Tell me therefore the dream, that I may know that you also give a true interpretation thereof.\n10 Then the Chaldeans answered before the king, and said: There is no man upon earth, that can accomplish thy word, O king, neither doth any king, though great and mighty, ask such a thing of any diviner, or wise man, or Chaldean.\n11 For the thing that thou askest, O king, is difficult; nor can any one be found that can shew it before the king, except the gods, whose conversation is not with men.\n12 Upon hearing this, the king in fury, and in great wrath, commanded that all the wise men of Babylon should be put to death.\n13 And the decree being gone forth, the wise men were slain: and Daniel and his companions were sought for, to be put to death.\n14 Then Daniel inquired concerning the law and the sentence, of Arioch the general of the king's army, who was gone forth to kill the wise men of Babylon.\n15 And he asked him that had received the orders of the king, why so cruel a sentence was gone forth from the face of the king. And when Arioch had told the matter to Daniel,\n16 Daniel went in and desired of the king, that he would give him time to resolve the question and declare it to the king.\n17 And he went into his house, and told the matter to Ananias, and Misael, and Azarias his companions:\n18 To the end that they should ask mercy at the face of the God of heaven concerning this secret, and that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.\n19 Then was the mystery revealed to Daniel by a vision in the night: and Daniel blessed the God of heaven,\n20 And speaking he said: Blessed be the name of the Lord from eternity and for evermore: for wisdom and fortitude are his.\n21 And he changeth times and ages: taketh away kingdoms and establisheth them, giveth wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to them that have understanding.\n22 He revealeth deep and hidden things, and knoweth what is in darkness: and light is with him.\n23 To thee, O God of our fathers, I give thanks, and I praise thee: because thou hast given me wisdom and strength: and now thou hast shewn me what we desired of thee, for thou hast made known to us, the king's discourse.\n24 After this Daniel went in to Arioch, to whom the king had given orders to destroy the wise men of Babylon, and he spoke thus to him: Destroy not the wise men of Babylon: bring me in before the king, and I will tell the solution to the king.\n25 Then Arioch in haste brought in Daniel to the king, and said to him: I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Juda, that will resolve the question to the king.\n26 The king answered, and said to Daniel, whose name was Baltassar: Thinkest thou indeed that thou canst tell me the dream that I saw, and the interpretation thereof?\n27 And Daniel made answer before the king, and said: The secret that the king desireth to know, none of the wise men, or the philosophers, or the diviners, or the soothsayers can declare to the king.\n28 But there is a God in heaven that revealeth mysteries, who hath shewn to thee, O king Nabuchodonosor, what is to come to pass in the latter times. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these:\n29 Thou, O king, didst begin to think in thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth mysteries shewed thee what shall come to pass.\n30 To me also this secret is revealed, not by any wisdom that I have more than all men alive: but that the interpretation might be made manifest to the king, and thou mightest know the thoughts of thy mind.\n31 Thou, O king, sawest, and behold there was as it were a great statue: this statue, which was great and high, tall of stature, stood before thee, and the look thereof was terrible.\n32 The head of this statue was of fine gold, but the breast and the arms of silver, and the belly and the thighs of brass:\n33 And the legs of iron, the feet part of iron and part of clay.\n34 Thus thou sawest, till a stone was cut out of a mountain without hands: and it struck the statue upon the feet thereof that were of iron and of clay, and broke them in pieces.\n35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of a summer's thrashingfloor, and they were carried away by the wind: and there was no place found for them: but the stone that struck the statue, became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.\n36 This is the dream: we will also tell the interpretation thereof before thee, O king.\n37 Thou art a king of kings: and the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, and strength, and power, and glory:\n38 And all places wherein the children of men, and the beasts of the field do dwell: he hath also given the birds of the air into thy hand, and hath put all things under thy power: thou therefore art the head of gold.\n39 And after thee shall rise up another kingdom, inferior to thee, of silver: and another third kingdom of brass, which shall rule over all the world.\n40 And the fourth kingdom shall be as iron. As iron breaketh into pieces, and subdueth all things, so shall that break and destroy all these.\n41 And whereas thou sawest the feet, and the toes, part of potter's clay, and part of iron: the kingdom shall be divided, but yet it shall take its origin from the iron, according as thou sawest the iron mixed with the miry clay.\n42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.\n43 And whereas thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall be mingled indeed together with the seed of man, but they shall not stick fast one to another, as iron cannot be mixed with clay.\n44 But in the days of those kingdoms the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed, and his kingdom shall not be delivered up to another people, and it shall break in pieces, and shall consume all these kingdoms, and itself shall stand for ever.\n45 According as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and broke in pieces, the clay, and the iron, and the brass, and the silver, and the gold, the great God hath shewn the king what shall come to pass hereafter, and the dream is true, and the interpretation thereof is faithful.\n46 Then king Nabuchodonosor fell on his face, and worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer in sacrifice to him victims and incense.\n47 And the king spoke to Daniel, and said: Verily your God is the God of gods, and Lord of kings, and a revealer of hidden things: seeing thou couldst discover this secret.\n48 Then the king advanced Daniel to a high station, and gave him many and great gifts: and he made him governor over all the provinces of Babylon, and chief of the magistrates over all the wise men of Babylon.\n49 And Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago over the works of the province of Babylon: but Daniel himself was in the king's palace.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you provide the book, chapter, and verse for \"Proving what is well pleasing to God:\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture \"Proving what is well pleasing to God:\" is located in Ephesians 5:10 of the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"Thou shalt not commit adultery.\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in Exodus, chapter 20.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\nExodus Chapter 20\n1 And the Lord spoke all these words:\n2 I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.\n3 Thou shalt not have strange gods before me.\n4 Thou shalt not make to thyself a graven thing, nor the likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or in the earth beneath, nor of those things that are in the waters under the earth.\n5 Thou shalt not adore them, nor serve them: I am the Lord thy God, mighty, jealous, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me:\n6 And shewing mercy unto thousands to them that love me, and keep my commandments.\n7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain: for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that shall take the name of the Lord his God in vain.\n8 Remember that thou keep holy the sabbath day.\n9 Six days shalt thou labour, and shalt do all thy works.\n10 But on the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: thou shalt do no work on it, thou nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy beast, nor the stranger that is within thy gates.\n11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and the sea, and all things that are in them, and rested on the seventh day: therefore the Lord blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it.\n12 Honour thy father and thy mother, that thou mayest be longlived upon the land which the Lord thy God will give thee.\n13 Thou shalt not kill.\n14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.\n15 Thou shalt not steal.\n16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.\n17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house: neither shalt thou desire his wife, nor his servant, nor his handmaid, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is his.\n18 And all the people saw the voices and the flames, and the sound of the trumpet, and the mount smoking: and being terrified and struck with fear, they stood afar off,\n19 Saying to Moses: Speak thou to us, and we will hear: let not the Lord speak to us, lest we die.\n20 And Moses said to the people: Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that the dread of him might be in you, and you should not sin.\n21 And the people stood afar off.

God forbid. For I also am an Israelite of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.\n2 God hath not cast away his people, which he foreknew. 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.\n26 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?

And he said:\n5 For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be in one flesh.\n6 Therefore now they are not two, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let no man put asunder.\n7 They say to him: Why then did Moses command to give a bill of divorce, and to put away?\n8 He saith to them: Because Moses by reason of the hardness of your heart permitted you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.\n9 And I say to you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and he that shall marry her that is put away, committeth adultery.\n10 His disciples say unto him: If the case of a man with his wife be so, it is not expedient to marry.\n11 Who said to them: All men take not this word, but they to whom it is given.\n12 For there are eunuchs, who were born so from their mother's womb: and there are eunuchs, who were made so by men: and there are eunuchs, who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven.

from the market, unless they be washed, they eat not: and many other things there are that have been delivered to them to observe, the washings of cups and of pots, and of brazen vessels, and of

Well did Isaias prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written: This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.\n7 And in vain do they worship me, teaching doctrines and

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.

Heli therefore thought her to be drunk,\n14 And said to her: How long wilt thou, be drunk? digest a little the wine, of which thou hast taken too much.\n15 Anna answering, said: Not so, my lord: for I am an exceeding unhappy woman, and have drunk neither wine nor any strong drink, but I have poured out my soul before the Lord.\n16 Count not thy handmaid for one of the daughters of Belial: for out of the abundance of my sorrow and grief have I spoken till now.\n17 Then Heli said to her: Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition, which thou hast asked of him.\n18 And she said: Would to God thy handmaid may find grace in thy eyes. So the woman went on her way, and ate, and her countenance was no more changed.\n19 And they rose in the morning, and worshipped before the Lord: and they returned, and came into their house at Ramatha.

And Jesus said to him: Go, and do thou in like manner.\n38 Now it came to pass as they went, that he entered into a certain town: and a certain woman named Martha, received him into her house.\n39 And she had a sister called Mary, who sitting also at the Lord's feet, heard his word.\n40 But Martha was busy about much serving. Who stood and said: Lord, hast thou no care that my sister hath left me alone to serve? speak to her therefore, that she help me.\n41 And the Lord answering, said to her: Martha, Martha, thou art careful, and art troubled about many things:\n42 But one thing is necessary.

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 he gave him to his mother.\n16 And there came a fear on them all: and they glorified God, saying: A great prophet is risen up among us: and, God hath visited his people.\n17 And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judea, and throughout all the country round about.\n18 And John's disciples told him of all these things.\n19 And John called to him two of his disciples, and sent them to Jesus, saying: Art thou he that art to come; or look we for another?\n20 And when the men were come unto him, they said: John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying: Art thou he that art to come; or look we for another?\n21 (And in that same hour, he cured many of their diseases, and hurts, and evil spirits: and to many that were blind he gave sight.)\n22 And answering, he said to them: Go and relate to John what you have heard and seen: the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are made clean, the deaf hear, the dead rise again, to the poor the gospel is preached:\n23 And blessed is he whosoever shall not be scandalized in me.\n24 And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak to the multitudes concerning John.

But he that is the lesser in the kingdom of God, is greater than he.\n29 And all the people hearing, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with John's baptism.\n30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers despised the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized by him.\n31 And the Lord said: Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?\n32 They are like to children sitting in the marketplace, and speaking one to another, and saying: We have piped to you, and you have not danced: we have mourned, and you have not wept.\n33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and you say: He hath a devil.\n34 The Son of man is come eating and drinking: and you say: Behold a man that is a glutton and a drinker of wine, a friend of publicans and sinners.\n35 And wisdom is justified by all her children.\n36 And one of the Pharisees desired him to eat with him. And he went into the house of the Pharisee, and sat down to meat.\n37 And behold a woman that was in the city, a sinner, when she knew that he sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of ointment;\n38 And standing behind at his feet, she began to wash his feet, with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.\n39 And the Pharisee, who had invited him, seeing it, spoke within himself, saying: This man, if he were a prophet, would know surely who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him, that she is a sinner.\n40 And Jesus answering, said to him: Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee.

But to whom less is forgiven, he loveth less.\n48 And he said to her: Thy sins are forgiven thee.\n49 And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves: Who is this that forgiveth sins also?\n50 And he said to the woman: Thy faith hath made thee safe, go in peace.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you read Numbers chapter 25, verse 12?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Numbers 25:12 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"Therefore say to him: Behold I give him the peace of my covenant,\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and chapter does \"He will overshadow thee with his shoulders: and under his wings thou shalt trust.\" belong to?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of Psalm, chapter 90.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\nPsalm Chapter 90\n1 The praise of a canticle for David.

The word pleased the king: and he commanded it should be done as they had suggested.\n5 There was a man in the city of Susan, a Jew, named Mardochai, the son of Jair, the son of Semei, the son of Cis, of the race of Jemini,\n6 Who had been carried away from Jerusalem at the time that Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon carried away Jechonias king of Juda,\n7 And he had brought up his brother's daughter Edissa, who by another name was called Esther: now she had lost both her parents: and was exceeding fair and beautiful. And her father and mother being dead, Mardochai adopted her for his daughter.\n8 And when the king's ordinance was noised abroad, and according to his commandment many beautiful virgins were brought to Susan, and were delivered to Egeus the eunuch: Esther also among the rest of the maidens was delivered to him to be kept in the number of the women.\n9 And she pleased him, and found favour in his sight. And he commanded the eunuch to hasten the women's ornaments, and to deliver to her her part, and seven of the most beautiful maidens of the king's house, and to adorn and deck out both her and her waiting maids.\n10 And she would not tell him her people nor her country. For Mardochai had charged her to say nothing at all of that:\n11 And he walked every day before the court of the house, in which the chosen virgins were kept, having a care for Esther's welfare, and desiring to know what would befall her.\n12 Now when every virgin's turn came to go in to the king, after all had been done for setting them off to advantage, it was the twelfth month: so that for six months they were anointed with oil of myrrh, and for other six months they used certain perfumes and sweet spices.\n13 And when they were going in to the king, whatsoever they asked to adorn themselves they received: and being decked out, as it pleased them, they passed from the chamber of the women to the king's chamber.\n14 And she that went in at evening, came out in the morning, and from thence she was conducted to the second house, that was under the hand of Susagaz the eunuch, who had the charge over the king's concubines: neither could she return any more to the king, unless the king desired it, and had ordered her by name to come.\n15 And as the time came orderly about, the day was at hand, when Esther, the daughter of Abihail the brother of Mardochai, whom he had adopted for his daughter, was to go in to the king. But she sought not women's ornaments, but whatsoever Egeus the eunuch the keeper of the virgins had a mind, he gave her to adorn her. For she was exceeding fair, and her incredible beauty made her appear agreeable and amiable in the eyes of all.\n16 So she was brought to the chamber of king Assuerus the tenth month, which is called Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.\n17 And the king loved her more than all the women, and she had favour and kindness before him above all the women, and he set the royal crown on her head, and made her queen instead of Vasthi.\n18 And he commanded a magnificent feast to be prepared for all the princes, and for his servants, for the marriage and wedding of Esther. And he gave rest to all the provinces, and bestowed gifts according to princely magnificence.\n19 And when the virgins were sought the second time, and gathered together, Mardochai stayed at the king's gate,\n20 Neither had Esther as yet declared her country and people, according to his commandment. For whatsoever he commanded, Esther observed: and she did all things in the same manner as she was wont at that time when he brought her up a little one.\n21 At that time, therefore, when Mardochai abode at the king's gate, Bagathan and Thares, two of the king's eunuchs, who were porters, and presided in the first entry of the palace, were angry: and they designed to rise up against the king, and to kill him.\n22 And Mardochai had notice of it, and immediately he told it to queen Esther: and she to the king in Mardochai's name, who had reported the thing unto her.\n23 It was inquired into, and found out: and they were both hanged on a gibbet.

hundred and sixtieth year Alexander the son of Antiochus, surnamed the Illustrious, came up and took Ptolemais, and they received him, and he reigned there.\n2 And king Demetrius heard of it, and gathered together an exceeding great army, and went forth against him to fight.\n3 And Demetrius sent a letter to Jonathan with peaceable words, to magnify him.\n4 For he said: Let us first make a peace with him, before he make one with Alexander against us.\n5 For he will remember all the evils that we have done against him, and against his brother, and against his nation.\n6 And he gave him authority to gather together an army, and to make arms, and that he should be his confederate: and the hostages that were in the castle, he commanded to be delivered to him.\n7 And Jonathan came to Jerusalem, and read the letters in the hearing of all the people, and of them that were in the castle.\n8 And they were struck with great fear, because they heard that the king had given him authority to gather together an army.\n9 And the hostages were delivered to Jonathan, and he restored them to their parents.\n10 And Jonathan dwelt in Jerusalem, and began to build, and to repair the city.\n11 And he ordered workmen to build the walls, and mount Sion round about with square stones for fortification: and so they did.\n12 And the strangers that were in the strong holds, which Bacchides had built, fled away.\n13 And every man left his place, and departed into his own country:\n14 Only in Bethsura there remained some of them, that had forsaken the law, and the commandments of God: for this was a place of refuge for them.\n15 And king Alexander heard of the promises that Demetrius had made Jonathan: and they told him of the battles, and the worthy acts that he, and his brethren had done, and the labours that they had endured.\n16 And he said: Shall we find such another man? now therefore we will make him our friend and our confederate.\n17 So he wrote a letter, and sent it to him according to these words, saying:\n18 King Alexander to his brother Jonathan, greeting.\n19 We have heard of thee, that thou art a man of great power, and fit to be our friend:\n20 Now therefore we make thee this day high priest of thy nation, and that thou be called the king's friend, (and he sent him a purple robe, and a crown of gold,) and that thou be of one mind with us in our affairs, and keep friendship with us.\n21 Then Jonathan put on the holy vestment in the seventh month, in the year one hundred and threescore, at the feast day of the tabernacles: and he gathered together an army, and made a great number of arms.\n22 And Demetrius heard these words, and was exceeding sorry, and said:\n23 What is this that we have done, that Alexander hath prevented us to gain the friendship of the Jews to strengthen himself?\n24 I also will write to them words of request, and offer dignities, and gifts: that they may be with me to aid me.\n25 And he wrote to them in these words: King Demetrius to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n26 Whereas you have kept covenant with us, and have continued in our friendship, and have not joined with our enemies, we have heard of it, and are glad.\n27 Wherefore now continue still to keep fidelity towards us, and we will reward you with good things, for what you have done in our behalf.\n28 And we will remit to you many charges, and will give you gifts.\n29 And now I free you, and all the Jews from tributes, and I release you from the customs of salt, and remit the crowns, and the thirds of the seed:\n30 And the half of the fruit of trees, which is my share, I leave to you from this day forward, so that it shall not be taken of the land of Juda, and of the three cities that are added thereto out of Samaria and Galilee, from this day forth and for ever:\n31 And let Jerusalem be holy and free, with the borders thereof: and let the tenths, and tributes be for itself.\n32 I yield up also the power of the castle that is in Jerusalem, and I give it to the high priest, to place therein such men as he shall choose to keep it.\n33 And every soul of the Jews that hath been carried captive from the land of Juda in all my kingdom, I set at liberty freely, that all be discharged from tributes even of their cattle.\n34 And I will that all the feasts, and the sabbaths, and the new moons, and the days appointed, and three days before the solemn day, and three days after the solemn day, be all days of immunity and freedom, for all the Jews that are in my kingdom:\n35 And no man shall have power to do any thing against them, or to molest any of them, in any cause.\n36 And let there be enrolled in the king's army to the number of thirty thousand of the Jews: and allowance shall be made them as is due to all the king's forces, and certain of them shall be appointed to be in the fortresses of the great king:\n37 And some of them shall be set over the affairs of the kingdom, that are of trust, and let the governors be taken from among themselves, and let them walk in their own laws, as the king hath commanded in the land of Juda.\n38 And the three cities that are added to Judea, out of the country of Samaria, let them be accounted with Judea: that they may be under one, and obey no other authority but that of the high priest:\n39 Ptolemais, and the confines thereof, I give as a free gift to the holy places, that are in Jerusalem, for the necessary charges of the holy things.\n40 And I give every year fifteen thousand sicles of silver out of the king's accounts, of what belongs to me:\n41 And all that is above, which they that were over the affairs the years before, had not paid, from this time they shall give it to the works of the house.\n42 Moreover the five thousand sicles of silver which they received from the account of the holy places, every year, shall also belong to the priests that execute the ministry.\n43 And whosoever shall flee into the temple that is in Jerusalem, and in all the borders thereof, being indebted to the king for any matter, let them be set at liberty, and all that they have in my kingdom, let them have it free.\n44 For the building also, or repairing the works of the holy places, the charges shall be given out of the king's revenues:\n45 For the building also of the walls of Jerusalem, and the fortifying thereof round about, the charges shall be given out of the king's account, as also for the building of the walls in Judea.\n46 Now when Jonathan, and the people heard these words, they gave no credit to them nor received them: because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel, for he had afflicted them exceedingly.\n47 And their inclinations were towards Alexander, because he had been the chief promoter of peace in their regard, and him they always helped.\n48 And king Alexander gathered together a great army, and moved his camp near to Demetrius.\n49 And the two kings joined battle, and the army of Demetrius fled away, and Alexander pursued after him, and pressed them close.\n50 And the battle was hard fought till the sun went down: and Demetrius was slain that day.\n51 And Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemee king of Egypt, with words to this effect, saying:\n52 Forasmuch as I am returned into my kingdom, and am set in the throne of my ancestors and have gotten the dominion, and have overthrown Demetrius, and possessed our country,\n53 And have joined battle with him, and both he and his army have been destroyed by us, and we are placed in the throne of his kingdom:\n54 Now therefore let us make friendship one with another: and give me now thy daughter to wife, and I will be thy son in law, and I will give both thee and her gifts worthy of thee.\n55 And king Ptolemee answered, saying: Happy is the day wherein thou didst return to the land of thy fathers, and sattest in the throne of their kingdom.\n56 And now I will do to thee as thou hast written: but meet me at Ptolemais, that we may see one another, and I may give her to thee as thou hast said.\n57 So Ptolemee went out of Egypt, with Cleopatra his daughter, and he came to Ptolemais in the hundred and sixty-second year.\n58 And king Alexander met him, and he gave him his daughter Cleopatra: and he celebrated her marriage at Ptolemais, with great glory, after the manner of kings.\n59 And king Alexander wrote to Jonathan, that he should come and meet him.\n60 And he went honourably to Ptolemais, and he met there the two kings, and he gave them much silver, and gold, and presents: and he found favour in their sight.\n61 And some pestilent men of Israel, men of a wicked life, assembled themselves against him to accuse him: and the king gave no heed to them.\n62 And he commanded that Jonathan's garments should be taken off, and that he should be clothed with purple: and they did so. And the king made him sit by himself.\n63 And he said to his princes: Go out with him into the midst of the city, and make proclamation, that no man complain against him of any matter, and that no man trouble him for any manner of cause.\n64 So when his accusers saw his glory proclaimed, and him clothed with purple, they all fled away.\n65 And the king magnified him, and enrolled him amongst his chief friends, and made him governor and partaker of his dominion.\n66 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with peace and joy.\n67 In the year one hundred and sixty-five Demetrius the son of Demetrius came from Crete into the land of his fathers.\n68 And king Alexander heard of it, and was much troubled, and returned to Antioch.\n69 And king Demetrius made Apollonius his general, who was governor of Celesyria: and he gathered together a great army, and came to Jamnia: and he sent to Jonathan the high priest,\n70 Saying: Thou alone standest against us, and I am laughed at, and reproached, because thou shewest thy power against us in the mountains.\n71 Now therefore if thou trustest in thy forces, come down to us into the plain, and there let us try one another: for with me is the strength of war.\n72 Ask, and learn who I am, and the rest that help me, who also say that your foot cannot stand before our face, for thy fathers have twice been put to flight in their own land:\n73 And now how wilt thou be able to abide the horsemen, and so great an army in the plain, where there is no stone, nor rock, nor place to flee to?\n74 Now when Jonathan heard the words of Apollonius, he was moved in his mind: and he chose ten thousand men, and went out of Jerusalem, and Simon his brother met him to help him.\n75 And they pitched their tents near Joppe, but they shut him out of the city: because a garrison of Apollonius was in Joppe, and he laid siege to it.\n76 And they that were in the city being affrighted, opened the gates to him: so Jonathan took Joppe.\n77 And Apollonius heard of it, and he took three thousand horsemen, and a great army.\n78 And he went to Azotus as one that was making a journey, and immediately he went forth into the plain: because he had a great number of horsemen, and he trusted in them. And Jonathan followed after him to Azotus, and they joined battle.\n79 And Apollonius left privately in the camp a thousand horsemen behind them.\n80 And Jonathan knew that there was an ambush behind him, and they surrounded his army, and cast darts at the people from morning till evening.\n81 But the people stood still, as Jonathan had commanded them: and so their horses were fatigued.\n82 Then Simon drew forth his army, and attacked the legion: for the horsemen were wearied: and they were discomfited by him, and fled.\n83 And they that were scattered about the plain, fled into Azotus, and went into Bethdagon their idol's temple, there to save themselves.\n84 But Jonathan set fire to Azotus, and the cities that were around it, and took the spoils of them, and the temple of Dagon: and all them that were fled into it, he burnt with fire.\n85 So they that were slain by the sword, with them that were burnt, were almost eight thousand men.\n86 And Jonathan removed his army from thence, and camped against Ascalon: and they went out of the city to meet him with great honour.\n87 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with his people, having many spoils.\n88 And it came to pass: When Alexander the king heard these words, that he honoured Jonathan yet more.\n89 And he sent him a buckle of gold, as the custom is, to be given to such as are of the royal blood. And he gave him Accaron and all the borders thereof in possession.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does 2 Maccabees chapter 7 verse 23 say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, 2 Maccabees chapter 7, verse 23 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"But the Creator of the world, that formed the nativity of man, and that found out the origin of all, he will restore to you again in his mercy, both breath and life, as now you despise yourselves for the sake of his laws.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Find and read 2 Samuel chapter 13, verse 27", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from 2 Samuel 13:27, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"But Absalom pressed him, so that he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.

but God had mercy on him; and not only on him, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.\n28 Therefore I sent him the more speedily: that seeing him again, you may rejoice, and I may be without sorrow.\n29 Receive him therefore with all joy in the Lord;

to carry the ark of God, but the Levites, whom the Lord hath chosen to carry it, and to minister unto himself for ever.\n3 And he gathered all Israel together into Jerusalem, that the ark of God might be brought into its place, which he had prepared for it.\n4 And the sons of Aaron also, and the Levites.\n5 Of the children of Caath, Uriel was the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twenty.\n6 Of

with your brethren, and brine the ark of the Lord the God of Israel to the place, which is prepared for it:\n13 Lest as the Lord at first struck us, because you were not present, the same should now also come to pass, by our doing some thing against the law.\n14 So the priests and the Levites were sanctified, to carry the ark of the Lord the God of Israel.\n15 And the sons of Levi took the ark of God as Moses had commanded, according to the word of the Lord, upon their shoulders, with the staves.\n16 And David spoke to the chiefs of the Levites, to appoint some of their brethren to be singers with musical instruments, to wit, on psalteries, and harps, and cymbals, that the joyful noise might resound on high.\n17 And they appointed Levites, Hemam the son of Joel, and of his brethren Asaph

And Jephte spoke all his words before the Lord in Maspha.\n12 And he sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, to say in his name, What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come against me, to waste my land?\n13 And he answered them: I Because Israel took away my land when he came up out of Egypt, from the confines of the Arnon unto the Jaboc and the Jordan: now therefore restore the same peaceably to me.\n14 And Jephte again sent word by them, and commanded them to say to the king of Ammon:\n15 Thus saith Jephte: Israel did not take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon:\n16 But when they came up out of Egypt, he walked through the desert to the Red Sea and came into Cades.\n17 And he sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying: Suffer me to pass through thy land.

He abode therefore in Cades,\n18 And went round the land of Edom at the side, and the land of Moab: and came over against the east coast of the land of Moab, and camped on the other side of the Arnon: and he would not enter the bounds of Moab.\n19 So Israel sent messengers to Sehon king of the Amorrhites, who dwelt in Hesebon, and they said to him: Suffer me to pass through thy land to the river.\n20 But he also despising the words of Israel, suffered him not to pass through his borders: but gathering an infinite multitude, went out against him to Jasa, and made strong opposition.\n21 And the Lord delivered him with all his army into the hands of Israel, and he slew him, and possessed all the land of the Amorrhite the inhabitant of that country,\n22 And all the coasts thereof from the Arnon to the Jaboc, and from the wilderness to the Jordan.\n23 So the Lord the God of Israel destroyed the Amorrhite, his people of Israel fighting against him, and wilt thou now possess this land?\n24 Are not those things which thy god Chamos possesseth, due to thee by right?

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

And when she was gone with her comrades and companions, she mourned her virginity in the mountains.\n39 And the two months being expired, she returned to her father, and he did to her as he had vowed, and she knew no man.

Now for their names, Samaria is Oolla, and Jerusalem is Ooliba.\n5 And Oolla committed fornication against me, and doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians that came to her,\n6 Who were clothed with blue, princes, and rulers, beautiful youths, all horsemen, mounted upon horses.\n7 And she committed her fornications with those chosen men, all sons of the Assyrians: and she defiled herself with the uncleanness of all them on whom she doted.\n8 Moreover also she did not forsake her fornications which she had committed in Egypt: for they also lay with her in her youth, and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and poured out their fornication upon her.\n9 Therefore have I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, into the hands of the sons of the Assyrians, upon whose lust she doted.\n10 They discovered her disgrace, took away her sons and daughters, and slew her with the sword: and they became infamous women, and they executed judgments in her.\n11 And when her sister Ooliba saw this, she was mad with lust more than she: and she carried her fornication beyond the fornication of her sister.\n12 Impudently prostituting herself to the children of the Assyrians, the princes, and rulers that came to her, clothed with divers colours, to the horsemen that rode upon horses, and to young men all of great beauty.\n13 And I saw that she was defiled, and that they both took one 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 Babylon, and all the Chaldeans, the nobles, and the kings, and princes, all the sons of the Assyrians, beautiful young men, all the captains, and rulers, the princes of princes, and the renowned horsemen.\n24 And they shall come upon thee well appointed with chariot and wheel, a multitude of people: they shall be armed against thee on every side with breastplate, and buckler, and helmet: and I will set judgment before them, and they shall judge thee by their judgments.\n25 And I will set my jealousy against thee, which they shall execute upon thee with fury: they shall cut off thy nose and thy ears: and what remains shall fall by the sword: they shall take thy sons, and thy daughters, and thy residue shall be devoured by fire.\n26 And they shall strip thee of thy garments, and take away the instruments of thy glory.\n27 And I will put an end to thy wickedness in thee, and thy fornication brought out of the land of Egypt: neither shalt thou lift up thy eyes to them, nor remember Egypt any more.\n28 For thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I will deliver thee into the hands of them whom thou hatest, into their hands with whom thy soul hath been glutted.\n29 And they shall deal with thee in hatred, and they shall take away all thy labours, and shall let thee go naked, and full of disgrace, and the disgrace of thy fornication shall be discovered, thy wickedness, and thy

me off behind thy back, bear thou also thy wickedness, and thy fornications.\n36 And the Lord spoke to me, saying: Son of man, dost thou judge Oolla, and Ooliba, and dost thou declare to them their

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 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.

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?

rulers that came to her, clothed with divers colours, to the horsemen that rode upon horses, and to young men all of great beauty.\n13 And I saw that she was defiled, and that they both took one 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

with thee in hatred, and they shall take away all thy labours, and shall let thee go naked, and full of disgrace, and the disgrace of thy fornication shall be discovered, thy wickedness, and thy fornications.\n30 They have done these things to thee, because thou hast played the harlot with the nations among which thou wast defiled with their idols.\n31 Thou hast walked in the way of thy

me off behind thy back, bear thou also thy wickedness, and thy fornications.\n36 And the Lord spoke to me, saying: Son of man, dost thou judge Oolla, and Ooliba, and dost thou declare to them their wicked deeds?\n37 Because they have committed adultery, and blood is in their hands, and they have committed fornication with their idols: moreover also their children, whom they bore to me, they have offered to them to be devoured.\n38 Yea, and they have done this to me. They polluted my sanctuary on the same day, and profaned my sabbaths.\n39 And when they sacrificed their children to their idols, and went into my sanctuary the same day to profane it: they did these things even in the midst of my house.\n40 They sent for men coming from afar, to whom they had sent a messenger: and behold they came: for whom thou didst wash thyself, and didst paint thy eyes, and wast adorned with women's ornaments.\n41 Thou sattest on a very fine bed, and a table was decked before thee: whereupon thou didst set my incense, and my ointment.\n42 And there was in her the voice of a multitude rejoicing: and to some that were brought of the multitude of men, and that came from the desert, they put bracelets on their hands, and beautiful crowns on their heads.\n43 And I said

And David said: Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thy sight, and he will say: Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved. But truly as the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, there is but one step (as I may say) between me and death.\n4 And Jonathan said to David: Whatsoever thy soul shall say to me, I will do for thee.\n5 And David said to Jonathan: Behold to morrow is the new moon, and I according to custom am wont to sit beside the king to eat: let me go then that I may be hid in the field till the evening of the third day.\n6 If thy father look and inquire for me, thou shalt answer him: David asked me that he might run to Bethlehem his own city: because there are solemn sacrifices there for all his tribe.\n7 If he shall say, It is well: thy servant shall have peace: but if he be angry, know that his malice is come to its height.\n8 Deal mercifully then with thy servant: for thou hast brought me thy servant into a covenant of the Lord with thee. But if there be any iniquity in me, do thou kill me, and bring me not in to thy father.\n9 And Jonathan said: Far be this from thee: for if I should certainly know that evil is determined by my father against thee, I could do no otherwise than tell thee.\n10 And David answered Jonathan: Who shall bring me word, if thy father should answer thee harshly concerning me?\n11 And Jonathan said to David: Come and let us go out into the field. And when they were both of them gone out into the field,\n12 Jonathan said to David: O Lord God of Israel, if I shall discover my father's mind, to morrow or the day after, and there be any thing good for David, and I send not immediately to thee, and make it known to thee,\n13 May the Lord do so and so to Jonathan and add still more. But if my father shall continue in malice against thee, I will discover it to thy ear, and will send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace, and the Lord be with thee, as he hath been with my father.\n14 And if I live, thou shalt shew me the kindness of the Lord: but if I die,\n15 Thou shalt not take away thy kindness from my house for ever, when the Lord shall have rooted out the enemies of David, every one of them from the earth, may he take away Jonathan from his house, and may the Lord require it at the hands of David's enemies.\n16 Jonathan therefore made a covenant with the house of David: and the Lord required it at the hands of David's enemies.\n17 And Jonathan swore again to David, because he loved him: for he loved him as his own soul.\n18 And Jonathan said to him: To morrow is the new moon, and thou wilt be missed:\n19 For thy seat will be empty till after to morrow. So thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place, where thou must be hid on the day when it is lawful to work, and thou shalt remain beside the stone, which is called Ezel.\n20 And I will shoot three arrows near it, and will shoot as if I were exercising myself at a mark.\n21 And I will send a boy, saying to him: Go and fetch me the arrows.\n22 If I shall say to the boy: Behold the arrows are on this side of thee, take them up: come thou to me, because, there is peace to thee, and there is no evil, as the Lord liveth. But if I shall speak thus to the boy: Behold the arrows are beyond thee: go in peace, for the Lord hath sent thee away.\n23 And concerning the word which I and thou have spoken, the Lord be between thee and me for ever.\n24 So David was hid in the field, and the new moon came, and the king sat down to eat bread.\n25 And when the king sat down upon his chair (according to custom) which was beside the wall, Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's side, and David's place appeared empty.\n26 And Saul said nothing that day, for he thought it might have happened to him, that he was not clean, nor purified.\n27 And when the second day after the new moon was come, David's place appeared empty again. And Saul said to Jonathan his son: Why cometh not the son of Isai to meat neither yesterday nor to day?\n28 And Jonathan answered Saul: He asked leave of me earnestly to go to Bethlehem,\n29 And he said: Let me go, for there is a solemn sacrifice in the city, one of my brethren hath sent for me: and now if I have found favour in thy eyes, I will go quickly, and see my brethren. For this cause he came not to the king's table.\n30 Then Saul being angry against Jonathan said to him: Thou son of a woman that is the ravisher of a man, do I not know that thou lovest the son of Isai to thy own confusion and to the confusion of thy shameless mother?\n31 For as long as the son of Isai liveth upon earth, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Therefore now presently send, and fetch him to me: for he is the son of death.\n32 And Jonathan answering Saul his father, said: Why shall he die: what hath he done?\n33 And Saul caught up a spear to strike him. And Jonathan understood that it was determined by his father to kill David.\n34 So Jonathan rose from the table in great anger, and did not eat bread on the second day after the new moon. For he was grieved for David, because his father had put him to confusion.\n35 And when the morning came, Jonathan went into the field, according to the appointment with David, and a little boy with him.\n36 And he said to his boy: Go, and fetch me the arrows which I shoot. And when the boy ran, he shot another arrow beyond the boy.\n37 The boy therefore came to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot: and Jonathan cried after the boy, and said: Behold the arrow is there further beyond thee.\n38 And Jonathan cried again after the boy, saying: Make haste speedily, stand not. And Jonathan's boy gathered up the arrows, and brought them to his master:\n39 And he knew not at all what was doing: for only Jonathan and David knew the matter.\n40 Jonathan therefore gave his arms to the boy, and said to him: Go, and carry them into the city.\n41 And when the boy was gone, David rose out of his place, which was towards the south, and falling on his face to the ground, adored thrice: and kissing one another, they wept together, but David more.\n42 And Jonathan said to David: Go in peace: and let all stand that we have sworn both of us in the name of the Lord, saying: The Lord be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed for ever.\n43 And David arose, and departed: and Jonathan went into the city.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Read me 2 Maccabees 13:1", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at 2 Maccabees 13:1 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"In the year one hundred and forty-nine, Judas understood that Antiochus Eupator was coming with a multitude against Judea,\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book is the quote \"Machabeus considering the coming of the multitude, and the divers preparations of armour, and the fierceness of the beasts, stretching out his hands to heaven, called upon the Lord, that worketh wonders, who giveth victory to them that are worthy, not according to the power of their arms, but according as it seemeth good to him.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of 2 Maccabees, chapter 15, verse 21 of the Old Testament, you'll find \"Machabeus considering the coming of the multitude, and the divers preparations of armour, and the fierceness of the beasts, stretching out his hands to heaven, called upon the Lord, that worketh wonders, who giveth victory to them that are worthy, not according to the power of their arms, but according as it seemeth good to him.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- Book: 2 Samuel\n- Chapter: 1\n- Verse: 24", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at 2 Samuel 1:24 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you with scarlet in delights, who gave ornaments of gold for your attire.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"For if I have injured them, or have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die.

the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him, and sitting down he taught them.\n3 And the scribes and the Pharisees bring unto him a woman taken in adultery: and they set her in the midst,\n4 And said to him: Master, this woman was even now taken in adultery.\n5 Now Moses in the law commanded us to stone such a one. But what sayest thou?\n6 And this they said tempting him, that they might accuse him. But Jesus bowing himself down, wrote with his finger on the ground.\n7 When therefore they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said to them: He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.\n8 And again stooping down, he wrote on the ground.\n9 But they hearing this, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest. And Jesus alone remained, and the woman standing in the midst.\n10 Then Jesus lifting up himself, said to her: Woman, where are they that accused thee? Hath no man condemned thee?\n11 Who said: No man, Lord. And Jesus said: Neither will I condemn thee. Go, and now sin no more.\n12 Again therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying: I am the light of the world: he that followeth me, walketh not in darkness, but shall have the light of life.\n13 The Pharisees therefore said to him: Thou givest testimony of thyself: thy testimony is not true.\n14 Jesus answered, and said to them: Although I give testimony of myself, my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go: but you know not whence I come, or whither I go.\n15 You judge according to the flesh: I judge not any man.\n16 And if I do judge, my judgment is true: because I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.\n17 And in your law it is written, that the testimony of two men is true.\n18 I am one that give testimony of myself: and the Father that sent me giveth testimony of me.\n19 They said therefore to him: Where is thy Father? Jesus answered: Neither me do you know, nor my Father: if you did know me, perhaps you would know my Father also.\n20 These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, teaching in the temple: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.\n21 Again therefore Jesus said to them: I go, and you shall seek me, and you shall die in your sin. Whither I go, you cannot come.\n22 The Jews therefore said: Will he kill himself, because he said: Whither I go, you cannot come?\n23 And he said to them: You are from beneath, I am from above. You are of this world, I am not of this world.\n24 Therefore I said to you, that you shall die in your sins. For if you believe not that I am he, you shall die in your sin.\n25 They said therefore to him: Who art thou? Jesus said to them: The beginning, who also speak unto you.\n26 Many things I have to speak and to judge of you. But he that sent me, is true: and the things I have heard of him, these same I speak in the world.\n27 And they understood not, that he called God his Father.\n28 Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know, that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak:\n29 And he that sent me, is with me, and he hath not left me alone: for I do always the things that please him.\n30 When he spoke these things, many believed in him.\n31 Then Jesus said to those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.\n32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.\n33 They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?\n34 Jesus answered them: Amen, amen I say unto you: that whosoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin.\n35 Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the son abideth for ever.\n36 If therefore the son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.\n37 I know that you are the children of Abraham: but you seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.\n38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do the things that you have seen with your father.\n39 They answered, and said to him: Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them: If you be the children of Abraham, do the works of Abraham.\n40 But now you seek to kill me, a man who have spoken the truth to you, which I have heard of God. This Abraham did not.\n41 You do the works of your father. They said therefore to him: We are not born of fornication: we have one Father, even God.\n42 Jesus therefore said to them: If God were your Father, you would indeed love me. For from God I proceeded, and came; for I came not of myself, but he sent me:\n43 Why do you not know my speech? Because you cannot hear my word.\n44 You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and he stood not in the truth; because truth is not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.\n45 But if I say the truth, you believe me not.\n46 Which of you shall convince me of sin? If I say the truth to you, why do you not believe me?\n47 He that is of God, heareth the words of God. Therefore you hear them not, because you are not of God.\n48 The Jews therefore answered, and said to him: Do not we say well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?\n49 Jesus answered: I have not a devil: but I honour my Father, and you have dishonoured me.\n50 But I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.\n51 Amen, amen I say to you: If any man keep my word, he shall not see death for ever.\n52 The Jews therefore said: Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest: If any man keep my word, he shall not taste death for ever.\n53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead. Whom dost thou make thyself?\n54 Jesus answered: If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father that glorifieth me, of whom you say that he is your God.\n55 And you have not known him, but I know him. And if I shall say that I know him not, I shall be like to you, a liar. But I do know him, and do keep his word.\n56 Abraham your father rejoiced that he might see my day: he saw it, and was glad.\n57 The Jews therefore said to him: Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?\n58 Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say to you, before Abraham was made, I am.\n59 They took up stones therefore to cast at him.

And this is the copy of the letters that the Spartans sent.\n20 The princes and the cities of the Spartans to Simon the high priest, and to the ancients, and the priests, and the rest of the people of the Jews their brethren, greeting.\n21 The ambassadors that were sent to our people, have told us of your glory, and honour, and joy: and we rejoice at their coming.\n22 And we registered what was said by them in the councils of the people in this manner: Numenius the son of Antiochus, and Antipater the son of Jason, ambassadors of the Jews, came to us to renew the former friendship with us.\n23 And it pleased the people to receive the men honourably, and to put a copy of their words in the public records, to be a memorial to the people of the Spartans. And we have written a copy of them to Simon the high priest.\n24 And after this Simon sent Numenius to Rome, with a great shield of gold the weight of a thousand pounds, to confirm the league with them. And when the people of Rome had heard\n25 These words, they said: What thanks shall we give to Simon, and his sons?\n26 For he hath restored his brethren, and hath driven away in fight the enemies of Israel from them: and they decreed him liberty, and registered it in tables of brass, and set it upon pillars in mount Sion.\n27 And this is a copy of the writing: The eighteenth day of the month Elul, in the year one hundred and seventy-two, being the third year under Simon the high priest at Asaramel,\n28 In a great assembly of the priests, and of the people, and the princes of the nation, and the ancients of the country, these things were notified: Forasmuch as there have often been wars in our country,\n29 And Simon the son of Mathathias of the children of Jarib, and his brethren have put themselves in danger, and have resisted the enemies of their nation, for the maintenance of their holy places, and the law: and have raised their nation to great glory.\n30 And Jonathan gathered together his nation, and was made their high priest, and he was laid to his people.\n31 And their enemies desired to tread down and destroy their country, and to stretch forth their hands against their holy places.\n32 Then Simon resisted and fought for his nation, and laid out much of his money, and armed the valiant men of his nation, and gave them wages:\n33 And he fortified the cities of Judea, and Bethsura that lieth in the borders of Judea, where the armour of the enemies was before: and he placed there a garrison of Jews.\n34 And he fortified Joppe which lieth by the sea: and Gazara, which bordereth upon Azotus, wherein the enemies dwelt before, and he placed Jews here: and furnished them with all things convenient for their reparation.\n35 And the people seeing the acts of Simon, and to what glory he meant to bring his nation, made him their prince, and high priest, because he had done all these things, and for the justice, and faith, which he kept to his nation, and for that he sought by all means to advance his people.\n36 And in his days things prospered in his hands, so that the heathens were taken away out of their country, and they also that were in the city of David in Jerusalem in the castle, out of which they issued forth, and profaned all places round about the sanctuary, and did much evil to its purity.\n37 And he placed therein Jews for the defence of the country, and of the city, and he raised up the walls of Jerusalem.\n38 And king Demetrius confirmed him in the high priesthood.\n39 According to these things he made him his friend, and glorified him with great glory.\n40 For he had heard that the Romans had called the Jews their friends, and confederates, and brethren, and that they had received Simon's ambassadors with honour:\n41 And that the Jews, and their priests, had consented that he should be their prince, and high priest for ever, till there should arise a faithful prophet:\n42 And that he should be chief over them, and that he should have the charge of the sanctuary, and that he should appoint rulers over their works, and over the country, and over the armour, and over the strong holds.\n43 And that he should have care of the holy places: and that he should be obeyed by all, and that all the writings in the country should be made in his name: and that he should be clothed with purple, and gold:\n44 And that it should not be lawful for any of the people, or of the priests, to disannul any of these things, or to gainsay his words, or to call together an assembly in the country without him: or to be clothed with purple, or to wear a buckle of gold:\n45 And whosoever shall do otherwise, or shall make void any of these things shall be punished.\n46 And it pleased all the people to establish Simon, and to do according to these words.\n47 And Simon accepted thereof, and was well pleased to execute the office of the high priesthood, and to be captain, and prince of the nation of the Jews, and of the priests, and to be chief over all.\n48 And they commanded that this writing should be put in tables of brass, and that they should be set up within the compass of the sanctuary, in a conspicuous

came to Jerusalem.\n12 But the hand of God was in Juda, to give them one heart to do the word of the Lord, according to the commandment of the king, and of the princes.\n13 And much people were assembled to Jerusalem to celebrate the solemnity of the unleavened bread in the second month:\n14 And they arose and destroyed the altars that were in Jerusalem, and took sway all things in which incense was burnt to idols, and cast them into the torrent Cedron.\n15 And they immolated the phase on the fourteenth day of the second month.

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?

over the river: for this manner of counsel has Achitophel given against you.\n22 So David arose, and all the people that were with him, and they passed over the Jordan, until it grew light, and not one of them was left that was not gone over the river.\n23 But Achitophel seeing that his counsel was not followed, saddled his ass, and arose and went home to his house and to his city, and putting his house in order, hanged himself, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father.\n24 But David came to the camp, and Absalom passed over the Jordan, be and all the men of Israel with him.\n25 Now

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.\n26 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?

Egypt gathered together an army, like the sand that lieth upon the sea shore, and many ships: and he sought to get the kingdom of Alexander by deceit, and join it to his own kingdom.\n2 And he went out into Syria with peaceable words, and they opened to him the cities, and met him: for king Alexander had ordered them to go forth to meet him, because he was his father in law.\n3 Now when Ptolemee entered into the cities, he put garrisons of soldiers in every city.\n4 And when he came near to Azotus, they shewed him the temple of Dagon that was burnt with fire, and Azotus, and the suburbs thereof that were destroyed, and the bodies that were cast abroad, and the graves of them that were slain in the battle, which they had made near the way.\n5 And they told the king that Jonathan had done these things, to make him odious: but the king held his peace.\n6 And Jonathan came to meet the king at Joppe with glory, and they saluted one another, and they lodged there.\n7 And Jonathan went with the king as far as the river, called Eleutherus: and he returned into Jerusalem.\n8 And king Ptolemee got the dominion of the cities by the sea side, even to Seleucia, and he devised evil designs against Alexander.\n9 And he sent ambassadors to Demetrius, saying: Come, let us make a league between us, and I will give thee my daughter whom Alexander hath, and thou shalt reign in the kingdom of thy father.\n10 For I repent that I have given him my daughter: for he hath sought to kill me.\n11 And he slandered him, because he coveted his kingdom.\n12 And he took away his daughter, and gave her to Demetrius, and alienated himself from Alexander, and his enmities were made manifest.\n13 And Ptolemee entered into Antioch, and set two crowns upon his head, that of Egypt, and that of Asia.\n14 Now king Alexander was in Cilicia at that time: because they that were in those places had rebelled.\n15 And when Alexander heard of it, he came to give him battle, and king Ptolemee brought forth his army, and met him with a strong power, and put him to flight.\n16 And Alexander fled into Arabia, there to be protected: and king Ptolemee was exalted.\n17 And Zabdiel the Arabian took off Alexander's head, and sent it to Ptolemee.\n18 And king Ptolemee died the third day after: and they that were in the strong holds were destroyed by them that were within the camp.\n19 And Demetrius reigned in the hundred and sixty-seventh year.\n20 In those days Jonathan gathered together them that were in Judea, to take the castle that was in Jerusalem: and they made many engines of war against it.\n21 Then some wicked men that hated their own nation, went away to king Demetrius, and told him that Jonathan was besieging the castle.\n22 And when he heard it, he was angry: and forthwith he came to Ptolemais, and wrote to Jonathan, that he should not besiege the castle, but should come to him in haste, and speak to him.\n23 But when Jonathan heard this, he bade them besiege it still: and he chose some of the ancients of Israel, and of the priests, and put himself in danger.\n24 And he took gold, and silver, and raiment, and many other presents, and went to the king to Ptolemais, and he found favour in his sight.\n25 And certain wicked men of his nation made complaints against him.\n26 And the king treated him as his predecessor had done before: and he exalted him in the sight of all his friends.\n27 And he confirmed him in the high priesthood, and all the honours he had before, and he made him the chief of his friends.\n28 And Jonathan requested of the king that he would make Judea free from tribute, and the three governments, and Samaria, and the confines thereof: and he promised him three hundred talents.\n29 And the king consented: and he wrote letters to Jonathan of all these things to this effect.\n30 King Demetrius to his brother Jonathan, and to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n31 We send you here a copy of the letter, which we have written to Lasthenes our parent concerning you, that you might know it.\n32 King Demetrius to Lasthenes his parent, greeting.\n33 We have determined to do good to the nation of the Jews who are our friends, and keep the things that are just with us, for their good will which they bear towards us.\n34 We have ratified therefore unto them all the borders of Judea, and the three cities, Apherema, Lydda, and Ramatha, which are added to Judea, out of Samaria, and all their confines, to be set apart to all them that sacrifice in Jerusalem, instead of the payments which the king received of them every year, and for the fruits of the land, and of the trees.\n35 And as for other things that belonged to us of the tithes, and of the tributes, from this time we discharge them of them: the saltpans also, and the crowns that were presented to us.\n36 We give all to them, and nothing hereof shall be revoked from this time forth and for ever.\n37 Now therefore see that thou make a copy of these things, and let it be given to Jonathan, and set upon the holy mountain, in a conspicuous place.\n38 And king Demetrius seeing that the land was quiet before him, and nothing resisted him, sent away all his forces, every man to his own place, except the foreign army, which he had drawn together from the islands of the nations: so all the troops of his fathers hated him.\n39 Now there was one Tryphon who had been of Alexander's party before: who seeing that all the army murmured against Demetrius, went to Emalchuel the Arabian, who brought up Antiochus the son of Alexander.\n40 And he pressed him much to deliver him to him, that he might be king in his father's place: and he told him all that Demetrius had done, and how his soldiers hated him. And he remained there many days.\n41 And Jonathan sent to king Demetrius, desiring that he would cast out them that were in the castle in Jerusalem, and those that were in the strong holds: because they fought against Israel.\n42 And Demetrius sent to Jonathan, saying: I will not only do this for thee, and for thy people, but I will greatly honour thee, and thy nation, when opportunity shall serve.\n43 Now therefore thou shalt do well if thou send me men to help me: for all my army is gone from me.\n44 And Jonathan sent him three thousand valiant men to Antioch: and they came to the king, and the king was very glad of their coming.\n45 And they that were of the city assembled themselves together, to the number of a hundred and twenty thousand men, and would have killed the king.\n46 And the king fled into the palace, and they of the city kept the passages of the city, and began to fight.\n47 And the king called the Jews to his assistance: and they came to him all at once, and they all dispersed themselves through the city.\n48 And they slew in that day a hundred thousand men, and they set fire to the city, and got many spoils that day, and delivered the king.\n49 And they that were of the city saw that the Jews had got the city as they would: and they were discouraged in their minds, and cried to the king, making supplication, and saying:\n50 Grant us peace, and let the Jews cease from assaulting us, and the city.\n51 And they threw down their arms, and made peace, and the Jews were glorified in the sight of the king, and in the sight of all that were in his realm, and were renowned throughout the kingdom, and returned to Jerusalem with many spoils.\n52 So king Demetrius sat in the throne of his kingdom: and the land was quiet before him.\n53 And he falsified all whatsoever he had said, and alienated himself from Jonathan, and did not reward him according to the benefits he had received from him, but gave him great trouble.\n54 And after this Tryphon returned, and with him Antiochus the young boy, who was made king, and put on the diadem.\n55 And there assembled unto him all the hands which Demetrius had sent away, and they fought against Demetrius, who turned his back and fled.\n56 And Tryphon took the elephants, and made himself master of Antioch.\n57 And young Antiochus wrote to Jonathan, saying: I confirm thee in the high priesthood, and I appoint thee ruler over the four cities, and to be one of the king's friends.\n58 And he sent him vessels of gold for his service, and he gave him leave to drink in gold, and to be clothed in purple, and to wear a golden buckle:\n59 And he made his brother Simon governor from the borders of Tyre even to the confines of Egypt.\n60 Then Jonathan went forth and passed through the cities beyond the river: and all the forces of Syria gathered themselves to him to help him, and he came to Ascalon, and they met him honourably out of the city.\n61 And he went from thence to Gaza: and they that were in Gaza shut him out: and he besieged it, and burnt all the suburbs round about, and took the spoils.\n62 And the men of Gaza made supplication to Jonathan, and he gave them the right hand: and he took their sons for hostages, and sent them to Jerusalem: and he went through the country as far as Damascus.\n63 And Jonathan heard that the generals of Demetrius were come treacherously to Cades, which is in Galilee, with a great army, purposing to remove him from the affairs of the kingdom:\n64 And he went against them: but left his brother Simon in the country.\n65 And Simon encamped against Bethsura, and assaulted it many days, and shut them up.\n66 And they desired him to make peace, and he granted it them: and he cast them out from thence, and took the city, and placed a garrison in it.\n67 And Jonathan, and his army encamped by the water of Genesar, and before it was light they were ready in the plain of Asor.\n68 And behold the army of the strangers met him in the plain, and they laid an ambush for him in the mountains: but he went out against them.\n69 And they that lay in ambush arose out of their places, and joined battle.\n70 And all that were on Jonathan's side fled, and none was left of them, but Mathathias the son of Absalom, and Judas the son of Calphi, chief captain of the army.\n71 And Jonathan rent his garments, and cast earth upon his head, and prayed.\n72 And Jonathan turned again to them to battle, and he put them to flight, and they fought.\n73 And they of his part that fled saw this, and they turned again to him, and they all with him pursued the enemies even to Cades to their own camp, and they came even thither.\n74 And there fell of the aliens in that day three thousand men: and Jonathan returned to Jerusalem.\n",

So as he turned, and was going away with indignation,\n13 His servants came to him, and said to him: Father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, surely thou shouldst have done it: how much rather what he now hath said to thee: Wash, and thou shalt he clean?\n14 Then he went down, and washed in the Jordan seven times: according to the word of the man of God, and his flesh was restored, like the flesh of a little child, and he was made clean.\n15 And returning to the man of God with all his train, be came, and stood before him, and said: In truth, I know there is no other God in all the earth, but only in Israel: I beseech thee therefore take a blessing of thy servant.\n16 But he answered: As the Lord liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And when he pressed him, he still refused.\n17 And Naaman said: As thou wilt: but I beseech thee, grant to me thy servant, to take from hence two mules' burden of earth: for thy servant will not henceforth offer holocaust, or victim, to other gods, but to the Lord.\n18 But there is only this, for which thou shalt entreat the Lord for thy servant, when my master goeth into the temple of Remmon, to worship: and he leaneth upon my hand, if I bow down in the temple of Remmon, when he boweth down in the same place, that the Lord pardon me thy servant for this thing.\n19 And he said to him: Go in peace.

were with him, by the protection of the Lord, recovered the temple and the city again.\n2 But he threw down the altars, which the heathens had set up in the streets, as also the temples of the idols.\n3 And having purified the temple, they made another altar: and taking fire out of the fiery stones, they offered sacrifices after two years, and set forth incense, and lamps, and the loaves of proposition.\n4 And when they had done these things, they besought the Lord, lying prostrate on the ground, that they might no more fall into such evils; but if they should at any time sin, that they might be chastised by him more gently, and not be delivered up to barbarians and blasphemous men.\n5 Now upon the same day that the temple had been polluted by the strangers, on the very same day it was cleansed again, to wit, on the five and twentieth day of the month of Casleu.\n6 And they kept eight days with joy, after the manner of the feast of the tabernacles, remembering that not long before they had kept the feast of the tabernacles when they were in the mountains, and in dens like wild beasts.\n7 Therefore they now, carried boughs, and green branches, and palms for Him that had given them good success in cleansing his place.\n8 And they ordained by a common statute, and decree, that all the nation of the Jews should keep those days every year.\n9 And this was the end of Antiochus that was called the Illustrious.\n10 But now we will relate the acts of Eupator the son of that wicked Antiochus, abridging the account of the evils that happened in the wars.\n11 For when he was come to the crown, he appointed over the affairs of his realm one Lysias, general of the army of Phenicia and Syria.\n12 For Ptolemee that was called Macer, was determined to be strictly just to the Jews, and especially by reason of the wrong that had been done them, and to deal peaceably with them.\n13 But being accused for this to Eupator by his friends, and being oftentimes called traitor, because he had left Cyprus which Philometor had committed to him, and coming over to Antiochus the Illustrious, had revolted also from him, he put an end to his life by poison.\n14 But Gorgias, who was governor of the holds, taking with him the strangers, often fought against the Jews.\n15 And the Jews that occupied the most commodious hold, received those that were driven out of Jerusalem, and attempted to make war.\n16 Then they that were with Machabeus, beseeching the Lord by prayers to be their helper, made a strong attack upon the strong holds of the Idumeans:\n17 And assaulting them with great force, won the holds, killed them that came in the way, and slew altogether no fewer than twenty thousand.\n18 And whereas some were fled into very strong towers, having all manner of provision to sustain a siege,\n19 Machabeus left Simon and Joseph, and Zacheus, and them that were with them in sufficient number to besiege them, and departed to those expeditions which urged more.\n20 Now they that were with Simon, being led with covetousness, were persuaded for the sake of money by some that were in the towers: and taking seventy thousand didrachmas, let some of them escape.\n21 But when it was told Machabeus what was done, he assembled the rulers of the people, and accused those men that they had sold their brethren for money, having let their adversaries escape.\n22 So he put these traitors to death, and forthwith took the two towers.\n23 And having good success in arms and in all things he took in hand, he slew more than twenty thousand in the two holds.\n24 But Timotheus who before had been overcome by the Jews, having called together a multitude of foreign troops, and assembled horsemen out of Asia, came as though he would take Judea by force of arms.\n25 But Machabeus and they that were with him, when he drew near, prayed to the Lord, sprinkling earth upon their heads and girding their loins with haircloth,\n26 And lying prostrate at the foot of the altar, besought him to be merciful to them, and to be an enemy to their enemies, and an adversary to their adversaries, as the law saith.\n27 And so after prayer taking their arms, they went forth further from the city, and when they were come very near the enemies they rested.\n28 But as soon as the sun was risen both sides joined battle: the one part having with their valour the Lord for a surety of victory and success: but the other side making their rage their leader in battle.\n29 But when they were in the heat of the engagement there appeared to the enemies from heaven five men upon horses, comely with golden bridles, conducting the Jews:\n30 Two of whom took Machabeus between them, and covered him on every side with their arms, and kept him safe: but cast darts and fireballs against the enemy, so that they fell down, being both confounded with blindness, and filled with trouble.\n31 And there were slain twenty thousand five hundred, and six hundred horsemen.\n32

within, trusting to the strength of the place, blasphemed exceedingly, and cast forth abominable words.\n35 But when the fifth day appeared, twenty young men of them that were with Machabeus, inflamed

And the wrath of the Lord was exceedingly enkindled: to Moses also the thing seemed insupportable.\n11 And he said to the Lord: Why hast thou afflicted thy servant? wherefore do I not find favour before thee? and why hast thou laid the weight of all this people upon me?\n12 Have I conceived all this multitude, or begotten them, that thou shouldst say to me: Carry them in thy bosom as the nurse is wont to carry the little infant, and bear them into the land, for which thou hast sworn to their fathers?\n13 Whence should I have flesh to give to so great a multitude? they weep against me, saying: Give us flesh that we may eat.\n14 I am not able alone to bear all this people, because it is too heavy for me.\n15 But if it seem unto thee otherwise, I beseech thee to kill me, and let me find grace in thy eyes, that I be not afflicted with so great evils.\n16 And the Lord said to Moses: Gather unto me seventy men of the ancients of Israel, whom thou knowest to be ancients and masters of the people: and thou shalt bring them to the door of the tabernacle of the covenant, and shalt make them stand there with thee,\n17 That I may come down and speak with thee: and I will take of thy spirit, and will give to them, that they may bear with thee the burden of the people, and thou mayest not be burthened alone.\n18 And thou shalt say to the people: Be ye sanctified: to morrow you shall eat flesh: for I have heard you say: Who will give us flesh to eat? it was well with us in Egypt. That the Lord may give you flesh, and you may eat:\n19 Not for one day, nor two, nor five, nor ten, no nor for twenty.\n20 But even for a month of days, till it come out at your nostrils, and become loathsome to you, because you have cast off the Lord, who is in the midst of you, and have wept before him, saying: Why came we out of Egypt?\n21 And Moses said: There are six hundred thousand footmen of this people, and sayest thou: I will give them flesh to eat a whole month?\n22 Shall then a multitude of sheep and oxen be killed, that it may suffice for their food? or shall the fishes of the sea be gathered together to fill them?\n23 And the Lord answered him: Is the hand of the Lord unable?

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.

Last of all the woman also died.\n23 In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise again, whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.\n24 And Jesus answering, saith to them: Do ye not therefore err, because you know not the scriptures, nor the power of God?\n25 For when they shall rise again from the dead, they shall neither marry, nor be married, but are as the angels in heaven.\n26 And as concerning the dead that they rise again, have you not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spoke to him, saying: I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?\n27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You therefore do greatly err.\n28 And there came one of the scribes that had heard them reasoning together, and seeing that he had answered them well, asked him which was the first commandment of all.\n29 And Jesus answered him: The first commandment of all is, Hear, O Israel: the Lord thy God is one God.\n30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God, with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind, and with thy whole strength. This is the first commandment.\n31 And the second is like to it: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

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.\n28 And Absalom had commanded his servants, saying: Take notice when Amnon shall be drunk with wine, and when I shall say to you: Strike him, and kill him, fear not: for it is I that command you: take courage, and be valiant men.\n29 And the servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded them. And all the king's sons arose and got up every man upon his mule, and fled.\n30 And while they were yet in the way, a rumour came to David, saying: Absalom hath slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.\n31 Then the king rose up, and rent his garments: and fell upon the ground, and all his servants, that stood about him, rent their garments.\n32 But Jonadab the son of Semmaa David's brother answering, said: Let not my lord the king think that all the king's sons are slain: Amnon only is dead, for he was appointed by the mouth of Absalom from the day that he ravished his sister Thamar.\n33 Now therefore let not my lord the king take this thing into his heart, saying: All the king's sons are slain: for Amnon only is dead.\n34 But Absalom fled away: and the young man that kept the watch, lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold there came much people by a by-way on the side of the mountain.\n35 And Jonadab said to the king: Behold the king's sons are come: as thy servant said, so it is.\n36 And when he made an end of speaking, the king's sons also appeared: and coming in they lifted up their voice, and wept: and the king also and all his servants wept very much.\n37 But Absalom fled, and went to Tholomai the son of Ammiud the king of Gessur.

And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: Inquire, I beseech thee, this day, the word of the Lord.\n6 Then the king of Israel assembled the prophets, about four hundred men, and he said to them: Shall I go to Ramoth Galaad to fight, or shall I forbear? They answered: Go up, and the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king.\n7 And Josaphat said: Is there not here some prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire by him?\n8 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: There is one man left, by whom we may inquire of the Lord: Micheas the son of Jemla; but I hate him, for he doth not prophesy good to me, but evil. And Josaphat said: Speak not so, O king.\n9 Then the king of Israel called an eunuch, and said to him: Make haste, and bring hither Micheas the son of Jemla.\n10 Then the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda, sat each on his throne clothed with royal robes, in a court by the entrance of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets prophesied before them.\n11 And Sedecias the son of Chanaana made himself horns of iron, and said: Thus saith the Lord: With these shalt thou push Syria, till thou destroy it.\n12 And all the prophets prophesied in like manner, saying: Go up to Ramoth Galaad, and prosper, for the Lord will deliver it into the king's hands.\n13 And the messenger, that went to call Micheas, spoke to him, saying: Behold the words of the prophets with one mouth declare good things to the king: let thy word therefore be like to theirs, and speak that which is good.\n14 But Micheas said to him: As the Lord liveth, whatsoever the Lord shall say to me, that will I speak.\n15 So he came to the king, and the king said to him: Micheas, shall we go to Ramoth Galaad to battle, or shall we forbear? He answered him: Go up, and prosper, and the Lord shall deliver it into the king's hands.\n16 But the king said to him: I adjure thee again and again, that thou tell me nothing but that which is true in the name of the Lord.\n17 And he said: I saw all Israel scattered upon the hills, like sheep that have no shepherd: and the Lord said: These have no master: let every man of them return to his house in peace.\n18 (Then the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Did I not tell thee, that he prophesieth no good to me, but always evil?)\n19 And he added and said: Hear thou therefore the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on the right hand and on the left:\n20 And the Lord said: Who shall deceive Achab king of Israel, that he may go up, and fall at Ramoth Galaad? And one spoke words of this manner, and another otherwise.\n21 And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said: I will deceive him. And the Lord said to him: By what means?\n22 And he said: I will go forth, and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And the Lord said: Thou shalt deceive him, and shalt prevail: a go forth, and do so.\n23 Now therefore behold the Lord hath given a lying spirit in the mouth of all thy prophets that are here, and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee.\n24 And Sedecias the son of Chanaana came, and struck Micheas on the cheek, and said: Hath then the spirit of the Lord left me, and spoken to thee?\n25 And Micheas said: Thou shalt see in the day when thou shalt go into a chamber within a chamber to hide thyself.\n26 And the king of Israel said: Take Micheas, and let him abide with Ammon the governor of the city, and with Joas the son of Amalech.\n27 And tell them: Thus saith the king: Put this man in prison, and feed him with bread of affliction, and water of distress, till I return in peace.\n28 And Micheas said: If thou return in peace, the Lord hath not spoken by me. 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": "Can you read 1 Samuel chapter 31, verse 12?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From 1 Samuel chapter 31, verse 12, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"All the most valiant men arose, and walked all the night, and took the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, from the wall of Bethsan: and they came to Jabes Galaad, and burnt them there:\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which chapter and book contains \"And the king said to Sadoc: Carry back the ark of God into the city: if I shall find grace in the sight of the Lord, he will bring me again, and he will shew me it, and his tabernacle.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It's from the book of 2 Samuel, chapter 15.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n2 Samuel Chapter 15\n1 Now after these things Absalom made himself chariots, and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.\n2 And Absalom rising up early stood by the entrance of the gate, and when any man had business to come to the king's judgment, Absalom called him to him, and said: Of what city art thou?

His servants and ministers said to him: He hath received no reward at all.\n4 And the king said immediately: Who is in the court? for Aman was coming in to the inner court of the king's house, to speak to the king, that he might order Mardochai to be hanged upon the gibbet which was prepared for him.\n5 The servants answered: Aman standeth in the court, and the king said: Let him come in.\n6 And when he was come in, he said to him: What ought to be done to the man whom the king is desirous to honour? But Aman thinking in his heart, and supposing that the king would honour no other but himself,\n7 Answered: The man whom the king desireth to honour,\n8 Ought to be clothed with the king's apparel, and to be set upon the horse that the king rideth upon, and to have the royal crown upon his head,\n9 And let the first of the king's princes and nobles hold his horse, and going through the street of the city, proclaim before him and say: Thus shall he be honoured, whom the king hath a mind to honour.\n10 And the king said to him: Make haste and take the robe and the horse, and do as thou hast spoken to Mardochai the Jew, who sitteth before the gates of the palace.

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.

pass, when the nations round about heard that the altar and the sanctuary were built up as before, that they were exceeding angry.\n2 And they thought to destroy the generation of Jacob that were among them, and they began to kill some of the people, and to persecute them.\n3 Then Judas fought against the children of Esau in Idumea, and them that were in Acrabathane: because they beset the Israelites around about, and he made a great slaughter of them.\n4 And he remembered the malice of the children of Bean: who were a snare and a stumblingblock to the people, by lying in wait for them in the way.\n5 And they were shut up by him in towers, and he set upon them, and devoted them to utter destruction, and burnt their towers with fire, and all that were in them.\n6 Then he passed over to the children of Ammon, where he found a mighty power, and much people, and Timotheus was their captain:\n7 And he fought many battles with them, and they were discomfited in their sight, and he smote them:\n8 And he took the city of Gazer and her towns, and returned into Judea.\n9 And the Gentiles that were in Galaad, assembled themselves together against the Israelites that were in their quarters to destroy them: and they fled into the fortress of Datheman.\n10 And they sent letters to Judas and his brethren, saying, The heathens that are round about are gathered together against us, to destroy us:\n11 And they are preparing to come, and to take the fortress into which we are fled: and Timotheus is the captain of their host.\n12 Now therefore come, and deliver us out of their hands, for many of us are slain.\n13 And all our brethren that were in the places of Tubin, are killed: and they have carried away their wives, and their children, captives, and taken their spoils, and they have slain there almost a thousand men.\n14 And while they were yet reading these letters, behold there came other messengers out of Galilee with their garments rent, who related according to these words:\n15 Saying, that they of Ptolemais, and of Tyre, and of Sidon, were assembled against them, and all Galilee is filled with strangers, in order to consume us.\n16 Now when Judas and all the people heard these words, a great assembly met together to consider what they should do for their brethren that were in trouble, and were assaulted by them.\n17 And Judas said to Simon his brother: Choose thee men, and go, and deliver thy brethren in Galilee: and I, and my brother Jonathan will go into the country of Galaad.\n18 And he left Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias captains of the people with the remnant of the army in Judea to keep it:\n19 And he commanded them, saying: Take ye the charge of this people: but make no war against the heathens, till we return.\n20 Now three thousand men were allotted to Simon, to go into Galilee: and eight thousand to Judas to go into the land of Galaad.\n21 And Simon went into Galilee, and fought many battles with the heathens: and the heathens were discomfited before his face, and he pursued them even to the gate of Ptolemais.\n22 And there fell of the heathens almost three thousand men, and he took the spoils of them,\n23 And he took with him those that were in Galilee and in Arbatis with their wives, and children, and all that they had, and he brought them into Judea with great joy.\n24 And Judas Machabeus, and Jonathan his brother passed over the Jordan, and went three days' journey through the desert.\n25 And the Nabutheans met them, and received them in a peaceable manner, and told them all that happened to their brethren in the land of Galaad,\n26 And that many of them were shut up in Barasa, and in Bosor, and in Alima, and in Casphor, and in Mageth, and in Carnaim: all these strong and great cities.\n27 Yea, and that they were kept shut up in the rest of the cities of Galaad, and that they had appointed to bring their army on the morrow near to these cities, and to take them and to destroy them all in one day.\n28 Then Judas and his army suddenly turned their march into the desert, to Bosor, and took the city: and he slew every male by the edge of the sword, and took all their spoils, and burnt it with fire.\n29 And they removed from thence by night, and went till they came to the fortress.\n30 And it came to pass that early in the morning, when they lifted up their eyes, behold there were people without number, carrying ladders and engines to take the fortress, and assault them.\n31 And Judas saw that the fight was begun, and the cry of the battle went up to heaven like a trumpet, and a great cry out of the city:\n32 And he said to his host: Fight ye to day for your brethren.\n33 And he came with three companies behind them, and they sounded their trumpets, and cried out in prayer.\n34 And the host of Timotheus understood that it was Machabeus, and they fled away before his face: and they made a great slaughter of them: and there fell of them in that day almost eight thousand men.\n35 And Judas turned aside to Maspha, and assaulted, and took it, and he slew every male thereof, and took the spoils thereof, and burnt it with fire.\n36 From thence he marched, and took Casbon, and Mageth, and Bosor, and the rest of the cities of Galaad.\n37 But after this Timotheus gathered another army, and camped over against Raphon beyond the torrent.\n38 And Judas sent men to view the army: and they brought him word, saying: All the nations, that are round about us, are assembled unto him an army exceeding great:\n39 And they have hired the Arabians to help them, and they have pitched their tents beyond the torrent, ready to come to fight against thee. And Judas went to meet them.\n40 And Timotheus said to the captains of his army: When Judas and his army come near the torrent of water, if he pass over unto us first, we shall not be able to withstand him: for he will certainly prevail over us.\n41 But if he be afraid to pass over, and camp on the other side of the river, we will pass over to them and shall prevail against him.\n42 Now when Judas came near the torrent of water, he set the scribes of the people by the torrent, and commanded them, saying: Suffer no man to stay behind: but let all come to the battle.\n43 And he passed over to them first, and all the people after him, and all the heathens were discomfited before them, and they threw away their weapons, and fled to the temple that was in Carnaim.\n44 And he took that city, and the temple he burnt with fire, with all things that were therein: and Carnaim was subdued, and could not stand against the face of Judas.\n45 And Judas gathered together all the Israelites that were in the land of Galaad, from the least even to the greatest, and their wives, and children, and an army exceeding great, to come into the land of Juda.\n46 And they came as far as Ephron: now this was a great city situate in the way, strongly fortified, and there was no means to turn from it on the right hand or on the left, but the way was through the midst of it.\n47 And they that were in the city, shut themselves in, and stopped up the gates with stones: and Judas sent to them with peaceable words,\n48 Saying: Let us pass through your land, to go into our country: and no man shall hurt you: we will only pass through on foot. But they would not open to them.\n49 Then Judas commanded proclamation to be made in the camp, that they should make an assault every man in the place where he was.\n50 And the men of the army drew near, and he assaulted that city all the day, and all the night, and the city was delivered into his hands:\n51 And they slew every male with the edge of the sword, and he razed the city, and took the spoils thereof, and passed through all the city over them that were slain.\n52 Then they passed over the Jordan to the great plain that is over against Bethsan.\n53 And Judas gathered together the hindmost, and he exhorted the people all the way through, till they came into the land of Juda.\n54 And they went up to mount Sion with joy and gladness, and offered holocausts, because not one of them was slain, till they had returned in peace.\n55 Now in the days that Judas and Jonathan were in the land of Galaad, and Simon his brother in Galilee before Ptolemais,\n56 Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias captain of the soldiers, heard of the good success, and the battles that were fought.\n57 And he said: Let us also get us a name, and let us go fight against the Gentiles that are round about us.\n58 And he gave charge to them that were in his army, and they went towards Jamnia.\n59 And Gorgias and his men went out of the city, to give them battle.\n60 And Joseph and Azarias were put to flight, and were pursued unto the borders of Judea: and there fell, on that day, of the people of Israel about two thousand men, and there was a great overthrow of the people:\n61 Because they did not hearken to Judas, and his brethren, thinking that they should do manfully.\n62 But they were not of the seed of those men by whom salvation was brought to Israel.\n63 And the men of Juda were magnified exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and of all the nations where their name was heard.\n64 And people assembled to them with joyful acclamations.\n65 Then Judas and his brethren went forth and attacked the children of Esau, in the land toward the south, and he took Chebron, and her towns: and he burnt the walls thereof and the towers all round it.\n66 And he removed his camp to go into the land of the aliens, and he went through Samaria.\n67 In that day some priests fell in battle, while desiring to do manfully they went out unadvisedly to fight.\n68 And Judas turned to Azotus into the land of the strangers, and he threw down their altars, and he burnt the statues of their gods with fire: and he took the spoils of the cities, and returned into the land of Juda.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "From which book and what chapter does \"A faithful saying: for if we be dead with him, we shall live also with him.\" come?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you mentioned is found in 2 Timothy, chapter 2.\n\nHere's the entire chapter for you:\n2 Timothy Chapter 2\n1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace which is in Christ Jesus:\n2 And the things which thou hast heard of me by many witnesses, the same commend to faithful men, who shall be fit to teach others also.\n3 Labour as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.\n4 No man, being a soldier to God, entangleth himself with secular businesses; that he may please him to whom he hath engaged himself.\n5 For he also that striveth for the mastery, is not crowned, except he strive lawfully.\n6 The husbandman, that laboureth, must first partake of the fruits.\n7 Understand what I say: for the Lord will give thee in all things understanding.\n8 Be mindful that the Lord Jesus Christ is risen again from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my gospel.\n9 Wherein I labour even unto bands, as an evildoer; but the word of God is not bound.\n10 Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation, which is in Christ Jesus, with heavenly glory.\n11 A faithful saying: for if we be dead with him, we shall live also with him.\n12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him.

exalted thee out of the dust, and made thee prince over my people Israel, and thou hast walked in the way of Jeroboam, and hast made my people Israel to sin, to provoke me to anger with their sins:\n3 Behold, I will cut down the posterity of Baasa, and the posterity of his house, and I will make thy house as the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat.\n4 Him that dieth of Baasa in the city, the dogs shall eat: and him that dieth of his in the country, the fowls of the air shall devour.\n5 But the rest of the acts of Baasa and all that he did, and his battles, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?\n6 So Baasa slept with his fathers, and was buried in Thersa: and Ela his son reigned in his stead.\n7 And when the word of the Lord came in the hand of Jehu the son of Hanani the prophet, against Baasa, and against his house, and against all the evil that he had done before the Lord, to provoke him to anger by the works of his hands, to become as the house of Jeroboam: for this cause he slew him, that is to say, Jehu the son of Hanani, the prophet.\n8 In the six and twentieth year of Asa king of Juda, Ela the son of Baasa reigned over Israel in Thersa two years.\n9 And his servant Zambri, who was captain of half the horsemen, rebelled against him: now Ela was drinking in Thersa, and drunk in the house of Arsa the governor of Thersa.\n10 And Zambri rushing in, struck him and slew him in the seven and twentieth year of Asa king of Juda, and he reigned in his stead.\n11 And when he was king and sat upon his throne, he slew all the house of Baasa, and he left not one thereof to piss against a wall, and all his kinsfolks and friends.\n12 And Zambri destroyed all the house of Baasa, according to the word of the Lord, that he had spoken to

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

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

came messengers, and told Josaphat, saying: There cometh a great multitude against thee from beyond the sea, and out of Syria, and behold they are in Asasonthamar, which is Engaddi.\n3 And Josaphat being seized with fear betook himself wholly to pray to the Lord, and he proclaimed a fast for all Juda.\n4 And Juda gathered themselves together to pray to the Lord: and all came out of their cities to make supplication to him.\n5 And Josaphat stood in the midst of the assembly of Juda, and Jerusalem, in the house of the Lord before the new court,\n6 And said: O Lord God of our fathers, thou art God in heaven, and rulest over all the kingdoms and nations, in thy hand is strength and power, and no one can resist thee.\n7 Didst not thou our God kill all the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and gavest it to the seed of Abraham thy friend for ever?\n8 And they dwelt in it, and built in it a sanctuary to thy name, saying:\n9 If evils fall upon us, the sword of judgment, or pestilence, or famine, we will stand in thy presence before this house, in which thy name is called upon: and we will cry to thee in our afflictions, and thou wilt hear, and save us.\n10 Now therefore behold the children of Ammon, and of Moab, and mount Seir, through whose lands thou didst not allow Israel to pass, when they came out of Egypt, but they turned aside from them, and slew them not,\n11 Do the contrary, and endeavour to cast us out of the possession which thou hast delivered to us.\n12 O our God, wilt thou not then judge them? as for us we have not strength enough, to be able to resist this multitude, which cometh violently upon us.

Zacharias, the son of Banaias, the son of Jehiel, the son of Mathanias, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, was there, upon whom the spirit of the Lord came in the midst of the multitude,\n15 And he said:

God's.\n16 To morrow you shall go down against them: for they will come up by the ascent named Sis, and you shall find them at the head of the torrent, which is over against the wilderness of Jeruel.\n17 It shall not be you that shall fight, but only stand with confidence, and you shall see the help of the Lord over you, O Juda, and Jerusalem: fear ye not, nor be you dismayed: to morrow you shall go out against them, and the Lord will be with you.\n18 Then Josaphat, and Juda, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell hat on the ground before the Lord, and adored him.\n19 And the Levites of the sons of Caath, and of the sons of Core praised the Lord the God of Israel with a loud voice, on high.\n20 And they rose early in the morning, and went out through the desert of Thecua: and as they were marching, Josaphat standing in the midst of them, said: Hear me, ye men of Juda, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: believe in the Lord your God, and you shall be secure: believe his prophets, and all things shall succeed well.\n21 And he gave counsel to the people, and appointed the singing men of the Lord, to praise him by their companies, and to go before the army, and with

of Ammon, and of Moab, and of mount Seir, who were come out to fight against Juda, and they were slain.\n23 For the children of Ammon, and of Moab, rose up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, to kill and destroy them: and when they had made an end of them, they turned also against one another, and destroyed one another.\n24 And when Juda came to the watch tower, that looketh toward the desert, they saw afar off all the country, for a great space, full of dead bodies, and that no one was left that could escape death.\n25 Then Josaphat came, and all the people with him to take away the spoils of the dead, and they found among the dead bodies, stuff of various kinds, and garments, and most precious vessels: and they took them for themselves, insomuch that they could not carry all, nor in three days take away the spoils, the booty was so great.\n26 And on the fourth day they were assembled in the valley of Blessing: for there they blessed the Lord, and therefore they called that place the valley of Blessing until this day.\n27 And every man of Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem returned, and Josaphat at their head, into Jerusalem with great joy, because the Lord had

embroidered work, according to the work of the ephod, of gold, violet, purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine twisted linen,\n9 Foursquare, double, of the measure of a span.\n10 And he set four rows

And she answered her: Go, my daughter.\n3 She went therefore and gleaned the ears of corn after the reapers. And it happened that the owner of that field was Booz, who was of the kindred of Elimelech.\n4 And behold, he came out of Bethlehem, and said to the reapers: The Lord be with you. And they answered him: The Lord bless thee.\n5 And Booz said to the young man that was set over the reapers: Whose maid is this?\n6 And he answered him: This is the Moabitess who came with Noemi, from the land of Moab,\n7 And she desired leave to glean the ears of corn that remain, following the steps of the reapers: and she hath been in the field from morning till now, and hath not gone home for one moment.\n8 And Booz said to Ruth: Hear me, daughter, do not go to glean in any other field, and do not depart from this place: but keep with my maids,\n9 And follow where they reap. For I have charged my young men, not to molest thee: and if thou art thirsty, go to the vessels, and drink of the waters whereof the servants drink.\n10 She fell on her face and worshipping upon the ground, said to him: Whence cometh this to me, that I should find grace before thy eyes, and that thou shouldst vouchsafe to take notice of me a woman of another country?\n11 And he answered her: All hath been told me, that thou hast done to thy mother in law after the death of thy husband: and how thou hast left thy parents, and the land wherein thou wast born, and art come to a people which thou knewest not heretofore.\n12 The Lord render unto thee for thy work, and mayest thou receive a full reward of the Lord the God of Israel, to whom thou art come, and under whose wings thou art fled.\n13 And she said: I have found grace in thy eyes, my lord, who hast comforted me and hast spoken to the heart of thy handmaid, who am not like to one of thy maids.\n14 And Booz said to her: At mealtime come thou hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. So she sat at the side of the reapers, and she heaped to herself frumenty, and ate and was filled, and took the leavings.\n15 And she arose from thence, to glean the ears of corn as before.

That every man should let his manservant, and every man his maidservant, being a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman, go free: and that they should not lord it over them, to wit, over the Jews their

dominion over them: and they obeyed, and let them go free.\n11 But afterwards they turned: and brought back again their servants and their handmaids, whom they had let go free, and brought them into subjection as menservants and maidservants.\n12 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias from the Lord, saying:\n13 Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying:\n14 At the end of seven years, let ye go every man his brother being a Hebrew, who hath been sold to thee, so he shall serve thee six years: and thou shalt let him go free from thee: and your fathers did not hearken to me, nor did they incline their ear.\n15 And you turned to day, and did that which was right in my eyes, in proclaiming liberty every one to his brother: and you made a covenant in my sight, in the house upon which my name is invocated.\n16 And you are fallen back, and have defiled my name: and

But if her husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.\n3 Therefore, whilst her husband liveth, she shall be called an adulteress, if she be with another man: but if her husband be dead, she is delivered from the law of her husband; so that she is not an adulteress, if she be with another man.\n4 Therefore, my brethren, you also are become dead to the law, by the body of Christ; that you may belong to another, who is risen again from the dead, that we may bring forth fruit to God.\n5 For when we were in the flesh, the passions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members, to bring forth fruit unto death.\n6 But now we are loosed from the law of death, wherein we were detained; so that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.\n7 What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? God forbid. But I do not know sin, but by the law; for I had not known concupiscence, if the law did not say: Thou shalt not covet.\n8 But sin taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.\n9 And I lived some time without the law. But when the commandment came, sin revived,\n10 And I died. And the commandment that was ordained to life, the same was found to be unto death to me.\n11 For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, seduced me, and by it killed me.\n12 Wherefore the law indeed is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.\n13 Was that then which is good, made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it may appear sin, by that which is good, wrought death in me; that sin, by the commandment, might become sinful above measure.\n14 For we know that the law is spiritual; but I am carnal, sold under sin.\n15 For that which I work, I understand not. For I do not that good which I will; but the evil which I hate, that I do.\n16 If then I do that which I will not, I consent to the law, that it is good.\n17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.\n18 For I know that there dwelleth not in me, that is to say, in my flesh, that which is good. For to will, is present with me; but to accomplish that which is good, I find not.\n19 For the good which I will, I do not; but the evil which I will not, that I do.\n20 Now if I do that which I will not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.\n21 I find then a law, that when I have a will to do good, evil is present with me.\n22 For I am delighted with the law of God, according to the inward man:\n23 But I see another law in my members, fighting against the law of my mind, and captivating me in the law of sin, that is in my members.\n24 Unhappy man that I am, who shall deliver me from the body of this death?\n25 The grace of God, by Jesus Christ our Lord.

And there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.\n15 And he sent an angel to Jerusalem, to strike it: and as he was striking it, the Lord beheld, and took pity for the greatness of the evil: and said to the angel that destroyed: It is enough, now stop thy hand. And the angel of the Lord stood by the thrashingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.\n16 And David lifting up his eyes, saw the angel of the Lord standing between heaven and earth, with a drawn sword in his hand, turned against Jerusalem: and both he and the ancients clothed in haircloth, fell down flat on the ground.\n17 And David said to God: Am not I he that commanded the people to be numbered? It is I that have sinned: it is I that have done the evil: but as for this flock, what hath it deserved? O Lord my God, let thy hand be turned, I beseech thee, upon me, and upon my father's house: and let not thy people be destroyed.\n18 And the angel of the Lord commanded Gad to tell David, to go up, and build an altar to the Lord God in the thrashingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.\n19 And David went up, according to the word of Gad, which he spoke to him in the name of the Lord.\n20 Now when Ornan looked up, and saw the angel, he and his four sons hid themselves: for at that time he was thrashing wheat in the floor.\n21 And as David was coming to Ornan, Ornan saw him, and went out of the thrashingfloor to meet him, and bowed down to him with his face to the ground.\n22 And David said to him: Give me this place of thy thrashingfloor, that I may build therein an altar to the Lord: but thou shalt take of me as much money as it is worth, that the plague may cease from the people.\n23 And Ornan said to David: Take it, and let my lord the king do all that pleaseth him: and moreover the oxen also I give for a holocaust, and the drays for wood, and the wheat for the sacrifice: I will give it all willingly.\n24 And king David said to him: It shall not be so, but I will give thee money as much as it is worth: for I must not take it from thee, and so offer to the Lord holocausts free cost.\n25 So David gave to Ornan for the place, six hundred sicles of gold of just weight.\n26 And he built there an altar to the Lord: and he offered holocausts, and peace offerings, and he called upon the Lord, and he heard him by sending fire from heaven upon the altar of the holocaust.\n27 And the Lord commanded the angel: and he put up his sword again into the sheath.\n28 And David seeing that the Lord had heard him in the thrashingfloor of Oman the Jebusite, forthwith offered victims there.\n29 But the tabernacle of the Lord, which Moses made in the desert, and the altar of holocausts, was at that time in the high place of Gabaon.\n30 And David could not go to the altar there to

Jesus saith to them: I am he. And Judas also, who betrayed him, stood with them.\n6 As soon therefore as he had said to them: I am he; they went backward, and fell to the ground.\n7 Again therefore he asked them: Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.\n8 Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he.

The chalice which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?\n12 Then the band and the tribune, and the servants of the Jews, took Jesus, and bound him:\n13 And they led him away to Annas first, for he was father in law to Caiphas, who was the high priest of that year.\n14 Now Caiphas was he who had given the counsel to the Jews: That it was expedient that one man should die for the people.\n15 And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. And that disciple was known to the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the court of the high priest.\n16 But Peter stood at the door without.

He saith: I am not.\n18 Now the servants and ministers stood at a fire of coals, because it was cold, and warmed themselves. And with them was Peter also, standing, and warming himself.\n19 The high priest therefore asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.\n20 Jesus answered him: I have spoken openly to the world: I have always taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither all the Jews resort; and in secret I have spoken nothing.\n21 Why asketh thou me? ask them who have heard what I have spoken unto them: behold they know what things I have said.\n22 And when he had said these things, one of the servants standing by, gave Jesus a blow, saying: Answerest thou the high priest so?\n23 Jesus answered him: If I have spoken evil, give testimony of the evil; but if well, why strikest thou me?\n24 And Annas sent him bound to Caiphas the high priest.\n25 And Simon Peter was standing, and warming himself. They said therefore to him: Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said: I am not.\n26 One of the servants of the high priest (a kinsman to him whose ear Peter cut off) saith to him: Did I not see thee in the garden with him?\n27 Again therefore Peter denied; and immediately the cock crew.\n28 Then they led Jesus from Caiphas to the governor's hall. And it was morning; and they went not into the hall, that they might not be defiled, but that they might eat the pasch.\n29 Pilate therefore went out to them, and said: What accusation bring you against this man?\n30 They answered, and said to him: If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up to thee.\n31 Pilate therefore said to them: Take him you, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him: It is not lawful for us to put any man to death;\n32 That the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he said, signifying what death he should die.\n33 Pilate therefore went into the hall again, and called Jesus, and said to him: Art thou the king of the Jews?\n34 Jesus answered: Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or have others told it thee of me?\n35 Pilate answered: Am I a Jew? Thy own nation, and the chief priests, have delivered thee up to me: what hast thou done?\n36 Jesus answered: My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would certainly strive that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now my kingdom is not from hence.\n37 Pilate therefore said to him: Art thou a king then? Jesus answered: Thou sayest that I am a king. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world; that I should give testimony to the truth.

And he answered and said to him: Arise, and go to Ceila: for I will deliver the Philistines into thy hand.\n5 David therefore, and his men, went to Ceila, and fought against the Philistines, and brought away their cattle, and made a great slaughter of them: and David saved the inhabitants of Ceila.\n6 Now at that time, when Abiathar the son of Achimelech fled to David to Ceila, he came down having an ephod with him.\n7 And it was told Saul that David was come to Ceila: and Saul said: The Lord hath delivered him into my hands, and he is shut up, being come into a city, that hath gates and bars.\n8 And Saul commanded all the people to go down to fight against Ceila, and to besiege David, and his men.\n9 Now when David understood, that Saul secretly prepared evil against him, he said to Abiathar the priest: Bring hither the ephod.\n10 And David said: O Lord God of Israel, thy servant hath heard a report, that Saul designeth to come to Ceila, to destroy the city for my sake:\n11 Will the men of Ceila deliver me into his hands? and will Saul come down, as thy servant hath heard?

For thy God helpeth thee. So David received them, and made them captains of the band.\n19 And there were some of Manasses that went over to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to fight: but he did not fight with them: because the lords of the Philistines taking counsel sent him back, saying: With the danger of our heads he will return to his master Saul.\n20 So when he went back to Siceleg, there fled to him of Manasses, Ednas and Jozabad, and Jedihel, and Michael, and Ednas, and Jozabad, and Eliu, and Salathi, captains of thousands in Manasses.\n21 These helped David against the rovers: for they were all most valiant men, and were made commanders in the army.\n22 Moreover day by day there came some to David to help him till they became a great number, like the army of God.\n23 And this is the number of the chiefs of the army who came to David, when he was in Hebron, to transfer to him the kingdom of Saul, according to the word of the Lord.\n24 The sons of Juda bearing shield and spear, six thousand eight hundred well appointed to war.\n25 Of the sons of Simeon valiant men for war, seven thousand one hundred.\n26 Of the sons of Levi, four thousand six hundred.\n27 And Joiada prince of the race of Aaron, and with him three thousand seven hundred.\n28 Sadoc also a young man of excellent disposition, and the house of his father, twenty-two principal men.\n29 And of the sons of Benjamin the brethren of Saul, three thousand: for hitherto a great part of them followed the house of Saul.\n30 And of the sons of Ephraim twenty thousand eight hundred, men of great valour renowned in their kindreds.\n31 And of the half tribe of Manasses, eighteen thousand, every one by their names, came to make David king.\n32 Also of the sons of Issachar men of understanding, that knew all times to order what Israel should do, two hundred principal men: and all the rest of the tribe followed their counsel.\n33 And of Zabulon such as went forth to battle, and stood in array well appointed with armour for war, there came fifty thousand to his aid, with no double heart.\n34 And of Nephtali, a thousand leaders: and with them seven and thirty thousand, furnished with shield and spear.\n35 Of Dan also twenty-eight thousand six hundred prepared for battle.\n36 And of Aser forty thousand going forth to fight, and challenging in battle.\n37 And on the other side of the Jordan of the sons of Ruben, and of Gad, and of the half of the tribe of Manasses a hundred and twenty thousand, furnished with arms for war.\n38 All these men of war well appointed to fight, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel: and all the rest also of Israel, were of one heart to make David king.\n39 And they were there with David three days eating and drinking: for their brethren had prepared for them.\n40 Moreover they that were near them even as far as Issachar, and Zabulon, and Nephtali, brought leaves on asses, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen, to eat: meal, figs, raisins, wine, oil, and oxen, and sheep in abundance, for there was joy in Israel.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What is written in 1 Chronicles 22:10?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at 1 Chronicles 22:10 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"He shall build a house to my name, and he shall be a son to me, and I will be a father to him: and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"You are bought with a price; be not made the bondslaves of men.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book 1 Corinthians, chapter 7.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\n1 Corinthians Chapter 7\n1 Now concerning the thing whereof you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.\n2 But for fear of fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.\n3 Let the husband render the debt to his wife, and the wife also in like manner to the husband.\n4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband.

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.

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.

Here it is:\n1 Maccabees Chapter 6\n1 Now king Antiochus was going through the higher countries, and he heard that the city of Elymais in Persia was greatly renowned, and abounding in silver and gold.\n2 And that there was in it a temple, exceeding rich: and coverings of gold, and breastplates, and shields which king Alexander, son of Philip the Macedonian that reigned first in Greece, had left there.\n3 Lo, he came, and sought to take the city and to pillage it: But he was not able, because the design was known to them that were in the city.\n4 And they rose up against him in battle, and he fled away from thence, and departed with great sadness, and returned towards Babylonia.\n5 And whilst he was in Persia, there came one that told him, how the armies that were in the land of Juda were put to flight:\n6 And that Lysias went with a very great power, and was put to flight before the face of the Jews, and that they were grown strong by the armour, and power, and store of spoils, which they had gotten out of the camps which they had destroyed:\n7 And that they had thrown down the abomination which he had set up upon the altar in Jerusalem, and that they had compassed about the sanctuary with high walls as before, and Bethsura also his city.\n8 And it came to pass when the king heard these words, that he was struck with fear, and exceedingly moved: and he laid himself down upon his bed, and fell sick for grief, because it had not fallen out to him as he imagined.\n9 And he remained there many days: for great grief came more and more and more upon him, and he made account that he should die.\n10 And he called for all his friends, and said to them: Sleep is gone from my eyes, and I am fallen away, and my heart is cast down for anxiety.\n11 And I said in my heart: Into how much tribulation am I come, and into what floods of sorrow, wherein now I am: I that was pleasant and beloved in my power!\n12 But now I remember the evils that I have done in Jerusalem, from whence also I took away all the spoils of gold, and of silver that were in it, and I sent to destroy the inhabitants of Juda without cause.\n13 I know therefore that for this cause these evils have found me: and behold I perish with great grief in a strange land.\n14 Then he called Philip, one of his friends, and he made him regent over all his kingdom.\n15 And he gave him the crown, and his robe, and his ring, that he should go to Antiochus his son, and should bring him up for the kingdom.\n16 So king Antiochus died there in the year one hundred and forty-nine.\n17 And Lysias understood that the king was dead, and he set up Antiochus his son to reign, whom he brought up young: and he called his name Eupator.\n18 Now they that were in the castle, had shut up the Israelites round about the holy places: and they were continually seeking their hurt, and to strengthen the Gentiles.\n19 And Judas purposed to destroy them: and he called together all the people, to besiege them.\n20 And they came together, and besieged them in the year one hundred and fifty, and they made battering slings and engines.\n21 And some of the besieged got out: and some wicked men of Israel joined themselves unto them.\n22 And they went to the king, and said: How long dost thou delay to execute the judgment, and to revenge our brethren?\n23 We determined to serve thy father and to do according to his orders, and obey his edicts:\n24 And for this they of our nation are alienated from us, and have slain as many of us as they could find, and have spoiled our inheritances.\n25 Neither have they put forth their hand against us only, but also against all our borders.\n26 And behold they have approached this day to the castle of Jerusalem to take it, and they have fortified the stronghold of Bethsura:\n27 And unless thou speedily prevent them, they will do greater things than these, and thou shalt not be able to subdue them.\n28 Now when the king heard this, he was angry: and he called together all his friends, and the captains of his army, and them that were over the horsemen.\n29 There came also to him from other realms, and from the islands of the sea hired troops.\n30 And the number of his army was an hundred thousand footmen, and twenty thousand horsemen, and thirty-two elephants, trained to battle.\n31 And they went through Idumea, and approached to Bethsura, and fought many days, and they made engines: but they sallied forth and burnt them with fire, and fought manfully.\n32 And Judas departed from the castle, and removed the camp to Bethzacharam, over against the king's camp.\n33 And the king rose before it was light, and made his troops march on fiercely towards the way of Bethzacharam: and the armies made themselves ready for the battle, and they sounded the trumpets:\n34 And they shewed the elephants the blood of grapes, and mulberries to provoke them to fight.\n35 And they distributed the beasts by the legions: and there stood by every elephant a thousand men in coats of mail, and with helmets of brass on their heads: and five hundred horsemen set in order were chosen for every beast.\n36 These before the time wheresoever the beast was, the were there: and withersoever it went, they went, and they departed not from it.\n37 And upon the beast, there were strong wooden towers, which covered every one of them: and engines upon them: and upon every one thirty-two valiant men, who fought from above; and an Indian to rule the beast.\n38 And the rest of the horsemen he placed on this side and on that side at the two wings, with trumpets to stir up the army, and to hasten them forward that stood thick together in the legions thereof.\n39 Now when the sun shone upon the shields of gold, and of brass, the mountains glittered therewith, and they shone like lamps of fire.\n40 And part of the king's army was distinguished by the high mountains, and the other part by the low places: and they marched on warily and orderly.\n41 And all the inhabitants of the land were moved at the noise of their multitude, and the marching of the company, and the rattling of the armour, for the army was exceeding great and strong.\n42 And Judas and his army drew near for battle: and there fell of the king's army six hundred men.\n43 And Eleazar the son of Saura saw one of the beasts harnessed with the king's harness: and it was higher than the other beasts: and it seemed to him that the king was on it:\n44 And he exposed himself to deliver his people and to get himself an everlasting name.\n45 And he ran up to it boldly in the midst of the legion, killing on the right hand, and on the left, and they fell by him on this side and that side.\n46 And he went between the feet of the elephant, and put himself under it: and slew it, and it fell to the ground upon him, and he died there.\n47 Then they seeing the strength of the king and the fierceness of his army, turned away from them.\n48 But the king's army went up against them to Jerusalem: and the king's army pitched their tents against Judea and mount Sion.\n49 And he made peace with them that were in Bethsura: and they came forth out of the city, because they had no victuals, being shut up there, for it was the year of rest to the land.\n50 And the king took Bethsura: and he placed there a garrison to keep it.\n51 And he turned his army against the sanctuary for many days: and he set up there battering slings, and engines and instruments to cast fire, and engines to cast stones and javelins, and pieces to shoot arrows, and slings.\n52 And they also made engines against their engines, and they fought for many days.\n53 But there were no victuals in the city, because it was the seventh year: and such as had stayed in Judea of them that came from among the nations, had eaten the residue of all that which had been stored up.\n54 And there remained in the holy places but a few, for the famine had prevailed over them: and they were dispersed every man to his own place.\n55 Now Lysias heard that Philip, whom king Antiochus while he lived had appointed to bring up his son Antiochus, and to reign, to be king,\n56 Was returned from Persia, and Media, with the army that went with him, and that he sought to take upon him the affairs of the kingdom:\n57 Wherefore he made haste to go, and say to the king and to the captains of the army: We decay daily, and our provision of victuals is small, and the place that we lay siege to is strong, and it lieth upon us to take order for the affairs of the kingdom.\n58 Now therefore let us come to an agreement with these men, and make peace with them and with all their nation.\n59 And let us covenant with them, that they may live according to their own laws as before. For because of our despising their laws, they have been provoked, and have done all these things.\n60 And the proposal was acceptable in the sight of the king, and of the princes: and he sent to them to make peace: and they accepted of it.\n61 And the king and the princes swore to them: and they came out of the stronghold.\n62 Then the king entered into mount Sion, and saw the strength of the place: and he quickly broke the oath that he had taken, and gave commandment to throw down the wall round about.\n63 And he departed in haste, and returned to Antioch, where he found Philip master of the city: and he fought against him, and took the city.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"Who hath delivered and doth deliver us out of so great dangers: in whom we trust that he will yet also deliver us.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Bible, the verse \"Who hath delivered and doth deliver us out of so great dangers: in whom we trust that he will yet also deliver us.\" can be found in the book of 2 Corinthians, chapter 1, verse 10 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the content of 2 Thessalonians 3:7?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the New Testament at 2 Thessalonians 3:7 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"For yourselves know how you ought to imitate us: for we were not disorderly among you;\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"And being called by him, they returned, both Aaron and the rulers of the congregation.

Here it is:\nMatthew Chapter 27\n1 And when morning was come, all the chief priests and ancients of the people took counsel against Jesus, that they might put him to death.\n2 And they brought him bound, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.\n3 Then Judas, who betrayed him, seeing that he was condemned, repenting himself, brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and ancients,\n4 Saying: I have sinned in betraying innocent blood. But they said: What is that to us? look thou to it.\n5 And casting down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed: and went and hanged himself with an halter.\n6 But the chief priests having taken the pieces of silver, said: It is not lawful to put them into the corbona, because it is the price of blood.\n7 And after they had consulted together, they bought with them the potter's field, to be a burying place for strangers.\n8 For this cause the field was called Haceldama, that is, The field of blood, even to this day.\n9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremias the prophet, saying: And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was prized, whom they prized of the children of Israel.\n10 And they gave them unto the potter's field, as the Lord appointed to me.\n11 And Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, saying: Art thou the king of the Jews? Jesus saith to him: Thou sayest it.\n12 And when he was accused by the chief priests and ancients, he answered nothing.\n13 Then Pilate saith to him: Dost not thou hear how great testimonies they allege against thee?\n14 And he answered him to never a word; so that the governor wondered exceedingly.\n15 Now upon the solemn day the governor was accustomed to release to the people one prisoner, whom they would.\n16 And he had then a notorious prisoner, that was called Barabbas.\n17 They therefore being gathered together, Pilate said: Whom will you that I release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus that is called Christ?\n18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.\n19 And as he was sitting in the place of judgment, his wife sent to him, saying: Have thou nothing to do with that just man; for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.\n20 But the chief priests and ancients persuaded the people, that they should ask for Barabbas, and take Jesus away.\n21 And the governor answering, said to them: Whether will you of the two to be released unto you? But they said, Barabbas.\n22 Pilate saith to them: What shall I do then with Jesus that is called Christ? They say all: Let him be crucified.\n23 The governor said to them: Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying: Let him be crucified.\n24 And Pilate seeing that he prevailed nothing, but that rather a tumult was made; taking water washed his hands before the people, saying: I am innocent of the blood of this just man; look you to it.\n25 And the whole people answering, said: His blood be upon us and our children.\n26 Then he released to them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, delivered him unto them to be crucified.\n27 Then the soldiers of the governor taking Jesus into the hall, gathered together unto him the whole band;\n28 And stripping him, they put a scarlet cloak about him.\n29 And platting a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand. And bowing the knee before him, they mocked him, saying: Hail, king of the Jews.\n30 And spitting upon him, they took the reed, and struck his head.\n31 And after they had mocked him, they took off the cloak from him, and put on him his own garments, and led him away to crucify him.\n32 And going out, they found a man of Cyrene, named Simon: him they forced to take up his cross.\n33 And they came to the place that is called Golgotha, which is the place of Calvary.\n34 And they gave him wine to drink mingled with gall. And when he had tasted, he would not drink.\n35 And after they had crucified him, they divided his garments, casting lots; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying: They divided my garments among them; and upon my vesture they cast lots.\n36 And they sat and watched him.\n37 And they put over his head his cause written: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.\n38 Then were crucified with him two thieves: one on the right hand, and one on the left.\n39 And they that passed by, blasphemed him, wagging their heads,\n40 And saying: Vah, thou that destroyest the temple of God, and in three days dost rebuild it: save thy own self: if thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.\n41 In like manner also the chief priests, with the scribes and ancients, mocking, said:\n42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the king of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.\n43 He trusted in God; let him now deliver him if he will have him; for he said: I am the Son of God.\n44 And the selfsame thing the thieves also, that were crucified with him, reproached him with.\n45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over the whole earth, until the ninth hour.\n46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying: Eli, Eli, lamma sabacthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?\n47 And some that stood there and heard, said: This man calleth Elias.\n48 And immediately one of them running took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar; and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.\n49 And the others said: Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to deliver him.\n50 And Jesus again crying with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.\n51 And behold the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top even to the bottom, and the earth quaked, and the rocks were rent.\n52 And the graves were opened: and many bodies of the saints that had slept arose,\n53 And coming out of the tombs after his resurrection, came into the holy city, and appeared to many.\n54 Now the centurion and they that were with him watching Jesus, having seen the earthquake, and the things that were done, were sore afraid, saying: Indeed this was the Son of God.\n55 And there were there many women afar off, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:\n56 Among whom was Mary Magdalen, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.\n57 And when it was evening, there came a certain rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, who also himself was a disciple of Jesus.\n58 He went to Pilate, and asked the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded that the body should be delivered.\n59 And Joseph taking the body, wrapped it up in a clean linen cloth.\n60 And laid it in his own new monument, which he had hewed out in a rock. And he rolled a great stone to the door of the monument, and went his way.\n61 And there was there Mary Magdalen, and the other Mary sitting over against the sepulchre.\n62 And the next day, which followed the day of preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees came together to Pilate,\n63 Saying: Sir, we have remembered, that that seducer said, while he was yet alive: After three days I will rise again.\n64 Command therefore the sepulchre to be guarded until the third day: lest perhaps his disciples come and steal him away, and say to the people: He is risen from the dead; and the last error shall be worse than the first.\n65 Pilate saith to them: You have a guard; go, guard it as you know.\n66 And they departing, made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting guards.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where exactly in the Bible is \"And these are thy servants, and thy people: whom thou hast redeemed by thy great strength, and by thy mighty hand.\" written?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, the book of Nehemiah, chapter 1, verse 10 states: \"And these are thy servants, and thy people: whom thou hast redeemed by thy great strength, and by thy mighty hand.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Numbers, chapter 18, verse 22 - what does it say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The Old Testament\nNumbers 18:22 (Douay Rheims)\n\"That the children of Israel may not approach any more to the tabernacle, nor commit deadly sin,\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you pinpoint the book and chapter of \"And stay without the camp seven days.

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

heads of the families of the children of Israel were assembled to king Solomon in Jerusalem: that they might carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, that is, out of Sion.\n2 And all Israel assembled themselves to king Solomon on the festival day in the month of Ethanim, the same is the seventh month.\n3 And all the ancients of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark,\n4 And carried the ark of the Lord, and the tabernacle of the covenant, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, that were in the tabernacle: and the priests and the Levites carried them.\n5 And king Solomon, and all the multitude of Israel, that were assembled unto him went with him before the ark, and they sacrificed sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered.\n6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, into the oracle of the temple, into the holy of holies under the wings of the cherubims.\n7 For the cherubims spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and covered the art, and the staves thereof above.\n8 And whereas the staves stood out, the ends of them were seen without in the sanctuary before the oracle, but were not seen farther out, and there they have been unto this day.\n9 Now in the ark there was nothing else but the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the sanctuary, that a cloud filled the house of the Lord,\n11 And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of the Lord.\n12 Then Solomon said: The Lord said that he would dwell in a cloud.\n13 Building I have built a house for thy dwelling, to be thy most firm throne for ever.\n14 And the king turned his face, and blessed all the assembly of Israel: for all the assembly of Israel stood.\n15 And Solomon said: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father, and with his own hands hath accomplished it, saying:\n16 Since the day that I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel, for a house to be built, that my name might be there: but I chose David to be over my people Israel.\n17 And David my father would have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel:\n18 And the Lord said to David my father: Whereas thou hast thought in thy heart to build a house to my name, thou hast done well in having this same thing in thy mind.\n19 Nevertheless thou shalt not build me a house, but thy son, that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build a house to my name.\n20 The Lord hath performed his word which he spoke: and I stand in the room of David my father, and sit upon the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised: and have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel.\n21 And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with our fathers, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n22 And Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in the sight of the assembly of Israel, and spread forth his hands towards heaven;\n23 And said: Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heaven above, or on earth beneath: who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that have walked before thee with all their heart.\n24 Who hast kept with thy servant David my father what thou hast promised him: with thy mouth thou didst speak, and with thy hands thou hast performed, as this day proveth.\n25 Now therefore, O Lord God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father what thou hast spoken to him, saying: There shall not be taken away of thee a man in my sight, to sit on the throne of Israel: yet so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked in my sight.\n26 And now, Lord God of Israel, let thy words be established, which thou hast spoken to thy servant David my father.\n27 Is it then to be thought that God should indeed dwell upon earth? for if heaven, and the heavens of heavens cannot contain thee, how much less this house which I have built?\n28 But have regard to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, O Lord my God: hear the hymn and the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee this day:\n29 That thy eyes may be open upon this house night and day: upon the house of which thou hast said: My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth in this place to thee.\n30 That thou mayest hearken to the supplication of thy servant and of thy people Israel, whatsoever they shall pray for in this place, and hear them in the place of thy dwelling in heaven; and when thou hearest, shew them mercy.\n31 If any man trespass against his neighbour, and have an oath upon him, wherewith he is bound: and come because of the oath before thy altar to thy house,\n32 Then hear thou in heaven: and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, and bringing his way upon his own head, and justifying the just, and rewarding him according to his justice.\n33 If thy people Israel shall fly before their enemies, (because they will sin against thee,) and doing penance, and confessing to thy name, shall come, and pray, and make supplications to thee in this house:\n34 Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them back to the land which thou gavest to their fathers.\n35 If heaven shall be shut up, and there shall be no rain, because of their sins, and they praying in this place, shall do penance to thy name, and shall be converted from their sins, by occasion of their afflictions:\n36 Then hear thou them in heaven, and forgive the sins of thy servants, and of thy people Israel: and shew them the good way wherein they should walk, and give rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people in possession.\n37 If a famine arise in the land, or a pestilence, or corrupt air, or blasting, or locust, or mildew, if their enemy afflict them besieging the gates, whatsoever plague, whatsoever infirmity,\n38 Whatsoever curse or imprecation shall happen to any man of thy people Israel: when a man shall know the wound of his own heart, and shall spread forth his hands in this house,\n39 Then hear thou in heaven, in the place of thy dwelling, and forgive, and do so as to give to every one according to his ways, as thou shalt see his heart (for thou only knowest the heart of all the children of men)\n40 That they may fear thee all the days that they live upon the face of the land, which thou hast given to our fathers.\n41 Moreover also the stranger, who is not of thy people Israel, when he shall come out of a far country for thy name's sake, (for they shall hear everywhere of thy great name and thy mighty hand,\n42 And thy stretched out arm,) so when he shall come, and shall pray in this place,\n43 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy dwelling place, and do all those things, for which that stranger shall call upon thee: that all the people of the earth may learn to fear thy name, as do thy people Israel, and may prove that thy name is called upon on this house, which I have built.\n44 If thy people go out to war against their enemies, by what way soever thou shalt send them, they shall pray to thee towards the way of the city, which thou hast chosen, and towards the house, which I have built to thy name:\n45 And then hear thou in heaven their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them.\n46 But if they sin against thee (for there is no man who sinneth not) and thou being angry deliver them up to their enemies, so that they be led away captives into the land of their enemies far or near;\n47 Then if they do penance in their heart in the place of captivity, and being converted make supplication to thee in their captivity, saying: We have sinned, we have done unjustly, we have committed wickedness:\n48 And return to thee with all their heart, and all their soul, in the land of their enemies, to which they had been led captives: and pray to thee towards the way of their land, which thou gavest to their fathers, and of the city which thou hast chosen, and of the temple which I have built to thy name:\n49 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy throne, their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them:\n50 And forgive thy people, that have sinned against thee, and all their iniquities, by which they have transgressed against thee: and give them mercy before them that have made them captives, that they may have compassion on them.\n51 For they are thy people, and thy inheritance, whom thou hast brought out of the land of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron.\n52 That thy eyes may be open to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, to hear them in all things for which they shall call upon thee.\n53 For thou hast separated them to thyself for an inheritance from among all the people of the earth, as thou hast spoken by Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord God.\n54 And it came to pass, when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication to the Lord, that he rose from before the altar of the Lord: for he had fixed both knees on the ground, and had spread his hands towards heaven.\n55 And he stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a, loud voice, saying:\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

and that in Gazarim of Jupiter Hospitalis, according as they were that inhabited the place.\n3 And very bad was this invasion of evils and grievous to all.\n4 For the temple was full of the riot and revellings of the Gentiles: and of men lying with lewd women. And women thrust themselves of their accord into the holy places, and brought in things that were not lawful.\n5 The altar also was filled with unlawful things, which were forbidden by the laws.\n6 And neither were the sabbaths kept, nor the solemn days of the fathers observed, neither did any man plainly profess himself to be a Jew.\n7 But they were led by bitter constraint on the king's birthday to the sacrifices: and when the feast of Bacchus was kept, they were compelled to go about crowned with ivy in honour of Bacchus.\n8 And there went out a decree into the neighbouring cities of the Gentiles, by the suggestion of the Ptolemeans, that they also should act in like manner against the Jews, to oblige them to sacrifice:\n9 And whosoever would not conform themselves to the ways of the Gentiles, should be put to death: then was misery to be seen.\n10 For two women were accused to have circumcised their children: whom, when they had openly led about through the city with the infants hanging at their breasts, they threw down headlong from the walls.\n11 And others that had met together in caves that were near, and were keeping the sabbath day privately, being discovered by Philip, were burnt with fire, because they made a conscience to help themselves with their hands, by reason of the religious observance of the day.\n12 Now I beseech those that shall read this book, that they be not shocked at these calamities, but that they consider the things that happened, not as being for the destruction, but for the correction of our nation.\n13 For it is a token of great goodness when sinners are not suffered to go on in their ways for a long time, but are presently punished.\n14 For, not as with other nations (whom the Lord patiently expecteth, that when the day of judgment shall come, he may punish them in the fulness of their sins:)\n15 Doth he also deal with us, so as to suffer our sins to come to their height, and then take vengeance on us.\n16 And therefore he never withdraweth his mercy from us: but though he chastise his people with adversity, he forsaketh them not.\n17 But let this suffice in a few words for a warning to the readers. And now we must come to the narration.\n18 Eleazar one of the chief of the scribes, a man advanced in years, and of a comely countenance, was pressed to open his mouth to eat swine's flesh.\n19 But he, choosing rather a most glorious death than a hateful life, went forward voluntarily to the torment.\n20 And considering in what manner he was come to it, patiently bearing, he determined not to do any unlawful things for the love of life.\n21 But they that stood by, being moved with wicked pity, for the old friendship they had with the man, taking him aside, desired that flesh might be brought, which it was lawful for him to eat, that he might make as if he had eaten, as the king had commanded of the flesh of the sacrifice:\n22 That by so doing he might be delivered from death: and for the sake of their old friendship with the man they did him this courtesy.\n23 But he began to consider the dignity of his age, and his ancient years, and the inbred honour of his grey head, and his good life and conversation from a child: and he answered without delay, according to the ordinances of the holy law made by God, saying, that he would rather be sent into the other world.\n24 For it doth not become our age, said he, to dissemble: whereby many young persons might think that Eleazar, at the age of fourscore and ten years, was gone over to the life of the heathens:\n25 And so they, through my dissimulation, and for a little time of a corruptible life, should be deceived, and hereby I should bring a stain and a curse upon my old age.\n26 For though, for the present time, I should be delivered from the punishments of men, yet should I not escape the hand of the Almighty neither alive nor dead.\n27 Wherefore by departing manfully out of this life, I shall shew myself worthy of my old age:\n28 And I shall leave an example of fortitude to young men, if with a ready mind and constancy I suffer an honourable death, for the most venerable and most holy laws. And having spoken thus, he was forthwith carried to execution.\n29 And they that led him, and had been a little before more mild, were changed to wrath for the words he had spoken, which they thought were uttered out of arrogancy.\n30 But when he was now ready to die with the stripes, he groaned, and said: O Lord, who hast the holy knowledge, thou knowest manifestly that whereas I might be delivered from death, I suffer grevious pains in body: but in soul am well content to suffer these things because I fear thee.\n31 Thus did this man die, leaving not only to young men, but also to the whole nation, the memory of his death for an example of virtue and fortitude.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What is written in 2 Samuel 9:5?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at 2 Samuel 9:5 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"Then king David sent, and brought him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel of Lodabar.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"O ye dews and hoar frosts, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Your verse is located in Daniel, chapter 3.\n\nTake a look at the whole chapter:\nDaniel Chapter 3\n1 King Nabuchodonosor made a statue of gold, of sixty cubits high, and six cubits broad, and he set it up in the plain of Dura of the province of Babylon.\n2 Then Nabuchodonosor the king sent to call together the nobles, the magistrates, and the judges, the captains, the rulers, and governors, and all the chief men of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.\n3 Then the nobles, the magistrates, and the judges, the captains, and rulers, and the great men that were placed in authority, and all the princes of the provinces, were gathered together to come to the dedication of the statue, which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.

Here it is:\nDaniel Chapter 3\n1 King Nabuchodonosor made a statue of gold, of sixty cubits high, and six cubits broad, and he set it up in the plain of Dura of the province of Babylon.\n2 Then Nabuchodonosor the king sent to call together the nobles, the magistrates, and the judges, the captains, the rulers, and governors, and all the chief men of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.\n3 Then the nobles, the magistrates, and the judges, the captains, and rulers, and the great men that were placed in authority, and all the princes of the provinces, were gathered together to come to the dedication of the statue, which king Nabuchodonosor had set up. And they stood before the statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.\n4 Then a herald cried with a strong voice: To you it is commanded, O nations, tribes, and languages:\n5 That in the hour that you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, and of the flute, and of the harp, of the sackbut, and of the psaltery, and of the symphony, and of all kind of music; ye fall down and adore the golden statue which king Nabuchodonosor hath set up.\n6 But if any man shall not fall down and adore, he shall the same hour be cast into a furnace of burning fire.\n7 Upon this therefore, at the time when all the people heard the sound of the trumpet, the flute, and the harp, of the sackbut, and the psaltery, of the symphony, and of all kind of music: all the nations, tribes, and languages fell down and adored the golden statue which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.\n8 And presently at that very time some Chaldeans came and accused the Jews,\n9 And said to king Nabuchodonosor: O king, live for ever:\n10 Thou, O king, hast made a decree that every man that shall hear the sound of the trumpet, the flute, and the harp, of the sackbut, and the psaltery, of the symphony, and of all kind of music, shall prostrate himself, and adore the golden statue:\n11 And that if any man shall not fall down and adore, he should be cast into a furnace of burning fire.\n12 Now there are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the works of the province of Babylon, Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago: these men, O king, have slighted thy decree: they worship not thy gods, nor do they adore the golden statue which thou hast set up.\n13 Then Nabuchodonosor in fury, and in wrath, commanded that Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago should be brought: who immediately were brought before the king.\n14 And Nabuchodonosor the king spoke to them, and said: Is it true, O Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, that you do not worship my gods, nor adore the golden statue that I have set up?\n15 Now therefore if you be ready at what hour soever you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, flute, harp, sackbut, and psaltery, and symphony, and of all kind of music, prostrate yourselves, and adore the statue which I have made: but if you do not adore, you shall be cast the same hour into the furnace of burning fire: and who is the God that shall deliver you out of my hand?\n16 Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago answered and said to king Nabuchodonosor: We have no occasion to answer thee concerning this matter.\n17 For behold our God, whom we worship, is able to save us from the furnace of burning fire, and to deliver us out of thy hands, O king.\n18 But if he will not, be it known to thee, O king, that we will not worship thy gods, nor adore the golden statue which thou hast set up.\n19 Then was Nabuchodonosor filled with fury: and the countenance of his face was changed against Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, and he commanded that the furnace should be heated seven times more than it had been accustomed to be heated.\n20 And he commanded the strongest men that were in his army, to bind the feet of Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, and to cast them into the furnace of burning fire.\n21 And immediately these men were bound and were cast into the furnace of burning fire, with their coats, and their caps, and their shoes, and their garments.\n22 For the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace was heated exceedingly. And the flame of the fire slew those men that had cast in Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago.\n23 But these three men, that is, Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago, fell down bound in the midst of the furnace of burning fire.\n24 And they walked in the midst of the flame, praising God and blessing the Lord.\n25 Then Azarias standing up prayed in this manner, and opening his mouth in the midst of the fire, he said:\n26 Blessed art thou, O Lord, the God of our fathers, and thy name is worthy of praise, and glorious for ever:\n27 For thou art just in all that thou hast done to us, and all thy works are true, and thy ways right, and all thy judgments true.\n28 For thou hast executed true judgments in all the things that thou hast brought upon us, and upon Jerusalem the holy city of our fathers: for according to truth and judgment, thou hast brought all these things upon us for our sins.\n29 For we have sinned, and committed iniquity, departing from thee: and we have trespassed in all things:\n30 And we have not hearkened to thy commandments, nor have we observed nor done as thou hadst commanded us, that it might go well with us.\n31 Wherefore all that thou hast brought upon us, and every thing that thou hast done to us, thou hast done in true judgment:\n32 And thou hast delivered us into the hands of our enemies that are unjust, and most wicked, and prevaricators, and to a king unjust, and most wicked beyond all that are upon the earth.\n33 And now we cannot open our mouths: we are become a shame and reproach to thy servants, and to them that worship thee.\n34 Deliver us not up for ever, we beseech thee, for thy name's sake, and abolish not thy covenant.\n35 And take not away thy mercy from us for the sake of Abraham thy beloved, and Isaac thy servant, and Israel thy holy one:\n36 To whom thou hast spoken, promising that thou wouldst multiply their seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is on the sea shore.\n37 For we, O Lord, are diminished more than any nation, and are brought low in all the earth this day for our sins.\n38 Neither is there at this time prince, or leader, or prophet, or holocaust, or sacrifice, or oblation, or incense, or place of firstfruits before thee,\n39 That we may find thy mercy: nevertheless in a contrite heart and humble spirit let us be accepted.\n40 As in holocausts of rams, and bullocks, and as in thousands of fat lambs: so let our sacrifice be made in thy sight this day, that it may please thee: for there is no confusion to them that trust in thee.\n41 And now we follow thee with all our heart, and we fear thee, and seek thy face.\n42 Put us not to confusion, but deal. with us according to thy meekness, and according to the multitude of thy mercies.\n43 And deliver us according to thy wonderful works, and give glory to thy name, O Lord:\n44 And let all them be confounded that shew evils to thy servants, let them be confounded in all thy might, and let their strength be broken.\n45 And let them know that thou art the Lord, the only God, and glorious over all the world.\n46 Now the king's servants that had cast them in, ceased not to heat the furnace with brimstone, and tow, and pitch, and dry sticks,\n47 And the flame mounted up above the furnace nine and forty cubits:\n48 And it broke forth, and burnt such of the Chaldeans as it found near the furnace.\n49 But the angel of the Lord went down with Azarias and his companions into the furnace: and he drove the flame of the fire out of the furnace,\n50 And made the midst of the furnace like the blowing of a wind bringing dew, and the fire touched them not at all, nor troubled them, nor did them any harm.\n51 Then these three as with one mouth praised, and glorified, and blessed God in the furnace, saying:\n52 Blessed art thou, O Lord the God of our fathers: and worthy to be praised, and glorified, and exalted above all for ever: and blessed is the holy name of thy glory: and worthy to be praised, and exalted above all in all ages.\n53 Blessed art thou in the holy temple of thy glory: and exceedingly to be praised, and exceeding glorious for ever.\n54 Blessed art thou on the throne of thy kingdom, and exceedingly to be praised, and exalted above all for ever.\n55 Blessed art thou, that beholdest the depths, and sittest upon the cherubims: and worthy to be praised and exalted above all for ever.\n56 Blessed art thou in the firmament of heaven: and worthy of praise, and glorious for ever.\n57 All ye works of the Lord, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n58 O ye angels of the Lord, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n59 O ye heavens, bless the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever.\n60 O all ye waters that are above the heavens, bless the Lord;

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.

If any man meet thee, salute him not: and if any man salute thee, answer him not: and lay my staff upon the face of the child.\n30 But the mother of the child said: As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. He arose, therefore, and followed her.\n31 But Giezi was gone before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the child, and there was no voice nor sense: and he returned to meet him, and told him, saying: The child is not risen.\n32 Eliseus therefore went into the house, and behold the child lay dead on his bed.\n33 And going in he shut the door upon him, and upon the child, and prayed to the Lord.\n34 And he went up, and lay upon the child: and he put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and he bowed himself upon him, and the child's flesh grew warm.\n35 Then he returned and walked in the house, once to and fro: and he went up, and lay upon him: and the child gaped seven times, and opened his eyes.\n36 And he called Giezi, and said to him: Call this Sunamitess. And she being called, went in to him: and he said: Take up thy son.\n37 She came and fell at his feet, and worshipped upon the ground: and took up her son, and went out.\n38 And Eliseus returned to Galgal, and there was a famine in the land, and the sons of the prophets dwelt before him. And he said to one of his servants: Set on the great pot, and boil pottage for the sons of the prophets.\n39 And one went out into the field to gather wild herbs: and he found something like a wild vine, and gathered of it wild gourds of the field, and filled his mantle, and coming back he shred them into the pot of pottage, for he knew not what it was.\n40 And they poured it out for their companions to eat: and when they had tasted of the pottage, they cried out, saying: Death is in the pot, O man of God. And they could not eat thereof.\n41 But he said: Bring some meal. And when they had brought it, he cast it into the pot, and said: Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was now no bitterness in the pot.\n42 And a certain man came from Baalsalisa bringing to the man of God bread of the firstfruits, twenty leaves of barley, and new corn in his scrip. And he said: Give to the people, that they may eat.\n43 And his servant answered him: How much is this, that I should set it before a hundred men? He said again: Give to the people, that they may eat: for thus saith the Lord: They shall eat, and there shall be left.\n44 So he set it before them: and they ate, and there was left according to the word of the Lord.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the bible does it say \"Seeing I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them.

So Pharao awoke.\n5 He slept again, and dreamed another dream: Seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk full and fair:\n6 Then seven other ears sprung up thin and blasted,\n7 And devoured all the beauty of the former. Pharao awaked after his rest:\n8 And when morning was come, being struck with fear, he sent to all the interpreters of Egypt, and to all the wise men: and they being called for, he told them his dream, and there was not any one that could interpret it.\n9 Then at length the chief butler remembering, said: I confess my sin:\n10 The king being angry with his servants, commanded me and the chief baker to be cast into the prison of the captain of the soldiers:\n11 Where in one night both of us dreamed a dream foreboding things to come.\n12 There was there a young man a Hebrew, servant to the same captain of the soldiers: to whom we told our dreams,\n13 And we heard what afterwards the event of the thing proved to be so. For I was restored to my office: and he was hanged upon a gibbet.\n14 Forthwith at the king's command, Joseph was brought out of the prison, and they shaved him, and changing his apparel, brought him in to him.\n15 And he said to him: I have dreamed dreams, and there is no one that can expound them: Now I have heard that thou art very wise at interpreting them.\n16 Joseph answered: Without me, God shall give Pharao a prosperous answer.\n17 So Pharao told what he had dreamed: Methought I stood upon the bank of the river,\n18 And seven kine came up out of the river exceeding beautiful and full of flesh: and they grazed on green places in a marshy pasture.\n19 And behold, there followed these, other seven kine, so very ill favoured and lean, that I never saw the like in the land of Egypt:\n20 And they devoured and consumed the former,\n21 And yet gave no mark of their being full: but were as lean and ill favoured as before. I awoke, and then fell asleep again,\n22 And dreamed a dream: Seven ears of corn grew upon one stalk, full and very fair.\n23 Other seven also thin and blasted, sprung of the stock:\n24 And they devoured the beauty of the former: I told this dream to the conjecturers, and there is no man that can expound it.\n25 Joseph answered: The king's dream is one: God hath shewn to Pharao what he is about to do.\n26 The seven beautiful kine, and the seven full ears, are seven years of plenty: and both contain the same meaning of the dream.\n27 And the seven lean and thin kine that came up after them, and the seven thin ears that were blasted with the burning wind, are seven years of famine to come:\n28 Which shall be fulfilled in this order:\n29 Behold, there shall come seven years of great plenty in the whole land of Egypt:\n30 After which shall follow other seven years of so great scarcity, that all the abundance before shall be forgotten: for the famine shall consume all the land,\n31 And the greatness of the scarcity shall destroy the greatness of the plenty.\n32 And for that thou didst see the second time a dream pertaining to the same thing: it is a token of the certainty, and that the word of God cometh to pass, and is fulfilled speedily.\n33 Now therefore let the king provide a wise and industrious man, and make him ruler over the land of Egypt:\n34 That he may appoint overseers over all the countries: and gather into barns the fifth part of the fruits, during the seven fruitful years,\n35 That shall now presently ensue: and let all the corn be laid up under Pharao's hands and be reserved in the cities.\n36 And let it be in readiness, against the famine of seven years to come, which shall oppress Egypt, and the land shall not be consumed with scarcity.\n37 The counsel pleased Pharao and all his servants.\n38 And he said to them: Can we find such another man, that is full of the spirit of God?\n39 He said therefore to Joseph: Seeing God hath shewn thee all that thou hast said, can I find one wiser and one like unto thee?\n40 Thou shalt be over my house, and at the commandment of thy mouth all the people shall obey: only in the kingly throne will I be above thee.\n41 And again Pharao said to Joseph: Behold, I have appointed thee over the whole land of Egypt.\n42 And he took his ring from his own hand, and gave it into his hand: and he put upon him a robe of silk, and put a chain of gold about his neck.\n43 And he made him go up into his second chariot, the crier proclaiming that all should bow their knee before him, and that they should know he was made governor over the whole land of Egypt.\n44 And the king said to Joseph: I am Pharao; without thy commandment no man shall move hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.\n45 And he turned his name, and called him in the Egyptian tongue, The saviour of the world.

And that day indeed he held his peace.\n5 But having gotten a convenient time to further his madness, being called to counsel by Demetrius, and asked what the Jews relied upon, and what were their counsels,\n6 He answered thereunto: They among the Jews that are called Assideans, of whom Judas Machabeus is captain, nourish wars, and raise seditions, and will not suffer the realm to be in peace.\n7 For I also being deprived of my ancestors' glory (I mean of the high priesthood) am now come hither:\n8 Principally indeed out of fidelity to the king's interests, but in the next place also to provide for the good of my countrymen: for all our nation suffereth much from the evil proceedings of those men.\n9 Wherefore, O king, seeing thou knowest all these things, take care, I beseech thee, both of the country, and of our nation, according to thy humanity which is known to all men,\n10 For as long as Judas liveth, it is not possible that the state should be quiet.\n11 Now when this man had spoken to this effect, the rest also of the king's friends, who were enemies of Judas, incensed Demetrius against him.\n12 And forthwith he sent Nicanor, the commander over the elephants, governor into Judea:\n13 Giving him in charge, to take Judas himself: and disperse all them that were with him, and to make Alcimus the high priest of the great temple.\n14 Then the Gentiles who had fled out of Judea from Judas, came to Nicanor by flocks, thinking the miseries and calamities of the Jews to be the welfare of their affairs.\n15 Now when the Jews heard of Nicanor's coming, and that the nations were assembled against them, they cast earth upon their heads, and made supplication to him, who chose his people to keep them for ever, and who protected his portion by evident signs.\n16 Then at the commandment of their captain, they forthwith removed from the place where they were, and went to the town of Dessau, to meet them.\n17 Now Simon the brother of Judas had joined battle with Nicanor, but was frightened with the sudden coming of the adversaries.\n18 Nevertheless Nicanor hearing of the valour of Judas' companions, and the greatness of courage with which they fought for their country, was afraid to try the matter by the sword.\n19 Wherefore he sent Posidonius, and Theodotius, and Matthias before to present and receive the right hands.\n20 And when there had been a consultation thereupon, and the captain had acquainted the multitude with it, they were all of one mind to consent to covenants.\n21 So they appointed a day upon which they might commune together by themselves: and seats were brought out, and set for each one.\n22 But Judas ordered men to be ready in convenient places, lest some mischief might be suddenly practiced by the enemies: so they made an agreeable conference.\n23 And Nicanor abode in Jerusalem, and did no wrong, but sent away the flocks of the multitudes that had been gathered together.\n24 And Judas was always dear to him from the heart, and he was well affected to the man.\n25 And he desired him to marry a wife, and to have children. So he married: he lived quietly, and they lived in common.\n26 But Alcimus seeing the love they had one to another, and the covenants, came to Demetrius, and told him that Nicanor assented to the foreign interest, for that he meant to make Judas, who was a traitor to the kingdom, his successor.\n27 Then the king being in a rage and provoked with this man's wicked accusations, wrote to Nicanor, signifying, that he was greatly displeased with the covenant of friendship: and that he commanded him nevertheless to send Machabeus prisoner in all haste to Antioch.\n28 When this was known, Nicanor was in a consternation, and took it grievously that he should make void the articles that were agreed upon, having received no injury from the man.\n29 But because he could not oppose the king, he watched an opportunity to comply with the orders.\n30 But when Machabeus perceived that Nicanor was more stern to him, and that when they met together as usual he behaved himself in a rough manner: and was sensible that this rough behaviour came not of good, he gathered together a few of his men, and hid himself from Nicanor.\n31 But he finding himself notably prevented by the man, came to the great and holy temple: and commanded the priests that were offering the accustomed sacrifices, to deliver him the man.\n32 And when they swore unto him, that they knew not where the man was whom he sought, he stretched out his hand to the temple,\n33 And swore, saying: Unless you deliver Judas prisoner to me, I will lay this temple of God even with the ground, and will beat down the altar, and I will dedicate this temple to Bacchus.\n34 And when he had spoken thus he departed. But the priests stretching forth their hands to heaven, called upon him that was ever the defender of their nation, saying in this manner:\n35 Thou, O Lord of all things, who wantest nothing, wast pleased that the temple of thy habitation should be amongst us.\n36 Therefore now, O Lord the holy of all holies, keep this house for ever undefiled which was lately cleansed.\n37 Now Razias, one of the ancients of Jerusalem, was accused to Nicanor, a man that was a lover of the city, and of good report, who for his affection was called the father of the Jews.\n38 This man, for a long time, had held fast his purpose of keeping himself pure in the Jews' religion, and was ready to expose his body and life, that he might persevere therein.\n39 So Nicanor being willing to declare the hatred that he bore the Jews, sent five hundred soldiers to take him.\n40 For he thought by insnaring him to hurt the Jews very much.\n41 Now as the multitude sought to rush into his house, and to break open the door, and to set fire to it, when he was ready to be taken, he struck himself with his sword:\n42 Choosing to die nobly rather than to fall into the hands of the wicked, and to suffer abuses unbecoming his noble birth.\n43 But whereas through haste he missed of giving himself a sure wound, and the crowd was breaking into the doors, he ran boldly to the wall, and manfully threw himself down to the crowd:\n44 But they quickly making room for his fall, he came upon the midst of the neck.\n45 And as he had yet breath in him, being inflamed in mind he arose: and while his blood ran down with a great stream, and he was grievously wounded, he ran through the crowd:\n46 And standing upon a steep rock, when he was now almost without blood, grasping his bowels with both hands, he cast them upon the throng, calling upon the Lord of life and spirit, to restore these to him again: and so he departed this life.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where exactly in the Bible is \"And he knew him not, because his hairy hands made him like to the elder.

But they appointed him thirty pieces of silver.\n16 And from thenceforth he sought opportunity to betray him.\n17 And on the first day of the Azymes, the disciples came to Jesus, saying: Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the pasch?\n18 But Jesus said: Go ye into the city to a certain man, and say to him: the master saith, My time is near at hand, with thee I make the pasch with my disciples.\n19 And the disciples did as Jesus appointed to them, and they prepared the pasch.\n20 But when it was evening, he sat down with his twelve disciples.\n21 And whilst they were eating, he said: Amen I say to you, that one of you is about to betray me.\n22 And they being very much troubled, began every one to say: Is it I, Lord?\n23 But he answering, said: He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, he shall betray me.\n24 The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man shall be betrayed: it were better for him, if that man had not been born.\n25 And Judas that betrayed him, answering, said: Is it I, Rabbi? He saith to him: Thou hast said it.\n26 And whilst they were at supper, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke: and gave to his disciples, and said: Take ye, and eat. This is my body.\n27 And taking the chalice, he gave thanks, and gave to them, saying: Drink ye all of this.\n28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which shall be shed for many unto remission of sins.\n29 And I say to you, I will not drink from henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I shall drink it with you new in the kingdom of my Father.\n30 And a hymn being said, they went out unto mount Olivet.\n31 Then Jesus said to them: All you shall be scandalized in me this night. For it is written: I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be dispersed.\n32 But after I shall be risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.\n33 And Peter answering, said to him: Although all shall be scandalized in thee, I will never be scandalized.\n34 Jesus said to him: Amen I say to thee, that in this night before the cock crow, thou wilt deny me thrice.\n35 Peter saith to him: Yea, though I should die with thee, I will not deny thee. And in like manner said all the disciples.\n36 Then Jesus came with them into a country place which is called Gethsemani; and he said to his disciples: Sit you here, till I go yonder and pray.\n37 And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to grow sorrowful and to be sad.\n38 Then he saith to them: My soul is sorrowful even unto death: stay you here, and watch with me.\n39 And going a little further, he fell upon his face, praying, and saying: My Father, if it be possible, let this chalice pass from me. Nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.\n40 And he cometh to his disciples, and findeth them asleep, and he saith to Peter: What? Could you not watch one hour with me?\n41 Watch ye, and pray that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh weak.\n42 Again the second time, he went and prayed, saying: My Father, if this chalice may not pass away, but I must drink it, thy will be done.\n43 And he cometh again and findeth them sleeping: for their eyes were heavy.\n44 And leaving them, he went again: and he prayed the third time, saying the selfsame word.\n45 Then he cometh to his disciples, and saith to them: Sleep ye now and take your rest; behold the hour is at hand, and the Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners.\n46 Rise, let us go: behold he is at hand that will betray me.\n47 As he yet spoke, behold Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and the ancients of the people.\n48 And he that betrayed him, gave them a sign, saying: Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he, hold him fast.\n49 And forthwith coming to Jesus, he said: Hail, Rabbi. And he kissed him.\n50 And Jesus said to him: Friend, whereto art thou come? Then they came up, and laid hands on Jesus, and held him.\n51 And behold one of them that were with Jesus, stretching forth his hand, drew out his sword: and striking the servant of the high priest, cut off his ear.\n52 Then Jesus saith to him: Put up again thy sword into its place: for all that take the sword shall perish with the sword.\n53 Thinkest thou that I cannot ask my Father, and he will give me presently more than twelve legions of angels?\n54 How then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that so it must be done?\n55 In that same hour Jesus said to the multitudes: You are come out as it were to a robber with swords and clubs to apprehend me. I sat daily with you, teaching in the temple, and you laid not hands on me.\n56 Now all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then the disciples all leaving him, fled.\n57 But they holding Jesus led him to Caiphas the high priest, where the scribes and the ancients were assembled.\n58 And Peter followed him afar off, even to the court of the high priest. And going in, he sat with the servants, that he might see the end.\n59 And the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death:\n60 And they found not, whereas many false witnesses had come in. And last of all there came two false witnesses:\n61 And they said: This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and after three days to rebuild it.\n62 And the high priest rising up, said to him: Answerest thou nothing to the things which these witness against thee?\n63 But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest said to him: I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us if thou be the Christ the Son of God.\n64 Jesus saith to him: Thou hast said it. Nevertheless I say to you, hereafter you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of the power of God, and coming in the clouds of heaven.\n65 Then the high priests rent his garments, saying: He hath blasphemed; what further need have we of witnesses? Behold, now you have heard the blasphemy:\n66 What think you? But they answering, said: He is guilty of death.\n67 Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him: and others struck his face with the palms of their hands,\n68 Saying: Prophesy unto us, O Christ, who is he that struck thee?\n69 But Peter sat without in the court: and there came to him a servant maid, saying: Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilean.\n70 But he denied before them all, saying: I know not what thou sayest.\n71 And as he went out of the gate, another maid saw him, and she saith to them that were there: This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth.\n72 And again he denied with an oath, I know not the man.\n73 And after a little while they came that stood by, and said to Peter: Surely thou also art one of them; for even thy speech doth discover thee.\n74 Then he began to curse and to swear that he knew not the man. And immediately the cock crew.\n75 And Peter remembered the word of Jesus which he had said: Before the cock crow, thou wilt deny me thrice.

And that day indeed he held his peace.\n5 But having gotten a convenient time to further his madness, being called to counsel by Demetrius, and asked what the Jews relied upon, and what were their counsels,\n6 He answered thereunto: They among the Jews that are called Assideans, of whom Judas Machabeus is captain, nourish wars, and raise seditions, and will not suffer the realm to be in peace.\n7 For I also being deprived of my ancestors' glory (I mean of the high priesthood) am now come hither:\n8 Principally indeed out of fidelity to the king's interests, but in the next place also to provide for the good of my countrymen: for all our nation suffereth much from the evil proceedings of those men.\n9 Wherefore, O king, seeing thou knowest all these things, take care, I beseech thee, both of the country, and of our nation, according to thy humanity which is known to all men,\n10 For as long as Judas liveth, it is not possible that the state should be quiet.\n11 Now when this man had spoken to this effect, the rest also of the king's friends, who were enemies of Judas, incensed Demetrius against him.\n12 And forthwith he sent Nicanor, the commander over the elephants, governor into Judea:\n13 Giving him in charge, to take Judas himself: and disperse all them that were with him, and to make Alcimus the high priest of the great temple.\n14 Then the Gentiles who had fled out of Judea from Judas, came to Nicanor by flocks, thinking the miseries and calamities of the Jews to be the welfare of their affairs.\n15 Now when the Jews heard of Nicanor's coming, and that the nations were assembled against them, they cast earth upon their heads, and made supplication to him, who chose his people to keep them for ever, and who protected his portion by evident signs.\n16 Then at the commandment of their captain, they forthwith removed from the place where they were, and went to the town of Dessau, to meet them.\n17 Now Simon the brother of Judas had joined battle with Nicanor, but was frightened with the sudden coming of the adversaries.\n18 Nevertheless Nicanor hearing of the valour of Judas' companions, and the greatness of courage with which they fought for their country, was afraid to try the matter by the sword.\n19 Wherefore he sent Posidonius, and Theodotius, and Matthias before to present and receive the right hands.\n20 And when there had been a consultation thereupon, and the captain had acquainted the multitude with it, they were all of one mind to consent to covenants.\n21 So they appointed a day upon which they might commune together by themselves: and seats were brought out, and set for each one.\n22 But Judas ordered men to be ready in convenient places, lest some mischief might be suddenly practiced by the enemies: so they made an agreeable conference.\n23 And Nicanor abode in Jerusalem, and did no wrong, but sent away the flocks of the multitudes that had been gathered together.\n24 And Judas was always dear to him from the heart, and he was well affected to the man.\n25 And he desired him to marry a wife, and to have children. So he married: he lived quietly, and they lived in common.\n26 But Alcimus seeing the love they had one to another, and the covenants, came to Demetrius, and told him that Nicanor assented to the foreign interest, for that he meant to make Judas, who was a traitor to the kingdom, his successor.\n27 Then the king being in a rage and provoked with this man's wicked accusations, wrote to Nicanor, signifying, that he was greatly displeased with the covenant of friendship: and that he commanded him nevertheless to send Machabeus prisoner in all haste to Antioch.\n28 When this was known, Nicanor was in a consternation, and took it grievously that he should make void the articles that were agreed upon, having received no injury from the man.\n29 But because he could not oppose the king, he watched an opportunity to comply with the orders.\n30 But when Machabeus perceived that Nicanor was more stern to him, and that when they met together as usual he behaved himself in a rough manner: and was sensible that this rough behaviour came not of good, he gathered together a few of his men, and hid himself from Nicanor.\n31 But he finding himself notably prevented by the man, came to the great and holy temple: and commanded the priests that were offering the accustomed sacrifices, to deliver him the man.\n32 And when they swore unto him, that they knew not where the man was whom he sought, he stretched out his hand to the temple,\n33 And swore, saying: Unless you deliver Judas prisoner to me, I will lay this temple of God even with the ground, and will beat down the altar, and I will dedicate this temple to Bacchus.\n34 And when he had spoken thus he departed. But the priests stretching forth their hands to heaven, called upon him that was ever the defender of their nation, saying in this manner:\n35 Thou, O Lord of all things, who wantest nothing, wast pleased that the temple of thy habitation should be amongst us.\n36 Therefore now, O Lord the holy of all holies, keep this house for ever undefiled which was lately cleansed.\n37 Now Razias, one of the ancients of Jerusalem, was accused to Nicanor, a man that was a lover of the city, and of good report, who for his affection was called the father of the Jews.\n38 This man, for a long time, had held fast his purpose of keeping himself pure in the Jews' religion, and was ready to expose his body and life, that he might persevere therein.\n39 So Nicanor being willing to declare the hatred that he bore the Jews, sent five hundred soldiers to take him.\n40 For he thought by insnaring him to hurt the Jews very much.\n41 Now as the multitude sought to rush into his house, and to break open the door, and to set fire to it, when he was ready to be taken, he struck himself with his sword:\n42 Choosing to die nobly rather than to fall into the hands of the wicked, and to suffer abuses unbecoming his noble birth.\n43 But whereas through haste he missed of giving himself a sure wound, and the crowd was breaking into the doors, he ran boldly to the wall, and manfully threw himself down to the crowd:\n44 But they quickly making room for his fall, he came upon the midst of the neck.\n45 And as he had yet breath in him, being inflamed in mind he arose: and while his blood ran down with a great stream, and he was grievously wounded, he ran through the crowd:\n46 And standing upon a steep rock, when he was now almost without blood, grasping his bowels with both hands, he cast them upon the throng, calling upon the Lord of life and spirit, to restore these to him again: and so he departed this life.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Read me Exodus 18:2", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Exodus 18:2, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"He took Sephora the wife of Moses whom he had sent back:\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book is the quote \"And he said to me: Go in, and see the wicked abominations which they commit here.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, the book of Ezekiel, chapter 8, verse 9 states: \"And he said to me: Go in, and see the wicked abominations which they commit here.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Recite Hosea 13:7", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The Old Testament\nHosea 13:7 (Douay Rheims)\n\"And I will be to them as a lioness, as a leopard in the way of the Assyrians.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"I beheld the earth, and lo it was void, and nothing: and the heavens, and there was no light in them.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Your verse is located in Jeremiah, chapter 4.\n\nTake a look at the whole chapter:\nJeremiah Chapter 4\n1 If thou wilt return, O Israel, saith the Lord, return to me: if thou wilt take away thy stumblingblocks out of my sight, thou shalt not be moved.\n2 And thou shalt swear: As the Lord liveth, in truth, and in judgement, and in justice: and the Gentiles shall bless him, and shall praise him.\n3 For thus saith the Lord to the men of Juda and Jerusalem: Break up anew your fallow ground, and sow not upon thorns:\n4 Be circumcised to the Lord, and take away the foreskins of your hearts, ye men of Juda, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my indignation come forth like fire, and burn, and there be none that can quench it: because of the wickedness of your thoughts.\n5 Declare ye in Juda, and make it heard in Jerusalem: speak, and sound with the trumpet in the land: cry aloud, and say: Assemble yourselves, and let us go into strong cities.\n6 Set up the standard in Sion.

kill some of the people, and to persecute them.\n3 Then Judas fought against the children of Esau in Idumea, and them that were in Acrabathane: because they beset the Israelites around about, and he made a great slaughter of them.\n4 And he remembered the malice of the children of Bean: who were a snare and a stumblingblock to the people, by lying in wait for them in the way.\n5 And they were shut up by him in towers, and he set upon them, and devoted them to utter destruction, and burnt their towers with fire, and all that were in them.\n6 Then he passed over to the children of Ammon, where he found a mighty power, and much people, and Timotheus was their captain:\n7 And he fought many battles with them, and they were discomfited in their sight, and he smote them:\n8 And he took the city of Gazer and her towns, and returned into Judea.\n9 And the Gentiles that were in Galaad, assembled themselves together against the Israelites that were in their quarters to destroy them: and they fled into the fortress of Datheman.\n10 And they sent letters to Judas and his brethren, saying, The heathens that are round about are gathered together against us, to destroy us:\n11 And they are preparing to come, and to take the fortress into which we are fled: and Timotheus is the captain of their host.\n12 Now therefore come, and deliver us out of their hands, for many of us are slain.\n13 And all our brethren that were in the places of Tubin, are killed: and they have carried away their wives, and their children, captives, and taken their spoils, and they have slain there almost a thousand men.\n14 And while they were yet reading these letters, behold there came other messengers out of Galilee with their garments rent, who related according to these words:\n15 Saying, that they of Ptolemais, and of Tyre, and of Sidon, were assembled against them, and all Galilee is filled with strangers, in order to consume us.\n16 Now when Judas and all the people heard these words, a great assembly met together to consider what they should do for their brethren that were in trouble, and were assaulted by them.\n17 And Judas said to Simon his brother: Choose thee men, and go, and deliver thy brethren in Galilee: and I, and my brother Jonathan will go into the country of Galaad.\n18 And he left Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias captains of the people with the remnant of the army in Judea to keep it:\n19 And he commanded them, saying: Take ye the charge of this people: but make no war against the heathens, till we return.\n20 Now three thousand men were allotted to Simon, to go into Galilee: and eight thousand to Judas to go into the land of Galaad.\n21 And Simon went into Galilee, and fought many battles with the heathens: and the heathens were discomfited before his face, and he pursued them even to the gate of Ptolemais.\n22 And there fell of the heathens almost three thousand men, and he took the spoils of them,\n23 And he took with him those that were in Galilee and in Arbatis with their wives, and children, and all that they had, and he brought them into Judea with great joy.\n24 And Judas Machabeus, and Jonathan his brother passed over the Jordan, and went three days' journey through the desert.\n25 And the Nabutheans met them, and received them in a peaceable manner, and told them all that happened to their brethren in the land of Galaad,\n26 And that many of them were shut up in Barasa, and in Bosor, and in Alima, and in Casphor, and in Mageth, and in Carnaim: all these strong and great cities.\n27 Yea, and that they were kept shut up in the rest of the cities of Galaad, and that they had appointed to bring their army on the morrow near to these cities, and to take them and to destroy them all in one day.\n28 Then Judas and his army suddenly turned their march into the desert, to Bosor, and took the city: and he slew every male by the edge of the sword, and took all their spoils, and burnt it with fire.\n29 And they removed from thence by night, and went till they came to the fortress.\n30 And it came to pass that early in the morning, when they lifted up their eyes, behold there were people without number, carrying ladders and engines to take the fortress, and assault them.\n31 And Judas saw that the fight was begun, and the cry of the battle went up to heaven like a trumpet, and a great cry out of the city:\n32 And he said to his host: Fight ye to day for your brethren.\n33 And he came with three companies behind them, and they sounded their trumpets, and cried out in prayer.\n34 And the host of Timotheus understood that it was Machabeus, and they fled away before his face: and they made a great slaughter of them: and there fell of them in that day almost eight thousand men.\n35 And Judas turned aside to Maspha, and assaulted, and took it, and he slew every male thereof, and took the spoils thereof, and burnt it with fire.\n36 From thence he marched, and took Casbon, and Mageth, and Bosor, and the rest of the cities of Galaad.\n37 But after this Timotheus gathered another army, and camped over against Raphon beyond the torrent.\n38 And Judas sent men to view the army: and they brought him word, saying: All the nations, that are round about us, are assembled unto him an army exceeding great:\n39 And they have hired the Arabians to help them, and they have pitched their tents beyond the torrent, ready to come to fight against thee. And Judas went to meet them.\n40 And Timotheus said to the captains of his army: When Judas and his army come near the torrent of water, if he pass over unto us first, we shall not be able to withstand him: for he will certainly prevail over us.\n41 But if he be afraid to pass over, and camp on the other side of the river, we will pass over to them and shall prevail against him.\n42 Now when Judas came near the torrent of water, he set the scribes of the people by the torrent, and commanded them, saying: Suffer no man to stay behind: but let all come to the battle.\n43 And he passed over to them first, and all the people after him, and all the heathens were discomfited before them, and they threw away their weapons, and fled to the temple that was in Carnaim.\n44 And he took that city, and the temple he burnt with fire, with all things that were therein: and Carnaim was subdued, and could not stand against the face of Judas.\n45 And Judas gathered together all the Israelites that were in the land of Galaad, from the least even to the greatest, and their wives, and children, and an army exceeding great, to come into the land of Juda.\n46 And they came as far as Ephron: now this was a great city situate in the way, strongly fortified, and there was no means to turn from it on the right hand or on the left, but the way was through the midst of it.\n47 And they that were in the city, shut themselves in, and stopped up the gates with stones: and Judas sent to them with peaceable words,\n48 Saying: Let us pass through your land, to go into our country: and no man shall hurt you: we will only pass through on foot. But they would not open to them.\n49 Then Judas commanded proclamation to be made in the camp, that they should make an assault every man in the place where he was.\n50 And the men of the army drew near, and he assaulted that city all the day, and all the night, and the city was delivered into his hands:\n51 And they slew every male with the edge of the sword, and he razed the city, and took the spoils thereof, and passed through all the city over them that were slain.\n52 Then they passed over the Jordan to the great plain that is over against Bethsan.\n53 And Judas gathered together the hindmost, and he exhorted the people all the way through, till they came into the land of Juda.\n54 And they went up to mount Sion with joy and gladness, and offered holocausts, because not one of them was slain, till they had returned in peace.\n55 Now in the days that Judas and Jonathan were in the land of Galaad, and Simon his brother in Galilee before Ptolemais,\n56 Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias captain of the soldiers, heard of the good success, and the battles that were fought.\n57 And he said: Let us also get us a name, and let us go fight against the Gentiles that are round about us.\n58 And he gave charge to them that were in his army, and they went towards Jamnia.\n59 And Gorgias and his men went out of the city, to give them battle.\n60 And Joseph and Azarias were put to flight, and were pursued unto the borders of Judea: and there fell, on that day, of the people of Israel about two thousand men, and there was a great overthrow of the people:\n61 Because they did not hearken to Judas, and his brethren, thinking that they should do manfully.\n62 But they were not of the seed of those men by whom salvation was brought to Israel.\n63 And the men of Juda were magnified exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and of all the nations where their name was heard.\n64 And people assembled to them with joyful acclamations.\n65 Then Judas and his brethren went forth and attacked the children of Esau, in the land toward the south, and he took Chebron, and her towns: and he burnt the walls thereof and the towers all round it.\n66 And he removed his camp to go into the land of the aliens, and he went through Samaria.\n67 In that day some priests fell in battle, while desiring to do manfully they went out unadvisedly to fight.\n68 And Judas turned to Azotus into the land of the strangers, and he threw down their altars, and he burnt the statues of their gods with fire: and he took the spoils of the cities, and returned into the land of Juda.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What is written in 2 Chronicles 35:17?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from 2 Chronicles 35:17, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And the children of Israel that were found there, kept the phase at that time, and the feast of unleavened bread seven days.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does 2 Corinthians chapter 13 verse 3 say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from 2 Corinthians 13:3 in the New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"Do you seek a proof of Christ that speaketh in me, who towards you is not weak, but is mighty in you?\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Acts 23:30", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Acts 23:30 of the New Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"And when I was told of ambushes that they had prepared for him, I sent him to thee, signifying also to his accusers to plead before thee.

And he broke the bands, as a man would break a thread of tow twined with spittle, when it smelleth the fire: so it was not known wherein his strength Jay.\n10 And Dalila said to him: Behold thou hast mocked me, and hast told me a false thing: but now at least tell me wherewith thou mayest be bound.\n11 And he answered her: If I shall be bound with new ropes, that were never in work, I shall be weak and like other men.\n12 Dalila bound him again with these, and cried out: The Philistines are upon thee, Samson, there being an ambush prepared for him in the chamber. But he broke the bands like threads of webs.\n13 And Dalila said to him again: How long dost thou deceive me, and tell me lies? shew me wherewith thou mayest be bound. And Samson answered her: If thou plattest the seven locks of my head with a lace, and tying them round about a nail fastenest it in the ground, I shall be weak.\n14 And when Dalila had done this, she said to him: The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And awaking out of his sleep he drew out the nail with the hairs and the lace.\n15 And Dalila said to him: How dost thou say thou lovest me, when thy mind is not with me? Thou hast told me lies these three times, and wouldst not tell me wherein thy great strength lieth.\n16 And when she pressed him much, and continually hung upon him for many days, giving him no time to rest, his soul fainted away, and was wearied even until death.\n17 Then opening the truth of the thing, he said to her: The razor hath never come upon my head, for I am a Nazarite, that is to say, consecrated to God from my mother's womb: if my head be shaven, my strength shall depart from me, and I shall become weak, and shall be like other men.\n18 Then seeing that be had discovered to her all his mind, she sent to the princes of the Philistines, saying: Come up this once more, for now he hath opened his heart to me.

And she called a barber, and shaved his seven locks, and began to drive him away, and thrust him from her: for immediately his strength departed from him.\n20 And she said: The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And awaking from sleep, he said in his mind: I will go out as I did before, and shake myself, not knowing that the Lord was departed from him.\n21 Then the Philistines seized upon him, and forthwith pulled out his eyes, and led him bound in chains to Gaza, and shutting him up in prison made him grind.\n22 And now his hair began to grow again.\n23 And the princes of the Philistines assembled together, to offer great sacrifices to Dagon their god, and to make merry, saying: Our god hath delivered our enemy Samson into our hands.\n24 And the people also seeing this, praised their god, and said the same: Our god hath delivered our adversary into our bands, him that destroyed our country and killed very many.\n25 And rejoicing in their feasts, when they had now taken their good cheer, they commanded that Samson should be called, and should play before them.

Tell me, what hast thou in thy house? And she answered: I thy handmaid have nothing in my house but a little oil, to anoint me.\n3 And he said to her: Go, borrow of all thy neighbours empty vessels not a few.\n4 And go in, and shut thy door, when thou art within, and thy sons: and pour out thereof into all those vessels: and when they are full take them away.\n5 So the woman went, and shut the door upon her, and upon her sons: they brought her the vessels, and she poured in.\n6 And when the vessels were full, she said to her son: Bring me yet a vessel.

And he said: Go, sell the oil, and pay thy creditor: and thou and thy sons live of the rest.\n8 And there was a day when Eliseus passed by Sunam: now there was a great woman there, who detained him to eat bread; and as he passed often that way, he turned into her house to eat bread.\n9 And she said to her husband: I perceive that this is a holy man of God, who often passeth by us.\n10 Let us therefore make him a little chamber, and put a little bed in it for him, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick, that when he cometh to us, he may abide there.\n11 Now there was a certain day when he came and turned in to the chamber, and rested there.\n12 And he said to Giezi his servant Call this Sunamitess.

But others said: It is a prophet, as one of the prophets.\n16 Which Herod hearing, said: John whom I beheaded, he is risen again from the dead.\n17 For Herod himself had sent and apprehended John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, because he had married her.\n18 For John said to Herod: It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's wife.\n19 Now Herodias laid snares for him: and was desirous to put him to death, and could not.\n20 For Herod feared John, knowing him to be a just and holy man: and kept him, and when he heard him, did many things: and he heard him willingly.\n21 And when a convenient day was come, Herod made a supper for his birthday, for the princes, and tribunes, and chief men of Galilee.\n22 And when the daughter of the same Herodias had come in, and had danced, and pleased Herod, and them that were at table with him, the king said to the damsel: Ask of me what thou wilt, and I will give it thee.\n23 And he swore to her: Whatsoever thou shalt ask I will give thee, though it be the half of my kingdom.\n24 Who when she was gone out, said to her mother, What shall I ask? But she said: The head of John the Baptist.\n25 And when she was come in immediately with haste to the king, she asked, saying: I will that forthwith thou give me in a dish, the head of John the Baptist.\n26 And the king was struck sad. Yet because of his oath, and because of them that were with him at table, he would not displease her:\n27 But sending an executioner, he commanded that his head should be brought in a dish.\n28 And he beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head in a dish: and gave it to the damsel, and the damsel gave it to her mother.\n29 Which his disciples hearing came, and took his body, and laid it in a tomb.\n30 And the apostles coming together unto Jesus, related to him all things that they had done and taught.\n31 And he said to them: Come apart into a desert place, and rest a little.

And they said to him: Let us go and buy bread for two hundred pence, and we will give them to eat.\n38 And he saith to them: How many loaves have you? go and see. And when they knew, they say: Five, and two fishes.\n39 And he commanded them that they should make them all sit down by companies upon the green grass.\n40 And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds and by fifties.\n41 And when he had taken the five loaves, and the two fishes: looking up to heaven, he blessed, and broke the loaves, and gave to his disciples to set before them: and the two fishes he divided among them all.\n42 And they all did eat, and had their fill.\n43 And they took up the leavings, twelve full baskets of fragments, and of the fishes.\n44 And they that did eat, were five thousand men.\n45 And immediately he obliged his disciples to go up into the ship, that they might go before him over the water to Bethsaida, whilst he dismissed the people.\n46 And when he had dismissed them, he went up to the mountain to pray.\n47 And when it was late, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and himself alone on the land.\n48 And seeing them labouring in rowing, (for the wind was against them,) and about the fourth watch of the night, he cometh to them walking upon the sea, and he would have passed by them.\n49 But they seeing him walking upon the sea, thought it was an apparition, and they cried out.\n50 For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he spoke with them, and said to them: Have a good heart, it is I, fear ye not.\n51 And he went up to them into the ship, and the wind ceased: and they were far more astonished within themselves:\n52 For they understood not concerning the loaves; for their heart was blinded.\n53 And when they had passed over, they came into the land of Genezareth, and set to the shore.\n54 And when they were gone out of the ship, immediately they knew him:\n55 And running through that whole country, they began to carry about in beds those that were sick, where they heard he was.\n56 And whithersoever he entered, into towns or into villages or cities, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they might touch but the hem of his garment: and as many as touched him were made whole.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Show me Mark 16:11", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Mark 16:11, New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And they hearing that he was alive, and had been seen by her, did not believe.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- Book: Matthew\n- Chapter: 10\n- Verse: 15", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the New Testament, Matthew chapter 10, verse 15 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"Amen I say to you, it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.\"", "role": "assistant" } ]

name of his mother was Haphsiba.\n2 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, according to the idols of the nations, which the Lord destroyed from before the face of the children of Israel.\n3 And he turned, and built up the high places which Ezechias his father had destroyed: and he set up altars to Baal, and made groves, as Achab the king of Israel had done: and he adored all the host of heaven, and served them.\n4 And he built altars in the house of the Lord, of which the Lord said: In Jerusalem I will put my name.\n5 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the temple of the Lord.\n6 And he made his son pass through fire: and he used divination, and observed omens, and appointed pythons, and multiplied soothsayers to do evil before the Lord, and to provoke him.\n7 He set also an idol of the grove, which he had made, in the temple of the Lord: concerning which the Lord said to David, and to Solomon his son: In this temple, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name for ever.\n8 And I will no more make the feet of Israel to be moved out of the land, which I gave to their fathers: only if they will observe to do all that I have commanded them according to the law which my servant Moses commanded them.\n9 But they hearkened not: but were seduced by Manasses, to do evil more than the nations which the Lord destroyed before the children of Israel.\n10 And the Lord spoke in the hand of his servants, the prophets, saying:\n11 Because Manasses king of Juda hath done these most wicked abominations, beyond all that the Amorrhites did before him, and hath made Juda also to sin with his filthy doings:\n12 Therefore thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Behold I will bring on evils upon Jerusalem and Juda: that whosoever shall hear of them, both his ears shall tingle.\n13 And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the weight of the house of Achab: and I will efface Jerusalem, as tables are wont to be effaced, and I will erase and turn it, and draw the pencil often over the face thereof.\n14 And I will leave the remnants of my inheritance, and will deliver them into the hands of their enemies: and they shall become a prey, and a spoil to all their enemies.\n15 Because they have done evil before me, and have continued to provoke me, from the day that their fathers came out of Egypt, even unto this day.\n16 Moreover Manasses shed also very much innocent blood, till he filled Jerusalem up to the mouth: besides his sins, wherewith he made Juda to sin, to do evil before the Lord.\n17 Now the rest of the acts of Manasses, and all that he did, and his sin which he sinned, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?\n18 And Manasses slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Oza: and Amen his son reigned in his stead.\n19 Two and twenty years old was Amen when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Messalemeth the daughter of Harus of Jeteba.\n20 And he did evil in the sight, of the Lord, as Manasses his father had done.\n21 And he walked in all the way in which his father had walked: and he served the abominations which his father had served, and he adored them;\n22 And forsook the Lord the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.\n23 And his servants plotted against him, and slew the king in his own house.\n24 But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amen: and made Josias his son their king in his stead.\n25 But the rest of the acts of Amen which he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?\n26 And they buried

text:\nDaniel Chapter 13\n1 Now there was a man that dwelt in Babylon, and his name was Joakim:\n2 And he took a wife whose name was Susanna, the daughter of Helcias, a very beautiful woman, and one that feared God.\n3 For her parents being just, had instructed their daughter according to the law of Moses.\n4 Now Joakim was very rich, and had an orchard near his house: and the Jews resorted to him, because he was the most honourable of them all.\n5 And there were two of the ancients of the people appointed judges that year, of whom the Lord said: Iniquity came out from Babylon from the ancient judges, that seemed to govern the people.\n6 These men frequented the house of Joakim, and all that had any matters of judgment came to them.\n7 And when the people departed away at noon, Susanna went in, and walked in her husband's orchard.\n8 And the old men saw her going in every day, and walking: and they were inflamed with lust towards her:\n9 And they perverted their own mind and turned away their eyes that they might not look unto heaven, nor remember just judgments.\n10 So they were both wounded with the love of her, yet they did not make known their grief one to the other:\n11 For they were ashamed to declare to one another their lust, being desirous to have to do with her.\n12 And they watched carefully every day to see her. And one said to the other:\n13 Let us now go home, for it is dinner time. So going out they departed one from another.\n14 And turning back again, they came both to the same place: and asking one another the cause, they acknowledged their lust; and then they agreed upon a time, when they might find her alone.\n15 And it fell out, as they watched a fit day, she went in on a time, as yesterday and the day before, with two maids only, and was desirous to wash herself in the orchard: for it was hot weather.\n16 And there was nobody there, but the two old men that had hid themselves and were beholding her.\n17 So she said to the maids: Bring me oil, and washing balls, and shut the doors of the orchard, that I may wash me.\n18 And they did as she bade them: and they shut the doors of the orchard, and went out by a back door to fetch what she had commanded them, and they knew not that the elders were hid within.\n19 Now when the maids were gone forth, the two elders arose, and ran to her, and said:\n20 Behold the doors of the orchard are shut, and nobody seeth us, and we are in love with thee: wherefore consent to us, and lie with us.\n21 But if thou wilt not, we will bear witness against thee, that a young man was with thee, and therefore thou didst send away thy maids from thee.\n22 Susanna sighed, and said: I am straitened on every side: for if I do this thing, it is death to me: and if I do it not, I shall not escape your hands.\n23 But it is better for me to fall into your hands without doing it, than to sin in the sight of the Lord.\n24 With that Susanna cried out with a loud voice: and the elders also cried out against her.\n25 And one of them ran to the door of the orchard, and opened it.\n26 So when the servants of the house heard the cry in the orchard, they rushed in by the back door to see what was the matter.\n27 But after the old men had spoken, the servants were greatly ashamed: for never had there been any such word said of Susanna. And on the next day,\n28 When the people were come to Joakim her husband, the two elders also came full of wicked device against Susanna, to put her to death.\n29 And they said before the people: Send to Susanna daughter of Helcias the wife of Joakim. And presently they sent.\n30 And she came with her parents, and children, and all her kindred.\n31 Now Susanna was exceeding delicate, and beautiful to behold.\n32 But those wicked men commanded that her face should be uncovered, (for she was covered,) that so at least they might be satisfied with her beauty.\n33 Therefore her friends and all her acquaintance wept.\n34 But the two elders rising up in the midst of the people, laid their hands upon her head.\n35 And she weeping looked up to heaven, for her heart had confidence in the Lord.\n36 And the elders said: As we walked in the orchard alone, this woman came in with two maids, and shut the doors of the orchard, and sent away the maids from her.\n37 Then a young man that was there hid came to her, and lay with her.\n38 But we that were in a corner of the orchard, seeing this wickedness, ran up to them, and we saw them lie together.\n39 And him indeed we could not take, because he was stronger than us, and opening the doors he leaped out:\n40 But having taken this woman, we asked who the young man was, but she would not tell us: of this thing we are witnesses.\n41 The multitude believed them as being the elders and the judges of the people, and they condemned her to death.\n42 Then Susanna cried out with a loud voice, and said: O eternal God, who knowest hidden things, who knowest all things before they come to pass,\n43 Thou knowest that they have borne false witness against me: and behold I must die, whereas I have done none of these things, which these men have maliciously forged against me.\n44 And the Lord heard her voice.\n45 And when she was led to be put to death, the Lord raised up the holy spirit of a young boy, whose name was Daniel.\n46 And he cried out with a loud voice I am clear from the blood of this woman.\n47 Then all the people turning themselves towards him, said: What meaneth this word that thou hast spoken?\n48 But he standing in the midst of them, said: Are ye so foolish, ye children of Israel, that without examination or knowledge of the truth, you have condemned a daughter of Israel?\n49 Return to judgment, for they have borne false witness against her.\n50 So all the people turned again in haste, and the old men said to him: Come, and sit thou down among us, and shew it us: seeing God hath given thee the honour of old age.\n51 And Daniel said to the people: Separate these two far from one another, and I will examine them.\n52 So when they were put asunder one from the other, he called one of them, and said to him: O thou that art grown old in evil days, now are thy sins come out, which thou hast committed before:\n53 In judging unjust judgments, oppressing the innocent, and letting the guilty to go free, whereas the Lord saith: The innocent and the just thou shalt not kill.\n54 Now then, if thou sawest her, tell me under what tree thou sawest them conversing together. He said: Under a mastic tree.\n55 And Daniel said: Well hast thou lied against thy own head: for behold the angel of God having received the sentence of him, shall cut thee in two.\n56 And having put him aside, he commanded that the other should come, and he said to him: O thou seed of Chanaan, and not of Juda, beauty hath deceived thee, and lust hath perverted thy heart:\n57 Thus did you do to the daughters of Israel, and they for fear conversed with you: but a daughter of Juda would not abide your wickedness.\n58 Now therefore tell me, under what tree didst thou take them conversing together. And he answered: Under a holm tree.\n59 And Daniel said to him: Well hast thou also lied against thy own head: for the angel of the Lord waiteth with a sword to cut thee in two, and to destroy you.\n60 With that all the assembly cried out with a loud voice, and they blessed God, who saveth them that trust in him.\n61 And they rose up against the two elders, (for Daniel had convicted them of false witness by their own mouth,) and they did to them as they had maliciously dealt against their neighbour,\n62 To fulfill the law of Moses: and they put them to death, and innocent blood was saved in that day.\n63 But Helcias and his wife praised God, for their daughter Susanna, with Joakim her husband, and all her kindred, because there was no dishonesty found in her.\n64 And Daniel became great in the sight of the people from that day, and thenceforward.\n65 And king Astyages was gathered to his fathers, and Cyrus the Persian received his kingdom.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book is the quote \"Were sent by the king's messengers to all provinces, to kill and destroy all the Jews, both young and old, little children, and women, in one day, that is, on the thirteenth of the twelfth month, which is called Adar, and to make a spoil of their goods.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"Were sent by the king's messengers to all provinces, to kill and destroy all the Jews, both young and old, little children, and women, in one day, that is, on the thirteenth of the twelfth month, which is called Adar, and to make a spoil of their goods.\" appears in Esther, chapter 3, at verse 13 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- Book: Esther\n- Chapter: 9\n- Verse: 8", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Esther 9:8 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"And Phoratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Recite Isaiah 38:17", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Isaiah 38:17 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"Behold in peace is my bitterness most bitter: but thou hast delivered my soul that it should not perish, thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"Destroy all her valiant men, let them go down to the slaughter: woe to them, for their day is come, the time of their visitation.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Bible, the verse \"Destroy all her valiant men, let them go down to the slaughter: woe to them, for their day is come, the time of their visitation.\" can be found in the book of Jeremiah, chapter 50, verse 27 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book, chapter, and verse for \"The Lord said to Josue: Lift up the shield that is in thy hand, towards the city of Hai, for I will deliver it to thee.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"The Lord said to Josue: Lift up the shield that is in thy hand, towards the city of Hai, for I will deliver it to thee.\" appears in Joshua, chapter 8, at verse 18 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you read Joshua chapter 15, verse 47?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Joshua 15:47 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"Azotus with its towns and villages.

And his hand which he stretched forth against him withered: and he was not able to draw it back again to him.\n5 The altar also was rent, and the ashes were poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given before in the word of the Lord.\n6 And the king said to the man of God: Entreat the face of the Lord thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me. And the man of God besought the face of the Lord, and the king's hand was restored to him, and it became as it was before.\n7 And the king said to the man of God: Come home with me to dine, and I will make thee presents.\n8 And the man of God answered the king: If thou wouldst give me half thy house I will not go with thee, nor eat bread, nor drink water in this place:\n9 For so it was enjoined me by the word of the Lord commanding me: Thou shalt not eat bread nor drink water, nor return by the same way that thou camest.\n10 So he departed by another way, and returned not by the way that he came into Bethel.\n11 Now a certain old prophet dwelt in Bethel, and his sons came to him and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel: and they told their father the words which he had spoken to the king.\n12 And their father said to them: What way went he? His sons shewed him the way by which the man of God went, who came out of Juda.\n13 And he said to his sons: Saddle me the ass. And when they had saddled him, he got up,\n14 And went after the man of God, and found him sitting under a turpentine tree: and he said to him: Art thou the man of God that camest from Juda? He answered: I am.\n15 And he said to him: Come home with me, to eat bread.\n16 But he said: I must not return, nor go with thee, neither will I eat bread, nor drink water in this place:\n17 Because the Lord spoke to me in the word of the Lord, saying: Thou shalt not eat bread, and thou shalt not drink water there, nor return by the way thou wentest.\n18 He said to him: I also am a prophet like unto thee: and an angel spoke to me in the word of the Lord, saying: Bring him back with thee into thy house, that he may eat bread, and drink water. He deceived him,\n19 And brought him back with him: so he ate bread and drank water in his house.\n20 And as they sat at table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet that brought him back:\n21 And he cried out to the man of God who came out of Juda, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast not been obedient to the Lord, and hast not kept the commandment which the Lord thy God commanded thee,\n22 And hast returned and eaten bread, and drunk water in the place wherein he commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat bread, nor drink water, thy dead body shall not be brought into the sepulchre of thy fathers.\n23 And when he had eaten and drunk, he saddled his ass for the prophet, whom he had brought back.\n24 And when he was gone, a lion found him in the way, and killed him, and his body was cast in the way: and the ass stood by him, and the lion stood by the dead body.\n25 And behold, men passing by saw the dead body cast in the way, and the lion standing by the body. And they came and told it in the city, wherein that old prophet dwelt.\n26 And when that prophet, who had brought him back out of the way, heard of it, he said: It is the man of God, that was disobedient to the mouth of the Lord, and the Lord hath delivered him to the lion, and he hath torn him, and killed him according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke to him.\n27 And he said to his sons: Saddle me an ass. And when they had saddled it,\n28 And he was gone, he found the dead body cast in the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the carcass: the lion had not eaten of the dead body, nor hurt the ass.\n29 And the prophet took up the body of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and going back brought it into the city of the old prophet, to mourn for him.\n30 And he laid his dead body in his own sepulchre: and they mourned over him, saying: Alas! alas! my brother.\n31 And when they had mourned over him, he said to his sons: When I am dead, bury me in the sepulchre wherein the man of God is buried: lay my bones beside his bones.\n32 For assuredly the word shall come to pass which he hath foretold in the word of the Lord against the altar that is in Bethel: and against all the temples of the high places, that are in the cities of Samaria.\n33 After these words Jeroboam came not back from his wicked way: but on the contrary he made of the meanest of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he filled his hand, and he was made a priest of the high places.\n34 And for this cause did the house of Jeroboam sin, and was cut off and destroyed from the face of the earth.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book is the quote \"So Athenobius the king's friend came to Jerusalem, and saw the glory of Simon and his magnificence in gold, and silver, and his great equipage, and he was astonished, and told him the king's words.\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture \"So Athenobius the king's friend came to Jerusalem, and saw the glory of Simon and his magnificence in gold, and silver, and his great equipage, and he was astonished, and told him the king's words.\" is located in 1 Maccabees 15:32 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you provide the book, chapter, and verse for \"And the morrow after, he entered into Caesarea.

And one said to the other:\n13 Let us now go home, for it is dinner time. So going out they departed one from another.\n14 And turning back again, they came both to the same place: and asking one another the cause, they acknowledged their lust; and then they agreed upon a time, when they might find her alone.\n15 And it fell out, as they watched a fit day, she went in on a time, as yesterday and the day before, with two maids only, and was desirous to wash herself in the orchard: for it was hot weather.\n16 And there was nobody there, but the two old men that had hid themselves and were beholding her.\n17 So she said to the maids: Bring me oil, and washing balls, and shut the doors of the orchard, that I may wash me.\n18 And they did as she bade them: and they shut the doors of the orchard, and went out by a back door to fetch what she had commanded them, and they knew not that the elders were hid within.\n19 Now when the maids were gone forth, the two elders arose, and ran to her, and said:\n20 Behold the doors of the orchard are shut, and nobody seeth us, and we are in love with thee: wherefore consent to us, and lie with us.\n21 But if thou wilt not, we will bear witness against thee, that a young man was with thee, and therefore thou didst send away thy maids from thee.\n22 Susanna sighed, and said: I am straitened on every side: for if I do this thing, it is death to me: and if I do it not, I shall not escape your hands.\n23 But it is better for me to fall into your hands without doing it, than to sin in the sight of the Lord.\n24 With that Susanna cried out with a loud voice: and the elders also cried out against her.\n25 And one of them ran to the door of the orchard, and opened it.\n26 So when the servants of the house heard the cry in the orchard, they rushed in by the back door to see what was the matter.\n27 But after the old men had spoken, the servants were greatly ashamed: for never had there been any such word said of Susanna.

All things that are in the earth shall be consumed.\n18 And I will establish my covenant with thee, and thou shalt enter into the ark, thou and thy sons, and thy wife, and the wives of thy sons with thee.\n19 And of every living creature of all flesh, thou shalt bring two of a sort into the ark, that they may live with thee: of the male sex, and the female.\n20 Of fowls according to their kind, and of beasts in their kind, and of every thing that creepeth on the earth according to its kind; two of every sort shall go in with thee, that they may live.\n21 Thou shalt take unto thee of all food that may be eaten, and thou shalt lay it up with thee: and it shall be food for thee and them.\n22 And Noe did all things which God commanded him.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "In what book, at what chapter and verse, does \"For our God is a consuming fire.\" appear?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Bible, the verse \"For our God is a consuming fire.\" can be found in the book of Hebrews, chapter 12, verse 29 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Find and read Luke chapter 5, verse 5", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Luke 5:5 of the New Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"And Simon answering said to him: Master, we have labored all the night, and have taken nothing: but at thy word I will let down the net.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Verse 15 from chapter 9 in Luke?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The New Testament\nLuke 9:15 (Douay Rheims)\n\"And they did so; and made them all sit down.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"But he strictly charging them, commanded they should tell this to no man.\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That one's from Luke, chapter 9.\n\nHere's the chapter it's part of:\nLuke Chapter 9\n1 Then calling together the twelve apostles, he gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.\n2 And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.\n3 And he said to them: Take nothing for your journey; neither staff, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats.\n4 And whatsoever house you shall enter into, abide there, and depart not from thence.\n5 And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off even the dust of your feet, for a testimony against them.\n6 And going out, they went about through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing everywhere.\n7 Now Herod, the tetrarch, heard of all things that were done by him; and he was in a doubt, because it was said\n8 By some, that John was risen from the dead: but by other some, that Elias had appeared; and by others, that one of the old prophets was risen again.\n9 And Herod said: John I have beheaded; but who is this of whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.\n10 And the apostles, when they were returned, told him all they had done. And taking them, he went aside into a desert place, apart, which belongeth to Bethsaida.\n11 Which when the people knew, they followed him; and he received them, and spoke to them of the kingdom of God, and healed them who had need of healing.\n12 Now the day began to decline. And the twelve came and said to him: Send away the multitude, that going into the towns and villages round about, they may lodge and get victuals; for we are here in a desert place.\n13 But he said to them: Give you them to eat. And they said: We have no more than five loaves and two fishes; unless perhaps we should go and buy food for all this multitude.\n14 Now there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples: Make them sit down by fifties in a company.\n15 And they did so; and made them all sit down.\n16 And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed them; and he broke, and distributed to his disciples, to set before the multitude.\n17 And they did all eat, and were filled. And there were taken up of fragments that remained to them, twelve baskets.\n18 And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples also were with him: and he asked them, saying: Whom do the people say that I am?\n19 But they answered, and said: John the Baptist; but some say Elias; and others say that one of the former prophets is risen again.\n20 And he said to them: But whom do you say that I am? Simon Peter answering, said: The Christ of God.\n21 But he strictly charging them, commanded they should tell this to no man.\n22 Saying: The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the ancients and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day rise again.\n23 And he said to all: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.\n24 For whosoever will save his life, shall lose it; for he that shall lose his life for my sake, shall save it.\n25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, and cast away himself?\n26 For he that shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him the Son of man shall be ashamed, when he shall come in his majesty, and that of his Father, and of the holy angels.\n27 But I tell you of a truth: There are some standing here that shall not taste death, till they see the kingdom of God.\n28 And it came to pass about eight days after these words, that he took Peter, and James, and John, and went up into a mountain to pray.\n29 And whilst he prayed, the shape of his countenance was altered, and his raiment became white and glittering.\n30 And behold two men were talking with him. And they were Moses and Elias,\n31 Appearing in majesty. And they spoke of his decease that he should accomplish in Jerusalem.\n32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep. And waking, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.\n33 And it came to pass, that as they were departing from him, Peter saith to Jesus: Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias; not knowing what he said.\n34 And as he spoke these things, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them; and they were afraid, when they entered into the cloud.\n35 And a voice came out of the cloud, saying: This is my beloved Son; hear him.\n36 And whilst the voice was uttered, Jesus was found alone. And they held their peace, and told no man in those days any of these things which they had seen.\n37 And it came to pass the day following, when they came down from the mountain, there met him a great multitude.\n38 And behold a man among the crowd cried out, saying: Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son, because he is my only one.\n39 And lo, a spirit seizeth him, and he suddenly crieth out, and he throweth him down and teareth him, so that he foameth; and bruising him, he hardly departeth from him.\n40 And I desired thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not.\n41 And Jesus answering, said: O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring hither thy son.\n42 And as he was coming to him, the devil threw him down, and tore him.\n43 And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and cured the boy, and restored him to his father.\n44 And all were astonished at the mighty power of God. But while all wondered at all the things he did, he said to his disciples: Lay you up in your hearts these words, for it shall come to pass, that the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.\n45 But they understood not this word; and it was hid from them, so that they perceived it not. And they were afraid to ask him concerning this word.\n46 And there entered a thought into them, which of them should be greater.\n47 But Jesus seeing the thoughts of their heart, took a child and set him by him,\n48 And said to them: Whosoever shall receive this child in my name, receiveth me; and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth him that sent me. For he that is the lesser among you all, he is the greater.\n49 And John, answering, said: Master, we saw a certain man casting out devils in thy name, and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us.\n50 And Jesus said to him: Forbid him not; for he that is not against you, is for you.\n51 And it came to pass, when the days of his assumption were accomplishing, that he steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem.\n52 And he sent messengers before his face; and going, they entered into a city of the Samaritans, to prepare for him.\n53 And they received him not, because his face was of one going to Jerusalem.\n54 And when his disciples James and John had seen this, they said: Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them?\n55 And turning, he rebuked them, saying: You know not of what spirit you are.\n56 The Son of man came not to destroy souls, but to save. And they went into another town.\n57 And it came to pass, as they walked in the way, that a certain man said to him: I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.\n58 Jesus said to him: The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.\n59 But he said to another: Follow me. And he said: Lord, suffer me first to go, and to bury my father.\n60 And Jesus said to him: Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou, and preach the kingdom of God.\n61 And another said: I will follow thee, Lord; but let me first take my leave of them that are at my house.\n62 Jesus said to him: No man putting his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book, chapter, and verse is \"But the whole multitude together cried out, saying: Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas:\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Bible, the verse \"But the whole multitude together cried out, saying: Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas:\" can be found in the book of Luke, chapter 23, verse 18 in the New Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Do you know the book and chapter where \"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:\" is found?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from Mark, chapter 15.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\nMark Chapter 15\n1 And straightway in the morning, the chief priests holding a consultation with the ancients and the scribes and the whole council, binding Jesus, led him away, and delivered him to Pilate.\n2 And Pilate asked him: Art thou the king of the Jews?

But they cried out the more: Crucify him.\n15 And so Pilate being willing to satisfy the people, released to them Barabbas, and delivered up Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.\n16 And the soldiers led him away into the court of the palace, and they called together the whole band:\n17 And they clothe him with purple, and platting a crown of thorns, they put it upon him.\n18 And they began to salute him: Hail, king of the Jews.\n19 And they struck his head with a reed: and they did spit on him. 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?

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.

And when she heard it she was in a consternation: and she sent a garment, to clothe him, and to take away the sackcloth: but he would not receive it.\n5 And she called for Athach the eunuch, whom the king had appointed to attend upon her, and she commanded him to go to Mardochai, and learn of him why he did this.\n6 And Athach going out went to Mardochai, who was standing in the street of the city, before the palace gate:\n7 And Mardochai told him all that had happened, how Aman had promised to pay money into the king's treasures, to have the Jews destroyed.\n8 He gave him also a copy of the edict which was hanging up in Susan, that he should shew it to the queen, and admonish her to go in to the king, and to entreat him for her people.\n9 And Athach went back and told Esther all that Mardochai had said.\n10 She answered him, and bade him say to Mardochai:\n11 All the king's servants, and all the provinces that are under his dominion, know, that whosoever, whether man or woman, cometh into the king's inner court, who is not called for, is immediately to be put to death without any delay: except the king shall hold out the golden sceptre to him, in token of clemency, that so he may live. How then can I go in to the king, who for these thirty days now have not been called unto him?\n12 And when Mardochai had heard this,\n13 He sent word to Esther again, saying: Think not that thou mayst save thy life only, because thou art in the king a house, more than all the Jews:\n14 For if thou wilt now hold thy peace, the Jews shall be delivered by some other occasion: and thou, and thy father's house shall perish. And who knoweth whether thou art not therefore come to the kingdom, that thou mightest be ready in such a time as this?\n15 And again Esther sent to Mardochai in these words:\n16 Go, and gather together all the Jews whom thou shalt find in Susan, and pray ye for me. Neither eat nor drink for three days and three nights: and I with my handmaids will fast in like manner, and then I will go in to the king, against the law, not being called, and expose myself to death and to danger.\n17 So Mardochai went, and did all that Esther had commanded him.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "I need the text of Esther 14:4", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Esther 14:4, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"My danger is in my hands.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"And it shall come to pass in that day, that the glory of Jacob shall be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh shall grow lean.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from Isaiah, chapter 17.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\nIsaiah Chapter 17\n1 The burden of Damascus.

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.

But if thou canst do any thing, help us, having compassion on us.\n22 And Jesus saith to him: If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.\n23 And immediately the father of the boy crying out, with tears said: I do believe, Lord: help my unbelief.\n24 And when Jesus saw the multitude running together, he threatened the unclean spirit, saying to him: Deaf and dumb spirit, I command thee, go out of him; and enter not any more into him.\n25 And crying out, and greatly tearing him, he went out of him, and he became as dead, so that many said: He is dead.\n26 But Jesus taking him by the hand, lifted him up; and he arose.\n27 And when he was come into the house, his disciples secretly asked him: Why could not we cast him out?\n28 And he said to them: This kind can go out by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.\n29 And departing from thence, they passed through Galilee, and he would not that any man should know it.\n30 And he taught his disciples, and said to them: The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise again the third day.\n31 But they understood not the word, and they were afraid to ask him.\n32 And they came to Capharnaum. And when they were in the house, he asked them: What did you treat of in the way?\n33 But they held their peace, for in the way they had disputed among themselves, which of them should be the greatest.\n34 And sitting down, he called the twelve, and saith to them: If any man desire to be first, he shall be the last of all, and the minister of all.\n35 And taking a child, he set him in the midst of them. Whom when he had embraced, he saith to them:\n36 Whosoever shall receive one such child as this in my name, receiveth me. And whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.\n37 John answered him, saying: Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, who followeth not us, and we forbade him.\n38 But Jesus said: Do not forbid him. For there is no man that doth a miracle in my name, and can soon speak ill of me.\n39 For he that is not against you, is for you.\n40 For whosoever shall give you to drink a cup of water in my name, because you belong to Christ: amen I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.\n41 And whosoever shall scandalize one of these little ones that believe in me; it were better for him that a millstone were hanged around his neck, and he were cast into the sea.\n42 And if thy hand scandalize thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life, maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into unquenchable fire:\n43 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.\n44 And if thy foot scandalize thee, cut it off. It is better for thee to enter lame into life everlasting, than having two feet, to be cast into the hell of unquenchable fire:\n45 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.\n46 And if thy eye scandalize thee, pluck it out. It is better for thee with one eye to enter into the kingdom of God, than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire:\n47 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.\n48 For every one shall be salted with fire: and every victim shall be salted with salt.\n49 Salt is good. But if the salt became unsavoury; wherewith will you season it? Have salt in you, and have peace among you.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the bible does it say \"And wine for libations of the same measure, for an offering of most sweet savour to the Lord.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The passage \"And wine for libations of the same measure, for an offering of most sweet savour to the Lord.\" comes from Numbers 15:10 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Recite Psalm 20:5", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The scripture from the Old Testament at Psalm 20:5 (Douay Rheims) is:\n\"He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you quote Psalm 72:4 for me?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Psalm 72:4, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"For there is no regard to their death, nor is there strength in their stripes.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where exactly in the Bible is \"And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle: and on their heads were, as it were, crowns like gold: and their faces were as the faces of men.\" written?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the New Testament, the book of Revelation, chapter 9, verse 7 states: \"And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle: and on their heads were, as it were, crowns like gold: and their faces were as the faces of men.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"For I am not ashamed of the gospel.

Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.\n8 First I give thanks to my God, through Jesus Christ, for you all, because your faith is spoken of in the whole world.\n9 For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make a commemoration of you;\n10 Always in my prayers making request, if by any means now at length I may have a prosperous journey, by the will of God, to come unto you.\n11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual grace, to strengthen you:\n12 That is to say, that I may be comforted together in you, by that which is common to us both, your faith and mine.\n13 And I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that I have often purposed to come unto you, (and have been hindered hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.\n14 To the Greeks and to the barbarians, to the wise and to the unwise, I am a debtor;\n15 So (as much as is in me) I am ready to preach the gospel to you also that are at Rome.\n16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel.

For God hath manifested it unto them.\n20 For the invisible things of him, from the creation of the world, are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made; his eternal power also, and divinity: so that they are inexcusable.\n21 Because that, when they knew God, they have not glorified him as God, or given thanks; but became vain in their thoughts, and their foolish heart was darkened.\n22 For professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.\n23 And they changed the glory of the incorruptible God into the likeness of the image of a corruptible man, and of birds, and of fourfooted beasts, and of creeping things.\n24 Wherefore God gave them up to the desires of their heart, unto uncleanness, to dishonour their own bodies among themselves.\n25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie; and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever.

Here it is:\n1 Kings Chapter 7\n1 And Solomon built his own house in thirteen years, and brought it to perfection.\n2 He built also the house of the forest of Libanus, the length of it was a hundred cubits, and the breadth fifty cubits, and the height thirty cubits: and four galleries between pillars of cedar: for he had cut cedar trees into pillars.\n3 And he covered the whole vault with boards of cedar, and it was held up with five and forty pillars. 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.\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. All the vessels that Hiram made for king Solomon for the house of the Lord, were of fine brass.\n46 In the plains of the Jordan did the king cast them in a clay ground, between Socoth and Sartham.\n47 And Solomon placed all the vessels: but for exceeding great multitude the brass could not be weighed.\n48 And Solomon made all the vessels for the house of the Lord: the altar of gold, and the table of gold, upon which the leaves of proposition should be set:\n49 And the golden candlesticks, five on the right hand, and five on the left, over against the oracle, of pure gold: and the flowers like lilies, and the lamps over them of gold: and golden snuffers,\n50 And pots, and fleshhooks, and bowls, and mortars, and censers, of most pure gold: and the hinges for the doors of the inner house of the holy of holies, and for the doors of the house of the temple were of gold.\n51 And Solomon finished all the work that he made in the house of the Lord, and brought in the things that David his father had dedicated, the silver and the gold, and the vessels, and laid them up in the treasures of the house of the Lord.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- Book: 2 Chronicles\n- Chapter: 2\n- Verse: 4", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from 2 Chronicles 2:4, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"So do with me that I may build a house to the name of the Lord my God, to dedicate it to burn incense before him, and to perfume with aromatical spices, and for the continual setting forth of bread, and for the holocausts, morning and evening, and on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and the solemnities of the Lord our God for ever, which are commanded for Israel.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "2 Kings 15:1 please", "role": "user" }, { "content": "2 Kings 15:1 from the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) reads:\n\"In the seven and twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel reigned Azarias son of Amasias, king of Juda.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you read 2 Samuel chapter 21, verse 5?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in 2 Samuel 21:5 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"And they said to the king: The man that crushed us and oppressed us unjustly, we must destroy in such manner that there be not so much as one left of his stock in all the coasts of Israel.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"For in him were all things created in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones, or dominations, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him and in him.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from Colossians, chapter 1.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\nColossians Chapter 1\n1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, and Timothy, a brother,\n2 To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ Jesus, who are at Colossa.\n3 Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

upon her on every side in the day of her affliction.\n3 Let not him that bendeth, bend his bow, and let not, him go up that is armed with a coat of mail: spare not her young men, destroy all her army.\n4 And the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans, and the wounded in the regions thereof.\n5 For Israel and Juda have not been forsaken by their God the Lord of hosts: but their land hath been filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel.\n6 Flee ye from the midst of Babylon, and let every one save his own life: be not silent upon her iniquity: for it is the time of revenge from the Lord, he will I render unto her what she hath deserved.\n7 Babylon hath been a golden cup in the hand of the Lord, that made all the earth drunk: the nations have drunk of her wine, and therefore they have staggered.\n8 Babylon is suddenly fallen, and destroyed: howl for her, take balm for her pain, if so she may be healed.\n9 We would have cured Babylon, but she is not healed: let us forsake her, and let us go every man to his own land: because her judgment hath reached even to the heavens, and is lifted up to the clouds.\n10 The Lord hath brought forth our justices: Come, and let us declare in Sion the work of the Lord our God.\n11 Sharpen the arrows, fill the quivers, the Lord hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: and his mind is against Babylon to destroy it, because it is the vengeance of the Lord, the vengeance of his temple.\n12 Upon the walls of Babylon set up the standard, strengthen the watch: set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the Lord hath both purposed, and done all that he spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon.\n13 O thou that dwellest upon many waters, rich in treasures, thy end is come for thy entire destruction.\n14 The

mountains, and in dens like wild beasts.\n7 Therefore they now, carried boughs, and green branches, and palms for Him that had given them good success in cleansing his place.\n8 And they ordained by a common statute, and decree, that all the nation of the Jews should keep those days every year.\n9 And this was the end of Antiochus that was called the Illustrious.\n10 But now we will relate the acts of Eupator the son of that wicked Antiochus, abridging the account of the evils that happened in the wars.\n11 For when he was come to the crown, he appointed over the affairs of his realm one Lysias, general of the army of Phenicia and Syria.\n12 For Ptolemee that was called Macer, was determined to be strictly just to the Jews, and especially by reason of the wrong that had been done them, and to deal peaceably with them.\n13 But being accused for this to Eupator by his friends, and being oftentimes called traitor, because he had left Cyprus which Philometor had committed to him, and coming over to Antiochus the Illustrious, had revolted also from him, he put an end to his life by poison.\n14 But Gorgias, who was governor of the holds, taking with him the strangers, often fought against the Jews.\n15 And the Jews that occupied the most commodious hold, received those that were driven out of Jerusalem, and attempted to make war.\n16 Then they that were with Machabeus, beseeching the Lord by prayers to be their helper, made a strong attack upon the strong holds of the Idumeans:\n17 And assaulting them with great force, won the holds, killed them that came in the way, and slew altogether no fewer than twenty thousand.\n18 And whereas some were fled into very strong towers, having all manner of provision to sustain a siege,\n19 Machabeus left Simon and Joseph, and Zacheus, and them that were with them in sufficient number to besiege them, and departed to those expeditions which urged more.\n20 Now they that were with Simon, being led with covetousness, were persuaded for the sake of money by some that were in the towers: and taking seventy thousand didrachmas, let some of them escape.\n21 But when it was told Machabeus what was done, he assembled the rulers of the people, and accused those men that they had sold their brethren for money, having let their adversaries escape.\n22 So he put these traitors to death, and forthwith took the two towers.\n23 And having good success in arms and in all things he took in hand, he slew more than twenty thousand in the two holds.\n24 But Timotheus who before had been overcome by the Jews, having called together a multitude of foreign troops, and assembled horsemen out of Asia, came as though he would take Judea by force of arms.\n25 But Machabeus and they that were with him, when he drew near, prayed to the Lord, sprinkling earth upon their heads and girding their loins with haircloth,\n26 And lying prostrate at the foot of the altar, besought him to be merciful to them, and to be an enemy to their enemies, and an adversary to their adversaries, as the law saith.\n27 And so after prayer taking their arms, they went forth further from the city, and when they were come very near the enemies they rested.\n28 But as soon as the sun was risen both sides joined battle: the one part having with their valour the Lord for a surety of victory and success: but the other side making their rage their leader in battle.\n29 But when they were in the heat of the engagement there appeared to the enemies from heaven five men upon horses, comely with golden bridles, conducting the Jews:\n30 Two of whom took Machabeus between them, and covered him on every side with their arms, and kept him safe: but cast darts and fireballs against the enemy, so that they fell down, being both confounded with blindness, and filled with trouble.\n31 And there were slain twenty thousand five hundred, and six hundred horsemen.\n32 But Timotheus fled into Gazara a strong hold, where Chereas was governor.\n33 Then Machabeus, and they that were with him, cheerfully laid siege to the fortress four days.\n34 But they that were within, trusting to the strength of the place, blasphemed exceedingly, and cast forth abominable words.\n35 But when the fifth day appeared, twenty young men of them that were with Machabeus, inflamed in their minds because of the blasphemy, approached manfully to the wall, and pushing forward with fierce courage got up upon it.\n36 Moreover others also getting up after them, went to set fire to the towers and the gates, and to burn the blasphemers alive.\n37 And having for two days together pillaged and sacked the fortress, they killed Timotheus, who was found hid in a certain place: they slew also his brother Chereas, and Apollophanes.\n38 And when this was done, they blessed the Lord with hymns and thanksgiving, who had done great things in Israel, and given them the victory.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Could you pinpoint the book and chapter of \"And

multitude both of the Jews and of the Greeks did believe.\n2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up and incensed the minds of the Gentiles against the brethren.\n3 A long time therefore they abode there, dealing confidently in the Lord, who gave testimony to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.\n4 And the multitude of the city was divided; and some of them indeed held with the Jews, but some with the apostles.\n5 And when there was an assault made by the Gentiles and the Jews with their rulers, to use them contumeliously, and to stone them:\n6 They understanding it, fled to Lystra, and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the whole country round about, and were there preaching the gospel.\n7 And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked.\n8 This same heard Paul speaking. Who looking upon him, and seeing that he had faith to be healed,\n9 Said with a loud voice: Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped up, and walked.\n10 And when the multitudes had seen what Paul had done, they lifted up their voice in the Lycaonian tongue, saying: The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men;\n11 And they called Barnabas, Jupiter: but Paul, Mercury; because he was chief speaker.\n12 The priest also of Jupiter that was before the city, bringing oxen and garlands before the gate, would have offered sacrifice with the people.\n13 Which, when the apostles Barnabas and Paul had heard, rending their clothes, they leaped out among the people, crying,\n14 And saying: Ye men, why do ye these things? We also are mortals, men like unto you, preaching to you to be converted from these vain things, to the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all things that are in them:\n15 Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.\n16 Nevertheless he left not himself without testimony, doing good from heaven, giving rains and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.\n17 And speaking these things, they scarce restrained the people from sacrificing to them.\n18 Now there came thither certain Jews from Antioch, and Iconium: and persuading the multitude, and stoning Paul, drew him out of the city, thinking him to be dead.\n19 But as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up and entered into the city, and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.\n20 And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch:\n21 Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith: and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God.\n22 And when they had ordained to them priests in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, in whom they believed.\n23 And passing through Pisidia, they came into Pamphylia.\n24 And having spoken the word of the Lord in Perge, they went down into Attalia:\n25 And thence they sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been delivered to the grace of God, unto the work which they accomplished.\n26 And when they were come, and had

twelve.\n4 And he went, and discoursed with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might betray him to them.\n5 And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.\n6 And he promised. 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. 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?

And the king answered them, saying: The word is true according to the decree of the Medes and Persians, which it is not lawful to violate.\n13 Then they answered, and said before the king: Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Juda, hath not regarded thy law, nor the decree that thou hast made: but three times a day he maketh his prayer.\n14 Now when the king had heard these words, he was very much grieved, and in behalf of Daniel he set his heart to deliver him and even till sunset he laboured to save him.\n15 But those men perceiving the king's design, said to him: Know thou, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, that no decree which the king hath made, may be altered.\n16 Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of the lions. And the king said to Daniel: Thy God, whom thou always servest, he will deliver thee.\n17 And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den: which the king sealed with his own ring, and with the ring of his nobles, that nothing should be done against Daniel.\n18 And the king went away to his house and laid himself down without taking supper, and meat was not set before him, and even sleep departed from him.\n19 Then the king rising very early in the morning, went in haste to the lions' den:\n20 And coming near to the den, cried with a lamentable voice to Daniel, and said to him: Daniel, servant of the living God, hath thy God, whom thou servest always, been able, thinkest thou, to deliver thee from the lions?\n21 And Daniel answering the king, said: O king, live for ever:\n22 My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut up the mouths of the lions, and they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him justice hath been found in me: yea and before thee, O king, I have done no offence.\n23 Then was the king exceeding glad for him, and he commanded that Daniel should be taken out of the den: and Daniel was taken out of the den, and no hurt was found in him, because he believed in his God.\n24 And by the king's commandment, those men were brought that had accused Daniel: and they were cast into the lions' den, they and their children, and their wives: and they did not reach the bottom of the den, before the lions caught them, and broke all their bones in pieces.\n25 Then king Darius wrote to all people, tribes, and languages, dwelling in the whole earth: PEACE be multiplied unto you.\n26 It is decreed by me, that in all my empire and my kingdom all men dread and fear the God of Daniel.

And they had John also in the ministry.\n6 And when they had gone through the whole island, as far as Paphos, they found a certain man, a magician, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesu:\n7 Who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, a prudent man. He sending for Barnabas and Saul, desired to hear the word of God.\n8 But Elymas the magician (for so his name is interpreted) withstood them, seeking to turn away the proconsul from the faith.\n9 Then Saul, otherwise Paul, filled with the Holy Ghost, looking upon him,\n10 Said: O full of all guile, and of all deceit, child of the devil, enemy of all justice, thou ceasest not to pervert the right ways of the Lord.\n11 And now behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a time. And immediately there fell a mist and darkness upon him, and going about, he sought some one to lead him by the hand.\n12 Then the proconsul, when he had seen what was done, believed, admiring at the doctrine of the Lord.\n13 Now when Paul and they that were with him had sailed from Paphos, they came to Perge in Pamphylia. And John departing from them, returned to Jerusalem.\n14 But they passing through Perge, came to Antioch in Pisidia: and entering into the synagogue on the sabbath day, they sat down.\n15 And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying: Ye men, brethren, if you have any word of exhortation to make to the people, speak.\n16 Then Paul rising up, and with his hand bespeaking silence, said: Ye men of Israel, and you that fear God, give ear.\n17 The God of the people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they were sojourners in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought them out from thence,\n18 And for the space of forty years endured their manners in the desert.\n19 And destroying seven nations in the land of Chanaan, divided their land among them, by lot,\n20 As it were, after four hundred and fifty years: and after these things, he gave unto them judges, until Samuel the prophet.\n21 And after that they desired a king: and God gave them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, forty years.\n22 And when he had removed him, he raised them up David to be king: to whom giving testimony, he said: I have found David, the son of Jesse, a man according to my own heart, who shall do all my wills.\n23 Of this man's seed God according to his promise, hath raised up to Israel a Saviour, Jesus:\n24 John first preaching, before his coming, the baptism of penance to all the people of Israel.\n25 And when John was fulfilling his course, he said: I am not he, whom you think me to be: but behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.\n26 Men, brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you fear God, to you the word of this salvation is sent.\n27 For they that inhabited Jerusalem, and the rulers thereof, not knowing him, nor the voices of the prophets, which are read every sabbath, judging him have fulfilled them.\n28 And finding no cause of death in him, they desired of Pilate, that they might kill him.\n29 And when they had fulfilled all things that were written of him, taking him down from the tree, they laid him in a sepulchre.\n30 But God raised him up from the dead the third day:\n31 Who was seen for many days, by them who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who to this present are his witnesses to the people.\n32 And we declare unto you, that the promise which was made to our fathers,\n33 This same God hath fulfilled to our children, raising up Jesus, as in the second psalm also is written: Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.\n34 And to shew that he raised him up from the dead, not to return now any more to corruption, he said thus: I will give you the holy things of David faithful.\n35 And therefore, in another place also, he saith: Thou shalt not suffer thy holy one to see corruption.\n36 For David, when he had served in his generation, according to the will of God, slept: and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption.\n37 But he whom God hath raised from the dead, saw no corruption.\n38 Be it known therefore to you, men, brethren, that through him forgiveness of sins is preached to you: and from all the things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.\n39 In him every one that believeth, is justified.\n40 Beware, therefore, lest that come upon you which is spoken in the prophets:\n41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which you will not believe, if any man shall tell it you.\n42 And as they went out, they desired them, that on the next sabbath, they would speak unto them these words.\n43 And when the synagogue was broken up, many of the Jews, and of the strangers who served God, followed Paul and Barnabas: who speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.\n44 But the next sabbath day, the whole city almost came together, to hear the word of God.\n45 And the Jews seeing the multitudes, were filled with envy, and contradicted those things which were said by Paul, blaspheming.\n46 Then Paul and Barnabas said boldly: To you it behoved us first to speak the word of God: but because you reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold we turn to the Gentiles.\n47 For so the Lord hath commanded us: I have set thee to be the light of the Gentiles; that thou mayest be for salvation unto the utmost part of the earth.\n48 And the Gentiles hearing it, were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to life everlasting, believed.\n49 And the word of the Lord was published throughout the whole country.\n50 But the Jews stirred up religious and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas: and cast them out of their coasts.\n51 But they, shaking off the dust of their feet against them, came to Iconium.\n52 And the disciples were

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

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. But they that sought them, when they found them not, returned into Jerusalem.\n21 And when they were gone, they came up out of the well, and going on told king David, and said: Arise, and pass quickly over the river: for this manner of counsel has Achitophel given against you.\n22 So David arose, and all the people that were with him, and they passed over the Jordan, until it grew light, and not one of them was left that was not gone over the river.\n23 But Achitophel seeing that his counsel was not followed, saddled his ass, and arose and went home to his house and to his city, and putting his house in order, hanged himself, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father.\n24 But David came to the camp, and Absalom passed over the Jordan, be and all the men of Israel with him.\n25 Now Absalom appointed Amasa in Joab's stead over the army: and Amasa was the son of a man who was called Jethra of Jezrael, who went in to Abigail the daughter of Naas, the sister of Sarvia who was the mother of Joab.\n26 And Israel camped with Absalom in the land of Galaad.\n27 And when David was come to the camp, Sobi the son of Naas of Rabbath of the children of Ammon, and Machir the son of Ammihel of Lodabar, and Berzellai the Galaadite of Rogelim,\n28 Brought him beds, and tapestry, and earthen vessels, and wheat, and barley, and meal, and parched corn, and beans, and lentils, and fried pulse,\n29 And honey, and butter, and sheep, and fat calves, and they gave to David and the people that were with him, to eat: for they suspected that the people were faint with hunger and thirst in the wilderness.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"Take ye then good heed that you stir not against them.

But the Moabites call them Emims.\n12 The Horrhites also formerly dwelt in Seir: who being driven out and destroyed, the children of Esau dwelt there, as Israel did in the land of his possession, which the Lord gave him.\n13 Then rising up to pass the torrent Zared, we came to it.\n14 And the time that we journeyed from Cadesbarne till we passed over the torrent Zared, was thirty-eight years: until all the generation of the men that were fit for war was consumed out of the camp, as the Lord had sworn:\n15 For his hand was against them, that they should perish from the midst of the camp.\n16 And after all the fighting men were dead,\n17 The Lord spoke to me, saying:\n18 Thou shalt pass this day the borders of Moab, the city named Ar:\n19 And when thou comest nigh the frontiers of the children of Ammon, take heed thou fight not against them, nor once move to battle: for I will not give thee of the land of the children of Ammon, because I have given it to the children of Lot for a possession.\n20 It was accounted a land of giants: and giants formerly dwelt in it, whom the Ammonites call Zomzommims,\n21 A people great and many, and of tall stature, like the Enacims whom the Lord destroyed before their face: and he made them to dwell in their stead,\n22 As he had done in favour of the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir, destroying the Horrhites, and delivering their land to them, which they possess to this day.\n23 The Hevites also, that dwelt in Haserim as far as Gaza, were expelled by the Cappadocians: who came out of Cappadocia, and destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead.\n24 Arise ye, and pass the torrent Arnon: Behold I have delivered into thy hand Sehon king of Hesebon the Amorrhite, and begin thou to possess his land and make war against him.\n25 This day will I begin to send the dread and fear of thee upon the nations that dwell under the whole heaven: that when they hear thy name they may fear and tremble, and be in pain like women in travail.\n26 So I sent messengers from the wilderness of Cademoth to Sehon the king of Hesebon with peaceable words, saying:\n27 We will pass through thy land, we will go along by the highway: we will not turn aside neither to the right hand nor to the left.\n28 Sell us meat for money, that we may eat: give us water for money and so we will drink.

And others said: No, but he seduceth the people.\n13 Yet no man spoke openly of him, for fear of the Jews.\n14 Now about the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.\n15 And the Jews wondered, saying: How doth this man know letters, having never learned?\n16 Jesus answered them, and said: My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.\n17 If any man do the will of him; he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.\n18 He that speaketh of himself, seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and there is no injustice in him.\n19 Did Moses not give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law?\n20 Why seek you to kill me? The multitude answered, and said: Thou hast a devil; who seeketh to kill thee?\n21 Jesus answered, and said to them: One work I have done; and you all wonder:\n22 Therefore, Moses gave you circumcision (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and on the sabbath day you circumcise a man.\n23 If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath day, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are you angry at me because I have healed the whole man on the sabbath day?\n24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge just judgment.\n25 Some therefore of Jerusalem said: Is not this he whom they seek to kill?\n26 And behold, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him. 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?

"That verse comes from 1 Kings, chapter 8.\n\nCheck out the whole chapter:\n1 Kings Chapter 8\n1 Then all the ancients of Israel with the princes of the tribes, and the heads of the families of the children of Israel were assembled to king Solomon in Jerusalem: that they might carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, that is, out of Sion.\n2 And all Israel assembled themselves to king Solomon on the festival day in the month of Ethanim, the same is the seventh month.\n3 And all the ancients of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark,\n4 And carried the ark of the Lord, and the tabernacle of the covenant, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, that were in the tabernacle: and the priests and the Levites carried them.\n5 And king Solomon, and all the multitude of Israel, that were assembled unto him went with him before the ark, and they sacrificed sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered.\n6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, into the oracle of the temple, into the holy of holies under the wings of the cherubims.\n7 For the cherubims spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and covered the art, and the staves thereof above.\n8 And whereas the staves stood out, the ends of them were seen without in the sanctuary before the oracle, but were not seen farther out, and there they have been unto this day.\n9 Now in the ark there was nothing else but the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the sanctuary, that a cloud filled the house of the Lord,\n11 And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of the Lord.\n12 Then Solomon said: The Lord said that he would dwell in a cloud.\n13 Building I have built a house for thy dwelling, to be thy most firm throne for ever.\n14 And the king turned his face, and blessed all the assembly of Israel: for all the assembly of Israel stood.\n15 And Solomon said: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father, and with his own hands hath accomplished it, saying:\n16 Since the day that I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel, for a house to be built, that my name might be there: but I chose David to be over my people Israel.\n17 And David my father would have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel:\n18 And the Lord said to David my father: Whereas thou hast thought in thy heart to build a house to my name, thou hast done well in having this same thing in thy mind.\n19 Nevertheless thou shalt not build me a house, but thy son, that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build a house to my name.\n20 The Lord hath performed his word which he spoke: and I stand in the room of David my father, and sit upon the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised: and have built a house to the name of the Lord the God of Israel.\n21 And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of the Lord, which he made with our fathers, when they came out of the land of Egypt.\n22 And Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in the sight of the assembly of Israel, and spread forth his hands towards heaven;\n23 And said: Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heaven above, or on earth beneath: who keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that have walked before thee with all their heart.\n24 Who hast kept with thy servant David my father what thou hast promised him: with thy mouth thou didst speak, and with thy hands thou hast performed, as this day proveth.\n25 Now therefore, O Lord God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father what thou hast spoken to him, saying: There shall not be taken away of thee a man in my sight, to sit on the throne of Israel: yet so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked in my sight.\n26 And now, Lord God of Israel, let thy words be established, which thou hast spoken to thy servant David my father.\n27 Is it then to be thought that God should indeed dwell upon earth? for if heaven, and the heavens of heavens cannot contain thee, how much less this house which I have built?\n28 But have regard to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, O Lord my God: hear the hymn and the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee this day:\n29 That thy eyes may be open upon this house night and day: upon the house of which thou hast said: My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth in this place to thee.\n30 That thou mayest hearken to the supplication of thy servant and of thy people Israel, whatsoever they shall pray for in this place, and hear them in the place of thy dwelling in heaven; and when thou hearest, shew them mercy.\n31 If any man trespass against his neighbour, and have an oath upon him, wherewith he is bound: and come because of the oath before thy altar to thy house,\n32 Then hear thou in heaven: and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, and bringing his way upon his own head, and justifying the just, and rewarding him according to his justice.\n33 If thy people Israel shall fly before their enemies, (because they will sin against thee,) and doing penance, and confessing to thy name, shall come, and pray, and make supplications to thee in this house:\n34 Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them back to the land which thou gavest to their fathers.\n35 If heaven shall be shut up, and there shall be no rain, because of their sins, and they praying in this place, shall do penance to thy name, and shall be converted from their sins, by occasion of their afflictions:\n36 Then hear thou them in heaven, and forgive the sins of thy servants, and of thy people Israel: and shew them the good way wherein they should walk, and give rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people in possession.\n37 If a famine arise in the land, or a pestilence, or corrupt air, or blasting, or locust, or mildew, if their enemy afflict them besieging the gates, whatsoever plague, whatsoever infirmity,\n38 Whatsoever curse or imprecation shall happen to any man of thy people Israel: when a man shall know the wound of his own heart, and shall spread forth his hands in this house,\n39 Then hear thou in heaven, in the place of thy dwelling, and forgive, and do so as to give to every one according to his ways, as thou shalt see his heart (for thou only knowest the heart of all the children of men)\n40 That they may fear thee all the days that they live upon the face of the land, which thou hast given to our fathers.\n41 Moreover also the stranger, who is not of thy people Israel, when he shall come out of a far country for thy name's sake, (for they shall hear everywhere of thy great name and thy mighty hand,\n42 And thy stretched out arm,) so when he shall come, and shall pray in this place,\n43 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy dwelling place, and do all those things, for which that stranger shall call upon thee: that all the people of the earth may learn to fear thy name, as do thy people Israel, and may prove that thy name is called upon on this house, which I have built.\n44 If thy people go out to war against their enemies, by what way soever thou shalt send them, they shall pray to thee towards the way of the city, which thou hast chosen, and towards the house, which I have built to thy name:\n45 And then hear thou in heaven their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them.\n46 But if they sin against thee (for there is no man who sinneth not) and thou being angry deliver them up to their enemies, so that they be led away captives into the land of their enemies far or near;\n47 Then if they do penance in their heart in the place of captivity, and being converted make supplication to thee in their captivity, saying: We have sinned, we have done unjustly, we have committed wickedness:\n48 And return to thee with all their heart, and all their soul, in the land of their enemies, to which they had been led captives: and pray to thee towards the way of their land, which thou gavest to their fathers, and of the city which thou hast chosen, and of the temple which I have built to thy name:\n49 Then hear thou in heaven, in the firmament of thy throne, their prayers, and their supplications, and do judgment for them:\n50 And forgive thy people, that have sinned against thee, and all their iniquities, by which they have transgressed against thee: and give them mercy before them that have made them captives, that they may have compassion on them.\n51 For they are thy people, and thy inheritance, whom thou hast brought out of the land of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron.\n52 That thy eyes may be open to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, to hear them in all things for which they shall call upon thee.\n53 For thou hast separated them to thyself for an inheritance from among all the people of the earth, as thou hast spoken by Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord God.\n54 And it came to pass, when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication to the Lord, that he rose from before the altar of the Lord: for he had fixed both knees on the ground, and had spread his hands towards heaven.\n55 And he stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a, loud voice, saying:\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" }, {

which they slew the victims.\n42 And the four tables for the holocausts were made of square stones: one cubit and a half long, and one cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high: to lay the vessels upon, in which the holocaust and the victim is slain.\n43 And the borders of them were of one handbreadth, turned inwards round about: and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering.\n44 And without the inner gate were the chambers of the singing men in the inner court, which was on the side of the gate that looketh to the north: and their prospect was towards the south, one at the side of the east gate, which looketh toward the north.\n45 And he said to me: This chamber, which looketh toward the south shall be for the priests that watch in the wards of the temple.\n46 But the chamber that looketh towards the north shall be for the priests that watch over the ministry of the altar. These are the sons of Sadoc, who among the sons of Levi, come near to the Lord, to minister to him.\n47 And he measured the court a hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad foursquare: and the altar that was before the face of the temple.\n48 And he brought me into the porch of the temple: and he measured the porch five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and the breadth of the gate three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.\n49 And the length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits, and there were eight steps to go up to it.

And he put beams in the house round about on the outside, that they might not be fastened in the walls of the temple.\n7 And the house, when it was in building, was built of stones hewed and made ready: so that there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house when it was in building.\n8 The door for the middle side was on the right hand of the house: and by winding stairs they went up to the middle room, and from the middle to the third.\n9 So he built the house, and finished it: and he covered the house with roofs of cedar.\n10 And he built a floor over all the house five cubits in height, and he covered the house with timber of cedar.\n11 And the word of the Lord came to Solomon, saying:\n12 This house, which thou buildest, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and keep all my commandments, walking in them, I will fulfill my word to thee which I spoke to David thy father.\n13 And I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.\n14 So Solomon built the house and finished it.\n15 And he built the walls of the house on the inside, with boards of cedar, from the floor of the house to the top of the walls, and to the roots, he covered it with boards of cedar on the inside: and he covered the floor of the house with planks of fir.\n16 And he built up twenty cubits with boards of cedar at the hinder part of the temple, from the floor to the top: and made the inner house of the oracle to be the holy of holies.\n17 And the temple itself before the doors of the oracle was forty cubits long.\n18 And all the house was covered within with cedar, having the turnings, and the joints thereof artfully wrought and carvings projecting out: all was covered with boards of cedar: and no stone could be seen in the wall at all.\n19 And he made the oracle in the midst of the house, in the inner part, to set there the ark of the covenant of the Lord.\n20 Now the oracle was twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in height.

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.

And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.\n12 Now on the first day of the unleavened bread, when they sacrificed the pasch, the disciples say to him: Whither wilt thou that we go, and prepare for thee to eat the pasch?\n13 And he sendeth two of his disciples, and saith to them: Go ye into the city; and there shall meet you a man carrying a pitcher of water, follow him;\n14 And whithersoever he shall go in, say to the master of the house, The master saith, Where is my refectory, where I may eat the pasch with my disciples?\n15 And he will shew you a large dining room furnished; and there prepare ye for us.\n16 And his disciples went their way, and came into the city; and they found as he had told them, and they prepared the pasch.\n17 And when evening was come, he cometh with the twelve.\n18 And when they were at table and eating, Jesus saith: Amen I say to you, one of you that eateth with me shall betray me.\n19 But they began to be sorrowful, and to say to him one by one: Is it I?\n20 Who saith to them: One of the twelve, who dippeth with me his hand in the dish.\n21 And the Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man shall be betrayed.

Again the high priest asked him, and said to him: Art thou the Christ the Son of the blessed God?\n62 And Jesus said to him: I am. And you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of the power of God, and coming with the clouds of heaven.\n63 Then the high priest rending his garments, saith: What need we any further witnesses?\n64 You have heard the blasphemy.

The children of Israel did according to all things that the Lord had commanded Moses.\n6 But behold some who were unclean by occasion of the soul of a man, who could not make the phase on that day, coming to Moses and Aaron,\n7 Said to them: We are unclean by occasion of the soul of a man. Why are we kept back that we may not offer in its season the offering to the Lord among the children of Israel?\n8 And Moses answered them: Stay that I may consult the Lord what he will ordain concerning you.\n9 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:\n10 Say to the children of Israel: The man that shall be unclean by occasion of one that is dead, or shall be in a journey afar off in your nation, let him make the phase to the Lord.\n11 In the second month, on the fourteenth day of the month in the evening, they shall eat it with unleavened bread and wild lettuce:\n12 They shall not leave any thing thereof until morning, a nor break a bone thereof, they shall observe all the ceremonies of the phase.\n13 But if any man is clean, and was not on a journey, and did not make the phase, that soul shall be cut off from among his people, because he offered not sacrifice to the Lord in due season: he shall bear his sin.\n14 The sojourner also and the stranger if they be among you, shall make the phase to the Lord according to the ceremonies and justifications thereof.

At the commandment of the Lord they pitched their tents, and at his commandment they took them down.\n21 If the cloud tarried from evening until morning, and immediately at break of day left the tabernacle, they marched forward: and if it departed after a day and a night, they took down their tents.\n22 But if it remained over the tabernacle for two days or a month or a longer time, the children of Israel remained in the same place, and marched not: but immediately as soon as it departed, they removed the camp.\n23 By the word of the Lord they pitched their tents, and by his word they marched: and kept the watches of the Lord according to his commandment by the hand of Moses.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Proverbs 8:35 please", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Proverbs 8:35 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"He that shall find me, shall find life, and shall have salvation from the Lord:\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What are the chapter and verse numbers for \"Therefore hath God heard me, and hath attended to the voice of my supplication.\" in the Bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The text \"Therefore hath God heard me, and hath attended to the voice of my supplication.\" is part of Psalm chapter 65, verse 19 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which chapter and book contains \"For what things soever were written, were written for our learning: that through patience and the comfort of the scriptures, we might have hope.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from Romans, chapter 15.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\nRomans Chapter 15\n1 Now we that are stronger, ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.\n2 Let every one of you please his neighbour unto good, to edification.\n3 For Christ did not please himself, but as it is written: The reproaches of them that reproached thee, fell upon me.\n4 For what things soever were written, were written for our learning: that through patience and the comfort of the scriptures, we might have hope.\n5 Now the God of patience and of comfort grant you to be of one mind one towards another, according to Jesus Christ:\n6 That with one mind, and with one mouth, you may glorify God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.\n7 Wherefore receive one another, as Christ also hath received you unto the honour of God.\n8 For I say that Christ Jesus was minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers.\n9 But that the Gentiles are to glorify God for his mercy, as it is written: Therefore will I confess to thee, O Lord, among the Gentiles, and will sing to thy name.\n10 And again he saith: Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.\n11 And again: Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and magnify him, all ye people.\n12 And again Isaias saith: There shall be a root of Jesse; and he that shall rise up to rule the Gentiles, in him the Gentiles shall hope.\n13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing; that you may abound in hope, and in the power of the Holy Ghost.\n14 And I myself also, my brethren, am assured of you, that you also are full of love, replenished with all knowledge, so that you are able to admonish one another.\n15 But I have written to you, brethren, more boldly in some sort, as it were putting you in mind: because of the grace which is given me from God.\n16 That I should be the minister of Christ Jesus among the Gentiles; sanctifying the gospel of God, that the oblation of the Gentiles may be made acceptable and sanctified in the Holy Ghost.\n17 I have therefore glory in Christ Jesus towards God.\n18 For I dare not to speak of any of those things which Christ worketh not by me, for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed,\n19 By the virtue of signs and wonders, in the power of the Holy Ghost, so that from Jerusalem round about as far as unto Illyricum, I have replenished the gospel of Christ.\n20 And I have so preached this gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation.\n21 But as it is written: They to whom he was not spoken of, shall see, and they that have not heard shall understand.\n22 For which cause also I was hindered very much from coming to you, and have been kept away till now.\n23 But now having no more place in these countries, and having a great desire these many years past to come unto you,\n24 When I shall begin to take my journey into Spain, I hope that as I pass, I shall see you, and be brought on my way thither by you, if first, in part, I shall have enjoyed you:\n25 But now I shall go to Jerusalem, to minister unto the saints.\n26 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a contribution for the poor of the saints that are in Jerusalem.\n27 For it hath pleased them; and they are their debtors.

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

After whose birth, she ceased to bear any more.\n6 And Juda took a wife for Her his firstborn, whose name was Thamar.\n7 And Her, the firstborn of Juda, was wicked in the sight of the Lord: and was slain by him.\n8 Juda, therefore said to Onan his son: Go in to thy brother's wife and marry her, that thou mayst raise seed to thy brother.\n9 He knowing that the children should not be his, when he went in to his brother's wife, spilled his seed upon the ground, lest children should be born in his brother's name.\n10 And therefore the Lord slew him, because he did a detestable thing.\n11 Wherefore Juda said to Thamar his daughter in law: Remain a widow in thy father's house, till Sela my son grow up: for he was afraid lest he also might die, as his brethren did. She went her way and dwelt in her father's house.\n12 And after many days were past, the daughter of Sue the wife of Juda died: and when he had taken comfort after his mourning, he went up to Thamnas, to the shearers of his sheep, he and Hiras the Odollamite the shepherd of his flock.\n13 And it was told Thamar that her father in law was come up to Thamnas to shear his sheep.\n14 And she put off the garments of her widowhood, and took a veil: and changing her dress, sat in the cross way, that leadeth to Thamnas: because Sela was grown up, and she had not been married to him.\n15 When Juda saw her, he thought she was a harlot: for she had covered her face, lest she should be known.\n16 And going to her, he said: Suffer me to lie with thee: for he knew her not to be his daughter in law. And she answered: What wilt thou give me to enjoy my company?\n17 He said: I will send thee a kid out of the flock. And when she said again: I will suffer what thou wilt, if thou give a pledge, till thou send what thou promisest,\n18 Juda said: What wilt thou have for a pledge? She answered: Thy ring and bracelet, and the staff which thou holdest in thy hand. The woman therefore at one copulation conceived.\n19 And she arose and went her way: and putting off the apparel which she had taken, put on the garments of her widowhood.\n20 And Juda sent a kid by his shepherd, the Odollamite, that he might receive the pledge again, which he had given to the woman: but he, not finding her,\n21 Asked the men of that place: Where is the woman that sat in the cross way? And when they all made answer: There was no harlot in this place,\n22 He returned to Juda, and said to him: I have not found her; moreover the men of that place said to me, that there never sat a harlot there.\n23 Juda said: Let her take it to herself; surely she cannot charge us with a, lie: I sent the kid which I promised: and thou didst not find her.\n24 And behold after three months they told Juda, saying: Thamar, thy daughter in law hath played the harlot, and she appeareth to have a big belly.

They answered: We thy servants are shepherds, both we, and our fathers.\n4 We are come to sojourn in thy land, because there is no grass for the flocks of thy servants, the famine being very grievous in the land of Chanaan: and we pray thee to give orders that we thy servants may be in the land of Gessen.\n5 The king therefore said to Joseph: Thy father and thy brethren are come to thee.\n6 The land of Egypt is before thee: make them dwell in the best place, and give them the land of Gessen. And if thou knowest that there are industrious men among them, make them rulers over my cattle.\n7 After this Joseph brought in his father to the king, and presented him before him: and he blessed him.\n8 And being asked by him: How many are the days of the years of thy life?\n9 He answered: The days of my pilgrimage are a hundred and thirty years, few, and evil, and they are not come up to the days of the pilgrimage of my fathers.\n10 And blessing the king, he went out.\n11 But Joseph gave a possession to his father and his brethren in Egypt, in the best place of the land, in Ramesses, as Pharao had commanded.\n12 And he nourished them, and all his father's house, allowing food to every one.\n13 For in the whole world there was want of bread, and a famine had oppressed the land: more especially of Egypt and Chanaan.\n14 Out of which he gathered up all the money for the corn which they bought, and brought it into the king's treasure.\n15 And when the buyers wanted money, all Egypt came to Joseph, saying: Give us bread: why should we die in thy presence, having now no money.\n16 And he answered them: Bring me your cattle, and for them I will give you food, if you have no money.\n17 And when they had brought them, he gave them food in exchange for their horses, and sheep, and oxen, and asses and he maintained them that year for the exchange of their cattle.\n18 And they came the second year, and said to him: We will not hide from our lord, how that our money is spent, and our cattle also are gone: neither art thou ignorant that we have nothing now left but our bodies and our lands.\n19 Why therefore shall we die before thy eyes? we will be thine, both we and our lands: buy us to be the king's servants, and give us seed, lest for want of tillers the land be turned into a wilderness.\n20 So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt, every man selling his possessions, because of the greatness of the famine.

judgment sat, and the books were opened.\n11 I beheld because of the voice of the great words which that horn spoke: and I saw that the beast was slain, and the body thereof was destroyed, and given to the fire to be burnt:\n12 And that the power of the other beasts was taken away: and that times of life were appointed them for a time, and a time.\n13 I beheld therefore in the vision of the night, and lo, one like the son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and he came even to the Ancient of days: and they presented him before him.\n14 And he gave him power, and glory, and a kingdom: and all peoples, tribes and tongues shall serve him: his power is an everlasting power that shall not be taken away: and his kingdom that shall not be destroyed.\n15 My spirit trembled, I Daniel was affrighted at these things, and the visions of my head troubled me.\n16 I went near to one of them that stood by, and asked the truth of him concerning all these things, and he told me the interpretation of the words, and instructed me:\n17 These four great beasts are four kingdoms, which shall arise out of the earth.\n18 But the saints of the most high God shall take the kingdom: and they shall possess the kingdom for ever and ever.\n19 After this I would diligently learn concerning the fourth beast, which was very different from all, and exceeding terrible: his teeth and claws were of iron: he devoured and broke in pieces, and the rest he stamped upon with his feet:\n20 And concerning the ten horns that he had on his head: and concerning the other that came up, before which three horns fell: and of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and was greater than the rest.\n21 I beheld, and lo, that horn made war against the saints, and prevailed over them,\n22 Till the Ancient of days came and gave judgment to the saints of the most High, and the time came, and the saints obtained the kingdom.\n23 And thus he said: The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be greater than all the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.\n24 And the ten horns of the same kingdom, shall be ten kings: and another shall rise up after them, and he shall be mightier than the former, and he shall bring down three kings.\n25 And he shall speak words against the High One, and shall crush the saints of the most High: and he shall think himself able to change times and laws, and they shall be delivered into his hand until a time, and times, and half a time.\n26 And judgment shall sit, that his power may be taken away, and be broken in pieces, and perish even to the end.\n27 And that the kingdom, and power, and the greatness of the kingdom, under the whole heaven, may be given to the people of the saints of the most High: whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all kings shall serve him, and shall obey him.\n28 Hitherto is the end of the word.

Every spirit which confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh, is of God:\n3 And every spirit that dissolveth Jesus, is not of God: and this is Antichrist, of whom you have heard that he cometh, and he is now already in the world.\n4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome him. Because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.\n5 They are of the world: therefore of the world they speak, and the world heareth them.\n6 We are of God. He that knoweth God, heareth us. He that is not of God, heareth us not. By this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.\n7 Dearly beloved, let us love one another, for charity is of God. And every one that loveth, is born of God, and knoweth God.\n8 He that loveth not, knoweth not God: for God is charity.\n9 By this hath the charity of God appeared towards us, because God hath sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we may live by him.\n10 In this is charity: not as though we had loved God, but because he hath first loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins.\n11 My dearest, if God hath so loved us; we also ought to love one another.\n12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and his charity is perfected in us.\n13 In this we know that we abide in him, and he in us: because he hath given us of his spirit.\n14 And we have seen, and do testify, that the Father hath sent his Son to be the Saviour of the world.\n15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God.\n16 And we have known, and have believed the charity, which God hath to us. God is charity: and he that abideth in charity, abideth in God, and God in him.\n17 In this is the charity of God perfected with us, that we may have confidence in the day of judgment: because as he is, we also are in this world.\n18 Fear is not in charity: but perfect charity casteth out fear, because fear hath pain. And he that feareth, is not perfected in charity.\n19 Let us therefore love God, because God first hath loved us.\n20 If any man say, I love God, and hateth his brother; he is a liar.

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

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

For according to these things did their fathers to the prophets.\n24 But woe to you that are rich: for you have your consolation.\n25 Woe to you that are filled: for you shall hunger. Woe to you that now laugh: for you shall mourn and weep.\n26 Woe to you when men shall bless you: for according to these things did their fathers to the false prophets.\n27 But I say to you that hear: Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you.\n28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them that calumniate you.\n29 And to him that striketh thee on the one cheek, offer also the other. And him that taketh away from thee thy cloak, forbid not to take thy coat also.\n30 Give to every one that asketh thee, and of him that taketh away thy goods, ask them not again.\n31 And as you would that men should do to you, do you also to them in like manner.\n32 And if you love them that love you, what thanks are to you? for sinners also love those that love them.\n33 And if you do good to them who do good to you, what thanks are to you? for sinners also do this.\n34 And if you lend to them of whom you hope to receive, what thanks are to you? for sinners also lend to sinners, for to receive as much.\n35 But love ye your enemies: do good, and lend, hoping for nothing thereby: and your reward shall be great, and you shall be the sons of the Highest; for he is kind to the unthankful, and to the evil.\n36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.\n37 Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you shall be forgiven.\n38 Give, and it shall be given to you: good measure and pressed down and shaken together and running over shall they give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you shall mete withal, it shall be measured to you again.\n39 And he spoke also to them a similitude: Can the blind lead the blind? do they not both fall into the ditch?\n40 The disciple is not above his master: but every one shall be perfect, if he be as his master.\n41 And why seest thou the mote in thy brother's eye: but the beam that is in thy own eye thou considerest not?\n42 Or how canst thou say to thy brother: Brother, let me pull the mote out of thy eye, when thou thyself seest not the beam in thy own eye? Hypocrite, cast first the beam out of thy own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to take out the mote from thy brother's eye.\n43 For there is no good tree that bringeth forth evil fruit; nor an evil tree that bringeth forth good fruit.\n44 For every tree is known by its fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns; nor from a bramble bush do they gather the grape.\n45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth that which is evil. For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.\n46 And why call you me, Lord, Lord; and do not the things which I say?\n47 Every one that cometh to me, and heareth my words, and doth them, I will shew you to whom he is like.\n48 He is like to a man building a house, who digged deep, and laid the foundation upon a rock. And when a flood came, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and it could not shake it; for it was founded on a rock.\n49 But he that heareth, and doth not, is like to a man building his house upon the earth without a foundation: against which the stream beat vehemently, and immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house was great.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the content of Numbers 19:20?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, Numbers chapter 19, verse 20 (Douay Rheims) says:\n\"If any man be not expiated after this rite, his soul shall perish out of the midst of the church: because he hath profaned the sanctuary of the Lord, and was not sprinkled with the water of purification.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"Unto the end, understanding for the sons of Core.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book Psalm, chapter 41.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\nPsalm Chapter 41\n1 Unto the end, understanding for the sons of Core.\n2 As the hart panteth after the fountains of water; so my soul panteth after thee, O God.\n3 My soul hath thirsted after the strong living God; when shall I come and appear before the face of God?\n4 My tears have been my bread day and night, whilst it is said to me daily: Where is thy God?\n5 These things I remembered, and poured out my soul in me: for I shall go over into the place of the wonderful tabernacle, even to the house of God: With the voice of joy and praise; the noise of one feasting.\n6 Why art thou sad, O my soul? and why dost thou trouble me?

"content": "It's from the book of 1 Maccabees, chapter 10.\n\nHere's the chapter in full:\n1 Maccabees Chapter 10\n1 Now in the hundred and sixtieth year Alexander the son of Antiochus, surnamed the Illustrious, came up and took Ptolemais, and they received him, and he reigned there.\n2 And king Demetrius heard of it, and gathered together an exceeding great army, and went forth against him to fight.\n3 And Demetrius sent a letter to Jonathan with peaceable words, to magnify him.\n4 For he said: Let us first make a peace with him, before he make one with Alexander against us.\n5 For he will remember all the evils that we have done against him, and against his brother, and against his nation.\n6 And he gave him authority to gather together an army, and to make arms, and that he should be his confederate: and the hostages that were in the castle, he commanded to be delivered to him.\n7 And Jonathan came to Jerusalem, and read the letters in the hearing of all the people, and of them that were in the castle.\n8 And they were struck with great fear, because they heard that the king had given him authority to gather together an army.\n9 And the hostages were delivered to Jonathan, and he restored them to their parents.\n10 And Jonathan dwelt in Jerusalem, and began to build, and to repair the city.\n11 And he ordered workmen to build the walls, and mount Sion round about with square stones for fortification: and so they did.\n12 And the strangers that were in the strong holds, which Bacchides had built, fled away.\n13 And every man left his place, and departed into his own country:\n14 Only in Bethsura there remained some of them, that had forsaken the law, and the commandments of God: for this was a place of refuge for them.\n15 And king Alexander heard of the promises that Demetrius had made Jonathan: and they told him of the battles, and the worthy acts that he, and his brethren had done, and the labours that they had endured.\n16 And he said: Shall we find such another man? now therefore we will make him our friend and our confederate.\n17 So he wrote a letter, and sent it to him according to these words, saying:\n18 King Alexander to his brother Jonathan, greeting.\n19 We have heard of thee, that thou art a man of great power, and fit to be our friend:\n20 Now therefore we make thee this day high priest of thy nation, and that thou be called the king's friend, (and he sent him a purple robe, and a crown of gold,) and that thou be of one mind with us in our affairs, and keep friendship with us.\n21 Then Jonathan put on the holy vestment in the seventh month, in the year one hundred and threescore, at the feast day of the tabernacles: and he gathered together an army, and made a great number of arms.\n22 And Demetrius heard these words, and was exceeding sorry, and said:\n23 What is this that we have done, that Alexander hath prevented us to gain the friendship of the Jews to strengthen himself?\n24 I also will write to them words of request, and offer dignities, and gifts: that they may be with me to aid me.\n25 And he wrote to them in these words: King Demetrius to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n26 Whereas you have kept covenant with us, and have continued in our friendship, and have not joined with our enemies, we have heard of it, and are glad.\n27 Wherefore now continue still to keep fidelity towards us, and we will reward you with good things, for what you have done in our behalf.\n28 And we will remit to you many charges, and will give you gifts.\n29 And now I free you, and all the Jews from tributes, and I release you from the customs of salt, and remit the crowns, and the thirds of the seed:\n30 And the half of the fruit of trees, which is my share, I leave to you from this day forward, so that it shall not be taken of the land of Juda, and of the three cities that are added thereto out of Samaria and Galilee, from this day forth and for ever:\n31 And let Jerusalem be holy and free, with the borders thereof: and let the tenths, and tributes be for itself.\n32 I yield up also the power of the castle that is in Jerusalem, and I give it to the high priest, to place therein such men as he shall choose to keep it.\n33 And every soul of the Jews that hath been carried captive from the land of Juda in all my kingdom, I set at liberty freely, that all be discharged from tributes even of their cattle.\n34 And I will that all the feasts, and the sabbaths, and the new moons, and the days appointed, and three days before the solemn day, and three days after the solemn day, be all days of immunity and freedom, for all the Jews that are in my kingdom:\n35 And no man shall have power to do any thing against them, or to molest any of them, in any cause.\n36 And let there be enrolled in the king's army to the number of thirty thousand of the Jews: and allowance shall be made them as is due to all the king's forces, and certain of them shall be appointed to be in the fortresses of the great king:\n37 And some of them shall be set over the affairs of the kingdom, that are of trust, and let the governors be taken from among themselves, and let them walk in their own laws, as the king hath commanded in the land of Juda.\n38 And the three cities that are added to Judea, out of the country of Samaria, let them be accounted with Judea: that they may be under one, and obey no other authority but that of the high priest:\n39 Ptolemais, and the confines thereof, I give as a free gift to the holy places, that are in Jerusalem, for the necessary charges of the holy things.\n40 And I give every year fifteen thousand sicles of silver out of the king's accounts, of what belongs to me:\n41 And all that is above, which they that were over the affairs the years before, had not paid, from this time they shall give it to the works of the house.\n42 Moreover the five thousand sicles of silver which they received from the account of the holy places, every year, shall also belong to the priests that execute the ministry.\n43 And whosoever shall flee into the temple that is in Jerusalem, and in all the borders thereof, being indebted to the king for any matter, let them be set at liberty, and all that they have in my kingdom, let them have it free.\n44 For the building also, or repairing the works of the holy places, the charges shall be given out of the king's revenues:\n45 For the building also of the walls of Jerusalem, and the fortifying thereof round about, the charges shall be given out of the king's account, as also for the building of the walls in Judea.\n46 Now when Jonathan, and the people heard these words, they gave no credit to them nor received them: because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel, for he had afflicted them exceedingly.\n47 And their inclinations were towards Alexander, because he had been the chief promoter of peace in their regard, and him they always helped.\n48 And king Alexander gathered together a great army, and moved his camp near to Demetrius.\n49 And the two kings joined battle, and the army of Demetrius fled away, and Alexander pursued after him, and pressed them close.\n50 And the battle was hard fought till the sun went down: and Demetrius was slain that day.\n51 And Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemee king of Egypt, with words to this effect, saying:\n52 Forasmuch as I am returned into my kingdom, and am set in the throne of my ancestors and have gotten the dominion, and have overthrown Demetrius, and possessed our country,\n53 And have joined battle with him, and both he and his army have been destroyed by us, and we are placed in the throne of his kingdom:\n54 Now therefore let us make friendship one with another: and give me now thy daughter to wife, and I will be thy son in law, and I will give both thee and her gifts worthy of thee.\n55 And king Ptolemee answered, saying: Happy is the day wherein thou didst return to the land of thy fathers, and sattest in the throne of their kingdom.\n56 And now I will do to thee as thou hast written: but meet me at Ptolemais, that we may see one another, and I may give her to thee as thou hast said.\n57 So Ptolemee went out of Egypt, with Cleopatra his daughter, and he came to Ptolemais in the hundred and sixty-second year.\n58 And king Alexander met him, and he gave him his daughter Cleopatra: and he celebrated her marriage at Ptolemais, with great glory, after the manner of kings.\n59 And king Alexander wrote to Jonathan, that he should come and meet him.\n60 And he went honourably to Ptolemais, and he met there the two kings, and he gave them much silver, and gold, and presents: and he found favour in their sight.\n61 And some pestilent men of Israel, men of a wicked life, assembled themselves against him to accuse him: and the king gave no heed to them.\n62 And he commanded that Jonathan's garments should be taken off, and that he should be clothed with purple: and they did so. And the king made him sit by himself.\n63 And he said to his princes: Go out with him into the midst of the city, and make proclamation, that no man complain against him of any matter, and that no man trouble him for any manner of cause.\n64 So when his accusers saw his glory proclaimed, and him clothed with purple, they all fled away.\n65 And the king magnified him, and enrolled him amongst his chief friends, and made him governor and partaker of his dominion.\n66 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with peace and joy.\n67 In the year one hundred and sixty-five Demetrius the son of Demetrius came from Crete into the land of his fathers.\n68 And king Alexander heard of it, and was much troubled, and returned to Antioch.\n69 And king Demetrius made Apollonius his general, who was governor of Celesyria: and he gathered together a great army, and came to Jamnia: and he sent to Jonathan the high priest,\n70 Saying: Thou alone standest against us, and I am laughed at, and reproached, because thou shewest thy power against us in the mountains.\n71 Now therefore if thou trustest in thy forces, come down to us into the plain, and there let us try one another: for with me is the strength of war.\n72 Ask, and learn who I am, and the rest that help me, who also say that your foot cannot stand before our face, for thy fathers have twice been put to flight in their own land:\n73 And now how wilt thou be able to abide the horsemen, and so great an army in the plain, where there is no stone, nor rock, nor place to flee to?\n74 Now when Jonathan heard the words of Apollonius, he was moved in his mind: and he chose ten thousand men, and went out of Jerusalem, and Simon his brother met him to help him.\n75 And they pitched their tents near Joppe, but they shut him out of the city: because a garrison of Apollonius was in Joppe, and he laid siege to it.\n76 And they that were in the city being affrighted, opened the gates to him: so Jonathan took Joppe.\n77 And Apollonius heard of it, and he took three thousand horsemen, and a great army.\n78 And he went to Azotus as one that was making a journey, and immediately he went forth into the plain: because he had a great number of horsemen, and he trusted in them. And Jonathan followed after him to Azotus, and they joined battle.\n79 And Apollonius left privately in the camp a thousand horsemen behind them.\n80 And Jonathan knew that there was an ambush behind him, and they surrounded his army, and cast darts at the people from morning till evening.\n81 But the people stood still, as Jonathan had commanded them: and so their horses were fatigued.\n82 Then Simon drew forth his army, and attacked the legion: for the horsemen were wearied: and they were discomfited by him, and fled.\n83 And they that were scattered about the plain, fled into Azotus, and went into Bethdagon their idol's temple, there to save themselves.\n84 But Jonathan set fire to Azotus, and the cities that were around it, and took the spoils of them, and the temple of Dagon: and all them that were fled into it, he burnt with fire.\n85 So they that were slain by the sword, with them that were burnt, were almost eight thousand men.\n86 And Jonathan removed his army from thence, and camped against Ascalon: and they went out of the city to meet him with great honour.\n87 And Jonathan returned into Jerusalem with his people, having many spoils.\n88 And it came to pass: When Alexander the king heard these words, that he honoured Jonathan yet more.\n89 And he sent him a buckle of gold, as the custom is, to be given to such as are of the royal blood. And he gave him Accaron and all the borders thereof in possession.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- Book: 1 Peter\n- Chapter: 3\n- Verse: 16", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from 1 Peter 3:16, New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"But with modesty and fear, having a good conscience: that whereas they speak evil of you, they may be ashamed who falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Quote from 2 Maccabees chapter 2, verse 25", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in 2 Maccabees 2:25 of the Old Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"For considering the multitude of books, and the difficulty that they find that desire to undertake the narrations of histories, because of the multitude of the matter,\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What book is the quote \"And they drew forth Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews thrusting him forward.

But as we know not what to do, we can only turn our eyes to thee.\n13 And all Juda stood before the Lord with their little ones, and their wives, and their children.\n14 And Jahaziel the son of Zacharias, the son of Banaias, the son of Jehiel, the son of Mathanias, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, was there, upon whom the spirit of the Lord came in the midst of the multitude,\n15 And he said: Attend ye, all Juda, and you that dwell in Jerusalem, and thou king Josaphat: Thus saith the Lord to you: Fear ye not, and be not dismayed at this multitude: for the battle is not yours, but God's.\n16 To morrow you shall go down against them: for they will come up by the ascent named Sis, and you shall find them at the head of the torrent, which is over against the wilderness of Jeruel.\n17 It shall not be you that shall fight, but only stand with confidence, and you shall see the help of the Lord over you, O Juda, and Jerusalem: fear ye not, nor be you dismayed: to morrow you shall go out against them, and the Lord will be with you.\n18 Then Josaphat, and Juda, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell hat on the ground before the Lord, and adored him.\n19 And the Levites of the sons of Caath, and of the sons of Core praised the Lord the God of Israel with a loud voice, on high.\n20 And they rose early in the morning, and went out through the desert of Thecua: and as they were marching, Josaphat standing in the midst of them, said: Hear me, ye men of Juda, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: believe in the Lord your God, and you shall be secure: believe his prophets, and all things shall succeed well.\n21 And he gave counsel to the people, and appointed the singing men of the Lord, to praise him by their companies, and to go before the army, and with one voice to say: Give glory to the Lord, for his mercy endureth for ever.\n22 And when they began to sing praises, the Lord turned their ambushments upon themselves, that is to say, of the children of Ammon, and of Moab, and of mount Seir, who were come out to fight against Juda, and they were slain.\n23 For the children of Ammon, and of Moab, rose up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, to kill and destroy them: and when they had made an end of them, they turned also against one another, and destroyed one another.\n24 And when Juda came to the watch tower, that looketh toward the desert, they saw afar off all the country, for a great space, full of dead bodies, and that no one was left that could escape death.\n25 Then Josaphat came, and all the people with him to take away the spoils of the dead, and they found among the dead bodies, stuff of various kinds, and garments, and most precious vessels: and they took them for themselves, insomuch that they could not carry all, nor in three days take away the spoils, the booty was so great.\n26 And on the fourth day they were assembled in the valley of Blessing: for there they blessed the Lord, and therefore they called that place the valley of Blessing until this day.\n27 And every man of Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem returned, and Josaphat at their head, into Jerusalem with great joy, because the Lord had made them rejoice over their enemies.\n28 And they came into Jerusalem with psalteries, and harps, and trumpets into the house of the Lord.\n29 And the fear of the Lord fell upon all the kingdoms of the lands when they heard that the Lord had fought against the enemies of Israel.\n30 And the kingdom of Josaphat was quiet, and God gave him peace round about.\n31 And Josaphat reigned over Juda, and he was five and thirty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned five and twenty years in Jerusalem: and the name of his mother was Azuba the daughter of Selahi.\n32 And he walked in the way of his father Asa, and departed not from it, doing the things that were pleasing before the Lord.\n33 But yet he took not away the high places, and the people had not yet turned their heart to the Lord the God of their fathers.\n34 But the rest of the acts of Josaphat, first and last, are written in the words of Jehu the son of Hanani, which he digested into the books of the kings of Israel.\n35 After these things Josaphat king of Juda made friendship with Ochozias king of Israel, whose works were very wicked.\n36 And he was partner with him in making ships, to go to Tharsis: and they made the ships in Asiongaber.\n37 And Eliezer the son of Dodau of Maresa prophesied to Josaphat, saying: Because thou hast made a league with Ochozias, the Lord hath destroyed thy works, and the ships are broken, and they could not go to Tharsis.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"And we shall come upon him in what place soever he shall be found: and we

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

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,

But he that sent me, is true: and the things I have heard of him, these same I speak in the world.\n27 And they understood not, that he called God his Father.\n28 Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know, that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak:\n29 And he that sent me, is with me, and he hath not left me alone: for I do always the things that please him.\n30 When he spoke these things, many believed in him.\n31 Then Jesus said to those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.\n32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.\n33 They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?\n34 Jesus answered them: Amen, amen I say unto you: that whosoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin.\n35 Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the son abideth for ever.\n36 If therefore the son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.\n37 I know that you are the children of Abraham: but you seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.\n38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do the things that you have seen with your father.\n39 They answered, and said to him: Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them: If you be the children of Abraham, do the works of Abraham.\n40 But now you seek to kill me, a man who have spoken the truth to you, which I have heard of God. This Abraham did not.\n41 You do the works of your father. They said therefore to him: We are not born of fornication: we have one Father, even God.\n42 Jesus therefore said to them: If God were your Father, you would indeed love me. For from God I proceeded, and came; for I came not of myself, but he sent me:\n43 Why do you not know my speech? Because you cannot hear my word.\n44 You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and he stood not in the truth; because truth is not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.\n45 But if I say the truth, you believe me not.\n46 Which of you shall convince me of sin? If I say the truth to you, why do you not believe me?\n47 He that is of God, heareth the words of God. Therefore you hear them not, because you are not of God.\n48 The Jews therefore answered, and said to him: Do not we say well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?\n49 Jesus answered: I have not a devil: but I honour my Father, and you have dishonoured me.\n50 But I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.\n51 Amen, amen I say to you: If any man keep my word, he shall not see death for ever.\n52 The Jews therefore said: Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest: If any man keep my word, he shall not taste death for ever.\n53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead. Whom dost thou make thyself?\n54 Jesus answered: If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father that glorifieth me, of whom you say that he is your God.\n55 And you have not known him, but I know him. And if I shall say that I know him not, I shall be like to you, a liar. But I do know him, and do keep his word.\n56 Abraham your father rejoiced that he might see my day: he saw it, and was glad.\n57 The Jews therefore said to him: Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?\n58 Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say to you, before Abraham was made, I am.\n59 They took up stones therefore to cast at him.

And they were scandalized in regard of him.\n4 And Jesus said to them: A prophet is not without honor, but in his own country, and in his own house, and among his own kindred.\n5 And he could not do any miracles there, only that he cured a few that were sick, laying his hands upon them.\n6 And he wondered because of their unbelief, and he went through the villages round about teaching.\n7 And he called the twelve; and began to send them two and two, and gave them power over unclean spirits.\n8 And he commanded them that they should take nothing for the way, but a staff only: no scrip, no bread, nor money in their purse,\n9 But to be shod with sandals, and that they should not put on two coats.\n10 And he said to them: Wheresoever you shall enter into an house, there abide till you depart from that place.\n11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you; going forth from thence, shake off the dust from your feet for a testimony to them.\n12 And going forth they preached that men should do penance:\n13 And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed them.\n14 And king Herod heard, (for his name was made manifest,) and he said: John the Baptist is risen again from the dead, and therefore mighty works shew forth themselves in him.\n15 And others said: It is Elias. But others said: It is a prophet, as one of the prophets.\n16 Which Herod hearing, said: John whom I beheaded, he is risen again from the dead.\n17 For Herod himself had sent and apprehended John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, because he had married her.\n18 For John said to Herod: It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's wife.\n19 Now Herodias laid snares for him: and was desirous to put him to death, and could not.\n20 For Herod feared John, knowing him to be a just and holy man: and kept him, and when he heard him, did many things: and he heard him willingly.\n21 And when a convenient day was come, Herod made a supper for his birthday, for the princes, and tribunes, and chief men of Galilee.\n22 And when the daughter of the same Herodias had come in, and had danced, and pleased Herod, and them that were at table with him, the king said to the damsel: Ask of me what thou wilt, and I will give it thee.\n23 And he swore to her: Whatsoever thou shalt ask I will give thee, though it be the half of my kingdom.\n24 Who when she was gone out, said to her mother, What shall I ask? But she said: The head of John the Baptist.\n25 And when she was come in immediately with haste to the king, she asked, saying: I will that forthwith thou give me in a dish, the head of John the Baptist.\n26 And the king was struck sad.

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

Now for their names, Samaria is Oolla, and Jerusalem is Ooliba.\n5 And Oolla committed fornication against me, and doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians that came to her,\n6 Who were clothed with blue, princes, and rulers, beautiful youths, all horsemen, mounted upon horses.\n7 And she committed her fornications with those chosen men, all sons of the Assyrians: and she defiled herself with the uncleanness of all them on whom she doted.\n8 Moreover also she did not forsake her fornications which she had committed in Egypt: for they also lay with her in her youth, and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and poured out their fornication upon her.\n9 Therefore have I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, into the hands of the sons of the Assyrians, upon whose lust she doted.\n10 They discovered her disgrace, took away her sons and daughters, and slew her with the sword: and they became infamous women, and they executed judgments in her.\n11 And when her sister Ooliba saw this, she was mad with lust more than she: and she carried her fornication beyond the fornication of her sister.\n12 Impudently prostituting herself to the children of the Assyrians, the princes, and rulers that came to her, clothed with divers colours, to the horsemen that rode upon horses, and to young men all of great beauty.\n13 And I saw that she was defiled, and that they both took one 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 Babylon, and all the Chaldeans, the nobles, and the kings, and princes, all the sons of the Assyrians, beautiful young men, all the captains, and rulers, the princes of princes, and the renowned horsemen.\n24 And they shall come upon thee well appointed with chariot and wheel, a multitude of people: they shall be armed against thee on every side with breastplate, and buckler, and helmet: and I will set judgment before them, and they shall judge thee by their judgments.\n25 And I will set my jealousy against thee, which they shall execute upon thee with fury: they shall cut off thy nose and thy ears: and what remains shall fall by the sword: they shall take thy sons, and thy daughters, and thy residue shall be devoured by fire.\n26 And they shall strip thee of thy garments, and take away the instruments of thy glory.\n27 And I will put an end to thy wickedness in thee, and thy fornication brought out of the land of Egypt: neither shalt thou lift up thy eyes to them, nor remember Egypt any more.\n28 For thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I will deliver thee into the hands of them whom thou hatest, into their hands with whom thy soul hath been glutted.\n29 And they shall deal with thee in hatred, and they shall take away all thy labours, and shall let thee go naked, and full of disgrace, and the disgrace of thy fornication shall be discovered, thy wickedness, and thy fornications.\n30 They have done these things to thee, because thou hast played the harlot with the nations among which thou wast defiled with their idols.\n31 Thou hast walked in the way of thy sister, and I will give her cup into thy hand.\n32 Thus saith the Lord God: Thou shalt drink thy sister's cup, deep, and wide: thou shalt be had in derision and scorn, which containeth very much.\n33 Thou shalt be filled with drunkenness, and sorrow: with the cup of grief, and sadness, with the cup of thy sister Samaria.\n34 And thou shalt drink it, and shalt drink it up even to the dregs, and thou shalt devour the fragments thereof, thou shalt rend thy breasts: because I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.\n35 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because thou hast forgotten me, and hast cast me off behind thy back, bear thou also thy wickedness, and thy fornications.\n36 And the Lord spoke to me, saying: Son of man, dost thou judge Oolla, and Ooliba, and dost thou declare to them their

And I answered: Here I am.\n12 And he said: Lift up thy eyes, and see that all the males leaping upon the females, are of divers colours, spotted, and speckled. For I have seen all that Laban hath done to thee.\n13 I am the God of Bethel, where thou didst anoint the stone, and make a vow to me. Now therefore arise, and go out of this land, and return into thy native country.\n14 And Rachel and Lia answered: Have we any thing left among the goods and inheritance of our father's house?\n15 Hath he not counted us as strangers and sold us, and eaten up the price of us?\n16 But God hath taken our father's riches, and delivered them to us, and to our children: wherefore do all that God hath commanded thee.\n17 Then Jacob rose up, and having set his children and wives upon camels, went his way.\n18 And he took all his substance, and flocks, and whatsoever he had gotten in Mesopotamia, and went forward to Isaac his father to the land of Chanaan.\n19 At that time Laban was gone to shear his sheep, and Rachel stole away her father's idols.\n20 And Jacob would not confess to his father in law that he was flying away.\n21 And when he was gone, together with all that belonged to him, and having passed the river, was going on towards mount Galaad,\n22 It was told Laban on the third day that Jacob fled.\n23 And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days; and overtook him in the mount of Galaad.\n24 And he saw in a dream God saying to him: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob.\n25 Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mountain: and when he with his brethren had overtaken him, he pitched his tent in the same mount of Galaad.\n26 And he said to Jacob: Why hast thou done thus, to carry away, without my knowledge, my daughters, as captives taken with the sword.\n27 Why wouldst thou run away privately and not acquaint me, that I might have brought thee on the way with joy, and with songs, and with timbrels, and with harps?\n28 Thou hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and daughters: thou hast done foolishly: and now, indeed,\n29 It is in my power to return thee evil: but the God of your father said to me yesterday: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob.\n30 Suppose thou didst desire to go to thy friends, and hadst a longing after thy father's house: why hast thou stolen away my gods?\n31 Jacob answered: That I departed unknown to thee, it was for fear lest thou wouldst take away thy daughters by force.\n32 But whereas thou chargest me with theft: with whomsoever thou shalt find thy gods, let him be slain before our brethren. Search, and if thou find any of thy things with me, take them away. Now when he said this, he knew not that Rachel had stolen the idols.\n33 So Laban went into the tent of Jacob, and of Lia, and of both the handmaids, and found them not. And when he was entered into Rachel's tent,\n34 She in haste hid the idols under the camel's furniture, and sat upon them: and when he had searched all the tent, and found nothing,\n35 She said: Let not my lord be angry that I cannot rise up before thee, because it has now happened to me, according to the custom of women, So his careful search was in vain.\n36 And Jacob being angry, said in a chiding manner: For what fault of mine, and for what offence on my part hast thou so hotly pursued me,\n37 And searched all my household stuff? What hast thou found of all the substance of thy house? lay it here before my brethren, and thy brethren, and let them judge between me and thee.\n38 Have I therefore been with thee twenty years? thy ewes and goats were not barren, the rams of thy flocks I did not eat:\n39 Neither did I shew thee that which the beast had torn, I made good all the damage: whatsoever was lost by theft, thou didst exact it of me:\n40 Day and night was I parched with heat, and with frost, and sleep departed from my eyes.\n41 And in this manner have I served thee in thy house twenty years, fourteen for thy daughters, and six for thy flocks: thou hast changed also my wages ten times.\n42 Unless the God of my father Abraham, and the fear of Isaac had stood by me, peradventure now thou hadst sent me away naked: God beheld my affliction and the labour of my hands, and rebuked thee yesterday.\n43 Laban answered him: The daughters are mine and the children, and thy flocks, and all things that thou seest are mine: what can I do to my children, and grandchildren?\n44 Come therefore, let us enter into a league: that it may be for a testimony between me and thee.\n45 And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a title:\n46 And he said to his brethren: Bring hither stones. And they gathering stones together, made a heap, and they ate upon it.\n47 And Laban called it The witness heap: and Jacob, The hillock of testimony: each of them according to the propriety of his language.\n48 And Laban said: This heap shall be a witness between me and thee this day, and therefore the name thereof was called Galaad, that is, The witness heap.\n49 The Lord behold and judge between us when we shall be gone one from the other.\n50 If thou afflict my daughters, and if thou bring in other wives over them: none is witness of our speech but God, who is present and beholdeth.\n51 And he said again to Jacob: Behold, this heap, and the stone which I have set up between me and thee,\n52 Shall be a witness: this heap, I say, and the stone, be they for a testimony, if either I shall pass beyond it going towards thee, or thou shalt pass beyond it, thinking harm to me.\n53 The God of Abraham, and the God of Nachor, the God of their father, judge between us. And Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac.\n54 And after he had offered sacrifices in the mountain, he called his brethren to eat bread.

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

God forbid. For I also am an Israelite of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.\n2 God hath not cast away his people, which he foreknew. 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.\n26 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? Or who hath been his counsellor?\n35 Or who hath first given to him, and recompense shall be made him?\n36 For of him, and by him, and in him, are all things: to him be glory for ever.

after Jason withdrew himself from the holy land, and from the kingdom.\n8 They burnt the gate, and shed innocent blood: then we prayed to the Lord, and were heard, and we offered sacrifices, and fine flour, and lighted the lamps, and set forth the loaves.\n9 And now celebrate ye the days of Scenopegia in the month of Casleu.\n10 In the year one hundred and eighty-eight, the people that is at Jerusalem, and in Judea, and the senate, and Judas, to Aristobolus, the preceptor of king Ptolemee, who is of the stock of the anointed priests, and to the Jews that are in Egypt, health and welfare.\n11 Having been delivered by God out of great dangers, we give him great thanks, forasmuch as we have been in war with such a king.\n12 For he made numbers of men swarm out of Persia that have fought against us, and the holy city.\n13 For when the leader himself was in Persia, and with him a very great army, he fell in the temple of Nanea, being deceived by the counsel of the priests of Nanea.\n14 For Antiochus, with his friends, came to the place as though he would marry her, and that he might receive great sums of money under the title of a dowry.\n15 And when the priests of Nanea had set it forth, and he with a small company had entered into the compass of the temple, they shut the temple,\n16 When Antiochus was come in: and opening a secret entrance of the temple, they cast stones and slew the leader, and them that were with him, and hewed them in pieces, and cutting off their heads they threw them forth.\n17 Blessed be God in all things, who hath delivered up the wicked.\n18 Therefore whereas we purpose to keep the purification of the temple on the five and twentieth day of the month of Casleu, we thought it necessary to signify it to you: that you also may keep the day of Scenopegia, and the day of the fire, that was given when Nehemias offered sacrifice, after the temple and the altar was built.\n19 For when our fathers were led into Persia, the priests that then were worshippers of God took privately the fire from the altar, and hid it in a valley where there was a deep pit without water, and there they kept it safe, so that the place was unknown to all men.\n20 But when many years had passed, and it pleased God that Nehemias should be sent by the king of Persia, he sent some of the posterity of those priests that had hid it, to seek for the fire: and as they told us, they found no fire, but thick water.\n21 Then he bade them draw it up, and bring it to him: and the priest Nehemias commanded the sacrifices that were laid on, to be sprinkled with the same water, both the wood, and the things that were laid upon it.\n22 And when this was done, and the time came that the sun shone out, which before was in a cloud, there was a great fire kindled, so that all wondered.\n23 And all the priests made prayer, while the sacrifice was consuming, Jonathan beginning, and the rest answering.\n24 And the prayer of Nehemias was after this manner: O Lord God, Creator of all things, dreadful and strong, just and merciful, who alone art the good king,\n25 Who alone art gracious, who alone art just, and almighty, and eternal, who deliverest Israel from all evil, who didst choose the fathers and didst sanctify them:\n26 Receive the sacrifice for all thy people Israel, and preserve thy own portion, and sanctify it.\n27 Gather together our scattered people, deliver them that are slaves to the Gentiles, and look upon them that are despised and abhorred: that the Gentiles may know that thou art our God.\n28 Punish them that oppress us, and that treat us injuriously with pride.\n29 Establish thy people in thy holy place, as Moses hath spoken.\n30 And the priests sung hymns till the sacrifice was consumed.\n31 And when the sacrifice was consumed, Nehemias commanded the water that was left to be poured out upon the great stones.\n32 Which being done, there was kindled a flame from them: but it was consumed by the light that shined from the altar.\n33 And when this matter became public, it was told to the king of Persia, that in the place where the priests that were led away, had hid the fire, there appeared water, with which Nehemias and they that were with him had purified the sacrifices.\n34 And the king considering, and diligently examining the matter, made a temple for it, that he might prove what had happened.\n35 And when he had proved it, he gave the priests many goods, and divers presents, and he took and distributed them to them with his own hand.\n36 And Nehemias called this place Nephthar, which is interpreted purification.

Chapter 6\n1 Now king Antiochus was going through the higher countries, and he heard that the city of Elymais in Persia was greatly renowned, and abounding in silver and gold.\n2 And that there was in it a temple, exceeding rich: and coverings of gold, and breastplates, and shields which king Alexander, son of Philip the Macedonian that reigned first in Greece, had left there.\n3 Lo, he came, and sought to take the city and to pillage it: But he was not able, because the design was known to them that were in the city.\n4 And they rose up against him in battle, and he fled away from thence, and departed with great sadness, and returned towards Babylonia.\n5 And whilst he was in Persia, there came one that told him, how the armies that were in the land of Juda were put to flight:\n6 And that Lysias went with a very great power, and was put to flight before the face of the Jews, and that they were grown strong by the armour, and power, and store of spoils, which they had gotten out of the camps which they had destroyed:\n7 And that they had thrown down the abomination which he had set up upon the altar in Jerusalem, and that they had compassed about the sanctuary with high walls as before, and Bethsura also his city.\n8 And it came to pass when the king heard these words, that he was struck with fear, and exceedingly moved: and he laid himself down upon his bed, and fell sick for grief, because it had not fallen out to him as he imagined.\n9 And he remained there many days: for great grief came more and more and more upon him, and he made account that he should die.\n10 And he called for all his friends, and said to them: Sleep is gone from my eyes, and I am fallen away, and my heart is cast down for anxiety.\n11 And I said in my heart: Into how much tribulation am I come, and into what floods of sorrow, wherein now I am: I that was pleasant and beloved in my power!\n12 But now I remember the evils that I have done in Jerusalem, from whence also I took away all the spoils of gold, and of silver that were in it, and I sent to destroy the inhabitants of Juda without cause.\n13 I know therefore that for this cause these evils have found me: and behold I perish with great grief in a strange land.\n14 Then he called Philip, one of his friends, and he made him regent over all his kingdom.\n15 And he gave him the crown, and his robe, and his ring, that he should go to Antiochus his son, and should bring him up for the kingdom.\n16 So king Antiochus died there in the year one hundred and forty-nine.\n17 And Lysias understood that the king was dead, and he set up Antiochus his son to reign, whom he brought up young: and he called his name Eupator.\n18 Now they that were in the castle, had shut up the Israelites round about the holy places: and they were continually seeking their hurt, and to strengthen the Gentiles.\n19 And Judas purposed to destroy them: and he called together all the people, to besiege them.\n20 And they came together, and besieged them in the year one hundred and fifty, and they made battering slings and engines.\n21 And some of the besieged got out: and some wicked men of Israel joined themselves unto them.\n22 And they went to the king, and said: How long dost thou delay to execute the judgment, and to revenge our brethren?\n23 We determined to serve thy father and to do according to his orders, and obey his edicts:\n24 And for this they of our nation are alienated from us, and have slain as many of us as they could find, and have spoiled our inheritances.\n25 Neither have they put forth their hand against us only, but also against all our borders.\n26 And behold they have approached this day to the castle of Jerusalem to take it, and they have fortified the stronghold of Bethsura:\n27 And unless thou speedily prevent them, they will do greater things than these, and thou shalt not be able to subdue them.\n28 Now when the king heard this, he was angry: and he called together all his friends, and the captains of his army, and them that were over the horsemen.\n29 There came also to him from other realms, and from the islands of the sea hired troops.\n30 And the number of his army was an hundred thousand footmen, and twenty thousand horsemen, and thirty-two elephants, trained to battle.\n31 And they went through Idumea, and approached to Bethsura, and fought many days, and they made engines: but they sallied forth and burnt them with fire, and fought manfully.\n32 And Judas departed from the castle, and removed the camp to Bethzacharam, over against the king's camp.\n33 And the king rose before it was light, and made his troops march on fiercely towards the way of Bethzacharam: and the armies made themselves ready for the battle, and they sounded the trumpets:\n34 And they shewed the elephants the blood of grapes, and mulberries to provoke them to fight.\n35 And they distributed the beasts by the legions: and there stood by every elephant a thousand men in coats of mail, and with helmets of brass on their heads: and five hundred horsemen set in order were chosen for every beast.\n36 These before the time wheresoever the beast was, the were there: and withersoever it went, they went, and they departed not from it.\n37 And upon the beast, there were strong wooden towers, which covered every one of them: and engines upon them: and upon every one thirty-two valiant men, who fought from above; and an Indian to rule the beast.\n38 And the rest of the horsemen he placed on this side and on that side at the two wings, with trumpets to stir up the army, and to hasten them forward that stood thick together in the legions thereof.\n39 Now when the sun shone upon the shields of gold, and of brass, the mountains glittered therewith, and they shone like lamps of fire.\n40 And part of the king's army was distinguished by the high mountains, and the other part by the low places: and they marched on warily and orderly.\n41 And all the inhabitants of the land were moved at the noise of their multitude, and the marching of the company, and the rattling of the armour, for the army was exceeding great and strong.\n42 And Judas and his army drew near for battle: and there fell of the king's army six hundred men.\n43 And Eleazar the son of Saura saw one of the beasts harnessed with the king's harness: and it was higher than the other beasts: and it seemed to him that the king was on it:\n44 And he exposed himself to deliver his people and to get himself an everlasting name.\n45 And he ran up to it boldly in the midst of the legion, killing on the right hand, and on the left, and they fell by him on this side and that side.\n46 And he went between the feet of the elephant, and put himself under it: and slew it, and it fell to the ground upon him, and he died there.\n47 Then they seeing the strength of the king and the fierceness of his army, turned away from them.\n48 But the king's army went up against them to Jerusalem: and the king's army pitched their tents against Judea and mount Sion.\n49 And he made peace with them that were in Bethsura: and they came forth out of the city, because they had no victuals, being shut up there, for it was the year of rest to the land.\n50 And the king took Bethsura: and he placed there a garrison to keep it.\n51 And he turned his army against the sanctuary for many days: and he set up there battering slings, and engines and instruments to cast fire, and engines to cast stones and javelins, and pieces to shoot arrows, and slings.\n52 And they also made engines against their engines, and they fought for many days.\n53 But there were no victuals in the city, because it was the seventh year: and such as had stayed in Judea of them that came from among the nations, had eaten the residue of all that which had been stored up.\n54 And there remained in the holy places but a few, for the famine had prevailed over them: and they were dispersed every man to his own place.\n55 Now Lysias heard that Philip, whom king Antiochus while he lived had appointed to bring up his son Antiochus, and to reign, to be king,\n56 Was returned from Persia, and Media, with the army that went with him, and that he sought to take upon him the affairs of the kingdom:\n57 Wherefore he made haste to go, and say to the king and to the captains of the army: We decay daily, and our provision of victuals is small, and the place that we lay siege to is strong, and it lieth upon us to take order for the affairs of the kingdom.\n58 Now therefore let us come to an agreement with these men, and make peace with them and with all their nation.\n59 And let us covenant with them, that they may live according to their own laws as before. For because of our despising their laws, they have been provoked, and have done all these things.\n60 And the proposal was acceptable in the sight of the king, and of the princes: and he sent to them to make peace: and they accepted of it.\n61 And the king and the princes swore to them: and they came out of the stronghold.\n62 Then the king entered into mount Sion, and saw the strength of the place: and he quickly broke the oath that he had taken, and gave commandment to throw down the wall round about.\n63 And he departed in haste, and returned to Antioch, where he found Philip master of the city: and he fought against him, and took the city.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "From which book and what chapter does \"But seeing that Naas king of the children of Ammon was come against you, you said to me: Nay, but a king shall reign over us: whereas the Lord your God was your king.\" come?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from 1 Samuel, chapter 12.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\n1 Samuel Chapter 12\n1 And Samuel said to all Israel: Behold I have hearkened to your voice in all that you said to me, and have made a king over you.\n2 And now the king goeth before you: but I am old and greyheaded: and my sons are with you: having then conversed with you from my youth unto this day, behold here I am.\n3 Speak of me before the Lord, and before his anointed, whether I have taken any man's ox, or ass: If I have wronged any man, if I have oppressed any man, if I have taken a bribe at any man's hand: and I will despise it this day, and will restore it to you.\n4 And they said: Thou hast not wronged us, nor oppressed us, nor taken ought at any man's hand.\n5 And he said to them: The Lord is witness against you, and his anointed is witness this day, that you have not found any thing in my hand.

For they all knew that his father was a Gentile.\n4 And as they passed through the cities, they delivered unto them the decrees for to keep, that were decreed by the apostles and ancients who were at Jerusalem.\n5 And the churches were confirmed in faith, and increased in number daily.\n6 And when they had passed through Phrygia, and the country of Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia.\n7 And when they were come into Mysia, they attempted to go into Bythynia, and the Spirit of Jesus suffered them not.\n8 And when they had passed through Mysia, they went down to Troas.\n9 And a vision was shewed to Paul in the night, which was a man of Macedonia standing and beseeching him, and saying: Pass over into Macedonia, and help us.\n10 And as soon as he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go into Macedonia, being assured that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.\n11 And sailing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the day following to Neapolis;\n12 And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city of part of Macedonia, a colony. And we were in this city some days conferring together.\n13 And upon the sabbath day, we went forth without the gate by a river side, where it seemed that there was prayer; and sitting down, we spoke to the women that were assembled.\n14 And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one that worshipped God, did hear: whose heart the Lord opened to attend to those things which were said by Paul.\n15 And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us, saying: If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide there. And she constrained us.\n16 And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain girl, having a pythonical spirit, met us, who brought to her masters much gain by divining.\n17 This same following Paul and us, cried out, saying: These men are the servants of the most high God, who preach unto you the way of salvation.\n18 And this she did many days. But Paul being grieved, turned, and said to the spirit: I command thee, in the name of Jesus Christ, to go out from her.

And he gave him to his mother.\n16 And there came a fear on them all: and they glorified God, saying: A great prophet is risen up among us: and, God hath visited his people.\n17 And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judea, and throughout all the country round about.\n18 And John's disciples told him of all these things.\n19 And John called to him two of his disciples, and sent them to Jesus, saying: Art thou he that art to come; or look we for another?\n20 And when the men were come unto him, they said: John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying: Art thou he that art to come; or look we for another?\n21 (And in that same hour, he cured many of their diseases, and hurts, and evil spirits: and to many that were blind he gave sight.)\n22 And answering, he said to them: Go and relate to John what you have heard and seen: the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are made clean, the deaf hear, the dead rise again, to the poor the gospel is preached:\n23 And blessed is he whosoever shall not be scandalized in me.\n24 And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak to the multitudes concerning John. What went ye out into the desert to see? a reed shaken with the wind?\n25 But what went you out to see? a man clothed in soft garments? Behold they that are in costly apparel and live delicately, are in the houses of kings.\n26 But what went you out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet.\n27 This is he of whom it is written: Behold I send my angel before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.\n28 For I say to you: Amongst those that are born of women, there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist. But he that is the lesser in the kingdom of God, is greater than he.\n29 And all the people hearing, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with John's baptism.\n30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers despised the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized by him.\n31 And the Lord said: Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?\n32 They are like to children sitting in the marketplace, and speaking one to another, and saying: We have piped to you, and you have not danced: we have mourned, and you have not wept.\n33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and you say: He hath a devil.\n34 The Son of man is come eating and drinking: and you say: Behold a man that is a glutton and a drinker of wine, a friend of publicans and sinners.\n35 And wisdom is justified by all her children.\n36 And one of the Pharisees desired him to eat with him. And he went into the house of the Pharisee, and sat down to meat.\n37 And behold a woman that was in the city, a sinner, when she knew that he sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of ointment;\n38 And standing behind at his feet, she began to wash his feet, with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.\n39 And the Pharisee, who had invited him, seeing it, spoke within himself, saying: This man, if he were a prophet, would know surely who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him, that she is a sinner.\n40 And Jesus answering, said to him: Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. But he said: Master, say it.\n41 A certain creditor had two debtors, the one who owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.\n42 And whereas they had not wherewith to pay, he forgave them both. Which therefore of the two loveth him most?\n43 Simon answering, said: I suppose that he to whom he forgave most. And he said to him: Thou hast judged rightly.\n44 And turning to the woman, he said unto Simon: Dost thou see this woman? I entered into thy house, thou gavest me no water for my feet; but she with tears hath washed my feet, and with her hairs hath wiped them.\n45 Thou gavest me no kiss; but she, since she came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.\n46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she with ointment hath anointed my feet.\n47 Wherefore I say to thee: Many sins are forgiven her, because she hath loved much. But to whom less is forgiven, he loveth less.\n48 And he said to her: Thy sins are forgiven thee.\n49 And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves: Who is this that forgiveth sins also?\n50 And he said to the woman: Thy faith hath made thee safe, go in peace.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "- Book: Mark\n- Chapter: 12\n- Verse: 30", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Mark 12:30 in the New Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And thou shalt love the Lord thy God, with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind, and with thy whole strength.

And Pharao's heart was hardened, and he did not let the people go.\n8 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron: Take to you handfuls of ashes out of the chimney, and let Moses sprinkle it in the air in

gathered together out of the fields, which the hail shall fall upon, shall die.\n20 He that feared the word of the Lord among Pharao's servants, made his servants and his cattle flee into houses:\n21 But he that regarded not the word of the Lord, left his servants and his cattle in the fields:\n22 And the Lord said to Moses: Stretch forth thy hand towards heaven, that there may be hail in the whole land of Egypt, upon men, and upon beasts, and upon every herb of the field in the land of Egypt.\n23 And Moses stretched forth his rod towards heaven, and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and lightning running along the ground: and the Lord rained hail upon the land of Egypt.\n24 And the hail and fire mixed with it drove on together: and it was of so great bigness, as never before was seen in the whole land of Egypt since that nation was founded.\n25 And the hail destroyed through all the land of Egypt all things that were in the fields, both man and beast: and the hail smote every herb of the field, and it broke every tree of the country.\n26 Only in the land of Gessen, where the children of Israel were, the hail fell not.\n27 And Pharao sent and called Moses and Aaron, saying to them: I have sinned this time also; the Lord is just: I and my people are wicked.\n28 Pray ye to the Lord, that the thunderings of God and the hail may cease: that I may let you go, and that you may stay here no longer.\n29 Moses said: As soon as I am gone out of the city, I will stretch forth my hands to the Lord, and the thunders shall cease, and the hail shall be no more: that thou mayst know that the earth is the Lord's.\n30 But I know that neither thou, nor thy servants do yet fear the Lord God.\n31 The flax therefore and the barley were hurt, because the barley was green, and the flax was now boiled:\n32 But the wheat, and other winter corn were not hurt, because they were lateward.\n33 And when Moses was gone from Pharao out of the city, he stretched forth his hands to the Lord: and the thunders and the hail ceased, neither did there drop any more rain upon the earth.\n34 And Pharao seeing that the rain and the hail, and the thunders were ceased, increased his sin.\n35 And

So when she was coming in, and made as if she were another woman,\n6 Ahias heard the sound of her feet coming in at the door, and said: Come in, thou wife of Jeroboam: why dost thou feign thyself to be another? But I am sent to thee with heavy tidings.\n7 Go, and tell Jeroboam: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Forasmuch as I exalted thee from among the people, and made thee prince over my people Israel:\n8 And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it to thee, and thou hast not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and followed me with all his heart, doing that which was well pleasing in my sight:\n9 But hast done evil above all that were before thee, and hast made thee strange gods and molten gods, to provoke me to anger, and hast cast me behind thy back:\n10 Therefore behold I will bring evils upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut of from Jeroboam him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up, and the last in Israel: and I will sweep away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as dung is swept away till all be clean.\n11 Them that shall die of Jeroboam in the city, the dogs shall eat: and them that shall die in the field, the birds of the air shall devour: for the Lord hath spoken it.\n12 Arise thou therefore, and go to thy house: and when thy feet shall be entering into the city, the child shall die,\n13 And all Israel shall mourn for him, and shall bury him: for he only of Jeroboam shall be laid in a sepulchre, because in his regard there is found a good word from the Lord the God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam.\n14 And the Lord hath appointed himself a king over Israel, who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam in this day, and in this time:\n15 And the Lord God shall strike Israel as a reed is shaken in the water: and he shall root up Israel out of this good land, which he gave to their fathers, and shall scatter them beyond the river: because they have made to themselves groves, to provoke the Lord.\n16 And the Lord shall give up Israel for the sins of Jeroboam, who hath sinned, and made Israel to sin.\n17 And the wife of Jeroboam arose, and departed, and came to Thersa: and when she was coming in to the threshold of the house, the child died;\n18 And they buried him.

13.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\n1 Maccabees Chapter 13\n1 Now Simon heard that Tryphon was gathering together a very great army, to invade the land of Juda, and to destroy it.\n2 And seeing that the people was in dread, and in fear, he went up to Jerusalem, and assembled the people:\n3 And exhorted them, saying: You know what great battles I and my brethren, and the house of my father, have fought for the laws, and the sanctuary, and the distresses that we have seen:\n4 By reason whereof all my brethren have lost their lives for Israel's sake, and I am left alone.\n5 And now far be it from me to spare my life in any time of trouble: for I am not better than my brethren.\n6 I will avenge then my nation and the sanctuary, and our children, and wives: for all the heathens are gathered together to destroy us out of mere malice.\n7 And the spirit of the people was enkindled as soon as they heard these words.\n8 And they answered with a loud voice, saying: Thou art our leader in the place of Judas, and Jonathan thy brother.\n9 Fight thou our battles, and we will do whatsoever thou shalt say to us.\n10 So gathering together all the men of war, he made haste to finish all the walls of Jerusalem, and he fortified it round about.\n11 And he sent Jonathan the son of Absalom, and with him a new army into Joppe, and he cast out them that were in it, and himself remained there.\n12 And Tryphon removed from Ptolemais with a great army, to invade the land of Juda, and Jonathan was with him in custody.\n13 But Simon pitched in Addus, over against the plain.\n14 And when Tryphon understood that Simon was risen up in the place of his brother Jonathan, and that he meant to join battle with him, he sent messengers to him,\n15 Saying: We have detained thy brother Jonathan for the money that he owed in the king's account, by reason of the affairs which he had the management of.\n16 But now send a hundred talents of silver, and his two sons for hostages, that when he is set at liberty he may not revolt from us, and we will release him.\n17 Now Simon knew that he spoke deceitfully to him, nevertheless he ordered the money, and the children to be sent: lest he should bring upon himself a great hatred of the people of Israel, who might have said:\n18 Because he sent not the money, and the children, therefore is he lost.\n19 So he sent the children, and the hundred talents: and he lied, and did not let Jonathan go.\n20 And after this Tryphon entered within the country, to destroy it: and they went about by the way that leadeth to Ador: and Simon and his army marched to every place whithersoever they went.\n21 And they that were in the castle, sent messengers to Tryphon, that he should make haste to come through the desert, and send them victuals.\n22 And Tryphon made ready all his horsemen to come that night: but there fell a very great snow, and he came not into the country of Galaad.\n23 And when he approached to Bascama, he slew Jonathan and his sons there.\n24 And Tryphon returned, and went into his own country.\n25 And Simon sent, and took the bones of Jonathan his brother, and buried them in Modin, in the city of his fathers.\n26 And all Israel bewailed him with great lamentation: and they mourned for him many days.\n27 And Simon built over the sepulchre of his father and of his brethren, a building lofty to the sight, of polished stone behind and before:\n28 And he set up seven pyramids one against another for his father and his mother, and his four brethren:\n29 And round about these he set great pillars: and upon the pillars arms for a perpetual memory: and by the arms ships carved, which might be seen by all that sailed on the sea.\n30 This is the sepulchre that he made in Modin even unto this day.\n31 But Tryphon when he was upon a journey with the young king Antiochus, treacherously slew him.\n32 And he reigned in his place, and put on the crown of Asia: and brought great evils upon the land.\n33 And Simon built up the strong holds of Judea, fortifying them with high towers, and great walls, and gates, and bars: and he stored up victuals in the fortresses.\n34 And Simon chose men and sent to king Demetrius, to the end that he should grant an immunity to the land: for all that Tryphon did was to spoil.\n35 And king Demetrius in answer to this request, wrote a letter in this manner:\n36 King Demetrius to Simon the high priest, and friend of kings, and to the ancients, and to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n37 The golden crown, and the palm, which you sent, we have received: and we are ready to make a firm peace with you, and to write to the king's chief officers to release you the things that we have released.\n38 For all that we have decreed in your favour, shall stand in force.

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

So Pharao awoke.\n5 He slept again, and dreamed another dream: Seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk full and fair:\n6 Then seven other ears sprung up thin and blasted,\n7 And devoured all the beauty of the former. Pharao awaked after his rest:\n8 And when morning was come, being struck with fear, he sent to all the interpreters of Egypt, and to all the wise men: and they being called for, he told them his dream, and there was not any one that could interpret it.\n9 Then at length the chief butler remembering, said: I confess my sin:\n10 The king being angry with his servants, commanded me and the chief baker to be cast into the prison of the captain of the soldiers:\n11 Where in one night both of us dreamed a dream foreboding things to come.\n12 There was there a young man a Hebrew, servant to the same captain of the soldiers: to whom we told our dreams,\n13 And we heard what afterwards the event of the thing proved to be so. For I was restored to my office: and he was hanged upon a gibbet.\n14 Forthwith at the king's command, Joseph was brought out of the prison, and they shaved him, and changing his apparel, brought him in to him.\n15 And he said to him: I have dreamed dreams, and there is no one that can expound them: Now I have heard that thou art very wise at interpreting them.\n16 Joseph answered: Without me, God shall give Pharao a prosperous answer.\n17 So Pharao told what he had dreamed: Methought I stood upon the bank of the river,\n18 And seven kine came up out of the river exceeding beautiful and full of flesh: and they grazed on green places in a marshy pasture.\n19 And behold, there followed these, other seven kine, so very ill favoured and lean, that I never saw the like in the land of Egypt:\n20 And they devoured and consumed the former,\n21 And yet gave no mark of their being full: but were as lean and ill favoured as before. I awoke, and then fell asleep again,\n22 And dreamed a dream: Seven ears of corn grew upon one stalk, full and very fair.\n23 Other seven also thin and blasted, sprung of the stock:\n24 And they devoured the beauty of the former: I told this dream to the conjecturers, and there is no man that can expound it.\n25 Joseph answered: The king's dream is one: God hath shewn to Pharao what he is about to do.\n26 The seven beautiful kine, and the seven full ears, are seven years of plenty: and both contain the same meaning of the dream.\n27 And the seven lean and thin kine that came up after them, and the seven thin ears that were blasted with the burning wind, are seven years of famine to come:\n28 Which shall be fulfilled in this order:\n29 Behold, there shall come seven years of great plenty in the whole land of Egypt:\n30 After which shall follow other seven years of so great scarcity, that all the abundance before shall be forgotten: for the famine shall consume all the land,\n31 And the greatness of the scarcity shall destroy the greatness of the plenty.\n32 And for that thou didst see the second time a dream pertaining to the same thing: it is a token of the certainty, and that the word of God cometh to pass, and is fulfilled speedily.\n33 Now therefore let the king provide a wise and industrious man, and make him ruler over the land of Egypt:\n34 That he may appoint overseers over all the countries: and gather into barns the fifth part of the fruits, during the seven fruitful years,\n35 That shall now presently ensue: and let all the corn be laid up under Pharao's hands and be reserved in the cities.\n36 And let it be in readiness, against the famine of seven years to come, which shall oppress Egypt, and the land shall not be consumed with scarcity.\n37 The counsel pleased Pharao and all his servants.\n38 And he said to them: Can we find such another man, that is full of the spirit of God?\n39 He said therefore to Joseph: Seeing God hath shewn thee all that thou hast said, can I find one wiser and one like unto thee?\n40 Thou shalt be over my house, and at the commandment of thy mouth all the people shall obey: only in the kingly throne will I be above thee.\n41 And again Pharao said to Joseph: Behold, I have appointed thee over the whole land of Egypt.\n42 And he took his ring from his own hand, and gave it into his hand: and he put upon him a robe of silk, and put a chain of gold about his neck.\n43 And he made him go up into his second chariot, the crier proclaiming that all should bow their knee before him, and that they should know he was made governor over the whole land of Egypt.\n44 And the king said to Joseph: I am Pharao; without thy commandment no man shall move hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.\n45 And he turned his name, and called him in the Egyptian tongue, The saviour of the world.

And he said to them: Go to Joseph: and do all that he shall say to you.\n56 And the famine increased daily in all the land: and Joseph opened all the barns, and sold to the Egyptians: for the famine had oppressed them also.\n57 And all provinces came into Egypt, to buy food, and to seek some relief of their want.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"But the rest whom thou shalt have after them, shall be thine, and shall be called by the name of their brethren in their possessions.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from Genesis, chapter 48.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\nGenesis Chapter 48\n1 After these things, it was told Joseph that his father was sick: and he set out to go to him, taking his two sons Manasses and Ephraim.\n2 And it was told the old man: Behold thy son Joseph cometh to thee.

Tell me therefore the dream, that I may know that you also give a true interpretation thereof.\n10 Then the Chaldeans answered before the king, and said: There is no man upon earth, that can accomplish thy word, O king, neither doth any king, though great and mighty, ask such a thing of any diviner, or wise man, or Chaldean.\n11 For the thing that thou askest, O king, is difficult; nor can any one be found that can shew it before the king, except the gods, whose conversation is not with men.\n12 Upon hearing this, the king in fury, and in great wrath, commanded that all the wise men of Babylon should be put to death.\n13 And the decree being gone forth, the wise men were slain: and Daniel and his companions were sought for, to be put to death.\n14 Then Daniel inquired concerning the law and the sentence, of Arioch the general of the king's army, who was gone forth to kill the wise men of Babylon.\n15 And he asked him that had received the orders of the king, why so cruel a sentence was gone forth from the face of the king. And when Arioch had told the matter to Daniel,\n16 Daniel went in and desired of the king, that he would give him time to resolve the question and declare it to the king.\n17 And he went into his house, and told the matter to Ananias, and Misael, and Azarias his companions:\n18 To the end that they should ask mercy at the face of the God of heaven concerning this secret, and that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.\n19 Then was the mystery revealed to Daniel by a vision in the night: and Daniel blessed the God of heaven,\n20 And speaking he said: Blessed be the name of the Lord from eternity and for evermore: for wisdom and fortitude are his.\n21 And he changeth times and ages: taketh away kingdoms and establisheth them, giveth wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to them that have understanding.\n22 He revealeth deep and hidden things, and knoweth what is in darkness: and light is with him.\n23 To thee, O God of our fathers, I give thanks, and I praise thee: because thou hast given me wisdom and strength: and now thou hast shewn me what we desired of thee, for thou hast made known to us, the king's discourse.\n24 After this Daniel went in to Arioch, to whom the king had given orders to destroy the wise men of Babylon, and he spoke thus to him: Destroy not the wise men of Babylon: bring me in before the king, and I will tell the solution to the king.\n25 Then Arioch in haste brought in Daniel to the king, and said to him: I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Juda, that will resolve the question to the king.\n26 The king answered, and said to Daniel, whose name was Baltassar: Thinkest thou indeed that thou canst tell me the dream that I saw, and the interpretation thereof?\n27 And Daniel made answer before the king, and said: The secret that the king desireth to know, none of the wise men, or the philosophers, or the diviners, or the soothsayers can declare to the king.\n28 But there is a God in heaven that revealeth mysteries, who hath shewn to thee, O king Nabuchodonosor, what is to come to pass in the latter times. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these:\n29 Thou, O king, didst begin to think in thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth mysteries shewed thee what shall come to pass.\n30 To me also this secret is revealed, not by any wisdom that I have more than all men alive: but that the interpretation might be made manifest to the king, and thou mightest know the thoughts of thy mind.\n31 Thou, O king, sawest, and behold there was as it were a great statue: this statue, which was great and high, tall of stature, stood before thee, and the look thereof was terrible.\n32 The head of this statue was of fine gold, but the breast and the arms of silver, and the belly and the thighs of brass:\n33 And the legs of iron, the feet part of iron and part of clay.\n34 Thus thou sawest, till a stone was cut out of a mountain without hands: and it struck the statue upon the feet thereof that were of iron and of clay, and broke them in pieces.\n35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of a summer's thrashingfloor, and they were carried away by the wind: and there was no place found for them: but the stone that struck the statue, became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.\n36 This is the dream: we will also tell the interpretation thereof before thee, O king.\n37 Thou art a king of kings: and the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, and strength, and power, and glory:\n38 And all places wherein the children of men, and the beasts of the field do dwell: he hath also given the birds of the air into thy hand, and hath put all things under thy power: thou therefore art the head of gold.\n39 And after thee shall rise up another kingdom, inferior to thee, of silver: and another third kingdom of brass, which shall rule over all the world.\n40 And the fourth kingdom shall be as iron.

in the earth.\n6 In those days shall Juda be saved, and Israel shall dwell confidently: and this is the name that they shall call him: the Lord our just one.\n7 Therefore behold the days to come, saith the Lord, and they shall say no more: The Lord liveth, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt:\n8 But the Lord liveth, who hath brought out, and brought hither the seed of the house of Israel from the land of the north, and out of all the lands, to which I had cast them forth: and they shall dwell in their own land.\n9 To the prophets: My heart is broken within me, all my bones tremble: I am become as a drunken man, and as a man full of wine, at the presence of the Lord, and at the presence of his holy words.\n10 Because the land is full of adulterers, because the land hath mourned by reason of cursing, the fields of the desert are dried up: and their course is become evil, and their strength unlike.\n11 For the prophet and the priest are defiled: and in my house I have found their wickedness, saith the Lord.\n12 Therefore their way shall be as a slippery way in the dark: for they shall be driven on, and fall therein: for I will bring evils upon them, the year of their visitation, saith the Lord.\n13 And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria: they prophesied in Baal, and deceived my people Israel.\n14 And I have seen the likeness of adulterers, and the way of lying in the prophets of Jerusalem: and they strengthened the hands of the wicked, that no man should return from his evil doings: they are all become unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrha.\n15 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts to the prophets: Behold I will feed them with wormwood, and will give them gall to drink: for from the prophets of Jerusalem corruption has gone forth into all the land.\n16 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Hearken not to the words of the prophets that prophesy to you, and deceive you: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the Lord.\n17 They say to them that blaspheme me: The Lord hath said: You shall have peace: and to every one that walketh in the perverseness of his own heart, they have said: No evil shall come upon you.\n18 For who hath stood in the counsel of the Lord, and hath seen and heard his word? Who hath considered his word and heard it?\n19 Behold the whirlwind of the Lord's indignation shall come forth, and a tempest shall break out and come upon the head of the wicked.\n20 The wrath of the Lord shall not return till he execute it, and till he accomplish the thought of his heart: in the latter days you shall understand his counsel.\n21 I did not send prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.\n22 If they stood in my counsel, and had made my words known to my people, I should have turned them from their evil way and from their wicked doings.\n23 Am I, think ye, a God at hand, saith the Lord, and not a God afar off?\n24 Shall a man be hid in secret places, and I not see him, saith the Lord? do not I fill heaven and earth, saith the Lord?\n25 I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in my name, and say: I have dreamed, I have dreamed.\n26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies, and that prophesy the delusions of their own heart?\n27 Who seek to make my people forget my name through their dreams, which they tell every man to his neighbour: as their fathers forgot my name for Baal.\n28 The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream: and he that hath my word, let him speak my word with truth: what hath the chaff to do with the wheat, saith the Lord?\n29 Are not my words as a fire, saith the Lord: and as a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?\n30 Therefore behold I am against the prophets, saith the Lord: who steal my words every one from his neighbour.\n31 Behold I am against the prophets, saith the Lord: who use their tongues, and say: The Lord saith it.\n32 Behold I am against the prophets that have lying dreams, saith the Lord: and tell them, and cause my people to err by their lying, and by their wonders: when I sent them not, nor commanded them, who have not profited this people at all, saith the Lord.\n33 If therefore this people, or the prophet, or the priest shall ask thee, saying: What is the burden of the Lord? thou shalt say to them: You are the burden: for I will cast you away, saith the Lord.\n34 And as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people that shall say: The burden of the Lord: I will visit upon that man, and upon his house.\n35 Thus shall you say every one to his neighbour, and to his brother: What hath the Lord answered? and what hath the Lord spoken?\n36 And the burden of the Lord shall be mentioned no more, for every man's word shall be his burden: for you have perverted the words of the living God, of the Lord of hosts our God.\n37 Thus shalt thou say to the prophet: What hath the Lord answered thee? and what hath the Lord spoken?\n38 But if you shall say: The burden of the Lord: therefore thus saith the Lord: Because you have said this word: The burden of the Lord: and I have sent to you saying: Say not, The burden of the Lord:\n39 Therefore behold I will take you away carrying you, and will forsake you, and the city which I gave to you, and to your fathers, out of my presence.\n40 And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame which shall never be forgotten.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Find and read Job chapter 21, verse 24", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Old Testament\nJob 21:24 (Douay Rheims)\n\"His bowels are full of fat, and his bones are moistened with marrow.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which chapter and book contains \"Beth.

And there was a man, whose right hand was withered.\n7 And the scribes and Pharisees watched if he would heal on the sabbath; that they might find an accusation against him.\n8 But he knew their thoughts; and said to the man who had the withered hand: Arise, and stand forth in the midst. And rising he stood forth.\n9 Then Jesus said to them: I ask you, if it be lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil; to save life, or to destroy?\n10 And looking round about on them all, he said to the man: Stretch forth thy hand. And he stretched it forth: and his hand was restored.\n11 And they were filled with madness; and they talked one with another, what they might do to Jesus.\n12 And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and he passed the whole night in the prayer of God.\n13 And when day was come, he called unto him his disciples; and he chose twelve of them (whom also he named apostles):\n14 Simon, whom he surnamed Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,\n15 Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon who is called Zelotes,\n16 And Jude, the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, who was the traitor.\n17 And coming down with them, he stood in a plain place, and the company of his disciples, and a very great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast both of Tyre and Sidon,\n18 Who were come to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases. And they that were troubled with unclean spirits, were cured.\n19 And all the multitude sought to touch him, for virtue went out from him, and healed all.\n20 And he, lifting up his eyes on his disciples, said: Blessed are ye poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.\n21 Blessed are ye that hunger now: for you shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for you shall laugh.\n22 Blessed shall you be when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.\n23 Be glad in that day and rejoice; for behold, your reward is great in heaven. For according to these things did their fathers to the prophets.\n24 But woe to you that are rich: for you have your consolation.\n25 Woe to you that are filled: for you shall hunger. Woe to you that now laugh: for you shall mourn and weep.\n26 Woe to you when men shall bless you: for according to these things did their fathers to the false prophets.\n27 But I say to you that hear: Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you.\n28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them that calumniate you.\n29 And to him that striketh thee on the one cheek, offer also the other. And him that taketh away from thee thy cloak, forbid not to take thy coat also.\n30 Give to every one that asketh thee, and of him that taketh away thy goods, ask them not again.\n31 And as you would that men should do to you, do you also to them in like manner.\n32 And if you love them that love you, what thanks are to you? for sinners also love those that love them.\n33 And if you do good to them who do good to you, what thanks are to you? for sinners also do this.\n34 And if you lend to them of whom you hope to receive, what thanks are to you? for sinners also lend to sinners, for to receive as much.\n35 But love ye your enemies: do good, and lend, hoping for nothing thereby: and your reward shall be great, and you shall be the sons of the Highest; for he is kind to the unthankful, and to the evil.\n36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.\n37 Judge not, and you shall not be judged.

For God said:\n4 Honour thy father and mother: And: He that shall curse father or mother, let him die the death.\n5 But you say: Whosoever shall say to father or mother, The gift whatsoever proceedeth from me, shall profit thee.\n6 And he shall not honour his father or his mother: and you have made void the commandment of God for your tradition.\n7 Hypocrites, well hath Isaias prophesied of you, saying:\n8 This people honoureth me with their lips: but their heart is far from me.\n9 And in vain do they worship me, teaching doctrines and commandments of men.\n10 And having called together the multitudes unto him, he said to them: Hear ye and understand.\n11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man: but what cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.\n12 Then came his disciples, and said to him: Dost thou know that the Pharisees, when they heard this word, were scandalized?\n13 But he answering them, said: Every plant which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.\n14 Let them alone: they are blind, and leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into the pit.\n15 And Peter answering, said to him: Expound to us this parable.\n16 But he said: Are you also yet without understanding?\n17 Do you not understand, that whatsoever entereth into the mouth, goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the privy?\n18 But the things which proceed out of the mouth, come forth from the heart, and those things defile a man.\n19 For from the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false testimonies, blasphemies.\n20 These are the things that defile a man. But to eat with unwashed hands doth not defile a man.\n21 And Jesus went from thence, and retired into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.\n22 And behold a woman of Canaan who came out of those coasts, crying out, said to him: Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David: my daughter is grieviously troubled by the devil.\n23 Who answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying: Send her away, for she crieth after us:\n24 And he answering, said: I was not sent but to the sheep that are lost of the house of Israel.\n25 But she came and adored him, saying: Lord, help me.\n26 Who answering, said: It is not good to take the bread of the children, and to cast it to the dogs.\n27 But she said: Yea, Lord; for the whelps also eat of the crumbs that fall from the table of their masters.\n28 Then Jesus answering, said to her: O woman, great is thy faith: be it done to thee as thou wilt: and her daughter was cured from that hour.\n29 And when Jesus had passed away from thence, he came nigh the sea of Galilee.

Jesus therefore being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well. It was about the sixth hour.\n7 There cometh a woman of Samaria, to draw water. Jesus saith to her: Give me to drink.\n8 For his disciples were gone into the city to buy meats.\n9 Then that Samaritan woman saith to him: How dost thou, being a Jew, ask of me to drink, who am a Samaritan woman? For the Jews do not communicate with the Samaritans.\n10 Jesus answered, and said to her: If thou didst know the gift of God, and who he is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou perhaps wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.\n11 The woman saith to him: Sir, thou hast nothing wherein to draw, and the well is deep; from whence then hast thou living water?\n12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?\n13 Jesus answered, and said to her: Whosoever drinketh of this water, shall thirst again; but he that shall drink of the water that I will give him, shall not thirst for ever:\n14 But the water that I will give him, shall become in him a fountain of water, springing up into life everlasting.\n15 The woman saith to him: Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.\n16 Jesus saith to her: Go, call thy husband, and come hither.\n17 The woman answered, and said: I have no husband. Jesus said to her: Thou hast said well, I have no husband:\n18 For thou hast had five husbands: and he whom thou now hast, is not thy husband. This thou hast said truly.\n19 The woman saith to him: Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.\n20 Our fathers adored on this mountain, and you say, that at Jerusalem is the place where men must adore.\n21 Jesus saith to her: Woman, believe me, that the hour cometh, when you shall neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, adore the Father.\n22 You adore that which you know not: we adore that which we know; for salvation is of the Jews.\n23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true adorers shall adore the Father in spirit and in truth. For the Father also seeketh such to adore him.\n24 God is a spirit; and they that adore him, must adore him in spirit and in truth.\n25 The woman saith to him: I know that the Messias cometh (who is called Christ); therefore, when he is come, he will tell us all things.\n26 Jesus saith to her: I am he, who am speaking with thee.\n27 And immediately his disciples came; and they wondered that he talked with the woman. Yet no man said: What seekest thou? or, why talkest thou with her?\n28 The woman therefore left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men there:\n29 Come, and see a man who has told me all things whatsoever I have done. Is not he the Christ?\n30 They went therefore out of the city, and came unto him.\n31 In the mean time the disciples prayed him, saying: Rabbi, eat.\n32 But he said to them: I have meat to eat, which you know not.\n33 The disciples therefore said one to another: Hath any man brought him to eat?\n34 Jesus saith to them: My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, that I may perfect his work.\n35 Do you not say, There are yet four months, and then the harvest cometh? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes, and see the countries; for they are white already to harvest.\n36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life everlasting: that both he that soweth, and he that reapeth, may rejoice together.\n37 For in this is the saying true: That it is one man that soweth, and it is another that reapeth.\n38 I have sent you to reap that in which you did not labour: others have laboured, and you have entered into their labours.\n39 Now of that city many of the Samaritans believed in him, for the word of the woman giving testimony: He told me all things whatsoever I have done.\n40 So when the Samaritans were come to him, they desired that he would tarry there. And he abode there two days.\n41 And many more believed in him because of his own word.\n42 And they said to the woman: We now believe, not for thy saying: for we ourselves have heard him, and know that this is indeed the Saviour of the world.\n43 Now after two days, he departed thence, and went into Galilee.\n44 For Jesus himself gave testimony that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.\n45 And when he was come into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things he had done at Jerusalem on the festival day; for they also went to the festival day.\n46 He came again therefore into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine.

spoke to them, and to all the kindred of his mother's father, saying:\n2 Speak to all the men of Sichem: whether is better for you that seventy men all the sons of Jerobaal should rule over you, or that one man should rule over you? And withal consider that I am your bone, and your flesh.\n3 And his mother's brethren spoke of him to all the men of Sichem, all these words, and they inclined their hearts after Abimelech, saying: He is our brother:\n4 And they gave him seventy weight of silver out of the temple of Baalberith: wherewith he hired to himself men that were needy, and vagabonds, and they followed him.\n5 And he came to his father's house in Ephra, and slew his brethren the sons of Jerobaal, seventy men, upon one stone: and there remained only Joatham the youngest son of Jerobaal, who was hidden.\n6 And all the men of Sichem were gathered together, and all the families of the city of Mello: and they went and made Abimelech king, by the oak that stood in Sichem.\n7 This being told to Joatham, he went and stood on the top of mount Garizim: and lifting up his voice, he cried, and said: Hear me, ye men of Sichem, so may God hear you.\n8 The trees went to anoint a king over them: and they said to the olive tree: Reign thou over us.\n9 And it answered: Can I leave my fatness, which both gods and men make use of, to come to be promoted among the trees?\n10 And the trees said to the fig tree: Come thou and reign over us.\n11 And it answered them: Can I leave my sweetness, and my delicious fruits, and go to be promoted among the other trees?\n12 And the trees said to the vine: Come thou and reign over us.\n13 And it answered them: Can I forsake my wine, that cheereth God and men, and be promoted among the other trees?\n14 And all the trees said to the bramble: Come thou and reign over us.\n15 And it answered them: If indeed you mean to make me king, come ye and rest under my shadow: but if you mean it not, let fire come out from the bramble, and devour the cedars of Libanus.\n16 Now therefore if you have done well, and without sin in appointing Abimelech king over you, and have dealt well with Jerobaal, and with his house, and have made a suitable return for the benefits of him, who fought for you,\n17 And exposed his life to dangers, to deliver you from the hands of Madian,\n18 And you are now risen up against my father's house, and have killed his sons seventy men upon one stone, and have made Abimelech the son of his handmaid king over the inhabitants of Sichem, because he is your brother:\n19 If therefore you have dealt well, and without fault with Jerobaal, and his house, rejoice ye this day in Abimelech, and may he rejoice in you.\n20 But if unjustly: let fire come out from him, and consume the inhabitants of Sichem, and the town of Mello: and let fire come out from the men of Sichem, and from the town of Mello, and devour Abimelech.\n21 And when he had said thus he fled, and went into Bera: and dwelt there for fear of Abimelech his brother.\n22 So Abimelech reigned over Israel for three years.\n23 And the Lord sent a very evil spirit between Abimelech and the inhabitants of Sichem: who began to detest him,\n24 And to leave the crime of the murder of the seventy sons of Jerobaal, and the shedding of their blood upon Abimelech their brother, and upon the rest of the princes of the Sichemites, who aided him.\n25 And they set an ambush against him on the top of the mountains: and while they waited for his coming, they committed robberies, taking spoils of all that passed by: and it was told Abimelech.\n26 And Gaal the son of Obed came with his brethren, and went over to Sichem. And the inhabitants of Sichem taking courage at his coming,\n27 Went out into the fields, wasting the vineyards, and treading down the grapes: and singing and dancing they went into the temple of their god, and in their banquets and cups they cursed Abimelech.\n28 And Gaal the son of Obed cried: Who is Abimelech, and what is Sichem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerobaal, and hath made Zebul his servant ruler over the men of Emor the father of Sichem? Why then shall we serve him?\n29 Would to God that some man would put this people under my hand, that I might remove Abimelech out of the way. And it was said to Abimelech: Gather together the multitude of an army, and come.\n30 For Zebul the ruler of the city, hearing the words of Gaal, the son of Obed, was very angry,\n31 And sent messengers privately to Abimelech, saying: Behold Gaal the son of Obed is come into Sichem with his brethren, and endeavoureth to set the city against thee.\n32 Arise therefore in the night with the people that is with thee and he hid in the field:\n33 And betimes in the morning at sun rising set upon the city. And when he shall come out against thee with his people, do to him what thou shalt be able.\n34 Abimelech therefore arose with all his army by night, and laid ambushes near Sichem in four places.\n35 And Gaal the son of Obed went out, and stood in the entrance of the gate of the city. And Abimelech rose up, and all his army with him from the places of the ambushes.\n36 And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul: Behold a multitude cometh down from the mountains. And he answered him: Thou seest the shadows of the mountains as if they were the heads of men, and this is thy mistake.\n37 Again Gaal said: Behold there cometh people down from the middle of the land, and one troop cometh by the way that looketh towards the oak.\n38 And Zebul said to him: Where is now thy mouth wherewith thou saidst? Who is Abimelech that we should serve him? Is not this the people which thou didst despise? Go out, and fight against him.\n39 So Gaal went out in the sight of the people of Sichem, and fought against Abimelech,\n40 Who chased and put him to flight, and drove him to the city: and many were slain of his people, even to the gate of the city:\n41 And Abimelech sat down in Ruma: but Zebul drove Gaal, and his companions out of the city, and would not suffer them to abide in it.\n42 So the day following the people went out into the field. And it was told Abimelech.\n43 And he took his army, and divided it into three companies, and laid ambushes in the fields. And seeing that the people came out of the city, he arose and set upon them,\n44 With his own company, assaulting and besieging the city: whilst the two other companies chased the enemies that were scattered about the field.\n45 And Abimelech assaulted the city all that day: and took it, and killed the inhabitants thereof, and demolished it, so that he sowed salt in it.\n46 And when they who dwelt in the tower of Sichem had heard this, they went into the temple of their god Berith where they had made a covenant with him, and from thence the place had taken its name, and it was exceeding strong.\n47 Abimelech also hearing that the men of the tower of Sichem were gathered together,\n48 Went up into mount Selmon he and all his people with him: and taking an axe, he cut down the bough of a tree, and laying it on his shoulder and carrying it, he said to his companions: What you see me do, do you out of hand.\n49 So they cut down boughs from the trees, every man as fast as he could, and followed their leader. And surrounding the fort they set it on fire: and so it came to pass that with the smoke and with the fire a thousand persons were killed, men and women together, of the inhabitants of the tower of Sichem.\n50 Then Abimelech departing from thence came to the town of Thebes, which he surrounded and besieged with his army.\n51 And there was in the midst of the city a high tower, to which both the men and the women were fled together, and all the princes of the city, and having shut and strongly barred the gate, they stood upon the battlements of the tower to defend themselves.\n52 And Abimelech coming near the tower, fought stoutly: and approaching to the gate, endeavoured to set fire to it:\n53 And behold a certain woman casting a piece of a millstone from above, dashed it against the head of Abimelech, and broke his skull.\n54 And he called hastily to his armourbearer, and said to him: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest it should be said that I was slain by a woman. He did as he was commanded, and slew him.\n55 And when he was dead, all the men of Israel that were with him, returned to their homes.\n56 And God repaid the evil, that Abimelech had done against his father, killing his seventy brethren.\n57 The Sichemites also were rewarded for what they had done, and the curse of Joatham the son of Jerobaal came upon them.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Recite Judith 9:3", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Quoting from Judith 9:3, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And who gavest their wives to be made a prey, and their daughters into captivity: and all their spoils to be divided to thy servants, who were zealous with thy zeal: assist, I beseech thee, O Lord God, me a widow.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Quote from Proverbs chapter 20, verse 1", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Proverbs chapter 20, verse 1, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"Wine is a luxurious thing, and drunkenness riotous: whosoever is delighted therewith shall not be wise.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where does it say \"Surely man passeth as an image: yea, and he is disquieted in vain.

They believed not his word,\n25 And they murmured in their tents: they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord.\n26 And he lifted up his hand over them: to overthrow them in the desert;\n27 And to cast down their seed among the nations, and to scatter them in the countries.\n28 They also were initiated to Beelphegor: and ate the sacrifices of the dead.\n29 And they provoked him with their inventions: and destruction was multiplied among them.\n30 Then Phinees stood up, and pacified him: and the slaughter ceased.\n31 And it was reputed to him unto justice, to generation and generation for evermore.\n32 They provoked him also at the waters of contradiction: and Moses was afflicted for their sakes:\n33 Because they exasperated his spirit. And he distinguished with his lips.\n34 They did not destroy the nations of which the Lord spoke unto them.\n35 And they were mingled among the heathens, and learned their works:\n36 And served their idols, and it became a stumblingblock to them.\n37 And they sacrificed their sons, and their daughters to devils.\n38 And they shed innocent blood: the blood of their sons and of their daughters which they sacrificed to the idols of Chanaan. And the land was polluted with blood,\n39 And was defiled with their works: and they went aside after their own inventions.\n40 And the Lord was exceedingly angry with his people: and he abhorred his inheritance.\n41 And he delivered them into the hands of the nations: and they that hated them had dominion over them.\n42 And their enemies afflicted them: and they were humbled under their hands:\n43 Many times did he deliver them. But they provoked him with their counsel: and they were brought low by their iniquities.\n44 And he saw when they were in tribulation: and he heard their prayer.\n45 And he was mindful of his covenant: and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.\n46 And he gave them unto mercies, in the sight of all those that had made them captives.\n47 Save us, O Lord, our God: and gather us from among nations: That we may give thanks to thy holy name, and may glory in thy praise.\n48 Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say: So be it, so be it.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"Thou hast commanded thy commandments to be kept most diligently.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from Psalm, chapter 118.\n\nWant the full chapter?

And Demetrius sat upon the throne of his kingdom:\n5 And there came to him the wicked and ungodly men of Israel: And Alcimus was at the head of them, who desired to be made high priest.\n6 And they accused the people to the king, saying: Judas and his brethren have destroyed all thy friends, and he hath driven us out of our land.\n7 Now therefore send some man whom thou trustest, and let him go, and see all the havock he hath made amongst us, and in the king's lands: and let him punish all his friends and their helpers.\n8 Then the king chose Bacchides, one of his friends that ruled beyond the great river in the kingdom, and was faithful to the king: and he sent him,\n9 To see the havock that Judas had made: and the wicked Alcimus he made high priest, and commanded him to take revenge upon the children of Israel.\n10 And they arose, and came with a great army into the land of Juda: and they sent messengers, and spoke to Judas and his brethren with peaceable words deceitfully.\n11 But they gave no heed to their words: for they saw that they were come with a great army.\n12 Then there assembled to Alcimus and Bacchides a company of the scribes to require things that are just:\n13 And first the Assideans that were among the children of Israel, and they sought peace of them.\n14 For they said: One that is a priest of the seed of Aaron is come, he will not deceive us.\n15 And he spoke to them peaceably: and he swore to them, saying: We will do you no harm nor your friends.\n16 And they believed him. And he took threescore of them, and slew them in one day, according to the word that is written:\n17 The flesh of thy saints, and the blood of them they have shed round about Jerusalem, and there was none to bury them.\n18 Then fear and trembling fell upon all the people: for they said: There is no truth, nor justice among them: for they have broken the covenant, and the oath which they made.\n19 And Bacchides removed the camp from Jerusalem, and pitched in Bethzecha: and he sent, and took many of them that were fled away from him, and some of the people he killed, and threw them into a great pit.\n20 Then he committed the country to Alcimus, and left with him troops to help him. So Bacchides went away to the king:\n21 But Alcimus did what he could to maintain his chief priesthood.\n22 And they that disturbed the people resorted to him, and they got the land of Juda into their power, and did much hurt in Israel.\n23 And Judas saw all the evils that Alcimus, and they that were with him, did to the children of Israel, much more than the Gentiles.\n24 And he went out into all the coasts of Juda round about, and took vengeance upon the men that had revolted, and they ceased to go forth any more into the country.\n25 And Alcimus saw that Judas, and they that were with him prevailed: and he knew that he could not stand against them, and he went back to the king, and accused them of many crimes.\n26 And the king sent Nicanor one of his principal lords, who was a great enemy to Israel: and he commanded him to destroy the people.\n27 And Nicanor came to Jerusalem with a great army, and he sent to Judas and to his brethren deceitfully with friendly words,\n28 Saying: Let there be no fighting between me and you: I will come with a few men to see your faces with peace.\n29 And he came to Judas, and they saluted one another peaceably: and the enemies were prepared to take away Judas by force.\n30 And the thing was known to Judas that he was come to him with deceit: and he was much afraid of him, and would not see his face any more.\n31 And Nicanor knew that his counsel was discovered: and he went out to fight against Judas near Capharsalama.\n32 And there fell of Nicanor's army almost five thousand men, and they fled into the city of David.\n33 And after this Nicanor went up into mount Sion: and some of the priests and the people came out to salute him peaceably, and to shew him the holocausts that were offered for the king.\n34 But he mocked them and despised them, and abused them: and he spoke proudly,\n35 And swore in anger, saying: Unless Judas and his army be delivered into my hands, as soon as ever I return in peace, I will burn this house. And he went out in a great rage.\n36 And the priests went in, and stood before the face of the altar and the temple: and weeping, they said:\n37 Thou, O Lord, hast chosen this house for thy name to be called upon therein, that it might be a house of prayer and supplication for thy people.\n38 Be avenged of this man, and his army, and let them fall by the sword: remember their blasphemies, and suffer them not to continue any longer.\n39 Then Nicanor went out from Jerusalem, and encamped near to Bethoron: and an army of Syria joined him.\n40 But Judas pitched in Adarsa with three thousand men: and Judas prayed, and said:\n41 O Lord, when they that were sent by king Sennacherib blasphemed thee, an angel went out, and slew of them a hundred and eighty-five thousand:\n42 Even so destroy this army in our sight to day, and let the rest know that he hath spoken ill against thy sanctuary: and judge thou him according to his wickedness.\n43 And the armies joined battle on the thirteenth day of the month Adar: and the army of Nicanor was defeated, and he himself was first slain in the battle.\n44 And when his army saw that Nicanor was slain, they threw away their weapons, and fled:\n45 And they pursued after them one day's journey from Adazer, even till ye come to Gazara, and they sounded the trumpets after them with signals.\n46 And they went forth out of all the towns of Judea round about, and they pushed them with the horns, and they turned again to them, and they were all slain with the sword, and there was not left of them so much as one.\n47 And they took the spoils of them for a booty, and they cut off Nicanor's head, and his right hand, which he had proudly stretched out, and they brought it, and hung it up over against Jerusalem.\n48 And the people rejoiced exceedingly, and they spent that day with great joy.\n49 And he ordained that this day should be kept every year, being the thirteenth of the month of Adar.\n50 And the land of Juda was quiet for a short time.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where exactly in the Bible is \"And they took their bones and buried them in the wood of Jabes: and fasted seven days.\" written?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You can find \"And they took their bones and buried them in the wood of Jabes: and fasted seven days.\" in the Old Testament, specifically in 1 Samuel 31:13.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book is the verse \"But they were exceedingly afraid, and said: Behold two kings could not stand before him, and how shall we be able to resist?\" from?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you've got in mind is from 2 Kings, chapter 10.\n\nHere's the full rundown of the chapter:\n2 Kings Chapter 10\n1 And Achab had seventy sons in Samaria: so Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, to the chief men of the city, and to the ancients, and to them that brought up Achab's children, saying:\n2 As soon as you receive these letters, ye that have your master's sons, and chariots, and horses, and fenced cities, and armour,\n3 Choose the best, and him that shall please you most of your master's sons, and set him on his father's throne, and fight for the house of your master.\n4 But they were exceedingly afraid, and said: Behold two kings could not stand before him, and how shall we be able to resist?\n5 Therefore the overseers of the house, and the rulers of the city, and the ancients, and the tutors sent to Jehu, saying: We are thy servants, whatsoever thou shalt command us we will do, neither will we make us a king: do thou all that pleaseth thee.\n6 And he wrote letters the second time to them, saying: If you be mine, and will obey me, take the heads of the sons of your master, and come to me to Jezrahel by to morrow this time. Now the king's sons, being seventy men, were brought up with the chief men of the city.\n7 And when the letters came to them, they took the king's sons, and slew seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him to Jezrahel.\n8 And a messenger came, and told him, saying: They have brought the heads of the king's sons. And he said: Lay ye them in two heaps by the entering in of the gate until the morning.\n9 And when it was light, he went out, and standing said to all the people: You are just: if I conspired against my master, and slew him, who hath slain all these?\n10 See therefore now that there hath not fallen to the ground any of the words of the Lord, which the Lord spoke concerning the house of Achab, and the Lord hath done that which he spoke in the hand of his servant Elias.\n11 So Jehu slew all that were left of the house of Achab in Jezrahel, and all his chief men, and his friends, and his priests, till there were no remains left of him.\n12 And he arose, and went to Samaria: and when he was come to the shepherds' cabin in the way,\n13 He met with the brethren of Ochozias king of Juda, and he said to them: Who are you? And they answered: We are the brethren of Ochozias, and are come down to salute the sons of the king, and the sons of the queen.\n14 And he said: Take them alive. And they took them alive, and killed them at the pit by the cabin, two and forty men, and he left not any of them.\n15 And when he was departed thence, he found Jonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him, and he blessed him. And he said to him: Is thy heart right as my heart is with thy heart? And Jonadab said: It is. If it be, said he, give me thy hand. He gave him his hand. And he lifted him up to him into the chariot,\n16 And he said to him: Come with me, and see my zeal for the Lord. So he made him ride in his chariot,\n17 And brought him into Samaria. And he slew all that were left of Achab in Samaria, to a man, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke by Elias.\n18 And Jehu gathered together all the people, and said to them: Achab worshipped Baal a little, but I will worship him more.\n19 Now therefore call to me all the prophets of Baal, and all his servants, and all his priests: let none be wanting, for I have a great sacrifice to offer to Baal: whosoever shall be wanting shall not live. Now Jehu did this craftily, that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.\n20 And he said: Proclaim a festival for Baal.

And the king spoke, and said to him: Art thou Daniel of the children of the captivity of Juda, whom my father the king brought out of Judea?\n14 I have heard of thee, that thou hast the spirit of the gods, and excellent knowledge, and understanding, and wisdom are found in thee.\n15 And now the wise men the magicians have come in before me, to read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof: and they could not declare to me the meaning of this writing.\n16 But I have heard of thee, that thou canst interpret obscure things, and resolve difficult things: now if thou art able to read the writing, and to shew me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with purple, and shalt have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third prince in my kingdom.\n17 To which Daniel made answer, and said before the king: Thy rewards be to thyself, and the gifts of thy house give to another: but the writing I will read to thee, O king, and shew thee the interpretation thereof.\n18 O king, the most high God gave to Nabuchodonosor thy father a kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and honour.\n19 And for the greatness that he gave to him, all people, tribes, and languages trembled, and were afraid of him: whom he would, he slew: and whom he would, he destroyed: and whom he would, he set up: and whom he would, he brought down.\n20 But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit hardened unto pride, he was put down from the throne of his kingdom, and his glory was taken away.\n21 And he was driven out from the sons of men, and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses, and he did eat grass like an ox, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven: till he knew that the most High ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he will set over it whomsoever it shall please him.\n22 Thou also his son, O Baltasar, hast not humbled thy heart, whereas thou knewest all these things:\n23 But hast lifted thyself up against the Lord of heaven: and the vessels of his house have been brought before thee: and thou, and thy nobles, and thy wives, and thy concubines have drunk wine in them: and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and of gold, and of brass, of iron, and of wood, and of stone, that neither see, nor hear, nor feel: but the God who hath thy breath in his hand, and all thy ways, thou hast not glorified.\n24 Wherefore he hath sent the part of the hand which hath written this that is set down.\n25 And this is the writing that is written: MANE, THECEL, PHARES.\n26 And this is the interpretation of the word. MANE: God hath numbered thy kingdom, and hath finished it.\n27 THECEL: thou art weighed in the balance, and art found wanting.\n28 PHARES: thy kingdom is divided, and is given to the Medes and Persians.\n29 Then by the king's command Daniel was clothed with purple, and a chain of gold was put about his neck: and it was proclaimed of him that he had power as the third man in the kingdom.\n30 The same night Baltasar the Chaldean king was slain.\n31 And Darius the Mede succeeded to the kingdom, being threescore and two years old.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the scriptural address for \"Observe the month of new corn, which is the first of the spring, that thou mayst celebrate the phase to the Lord thy God: because in this month the Lord thy God brought thee out of Egypt by night.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Bible, the verse \"Observe the month of new corn, which is the first of the spring, that thou mayst celebrate the phase to the Lord thy God: because in this month the Lord thy God brought thee out of Egypt by night.\" can be found in the book of Deuteronomy, chapter 16, verse 1 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What chapter and book should I look at for \"And they slew them not, because the princes of the multitude had sworn in the name of the Lord the God of Israel.

And the children of Israel answered them, and said:\n7 Perhaps you dwell in the land which falls to our lot; if so, we can make no league with you.\n8 But they said to Josue: We are thy servants.

And as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.\n6 And other some fell upon a rock: and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it had no moisture.\n7 And other some fell among thorns, and the thorns growing up with it, choked it.\n8 And other some fell upon good ground; and being sprung up, yielded fruit a hundredfold. Saying these things, he cried out: He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.\n9 And his disciples asked him what this parable might be.\n10 To whom he said: To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to the rest in parables, that seeing they may not see, and hearing may not understand.\n11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.\n12 And they by the way side are they that hear; then the devil cometh, and taketh the word out of their heart, lest believing they should be saved.\n13 Now they upon the rock, are they who when they hear, receive the word with joy: and these have no roots; for they believe for a while, and in time of temptation, they fall away.\n14 And that which fell among thorns, are they who have heard, and going their way, are choked with the cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and yield no fruit.\n15 But that on the good ground, are they who in a good and perfect heart, hearing the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit in patience.\n16 Now no man lighting a candle covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it upon a candlestick, that they who come in may see the light.\n17 For there is not any thing secret that shall not be made manifest, nor hidden, that shall not be known and come abroad.\n18 Take heed therefore how you hear.

And they launched forth.\n23 And when they were sailing, he slept; and there came down a storm of wind upon the lake, and they were filled, and were in danger.\n24 And they came and awaked him, saying: Master, we perish. But he arising, rebuked the wind and the rage of the water; and it ceased, and there was a calm.\n25 And he said to them: Where is your faith? Who being afraid, wondered, saying one to another: Who is this, (think you), that he commandeth both the winds and the sea, and they obey him?\n26 And they sailed to the country of the Gerasens, which is over against Galilee.\n27 And when he was come forth to the land, there met him a certain man who had a devil now a very long time, and he wore no clothes, neither did he abide in a house, but in the sepulchres.\n28 And when he saw Jesus, he fell down before him; and crying out with a loud voice, he said: What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the most high God? 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.

Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee from the hand of Saul,\n8 And gave thee thy master's house and thy master's wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and Juda: and if these things be little, I shall add far greater things unto thee.\n9 Why therefore hast thou despised the word of the Lord, to do evil in my sight? Thou hast killed Urias the Hethite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.\n10 Therefore the sword shall never depart from thy house, because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Urias the Hethite to be thy wife.\n11 Thus saith the Lord: Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thy own house, and I will take thy wives before thy eyes I and give them to thy neighhour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.\n12 For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing in the sight of all Israel, and in the sight of the sun.\n13 And David said to Nathan: I have sinned against the Lord.

For they said: Behold when the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he would not hearken to our voice: how much more will he afflict himself if we tell him that the child is dead?\n19 But when David saw his servants whispering, he understood that the child was dead: and he said to his servants: Is the child dead? They answered him: He is dead.\n20 Then David arose from the ground, and washed and anointed himself: and when he had changed his apparel, he went into the house of the Lord: and worshipped, and then he came into his own house, and he called for bread, and ate.\n21 And his servants said to him: What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, while it was alive, but when the child was dead, thou didst rise up, and eat bread.\n22 And he said: While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept for him: for I said: Who knoweth whether the Lord may not give him to me, and the child may live?\n23 But now that he is dead, why should I fast? Shall I be able to bring him back any more? I shall go to him rather: but he shall not return to me.\n24 And David comforted Bethsabee his wife, and went in unto her, and slept with her: and she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon, and

Walk then as children of the light.\n9 For the fruit of the light is in all goodness, and justice, and truth;\n10 Proving what is well pleasing to God:\n11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.\n12 For the things that are done by them in secret, it is a shame even to speak of.\n13 But all things that are reproved, are made manifest by the light; for all that is made manifest is light.\n14 Wherefore he saith: Rise thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead: and Christ shall enlighten thee.\n15 See therefore, brethren, how you walk circumspectly: not as unwise,\n16 But as wise: redeeming the time, because the days are evil.\n17 Wherefore become not unwise, but understanding what is the will of God.\n18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is luxury; but be ye filled with the holy Spirit,\n19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual canticles, singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord;\n20 Giving thanks always for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God and the Father:\n21 Being subject one to another, in the fear of Christ.\n22 Let women be subject to their husbands, as to the Lord:\n23 Because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church.

he sought to get the kingdom of Alexander by deceit, and join it to his own kingdom.\n2 And he went out into Syria with peaceable words, and they opened to him the cities, and met him: for king Alexander had ordered them to go forth to meet him, because he was his father in law.\n3 Now when Ptolemee entered into the cities, he put garrisons of soldiers in every city.\n4 And when he came near to Azotus, they shewed him the temple of Dagon that was burnt with fire, and Azotus, and the suburbs thereof that were destroyed, and the bodies that were cast abroad, and the graves of them that were slain in the battle, which they had made near the way.\n5 And they told the king that Jonathan had done these things, to make him odious: but the king held his peace.\n6 And Jonathan came to meet the king at Joppe with glory, and they saluted one another, and they lodged there.\n7 And Jonathan went with the king as far as the river, called Eleutherus: and he returned into Jerusalem.\n8 And king Ptolemee got the dominion of the cities by the sea side, even to Seleucia, and he devised evil designs against Alexander.\n9 And he sent ambassadors to Demetrius, saying: Come, let us make a league between us, and I will give thee my daughter whom Alexander hath, and thou shalt reign in the kingdom of thy father.\n10 For I repent that I have given him my daughter: for he hath sought to kill me.\n11 And he slandered him, because he coveted his kingdom.\n12 And he took away his daughter, and gave her to Demetrius, and alienated himself from Alexander, and his enmities were made manifest.\n13 And Ptolemee entered into Antioch, and set two crowns upon his head, that of Egypt, and that of Asia.\n14 Now king Alexander was in Cilicia at that time: because they that were in those places had rebelled.\n15 And when Alexander heard of it, he came to give him battle, and king Ptolemee brought forth his army, and met him with a strong power, and put him to flight.\n16 And Alexander fled into Arabia, there to be protected: and king Ptolemee was exalted.\n17 And Zabdiel the Arabian took off Alexander's head, and sent it to Ptolemee.\n18 And king Ptolemee died the third day after:

them that were in Judea, to take the castle that was in Jerusalem: and they made many engines of war against it.\n21 Then some wicked men that hated their own nation, went away to king Demetrius, and told him that Jonathan was besieging the castle.\n22 And when he heard it, he was angry: and forthwith he came to Ptolemais, and wrote to Jonathan, that he should not besiege the castle, but should come to him in haste, and speak to him.\n23 But when Jonathan heard this, he bade them besiege it still: and he chose some of the ancients of Israel, and of the priests, and put himself in danger.\n24 And he took gold, and silver, and raiment, and many other presents, and went to the king to Ptolemais, and he found favour in his sight.\n25 And certain wicked men of his nation made complaints

he had before, and he made him the chief of his friends.\n28 And Jonathan requested of the king that he would make Judea free from tribute, and the three governments, and Samaria, and the confines thereof: and he promised him three hundred talents.\n29 And the king consented: and he wrote letters to Jonathan of all these things to this effect.\n30 King Demetrius to his brother Jonathan, and to the nation of the Jews, greeting.\n31 We send you here a copy of the letter, which we have written to Lasthenes our parent concerning you, that you might know it.\n32 King Demetrius to Lasthenes his parent, greeting.\n33 We have determined to do good to the nation of the Jews who are our friends, and keep the things that are just with us, for their good will which they bear towards us.\n34 We have ratified therefore unto them all the borders of Judea, and the three cities, Apherema, Lydda, and Ramatha, which are added to Judea, out of Samaria, and all their confines, to be set apart to all them that sacrifice in Jerusalem, instead of the payments which the king received of them every year, and for the fruits of the land, and of the trees.\n35 And as for other things that belonged to us of the tithes, and of the tributes, from this time we discharge them of them: the saltpans also, and the crowns that were presented to us.\n36 We give all to them, and nothing hereof shall be revoked

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",

things, boasting: let old matters depart from your mouth: for the Lord is a God of all knowledge, and to him are thoughts prepared.\n4 The bow of the mighty is overcome, and the weak are girt with strength.\n5 They that were full before have hired out themselves for bread: and the hungry are filled, so that the barren hath borne many: and she that had many children is weakened.\n6 The Lord killeth and maketh alive, he bringeth down to hell and bringeth back again.\n7 The Lord maketh poor and maketh rich, he humbleth and he exalteth.\n8 He raiseth up the needy from the dust, and lifteth

Thus did they to all Israel that came to Silo.\n15 Also before they burnt the fat, the servant of the priest came, and said to the man that sacrificed: Give me flesh to boil for the priest: for I will not take of thee sodden flesh, but raw.\n16 And he that sacrificed said to him: Let the fat first be burnt to day according to the custom, and then take as much as thy soul desireth. But he answered and said to him: Not so: but thou shalt give it me now, or else I will take it by force.\n17 Wherefore the sin of the young men was exceeding great before the Lord: because they withdrew men from the sacrifice of the Lord.\n18 But Samuel ministered before the face of the Lord: being a child girded with a linen ephod.\n19 And his mother made him a little coat, which she brought to him on the appointed days, when she went up with her husband, to offer the solemn sacrifice.\n20 And Heli blessed Elcana and his wife: and he said to him: The Lord give thee seed of this woman, for the loan thou hast lent to the Lord.

God forbid.\n4 But God is true; and every man a liar, as it is written, That thou mayest be justified in thy words, and mayest overcome when thou art judged.\n5 But if our injustice commend the justice of God, what shall we say?

But I have called you friends: because all things whatsoever I have heard of my Father, I have made known to you.\n16 You have not chosen me: but I have chosen you; and have appointed you, that you should go, and should bring forth fruit; and your fruit should remain: that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.\n17 These things I command you, that you love one another.\n18 If the world hate you, know ye, that it hath hated me before you.\n19 If you had been of the world, the world would love its own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.\n20 Remember my word that I said to you: The servant is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you: if they have kept my word, they will keep yours also.\n21 But all these things they will do to you for my name's sake: because they know not him who sent me.\n22 If I had not come, and spoken to them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.\n23 He that hateth me, hateth my Father also.\n24 If I had not done among them the works that no other man hath done, they would not have sin; but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.\n25 But that the word may be fulfilled which is written in their law: They hated me without cause.\n26 But when the Paraclete cometh, whom I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceedeth from the Father, he shall give testimony of me.\n27 And you shall give testimony, because you are with me from the beginning.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the content of Leviticus 5:9?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Here's the passage from Leviticus 5:9 in the Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"And of its blood he shall sprinkle the side of the altar, and whatsoever is left, he shall let it drop at the bottom thereof, because it is for sin.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What does Matthew chapter 8 verse 18 say?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse in Matthew 8:18 of the New Testament (Douay Rheims) goes:\n\"And Jesus seeing great multitudes about him, gave orders to pass over the water.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"And these men have not known my ways: so I swore in my wrath that they shall not enter into my rest.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "That's from Psalm, chapter 94.\n\nWant the full chapter?

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

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 why dost thou afflict thy heart? Am not I better to thee than ten children?\n9 So Anna arose after she had eaten and drunk in Silo: And Heli the priest sitting upon a stool, before the door of the temple of the Lord:\n10 As Anna had her heart full of grief, she prayed to the Lord, shedding many tears,\n11 And she made a vow, saying: O Lord, of hosts, if thou wilt look down on the affliction of thy servant, and wilt be mindful of me, and not forget thy handmaid, and wilt give to thy servant a man child: I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head.\n12 And it came to pass, as she multiplied prayers before the Lord, that Heli observed her mouth.\n13 Now Anna spoke in her heart, and only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard at all. Heli therefore thought her to be drunk,\n14 And said to her: How long wilt thou, be drunk? digest a little the wine, of which thou hast taken too much.\n15 Anna answering, said: Not so, my lord: for I am an exceeding unhappy woman, and have drunk neither wine nor any strong drink, but I have poured out my soul before the Lord.\n16 Count not thy handmaid for one of the daughters of Belial: for out of the abundance of my sorrow and grief have I spoken till now.\n17 Then Heli said to her: Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition, which thou hast asked of him.\n18 And she said: Would to God thy handmaid may find grace in thy eyes. So the woman went on her way, and ate, and her countenance was no more changed.\n19 And they rose in the morning, and worshipped before the Lord: and they returned, and came into their house at Ramatha. And Elcana knew Anna his wife: and the Lord remembered her.\n20 And it came to pass when the time was come about, Anna conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel: because she had asked him of the Lord.\n21 And Elcana her husband went up, and all his house, to offer to the Lord the solemn sacrifice, and his vow.\n22 But Anna went not up: for she said to her husband: I will not go till the child be weaned, and till I may carry him, that he may appear before the Lord, and may abide always there.\n23 And Elcana her husband said to her: Do what seemeth good to thee, and stay till thou wean him: and I pray that the Lord may fulfill his word.

And withal consider that I am your bone, and your flesh.\n3 And his mother's brethren spoke of him to all the men of Sichem, all these words, and they inclined their hearts after Abimelech, saying: He is our brother:\n4 And they gave him seventy weight of silver out of the temple of Baalberith: wherewith he hired to himself men that were needy, and vagabonds, and they followed him.\n5 And he came to his father's house in Ephra, and slew his brethren the sons of Jerobaal, seventy men, upon one stone: and there remained only Joatham the youngest son of Jerobaal, who was hidden.\n6 And all the men of Sichem were gathered together, and all the families of the city of Mello: and they went and made Abimelech king, by the oak that stood in Sichem.\n7 This being told to Joatham, he went and stood on the top of mount Garizim: and lifting up his voice, he cried, and said: Hear me, ye men of Sichem, so may God hear you.\n8 The trees went to anoint a king over them: and they said to the olive tree: Reign thou over us.\n9 And it answered: Can I leave my fatness, which both gods and men make use of, to come to be promoted among the trees?\n10 And the trees said to the fig tree: Come thou and reign over us.\n11 And it answered them: Can I leave my sweetness, and my delicious fruits, and go to be promoted among the other trees?\n12 And the trees said to the vine: Come thou and reign over us.\n13 And it answered them: Can I forsake my wine, that cheereth God and men, and be promoted among the other trees?\n14 And all the trees said to the bramble: Come thou and reign over us.\n15 And it answered them: If indeed you mean to make me king, come ye and rest under my shadow: but if you mean it not, let fire come out from the bramble, and devour the cedars of Libanus.\n16 Now therefore if you have done well, and without sin in appointing Abimelech king over you, and have dealt well with Jerobaal, and with his house, and have made a suitable return for the benefits of him, who fought for you,\n17 And exposed his life to dangers, to deliver you from the hands of Madian,\n18 And you are now risen up against my father's house, and have killed his sons seventy men upon one stone, and have made Abimelech the son of his handmaid king over the inhabitants of Sichem, because he is your brother:\n19 If therefore you have dealt well, and without fault with Jerobaal, and his house, rejoice ye this day in Abimelech, and may he rejoice in you.\n20 But if unjustly: let fire come out from him, and consume the inhabitants of Sichem, and the town of Mello: and let fire come out from the men of Sichem, and from the town of Mello, and devour Abimelech.\n21 And when he had said thus he fled, and went into Bera: and dwelt there for fear of Abimelech his brother.\n22 So Abimelech reigned over Israel for three years.\n23 And the Lord sent a very evil spirit between Abimelech and the inhabitants of Sichem: who began to detest him,\n24 And to leave the crime of the murder of the seventy sons of Jerobaal, and the shedding of their blood upon Abimelech their brother, and upon the rest of the princes of the Sichemites, who aided him.\n25 And they set an ambush against him on the top of the mountains: and while they waited for his coming, they committed robberies, taking spoils of all that passed by: and it was told Abimelech.\n26 And Gaal the son of Obed came with his brethren, and went over to Sichem. And the inhabitants of Sichem taking courage at his coming,\n27 Went out into the fields, wasting the vineyards, and treading down the grapes: and singing and dancing they went into the temple of their god, and in their banquets and cups they cursed Abimelech.\n28 And Gaal the son of Obed cried: Who is Abimelech, and what is Sichem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerobaal, and hath made Zebul his servant ruler over the men of Emor the father of Sichem? Why then shall we serve him?\n29 Would to God that some man would put this people under my hand, that I might remove Abimelech out of the way. And it was said to Abimelech: Gather together the multitude of an army, and come.\n30 For Zebul the ruler of the city, hearing the words of Gaal, the son of Obed, was very angry,\n31 And sent messengers privately to Abimelech, saying: Behold Gaal the son of Obed is come into Sichem with his brethren, and endeavoureth to set the city against thee.\n32 Arise therefore in the night with the people that is with thee and he hid in the field:\n33 And betimes in the morning at sun rising set upon the city. And when he shall come out against thee with his people, do to him what thou shalt be able.\n34 Abimelech therefore arose with all his army by night, and laid ambushes near Sichem in four places.\n35 And Gaal the son of Obed went out, and stood in the entrance of the gate of the city. And Abimelech rose up, and all his army with him from the places of the ambushes.\n36 And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul: Behold a multitude cometh down from the mountains. And he answered him: Thou seest the shadows of the mountains as if they were the heads of men, and this is thy mistake.\n37 Again Gaal said: Behold there cometh people down from the middle of the land, and one troop cometh by the way that looketh towards the oak.\n38 And Zebul said to him: Where is now thy mouth wherewith thou saidst? Who is Abimelech that we should serve him? Is not this the people which thou didst despise? Go out, and fight against him.\n39 So Gaal went out in the sight of the people of Sichem, and fought against Abimelech,\n40 Who chased and put him to flight, and drove him to the city: and many were slain of his people, even to the gate of the city:\n41 And Abimelech sat down in Ruma: but Zebul drove Gaal, and his companions out of the city, and would not suffer them to abide in it.\n42 So the day following the people went out into the field. And it was told Abimelech.\n43 And he took his army, and divided it into three companies, and laid ambushes in the fields. And seeing that the people came out of the city, he arose and set upon them,\n44 With his own company, assaulting and besieging the city: whilst the two other companies chased the enemies that were scattered about the field.\n45 And Abimelech assaulted the city all that day: and took it, and killed the inhabitants thereof, and demolished it, so that he sowed salt in it.\n46 And when they who dwelt in the tower of Sichem had heard this, they went into the temple of their god Berith where they had made a covenant with him, and from thence the place had taken its name, and it was exceeding strong.\n47 Abimelech also hearing that the men of the tower of Sichem were gathered together,\n48 Went up into mount Selmon he and all his people with him: and taking an axe, he cut down the bough of a tree, and laying it on his shoulder and carrying it, he said to his companions: What you see me do, do you out of hand.\n49 So they cut down boughs from the trees, every man as fast as he could, and followed their leader. And surrounding the fort they set it on fire: and so it came to pass that with the smoke and with the fire a thousand persons were killed, men and women together, of the inhabitants of the tower of Sichem.\n50 Then Abimelech departing from thence came to the town of Thebes, which he surrounded and besieged with his army.\n51 And there was in the midst of the city a high tower, to which both the men and the women were fled together, and all the princes of the city, and having shut and strongly barred the gate, they stood upon the battlements of the tower to defend themselves.\n52 And Abimelech coming near the tower, fought stoutly: and approaching to the gate, endeavoured to set fire to it:\n53 And behold a certain woman casting a piece of a millstone from above, dashed it against the head of Abimelech, and broke his skull.\n54 And he called hastily to his armourbearer, and said to him: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest it should be said that I was slain by a woman. He did as he was commanded, and slew him.\n55 And when he was dead, all the men of Israel that were with him, returned to their homes.\n56 And God repaid the evil, that Abimelech had done against his father, killing his seventy brethren.\n57 The Sichemites also were rewarded for what they had done, and the curse of Joatham the son of Jerobaal came upon them.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Which book and what chapter and verse include \"And on the seventh day, he shall look on him: if the leprosy be somewhat obscure, and not spread in the skin, he shall declare him clean, because it is but a scab: and the man shall wash his clothes, and shall be clean.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the Old Testament, the book of Leviticus, chapter 13, verse 6 states: \"And on the seventh day, he shall look on him: if the leprosy be somewhat obscure, and not spread in the skin, he shall declare him clean, because it is but a scab: and the man shall wash his clothes, and shall be clean.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where exactly in the Bible is \"He shall take also of the blood of the calf, and sprinkle with his finger seven times towards the propitiatory to the east.\" written?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "\"He shall take also of the blood of the calf, and sprinkle with his finger seven times towards the propitiatory to the east.\" appears in Leviticus, chapter 16, at verse 14 of the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "I need the text of Numbers 5:16", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Numbers chapter 5, verse 16, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"The priest therefore shall offer it, and set it before the Lord.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "What's the chapter and book tied to \"The desire of the just is all good: the expectation of the wicked is indignation.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The verse you're referencing is from the book Proverbs, chapter 11.\n\nHere's the full chapter:\nProverbs Chapter 11\n1 A deceitful balance is an abomination before the Lord: and a just weight is his will.\n2 Where pride is, there also shall be reproach: but where humility is, there also is wisdom.\n3 The simplicity of the just shall guide them: and the deceitfulness of the wicked shall destroy them.\n4 Riches shall not profit in the day of revenge: but justice shall deliver from death.\n5 The justice of the upright shall make his way prosperous: and the wicked man shall fall by his own wickedness.\n6 The justice of the righteous shall deliver them: and the unjust shall be caught in their own snares.\n7 When the wicked man is dead, there shall be no hope any more: and the expectation of the solicitous shall perish.\n8 The just is delivered out of distress: and the wicked shall be given up for him.\n9 The dissembler with his mouth deceiveth his friend: but the just shall be delivered by knowledge.\n10 When it goeth well with the just the city shall rejoice: and when the wicked perish there shall be praise.\n11 By the blessing of the just the city shall be exalted: and by the mouth of the wicked it shall be overthrown.\n12 He that despiseth his friend, is mean of heart: but the wise man will hold his peace.\n13 He that walketh deceitfully, revealeth secrets: but he that is faithful, concealeth the thing committed to him by his friend.\n14 Where there is no governor, the people shall fall: but there is safety where there is much counsel.\n15 He shall be afflicted with evil, that is surety for a stranger: but he that is aware of the snares, shall be secure.\n16 A gracious woman shall find glory: and the strong shall have riches.\n17 A merciful man doth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel casteth off even his own kindred.\n18 The wicked maketh an unsteady work: but to him that soweth justice, there is a faithful reward.\n19 Clemency prepareth life: and the pursuing of evil things, death.\n20 A perverse heart is abominable to the Lord: and his will is in them that walk sincerely.\n21 Hand in hand the evil man shall not be innocent: but the seed of the just shall be saved.\n22 A golden ring in a swine's snout, a woman fair and foolish.\n23 The desire of the just is all good: the expectation of the wicked is indignation.\n24 Some distribute their own goods, and grow richer: others take away what is not their own, and are always in want.\n25 The soul which blesseth, shall be made fat: and he that inebriateth, shall be inebriated also himself.\n26 He that hideth up corn, shall be cursed among the people: but a blessing upon the head of them that sell.\n27 Well doth he rise early who seeketh good things;

Now for their names, Samaria is Oolla, and Jerusalem is Ooliba.\n5 And Oolla committed fornication against me, and doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians that came to her,\n6 Who were clothed with blue, princes, and rulers, beautiful youths, all horsemen, mounted upon horses.\n7 And she committed her fornications with those chosen men, all sons of the Assyrians: and she defiled herself with the uncleanness of all them on whom she doted.\n8 Moreover also she did not forsake her fornications which she had committed in Egypt: for they also lay with her in her youth, and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and poured out their fornication upon her.\n9 Therefore have I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, into the hands of the sons of the Assyrians, upon whose lust she doted.\n10 They discovered her disgrace, took away her sons and daughters, and slew her with the sword: and they became infamous women, and they executed judgments in her.\n11 And when her sister Ooliba saw this, she was mad with lust more than she: and she carried her fornication beyond the fornication of her sister.\n12 Impudently prostituting herself to the children of the Assyrians, the princes, and rulers that came to her, clothed with divers colours, to the horsemen that rode upon horses, and to young men all of great beauty.\n13 And I saw that she was defiled, and that they both took one 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 Babylon, and all the Chaldeans, the nobles, and the kings, and princes, all the sons of the Assyrians, beautiful young men, all the captains, and rulers, the princes of princes, and the renowned

I will set judgment before them, and they shall judge thee by their judgments.\n25 And I will set my jealousy against thee, which they shall execute upon thee with fury: they shall cut off thy nose and thy ears: and what remains shall fall by the sword: they shall take thy sons, and thy daughters, and thy residue shall be devoured by fire.\n26 And they shall strip thee of thy garments, and take away the instruments of thy glory.\n27 And I will put an end to thy wickedness in thee, and thy fornication brought out of the land of Egypt: neither shalt thou lift up thy eyes to them, nor remember Egypt any more.\n28 For thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I will deliver thee into the hands of them whom thou hatest, into their hands with whom thy soul hath been glutted.\n29 And they shall deal with thee in hatred, and they shall take away all thy labours, and shall let thee go naked, and full of disgrace, and the disgrace of thy fornication shall be discovered, thy wickedness, and thy fornications.\n30 They have done these things to thee, because thou hast played the harlot with the nations among which thou wast defiled with their idols.\n31 Thou hast walked in the way of thy sister, and I will give her cup into thy hand.\n32 Thus saith the Lord God: Thou shalt drink thy sister's cup, deep, and wide: thou shalt be had in derision and scorn, which containeth very much.\n33 Thou shalt be filled with drunkenness, and sorrow: with the cup of grief, and sadness, with the cup of thy sister Samaria.\n34 And thou shalt drink it, and shalt drink it up even to the dregs, and thou shalt devour the fragments thereof, thou shalt rend thy breasts: because I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.\n35 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because thou hast forgotten me, and hast cast me off behind thy back, bear thou also thy wickedness, and thy fornications.\n36 And the Lord spoke to me, saying: Son of man, dost thou judge Oolla, and Ooliba, and dost thou declare to them their

Zacharias, the son of Banaias, the son of Jehiel, the son of Mathanias, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, was there, upon whom the spirit of the Lord came in the midst of the multitude,\n15 And he said:

the spoils of the dead, and they found among the dead bodies, stuff of various kinds, and garments, and most precious vessels: and they took them for themselves, insomuch that they could not carry all, nor in three days take away the spoils, the booty was so great.\n26 And on the fourth day they were assembled in the valley of Blessing: for there they blessed the Lord, and therefore they called

And he shall destroy the mighty, and the people of the saints,\n25 According to his will, and craft shall be successful in his hand: and his heart shall be puffed up, and in the abundance of all things he shall kill many: and he shall rise up against the prince of princes, and shall be broken without hand.\n26 And the vision of the evening and the morning, which was told, is true: thou therefore seal up the vision, because it shall come to pass after many days.\n27 And I Daniel languished, and was sick for some days: and when I was risen up, I did the king's business, and I was astonished at the vision, and there was none that could interpret it.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Find and read Deuteronomy chapter 10, verse 3", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From the Old Testament, in Deuteronomy 10:3 (Douay Rheims), we read:\n\"And I made an ark of setim wood And when I had hewn two tables of stone like the former, I went up into the mount, having them in my hands.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you provide the book, chapter, and verse for \"And let the first of the king's princes and nobles hold his horse, and going through the street of the city, proclaim before him and say: Thus shall he be honoured, whom the king hath a mind to honour.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The passage \"And let the first of the king's princes and nobles hold his horse, and going through the street of the city, proclaim before him and say: Thus shall he be honoured, whom the king hath a mind to honour.\" comes from Esther 6:9 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you provide the book, chapter, and verse for \"Thou shalt prepare also four golden rings, and shalt put them in the four corners of the same table over each foot.\"?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "In the book of Exodus, chapter 25, verse 26 of the Old Testament, you'll find \"Thou shalt prepare also four golden rings, and shalt put them in the four corners of the same table over each foot.\".", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where does it say \"The weak you have not strengthened, and that which was sick you have not healed, that which was broken you have not bound up, and that which was driven away you have not brought again, neither have you sought that which was lost: but you ruled over them with rigour, and with a high hand.\", in the bible?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The quote \"The weak you have not strengthened, and that which was sick you have not healed, that which was broken you have not bound up, and that which was driven away you have not brought again, neither have you sought that which was lost: but you ruled over them with rigour, and with a high hand.\" is from Ezekiel 34:4 in the Old Testament.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Where in the books does \"And the seven lean and thin kine that came up after them, and the seven thin ears that were blasted with the burning wind, are seven years of famine to come:\" show up, chapter-wise?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "You're looking at a verse from Genesis, chapter 41.\n\nHere's what the chapter says:\nGenesis Chapter 41\n1 After two years Pharao had a dream.

So Pharao awoke.\n5 He slept again, and dreamed another dream: Seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk full and fair:\n6 Then seven other ears sprung up thin and blasted,\n7 And devoured all the beauty of the former. Pharao awaked after his rest:\n8 And when morning was come, being struck with fear, he sent to all the interpreters of Egypt, and to all the wise men: and they being called for, he told them his dream, and there was not any one that could interpret it.\n9 Then at length the chief butler remembering, said: I confess my sin:\n10 The king being angry with his servants, commanded me and the chief baker to be cast into the prison of the captain of the soldiers:\n11 Where in one night both of us dreamed a dream foreboding things to come.\n12 There was there a young man a Hebrew, servant to the same captain of the soldiers: to whom we told our dreams,\n13 And we heard what afterwards the event of the thing proved to be so. For I was restored to my office: and he was hanged upon a gibbet.\n14 Forthwith at the king's command, Joseph was brought out of the prison, and they shaved him, and changing his apparel, brought him in to him.\n15 And he said to him: I have dreamed dreams, and there is no one that can expound them: Now I have heard that thou art very wise at interpreting them.\n16 Joseph answered: Without me, God shall give Pharao a prosperous answer.\n17 So Pharao told what he had dreamed: Methought I stood upon the bank of the river,\n18 And seven kine came up out of the river exceeding beautiful and full of flesh: and they grazed on green places in a marshy pasture.\n19 And behold, there followed these, other seven kine, so very ill favoured and lean, that I never saw the like in the land of Egypt:\n20 And they devoured and consumed the former,\n21 And yet gave no mark of their being full: but were as lean and ill favoured as before. I awoke, and then fell asleep again,\n22 And dreamed a dream: Seven ears of corn grew upon one stalk, full and very fair.\n23 Other seven also thin and blasted, sprung of the stock:\n24 And they devoured the beauty of the former: I told this dream to the conjecturers, and there is no man that can expound it.\n25 Joseph answered: The king's dream is one: God hath shewn to Pharao what he is about to do.\n26 The seven beautiful kine, and the seven full ears, are seven years of plenty: and both contain the same meaning of the dream.\n27 And the seven lean and thin kine that came up after them, and the seven thin ears that were blasted with the burning wind, are seven years of famine to come:\n28 Which shall be fulfilled in this order:\n29 Behold, there shall come seven years of great plenty in the whole land of Egypt:\n30 After which shall follow other seven years of so great scarcity, that all the abundance before shall be forgotten: for the famine shall consume all the land,\n31 And the greatness of the scarcity shall destroy the greatness of the plenty.\n32 And for that thou didst see the second time a dream pertaining to the same thing: it is a token of the certainty, and that the word of God cometh to pass, and is fulfilled speedily.\n33 Now therefore let the king provide a wise and industrious man, and make him ruler over the land of Egypt:\n34 That he may appoint overseers over all the countries: and gather into barns the fifth part of the fruits, during the seven fruitful years,\n35 That shall now presently ensue: and let all the corn be laid up under Pharao's hands and be reserved in the cities.\n36 And let it be in readiness, against the famine of seven years to come, which shall oppress Egypt, and the land shall not be consumed with scarcity.\n37 The counsel pleased Pharao and all his servants.\n38 And he said to them: Can we find such another man, that is full of the spirit of God?\n39 He said therefore to Joseph: Seeing God hath shewn thee all that thou hast said, can I find one wiser and one like unto thee?\n40 Thou shalt be over my house, and at the commandment of thy mouth all the people shall obey: only in the kingly throne will I be above thee.\n41 And again Pharao said to Joseph: Behold, I have appointed thee over the whole land of Egypt.\n42 And he took his ring from his own hand, and gave it into his hand: and he put upon him a robe of silk, and put a chain of gold about his neck.\n43 And he made him go up into his second chariot, the crier proclaiming that all should bow their knee before him, and that they should know he was made governor over the whole land of Egypt.\n44 And the king said to Joseph: I am Pharao; without thy commandment no man shall move hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.\n45 And he turned his name, and called him in the Egyptian tongue, The saviour of the world.

And he said to them: Go to Joseph: and do all that he shall say to you.\n56 And the famine increased daily in all the land: and Joseph opened all the barns, and sold to the Egyptians: for the famine had oppressed them also.\n57 And all provinces came into Egypt, to buy food, and to seek some relief of their want.\n", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "I need the text of Isaiah 65:20", "role": "user" }, { "content": "From Isaiah chapter 65, verse 20, Old Testament (Douay Rheims):\n\"There shall no more be an infant of days there, nor an old man that shall not fill up his days: for the child shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.\"", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Can you tell me the book and chapter for \"And she bore a son, and called his name Samson.
