Woe H188 to you, Moab! H4124 you are undone, H6 O people H5971 of Chemosh: H3645 he has given H5414 his sons H1121 that escaped, H6412 and his daughters, H1323 into captivity H7628 to Sihon H5511 king H4428 of the Amorites. H567

And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 set H5265 forward, H5265 and pitched H2583 in the plains H6160 of Moab H4124 on H5921 this side H5676 Jordan H3383 by Jericho. H3405

And Moab H4124 was sore H3966 afraid H1481 of the people, H5971 because H3588 they were many: H7227 and Moab H4124 was distressed H6973 because H3588 of the children H1121 of Israel. H3478

He sent H7971 messengers H4397 therefore to Balaam H1109 the son H1121 of Beor H1160 to Pethor, H6604 which H834 is by the river H5104 of the land H776 of the children H1121 of his people, H5971 to call H7121 him, saying, H559 Behold, H2009 there is a people H5971 come H3318 out from Egypt: H4714 behold, H2009 they cover H3680 the face H5869 of the earth, H776 and they abide H3427 over against H4136 me:

And the elders H2205 of Moab H4124 and the elders H2205 of Midian H4080 departed H3212 with the rewards of divination H7081 in their hand; H3027 and they came H935 to Balaam, H1109 and spoke H1696 to him the words H1697 of Balak. H1111

And God H430 came H935 to Balaam, H1109 and said, H559 What H4310 men H582 are these H428 with you?

Behold, H2009 there is a people H5971 come H3318 out of Egypt, H4714 which covers H3680 the face H5869 of the earth: H776 come H3212 now, H6258 curse H6895 me them; peradventure H194 I shall be able H3201 to overcome H3898 them, and drive H1644 them out.

And Balaam H1109 rose H6965 up in the morning, H1242 and said H559 to the princes H8269 of Balak, H1111 Get H3212 you into H413 your land: H776 for the LORD H3068 refuses H3985 to give H5414 me leave H5414 to go H1980 with you.

And Balak H1111 sent H7971 yet H5750 again H3254 princes, H8269 more, H7227 and more honorable H3513 than they.

For I will promote H3513 you to very H3966 great honor, H3513 and I will do H6213 whatever H3605 H834 you say H559 to me: come H3212 therefore, I pray H4994 you, curse H6895 me this H2088 people. H5971

Now H6258 therefore, I pray H4994 you, tarry H3427 you also H1571 here H2088 this night, H3915 that I may know H3045 what H4100 the LORD H3068 will say H1696 to me more. H3254

And Balaam H1109 rose H6965 up in the morning, H1242 and saddled H2280 his ass, H860 and went H3212 with the princes H8269 of Moab. H4124

And the ass H860 saw H7200 the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 standing H5324 in the way, H1870 and his sword H2719 drawn H8025 in his hand: H3027 and the ass H860 turned H5186 aside H5186 out of the way, H1870 and went H3212 into the field: H7704 and Balaam H1109 smote H5221 the ass, H860 to turn H5186 her into the way. H1870

And when the ass H860 saw H7200 the angel H4397 of the LORD, H3068 she thrust H3905 herself to the wall, H7023 and crushed H3905 Balaam's H1109 foot H7272 against H413 the wall: H7023 and he smote H5221 her again. H3254

And when the ass H860 saw H7200 the angel H4397 of the LORD, H3068 she fell H7257 down H7257 under H8478 Balaam: H1109 and Balaam's H1109 anger H639 was kindled, H2734 and he smote H5221 the ass H860 with a staff. H4731

And Balaam H1109 said H559 to the ass, H860 Because H3588 you have mocked H5953 me: I would H3863 there were a sword H2719 in my hand, H3027 for now H6258 would I kill H2026 you.

Then the LORD H3068 opened H1540 the eyes H5869 of Balaam, H1109 and he saw H7200 the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 standing H5324 in the way, H1870 and his sword H2719 drawn H8025 in his hand: H3027 and he bowed H6915 down H6915 his head, and fell H7812 flat on H5921 his face. H639

And the ass H860 saw H7200 me, and turned H5186 from me these H2088 three H7969 times: unless H194 she had turned H5186 from me, surely H3588 now H6258 also H1571 I had slain H2026 you, and saved H2421 her alive. H2421

And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 said H559 to Balaam, H1109 Go H3212 with the men: H582 but only the word H1697 that I shall speak H1696 to you, that you shall speak. H1696 So Balaam H1109 went H3212 with the princes H8269 of Balak. H1111

And Balak H1111 said H559 to Balaam, H1109 Did I not earnestly send H7971 to you to call H7121 you? why H4100 came H1980 you not to me? am I not able H3201 indeed H552 to promote H3513 you to honor? H3513

And Balaam H1109 went H3212 with Balak, H1111 and they came H935 to Kirjathhuzoth. H7155

And it came H1961 to pass on H5921 the morrow, H1242 that Balak H1111 took H3947 Balaam, H1109 and brought H5927 him up into the high H1116 places of Baal, H1168 that there H8033 he might see H7200 the utmost H7097 part of the people. H5971

And when Balaam H1109 saw H7200 that it pleased H2895 the LORD H3068 to bless H1288 Israel, H3478 he went H1980 not, as at other times, H6471 to seek H7125 for enchantments, H5172 but he set H7896 his face H6440 toward H413 the wilderness. H4057

And he took H5375 up his parable, H4912 and said, H559 Balaam H1109 the son H1121 of Beor H1160 has said, H5002 and the man H1397 whose eyes H5869 are open H8365 has said: H5002

How H4100 goodly H2896 are your tents, H168 O Jacob, H3290 and your tabernacles, H4908 O Israel! H3478

He shall pour H5140 the water H4325 out of his buckets, H1805 and his seed H2233 shall be in many H7227 waters, H4325 and his king H4428 shall be higher H7311 than Agag, H90 and his kingdom H4438 shall be exalted. H5375

He couched, H3766 he lay H7901 down H7901 as a lion, H738 and as a great H3833 lion: H3833 who H4310 shall stir H6965 him up? Blessed H1288 is he that blesses H1288 you, and cursed H779 is he that curses H779 you.

Therefore now H6258 flee H1272 you to your place: H4725 I thought H559 to promote H3513 you to great honor; H3513 but, see, H2009 the LORD H3068 has kept H4513 you back H4513 from honor. H3519

If H518 Balak H1111 would give H5414 me his house H1004 full H4393 of silver H3701 and gold, H2091 I cannot H3808 H3201 go H5674 beyond H5674 the commandment H6310 of the LORD, H3068 to do H6213 either good H2896 or H176 bad H7451 of my own mind; H3820 but what H834 the LORD H3068 said, H1696 that will I speak? H1696

And he took H5375 up his parable, H4912 and said, H559 Balaam H1109 the son H1121 of Beor H1160 has said, H5002 and the man H1397 whose eyes H5869 are open H8365 has said: H5002

I shall see H7200 him, but not now: H6258 I shall behold H7789 him, but not near: H7126 there shall come H1869 a Star H3556 out of Jacob, H3290 and a Scepter H7626 shall rise H6965 out of Israel, H3478 and shall smite H4272 the corners H6285 of Moab, H4124 and destroy H6979 all H3605 the children H1121 of Sheth. H8352

Out of Jacob H3290 shall come H3381 he that shall have dominion, H7287 and shall destroy H6 him that remains H8300 of the city. H5892

And he looked H7200 on H5921 the Kenites, H7017 and took H5375 up his parable, H4912 and said, H559 Strong H386 is your dwelling place, H4186 and you put H7760 your nest H7064 in a rock. H5553

And he took H5375 up his parable, H4912 and said, H559 Alas, H188 who H4310 shall live H2421 when God H410 does H7760 this!

And Balaam H1109 rose H6965 up, and went H3212 and returned H7725 to his place: H4725 and Balak H1111 also H1571 went H1980 his way. H1870

And the LORD H3068 said H559 to me, Distress H6696 not the Moabites, H4124 neither H408 contend H1624 with them in battle: H4421 for I will not give H5414 you of their land H776 for a possession; H3425 because H3588 I have given H5414 Ar H6144 to the children H1121 of Lot H3876 for a possession. H3425

And when you come H7126 near H7126 over H4136 against H4136 the children H1121 of Ammon, H5983 distress H6696 them not, nor H408 meddle H1624 with them: for I will not give H5414 you of the land H776 of the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 any possession; H3425 because H3588 I have given H5414 it to the children H1121 of Lot H3876 for a possession. H3425

An Ammonite H5984 or Moabite H4125 shall not enter H935 into the congregation H6951 of the LORD; H3068 even H1571 to their tenth H6224 generation H1755 shall they not enter H935 into the congregation H6951 of the LORD H3068 for ever: H5769

Now these H428 are the nations H1471 which H834 the LORD H3068 left, H5117 to prove H5254 Israel H3478 by them, even as many of Israel as had not known H3045 all H3605 the wars H4421 of Canaan; H3667

Namely, five H2568 lords H5633 of the Philistines, H6430 and all H3605 the Canaanites, H3669 and the Sidonians, H6722 and the Hivites H2340 that dwelled H3427 in mount H2022 Lebanon, H3844 from mount H2022 Baalhermon H1179 to the entering H935 in of Hamath. H2574

And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 dwelled H3427 among H7130 the Canaanites, H3669 Hittites, H2850 and Amorites, H567 and Perizzites, H6522 and Hivites, H2340 and Jebusites: H2983

And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 did H6213 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD, H3068 and forgot H7911 the LORD H3068 their God, H430 and served H5647 Baalim H1168 and the groves. H842

And when the children H1121 of Israel H3478 cried H2199 to the LORD, H3068 the LORD H3068 raised H6965 up a deliverer H3467 to the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 who delivered H3467 them, even H853 Othniel H6274 the son H1121 of Kenaz, H7073 Caleb's H3612 younger H6996 brother. H251

And the land H776 had rest H8252 forty H705 years. H8141 And Othniel H6274 the son H1121 of Kenaz H7073 died. H4191

And he gathered H622 to him the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 and Amalek, H6002 and went H3212 and smote H5221 Israel, H3478 and possessed H3423 the city H5892 of palm H8558 trees.

But when the children H1121 of Israel H3478 cried H2199 to the LORD, H3068 the LORD H3068 raised H6965 them up a deliverer, H3467 Ehud H261 the son H1121 of Gera, H1617 a Benjamite, H1145 a man H376 left handed: H334 H3027 H3225 and by him the c H1121 hildren of H3478 Isra H7971 el sent a H4503 present t H5700 o Eglon t H4428 he king o H4124 f Moab.

And he brought H7126 the present H4503 to Eglon H5700 king H4428 of Moab: H4124 and Eglon H5700 was a very H3966 fat H1277 man. H376

But he himself H1931 turned H7725 again H7725 from the quarries H6456 that were by Gilgal, H1537 and said, H559 I have a secret H5643 errand H1697 to you, O king: H4428 who said, H559 Keep silence. H2013 And all H3605 that stood H5975 by him went H3318 out from him.

And Ehud H261 put H7971 forth H7971 his left H8040 hand, H3027 and took H3947 the dagger H2719 from his right H3225 thigh, H3409 and thrust H8628 it into his belly: H990

Then Ehud H261 went H3318 forth H3318 through the porch, H4528 and shut H5462 the doors H1817 of the parlor H5944 on him, and locked H5274 them.

And they tarried H2342 till H5704 they were ashamed: H954 and, behold, H2009 he opened H6605 not the doors H1817 of the parlor; H5944 therefore they took H3947 a key, H4668 and opened H6605 them: and, behold, H2009 their lord H113 was fallen H5307 down dead H4191 on the earth. H776

And it came H1961 to pass, when he was come, H935 that he blew H8628 a trumpet H7782 in the mountain H2022 of Ephraim, H669 and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 went H3381 down H3381 with him from the mount, H2022 and he before H6440 them.

And they slew H5221 of Moab H4124 at that time H6256 about ten H6235 thousand H505 men, H376 all H3605 lusty, H8082 and all H3605 men H376 of valor; H2428 and there escaped H4422 not a man. H376

And after H310 him was Shamgar H8044 the son H1121 of Anath, H6067 which slew H5221 of the Philistines H6430 six H8337 hundred H3967 men H376 with an ox H1241 goad: H4451 and he also H1571 delivered H3467 Israel. H3478

Moreover H1571 Ruth H7327 the Moabitess, H4125 the wife H802 of Mahlon, H4248 have I purchased H7069 to be my wife, H802 to raise H6965 up the name H8034 of the dead H4191 on his inheritance, H5159 that the name H8034 of the dead H4191 be not cut H3772 off from among H5973 his brothers, H251 and from the gate H8179 of his place: H4725 you are witnesses H5707 this day. H3117

And after H310 this H3651 it came H1961 to pass that David H1732 smote H5221 the Philistines, H6430 and subdued H3665 them: and David H1732 took H3947 Methegammah H4965 out of the hand H3027 of the Philistines. H6430

David H1732 smote H5221 also Hadadezer, H1909 the son H1121 of Rehob, H7340 king H4428 of Zobah, H6678 as he went H3212 to recover H7725 his border H3027 at the river H5104 Euphrates. H6578

And when the Syrians H758 of Damascus H1834 came H935 to succor H5826 Hadadezer H1909 king H4428 of Zobah, H6678 David H1732 slew H5221 of the Syrians H758 two H8147 and twenty H6242 thousand H505 men. H376

And David H1732 took H3947 the shields H7982 of gold H2091 that were on H413 the servants H5650 of Hadadezer, H1909 and brought H935 them to Jerusalem. H3389

When Toi H8583 king H4428 of Hamath H2574 heard H8085 that David H1732 had smitten H5221 all H3605 the host H2428 of Hadadezer, H1909

Which also king H4428 David H1732 did dedicate H6942 to the LORD, H3068 with the silver H3701 and gold H2091 that he had dedicated H6942 of all H3605 nations H1471 which H834 he subdued; H3533

And David H1732 got H6213 him a name H8034 when he returned H7725 from smiting H5221 of the Syrians H758 in the valley H1516 of salt, H4417 being eighteen H8083 H6240 thousand H505 men.

And David H1732 reigned H4427 over H5921 all H3605 Israel; H3478 and David H1732 executed H6213 judgment H4941 and justice H6666 to all H3605 his people. H5971

And Zadok H6659 the son H1121 of Ahitub, H285 and Ahimelech H288 the son H1121 of Abiathar, H54 were the priests; H3548 and Seraiah H8304 was the scribe; H5608

Now Jehoram H3088 the son H1121 of Ahab H256 began to reign H4427 over H5921 Israel H3478 in Samaria H8111 the eighteenth H6240 year H8141 of Jehoshaphat H3092 king H4428 of Judah, H3063 and reigned H4427 twelve H8147 H6240 years. H8141

Nevertheless H7535 he joined H1692 to the sins H2403 of Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 of Nebat, H5028 which H834 made Israel H3478 to sin; H2398 he departed H5493 not therefrom.

But it came H1961 to pass, when Ahab H256 was dead, H4194 that the king H4428 of Moab H4124 rebelled H6586 against the king H4428 of Israel. H3478

And he went H3212 and sent H7971 to Jehoshaphat H3092 the king H4428 of Judah, H3063 saying, H559 The king H4428 of Moab H4124 has rebelled H6586 against me: will you go H3212 with me against H413 Moab H4124 to battle? H4421 And he said, H559 I will go H5927 up: I am as you are, my people H5971 as your people, H5971 and my horses H5483 as your horses. H5483

So the king H4428 of Israel H3478 went, H3212 and the king H4428 of Judah, H3063 and the king H4428 of Edom: H123 and they fetched a compass H5437 of seven H7651 days' H3117 journey: H1870 and there was no H3808 water H4325 for the host, H4264 and for the cattle H929 that followed H7272 them.

But Jehoshaphat H3092 said, H559 Is there not here H6311 a prophet H5030 of the LORD, H3068 that we may inquire H1875 of the LORD H3068 by him? And one H259 of the king H4428 of Israel's H3478 servants H5650 answered H6030 and said, H559 Here H6311 is Elisha H477 the son H1121 of Shaphat, H8202 which H834 poured H3332 water H4325 on H5921 the hands H3027 of Elijah. H452

And Elisha H477 said H559 to the king H4428 of Israel, H3478 What H4100 have I to do with you? get H3212 you to the prophets H5030 of your father, H1 and to the prophets H5030 of your mother. H517 And the king H4428 of Israel H3478 said H559 to him, No: H408 for the LORD H3068 has called H7121 these H428 three H7969 kings H4428 together, to deliver H5414 them into the hand H3027 of Moab. H4124

But now H6258 bring H3947 me a minstrel. H5059 And it came H1961 to pass, when the minstrel H5059 played, H5059 that the hand H3027 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 on him.

For thus H3541 said H559 the LORD, H3068 You shall not see H7200 wind, H7307 neither H3808 shall you see H7200 rain; H1653 yet that valley H5158 shall be filled H4390 with water, H4325 that you may drink, H8354 both you, and your cattle, H4735 and your beasts. H929

And you shall smite H5221 every H3605 fenced H4013 city, H5892 and every H3605 choice H4005 city, H5892 and shall fell H5307 every H3605 good H2896 tree, H6086 and stop H5640 all H3605 wells H4599 of water, H4325 and mar H3510 every H3605 good H2896 piece H2513 of land with stones. H68

And when all H3605 the Moabites H4124 heard H8085 that the kings H4428 were come H5927 up to fight H3898 against them, they gathered H6817 all H3605 that were able H2296 to put H2296 on armor, H2290 and upward, H4605 and stood H5975 in the border. H1366

And they said, H559 This H2088 is blood: H1818 the kings H4428 are surely slain, H2717 and they have smitten H5221 one H376 another: H7453 now H6258 therefore, Moab, H4124 to the spoil. H7998

And they beat H2040 down H2040 the cities, H5892 and on every H3605 good H2896 piece H2513 of land cast H7993 every man H376 his stone, H68 and filled H4390 it; and they stopped H5640 all H3605 the wells H4599 of water, H4325 and felled H5307 all H3605 the good H2896 trees: H6086 only in Kirharaseth H7025 left H7604 they the stones H68 thereof; however, the slingers H7051 went H5437 about H5437 it, and smote H5221 it.

Then he took H3947 his oldest H1060 son H1121 that should have reigned H4427 in his stead, H8478 and offered H5927 him for a burnt H5930 offering on the wall. H2346 And there was great H1419 indignation H7110 against H5921 Israel: H3478 and they departed H5265 from him, and returned H7725 to their own land. H776
