Yet by the Spirit he speaketh mysteries.\n3 But he that prophesieth, speaketh to men unto edification, and exhortation, and comfort.\n4 He that speaketh in a tongue, edifieth himself: but he that prophesieth, edifieth the church.\n5 And I would have you all to speak with tongues, but rather to prophesy. For greater is he that prophesieth, than he that speaketh with tongues: unless perhaps he interpret, that the church may receive edification.\n6 But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in doctrine?\n7 Even things without life that give sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction of sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?\n8 For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?\n9 So likewise you, except you utter by the tongue plain speech, how shall it be known what is said? For you shall be speaking into the air.\n10 There are, for example, so many kinds of tongues in this world; and none is without voice.\n11 If then I know not the power of the voice, I shall be to him to whom I speak a barbarian; and he that speaketh, a barbarian to me.\n12 So you also, forasmuch as you are zealous of spirits, seek to abound unto the edifying of the church.\n13 And therefore he that speaketh by a tongue, let him pray that he may interpret.\n14 For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is without fruit.\n15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, I will pray also with the understanding; I will sing with the spirit, I will sing also with the understanding.\n16 Else if thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that holdeth the place of the unlearned say, Amen, to thy blessing? because he knoweth not what thou sayest.\n17 For thou indeed givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.\n18 I thank my God I speak with all your tongues.\n19 But in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also; than ten thousand words in a tongue.\n20 Brethren, do not become children in sense: but in malice be children, and in sense be perfect.\n21 In the law it is written: In other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people; and neither so will they hear me, saith the Lord.\n22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to believers, but to unbelievers; but prophecies not to unbelievers, but to believers.\n23 If therefore the whole church come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in unlearned persons or infidels, will they not say that you are mad?\n24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or an unlearned person, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all.\n25 The secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so, falling down on his face, he will adore God, affirming that God is among you indeed.\n**26 How is it then, brethren? When you come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation: let all things be done to edification.**\n27 If any speak with a tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and in course, and let one interpret.\n28 But if there be no interpreter, let him hold his peace in the church, and speak to himself and to God.\n29 And let the prophets speak, two or three; and let the rest judge.\n30 But if any thing be revealed to another sitting, let the first hold his peace.\n31 For you may all prophesy one by one; that all may learn, and all may be exhorted:\n32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.\n33 For God is not the God of dissension, but of peace: as also I teach in all the churches of the saints.\n34 Let women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted them to speak, but to be subject, as also the law saith.\n35 But if they would learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is a shame for a woman to speak in the church.\n36 Or did the word of God come out from you? Or came it only unto you?\n37 If any seem to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him know the things that I write to you, that they are the commandments of the Lord.\n38 But if any man know not, he shall not be known.\n39 Wherefore, brethren, be zealous to prophesy; and forbid not to speak with tongues.\n40 But let all things be done decently, and according to order.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does 1 Maccabees chapter 5 verse 61 say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at 1 Maccabees 5:61 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"Because they did not hearken to Judas, and his brethren, thinking that they should do manfully.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"And every man left his place, and departed into his own country:\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from *1 Maccabees*, chapter *10*.\n\nWant the full chapter? Here it is:\n*1 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.\n**13 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": "Which book and chapter does \"And the caldrons, and fleshhooks, and bowls.

And bowing their knees, they adored him.\n20 And after they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own garments on him, and they led him out to crucify him.\n21 And they forced one Simon a Cyrenian who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and of Rufus, to take up his cross.\n22 And they bring him into the place called Golgotha, which being interpreted is, The place of Calvary.\n23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh; but he took it not.\n24 And crucifying him, they divided his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.\n25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.\n26 And the inscription of his cause was written over: THE KING OF THE JEWS.\n27 And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.\n28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith: And with the wicked he was reputed.\n29 And they that passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads, and saying: Vah, thou that destroyest the temple of God, and in three days buildest it up again;\n30 Save thyself, coming down from the cross.\n31 In like manner also the chief priests mocking, said with the scribes one to another: He saved others; himself he cannot save.\n32 Let Christ the king of Israel come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him.\n33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole earth until the ninth hour.\n34 And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying: Eloi, Eloi, lamma sabacthani? Which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?\n35 And some of the standers by hearing, said: Behold he calleth Elias.\n36 And one running and filling a sponge with vinegar, and putting it upon a reed, gave him to drink, saying: Stay, let us see if Elias come to take him down.\n37 And Jesus having cried out with a loud voice, gave up the ghost.\n38 And the veil of the temple was rent in two, from the top to the bottom.\n39 And the centurion who stood over against him, seeing that crying out in this manner he had given up the ghost, said: Indeed this man was the son of God.\n40 And there were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalen, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joseph, and Salome:\n41 Who also when he was in Galilee followed him, and ministered to him, and many other women that came up with him to Jerusalem.\n42 And when evening was now come, (because it was the Parasceve, that is, the day before the sabbath,)\n43 Joseph of Arimathea, a noble counsellor, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, came and went in boldly to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.\n44 But Pilate wondered that he should be already dead. And sending for the centurion, he asked him if he were already dead.\n45 And when he had understood it by the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.\n46 And Joseph buying fine linen, and taking him down, wrapped him up in the fine linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewed out of a rock.

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.\n**24 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 after this the judgment:\n28 So also Christ was offered once to exhaust the sins of many; the second time he shall appear without sin to them that expect him unto salvation.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you provide the book, chapter, and verse for \"And the Lord

And he cast out the Gentiles before them: and by lot divided to them their land by a line of distribution.\n55 And he made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tabernacles.\n56 Yet they tempted, and provoked the most high God: and they kept not his testimonies.\n57 And they turned away, and kept not the covenant: even like their fathers they were turned aside as a crooked bow.\n58 They provoked him to anger on their hills: and moved him to jealousy with their graven things.\n59 God heard, and despised them, and he reduced Israel exceedingly as it were to nothing.\n60 And he put away the tabernacle of Silo, his tabernacle where he dwelt among men.\n61 And he delivered their strength into captivity: and their beauty into the hands of the enemy.\n62 And he shut up his people under the sword: and he despised his inheritance.\n63 Fire consumed their young men: and their maidens were not lamented.\n64 Their priests fell by the sword: and their widows did not mourn.\n65 And the Lord was awaked as one out of sleep, and like a mighty man that hath been surfeited with wine.\n66 And he smote his enemies on the hinder parts: he put them to an everlasting reproach.\n**67 And he rejected the tabernacle of Joseph: and chose not the tribe of Ephraim:**\n68 But he chose the tribe of Juda, mount Sion which he loved.\n69 And he built his sanctuary as of unicorns, in the land which he founded for ever.\n70 And he chose his servant David, and took him from the flocks of sheep: he brought him from following the ewes great with young,\n71 To feed Jacob his servant, and Israel his inheritance.\n72 And he fed them in the innocence of his heart: and conducted them by the skillfulness of his hands.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- **Book:** Psalm\n- **Chapter:** 89\n- **Verse:** 1", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Psalm chapter 89, verse 1, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"A prayer of Moses the man of God.

And David rose and went down into the wilderness of Pharan.\n2 Now there was a certain man in the wilderness of Maon, and his possessions were in Carmel, and the man was very great: and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and it happened that he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.\n3 Now the name of the man was Nabal: and the name of his wife was Abigail. And she was a prudent and very comely woman, but her husband was churlish, and very bad and ill natured: and he was of the house of Caleb.\n4 And when David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep,\n5 He sent ten young men, and said to them: Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and salute him in my name with peace.\n6 And you shall say: Peace be to my brethren, and to thee, and peace to thy house, and peace to all that thou hast.\n7 I heard that thy shepherds that were with us in the desert were shearing: we never molested them, neither was there ought missing to them of the flock at any time, all the while they were with us in Carmel.\n8 Ask thy servants, and they will tell thee. Now therefore let thy servants find favour in thy eyes: for we are come in a good day, whatsoever thy hand shall find give to thy servants, and to thy son David.\n9 And when David's servants came, they spoke to Nabal all these words in David's name: and then held their peace.\n10 But Nabal answering the servants of David, said: Who is David? and what is the son of Isai? servants are multiplied now a days who flee from their masters.\n11 Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and the flesh of my cattle, which I have killed for my shearers, and give to men whom I know not whence they are?\n12 So the servants of David went back their way, and returning came and told him all the words that he said.\n13 Then David said to his young men: Let every man gird on his sword. And they girded on every man his sword. And David also girded on his sword: and there followed David about four hundred men: and two hundred remained with the baggage.\n**14 But one of the servants told Abigail the wife of Nabal, saying: Behold David sent messengers out of the wilderness, to salute our master: and he rejected them.**\n15 These men were very good to us, and gave us no trouble: neither did we ever lose any thing all the time that we conversed with them in the desert.\n16 They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.\n17 Wherefore consider, and think what thou hast to do: for evil is determined against thy husband, and against thy house, and he is a son of Belial, so that no man can speak to him.\n18 Then Abigail made haste and took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of dry figs, and laid them upon asses:\n19 And she said to her servants: Go before me: behold I will follow after you: but she told not her husband Nabal.\n20 And when she had gotten upon an ass, and was coming down to the foot of the mountain, David and his men came down over against her, and she met them.\n21 And David said: Truly in vain have I kept all that belonged to this man in the wilderness, and nothing was lost of all that pertained unto him: and he hath returned me evil for good.\n22 May God do so and so, and add more to the foes of David, if I leave of all that belong to him till the morning, any that pisseth against the wall.\n23 And when Abigail saw David she made haste and lighted off the ass, and fell before David, on her face, and adored upon the ground.\n24 And she fell at his feet, and said: Upon me let this iniquity be, my lord: let thy handmaid speak, I beseech thee, in thy ears: and hear the words of thy servant.\n25 Let not my lord the king, I pray, regard this naughty man Nabal: for according to his name, he is a fool, and folly is with him: but I thy handmaid did not see thy servants, my lord, whom thou sentest.\n26 Now therefore, my lord, the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, who hath withholden thee from coming to blood, and hath saved thy hand to thee: and now let thy enemies be as Nabal, and all they that seek evil to my lord.\n27 Wherefore receive this blessing, which thy handmaid hath brought to thee, my lord: and give it to the young men that follow thee, my lord.\n28 Forgive the iniquity of thy handmaid: for the Lord will surely make for my lord a faithful house, because thou, my lord, fightest the battles of the Lord: let not evil therefore be found in thee all the days of thy life.\n29 For if a man at any time shall rise, and persecute thee, and seek thy life, the soul of my lord shall be kept, as in the bundle of the living, with the Lord thy God: but the souls of thy enemies shall be whirled, as with the violence and whirling of a sling.\n30 And when the Lord shall have done to thee, my lord, all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have made thee prince over Israel,\n31 This shall not be an occasion of grief to thee, and a scruple of heart to my lord, that thou hast shed innocent blood, or hast revenged thyself: and when the Lord shall have done well by my lord, thou shalt remember thy handmaid.\n32 And David said to Abigail: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me, and blessed be thy speech:\n33 And blessed be thou, who hast kept me to day, from coming to blood, and revenging me with my own hand.\n34 Otherwise as the Lord liveth the God of Israel, who hath withholden me from doing thee any evil: if thou hadst not quickly come to meet me, there had not been left to Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.\n35 And David received at her hand all that she had brought him, and said to her: Go in peace into thy house, behold I have heard thy voice, and have honoured thy face.\n36 And Abigail came to Nabal: and behold he had a feast in his house, like the feast of a king, and Nabal's heart was merry: for he was very drunk: and she told him nothing less or more until morning.\n37 But early in the morning when Nabal had digested his wine, his wife told him these words, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.\n38 And after ten days had passed, the Lord struck Nabal, and he died.\n39 And when David had heard that Nabal was dead, he said: Blessed be the Lord, who hath judged the cause of my reproach at the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil, and the Lord hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his head. Then David sent and treated with Abigail, that he might take her to himself for a wife.\n40 And David's servants came to Abigail to Carmel, and spoke to her, saying: David hath sent us to thee, to take thee to himself for a wife.\n41 And she arose and bowed herself down with her face to the earth, and said: Behold, let thy servant be a handmaid, to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.\n42 And Abigail arose, and made haste, and got upon an ass, and five damsels went with her, her waiting maids, and she followed the messengers of David, and became his wife.\n43 Moreover David took also Achinoam of Jezrahel: and they were both of them his wives.\n44 But Saul gave Michol his daughter, David's wife, to Phalti, the son of Lais, who was of Gallium.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"And the sons of Remmon the Berothite, Rechab and Baana coming, went into the house of Isboseth in the heat of the day: and he was sleeping upon his bed at noon.

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.\n**27 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

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.

his father had destroyed: and he set up altars to Baal, and made groves, as Achab the king of Israel had done: and he adored all the host of heaven, and served them.\n4 And he built altars in the house of the Lord, of which the Lord said: In Jerusalem I will put my name.\n5 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the temple of the Lord.\n6 And he made his son pass through fire: and he used divination, and observed omens, and appointed pythons, and multiplied soothsayers to do evil before the Lord, and to provoke him.\n7 He set also an idol of the grove, which he had made, in the temple of the Lord: concerning which the Lord said to David, and to Solomon his son: In this temple, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name for ever.\n8 And I will no more make the feet of Israel to be moved out of the land, which I gave to their fathers: only if they will observe to do all that I have commanded them according to the law which my servant Moses commanded them.\n9 But they hearkened not: but were seduced by Manasses, to do evil more than the nations which the Lord destroyed before the children of Israel.\n10 And the Lord spoke in the hand of his servants, the prophets, saying:\n11 Because Manasses king of Juda hath done these most wicked abominations, beyond all that the Amorrhites did before him, and hath made Juda also to sin with his filthy doings:\n12 Therefore thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Behold I will bring on evils upon Jerusalem and Juda: that whosoever shall hear of them, both his ears shall tingle.\n13 And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the weight of the house of Achab: and I will efface Jerusalem, as tables are wont to be effaced, and I will erase and turn it, and draw the pencil often over the face thereof.\n14 And I will leave the remnants of my inheritance, and will deliver them into the hands of their enemies: and they shall become a prey, and a spoil to all their enemies.\n**15 Because they have done evil before me, and have continued to provoke me, from the day that their fathers came out of Egypt, even unto this day.**\n16 Moreover

For this was the custom, that no man durst gainsay the letters which were sent in the king's name, and were sealed with his ring.\n9 Then the king's scribes and secretaries were called for (now it was the time of the third month which is called Siban) the three and twentieth day of the month, and letters were written, as Mardochai had a mind, to the Jews, and to the governors, and to the deputies, and to the judges, who were rulers over the hundred and twenty-seven provinces, from India even to Ethiopia: to province and province, to people and people, according to their languages and characters, and to the Jews, according as they could read and hear.\n10 And these letters which were sent in the king's name, were sealed with his ring, and sent by posts: who were to run through all the provinces, to prevent the former letters with new messages.\n11 And the king gave orders to them, to speak to the Jews in every city, and to command them to gather themselves together, and to stand for their lives, and to kill and destroy all their enemies with their wives and children and all their houses, and to take their spoil.\n12 And one day of revenge was appointed through all the provinces, to wit, the thirteenth of the twelfth month Adar.\n13 And this was the content of the letter, that it should be notified in all lands and peoples that were subject to the empire of king Assuerus, that the Jews were ready to be revenged of their enemies.\n14 So the swift posts went out carrying the messages, and the king's edict was hung up in Susan.\n15 And Mardochai going forth out of the palace, and from the king's presence, shone in royal apparel, to wit, of violet and sky colour, wearing a golden crown on his head, and clothed with a cloak of silk and purple.

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

and shalt give no hire any more.\n42 And my indignation shall rest in thee: and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will cease and be angry no more.\n43 Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast provoked me in all these things: wherefore I also have turned thy ways upon thy head, saith the Lord God, and I have not done according to thy wicked deeds in all thy abominations.\n44 Behold every one that useth a common proverb, shall use this against thee, saying: As the mother was, so also is her daughter.\n45 Thou art thy mother's daughter, that cast off her husband, and her children: and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who cast off their husbands, and their children: your mother was a Cethite, and your father an Amorrhite.\n46 And thy elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister that dwelleth at thy right hand is Sodom, and her daughters.\n47 But neither hast thou walked in their ways, nor hast thou done a little less than they according to their wickednesses: thou hast done almost more wicked things than they in all thy ways.\n48 As I live, saith the Lord God, thy sister Sodom herself, and her daughters, have not done as thou hast done, and thy daughters.\n49 Behold this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance, and the idleness of her, and of her daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.\n50 And they were lifted up, and committed abominations before me: and I took them away as thou hast seen.\n51 And Samaria committed not half thy sins: but thou hast surpassed them with thy crimes, and hast justified thy sisters by all thy abominations which thou hast done.\n52 Therefore do thou also bear thy confusion, thou that hast surpassed thy sisters with thy sins, doing more wickedly than they: for they are justified above thee, therefore be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, thou that hast justified thy sisters.\n53 And I will bring back and restore them by bringing back Sodom, with her daughters, and by bringing back Samaria, and her daughters: and I will bring those that return of thee in the midst of them.\n54 That thou mayest bear thy shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, comforting them.\n55 And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and thou and thy daughters shall return to your ancient state.\n56 And Sodom thy sister was not heard of in thy mouth,

breaking the covenant:\n60 And I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth: and I will establish with thee an everlasting covenant.\n61 And thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed: when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thy elder and thy younger: and I will give them to thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.\n62 And I will establish my covenant with thee: and thou

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 they that carried it, stood still. And he said: Young man, I say to thee, arise.\n15 And he that was dead, sat up, and began to speak.

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": "Which chapter and book contains \"Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God, as thou temptedst him in the place of temptation.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in *Deuteronomy*, chapter *6*.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\n*Deuteronomy Chapter 6*\n1 These are the precepts, and ceremonies, and judgments, which the Lord your God commanded that I should teach you, and that you should do them in the land into which you pass over to possess it:\n2 That thou mayst fear the Lord thy God, and keep all his commandments and precepts, which I command thee, and thy sons, and thy grandsons, all the days of thy life, that thy days may be prolonged.\n3 Hear, O Israel, and observe to do the things which the Lord hath commanded thee, that it may be well with thee, and thou mayst be greatly multiplied, as the Lord the God of thy fathers hath promised thee a land flowing with milk and honey.\n4 Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord.\n5 Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole strength.\n6 And these words which I command thee this day, shall be in thy heart:\n7 And thou shalt tell them to thy children, and thou shalt meditate upon them sitting in thy house, and walking on thy journey, sleeping and rising.\n8 And thou shalt bind them as a sign on thy hand, and they shall be and shall move between thy eyes.\n9 And thou shalt write them in the entry, and on the doors of thy house.\n10 And when the Lord thy God shall have brought thee into the land, for which he swore to thy fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: and shall have given thee great and goodly cities, which thou didst not build,\n11 Houses full of riches, which thou didst not set up, cisterns which thou didst not dig, vineyards and oliveyards, which thou didst not plant,\n12 And thou shalt have eaten and be full:\n13 Take heed diligently lest thou forget the Lord, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

furlongs, and came to Characa to the Jews that are called Tubianites.\n18 But as for Timotheus, they found him not in those places, for before he had dispatched any thing he went back, having left a very strong garrison in a certain hold:\n19 But Dositheus, and Sosipater, who were captains with Machabeus, slew them that were left by Timotheus in the hold, to the number of ten thousand men.\n20 And Machabeus having set in order about him six thousand men, and divided them by bands, went forth against Timotheus, who had with him a hundred and twenty thousand footmen, and two thousand five hundred horsemen.\n21 Now when Timotheus had knowledge of the coming of Judas, he sent the women and children, and the other baggage before him into a fortress, called Carnion: for it was impregnable and hard to come at, by reason of the straitness of the places.\n22 But when the first band of Judas came in sight, the enemies were struck with fear, by the presence of God, who seeth all things, and they were put to flight one from another, so that they were often thrown down by their own companions, and wounded with the strokes of their own swords.\n23 But Judas was vehemently earnest in punishing the profane, of whom he slew thirty thousand men.\n24 And Timotheus himself fell into the hands of the band of Dositheus and Sosipater, and with many prayers he besought them to let him go with his life, because he had the parents and brethren of many of the Jews, who, by his death, might happen to be deceived.\n25 And when he had given his faith that he would restore them according to the agreement, they let him go without hurt, for the saving of their brethren.\n26 Then Judas went away to Carnion, where he slew five and twenty thousand persons.\n27 And after he had put to flight and destroyed these, he removed his army to Ephron, a strong city, wherein there dwelt a multitude of divers nations: and stout young men standing upon the walls made a vigorous resistance: and in this place there were many engines of war, and a provision of darts.\n28 But when they had invocated the Almighty, who with his power breaketh the strength of the enemies, they took the city; and slew five and twenty thousand of them that were within.\n29 From thence they departed to Scythopolis, which lieth six hundred furlongs from Jerusalem.\n30 But the Jews that were among the Scythopolitans testifying that they were used kindly by them, and that even in the times of their adversity they had treated them with humanity:\n31 They gave them thanks exhorting them to be still friendly to their nation, and so they came to Jerusalem, the feast of the weeks being at hand.\n32 And after Pentecost they marched against Gorgias the governor of Idumea.\n33 And he came out with three thousand footmen, and four hundred horsemen.\n34 And when they had joined battle, it happened that a few of the Jews were slain.\n35 But Dositheus, a horseman, one of Bacenor's band, a valiant man, took hold of Gorgias: and when he would have taken him alive, a certain horseman of the Thracians came upon him, and cut off his shoulder: and so Gorgias escaped to Maresa.\n36 But when they that were with Esdrin had fought long, and were weary, Judas called upon the Lord to be their helper, and leader of the battle:\n37 Then beginning in his own language, and singing hymns with a loud voice, he put Gorgias' soldiers to flight.\n38 So Judas having gathered together his army, came into the city Odollam: and when the seventh day came, they purified themselves according to the custom, and kept the sabbath in the place.\n39 And the day following Judas came with his company, to take away the bodies of them that were slain, and to bury them with their kinsmen, in the sepulchres of their fathers.\n40 And they found under the coats of the slain some of the donaries of the idols of Jamnia, which the law forbiddeth to the Jews: so that all plainly saw, that for this cause they were slain.\n41 Then they all blessed the just judgment of the Lord, who had discovered the things that were hidden.\n42 And so betaking themselves to prayers, they besought him, that the sin which had been committed might be forgotten. But the most valiant Judas exhorted the people to keep themselves from sin, forasmuch as they saw before their eyes what had happened, because of the sins of those that were slain.\n43 And making a gathering, he sent twelve thousand drachms of silver to Jerusalem for sacrifice to be offered for the sins of the dead, thinking well and religiously concerning the resurrection,\n44 (For if he had not hoped that they that were slain should rise again, it would have seemed superfluous and vain to pray for the dead,)\n45 And because he considered that they who had fallen asleep with godliness, had great grace laid up for them.\n46 It is therefore a holy and wholesome thought to pray for the dead, that they may be loosed from sins.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"And thou hast delivered us into the hands of our enemies that are unjust, and most wicked, and prevaricators, and to a king unjust, and most wicked beyond all that are upon the earth.\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of *Daniel*, chapter *3*.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n*Daniel Chapter 3*\n1 King Nabuchodonosor made a statue of gold, of sixty cubits high, and six cubits broad, and he set it up in the plain of Dura of the province of Babylon.\n2 Then Nabuchodonosor the king sent to call together the nobles, the magistrates, and the judges, the captains, the rulers, and governors, and all the chief men of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.\n3 Then the nobles, the magistrates, and the judges, the captains, and rulers, and the great men that were placed in authority, and all the princes of the provinces, were gathered together to come to the dedication of the statue, which king Nabuchodonosor had set up. And they stood before the statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.\n4 Then a herald cried with a strong voice: To you it is commanded, O nations, tribes, and languages:\n5 That in the hour that you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, and of the flute, and of the harp, of the sackbut, and of the psaltery, and of the symphony, and of all kind of music; ye fall down and adore the golden statue which king Nabuchodonosor hath set up.\n6 But if any man shall not fall down and adore, he shall the same hour be cast into a furnace of burning fire.\n7 Upon this therefore, at the time when all the people heard the sound of the trumpet, the flute, and the harp, of the sackbut, and the psaltery, of the symphony, and of all kind of music: all the nations, tribes, and languages fell down and adored the golden statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.\n8 And presently at that very time some Chaldeans came and accused the Jews,\n9 And said to king Nabuchodonosor: O king, live for ever:\n10 Thou, O king, hast made a decree that every man that shall hear the sound of the trumpet, the flute, and the harp, of the sackbut, and the psaltery, of the symphony, and of all kind of music, shall prostrate himself, and adore the golden statue:\n11 And that if any man shall not fall down and adore, he should be cast into a furnace of burning fire.\n12 Now there are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the works of the province of Babylon, Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago: these men, O king, have slighted thy decree: they worship not thy gods, nor do they adore the golden statue which thou hast set up.\n13 Then Nabuchodonosor in fury, and in wrath, commanded that Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago should be brought: who immediately were brought before the king.\n14 And Nabuchodonosor the king spoke to them, and said: Is it true, O Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, that you do not worship my gods, nor adore the golden statue that I have set up?\n15 Now therefore if you be ready at what hour soever you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, flute, harp, sackbut, and psaltery, and symphony, and of all kind of music, prostrate yourselves, and adore the statue which I have made: but if you do not adore, you shall be cast the same hour into the furnace of burning fire: and who is the God that shall deliver you out of my hand?\n16 Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago answered and said to king Nabuchodonosor: We have no occasion to answer thee concerning this matter.\n17 For behold our God, whom we worship, is able to save us from the furnace of burning fire, and to deliver us out of thy hands, O king.\n18 But if he will not, be it known to thee, O king, that we will not worship thy gods, nor adore the golden statue which thou hast set up.\n19 Then was Nabuchodonosor filled with fury: and the countenance of his face was changed against Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, and he commanded that the furnace should be heated seven times more than it had been accustomed to be heated.\n20 And he commanded the strongest men that were in his army, to bind the feet of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, and to cast them into the furnace of burning fire.\n21 And immediately these men were bound and were cast into the furnace of burning fire, with their coats, and their caps, and their shoes, and their garments.\n22 For the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace was heated exceedingly. And the flame of the fire slew those men that had cast in Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago.\n23 But these three men, that is, Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, fell down bound in the midst of the furnace of burning fire.\n24 And they walked in the midst of the flame, praising God and blessing the Lord.\n25 Then Azarias standing up prayed in this manner, and opening his mouth in the midst of the fire, he said:\n26 Blessed art thou, O Lord, the God of our fathers, and thy name is worthy of praise, and glorious for ever:\n27 For thou art just in all that thou hast done to us, and all thy works are true, and thy ways right, and all thy judgments true.\n28 For thou hast executed true judgments in all the things that thou hast brought upon us, and upon Jerusalem the holy city of our fathers: for according to truth and judgment, thou hast brought all these things upon us for our sins.\n29 For we have sinned, and committed iniquity, departing from thee: and we have trespassed in all things:\n30 And we have not hearkened to thy commandments, nor have we observed nor done as thou hadst commanded us, that it might go well with us.\n31 Wherefore all that thou hast brought upon us, and every thing that thou hast done to us, thou hast done in true judgment:\n**32 And thou hast delivered us into the hands of our enemies that are unjust, and most wicked, and prevaricators, and to a king unjust, and most wicked beyond all that are upon the earth.**\n33 And now we cannot open our mouths: we are become a shame and reproach to thy servants, and to them that worship thee.\n34 Deliver us not up for ever, we beseech thee, for thy name's sake, and abolish not thy covenant.\n35 And take not away thy mercy from us for the sake of Abraham thy beloved, and Isaac thy servant, and Israel thy holy one:\n36 To whom thou hast spoken, promising that thou wouldst multiply their seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is on the sea shore.\n37 For we, O Lord, are diminished more than any nation, and are brought low in all the earth this day for our sins.\n38 Neither is there at this time prince, or leader, or prophet, or holocaust, or sacrifice, or oblation, or incense, or place of firstfruits before thee,\n39 That we may find thy mercy: nevertheless in a contrite heart and humble spirit let us be accepted.\n40 As in holocausts of rams, and bullocks, and as in thousands of fat lambs: so let our sacrifice be made in thy sight this day, that it may please thee: for there is no confusion to them that trust in thee.\n41 And now we follow thee with all our heart, and we fear thee, and seek thy face.\n42 Put us not to confusion, but deal. with us according to thy meekness, and according to the multitude of thy mercies.\n43 And deliver us according to thy wonderful works, and give glory to thy name, O Lord:\n44 And let all them be confounded that shew evils to thy servants, let them be confounded in all thy might, and let their strength be broken.\n45 And let them know that thou art the Lord, the only God, and glorious over all the world.\n46 Now the king's servants that had cast them in, ceased not to heat the furnace with brimstone, and tow, and pitch, and dry sticks,\n47 And the flame mounted up above the furnace nine and forty cubits:\n48 And it broke forth, and burnt such of the Chaldeans as it found near the furnace.\n49 But the angel of the Lord went down with Azarias and his companions into the furnace: and he drove the flame of the fire out of the furnace,\n50 And made the midst of the furnace like the blowing of a wind bringing dew, and the fire touched them not at all, nor troubled them, nor did them any harm.\n51 Then these three as with one mouth praised, and glorified, and blessed God in the furnace, saying:\n52 Blessed art thou, O Lord the God of our fathers: and worthy to be praised, and glorified, and exalted above all for ever: and blessed is the holy name of thy glory: and worthy to be praised, and exalted above all in all ages.\n53 Blessed art thou in the holy temple of thy glory: and exceedingly to be praised, and exceeding glorious for ever.\n54 Blessed art thou on the throne of thy kingdom, and exceedingly to be praised, and exalted above all for ever.\n55 Blessed art thou, that beholdest the depths, and sittest upon the cherubims: and worthy to be praised and exalted above all for ever.\n56 Blessed art thou in the firmament of heaven: and worthy of praise, and glorious for ever.\n57 All ye works of the Lord, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n58 O ye angels of the Lord, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n59 O ye heavens, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n60 O all ye waters that are above the heavens, bless the Lord;

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

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.\n**7 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 to these was Solomon joined with a most ardent love.\n3 And he had seven hundred wives as queens, and three hundred concubines: and the women turned away his heart.\n4 And when he was now old, his heart was turned away by women to follow strange gods: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David his father.\n5 But Solomon worshipped Astarthe the goddess of the Sidonians, and Moloch the idol of the ammonites.\n6 And Solomon did that which was net pleasing before the Lord, and did not fully follow the Lord, as David his father.\n7 Then Solomon built a temple for Chamos the idol of Moab, on the hill that is over against Jerusalem, and for Moloch the idol of the children of Ammon.\n8 And he did in this manner for all his wives that were strangers, who burnt incense, and offered sacrifice to their gods.\n9 And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because his mind was turned away from the Lord the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,\n10 And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not follow strange gods: but he kept not the things which the Lord commanded him.\n11 The Lord therefore said to Solomon: Because thou hast done this, and hast not kept my covenant, and my precepts, which I have commanded thee, I will divide and rend thy kingdom, and will give it to thy servant.\n12 Nevertheless in thy days I will not do it, for David thy father's sake: but I will rend it out of the hand of thy son.\n13 Neither will I take away the whole kingdom, but I will give one tribe to thy son for the sake of David my servant, and Jerusalem which I have chosen.\n14 And the Lord raised up an adversary to Solomon, Adad the Edomite of the king's seed, in Edom.\n15 For when David was in Edom, and Joab the general of the army was gone up to bury them that were slain, and had killed every male in Edom,\n16 (For Joab remained there six months with all Israel, till he had slain every male in Edom,)\n17 Then Adad fled, he and certain Edomites, of his father's servants with him, to go into Egypt: and Adad was then a little boy.\n18 And they arose out of Madian, and came into Pharan, and they took men with them from Pharan, and went into Egypt to Pharao the king of Egypt: who gave him a house, and appointed him victuals, and assigned him land.\n**19 And Adad found great favour before Pharao, insomuch that he gave him to wife, the own sister of his wife Taphnes the queen.**\n20 And the sister of Taphnes bore him his son Genubath, and Taphnes brought him up in the house of Pharao: and Genubath dwelt with Pharao among his children.\n21 And when Adad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab the general of the army was dead, he said to Pharao: Let me depart, that I may go to my own country.\n22 And Pharao said to him: Why, what is wanting to thee with me, that thou seekest to go to thy own country? But he answered: Nothing: yet I beseech thee to let me go.\n23 God also raised up against him an adversary, Razon the son of Eliada, who had fled from his master Adarezer the king of Soba:\n24 And he gathered men against him, and he became a captain of robbers, when David slew them of Soba: and they went to Damascus, and dwelt there, and they made him king in Damascus.\n25 And he was an adversary to Israel, all the days of Solomon: and this is the evil of Adad, and his hatred against Israel, and he reigned in Syria.\n26 Jeroboam also the son of Nabat an Ephrathite of Sareda, a servant of Solomon, whose mother was named Sarua, a widow woman, lifted up his hand against the king.\n27 And this is the cause of his rebellion against him, for Solomon built Mello, and filled up the breach of the city of David his father.\n28 And Jeroboam was a valiant and mighty man: and Solomon seeing him a young man ingenious and industrious, made him chief over the tributes of all the house of Joseph.\n29 So it came to paste at that time, that Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, and the prophet Ahias the Silonite, clad with a new garment, found him in the way: and they two were alone in the held.\n30 And Ahias taking his new garment, wherewith he was clad, divided it into twelve parts:\n31 And he said to Jeroboam: Take to thee ten pieces: for thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Behold I will rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and will give thee ten tribes.\n32 But one tribe shall remain to him for the sake of my servant David, and Jerusalem the city, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel:\n33 Because he hath forsaken me, and hath adored Astarthe the goddess of the Sidonians, and Chamos the god of Moab, and Moloch the god of the children of Ammon: and hath not walked in my ways, to do justice before me, and to keep my precepts, and judgments as did David his father.\n34 Yet I will not take away all the kingdom out of his hand, but I will make him prince all the days of his life, for David my servant's sake, whom I chose, who kept my commandments and my precepts.\n35 But I will take away the kingdom out of his son's hand and will give thee ten tribes:\n36 And to his son I will give one tribe, that there may remain a lamp for my servant David before me always in Jerusalem the city which I have chosen, that my name might be there.\n37 And I will take thee, and thou shalt reign over all that thy soul desireth, and thou shalt be king over Israel.\n38 If then thou wilt hearken to all that I shall command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do what is right before me, keeping my commandments and my precepts, as David my servant did: I will be with thee, and will build thee up a faithful house, as I built a house for David, and I will deliver Israel to thee:\n39 And I will for this afflict the seed of David, but yet not for ever.\n40 Solomon therefore sought to kill Jeroboam: but he arose, and fled into Egypt to Sesac the king of Egypt, and was in Egypt till the death of Solomon.\n41 And the rest of the words of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom: behold they are all written in the book of the words of the days of Solomon.\n42 And the days that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel, were forty years.\n43 And Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David his father, and Roboam his son reigned in his stead.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which chapter and book contains \"And the men of Ziph came to Saul in Gabaa, saying: Behold David is hid in the hill of Hachila, which is over against the wilderness.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of *1 Samuel*, chapter *26*.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n*1 Samuel Chapter 26*\n**1 And the men of Ziph came to Saul in Gabaa, saying: Behold David is hid in the hill of Hachila, which is over against the wilderness.**\n2 And Saul arose, and went down to the wilderness of Ziph, having with him three thousand chosen men of Israel, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.\n3 And Saul encamped in Gabaa Hachila, which was over against the wilderness in the way: and David abode in the wilderness.

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.\n**25 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.

hath been a golden cup in the hand of the Lord, that made all the earth drunk: the nations have drunk of her wine, and therefore they have staggered.\n8 Babylon is suddenly fallen, and destroyed: howl for her, take balm for her pain, if so she may be healed.\n9 We would have cured Babylon, but she is not healed: let us forsake her, and let us go every man to his own land: because her judgment hath reached even to the heavens, and is lifted up to the clouds.\n10 The Lord hath brought forth our justices: Come, and let us declare in Sion the work of the Lord our God.\n11 Sharpen the arrows, fill the quivers, the Lord hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: and his mind is against Babylon to destroy it, because it is the vengeance of the Lord, the vengeance of his temple.\n12 Upon the walls of Babylon set up the standard, strengthen the watch: set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the Lord hath both purposed, and done all that he spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon.\n13 O thou that dwellest upon many waters, rich in treasures, thy end is come for thy entire destruction.\n14 The Lord of hosts hath sworn by himself, saying: I will fill thee with men as with locusts, and they shall lift up a joyful shout against thee.\n15 He that made the earth by his power, that hath prepared the world by his wisdom, and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.\n16 When he uttereth his voice the waters are multiplied in heaven: he lifteth up the clouds from the ends of the earth, he hath turned lightning into rain: and hath brought forth the wind out of his treasures.\n17 Every man is become foolish by his knowledge: every founder is confounded by his idol, for what he hath cast is a lie, and there is no breath in them.\n**18 They are vain works, and worthy to be laughed at, in the time of their visitation they shall perish.**\n19 The portion of Jacob is not like them: for he that made all things he it is, and Israel is the sceptre of his inheritance: the Lord of hosts is his name.\n20 Thou dashest together for me the weapons of war, and with thee I will dash nations together, and with thee I will destroy kingdoms:\n21 And with thee I will break in pieces the horse, and his rider, and with thee I will break in pieces the chariot, and him that getteth up into it:\n22 And with thee I will break in pieces man and woman, and with thee I will break in pieces the old man and the child, and with thee I will break in pieces the young man and the virgin:\n23 And with thee I will break in pieces the shepherd and his flock, and with thee 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.

silver, and the ornaments of them.\n3 And with other such like speeches, he exhorted them that they would not remove the law from their heart.\n4 It was also contained in the same writing, how the prophet, being warned by God, commanded that the tabernacle and the ark should accompany him, till he came forth to the mountain where Moses went up, and saw the inheritance of God.\n5 And when Jeremias came thither he found a hollow cave: and he carried in thither the tabernacle, and the ark, and the altar of incense, and so stopped the door.\n6 Then some of them that followed him, came up to mark the place: but they could not find it.\n7 And when Jeremias perceived it, he blamed them, saying: The place shall be unknown, till God gather together the congregation of the people, and receive them to mercy.\n8 And then the Lord will shew these things, and the majesty of the Lord shall appear, and there shall be a cloud as it was also shewed to Moses, and he shewed it when Solomon prayed that the place might be sanctified to the great God.\n9 For he treated wisdom in a magnificent manner: and like a wise man, he offered the sacrifice of the dedication, and of the finishing of the temple.\n10 And as Moses prayed to the Lord and fire came down from heaven, and consumed the holocaust: so Solomon also prayed, and fire came down from heaven and consumed the holocaust.\n11 And Moses said: Because the sin offering was not eaten, it was consumed.\n12 So Solomon also celebrated the dedication eight days.\n13 And these same things were set down in the memoirs and commentaries of Nehemias: and how he made a library, and gathered together out of the countries, the books both of the prophets, and of David, and the epistles of the kings. and concerning the holy gifts.\n14 And

hath rendered to all the inheritance, and the kingdom, and the priesthood, and the sanctuary,\n18 As he promised in the law, will shortly have mercy upon us, and will gather us together from every land under heaven into the holy place.\n19 For he hath delivered us out of great perils, and hath cleansed the place.\n20 Now as concerning Judas Machabeus. and his brethren, and the purification of the great temple, and the dedication of the altar:\n21 As also the wars against Antiochus the Illustrious, and his son Eupator:\n22 And the manifestations that came from heaven to them, that behaved themselves manfully on the behalf of the Jews, so that, being but a few, they made themselves masters of the whole country, and put to flight; 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

And Julius treating Paul courteously, permitted him to go to his friends, and to take care of himself.\n4 And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.\n5 And sailing over the sea of Cilicia, and Pamphylia, we came to Lystra, which is in Lycia:\n6 And there the centurion finding a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy, removed us into it.\n7 And when for many days we had sailed slowly, and were scarce come over against Gnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed near Crete by Salmone:\n8 And with much ado sailing by it, we came into a certain place, which is called Good-havens, nigh to which was the city of Thalassa.\n9 And when much time was spent, and when sailing now was dangerous, because the fast was now past, Paul comforted them,\n10 Saying to them: Ye men, I see that the voyage beginneth to be with injury and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.\n11 But the centurion believed the pilot and the master of the ship, more than those things which were said by Paul.\n12 And whereas it was not a commodious haven to winter in, the greatest part gave counsel to sail thence, if by any means they might reach Phenice to winter there, which is a haven of Crete, looking towards the southwest and northwest.\n13 And the south wind gently blowing, thinking that they had obtained their purpose, when they had loosed from Asson, they sailed close by Crete.\n14 But not long after, there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroaquilo.\n15 And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up against the wind, giving up the ship to the winds, we were driven.\n16 And running under a certain island, that is called Cauda, we had much work to come by the boat.\n17 Which being taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship, and fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, they let down the sail yard, and so were driven.\n18 And we being mightily tossed with the tempest, the next day they lightened the ship.\n19 And the third day they cast out with their own hands the tackling of the ship.\n20 And when neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small storm lay on us, all hope of our being saved was now taken away.\n21 And after they had fasted a long time, Paul standing forth in the midst of them, said: You should indeed, O ye men, have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and have gained this harm and loss.\n22 And now I exhort you to be of good cheer.

Be thou made clean.\n42 And when he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.\n43 And he strictly charged him, and forthwith sent him away.\n44 And he saith to him: See thou tell no one; but go, shew thyself to the high priest, and offer for thy cleansing the things that Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.\n45 But he being gone out, began to publish and to blaze abroad the word: so that he could not openly go into the city, but was without in desert places: and they flocked to him from all sides.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does it say in Numbers chapter 20 verse 6?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**Old Testament**\n*Numbers 20:6 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"And Moses and Aaron leaving the multitude, went into the tabernacle of the covenant, and fell flat upon the ground, and cried to the Lord, and said: O Lord God, hear the cry of this people, and open to them thy treasure, a fountain of living water, that being satisfied, they may cease to murmur.

But David took the castle of Sion, which is the city of David.\n6 And he said: Whosoever shall first strike the Jebusites, shall be the head and chief captain.

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

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,

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

And he did that which is good before the Lord all the days of Joiada the priest.**\n3 And Joiada took for him two wives, by whom he had sons and daughters.\n4 After this Joas had a mind to repair the house of the Lord.\n5 And he assembled the priests, and the Levites, and said to them: Go out to the cities of Juda, and gather of all Israel money to repair the temple of your God, from year to year: and do this with speed: but the Levites were negligent.\n6 And the king called Joiada the chief, and said to him: Why hast thou not taken care to oblige the Levites to bring in out of Juda and Jerusalem the money that was appointed by Moses the servant of the Lord for all the multitude of Israel to bring into the tabernacle of the testimony?\n7 For that wicked woman Athalia, and her children have destroyed the house of God, and adorned the temple of Baal with all the things that had been dedicated in the temple of the Lord.\n8 And the king commanded, and they made a chest: and set it by the gate of the house of the Lord on the outside.\n9 And they made a proclamation in Juda and Jerusalem, that every man should bring to the Lord the money which Moses the servant of God appointed for all Israel, in the desert.\n10 And all the princes, and all the people rejoiced: and going In they contributed and cast so much into the chest of the Lord, that it was filled.\n11 And when it was time to bring the chest before the king by the hands of the Levites, (for they saw there was much money,) the king's scribe, and he whom the high priest had appointed went in: and they poured out the money that was in the chest: and they carried back the chest to its place: and thus they did from day to day, and there was gathered an immense sum of money.\n12 And the king and Joiada gave it to those who were over the works of the house of the Lord: but they hired with it stonecutters, and artificers of every kind of work to repair the house of the Lord: and such as wrought in iron and brass, to uphold what began to be falling.\n13 And the workmen were diligent, and the breach of the walls was closed up by their hands, and they set up the house of the Lord in its former state, and made it stand firm.\n14 And when they had finished all the works, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Joiada: and with it were made vessels for the temple for the ministry, and for holocausts and bowls, and other vessels of gold and silver: and holocausts were offered in the house of the Lord continually all the days of Joiada.\n15 But Joiada grew old and was full of days, and died when he was a hundred and thirty years old.\n16 And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good to Israel, and to his house.\n17 And after the death of Joiada, the princes of Juda went in, and worshipped the king: and he was soothed by their services and hearkened to them.\n18 And they forsook the temple of the Lord the God of their fathers, and served groves and idols, and wrath came upon Juda and Jerusalem for this sin.\n19 And he sent prophets to them to bring them back to the Lord, and they would not give ear when they testified against them.\n20 The spirit of God then came upon Zacharias the son of Joiada the priest, and he stood in the sight of the people, and said to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Why transgress you the commandment of the Lord which will not be for your good, and have forsaken the Lord, to make him forsake you?\n21 And they gathered themselves together against him, and stoned him at the king's

Here it is:\n*John Chapter 5*\n1 After these things was a festival day of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.\n2 Now there is at Jerusalem a pond, called Probatica, which in Hebrew is named Bethsaida, having five porches.\n3 In these lay a great multitude of sick, of blind, of lame, of withered; waiting for the moving of the water.\n4 And an angel of the Lord descended at certain times into the pond; and the water was moved. And he that went down first into the pond after the motion of the water, was made whole, of whatsoever infirmity he lay under.\n5 And there was a certain man there, that had been eight and thirty years under his infirmity.\n6 Him when Jesus had seen lying, and knew that he had been now a long time, he saith to him: Wilt thou be made whole?\n7 The infirm man answered him: Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pond. For whilst I am coming, another goeth down before me.\n8 Jesus saith to him: Arise, take up thy bed, and walk.\n9 And immediately the man was made whole: and he took up his bed, and walked. And it was the sabbath that day.\n10 The Jews therefore said to him that was healed: It is the sabbath; it is not lawful for thee to take up thy bed.\n11 He answered them: He that made me whole, he said to me, Take up thy bed, and walk.\n12 They asked him therefore: Who is that man who said to thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?\n13 But he who was healed, knew not who it was; for Jesus went aside from the multitude standing in the place.\n14 Afterwards, Jesus findeth him in the temple, and saith to him: Behold thou art made whole: sin no more, lest some worse thing happen to thee.\n15 The man went his way, and told the Jews, that it was Jesus who had made him whole.\n16 Therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, because he did these things on the sabbath.\n17 But Jesus answered them: My Father worketh until now; and I work.\n18 Hereupon therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he did not only break the sabbath, but also said God was his Father, making himself equal to God.\n19 Then Jesus answered, and said to them: Amen, amen, I say unto you, the Son cannot do any thing of himself, but what he seeth the Father doing: for what things soever he doth, these the Son also doth in like manner.\n20 For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things which himself doth: and greater works than these will he shew him, that you may wonder.\n21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and giveth life: so the Son also giveth life to whom he will.\n22 For neither doth the Father judge any man, but hath given all judgment to the Son.\n23 That all men may honour the Son, as they honour the Father. He who honoureth not the Son, honoureth not the Father, who hath sent him.\n24 Amen, amen I say unto you, that he who heareth my word, and believeth him that sent me, hath life everlasting; and cometh not into judgment, but is passed from death to life.\n25 Amen, amen I say unto you, that the hour cometh, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they that hear shall live.\n26 For as the Father hath life in himself, so he hath given the Son also to have life in himself:\n27 And he hath given him power to do judgment, because he is the Son of man.\n28 Wonder not at this; for the hour cometh, wherein all that are in the graves shall hear the voice of the Son of God.\n29 And they that have done good things, shall come forth unto the resurrection of life; but they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of judgment.\n30 I cannot of myself do any thing.

heads of the families of the children of Israel were assembled to king Solomon in Jerusalem: that they might carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, that is, out of Sion.\n2 And all Israel assembled themselves to king Solomon on the festival day in the month of Ethanim, the same is the seventh month.\n3 And all the ancients of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark,\n4 And carried the ark of the Lord, and the tabernacle of the covenant, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, that were in the tabernacle: and the priests and the Levites carried them.\n5 And king Solomon, and all the multitude of Israel, that were assembled unto him went with him before the ark, and they sacrificed sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered.\n6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, into the oracle of the temple, into the holy of holies under the wings of the cherubims.\n7 For the cherubims spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and covered the art, and the staves thereof above.\n8 And whereas the staves stood out, the ends of them were seen without in the sanctuary before the oracle, but were not seen farther out, and there they have been unto this day.\n9 Now in the ark there was nothing else but the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the sanctuary, that a cloud filled the house of the Lord,\n11 And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of the Lord.\n12 Then Solomon said: The Lord said that he would dwell in a cloud.\n13 Building I have built a house for thy dwelling, to be thy most firm throne for ever.\n14 And the king turned his face, and blessed all the assembly of Israel: for all the assembly of Israel stood.\n15 And Solomon said: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father, and with his own hands hath accomplished it, saying:\n16 Since the day that I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel, for a house to be built, that my name might be there: but I chose David to be over my people Israel.\n17 And David my father would have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel:\n18 And the Lord said to David my father: Whereas thou hast thought in thy heart to build a house to my name, thou hast done well in having this same thing in thy mind.\n19 Nevertheless thou shalt not build me a house, but thy son, that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build a house to my name.\n20 The Lord hath performed his word which he spoke: and I stand in the room of David my father, and sit upon the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised: and have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel.\n21 And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with our fathers, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n22 And Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in the sight of the assembly of Israel, and spread forth his hands towards heaven;\n23 And said: Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heaven above, or on earth beneath: who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that have walked before thee with all their heart.\n24 Who hast kept with thy servant David my father what thou hast promised him: with thy mouth thou didst speak, and with thy hands thou hast performed, as this day proveth.\n25 Now therefore, O Lord God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father what thou hast spoken to him, saying: There shall not be taken away of thee a man in my sight, to sit on the throne of Israel: yet so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked in my sight.\n26 And now, Lord God of Israel, let thy words be established, which thou hast spoken to thy servant David my father.\n27 Is it then to be thought that God should indeed dwell upon earth? for if heaven, and the heavens of heavens cannot contain thee, how much less this house which I have built?\n28 But have regard to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, O Lord my God: hear the hymn and the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee this day:\n29 That thy eyes may be open upon this house night and day: upon the house of which thou hast said: My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth in this place to thee.\n30 That thou mayest hearken to the supplication of thy servant and of thy people Israel, whatsoever they shall pray for in this place, and hear them in the place of thy dwelling in heaven; and when thou hearest, shew them mercy.\n31 If any man trespass against his neighbour, and have an oath upon him, wherewith he is bound: and come because of the oath before thy altar to thy house,\n32 Then hear thou in heaven: and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, and bringing his way upon his own head, and justifying the just, and rewarding him according to his justice.\n33 If thy people Israel shall fly before their enemies, (because they will sin against thee,) and doing penance, and confessing to thy name, shall come, and pray, and make supplications to thee in this house:\n34 Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them back to the land which thou gavest to their fathers.\n35 If heaven shall be shut up, and there shall be no rain, because of their sins, and they praying in this place, shall do penance to thy name, and shall be converted from their sins, by occasion of their afflictions:\n36 Then hear thou them in heaven, and forgive the sins of thy servants, and of thy people Israel: and shew them the good way wherein they should walk, and give rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people in possession.\n37 If a famine arise in the land, or a pestilence, or corrupt air, or blasting, or locust, or mildew, if their enemy afflict them besieging the gates, whatsoever plague, whatsoever infirmity,\n38 Whatsoever curse or imprecation shall happen to any man of thy people Israel: when a man shall know the wound of his own heart, and shall spread forth his hands in this house,\n39 Then hear thou in heaven, in the place of thy dwelling, and forgive, and do so as to give to every one according to his ways, as thou shalt see his heart (for thou only knowest the heart of all the children of men)\n40 That they may fear thee all the days that they live upon the face of the land, which thou hast given to our fathers.\n41 Moreover also the stranger, who is not of thy people Israel, when he shall come out of a far country for thy name's sake, (for they shall hear everywhere of thy great name and thy mighty hand,\n42 And thy stretched out arm,) so when he shall come, and shall pray in this place,\n43 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy dwelling place, and do all those things, for which that stranger shall call upon thee: that all the people of the earth may learn to fear thy name, as do thy people Israel, and may prove that thy name is called upon on this house, which I have built.\n**44 If thy people go out to war against their enemies, by what way soever thou shalt send them, they shall pray to thee towards the way of the city, which thou hast chosen, and towards the house, which I have built to thy name:**\n45 And then hear thou in heaven their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them.\n46 But if they sin against thee (for there is no man who sinneth not) and thou being angry deliver them up to their enemies, so that they be led away captives into the land of their enemies far or near;\n47 Then if they do penance in their heart in the place of captivity, and being converted make supplication to thee in their captivity, saying: We have sinned, we have done unjustly, we have committed wickedness:\n48 And return to thee with all their heart, and all their soul, in the land of their enemies, to which they had been led captives: and pray to thee towards the way of their land, which thou gavest to their fathers, and of the city which thou hast chosen, and of the temple which I have built to thy name:\n49 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy throne, their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them:\n50 And forgive thy people, that have sinned against thee, and all their iniquities, by which they have transgressed against thee: and give them mercy before them that have made them captives, that they may have compassion on them.\n51 For they are thy people, and thy inheritance, whom thou hast brought out of the land of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron.\n52 That thy eyes may be open to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, to hear them in all things for which they shall call upon thee.\n53 For thou hast separated them to thyself for an inheritance from among all the people of the earth, as thou hast spoken by Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord God.\n54 And it came to pass, when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication to the Lord, that he rose from before the altar of the Lord: for he had fixed both knees on the ground, and had spread his hands towards heaven.\n55 And he stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a, loud voice, saying:\n56 Blessed be the Lord, who hath given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed so much as one word of all the good things that he promised by his servant Moses.\n57 The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our fathers, and not leave us, nor cast us off:\n58 But may he incline our hearts to himself, that we may walk in all his ways, and keep his commandments, and his ceremonies, and all his judgments which he commanded our fathers.\n59 And let these my words, wherewith I have prayed before the Lord, he nigh unto the Lord our God day and night, that he may do judgment for his servant, and for his people Israel day by day:\n60 That all the people of the earth may know, that the Lord he is God, and there is no other besides him.\n61 Let our hearts also be perfect with the Lord our God, that we may walk in his statutes, and keep his commandments, as at this day.\n62 And the king, and all Israel him, offered victims before the Lord.\n63 And Solomon slew victims of peace offerings, which he sacrificed to the Lord, two and twenty thousand oxen, and hundred and twenty thousand sheep: so the king, and the children of Israel dedicated the temple of the Lord.\n64 In that day the king sanctified the middle of the court that was before the house of the Lord: for there he offered the holocaust, and sacrifice, and fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar that was before the Lord, was too little to receive the holocaust, and sacrifice, and fat of the peace offerings.\n65 And Solomon made at the same time a solemn feast, and all Israel with him, a great multitude from the entrance of Emath to the river of Egypt, before the Lord our God, seven days and seven days, that is, fourteen days.\n66 And on the eighth day he sent away the people: and they blessed the king, and went to their dwellings rejoicing, and glad in heart for all the good things that the Lord had done for David his servant, and for Israel his people.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"And he chose priests without blemish, whose will was set upon the law of God:\"?", "role": "user" }, {

And Judas heard of it, and rose up, he and the valiant men, to attack the king's forces that were in Emmaus.\n4 For as yet the army was dispersed from the camp.\n5 And Gorgias came by night into the camp of Judas, and found no man, and he sought them in the mountains: for he said: These men flee from us.\n6 And when it was day, Judas shewed himself in the plain with three thousand men only, who neither had armour nor swords.\n7 And they saw the camp of the Gentiles that it was strong, and the men in breastplates, and the horsemen round about them, and these were trained up to war.\n8 And Judas said to the men that were with him: Fear ye not their multitude, neither be ye afraid of their assault.\n9 Remember in what manner our fathers were saved in the Red Sea, when Pharao pursued them with a great army.\n10 And now let us cry to heaven: and the Lord will have mercy on us, and will remember the covenant of our fathers, and will destroy this army before our face this day:\n11 And all nations shall know that there is one that redeemeth and delivereth Israel.\n12 And the strangers lifted up their eyes, and saw them coming against them.\n13 And they went out of the camp to battle, and they that were with Judas sounded the trumpet.\n14 And they joined battle: and the Gentiles were routed, and fled into the plain.\n15 But all the hindmost of them fell by the sword, and they pursued them as far as Gezeron, and even to the plains of Idumea, and of Azotus, and of Jamnia: and there fell of them to the number of three thousand men.\n16 And Judas returned again with his army

enemies, and overthrow them, and you shall take the spoils afterwards with safety.\n19 And as Judas was speaking these words, behold part of them appeared looking forth from the mountain.\n20 And Gorgias saw that his men were put to flight, and that they had set fire to the camp: for the smoke that was seen declared what was done.\n21 And when they had seen this, they were seized with great fear, seeing at the same time Judas and his army in the plain ready to fight.\n22 So they all fled away into the land of the strangers.\n23 And Judas returned to take the spoils of the camp, and they got much gold, and silver, and blue silk, and purple of the sea, and great riches.\n24 And returning home they sung a hymn, and blessed God in heaven, because he is good, because his mercy endureth for ever.\n25 So Israel had a great deliverance that day.\n26 And such of the strangers as escaped, went and told Lysias all that had happened.\n27 And when he heard these things, he was amazed and discouraged: because things had not succeeded in Israel according to his mind, and as the king had commanded.\n28 So the year following Lysias gathered together threescore thousand chosen men, and five thousand horsemen, that he might subdue them.\n29 And they came into Judea, and pitched their tents in Bethoron, and Judas met them with ten thousand men.\n30 And they saw that the army was

the hands of Jonathan the son of Saul and of his armourbearer.\n31 Shut up this army in the hands of thy people Israel, and let them be confounded in their host and their horsemen.\n32 Strike them with fear, and cause the boldness of their strength to languish, and let them quake at their own destruction.\n33 Cast them down with the sword of them that love thee: and let all that know thy name, praise thee with hymns.\n34 And they joined battle: and there fell of the army of Lysias five thousand men.\n35 And when Lysias saw that his men were put to flight, and how bold the Jews were, and that they were ready either to live, or to die manfully, he went to Antioch, and chose soldiers, that they might come again into Judea with greater numbers.\n36 Then Judas, and his brethren said: Behold our enemies are discomfited: let us go up now to cleanse the holy places and to repair them.\n37 And all the army assembled together, and they went up into mount Sion.\n38 And they saw the sanctuary desolate, and the altar profaned, and the gates burnt, and shrubs growing up in the courts as in a forest, or on the mountains, and the chambers joining to the temple thrown down.\n39 And they rent their garments, and made great lamentation, and put ashes on their heads:\n40 And they fell face down to the ground on their faces, and they sounded with the trumpets of alarm, and they cried towards heaven.\n41 Then Judas appointed men to fight against them that were in the castle, till they had cleansed the holy places.\n**42 And he chose priests without blemish, whose will was set upon the law of God:**\n43 And they cleansed the holy places, and took away the stones that had been defiled into an unclean place.\n44 And he considered about the altar of holocausts that had been profaned, what he should do with it.\n45 And a good counsel came into their minds, to pull it down: lest it should be a reproach to them, because the Gentiles had defiled it; so they threw it down.\n46 And they laid up the stones in the mountain of the temple in a convenient place, till there should come a prophet, and give answer concerning them.\n47 Then they took whole stones according to the law, and built a new altar according to the former:\n48 And they built up the holy places, and the things that were within the temple: and they sanctified the temple, and the courts.\n49 And they made new holy vessels, and brought in the candlestick, and the altar of incense, and the table into the temple.\n50 And they put incense upon the altar, and lighted up the lamps that were upon the candlestick, and they gave light in the temple.\n51 And they set the loaves upon the table, and hung up the veils, and finished all the works that they had begun to make.\n52 And they arose before the morning on the five and twentieth day of the ninth month (which is the month of Casleu) in the hundred and forty-eighth year.\n53 And they offered sacrifice according to the law upon the new altar of holocausts which they had made.\n54 According to the time, and according to the day wherein the heathens had defiled it, in the same was it dedicated anew with canticles, and harps, and lutes, and cymbals.\n55 And all the people fell upon their faces, and adored, and blessed up to heaven, him that had prospered them.\n56 And they kept the dedication of the altar eight days, and they offered holocausts with joy, and sacrifices of salvation, and of praise.\n57 And they adorned the front of the temple with crowns of gold, and escutcheons, and they renewed the gates, and the chambers, and hanged doors upon them.\n58 And there was exceeding great joy among the people, and the reproach of the Gentiles was turned away.\n59 And Judas, and his brethren, and all the church of Israel decreed, that the day of the dedication of the altar should be kept in its season from year to year for eight days, from the five and twentieth day of the month of Casleu, with joy and gladness.\n60 They built up also at that time mount Sion, with high walls, and strong towers round about, lest the Gentiles should at any time come, and tread it down as they did before.\n61 And he placed a garrison there to keep it, and he fortified it to secure Bethsura, that the people might have a defence against Idumea.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"If he be able to

you've got in mind is from *1 Samuel*, chapter *17*.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\n*1 Samuel Chapter 17*\n1 Now the Philistines gathering together their troops to battle, assembled at Socho of Juda, and camped between Socho and Azeca in the borders of Dommim.\n2 And Saul and the children of Israel being gathered together came to the valley of Terebinth, and they set the army in array to fight against the Philistines.\n3 And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.\n4 And there went out a man baseborn from the camp of the Philistines named Goliath, of Geth, whose height was six cubits and a span:\n5 And he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was clothed with a coat of mail with scales, and the weight of his coat of mail was five thousand sicles of brass:\n6 And he had greaves of brass on his legs, and a buckler of brass covered his shoulders.\n7 And the staff of his spear was like a weaver's beam, and the head of his spear weighed six hundred sicles of iron: and his armourbearer went before him.\n8 And standing he cried out to the bands of Israel, and said to them: Why are you come out prepared to fight? am not I a Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose out a man of you, and let him come down and fight hand to hand.\n**9 If he be able to fight with me, and kill me, we will be servants to you: but if I prevail against him, and kill him, you shall be servants, and shall serve us.**\n10 And the Philistine said: I have defied the bands of Israel this day: Give me a man, and let him fight with me hand to hand.\n11 And Saul and all the Israelites hearing these words of the Philistine were dismayed, and greatly afraid.\n12 Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem Juda before mentioned, whose name was Isai, who had eight sons, and was an old man in the days of Saul, and of great age among men.\n13 And his three eldest sons followed Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that went to the battle, were Eliab the firstborn, and the second Abinadab, and the third Samma.\n14 But David was the youngest. So the three eldest having followed Saul,\n15 David went, and returned from Saul, to feed his father's flock at Bethlehem.\n16 Now the Philistine came out morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.\n17 And Isai said to David his son: Take for thy brethren an ephi of frumenty, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brethren.\n18 And carry these ten little cheeses to the tribune: and go see thy brethren, if they are well: and learn with whom they are placed.\n19 But Saul, and they, and all the children of Israel were in the valley of Terebinth fighting against the Philistines.\n20 David therefore arose in the morning, and gave the charge of the flock to the keeper: and went away loaded as Isai had commanded him. And he came to the place of Magala, and to the army, which was going out to fight, and shouted for the battle.\n21 For Israel had put themselves in array, and the Philistines who stood against them were prepared.\n22 And David leaving the vessels which he had brought, under the care of the keeper of the baggage, ran to the place of the battle and asked if all things went well with his brethren.\n23 And as he talked with them, that baseborn man whose name was Goliath, the Philistine, of Geth, shewed himself coming up from the camp of the Philistines: and he spoke according to the same words, and David heard them.\n24 And all the Israelites when they saw the man, fled from his face, fearing him exceedingly.\n25 And some one of Israel said: Have you seen this man that is come up, for he is come up to defy Israel. And the man that shall slay him, the king will enrich with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and will make his father's house free from tribute in Israel.\n26 And David spoke to the men that stood by him, saying: What shall be given to the man that shall kill this Philistine, and shall take away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?\n27 And the people answered him the same words saying: These things shall be given to the man that shall slay him.\n28 Now when Eliab his eldest brother heard this, when he was speaking with others, he was angry with David, and said: Why earnest thou hither? and why didst thou leave those few sheep in the desert? I know thy pride, and the wickedness of thy heart: that thou art come down to see the battle.\n29 And David said: What have I done? is there not cause to speak?\n30 And he turned a little aside from him to another: and said the same word. And the people answered him as before.\n31 And the words which David spoke were heard, and were rehearsed before Saul.\n32 And when he was brought to him, he said to him: Let not any man's heart be dismayed in him: I thy servant will go, and will fight against the Philistine.\n33 And Saul said to David: Thou art not able to withstand this Philistine, nor to fight against him: for thou art but a boy, but he is a warrior from his youth.\n34 And David said to Saul: Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, or a bear, and took a ram out of the midst of the flock:\n35 And I pursued after them, and struck them, and delivered it out of their mouth: and they rose up against me, and I caught them by the throat, and I strangled and killed them.\n36 For I thy servant have killed both a lion and a bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be also as one of them. I will go now, and take away the reproach of the people: for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, who hath dared to curse the army of the living God?\n37 And David said: The Lord who delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said to David: Go, and the Lord be with thee.\n38 And Saul clothed David with his garments, and put a helmet of brass upon his head, and armed him with a coat of mail.\n39 And David having girded his sword upon his armour, began to try if he could walk in armour: for he was not accustomed to it. And David said to Saul: I cannot go thus, for I am not used to it. And he laid them off,\n40 And he took his staff, which he had always in his hands: and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them into the shepherd's scrip, which he had with him, and he took a sling in his hand, and went forth against the Philistine.\n41 And the Philistine came on, and drew nigh against David, and his armourbearer before him.\n42 And when the Philistine looked, and beheld David, he despised him. For he was a young man, ruddy, and of a comely countenance.\n43 And the Philistine said to David: Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with a staff? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.\n44 And he said to David: Come to me, and I will give thy flesh to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.\n45 And David said to the Philistine: Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, which thou hast defied.\n46 This day, and the Lord will deliver thee into my hand, and I will slay thee, and take away thy head from thee: and I will give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth: that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.\n47 And all this assembly shall know, that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for it is his battle, and he will deliver you into our hands.\n48 And when the Philistine arose and was coming, and drew nigh to meet David, David made haste, and ran to the fight to meet the Philistine.\n49 And he put his hand into his scrip, and took a stone, and cast it with the sling, and fetching it about struck the Philistine in the forehead: and the stone was fixed in his forehead, and he fell on his face upon the earth.\n50 And David prevailed over the Philistine, with a sling and a stone, and he struck, and slew the Philistine. And as David had no sword in his hand,\n51 He ran, and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath, and slew him, and cut off his head. And the Philistines seeing that their champion was dead, fled away.\n52 And the men of Israel and Juda rising up shouted, and pursued after the Philistines till they came to the valley and to the gates of Accaron, and there fell many wounded of the Philistines in the way of Saraim, and as far as Geth, and as far as Accaron.\n53 And the children of Israel returning, after they had pursued the Philistines, fell upon their camp.\n54 And David taking the head of the Philistine brought it to Jerusalem: but his armour he put in his tent.\n55 Now at the time that Saul saw David going out against the Philistines, he said to Abner the captain of the army: Of what family is this young man descended, Abner? And Abner said: As thy soul liveth, O king, I know not.\n56 And the king said: Inquire thou, whose son this man is.\n57 And when David was returned, after the Philistine was slain, Abner took him, and brought him in before Saul, with the head of the Philistine in his hand.\n58 And Saul said to him: Young man, of what family art thou?

always living to make intercession for us.\n26 For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;\n27 Who needeth not daily (as the other priests) to offer sacrifices first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, in offering himself.\n28 For the law maketh men priests, who have infirmity: but the word of the oath, which was since the law, the Son who is perfected for evermore.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"We have an altar, whereof they have no power to eat who serve the tabernacle.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"We have an altar, whereof they have no power to eat who serve the tabernacle.\" is written in Hebrews 13:10, within the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"He said therefore to them: If he be a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that whereas I was blind, now I see.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from *John*, chapter *9*.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\n*John Chapter 9*\n1 And Jesus passing by, saw a man, who was blind from his birth:\n2 And his disciples asked him: Rabbi, who hath sinned, this man, or his parents, that he should be born blind?\n3 Jesus answered: Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.\n4 I must work the works of him that sent me, whilst it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.\n5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.\n6 When he had said these things, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and spread the clay on his eyes,\n7 And said to him: Go, wash in the pool of Siloe, which is interpreted, Sent.

And there was a division among them.\n17 They say therefore to the blind man again: What sayest thou of him that hath opened thy eyes?

We know that this man is a sinner.\n**25 He said therefore to them: If he be a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that whereas I was blind, now I see.**\n26 They said then to him: What did he to thee? How did he open thy eyes?\n27 He answered them: I have told you already, and you have heard: why would you hear it again? will you also become his disciples?\n28 They reviled him therefore, and said: Be thou his disciple; but we are the disciples of Moses.\n29 We know that God spoke to Moses: but as to this man, we know not from whence he is.\n30 The man answered, and said to them: Why, herein is a wonderful thing, that you know not from whence he is, and he hath opened my eyes.\n31 Now we know that God doth not hear sinners: but if a man be a server of God, and doth his will, him he heareth.\n32 From the beginning of the world it hath not been heard, that any man hath opened the eyes of one born blind.\n33 Unless this man were of God, he could not do any thing.\n34 They answered, and said to him: Thou wast wholly born in sins, and dost thou teach us?

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.\n**22 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. And he drew him out of the lions' den.\n41 But those that had been the cause of his destruction, he cast into the den, and they were devoured in a moment before him.\n42 Then the king said: Let all the inhabitants of the whole earth fear the God of Daniel: for he is the Saviour, working signs, and wonders in the earth: who hath delivered Daniel out of the lions' den.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"Keep his precepts and commandments, which I command thee: that it may be well with thee, and thy children after thee, and thou mayst remain a long time upon the land, which the Lord thy God will give thee.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, the book of Deuteronomy, chapter 4, verse 40 states: \"Keep his precepts and commandments, which I command thee: that it may be well with thee, and thy children after thee, and thou mayst remain a long time upon the land, which the Lord thy God will give thee.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you pinpoint the book and chapter of \"And two little chains of the purest gold linked one to another, which thou shalt put into the hooks.\" for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That one's from *Exodus*, chapter *28*.\n\nHere's the chapter it's part of:\n*Exodus Chapter 28*\n1 Take unto thee also Aaron thy brother with his sons, from among the children of Israel, that they may minister to me in the priest's office: Aaron, Nadab, and Abiu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.\n2 And thou shalt make a holy vesture for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty.\n3 And thou shalt speak to all the wise of heart, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron's vestments, in which he being consecrated may minister to me.\n4 And these shall be the vestments that they shall make: A rational and an ephod, a tunick and a strait linen garment, a mitre and a girdle.

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?\n**14 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": "Leviticus 15:5", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Leviticus 15:5 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"If any man touch his bed, he shall wash his clothes: and being washed with water, he shall be unclean until the evening.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"And Mary Magdalen, and Mary the mother of Joseph, beheld where he was laid.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're asking about is in *Mark*, chapter *15*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*Mark 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?

Thou shalt say to them: My little finger is thicker than the back of my father.\n11 And now my father put a, heavy yoke upon you, but I will add to your yoke: my father beat you with whips, but I will beat you with scorpions.\n12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Roboam the third day, as the king had appointed, saying: Come to me again the third day.\n13 And the king answered the people roughly, leaving the counsel of the old men, which they had given him,\n14 And he spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying: My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to your yoke: my father beat you with whips, but I will beat you with scorpions.\n15 And the king condescended not to the people: for the Lord was turned away from him, to make good his word, which he had spoken in the hand of Ahias the Silonite, to Jeroboam the son of Nabat.\n16 Then the people seeing that the king would not hearken to them, answered him, saying: What portion have we in David? or what inheritance in the son of Isai?

He made also a house for the daughter of Pharao (whom Solomon had taken to wife) of the same work, as this porch,\n9 All of costly stones, which were sawed by a certain rule and measure both within and without: from the foundation to the top of the walls, and without unto the great court.\n10 And the foundations were of costly stones, great stones of ten cubits or eight cubits:\n11 And above there were costly stones, or equal measure, hewed; and, in like manner, planks of cedar:\n12 And the greater court was made round with three rows of hewed stones, and one row of planks of cedar, moreover also in the inner court of the house of the Lord, and in the porch of the house.\n13 And king Solomon sent, and brought Hiram from Tyre,\n14 The son of a widow woman of the tribe of Nephtali, whose father was a Tyrian, an artificer in brass, and full of wisdom, and understanding, and skill to work all work in brass. And when he was come to king Solomon, he wrought all his work.\n15 And he cast two pillars in brass, each pillar was eighteen cubits high: and a line of twelve cubits compassed both the pillars.\n16 He made also two chapiters of molten brass, to be set upon the tops of the pillars: the height of one chapiter was five cubits, and the height of the other chapiter was five cubits:\n17 And a kind of network, and chain work wreathed together with wonderful art. Both the chapiters of the pillars were cast: seven rows of nets were on one chapiter, and seven nets on the other chapiter.\n18 And he made the pillars, and two rows round about each network to cover the chapiters, that were upon the top, with pomegranates: and in like manner did he to the other chapiter.\n19 And the chapiters that were upon the top of the pillars, were of lily work in the porch, of four cubits.\n20 And again other chapiters in the top of the pillars above, according to the measure of the pillar over against the network: and of pomegranates there were two hundred in rows round about the other chapiter.\n21 And he set up the two pillars in the porch of the temple: and when he had set up the pillar on the right hand, he called the name thereof Jachin: in like manner he set up the second pillar, and called the name thereof Booz.\n22 And upon the tops of the pillars he made lily work: so the work of the pillars was finished.\n23 He made also a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round all about; the height of it was five cubits, and a line of thirty cubits compassed it round about.\n24 And a graven work under the brim of it compassed it, for ten cubits going about the sea: there were two rows cast of chamfered sculptures.\n25 And it stood upon twelve oxen, of which three looked towards the north, and three towards the west, and three towards the south, and three towards the east, and the sea was above upon them, and their hinder parts were all hid within.\n26 And the laver was a handbreadth thick: and the brim thereof was like the brim of a cup, or the leaf of a crisped lily: it contained two thousand bates.\n27 And he made ten bases of brass, every base was four cubits in length, and four cubits in breadth, and three cubits high.\n28 And the work itself of the bases, was intergraven: and there were gravings between the joinings.\n29 And between the little crowns and the ledges were lions, and oxen, and cherubims: and in the joinings likewise above: and under the lions and oxen, as it were bands of brass hanging down.\n30 And every base had four wheels, and axletrees of brass: and at the four sides were undersetters under the laver molten, looking one against another.\n31 The mouth also of the laver within, was in the top of the chapiter: and that which appeared without, was of one cubit all round, and together it was one cubit and a half: and in the corners of the pillars were divers engravings: and the spaces between the pillars were square, not round.\n32 And the four wheels, which were at the four corners of the base, were joined one to another under the base: the height of a wheel was a cubit and a half.\n33 And they were such wheels as are used to be made in a chariot: and their axletrees, and spokes, and strakes, and naves, were all east.\n34 And the four undersetters that were at every corner of each base, were of the base itself cast and joined together.\n35 And in the top of the base there was a round compass of half a cubit, so wrought that the laver might be set thereon, having its gravings, and divers sculptures of itself.\n36 He engraved also in those plates, which were of brass. and in the corners, cherubims, and lions, and palm trees, in likeness of a man standing, so that they seemed not to be engraven, but added round about.\n37 After this manner he made ten bases, of one casting and measure, and the like graving.\n38 He made also ten lavers of brass: one laver contained four bases, and was of four cubits: and upon every base, in all ten, he put as many lavers.\n39 And he set the ten bases, five on the right side of the temple, and five on the left: and the sea he put on the right side of the temple over against the east southward.\n40 And Hiram made caldrons, and shovels, and basins, and finished all the work of king Solomon in the temple of the Lord.\n41 The two pillars and the two cords of the chapiters, upon the chapiters of the pillars: and the two networks, to cover the two cords, that were upon the top of the pillars.\n42 And four hundred pomegranates for the two networks: two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the cords of the chapiters, which were upon the tops of the pillars.\n43 And the ten bases, and the ten lavers on the bases.\n44 And one sea, and twelve oxen under the sea.\n45 And the caldrons, and the shovels, and the basins.

you're asking about is in *1 Maccabees*, chapter *13*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*1 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.

He said: Under a mastic tree.\n55 And Daniel said: Well hast thou lied against thy own head: for behold the angel of God having received the sentence of him, shall cut thee in two.\n56 And having put him aside, he commanded that the other should come, and he said to him: O thou seed of Chanaan, and not of Juda, beauty hath deceived thee, and lust hath perverted thy heart:\n57 Thus did you do to the daughters of Israel, and they for fear conversed with you: but a daughter of Juda would not abide your wickedness.\n58 Now therefore tell me, under what tree didst thou take them conversing together. And he answered: Under a holm tree.\n59 And Daniel said to him: Well hast thou also lied against thy own head: for the angel of the Lord waiteth with a sword to cut thee in two, and to destroy you.\n60 With that all the assembly cried out with a loud voice, and they blessed God, who saveth them that trust in him.\n61 And they rose up against the two elders, (for Daniel had convicted them of false witness by their own mouth,) and they did to them as they had maliciously dealt against their neighbour,\n62 To fulfill the law of Moses: and they put them to death, and innocent blood was saved in that day.\n63 But Helcias and his wife praised God, for their daughter Susanna, with Joakim her husband, and all her kindred, because there was no dishonesty found in her.\n64 And Daniel became great in the sight of the people from that day, and thenceforward.\n65 And king Astyages was gathered to his fathers, and Cyrus the Persian received his kingdom.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you quote Genesis 21:32 for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Genesis 21:32 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"And they made a league for the well of oath.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the content of Genesis 48:17?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, Genesis chapter 48, verse 17 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"And Joseph seeing that his father had put his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, was much displeased: and taking his father's hand he tried to lift it from Ephraim's head, and to remove it to the head of Manasses.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the scriptural address for \"For every one that is a partaker of milk, is unskillful in the word of justice: for he is a little child.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You can find \"For every one that is a partaker of milk, is unskillful in the word of justice: for he is a little child.\" in the New Testament, specifically in Hebrews 5:13.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the content of Isaiah 36:3?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From the Old Testament, in Isaiah 36:3 (Douay Rheims), we read:\n\"And there went out to him Eliacim the son of Helcias, who was over the house, and Sobna the scribe, and Joahe the son of Asaph the recorder.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Scripture from Isaiah 49:2?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Isaiah 49:2 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword: in the shadow of his hand he hath protected me, and hath made me as a chosen arrow: in his quiver he hath hidden me.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- **Book:** John\n- **Chapter:** 7\n- **Verse:** 17", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the New Testament at John 7:17 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"If any man do the will of him; he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- **Book:** John\n- **Chapter:** 14\n- **Verse:** 28", "role": "user" }, { "content": "John 14:28 from the New Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"You have heard that I said to you: I go away, and I come unto you.

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

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

And when they were come to the vineyards of the town, behold a young lion met him raging and roaring.\n6 And the spirit of the Lord came upon Samson, and he tore the lion as he would have torn a kid in pieces, having nothing at all in his hand: and he would not tell this to his father and mother.\n7 And he went down and spoke to the woman that had pleased his eyes.\n8 And after some days returning to take her, he went aside to see the carcass of the lion, and behold there was a swarm of bees in the mouth of the lion and a honeycomb.\n9 And when be had taken it in his hands, he went on eating: and coming to his father and mother, he gave them of it, and they ate: but he would not tell them, that he had taken the honey from the body of the lion.\n10 So his father went down to the woman, and made a feast for his son Samson: for so the young men used to do.\n11 And when the citizens of that place saw him, they brought him thirty companions to be with him.\n12 And Samson said to them: I will propose to you a riddle, which if you declare unto me within the seven days of the feast, I will give you thirty shirts, and as many coats:\n13 But if you shall not be able to declare it, you shall give me thirty shirts and the same number of coats.

And I swore to thee, and I entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God: and thou becamest mine.\n9 And I washed thee with water, and cleansed away thy blood from thee: and I anointed thee with oil.\n10 And I clothed thee with embroidery, and shod thee with violet coloured shoes: and I girded thee about with fine linen, and clothed thee with fine garments.\n11 I decked thee also with ornaments, and put bracelets on thy hands, and a chain about thy neck.\n12 And I put a jewel upon thy forehead and earrings in thy ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.\n13 And thou wast adorned with gold, and silver, and wast clothed with fine linen, and embroidered work, and many colours: thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil, and wast made exceeding beautiful: and wast advanced to be a queen.\n14 And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty: for thou wast perfect through my beauty, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God.\n15 But trusting in thy beauty, thou playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and thou hast prostituted thyself to every passenger, to be his.\n16 And taking of thy garments thou hast made thee high places sewed together on each side: and hast played the harlot upon them, as hath not been done before, nor shall be hereafter.\n17 And thou tookest thy beautiful vessels, of my gold, and my silver, which I gave thee, and thou madest thee images of men, and hast committed fornication with them.\n18 And thou tookest thy garments of divers colours, and coveredst them: and settest my oil and my sweet incense before them.\n19 And my bread which I gave thee, the fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou hast set before them for a sweet odour; and it was done, saith the Lord God.\n20 And thou hast taken thy sons, and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne to me: and hast sacrificed the same to them to be devoured. Is thy fornication small?\n21 Thou hast sacrificed and given my children to them, consecrating them by fire.\n22 And after all thy abominations, and fornications, thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked, and full of confusion, trodden under foot in thy own blood.\n23 And it came to pass after all thy wickedness (woe, woe to thee, saith the Lord God)\n24 That thou didst also build thee a common stew, and madest thee a brothel house in every street.\n25 At every head of the way thou hast set up a sign of thy prostitution: and hast made thy beauty to be abominable: and hast prostituted thyself to every one that passed by, and hast multiplied thy fornications.\n26 And thou hast committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, men of large bodies, and hast multiplied thy fornications to provoke me.\n27 Behold, I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and will take away thy justification: and I will deliver thee up to the will of the daughters of the Philistines that hate thee, that are ashamed of thy wicked way.\n28 Thou hast also committed fornication with the Assyrians, because thou wast not yet satisfied: and after thou hadst played the harlot

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

strip thee of thy garments, and shall take away the vessels of thy beauty: and leave thee naked, and full of disgrace.\n40 And they shall bring upon thee a multitude, and they shall stone thee with stones, and shall slay thee with their swords.\n41 And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and shall execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and thou shalt cease from fornication, and shalt give no hire any more.\n42 And my indignation shall rest in thee: and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will cease and be angry no more.\n43 Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast provoked me in all these things: wherefore I also have turned thy ways upon thy head, saith the Lord God, and I have not done according to thy wicked deeds in all thy abominations.\n44 Behold every one that useth a common proverb, shall use this against thee, saying: As the mother was, so also is her daughter.\n45 Thou art thy mother's daughter, that cast off her husband, and her children: and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who cast off their husbands, and their children: your mother was a Cethite, and your father an Amorrhite.\n46 And thy elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister that dwelleth at thy right hand is Sodom, and her daughters.\n47 But neither hast thou walked in their ways, nor hast thou done a little less than they according to their wickednesses: thou hast done almost more wicked things than they in all thy ways.\n48 As I live, saith the Lord God, thy sister Sodom herself, and her daughters, have not done as thou hast done, and thy daughters.\n49 Behold this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance, and the idleness of her, and of her daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.\n50 And they were lifted up, and committed abominations before me: and I took them away as thou hast seen.\n51 And Samaria committed not half thy sins: but thou hast surpassed them with thy crimes, and hast justified thy sisters by all thy abominations which thou hast done.\n52 Therefore do thou also bear thy confusion, thou that hast surpassed thy sisters with thy sins, doing more wickedly than they: for they are justified above thee, therefore be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, thou that hast justified thy sisters.\n53 And I will bring back and restore them by bringing back Sodom, with her daughters, and by bringing back Samaria, and her daughters: and I will bring those that return of thee in the midst of them.\n54 That thou mayest bear thy shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, comforting them.\n55 And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and thou and thy daughters shall return to your ancient state.\n56 And Sodom thy sister was not heard of in thy mouth, in the day of thy pride,\n57 Before thy malice was laid open: as it is at this time, making thee a reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all the daughters of Palestine round about thee, that encompass thee on all sides.\n58 Thou hast borne thy wickedness, and thy disgrace, saith the Lord God.\n59 For thus saith the Lord God: I will deal with thee, as thou hast despised the oath, in breaking the covenant:\n60 And I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth: and I will establish with thee an everlasting covenant.\n61 And thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed: when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thy elder and thy younger: and I will give them to thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.\n62 And I will establish my covenant with thee: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord,\n63 That thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and mayest no more open thy mouth because of thy confusion, when I shall be pacified toward thee for all that thou hast

Semeias, saying: Because they are humbled, I will not destroy them, and I will give them a little help, and my wrath shall not fall upon Jerusalem by the hand of Sesac.\n8 But yet they shall serve him, that they may know the difference between my service, and the service of a kingdom of the earth.\n9 So Sesac king of Egypt departed from Jerusalem, taking away the treasures of the house of the Lord, and of the king's house, and he took all with him, and the golden shields that Solomon had made,\n10 Instead of which the king made brazen ones, and delivered them to the captains of the shieldbearers, who guarded the entrance of the palace.\n11 And when the king entered into the house of the Lord, the shieldbearers came and took them, and brought them back again to their armoury.\n12 But yet because they were humbled, the wrath of the Lord turned away from them, and they were not utterly destroyed: for even in Juda there were found good works.\n13 King Roboam therefore was strengthened in Jerusalem, and reigned: he was one and forty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord chose out of all the tribes of Israel, to establish his name there: and the name of his mother was Naama an Ammonitess.\n14 But he did evil, and did not prepare his heart to seek the Lord.\n15 Now the acts of Roboam first and last

verse you're asking about is in *Jeremiah*, chapter *44*.\n\nHere's the complete chapter text:\n*Jeremiah Chapter 44*\n1 The word that came to Jeremias, concerning all the Jews that dwelt in the land of Egypt, dwelling in Magdal, and in Taphnis, and in Memphis, and in the land of Phatures, saying:\n2 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: You have seen all this evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Juda: and behold they are desolate this day, and there is not an inhabitant in them:\n3 Because of the wickedness which they have committed, to provoke me to wrath, and to go and offer sacrifice, and worship other gods, which neither they, nor you, nor your fathers knew.\n4 And I sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising early, and sending, and saying: Do not commit this abominable thing, which I hate.\n5 But they heard not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their evil ways, and not to sacrifice to strange gods.\n6 Wherefore my indignation and my fury was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem: and they are turned to desolation and waste, as at this day.\n7 And now thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Why do you commit this great evil against your own souls, that there should die of you man and woman, child and suckling out of the midst of Juda, and no remnant should be left you:\n8 In that you provoke me to wrath with the works of your hands, by sacrificing to other gods in the land of Egypt, into which you are come to dwell there: and that you should perish, and be a curse, and a reproach to all the nations of the earth?\n9 Have you forgotten the evils of your fathers, and the evils of the kings of Juda, and the evils of their wives, and your evils, and the evils of your wives, that they have done in the land of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem?\n10 They are not cleansed even to this day: neither have they feared, nor walked in the law of the Lord, nor in my commandments, which I set before you and your fathers.\n11 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Behold I will set my face upon you for evil: and I will destroy all Juda.\n12 And I will take the remnant of Juda that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt, and to dwell there: and they shall be all consumed in the land of Egypt: they shall fall by the sword, and by the famine: and they shall be consumed from the least even to the greatest, by the sword, and by the famine shall they die: and they shall be for an execration, and for a wonder, and for a curse, and for a reproach.\n13 And I will visit them that dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have visited Jerusalem by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence.\n14 And there shall be none that shall escape, and remain of the remnant of the Jews that are gone to sojourn in the land of Egypt: and that shall return into the land of Juda, to which they have a desire to return to dwell there: there shall none return but they that shall flee.\n15 Then all the men that knew that their wives sacrificed to other gods: and all the women of whom there stood by a great multitude, and all the people of them that dwelt in the land of Egypt in Phatures, answered Jeremias, saying:\n16 As for the word which thou hast spoken to us in the name of the Lord, we will not hearken to thee:\n17 But we will certainly do every word that shall proceed out of our own mouth, to sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we and our fathers have done, our kings, and our princes in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem: and we were filled with bread, and it was well with us, and we saw no evil.\n18 But since we left off to offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword, and by famine.\n19 And if we offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and pour out drink offerings to her: did we make cakes to worship her, to pour out drink offerings to her, without our husbands?\n20 And Jeremias spoke to all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people which had given him that answer, saying:\n21 Was it not the sacrifice that you offered in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and Sour fathers, your kings, and your princes, and the people of the land, which the Lord hath remembered, and hath it not entered into his heart?\n22 So that the Lord could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which you have committed: therefore your land is become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day.\n23 Because you have sacrificed to idols, and have sinned against the Lord: and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord, and have not walked in his law, and in his commandments, and in his testimonies: therefore are these evils come upon you, as at this day.\n24 And Jeremias said to all the people, and to all the women: Hear ye the word of the Lord, all Juda, you that dwell in the land of Egypt:\n25 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, saying: You and your wives have spoken with your mouth, and fulfilled with your hands, saying: Let us perform our vows which we have made, to offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her: you have fulfilled your vows, and have performed them indeed.\n26 Therefore hear ye the word of the Lord, all Juda, you that dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold I have sworn by my great name, saith the Lord: that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Juda, in the land of Egypt, saying: The Lord God liveth.\n27 Behold I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men of Juda that are in the land of Egypt, shall be consumed, by the sword, and by famine, till there be an end of them.\n28 And a few men that shall flee from the sword, shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Juda: and all the remnant of Juda that are gone into the land of Egypt to dwell there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine, or theirs.\n**29 And this shall be a sign to you, saith the Lord, that I will punish you in this place: that you may know that my words shall be accomplished indeed against you for evil.**\n30 Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will deliver Pharao Ephree king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life: as I delivered Sedecias king of Juda into the hand of Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon his enemy, and that sought his life.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"And Josue gave orders, saying: Open the mouth of

you:\n*Joshua Chapter 10*\n1 When Adonisedec king of Jerusalem had heard these things, to wit, that Josue had taken Hai, and had destroyed it, (for as he had done to Jericho and the king thereof, so did he to Hai, and its king,) and that the Gabaonites were gone over to Israel, and were their confederates,\n2 He was exceedingly afraid. For Gabaon was a great city, and one of the royal cities, and greater than the town of Hai, and all its fighting men were most valiant.\n3 Therefore Adonisedec king of Jerusalem sent to Oham king of Hebron, and to Pharam king of Jerimoth, and to Japhia king of Lachis, and to Dabir king of Eglon, saying:\n4 Come up to me, and bring help, that we may take Gabaon, because it hath gone over to Josue, and to the children of Israel.\n5 So the five kings of the Amorrhites being assembled together went up: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jerimoth, the king of Lachis, the king of Eglon, they and their armies, and camped about Gabaon, laying siege to it.\n6 But the inhabitants of the city of Gabaon which was besieged, sent to Josue, who then abode in the camp at Galgal, and said to him: Withdraw not thy hands from helping thy servants: come up quickly and save us, and bring us succour: for all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwell in the mountains, are gathered together against us.\n7 And Josue went up from Galgal, and all the army of the warriors with him, most valiant men.\n8 And the Lord said to Josue: Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thy hands: none of them shall be able to stand against thee.\n9 So Josue going up from Galgal all the night, came upon them suddenly.\n10 And the Lord troubled them at the sight of Israel: and he slew them with a great slaughter in Gabaon, and pursued them by the way of the ascent to Beth-horon, and cut them off all the way to Azeca and Maceda.\n11 And when they were fleeing from the children of Israel, and were in the descent of Beth-horon, the Lord cast down upon them great stones from heaven as far as Azeca: and many more were killed with the hailstones than were slain by the swords of the children of Israel.\n12 Then Josue spoke to the Lord, in the day that he delivered the Amorrhite in the sight of the children of Israel, and he said before them: Move not, O sun, toward Gabaon, nor thou, O moon, toward the valley of Ajalon.\n13 And the sun and the moon stood still, till the people revenged themselves of their enemies. Is not this written in the book of the just? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down the space of one day.\n14 There was not before nor after so long a day, the Lord obeying the voice of a man, and fighting for Israel.\n15 And Josue returned with all Israel into the camp of Galgal.\n16 For the five kings were fled, and had hidden themselves in a cave of the city of Maceda.\n17 And it was told Josue that the five kings were found hidden in a cave of the city of Maceda.\n18 And he commanded them that were with him, saying: Roll great stones to the mouth of the cave, and set careful men, to keep them shut up:\n19 And stay you not, but pursue after the enemies, and kill all the hindermost of them as they flee, and do not suffer them whom the Lord God hath delivered into your hands to shelter themselves in their cities.\n20 So the enemies being slain with a great slaughter, and almost utterly consumed, they that were able to escape from Israel, entered into fenced cities.\n21 And all the army returned to Josue in Maceda, where the camp then was, in good health and without the loss of any one: and no man durst move his tongue against the children of Israel.\n**22 And Josue gave orders, saying: Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth to me the five kings that lie hid therein.**\n23 And the ministers did as they were commanded: and they brought out to him the five kings out of the cave: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jerimoth, the king of Lachis, the king of Eglon.\n24 And when they were Drought out to him, he called all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the army that were with him: Go, and set your feet on the necks of these kings. And when they had gone, and put their feet upon the necks of them lying under them,\n25 He said again to them: Fear not, neither be ye dismayed, take courage and be strong: for so will the Lord do to all your enemies, against whom you fight.\n26 And Josue struck, and slew them, and hanged them upon five gibbets, and they hung until the evening.\n27 And when the sun was down, he commanded the soldiers to take them down from the gibbets. And after they were taken down, they cast them into the cave where they had lain hid, and put great stones at the mouth thereof, which remain until this day.\n28 The same day Josue took Maceda and destroyed it, with the edge of the sword, and killed the king and all the inhabitants thereof: he left not in it the least remains. And he did to the king of Maceda, as he had done to the king of Jericho.\n29 And he passed from Maceda with all Israel to Lebna, and fought against it:\n30 And the Lord delivered it with the king thereof into the hands of Israel: and they destroyed the city with the edge of the sword, and all the inhabitants thereof. They left not in it any remains. And they did to the king of Lebna, as they had done to the king of Jericho.\n31 From Lebna he passed unto Lachis, with all Israel: and investing it with his army, besieged it.\n32 And the Lord delivered Lachis into the hands of Israel, and he took it the following day, and put it to the sword, and every soul that was in it, as he had done to Lebna.\n33 At that time Horam king of Gazer, came up to succour Lachis: and Josue slew him with all his people, so as to leave none alive.\n34 And he passed from Lachis to Eglon, and surrounded it,\n35 And took it the same day: and put to the sword all the souls that were in it, according to all that he had done to Lachis.\n36 He went up also with all Israel from Eglon to Hebron, and fought against it:\n37 Took it, and destroyed it with the edge of the sword: the king also thereof, and all the towns of that country, and all the souls that dwelt in it: he left not therein any remains: as he had done to Eglon, so did he also to Hebron, putting to the sword all that he found in it.\n38 Returning from thence to Dabir,\n39 He took it and destroyed it: the king also thereof and all the towns round about he destroyed with the edge of the sword: he left not in it any remains: as he had done to Hebron and Lebna and to their kings, so did he to Dabir and to the king thereof.\n40 So Josue conquered all the country of the hills and of the south and of the plain, and of Asedoth, with their kings: he left not any remains therein, but slew all that breathed, as the Lord the God of Israel had commanded him,\n41 From Cadesbarne even to Gaza. All the land of Gosen even to Gabaon,\n42 And all their kings, and their lands he took and wasted at one onset: for the Lord the God of Israel fought for him.\n43 And he returned with all Israel to the place of the camp in Galgal.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the reference (book, chapter, verse) for \"And after the days of her purification, according to the law of Moses, were accomplished, they carried him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord:\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Bible, the verse \"And after the days of her purification, according to the law of Moses, were accomplished, they carried him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord:\" can be found in the book of Luke, chapter 2, verse 22 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the scriptural address for \"And after that they durst not ask him any more questions.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture \"And after that they durst not ask him any more questions.\" is located in Luke 20:40 of the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "In what book, at what chapter and verse, does \"And assembling together all the chief priests and the scribes of the people, he inquired of them where Christ should be born.\" appear?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of Matthew, chapter 2, verse 4 of the New Testament, you'll find \"And assembling together all the chief priests and the scribes of the people, he inquired of them where Christ should be born.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"Arise ye, and depart, for there is no rest here for you.

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. And every man shall receive his own reward, according to his own labour.\n9 For we are God's coadjutors: you are God's husbandry; you are God's building.\n**10 According to the grace of God that is given to me, as a wise architect, I have laid the foundation; and another buildeth thereon.

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 chapter and book is the verse \"And when Elias heard it, he covered his face with his mantle, and coming forth stood in the entering in of the cave, and behold a voice unto him, saying: What dost thou here, Elias?

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

And to these was Solomon joined with a most ardent love.\n3 And he had seven hundred wives as queens, and three hundred concubines: and the women turned away his heart.\n4 And when he was now old, his heart was turned away by women to follow strange gods: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David his father.\n5 But Solomon worshipped Astarthe the goddess of the Sidonians, and Moloch the idol of the ammonites.\n6 And Solomon did that which was net pleasing before the Lord, and did not fully follow the Lord, as David his father.\n7 Then Solomon built a temple for Chamos the idol of Moab, on the hill that is over against Jerusalem, and for Moloch the idol of the children of Ammon.\n8 And he did in this manner for all his wives that were strangers, who burnt incense, and offered sacrifice to their gods.\n9 And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because his mind was turned away from the Lord the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,\n10 And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not follow strange gods: but he kept not the things which the Lord commanded him.\n11 The Lord therefore said to Solomon: Because thou hast done this, and hast not kept my covenant, and my precepts, which I have commanded thee, I will divide and rend thy kingdom, and will give it to thy servant.\n12 Nevertheless in thy days I will not do it, for David thy father's sake: but I will rend it out of the hand of thy son.\n13 Neither will I take away the whole kingdom, but I will give one tribe to thy son for the sake of David my servant, and Jerusalem which I have chosen.\n14 And the Lord raised up an adversary to Solomon, Adad the Edomite of the king's seed, in Edom.\n15 For when David was in Edom, and Joab the general of the army was gone up to bury them that were slain, and had killed every male in Edom,\n16 (For Joab remained there six months with all Israel, till he had slain every male in Edom,)\n17 Then Adad fled, he and certain Edomites, of his father's servants with him, to go into Egypt: and Adad was then a little boy.\n18 And they arose out of Madian, and came into Pharan, and they took men with them from Pharan, and went into Egypt to Pharao the king of Egypt: who gave him a house, and appointed him victuals, and assigned him land.\n19 And Adad found great favour before Pharao, insomuch that he gave him to wife, the own sister of his wife Taphnes the queen.\n20 And the sister of Taphnes bore him his son Genubath, and Taphnes brought him up in the house of Pharao: and Genubath dwelt with Pharao among his children.\n21 And when Adad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab the general of the army was dead, he said to Pharao: Let me depart, that I may go to my own country.\n**22 And Pharao said to him: Why, what is wanting to thee with me, that thou seekest to go to thy own country? But he answered: Nothing: yet I beseech thee to let me go.**\n23 God also raised up against him an adversary, Razon the son of Eliada, who had fled from his master Adarezer the king of Soba:\n24 And he gathered men against him, and he became a captain of robbers, when David slew them of Soba: and they went to Damascus, and dwelt there, and they made him king in Damascus.\n25 And he was an adversary to Israel, all the days of Solomon: and this is the evil of Adad, and his hatred against Israel, and he reigned in Syria.\n26 Jeroboam also the son of Nabat an Ephrathite of Sareda, a servant of Solomon, whose mother was named Sarua, a widow woman, lifted up his hand against the king.\n27 And this is the cause of his rebellion against him, for Solomon built Mello, and filled up the breach of the city of David his father.\n28 And Jeroboam was a valiant and mighty man: and Solomon seeing him a young man ingenious and industrious, made him chief over the tributes of all the house of Joseph.\n29 So it came to paste at that time, that Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, and the prophet Ahias the Silonite, clad with a new garment, found him in the way: and they two were alone in the held.\n30 And Ahias taking his new garment, wherewith he was clad, divided it into twelve parts:\n31 And he said to Jeroboam: Take to thee ten pieces: for thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Behold I will rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and will give thee ten tribes.\n32 But one tribe shall remain to him for the sake of my servant David, and Jerusalem the city, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel:\n33 Because he hath forsaken me, and hath adored Astarthe the goddess of the Sidonians, and Chamos the god of Moab, and Moloch the god of the children of Ammon: and hath not walked in my ways, to do justice before me, and to keep my precepts, and judgments as did David his father.\n34 Yet I will not take away all the kingdom out of his hand, but I will make him prince all the days of his life, for David my servant's sake, whom I chose, who kept my commandments and my precepts.\n35 But I will take away the kingdom out of his son's hand and will give thee ten tribes:\n36 And to his son I will give one tribe, that there may remain a lamp for my servant David before me always in Jerusalem the city which I have chosen, that my name might be there.\n37 And I will take thee, and thou shalt reign over all that thy soul desireth, and thou shalt be king over Israel.\n38 If then thou wilt hearken to all that I shall command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do what is right before me, keeping my commandments and my precepts, as David my servant did: I will be with thee, and will build thee up a faithful house, as I built a house for David, and I will deliver Israel to thee:\n39 And I will for this afflict the seed of David, but yet not for ever.\n40 Solomon therefore sought to kill Jeroboam: but he arose, and fled into Egypt to Sesac the king of Egypt, and was in Egypt till the death of Solomon.\n41 And the rest of the words of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom: behold they are all written in the book of the words of the days of Solomon.\n42 And the days that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel, were forty years.\n43 And Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David his father, and Roboam his son reigned in his stead.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the reference (book, chapter, verse) for \"Then Solomon offered holocausts to the Lord upon the altar of the Lord which he had built before the porch,\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The quote \"Then Solomon offered holocausts to the Lord upon the altar of the Lord which he had built before the porch,\" is from 2 Chronicles 8:12 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the content of 2 Kings 14:11?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**The Old Testament**\n*2 Kings 14:11 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"But Amasias did not rest satisfied.

way.\n14 And she increased her fornications: and when she had seen men painted on the wall, the images of the Chaldeans set forth in colours,\n15 And girded with girdles about their reins, and with dyed turbans on their heads, the resemblance of all the captains, the likeness of the sons of Babylon, and of the land of the Chaldeans wherein they were born,\n16 She doted upon them with the lust of her eyes, and she sent messengers to them into Chaldea.\n17 And when the sons of Babylon were come to her to the bed of love, they defiled her with their fornications, and she was polluted by them, and her soul was glutted with them.\n18 And she discovered her fornications, and discovered her disgrace: and my soul was alienated from her, as my soul was alienated from her sister.\n19 For she multiplied her fornications, remembering the days of her youth, in which she played the harlot in the land of Egypt.\n20 And she was mad with lust after lying with them whose flesh is as the flesh of asses: and whose issue as the issue of horses.\n21 And thou hast renewed the wickedness of thy youth, when thy breasts were pressed in Egypt, and the paps of thy virginity broken.\n22 Therefore, Ooliba, thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will raise up against thee all thy lovers with whom thy soul hath been glutted: and I will gather them together against thee round about.\n23 The children of

Do this for a commemoration of me.**\n20 In like manner the chalice also, after he had supped, saying: This is the chalice, the new testament in my blood, which shall be shed for you.\n21 But yet behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.\n22 And the Son of man indeed goeth, according to that which is determined: but yet, woe to that man by whom he shall be betrayed.\n23 And they began to inquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.\n24 And there was also a strife amongst them, which of them should seem to be the greater.\n25 And he said to them: The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and they that have power over them, are called beneficent.\n26 But you not so: but he that is the greater among you, let him become as the younger; and he that is the leader, as he that serveth.\n27 For which is greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that serveth? Is it not he that sitteth at table? But I am in the midst of you, as he that serveth:\n28 And you are they who have continued with me in my temptations:\n29 And I dispose to you, as my Father hath disposed to me, a kingdom;\n30 That you may eat and drink at my table, in my kingdom: and may sit upon thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.\n31 And the Lord said: Simon, Simon, behold Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:\n32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and thou, being once converted, confirm thy brethren.\n33 Who said to him: Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.\n34 And he said: I say to thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, till thou thrice deniest that thou knowest me. And he said to them:\n35 When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, did you want anything?\n36 But they said: Nothing. Then said he unto them: But now he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a scrip; and he that hath not, let him sell his coat, and buy a sword.\n37 For I say to you, that this that is written must yet be fulfilled in me: And with the wicked was he reckoned. For the things concerning me have an end.\n38 But they said: Lord, behold here are two swords. And he said to them, It is enough.\n39 And going out, he went, according to his custom, to the mount of Olives. And his disciples also followed him.\n40 And when he was come to the place, he said to them: Pray, lest ye enter into temptation.\n41 And he was withdrawn away from them a stone's cast; and kneeling down, he prayed,\n42 Saying: Father, if thou wilt, remove this chalice from me: but yet not my will, but thine be done.\n43 And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. 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": "What's the content of Psalm 36:34?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Psalm 36:34 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"Expect the Lord and keep his way: and he will exalt thee to inherit the land: when the sinners shall perish thou shalt see.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Sirach 16:16", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Sirach 16:16 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"Say not: I shall be hidden from God. and who shall remember me from on high?\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you quote Zechariah 7:13 for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Zechariah chapter 7, verse 13, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And it came to pass that as he spoke, and they heard not: so shall they cry, and I will not hear, saith the Lord of hosts.\"", "role": "assistant" } ]

But Jesus again answering, saith to them: Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches, to enter into the kingdom of God?\n25 It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.\n26 Who wondered the more, saying among themselves: Who then can be saved?\n27 And Jesus looking on them, saith: With men it is impossible; but not with God: for all things are possible with God.\n28 And Peter began to say unto him: Behold, we have left all things, and have followed thee.\n29 Jesus answering, said: Amen I say to you, there is no man who hath left house or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or children, or lands, for my sake and for the gospel,\n30 Who shall not receive an hundred times as much, now in this time; houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions: and in the world to come life everlasting.\n31 But many that are first, shall be last: and the last, first.\n32 And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem: and Jesus went before them, and they were astonished; and following were afraid. And taking again the twelve, he began to tell them the things that should befall him.\n33 Saying: Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be betrayed to the chief priests, and to the scribes and ancients, and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles.\n34 And they shall mock him, and spit on him, and scourge him, and kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.\n35 And James and John the sons of Zebedee, come to him, saying: Master, we desire that whatsoever we shall ask, thou wouldst do it for us:\n36 But he said to them: What would you that I should do for you?\n37 And they said: Grant to us, that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.\n38 And Jesus said to them: You know not what you ask. Can you drink of the chalice that I drink of: or be baptized with the baptism wherewith I am baptized?\n39 But they said to him: We can. And Jesus saith to them: You shall indeed drink of the chalice that I drink of: and with the baptism wherewith I am baptized, you shall be baptized.\n40 But to sit on my right hand, or on my left, is not mine to give to you, but to them for whom it is prepared.\n41 And the ten hearing it, began to be much displeased at James and John.\n42 But Jesus calling them, saith to them: You know that they who seem to rule over the Gentiles, lord it over them: and their princes have power over them.\n43 But it is not so among you: but whosoever will be greater, shall be your minister.\n44 And whosoever will be first among you, shall be the servant of all.\n45 For the Son of man also is not come to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a redemption for many.\n46 And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho, with his disciples, and a very great multitude, Bartimeus the blind man, the son of Timeus, sat by the way side begging.\n47 Who when he had heard, that it was Jesus of Nazareth, began to cry out, and to say: Jesus son of David, have mercy on me.\n48 And many rebuked him, that he might hold his peace; but he cried a great deal the more: Son of David, have mercy on me.\n49 And Jesus, standing still, commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying to him: Be of better comfort: arise, he calleth thee.\n50 Who casting off his garment leaped up, and came to him.\n51 And Jesus answering, said to him: What wilt thou that I should do to thee? And the blind man said to him: Rabboni, that I may see.\n52 And Jesus saith to him: Go thy way, thy faith hath made thee whole.

So he rose up and came to Bethsan.\n41 And Jonathan went out to meet him with forty thousand men chosen for battle, and came to Bethsan.\n42 Now when Tryphon saw that Jonathan came with a great army, he durst not stretch forth his hand against him,\n43 But received him with honour, and commended him to all his friends, and gave him presents: and he commanded his troops to obey him, as himself.\n44 And he said to Jonathan: Why hast thou troubled all the people, whereas we have no war?\n45 Now therefore send them back to their own houses: and choose thee a few men that may be with thee, and come with me to Ptolemais, and I will deliver it to thee, and the rest of the strong holds, and the army, and all that have any charge, and I will return and go away: for this is the cause of my coming.\n46 And Jonathan believed him, and did as he said: and sent away his army, and they departed into the land of Juda:\n47 But he kept with him three thousand men: of whom he sent two thousand into Galilee, and one thousand went with him.\n48 Now as soon as Jonathan entered into Ptolemais, they of Ptolemais shut the gates of the city, and took him: and all them that came in with him they slew with the sword.\n49 Then Tryphon sent an army and horsemen into Galilee, and into the great plain to destroy all Jonathan's company.\n50 But they, when they understood that Jonathan and all that were with him were taken and slain, encouraged one another, and went out ready for battle.\n51 Then they that had come after them, seeing that they stood for their lives, returned back.\n52 Whereupon they all came peaceably into the land of Juda.

Jesbaham sitting in the chair was the wisest chief among the three, he was like the most tender little worm of the wood, who killed eight hundred men at one onset.\n9 After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo the Ahohite, one of the three valiant men that were with David when they defied the Philistines, and they were there gathered together to battle.\n10 And when the men of Israel were gone away, he stood and smote the Philistines till his hand was weary, and grew stiff with the sword: and the Lord wrought a great victory that day: and the people that were fled away, returned to take spoils of them that were slain.\n11 And after him was Semma the son of Age of Arari. And the Philistines were gathered together in a troop: for there was a field full of lentils. And when the people were fled from the face of the Philistines,\n12 He stood in the midst of the field, and defended it, and defeated the Philistines: and the Lord gave a great victory.\n13 Moreover also before this the three who were princes among the thirty, went down and came to David in the harvest time into the cave of Odollam: and the camp of the Philistines was in the valley of the giants.\n14 And David was then in a hold. and there was a garrison of the Philistines then in Bethlehem.\n15 And David longed, and said: O that some man would get me a drink of the water out of the cistern, that is in Bethlehem, by the gate.\n16 And the three valiant men broke through the camp of the Philistines, and drew water out of the cistern of Bethlehem, that was by the gate, and brought it to David: but he would not drink, but offered it to the Lord,\n17 Saying: The Lord be merciful to me, that I may not do this: shall I drink the blood of these men that went, and the peril of their lives? therefore he would not drink. These things did these three mighty men.\n18 Abisai also the brother of Joab, the son of Sarvia, was chief among three: and he lifted up his spear against three hundred whom he slew, and he was renowned among the three,\n19 And the noblest of three, and was their chief, but to the three first he attained not.\n20 And Banaias the son of Joiada a most valiant man, of great deeds, of Cabseel: he slew the two lions of Moab, and he went down, and slew a lion in the midst of a pit, in the time of snow.\n21 He also slew an Egyptian, a man worthy to be a sight, having a spear in his hand: but he went down to him with a rod, and forced the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slew him with his own spear.\n22 These things did Banaias the son of Joiada.\n23 And he was renowned among the three valiant men, who were the most honourable among the thirty: but he attained riot to the first three: and David made him of his privy council.\n24 Asael the brother of Joab was one of the thirty, Elehanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem.\n25 Semma of Harodi, Elica of Harodi,\n26 Heles of Phalti, Hira the son of Acces of Thecua,\n27 Abiezer of Anathoth, Mobonnai of Husati,\n28 Selmon the Ahohite, Maharai the Netophathite,\n29 Heled the son of Baana, also a Netophathite, Ithai the son of Ribai of Gabaath of the children of Benjamin,\n30 Banaia the Pharathonite, Heddai of the torrent Gaas,\n31 Abialbon the Arbathite, Azmaveth of Beromi,\n32 Eliaba of Salaboni.

But if you will fight against the Chaldeans, you shall have no success.\n6 And Jeremias said: The word of the Lord came to me, saying:\n7 Behold, Hanameel the son of Sellum thy cousin shall come to thee, saying: Buy thee my field, which is in Anathoth, for it is thy right to buy it, being akin.\n8 And Hanameel my uncle's son cam to me, according to the word of the to the entry of the prison, and said me: Buy my field, which is in in the land of Benjamin: for the right of inheritance is thins, and thou art next of kin to possess it. And I understood this was the word of the Lord.\n9 And I bought the held of my uncle's son, that is in Anathoth: and I weighed him the money, seven staters, and ten pieces of silver.\n10 And I wrote it in a book and sealed it, and took witnesses: and I weighed him the money in the balances.\n11 And I took the deed of the purchase that was sealed, and the stipulations, and the ratifications with the seals that were on the outside.\n12 And I gave the deed of the purchase to Baruch the son of Neri the son of Maasias in the sight of Hanameel my uncle's son, in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, and before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.\n13 And I charged Baruch before them, saying:\n14 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Take these writings, this deed of the purchase that is sealed up, and this deed that is open: and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may continue many days.\n15 For thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Houses, and fields, and vineyards shall be possessed again in this land.\n16 And after I had delivered the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neri, I prayed to the Lord, saying:\n17 Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God, behold thou hast made heaven and earth by thy great power, and thy stretched out arm: no word shall be hard to thee:\n18 Thou shewest mercy unto thousands, and returnest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: O most mighty, great, and powerful, the Lord of hosts is thy name.\n19 Great in counsel and incomprehensible in thought: whose

Egypt even until this day, and in Israel, and amongst men, and hast made thee a name as at this day.\n21 And hast brought forth thy people Israel, out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and a stretched out arm, and with great terror.\n22 And hast given them this land which thou didst swear to their fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey.\n23 And they came in, and possessed it: but they obeyed not thy voice, and they walked not in thy law: and they did not any of those things that thou didst command them to do, and all these evils are come upon them.\n24 Behold works are built up against the city to take it: and the city is given into the hands of the Chaldeans, who fight against it, by the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken, is all come to pass, as thou thyself seest.\n25 And sayest thou to me, O Lord God: Buy a field for money, and take witnesses, whereas the city is given into the hands of the Chaldeans?\n26 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying:\n27 Behold I am the Lord the God of all flesh: shall any thing be hard for me?\n28 Therefore thus saith the Lord: Behold I will deliver this city into the hands of the Chaldeans, and into the hands of the king of Babylon, and they shall take it.\n29 And the Chaldeans that fight against this city, shall come and set it on fire, and burn it, with the houses upon whose roofs they offered sacrifice to Baal, and poured out drink offerings to strange gods, to provoke me to wrath.\n30 For the children of Israel, and the children of Juda, have continually done evil in my eyes from their youth: the children of Israel who even till now provoke me with the work of their hands, saith the Lord.\n31 For this city hath been to me a provocation and indignation from the day that they built it, until this day, in which it shall be taken out of my sight.\n32 Because of all the evil of the children of Israel, and of the children of Juda, which they have done, provoking me to wrath, they and their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets, the men of Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.\n33 And they have turned their backs to me, and not their faces: when I taught them early in the morning, and instructed them, and they would not hearken to receive instruction.\n34 And they have set their idols in the house, in which my name is called upon, to defile it.\n35 And they have built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Ennom, to consecrate their sons and their daughters to Moloch: which I commanded them not, neither entered it into my heart, that they should do this abomination, and cause Juda to sin.\n36 And now, therefore, thus saith the Lord the God of Israel to this city, whereof you say that it shall be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence:\n37 Behold I will gather them together out of all the lands to which I have cast them out in my anger, and in my wrath, and in my great indignation: and I will bring them again into this place, and will cause them to dwell securely.\n38 And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.\n39 And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me all days: and that it may be well with them, and with their children after them.\n40 And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, and will not cease to do them good: and I will give my fear in their heart, that they may not revolt from me.\n41 And I will rejoice over them, when I shall do them good: and I will plant them in this land in truth, with my whole heart, and with all my soul.\n42 For thus saith the Lord: As I have brought upon this people all this great evil: so will I bring upon them all the good that I now speak to them.\n43 And fields shall be purchased in this land: whereof you say that it is desolate, because there remaineth neither man nor beast, and it is given into the hands of the Chaldeans.\n44 Fields shall be bought for money, and deeds shall be written, and sealed, and witnesses shall be taken, in the land of Benjamin, and round about

Now Saul said within himself: Let not my hand be upon him, but let the hands of the Philistines be upon him.\n18 And David said to Saul: Who am I, or what is my life, or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son in law of the king?\n19 And it came to pass at the time when Merob the daughter of Saul should have been given to David, that she was given to Hadriel the Molathite to wife.\n20 But Michol the other daughter of Saul loved David.

Know you not what the scripture saith of Elias; how he calleth on God against Israel?\n3 Lord, they have slain thy prophets, they have dug down thy altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.\n4 But what saith the divine answer to him? I have left me seven thousand men, that have not bowed their knees to Baal.\n5 Even so then at this present time also, there is a remnant saved according to the election of grace.\n6 And if by grace, it is not now by works: otherwise grace is no more grace.\n7 What then? That which Israel sought, he hath not obtained: but the election hath obtained it; and the rest have been blinded.\n8 As it is written: God hath given them the spirit of insensibility; eyes that they should not see; and ears that they should not hear, until this present day.\n9 And David saith: Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumbling block, and a recompense unto them.\n10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see: and bow down their back always.\n11 I say then, have they so stumbled, that they should fall? God forbid. But by their offence, salvation is come to the Gentiles, that they may be emulous of them.\n12 Now if the offence of them be the riches of the world, and the diminution of them, the riches of the Gentiles; how much more the fulness of them?\n13 For I say to you, Gentiles: as long indeed as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I will honour my ministry,\n14 If, by any means, I may provoke to emulation them who are my flesh, and may save some of them.\n15 For if the loss of them be the reconciliation of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?\n16 For if the firstfruit be holy, so is the lump also: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.\n17 And if some of the branches be broken, and thou, being a wild olive, art ingrafted in them, and art made partaker of the root, and of the fatness of the olive tree,\n18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.\n19 Thou wilt say then: The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.\n20 Well: because of unbelief they were broken off. But thou standest by faith: be not highminded, but fear.\n21 For if God hath not spared the natural branches, fear lest perhaps he also spare not thee.\n22 See then the goodness and the severity of God: towards them indeed that are fallen, the severity; but towards thee, the goodness of God, if thou abide in goodness, otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.\n23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.\n24 For if thou wert cut out of the wild olive tree, which is natural to thee; and, contrary to nature, were grafted into the good olive tree; how much more shall they that are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?\n25 For I would not have you ignorant, brethren, of this mystery, (lest you should be wise in your own conceits), that blindness in part has happened in Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles should come in.\n**26 And so all Israel should be saved, as it is written: There shall come out of Sion, he that shall deliver, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob.**\n27 And this is to them my covenant: when I shall take away their sins.\n28 As concerning the gospel, indeed, they are enemies for your sake: but as touching the election, they are most dear for the sake of the fathers.\n29 For the gifts and the calling of God are without repentance.\n30 For as you also in times past did not believe God, but now have obtained mercy, through their unbelief;\n31 So these also now have not believed, for your mercy, that they also may obtain mercy.\n32 For God hath concluded all in unbelief, that he may have mercy on all.\n33 O the depth of the riches of the wisdom and of the knowledge of God! How incomprehensible are his judgments, and how unsearchable his ways!\n34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord?

anointed: and do no evil to my prophets.\n23 Sing ye to the Lord, all the earth: shew forth from day to day his salvation.\n24 Declare his glory among the Gentiles: his wonders among all people.\n25 For the Lord is great and exceedingly to be praised: and he is to be feared above all gods.\n26 For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the Lord made the heavens.\n27 Praise and magnificence

that escaped from the fire.\n7 And when he had done these things in this manner, he departed as if he would return again, and root out all the Joppites.\n8 But when he understood that the men of Jamnia also designed to do in like manner to the Jews that dwelt among them,\n9 He came upon the Jamnites also by night, and set the haven on fire with the ships, so that the light of the fire was seen at Jerusalem two hundred and forty furlongs off.\n10 And when they were now gone from thence nine furlongs, and were marching towards Timotheus, five thousand footmen and five hundred horsemen of the Arabians set upon them.\n11 And after a hard fight, in which by the help of God they got the victory, the rest of the Arabians being overcome, besought Judas for peace, promising to give him pastures, and to assist him in other things.\n12 And Judas thinking that they might be profitable indeed in many things, promised them peace, and after having joined hands, they departed to their tents.\n13 He also laid siege to a certain strong city, encompassed with bridges and walls, and inhabited by multitudes of different nations, the name of which is Casphin.\n14 But they that were within it, trusting in the strength of the walls, and the provision of victuals, behaved in a more negligent manner, and provoked Judas with railing and blaspheming, and uttering such words as were not to be spoken.\n15 But Machabeus calling upon the great Lord of the world, who without any rams or engines of war threw down the walls of Jericho in the time of Josue, fiercely assaulted the walls.\n16 And having taken the city by the will of the Lord, he made an unspeakable slaughter, so that a pool adjoining of two furlongs broad seemed to run with the blood of the slain.\n17 From thence they departed seven hundred and fifty furlongs, and came to Characa to the Jews that are called Tubianites.\n18 But as for Timotheus, they found him not in those places, for before he had dispatched any thing he went back, having left a very strong garrison in a certain hold:\n19 But Dositheus, and Sosipater, who were captains with Machabeus, slew them that were left by Timotheus in the hold, to the number of ten thousand men.\n20 And Machabeus having set in order about him six thousand men, and divided them by bands, went forth against Timotheus, who had with him a hundred and twenty thousand footmen, and two thousand five hundred horsemen.\n21 Now when Timotheus had knowledge of the coming of Judas, he sent the women and children, and the other baggage before him into a fortress, called Carnion: for it was impregnable and hard to come at, by reason of the straitness of the places.\n22 But when the first band of Judas came in sight, the enemies were struck with fear, by the presence of God, who seeth all things, and they were put to flight one from another, so that they were often thrown down by their own companions, and wounded with the strokes of their own swords.\n23 But Judas was vehemently earnest in punishing the profane, of whom he slew thirty thousand men.\n24 And Timotheus himself fell into the hands of the band of Dositheus and Sosipater, and with many prayers he besought them to let him go with his life, because he had the parents and brethren of many of the Jews, who, by his death, might happen to be deceived.\n25 And when he had given his faith that he would restore them according to the agreement, they let him go without hurt, for the saving of their brethren.\n26 Then Judas went away to Carnion, where he slew five and twenty thousand persons.\n27 And after he had put to flight and destroyed these, he removed his army to Ephron, a strong city, wherein there dwelt a multitude of divers nations: and stout young men standing upon the walls made a vigorous resistance: and in this place there were many engines of war, and a provision of darts.\n28 But when they had invocated the Almighty, who with his power breaketh the strength of the enemies, they took the city; and slew five and twenty thousand of them that were within.\n29 From thence they departed to Scythopolis, which lieth six hundred furlongs from Jerusalem.\n30 But the Jews that were among the Scythopolitans testifying that they were used kindly by them, and that even in the times of their adversity they had treated them with humanity:\n31 They gave them thanks exhorting them to be still friendly to their nation, and so they came to Jerusalem, the feast of the weeks being at hand.\n32 And after Pentecost they marched against Gorgias the governor of Idumea.\n33 And he came out with three thousand footmen, and four hundred horsemen.\n34 And when they had joined battle, it happened that a few of the Jews were slain.\n35 But Dositheus, a horseman, one of Bacenor's band, a valiant man, took hold of Gorgias: and when he would have taken him alive, a certain horseman of the Thracians came upon him, and cut off his shoulder: and so Gorgias escaped to Maresa.\n36 But when they that were with Esdrin had fought long, and were weary, Judas called upon the Lord to be their helper, and leader of the battle:\n37 Then beginning in his own language, and singing hymns with a loud voice, he put Gorgias' soldiers to flight.\n38 So Judas having gathered together his army, came into the city Odollam: and when the seventh day came, they purified themselves according to the custom, and kept the sabbath in the place.\n39 And the day following Judas came with his company, to take away the bodies of them that were slain, and to bury them with their kinsmen, in the sepulchres of their fathers.\n40 And they found under the coats of the slain some of the donaries of the idols of Jamnia, which the law forbiddeth to the Jews: so that all plainly saw, that for this cause they were slain.\n41 Then they all blessed the just judgment of the Lord, who had discovered the things that were hidden.\n42 And so betaking themselves to prayers, they besought him, that the sin which had been committed might be forgotten. But the most valiant Judas exhorted the people to keep themselves from sin, forasmuch as they saw before their eyes what had happened, because of the sins of those that were slain.\n43 And making a gathering, he sent twelve thousand drachms of silver to Jerusalem for sacrifice to be offered for the sins of the dead, thinking well and religiously concerning the resurrection,\n44 (For if he had not hoped that they that were slain should rise again, it would have seemed superfluous and vain to pray for the dead,)\n45 And because he considered that they who had fallen asleep with godliness, had great grace laid up for them.\n**46 It is therefore a holy and wholesome thought to pray for the dead, that they may be loosed from sins.**\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"Now Absalom appointed Amasa in Joab's stead over the army: and Amasa was the son of a man who was called Jethra of Jezrael, who went in to Abigail the daughter of Naas, the sister of Sarvia who was the mother of Joab.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of *2 Samuel*, chapter *17*.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n*2 Samuel Chapter 17*\n1 And Achitophel said to Absalom: I will choose me twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David this night.\n2 And coming upon him (for he is now weary, and weak handed) I will defeat him: and when all the people is put to flight that is with him, I will kill the king who will be left alone.\n3 And I will bring back all the people, as if they were but one man: for thou seekest but one man: and all the people shall be in peace.\n4 And his saying pleased Absalom, and all the ancients of Israel.\n5 But Absalom said: Call Chusai the Arachite, and let us hear what he also saith.\n6 And when Chusai was come to Absalom, Absalom said to him: Achitophel hath spoken after this manner: shall we do it or not? what counsel dost thou give?\n7 And Chusai said to Absalom: The counsel that Achitophel hath given this time is not good.\n8 And again Chusai said: Thou knowest thy father, and the men that are with him, that they are very valiant, and bitter in their mind, as a bear raging in the wood when her whelps are taken away: and thy father is a warrior, and will not lodge with the people.\n9 Perhaps he now lieth hid in pits, or in some other place where he list: and when any one shall fall at the first, every one that heareth it shall say: There is a slaughter among the people that followed Absalom.\n10 And the most valiant man whose heart is as the heart of a lion, shall melt for fear: for all the people of Israel know thy father to be a valiant man, and that all who are with him are valiant.\n11 But this seemeth to me to be good counsel: Let all Israel be gathered to thee, from Dan to Bersabee, as the sand of the sea which cannot be numbered: and thou shalt be in the midst of them.\n12 And we shall come upon him in what place soever he shall be found: and we shall cover him, as the dew falleth upon the ground, and we shall not leave of the men that are with him, not so much as one.\n13 And if he shall enter into any city, all Israel shall cast ropes round about that city, and we will draw it into the river, so that there shall not be found so much as one small stone thereof.\n14 And Absalom, and all the men of Israel said: The counsel of Chusai the Arachite is better than the counsel of Achitophel: and by the will of the Lord the profitable counsel of Achitophel was defeated, that the Lord might bring evil upon Absalom.\n15 And Chusai said to Sadoc and Abiathar the priests: Thus and thus did Achitophel counsel Absalom, and the ancients of Israel: and thus and thus did I counsel them.\n16 Now therefore send quickly, and tell David, saying: Tarry not this night in the plains of the wilderness, but without delay pass over: lest the king be swallowed up, and all the people that is with him.\n17 And Jonathan and Achimaas stayed by the fountain Rogel: and there went a maid and told them: and they went forward, to carry the message to king David, for they might not be seen, nor enter into the city.\n18 But a certain boy saw them, and told Absalom: but they making haste went into the house of a certain man in Bahurim, who had a well in his court, and they went down into it.\n19 And a woman took, and spread a covering over the mouth of the well, as it were to dry sodden barley: and so the thing was not known.\n20 And when Absalom's servants were come into the house, they said to the woman: Where is Achimaas and Jonathan? and the woman answered them: They passed on in haste, after they had tasted a little water.

33*\n1 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying:\n2 Thus saith the Lord, who will do, and will form it, and prepare it, the Lord is his name.\n3 Cry to me and I will hear thee: and I will shew thee great things, and sure things which thou knowest not.\n4 For thus saith the Lord the God of Israel to the houses of this city, and to the houses of the king of Juda, which are destroyed, and to the bulwarks, and to the sword.\n5 Of them that come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of the men whom I have slain in my wrath, and in my indignation, hiding my face from this city because of all their wickedness.\n6 Behold I will close their wounds and give them health, and I will cure them: and I will reveal to them the prayer of peace and truth.\n7 And I will bring back the captivity of Juda, and the captivity of Jerusalem: and I will build them as from the beginning.\n8 And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me: and I will forgive all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned against me, and despised me.\n9 And it shall be to me a name, and a joy, and a praise, and a gladness before all the nations of the earth, that shall hear of all the good things which I will do to them: and they shall fear and be troubled for all the good things, and for all the peace that I will make for them.\n10 Thus saith the Lord: There shall be heard again in this place (which you say is desolate, because there is neither man nor beast: in the cities of Juda, and without Jerusalem, which are desolate without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast)\n11 The voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say: Give ye glory to the Lord of hosts, for the Lord is good, for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring their vows into the house of the Lord: for I will bring back the captivity of the land as at the first, saith the Lord.\n12 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: There shall be again in this place that is desolate without man, and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, an habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.\n13 And in the cities on the mountains, and in the cities of the plains, and in the cities that are towards the south: and in the land of Benjamin, and round about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Juda shall the flocks pass again under the hand of him that numbereth them, saith the Lord.\n14 Behold the days come, saith the Lord, that I will perform the good word that I have spoken to the house of Israel, and to the house of Juda.\n15 In those days, and at that time, I will make the bud of justice to spring forth unto David, and he shall do judgment and justice in the earth.\n16 In those days shall Juda be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell securely: and this is the name that they shall call him, The Lord our just one.\n17 For thus saith the Lord: There shall not be cut off from David a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel.\n18 Neither shall there be cut off from the

multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites my ministers.\n23 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying:\n24 Hast thou not seen what this people hath spoken, saying: The two families which the Lord had chosen, are cast off: and they have despised my people, so that it is no more a nation before them?\n25 Thus saith the Lord: If I have not set my covenant between day and night, and laws to heaven and earth:\n26 Surely I will also cast off the seed of Jacob, and of David my servant, so as not to take any of his seed to be rulers of the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and

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?

Chronicles*, chapter *24*.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\n*2 Chronicles Chapter 24*\n1 Joas was seven years old when he began to reign: and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Sebia of Bersabee.\n2 And he did that which is good before the Lord all the days of Joiada the priest.\n**3 And Joiada took for him two wives, by whom he had sons and daughters.**\n4 After this Joas had a mind to repair the house of the Lord.\n5 And he assembled the priests, and the Levites, and said to them: Go out to the cities of Juda, and gather of all Israel money to repair the temple of your God, from year to year: and do this with speed: but the Levites were negligent.\n6 And the king called Joiada the chief, and said to him: Why hast thou not taken care to oblige the Levites to bring in out of Juda and Jerusalem the money that was appointed by Moses the servant of the Lord for all the multitude of Israel to bring into the tabernacle of the testimony?\n7 For that wicked woman Athalia, and her children have destroyed the house of God, and adorned the temple of Baal with all the things that had been dedicated in the temple of the Lord.\n8 And the king commanded, and they made a chest: and set it by the gate of the house of the Lord on the outside.\n9 And they made a proclamation in Juda and Jerusalem, that every man should bring to the Lord the money which Moses the servant of God appointed for all Israel, in the desert.\n10 And all the princes, and all the people rejoiced: and going In they contributed and cast so much into the chest of the Lord, that it was filled.\n11 And when it was time to bring the chest before the king by the hands of the Levites, (for they saw there was much money,) the king's scribe, and he whom the high priest had appointed went in: and they poured out the money that was in the chest: and they carried back the chest to its place: and thus they did from day to day, and there was gathered an immense sum of money.\n12 And the king and Joiada gave it to those who were over the works of the house of the Lord: but they hired with it stonecutters, and artificers of every kind of work to repair the house of the Lord: and such as wrought in iron and brass, to uphold what began to be falling.\n13 And the workmen were diligent, and the breach of the walls was closed up by their hands, and they set up the house of the Lord in its former state, and made it stand firm.\n14 And when they had finished all the works, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Joiada: and with it were made vessels for the temple for the ministry, and for holocausts and bowls, and other vessels of gold and silver: and holocausts were offered in the house of the Lord continually all the days of Joiada.\n15 But Joiada grew old and was full of days, and died when he was a hundred and thirty years old.\n16 And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good to Israel, and to his house.\n17 And after the death of Joiada, the princes of Juda went in, and worshipped the king: and he was soothed by their services and hearkened to them.\n18 And they forsook the temple of the Lord the God of their fathers, and served groves and idols, and wrath came upon Juda and Jerusalem for this sin.\n19 And he sent prophets to them to bring them back to the Lord, and they would not give ear when they testified against them.\n20 The spirit of God then came upon Zacharias the son of Joiada the priest, and he stood in the sight of the people, and said to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Why transgress you the commandment of the Lord which will not be for your good, and have forsaken the Lord, to make him forsake you?\n21 And they gathered themselves together against him, and stoned him at the king's commandment in the court of the house of the Lord.\n22 And king Joas did not remember the kindness that Joiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. And when he died, he said: The Lord see, and require it.\n23 And when a year was come about, the army of Syria came up against him: and they came to Juda and Jerusalem, and killed all the princes of the people, and they sent all the spoils to the king of Damascus.\n24 And whereas there came a very small number of the Syrians, the Lord delivered into their hands an infinite multitude, because they had forsaken the Lord the God of their fathers: and on Joas they executed shameful judgments.\n25 And departing they left him in diseases: and his servants rose up him, for revenge of the blood of the son of Joiada the priest, and they slew him in his bed, and he died: and they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.\n26 Now the men that conspired against him were Zabad the son of Semmaath an Ammonitess, and Jozabad the son of Semarith a Moabitess.\n27 And concerning his sons, and the sum of money which was gathered under him, and the repairing the house of God; they are written more diligently in the book of kings: and Amasias his son reigned in his stead.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you quote 2 Kings 2:17 for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from 2 Kings 2:17, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"But they pressed him, till he consented, and said: Send.

most holy:\n2 Therefore where the holocaust is immolated, the victim also for a trespass shall be slain: the blood thereof shall be poured round about the altar.\n3 They shall offer thereof the rump and the fat that covereth the entrails:\n4 The two little kidneys, and the fat which is by the flanks, and the caul of the liver with the little kidneys.\n5 And the priest shall burn them upon the altar: it is the burnt sacrifice of the Lord for a trespass.\n6 Every male of the priestly race, shall eat this flesh in a holy place, because it is most holy.\n7 As the sacrifice for sin is offered, so is also that for a trespass: the same shall be the law of both these sacrifices: it shall belong to the priest that offereth it.\n8 The priest that offereth the victim of holocaust, shall have the skin thereof.\n9 And every sacrifice of flour that is baked in the oven, and whatsoever is dressed on the gridiron, or in the fryingpan, shall be the priest's that offereth it:\n10 Whether they be tempered with oil, or dry, all the sons of Aaron shall have one as much as another.\n11 This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings that is offered to the Lord.\n12 If the oblation be for thanksgiving, they shall offer leaves without leaven tempered with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and fine flour fried, and cakes tempered and mingled with oil:\n13 Moreover leaves of leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanks, which is offered for peace offerings:\n14 Of which one shall be offered to the Lord for firstfruits, and shall be the priest's that shall pour out the blood of the victim.\n15 And the flesh of it shall be eaten the same day, neither shall any of it remain until the morning.\n16 If any man by vow, or of his own accord offer a sacrifice, it shall in like manner be eaten the same day: and if any of it remain until the morrow, it is lawful to eat it:\n17 But whatsoever shall be found on the third day shall be consumed with fire.\n18 If any man eat of the flesh of the victim of peace offerings on the third day, the oblation shall be of no effect, neither shall it profit the offerer: yea rather whatsoever soul shall defile itself with such meat, shall be guilty of transgression.\n**19 The flesh that hath touched any unclean thing, shall not be eaten, but shall be burnt with fire: he that is clean shall eat of it.**\n20 If any one that is defiled shall eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which is offered to the Lord, he shall be cut off from his people.\n21 And he that hath touched the uncleanness of man, or of beast, or of any thing that can defile, and shall eat of such kind of flesh, shall be cut off from his people.\n22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n23 Say to the children of Israel: The fat of a sheep, and of an ox, and of a goat you shall not eat.\n24 The fat of a carcass that hath died of itself, and of a beast that was caught by another beast, you shall have for divers uses.\n25 If any man eat the fat that should be offered for the burnt sacrifice of the Lord, he shall perish out of his people.\n26 Moreover you shall not eat the blood of any creature whatsoever, whether of birds or beasts.\n27 Every one that eateth blood, shall perish from among the people.\n28 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n29 Speak to the children of Israel, saying: He that offereth a victim of peace offerings to the Lord, let him offer therewith a sacrifice also, that is, the libations thereof.\n30 He shall hold in his hands the fat of the victim, and the breast: and when he hath offered and consecrated both to the Lord, he shall deliver them to the priest,\n31 Who shall burn the fat upon the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.\n32 The right shoulder also of the victims of peace offerings shall fall to the priest for firstfruits.\n33 He among the sons of Aaron, that offereth the blood, and the fat, he shall have the right shoulder also for his portion.\n34 For the breast that is elevated and the shoulder that is separated I have taken of the children of Israel, from off their victims of peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest, and to his sons, by a law for ever, from all the people of Israel.\n35 This is the anointing of Aaron and his sons, in the ceremonies of the Lord, in the day when Moses offered them, that they might do the office of priesthood,\n36 And the things that the Lord commanded to be given them by the children of Israel, by a perpetual observance in their generations.\n37 This is the law of holocaust, and of the sacrifice for sin, and for trespass, and for consecration, and the victims of peace offerings:\n38 Which the Lord appointed to Moses in mount Sinai, when he commanded the children of Israel, that they

For I know their thoughts, and what they are about to do this day, before that I bring them into the land which I have promised them.\n22 Moses therefore wrote the canticle and taught it to the children of Israel.\n23 And the Lord commanded Josue the son of Nun, and said: Take courage, and be valiant: for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I have promised, and I will be with thee.\n24 Therefore after Moses had wrote the words of this law in a volume, and finished it:\n25 He commanded the Levites, who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord. saying:\n26 Take this book, and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God: that it may be there for a testimony against thee.\n27 For I know thy obstinacy, and thy most stiff neck, While I am yet living, and going in with you, you have always been rebellious against the Lord: how much more when I shall be dead?\n28 Gather unto me all the ancients of your tribes, and your doctors, and I will speak these words in their hearing, and will call heaven and earth to witness against them.\n29 For I know that, after my death, you will do wickedly, and will quickly turn aside from the way that I have commanded you: and evils shall come upon you in the latter times, when you shall do evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him by the works of your hands.\n30 Moses therefore spoke, in the hearing of the whole assembly of Israel, the words of this canticle, and finished it even to the end,\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you provide the book, chapter, and verse for \"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.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"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.\" appears in Exodus, chapter 21, at verse 14 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Isaiah 30:4 please", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Isaiah 30:4 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"For thy princes were in Tanis, and thy messengers came even to Hanes.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you pinpoint the book and chapter of \"After that Jechonias the king, and the queen, and the eunuchs, and the princes of Juda, and of Jerusalem, and the craftsman, and the engravers were departed out of Jerusalem:\" for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from *Jeremiah*, chapter *29*.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\n*Jeremiah Chapter 29*\n1 Now these are the words of the letter which Jeremias the prophet sent from Jerusalem to the residue of the ancients that were carried into captivity, and to the priests, and to the prophets, and to all the people, whom Nabuchodonosor had carried away from Jerusalem to Babylon:\n**2 After that Jechonias the king, and the queen, and the eunuchs, and the princes of Juda, and of Jerusalem, and the craftsman, and the engravers were departed out of Jerusalem:**\n3 By the hand of Elasa the son of Saphan, and Gamarias the son of Helcias, whom Sedecias king of Juda sent to Babylon to Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, saying:\n4 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, to all that are carried away captives, whom I have caused to be carried away from Jerusalem to Babylon:\n5 Build ye houses, and dwell in them: and plant orchards, and eat the fruit of them.\n6 Take ye wives, and beget sons and daughters: and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, and let them bear sons and daughters: and be ye multiplied there, and be not few in number.\n7 And seek the peace of the city, to which I have caused you to be carried away captives;

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

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

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

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", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Recite 2 Kings 1:13", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**Old Testament**\n*2 Kings 1:13 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"Again he sent a third captain of fifty men, and the fifty that were with him.

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.

divers tongues, according as the Holy Ghost gave them to speak.\n5 Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem, Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.\n6 And when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded in mind, because that every man heard them speak in his own tongue.\n**7 And they were all amazed, and wondered, saying: Behold, are not all these, that

Asia,\n10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome,\n11 Jews also, and proselytes, Cretes, and Arabians: we have heard them speak in our own tongues

up, having loosed the sorrows of hell, as it was impossible that he should be holden by it.\n25 For David saith concerning him: I foresaw the Lord before my face: because he is at my right hand, that I may not be moved.\n26 For this my heart hath been glad, and my tongue hath rejoiced: moreover my flesh also shall rest in hope.\n27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, nor suffer thy Holy One to see corruption.\n28 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life: thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.\n29 Ye men, brethren, let me freely speak to you of the patriarch David;

one should sit upon his throne.\n31 Foreseeing this, he spoke of the resurrection of Christ.

He answered him: Go up, and prosper, and the Lord shall deliver it into the king's hands.\n16 But the king said to him: I adjure thee again and again, that thou tell me nothing but that which is true in the name of the Lord.\n17 And he said: I saw all Israel scattered upon the hills, like sheep that have no shepherd: and the Lord said: These have no master: let every man of them return to his house in peace.\n18 (Then the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Did I not tell thee, that he prophesieth no good to me, but always evil?)\n19 And he added and said: Hear thou therefore the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on the right hand and on the left:\n20 And the Lord said: Who shall deceive Achab king of Israel, that he may go up, and fall at Ramoth Galaad? And one spoke words of this manner, and another otherwise.\n21 And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said: I will deceive him. And the Lord said to him: By what means?\n22 And he said: I will go forth, and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And the Lord said: Thou shalt deceive him, and shalt prevail: a go forth, and do so.\n23 Now therefore behold the Lord hath given a lying spirit in the mouth of all thy prophets that are here, and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee.\n24 And Sedecias the son of Chanaana came, and struck Micheas on the cheek, and said: Hath then the spirit of the Lord left me, and spoken to thee?\n25 And Micheas said: Thou shalt see in the day when thou shalt go into a chamber within a chamber to hide thyself.\n26 And the king of Israel said: Take Micheas, and let him abide with Ammon the governor of the city, and with Joas the son of Amalech.\n**27 And tell them: Thus saith the king: Put this man in prison, and feed him with bread of affliction, and water of distress, till I return in peace.**\n28 And Micheas said: If thou return in peace, the Lord hath not spoken by me. And he said: Hear, all ye people.\n29 So the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda went up to Ramoth Galaad.\n30 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Take armour, and go into the battle, and put on thy own garments. But the king of Israel changed his dress, and went into the battle.\n31 And the king of Syria had commanded the two and thirty captains of the chariots, saying: You shall not fight against any, small or great, but against the king of Israel only.\n32 So when the captains of the chariots saw Josaphat, they suspected that he was the king of Israel, and making a violent assault they fought against him: and Josaphat cried out.\n33 And the captains of the chariots perceived that he was not the king of and they turned away from him.\n34 And a certain man bent his bow, shooting at a venture, and chanced to strike the king of Israel between the lungs and the stomach. But he said to the driver of his chariot: Turn thy hand, and carry me out of the army, for I am grievously wounded.\n35 And the battle was fought that day, and the king of Israel stood in his chariot against the Syrians, and he died in the evening: and the blood ran out of the wound into the midst of the chariot.\n36 And the herald proclaimed through all the army before the sun set, saying: Let every man return to his own city, and to his own country.\n37 And the king died, and was carried into Samaria: and they buried the king in Samaria.\n38 And they washed his chariot in the pool of Samaria, and the dogs licked up his blood, and they washed the reins, according to the word of the Lord which he had spoken.\n39 But the rest of the acts of Achab, and all that he did, and the house of ivory that he made, and all the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?\n40 So Achab slept with his fathers, and Ochozias his son reigned in his stead.\n41 But Josaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Juda in the fourth year of Achab king of Israel.\n42 He was five and thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned five and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Azuba the daughter of Salai.\n43 And he walked in all the way of Asa his father, and he declined not from it: and he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord.\n44 Nevertheless he took not away the high places: for as Set the people offered sacrifices and burnt incense in the high places.\n45 And Josaphat had peace with the king of Israel.\n46 But the rest of the acts of Josaphat, and his works which he did, and his battles, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?\n47 And the remnant also of the effeminate, who remained in the days of Asa his father, he took out of the land.\n48 And there was then no king appointed in Edom.\n49 But king Josaphat made navies on the sea, to sail into Ophir for gold: but they could not go, for the ships were broken in Asiongaber.\n50 Then Ochozias the ton of Achab said to Josaphat: Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships. And Josaphat would not.\n51 And Josaphat slept with his fathers. and was buried with them in the city of David his father: and Joram his son reigned in his stead.\n52 And Ochozias the son of Achab began to reign over Israel in Samaria, in the seventeenth year of Josaphat king of Juda, and he reigned over Israel two years,\n53 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the way of his father and his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.\n54 He served also Baal, and worshipped him, and provoked the Lord the God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- **Book:** 1 Samuel\n- **Chapter:** 25\n- **Verse:** 18", "role": "user" }, { "content": "1 Samuel 25:18 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"Then Abigail made haste and took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of dry figs, and laid them upon asses:\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"Who before was a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and contumelious.

Every man shall return to his possession, and every one shall go back to his former family:\n11 Because it is the jubilee and the fiftieth year. You shall not sow, nor reap the things that grow in the field of their own accord, neither shall you gather the firstfruits of the vines,\n12 Because of the sanctification of the jubilee: but as they grow you shall presently eat them.\n13 In the year of the jubilee all shall return to their possessions.\n14 When thou shalt sell any thing to thy neighbour, or shalt buy of him; grieve not thy brother: but thou shalt buy of him according to the number of years from the jubilee.\n15 And he shall sell to thee according to the computation of the fruits.\n16 The more years remain after the jubilee, the more shall the price increase: and the less time is counted, so much the less shall the purchase cost.

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.

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 hundred and forty-sixth year: and he was buried by his sons in the sepulchres of his fathers in Modin, and all Israel mourned for him with great mourning.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and chapter does \"And Nicanor purposed to raise for the king the tribute of two thousand talents, that was to be given to the Romans, by making so much money of the captive Jews:\" belong to?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from *2 Maccabees*, chapter *8*.\n\nWant the full chapter? Here it is:\n*2 Maccabees Chapter 8*\n1 But Judas Machabeus, and they that were with him, went privately into the towns: and calling together their kinsmen and friends, and taking unto them such as continued in the Jews' religion, they assembled six thousand men.\n2 And they called upon the Lord that he would look upon his people that was trodden down by all, and would have pity on the temple, that was defiled by the wicked:\n3 That he would have pity also upon the city that was destroyed, that was ready to be made even with the ground, and would hear the voice of the blood that cried to him:\n4 That he would remember also the most unjust deaths of innocent children, and the blasphemies offered to his name, and would shew his indignation on this occasion.\n5 Now when Machabeus had gathered a multitude, he could not be withstood by the heathens: for the wrath of the Lord was turned into mercy.\n6 So coming unawares upon the towns and cities, he set them on fire, and taking possession of the most commodious places, he made no small slaughter of the enemies:\n7 And especially in the nights he went upon these expeditions, and the fame of his valour was spread abroad everywhere.\n8 Then Philip, seeing that the man gained ground by little and little, and that things for the most part succeeded prosperously with him, wrote to Ptolemee the governor of Celesyria and Phenicia, to send aid to the king's affairs.\n9 And he with all speed sent Nicanor the son of Patroclus, one of his special friends, giving him no fewer than twenty thousand armed men of different nations, to root out the whole race of the Jews, joining also with him Gorgias, a good soldier, and of great experience in matters of war.\n**10 And Nicanor purposed to raise for the king the tribute of two thousand talents, that was to be given to the Romans, by making so much money of the captive Jews:**\n11 Wherefore he sent immediately to the cities upon the sea coast, to invite men together to buy up the Jewish slaves, promising that they should have ninety slaves for one talent, not reflecting on the vengeance, which was to follow him from the Almighty.\n12 Now when Judas found that Nicanor was coming, he imparted to the Jews that were with him, that the enemy was at hand.\n13 And some of them being afraid, and distrusting the justice of God, fled away:\n14 Others sold all that they had left, and withal besought the Lord, that he would deliver them from the wicked Nicanor, who had sold them before he came near them:\n15 And if not for their sakes, yet for the covenant that he had made with their fathers, and for the sake of his holy and glorious name that was invoked upon them.\n16 But Machabeus calling together seven thousand that were with him, exhorted them not to be reconciled to the enemies, nor to fear the multitude of the enemies who came wrongfully against them, but to fight manfully:\n17 Setting before their eyes the injury they had unjustly done the holy place, and also the injury they had done to the city, which had been shamefully abused, besides their destroying the ordinances of the fathers.\n18 For, said he, they trust in their weapons, and in their boldness: but we trust in the Almighty Lord, who at a beck can utterly destroy both them that come against us, and the whole world.\n19 Moreover he put them in mind also of the helps their fathers had received from God: and how under Sennacherib a hundred and eighty-five thousand had been destroyed.\n20 And of the battle that they had fought against the Galatians in Babylonia, how they, being in all but six thousand, when it came to the point, and the Macedonians their companions were a stand, slew a hundred and twenty thousand, because of the help they had from heaven, and for this they received many favours.\n21 With these words they were greatly encouraged, and disposed even to die for the laws and their country.\n22 So he appointed his brethren captains over each division of his army, Simon, and Joseph, and Jonathan, giving to each one fifteen hundred men.\n23 And after the holy Book had been read to them by Esdras, and he had given them for a watchword, The help of God: himself leading the first band, he joined battle with Nicanor:\n24 And the Almighty being their helper, they slew above nine thousand men: and having wounded and disabled the greater part of Nicanor's army, they obliged them to fly.\n25 And they took the money of them that came to buy them, and they pursued them on every side.\n26 But they came back for want of time: for it was the day before the sabbath: and therefore they did not continue the pursuit.\n27 But when they had gathered together their arms and their spoils, they kept the sabbath: blessing the Lord who had delivered them that day, distilling the beginning of mercy upon them.\n28 Then after the sabbath they divided the spoils to the feeble and the orphans, and the widows: and the rest they took for themselves and their servants.\n29 When this was done, and they had all made a common supplication, they besought the merciful Lord to be reconciled to his servants unto the end.\n30 Moreover they slew above twenty thousand of them that were with Timotheus and Bacchides who fought them, and they made themselves masters of the high strong holds: and they divided amongst them many spoils, giving equal portions to the feeble, the fatherless and the widows, yea and the aged also.\n31 And when they had carefully gathered together their arms, they laid them all up in convenient places, and the residue of their spoils they carried to Jerusalem:\n32 They slew also Philarches who was with Timotheus, a wicked man, who had many ways afflicted the Jews.\n33 And when they kept the feast of the victory at Jerusalem, they burnt Callisthenes, that had set fire to the holy gates, who had taken refuge in a certain house, rendering to him a worthy reward for his impieties:\n34 But as for that most wicked man Nicanor, who had brought a thousand merchants to the sale of the Jews,\n35 Being through the help of the Lord brought down by them, of whom he had made no account, laying; aside his garment of glory, fleeing through the midland country, he came alone to Antioch, being rendered very unhappy by the destruction of his army.\n36 And he that had promised to levy the tribute for the Romans by the means of the captives of Jerusalem, now professed that the Jews had God for their protector, and therefore they could not be hurt, because they followed the laws appointed by him.\n", "role":

And that day indeed he held his peace.\n5 But having gotten a convenient time to further his madness, being called to counsel by Demetrius, and asked what the Jews relied upon, and what were their counsels,\n6 He answered thereunto: They among the Jews that are called Assideans, of whom Judas Machabeus is captain, nourish wars, and raise seditions, and will not suffer the realm to be in peace.\n7 For I also being deprived of my ancestors' glory (I mean of the high priesthood) am now come hither:\n8 Principally indeed out of fidelity to the king's interests, but in the next place also to provide for the good of my countrymen: for all our nation suffereth much from the evil proceedings of those men.\n9 Wherefore, O king, seeing thou knowest all these things, take care, I beseech thee, both of the country, and of our nation, according to thy humanity which is known to all men,\n10 For as long as Judas liveth, it is not possible that the state should be quiet.\n11 Now when this man had spoken to this effect, the rest also of the king's friends, who were enemies of Judas, incensed Demetrius against him.\n12 And forthwith he sent Nicanor, the commander over the elephants, governor into Judea:\n13 Giving him in charge, to take Judas himself: and disperse all them that were with him, and to make Alcimus the high priest of the great temple.\n14 Then the Gentiles who had fled out of Judea from Judas, came to Nicanor by flocks, thinking the miseries and calamities of the Jews to be the welfare of their affairs.\n**15 Now when the Jews heard of Nicanor's coming, and that the nations were assembled against them, they cast earth upon their heads, and made supplication to him, who chose his people to keep them for ever, and who protected his portion by evident signs.**\n16 Then at the commandment of their captain, they forthwith removed from the place where they were, and went to the town of Dessau, to meet them.\n17 Now Simon the brother of Judas had joined battle with Nicanor, but was frightened with the sudden coming of the adversaries.\n18 Nevertheless Nicanor hearing of the valour of Judas' companions, and the greatness of courage with which they fought for their country, was afraid to try the matter by the sword.\n19 Wherefore he sent Posidonius, and Theodotius, and Matthias before to present and receive the right hands.\n20 And when there had been a consultation thereupon, and the captain had acquainted the multitude with it, they were all of one mind to consent to covenants.\n21 So they appointed a day upon which they might commune together by themselves: and seats were brought out, and set for each one.\n22 But Judas ordered men to be ready in convenient places, lest some mischief might be suddenly practiced by the enemies: so they made an agreeable conference.\n23 And Nicanor abode in Jerusalem, and did no wrong, but sent away the flocks of the multitudes that had been gathered together.\n24 And Judas was always dear to him from the heart, and he was well affected to the man.\n25 And he desired him to marry a wife, and to have children. So he married: he lived quietly, and they lived in common.\n26 But Alcimus seeing the love they had one to another, and the covenants, came to Demetrius, and told him that Nicanor assented to the foreign interest, for that he meant to make Judas, who was a traitor to the kingdom, his successor.\n27 Then the king being in a rage and provoked with this man's wicked accusations, wrote to Nicanor, signifying, that he was greatly displeased with the covenant of friendship: and that he commanded him nevertheless to send Machabeus prisoner in all haste to Antioch.\n28 When this was known, Nicanor was in a consternation, and took it grievously that he should make void the articles that were agreed upon, having received no injury from the man.\n29 But because he could not oppose the king, he watched an opportunity to comply with the orders.\n30 But when Machabeus perceived that Nicanor was more stern to him, and that when they met together as usual he behaved himself in a rough manner: and was sensible that this rough behaviour came not of good, he gathered together a few of his men, and hid himself from Nicanor.\n31 But he finding himself notably prevented by the man, came to the great and holy temple: and commanded the priests that were offering the accustomed sacrifices, to deliver him the man.\n32 And when they swore unto him, that they knew not where the man was whom he sought, he stretched out his hand to the temple,\n33 And swore, saying: Unless you deliver Judas prisoner to me, I will lay this temple of God even with the ground, and will beat down the altar, and I will dedicate this temple to Bacchus.\n34 And when he had spoken thus he departed.

verse you mentioned is found in *Jeremiah*, chapter *32*.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\n*Jeremiah Chapter 32*\n1 The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord in the tenth year of Sedecias king of Juda: the same is eighteenth year of Nabuchodonosor.\n2 At that time the army of the king of Babylon besieged Jerusalem: and Jeremias the prophet was shut up in the court of the prison, which was in the house of the king of Juda.\n3 For Sedecias king of Juda had shut him up, saying: Why dost thou prophesy, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it?\n4 And Sedecias king of Juda shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans: but he shall be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon: and he shall speak to him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall see his eyes.\n5 And he shall lead Sedecias to Babylon: and he shall be there till I visit him, saith the Lord. But if you will fight against the Chaldeans, you shall have no success.\n6 And Jeremias said: The word of the Lord came to me, saying:\n7 Behold, Hanameel the son of Sellum thy cousin shall come to thee, saying: Buy thee my field, which is in Anathoth, for it is thy right to buy it, being akin.\n8 And Hanameel my uncle's son cam to me, according to the word of the to the entry of the prison, and said me: Buy my field, which is in in the land of Benjamin: for the right of inheritance is thins, and thou art next of kin to possess it. And I understood this was the word of the Lord.\n9 And I bought the held of my uncle's son, that is in Anathoth: and I weighed him the money, seven staters, and ten pieces of silver.\n10 And I wrote it in a book and sealed it, and took witnesses: and I weighed him the money in the balances.\n11 And I took the deed of the purchase that was sealed, and the stipulations, and the ratifications with the seals that were on the outside.\n12 And I gave the deed of the purchase to Baruch the son of Neri the son of Maasias in the sight of Hanameel my uncle's son, in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, and before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.\n13 And I charged Baruch before them, saying:\n14 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Take these writings, this deed of the purchase that is sealed up, and this deed that is open: and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may continue many days.\n15 For thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Houses, and fields, and vineyards shall be possessed again in this land.\n16 And after I had delivered the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neri, I prayed to the Lord, saying:\n17 Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God, behold thou hast made heaven and earth by thy great power, and thy stretched out arm: no word shall be hard to thee:\n18 Thou shewest mercy unto thousands, and returnest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: O most mighty, great, and powerful, the Lord of hosts is thy name.\n19 Great in counsel and incomprehensible in thought: whose eyes are open upon all the ways of the children of Adam, to render unto every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his devices.\n20 Who hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt even until this day, and in Israel, and amongst men, and hast made thee a name as at this day.\n21 And hast brought forth thy people Israel, out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and a stretched out arm, and with great terror.\n22 And hast given them this land which thou didst swear to their fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey.\n23 And they came in, and possessed it: but they obeyed not thy voice, and they walked not in thy law: and they did not any of those things that thou didst command them to do, and all these evils are come upon them.\n24 Behold works are built up against the city to take it: and the city is given into the hands of the Chaldeans, who fight against it, by the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken, is all come to pass, as thou thyself seest.\n25 And sayest thou to me, O Lord God: Buy a field for money, and take witnesses, whereas the city is given into the hands of the Chaldeans?\n26 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying:\n27 Behold I am the Lord the God of all flesh: shall any thing be hard for me?\n28 Therefore thus saith the Lord: Behold I will deliver this city into the hands of the Chaldeans, and into the hands of the king of Babylon, and they shall take it.\n29 And the Chaldeans that fight against this city, shall come and set it on fire, and burn it, with the houses upon whose roofs they offered sacrifice to Baal, and poured out drink offerings to strange gods, to provoke me to wrath.\n30 For the children of Israel, and the children of Juda, have continually done evil in my eyes from their youth: the children of Israel who even till now provoke me with the work of their hands, saith the Lord.\n31 For this city hath been to me a provocation and indignation from the day that they built it, until this day, in which it shall be taken out of my sight.\n**32 Because of all the evil of the children of Israel, and of the children of Juda, which they have done, provoking me to wrath, they and their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets, the men of Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.**\n33 And they have turned their backs to me, and not their faces: when I taught them early in the morning, and instructed them, and they would not hearken to receive instruction.\n34 And they have set their idols in the house, in which my name is called upon, to defile it.\n35 And they have built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Ennom, to consecrate their sons and their daughters to Moloch: which I commanded them not, neither entered it into my heart, that they should do this abomination, and cause Juda to sin.\n36 And now, therefore, thus saith the Lord the God of Israel to this city, whereof you say that it shall be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence:\n37 Behold I will gather them together out of all the lands to which I have cast them out in my anger, and in my wrath, and in my great indignation: and I will bring them again into this place, and will cause them to dwell securely.\n38 And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.\n39 And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me all days: and that it may be well with them, and with their children after them.\n40 And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, and will not cease to do them good: and I will give my fear in their heart, that they may not revolt from me.\n41 And I will rejoice over them, when I shall do them good: and I will plant them in this land in truth, with my whole heart, and with all my soul.\n42 For thus saith the Lord: As I have brought upon this people all this great evil: so will I bring upon them all the good that I now speak to them.\n43 And fields shall be purchased in this land: whereof you say that it is desolate, because there remaineth neither man nor beast, and it is given into the hands of the Chaldeans.\n44 Fields shall be bought for money, and deeds shall be written, and sealed, and witnesses shall be taken, in the land of Benjamin, and round about Jerusalem, in the cities of Juda, and in the cities on the mountains, and in the cities of the plains, and in the cities that are towards the south: for I will bring back their captivity, saith the

what authority dost thou these things? or, Who is he that hath given thee this authority?\n3 And Jesus answering, said to them: I will also ask you one thing. 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?\n**6 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.

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.

He that loveth his wife, loveth himself.\n29 For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, as also Christ doth the church:\n30 Because we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.\n31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they shall be two in one flesh.\n32 This is a great sacrament; but I speak in Christ and in the church.\n33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular love his wife as himself: and let the wife fear her husband.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the reference (book, chapter, verse) for \"Beseleel, therefore, and Ooliab, and every wise man, to whom the Lord gave wisdom and understanding, to know how to work artificially, made the things that are necessary for the uses of the sanctuary, and which the Lord commanded.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"Beseleel, therefore, and Ooliab, and every wise man, to whom the Lord gave wisdom and understanding, to know how to work artificially, made the things that are necessary for the uses of the sanctuary, and which the Lord commanded.\" is written in Exodus 36:1, within the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Isaiah, chapter 62, verse 12 - what does it say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Isaiah chapter 62, verse 12, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And they shall call them, The holy people, the redeemed of the Lord.

from *John*, chapter *7*.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\n*John Chapter 7*\n1 After these things Jesus walked in Galilee; for he would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.\n2 Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand.\n3 And his brethren said to him: Pass from hence, and go into Judea; that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou dost.\n4 For there is no man that doth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, manifest thyself to the world.\n5 For neither did his brethren believe in him.\n6 Then Jesus said to them: My time is not yet come; but your time is always ready.\n7 The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth: because I give testimony of it, that the works thereof are evil.\n8 Go you up to this festival day, but I go not up to this festival day: because my time is not accomplished.\n9 When he had said these things, he himself stayed in Galilee.\n10 But after his brethren were gone up, then he also went up to the feast, not openly, but, as it were, in secret.\n11 The Jews therefore sought him on the festival day, and said: Where is he?\n12 And there was much murmuring among the multitude concerning him. For some said: He is a good man. And others said: No, but he seduceth the people.\n13 Yet no man spoke openly of him, for fear of the Jews.\n14 Now about the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.\n15 And the Jews wondered, saying: How doth this man know letters, having never learned?\n16 Jesus answered them, and said: My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.\n17 If any man do the will of him; he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.\n18 He that speaketh of himself, seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and there is no injustice in him.\n19 Did Moses not give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law?\n20 Why seek you to kill me? The multitude answered, and said: Thou hast a devil; who seeketh to kill thee?\n**21 Jesus answered, and said to them: One work I have done; and you all wonder:**\n22 Therefore, Moses gave you circumcision (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and on the sabbath day you circumcise a man.\n23 If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath day, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are you angry at me because I have healed the whole man on the sabbath day?\n24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge just judgment.\n25 Some therefore of Jerusalem said: Is not this he whom they seek to kill?\n26 And behold, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers known for a truth, that this is the Christ?\n27 But we know this man, whence he is: but when the Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.\n28 Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching, and saying: You both know me, and you know whence I am: and I am not come of myself; but he that sent me, is true, whom you know not.\n29 I know him, because I am from him, and he hath sent me.\n30 They sought therefore to apprehend him: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.\n31 But of the people many believed in him, and said: When the Christ cometh, shall he do more miracles, than these which this man doth?\n32 The Pharisees heard the people murmuring these things concerning him: and the rulers and Pharisees sent ministers to apprehend him.\n33 Jesus therefore said to them: Yet a little while I am with you: and then I go to him that sent me.\n34 You shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither you cannot come.\n35 The Jews therefore said among themselves: Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?\n36 What is this saying that he hath said: You shall seek me, and shall not find me; and where I am, you cannot come?\n37 And on the last, and great day of the festivity, Jesus stood and cried, saying: If any man thirst, let him come to me, and drink.\n38 He that believeth in me, as the scripture saith, Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.\n39 Now this he said of the Spirit which they should receive, who believed in him: for as yet the Spirit was not given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.\n40 Of that multitude therefore, when they had heard these words of his, some said: This is the prophet indeed.\n41 Others said: This is the Christ. But some said: Doth the Christ come out of Galilee?\n42 Doth not the scripture say: That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem the town where David was?\n43 So there arose a dissension among the people because of him.\n44 And some of them would have apprehended him: but no man laid hands on him.\n45 The ministers therefore came to the chief priests and the Pharisees. And they said to them: Why have you not brought him?\n46 The ministers answered: Never did man speak like this man.\n47 The Pharisees therefore answered them: Are you also seduced?\n48 Hath any one of the rulers believed in him, or of the Pharisees?\n49 But this multitude, that knoweth not the law, are accursed.\n50 Nicodemus said to them, (he that came to him by night, who was one of them:)\n51 Doth our law judge any man, unless it first hear him, and know what he doth?\n52 They answered, and said to him: Art thou also a Galilean?

Maccabees*, chapter *4*.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\n*1 Maccabees Chapter 4*\n1 Then Gorgias took five thousand men, and a thousand of the best horsemen: and they removed out of the camp by night.\n2 That they might come upon the camp of the Jews, and strike them suddenly: and the men that were of the castle were their guides.\n3 And Judas heard of it, and rose up, he and the valiant men, to attack the king's forces that were in Emmaus.\n4 For as yet the army was dispersed from the camp.\n5 And Gorgias came by night into the camp of Judas, and found no man, and he sought them in the mountains: for he said: These men flee from us.\n6 And when it was day, Judas shewed himself in the plain with three thousand men only, who neither had armour nor swords.\n7 And they saw the camp of the Gentiles that it was strong, and the men in breastplates, and the horsemen round about them, and these were trained up to war.\n8 And Judas said to the men that were with him: Fear ye not their multitude, neither be ye afraid of their assault.\n9 Remember in what manner our fathers were saved in the Red Sea, when Pharao pursued them with a great army.\n10 And now let us cry to heaven: and the Lord will have mercy on us, and will remember the covenant of our fathers, and will destroy this army before our face this day:\n11 And all nations shall know that there is one that redeemeth and delivereth Israel.\n12 And the strangers lifted up their eyes, and saw them coming against them.\n13 And they went out of the camp to battle, and they that were with Judas sounded the trumpet.\n14 And they joined battle: and the Gentiles were routed, and fled into the plain.\n15 But all the hindmost of them fell by the sword, and they pursued them as far as Gezeron, and even to the plains of Idumea, and of Azotus, and of Jamnia: and there fell of them to the number of three thousand men.\n16 And Judas returned again with his army that followed him,\n17 And he said to the people: Be not greedy of the spoils: for there is war before us:\n18 And Gorgias and his army are near us in the mountain: but stand ye now against our enemies, and overthrow them, and you shall take the spoils afterwards with safety.\n19 And as Judas was speaking these words, behold part of them appeared looking forth from the mountain.\n20 And Gorgias saw that his men were put to flight, and that they had set fire to the camp: for the smoke that was seen declared what was done.\n21 And when they had seen this, they were seized with great fear, seeing at the same time Judas and his army in the plain ready to fight.\n22 So they all fled away into the land of the strangers.\n23 And Judas returned to take the spoils of the camp, and they got much gold, and silver, and blue silk, and purple of the sea, and great riches.\n24 And returning home they sung a hymn, and blessed God in heaven, because he is good, because his mercy endureth for ever.\n25 So Israel had a great deliverance that day.\n26 And such of the strangers as escaped, went and told Lysias all that had happened.\n27 And when he heard these things, he was amazed and discouraged: because things had not succeeded in Israel according to his mind, and as the king had commanded.\n28 So the year following Lysias gathered together threescore thousand chosen men, and five thousand horsemen, that he might subdue them.\n29 And they came into Judea, and pitched their tents in Bethoron, and Judas met them with ten thousand men.\n30 And they saw that the army was strong, and he prayed, and said: Blessed art thou, O Saviour of Israel, who didst break the violence of the mighty by the hand of thy servant David, and didst deliver up the camp of the strangers into the hands of Jonathan the son of Saul and of his armourbearer.\n31 Shut up this army in the hands of thy people Israel, and let them be confounded in their host and their horsemen.\n32 Strike them with fear, and cause the boldness of their strength to languish, and let them quake at their own destruction.\n33 Cast them down with the sword of them that love thee: and let all that know thy name, praise thee with hymns.\n34 And they joined battle: and there fell of the army of Lysias five thousand men.\n35 And when Lysias saw that his men were put to flight, and how bold the Jews were, and that they were ready either to live, or to die manfully, he went to Antioch, and chose soldiers, that they might come again into Judea with greater numbers.\n36 Then Judas, and his brethren said: Behold our enemies are discomfited: let us go up now to cleanse the holy places and to repair them.\n37 And all the army assembled together, and they went up into mount Sion.\n38 And they saw the sanctuary desolate, and the altar profaned, and the gates burnt, and shrubs growing up in the courts as in a forest, or on the mountains, and the chambers joining to the temple thrown down.\n39 And they rent their garments, and made great lamentation, and put ashes on their heads:\n40 And they fell face down to the ground on their faces, and they sounded with the trumpets of alarm, and they cried towards heaven.\n41 Then Judas appointed men to fight against them that were in the castle, till they had cleansed the holy places.\n42 And he chose priests without blemish, whose will was set upon the law of God:\n43 And they cleansed the holy places, and took away the stones that had been defiled into an unclean place.\n44 And he considered about the altar of holocausts that had been profaned, what he should do with it.\n45 And a good counsel came into their minds, to pull it down: lest it should be a reproach to them, because the Gentiles had defiled it; so they threw it down.\n46 And they laid up the stones in the mountain of the temple in a convenient place, till there should come a prophet, and give answer concerning them.\n47 Then they took whole stones according to the law, and built a new altar according to the former:\n48 And they built up the holy places, and the things that were within the temple: and they sanctified the temple, and the courts.\n49 And they made new holy vessels, and brought in the candlestick, and the altar of incense, and the table into the temple.\n50 And they put incense upon the altar, and lighted up the lamps that were upon the candlestick, and they gave light in the temple.\n51 And they set the loaves upon the table, and hung up the veils, and finished all the works that they had begun to make.\n52 And they arose before the morning on the five and twentieth day of the ninth month (which is the month of Casleu) in the hundred and forty-eighth year.\n53 And they offered sacrifice according to the law upon the new altar of holocausts which they had made.\n54 According to the time, and according to the day wherein the heathens had defiled it, in the same was it dedicated anew with canticles, and harps, and lutes, and cymbals.\n55 And all the people fell upon their faces, and adored, and blessed up to heaven, him that had prospered them.\n**56 And they kept the dedication of the altar eight days, and they offered holocausts with joy, and sacrifices of salvation, and of praise.**\n57 And they adorned the front of the temple with crowns of gold, and escutcheons, and they renewed the gates, and the chambers, and hanged doors upon them.\n58 And there was exceeding great joy among the people, and the reproach of the Gentiles was turned away.\n59 And Judas, and his brethren, and all the church of Israel decreed, that the day of the dedication of the altar should be kept in its season from year to year for eight days, from the five and twentieth day of the month of Casleu, with joy and gladness.\n60 They built up also at that time mount Sion, with high walls, and strong towers round about, lest the Gentiles should at any time come, and tread it down as they did before.\n61 And he placed a garrison there to keep it, and he fortified it to secure Bethsura, that the people might have a defence against Idumea.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord was come into

And he sought opportunity to betray him in the absence of the multitude.\n7 And the day of the unleavened bread came, on which it was necessary that the pasch should be killed.\n8 And he sent Peter and John, saying: Go, and prepare for us the pasch, that we may eat.\n9 But they said: Where wilt thou that we prepare?\n10 And he said to them: Behold, as you go into the city, there shall meet you a man carrying a pitcher of water: follow him into the house where he entereth in.\n11 And you shall say to the goodman of the house: The master saith to thee, Where is the guest chamber, where I may eat the pasch with my disciples?\n12 And he will shew you a large dining room, furnished; and there prepare.\n13 And they going, found as he had said to them, and made ready the pasch.\n14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.\n15 And he said to them: With desire I have desired to eat this pasch with you, before I suffer.\n16 For I say to you, that from this time I will not eat it, till it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.\n17 And having taken the chalice, he gave thanks, and said: Take, and divide it among you:\n18 For I say to you, that I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, till the kingdom of God come.\n19 And taking bread, he gave thanks, and brake; and gave to them, saying: This is my body, which is given for you.

And he said to them, It is enough.\n39 And going out, he went, according to his custom, to the mount of Olives. And his disciples also followed him.\n40 And when he was come to the place, he said to them: Pray, lest ye enter into temptation.\n41 And he was withdrawn away from them a stone's cast; and kneeling down, he prayed,\n42 Saying: Father, if thou wilt, remove this chalice from me: but yet not my will, but thine be done.\n43 And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.

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 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.\n**70 Then said they all: Art thou then the Son of God?

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

Now the camp of Madian was beneath him in the valley.\n9 The same night the Lord said to him: Arise, and go down into the camp: because I have delivered them into thy hand.\n10 But if thou be afraid to go alone, let Phara thy servant go down with thee.\n11 And when thou shalt hear what they are saying, then shall thy hands be strengthened, and thou shalt go down more secure to the enemies' camp. And he went down with Phara his servant into part of the camp, where was the watch of men in arms.\n12 But Madian and Amalec, and all the eastern people lay scattered in the valley, as a multitude of locusts: their camels also were innumerable as the sand that lieth on the sea shore.\n13 And when Gedeon was come, one told his neighbour a dream: and in this manner related what he had seen: I dreamt a dream, and it seemed to me as if a hearth cake of barley bread rolled and came down into the camp of Madian: and when it was come to a tent it struck it, and beat it down flat to the ground.\n14 He to whom he spoke, answered: This is nothing else but the sword of Gedeon the son of Joas a man of Israel. For the Lord hath delivered Madian, and all their camp into his hand.\n15 And when Gedeon had heard the dream, and the interpretation thereof, he adored: and returned to the camp of Israel, and said: Arise, for the Lord hath delivered the camp of Madian into our hands.\n16 And he divided the three hundred men into three parts, and gave them trumpets in their hands, and empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.\n17 And he said to them: What you shall see me do, do you the same: I will go into one part of the camp, and do you as I shall do.\n18 When the trumpet shall sound in my hand, do you also blow the trumpets on every side of the camp.\n19 And Gedeon, and the three hundred men that were with him, went into part of the camp, at the beginning of the midnight watch, and the watchmen being alarmed, they began to sound their trumpets, and to clap the pitchers one against another.\n20 And when they sounded their trumpets in three places round about the camp, and had broken their pitchers, they held their lamps in their left hands, and with their right hands the trumpets which they blew, and they cried out: The sword of the Lord and of Gedeon;\n21 Standing every man in his place round about the enemies' camp. So all the camp was troubled, and crying out and howling they fled away.\n22 And the three hundred men nevertheless persisted sounding the trumpets.

And 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 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. 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.

Phenenna had children: but Anna had no children.\n3 And this man went up out of his city upon the appointed days, to adore and to offer sacrifice to the Lord of hosts in Silo. And the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were there priests of the Lord.\n4 Now the day came, and Elcana offered sacrifice, and gave to Phenenna his wife, and to all her sons and daughters, portions:\n5 But to Anna he gave one portion with sorrow, because he loved Anna. And the Lord had shut up her womb.\n6 Her rival also afflicted her, and troubled her exceedingly, insomuch that she upbraided her, that the Lord had shut up her womb:\n7 And thus she did every year, when the time returned that they went up to the temple of the Lord: and thus she provoked her: but Anna wept, and did not eat.\n8 Then Elcana her husband said to her: Anna, why weepest thou? and why dost thou not eat? And why dost thou afflict thy heart? Am not I better to thee than ten children?\n9 So Anna arose after she had eaten and drunk in Silo: And Heli the priest sitting upon a stool, before the door of the temple of the Lord:\n10 As Anna had her heart full of grief, she prayed to the Lord, shedding many tears,\n11 And she made a vow, saying: O Lord, of hosts, if thou wilt look down on the affliction of thy servant, and wilt be mindful of me, and not forget thy handmaid, and wilt give to thy servant a man child: I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head.\n12 And it came to pass, as she multiplied prayers before the Lord, that Heli observed her mouth.\n13 Now Anna spoke in her heart, and only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard at all. Heli therefore thought her to be drunk,\n14 And said to her: How long wilt thou, be drunk? digest a little the wine, of which thou hast taken too much.\n15 Anna answering, said: Not so, my lord: for I am an exceeding unhappy woman, and have drunk neither wine nor any strong drink, but I have poured out my soul before the Lord.\n**16 Count not thy handmaid for one of the daughters of Belial: for out of the abundance of my sorrow and grief have I spoken till now.**\n17 Then Heli said to her: Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition, which thou hast asked of him.\n18 And she said: Would to God thy handmaid may find grace in thy eyes. So the woman went on her way, and ate, and her countenance was no more changed.\n19 And they rose in the morning, and worshipped before the Lord: and they returned, and came into their house at Ramatha. And Elcana knew Anna his wife: and the Lord remembered her.\n20 And it came to pass when the time was come about, Anna conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel: because she had asked him of the Lord.\n21 And Elcana her husband went up, and all his house, to offer to the Lord the solemn sacrifice, and his vow.\n22 But Anna went not up: for she said to her husband: I will not go till the child be weaned, and till I may carry him, that he may appear before the Lord, and may abide always there.\n23 And Elcana her husband said to her: Do what seemeth good to thee, and stay till thou wean him: and I pray that the Lord may fulfill his word. So the woman stayed at home, and gave her son suck, till she weaned him.\n24 And after she had weaned him, she carried him with her, with three calves, and three bushels of flour, and a bottle of wine, and she brought him to the house of the Lord in Silo. Now the child was as yet very young:\n25 And they immolated a calf, and offered the child to Heli.\n26 And Anna said: I beseech thee, my lord, as thy soul liveth, my lord: I am that woman who stood before thee here praying to the Lord.\n27 For this child did I pray, and the Lord hath granted me my petition, which I asked of him.\n28 Therefore I also have lent him to the Lord all the days of his life, he shall be lent to the Lord.

And therefore he commanded his chariot to be driven, without stopping in his journey, the judgment of heaven urging him forward, because he had spoken so proudly, that he would come to Jerusalem, and make it a common burying place of the Jews.\n5 But the Lord the God of Israel, that seeth all things, struck him with an incurable and an invisible plague. For as soon as he had ended these words, a dreadful pain in his bowels came upon him, and bitter torments of the inner parts.\n6 And indeed very justly, seeing he had tormented the bowels of others with many and new torments, albeit he by no means ceased from his malice.\n7 Moreover being filled with pride, breathing out fire in his rage against the Jews, and commanding the matter to be hastened, it happened as he was going with violence that he fell from the chariot, so that his limbs were much pained by a grievous bruising of the body.\n8 Thus he that seemed to himself to command even the waves of the sea, being proud above the condition of man, and to weigh the heights of the mountains in a balance, now being cast down to the ground, was carried in a litter, bearing witness to the manifest power of God in himself:\n9 So that worms swarmed out of the body of this man, and whilst he lived in sorrow and pain, his flesh fell off, and the filthiness of his smell was noisome to the army.\n10 And the man that thought a little before he could reach to the stars of heaven, no man could endure to carry, for the intolerable stench.\n11 And by this means, being brought from his great pride, he began to come to the knowledge of himself, being admonished by the scourge of God, his pains increasing every moment.\n12 And when he himself could not now abide his own stench, he spoke thus: It is just to be subject to God, and that a mortal man should not equal himself to God.\n13 Then this wicked man prayed to the Lord, of whom he was not like to obtain mercy.\n14 And the city to which he was going in haste to lay it even with the ground, and to make it a, common buryingplace, he now desireth to make free.\n15 And the Jews whom he said he would not account worthy to be so much as buried, but would give them up to be devoured by the birds and wild beasts, and would utterly destroy them with their children, he now promiseth to make equal with the Athenians.\n16 The holy temple also which before he had spoiled, he promiseth to adorn with goodly gifts, and to multiply the holy vessels, and to allow out of his revenues the charges pertaining to the sacrifices.\n17 Yea also, that he would become a Jew himself, and would go through every place of the earth, and declare the power of God.\n18 But his pains not ceasing (for the just judgment of God was come upon him) despairing of life he wrote to the Jews in the manner of a supplication, a letter in these words:\n19 To his very good subjects the Jews, Antiochus king and ruler wisheth much health and welfare, and happiness.\n20 If you and your children are well, and if all matters go with you to your mind, we give very great thanks.\n**21 As for me, being infirm, but yet kindly remembering you, returning out of the places of Persia, and being taken with a grievous disease, I thought it necessary to take care for the common good:**\n22 Not distrusting my life, but having great hope to escape the sickness.\n23 But considering that my father also, at what time he led an army into the higher countries, appointed who should reign after him:\n24 To the end that if any thing contrary to expectation should fall out, or any bad tidings should be brought, they that were in the countries, knowing to whom the whole government was left, might not be troubled.\n25 Moreover, considering that neighbouring princes and borderers wait for opportunities, and expect what shall be the event, I have appointed my son Antiochus king, whom I often recommended to many of you, when I went into the higher provinces: and I have written to him what I have joined here below.\n26 I pray you therefore, and request of you, that remembering favours both public and private, you will every man of you continue to be faithful to me and to my son.\n27 For I trust that he will behave with moderation and humanity, and following my intentions, will be gracious unto you.\n28 Thus the murderer and blasphemer, being grievously struck, as himself had treated others, died a miserable death in a strange country among the mountains.\n29 But Philip that was brought up with him, carried away his body:

And in like manner the husband also hath not power of his own body, but the wife.\n5 Defraud not one another, except, perhaps, by consent, for a time, that you may give yourselves to prayer; and return together again, lest Satan tempt you for your incontinency.\n6 But I speak this by indulgence, not by commandment.\n7 For I would that all men were even as myself: but every one hath his proper gift from God; one after this manner, and another after that.\n8 But I say to the unmarried, and to the widows: It is good for them if they so continue, even as I.\n9 But if they do not contain themselves, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to be burnt.\n10 But to them that are married, not I but the Lord commandeth, that the wife depart not from her husband.\n11 And if she depart, that she remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband. And let not the husband put away his wife.\n12 For to the rest I speak, not the Lord. If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she consent to dwell with him, let him not put her away.\n13 And if any woman hath a husband that believeth not, and he consent to dwell with her, let her not put away her husband.\n14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the believing wife; and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the believing husband: otherwise your children should be unclean; but now they are holy.\n15 But if the unbeliever depart, let him depart. For a brother or sister is not under servitude in such cases. But God hath called us in peace.\n16 For how knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? Or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?\n17 But as the Lord hath distributed to every one, as God hath called every one, so let him walk: and so in all churches I teach.\n18 Is any man called, being circumcised? let him not procure uncircumcision. Is any man called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.\n19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing: but the observance of the commandments of God.\n20 Let every man abide in the same calling in which he was called.\n21 Wast thou called, being a bondman? care not for it; but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.\n22 For he that is called in the Lord, being a bondman, is the freeman of the Lord. Likewise he that is called, being free, is the bondman of Christ.\n23 You are bought with a price; be not made the bondslaves of men.\n24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he was called, therein abide with God.\n25 Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord; but I give counsel, as having obtained mercy of the Lord, to be faithful.\n26 I think therefore that this is good for the present necessity, that it is good for a man so to be.\n27 Art thou bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.\n28 But if thou take a wife, thou hast not sinned. And if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned: nevertheless, such shall have tribulation of the flesh. But I spare you.\n29 This therefore I say, brethren; the time is short; it remaineth, that they also who have wives, be as if they had none;\n30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as if they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;\n31 And they that use this world, as if they used it not: for the fashion of this world passeth away.\n**32 But I would have you to be without solicitude. He that is without a wife, is solicitous for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please God.**\n33 But he that is with a wife, is solicitous for the things of the world, how he may please his wife: and he is divided.\n34 And the unmarried woman and the virgin thinketh on the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she that is married thinketh on the things of the world, how she may please her husband.\n35 And this I speak for your profit: not to cast a snare upon you; but for that which is decent, and which may give you power to attend upon the Lord, without impediment.\n36 But if any man think that he seemeth dishonoured, with regard to his virgin, for that she is above the age, and it must so be: let him do what he will; he sinneth not, if she marry.\n37 For he that hath determined being steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but having power of his own will; and hath judged this in his heart, to keep his virgin, doth well.\n38 Therefore, both he that giveth his virgin in marriage, doth well; and he that giveth her not, doth better.\n39 A woman is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband die, she is at liberty: let her marry to whom she will; only in the Lord.\n40 But more blessed shall she be, if she so remain, according to my counsel; and I think that I also have the spirit of God.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where does it say \"Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to do this?\", in the bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Bible, the verse \"Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to do this?\" can be found in the book of 1 Corinthians, chapter 9, verse 6 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and what chapter and verse include \"But me thy servant, and Sadoc the priest, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and Solomon thy servant he hath not invited.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"But me thy servant, and Sadoc the priest, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and Solomon thy servant he hath not invited.\" appears in 1 Kings, chapter 1, at verse 26 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Tell me what 1 Samuel 2:32 says", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at 1 Samuel 2:32 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"And thou shalt see thy rival in the temple, in all the prosperity of Israel, and there shall not be an old man in thy house for ever.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where does it say \"As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are certain things hard to be understood, which the unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, to their own destruction.\", in the bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of 2 Peter, chapter 3, verse 16 of the New Testament, you'll find \"As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are certain things hard to be understood, which the unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, to their own destruction.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which chapter and book contains \"Let no man therefore judge you in meat or in drink, or in respect of a festival day, or of the new moon, or of the sabbaths,\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That verse comes from *Colossians*, chapter *2*.\n\nCheck out the whole chapter:\n*Colossians Chapter 2*\n1 For I would have you know, what manner of care I have for you and for them that are at Laodicea, and whosoever have not seen my face in the flesh:\n2 That their hearts may be comforted, being instructed in charity, and unto all riches of fulness of understanding, unto the knowledge of the mystery of God the Father and of Christ Jesus:\n3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.\n4 Now this I say, that no man may deceive you by loftiness of words.\n5 For though I be absent in body, yet in spirit I am with you; rejoicing, and beholding your order, and the steadfastness of your faith which is in Christ.\n6 As therefore you have received Jesus Christ the Lord, walk ye in him;\n7 Rooted and built up in him, and confirmed in the faith, as also you have learned, abounding in him in thanksgiving.\n8 Beware lest any man cheat you by philosophy, and vain deceit; according to the tradition of men, according to the elements of the world, and not according to Christ:\n9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead corporeally;\n10 And you are filled in him, who is the head of all principality and power:\n11 In whom also you are circumcised with circumcision not made by hand, in despoiling of the body of the flesh, but in the circumcision of Christ:\n12 Buried with him in baptism, in whom also you are risen again by the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him up from the dead.\n13 And you, when you were dead in your sins, and the uncircumcision of your flesh; he hath quickened together with him, forgiving you all offences:\n14 Blotting out the handwriting of the decree that was against us, which was contrary to us.

And Jesus said to them: Yea, have you never read: Out of the mouth of infants and of sucklings thou hast perfected praise?\n17 And leaving them, he went out of the city into Bethania, and remained there.\n18 And in the morning, returning into the city, he was hungry.\n19 And seeing a certain fig tree by the way side, he came to it, and found nothing on it but leaves only, and he saith to it: May no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And immediately the fig tree withered away.\n20 And the disciples seeing it wondered, saying: How is it presently withered away?\n21 And Jesus answering, said to them: Amen, I say to you, if you shall have faith, and stagger not, not only this of the fig tree shall you do, but also if you shall say to this mountain, Take up and cast thyself into the sea, it shall be done.\n22 And in all things whatsoever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive.\n23 And when he was come into the temple, there came to him, as he was teaching, the chief priests and ancients of the people, saying: By what authority dost thou these things? and who hath given thee this authority?\n24 Jesus answering, said to them: I also will ask you one word, which if you shall tell me, I will also tell you by what authority I do these things.\n25 The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven or from men?

There was a man an householder, who planted a vineyard, and made a hedge round about it, and dug in it a press, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen; and went into a strange country.\n34 And when the time of the fruits drew nigh, he sent his servants to the husbandmen that they might receive the fruits thereof.\n35 And the husbandmen laying hands on his servants, beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.\n36 Again he sent other servants more than the former; and they did to them in like manner.\n37 And last of all he sent to them his son, saying: They will reverence my son.\n38 But the husbandmen seeing the son, said among themselves: This is the heir: come, let us kill him, and we shall have his inheritance.\n39 And taking him, they cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him.\n40 When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do to those husbandmen?\n41 They say to him: He will bring those evil men to an evil end; and will let out his vineyard to other husbandmen, that shall render him the fruit in due season.\n42 Jesus saith to them: Have you never read in the Scriptures: The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?

The reed and the bulrush shall wither away.\n7 The channel of the river shall be laid bare from its fountain, and every thing sown by the water shall be dried up, it shall wither away, and shall be no more.\n8 The fishers also shall mourn, and all that cast a hook into the river shall lament, and they that spread nets upon the waters shall languish away.\n9 They shall be confounded that wrought in flax, combing and weaving fine linen.\n10 And its watery places shall be dry, all they shall mourn that made pools to take fishes.\n11 The princes of Tanis are become fools, the wise counsellors of Pharao have given foolish counsel: how will you say to Pharao: I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings?\n**12 Where are now thy wise men? let them tell thee, and shew what the Lord of hosts hath purposed upon Egypt.**\n13 The princes of Tanis are become fools, the princes of Memphis are gone astray, they have deceived Egypt, the stay of the people thereof.\n14 The Lord hath mingled in the midst thereof the spirit of giddiness: and they have caused Egypt to err in all its works, as a drunken man staggereth and vomiteth.\n15 And there shall be no work for Egypt, to make head or tail, him that bendeth down, or that holdeth back.\n16 In that day Egypt shall be like unto women, and they shall be amazed, and afraid, because of the moving of the hand of the Lord of hosts, which he shall move over it.\n17 And the land of Juda shall be a terror to Egypt: every one that shall remember it shall tremble because of the counsel of the Lord of hosts, which he hath determined concerning it.\n18 In that day there shall be five cities in the land of Egypt, speaking the language of Chanaan, and swearing by the Lord of hosts: one shall be called the city of the sun.\n19 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:\n20 It shall be for a sign, and for a testimony to the Lord of hosts in the land of Egypt.

chapter *1*.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\n*1 Maccabees Chapter 1*\n1 Now it came to pass, after that Alexander the son of Philip the Macedonian, who first reigned in Greece, coming out of the land of Cethim, had overthrown Darius king of the Persians and Medes:\n2 He fought many battles, and took the strong holds of all, and slew the kings of the earth:\n3 And he went through even to the ends of the earth, and took the spoils of many nations: and the earth was quiet before him.\n4 And he gathered a power, and a very strong army: and his heart was exalted and lifted up.\n5 And he subdued countries of nations, and princes: and they became tributaries to him.\n6 And after these things, he fell down upon his bed, and knew that he should die.\n7 And he called his servants the nobles that were brought up with him from his youth: and he divided his kingdom among them, while he was yet alive.\n8 And Alexander reigned twelve years, and he died.\n9 And his servants made themselves kings every one in his place:\n10 And they all put crowns upon themselves after his death, and their sons after them many years, and evils were multiplied in the earth.\n11 And there came out of them a wicked root, Antiochus the Illustrious, the son of king Antiochus, who had been a hostage at Rome: and he reigned in the hundred and thirty-seventh year of the kingdom of the Greeks.\n12 In those days there went out of Israel wicked men, and they persuaded many, saying: Let us go, and make a covenant with the heathens that are round about us: for since we departed from them, many evils have befallen us.\n13 And the word seemed good in their eyes.\n14 And some of the people determined to do this, and went to the king: and he gave them license to do after the ordinances of the heathens.\n15 And they built a place of exercise in Jerusalem, according to the laws of the nations:\n16 And they made themselves prepuces, and departed from the holy covenant, and joined themselves to the heathens, and were sold to do evil.\n17 And the kingdom was established before Antiochus, and he had a mind to reign over the land of Egypt, that he might reign over two kingdoms.\n18 And he entered into Egypt with a great multitude, with chariots and elephants, and horsemen, and a great number of ships:\n19 And he made war against Ptolemee king of Egypt, but Ptolemee was afraid at his presence, and fled, and many were wounded unto death.\n20 And he took the strong cities in the land of Egypt: and he took the spoils of the land of Egypt.\n21 And after Antiochus had ravaged Egypt in the hundred and forty-third year, he returned and went up against Israel.\n22 And he went up to Jerusalem with a great multitude.\n23 And he proudly entered into the sanctuary, and took away the golden altar, and the candlestick of light, and all the vessels thereof, and the table of proposition, and the pouring vessels, and the vials, and the little mortars of gold, and the veil, and the crowns, and the golden ornament that was before the temple: and he broke them all in pieces.\n24 And he took the silver and gold, and the precious vessels: and he took the hidden treasures which he found: and when he had taken all away he departed into his own country.\n25 And he made a great slaughter of men, and spoke very proudly.\n26 And there was great mourning in Israel, and in every place where they were.\n27 And the princes, and the ancients mourned, and the virgins and the young men were made feeble, and the beauty of the women was changed.\n28 Every bridegroom took up lamentation: and the bride that sat in the marriage bed, mourned:\n29 And the land was moved for the inhabitants thereof, and all the house of Jacob was covered with confusion.\n30 And after two full years the king sent the chief collector of his tributes to the cities of Juda, and he came to Jerusalem with a great multitude.\n**31 And he spoke to them peaceable words in deceit: and they believed him.**\n32 And he fell upon the city suddenly, and struck it with a great slaughter, and destroyed much people in Israel.\n33 And he took the spoils of the city, and burnt it with fire, and threw down the houses thereof, and the walls thereof round about:\n34 And they took the women captive, and the children, and the cattle they possessed.\n35 And they built the city of David with a great and strong wall, and with strong towers, and made it a fortress for them:\n36 And they placed there a sinful nation, wicked men, and they fortified themselves therein: and they stored up armour, and victuals, and gathered together the spoils of Jerusalem;\n37 And laid them up there: and they became a great snare.\n38 And this was a place to lie in wait against the sanctuary, and an evil devil in Israel.\n39 And they shed innocent blood round about the sanctuary, and defiled the holy place.\n40 And the inhabitants of Jerusalem fled away by reason of them, and the city was made the habitation of strangers, and she became a stranger to her own seed, and her children forsook her.\n41 Her sanctuary was desolate like a wilderness, her festival days were turned into mourning, her sabbaths into reproach, her honours were brought to nothing.\n42 Her dishonour was increased according to her glory, and her excellency was turned into mourning.\n43 And king Antiochus wrote to all his kingdom, that all the people should be one: and every one should leave his own law.\n44 And all nations consented according to the word of king Antiochus.\n45 And many of Israel consented to his service, and they sacrificed to idols, and profaned the sabbath.\n46 And the king sent letters by the hands of messengers to Jerusalem, and to all the cities of Juda: that they should follow the law of the nations of the earth,\n47 And should forbid holocausts and sacrifices, and atonements to be made in the temple of God.\n48 And should prohibit the sabbath, and the festival days, to be celebrated.\n49 And he commanded the holy places to be profaned, and the holy people of Israel.\n50 And he commanded altars to be built, and temples, and idols, and swine's flesh to be immolated, and unclean beasts.\n51 And that they should leave their children uncircumcised, and let their souls be defiled with all uncleannesses, and abominations, to the end that they should forget the law, and should change all the justifications of God.\n52 And that whosoever would not do according to the word of king Antiochus should be put to death.\n53 According to all these words he wrote to his whole kingdom, and he appointed rulers over the people that should force them to do these things.\n54 And they commanded the cities of Juda to sacrifice.\n55 Then many of the people were gathered to them that had forsaken the law of the Lord: and they committed evils in the land:\n56 And they drove away the people of Israel into lurking holes, and into the secret places of fugitives.\n57 On the fifteenth day of the month Casleu, in the hundred and forty-fifth year, king Antiochus set up the abominable idol of desolation upon the altar of God, and they built altars throughout all the cities of Juda round about:\n58 And they burnt incense, and sacrificed at the doors of the houses, and in the streets.\n59 And they cut in pieces, and burnt with fire the books of the law of God:\n60 And every one with whom the books of the testament of the Lord were found, and whosoever observed the law of the Lord, they put to death, according to the edict of the king.\n61 Thus by their power did they deal with the people of Israel, that were found in the cities month after month.\n62 And on the five and twentieth day of the month they sacrificed upon the altar of the idol that was over against the altar of God.\n63 Now the women that circumcised their children, were slain according to the commandment of king Antiochus.\n64 And they hanged the children about their necks in all their houses: and those that had circumcised them, they put to death.\n65 And many of the people of Israel determined with themselves, that they would not eat unclean things: and they chose rather to die than to be defiled with unclean meats.\n66 And they would not break the holy law of God, and they were put to death:\n67 And there was very great wrath upon the people.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is

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.

I will remember also the land:\n43 Which when she shall be left by them, shall enjoy her sabbaths, being desolate for them. But they shall pray for their sins, because they rejected my judgments, and despised my laws.\n44 And yet for all that when they were in the land of their enemies, I did not cast them off altogether, neither did I so despise them that they should be quite consumed, and I should make void my covenant with them.

And he took Joachaz away and carried him into Egypt, and he died there.\n**35 And Joakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharao, after he had taxed the land for every man, to contribute according to the commandment of Pharao: and he exacted both the silver and the gold of the people of the land, of every man according to his ability: to give to Pharao Nechao.**\n36 Joakim was five and twenty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Zebida the daughter of Phadaia of Ruma.\n37 And he did evil before the Lord according to all that his fathers had done.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "2 Maccabees, chapter 2, verse 13 - what does it say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "**Old Testament**\n*2 Maccabees 2:13 (Douay Rheims)*\n\"And these same things were set down in the memoirs and commentaries of Nehemias: and how he made a library, and gathered together out of the countries, the books both of the prophets, and of David, and the epistles of the kings. and concerning the holy gifts.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"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.

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

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

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?

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?

offered for the burnt sacrifice of the Lord, he shall perish out of his people.\n26 Moreover you shall not eat the blood of any creature whatsoever, whether of birds or beasts.\n27 Every one that eateth blood, shall perish from among the people.\n28 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n29 Speak to the children of Israel, saying: He that offereth a victim of peace offerings to the Lord, let him offer therewith a sacrifice also, that is, the libations thereof.\n30 He shall hold in his hands the fat of the victim, and the breast: and when he hath offered and consecrated both to the Lord, he shall deliver them to the priest,\n31 Who shall burn the fat upon the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.\n32 The right shoulder also of the victims of peace offerings shall fall to the priest for firstfruits.\n33 He among the sons of Aaron, that offereth the blood, and the fat, he shall have the right shoulder also for his portion.\n34 For the breast that is elevated and the shoulder that is separated I have taken of the children of Israel, from off their victims of peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest, and to his sons, by a law for ever, from all the people of Israel.\n35 This is the anointing of Aaron and his sons, in the ceremonies of the Lord, in the day when Moses offered them, that they might do the office of priesthood,\n36 And the things that the Lord commanded to be given them by the children of Israel, by a perpetual observance in their generations.\n**37 This is the law of holocaust, and of the sacrifice for sin, and for trespass,

He turned aside, and sat down.\n2 And Booz taking ten men of the ancients of the city, said to them: Sit ye down here.\n3 They sat down, and he spoke to the kinsman: Noemi, who is returned from the country of Moab, will sell a parcel of land that belonged to our brother Elimelech.\n4 I would have thee to understand this, and would tell thee before all that sit here, and before the ancients of my people. If thou wilt take possession of it by the right of kindred: buy it and possess it: but if it please thee not, tell me so, that I may know what I have to do. For there is no near kinsman besides thee, who art first, and me, who am second. But he answered: I will buy the field.\n5 And Booz said to him: When thou shalt buy the field at the woman's hand, thou must take also Ruth the Moabitess, who was the wife of the deceased: to raise up the name of thy kinsman in his inheritance.\n6 He answered: I yield up my right of next akin: for I must not cut off the posterity of my own family. Do thou make use of my privilege, which I profess I do willingly forego.\n7 Now this in former times was the manner in Israel between kinsmen, that if at any time one yielded his right to another: that the grant might be sure, the man put off his shoe, and gave it to his neighhour; this was a testimony of cession of right in Israel.\n8 So Booz said to his kinsman: Put off thy shoe. And immediately he took it off from his foot.\n9 And he said to the ancients and to all the people: You are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech's, and Chelion's, and Mahalon's, of the hand of Noemi:\n10 And have taken to wife Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahalon, to raise up the name of the deceased in his inheritance lest his name be cut off, from among his family and his brethren and his people.

For he is born of thy daughter in law: who loveth thee: and is much better to thee, than if thou hadst seven sons.\n16 And Noemi taking the child laid it in her bosom, and she carried it, and was a nurse unto it.\n17 And the women her neighbours, congratulating with her and saying: There is a son born to Noemi: called his name Obed: he is the father of Isai, the father of David.\n18 These are the generations of Phares: Phares begot Esron,\n19 Esron begot Aram, Aram begot Aminadab,\n20 Aminadab begot Nahasson, Nahasson begot Salmon,\n21 Salmon begot Booz, Booz begot Obed,\n22 Obed begot Isai, Isai begot David.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and what chapter and verse include \"Good things that are hidden in a mouth that is shut, are as masses of meat set about a grave.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The quote \"Good things that are hidden in a mouth that is shut, are as masses of meat set about a grave.\" is from Sirach 30:18 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" } ]

surrounded it: and raised works round about it.\n2 And the city was shut up and besieged till the eleventh year of king Sedecias,\n**3 The ninth day of the month: and a famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land.**\n4 And a breach was made into the city: and all the men of war fled in the night between the two walls by the king's garden, (now the Chaldees besieged the city round about,) and Sedecias fled by the way that leadeth to the plains of the wilderness.\n5 And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all the warriors that were with him were scattered, and left him:\n6 So they took the king, and brought him to the king of Babylon to Reblatha, and he gave judgment upon him.\n7 And he slew the sons of Sedecias before his face, and he put out his eyes, and bound him with chains, and brought him to Babylon.\n8 In the fifth month, the seventh day of the month, that is, the nineteenth year of the king of Babylon, came Nabuzardan commander of the army, a servant of the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem.\n9 And he burnt the house of the Lord, and the king's house, and the houses of Jerusalem, and every house he burnt with fire.\n10 And all the army of the Chaldees, which was with the commander of the troops, broke down the walls of Jerusalem round about.\n11 And Nabuzardan the

vessels of brass with which they ministered.\n15 Moreover also the censers, and the bowls, such as were of gold in gold, and such as were of silver in silver, the general of the army took away.\n16

And they said: Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, mighty in work and word before God and all the people;\n20 And how our chief priests and princes delivered him to be condemned to death, and crucified him.\n21 But we hoped, that it was he that should have redeemed Israel: and now besides all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.\n22 Yea and certain women also of our company affrighted us, who before it was light, were at the sepulchre,\n23 And not finding his body, came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, who say that he is alive.\n24 And some of our people went to the sepulchre, and found it so as the women had said, but him they found not.\n25 Then he said to them: O foolish, and slow of heart to believe in all things which the prophets have spoken.\n26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and so to enter into his glory?\n27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded to them in all the scriptures, the things that were concerning him.\n28 And they drew nigh to the town, whither they were going: and he made as though he would go farther.\n29 But they constrained him; saying: Stay with us, because it is towards evening, and the day is now far spent. And he went in with them.\n30 And it came to pass, whilst he was at table with them, he took bread, and blessed, and brake, and gave to them.\n31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him: and he vanished out of their sight.\n32 And they said one to the other: Was not our heart burning within us, whilst he spoke in this way, and opened to us the scriptures?\n33 And rising up, the same hour, they went back to Jerusalem: and they found the eleven gathered together, and those that were staying with them,\n34 Saying: The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.\n35 And they told what things were done in the way; and how they knew him in the breaking of the bread.\n36 Now whilst they were speaking these things, Jesus stood in the midst of them, and saith to them: Peace be to you; it is I, fear not.\n37 But they being troubled and frightened, supposed that they saw a spirit.\n38 And he said to them: Why are you troubled, and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?\n39 See my hands and feet, that it is I myself; handle, and see: for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as you see me to have.\n40 And when he had said this, he shewed them his hands and feet.\n41 But while they yet believed not, and wondered for joy, he said: Have you any thing to eat?\n42 And they offered him a piece of a broiled fish, and a honeycomb.\n43 And when he had eaten before them, taking the remains, he gave to them.\n44 And he said to them: These are the words which I spoke to you, while I was yet with you, that all things must needs be fulfilled, which are written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.\n45 Then he opened their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures.\n**46 And he said to them: Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise again from the dead, the third day:**\n47 And that penance and remission of sins should be preached in his name, unto all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.\n48 And you are witnesses of these things.\n49 And I send the promise of my Father upon you: but stay you in the city till you be endued with power from on high.\n50 And he led them out as far as Bethania: and lifting up his hands, he blessed them.\n51 And it came to pass, whilst he blessed them, he departed from them, and was carried up to heaven.\n52 And they adoring went back into Jerusalem with great joy.\n53 And they were always in the temple, praising and blessing God.

And one row had fifteen pillars,\n4 Set one against another,\n5 And looking one upon another, with equal space between the pillars, and over the pillars were square beams in all things equal.\n6 And he made a porch of pillars of fifty cubits in length, and thirty cubits in breadth: and another porch before the greater porch: and pillars, and chapiters upon the pillars.\n7 He made also the porch of the throne, wherein is the seat of judgment: and covered it with cedar wood from the floor to the top.\n8 And in the midst of the porch, was a small house where he sat in judgment, of the like work. He made also a house for the daughter of Pharao (whom Solomon had taken to wife) of the same work, as this porch,\n9 All of costly stones, which were sawed by a certain rule and measure both within and without: from the foundation to the top of the walls, and without unto the great court.\n10 And the foundations were of costly stones, great stones of ten cubits or eight cubits:\n11 And above there were costly stones, or equal measure, hewed; and, in like manner, planks of cedar:\n12 And the greater court was made round with three rows of hewed stones, and one row of planks of cedar, moreover also in the inner court of the house of the Lord, and in the porch of the house.\n13 And king Solomon sent, and brought Hiram from Tyre,\n14 The son of a widow woman of the tribe of Nephtali, whose father was a Tyrian, an artificer in brass, and full of wisdom, and understanding, and skill to work all work in brass. And when he was come to king Solomon, he wrought all his work.\n15 And he cast two pillars in brass, each pillar was eighteen cubits high: and a line of twelve cubits compassed both the pillars.\n16 He made also two chapiters of molten brass, to be set upon the tops of the pillars: the height of one chapiter was five cubits, and the height of the other chapiter was five cubits:\n17 And a kind of network, and chain work wreathed together with wonderful art. Both the chapiters of the pillars were cast: seven rows of nets were on one chapiter, and seven nets on the other chapiter.\n18 And he made the pillars, and two rows round about each network to cover the chapiters, that were upon the top, with pomegranates: and in like manner did he to the other chapiter.\n19 And the chapiters that were upon the top of the pillars, were of lily work in the porch, of four cubits.\n20 And again other chapiters in the top of the pillars above, according to the measure of the pillar over against the network: and of pomegranates there were two hundred in rows round about the other chapiter.\n21 And he set up the two pillars in the porch of the temple: and when he had set up the pillar on the right hand, he called the name thereof Jachin: in like manner he set up the second pillar, and called the name thereof Booz.\n22 And upon the tops of the pillars he made lily work: so the work of the pillars was finished.\n23 He made also a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round all about; the height of it was five cubits, and a line of thirty cubits compassed it round about.\n24 And a graven work under the brim of it compassed it, for ten cubits going about the sea: there were two rows cast of chamfered sculptures.\n25 And it stood upon twelve oxen, of which three looked towards the north, and three towards the west, and three towards the south, and three towards the east, and the sea was above upon them, and their hinder parts were all hid within.\n26 And the laver was a handbreadth thick: and the brim thereof was like the brim of a cup, or the leaf of a crisped lily: it contained two thousand bates.\n27 And he made ten bases of brass, every base was four cubits in length, and four cubits in breadth, and three cubits high.\n28 And the work itself of the bases, was intergraven: and there were gravings between the joinings.\n29 And between the little crowns and the ledges were lions, and oxen, and cherubims: and in the joinings likewise above: and under the lions and oxen, as it were bands of brass hanging down.\n30 And every base had four wheels, and axletrees of brass: and at the four sides were undersetters under the laver molten, looking one against another.\n31 The mouth also of the laver within, was in the top of the chapiter: and that which appeared without, was of one cubit all round, and together it was one cubit and a half: and in the corners of the pillars were divers engravings: and the spaces between the pillars were square, not round.\n32 And the four wheels, which were at the four corners of the base, were joined one to another under the base: the height of a wheel was a cubit and a half.\n33 And they were such wheels as are used to be made in a chariot: and their axletrees, and spokes, and strakes, and naves, were all east.\n34 And the four undersetters that were at every corner of each base, were of the base itself cast and joined together.\n35 And in the top of the base there was a round compass of half a cubit, so wrought that the laver might be set thereon, having its gravings, and divers sculptures of itself.\n36 He engraved also in those plates, which were of brass. and in the corners, cherubims, and lions, and palm trees, in likeness of a man standing, so that they seemed not to be engraven, but added round about.\n37 After this manner he made ten bases, of one casting and measure, and the like graving.\n38 He made also ten lavers of brass: one laver contained four bases, and was of four cubits: and upon every base, in all ten, he put as many lavers.\n39 And he set the ten bases, five on the right side of the temple, and five on the left: and the sea he put on the right side of the temple over against the east southward.\n40 And Hiram made caldrons, and shovels, and basins, and finished all the work of king Solomon in the temple of the Lord.\n**41 The two pillars and the two cords of the chapiters, upon the chapiters of the pillars: and the two networks, to cover the two cords, that were upon the top of the pillars.**\n42 And four hundred pomegranates for the two networks: two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the cords of the chapiters, which were upon the tops of the pillars.\n43 And the ten bases, and the ten lavers on the bases.\n44 And one sea, and twelve oxen under the sea.\n45 And the caldrons, and the shovels, and the basins.

And Amnon said to him: I am in love with Thamar the sister of my brother Absalom.\n5 And Jonadab said to him: Lie down upon thy bed, and feign thyself sick: and when thy father shall come to visit thee, say to him: Let my sister Thamar, I pray thee, come to me, to give me to eat, and to make me a mess, that I may eat it at her hand.\n6 So Amnon lay down, and made as if he were sick: and when the king came to visit him, Amnon said to the king: I pray thee let my sister Thamar come, and make in my sight two little messes, that I may eat at her hand.\n7 Then David sent home to Thamar, saying: Come to the house of thy brother Amnon, and make him a mess.\n8 And Thamar came to the house of Amnon her brother: but he was laid down: and she took meal and tempered it: and dissolving it in his sight she made little messes.\n9 And taking what she had boiled, she poured it out, and set it before him, but he would not eat: and Amnon said: Put out all persons from me. And when they had put all persons out,\n10 Amnon said to Thamar: Bring the mess into the chamber, that I may eat at thy hand. And Thamar took the little messes which she had made, and brought them in to her brother Amnon in the chamber.\n11 And when she had presented him the meat, he took hold of her, and said: Come lie with me, my sister.\n12 She answered him: Do not so, my brother, do not force me: for no such thing must be done in Israel. Do not thou this folly.\n13 For I shall not be able to bear my shame, and thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel: but rather speak to the king, and he will not deny me to thee.\n14 But he would not hearken to her prayers, but being stronger overpowered her and lay with her.\n15 Then Amnon hated her with an exceeding great hatred: so that the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her before, And Amnon said to her: Arise, and get thee gone.\n16 She answered him: This evil which now thou dost against me, in driving me away, is greater than that which thou didst before. And he would not hearken to her:\n17 But calling the servants that ministered to him, he said: Thrust this woman out from me: and shut the door after her.\n18 And she was clothed with along robe: for the king's daughters that were virgins, used such kind of garments. Then his servant thrust her out: and shut the door after her.\n19 And she put ashes on her head, and rent her long robe and laid her hands upon her head, and went on crying.\n20 And Absalom her brother said to her: Hath thy brother Amnon lain with thee? but now, sister, hold thy peace, he is thy brother: and afflict not thy heart for this thing. So Thamar remained pining away in the house of Absalom her brother.\n21 And when king David heard of these things he was exceedingly grieved: and he would not afflict the spirit of his son Amnon, for he loved him, because he was his firstborn.\n22 But Absalom spoke not to Amnon neither good nor evil: for Absalom hated Amnon because he had ravished his sister Thamar.\n23 And it came to pass after two years, that the sheep of Absalom were shorn in Baalhasor, which is near Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king's sons:\n24 And he came to the king, and said to him: Behold thy servant's sheep are shorn. Let the king, I pray, with his servants come to his servant.\n25 And the king said to Absalom: Nay, my son, do not ask that we should all come, and be chargeable to thee. And when he pressed him, and he would not go, he blessed him.\n26 And Absalom said: If thou wilt not come, at least let my brother Amnon, I beseech thee, come with us. And the king said to him: It is not necessary that he should go with thee.\n27 But Absalom pressed him, so that he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him. And Absalom made a feast as it were the feast of a king.\n**28 And Absalom had commanded his servants, saying: Take notice when Amnon shall be drunk with wine, and when I shall say to you: Strike him, and kill him, fear not: for it is I that command you: take courage, and be valiant men.**\n29 And the servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded them.

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": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"And all the prophets prophesied in like manner, and said: Go up to Ramoth Galaad, and thou shalt prosper, and the Lord will deliver them into the king's hand.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book *2 Chronicles*, chapter *18*.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\n*2 Chronicles Chapter 18*\n1 Now Josaphat was rich and very glorious, and was joined by affinity to Achab.\n2 And he went down to him after some years to Samaria: and Achab at his coming killed sheep and oxen in abundance for him and the people that came with him: and he persuaded him to go up to Ramoth Galaad.\n3 And Achab king of Israel said to Josaphat king of Juda: Come with me to Ramoth Galaad. And he answered him: Thou art as I am, and my people as thy people, and we will be with thee in the war.\n4 And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: Inquire, I beseech thee, at present the word of the Lord.\n5 So the king of Israel gathered together of the prophets four hundred men, and he said to them: Shall we go to Ramoth Galaad to fight, or shall we forbear? But they said: Go up, and God will deliver it into the king's hand.\n6 And Josaphat said: Is there not here a prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire also of him?\n7 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: There is one man, of whom we may ask the will of the Lord: but I hate him, for he never prophesieth good to me, but always evil: and it is Micheas the son of Jemla. And Josaphat said: Speak not thus, O king.\n8 And the king of Israel called one of the eunuchs, and said to him: Call quickly Micheas the son of Jemla.\n9 Now the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda, both sat on their thrones, clothed in royal robes, and they sat in the open court by the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets prophesied before them.\n10 And Sedecias the son of Chanaana made him horns of iron, and said: Thus saith the Lord: With these shalt thou push Syria, till thou destroy it.\n**11 And all the prophets prophesied in like manner, and said: Go up to Ramoth Galaad, and thou shalt prosper, and the Lord will deliver them into the king's hand.**\n12 And the messenger that went to call Micheas, said to him: Behold the words of all the prophets with one mouth declare good to the king: I beseech thee therefore let not thy word disagree with them, and speak thou also good success.\n13 And Micheas answered him: As the Lord liveth, whatsoever my God shall say to me, that will I speak.\n14 So he came to the king: and the king said to him: Micheas, shall we go to Ramoth Galaad to fight, or forbear? And he answered him: Go up, for all shall succeed prosperously, and the enemies shall be delivered into your hands.\n15 And the king said: I adjure thee again and again to say nothing but the truth to me, in the name of the Lord.\n16 Then he said: I saw all Israel scattered in the mountains, like sheep without a shepherd: and the Lord said: These have no masters: let every man return to his own house in peace.\n17 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Did I not tell thee that this man would not prophesy me any good, but evil?\n18 Then he said: Hear ye therefore the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on the right hand and on the left.\n19 And the Lord said: Who shall deceive Achab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall in Ramoth Galaad? And when one spoke in this manner, and another otherwise:\n20 There came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said: I will deceive him. And the Lord said to him: By what means wilt thou deceive him?\n21 And he answered: I will go out, and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And the Lord said: Thou shalt deceive, and shalt prevail: go out, and do so.\n22 Now therefore behold the Lord hath put a spirit of lying in the mouth of all thy prophets, and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee.\n23 And Sedecias the son of Chanaana came, and struck Micheas on the cheek and said: Which way went the spirit of the Lord from me, to speak to thee?\n24 And Micheas said: Thou thyself shalt see in that day, when thou shalt go in from chamber to chamber, to hide thyself.\n25 And the king of Israel commanded, saying: Take Micheas, and carry him to Amen the governor of the city, and to Joas the son of Amelech,\n26 And say: Thus saith the king: Put this fellow in prison, and give him bread and water in a small quantity till I return in peace.\n27 And Micheas said: If thou return in peace, the Lord hath not spoken by me.
