n50 Counting only the years from the time of his selling unto the year of the jubilee: and counting the money that he was sold for, according to the number of the years and the reckoning of a hired servant,\n51 If there be many years that remain until the jubilee, according to them shall he also repay the price.\n52 If few, he shall make the reckoning with him according to the number of the years, and shall repay to the buyer of what remaineth of the years,\n53 His wages being allowed for which he served before: he shall not afflict him violently in thy sight.\n54 And if by these means he cannot be redeemed, in the year of the jubilee he shall go out with his children.\n55 For the children of Israel are my servants, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Scripture from Mark 7:1?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the New Testament, Mark chapter 7, verse 1 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"And there assembled together unto him the Pharisees and some of the scribes, coming from Jerusalem.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "In what book, at what chapter and verse, does \"Take what is thine, and go thy way: I will also give to this last even as to thee.\" appear?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You can find \"Take what is thine, and go thy way: I will also give to this last even as to thee.\" in the New Testament, specifically in Matthew 20:14.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"The Lord is a jealous God, and a revenger: the Lord is a revenger, and hath wrath: the Lord taketh vengeance on his adversaries, and he is angry with his enemies.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from Nahum, chapter 1.\n\nWant the full chapter?

And when he sent them away to their dwellings and had blessed them,\n8 He said to them: With much substance and riches, you return to your settlements, with silver and gold, brass and iron, and variety of raiment: divide the prey of your enemies with your brethren.\n9 So the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasses returned, and parted from the children of Israel in Silo, which is in Chanaan, to go into Galaad the land of their possession, which they had obtained according to the commandment of the Lord by the hand of Moses.\n10 And when they were come to the banks of the Jordan, in the land of Chanaan, they built an altar immensely great near the Jordan.\n11 And when the children of Israel had heard of it, and certain messengers had brought them an account that the children of Ruben, and of Cad, and the half tribe of Manasses had built an altar in the land of Chanaan, upon the banks of the Jordan, over against the children of Israel:\n12 They all assembled in Silo, to go up and fight against them.\n13 And in the mean time they sent to them into the land of Galaad, Phinees the son of Eleazar the priest,\n14 And ten princes with him, one of every tribe.\n15 Who came to the children of Ruben, and of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasses, into the land of Galaad, and said to them:\n16 Thus saith all the people of the Lord: What meaneth this transgression?

And David said: Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thy sight, and he will say: Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved. But truly as the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, there is but one step (as I may say) between me and death.\n4 And Jonathan said to David: Whatsoever thy soul shall say to me, I will do for thee.\n5 And David said to Jonathan: Behold to morrow is the new moon, and I according to custom am wont to sit beside the king to eat: let me go then that I may be hid in the field till the evening of the third day.\n6 If thy father look and inquire for me, thou shalt answer him: David asked me that he might run to Bethlehem his own city: because there are solemn sacrifices there for all his tribe.\n7 If he shall say, It is well: thy servant shall have peace: but if he be angry, know that his malice is come to its height.\n8 Deal mercifully then with thy servant: for thou hast brought me thy servant into a covenant of the Lord with thee. But if there be any iniquity in me, do thou kill me, and bring me not in to thy father.\n9 And Jonathan said: Far be this from thee: for if I should certainly know that evil is determined by my father against thee, I could do no otherwise than tell thee.\n10 And David answered Jonathan: Who shall bring me word, if thy father should answer thee harshly concerning me?\n11 And Jonathan said to David: Come and let us go out into the field. And when they were both of them gone out into the field,\n12 Jonathan said to David: O Lord God of Israel, if I shall discover my father's mind, to morrow or the day after, and there be any thing good for David, and I send not immediately to thee, and make it known to thee,\n13 May the Lord do so and so to Jonathan and add still more. But if my father shall continue in malice against thee, I will discover it to thy ear, and will send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace, and the Lord be with thee, as he hath been with my father.\n14 And if I live, thou shalt shew me the kindness of the Lord: but if I die,\n15 Thou shalt not take away thy kindness from my house for ever, when the Lord shall have rooted out the enemies of David, every one of them from the earth, may he take away Jonathan from his house, and may the Lord require it at the hands of David's enemies.\n16 Jonathan therefore made a covenant with the house of David: and the Lord required it at the hands of David's enemies.\n17 And Jonathan swore again to David, because he loved him: for he loved him as his own soul.\n18 And Jonathan said to him: To morrow is the new moon, and thou wilt be missed:\n19 For thy seat will be empty till after to morrow. So thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place, where thou must be hid on the day when it is lawful to work, and thou shalt remain beside the stone, which is called Ezel.\n20 And I will shoot three arrows near it, and will shoot as if I were exercising myself at a mark.\n21 And I will send a boy, saying to him: Go and fetch me the arrows.\n22 If I shall say to the boy: Behold the arrows are on this side of thee, take them up: come thou to me, because, there is peace to thee, and there is no evil, as the Lord liveth. But if I shall speak thus to the boy: Behold the arrows are beyond thee: go in peace, for the Lord hath sent thee away.\n23 And concerning the word which I and thou have spoken, the Lord be between thee and me for ever.\n24 So David was hid in the field, and the new moon came, and the king sat down to eat bread.\n25 And when the king sat down upon his chair (according to custom) which was beside the wall, Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's side, and David's place appeared empty.\n26 And Saul said nothing that day, for he thought it might have happened to him, that he was not clean, nor purified.\n27 And when the second day after the new moon was come, David's place appeared empty again. And Saul said to Jonathan his son: Why cometh not the son of Isai to meat neither yesterday nor to day?\n28 And Jonathan answered Saul: He asked leave of me earnestly to go to Bethlehem,\n29 And he said: Let me go, for there is a solemn sacrifice in the city, one of my brethren hath sent for me: and now if I have found favour in thy eyes, I will go quickly, and see my brethren. For this cause he came not to the king's table.\n30 Then Saul being angry against Jonathan said to him: Thou son of a woman that is the ravisher of a man, do I not know that thou lovest the son of Isai to thy own confusion and to the confusion of thy shameless mother?\n31 For as long as the son of Isai liveth upon earth, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Therefore now presently send, and fetch him to me: for he is the son of death.\n32 And Jonathan answering Saul his father, said: Why shall he die: what hath he done?\n33 And Saul caught up a spear to strike him. And Jonathan understood that it was determined by his father to kill David.\n34 So Jonathan rose from the table in great anger, and did not eat bread on the second day after the new moon.

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

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.\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 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.

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

So long was the tabernacle carried, till they came to the place of setting it up.\n22 The sons of Ephraim also moved their camp by their troops, in whose army the prince was Elisama the son of Ammiud.\n23 And in the tribe of the sons of Manasses, the prince was Gamaliel the son of Phadassur.\n24 And in the tribe of Benjamin, the prince was Abidan the son of Gedeon.\n25 The last of all the camp marched the sons of Dan by their troops, in whose army the prince was Ahiezer the son of Ammisaddai.\n26 And in the tribe of the sons of Aser, the prince was Phegiel the son of Ochran.\n27 And in the tribe of the sons of Nephtali, the prince was Ahira the son of Enan.\n28 This was the order of the camps, and marches of the children of Israel by their troops, when they set forward.\n29 And Moses said to Hobab the son of Raguel the Madianite, his kinsman: We are going towards the place which the Lord will give us: come with us, that we may do thee good: for the Lord hath promised good things to Israel.\n30 But he answered him: I will not go with thee, but I will return to my country, wherein I was born.\n31 And he said: Do not leave us: for thou knowest in what places we should encamp in the wilderness, and thou shalt be our guide.\n32 And if thou comest with us, we will give thee what is the best of the riches which the Lord shall deliver to us.\n33 So they marched from the mount of the Lord three days' journey, and the ark of the covenant of the Lord went before them, for three days providing a place for the camp.\n34 The cloud also of the Lord was over them by day when they marched.\n35 And when the ark was lifted up, Moses said: Arise, O Lord, and let thy enemies be scattered, and let them that hate thee, flee from before thy face.\n36 And when it was set down, he said: Return, O Lord, to the multitude of the host of Israel.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does it say in Wisdom chapter 14 verse 26?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, Wisdom chapter 14, verse 26 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"Forgetfulness of God, defiling of souls, changing of nature, disorder in marriage, and the irregularity of adultery and uncleanness.\"", "role": "assistant" } ]

Maccabees Chapter 3\n1 Then his son Judas, called Machabeus, rose up in his stead.\n2 And all his brethren helped him, and all they that had joined themselves to his father, and they fought with cheerfulness the battle of Israel.\n3 And he got his people great honour, and put on a breastplate as a giant, and girt his warlike armour about him in battles, and protected the camp with his sword.\n4 In his acts he was like a lion, and like a lion's whelp roaring for his prey.\n5 And he pursued the wicked and sought them out, and them that troubled his people he burnt with fire:\n6 And his enemies were driven away for fear of him, and all the workers of iniquity were troubled: and salvation prospered in his hand.\n7 And he grieved many kings, and made Jacob glad with his works, and his memory is blessed for ever.\n8 And he went through the cities of Juda, and destroyed the wicked out of them, and turned away wrath from Israel.\n9 And he was renowned even to the utmost part of the earth, and he gathered them that were perishing.\n10 And Apollonius gathered together the Gentiles, and a numerous and great army from Samaria, to make war against Israel.\n11 And Judas understood it, and went forth to meet him: and he overthrew him, and killed him: and many fell down slain, the rest fled away.\n12 And he took their spoils, and Judas took the sword of Apollonius, and fought with it all his lifetime.\n13 And Seron captain of the army of Syria heard that Judas had assembled a company of the faithful, and a congregation with him,\n14 And he said: I will get me a name, and will be glorified in the kingdom, and will overthrow Judas, and those that are with him, that have despised the edict of the king.\n15 And he made himself ready: and the host of the wicked went up with him, strong succours, to be revenged of the children of Israel.\n16 And they approached even as far as Bethoron: and Judas went forth to meet him, with a small company.\n17 But when they saw the army coming to meet them, they said to Judas: How shall we, being few, be able to fight against so great a multitude and so strong, and we are ready to faint with fasting to day?\n18 And Judas said: It is an easy matter for many to be shut up in the hands of a few: and there is no difference in the sight of the God of heaven to deliver with a great multitude, or with a small company:\n19 For the success of war is not in the multitude of the army, but strength cometh from heaven.\n20 They come against us with an insolent multitude, and with pride, to destroy us, and our wives, and our children, and to take our spoils.\n21 But we will fight for our lives and our laws:\n22 And the Lord himself will overthrow them before our face: but as for you, fear them not.\n23 And as soon as he had made an end of speaking, he rushed suddenly upon them: and Seron and his host were overthrown before him:\n24 And he pursued him by the descent of Bethoron even to the plain, and there fell of them eight hundred men, and the rest fled into the land of the Philistines.\n25 And the fear of Judas and of his brethren, and the dread of them fell upon all the nations round about them.\n26 And his fame came to the king, and all nations told of the battles of Judas.\n27 Now when king Antiochus heard these words, he was angry in his mind: and he sent and gathered the forces of all his kingdom, an exceeding strong army.\n28 And he opened his treasury, and gave out pay to the army for a year: and he commanded them, that they should be ready for all things.\n29 And he perceived that the money of his treasures failed, and that the tributes of the country were small because of the dissension, and the evil that he had brought upon the land, that he might take away the laws of old times:\n30 And he feared that he should not have as formerly enough, for charges and gifts, which he had given before with a liberal hand: for he had abounded more than the kings that had been before him.\n31 And he was greatly perplexed in mind, and purposed to go into Persia, and to take tributes of the countries, and to gather much money.\n32 And he left Lysias, a nobleman of the blood royal, to oversee the affairs of the kingdom, from the river Euphrates even to the river of Egypt:\n33 And to bring up his son Antiochus, till he came again.\n34 And he delivered to him half the army, and the elephants: and he gave him charge concerning all that he would have done, and concerning the inhabitants of Judea, and Jerusalem:\n35 And that he should send an army against them, to destroy and root out the strength of Israel, and the remnant of Jerusalem, and to take away the memory of them from that place:\n36 And that he should settle strangers to dwell in all their coasts, and divide their land by lot.\n37 So the king took the half of the army that remained, and went forth from Antioch the chief city of his kingdom, in the hundred and forty-seventh year: and he passed over the river Euphrates, and went through the higher countries.\n38 Then Lysias chose Ptolemee the son of Dorymenus, and Nicanor, and Gorgias, mighty men of the king's friends.\n39 And he sent with them forty thousand men, and seven thousand horsemen: to go into the land of Juda, and to destroy it according to the king's orders.\n40 So they went forth with all their power, and came, and pitched near Emmaus in the plain country.\n41 And the merchants of the countries heard the fame of them: and they took silver and gold in abundance, and servants: and they came into the camp, to buy the children of Israel for slaves: and there were joined to them the forces of Syria, and of the land of the strangers.\n42 And Judas and his brethren saw that evils were multiplied, and that the armies approached to their borders: and they knew the orders the king had given to destroy the people and utterly abolish them.\n43 And they said every man to his neighbour: Let us raise up the low condition of our people, and let us fight for our people, and our sanctuary.\n44 And the assembly was gathered that they might be ready for battle: and that they might pray, and ask mercy and compassion.\n45 Now Jerusalem was not inhabited, but was like a desert: there was none of her children that went in or out: and the sanctuary was trodden down: and the children of strangers were in the castle, there was the habitation of the Gentiles: and joy was taken away from Jacob, and the pipe and harp ceased there.\n46 And they assembled together, and came to Maspha over against Jerusalem: for in Maspha was a place of prayer heretofore in Israel.\n47 And they fasted that day, and put on haircloth, and put ashes upon their heads: and they rent their garments:\n48 And they laid open the books of the law, in which the Gentiles searched for the likeness of their idols:\n49 And they brought the priestly ornaments, and the firstfruits and tithes, and stirred up the Nazarites that had fulfilled their days:\n50 And they cried with a loud voice toward heaven, saying: What shall we do with these, and whither shall we carry them?\n51 For thy holies are trodden down, and are profaned, and thy priests are in mourning, and are brought low.\n52 And behold the nations are come together against us to destroy us: thou knowest what they intend against us.\n53 How shall we be able to stand before their face, unless thou, O God, help us?\n54 Then they sounded with trumpets, and cried out with a loud voice.\n55 And after this Judas appointed captains over the people, over thousands, and over hundreds, and over fifties, and over tens.\n56 And he said to them that were building houses, or had betrothed wives, or were planting vineyards, or were fearful, that they should return every man to his house, according to the law.\n57 So they removed the camp, and pitched on the south side of Emmaus.\n58 And Judas said: Gird yourselves, and be valiant men, and be ready against the morning, that you may fight with these nations that are assembled against us to destroy us and our sanctuary.\n59 For it is better for us to die in battle, than to see the evils of our nation, and of the holies:\n60 Nevertheless as it shall be the will of God in heaven so be it done.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the bible does it say \"Moreover also ten tables: and he set them in the temple, five on the right

And thou shalt open the door and flee, and shalt not stay there.\n4 So the young man, the servant of the prophet, went awry to Ramoth Galaad,\n5 And went in thither: and behold the captains of the army were sitting: and he said: I have a word to thee, O prince. And Jehu said: Unto whom of us all? And he said: To thee, O prince.\n6 And he arose, and went into the chamber: and he poured the oil upon his head, and said: Thus saith the Lord God of Israel: I have anointed thee king over Israel, the people of the Lord.\n7 And thou shalt cut off the house of Achab thy master, and I will revenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord at the hand of Jezabel.\n8 And I will destroy all the house of Achab, and I will cut off from Achab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up, and the meanest in Israel.\n9 And I will make the house of Achab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and like the house of Baasa the son of Ahias.\n10 And the dogs shall eat Jezabel in the field of Jezrahel, and there shall be no one to bury her. And he opened the door and fled.\n11 Then Jehu went forth to the servants of his lord: and they said to him: Are all things well? why came this mad man to thee? And he said to them: You know the man, and what he said.\n12 But they answered: It is false, but rather do thou tell us. And he said to them: Thus and thus did he speak to me: and he said: Thus saith the Lord: I have anointed thee king over Israel.\n13 Then they made haste and taking every man his garment laid it under his feet, after the manner of a judgment seat, and they sounded the trumpet, and said: Jehu is king.\n14 So Jehu the son of Josaphat the son of Namsi conspired against Joram. Now Joram had besieged Ramoth Galaad, he and all Israel fighting with Hazael king of Syria:\n15 And was returned to be healed in Jezrahel of his wounds, for the Syrians had wounded him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Jehu said: If it please you, let no man go forth or flee out of the city, lest he go, and tell in Jezrahel.\n16 And he got up, and went into Jezrahel: for Joram was sick there, and Ochozias king of Juda was come down to visit Joram.\n17 The watchmen therefore, that stood upon the tower of Jezrahel, saw the troop of Jehu coming, and said: I see a troop. And Joram said: Take a chariot, and send to meet them, and let him that goeth say: Is all well?\n18 So there went one in a chariot to meet him, and said: Thus saith the king: Are all things peaceable? And Jehu said: What hast thou to do with peace? go behind and follow me. And the watchman told, saying: The messenger came to them, but he returneth not.\n19 And he sent a second chariot of horses: and he came to them, and said: Thus saith the king: Is there peace? And Jehu said: What hast thou to do with peace? pass, and follow me.\n20 And the watchman told, saying: He came even to them, but returneth not: and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Namsi, for he drives furiously.\n21 And Joram said: Make ready the chariot. And they made ready his chariot, and Joram king of Israel, and Ochozias king of Juda went out, each in his chariot, and they went out to meet Jehu, and met him in the field of Naboth the Jezrahelite.\n22 And when Joram saw Jehu, he said: Is there peace, Jehu? And he answered: What peace? so long as the fornications of Jezabel thy mother, and her many sorceries are in their vigour.\n23 And Joram turned his hand, and fleeing, said to Ochozias: There is treachery, Ochozias.\n24 But Jehu bent Iris bow with his hand, and shot Joram between the shoulders: and the arrow went out through his heart, and immediately he fell in his chariot.\n25 And Jehu said to Badacer his captain: Take him, and cast him into the field of Naboth the Jezrahelite: for I remember when I and thou sitting in a chariot followed Achab this man's father, that the Lord laid this burden upon him, saying:\n26 If I do not requite thee in this field, saith the Lord, for the blood of Naboth, and for the blood of his children, which I saw yesterday, saith the Lord. So now take him, and cast him into the field, according to the word of the Lord.\n27 But Ochozias king of Juda seeing this, fled by the way of the garden house: and Jehu pursued him, and said: Strike him also in his chariot. And they struck him in the going up to Gaver, which is by Jeblaam: and he fled into Mageddo, and died there.\n28 And his servants laid him upon his chariot, and carried him to Jerusalem: and they buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David.\n29 In the eleventh year of Joram the son of Achab, Ochozias reigned over Juda,\n30 And Jehu came into Jezrahel. But Jezabel hearing of his coming in, painted her face with stibic stone, and adorned her head, and looked out of a window\n31 At Jehu coming in at the gate, and said: Can there be peace for Zambri, that hath killed his master?\n32 And Jehu lifted up his face to the window, and said: Who is this? And two or three eunuchs bowed down to him.\n33 And he said to them: Throw her down headlong: and they threw her down, and the wall was sprinkled with her blood, and the hoofs of the horses trod upon her.\n34 And when he was come in, to eat, and to drink, he said: Go, and see after that cursed woman, and bury her: because she is a king's daughter.\n35 And when they went to bury her, they found nothing but the skull, and the feet, and the extremities of her hands.\n36 And coming back they told him. And Jehu said: It is the word of the Lord, which he spoke by his servant Elias the Thesbite, saying: In the field of Jezrahel the dogs shall eat the flesh of Jezabel,\n37 And the flesh of Jezabel shall be as dung upon the face of the earth in the field of Jezrahel, so that they who pass by shall say: Is this that same Jezabel?\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Scripture from 2 Samuel 7:21?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "2 Samuel 7:21 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"For thy word's sake, and according to thy own heart thou hast done all these great things, so that thou wouldst make it known to thy servant.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"He said to them: Be ready against the third day, and come not near your wives.\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from Exodus, chapter 19.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\nExodus Chapter 19\n1 In the third month of the departure of Israel out of the land of Egypt, on this day they came into the wilderness of Sinai:\n2 For departing out of Raphidim, and coming to the desert of Sinai, they camped in the same place, and there Israel pitched their tents over against the mountain.\n3 And Moses went up to God: and the Lord called unto him from the mountain, and said: Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:\n4 You have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, how I have carried you upon the wings of eagles, and have taken you to myself.\n5 If therefore you will hear my voice, and keep my covenant, you shall be my peculiar possession above all people: for all the earth is mine.\n6 And you shall be to me a priestly kingdom, and a holy nation.

Then Pilate commanded that the body should be delivered.\n59 And Joseph taking the body, wrapped it up in a clean linen cloth.\n60 And laid it in his own new monument, which he had hewed out in a rock. And he rolled a great stone to the door of the monument, and went his way.\n61 And there was there Mary Magdalen, and the other Mary sitting over against the sepulchre.\n62 And the next day, which followed the day of preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees came together to Pilate,\n63 Saying: Sir, we have remembered, that that seducer said, while he was yet alive: After three days I will rise again.\n64 Command therefore the sepulchre to be guarded until the third day: lest perhaps his disciples come and steal him away, and say to the people: He is risen from the dead; and the last error shall be worse than the first.\n65 Pilate saith to them: You have a guard; go, guard it as you know.\n66 And they departing, made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting guards.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"I am become a stranger to my brethren, and an alien to the sons of my mother.\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book Psalm, chapter 68.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\nPsalm Chapter 68\n1 Unto the end, for them that shall be changed; for David.\n2 SAVE me, O God: for the waters are come in even unto my soul.\n3 I stick fast in the mire of the deep: and there is no sure standing.

seven days in Thersa: now the army was besieging Gebbethon a city of the Philistines.\n16 And when they heard that Zambri had rebelled, and slain the king, all Israel made Amri their king, who was general over Israel in the camp that day.\n17 And Amri went up, and all Israel with him from Gebbethon, and they besieged Thersa.\n18 And Zambri seeing that the city was about to be taken, went into the palace and burnt himself with the king's house: and he died\n19 In his sins, which he had sinned, doing evil before the Lord, and walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin, wherewith he made Israel to sin.\n20 But the rest of the acts of Zambri, and of his conspiracy and tyranny, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?\n21 Then were the people of Israel divided into two parts: one half of the people followed Thebni the son of Gineth, to make him king: and one half followed Amri.\n22 But the people that were with Amri, prevailed over the people that followed Thebni the son of Gineth: and Thebni died, and Amri reigned.\n23 In the one and thirtieth year of Asa king of Juda, Amri reigned over Israel twelve years: in Thersa he reigned six years.\n24 And he bought the hill of Samaria of Semer for two talents of silver: and he built upon it, and he called the city which he built Samaria, after the name of Semer the owner of the hill.\n25 And Amri did evil in the sight of the Lord, and acted wickedly above all that were before him.\n26 And he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and in his sins wherewith he made Israel to sin: to provoke the Lord the God of Israel to anger with their vanities.\n27 Now the rest of the acts of Amri, and the battles he fought, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?\n28 And Amri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria, and Achab his son reigned in his stead.\n29 Now Achab the son of Amri reigned over Israel in the eight and thirtieth year of Asa king of Juda. And Achab the son of Amri reigned over Israel in Samaria two and twenty years.\n30 And Achab the son of Amri did evil in the sight of the Lord above all that were before him.\n31 Nor was it enough for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat: but he also took to wife Jezabel daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians. And he went, and served Baal, and adored him.\n32 And he set up an altar for Baal in the temple of Baal, which he had built in Samaria,\n33 And he planted a grove: and Achab did more to provoke the Lord the God of Israel, than all the kings of Israel that were before him.\n34 In his days Hiel of Bethel built Jericho: in Abiram his firstborn he laid its foundations: and in his youngest son Segub he set up the gates thereof: according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke in the hand of Josue the son of Nun.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"Therefore, let us not sleep, as others do; but let us watch, and be sober.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Your verse is located in 1 Thessalonians, chapter 5.\n\nTake a look at the whole chapter:\n1 Thessalonians Chapter 5\n1 But of the times and moments, brethren, you need not, that we should write to you;\n2 For yourselves know perfectly, that the day of the Lord shall so come, as a thief in the night.\n3 For when they shall say, peace and security; then shall sudden destruction come upon them, as the pains upon her that is with child, and they shall not escape.\n4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.\n5 For all you are the children of light, and children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.\n6 Therefore, let us not sleep, as others do; but let us watch, and be sober.\n7 For they that sleep, sleep in the night; and they that are drunk, are drunk in the night.\n8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, having on the breastplate of faith and charity, and for a helmet the hope of salvation.\n9 For God hath not appointed us unto wrath, but unto the purchasing of salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,\n10 Who died for us; that, whether we watch or sleep, we may live together with him.\n11 For which cause comfort one another; and edify one another, as you also do.\n12 And we beseech you, brethren, to know them who labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you:\n13 That you esteem them more abundantly in charity, for their work's sake.

So it became a vine, and grew into branches, and shot forth sprigs.\n7 And there was another large eagle, with great wings, and many feathers: and behold this vine, bending as it were her roots towards him, stretched forth her branches to him, that he might water it by the furrows of her plantation.\n8 It was planted in a good ground upon many waters, that it might bring forth branches, and bear fruit, that it might become a large vine.\n9 Say thou: Thus saith the Lord God: Shall it prosper then? shall he not pull up the roots thereof, and strip off its fruit, and dry up all the branches it hath shot forth, and make it wither: and this without a strong arm, or many people, to pluck it up by the root?\n10 Behold, it is planted: shall it prosper then? shall it not be dried up when the burning wind shall touch it, and shall it not wither in the furrows where it grew?\n11 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:\n12 Say to the provoking house: Know you not what these things mean?

So Pharao awoke.\n5 He slept again, and dreamed another dream: Seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk full and fair:\n6 Then seven other ears sprung up thin and blasted,\n7 And devoured all the beauty of the former. 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.

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": "What chapter and book is the verse \"And he lifted up his voice with weeping, which the Egyptians and all the house of Pharao heard.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from Genesis, chapter 45.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\nGenesis Chapter 45\n1 Joseph could no longer refrain himself before many that stood by: whereupon he commanded that all should go out, and no stranger be present at their knowing one another.\n2 And he lifted up his voice with weeping, which the Egyptians and all the house of Pharao heard.\n3 And he said to his brethren: I am Joseph: is my father yet living?

And the young men coming in, found her dead: and carried her out, and buried her by her husband.\n11 And there came great fear upon the whole church, and upon all that heard these things.\n12 And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people. And they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.\n13 But of the rest no man durst join himself unto them; but the people magnified them.\n14 And the multitude of men and women who believed in the Lord, was more increased:\n15 Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that when Peter came, his shadow at the least, might overshadow any of them, and they might be delivered from their infirmities.\n16 And there came also together to Jerusalem a multitude out of the neighbouring cities, bringing sick persons, and such as were troubled with unclean spirits; who were all healed.\n17 Then the high priest rising up, and all they that were with him, (which is the heresy of the Sadducees,) were filled with envy.\n18 And they laid hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.\n19 But an angel of the Lord by night opening the doors of the prison, and leading them out, said:\n20 Go, and standing speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.\n21 Who having heard this, early in the morning, entered into the temple, and taught. And the high priest coming, and they that were with him, called together the council, and all the ancients of the children of Israel; and they sent to the prison to have them brought.\n22 But when the ministers came, and opening the prison, found them not there, they returned and told,\n23 Saying: The prison indeed we found shut with all diligence, and the keepers standing before the doors; but opening it, we found no man within.\n24 Now when the officer of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were in doubt concerning them, what would come to pass.\n25 But one came and told them: Behold, the men whom you put in prison are in the temple standing, and teaching the people.\n26 Then went the officer with the ministers, and brought them without violence; for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned.\n27 And when they had brought them, they set them before the council. And the high priest asked them,\n28 Saying: Commanding we commanded you, that you should not teach in this name; and behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and you have a mind to bring the blood of this man upon us.\n29 But Peter and the apostles answering, said: We ought to obey God, rather than men.\n30 The God of our fathers hath raised up Jesus, whom you put to death, hanging him upon a tree.\n31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand, to be Prince and Saviour, to give repentance to Israel, and remission of sins.\n32 And we are witnesses of these things and the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to all that obey him.\n33 When they had heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they thought to put them to death.\n34 But one in the council rising up, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, respected by all the people, commanded the men to be put forth a little while.\n35 And he said to them: Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you intend to do, as touching these men.\n36 For before these days rose up Theodas, affirming himself to be somebody, to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all that believed him were scattered, and brought to nothing.\n37 After this man, rose up Judas of Galilee, in the days of the enrolling, and drew away the people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as consented to him, were dispersed.\n38 And now, therefore, I say to you, refrain from these men, and let them alone; for if this council or this work be of men, it will come to nought;\n39 But if it be of God, you cannot overthrow it, lest perhaps you be found even to fight against God. And they consented to him.\n40 And calling in the apostles, after they had scourged them, they charged them that they should not speak at all in the name of Jesus; and they dismissed them.\n41 And they indeed went from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were accounted worthy to suffer reproach for the name of Jesus.\n42 And every day they ceased not in the temple, and from house to house, to teach and preach Christ Jesus.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where exactly in the Bible is \"The men of Dedan were thy merchants: many islands were the traffic of thy hand, they exchanged for thy price teeth of ivory and ebony.\" written?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of Ezekiel, chapter 27, verse 15 of the Old Testament, you'll find \"The men of Dedan were thy merchants: many islands were the traffic of thy hand, they exchanged for thy price teeth of ivory and ebony.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Scripture from Genesis 11:26?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Genesis 11:26 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And Thare lived seventy years, and begot Abram, and Nachor, and Aran.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"For if Jesus had given them rest, he would never have afterwards spoken of another day.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture \"For if Jesus had given them rest, he would never have afterwards spoken of another day.\" is located in Hebrews 4:8 of the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the scriptural address for \"And Jephte the Galaadite judged Israel six years: and he died, and was buried in his city of Galaad.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"And Jephte the Galaadite judged Israel six years: and he died, and was buried in his city of Galaad.\" is written in Judges 12:7, within the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Verse 14 from chapter 18 in Leviticus?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From the Old Testament, in Leviticus 18:14 (Douay Rheims), we read:\n\"Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's brother: neither shalt thou approach to his wife, who is joined to thee by affinity.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"They say to him: Because no man hath hired us.

He saith to them: Go you also into my vineyard.\n8 And when evening was come, the lord of the vineyard saith to his steward: Call the labourers and pay them their hire, beginning from the last even to the first.\n9 When therefore they were come, that came about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.\n10 But when the first also came, they thought that they should receive more: and they also received every man a penny.\n11 And receiving it they murmured against the master of the house,\n12 Saying: These last have worked but one hour, and thou hast made them equal to us, that have borne the burden of the day and the heats.\n13 But he answering said to one of them: Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst thou not agree with me for a penny?\n14 Take what is thine, and go thy way: I will also give to this last even as to thee.\n15 Or, is it not lawful for me to do what I will? is thy eye evil, because I am good?\n16 So shall the last be first, and the first last.

She saith to him: Say that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left, in thy kingdom.\n22 And Jesus answering, said: You know not what you ask. Can you drink the chalice that I shall drink?

5.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\n1 Maccabees Chapter 5\n1 Now it came to pass, when the nations round about heard that the altar and the sanctuary were built up as before, that they were exceeding angry.\n2 And they thought to destroy the generation of Jacob that were among them, and they began to kill some of the people, and to persecute them.\n3 Then Judas fought against the children of Esau in Idumea, and them that were in Acrabathane: because they beset the Israelites around about, and he made a great slaughter of them.\n4 And he remembered the malice of the children of Bean: who were a snare and a stumblingblock to the people, by lying in wait for them in the way.\n5 And they were shut up by him in towers, and he set upon them, and devoted them to utter destruction, and burnt their towers with fire, and all that were in them.\n6 Then he passed over to the children of Ammon, where he found a mighty power, and much people, and Timotheus was their captain:\n7 And he fought many battles with them, and they were discomfited in their sight, and he smote them:\n8 And he took the city of Gazer and her towns, and returned into Judea.\n9 And the Gentiles that were in Galaad, assembled themselves together against the Israelites that were in their quarters to destroy them: and they fled into the fortress of Datheman.\n10 And they sent letters to Judas and his brethren, saying, The heathens that are round about are gathered together against us, to destroy us:\n11 And they are preparing to come, and to take the fortress into which we are fled: and Timotheus is the captain of their host.\n12 Now therefore come, and deliver us out of their hands, for many of us are slain.\n13 And all our brethren that were in the places of Tubin, are killed: and they have carried away their wives, and their children, captives, and taken their spoils, and they have slain there almost a thousand men.\n14 And while they were yet reading these letters, behold there came other messengers out of Galilee with their garments rent, who related according to these words:\n15 Saying, that they of Ptolemais, and of Tyre, and of Sidon, were assembled against them, and all Galilee is filled with strangers, in order to consume us.\n16 Now when Judas and all the people heard these words, a great assembly met together to consider what they should do for their brethren that were in trouble, and were assaulted by them.\n17 And Judas said to Simon his brother: Choose thee men, and go, and deliver thy brethren in Galilee: and I, and my brother Jonathan will go into the country of Galaad.\n18 And he left Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias captains of the people with the remnant of the army in Judea to keep it:\n19 And he commanded them, saying: Take ye the charge of this people: but make no war against the heathens, till we return.\n20 Now three thousand men were allotted to Simon, to go into Galilee: and eight thousand to Judas to go into the land of Galaad.\n21 And Simon went into Galilee, and fought many battles with the heathens: and the heathens were discomfited before his face, and he pursued them even to the gate of Ptolemais.\n22 And there fell of the heathens almost three thousand men, and he took the spoils of them,\n23 And he took with him those that were in Galilee and in Arbatis with their wives, and children, and all that they had, and he brought them into Judea with great joy.\n24 And Judas Machabeus, and Jonathan his brother passed over the Jordan, and went three days' journey through the desert.\n25 And the Nabutheans met them, and received them in a peaceable manner, and told them all that happened to their brethren in the land of Galaad,\n26 And that many of them were shut up in Barasa, and in Bosor, and in Alima, and in Casphor, and in Mageth, and in Carnaim: all these strong and great cities.\n27 Yea, and that they were kept shut up in the rest of the cities of Galaad, and that they had appointed to bring their army on the morrow near to these cities, and to take them and to destroy them all in one day.\n28 Then Judas and his army suddenly turned their march into the desert, to Bosor, and took the city: and he slew every male by the edge of the sword, and took all their spoils, and burnt it with fire.\n29 And they removed from thence by night, and went till they came to the fortress.\n30 And it came to pass that early in the morning, when they lifted up their eyes, behold there were people without number, carrying ladders and engines to take the fortress, and assault them.\n31 And Judas saw that the fight was begun, and the cry of the battle went up to heaven like a trumpet, and a great cry out of the city:\n32 And he said to his host: Fight ye to day for your brethren.\n33 And he came with three companies behind them, and they sounded their trumpets, and cried out in prayer.\n34 And the host of Timotheus understood that it was Machabeus, and they fled away before his face: and they made a great slaughter of them: and there fell of them in that day almost eight thousand men.\n35 And Judas turned aside to Maspha, and assaulted, and took it, and he slew every male thereof, and took the spoils thereof, and burnt it with fire.\n36 From thence he marched, and took Casbon, and Mageth, and Bosor, and the rest of the cities of Galaad.\n37 But after this Timotheus gathered another army, and camped over against Raphon beyond the torrent.\n38 And Judas sent men to view the army: and they brought him word, saying: All the nations, that are round about us, are assembled unto him an army exceeding great:\n39 And they have hired the Arabians to help them, and they have pitched their tents beyond the torrent, ready to come to fight against thee. And Judas went to meet them.\n40 And Timotheus said to the captains of his army: When Judas and his army come near the torrent of water, if he pass over unto us first, we shall not be able to withstand him: for he will certainly prevail over us.\n41 But if he be afraid to pass over, and camp on the other side of the river, we will pass over to them and shall prevail against him.\n42 Now when Judas came near the torrent of water, he set the scribes of the people by the torrent, and commanded them, saying: Suffer no man to stay behind: but let all come to the battle.\n43 And he passed over to them first, and all the people after him, and all the heathens were discomfited before them, and they threw away their weapons, and fled to the temple that was in Carnaim.\n44 And he took that city, and the temple he burnt with fire, with all things that were therein: and Carnaim was subdued, and could not stand against the face of Judas.\n45 And Judas gathered together all the Israelites that were in the land of Galaad, from the least even to the greatest, and their wives, and children, and an army exceeding great, to come into the land of Juda.\n46 And they came as far as Ephron: now this was a great city situate in the way, strongly fortified, and there was no means to turn from it on the right hand or on the left, but the way was through the midst of it.\n47 And they that were in the city, shut themselves in, and stopped up the gates with stones: and Judas sent to them with peaceable words,\n48 Saying: Let us pass through your land, to go into our country: and no man shall hurt you: we will only pass through on foot. But they would not open to them.\n49 Then Judas commanded proclamation to be made in the camp, that they should make an assault every man in the place where he was.\n50 And the men of the army drew near, and he assaulted that city all the day, and all the night, and the city was delivered into his hands:\n51 And they slew every male with the edge of the sword, and he razed the city, and took the spoils thereof, and passed through all the city over them that were slain.\n52 Then they passed over the Jordan to the great plain that is over against Bethsan.\n53 And Judas gathered together the hindmost, and he exhorted the people all the way through, till they came into the land of Juda.\n54 And they went up to mount Sion with joy and gladness, and offered holocausts, because not one of them was slain, till they had returned in peace.\n55 Now in the days that Judas and Jonathan were in the land of Galaad, and Simon his brother in Galilee before Ptolemais,\n56 Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias captain of the soldiers, heard of the good success, and the battles that were fought.\n57 And he said: Let us also get us a name, and let us go fight against the Gentiles that are round about us.\n58 And he gave charge to them that were in his army, and they went towards Jamnia.\n59 And Gorgias and his men went out of the city, to give them battle.\n60 And Joseph and Azarias were put to flight, and were pursued unto the borders of Judea: and there fell, on that day, of the people of Israel about two thousand men, and there was a great overthrow of the people:\n61 Because they did not hearken to Judas, and his brethren, thinking that they should do manfully.\n62 But they were not of the seed of those men by whom salvation was brought to Israel.\n63 And the men of Juda were magnified exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and of all the nations where their name was heard.\n64 And people assembled to them with joyful acclamations.\n65 Then Judas and his brethren went forth and attacked the children of Esau, in the land toward the south, and he took Chebron, and her towns: and he burnt the walls thereof and the towers all round it.\n66 And he removed his camp to go into the land of the aliens, and he went through Samaria.\n67 In that day some priests fell in battle, while desiring to do manfully they went out unadvisedly to fight.\n68 And Judas turned to Azotus into the land of the strangers, and he threw down their altars, and he burnt the statues of their gods with fire: and he took the spoils of the cities, and returned into the land of Juda.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"Now in the hundred and sixtieth year Alexander the son of Antiochus, surnamed the Illustrious, came up and

Maccabees Chapter 10\n1 Now in the hundred and sixtieth year Alexander the son 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.\n34 And I will that all the feasts, and the sabbaths, and the new moons, and the days appointed, and three days before the solemn day, and three days after the solemn day, be all days of immunity and freedom, for all the Jews that are in my kingdom:\n35 And no man shall have power to do any thing against them, or to molest any of them, in any cause.\n36 And let there be enrolled in the king's army to the number of thirty thousand of the Jews: and allowance shall be made them as is due to all the king's forces, and certain of them shall be appointed to be in the fortresses of the great king:\n37 And some of them shall be set over the affairs of the kingdom, that are of trust, and let the governors be taken from among themselves, and let them walk in their own laws, as the king hath commanded in the land of Juda.\n38 And the three cities that are added to Judea, out of the country of Samaria, let them be accounted with Judea: that they may be under one, and obey no other authority but that of the high priest:\n39 Ptolemais, and the confines thereof, I give as a free gift to the holy places, that are in Jerusalem, for the necessary charges of the holy things.\n40 And I give every year fifteen thousand sicles of silver out of the king's accounts, of what belongs to me:\n41 And all that is above, which they that were over the affairs the years before, had not paid, from this time they shall give it to the works of the house.\n42 Moreover the five thousand sicles of silver which they received from the account of the holy places, every year, shall also belong to the priests that execute the ministry.\n43 And whosoever shall flee into the temple that is in Jerusalem, and in all the borders thereof, being indebted to the king for any matter, let them be set at liberty, and all that they have in my kingdom, let them have it free.\n44 For the building also, or repairing the works of the holy places, the charges shall be given out of the king's revenues:\n45 For the building also of the walls of Jerusalem, and the fortifying thereof round about, the charges shall be given out of the king's account, as also for the building of the walls in Judea.\n46 Now when Jonathan, and the people heard these words, they gave no credit to them nor received them: because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel, for he had afflicted them exceedingly.\n47 And their inclinations were towards Alexander, because he had been the chief promoter of peace in their regard, and him they always helped.\n48 And king Alexander gathered together a great army, and moved his camp near to Demetrius.\n49 And the two kings joined battle, and the army of Demetrius fled away, and Alexander pursued after him, and pressed them close.\n50 And the battle was hard fought till the sun went down: and Demetrius was slain that day.\n51 And Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemee king of Egypt, with words to this effect, saying:\n52 Forasmuch as I am returned into my kingdom, and am set in the throne of my ancestors and have gotten the dominion, and have overthrown Demetrius, and possessed our country,\n53 And have joined battle with him, and both he and his army have been destroyed by us, and we are placed in the throne of his kingdom:\n54 Now therefore let us make friendship one with another: and give me now thy daughter to wife, and I will be thy son in law, and I will give both thee and her gifts worthy of thee.\n55 And king Ptolemee answered, saying: Happy is the day wherein thou didst return to the land of thy fathers, and sattest in the throne of their kingdom.\n56 And now I will do to thee as thou hast written: but meet me at Ptolemais, that we may see one another, and I may give her to thee as thou hast said.\n57 So Ptolemee went out of Egypt, with Cleopatra his daughter, and he came to Ptolemais in the hundred and sixty-second year.\n58 And king Alexander met him, and he gave him his daughter Cleopatra: and he celebrated her marriage at Ptolemais, with great glory, after the manner of kings.\n59 And king Alexander wrote to Jonathan, that he should come and meet him.\n60 And he went honourably to Ptolemais, and he met there the two kings, and he gave them much silver, and gold, and presents: and he found favour in their sight.\n61 And some pestilent men of Israel, men of a wicked life, assembled themselves against him to accuse him: and the king gave no heed to them.\n62 And he commanded that Jonathan's garments should be taken off, and that he should be clothed with purple: and they did so. And the king made him sit by himself.\n63 And he said to his princes: Go out with him into the midst of the city, and make proclamation, that no man complain against him of any matter, and that no man trouble him for any manner of cause.\n64 So when his accusers saw his glory proclaimed, and him clothed with purple, they all fled away.\n65 And the king magnified him, and enrolled him amongst his chief friends, and made him governor and partaker of his dominion.\n66 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with peace and joy.\n67 In the year one hundred and sixty-five Demetrius the son of Demetrius came from Crete into the land of his fathers.\n68 And king Alexander heard of it, and was much troubled, and returned to Antioch.\n69 And king Demetrius made Apollonius his general, who was governor of Celesyria: and he gathered together a great army, and came to Jamnia: and he sent to Jonathan the high priest,\n70 Saying: Thou alone standest against us, and I am laughed at, and reproached, because thou shewest thy power against us in the mountains.\n71 Now therefore if thou trustest in thy forces, come down to us into the plain, and there let us try one another: for with me is the strength of war.\n72 Ask, and learn who I am, and the rest that help me, who also say that your foot cannot stand before our face, for thy fathers have twice been put to flight in their own land:\n73 And now how wilt thou be able to abide the horsemen, and so great an army in the plain, where there is no stone, nor rock, nor place to flee to?\n74 Now when Jonathan heard the words of Apollonius, he was moved in his mind: and he chose ten thousand men, and went out of Jerusalem, and Simon his brother met him to help him.\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 I answered: Here I am.\n12 And he said: Lift up thy eyes, and see that all the males leaping upon the females, are of divers colours, spotted, and speckled. For I have seen all that Laban hath done to thee.\n13 I am the God of Bethel, where thou didst anoint the stone, and make a vow to me. Now therefore arise, and go out of this land, and return into thy native country.\n14 And Rachel and Lia answered: Have we any thing left among the goods and inheritance of our father's house?\n15 Hath he not counted us as strangers and sold us, and eaten up the price of us?\n16 But God hath taken our father's riches, and delivered them to us, and to our children: wherefore do all that God hath commanded thee.\n17 Then Jacob rose up, and having set his children and wives upon camels, went his way.\n18 And he took all his substance, and flocks, and whatsoever he had gotten in Mesopotamia, and went forward to Isaac his father to the land of Chanaan.\n19 At that time Laban was gone to shear his sheep, and Rachel stole away her father's idols.\n20 And Jacob would not confess to his father in law that he was flying away.\n21 And when he was gone, together with all that belonged to him, and having passed the river, was going on towards mount Galaad,\n22 It was told Laban on the third day that Jacob fled.\n23 And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days; and overtook him in the mount of Galaad.\n24 And he saw in a dream God saying to him: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob.\n25 Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mountain: and when he with his brethren had overtaken him, he pitched his tent in the same mount of Galaad.\n26 And he said to Jacob: Why hast thou done thus, to carry away, without my knowledge, my daughters, as captives taken with the sword.\n27 Why wouldst thou run away privately and not acquaint me, that I might have brought thee on the way with joy, and with songs, and with timbrels, and with harps?\n28 Thou hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and daughters: thou hast done foolishly: and now, indeed,\n29 It is in my power to return thee evil: but the God of your father said to me yesterday: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob.\n30 Suppose thou didst desire to go to thy friends, and hadst a longing after thy father's house: why hast thou stolen away my gods?\n31 Jacob answered: That I departed unknown to thee, it was for fear lest thou wouldst take away thy daughters by force.\n32 But whereas thou chargest me with theft: with whomsoever thou shalt find thy gods, let him be slain before our brethren. Search, and if thou find any of thy things with me, take them away.

And when he was entered into Rachel's tent,\n34 She in haste hid the idols under the camel's furniture, and sat upon them: and when he had searched all the tent, and found nothing,\n35 She said: Let not my lord be angry that I cannot rise up before thee, because it has now happened to me, according to the custom of women, So his careful search was in vain.\n36 And Jacob being angry, said in a chiding manner: For what fault of mine, and for what offence on my part hast thou so hotly pursued me,\n37 And searched all my household stuff?

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. And when he was come into the house of his god, his sons that came out of his bowels, slew him with the sword.\n22 And the Lord saved Ezechias and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of the hand of Sennacherib king of the Assyrians, and out of the hand of all, and gave them treasures on every side.\n23 Many also brought victims, and sacrifices to the Lord to Jerusalem, and presents to Ezechias king of Juda: and he was magnified thenceforth in the sight of all nations.\n24 In those days Ezechias was sick even to death, and he prayed to the Lord: and he heard him, and gave him a sign.\n25 But he did not render again according to the benefits which he had received, for his heart was lifted up: and wrath was enkindled against him, and against Juda and Jerusalem.\n26 And he humbled himself afterwards, because his heart had been lifted up, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and therefore the wrath of the Lord came not upon them in the days of Ezechias.\n27 And Ezechias was rich, and very glorious, and he gathered himself great treasures of silver and of gold, and of precious stones, of spices, and of arms, of all kinds, and of vessels of great price.\n28 Storehouses also of corn, of wine, and of oil, and stalls for all beasts, and folds for cattle.\n29 And he built himself cities: for he had flocks of sheep, and herds without number, for the Lord had given him very much substance.\n30 This same Ezechias was, he that stopped the upper source of the waters of Gihon, and turned them away underneath toward the west of the city of David: in ail his works he did prosperously what he would.\n31 But yet in the embassy of the princes of Babylon, that were sent to him, to inquire of the wonder that had happened upon the earth, God left him that he might be tempted, and all things might be made known that were in his heart.\n32 Now the rest of the acts of Ezechias, and of his mercies are written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.\n33 And Ezechias slept with his fathers, and they buried him above the sepulchres of the sons of David: and all Juda, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem celebrated his funeral: and Manasses his son reigned in his stead.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"For we suffer thus for our sins.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in 2 Maccabees, chapter 7.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\n2 Maccabees Chapter 7\n1 It came to pass also, that seven brethren, together with their mother, were apprehended, and compelled by the king to eat swine's flesh against the law, for which end they were tormented with whips and scourges.\n2 But one of them, who was the eldest, said thus: What wouldst thou ask, or learn of us? we are ready to die rather than to transgress the laws of God, received from our fathers.\n3 Then the king being angry commanded fryingpans, and brazen caldrons to be made hot: which forthwith being heated,\n4 He commanded to cut out the tongue of him that had spoken first: and the skin of his head being drawn off, to chop off also the extremities of his hands and feet, the rest of his brethren, and his mother, looking on.\n5 And when he was now maimed in all parts, he commanded him, being yet alive, to be brought to the fire, and to be fried in the fryingpan: and while he was suffering therein long torments, the rest, together with the mother, exhorted one another to die manfully,\n6 Saying: The Lord God will look upon the truth, and will take pleasure in us, as Moses declared in the profession of the canticle: And In his servants he will take pleasure.\n7 So when the first was dead after this manner, they brought the next to make him a, mocking stock: and when they had pulled off the skin of his head with the hair, they asked him if he would eat, before he were punished throughout the whole body in every limb.\n8 But he answered in his own language, and said: I will not do it. 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:\n29 So thou shalt not fear this tormentor, but being made a worthy partner with thy brethren, receive death, that in that mercy I may receive thee again with thy brethren.\n30 While she was yet speaking these words, the young man said: For whom do you stay? I will not obey the commandment of the king, but the commandment of the law, which was given us by Moses.\n31 But thou that hast been the author of all mischief against the Hebrews, shalt not escape the hand of God.\n32 For we suffer thus for our sins.\n33 And though the Lord our God is angry with us a little while for our chastisement and correction: yet he will be reconciled again to his servants.\n34 But thou, O wicked and of all men most flagitious, be not lifted up without cause with vain hopes, whilst thou art raging against his servants.\n35 For thou hast not yet escaped the judgment of the almighty God, who beholdeth all things.\n36 For my brethren, having now undergone a short pain, are under the covenant of eternal life: but thou by the judgment of God shalt receive just punishment for thy pride.\n37 But I, like my brethren, offer up my life and my body for the laws of our fathers: calling upon God to be speedily merciful to our nation, and that thou by torments and stripes mayst confess that he alone is God.\n38 But in me and in my brethren the wrath of the Almighty, which hath justly been brought upon all our nation, shall cease.\n39 Then the king being incensed with anger, raged against him more cruelly than all the rest, taking it grievously that he was mocked.\n40 So this man also died undefiled, wholly trusting in the Lord.\n41 And last of all after the sons the mother also was consumed.\n42 But now there is enough said of the sacrifices, and of the excessive cruelties.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"And finding no cause of death in him, they desired of Pilate, that they might kill him.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the New Testament, the book of Acts, chapter 13, verse 28 states: \"And finding no cause of death in him, they desired of Pilate, that they might kill him.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Quote from Ecclesiastes chapter 4, verse 13", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Ecclesiastes 4:13, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"Better is a child that is poor and wise, than a king that is old and foolish, who knoweth not to foresee for hereafter.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, and said to them: Go, and sacrifice to your God in this land.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in Exodus, chapter 8.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\nExodus Chapter 8\n1 And the Lord said to Moses: Go in to Pharao, and thou shalt say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Let my people go to sacrifice to me.\n2 But if thou wilt not let them go behold I will strike all thy coasts with frogs.\n3 And the river shall bring forth an abundance of frogs: which shall come up, and enter into thy house, and thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and in the houses of thy servants, and to thy people, and into thy ovens, and into the remains of thy meats;\n4 And the frogs shall come in to thee and to thy people, and to all thy servants.\n5 And the Lord said to Moses: Say to Aaron, Stretch forth thy hand upon the streams and upon the rivers and the pools, and bring forth frogs upon the land of Egypt.\n6 And Aaron stretched forth his hand upon the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.\n7 And the magicians also by their enchantments did in like manner, and the brought forth frogs upon all the land of Egypt.\n8 But Pharao called Moses and Aaron and said to them: Pray ye to the Lord to take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.\n9 And Moses said to Pharao: Set me a time when I shall pray for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, that the frogs may be driven away from thee and from thy house, and from thy servants, and from thy people: and may remain only in the river.\n10 And he answered: To morrow.

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.

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.

thou hast shewn no mercy to them: upon the ancient thou hast laid thy yoke exceeding heavy.\n7 And thou hast said: I shall be a lady for ever: thou hast not laid these things to thy heart, neither hast thou remembered thy latter end.\n8 And now hear these things, thou that art delicate, and dwellest confidently, that sayest in thy heart: I am, and there is none else besides me: I shall not sit as a widow, and I shall not know barrenness.\n9 These two things shall come upon thee suddenly in one day, barrenness and widowhood. All things are come upon thee, because of the multitude of thy sorceries, and for the great hardness of thy enchanters.\n10 And thou hast trusted in thy wickedness, and hast said: There is none that seeth me. Thy wisdom, and thy knowledge, this hath deceived thee. And thou hast said in thy heart: I am, and besides me there is no other.\n11 Evil shall come upon thee, and then shalt not know the rising thereof: and calamity shall fall violently upon thee, which thou canst not keep off: misery shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou shalt not know.\n12 Stand now with thy enchanters, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, in which thou hast laboured from thy youth, if so be it may profit thee any thing, or if thou mayst become stronger.\n13 Thou hast failed in the multitude or thy counsels: let now the astrologers stand and save thee, they that gazed at the stars, and counted the months, that from them they might tell the things that shall come to thee.\n14 Behold they are as stubble, fire hath burnt them, they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flames: there are no coals wherewith they may be warmed, nor fire, that they may sit thereat.\n15 Such are all the things become to thee, in which thou hast laboured: thy merchants

the next day gave orders to his army, to go up against Bethulia.\n2 Now there were in his troops a hundred and twenty thousand footmen, and two and twenty thousand horsemen, besides the preparations of those men who had been taken, and who had been brought away out of the provinces and cities of all the youth.\n3 All these prepared themselves together to fight against the children of Israel, and they came by the hillside to the top, which looketh toward Dothain, from the place which is called Behlma, unto Chelmon, which is over against Esdrelon.\n4 But the children of Israel, when they saw the multitude of them, prostrated themselves upon the ground, putting ashes upon their heads, praying with one accord, that the God of Israel would shew his mercy upon his people.\n5 And taking their arms of war, they posted themselves at the places, which by a narrow pathway lead directly between the mountains, and they guarded them all day and night.\n6 Now Holofernes, in going round about, found that the fountains which supplied them with water, ran through an aqueduct without the city on the south side: and he commanded their aqueduct to he cut off.\n7 Nevertheless there were springs not far from the walls, out of which they were seen secretly to draw water, to refresh themselves a little rather than to drink their fill.\n8 But the children of Ammon and Moab came to Holofernes, saying: The children of Israel trust not in their spears, nor in their arrows, but the mountains are their defense, and the steep hires and precipices guard them.\n9 Wherefore that thou mayst overcome them without joining battle, set guards at the springs that they may not draw water out of them, and thou shalt destroy them without sword, or at least being wearied out they will yield up their city, which they suppose, because it is situate in the mountains, to be impregnable.\n10 And these words pleased Holofernes, and his officers, and he placed all round about a hundred men at every spring.\n11 And when they had kept this watch for full twenty days, the cisterns, and the reserve of waters failed among all the inhabitants of Bethulia, so that there was not within the city, enough to satisfy them, no not for one day, for water was daily given out to the people by measure.\n12 Then all the men and women, young men, and children, gathering themselves together to Ozias, all together with one voice,\n13 Said: God be judge between us and thee, for thou hast done evil against us, in that thou wouldst not speak peaceably with the Assyrians, and for this cause God hath sold us into their hands.\n14 And therefore there is no one to help us, while we are cast down before their eyes in thirst, and sad destruction.\n15 And now assemble ye all that are in the city, that we may of our own accord yield ourselves all up to the people of Holofernes.\n16 For it is better, that being captives we should live and bless the Lord, than that we should die, and be a reproach to all flesh, after we have seen our wives and our infants die before our eyes.\n17 We call to witness this day heaven and earth, and the God of our fathers, who taketh vengeance upon us according to our sins, conjuring you to deliver now the city into the hand of the army of Holofernes, that our end may be short by the edge of the sword, which is made longer by the drought of thirst.\n18 And when they had said these things, there was great weeping and lamentation of all in the assembly, and for many hours with one voice they cried to God, saying:\n19 We have sinned with our fathers we have done unjustly, we have commited iniquity:\n20 Have thou mercy on us, because thou art good, or punish our iniquities by chastising us thyself, and deliver not them that trust in thee to a people that knoweth not thee,\n21 That they may not say among the gentiles: Where is their God?\n22 And when being wearied with these cries, and tired with these weepings, they held their peace,\n23 Ozias rising up all in tears, said: Be of good courage, my brethren, and let us wait these five days for mercy from the Lord.\n24 For perhaps he will put a stop to his indignation, and will give glory to his own name.\n25 But if after five days be past there come no aid, we will do the things which you leave spoken.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "From which book and what chapter does \"All that

And his servants brought her into the tent which he had commanded.\n5 And when she was going in, she desired that she might have liberty to go out at night and before day to prayer, and to beseech the Lord.\n6 And he commanded his chamberlains, that she might go out and in, to adore her God as she pleased, for three days.\n7 And she went out in the nights into the valley of Bethulia, and washed herself in a fountain of water.\n8 And as she came up, she prayed to the Lord the God of Israel, that he would direct her way to the deliverance of his people.\n9 And going in, she remained pure in the tent, until she took her own meat in the evening.\n10 And it came to pass on the fourth day, that Holofernes made a supper for his servants, and said to Vagao his eunuch: Go, and persuade that Hebrew woman, to consent of her own accord to dwell with me.\n11 For it is looked upon as shameful among the Assyrians, if a woman mock a man, by doing so as to pass free from him.\n12 Then Vagao went in to Judith, and said: Let not my good maid be afraid to go in to my lord, that she may be honoured before his face, that she may eat with him and drink wine and be merry.\n13 And Judith answered him: Who am I, that I should gainsay my lord?\n14 All that shall be good and best before his eyes, I will do.

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.

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.\n33 And their blood shall return the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed for ever.

Answer me:\n4 The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?\n5 But they thought within themselves, saying: If we shall say, From heaven: he will say: Why then did you not believe him?\n6 But if we say, Of men, the whole people will stone us: for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.\n7 And they answered, that they knew not whence it was.\n8 And Jesus said to them: Neither do I tell thee by what authority I do these things.\n9 And he began to speak to the people this parable: A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it out to husbandmen: and he was abroad for a long time.\n10 And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard. Who, beating him, sent him away empty.\n11 And again he sent another servant. But they beat him also, and treating him reproachfully, sent him away empty.\n12 And again he sent the third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out.\n13 Then the lord of the vineyard said: What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be, when they see him, they will reverence him.\n14 Whom when the husbandmen saw, they thought within themselves, saying: This is the heir, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.\n15 So casting him out of the vineyard, they killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?\n16 He will come, and will destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others. Which they hearing, said to him: God forbid.\n17 But he looking on them, said: What is this then that is written, The stone, which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?\n18 Whosoever shall fall upon that stone, shall be bruised: and upon whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.\n19 And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him the same hour: but they feared the people, for they knew that he spoke this parable to them.\n20 And being upon the watch, they sent spies, who should feign themselves just, that they might take hold of him in his words, that they might deliver him up to the authority and power of the governor.\n21 And they asked him, saying: Master, we know that thou speakest and teachest rightly: and thou dost not respect any person, but teachest the way of God in truth.\n22 Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar, or no?\n23 But he considering their guile, said to them: Why tempt you me?\n24 shew me a penny.

They answering, said to him, Caesar's.\n25 And he said to them: Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's: and to God the things that are God's.\n26 And they could not reprehend his word before the people: and wondering at his answer, they held their peace.\n27 And there came to him some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is any resurrection, and they asked him,\n28 Saying: Master, Moses wrote unto us, If any man's brother die, having a wife, and he leave no children, that his brother should take her to wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.\n29 There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died without children.\n30 And the next took her to wife, and he also died childless.\n31 And the third took her. And in like manner all the seven, and they left no children, and died.\n32 Last of all the woman died also.\n33 In the resurrection therefore, whose wife of them shall she be? For all the seven had her to wife.\n34 And Jesus said to them: The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:\n35 But they that shall be accounted worthy of that world, and of the resurrection from the dead, shall neither be married, nor take wives.\n36 Neither can they die any more: for they are equal to the angels, and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.\n37 Now that the dead rise again, Moses also shewed, at the bush, when he called the Lord, The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;\n38 For he is not the God of the dead, but of the living: for all live to him.\n39 And some of the scribes answering, said to him: Master, thou hast said well.\n40 And after that they durst not ask him any more questions.\n41 But he said to them: How say they that Christ is the son of David?\n42 And David himself saith in the book of Psalms: The Lord said to my Lord, sit thou on my right hand,\n43 Till I make thy enemies thy footstool.\n44 David then calleth him Lord: and how is he his son?\n45 And in the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples:\n46 Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and love salutations in the marketplace, and the first chairs in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts:\n47 Who devour the houses of widows, feigning long prayer.

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

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

And Achis said to David: And I will appoint thee to guard my life for ever.\n3 Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel mourned for him, and buried him in Ramatha his city. And Saul had put away all the magicians and soothsayers out of the land.\n4 And the Philistines were gathered together, and came and camped in Sunam: and Saul also gathered together all Israel, and came to Gelboe.\n5 And Saul saw the army of the Plilistines, and was afraid, and his heart was very much dismayed.\n6 And he consulted the Lord, and he answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by priests, nor by prophets.\n7 And Saul said to his servants: Seek me a woman that hath a divining spirit, and I will go to her, and inquire by her. And his servants said to him: There is a woman that hath a divining spirit at Endor.\n8 Then he disguised himself: and put on other clothes, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night, and he said to her: Divine to me by thy divining spirit, and bring me up him whom I shall tell thee.\n9 And the woman said to him: Behold thou knowest all that Saul hath done, and how he hath rooted out the magicians and soothsayers from the land: why then dost thou lay a snare for my life, to cause me to be put to death?\n10 And Saul swore unto her by the Lord, saying: As the Lord liveth there shall no evil happen to thee for this thing.\n11 And the woman said to him: Whom shall I bring up to thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.\n12 And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried out with a loud voice, and said to Saul: Why hast thou deceived me? for thou art Saul.\n13 And the king said to her: Fear not: what hast thou seen?

And Saul understood that it was Samuel, and he bowed himself with his face to the ground, and adored.\n15 And Samuel said to Saul: Why hast thou disturbed my rest, that I should be brought up? And Saul said, I am in great distress: for the Philistines fight against me, and God is departed from me, and would not hear me, neither by the hand of prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest shew me what I shall do.\n16 And Samuel said: Why askest thou me, seeing the Lord has departed from thee, and is gone over to thy rival:\n17 For the Lord will do to thee as he spoke by me, and he will rend thy kingdom out of thy hand, and will give it to thy neighbour David:\n18 Because thou didst not obey the voice of the Lord, neither didst thou execute the wrath of his indignation upon Amalec. Therefore hath the Lord done to thee what thou sufferest this day.\n19 And the Lord also will deliver Israel with thee into the hands of the Philistines: and to morrow thou and thy sons shall be with me: and the Lord will also deliver the army of Israel into the hands of the Philistines.\n20 And forthwith Saul fell all along on the ground, for he was frightened with the words of Samuel, and there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no bread all that day.\n21 And the woman came to Saul (for he was very much troubled) and said to him: Behold thy handmaid hath obeyed thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand: and I hearkened unto the words which thou spokest to me.\n22 Now therefore hear thou also the voice of thy handmaid, and let me set before thee a morsel of bread, that thou mayest eat and recover strength, and be able to go on thy journey.\n23 But he refused, and said: I will not eat.

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

And a great multitude was added to the Lord.\n25 And Barnabas went to Tarsus to seek Saul: whom, when he had found, he brought to Antioch.\n26 And they conversed there in the church a whole year; and they taught a great multitude, so that at Antioch the disciples were first named Christians.\n27 And in these days there came prophets from Jerusalem to Antioch:\n28 And one of them named Agabus, rising up, signified by the Spirit, that there should be a great famine over the whole world, which came to pass under Claudius.\n29 And the disciples, every man according to his ability, purposed to send relief to the brethren who dwelt in Judea:\n30 Which also they did, sending it to the ancients, by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"A little city, and few men in it: there came against it a great king, and invested it, and built bulwarks round about it, and the siege was perfect.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book Ecclesiastes, chapter 9.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\nEcclesiastes Chapter 9\n1 All these things have I considered in my heart, that I might carefully understand them: there are just men and wise men, and their works are in the hand of God: and yet man knoweth not whether he be worthy of love, or hatred:\n2 But all things are kept uncertain for the time to come, because all things equally happen to the just and to the wicked, to the good and to the evil, to the clean and to the unclean, to him that offereth victims, and to him that despiseth sacrifices. As the good is, so also is the sinner: as the perjured, so he also that sweareth truth.\n3 This is a very great evil among all things that are done under the sun, that the same things happen to all men: whereby also the hearts of the children of men are filled with evil, and with contempt while they live, and afterwards they shall be brought down to hell.\n4 There is no man that liveth always, or that hopeth for this: a living dog is better than a dead lion.\n5 For the living know that they shall die, but the dead know nothing more, neither have they a reward any more: for the memory of them is forgotten.\n6 Their love also, and their hatred, and their envy are all perished, neither have they any part in this world, and in the work that is done under the sun.\n7 Go then, and eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with gladness: because thy works please God.\n8 At all times let thy garments be white, and let not oil depart from thy head.\n9 Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest, all the days of thy unsteady life, which are given to thee under the sun, all the time of thy vanity: for this is thy portion in life, and in thy labour wherewith thou labourest under the sun.\n10 Whatsoever thy hand is able to do, do it earnestly: for neither work, nor reason, nor wisdom, nor knowledge shall be in hell, whither thou art hastening.\n11 I turned me to another thing, and I saw that under the sun, the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the learned, nor favour to the skillful: but time and chance in all.\n12 Man knoweth not his own end: but as fishes are taken with the hook, and as birds are caught with the snare, so men are taken in the evil time, when it shall suddenly come upon them.\n13 This wisdom also I have seen under the sun, and it seemed to me to be very great:\n14 A little city, and few men in it: there came against it a great king, and invested it, and built bulwarks round about it, and the siege was perfect.\n15 Now there was found in it a man poor and wise, and he delivered the city by his wisdom, and no man afterward remembered that poor man.\n16 And I said that wisdom is better than strength: how then is the wisdom of the poor man slighted, and his words not heard?\n17 The words of the wise are heard in silence, more than the cry of a prince among fools.\n18 Better is wisdom,

And Demetrius sat upon the throne of his kingdom:\n5 And there came to him the wicked and ungodly men of Israel: And Alcimus was at the head of them, who desired to be made high priest.\n6 And they accused the people to the king, saying: Judas and his brethren have destroyed all thy friends, and he hath driven us out of our land.\n7 Now therefore send some man whom thou trustest, and let him go, and see all the havock he hath made amongst us, and in the king's lands: and let him punish all his friends and their helpers.\n8 Then the king chose Bacchides, one of his friends that ruled beyond the great river in the kingdom, and was faithful to the king: and he sent him,\n9 To see the havock that Judas had made: and the wicked Alcimus he made high priest, and commanded him to take revenge upon the children of Israel.\n10 And they arose, and came with a great army into the land of Juda: and they sent messengers, and spoke to Judas and his brethren with peaceable words deceitfully.\n11 But they gave no heed to their words: for they saw that they were come with a great army.\n12 Then there assembled to Alcimus and Bacchides a company of the scribes to require things that are just:\n13 And first the Assideans that were among the children of Israel, and they sought peace of them.\n14 For they said: One that is a priest of the seed of Aaron is come, he will not deceive us.\n15 And he spoke to them peaceably: and he swore to them, saying: We will do you no harm nor your friends.\n16 And they believed him. And he took threescore of them, and slew them in one day, according to the word that is written:\n17 The flesh of thy saints, and the blood of them they have shed round about Jerusalem, and there was none to bury them.\n18 Then fear and trembling fell upon all the people: for they said: There is no truth, nor justice among them: for they have broken the covenant, and the oath which they made.\n19 And Bacchides removed the camp from Jerusalem, and pitched in Bethzecha: and he sent, and took many of them that were fled away from him, and some of the people he killed, and threw them into a great pit.\n20 Then he committed the country to Alcimus, and left with him troops to help him. So Bacchides went away to the king:\n21 But Alcimus did what he could to maintain his chief priesthood.\n22 And they that disturbed the people resorted to him, and they got the land of Juda into their power, and did much hurt in Israel.\n23 And Judas saw all the evils that Alcimus, and they that were with him, did to the children of Israel, much more than the Gentiles.\n24 And he went out into all the coasts of Juda round about, and took vengeance upon the men that had revolted, and they ceased to go forth any more into the country.\n25 And Alcimus saw that Judas, and they that were with him prevailed: and he knew that he could not stand against them, and he went back to the king, and accused them of many crimes.\n26 And the king sent Nicanor one of his principal lords, who was a great enemy to Israel: and he commanded him to destroy the people.\n27 And Nicanor came to Jerusalem with a great army, and he sent to Judas and to his brethren deceitfully with friendly words,\n28 Saying: Let there be no fighting between me and you: I will come with a few men to see your faces with peace.\n29 And he came to Judas, and they saluted one another peaceably: and the enemies were prepared to take away Judas by force.\n30 And the thing was known to Judas that he was come to him with deceit: and he was much afraid of him, and would not see his face any more.\n31 And Nicanor knew that his counsel was discovered: and he went out to fight against Judas near Capharsalama.\n32 And there fell of Nicanor's army almost five thousand men, and they fled into the city of David.\n33 And after this Nicanor went up into mount Sion: and some of the priests and the people came out to salute him peaceably, and to shew him the holocausts that were offered for the king.\n34 But he mocked them and despised them, and abused them: and he spoke proudly,\n35 And swore in anger, saying: Unless Judas and his army be delivered into my hands, as soon as ever I return in peace, I will burn this house. And he went out in a great rage.\n36 And the priests went in, and stood before the face of the altar and the temple: and weeping, they said:\n37 Thou, O Lord, hast chosen this house for thy name to be called upon therein, that it might be a house of prayer and supplication for thy people.\n38 Be avenged of this man, and his army, and let them fall by the sword: remember their blasphemies, and suffer them not to continue any longer.\n39 Then Nicanor went out from Jerusalem, and encamped near to Bethoron: and an army of Syria joined him.\n40 But Judas pitched in Adarsa with three thousand men: and Judas prayed, and said:\n41 O Lord, when they that were sent by king Sennacherib blasphemed thee, an angel went out, and slew of them a hundred and eighty-five thousand:\n42 Even so destroy this army in our sight to day, and let the rest know that he hath spoken ill against thy sanctuary: and judge thou him according to his wickedness.\n43 And the armies joined battle on the thirteenth day of the month Adar: and the army of Nicanor was defeated, and he himself was first slain in the battle.\n44 And when his army saw that Nicanor was slain, they threw away their weapons, and fled:\n45 And they pursued after them one day's journey from Adazer, even till ye come to Gazara, and they sounded the trumpets after them with signals.\n46 And they went forth out of all the towns of Judea round about, and they pushed them with the horns, and they turned again to them, and they were all slain with the sword, and there was not left of them so much as one.\n47 And they took the spoils of them for a booty, and they cut off Nicanor's head, and his right hand, which he had proudly stretched out, and they brought it, and hung it up over against Jerusalem.\n48 And the people rejoiced exceedingly, and they spent that day with great joy.\n49 And he ordained that this day should be kept every year, being the thirteenth of the month of Adar.\n50 And the land of Juda was quiet for a short time.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- Book: 2 Maccabees\n- Chapter: 15\n- Verse: 18", "role": "user" }, { "content": "2 Maccabees 15:18 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"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.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"Now there went with Absalom two hundred men out of Jerusalem that were called, going with simplicity of heart, and knowing nothing of the design.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from 2 Samuel, chapter 15.\n\nWant the full chapter?

of the chapter:\n1 Maccabees Chapter 9\n1 In the mean time when Demetrius heard that Nicanor and his army were fallen in battle, he sent again Bacchides and Alcimus into Judea; and the right wing of his army with them.\n2 And they took the road that leadeth to Galgal, and they camped in Masaloth, which is in Arabella: and they made themselves masters of it, and slew many people.\n3 In the first month of the hundred and fifty-second year they brought the army to Jerusalem:\n4 And they arose, and went to Berea with twenty thousand men, and two thousand horsemen.\n5 Now Judas had pitched his tents in Laisa, and three thousand chosen men with him:\n6 And they saw the multitude of the army that they were many, and they were seized with great fear: and many withdrew themselves out of the camp, and there remained of them no more than eight hundred men.\n7 And Judas saw that his army slipped away, and the battle pressed upon him, and his heart was cast down: because he had not time to gather them together, and he was discouraged.\n8 Then he said to them that remained: Let us arise, and go against our enemies, if we may be able to fight against them.\n9 But they dissuaded him, saying: We shall not be able, but let us save our lives now, and return to our brethren, and then we will fight against them: for we are but few.\n10 Then Judas said: God forbid we should do this thing, and flee away from them: but if our time be come, let us die manfully for our brethren, and let us not stain our glory.\n11 And the army removed out of the camp, and they stood over against them: and the horsemen were divided into two troops, and the slingers, and the archers went before the army, and they that were in the front were all men of valour.\n12 And Bacchides was in the right wing, and the legion drew near on two sides, and they sounded the trumpets:\n13 And they also were on Judas' side, even they also cried out, and the earth shook at the noise of the armies: and the battle was fought from morning even unto the evening.\n14 And Judas perceived that the stronger part of the army of Bacchides was on the right side, and all the stout of heart came together with him:\n15 And the right wing was discomfited by them, and he pursued them even to the mount Azotus.\n16 And they that were in the left wing saw that the right wing was discomfited, and they followed after Judas, and them that were with him, at their back:\n17 And the battle was hard fought, and there fell many wounded of the one side and of the other.\n18 And Judas was slain, and the rest fled away.\n19 And Jonathan and Simon took Judas their brother, and buried him in the sepulchre of their fathers in the city of Modin.\n20 And all the people of Israel bewailed him with great lamentation, and they mourned for him many days.\n21 And said: How is the mighty man fallen, that saved the people of Israel!\n22 But the rest of the words of the wars of Judas, and of the noble acts that he did, and of his greatness, are not written: for they were very many.\n23 And it came to pass after the death of Judas, that the wicked began to put forth their heads in all the confines of Israel, and all the workers of iniquity rose up.\n24 In those days there was a very great famine, and they and all their country yielded to Bacchides.\n25 And Bacchides chose the wicked men, and made them lords of the country:\n26 And they sought out, and made diligent search after the friends of Judas, and brought them to Bacchides, and he took vengeance of them, and abused them.\n27 And there was a great tribulation in Israel, such as was not since the day, that there was no prophet seen in Israel.\n28 And all the friends of Judas came together, and said to Jonathan:\n29 Since thy brother Judas died, there is not a man like him to go forth against our enemies, Bacchides, and them that are the enemies of our nation.\n30 Now therefore we have chosen thee this day to be our prince, and captain in his stead to fight our battles.\n31 So Jonathan took upon him the government at that time, and rose up in the place of Judas his brother.\n32 And Bacchides had knowledge of it, and sought to kill him.\n33 And Jonathan and Simon his brother, knew it, and all that were with them: and they fled into the desert of Thecua, and they pitched by the water of the lake of Asphar,\n34 And Bacchides understood it, and he came himself with all his army over the Jordan on the sabbath day.\n35 And Jonathan sent his brother a captain of the people, to desire the Nabutheans his friends, that they would lend them their equipage, which was copious.\n36 And the children of Jambri came forth out of Madaba, and took John, and all that he had, and went away with them.\n37 After this it was told Jonathan, and Simon his brother, that the children of Jambri made a great marriage, and were bringing the bride out of Madaba, the daughter of one of the great princes of Chanaan, with great pomp.\n38 And the remembered the blood of John their brother: and they went up, and hid themselves under the covert of the mountain.\n39 And they lifted up their eyes, and saw: and behold a tumult, and great preparation: and the bridegroom came forth, and his friends, and his brethren to meet them with timbrels, and musical instruments, and many weapons.\n40 And they rose up against them from the place where they lay in ambush, and slew them, and there fell many wounded, and the rest fled into the mountains, and they took all their spoils:\n41 And the marriage was turned into mourning, and the noise of their musical instruments into lamentation.\n42 And they took revenge for the blood of their brother: and they returned to the bank of the Jordan.\n43 And Bacchides heard it, and he came on the sabbath day even to the bank of the Jordan with a great power.\n44 And Jonathan said to his company: Let us arise, and fight against our enemies: for it is not now as yesterday, and the day before.\n45 And behold the battle is before us, and the water of the Jordan on this side and on that side, and banks, and marshes, and woods: and there is no place for us to turn aside.\n46 Now therefore cry ye to heaven, that ye may be delivered from the hand of your enemies. And they joined battle.\n47 And Jonathan stretched forth his hand to strike Bacchides, but he turned away from him backwards.\n48 And Jonathan, and they that were with him leaped into the Jordan, and swam over the Jordan to them:\n49 And there fell of Bacchides' side that day a thousand men: and they returned to Jerusalem,\n50 And they built strong cities in Judea, the fortress that was in Jericho, and in Ammaus, and in Bethoron, and in Bethel, and Thamnata, and Phara, and Thopo, with high walls, and gates, and bars.\n51 And he placed garrisons in them, that they might wage war against Israel:\n52 And he fortified the city of Bethsura, and Gazara, and the castle, and set garrisons in them, and provisions of victuals:\n53 And he took the sons of the chief men of the country for hostages, and put them in the castle in Jerusalem in custody.\n54 Now in the year one hundred and fifty-three, the second month, Alcimus commanded the walls of the inner court of the sanctuary to be thrown down, and the works of the prophets to be destroyed: and he began to be destroyed: and he began to destroy.\n55 At that time Alcimus was struck: and his works were hindered, and his mouth was stopped, and he was taken with a palsy, so that he could no more speak a word, nor give order concerning his house.\n56 And Alcimus died at that time in great torment.\n57 And Bacchides saw that Alcimus was dead: and he returned to the king, and the land was quiet for two years.\n58 And all the wicked held a council, saying: Behold Jonathan, and they that are with him, dwell at ease, and without fear: now therefore let us bring Bacchides hither, and he shall take them all in one night.\n59 So they went, and gave him counsel.\n60 And he arose to come with a great army: and he sent secretly letters to his adherents that were in Judea, to seize upon Jonathan, and them that were with him: but they could not, for their design was known to them.\n61 And he apprehended of the men of the country, that were the principal authors of the mischief, fifty men, and slew them.\n62 And Jonathan, and Simon, and they that were with him retired into Bethbessen, which is in the desert: and he repaired the breaches thereof, and they fortified it.\n63 And when Bacchides knew it, he gathered together all his multitude: and sent word to them that were of Judea.\n64 And he came, and camped above Bethbessen, and fought against it many days, and made engines.\n65 But Jonathan left his brother Simon in the city, and went forth into the country: and came with a number of men.\n66 And struck Odares, and his brethren, and the children of Phaseron in their tents, and he began to slay, and to increase in forces.\n67 But Simon and they that were with him, sallied out of the city, and burnt the engines.\n68 And they fought against Bacchides, and he was discomfited by them: and they afflicted him exceedingly, for his counsel, and his enterprise was in vain.\n69 And he was angry with the wicked men that had given him counsel to come into their country, and he slew many of them: and he purposed to return with the rest into their country.\n70 And Jonathan had knowledge of it, and he sent ambassadors to him to make peace with him, and to restore to him the prisoners.\n71 And he accepted it willingly, and did according to his words, and swore that he would do him no harm all the days of his life.\n72 And he restored to him the prisoners which he before had taken out of the land of Juda: and he returned and went away into his own country, and he came no more into their borders.\n73 So the sword ceased from Israel: and Jonathan dwelt in Machmas, and Jonathan began there to judge the people, and he destroyed the wicked out of Israel.\n", "role": "assistant" }, {

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

For star differeth from star in glory.\n42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it shall rise in incorruption.\n43 It is sown in dishonour, it shall rise in glory. It is sown in weakness, it shall rise in power.\n44 It is sown a natural body, it shall rise a spiritual body.

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": "Can you tell me the book, chapter, and verse for \"But those things which God before had shewed by the mouth of all the prophets, that his Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"But those things which God before had shewed by the mouth of all the prophets, that his Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.\" appears in Acts, chapter 3, at verse 18 of the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"The ringtail, and the vulture, and the kite according to their kind:\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from Deuteronomy, chapter 14.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\nDeuteronomy Chapter 14\n1 Be ye children of the Lord your God: you shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness for the dead;\n2 Because thou art a holy people to the Lord thy God: and he chose thee to be his peculiar people of all nations that are upon the earth.\n3 Eat not the things that are unclean.\n4 These are the beasts that you shall eat, the ox, and the sheep, and the goat,\n5 The hart and the roe, the buffle, the chamois, the pygarg, the wild goat, the camelopardalus.\n6 Every beast that divideth the hoof in two parts, and cheweth the cud, you shall eat.\n7 But of them that chew the cud, but divide not the hoof, you shall not eat, such as the camel, the hare, and the cherogril: because they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof, they shall be unclean to you.\n8 The swine also, because it divideth the hoof, but cheweth not the cud, shall be unclean, their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch.\n9 These shall you eat of all that abide in the waters: All that have fins and scales, you shall eat.\n10 Such as are without fins and scales, you shall not eat, because they are unclean.\n11 All birds that are clean you shall eat.\n12 The unclean eat not: to wit, the eagle, and the grype, and the osprey,\n13 The ringtail, and the vulture, and the kite according to their kind:\n14 And all of the raven's kind:\n15 And the ostrich, and the owl, and the larus, and the hawk according to its kind:\n16 The heron, and the swan, and the stork,\n17 And the cormorant, the porphyrion, and the night crow,\n18 The bittern, and the charadrion, every one in their kind: the hoop also and the bat.\n19 Every thing that creepeth, and hath little wings, shall be unclean, and shall not be eaten.\n20 All that is clean, you shall eat.\n21 But whatsoever is dead of itself, eat not thereof.

And no one durst withstand them, for the fear of their power had gone through every people.\n3 And the judges of the provinces, and the governors, and lieutenants, and every one in dignity, that presided over every place and work, extolled the Jews for fear of Mardochai:\n4 For they knew him to be prince of the palace, and to have great power: and the fame of his name increased daily, and was spread abroad through all men's mouths.\n5 So the Jews made a great slaughter of their enemies, and killed them, repaying according to what they had prepared to do to them:\n6 Insomuch that even in Susan they killed five hundred men, besides the ten sons of Aman the Agagite, the enemy of the Jews: whose names are these:\n7 Pharsandatha, and Delphon, and Esphatha,\n8 And Phoratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,\n9 And Phermesta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Jezatha.\n10 And when they had slain them, they would not touch the spoils of their goods.\n11 And presently the number of them that were killed in Susan was brought to the king.\n12 And he said to the queen: The Jews have killed five hundred men in the city of Susan, besides the ten sons of Aman: how many dost thou think they have slain in all the provinces? What askest thou more, and what wilt thou have me to command to be done?\n13 And she answered: If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews, to do to morrow in Susan as they have done to day, and that the ten sons of Aman may be hanged upon gibbets.\n14 And the king commanded that it should be so done. And forthwith the edict was hung up in Susan, and the ten sons of Aman were hanged.\n15 And on the fourteenth day of the month Adar the Jews gathered themselves together, and they killed in Susan three hundred men: but they took not their substance.\n16 Moreover through all the provinces which were subject to the king's dominion the Jews stood for their lives, and slew their enemies and persecutors: insomuch that the number of them that were Billed amounted to seventy-five thousand, and no man took any of their goods.\n17 Now the thirteenth day of the month Adar was the first day with them all of the slaughter, and on the fourteenth day they left off. Which they ordained to be kept holy day, so that all times hereafter they should celebrate it with feasting, joy, and banquets.\n18 But they that were killing in the city of Susan, were employed in the slaughter on the thirteenth and fourteenth day of the same month: and on the fifteenth day they rested. And therefore they appointed that day to be a holy day of feasting and gladness.\n19 But those Jews that dwelt in towns not walled and in villages, appointed the fourteenth day of the month Adar for banquets and gladness, so as to rejoice on that day, and send one another portions of their banquets and meats.\n20 And Mardochai wrote all these things, and sent them comprised in letters to the Jews that abode in all the king's provinces, both those that lay near and those afar off,\n21 That they should receive the fourteenth and fifteenth day of the month Adar for holy days, and always at the return of the year should celebrate them with solemn honour:\n22 Because on those days the Jews revenged themselves of their enemies, and their mourning and sorrow were turned into mirth and joy, and that these should be days of feasting and gladness, in which they should send one to another portions of meats; and should give gifts to the poor.\n23 And the Jews undertook to observe with solemnity all they had begun to do at that time, which Mardochai by letters had commanded to be done.\n24 For Aman, the son of Amadathi of the race of Agag, the enemy and adversary of the Jews, had devised evil against them, to kill them and destroy them: and had cast Phur, that is, the lot.\n25 And afterwards Esther went in to the king, beseeching him that his endeavours might be made void by the king's letters: and the evil that he had intended against the Jews, might return upon his own head. And so both he and his sons were hanged upon gibbets.\n26 And since that time these days are called Phurim, that is, of lots: because Phur, that is, the lot, was cast into the urn. And all things that were done, are contained in the volume of this epistle, that is, of this book:\n27 And the things that they suffered, and that were afterwards changed, the Jews took upon themselves and their seed, and upon all that had a mind to be joined to their religion, so that it should be lawful for none to pass these days without solemnity: which the writing testifieth, and certain times require, as the years continually succeed one another.\n28 These are the days which shall never be forgot: and which all provinces in the whole world shall celebrate throughout all generations: neither is there any city wherein the days of Phurim, that is, of lots, must not be observed by the Jews, and by their posterity, which is bound to these ceremonies.\n29 And Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mardochai the Jew, wrote also a second epistle, that with all diligence this day should be established a festival for the time to come.\n30 And they sent to all the Jews that were in the hundred and twenty-seven provinces of king Assuerus, that they should have peace, and receive truth,\n31 And observe the days of lots, and celebrate them with joy in their proper time: as Mardochai and Esther had appointed, and they undertook them to be observed by themselves and by their seed, fasts, and cries, and the days of lots,\n32 And all things which are contained in the history of this book, which is called Esther.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"And Sara my master's wife hath borne my master a son in her old age, and he hath given him all that he had.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in Genesis, chapter 24.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\nGenesis Chapter 24\n1 Now Abraham was old; and advanced in age: and the Lord had blessed him in all things.\n2 And he said to the elder servant of his house, who was ruler over all he had: Put thy hand under my thigh,\n3 That I may make thee swear by the Lord the God of heaven and earth, that thou take not a wife for my son, of the daughters of the Chanaanites, among whom I dwell:\n4 But that thou go to my own country and kindred, and take a wife from thence for my son Isaac.\n5 The servant answered: If the woman will not come with me into this land, must I bring thy son back again to the place, from whence thou camest out?\n6 And Abraham said: Beware thou never bring my son back again thither.\n7 The Lord God of heaven, who took me out of my father's house, and out of my native country, who spoke to me, and swore to me, saying: To thy seed will I give this land: he will send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take from thence a wife for my son.\n8 But if the woman will not follow thee, thou shalt not be bound by the oath; only bring not my son back thither again.\n9 The servant therefore put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his lord, and swore to him upon this word.\n10 And he took ten camels of his master's herd, and departed, carrying something of all his goods with him, and he set forward and went on to Mesopotamia to the city of Nachor.\n11 And when he had made the camels lie down without the town near a well of water in the evening, at the time when women are wont to come out to draw water, he said:\n12 O Lord the God of my master Abraham, meet me to day, I beseech thee, and shew kindness to my master Abraham.\n13 Behold I stand nigh the spring of water, and the daughters of the inhabitants of this city will come out to draw water.\n14 Now, therefore, the maid to whom I shall say: Let down thy pitcher that I may drink: and she shall answer, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let it be the same whom thou hast provided for thy servant Isaac: and by this I shall understand, that thou hast shewn kindness to my master.\n15 He had not yet ended these words within himself, and behold Rebecca came out, the daughter of Bathuel, son of Melcha, wife to Nachor the brother of Abraham, having a pitcher on her shoulder:\n16 An exceeding comely maid, and a most beautiful virgin, and not known to man: and she went down to the spring, and filled her pitcher and was coming back.\n17 And the servant ran to meet her, and said: Give me a little water to drink of thy pitcher.\n18 And she answered: Drink, my lord. And quickly she let down the pitcher upon her arm, and gave him drink.\n19 And when he had drunk, she said: I will draw water for thy camels also, till they all drink.\n20 And pouring out the pitcher into the troughs, she ran back to the well to draw water: and having drawn she gave to all the camels.\n21 But he musing beheld her with silence, desirous to know whether the Lord had made his journey prosperous or not.\n22 And after that the camels had drunk, the man took out golden earrings, weighing two sicles: and as many bracelets of ten sicles weight.\n23 And he said to her: Whose daughter art thou? tell me: is there any place in thy father's house to lodge?\n24 And she answered: I am the daughter of Bathuel, the son of Melcha, whom she bore to Nachor.\n25 And she said moreover to him: We have good store of both straw and hay, and a large place to lodge in.\n26 The man bowed himself down, and adored the Lord,\n27 Saying: Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, who hath not taken away his mercy and truth from my master, and hath brought me the straight way into the house of my master's brother.\n28 Then the maid ran, and told in her mother's house, all that she had heard.\n29 And Rebecca had a brother named Laban, who went out in haste to the man, to the well.\n30 And when he had seen the earrings and bracelets in his sister's hands, and had heard all that she related, saying: Thus and thus the man spoke to me: he came to the man who stood by the camels, and near to the spring of water,\n31 And said to him: Come in, thou blessed of the Lord: why standest thou without? I have prepared the house, and a place for the camels.\n32 And he brought him in into his lodging: and he unharnessed the camels and gave straw and hay, and water to wash his feet, and the feet of the men that were come with him.\n33 And bread was set before him. But he said: I will not eat, till I tell my message. He answered him: Speak.\n34 And he said: I am the servant of Abraham:\n35 And the Lord hath blessed my master wonderfully, and he is become great: and he hath given him sheep and oxen, silver and gold, menservants and womenservants, camels and asses.\n36 And Sara my master's wife hath borne my master a son in her old age, and he hath given him all that he had.\n37 And my master made me swear, saying: Thou shalt not take a wife for my son of the Chanaanites, in whose land I dwell:\n38 But thou shalt go to my father's house, and shalt take a wife of my own kindred for my son:\n39 But I answered my master: What if the woman will not come with me?\n40 The Lord, said he, in whose sight I walk, will send his angel with thee, and will direct thy way: and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my own kindred, and of my father's house.\n41 But thou shalt be clear from my curse, when thou shalt come to my kindred, if they will not give thee one.\n42 And I came to day to the well of water, and said: O Lord God of my master Abraham, if thou hast prospered my way, wherein I now walk,\n43 Behold I stand by the well of water, and the virgin, that shall come out to draw water, who shall hear me say: Give me a little water to drink of thy pitcher:\n44 And shall say to me: Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels: let the same be the woman, whom the Lord hath prepared for my master's son.\n45 And whilst I pondered these things secretly with myself, Rebecca appeared coming with a pitcher, which she carried on her shoulder: and she went down to the well and drew water. And I said to her: Give me a little to drink.\n46 And she speedily let down the pitcher from her shoulder, and said to me: Both drink thou, and to thy camels I will give drink. I drank, and she watered the camels.\n47 And I asked her, and said: Whose daughter art thou? And she answered: I am the daughter of Bathuel, the son of Nachor, whom Melcha bore to him.

He offered gifts also to her brothers, and to her mother.\n54 And a banquet was made, and they ate and drank together, and lodged there.

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

chapter for you:\n1 Maccabees Chapter 13\n1 Now Simon heard that Tryphon was gathering together a very great army, to invade the land of Juda, and to destroy it.\n2 And seeing that the people was in dread, and in fear, he went up to Jerusalem, and assembled the people:\n3 And exhorted them, saying: You know what great battles I and my brethren, and the house of my father, have fought for the laws, and the sanctuary, and the distresses that we have seen:\n4 By reason whereof all my brethren have lost their lives for Israel's sake, and I am left alone.\n5 And now far be it from me to spare my life in any time of trouble: for I am not better than my brethren.\n6 I will avenge then my nation and the sanctuary, and our children, and wives: for all the heathens are gathered together to destroy us out of mere malice.\n7 And the spirit of the people was enkindled as soon as they heard these words.\n8 And they answered with a loud voice, saying: Thou art our leader in the place of Judas, and Jonathan thy brother.\n9 Fight thou our battles, and we will do whatsoever thou shalt say to us.\n10 So gathering together all the men of war, he made haste to finish all the walls of Jerusalem, and he fortified it round about.\n11 And he sent Jonathan the son of Absalom, and with him a new army into Joppe, and he cast out them that were in it, and himself remained there.\n12 And Tryphon removed from Ptolemais with a great army, to invade the land of Juda, and Jonathan was with him in custody.\n13 But Simon pitched in Addus, over against the plain.\n14 And when Tryphon understood that Simon was risen up in the place of his brother Jonathan, and that he meant to join battle with him, he sent messengers to him,\n15 Saying: We have detained thy brother Jonathan for the money that he owed in the king's account, by reason of the affairs which he had the management of.\n16 But now send a hundred talents of silver, and his two sons for hostages, that when he is set at liberty he may not revolt from us, and we will release him.\n17 Now Simon knew that he spoke deceitfully to him, nevertheless he ordered the money, and the children to be sent: lest he should bring upon himself a great hatred of the people of Israel, who might have said:\n18 Because he sent not the money, and the children, therefore is he lost.\n19 So he sent the children, and the hundred talents: and he lied, and did not let Jonathan go.\n20 And after this Tryphon entered within the country, to destroy it: and they went about by the way that leadeth to Ador: and Simon and his army marched to every place whithersoever they went.\n21 And they that were in the castle, sent messengers to Tryphon, that he should make haste to come through the desert, and send them victuals.\n22 And Tryphon made ready all his horsemen to come that night: but there fell a very great snow, and he came not into the country of Galaad.\n23 And when he approached to Bascama, he slew Jonathan and his sons there.\n24 And Tryphon returned, and went into his own country.\n25 And Simon sent, and took the bones of Jonathan his brother, and buried them in Modin, in the city of his fathers.\n26 And all Israel bewailed him with great lamentation: and they mourned for him many days.\n27 And Simon built over the sepulchre of his father and of his brethren, a building lofty to the sight, of polished stone behind and before:\n28 And he set up seven pyramids one against another for his father and his mother, and his four brethren:\n29 And round about these he set great pillars: and upon the pillars arms for a perpetual memory: and by the arms ships carved, which might be seen by all that sailed on the sea.\n30 This is the sepulchre that he made in Modin even unto this day.\n31 But Tryphon when he was upon a journey with the young king Antiochus, treacherously slew him.\n32 And he reigned in his place, and put on the crown of Asia: and brought great evils upon the land.\n33 And Simon built up the strong holds of Judea, fortifying them with high towers, and great walls, and gates, and bars: and he stored up victuals in the fortresses.\n34 And Simon chose men and sent to king Demetrius, to the end that he should grant an immunity to the land: for all that Tryphon did was to spoil.\n35 And king Demetrius in answer to this request, wrote a letter in this manner:\n36 King Demetrius to Simon the high priest, and friend of kings, and to the ancients, and to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n37 The golden crown, and the palm, which you sent, we have received: and we are ready to make a firm peace with you, and to write to the king's chief officers to release you the things that we have released.\n38 For all that we have decreed in your favour, shall stand in force. The strong holds that you have built, shall be your own.\n39 And as for any oversight or fault committed unto this day, we forgive it, and the crown which you owed: and if any other thing were taxed in Jerusalem, now let it not be taxed.\n40 And if any of you be fit to be enrolled among ours, let them be enrolled, and let there be peace between us.\n41 In the year one hundred and seventy the yoke of the Gentiles was taken off from Israel.\n42 And the people of Israel began to write in the instruments, and public records, The first year under Simon the high priest, the great captain and prince of the Jews.\n43 In those days Simon besieged Gaza, and camped round about it, and he made engines, and set them to the city, and he struck one tower, and took it.\n44 And they that were within the engine leaped into the city: and there was a great uproar in the city.\n45 And they that were in the city went up with their wives and children upon the wall, with their garments rent, and they cried with a loud voice, beseeching Simon to grant them peace.\n46 And they said: Deal not with us according to our evil deeds, but according to thy mercy.\n47 And Simon being moved, did not destroy them: but yet he cast them out of the city, and cleansed the houses wherein there had been idols, and then he entered into it with hymns, blessing the Lord.\n48 And having cast out of it all uncleanness, he placed in it men that should observe the law: and he fortified it, and made it his habitation.\n49 But they that were in the castle of Jerusalem were hindered from going out and coming into the country, and from buying and selling: and they were straitened with hunger, and many of them perished through famine.\n50 And they cried to Simon for peace, and he granted it to them: and he cast them out from thence, and cleansed the castle from uncleannesses.\n51 And they entered into it the three and twentieth day of the second month, in the year one hundred and seventy-one, with thanksgiving, and branches of palm trees, and harps, and cymbals, and psalteries, and hymns, and canticles, because the great enemy was destroyed out of Israel.\n52 And he ordained that these days should be kept every year with gladness.\n53 And he fortified the mountain of the temple that was near the castle, and he dwelt there himself, and they that were with him.\n54 And Simon saw that John his son was a valiant man for war: and he made him captain of all the forces: and he dwelt in Gazara.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"Moreover all the chief of the priests, and the people wickedly transgressed according to all the abominations of the Gentiles: and they defiled the house of the Lord, which he had sanctified to himself in Jerusalem.\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from 2 Chronicles, chapter 36.\n\nWant the full chapter?

Its beginning was from the top of the most salt sea, and from the bay thereof, that looketh to the south.\n3 And it goeth out towards the ascent of the Scorpion, and passeth on to Sina: and ascendeth into Cadesbarne, and reacheth into Esron, going up to Addar, and compassing Carcaa.\n4 And from thence passing along into Asemona, and reaching the torrent of Egypt: and the bounds thereof shall be the great sea, this shall be the limit of the south coast.\n5 But on the east side the beginning shall be the most salt sea even to the end of the Jordan: and towards the north, from the bay of the sea unto the same river Jordan.\n6 And the border goeth up into Beth-Hagla, and passeth by the north into Beth-Araba: going up to the stone of Boen the son of Ruben.\n7 And reaching as far as the borders of Debara from the valley of Achor, and so northward looking towards Galgal, which is opposite to the ascent of Adommin, on the south side of the torrent: and the border passeth the waters that are called the fountain of the sun: and the goings out thereof shall be at the fountain Rogel.\n8 And it goeth up by the valley of the son of Ennom on the side 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, the city of the woods.\n10 And it compasseth from Baala westward unto mount Seir: and passeth by the side of mount Jarim to the north into Cheslon: and goeth down into Bethsames, and passeth into 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.\n15 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.

the mines of silver and of gold that are there, and had gotten possession of all the place by their counsel and patience:\n4 And had conquered places that were very far off from them, and kings that came against them from the ends of the earth, and had overthrown them with great slaughter: and the rest pay them tribute every year.\n5 And that they had defeated in battle Philip, and Perses the king of the Ceteans, and the rest that had borne arms against them, and had conquered them:\n6 And how Antiochus the great king of Asia, who went to fight against them, having a hundred and twenty elephants, with horsemen, and chariots, and a very great army, was routed by them:\n7 And how they took him alive, and appointed to him, that both he and they that should reign after him, should pay a great tribute, and that he should give hostages, and that which was agreed upon,\n8 And the country of the Indians, and of the Medes, and of the Lydians, some of their best provinces: and those which they had taken from them they gave to king Eumenes.\n9 And that they who were in Greece had a mind to go and to destroy them: and they had knowledge thereof,\n10 And they sent a general against them, and fought with them, and many of them were slain, and they carried away their wives and their children captives, and spoiled them, and took possession of their land, and threw down their walls, and brought them to be their servants unto this day.\n11 And the other kingdoms, and islands, that at any time had resisted them, they had destroyed and brought under their power.\n12 But with their friends, and such as relied upon them, they kept amity, and had conquered kingdoms that were near, and that were far off: for all that heard their name, were afraid of them.\n13 That whom they had a mind to help to a kingdom, those reigned: and whom they would, they deposed from a kingdom: and they were greatly exalted.\n14 And none of all these wore a crown, or was clothed in purple, to be magnified thereby.\n15 And that they made themselves a senate house, and consulted daily three hundred and twenty men, that sat in council always for the people, that they might do the things that were right.\n16 And that they committed their government to one man every year, to rule over all their country, and they all obey one, and there is no envy, nor jealousy amongst them.\n17 So Judas chose Eupolemus the son of John, the son of Jacob, and Jason the son of Eleazar, and he sent them to Rome to make a league of amity and confederacy with them.\n18 And that they might take off from them the yoke of the Grecians, for they saw that they oppressed the kingdom of Israel with servitude.\n19 And they went to Rome, a very long journey, and they entered into the senate house, and said:\n20 Judas Machabeus, and his brethren, and the people of the Jews have sent us to you, to make alliance and peace with you, and that we may be registered your confederates and friends.\n21 And the proposal was pleasing in their sight.\n22 And this is the copy of the writing that they wrote back again, graven in tables of brass, and sent to Jerusalem, that it might be with them there for a memorial of the peace and alliance.\n23 GOOD SUCCESS BE TO THE ROMANS, and to the people of the Jews, by sea and by land for ever: and far be the sword and enemy from them.\n24 But if there come first any war upon the Romans, or any of their confederates, in all their dominions:\n25 The nation of the Jews shall help them according as the time shall direct, with all their heart:\n26 Neither shall they give them, whilst they are fighting, or furnish them with wheat, or arms, or money, or ships, as it hath seemed good to the Romans: and they shall obey their orders, without taking any thing of them.\n27 In like manner also if war shall come first upon the nation of the Jews, the Romans shall help them with all their heart, according as the time shall permit them.\n28 And there shall not be given to them that come to their aid, either wheat, or arms, or money, or ships, as it hath seemed good to the Romans: and they shall observe their orders without deceit.\n29 According to these articles did the Romans covenant with the people of the Jews.\n30 And if after this one party or the other shall have a mind to add to these articles, or take away anything, they may do it at their pleasure: and whatsoever they shall add, or take away, shall be ratified.\n31 Moreover concerning the evils that Demetrius the king hath done against them, we have written to him, saying: Why hast thou made thy yoke heavy upon our friends, and allies, the Jews?\n32 If therefore they come again to us complaining of thee, we will do them justice, and will make war against thee by sea and

God forbid.\n4 But God is true; and every man a liar, as it is written, That thou mayest be justified in thy words, and mayest overcome when thou art judged.\n5 But if our injustice commend the justice of God, what shall we say? Is God unjust, who executeth wrath?\n6 (I speak according to man.) God forbid: otherwise how shall God judge this world?\n7 For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie, unto his glory, why am I also yet judged as a sinner?\n8 And not rather (as we are slandered, and as some affirm that we say) let us do evil, that there may come good? whose damnation is just.\n9 What then? Do we excel them? No, not so. For we have charged both Jews, and Greeks, that they are all under sin.\n10 As it is written: There is not any man just.\n11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.\n12 All have turned out of the way; they are become unprofitable together: there is none that doth good, there is not so much as one.\n13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have dealt deceitfully. The venom of asps is under their lips.\n14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:\n15 Their feet swift to shed blood:\n16 Destruction and misery in their ways:\n17 And the way of peace they have not known:\n18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.\n19 Now we know, that what things soever the law speaketh, it speaketh to them that are in the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may be made subject to God.\n20 Because by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified before him. For by the law is the knowledge of sin.\n21 But now without the law the justice of God is made manifest, being witnessed by the law and the prophets.\n22 Even the justice of God, by faith of Jesus Christ, unto all and upon all them that believe in him: for there is no distinction:\n23 For all have sinned, and do need the glory of God.\n24 Being justified freely by his grace, through the redemption, that is in Christ Jesus,\n25 Whom God hath proposed to be a propitiation, through faith in his blood, to the shewing of his justice, for the remission of former sins,\n26 Through the forbearance of God, for the shewing of his justice in this time; that he himself may be just, and the justifier of him, who is of the faith of Jesus Christ.\n27 Where is then thy boasting? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith.\n28 For we account a man to be justified by faith, without the works of the law.\n29 Is he the God of the Jews only? Is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also.\n30 For it is one God, that justifieth circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.\n31 Do we, then, destroy the law through faith?

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.

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.

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.

And the Philistines went up and burnt both the woman and her father.\n7 But Samson said to them: Although you have done this, yet will I be revenged of you, and then I will be quiet.\n8 And he made a great slaughter of them, so that in astonishment they laid the calf of the leg upon the thigh. And going down he dwelt in a cavern of the rock Etam.\n9 Then the Philistines going up into the land of Juda, camped in the place which afterwards was called Lechi, that is, the Jawbone, where their army was spread.\n10 And the men of the tribe of Juda said to them: Why are you come up against us? They answered: We are come to bind Samson, and to pay him for what he hath done against us.\n11 Wherefore three thousand men of Juda, went down to the cave of the rock Etam, and said to Samson: Knowest thou not that the Philistines rule over us? Why wouldst thou do thus? And he said to them: As they did to me, so have I done to them.\n12 And they said to him, We are come to bind thee and to deliver thee into the hands of the Philistines.

And he divided them so, that there were of the sons of Eleazar, sixteen chief men by their families: and of the sons of Ithamar eight by their families and houses.\n5 And he divided both the families one with the other by lot: for there were princes of the sanctuary, and princes of God, both of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.\n6 And Semeias the son of Nathanael the scribe a Levite, wrote them down before the king and the princes, and Sadoc the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and the princes also of the priestly and Levitical families: one house, which was over the rest, of Eleazar: and another house, which had the rest under it, of Ithamar.\n7 Now the first lot came forth to Joiarib, the second to Jedei,\n8 The third to Harim, the fourth to Seorim,\n9 The fifth to Melchia, the sixth to Maiman,\n10 The seventh to Accos, the eighth to Abia,\n11 The ninth to Jesua, the tenth to Sechenia,\n12 The eleventh to Eliasib, the twelfth to Jacim,\n13 The thirteenth to Hoppha, the fourteenth to Isbaab,\n14 The fifteenth to Belga, the sixteenth to Emmer,\n15 The seventeenth to Hezir, the eighteenth to Aphses,\n16 The nineteenth to Pheteia, the twentieth to Hezechiel,\n17 The one and twentieth to Jachin, the two and twentieth to Gamul,\n18 The three and twentieth to Dalaiau, the four and twentieth to Maaziau.\n19 These are their courses according to their ministries, to come into the house of the Lord, and according to their manner under the hand of Aaron their father: as the Lord the God of Israel had commanded.\n20 Now of the rest of the sons of Levi, there was of the sons of Amram, Subael: and of the sons of Subael, Jehedeia.\n21 Also of the sons of Rohobia the chief Jesias.\n22 And the son of Isaar Salemoth, and the son of Salemoth Jahath:\n23 And his son Jeriau the first, Amarias the second, Jahaziel the third, Jecmaan the fourth.\n24 The son of Oziel, Micha: the son of Micha, Samir.\n25 The brother of Micha, Jesia: and the son of Jesia, Zacharias.\n26 The sons of Merari: Moholi and Musi: the son of Oziau: Benno.\n27 The son also of Merari: Oziau, and Seam, and Zacchur, and Hebri.\n28 And the son of Moholi: Eleazar, who had no sons.\n29 And the son of Cis, Jeramael.\n30 The sons of Musi: Moholi, Eder, and Jerimoth.

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

mother, were apprehended, and compelled by the king to eat swine's flesh against the law, for which end they were tormented with whips and scourges.\n2 But one of them, who was the eldest, said thus: What wouldst thou ask, or learn of us? we are ready to die rather than to transgress the laws of God, received from our fathers.\n3 Then the king being angry commanded fryingpans, and brazen caldrons to be made hot: which forthwith being heated,\n4 He commanded to cut out the tongue of him that had spoken first: and the skin of his head being drawn off, to chop off also the extremities of his hands and feet, the rest of his brethren, and his mother, looking on.\n5 And when he was now maimed in all parts, he commanded him, being yet alive, to be brought to the fire, and to be fried in the fryingpan: and while he was suffering therein long torments, the rest, together with the mother, exhorted one another to die manfully,\n6 Saying: The Lord God will look upon the truth, and will take pleasure in us, as Moses declared in the profession of the canticle: And In his servants he will take pleasure.\n7 So when the first was dead after this manner, they brought the next to make him a, mocking stock: and when they had pulled off the skin of his head with the hair, they asked him if he would eat, before he were punished throughout the whole body in every limb.\n8 But he answered in his own language, and said: I will not do it. 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:\n29 So thou shalt not fear this tormentor, but being made a worthy partner with thy brethren, receive death, that in that mercy I may receive thee again with thy brethren.\n30 While she was yet speaking these words, the young man said: For whom do you stay?

Lo, we are now in the city of Cades, which is in the uttermost of thy borders,\n17 And we beseech thee that we may have leave to pass through thy country. We will not go through the fields, nor through the vineyards, we will not drink the waters of thy wells, but we will go by the common highway, neither turning aside to the right hand, nor to the left, till we are past thy borders.\n18 And Edom answered them: Thou shalt not pass by me: if thou dost I will come out armed against thee.\n19 And the children of Israel said: We will go by the beaten way: and if we and our cattle drink of thy waters, we will give thee what is just: there shall be no difficulty in the price, only let us pass speedily.\n20 But he answered: Thou shalt not pass. And immediately he came forth to meet them with an infinite multitude, and a strong hand,\n21 Neither would he condescend to their desire to grant them passage through his borders. Wherefore Israel turned another way from him.\n22 And when they had removed the camp from Cades, they came to mount Her, which is in the borders of the land of Edom:\n23 Where the Lord spoke to Moses:\n24 Let Aaron, saith he, go to his people: for he shall not go into the land which I have given the children of Israel, because he was incredulous to my words, at the waters of contradiction.\n25 Take Aaron and his son with him, and bring them up into mount Hor:\n26 And when thou hast stripped the father of his vesture, thou shalt vest therewith Eleazar his son: Aaron shall be gathered to his people, and die there.\n27 Moses did as the Lord had commanded: and they went up into mount Hor before all the multitude.\n28 And when he had stripped Aaron of his vestments, he vested Eleazar his son with them.\n29 And Aaron being dead in the top of the mountain, he came down with Eleazar.\n30 And all the multitude seeing that Aaron was dead, mourned for him thirty days throughout all their families.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and chapter does \"We will praise thee, O God: we will praise, and we will call upon thy name.

And withal consider that I am your bone, and your flesh.\n3 And his mother's brethren spoke of him to all the men of Sichem, all these words, and they inclined their hearts after Abimelech, saying: He is our brother:\n4 And they gave him seventy weight of silver out of the temple of Baalberith: wherewith he hired to himself men that were needy, and vagabonds, and they followed him.\n5 And he came to his father's house in Ephra, and slew his brethren the sons of Jerobaal, seventy men, upon one stone: and there remained only Joatham the youngest son of Jerobaal, who was hidden.\n6 And all the men of Sichem were gathered together, and all the families of the city of Mello: and they went and made Abimelech king, by the oak that stood in Sichem.\n7 This being told to Joatham, he went and stood on the top of mount Garizim: and lifting up his voice, he cried, and said: Hear me, ye men of Sichem, so may God hear you.\n8 The trees went to anoint a king over them: and they said to the olive tree: Reign thou over us.\n9 And it answered: Can I leave my fatness, which both gods and men make use of, to come to be promoted among the trees?\n10 And the trees said to the fig tree: Come thou and reign over us.\n11 And it answered them: Can I leave my sweetness, and my delicious fruits, and go to be promoted among the other trees?\n12 And the trees said to the vine: Come thou and reign over us.\n13 And it answered them: Can I forsake my wine, that cheereth God and men, and be promoted among the other trees?\n14 And all the trees said to the bramble: Come thou and reign over us.\n15 And it answered them: If indeed you mean to make me king, come ye and rest under my shadow: but if you mean it not, let fire come out from the bramble, and devour the cedars of Libanus.\n16 Now therefore if you have done well, and without sin in appointing Abimelech king over you, and have dealt well with Jerobaal, and with his house, and have made a suitable return for the benefits of him, who fought for you,\n17 And exposed his life to dangers, to deliver you from the hands of Madian,\n18 And you are now risen up against my father's house, and have killed his sons seventy men upon one stone, and have made Abimelech the son of his handmaid king over the inhabitants of Sichem, because he is your brother:\n19 If therefore you have dealt well, and without fault with Jerobaal, and his house, rejoice ye this day in Abimelech, and may he rejoice in you.\n20 But if unjustly: let fire come out from him, and consume the inhabitants of Sichem, and the town of Mello: and let fire come out from the men of Sichem, and from the town of Mello, and devour Abimelech.\n21 And when he had said thus he fled, and went into Bera: and dwelt there for fear of Abimelech his brother.\n22 So Abimelech reigned over Israel for three years.\n23 And the Lord sent a very evil spirit between Abimelech and the inhabitants of Sichem: who began to detest him,\n24 And to leave the crime of the murder of the seventy sons of Jerobaal, and the shedding of their blood upon Abimelech their brother, and upon the rest of the princes of the Sichemites, who aided him.\n25 And they set an ambush against him on the top of the mountains: and while they waited for his coming, they committed robberies, taking spoils of all that passed by: and it was told Abimelech.\n26 And Gaal the son of Obed came with his brethren, and went over to Sichem. And the inhabitants of Sichem taking courage at his coming,\n27 Went out into the fields, wasting the vineyards, and treading down the grapes: and singing and dancing they went into the temple of their god, and in their banquets and cups they cursed Abimelech.\n28 And Gaal the son of Obed cried: Who is Abimelech, and what is Sichem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerobaal, and hath made Zebul his servant ruler over the men of Emor the father of Sichem? Why then shall we serve him?\n29 Would to God that some man would put this people under my hand, that I might remove Abimelech out of the way. And it was said to Abimelech: Gather together the multitude of an army, and come.\n30 For Zebul the ruler of the city, hearing the words of Gaal, the son of Obed, was very angry,\n31 And sent messengers privately to Abimelech, saying: Behold Gaal the son of Obed is come into Sichem with his brethren, and endeavoureth to set the city against thee.\n32 Arise therefore in the night with the people that is with thee and he hid in the field:\n33 And betimes in the morning at sun rising set upon the city. And when he shall come out against thee with his people, do to him what thou shalt be able.\n34 Abimelech therefore arose with all his army by night, and laid ambushes near Sichem in four places.\n35 And Gaal the son of Obed went out, and stood in the entrance of the gate of the city. And Abimelech rose up, and all his army with him from the places of the ambushes.\n36 And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul: Behold a multitude cometh down from the mountains. And he answered him: Thou seest the shadows of the mountains as if they were the heads of men, and this is thy mistake.\n37 Again Gaal said: Behold there cometh people down from the middle of the land, and one troop cometh by the way that looketh towards the oak.\n38 And Zebul said to him: Where is now thy mouth wherewith thou saidst? Who is Abimelech that we should serve him? Is not this the people which thou didst despise? Go out, and fight against him.\n39 So Gaal went out in the sight of the people of Sichem, and fought against Abimelech,\n40 Who chased and put him to flight, and drove him to the city: and many were slain of his people, even to the gate of the city:\n41 And Abimelech sat down in Ruma: but Zebul drove Gaal, and his companions out of the city, and would not suffer them to abide in it.\n42 So the day following the people went out into the field. And it was told Abimelech.\n43 And he took his army, and divided it into three companies, and laid ambushes in the fields. And seeing that the people came out of the city, he arose and set upon them,\n44 With his own company, assaulting and besieging the city: whilst the two other companies chased the enemies that were scattered about the field.\n45 And Abimelech assaulted the city all that day: and took it, and killed the inhabitants thereof, and demolished it, so that he sowed salt in it.\n46 And when they who dwelt in the tower of Sichem had heard this, they went into the temple of their god Berith where they had made a covenant with him, and from thence the place had taken its name, and it was exceeding strong.\n47 Abimelech also hearing that the men of the tower of Sichem were gathered together,\n48 Went up into mount Selmon he and all his people with him: and taking an axe, he cut down the bough of a tree, and laying it on his shoulder and carrying it, he said to his companions: What you see me do, do you out of hand.\n49 So they cut down boughs from the trees, every man as fast as he could, and followed their leader. And surrounding the fort they set it on fire: and so it came to pass that with the smoke and with the fire a thousand persons were killed, men and women together, of the inhabitants of the tower of Sichem.\n50 Then Abimelech departing from thence came to the town of Thebes, which he surrounded and besieged with his army.\n51 And there was in the midst of the city a high tower, to which both the men and the women were fled together, and all the princes of the city, and having shut and strongly barred the gate, they stood upon the battlements of the tower to defend themselves.\n52 And Abimelech coming near the tower, fought stoutly: and approaching to the gate, endeavoured to set fire to it:\n53 And behold a certain woman casting a piece of a millstone from above, dashed it against the head of Abimelech, and broke his skull.\n54 And he called hastily to his armourbearer, and said to him: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest it should be said that I was slain by a woman. He did as he was commanded, and slew him.\n55 And when he was dead, all the men of Israel that were with him, returned to their homes.\n56 And God repaid the evil, that Abimelech had done against his father, killing his seventy brethren.\n57 The Sichemites also were rewarded for what they had done, and the curse of Joatham the son of Jerobaal came upon them.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"And all the people rejoiced, with the women, and virgins, and young men, playing on instruments and harps.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book Judith, chapter 15.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\nJudith Chapter 15\n1 And when all the army heard that Holofernes was beheaded, courage and counsel fled from them, and being seized with trembling and fear they thought only to save themselves by flight:\n2 So that no one spoke to his neighbour, but hanging down the head, leaving all things behind, they made haste to escape from the Hebrews, who, as they heard, were coming armed upon them, and fled by the ways of the fields, and the paths of the hills.\n3 So the children of Israel seeing them fleeing, followed after them.

Moreover Helcias, and Zacharias, and Jahiel rulers of the house of the Lord, gave to the priests to keep the phase two thousand six hundred small cattle, and three hundred oxen.\n9 And Chonenias, and Semeias and Nathanael, his brethren, and Hasabias, and Jehiel, and Jozabad princes of the Levites, gave to the rest of the Levites to celebrate the phase five thousand small cattle, and five hundred oxen.\n10 And the ministry was prepared, and the priests stood in their office: the Levites also in their companies, according to the king's commandment.\n11 And the phase was immolated: and the priests sprinkled the blood with their hand, and the Levites flayed the holocausts:\n12 And they separated them to give them by the houses and families of every one, and to be offered to the Lord, as it is written in the book of Moses, and with the oxen they did in like manner.\n13 And they roasted the phase with fire, according to that which is written in the law: but the victims of peace offerings they boiled in caldrons, and kettles, and pots, and they distributed them speedily among all the people.\n14 And afterwards they made ready for themselves, and for the priests: for the priests were busied in offering of holocausts and the fat until night: wherefore the Levites prepared for themselves, and for the priests the sons of Aaron last.\n15 And the singers the sons of Asaph stood in their order, according to the commandment of David, and Asaph, and Heman, and Idithun the prophets of the king: and the porters kept guard at every gate, so as not to depart one moment from their service: and therefore their brethren the Levites prepared meats for them.\n16 So all the service of the Lord was duly accomplished that day, both in keeping the phase, and offering holocausts upon the altar of the Lord, according to the commandment of king Josias.\n17 And the children of Israel that were found there, kept the phase at that time, and the feast of unleavened bread seven days.\n18 There was no phase like to this in Israel, from the days of Samuel the prophet: neither did any of all the kings of Israel keep such a phase as Josias kept, with the priests, and the Levites, and all Juda, and Israel that were found, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.\n19 In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josias was this phase celebrated.\n20 After that Josias had repaired the temple, Nechao king of Egypt came up to fight in Charcamis by the Euphrates: and Josias went out to meet him.\n21 But he sent messengers to him, saying: What have I to do with thee, O king of Juda?

So two and twenty thousand men went away from mount Galaad and returned home, and only ten thousand remained.\n4 And the Lord said to Gedeon: The people are still too many, bring them to the waters, and there I will try them: and of whom I shall say to thee, This shall go with thee, let him go: whom I shall forbid to go, let him return.\n5 And when the people were come down to the waters, the Lord said to Gedeon: They that shall lap the water with their tongues, as dogs are wont to lap, thou shalt set apart by themselves: but they that shall drink bowing down their knees, shall be on the other side.\n6 And the number of them that had lapped water, casting it with the hand to their mouth, was three hundred men: and all the rest of the multitude had drunk kneeling.\n7 And the Lord said to Gedeon: By the three hundred men, that lapped water, I will save you, and deliver Madian into thy hand: but let all the rest of the people return to their place.\n8 So taking victuals and trumpets according to their number, he ordered all the rest of the multitude to depart to their tents: and he with the three hundred gave himself to the battle. Now the camp of Madian was beneath him in the valley.\n9 The same night the Lord said to him: Arise, and go down into the camp: because I have delivered them into thy hand.\n10 But if thou be afraid to go alone, let Phara thy servant go down with thee.\n11 And when thou shalt hear what they are saying, then shall thy hands be strengthened, and thou shalt go down more secure to the enemies' camp.

For the Lord hath delivered Madian, and all their camp into his hand.\n15 And when Gedeon had heard the dream, and the interpretation thereof, he adored: and returned to the camp of Israel, and said: Arise, for the Lord hath delivered the camp of Madian into our hands.\n16 And he divided the three hundred men into three parts, and gave them trumpets in their hands, and empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.\n17 And he said to them: What you shall see me do, do you the same: I will go into one part of the camp, and do you as I shall do.\n18 When the trumpet shall sound in my hand, do you also blow the trumpets on every side of the camp.\n19 And Gedeon, and the three hundred men that were with him, went into part of the camp, at the beginning of the midnight watch, and the watchmen being alarmed, they began to sound their trumpets, and to clap the pitchers one against another.\n20 And when they sounded their trumpets in three places round about the camp, and had broken their pitchers, they held their lamps in their left hands, and with their right hands the trumpets which they blew, and they cried out: The sword of the Lord and of Gedeon;\n21 Standing every man in his place round about the enemies' camp.

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

chapter 10.\n\nTake a look at the whole chapter:\n1 Maccabees Chapter 10\n1 Now in the hundred and sixtieth year Alexander the son 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.\n34 And I will that all the feasts, and the sabbaths, and the new moons, and the days appointed, and three days before the solemn day, and three days after the solemn day, be all days of immunity and freedom, for all the Jews that are in my kingdom:\n35 And no man shall have power to do any thing against them, or to molest any of them, in any cause.\n36 And let there be enrolled in the king's army to the number of thirty thousand of the Jews: and allowance shall be made them as is due to all the king's forces, and certain of them shall be appointed to be in the fortresses of the great king:\n37 And some of them shall be set over the affairs of the kingdom, that are of trust, and let the governors be taken from among themselves, and let them walk in their own laws, as the king hath commanded in the land of Juda.\n38 And the three cities that are added to Judea, out of the country of Samaria, let them be accounted with Judea: that they may be under one, and obey no other authority but that of the high priest:\n39 Ptolemais, and the confines thereof, I give as a free gift to the holy places, that are in Jerusalem, for the necessary charges of the holy things.\n40 And I give every year fifteen thousand sicles of silver out of the king's accounts, of what belongs to me:\n41 And all that is above, which they that were over the affairs the years before, had not paid, from this time they shall give it to the works of the house.\n42 Moreover the five thousand sicles of silver which they received from the account of the holy places, every year, shall also belong to the priests that execute the ministry.\n43 And whosoever shall flee into the temple that is in Jerusalem, and in all the borders thereof, being indebted to the king for any matter, let them be set at liberty, and all that they have in my kingdom, let them have it free.\n44 For the building also, or repairing the works of the holy places, the charges shall be given out of the king's revenues:\n45 For the building also of the walls of Jerusalem, and the fortifying thereof round about, the charges shall be given out of the king's account, as also for the building of the walls in Judea.\n46 Now when Jonathan, and the people heard these words, they gave no credit to them nor received them: because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel, for he had afflicted them exceedingly.\n47 And their inclinations were towards Alexander, because he had been the chief promoter of peace in their regard, and him they always helped.\n48 And king Alexander gathered together a great army, and moved his camp near to Demetrius.\n49 And the two kings joined battle, and the army of Demetrius fled away, and Alexander pursued after him, and pressed them close.\n50 And the battle was hard fought till the sun went down: and Demetrius was slain that day.\n51 And Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemee king of Egypt, with words to this effect, saying:\n52 Forasmuch as I am returned into my kingdom, and am set in the throne of my ancestors and have gotten the dominion, and have overthrown Demetrius, and possessed our country,\n53 And have joined battle with him, and both he and his army have been destroyed by us, and we are placed in the throne of his kingdom:\n54 Now therefore let us make friendship one with another: and give me now thy daughter to wife, and I will be thy son in law, and I will give both thee and her gifts worthy of thee.\n55 And king Ptolemee answered, saying: Happy is the day wherein thou didst return to the land of thy fathers, and sattest in the throne of their kingdom.\n56 And now I will do to thee as thou hast written: but meet me at Ptolemais, that we may see one another, and I may give her to thee as thou hast said.\n57 So Ptolemee went out of Egypt, with Cleopatra his daughter, and he came to Ptolemais in the hundred and sixty-second year.\n58 And king Alexander met him, and he gave him his daughter Cleopatra: and he celebrated her marriage at Ptolemais, with great glory, after the manner of kings.\n59 And king Alexander wrote to Jonathan, that he should come and meet him.\n60 And he went honourably to Ptolemais, and he met there the two kings, and he gave them much silver, and gold, and presents: and he found favour in their sight.\n61 And some pestilent men of Israel, men of a wicked life, assembled themselves against him to accuse him: and the king gave no heed to them.\n62 And he commanded that Jonathan's garments should be taken off, and that he should be clothed with purple: and they did so. And the king made him sit by himself.\n63 And he said to his princes: Go out with him into the midst of the city, and make proclamation, that no man complain against him of any matter, and that no man trouble him for any manner of cause.\n64 So when his accusers saw his glory proclaimed, and him clothed with purple, they all fled away.\n65 And the king magnified him, and enrolled him amongst his chief friends, and made him governor and partaker of his dominion.\n66 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with peace and joy.\n67 In the year one hundred and sixty-five Demetrius the son of Demetrius came from Crete into the land of his fathers.\n68 And king Alexander heard of it, and was much troubled, and returned to Antioch.\n69 And king Demetrius made Apollonius his general, who was governor of Celesyria: and he gathered together a great army, and came to Jamnia: and he sent to Jonathan the high priest,\n70 Saying: Thou alone standest against us, and I am laughed at, and reproached, because thou shewest thy power against us in the mountains.\n71 Now therefore if thou trustest in thy forces, come down to us into the plain, and there let us try one another: for with me is the strength of war.\n72 Ask, and learn who I am, and the rest that help me, who also say that your foot cannot stand before our face, for thy fathers have twice been put to flight in their own land:\n73 And now how wilt thou be able to abide the horsemen, and so great an army in the plain, where there is no stone, nor rock, nor place to flee to?\n74 Now when Jonathan heard the words of Apollonius, he was moved in his mind: and he chose ten thousand men, and went out of Jerusalem, and Simon his brother met him to help him.\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.

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

But he answered and said to him: Not so: but thou shalt give it me now, or else I will take it by force.\n17 Wherefore the sin of the young men was exceeding great before the Lord: because they withdrew men from the sacrifice of the Lord.\n18 But Samuel ministered before the face of the Lord: being a child girded with a linen ephod.\n19 And his mother made him a little coat, which she brought to him on the appointed days, when she went up with her husband, to offer the solemn sacrifice.\n20 And Heli blessed Elcana and his wife: and he said to him: The Lord give thee seed of this woman, for the loan thou hast lent to the Lord.

She that was free is made a slave.\n12 And behold our sanctuary, and our beauty, and our glory is laid waste, and the Gentiles have defiled them.\n13 To what end then should we live any longer?\n14 And Mathathias and his sons rent their garments, and they covered themselves with haircloth, and made great lamentation.\n15 And they that were sent from king Antiochus came thither, to compel them that were fled into the city of Modin, to sacrifice, and to burn incense, and to depart from the law of God.\n16 And many of the people of Israel consented, and came to them: but Mathathias and his sons stood firm.\n17 And they that were sent from Antiochus, answering, said to Mathathias: Thou art a ruler, and an honourable, and great man in this city, and adorned with sons, and brethren.\n18 Therefore come thou first, and obey the king's commandment, as all nations have done, and the men of Juda, and they that remain in Jerusalem: and thou, and thy sons, shall be in the number of the king's friends, and enriched with gold, and silver, and many presents.\n19 Then Mathathias answered, and said with a loud voice: Although all nations obey king Antiochus, so as to depart every man from the service of the law of his fathers, and consent to his commandments:\n20 I and my sons, and my brethren will obey the law of our fathers.\n21 God be merciful unto us: it is not profitable for us to forsake the law, and the justices of God:\n22 We will not hearken to the words of king Antiochus, neither will we sacrifice, and transgress the commandments of our law, to go another way.\n23 Now as he left off speaking these words, there came a certain Jew in the sight of all to sacrifice to the idols upon the altar in the city of Modin, according to the king's commandment.\n24 And Mathathias saw and was grieved, and his reins trembled, and his wrath was kindled according to the judgment of the law, and running upon him he slew him upon the altar:\n25 Moreover the man whom king Antiochus had sent, who compelled them to sacrifice, he slew at the same time, and pulled down the altar.\n26 And shewed zeal for the law, as Phinees did by Zamri the son of Salomi.\n27 And Mathathias cried out in the city with a loud voice, saying: Every one that hath zeal for the law, and maintaineth the testament, let him follow me.\n28 So he, and his sons fled into the mountains, and left all that they had in the city.\n29 Then many that sought after judgment, and justice, went down into the desert:\n30 And they abode there, they and their children, and their wives, and their cattle: because afflictions increased upon them.\n31 And it was told to the king's men, and to the army that was in Jerusalem in the city of David, that certain men who had broken the king's commandment, were gone away into the secret places in the wilderness, and that many were gone after them.\n32 And forthwith they went out towards them, and made war against them on the sabbath day,\n33 And they said to them: Do you still resist? come forth, and do according to the edict of king Antiochus, and you shall live.\n34 And they said: We will not come forth, neither will we obey the king's edict, to profane the sabbath day.\n35 And they made haste to give them battle.\n36 But they answered them not, neither did they cast a stone at them, nor stopped up the secret places,\n37 Saying: Let us all die in our innocency: and heaven and earth shall be witnesses for us, that you put us to death wrongfully.\n38 So they gave them battle on the sabbath: and they were slain with their wives, and their children, and their cattle, to the number of a thousand persons.\n39 And Mathathias and his friends heard of it, and they mourned for them exceedingly.\n40 And every man said to his neighbour: If we shall all do as our brethren have done, and not fight against the heathens for our lives, and our justifications: they will now quickly root us out of the earth.\n41 And they determined in that day, saying: Whosoever shall come up against us to fight on the sabbath day, we will fight against him: and we will not all die, as our brethren that were slain in the secret places.\n42 Then was assembled to them the congregation of the Assideans, the stoutest of Israel, every one that had a good will for the law.\n43 And all they that fled from the evils, joined themselves to them, and were a support to them.\n44 And they gathered an army, and slew the sinners in their wrath, and the wicked men in their indignation: and the rest fled to the nations for safety.\n45 And Mathathias and his friends went round about, and they threw down the altars:\n46 And they circumcised all the children whom they found in the confines of Israel that were uncircumcised: and they did valiantly.\n47 And they pursued after the children of pride, and the work prospered in their hands:\n48 And they recovered the law out of the hands of the nations, and out of the hands of the kings: and they yielded not the horn to the sinner.\n49 Now the days drew near that Mathathias should die, and he said to his sons: Now hath pride and chastisement gotten strength, and the time of destruction, and the wrath of indignation:\n50 Now therefore, O my sons, be ye zealous for the law, and give your lives for the covenant of your fathers.\n51 And call to remembrance the works of the fathers, which they have done in their generations: and you shall receive great glory, and an everlasting name.\n52 Was not Abraham found faithful in temptation, and it was reputed to him unto justice?\n53 Joseph in the time of his distress kept the commandment, and he was made lord of Egypt.\n54 Phinees our father, by being fervent in the zeal of God, received the covenant of an everlasting priesthood.\n55 Jesus, whilst he fulfilled the word, was made ruler in Israel.\n56 Caleb, for bearing witness before the congregation, received an inheritance.\n57 David by his mercy obtained the throne of an everlasting kingdom.\n58 Elias, while he was full of zeal for the law, was taken up into heaven.\n59 Ananias and Azarias and Misael by believing, were delivered out of the flame.\n60 Daniel in his innocency was delivered out of the mouth of the lions.\n61 And thus consider through all generations: that none that trust in him fail in strength.\n62 And fear not the words of a sinful man, for his glory is dung, and worms:\n63 To day he is lifted up, and to morrow he shall not be found, because he is returned into his earth; and his thought is come to nothing.\n64 You therefore, my sons, take courage, and behave manfully in the law: for by it you shall be glorious.\n65 And behold, I know that your brother Simon is a man of counsel: give ear to him always, and he shall be a father to you.\n66 And Judas Machabeus who is valiant and strong from his youth up, let him be the leader of your army, and he shall manage the war of the people.\n67 And you shall take to you all that observe the law: and revenge ye the wrong of your people.\n68 Render to the Gentiles their reward, and take heed to the precepts of the law.\n69 And he blessed them, and was joined to his fathers.\n70 And he died in the

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

And the Philistines came to Aphec,\n2 And put their army in array against Israel. And when they had joined battle, Israel turned their backs to the Philistines, and there was slain in that fight here and there in the fields about four thousand men.\n3 And the people returned to the camp: and the ancients of Israel said: Why hath the Lord defeated us to day before the Philistines? Let us fetch unto us the ark of the covenant of the Lord from Silo, and let it come in the midst of us, that it may save us from the hand of our enemies.\n4 So the people sent to Silo, and they brought from thence the ark of the covenant of the Lord of hosts sitting upon the cherubims: and the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were with the ark of the covenant of God.\n5 And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord was come into the camp, all Israel shouted with a great shout, and the earth rang again.\n6 And the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, and they said: What is this noise of a great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of the Lord was come into the camp.\n7 And the Philistines were afraid, saying: God is come into the camp. And sighing, they said:\n8 Woe to us: for there was no such great joy yesterday and the day before: Woe to us. Who shall deliver us from the hand of these high gods? these are the gods that struck Egypt with all the plagues in the desert.\n9 Take courage and behave like men, ye Philistines: lest you come to be servants to the Hebrews, as they have served you: take courage and fight.\n10 So the Philistines fought, and Israel was overthrown, and every man fled to his own dwelling: and there was an exceeding great slaughter; for there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen.\n11 And the ark of God was taken: and the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were slain.\n12 And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the army, and came to Silo the same day, with his clothes rent, and his head strewed with dust.\n13 And when he was come, Heli sat upon a stool over against the way watching. For his heart was fearful for the ark of God. And when the man was come into the city, he told it: and all the city cried out.\n14 And Heli heard the noise of the cry, and he said: What meaneth the noise of this uproar?

Now there was a certain man named Simon, who before had been a magician in that city, seducing the people of Samaria, giving out that he was some great one:\n10 To whom they all gave ear, from the least to the greatest, saying: This man is the power of God, which is called great.\n11 And they were attentive to him, because, for a long time, he had bewitched them with his magical practices.\n12 But when they had believed Philip preaching of the kingdom of God, in the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.\n13 Then Simon himself believed also; and being baptized, he adhered to Philip. And being astonished, wondered to see the signs and exceeding great miracles which were done.\n14 Now when the apostles, who were in Jerusalem, had heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John.\n15 Who, when they were come, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost.\n16 For he was not as yet come upon any of them; but they were only baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.\n17 Then they laid their hands upon them, and they received the Holy Ghost.\n18 And when Simon saw, that by the imposition of the hands of the apostles, the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,\n19 Saying: Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I shall lay my hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost. But Peter said to him:\n20 Keep thy money to thyself, to perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.\n21 Thou hast no part nor lot in this matter. For thy heart is not right in the sight of God.\n22 Do penance therefore for this thy wickedness; and pray to God, that perhaps this thought of thy heart may be forgiven thee.\n23 For I see thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bonds of iniquity.\n24 Then Simon answering, said: Pray you for me to the Lord, that none of these things which you have spoken may come upon me.\n25 And they indeed having testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel to many countries of the Samaritans.\n26 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.\n27 And rising up, he went. And behold a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch, of great authority under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge over all her treasures, had come to Jerusalem to adore.\n28 And he was returning, sitting in his chariot, and reading Isaias the prophet.\n29 And the Spirit said to Philip: Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.\n30 And Philip running thither, heard him reading the prophet Isaias. And he said: Thinkest thou that thou understandest what thou readest?\n31 Who said: And how can I, unless some man shew me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.\n32 And the place of the scripture which he was reading was this: He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb without voice before his shearer, so openeth he not his mouth.\n33 In humility his judgment was taken away. His generation who shall declare, for his life shall be taken from the earth?\n34 And the eunuch answering Philip, said: I beseech thee, of whom doth the prophet speak this? of himself, or of some other man?\n35 Then Philip, opening his mouth, and beginning at this scripture, preached unto him Jesus.\n36 And as they went on their way, they came to a certain water; and the eunuch said: See, here is water: what doth hinder me from being baptized?\n37 And Philip said: If thou believest with all thy heart, thou mayest. And he answering, said: I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.\n38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still; and they went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch: and he baptized him.\n39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord took away Philip; and the eunuch saw him no more.

And his hand which he stretched forth against him withered: and he was not able to draw it back again to him.\n5 The altar also was rent, and the ashes were poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given before in the word of the Lord.\n6 And the king said to the man of God: Entreat the face of the Lord thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me. 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.\n18 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": "Where exactly in the Bible is \"Thus saith Sennacherib king of the Assyrians: In whom do you trust, that you sit still besieged in Jerusalem?\" written?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"Thus saith Sennacherib king of the Assyrians: In whom do you trust, that you sit still besieged in Jerusalem?\" is written in 2 Chronicles 32:10, within the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does 2 Corinthians chapter 10 verse 7 say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from 2 Corinthians 10:7, New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"See the things that are according to outward appearance.

And Moses being terrified, durst not behold.\n33 And the Lord said to him: Loose the shoes from thy feet, for the place wherein thou standest, is holy ground.\n34 Seeing I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, and I will send thee into Egypt.\n35 This Moses, whom they refused, saying: Who hath appointed thee prince and judge? him God sent to be prince and redeemer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.\n36 He brought them out, doing wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red Sea, and in the desert forty years.\n37 This is that Moses who said to the children of Israel: A prophet shall God raise up to you of your own brethren, as myself: him shall you hear.\n38 This is he that was in the church in the wilderness, with the angel who spoke to him on mount Sina, and with our fathers; who received the words of life to give unto us.\n39 Whom our fathers would not obey; but thrust him away, and in their hearts turned back into Egypt,\n40 Saying to Aaron: Make us gods to go before us. For as for this Moses, who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him.\n41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifices to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.\n42 And God turned, and gave them up to serve the host of heaven, as it is written in the books of the prophets: Did you offer victims and sacrifices to me for forty years, in the desert, O house of Israel?\n43 And you took unto you the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Rempham, figures which you made to adore them. And I will carry you away beyond Babylon.\n44 The tabernacle of the testimony was with our fathers in the desert, as God ordained for them, speaking to Moses, that he should make it according to the form which he had seen.\n45 Which also our fathers receiving, brought in with Jesus, into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David.\n46 Who found grace before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.\n47 But Solomon built him a house.\n48 Yet the most High dwelleth not in houses made by hands, as the prophet saith:\n49 Heaven is my throne, and the earth my footstool. What house will you build me? saith the Lord; or what is the place of my resting?\n50 Hath not my hand made all these things?\n51 You stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do you also.\n52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? And they have slain them who foretold of the coming of the Just One; of whom you have been now the betrayers and murderers:\n53 Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it.\n54 Now hearing these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed with their teeth at him.\n55 But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looking up steadfastly to heaven, saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God. And he said: Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.\n56 And they crying out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and with one accord ran violently upon him.\n57 And casting him forth without the city, they stoned him; and the witnesses laid down their garments at the feet of a young man, whose name was Saul.\n58 And they stoned Stephen, invoking, and saying: Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.\n59 And falling on his knees, he cried with a loud voice, saying: Lord, lay not this sin to their charge.

And when he would have gone into her chamber as usual, her father would not suffer him, saying:\n2 I thought thou hadst hated her, and therefore I gave her to thy friend: but she hath a sister, who is younger and fairer than she, take her to wife instead of her.\n3 And Samson answered him: From this day I shall be blameless in what I do against the Philistines: for I will do you evils.\n4 And he went and caught three hundred foxes, and coupled them tail to tail, and fastened torches between the tails.\n5 And setting them on fire he let the foxes go, that they might run about hither and thither. And they presently went into the standing corn of the Philistines. Which being set on fire, both the corn that was already carried together, and that which was yet standing, was all burnt, insomuch, that the flame consumed also the vineyards and the oliveyards.\n6 Then the Philistines said: Who hath done this thing? And it was answered: Samson the son in law of the Thamnathite, because he took away his wife, and gave her to another, hath done these things. And the Philistines went up and burnt both the woman and her father.\n7 But Samson said to them: Although you have done this, yet will I be revenged of you, and then I will be quiet.\n8 And he made a great slaughter of them, so that in astonishment they laid the calf of the leg upon the thigh. And going down he dwelt in a cavern of the rock Etam.\n9 Then the Philistines going up into the land of Juda, camped in the place which afterwards was called Lechi, that is, the Jawbone, where their army was spread.\n10 And the men of the tribe of Juda said to them: Why are you come up against us? They answered: We are come to bind Samson, and to pay him for what he hath done against us.\n11 Wherefore three thousand men of Juda, went down to the cave of the rock Etam, and said to Samson: Knowest thou not that the Philistines rule over us? Why wouldst thou do thus? And he said to them: As they did to me, so have I done to them.\n12 And they said to him, We are come to bind thee and to deliver thee into the hands of the Philistines. And Samson said to them: Swear to me, and promise me, that you will not kill me.\n13 They said: We will not kill thee: but we will deliver thee up bound. And they bound him with two new cords, and brought him from the rock Etam.\n14 Now when he was come to the place of the Jawbone, and the Philistines shouting went to meet him, the spirit of the Lord came strongly upon him: and as the flax is wont to be consumed at the approach of fire, so the bands with which he was bound were broken and loosed.\n15 And finding a jawbone, even the jawbone of an ass which lay there, catching it up, be slew therewith a thousand men.\n16 And he said: With the jawbone of an ass, with the jaw of the colt of asses I have destroyed them, and have slain a thousand men.\n17 And when he had ended these words singing, he threw the jawbone out of his hand, and called the name of that place Ramathlechi, which is interpreted the lifting up of the jawbone.\n18 Arid being very thirsty, he cried to the Lord, and said: Thou hast given this very great deliverance and victory into the hand of thy servant: and behold I die for thirst, and shall fall into the hands of the uncircumcised.\n19 Then the Lord opened a great tooth in the jaw of the ass, and waters issued out of it. And when he had drank them he refreshed his spirit, and recovered his strength. Therefore the name of that place was called, The Spring of him that invoked from the jawbone, until this present day.\n20 And he judged Israel in the days of the Philistines twenty years.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Tell me what Mark 5:38 says", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Mark 5:38, New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And they come to the house of the ruler of the synagogue;

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?

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.

And Jesus saith to Simon: Fear not: from henceforth thou shalt catch men.\n11 And having brought their ships to land, leaving all things, they followed him.\n12 And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy, who seeing Jesus, and falling on his face, besought him, saying: Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.\n13 And stretching forth his hand, he touched him, saying: I will. Be thou cleansed. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.\n14 And he charged him that he should tell no man, but, Go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing according as Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.\n15 But the fame of him went abroad the more, and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.\n16 And he retired into the desert, and prayed.\n17 And it came to pass on a certain day, as he sat teaching, that there were also Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, that were come out of every town of Galilee, and Judea and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was to heal them.\n18 And behold, men brought in a bed a man, who had the palsy: and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him.\n19 And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in, because of the multitude, they went up upon the roof, and let him down through the tiles with his bed into the midst before Jesus.\n20 Whose faith when he saw, he said: Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.\n21 And the scribes and Pharisees began to think, saying: Who is this who speaketh blasphemies? 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. And they were filled with fear, saying: We have seen wonderful things to day.\n27 And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom, and he said to him: Follow me.\n28 And leaving all things, he rose up and followed him.\n29 And Levi made him a great feast in his own house; and there was a great company of publicans, and of others, that were at table with them.\n30 But the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying to his disciples: Why do you eat and drink with publicans and sinners?\n31 And Jesus answering, said to them: They that are whole, need not the physician: but they that are sick.\n32 I came not to call the just, but sinners to penance.\n33 And they said to him: Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and the disciples of the Pharisees in like manner; but thine eat and drink?\n34 To whom he said: Can you make the children of the bridegroom fast, whilst the bridegroom is with them?\n35 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, then shall they fast in those days.\n36 And he spoke also a similitude to them: That no man putteth a piece from a new garment upon an old garment; otherwise he both rendeth the new, and the piece taken from the new agreeth not with the old.\n37 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: otherwise the new wine will break the bottles, and it will be spilled, and the bottles will be lost.\n38 But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.\n39 And no man drinking old, hath presently a mind to new: for he saith, The old is better.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"And out of the thirty thousand five hundred asses,\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That verse comes from Numbers, chapter 31.\n\nCheck out the whole chapter:\nNumbers Chapter 31\n1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n2 Revenge first the children of Israel on the Madianites, and so thou shalt be gathered to thy people.\n3 And Moses forthwith said: Arm of you men to fight, who may take the revenge of the Lord on the Madianites.\n4 Let a thousand men be chosen out of every tribe of Israel to be sent to the war.\n5 And they gave a thousand of every tribe, that is to say, twelve thousand men well appointed for battle.\n6 And Moses sent them with Phinees the son of Eleazar the priest, and he delivered to him the holy vessels, and the trumpets to sound.\n7 And when they had fought against the Madianites and had overcome them, they slew all the men.\n8 And their kings Evi, and Recem, and Sur, and Hur, and Rebe, five princes of the nation: Balaam also the son of Beer they killed with the sword.\n9 And they took their women, and their children captives, and all their cattle, and all their goods: and all their possessions they plundered:\n10 And all their cities, and their villages, and castles, they burned.\n11 And they carried away the booty, and all that they had taken both of men and of beasts.\n12 And they brought them to Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and to all the multitude of the children of Israel. But the rest of the things for use they carried to the camp on the plains of Moab, beside the Jordan over against Jericho.\n13 And Moses and Eleazar the priest and all the princes of the synagogue went forth to meet them without the camp.\n14 And Moses being angry with the chief officers of the army, the tribunes, and the centurions that were come from the battle,\n15 Said: Why have you saved the women?\n16 Are not these they, that deceived the children of Israel by the counsel of Balaam, and made you transgress against the Lord by the sin of Phogor, for which also the people was punished?\n17 Therefore kill all that are of the male sex, even of the children: and put to death the women, that have carnally known men.\n18 But the girls, and all the women that are virgins save for yourselves:\n19 And stay without the camp seven days.

commanded Moses:\n22 Gold, and silver, and brass, and iron, and lend, and tin,\n23 And all that may pass through the fire, shall be purified by fire, but whatsoever cannot abide the fire, shall be sanctified with the water of expiation:\n24 And you shall wash your garments the seventh day, and being purified, you shall afterwards enter into the camp.\n25 And the Lord said to Moses:\n26 Take the sum of the things that were taken both of man and beast, thou and Eleazar the priest and the princes of the multitude:\n27 And thou shalt divide the spoil equally, between them that fought and went out to the war, and between the rest of the multitude.\n28 And thou shalt separate a portion to the Lord from them that fought and were in the battle, one soul of five hundred as well of persons as of oxen and asses and sheep.\n29 And thou shalt give it to Eleazar the priest, because they are the firstfruits of the Lord.\n30 Out of the moiety also of the children of Israel thou shalt take the

thirty-two thousand persons of the female sex, that had not known men.\n36 And one half was given to them that had been in the battle, to wit, three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred

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.

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

And quickly she let down the pitcher upon her arm, and gave him drink.\n19 And when he had drunk, she said: I will draw water for thy camels also, till they all drink.\n20 And pouring out the pitcher into the troughs, she ran back to the well to draw water: and having drawn she gave to all the camels.\n21 But he musing beheld her with silence, desirous to know whether the Lord had made his journey prosperous or not.\n22 And after that the camels had drunk, the man took out golden earrings, weighing two sicles: and as many bracelets of ten sicles weight.\n23 And he said to her: Whose daughter art thou? tell me: is there any place in thy father's house to lodge?\n24 And she answered: I am the daughter of Bathuel, the son of Melcha, whom she bore to Nachor.\n25 And she said moreover to him: We have good store of both straw and hay, and a large place to lodge in.\n26 The man bowed himself down, and adored the Lord,\n27 Saying: Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, who hath not taken away his mercy and truth from my master, and hath brought me the straight way into the house of my master's brother.\n28 Then the maid ran, and told in her mother's house, all that she had heard.\n29 And Rebecca had a brother named Laban, who went out in haste to the man, to the well.\n30 And when he had seen the earrings and bracelets in his sister's hands, and had heard all that she related, saying: Thus and thus the man spoke to me: he came to the man who stood by the camels, and near to the spring of water,\n31 And said to him: Come in, thou blessed of the Lord: why standest thou without? I have prepared the house, and a place for the camels.\n32 And he brought him in into his lodging: and he unharnessed the camels and gave straw and hay, and water to wash his feet, and the feet of the men that were come with him.\n33 And bread was set before him. But he said: I will not eat, till I tell my message. He answered him: Speak.\n34 And he said: I am the servant of Abraham:\n35 And the Lord hath blessed my master wonderfully, and he is become great: and he hath given him sheep and oxen, silver and gold, menservants and womenservants, camels and asses.\n36 And Sara my master's wife hath borne my master a son in her old age, and he hath given him all that he had.\n37 And my master made me swear, saying: Thou shalt not take a wife for my son of the Chanaanites, in whose land I dwell:\n38 But thou shalt go to my father's house, and shalt take a wife of my own kindred for my son:\n39 But I answered my master: What if the woman will not come with me?\n40 The Lord, said he, in whose sight I walk, will send his angel with thee, and will direct thy way: and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my own kindred, and of my father's house.\n41 But thou shalt be clear from my curse, when thou shalt come to my kindred, if they will not give thee one.\n42 And I came to day to the well of water, and said: O Lord God of my master Abraham, if thou hast prospered my way, wherein I now walk,\n43 Behold I stand by the well of water, and the virgin, that shall come out to draw water, who shall hear me say: Give me a little water to drink of thy pitcher:\n44 And shall say to me: Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels: let the same be the woman, whom the Lord hath prepared for my master's son.\n45 And whilst I pondered these things secretly with myself, Rebecca appeared coming with a pitcher, which she carried on her shoulder: and she went down to the well and drew water. And I said to her: Give me a little to drink.\n46 And she speedily let down the pitcher from her shoulder, and said to me: Both drink thou, and to thy camels I will give drink.

He offered gifts also to her brothers, and to her mother.\n54 And a banquet was made, and they ate and drank together, and lodged there. And in the morning, the servant arose, and said: Let me depart, that I may go to my master.\n55 And her brother and mother answered: Let the maid stay at least ten days with us, and afterwards she shall depart.\n56 Stay me not, said he, because the Lord hath prospered my way: send me away, that I may go to my master.\n57 And they said: Let us call the maid, and ask her will.\n58 And they called her, and when she was come, they asked: Wilt thou go with this man? She said: I will go.\n59 So they sent her away, and her nurse, and Abraham's servant, and his company,\n60 Wishing prosperity to their sister, and saying: Thou art our sister, mayst thou increase to thousands of thousands, and may thy seed possess the gates of their enemies.\n61 So Rebecca and her maids, being set upon camels, followed the man: who with speed returned to his master.\n62 At the same time Isaac was walking along the way to the well which is called Of the living and the seeing: for he dwelt in the south country.\n63 And he was gone forth to meditate in the field, the day being now well spent: and when he had lifted up his eyes, he saw camels coming afar off.\n64 Rebecca also, when she saw Isaac, lighted off the camel,\n65 And said to the servant: Who is that man who cometh towards us along the field?

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.

the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.\n3 With what raiment he came in, with the like let him go out: if having a wife, his wife also shall go out with him.\n4 But if his master gave him a wife, and she hath borne sons and daughters: the woman and her children shall be her master's: but he himself shall go out with his raiment.\n5 And if the servant shall say: I love my master and my wife and children, I will not go out free:\n6 His master shall bring him to the gods, and he shall be set to the door and the posts, and he shall bore his ear through with an awl: and he shall be his servant for ever.\n7 If any man sell his daughter to be a servant, she shall not go out as bondwomen are wont to go out.\n8 If she displease the eyes of her master to whom she was delivered, he shall let her go: but he shall have no power to sell her to a foreign nation, if he despise her.\n9 But if he have betrothed her to his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.\n10 And if he take another wife for him, he shall provide her a marriage, and raiment, neither shall he refuse the price of her chastity.\n11 If he do not these three things, she shall go out free without money.\n12 He that striketh a man with a will to kill him, shall be put to death.\n13 But he that did not lie in wait for him, but God delivered him into his hands: I will appoint thee a place to which he must flee.\n14 If a man kill his neighbour on set purpose and by lying in wait for him: thou shalt take him away from my altar, that he may die.\n15 He that striketh his father or mother, shall be put to death.\n16 He that shall steal a man, and sell him, being convicted of guilt, shall be put to death.\n17 He that curseth his father, or mother, shall die the death.\n18 If men quarrel, and the one strike his neighbour with a stone or with his fist, and he die not, but keepeth his bed:\n19 If he rise again and walk abroad upon his staff, he that struck him shall be quit, yet so that he make restitution for his work, and for his expenses upon the physicians.\n20 He that striketh his bondman or bondwoman with a rod, and they die under his hands, shall be guilty of the crime.\n21 But if the party remain alive a day or two, he shall not be subject to the punishment, because it is his money.\n22 If men quarrel, and one strike a woman with child, and she miscarry indeed, but live herself: he shall be answerable for so much damage as the woman's husband shall require, and as arbiters shall award.\n23 But if her death ensue thereupon, he shall render life for life.\n24 Eye for

shall give for his life whatsoever is laid upon him.\n31 If he have gored a son, or a daughter, he shall fall under the like sentence.\n32 If he assault a bondman or a bond woman, he shall give thirty sicles of silver to their master, and the ox shall be stoned.\n33 If a man open a pit, and dig one, and cover it not, and an ox or an ass fall into it,\n34 The owner of the pit shall pay the price of the beasts: and that which is dead shall be his own.\n35 If one man's ox gore another man's ox, and he die: they shall sell the live ox, and shall divide the price, and the carcass of that which died

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

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

And the Cinite departed from the midst of Amalec.\n7 And Saul smote Amalec from Hevila, until thou comest to Sur, which is over against Egypt.\n8 And he took Agag the king of Amalec alive: but all the common people he slew with the edge of the sword.\n9 And Saul and the people spared Agag and the best of the flocks of sheep and of the herds, and the garments and the rams, and all that was beautiful, and would not destroy them: but every thing that was vile and good for nothing, that they destroyed.\n10 And the word of the Lord came to Samuel, saying:\n11 It repenteth me that I have made Saul king: for he hath forsaken me, and hath not executed my commandments.

And Samuel came to Saul, and Saul was offering a holocaust to the Lord out of the choicest of the spoils which he had brought from Amalec.\n13 And when Samuel was come to Saul, Saul said to him: Blessed be thou of the Lord, I have fulfilled the word of the Lord.\n14 And Samuel said: What meaneth then this bleating of the flocks, which soundeth in my ears, and the lowing of the herds, which I hear?\n15 And Saul said: They have brought them from Amalec: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the herds that they might be sacrificed to the Lord thy God, but the rest we have slain.\n16 And Samuel said to Saul: Suffer me, and I will tell thee what the Lord hath said to me this night.

And the Lord anointed thee to be king over Israel.\n18 And the Lord sent thee on the way, and said: Go, and kill the sinners of Amalec, and thou shalt fight against them until thou hast utterly destroyed them.\n19 Why then didst thou not hearken to the voice of the Lord: but hast turned to the prey, and hast done evil in the eyes of the Lord.\n20 And Saul said to Samuel: Yea I have hearkened to the voice of the Lord, and have walked in the way by which the Lord sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalec, and Amalec I have slain.\n21 But the people took of the spoils sheep and oxen, as the firstfruits of those things that were slain, to offer sacrifice to the Lord their God in Galgal.\n22 And Samuel said: Doth the Lord desire holocausts and victims, and not rather that the voice of the Lord should be obeyed? For obedience is better than sacrifices: and to hearken rather than to offer the fat of rams.\n23 Because it is like the sin of witchcraft, to rebel: and like the crime of idolatry, to refuse to obey. Forasmuch therefore as thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, the Lord hath also rejected thee from being king.\n24 And Saul said to Samuel: I have sinned because I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and thy words, fearing the people, and obeying their voice.\n25 But now bear, I beseech thee, my sin, and return with me, that I may adore the Lord.\n26 And Samuel said to Saul: I will not return with thee, because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.\n27 And Samuel turned about to go away: but he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent.\n28 And Samuel said to him: The Lord hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to thy neighbour who is better than thee.\n29 But the triumpher in Israel will riot spare, and will not be moved to repentance: for he is not a mail that he should repent.\n30 Then he said: I have sinned: yet honour me now before the ancients of my people, and before Israel, and return with me, that I may adore the Lord thy God.\n31 So Samuel turned again after Saul: and Saul adored the Lord.\n32 And Samuel said: Bring hitherto me Agag the king of Amalec.

And the prophet departing, said: I know that God is minded to kill thee, because thou hast done this evil, and moreover hast not hearkened to my counsel.\n17 Then Amasias king of Juda taking very bad counsel, sent to Joas the son of Joachaz the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying: Come, let us see one another.\n18 But he sent back the messengers, saying: The thistle that is in Libanus, sent to the cedar in Libanus, saying: Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and behold the beasts that were in the wood of Libanus passed by, and trod down the thistle.\n19 Thou hast said: I have overthrown Edom, and therefore thy heart is lifted up with pride: stay at home, why dost thou provoke evil against thee, that both thou shouldst fall and Juda with thee.\n20 Amasias would not hearken to him, because it was the Lord's will that he should be delivered into the hands of enemies, because of the gods of Edom.\n21 So Joas king of Israel went up, and they presented themselves to be seen by one another: and Amasias king of Juda was in Bethsames of Juda:\n22 And Juda fell before Israel and they fled to their dwellings.\n23 And Joas king of Israel took Amasias king of Juda, the son of Joas, the son Joachaz, in Bethsames, and brought him to Jerusalem: and broke down the walls thereof from the gate of Ephraim, to the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits.\n24 And he took all the gold, and silver, and all the vessels, that he found in the house of God, and with Obededom, and in the treasures of the king's house, moreover also the sons of the hostages, he brought back to Samaria.\n25 And Amasias the son of Joas king of Juda lived, after the death of Joas the son of Joachaz king of Israel, fifteen years.\n26 Now the rest of the acts of Amasias, the first and last, are written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.\n27 And after he revolted from the Lord, they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem.

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 he knoweth that he saith true; that you also may believe.\n36 For these things were done, that the scripture might be fulfilled: You shall not break a bone of him.\n37 And again another scripture saith: They shall look on him whom they pierced.\n38 And after these things, Joseph of Arimathea (because he was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews) besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus. And Pilate gave leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.\n39 And Nicodemus also came, (he who at the first came to Jesus by night,) bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.\n40 They took therefore the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths, with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.\n41 Now there was in the place where he was crucified, a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein no man yet had been laid.\n42 There, therefore, because of the parasceve of the Jews, they laid Jesus, because the sepulchre was nigh at hand.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where does it say \"Take not usury of him nor more than thou gavest: fear thy God, that thy brother may live with thee.\", in the bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The passage \"Take not usury of him nor more than thou gavest: fear thy God, that thy brother may live with thee.\" comes from Leviticus 25:36 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the scriptural address for \"And the steward said within himself: What shall I do, because my lord taketh away from me the stewardship?

chapter:\n1 Maccabees Chapter 10\n1 Now in the hundred and sixtieth year Alexander the son 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.\n34 And I will that all the feasts, and the sabbaths, and the new moons, and the days appointed, and three days before the solemn day, and three days after the solemn day, be all days of immunity and freedom, for all the Jews that are in my kingdom:\n35 And no man shall have power to do any thing against them, or to molest any of them, in any cause.\n36 And let there be enrolled in the king's army to the number of thirty thousand of the Jews: and allowance shall be made them as is due to all the king's forces, and certain of them shall be appointed to be in the fortresses of the great king:\n37 And some of them shall be set over the affairs of the kingdom, that are of trust, and let the governors be taken from among themselves, and let them walk in their own laws, as the king hath commanded in the land of Juda.\n38 And the three cities that are added to Judea, out of the country of Samaria, let them be accounted with Judea: that they may be under one, and obey no other authority but that of the high priest:\n39 Ptolemais, and the confines thereof, I give as a free gift to the holy places, that are in Jerusalem, for the necessary charges of the holy things.\n40 And I give every year fifteen thousand sicles of silver out of the king's accounts, of what belongs to me:\n41 And all that is above, which they that were over the affairs the years before, had not paid, from this time they shall give it to the works of the house.\n42 Moreover the five thousand sicles of silver which they received from the account of the holy places, every year, shall also belong to the priests that execute the ministry.\n43 And whosoever shall flee into the temple that is in Jerusalem, and in all the borders thereof, being indebted to the king for any matter, let them be set at liberty, and all that they have in my kingdom, let them have it free.\n44 For the building also, or repairing the works of the holy places, the charges shall be given out of the king's revenues:\n45 For the building also of the walls of Jerusalem, and the fortifying thereof round about, the charges shall be given out of the king's account, as also for the building of the walls in Judea.\n46 Now when Jonathan, and the people heard these words, they gave no credit to them nor received them: because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel, for he had afflicted them exceedingly.\n47 And their inclinations were towards Alexander, because he had been the chief promoter of peace in their regard, and him they always helped.\n48 And king Alexander gathered together a great army, and moved his camp near to Demetrius.\n49 And the two kings joined battle, and the army of Demetrius fled away, and Alexander pursued after him, and pressed them close.\n50 And the battle was hard fought till the sun went down: and Demetrius was slain that day.\n51 And Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemee king of Egypt, with words to this effect, saying:\n52 Forasmuch as I am returned into my kingdom, and am set in the throne of my ancestors and have gotten the dominion, and have overthrown Demetrius, and possessed our country,\n53 And have joined battle with him, and both he and his army have been destroyed by us, and we are placed in the throne of his kingdom:\n54 Now therefore let us make friendship one with another: and give me now thy daughter to wife, and I will be thy son in law, and I will give both thee and her gifts worthy of thee.\n55 And king Ptolemee answered, saying: Happy is the day wherein thou didst return to the land of thy fathers, and sattest in the throne of their kingdom.\n56 And now I will do to thee as thou hast written: but meet me at Ptolemais, that we may see one another, and I may give her to thee as thou hast said.\n57 So Ptolemee went out of Egypt, with Cleopatra his daughter, and he came to Ptolemais in the hundred and sixty-second year.\n58 And king Alexander met him, and he gave him his daughter Cleopatra: and he celebrated her marriage at Ptolemais, with great glory, after the manner of kings.\n59 And king Alexander wrote to Jonathan, that he should come and meet him.\n60 And he went honourably to Ptolemais, and he met there the two kings, and he gave them much silver, and gold, and presents: and he found favour in their sight.\n61 And some pestilent men of Israel, men of a wicked life, assembled themselves against him to accuse him: and the king gave no heed to them.\n62 And he commanded that Jonathan's garments should be taken off, and that he should be clothed with purple: and they did so. And the king made him sit by himself.\n63 And he said to his princes: Go out with him into the midst of the city, and make proclamation, that no man complain against him of any matter, and that no man trouble him for any manner of cause.\n64 So when his accusers saw his glory proclaimed, and him clothed with purple, they all fled away.\n65 And the king magnified him, and enrolled him amongst his chief friends, and made him governor and partaker of his dominion.\n66 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with peace and joy.\n67 In the year one hundred and sixty-five Demetrius the son of Demetrius came from Crete into the land of his fathers.\n68 And king Alexander heard of it, and was much troubled, and returned to Antioch.\n69 And king Demetrius made Apollonius his general, who was governor of Celesyria: and he gathered together a great army, and came to Jamnia: and he sent to Jonathan the high priest,\n70 Saying: Thou alone standest against us, and I am laughed at, and reproached, because thou shewest thy power against us in the mountains.\n71 Now therefore if thou trustest in thy forces, come down to us into the plain, and there let us try one another: for with me is the strength of war.\n72 Ask, and learn who I am, and the rest that help me, who also say that your foot cannot stand before our face, for thy fathers have twice been put to flight in their own land:\n73 And now how wilt thou be able to abide the horsemen, and so great an army in the plain, where there is no stone, nor rock, nor place to flee to?\n74 Now when Jonathan heard the words of Apollonius, he was moved in his mind: and he chose ten thousand men, and went out of Jerusalem, and Simon his brother met him to help him.\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": "Could you pinpoint the book and chapter of \"Because they have forsaken me, and have sacrificed to strange gods, provoking me by all the works of their hands: therefore my indignation shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.\" for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That one's from 2 Kings, chapter 22.\n\nHere's the chapter it's part of:\n2 Kings Chapter 22\n1 Josias was eight years old when he began to reign: he reigned one and thirty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Idida, the daughter of Hadaia, of Besecath.\n2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, and walked in all the ways of David his father: he turned not aside to the right hand, or to the left.\n3 And in the eighteenth year of king Josias, the king sent Saphan the son of Assia, the son of Messulam, the scribe of the temple of the Lord, saying to him:\n4 Go to Helcias the high priest, that the money may be put together which is brought into the temple of the Lord, which the doorkeepers of the temple have gathered of the people.\n5 And let it be given to the workmen by the overseers of the house of the Lord: and lot them distribute it to those that work in the temple of the Lord, to repair the temple:\n6 That is, to carpenters and masons, and to such as mend breaches: and that timber may be bought, and stones out of the quarries, to repair the temple of the Lord.\n7 But let there be no reckoning made with them of the money which they receive, but let them have it in their power, and in their trust.\n8 And Helcias the high priest said to Saphan the scribe: I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord: and Helcias gave the book to Saphan, and he read it.\n9 And Saphan the scribe came to the king, and brought him word again concerning that which he had commanded, and said: Thy servants have gathered together the money that was found in the house of the Lord, and they have given it to be distributed to the workmen, by the overseers of the works of the temple of the Lord.\n10 And Saphan the scribe told the king, saying: Helcias the priest hath delivered to me a book.

The old commandment is the word which you have heard.\n8 Again a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true both in him and in you; because the darkness is passed, and the true light now shineth.\n9 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.\n10 He that loveth his brother, abideth in the light, and there is no scandal in him.\n11 But he that hateth his brother, is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth; because the darkness hath blinded his eyes.\n12 I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.\n13 I write unto you, fathers, because you have known him, who is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because you have overcome the wicked one.\n14 I write unto you, babes, because you have known the Father. I write unto you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and you have overcome the wicked one.\n15 Love not the world, nor the things which are in the world.

And Demetrius sat upon the throne of his kingdom:\n5 And there came to him the wicked and ungodly men of Israel: And Alcimus was at the head of them, who desired to be made high priest.\n6 And they accused the people to the king, saying: Judas and his brethren have destroyed all thy friends, and he hath driven us out of our land.\n7 Now therefore send some man whom thou trustest, and let him go, and see all the havock he hath made amongst us, and in the king's lands: and let him punish all his friends and their helpers.\n8 Then the king chose Bacchides, one of his friends that ruled beyond the great river in the kingdom, and was faithful to the king: and he sent him,\n9 To see the havock that Judas had made: and the wicked Alcimus he made high priest, and commanded him to take revenge upon the children of Israel.\n10 And they arose, and came with a great army into the land of Juda: and they sent messengers, and spoke to Judas and his brethren with peaceable words deceitfully.\n11 But they gave no heed to their words: for they saw that they were come with a great army.\n12 Then there assembled to Alcimus and Bacchides a company of the scribes to require things that are just:\n13 And first the Assideans that were among the children of Israel, and they sought peace of them.\n14 For they said: One that is a priest of the seed of Aaron is come, he will not deceive us.\n15 And he spoke to them peaceably: and he swore to them, saying: We will do you no harm nor your friends.\n16 And they believed him. And he took threescore of them, and slew them in one day, according to the word that is written:\n17 The flesh of thy saints, and the blood of them they have shed round about Jerusalem, and there was none to bury them.\n18 Then fear and trembling fell upon all the people: for they said: There is no truth, nor justice among them: for they have broken the covenant, and the oath which they made.\n19 And Bacchides removed the camp from Jerusalem, and pitched in Bethzecha: and he sent, and took many of them that were fled away from him, and some of the people he killed, and threw them into a great pit.\n20 Then he committed the country to Alcimus, and left with him troops to help him. So Bacchides went away to the king:\n21 But Alcimus did what he could to maintain his chief priesthood.\n22 And they that disturbed the people resorted to him, and they got the land of Juda into their power, and did much hurt in Israel.\n23 And Judas saw all the evils that Alcimus, and they that were with him, did to the children of Israel, much more than the Gentiles.\n24 And he went out into all the coasts of Juda round about, and took vengeance upon the men that had revolted, and they ceased to go forth any more into the country.\n25 And Alcimus saw that Judas, and they that were with him prevailed: and he knew that he could not stand against them, and he went back to the king, and accused them of many crimes.\n26 And the king sent Nicanor one of his principal lords, who was a great enemy to Israel: and he commanded him to destroy the people.\n27 And Nicanor came to Jerusalem with a great army, and he sent to Judas and to his brethren deceitfully with friendly words,\n28 Saying: Let there be no fighting between me and you: I will come with a few men to see your faces with peace.\n29 And he came to Judas, and they saluted one another peaceably: and the enemies were prepared to take away Judas by force.\n30 And the thing was known to Judas that he was come to him with deceit: and he was much afraid of him, and would not see his face any more.\n31 And Nicanor knew that his counsel was discovered: and he went out to fight against Judas near Capharsalama.\n32 And there fell of Nicanor's army almost five thousand men, and they fled into the city of David.\n33 And after this Nicanor went up into mount Sion: and some of the priests and the people came out to salute him peaceably, and to shew him the holocausts that were offered for the king.\n34 But he mocked them and despised them, and abused them: and he spoke proudly,\n35 And swore in anger, saying: Unless Judas and his army be delivered into my hands, as soon as ever I return in peace, I will burn this house. And he went out in a great rage.\n36 And the priests went in, and stood before the face of the altar and the temple: and weeping, they said:\n37 Thou, O Lord, hast chosen this house for thy name to be called upon therein, that it might be a house of prayer and supplication for thy people.\n38 Be avenged of this man, and his army, and let them fall by the sword: remember their blasphemies, and suffer them not to continue any longer.\n39 Then Nicanor went out from Jerusalem, and encamped near to Bethoron: and an army of Syria joined him.\n40 But Judas pitched in Adarsa with three thousand men: and Judas prayed, and said:\n41 O Lord, when they that were sent by king Sennacherib blasphemed thee, an angel went out, and slew of them a hundred and eighty-five thousand:\n42 Even so destroy this army in our sight to day, and let the rest know that he hath spoken ill against thy sanctuary: and judge thou him according to his wickedness.\n43 And the armies joined battle on the thirteenth day of the month Adar: and the army of Nicanor was defeated, and he himself was first slain in the battle.\n44 And when his army saw that Nicanor was slain, they threw away their weapons, and fled:\n45 And they pursued after them one day's journey from Adazer, even till ye come to Gazara, and they sounded the trumpets after them with signals.\n46 And they went forth out of all the towns of Judea round about, and they pushed them with the horns, and they turned again to them, and they were all slain with the sword, and there was not left of them so much as one.\n47 And they took the spoils of them for a booty, and they cut off Nicanor's head, and his right hand, which he had proudly stretched out, and they brought it, and hung it up over against Jerusalem.\n48 And the people rejoiced exceedingly, and they spent that day with great joy.\n49 And he ordained that this day should be kept every year, being the thirteenth of the month of Adar.\n50 And the land of Juda was quiet for a short time.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which chapter and book contains \"For thus saith the Lord God: At the end of forty years I will gather the Egyptians from the people among whom they had been scattered.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from Ezekiel, chapter 29.\n\nWant the full chapter?

Chapter 20\n1 Then all the children of Israel went out and gathered together as one man from Dan to Bersabee, with the land of Galaad, to the Lord in Maspha:\n2 And all the chiefs of the people, and all the tribes of Israel met together in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen fit for war.\n3 (Nor were the children of Benjamin ignorant that the children of Israel were come up to Maspha.) And the Levite the husband of the woman that was killed, being asked, how so great a wickedness had been committed,\n4 Answered: I came into Gabaa of Benjamin with my wife, and there I lodged:\n5 And behold the men of that city in the night beset the house wherein I was, intending to kill me, and abused my wife with an incredible fury of lust, so that at last she died.\n6 And I took her and cut her in pieces, and sent the, parts into all the borders of your possession: because there never was so heinous a crime, and so great an abomination committed in Israel.\n7 You are all here, O children of Israel, determine what you ought to do.\n8 And all the people standing, answered as by the voice of one man: We will not return to our tents, neither shall any one of us go into his own house:\n9 But this we will do in common against Gabaa:\n10 We will take ten men of a hundred out of all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred out of a thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand, to bring victuals for the army, that we might fight against Gabaa of Benjamin, and render to it for its wickedness, what it deserveth.\n11 And all Israel were gathered together against the city, as one man, with one mind, and one counsel:\n12 And they sent messengers to all the tribe of Benjamin to say to them: Why hath so great an abomination been found among you?\n13 Deliver up the men of Gabaa, that have committed this heinous crime, that they may die, and the evil may be taken away out of Israel. But they would not hearken to the proposition of their brethren the children of Israel:\n14 But out of all the cities which were of their lot, they gathered themselves together into Gabaa, to aid them, and to fight against the whole people of Israel.\n15 And there were found of Benjamin five and twenty thousand men that drew the sword, besides the inhabitants of Gabaa,\n16 Who were seven hundred most valiant men, fighting with the left hand as well as with the right: and slinging stones so sure that they could hit even a hair, and not miss by the stone's going on either side.\n17 Of the men of Israel also, beside the children of Benjamin, were found four hundred thousand that drew swords, and were prepared to fight.\n18 And they arose and came to the house of God, that is, to Silo: and they consulted God, and said: Who shall be in our army the first to go to the battle against the children of Benjamin? And the Lord answered them: Let Juda be your leader.\n19 And forthwith the children of Israel rising in the morning, camped by Gabaa:\n20 And going out from thence to fight against Benjamin, began to assault the city.\n21 And the children of Benjamin coming out of Gabaa, slew of the children of Israel that day two and twenty thousand men.\n22 Again Israel trusting in their strength and their number, set their army in array in the same place, where they had fought before:\n23 Yet so that they first went up and wept before the Lord until night: and consulted him, and said: Shall I go out any more to fight against the children of Benjamin my brethren, or not? And he answered them: Go up against them, and join battle.\n24 And when the children of Israel went out the next day to fight against the children of Benjamin,\n25 The children of Benjamin sallied forth out of the gates of Gabaa: and meeting them made so great a slaughter of them, as to kill eighteen thousand men that drew the sword.\n26 Wherefore all the children of Israel came to the house of God, and sat and wept before the Lord: and they fasted that day till the evening, and offered to him holocausts, and victims of peace offerings,\n27 And inquired of him concerning their state. At that time the ark of the covenant of the Lord was there,\n28 And Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron was over the house. So they consulted the Lord and said: Shall we go out any more to fight against the children of Benjamin our brethren, or shall we cease? And the Lord said to them: Go up, for to morrow I will deliver them into your hands.\n29 And the children of Israel set ambushes round about the city of Gabaa:\n30 And they drew up their army against Benjamin the third time, as they had done the first and second.\n31 And the children of Benjamin boldly issued out of the city, and seeing their enemies flee, pursued them a long way, so as to wound and kill some of them, as they had done the first and second day, whilst they fled by two highways, whereof one goeth up to Bethel, and the other to Gabaa, and they slew about thirty men:\n32 For they thought to cut them off, as they did before. But they artfully feigning a flight, designed to draw them away from the city, and by their seeming to flee to bring them to the highways aforesaid.\n33 Then all the children of Israel rising up out of the places where they were, set their army in battle array, in the place which is called Baalthamar. The ambushes also which were about the city, began by little and little to come forth,\n34 And to march from the west side of the city. And other ten thousand men chosen out of all Israel attacked the inhabitants of the city. And the battle grew hot against the children of Benjamin: and they understood not that present death threatened them on every side.\n35 And the Lord defeated them before the children of Israel, and they slew of them in that day five and twenty thousand, and one hundred, all fighting men and that drew the sword.\n36 But the children of Benjamin when they saw themselves to be too weak, began to flee. Which the children of Israel seeing, gave them place to flee, that they might come to the ambushes that were prepared, which they had set near the city.\n37 And they that were in ambush arose on a sudden out of their coverts, and whilst Benjamin turned their backs to the slayers, went into the city, and smote it with the edge of the sword.\n38 Now the children of Israel had given a sign to them, whom they had laid in ambushes, that after they had taken the city, they should make a fire: that by the smoke rising on high, they might shew that the city was taken.\n39 And when the children of Israel saw this in the battle (for the children of Benjamin thought they fled and pursued them vigorously, killing thirty men of their army)\n40 And perceived as it were a pillar of smoke rise up from the city; and Benjamin looking back, saw that the city was taken, and that the flames ascended on high:\n41 They that before had made as if they fled, turning their faces stood bravely against them; which the children of Benjamin seeing, turned their backs,\n42 And began to go towards the way of the desert, the enemy pursuing them thither also. And they that fired the city came also out to meet them.\n43 And so it was, that they were slain on both sides by the enemies, and there was no rest of their men dying. They fell and were beaten down on the east side of the city Gabaa.\n44 And they that were slain in the same place were eighteen thousand men, all most valiant soldiers.\n45 And when they that remained of Benjamin saw this, they fled into the wilderness and made towards the rock that is called Remmon. In that flight, also as they were straggling and going different ways, they slew of them five thousand men.

Here it is:\n2 Maccabees Chapter 3\n1 Therefore when the holy city was inhabited with all peace, and the laws as yet were very well kept, because of the godliness of Onias the high priest, and the hatred his soul had of evil,\n2 It came to pass that even the kings themselves, and the princes esteemed the place worthy of the highest honour, and glorified the temple with very great gifts:\n3 So that Seleucus king of Asia allowed out of his revenues all the charges belonging to the ministry of the sacrifices.\n4 But one Simon of the tribe of Benjamin, who was appointed overseer of the temple, strove in opposition to the high priest, to bring about some unjust thing in the city.\n5 And when he could not overcome Onias he went to Apollonius the son of Tharseas, who at that time was governor of Celesyria and Phenicia:\n6 And told him, that the treasury in Jerusalem was full of immense sums of money, and the common store was infinite, which did not belong to the account of the sacrifices: and that it was possible to bring all into the king's hands.\n7 Now when Apollonius had given the king notice concerning the money that he was told of, he called for Heliodorus, who had the charge over his affairs, and sent him with commission to bring him the foresaid money.\n8 So Heliodorus forthwith began his journey, under a colour of visiting the cities of Celesyria and Phenicia, but indeed to fulfill the king's purpose.\n9 And when he was come to Jerusalem, and had been courteously received in the city by the high priest, he told him what information had been given concerning the money: and declared the cause for which he was come: and asked if these things were so indeed.\n10 Then the high priest told him that these were sums deposited, and provisions for the subsistence of the widows and the fatherless.\n11 And that some part of that which wicked Simon had given intelligence of, belonged to Hircanus son of Tobias, a man of great dignity: and that the whole was four hundred talents of silver, and two hundred of gold:\n12 But that to deceive them who had trusted to the place and temple which is honoured throughout the whole world, for the reverence and holiness of it, was a thing which could not by any means be done.\n13 But he, by reason of the orders he had received from the king, said that by all means the money must be carried to the king.\n14 So on the day he had appointed, Heliodorus entered in to order this matter. But there was no small terror throughout the whole city.\n15 And the priests prostrated themselves before the altar in their priests' vestments, and called upon him from heaven, who made the law concerning things given to be kept, that he would preserve them safe, for them that had deposited them.\n16 Now whosoever saw the countenance of the high priest, was wounded in heart: for his face, and the changing of his colour declared the inward sorrow of his mind.\n17 For the man was so compassed with sadness and horror of the body, that it was manifest to them that beheld him, what sorrow he had in his heart.\n18 Others also came flocking together out of their houses, praying and making public supplication, because the place was like to come into contempt.\n19 And the women, girded with haircloth about their breasts, came together in the streets. And the virgins also that were shut up, came forth, some to Onias, and some to the walls, and others looked out of the windows.\n20 And all holding up their hands towards heaven, made supplication.\n21 For the expectation of the mixed multitude, and of the high priest who was in an agony, would have moved any one to pity.\n22 And these indeed called upon almighty God, to preserve the things that had been committed to them, safe and sure for those that had committed them.\n23 But Heliodorus executed that which he had resolved on, himself being present in the same place with his guard about the treasury.\n24 But the spirit of the almighty God gave a great evidence of his presence, so that all that had presumed to obey him, falling down by the power of God, were struck with fainting and dread.\n25 For there appeared to them a horse with a terrible rider upon him, adorned with a very rich covering: and he ran fiercely and struck Heliodorus with his fore feet, and he that sat upon him seemed to have armour of gold.\n26 Moreover there appeared two other young men beautiful and strong, bright and glorious, and in comely apparel: who stood by him, on either side, and scourged him without ceasing with many stripes.\n27 And Heliodorus suddenly fell to the ground, and they took him up covered with great darkness, and having put him into a litter they carried him out.\n28 So he that came with many servants, and all his guard into the aforesaid treasury, was carried out, no one being able to help him, the manifest power of God being known.\n29 And he indeed by the power of God lay speechless, and without all hope of recovery.\n30 But they praised the Lord because he had glorified his place: and the temple, that a little before was full of fear and trouble, when the almighty Lord appeared, was filled with joy and gladness.\n31 Then some of the friends of Heliodorus forthwith begged of Onias, that he would call upon the most High to grant him his life, who was ready to give up the ghost.\n32 So the high priest considering that the king might perhaps suspect that some mischief had been done to Heliodorus by the Jews, offered a sacrifice of health for the recovery of the man.\n33 And when the high priest was praying, the same young men in the same clothing stood by Heliodorus, and said to him: Give thanks to Onias the priest: because for his sake the Lord hath granted thee life.\n34 And thou having been scourged by God, declare unto all men the great works and the power of God. And having spoken thus, they appeared no more.\n35 So Heliodorus after he had offered a sacrifice to God, and made great vows to him, that had granted him life, and given thanks to Onias, taking his troops with him, returned to the king.\n36 And he testified to all men the works of the great God, which he had seen with his own eyes.\n37 And when the king asked Heliodorus, who might be a fit man to be sent yet once more to Jerusalem, he said:\n38 If thou hast any enemy or traitor to thy kingdom, send him thither, and thou shalt receive him again scourged, if so be he escape: for there is undoubtedly in that place a certain power of God.\n39 For he that hath his dwelling in the heavens, is the visitor, and protector of that place, and he striketh and destroyeth them that come to do evil to it.\n40 And the things concerning Heliodorus, and the keeping of the treasury fell out in this manner.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"And by Jazer they passed into Galaad, and to the lower land of Hodsi, and they came into the woodlands of Dan.

Now therefore deliberate, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me.\n14 And David said to Gad: I am in a great strait: but it is better that I should fall into the hands of the Lord (for his mercies are many) than into the hands of men.\n15 And the Lord sent a pestilence upon Israel, from the morning unto the time appointed, and there died of the people from Dan to Bersabee seventy thousand men.\n16 And when the angel of the Lord had stretched out his hand over Jerusalem to destroy it, the Lord had pity on the affliction, and said to the angel that slew the people: It is enough: now hold thy hand. And the angel of the Lord was by the thrashingfloor of Areuna the Jebusite.\n17 And David said to the Lord, when he saw the angel striking the people: It is I; I am he that have sinned, I have done wickedly: these that are the sheep, what have they done? let thy hand, I beseech thee, be turned against me, and against my father's house.\n18 And Gad came to David that day, and said: Go up, and build an altar to the Lord in the thrashingfloor of Areuna the Jebusite.\n19 And David went up according to the word of Gad which the Lord had commanded him.\n20 And Areuna looked, and saw the king and his servants coming towards him:\n21 An going out he worshipped the king, bowing with his face to the earth, and said: Wherefore is my lord the king come to his servant?

at the door of the tabernacle an oblation to the Lord, shall be guilty of blood: as if he had shed blood, so shall he perish from the midst of his people.\n5 Therefore the children of Israel shall bring to the priest their victims, which they kill in the field, that they may be sanctified to the Lord before the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, and they may sacrifice them for peace offerings to the Lord.\n6 And the priest shall pour the blood upon the altar of the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, and shall burn the fat for a sweet odour to the Lord.\n7 And they shall no more sacrifice their victims to devils, with whom they have committed fornication. It shall be an ordinance for ever to them and to their posterity.\n8 And thou shalt say to them: The man of the house of Israel, and of the strangers who sojourn among you, that offereth a holocaust or a victim,\n9 And bringeth it not to the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, that it may be offered to the Lord, shall perish from among his people.\n10 If any man whosoever of the house of Israel, and of the strangers that sojourn among them, eat blood, I will set my face against his soul, and will cut him off from among his people:\n11 Because the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you, that you may make atonement with it upon the altar for your souls, and the blood may be for an expiation of the soul.\n12 Therefore I have said to the children of Israel: No soul of you, nor of the strangers that sojourn among you, shall eat blood.\n13 Any man whosoever of the children of Israel, and of the strangers that sojourn among you, if by hunting or fowling, he take a wild beast or a bird, which is lawful to eat, let him pour out its blood, and cover it with earth.\n14 For the life of all flesh is in the blood: therefore I said to the children of Israel: You shall not eat the blood of any flesh at all, because the life of the flesh is in the blood, and whosoever eateth it, shall be cut off.\n15 The soul that eateth that which died of itself, or has been caught by a beast, whether he be one of your own country or a stranger, shall wash his clothes and himself with water, and shall be defiled until the evening: and in this manner he shall be made clean.\n16 But if he do not wash his clothes, and his body, he shall bear his iniquity.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does Leviticus chapter 22 verse 23 say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Leviticus 22:23 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"An ox or a sheep, that hath the ear and the tail cut off, thou mayst offer voluntarily: but a vow may not be paid with them.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Tell me what Nehemiah 13:7 says", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From the Old Testament, in Nehemiah 13:7 (Douay Rheims), we read:\n\"And I came to Jerusalem, and I understood the evil that Eliasib had done for Tobias, to make him a storehouse in the courts of the house of God.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book, chapter, and verse for \"But emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men, and in habit found as a man.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Bible, the verse \"But emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men, and in habit found as a man.\" can be found in the book of Philippians, chapter 2, verse 7 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book, chapter, and verse for \"He hath exalted me upon a rock: and now he hath lifted up my head above my enemies.

the barbarous multitude:\n23 And recovered again the most renowned temple in all the world, and delivered the city, and restored the laws that were abolished, the Lord with all clemency shewing mercy to them.\n24 And all such things as have been comprised in five books by Jason of Cyrene, we have attempted to abridge in one book.\n25 For considering the multitude of books, and the difficulty that they find that desire to undertake the narrations of histories, because of the multitude of the matter,\n26 We have taken care for those indeed that are willing to read, that it might be a pleasure of mind: and for the studious, that they may more easily commit to memory: and that all that read might receive profit.\n27 And as to ourselves indeed, in undertaking this work of abridging, we have taken in hand no easy task, yea rather a business full of watching and sweat.\n28 But as they that prepare a feast, and seek to satisfy the will of others: for the sake of many, we willingly undergo the labour.\n29 Leaving to the authors the exact handling of every particular, and as for ourselves, according to the plan proposed, studying to be brief.\n30 For as the master builder of a new house must have care of the whole building: but he that taketh care to paint it, must seek out fit things for the adorning of it: so must it be judged for us.\n31 For to collect all that is to be known, to put the discourse in order, and curiously to discuss every particular point, is the duty of the author of a history:\n32 But to pursue brevity of speech, and to avoid nice declarations of things, is to be granted to him that maketh an abridgment.\n33 Here then we will begin the narration: let this be enough by way of a preface: for it is a foolish thing to make a long prologue, and to be short in the story itself.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Show me 2 Samuel 15:33", "role": "user" }, { "content": "2 Samuel 15:33 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"And David said to him: If thou come with me, thou wilt be a burden to me:\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the scriptural address for \"What is all flesh, that it should hear the voice of the living God, who speaketh out of the midst of the fire, as we have heard, and be able to live?\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of Deuteronomy, chapter 5, verse 26 of the Old Testament, you'll find \"What is all flesh, that it should hear the voice of the living God, who speaketh out of the midst of the fire, as we have heard, and be able to live?\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book is the quote \"The altar of gold, and the ointment, and the incense of spices:\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of Exodus, chapter 39, verse 37 of the Old Testament, you'll find \"The altar of gold, and the ointment, and the incense of spices:\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"And the scripture, foreseeing, that God justifieth the Gentiles by faith, told unto Abraham before: In thee shall all nations be blessed.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in Galatians, chapter 3.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\nGalatians Chapter 3\n1 O senseless Galatians, who hath bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been set forth, crucified among you?\n2 This only would I learn of you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?\n3 Are you so foolish, that, whereas you began in the Spirit, you would now be made perfect by the flesh?\n4 Have you suffered so great things in vain?

They went on their way, and when they came to mount Ephraim, they went into the house of Michas, and rested there:\n3 And knowing the voice of the young man the Levite, and lodging with him, they said to him: Who brought thee hither? what dost thou here? why wouldst thou come hither?\n4 He answered them: Michas hath done such and such things for me, and hath hired me to be his priest.\n5 Then they desired him to consult the Lord, that they might know whether their journey should be prosperous, and the thing should have effect.\n6 He answered them: Go in peace, the Lord looketh on your way, and the journey that you go.\n7 So the five men going on came to Lais: and they saw how the people dwelt therein without any fear, according to the custom of the Sidonians, secure and easy, having no man at all to oppose them, being very rich, and living separated, at a distance from Sidon and from all men.\n8 And they returned to their brethren in Saraa and Esthaol, who asked them what they had done? to whom they answered:\n9 Arise, and let us go up to them: for we have seen the land which is exceeding rich and fruitful: neglect not, lose no time: let us go and possess it, there will be no difficulty.\n10 We shall come to a people that is secure, into a spacious country, and the Lord will deliver the place to us, in which there is no want of any thing that groweth on the earth.\n11 There went therefore of the kindred of Dan, to wit, from Saraa and Esthaol, six hundred men, furnished with arms for war,\n12 And going up they lodged in Cariathiarim of Juda: which place from that time is called the camp of Dan, and is behind Cariathiarim.\n13 From thence they passed into mount Ephraim. And when they were come to the house of Michas,\n14 The five men, that before had been sent to view the land of Lais, said to the rest of their brethren: You know that in these houses there is an ephod, and theraphim, and a graven, and a molten god: see what you are pleased to do.\n15 And when they had turned a little aside, they went into the house of the young man the Levite, who was in the house of Michas: and they saluted him with words of peace.\n16 And the six hundred men stood before the door, appointed with their arms.\n17 But they that were gone into the house of the young man, went about to take away the graven god, and the ephod, and the theraphim, and the molten god, and the priest stood before the door, the six hundred valiant men waiting not far off.\n18 So they that were gone in took away the graven thing, the ephod, and the idols, and the molten god. And the priest said to them: What are you doing?\n19 And they said to him: Hold thy peace and put thy finger on thy mouth and come with us, that we may have thee for a father, and a priest. Whether is better for thee, to be a priest in the house of one man, or in a tribe and family in Israel?\n20 When he had heard this, he agreed to their words, and took the ephod, and the idols, and the graven god, and departed with them.\n21 And when they were going forward, and had put before them the children and the cattle and all that was valuable,\n22 And were now at a distance from the house of Michas, the men that dwelt in the houses of Michas gathering together followed them,\n23 And began to shout out after them. They looked back, and said to Michas: What aileth thee? Why dost thou cry?\n24 And he answered: You have taken away my gods which I have made me and the priest, and all that I have, and do you say: What aileth thee?\n25 And the children of Dan said to him: See thou say no more to us, lest men enraged come upon thee, and thou perish with all thy house.\n26 And so they went on the journey they had begun. But Michas seeing that they were stronger than he, returned to his house.\n27 And the six hundred men took the priest, and the things we spoke of before, and came to Lais to a people that was quiet and secure, and smote them with the edge of the sword: and the city was burnt with fire,\n28 There being no man at all who brought them any succour, because they dwelt far from Sidon, and had no society or business with any man. And the city was in the land of Rohob: and they rebuilt it and dwelt therein.\n29 Calling the name of the city Dan after the name of their father, who was the son of Israel, which before was called Lais.\n30 And they set up to themselves the graven idol, and Jonathan the son of Gersam the son of Moses, he and his sons were priests in the tribe of Dan, until the day of their captivity.\n31 And the idol of Michas remained with them all the time that the house of God was in Silo.

So Pharao awoke.\n5 He slept again, and dreamed another dream: Seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk full and fair:\n6 Then seven other ears sprung up thin and blasted,\n7 And devoured all the beauty of the former. 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.

But equal shall be the portion of him that went down to battle and of him that abode at the baggage, and they shall divide alike.\n25 And this hath been done from that day forward, and since was made a statute, and an ordinance, and as a law in Israel.\n26 Then David came to Siceleg, and sent presents of the prey to the ancients of Juda his neighbours, saying: Receive a blessing of the prey of the enemies of the Lord.\n27 To them that were in Bethel, and that were in Ramoth to the south, and to them that were in Jether,\n28 And to them that were in Aroer and that were in Sephamoth, and that were in Esthamo,\n29 And that were in Rachal, and that were in the cities of Jerameel, and that were in the cities of Ceni,\n30 And that were in Arama, and that were in the lake Asan, and that were in Athach,\n31 And that were in Hebron, and to the rest that were in those places, in which David had abode with his men.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you read Acts chapter 7, verse 27?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Acts 7:27 in the New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"But he that did the injury to his neighbour thrust him away, saying: Who hath appointed thee prince and judge over us?\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"For they that inhabited Jerusalem, and the rulers thereof, not knowing him, nor the voices of the prophets, which are read every sabbath, judging him have fulfilled them.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That verse comes from Acts, chapter 13.\n\nCheck out the whole chapter:\nActs Chapter 13\n1 Now there were in the church which was at Antioch, prophets and doctors, among whom was Barnabas, and Simon who was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manahen, who was the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.\n2 And as they were ministering to the Lord, and fasting, the Holy Ghost said to them: Separate me Saul and Barnabas, for the work whereunto I have taken them.\n3 Then they, fasting and praying, and imposing their hands upon them, sent them away.\n4 So they being sent by the Holy Ghost, went to Seleucia: and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.\n5 And when they were come to Salamina, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John also in the ministry.\n6 And when they had gone through the whole island, as far as Paphos, they found a certain man, a magician, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesu:\n7 Who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, a prudent man. He sending for Barnabas and Saul, desired to hear the word of God.\n8 But Elymas the magician (for so his name is interpreted) withstood them, seeking to turn away the proconsul from the faith.\n9 Then Saul, otherwise Paul, filled with the Holy Ghost, looking upon him,\n10 Said: O full of all guile, and of all deceit, child of the devil, enemy of all justice, thou ceasest not to pervert the right ways of the Lord.\n11 And now behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a time. And immediately there fell a mist and darkness upon him, and going about, he sought some one to lead him by the hand.\n12 Then the proconsul, when he had seen what was done, believed, admiring at the doctrine of the Lord.\n13 Now when Paul and they that were with him had sailed from Paphos, they came to Perge in Pamphylia.

And he sought to see him.\n10 And the apostles, when they were returned, told him all they had done. And taking them, he went aside into a desert place, apart, which belongeth to Bethsaida.\n11 Which when the people knew, they followed him; and he received them, and spoke to them of the kingdom of God, and healed them who had need of healing.\n12 Now the day began to decline. And the twelve came and said to him: Send away the multitude, that going into the towns and villages round about, they may lodge and get victuals; for we are here in a desert place.\n13 But he said to them: Give you them to eat. And they said: We have no more than five loaves and two fishes; unless perhaps we should go and buy food for all this multitude.\n14 Now there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples: Make them sit down by fifties in a company.\n15 And they did so; and made them all sit down.\n16 And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed them; and he broke, and distributed to his disciples, to set before the multitude.\n17 And they did all eat, and were filled. And there were taken up of fragments that remained to them, twelve baskets.\n18 And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples also were with him: and he asked them, saying: Whom do the people say that I am?\n19 But they answered, and said: John the Baptist; but some say Elias; and others say that one of the former prophets is risen again.\n20 And he said to them: But whom do you say that I am? Simon Peter answering, said: The Christ of God.\n21 But he strictly charging them, commanded they should tell this to no man.\n22 Saying: The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the ancients and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day rise again.\n23 And he said to all: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.\n24 For whosoever will save his life, shall lose it; for he that shall lose his life for my sake, shall save it.\n25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, and cast away himself?\n26 For he that shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him the Son of man shall be ashamed, when he shall come in his majesty, and that of his Father, and of the holy angels.\n27 But I tell you of a truth: There are some standing here that shall not taste death, till they see the kingdom of God.\n28 And it came to pass about eight days after these words, that he took Peter, and James, and John, and went up into a mountain to pray.\n29 And whilst he prayed, the shape of his countenance was altered, and his raiment became white and glittering.\n30 And behold two men were talking with him. And they were Moses and Elias,\n31 Appearing in majesty. And they spoke of his decease that he should accomplish in Jerusalem.\n32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep. And waking, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.\n33 And it came to pass, that as they were departing from him, Peter saith to Jesus: Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias; not knowing what he said.\n34 And as he spoke these things, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them; and they were afraid, when they entered into the cloud.\n35 And a voice came out of the cloud, saying: This is my beloved Son; hear him.\n36 And whilst the voice was uttered, Jesus was found alone. And they held their peace, and told no man in those days any of these things which they had seen.\n37 And it came to pass the day following, when they came down from the mountain, there met him a great multitude.\n38 And behold a man among the crowd cried out, saying: Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son, because he is my only one.\n39 And lo, a spirit seizeth him, and he suddenly crieth out, and he throweth him down and teareth him, so that he foameth; and bruising him, he hardly departeth from him.\n40 And I desired thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not.\n41 And Jesus answering, said: O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you?

But while all wondered at all the things he did, he said to his disciples: Lay you up in your hearts these words, for it shall come to pass, that the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.\n45 But they understood not this word; and it was hid from them, so that they perceived it not. And they were afraid to ask him concerning this word.\n46 And there entered a thought into them, which of them should be greater.\n47 But Jesus seeing the thoughts of their heart, took a child and set him by him,\n48 And said to them: Whosoever shall receive this child in my name, receiveth me; and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth him that sent me. For he that is the lesser among you all, he is the greater.\n49 And John, answering, said: Master, we saw a certain man casting out devils in thy name, and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us.\n50 And Jesus said to him: Forbid him not; for he that is not against you, is for you.\n51 And it came to pass, when the days of his assumption were accomplishing, that he steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem.\n52 And he sent messengers before his face; and going, they entered into a city of the Samaritans, to prepare for him.\n53 And they received him not, because his face was of one going to Jerusalem.\n54 And when his disciples James and John had seen this, they said: Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them?\n55 And turning, he rebuked them, saying: You know not of what spirit you are.\n56 The Son of man came not to destroy souls, but to save. And they went into another town.\n57 And it came to pass, as they walked in the way, that a certain man said to him: I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.\n58 Jesus said to him: The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.\n59 But he said to another: Follow me. And he said: Lord, suffer me first to go, and to bury my father.\n60 And Jesus said to him: Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou, and preach the kingdom of God.\n61 And another said: I will follow thee, Lord; but let me first take my leave of them that are at my house.\n62 Jesus said to him: No man putting his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"And the chief priests accused him in many things.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Your verse is located in Mark, chapter 15.\n\nTake a look at the whole chapter:\nMark Chapter 15\n1 And straightway in the morning, the chief priests holding a consultation with the ancients and the scribes and the whole council, binding Jesus, led him away, and delivered him to Pilate.\n2 And Pilate asked him: Art thou the king of the Jews?

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

complete chapter text:\nGenesis Chapter 41\n1 After two years Pharao had a dream. He thought he stood by the river,\n2 Out of which came up seven kine, very beautiful and fat: and they fed in marshy places.\n3 Other seven also came up out of the river, ill favoured, and leanfleshed: and they fed on the very bank of the river, in green places:\n4 And they devoured them, whose bodies were very beautiful and well conditioned. So Pharao awoke.\n5 He slept again, and dreamed another dream: Seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk full and fair:\n6 Then seven other ears sprung up thin and blasted,\n7 And devoured all the beauty of the former. 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. 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": "Can you read Isaiah chapter 19, verse 19?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Isaiah chapter 19, verse 19, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"In that day there shall be an altar of the Lord in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a monument of the Lord at the borders thereof:\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Tell me what Job 33:32 says", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Old Testament\nJob 33:32 (Douay Rheims)\n\"But if thou hast any thing to say, answer me, speak: for I would have thee to appear just.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Verse 4 from chapter 16 in Judith?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Judith chapter 16, verse 4, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"He hath set his camp in the midst of his people, to deliver us from the hand of all our enemies.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"Keep my commandments, and do them.

And he said: Speak.\n13 And the woman said: Why hast thou thought such a thing against the people of God, and why hath the king spoken this word, to sin, and not bring home again his own exile?\n14 We all die, and like waters that return no more, we fall down into the earth: neither will God have a soul to perish, but recalleth, meaning that he that is cast off should not altogether perish.\n15 Now therefore I am come, to speak this word to my lord the king before the people. And thy handmaid said: I will speak to the king, it maybe the king will perform the request of his handmaid.\n16 And the king hath hearkened to me to deliver his handmaid out of the hand of all that would destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God.\n17 Then let thy handmaid say, that the word of the Lord the king be made as a sacrifice. For even as an angel of God, so is my lord the king, that he is neither moved with blessing nor cursing: wherefore the Lord thy God is also with thee.\n18 And the king answering, said to the woman: Hide not from me the thing that I ask thee. And the woman said to him: Speak, my lord the king.\n19 And the king said: Is not the hand of Joab with thee in all this? The woman answered, and said: By the health of thy soul, my lord, O king, it is neither on the left hand, nor on the right, in all these things which my lord the king hath spoken: for thy servant Joab, he commanded me, and he put all these words into the mouth of thy handmaid.\n20 That I should come about with this form of speech, thy servant Joab, commanded this: but thou, my lord, O king, art wise, according to the wisdom of ail angel of God, to understand all things upon earth.\n21 And the king said to Joab: Behold I am appeased and have granted thy request: Go therefore and fetch back the boy Absalom.\n22 And Joab falling down to the ground upon his face, adored, and blessed the king: and Joab said: This day thy servant hath understood, that I have found grace in thy sight, my lord, O king: for thou hast fulfilled the request of thy servant.\n23 Then Joab arose and went to Gessur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem.\n24 But the king said: Let him return into his house, and let him not see my face. So Absalom returned into his house, and saw not the king's face.\n25 But in all Israel there was not a man so comely, and so exceedingly beautiful as Absalom: from the sole of the foot to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him.\n26 And when he polled his hair (now he was polled once a year, because his hair was burdensome to him) he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred sicles, according to the common weight.\n27 And there were born to Absalom three sons: and one daughter, whose, name was Thamar, and she was very beautiful.\n28 And Absalom dwelt two years in Jerusalem, and saw not the king's face.\n29 He sent therefore to Joab, to send him to the king: but he would not come to him. And when he had sent the second time, and he would not come to him,\n30 He said to his servants: You know the field of Joab near my field, that hath a crop of barley: go now and set it on fire. So the servants of Absalom set the corn on fire. And Joab's servants coming with their garments rent, said: The servants of Absalom have set part of the field on fire.\n31 Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom to his house, and said: Why have thy servants set my corn on fire?\n32 And Absalom answered Joab: I sent to thee beseeching thee to come to me, that I might send thee to the king, to say to him: Wherefore am I come from Gessur? it had been better for me to be there: I beseech thee therefore that I may see the face of the king: and if he be mindful of my iniquity, let him kill me.\n33 So Joab going in to the king, told him all: and Absalom was called for, and he went in to the king: and prostrated himself on the ground before him: and the king kissed Absalom.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the reference (book,

As the good is, so also is the sinner: as the perjured, so he also that sweareth truth.\n3 This is a very great evil among all things that are done under the sun, that the same things happen to all men: whereby also the hearts of the children of men are filled with evil, and with contempt while they live, and afterwards they shall be brought down to hell.\n4 There is no man that liveth always, or that hopeth for this: a living dog is better than a dead lion.\n5 For the living know that they shall die, but the dead know nothing more, neither have they a reward any more: for the memory of them is forgotten.\n6 Their love also, and their hatred, and their envy are all perished, neither have they any part in this world, and in the work that is done under the sun.\n7 Go then, and eat thy

the whole chapter:\nHebrews 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.\n23 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 as it is appointed unto men once to die, and

And he made himself chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.\n6 Neither did his father rebuke him at any time, saying: Why hast thou done this? And he also was very beautiful, the next in birth after Absalom.\n7 And he conferred with Joab the son of Sarvia, and with Abiathar the priest, who furthered Adonias's side.\n8 But Sadoc the priest, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Semei, and Rei, and the strength of David's army was not with Adonias.\n9 And Adonias having slain rams and calves, and all fat cattle by the stone of Zoheleth, which was near the fountain Rogel, invited all his brethren the king's sons, and all the men of Juda, the king's servants:\n10 But Nathan the prophet, and Banaias, and all the valiant men, and Solomon his brother, he invited not.\n11 And Nathan said to Bethsabee the mother of Solomon: Hast thou not heard that Adonias the son of Haggith reigneth, and our lord David knoweth it not?\n12 Now then come, take my counsel and save thy life, and the life of thy son Solomon.\n13 Go, and get thee in to king David, and say to him: Didst not thou, my lord O king, swear to me thy handmaid, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne? why then doth Adonias reign?\n14 And while thou art yet speaking there with the king, I will come in after thee, and will fill up thy words.\n15 So Bethsabee went in to the king into the chamber: now the king was very old, and Abisag the Sunamitess ministered to him.\n16 Bethsabee bowed herself, and worshipped the king. And the king said to her: What is thy will?\n17 She answered and said: My lord, thou didst swear to thy handmaid by the Lord thy God, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.\n18 And behold now Adonias reigneth, and thou, my lord the king, knowest nothing of it.\n19 He hath killed oxen, and all fat cattle, and many rams, and invited all the king's sons, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the general of the army: but Solomon thy servant he invited not.\n20 And now, my lord O king, the eyes of all Israel are upon thee, that thou shouldst tell them, who shall sit on thy throne, my lord the king, after thee.\n21 Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king sleepeth with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon shall be counted offenders.\n22 As she was yet speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet came.\n23 And they told the king, saying: Nathan the prophet is here. And when he was come in before the king, and had worshipped, bowing down to the ground,\n24 Nathan said: My lord O king, hast thou said: Let Adonias reign after me, and let him sit upon my throne?\n25 Because he is gone down to day, and hath killed oxen, and fatlings, and many rams, and invited all the king's sons, and the captains of the army, and Abiathar the priest: and they are eating and drinking before him, and saying: God save king Adonias:\n26 But me thy servant, and Sadoc the priest, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and Solomon thy servant he hath not invited.\n27 Is this word come out from my lord the king, and hast thou not told me thy servant who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?\n28 And king David answered and said: Call to me Bethsabee. And when she was come in to the king, and stood before him,\n29 The king swore and said: As the Lord liveth, who hath delivered my soul out of all distress,\n30 Even as I swore to thee by the Lord the God of Israel, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead, so will I do this day.\n31 And Bethsabee bowing with her face to the earth worshipped the king, saying: May my lord David live for ever.\n32 King David also said: Call me Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaias the son of Joiada. And when they were come in before the king,\n33 He said to them: Take with you the servants of your lord, and set my son Solomon upon my mule: and bring him to Gihon.\n34 And let Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel: and you shall sound the trumpet, and shall say: God save king Solomon.\n35 And you shall come up after him, and he shall come, and shall sit upon my throne, and he shall reign in my stead: and I will appoint him to be ruler over Israel, and over Juda.\n36 And Banaias the son of Joiada answered the king, saying: Amen: so say the Lord the God of my lord the king.\n37 As the Lord hath been with my lord the king, so be he with Solomon, and make his throne higher than the throne of my lord king David.\n38 So Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet went down, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and the Cerethi, and Phelethi: and they set Solomon upon the mule of king David, and brought him to Gihon.\n39 And Sadoc the priest took a horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon: and they sounded the trumpet, and all the people said: God save king Solomon.\n40 And all the multitude went up after him, and the people played with pipes, and rejoiced with a great joy, and the earth rang with the noise of their cry.\n41 And Adonias, and all that were invited by him, heard it, and now the feast was at an end: Joab also hearing the sound of the trumpet, said: What meaneth this noise of the city in an uproar?\n42 While he yet spoke, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came: and Adonias said to him: Come in, because thou art a valiant man, and bringest good news.\n43 And Jonathan answered Adonias: Not so: for our lord king David hath appointed Solomon king.\n44 And hath sent with him Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and the Cerethi, and Phelethi, and they have set him upon the king's mule.\n45 And Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon: and they are gone up from thence rejoicing, so that the city rang again: this is the noise that you have heard.\n46 Moreover Solomon sitteth upon the throne of the kingdom,\n47 And the king's servants going in have blessed our lord king David, saying: May God make the name of Solomon greater than thy name, and make his throne greater than thy throne. And the king adored in his bed:\n48 And he said: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who hath given this day one to sit on my throne, my eyes seeing it.\n49 Then all the guests of Adonias were afraid, and they all arose and every man went his way.\n50 And Adonias fearing Solomon, arose, and went, and took hold on the horn of the altar.\n51 And they told Solomon, saying: Behold Adonias, fearing king Solomon, hath taken hold of the horn of the altar, saying: Let king Solomon swear to me this day, that he will not kill his servant with the sword.\n52 And Solomon said: If he be a good man, there shall not so much as one hair of his head fall to the ground: but if evil be found in him, he shall die.\n53 Then king Solomon sent, and brought him out from the altar: and going in he worshipped king Solomon: and Solomon said to him: Go to thy house.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Daniel, chapter 5, verse 8 - what does it say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Old Testament\nDaniel 5:8 (Douay Rheims)\n\"Then came in all the king's wise men, but they could neither read the writing, nor declare the interpretation to the king.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Tell me what Deuteronomy 33:21 says", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Old Testament\nDeuteronomy 33:21 (Douay Rheims)\n\"And he saw his pre-eminence, that in his portion the teacher was laid up: who was with the princes of the people, and did the justices of the Lord, and his judgment with Israel.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"And the children of Israel mourned for him in the plains of Moab thirty days: and the days of their mourning in which they mourned for Moses were ended.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The text \"And the children of Israel mourned for him in the plains of Moab thirty days: and the days of their mourning in which they mourned for Moses were ended.\" is part of Deuteronomy chapter 34, verse 8 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Haggai, chapter 2, verse 9 - what does it say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Haggai 2:9 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the Lord of hosts.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and what chapter and verse include \"And very many of them shall stumble and fall, and shall be broken in pieces, and shall be snared, and taken.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You can find \"And very many of them shall stumble and fall, and shall be broken in pieces, and shall be snared, and taken.\" in the Old Testament, specifically in Isaiah 8:15.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and chapter does \"And their children shall be as from the beginning, and their assembly shall be permanent before me: and I will visit against all that afflict them.\" belong to?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from Jeremiah, chapter 30.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\nJeremiah Chapter 30\n1 This is the word that came to Jeremias from the Lord, saying:\n2 Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, saying: Write thee all the words that I have spoken to thee, in a book.\n3 For behold the days come, saith the Lord, and I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Juda, saith the Lord: and I will cause them to return to the land which I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.\n4 And these are the words that the Lord hath spoken to Israel and to Juda:\n5 For thus saith the Lord: We have heard a voice of terror: there is fear and no peace.\n6 Ask ye, and see if a man bear children?

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? But what the Lord our God hath obtained by conquest, shall be our possession:\n25 Unless perhaps thou art better than Balac the son of Sephor king of Moab: or canst shew that he strove against Israel and fought against him,\n26 Whereas he hath dwelt in Hesebon, and the villages thereof, and in Aroer, and its villages, and in all the cities near the Jordan, for three hundred years. Why have you for so long a time attempted nothing about this claim?\n27 Therefore I do not trespass against thee, but thou wrongest me by declaring an unjust war against me. 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. And he sent her away for two months. And when she was gone with her comrades and companions, she mourned her virginity in the mountains.\n39 And the two months being expired, she returned to her father, and he did to her as he had vowed, and she knew no man. From thence came a fashion in Israel, and a custom has been kept:\n40 That from year to year the daughters of Israel assemble together, and lament the daughter of Jephte the Galaadite for four days.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "I need the text of Leviticus 19:2", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The Old Testament\nLeviticus 19:2 (Douay Rheims)\n\"Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: Be ye holy, because I the Lord your God am holy.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Scripture from Leviticus 21:21?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at Leviticus 21:21 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"Whosoever of the seed of Aaron the priest hath a blemish, he shall not approach to offer sacrifices to the Lord, nor bread to his God.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"And sitting down, he called the twelve, and saith to them: If any man desire to be first, he shall be the last of all, and the minister of all.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture \"And sitting down, he called the twelve, and saith to them: If any man desire to be first, he shall be the last of all, and the minister of all.\" is located in Mark 9:34 of the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Verse 12 from chapter 11 in Matthew?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "New Testament\nMatthew 11:12 (Douay Rheims)\n\"And from the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent bear it away.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and what chapter and verse include \"But pray that your flight be not in the winter, or on the sabbath.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You can find \"But pray that your flight be not in the winter, or on the sabbath.\" in the New Testament, specifically in Matthew 24:20.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you pinpoint the book and chapter of \"Who had to wife Jochabed the daughter of Levi, who was horn to him in Egypt.

brethren, saying, The heathens that are round about are gathered together against us, to destroy us:\n11 And they are preparing to come, and to take the fortress into which we are fled: and Timotheus is the captain of their host.\n12 Now therefore come, and deliver us out of their hands, for many of us are slain.\n13 And all our brethren that were in the places of Tubin, are killed: and they have carried away their wives, and their children, captives, and taken their spoils, and they have slain there almost a thousand men.\n14 And while they were yet reading these letters, behold there came other messengers out of Galilee with their garments rent, who related according to these words:\n15 Saying, that they of Ptolemais, and of Tyre, and of Sidon, were assembled against them, and all Galilee is filled with strangers, in order to consume us.\n16 Now when Judas and all the people heard these words, a great assembly met together to consider what they should do for their brethren that were in trouble, and were assaulted by them.\n17 And Judas said to Simon his brother: Choose thee men, and go, and deliver thy brethren in Galilee: and I, and my brother Jonathan will go into the country of Galaad.\n18 And he left Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias captains of the people with the remnant of the army in Judea to keep it:\n19 And he commanded them, saying: Take ye the charge of this people: but make no war against the heathens, till we return.\n20 Now three thousand men were allotted to Simon, to go into Galilee: and eight thousand to Judas to go into the land of Galaad.\n21 And Simon went into Galilee, and fought many battles with the heathens: and the heathens were discomfited before his face, and he pursued them even to the gate of Ptolemais.\n22 And there fell of the heathens almost three thousand men, and he took the spoils of them,\n23 And he took with him those that were in Galilee and in Arbatis with their wives, and children, and all that they had, and he brought them into Judea with great joy.\n24 And Judas Machabeus, and Jonathan his brother passed over the Jordan, and went three days' journey through the desert.\n25 And the Nabutheans met them, and received them in a peaceable manner, and told them all that happened to their brethren in the land of Galaad,\n26 And that many of them were shut up in Barasa, and in Bosor, and in Alima, and in Casphor, and in Mageth, and in Carnaim: all these strong and great cities.\n27 Yea, and that they were kept shut up in the rest of the cities of Galaad, and that they had appointed to bring their army on the morrow near to these cities, and to take them and to destroy them all in one day.\n28 Then Judas and his army suddenly turned their march into the desert, to Bosor, and took the city: and he slew every male by the edge of the sword, and took all their spoils, and burnt it with fire.\n29 And they removed from thence by night, and went till they came to the fortress.\n30 And it came to pass that early in the morning, when they lifted up their eyes, behold there were people without number, carrying ladders and engines to take the fortress, and assault them.\n31 And Judas saw that the fight was begun, and the cry of the battle went up to heaven like a trumpet, and a great cry out of the city:\n32 And he said to his host: Fight ye to day for your brethren.\n33 And he came with three companies behind them, and they sounded their trumpets, and cried out in prayer.\n34 And the host of Timotheus understood that it was Machabeus, and they fled away before his face: and they made a great slaughter of them: and there fell of them in that day almost eight thousand men.\n35 And Judas turned aside to Maspha, and assaulted, and took it, and he slew every male thereof, and took the spoils thereof, and burnt it with fire.\n36 From thence he marched, and took Casbon, and Mageth, and Bosor, and the rest of the cities of Galaad.\n37 But after this Timotheus gathered another army, and camped over against Raphon beyond the torrent.\n38 And Judas sent men to view the army: and they brought him word, saying: All the nations, that are round about us, are assembled unto him an army exceeding great:\n39 And they have hired the Arabians to help them, and they have pitched their tents beyond the torrent, ready to come to fight against thee. And Judas went to meet them.\n40 And Timotheus said to the captains of his army: When Judas and his army come near the torrent of water, if he pass over unto us first, we shall not be able to withstand him: for he will certainly prevail over us.\n41 But if he be afraid to pass over, and camp on the other side of the river, we will pass over to them and shall prevail against him.\n42 Now when Judas came near the torrent of water, he set the scribes of the people by the torrent, and commanded them, saying: Suffer no man to stay behind: but let all come to the battle.\n43 And he passed over to them first, and all the people after him, and all the heathens were discomfited before them, and they threw away their weapons, and fled to the temple that was in Carnaim.\n44 And he took that city, and the temple he burnt with fire, with all things that were therein: and Carnaim was subdued, and could not stand against the face of Judas.\n45 And Judas gathered together all the Israelites that were in the land of Galaad, from the least even to the greatest, and their wives, and children, and an army exceeding great, to come into the land of Juda.\n46 And they came as far as Ephron: now this was a great city situate in the way, strongly fortified, and there was no means to turn from it on the right hand or on the left, but the way was through the midst of it.\n47 And they that were in the city, shut themselves in, and stopped up the gates with stones: and Judas sent to them with peaceable words,\n48 Saying: Let us pass through your land, to go into our country: and no man shall hurt you: we will only pass through on foot. But they would not open to them.\n49 Then Judas commanded proclamation to be made in the camp, that they should make an assault every man in the place where he was.\n50 And the men of the army drew near, and he assaulted that city all the day, and all the night, and the city was delivered into his hands:\n51 And they slew every male with the edge of the sword, and he razed the city, and took the spoils thereof, and passed through all the city over them that were slain.\n52 Then they passed over the Jordan to the great plain that is over against Bethsan.\n53 And Judas gathered together the hindmost, and he exhorted the people all the way through, till they came into the land of Juda.\n54 And they went up to mount Sion with joy and gladness, and offered holocausts, because not one of them was slain, till they had returned in peace.\n55 Now in the days that Judas and Jonathan were in the land of Galaad, and Simon his brother in Galilee before Ptolemais,\n56 Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias captain of the soldiers, heard of the good success, and the battles that were fought.\n57 And he said: Let us also get us a name, and let us go fight against the Gentiles that are round about us.\n58 And he gave charge to them that were in his army, and they went towards Jamnia.\n59 And Gorgias and his men went out of the city, to give them battle.\n60 And Joseph and Azarias were put to flight, and were pursued unto the borders of Judea: and there fell, on that day, of the people of Israel about two thousand men, and there was a great overthrow of the people:\n61 Because they did not hearken to Judas, and his brethren, thinking that they should do manfully.\n62 But they were not of the seed of those men by whom salvation was brought to Israel.\n63 And the men of Juda were magnified exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and of all the nations where their name was heard.\n64 And people assembled to them with joyful acclamations.\n65 Then Judas and his brethren went forth and attacked the children of Esau, in the land toward the south, and he took Chebron, and her towns: and he burnt the walls thereof and the towers all round it.\n66 And he removed his camp to go into the land of the aliens, and he went through Samaria.\n67 In that day some priests fell in battle, while desiring to do manfully they went out unadvisedly to fight.\n68 And Judas turned to Azotus into the land of the strangers, and he threw down their altars, and he burnt the statues of their gods with fire: and he took the spoils of the cities, and returned into the land of Juda.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "In what book, at what chapter and verse, does \"But they were not of the seed of those men by whom salvation was brought to Israel.\" appear?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"But they were not of the seed of those men by whom salvation was brought to Israel.\" appears in 1 Maccabees, chapter 5, at verse 62 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"Meditate upon these things, be wholly in these things: that thy profiting may be manifest to all.\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from 1 Timothy, chapter 4.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\n1 Timothy Chapter 4\n1 Now the Spirit manifestly saith, that in the last times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to spirits of error, and doctrines of devils,\n2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy, and having their conscience seared,\n3 Forbidding to marry, to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving by the faithful, and by them that have known the truth.\n4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be rejected that is received with thanksgiving:\n5 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.\n6 These things proposing to the brethren, thou shalt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished up in the words of faith, and of the good doctrine which thou hast attained unto.\n7 But avoid foolish and old wives' fables: and exercise thyself unto godliness.\n8 For bodily exercise is profitable to little: but godliness is profitable to all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.\n9 A faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.\n10 For therefore we labor and are reviled, because we hope in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, especially of the faithful.\n11 These things command and teach.\n12 Let no man despise thy youth: but be thou an example of the faithful in word, in conversation, in charity, in faith, in chastity.\n13 Till I come, attend unto reading, to exhortation, and to doctrine.\n14 Neglect not the grace that is in thee, which was given thee by prophesy, with imposition of the hands of the priesthood.\n15 Meditate upon these things, be wholly in these things: that thy profiting may be manifest to all.\n16 Take heed to thyself and to doctrine: be earnest in them.

I will break in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen, and with thee I will break in pieces captains and rulers.\n24 And I will render to Babylon, and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea all their evil, that they have done in Sion, before your eyes, saith the Lord.\n25 Behold I come against thee, thou destroying mountain, saith the Lord, which corruptest the whole earth: and I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and will roll thee down from the rocks, and will make thee a burnt mountain.\n26 And they shall not take of thee a stone for the corner, nor a stone for foundations, but thou shalt be destroyed for ever, saith the Lord.\n27 Set ye up a standard in the land: sound with the trumpet among the nations: prepare the nations against her: call together against her the kings of Ararat, Menni, and Ascenez: number Taphsar against her, bring the horse as the stinging locust.\n28 Prepare the nations against her, the kings of Media, their captains, and all their rulers, and all the land of their dominion.\n29 And the land shall be in a commotion, and shall be troubled: for the design of the Lord against Babylon shall awake, to make the land of Babylon desert and uninhabitable.\n30 The valiant men of Babylon have forborne to fight, they have dwelt in holds: their strength hath failed, and they are become as women: her dwelling places are burnt, her bars are broken.\n31 One running post shall meet another, and messenger shall meet messenger: to tell the king of Babylon that his city is taken from one end to the other:\n32 And that the fords are taken, and the marshes are burnt with fire, and the men of war are affrighted.\n33 For thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: The daughter of Babylon is like a thrashingfloor, this is the time of her thrashing: yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come.\n34 Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon hath eaten me up, he hath devoured me: he hath made me as an empty vessel: he hath swallowed me up like a dragon, he hath filled his belly with my delicate meats, and he hath cast me out.\n35 The wrong done to me, and my flesh be upon Babylon, saith the habitation of Sion: and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, saith Jerusalem.\n36 Therefore thus saith the Lord: Behold I will judge thy cause, and will take vengeance for thee, and I will make her sea desolate, and will dry up her spring.\n37 And Babylon shall be reduced to heaps, a dwelling place for dragons, an astonishment and a hissing, because there is no inhabitant.\n38 They shall roar together like lions, they shall shake their manes like young lions.\n39 In their heat I will set them drink: and I will make them drunk, that they may slumber, and sleep an everlasting sleep, and awake no more, saith the Lord.\n40 I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, and like rams with kids.\n41 How is Sesach taken, and the renowned one of all the earth surprised? How is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations?\n42 The sea is come up over Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof.\n43 Her cities are become an astonishment, a land uninhabited and desolate, a land wherein none can dwell, nor son of man pass through it.\n44 And I will visit against Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he had swallowed down: and the nations shall no more flow together to him, for the wall also of Babylon shall fall.\n45 Go out of the midst of her, my people: that every man may save his life from the fierce wrath of the Lord.\n46 And lest your hearts faint, and ye fear for the rumour that shall be heard in the land: and a rumour shall come in one year, and after this year another rumour: and iniquity in the land, and ruler upon ruler.\n47 Therefore behold the days come, and I will visit the idols of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.\n48 And the heavens and the earth, and all things that are in them shall give praise for Babylon: for spoilers shall come to her from the north, saith the Lord.\n49 And as Babylon caused that there should fall slain in Israel: so of Babylon there shall fall slain in all the earth.\n50 You that have escaped the sword, come away, stand not still: remember the Lord afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.\n51 We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: because strangers are come upon the sanctuaries of the house of the Lord.\n52 Therefore behold the days come, saith the Lord, and I will visit her graven things, and in all her land the wounded shall groan:\n53 If Babylon should mount up to heaven, and establish her strength on high: from me there should come spoilers upon her, saith the Lord.\n54 The noise of a cry from Babylon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans:\n55 Because the Lord hath laid Babylon waste, and destroyed out of her the great voice: and their wave shall roar like many waters: their voice hath made a noise:\n56 Because the spoiler is come upon her, that is, upon Babylon, and her valiant men are taken, and their bow is weakened, because the Lord, who is a strong revenger, will surely repay.\n57 And I will make her princes drunk. and her wise men, and her captains, and her rulers, and her valiant men: and they shall sleep an everlasting sleep, and shall awake no more, saith the king whose name is Lord of hosts.\n58 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: That broad wall of Babylon shall be utterly broken down, and her high gates shall be burnt with fire, and the labours of the people shall come to nothing, and of the nations shall go to the fire, and shall perish.\n59 The word that Jeremias the prophet commanded Saraias the son of Nerias, the son of Maasias, when he went with king Sedecias to Babylon, in the fourth year of his reign: now Saraias was chief over the prophecy.\n60 And Jeremias wrote in one book all the evil that was to come upon Babylon: all these words that are written against Babylon.\n61 And Jeremias said to Saraias: When thou shalt come into Babylon, and shalt see, and shalt read all these words,\n62 Thou shalt say: O Lord, thou hast spoken against this place to destroy it: so that there should be neither man nor beast to dwell therein, and that it should be desolate for ever.\n63 And when thou shalt have made an end of reading this book, thou shalt tie a stone to it, and shalt throw it into the midst of the Euphrates:\n64 And thou shalt say: Thus shall Babylon sink, and she shall not rise up from the affliction that I will bring upon her, and she shall be utterly destroyed.

If a man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world:\n10 But if he walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.\n11 These things he said; and after that he said to them: Lazarus our friend sleepeth; but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.\n12 His disciples therefore said: Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.\n13 But Jesus spoke of his death; and they thought that he spoke of the repose of sleep.\n14 Then therefore Jesus said to them plainly: Lazarus is dead.\n15 And I am glad, for your sakes, that I was not there, that you may believe: but let us go to him.\n16 Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples: Let us also go, that we may die with him.\n17 Jesus therefore came, and found that he had been four days already in the grave.\n18 (Now Bethania was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off.)\n19 And many of the Jews were come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.\n20 Martha therefore, as soon as she heard that Jesus had come, went to meet him: but Mary sat at home.\n21 Martha therefore said to Jesus: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.\n22 But now also I know that whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.\n23 Jesus saith to her: Thy brother shall rise again.\n24 Martha saith to him: I know that he shall rise again, in the resurrection at the last day.\n25 Jesus said to her: I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, although he be dead, shall live:\n26 And every one that liveth, and believeth in me, shall not die for ever. Believest thou this?\n27 She saith to him: Yea, Lord, I have believed that thou art Christ the Son of the living God, who art come into this world.\n28 And when she had said these things, she went, and called her sister Mary secretly, saying: The master is come, and calleth for thee.\n29 She, as soon as she heard this, riseth quickly, and cometh to him.\n30 For Jesus was not yet come into the town: but he was still in that place where Martha had met him.\n31 The Jews therefore, who were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary that she rose up speedily and went out, followed her, saying: She goeth to the grave to weep there.\n32 When Mary therefore was come where Jesus was, seeing him, she fell down at his feet, and saith to him: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.\n33 Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews that were come with her, weeping, groaned in the spirit, and troubled himself,\n34 And said: Where have you laid him? They say to him: Lord, come and see.\n35 And Jesus wept.\n36 The Jews therefore said: Behold how he loved him.\n37 But some of them said: Could not he that opened the eyes of the man born blind, have caused that this man should not die?\n38 Jesus therefore again groaning in himself, cometh to the sepulchre. Now it was a cave; and a stone was laid over it.\n39 Jesus saith: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him: Lord, by this time he stinketh, for he is now of four days.\n40 Jesus saith to her: Did not I say to thee, that if thou believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?\n41 They took therefore the stone away. And Jesus lifting up his eyes said: Father, I give thee thanks that thou hast heard me.\n42 And I knew that thou hearest me always; but because of the people who stand about have I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.\n43 When he had said these things, he cried with a loud voice: Lazarus, come forth.\n44 And presently he that had been dead came forth, bound feet and hands with winding bands; and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus said to them: Loose him, and let him go.\n45 Many therefore of the Jews, who were come to Mary and Martha, and had seen the things that Jesus did, believed in him.\n46 But some of them went to the Pharisees, and told them the things that Jesus had done.\n47 The chief priests therefore, and the Pharisees, gathered a council, and said: What do we, for this man doth many miracles?\n48 If we let him alone so, all will believe in him; and the Romans will come, and take away our place and nation.\n49 But one of them, named Caiphas, being the high priest that year, said to them: You know nothing.\n50 Neither do you consider that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.\n51 And this he spoke not of himself: but being the high priest of that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation.\n52 And not only for the nation, but to gather together in one the children of God, that were dispersed.\n53 From that day therefore they devised to put him to death.\n54 Wherefore Jesus walked no more openly among the Jews; but he went into a country near the desert, unto a city that is called Ephrem, and there he abode with his disciples.\n55 And the pasch of the Jews was at hand; and many from the country went up to Jerusalem, before the pasch to purify themselves.\n56 They sought therefore for Jesus; and they discoursed one with another, standing in the temple: What think you that he is not come to the festival day?

And being in an agony, he prayed the longer.\n44 And his sweat became as drops of blood, trickling down upon the ground.\n45 And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow.\n46 And he said to them: Why sleep you? arise, pray, lest you enter into temptation.\n47 As he was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near to Jesus, for to kiss him.\n48 And Jesus said to him: Judas, dost thou betray the Son of man with a kiss?\n49 And they that were about him, seeing what would follow, said to him: Lord, shall we strike with the sword?\n50 And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.\n51 But Jesus answering, said: Suffer ye thus far. And when he had touched his ear, he healed him.\n52 And Jesus said to the chief priests, and magistrates of the temple, and the ancients, that were come unto him: Are ye come out, as it were against a thief, with swords and clubs?\n53 When I was daily with you in the temple, you did not stretch forth your hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.\n54 And apprehending him, they led him to the high priest's house. But Peter followed afar off.\n55 And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were sitting about it, Peter was in the midst of them.\n56 Whom when a certain servant maid had seen sitting at the light, and had earnestly beheld him, she said: This man also was with him.\n57 But he denied him, saying: Woman, I know him not.\n58 And after a little while, another seeing him, said: Thou also art one of them. But Peter said: O man, I am not.\n59 And after the space, as it were of one hour, another certain man affirmed, saying: Of a truth, this man was also with him; for he is also a Galilean.\n60 And Peter said: Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, as he was yet speaking, the cock crew.\n61 And the Lord turning looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, as he had said: Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.\n62 And Peter going out, wept bitterly.\n63 And the men that held him, mocked him, and struck him.\n64 And they blindfolded him, and smote his face. And they asked him, saying: Prophesy, who is it that struck thee?\n65 And blaspheming, many other things they said against him.\n66 And as soon as it was day, the ancients of the people, and the chief priests and scribes, came together; and they brought him into their council, saying: If thou be the Christ, tell us.\n67 And he saith to them: If I shall tell you, you will not believe me.\n68 And if I shall also ask you, you will not answer me, nor let me go.\n69 But hereafter the Son of man shall be sitting on the right hand of the power of God.\n70 Then said they all: Art thou then the Son of God? Who said: You say that I am.\n71 And they said: What need we any further testimony? for we ourselves have heard it from his own mouth.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Read me Matthew 8:26", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Matthew 8:26 in the New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And Jesus saith to them: Why are you fearful, O ye of little faith?
